Look at this gpu 
Wheres #pets 
What’s the best LED lights? I don’t have any and I got 30 dollars. What’s the best one to get?
just LEDs? Not RGB strips? What size? Does it need to be controlled by a specific software suite?
I mean RGB strips
I prefer something bright and has no visible leds
With a controller that can even control brightness
Really depends on what you're looking for in the end. If you just want simple, controllable lighting and your motherboard has a 3/4/5pin, you don't need to worry about getting something branded, just some $3 ebay or amazon 5050 or 3258 strips will do
If you want one of those fancy per-game systems where your fans flash red when you die... can't help there
Thanks
throwback to when cards used to look like this
Hm
Now they're huge
Initially doesn't seem like an improvement, really
Shouldn't we get more performance and less power use in the same size?
But then I see phones...
that's what I was thinking
Same thought with CPUs
if we can pack so much into stuff like phone gpu's why not do that for pc's too?
They were so small and 80mm fans were enough, now people buy NH-D15s and Grand Macho RTs to cool their CPU
Doesn't need to be phone levels of small, would like to keep upgradeability
But still
well take the intel nuc for instance
even though it's small you can upgrade most parts
so my idea is keep this small form factor and just make the parts smaller
parts are getting smaller but also intel is pushing 5ghz cpus
u need a lot of cooling for that
Smaller, but still seems less efficient
Intel's 80486 CPUs used up to 6w of power
Sure 65w CPUs are much more powerful and efficient
But why does the desktop space no longer have such small and low power parts
Why is it now phones only?
efficiency goes downhill when u push a chip to the limit, remember how old intel K cpus used to OC from 3.5 to 4.8 or some crazy numbers?
I guess they figured that if you wanted a more portable system you would buy something like a surface from the start instead of having a tower
i think that question answered itself, because powerful phones exist
most people that buys a pc is for heavy work or gaming, these guys does not care about parts size
if u want something small just get a laptop
something I've always wondered is if laptops can have dedicated cards and other mobile parts then why can't they use this same tech for towers?
Nobody cares that the old was smaller and used much less power
And that's always it
If customers don't care, why spend an extra 20 cents in production making things a tiny bit smaller

Dies are small enough
that concept been struggling for years
and it's slowly dying now
what a shame honestly
asus made a laptop that u can plug a gpu on but that gpu costs as much as the laptop
Very portable amiright
macs with thunderbolt ports also support egpu (provided they run mojave or newer)
eGPU box costs are just as bad
$300 for just the box, on top of needing an expensive laptop AND the GPU
By then you're spending $3000
Might as well buy a desktop, a desk, three monitors, repaint your house walls
pay for college and get married
If you're buying a laptop, cap it at like 900. Any more than that, you're better off with a desktop
Why does the small case for the external gpu cost three times as much as a high end regular desktop case
because it has things like power supply and a pcp
My laptop was like $1300. Price is completely irrelevant the only reason people by laptops is for portability not price
who knew it included drugs? 
Lol
Mine was $800 used
I want those laptop shells for phones to get cheaper
My desktop is what I use now but the laptop worked well before the world, ya know, stood still and I actually used it on the go
Once I was stuck in the house I might as well buy a desk setup
I just haven't got the time or money to source parts to make my own setup
Display, usb-c multi port, and battery in a a laptop-shaped casing
just buy a samsung phone that has that nox or something
A lot of phones have desktop modes hut you need 3-4 clunky adapters and dongles
rip samsung dex
Just shove that in a laptop case with a screen and a battery
Easy money, and its lighter than many existing laptops
there are monitors with batteries that even has ports to plug things
And you get better GPU performance from a phone than most sub-$700 laptops anyways
$900 for Intel integrated, ugh
that's the problem I had when laptop searching, most manufacturers always cheaped out on something
that's where AMD enters the chat
Desktop mode for what
Sup nubs
intel imagine
a piece of alluminium with some IO and a (fan)?
cuz there's no music bot
Is the RTX 2060 from Asus ROG still a good graphics card?
Hy guys can someone help me?
I installed new windows on my pc and now after the windows loading icon is gone my monitor shuts of and stays like that, anyone knows why?
Monitor works while im in bios
What is considered decent price for that?
Does the whole PC shut off or only the monitor?
If the PC shuts off it could be a power supply damage
I jsut realized, my resolution as default is too big for monitor
It changed since i reinstalled windows, but now i dont know how to lower it
I have a square 17 inch monitor and default res is over 1900x----
Whats the native resolution?
So it isnt a Full HD monitor right?
What did you even change
Wiped the pc clean and installed new windows
So the resolution went to default and that default is too much for my monitor
Did you change it in Windows itself?
Change the settings in the monitor not in windows

Does anyone know why the fuck NFS rivals always crashes when going online in the xbox one?
Ping me when answering
Codes and stuff
anyone knows a fix for this?, the screen when booting looks very small, same for grub, but no when i'm logged in, it's very annoying cuz there are some options and i can't see them completely, it's virtual box btw
GRUB2 might have some config files you can access once you're logged in
if not, I find rEFInd to be a good alternative boot manager, and I think it works in legacy mode as well
and you can set a custom resolution there, though it usually won't jump up to 1080p or something, it will scale better
Though in Virtualbox, I think VMs not booting in UEFI mode will always start out tiny anyways
worth installing the OS in UEFI mode instead of legacy and trying rEFInd in it though. Can always restore an older snapshot
mm, ok, i realized that the vm is not in uefi, so checking the checkbox might work?
yes, though I don't know if you'll need to reinstall your OS or not
too many factors there. If it fails, then you will need a reinstall more than likely
well, kinda worked, the screen is more bigger yes, but, now throwed me to shell, so it only showed me the mapping table, i was get used to use "Fs0" or "fs1" to boot up, but only shows me "blk" devices like this and i'm unable to use them
any arch users here?
sometimes™️
usually when I've broken something and need to recover it 
I once deleted that something 34 or something
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda
finally, after 9 hours of coding, I finally finished coding the super simple GUI tic tac toe game
"Do it, it's a great way to learn python" they said
"It should be easy" they said
macos
why does every version have completely different tutorials
and why am I needing tutorials to use an OS
why doesn't "get info" just give me the actual file path
what was gained by hiding the path to a file
and making some pretty menu instead of just listing it
masochist OS
xubuntu works perfectly
windows works perfectly
android works perfectly
freebsd works perfectly
macsochist 
but really you can turn on the option to show the path in the title bar
thanks for the tips
it won't change my hatred for that not being default
but I thank you my friend
defaults write com.apple.finder _FXShowPosixPathInTitle -bool YES
Who do I contact to get that to be the default always?
can't always mess with folks' settings on their own systems
Tim Cook, can he do it?
while you're at it ask him to make command + tab actually work
I actually got something done in Python today 🙂
no, its not base64, its 100% original and mine
It's 4:18 am and I've already made over 110 git commits, I'm starting to think I may have done a bit too much today 
it's 6:19 AM here, my very anxious self couldn't rest without actually debugging the game, and... that took another hour
god... how am I gonna sleep now
if i get past 1am im basically committed to staying awake the rest of the day because if i sleep i wont get up in time
I sleep at 8 AM, wake up at 12 PM, attend my lessons, get back home at 5 PM, take a 2 hours nap, wake up again, do my homework, take a 3 hours nap, wake up at 1~2 AM, and stay up coding till 8 AM
put that cycle in a while True: loop
I am thinking about going through the entire official python tutorial on python docs
great, less sleep for me
@brave field is spending 205 usd on a refurbished 1660 super worth it?
mm, yeah
For some reason my parents wont let me get it even though this is probably the lowest price I’ll ever see
NZXT also has a decent reputation
If you're unable to get it further, there should be something around April to June
3050 ti or GTX 17 series or something
since Nvidia is also going to start producing RTX 2060/S again, maybe those will be a bit cheaper
assuming all of the current supply issues fix themselves quickly
Hopefully
The thing is it will be out of stock for at least 6 months
Unless i use a bot
you'll have a better chance at something that comes in stock every few days vs something no longer in production
True
Yoooo there is a coding channel awesome
can i show yall something i coded
its not working
Relatable
Great
How do I activate my windows
But my uncle lost the activation code
How
sign in on a new user profile in Windows and it'll be applied automatically if its linked
What about a new Microsoft account
a brand new account wouldn't have the license you already redeemed linked to it
you need a new license, either from buying, inheriting from an OEM PC for the few that let you do that, or converting a windows 7/8 key
the third is probably the cheapest and easiest
Also I don't have money
any old PC with a license sticker on it will do
some scrapyards even let you take pictures of the stickers in exchange for a dime
No old PC's either
Only PC in my house is mine
Plus I think there's no scrapyard a near me
Those licence stickers actually work? Never worked back in the vista days for me :/
@jovial tide can't sell here
@fervent granite OEM licences, one per install for earlier windows
I think for XP and Vista, its just one per install, at least
For 7 and 8 I think its as many installs on one system as long as you don't have something like 3 Windows installs on the same PC
but 7 and 8 keys typed into 10 gives you a digital license that ties to a M$ account that you can use on one install at a time as well
Is it only for one pc?
I think the account-linked is just one install at a time
so you miiiight not be covered if you dualboot on a system
but that for OEM keys
a standard one can be trasferred easily
at least on my last windows pc buy it had the sticker but the code wasn't there
it came with windows 8, so I had no choice but to activate it via other means 
There's something newer PCs have
no clue how they're doing it, but its like the key is stored on a partition without a letter, or some modification to the UEFI, something strange
but you can reinstall, never connect to the internet, and be activated
and you can only get the characters for your key through powershell commands or a third party tool
imo it would've been easier to just keep the code on the sticker
because that creates a problem for when you replace the drive or when it dies, like mine
convenience for power users is not a priority, unfortunately
Don't replace your own drives, buy a new system!
maybe having to have individual and separate printing for each sticker is harder
yeah lemme just drop another $800 
verifying paper and the activation info match is probably more work
Need to research the OOBE process OEMs use too, maybe that has useful info
smh john
You're supposed to have one component of your system fail, claim the entire thing is broken, and drop $800, yes!
Hey that's exactly what happened to me when I contacted their shitty customer support !
Its not poor customer support, they're just looking to support different customers

what happens when you delete that system32 or something
nothing special
Ur games won’t run
windows won't be able to boot is all it does 
well shit
past me was a fucking idiot then
Oh no
Oh no.
.....
lost all my games
and homework
it doesn't destroy your user data though, so if you boot into another os you can recover it
and i didnt recover

More like u are
no
lmao
i like to act stupid to see peoples reactions
I mean the system32 joke isn't really funny anyway, it's overused
and i actually deleted it once
the thing is you can't delete them while booted into the system because they're in use
if it were linux or macos (somewhat) then yeah ur ded 
good thing it was windows
and i also lost all my homework and textbooks
but i dont go to that school anymore so hah
I keep backups anyway
actually easier than ever because now I can actually use time machine instead of relying on google drive/onedrive
my friend once deleted my system32
and i lost all my games
so i broke both his hands and deleted his hentai stash
sudo rm -rf /
System32 joke is indeed overused
But the alternative is sysWOW64 which is less problematic when deleted
It doesn't really have any competition.
still broke my friends hands
Doesn't sound very friendly
well after that he deleted everything
noob
they should've done this ages ago let's be honest
There should be a backup system 32 file, since some idiots accidentally delete files to have more storage, or it should at least give you a warning that this file is vital for the computer
Who even does this lol
@frosty vortex nope
@hollow bridge Yeah, its strange that Windows XP had it but newer versions don't.
Its one of those situations where I think having a toggle or needing you to click something x amount of times to access it isn't a bad compromise
Doesn't make things noticeably harder for power users while keeping it away from people who have no idea what they're doing
Windows XP was legendary
7 and XP were. Now 7 is meeting its end.

hey first time in this channel do u hack here?
me*t
@brave field why i have never heard of these and they're selling them here
Well the Pro line and half the APUs never got marketing
them selling it though, no clue
I want a 4750G still
all the 3000 APUs are 12nm though, no?
probably similar to 3400G
slightly slower it seems, but with AMD memory guard and a security co-processor
maybe something like Microsoft pluton? Some stronger version of DASH/AMT?

I think I still have my java gui laying around somewhere, it doesn't do anything it just looks like it does stuff :|
AP Computer Science is hard, taking the AP Exam in May, and I only know the basic stuff from java. Do y'all have any tips or websites I can use to study?
What are the best true wireless earbuds? (preferably 150€ or less). I've been looking for a while now and can't find any good ones.
Anyone got a ps4 pro?
Is it worth upgrading to an ssd and if so does it need to be a 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch?
@jovial tide ssd makes everything better but i dont think you will get the full potential of ssd
You can only fit 2.5 inside it
@next birch that's a complex topic and really hard to decide, it depends on what u want but take a look at what anker sound core l,
I saw a good earbuds with decent sound cancellation that they offer.
I had a look at Liberty air 2 pros and i think i'll get them, thanks.
I’ve already got an ssd in my original ps4 but it kinda got fucked and don’t have ssd speed. Ps4 pro cause my dad won’t get me a pc or ps5 this year
And pro would be better cause that’s the latest
Someone fucked up while escaping the double quotes 
Lol
i try to create a new account i have this puzzel verification but i dont understand it can anyone help me?
@jovial tide sure show me

reminds me of the days before google recaptcha was a thing and everyone used their own verification thing

too lazy to get my graphing calc out, poor thing has been gathering dust since march
What happened to Microsoft
why when I search any sort of tech support thread, its people lost and confused, and these stupid errors are always here
what happened to error codes, or verbose errors with the path to the file that had the issue
"There was a problem." is the least useful you could be
might as well not even say anything
sometimes even those don't work 
Give IT people a raise oh, wait for me to get a job in IT first
one time I was stuck in the "repairing pc" thing and said the log was stored somewhere but when I checked it was empty :/
How do you troubleshot "we had a problem, oops?"
the good ol' days
I wish we still had these errors
"guys, I think my Windows 10 install has a problem, can someone help me fix?"
I thought the new ones gave you a qr code thing
well, BSODs, yeah
but Microsoft's apps don't anymore
the default built-in windows apps, both the UWP and the Win32 versions don't have error messages anymore
pretty sure uwp's being retried yeah?
no?
they want it to be the standard
Everything on the Xbox consoles are UWP, Hololens is UWP, Mixed Reality software
They even tried multiple times to force people to use it
Like making Microsoft.Gaming.Input, some D3D12 functions, and access to notifications a UWP exclusive
must've been some old article :/
those all failed though, win32 can use them
Well, the did say "UWP is not the future of Windows apps"
only because of those three things above
but they're still pushing it, their plan to make stuff exclusive to it was just hated by every corner of the planet
well uwp is necessary for xbox though
It didn't have to be though
they could've chose something else really, or developed something new like they did in the past
oh, and they made 100% compatibility with UWP for 10X as well
it was kind of expected though

you saw nothing
imagine pulling a samsung 
samsungzon
their storage is pretty dope too ngl
wish people didn't inflate samsung's reputation so much
their SSD prices are still too high imo
as soon as people started spamming "yeah, sure, that one is faster with a longer warranty, but Samsung is a known brand!" the 850 and 860 line shot up $20
I don't even think it's worth it tbh
their portable ssd's are something else though, I would've bought one but amazon prices are crazy inconsistent
their speeds are pretty good, at least the newer ones like the t7 series which are like 1gb/s according to amazon last I checked
it would work well for me because it's small and doesn't need external power
What portable SSDs would need external power?
o

I didn't know you didn't know so I didn't know
well I didn't know you didn't know that I didn't know so it works out ig

How the hell do I delete family users on windows 10
@fervent granite please help me
maybe this? haven't used windows in a while
I already figured it out but thanks
How the fuck do I make this laptop go any fucking faster
Ohhh no the fan is a bit loud
I would do a fresh install of windows enterprise or education imo
Shit this thing needs to be cleaned
the retail versions are filled with bloatware and unnecessary services
It's not even my laptop, till February
It's my moms
And she also got a new laptop for herself
That's why I'm getting this one
I don't understand why she could've just transferred all her fucking shit onto the new one and let me get this one ready for school and shit
Seriously
This woman can't think most of the time
Also I found out why this thing is so slow and is making a sickening noise
242 GB worth of music
I wouldn't go that far, some people just aren't as computer literate 
She works as a telesales rep for royal canin
Literally she is required to have computer knowledge
But still
242 FUCKING GIGABYTES OF MUSIC IS MAKING THIS THING SLOW
the basics sure but nothing advanced like knowing how to use scripts to de-bloat windows or even knowing the kind of shit ms bundles into windows these days
doubtful
Also she uses McAfee
the best antivirus is you (with the help of windows defender)
It also overhears
In 20 seconds of being active
I think this laptop won't work for school
why not?
It heats pretty quickly and if this idiot doesn't move all her stuff onto her other laptop, it will basically be as slow as me trying to play doom eternal and cyberpunk at the same time on the highest settings of graphics
Even pressing the windows key takes like 10 seconds to pop up
well the computer probably has its limits, it's probably long overdue for a refresh anyway
It's a laptop
and those files are probably not causing the issue, it's probably junk running in the background
Is McAfee good?
No?
It's not good
malwarebytes is my go-to but I only use to scan suspicious files
I don't like it running in the background all the time
for reference, here's wha I have on my windows 7 vm:
Hell, here's my windows 10 partition:
Yea I don't speak advanced computer talk
laptops especially always come bundled with shit so I always make sure to delete that stuff (even though it doesn't apply to me anyway
)
basically what I'm trying to get at is windows will become slow depending on what you have on your system
if you have junk like hp help, pre-installed uwp apps, mcafee or other stuff then yeah it's bound to be slow
My pc isn't slow and there's tons of shit on there
One question that isn't related to this talk right now
How the fuck do I keep my themes permanently
And I mean like the mouse cursor and all that
¯_(ツ)_/¯
-_-
I use a mac so I don't know
even back when I used windows I didn't mess with my cursor too much, I just set it on the black classic theme
Why a mac
I've got 578 gb free on my external drive 
Cool
Now 25.7 free
My brain is telling me to go check my new laptop for steam and and the user
But I'm scared my mom will find me on it
@PoopyJohn#8086 what should I do
Does anyone know what a good game engine to use? I gotta make a decision about what job I wanna do when I am older and I wanna try and become a game dev. Any suggestions?
Maybe unreal engine?
Thanks
I said maybe
I don't know if it's good
It's just that idk what can run on a 7 year old laptop lmao
I think Unity is another one
Try those 2 and see what's better
Thanks for the help!
No prob bob
I wonder what will happen if you take away a texture file from a game then play it?
It would probably replace it with a missing texture one
What about a character file
Like taking away, uhmm let's say Ryu from ultimate marvel vs Capcom 3
Hmm
It might just become a gray entity
Or something else
Damn
Now I am curious
Imma try it
Could you send me the results?
I cant
Oof
Because I don't know where the character file is located
It would probably be way down the list of files
There's a chr file
That might be it
How about I delete the WMV file and open up the game
Just make sure that you have a back up
I did
It just loops the Marvel logo and then exits out
Vr*
What
Sorry I have autocorrect on
I'll put an attack on titan 2 WMV in the file
I meant vr game not great lmao
Yea
How much?
WAIT WHAT THE FU-
Damn it
It didn't work
Over here it’s around 50-£60
Let me see
?
What do you use
I meant currency
European pound or Egyptian pound
Wait there's an Egyptian pound?
Fuck this place
Wdym?
Let me see
Doom eternal 900 rand
Skyrim 620 rand
Cyberpunk is 800 rand
And the Masterchef collection is 690
69 pog
-__-
Lmao

if it's jailbroken you could sideload them
isn't it on steam?
I don't have 689 rand

Do you have access to $1 gamepass deal?
I don't use dollars
I don't use the app
everything not USD, Euro, GBP, AUD, or CAD has to be converted but it might be a good alternative if you decide to try the app someday
not having regional pricing for Halo on steam sucks
1 dollar is 16 rand
Valve's recommended regional price is 48 rand, interesting
Yea if I do end up getting halo 3 by its own id also need the collection
Which in itself is 690 rand
And each game is about 79 rand
But the odst is 42
👀
will need to cancel the subscription after the first month
buuuuut, an option, maybe? There's also 3 months of ultimate for the same price per month, but you still have to cancel after
So that means that this whole masterchief collection is a fucking ripoff because the 5 79 rand games combined is a total of 395 rand and the odst is 42 which means that those 6 games together is 437 rand
But the whole collection is 690 rand
WHAT A FUCKING RIPOFF
THATS AN EXTRA 253 RAND ADDED
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK VALVE
publisher-set prices
hm, people are saying you can buy the individual game and run it still even though steam will complain and say you need the whole collection
but that doesn't sound very reliable
Considering there's no step by step tutorials or videos of people doing that linked every time someone says that
eh does anyone know how i can get motion blur on my cursor?
anyone know if you can update bios with a 3600
and if a 3600 with a 3060ti or 3080 is bad
So has anyone had a dp port on their graphics card not pick up a display before?
@lilac fable You can update a board bios with a 3600 if the bios version the board comes with supports the 3600
like if the board even takes a 3600?
The board will have to already support the 3600 if you want to update the BIOS using a 3600
define support
support being the BIOS update
if you're looking to use Ryzen 5000, you can use a 3600 to update the BIOS to support 5000. If you want to use your 3600, you need to already have the board updated or will need to use a Ryzen 2000 CPU to update it first
A 3600 can't be used to install the update to support the 3600, because its not supported if it lacks the update.
man I have horrible explanation skills
Sorry man
if you post the mobo model I can see if its likely to come with the update or has an alternative update means like a BIOS flash button
depends on your workload. For games, that's fine really, might be a bit better on your budget to go for a 10400/f if the 3600 is above $200 or so
lmao i get warned for my name like wtf
The name just has to be typeable on a keyboard and pingable
if not it changes automatically.
Alt 4

Does anyone participate in contests conducted by platforms like codechef or codeforces?
Online*
@jagged lark it's decent for light gaming but do more research
ideally you would want a graphics card
a good graphics card
Like what Diana said, it's alright. seems a bit much for something that doesnt have a gpu or decent ram. so perfect for light gaming and office work.
Okay lemme explain an guy hacked me and link his rockstar games account with my gta from epic games, but how do I unlink my gta from his rockstar game account ?
hacked
#gta-tech-support has you covered, maybe
sign in on socialclub and go to settings, unlink X account service, relink yours
1 sec, i'll sign in and try better
Okay
Okay
2. Click your picture in the top Right Corner
3. Click Settings
4. You will now be on a page that shows your profile with tabs at the top, 3rd option is Linked Accounts
5. Here you can see what you have linked and it has a button that says Unlink under the services
@tardy stone are you doing it from your phone or computer?
Computer
alright, should be the same then
if you see the other persons info you should send it here
@tardy stone i contacted rockstar once to unlink a steam account but u should have something else linked like a google account before contacting them
U just go to support and explain to them briefly
Is anyone good on making crew emblems?

ah, I just noticed the code I wrote in my project is obnoxiously terrible and unreadable, but it works
does it matter anyway? does a CS teacher only care if the program works or they care about code readability as well?
it really depends on what your teacher looks for, but in my experience they also cared if I could explain my code
but yeah I guess code legibility is important probably just as a good practise
I can explain my code because I am the one who wrote it, I know what everything in it does
but no one else will be able to understand it because they won't know what I am really trying to do
maybe you should work on that ig?
If I ever get a job as a programmer I am pretty sure my code will considered be a hate-crime against debuggers
Debug your own code
@night timber TBH If you really consider working as a programmer then you have to know one thing for sure: 99.999% of the projects is done by teams and not by single software developer. A good team will always make a code review of your work, it will be tested for bugs, and checked for accordance to the functional requirements, before your code gets approved to be introduced to the production code. This means that before your code will be read by machine, it will be read by people first. So if you wanna work in a good team and do awesome projects, it's good to learn how to make your code clean and correctly working. Clean code means that the code is readable by human in a way that it explains itself when you read it. It's hard to achieve but worth going towards it.
Which website should I go to so that I can learn how to code cleanly
Ooh dude xD there are many of them
It's 2.30AM here lol
But the first thing I know for sure
it's 3:34 AM here and I am still working on my project
been coding for almost 5 hours straight, no fucking breaks
is it a general book or it focuses on a specific programming language?
It shows you examples in Java but the rules are mostly applicable to every single language
Some languages though, have some specific variants of those rules as they have for example specific syntax
Like PHP
I mean... for now I just follow the PEP8 standard and try to use clever ways to shorten my code, but I don't know if that's enough to make it readable
What's pep8 standard?
Oh ok python is a good example of specific language
It has a syntax based on line indentation
Not on brackets like Java
But, other rules apply perfectly in python
It's a standard for coding with python, when you follow the standard you separate functions with 2 spaces up and down for example
right now I am still learning the basics so it'd really help me out if I focus on python... and only python...
what do you recommend me to read that's python-related?
Dude I'm telling you that these rules apply to all languages
But for the school project I'd say it's more important that the code works properly and is readable enough to be explained
hmmm, alright, I'll add the book to my list
If you really wanna get better this book will help you
is there a website or AI or any such thing that can review my code and tell me if it's readable to other people or not?
the problem is, I AM the only one here to read my own code before I send it
my biggest fear is that my code may look good to me but may be unreadable to others
Oh why fear about that
idk
At worst, you will know what should you do better 😎
Which is good!
Teacher should be there to help you
If he's only expecting and not helping - IMO he should find other job
Otherwise, he should find some time for you and let you know what to do to make it better
he's here to help me yes, but it's not about that
Other thing is, teacher might not know a thing about real work in software companies
So don't think this is end of the world when you do something not perfect
It may be that your teacher tells you it's okay and a month later you will find a better solution
Give your code to your friends who also code
I bet you aren't the only one who is doing a project
Offer a code review to them and vice versa
I said it's not about that because... yes... I'll be sending the project to my teacher, but I am not learning python for him, I am learning python to improve my programming skills to land a job in the future
so my teacher's opinion is not exactly top priority here
That's awesome dude
what'd be my top priority is how readable my code is to a co-worker
how do I get a co-worker to read my code rn lol
Think about a simple project with one of your friends
(now - might not be possible but you shouldn't worry)
I am the most advanced among all my friends, and we're all bad at programming, so it won't matter here either
The book I advised you will teach you one thing at the beginning
Name of the variable or function MATTERS
it is there on purpose
do you understand python? I'd really like to hear your opinion about my coding
I'll send it to you in the DM
I could look at it tomorrow
lol
I mean... c'mon... 30 lines of code would go over 2000 characters, I'll send it to you in a .txt as discord says
You can use pastebin
pastebin, hmm
A website where you can put some text
Pastebin.com is the number one paste tool since 2002. Pastebin is a website where you can store text online for a set period of time.
it's a basic contact book that gives you the ability to search in it (unfinished)
I didn't even code in the ability to store stuff on the PC in json format yet, still testing it
You don't know it yet but one of the rules of clean code is proper indentation - and in Python you are somewhat forced to do it properly
ye, I am following PEP8 to do it properly
I ll look on that tomorrow, I'm tired as F today lol
it's really simple, but ye, I understand
But first look didn't scare me 😎 👍
basically... I made separated everything to functions
so... when it's time to execute the code, it'll take you to a function, and that function will take you to another function, and that one will take you to another
and it goes on
good to know
2nd rule of clean code - the shorter the function is, the better
Basically, function should serve a single purpose only ideally
I separated them to 6 small functions instead of 3 big ones
If it does too much - should be separated
Ye I saw that
I ll help u out tomorrow
Gtg cya
good night
Gn
guys talking about keeping functions short, im over here keeping code sloppier than sloppy joes with no joes
my code is sloppy joes inside joes with no sloppy inside def sloppy with no joes inside class catastrophes
how can i switch my ifg from xbox to ps? i have now got a ps5
Not even close to the right channel.
maybe someday in the future, but certainly not now
also love how they didn't take any action until GN complained
maybe third time's the charm?
sup y'all i have a phillips SPK 8404 and i was wondering if i can change out the switches
i have a cherry mx blue switch now
thanks buckos
Ooooo technology and coding
Technology!
why does my discord beep so much
Is there a way to batch update virtual environments in PyCharm when updating to a newer version of Python? I manually went through and changed everything this time, but knowledge for the future would be super useful 🙂
@gaunt granite I'm actually interested in this myself because I don't have this issue with anything in JS which is why it's a better language 😉 Nah idk never used Py so can't diss it.
i dont use pycharm
with open('filter.txt', 'r') as f:
global badwords
words = f.read()
badwords = words.split()
print(words + '1')
print(badwords)
@commands.Cog.listener()
async def on_message(self, message):
for words in badwords:
if words in message.content:
await message.delete()
await message.channel.send(f"Don't say that!")
I have a text file with the words "badwordx" and "sadwordx" on their own separate lines. Why does discord return a "404 not found: unknown message" when I type badwordx in a channel, but not sadwordx?
If I type the first line of filter.txt in a channel, there is always an unknown message error, but no error if I type the second or other lines.
are you using more than one bad word in a single message?
for example if badwords is ['abcd', 'abc'] and you type "abcde" then python will find abcd, delete the message, then find abc and try to delete it again
forgot that happens
I added "wow" and "ow" in two different lines when I started testing it the second time, so my explanation was kinda useless without including that 
Thank you so much man ❤️
This phone needs a new screen

i cant link to pc?
Oof
click on your profile picture at the bottom left and select do not disturb (doing this will pretty much stop notifications completely), there will still be the little 1 on the discord app but it wont play a sound or show a pop up(when you get @'d)
OR
go through notification settings on all the server you are in, most of the time they default to pretty good settings but sometimes it can cause problems
Thanks
No

My teacher told me to use python but I used javascript 
Instead of using JavaScript use java to assert dominance
My teacher told me to be sensible but I wasnt
😦
Or use both
🙂

A snipet of code from my MC Plugin, how would you guys loop in Python then, I'm actually curious.
If the previous Devs on my project didn't use node I would've had the chance to go with python 
You could just be a savage and rewrite the whole thing?
Well, I'm told to stick with nodejs, so can't do much about it. Also I'm a new recruit so they wouldn't trust me with an entire codebase change
Ahhhh XD
adj = ["red", "big", "tasty"]
fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
for x in adj:
for y in fruits:
print(x, y)
Why is that so much easier 
it still amazes me that minecraft's source code looks like that
It's actually changed for the better since the API 1.13 material updates, and different methods.
They've specified what your calling more efficiently and stuff now
They neglected InventoryType.WORKBENCH though 😦
If you want it working without any errors on clicking air, outside the inventory bar and stuff. It's so fucking more than any other inventory type.
@cyan sapphire you using forge or fabric?
SpigotAPI.
So neither.
Server sided plugins not mods.
got confused with mods
i cant play without them
and it's just horrible
vanilla is so boring now
Don't get me wrong once GTAO Modded releases I'll be on it 24/7
im the minecraft equivalent of a factorio player
🤣
I'll play for 28 hours a day because the factory must grow
and a day by my definition depends on my sleep schedule so 28 hour days are very possible 
🤣
How many hours you got in your day?
28.5 hours. The other .5 is for sleep and a cup of tea. (that's what I'm picturing is your reply)

it varies
anywhere from about 12 to 72
That is a long as day 🤣
itb is
ive only had a few 72s
average is around 24 because i do need to do school stuff
but I do quite a bit either way
I need to focus on getting my college sorted but I just can't focus on it whilst I'm at home.
I see my intellij or vsc and just say "Only for twenty minutes"
Why are my PC fans so damn loud
You learn something new every day @gaunt granite 🙂
What indentation style does your project use?
To prevent a bot from responding to itself, do I need to add these lines under every single commands.Cog.listener?
if message.author == self.bot.user:
return
Ermmm
I think its
if (message.author.bot) return;
try that.
I know that's JavaScript, I would imagine that line of code would be the same tho.
pycharm seems to hate it
Ow pycharm?
gimmie 2 seconds
@client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.author == client.user:
return
if message.content.startswith("Hello"):
await message.channel.send("Hi it is me KEVIN")
The thing I posted earlier works but I thought there would be some sort of one-line solution instead of copying and pasting it under every listener
ew outdated code
client.event is from uh... 2017 discord.py
I mean it works
but bot.event does everything client can do plus more
and it doesn't work in cogs at all
Have to use @commands.Cog.listener now

client.user becomes self.bot.user in a cog
I would recommend using that for now until you find an alternative.
I'm not sure, I've never worked with Python in my life to be honest with you. I'd recommend just looking through the documentation.
I should just learn the language, what is this thing that appears yellow-ish and start with @?
My issue really is
I know more discord.py than I know Python
That's an issue 🤣
I was thinking there would be some sort of alternative to using the if message.author thing, since there's a @commands.has_role I use for commands
but I can't even look it up in the docs because I don't know what its called
I'm sending you a discord link; if that's okay? in dms.
feel stupid making the bot first through trial and error and learning the language after
yes, it is okay
do send
Sent; it's around 10k developers in there. I'm sure one will be able to assist you.
Yo does anyone know a good file zip program
Use Winrar
Ight thank you
Anyone looking to get into programming with friends, I'd recommend reading this. Most projects require you to use ALLMAN https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indentation_style
In computer programming, an indentation style is a convention governing the indentation of blocks of code to convey program structure. This article largely addresses the free-form languages, such as C and its descendants, but can be (and often is) applied to most other programming languages (especially those in the curly bracket family), where w...
I'd recommend the first one with all my heart.
1) Winzip.
2) WinRAR.
3) 7-Zip.
4) Zip Archiver.
5) PeaZip.
Windows should really included a native utility to work with compressed files other than zip smh
but also 7zip > winrar
true

WHY ARE MY PC FANS SO LOUD
Thank you
Chin up. You'll get one eventually. Took me a very long time too. Patience is key
Thanks and have fun with it
Second time I asked
@jovial tide we can try to help if you elaborate or provide more details
Otherwise throw it in the trash
It's just loud
Like a plane turbine loud
Yea I'm not throwing my whole pc in the trash

My pcs leds are blue
So informative
They are probably loud because my pcs components are old
First thing u need to do is installing hwinfo
Check your temps and fans speeds
After that u procced
Not opening my pc tho

I'm not making that mistake again
@shell aspen I got my 3060 ti 2 months ago. Too bad it bottlenecks my ryzen 5 2400g 😦
feels like i’m playing on a gtx 1660 sometimes
not even
Me still on an actual 1660 
My 2600 bottlenecks too haha
Always a bottleneck somewhere, unavoidable
But better hardware than software, at least making things better is in your own hands
Nothing like a slow app that's not bottlenecked by singlecore, multicore, GPU, ram speed or capacity, drive speeds, anything of the sort
uhh, 4 spaces
So is this the PC Master Race chat? 
(Not kidding.) I kinda wanna make plans on buying some parts to build a decent PC.
pcmr, ew
What's your budget (and currency and country if not US/UK) and when would you be buying?
Not sure because I'm wondering if there'll be new hardware this year. @brave field
For the PC itself, maybe 1500 max. 1200 if I'm lucky with parts.
$1200 lets you avoid the mess that is budget GPU pricing, and lets you enter the slightly better mess that is high end GPU stock issues, congrats.
New hardware this year relevant to your budget should only be Intel 11th gen and RX 6700 or whatever competes with the 3060 ti
An increase in supply would be the biggest thing to happen this year if it does happen later on
From what I know, AMD used to be the better choice for CPU compared to Intel.
used to being the operative term
From what I've been told that margin kept shrinking.
In 2004, yeah, and again in 2019
for right now though, with GPU prices being so high, the 3300x not existing, the 5600x being $300, and the 3600 sometimes being out of stock, the i3 10100/f and i5 10400/f are kinda attractive
cheaper and similar performance for most tasks, but it really depends on how big the price gap is
and if the 11400/f or whatever its named is released quickly and is cheaper than the 3600, then that's also a way better option
About that. What's the major difference between the 3600X and the 5600X?
Assuming amount of cores and MHz are the same.
It might be a no-brainer, I just wanna be sure.
The 5600x is a newer architecture, Zen3
Not sure on cache differences or IMC improvements, but IPC has increased, so better performance at the same ghz
and the newer is usually a bit more efficient power/thermals-wise as well
Is there any bot commands channel?
Not sure if that helps with the PSU choice.
?
Now, assuming I wanna play GTA with a bunch of graphic-enhancing Mods, or maybe even work with video-editing. Guess the minimum RAM should be 16?
1 x 16 or 2 x 8?
Depends on your video editing. If its likely to require 32gb and you have the money to get another 16gb stick in the very near future, the first, but you'll want 2 x 8gb otherwise
I'm gonna get spitroasted for this, but 4x8gb later on isn't going to blow up your PC like some may suggest
Now what about GPUs? 3070 is obviously held hostage rn.
Not sure how inferior the 3060Ti is.
Or whether there'll even be a 3080Ti.
3060 ti and 3080 are the only two worth it right now imo
3060 ti is far too close in performance to a 3070 to be $100 less
And 3080 and 3090 have very little performance difference if you're mainly going to be playing games, a 3080 ti likely wouldn't make much sense unless you needed more vram
3090 is out of range, and would probably drain my power, wouldn't it?
Everything will use power, the issue with the 3090 is it being $1500 MSRP and then being sold >$2000
The 3080 is $700 at MSRP
Unless your software can take advantage, its not worth it for ~10% performance gain
Really? I saw 3070's for 700€.
Not sure how much exactly that is in $ but fact is, it's more.
well, yeah
MSRP is just for Founder's edition GPUs sold by their supported retailers
The GPUs released by AIBs do cost more typically
First, the Founder's is so good cooling and build quality-wise, its hard for ASUS, MSI, Gigabyte, and others to make decent quality coolers and still make profit
Then you have retailers, who also want to make their profit
and with demand being so high and people still gladly paying $1200 or more for a $700 product, retailers can increase price further if they want, nobody would bat an eye
I highly doubt you can just buy from the source.
So I'd have to find a half-decent retailer that ships in Germany.
Germany.. I need to look at how the GPU market is there again. In 2018 prices seemed to be the lowest in the world
you'll need a retailer that both sells at MSRP and has some sort of program to give you a decent chance
someone like Newegg or EVGA if they have the option on their websites
I once saw a build for less than 1K, with a 3070 and 8GB back in November I think.
Now they start at 1.5K.
Then again, wasn't sure about my balance back then.
Its really a terrible time, just awful
So what you're saying, and I think I could have guessed, is wait till Fall 2021?
Bad idea to ping everyone.
@worthy schooner why
Rules.
ok sorry my fault
It just seems to get worse every time I check. Factories being closed, CEOs dying, new COVID strands
Hopefully something good can happen by fall
Let's hope.
the american economy is not great
ok so my pc is fricked i cant open my volume stuff or anything error code 0x8000ffff and cant open device manager either says couldnt find in roaming
@rose lantern Did you update windows before it started?
that code seems to be associated with update a lot, if you have update enabled, look for the option to roll back if you can
Device manager should open fine if System32 and SysWOW64 are intact. Try devmgmt.msc in cmd or powershell
roaming always refers to a user account folder AFAIK, data there is gone or corrupt or something of the sort
easiest option might be to grab the files you need and reinstall Windows, though
is malwarebytes actually good?
I’d say it’s one of the better ones out there, but you really don’t need it tbh Windows defender + common sense work just fine
Bit less good than it used to be, but you shouldn't use it day-to-day anyways
When I think I’ve got something I follow it up with hitman pro just to be sure
