Just wait until 🍎 gives the 13” MacBooks the M1 max chip

[supple walrus]

[small mural]

Would still be less expensive than the XPS 13

[analog wharf]

and would still perform worse than a 3090

[cold elbow]

M1 fucked every other manufacturer hard.

[brave field]

Can't help but feel weird about using blender in these CPU benches

consistent, yes, but why are on-paper numbers that can't be compared to any other workloads relevant when even a 750ti will outperform?

my latest foray into cable management (power cable is WIP i need a very specific power plug which im gonna buy in a couple days)

[civic cloud]

Very nice oleg

[jovial tide]

[slim bluff]

I can't tell if the first image is real or if it's a modelled in something like blender

By my standards

[slim bluff]

my philosophy is "I'll just lob it in the corner and it will be fine"

I have a whole ethernet switch down there too

[small mural]

Yeah as long as the cables don’t get in the way of something

How much would watercooling cut down on the heat expelled from the case

My PC heats up my room considerably and I'm wondering if an AIO would alleviate that at all

[jovial tide]

I mean, the heat's gotta go somewhere

[brave field]

none. The AIO just expels the heat faster, if you have a very very very bad air cooler

[jovial tide]

so it'll likely be the same

[vapid grove]

Makes sense

[small mural]

Have you checked where the temperature’s coming from?

probably from the CPU, no?

[vapid grove]

Haven't looked too much in to it, I just know the exhaust fan kicks out some pretty warm air

[lost fossil]

the limiting factor is the copper tho

at least i think it is

the only reason why aios are better than air coolers is because there is more radiator

and you can't transfer heat to liquid directly, it has to go through copper first

[small mural]

But copper drops the temperatures according to LTT!

[lost fossil]

liquid metal does

original ihs is copper too

Gud?

[analog wharf]

for the psu i would get an 750 or 850w instead

also, 6600xt instead of a 3060 if you dont livestream. If you livestream i can understand tho, it has the way better nvenc encoder. But in terms of gaming 6600xt is usually on par if not beats 3060 for mostly cheaper + better support with linux and more modern looking and overall better drivers

[small mural]

Do I need to pair the 6600xt with an AMD cpu or just stay with intel?

Maybe swap the 12400 for a 5600x

[jovial tide]

Intel is fine

[analog wharf]

it should work fine with intel, but yes with the 6600xt its best paried with a 5600x

I think smart access memory does also work on intel cpus, so you can still enjoy that sweet performance boost in certain games.

[jovial tide]

Thought that only benefitted RAID configurations

[analog wharf]

wdym?

smart access memory does improve game performance pretty sure

[jovial tide]

Maybe I'm thinking of Rapid Storage Technology

[arctic yarrow]

9
Order of operations require addition to occur within the parentheses, then you go left to right for division and multiplication.
6/2=3
3(3)=9

Bruh is the “/“ a fraction or just division symbol

Off topic, what's the best thermal paste pattern for ryzen considering the chiplet design? An x?

[civic cloud]

Doesn't matter

Its a small enough chip to just put it in the middle

It will spread with the pressure anyway

If it's a bad paste you might want to add lil dots in the corners

[lost fossil]

the best pattern is use an old plastic card to spread the paste nicely

[civic cloud]

That's like an extra step

[lost fossil]

need advice

i used to use elgato game capture app to stream sound from console to pc

but now i finally routed an optical cable to my "mixer" so now i don't need to use the app

but now if i don't use it i also can't stream a game on discord

so the question is, what are my options if i want to stream a console game on the cord without the sound duplicating?

[arctic yarrow]

What console are you using?

I'm giggling like a schoolgirl rn

It's not even hitting 60c on full load

I'm gonna overclock the hell out of this

RDR1 on Xenia is also noticeably impacted. In MacFarlane's Ranch I got a bump up from 20fps average to 35fps average.

so i should stay with the 970?

[supple walrus]

PCIe 3.0 or 4.0

[jovial tide]

oh 4.0

why

[supple walrus]

well then yes, if you need the tiny extra speed get 980

[jovial tide]

alright thanks

[supple walrus]

because without PCIe 4.0 the 980s speed boost is redundant/bottlenecked

Quick question to the PC part nerds

Intel core i5-9500F for 99€ worth it?

[brave field]

nop

9500F is EOL now, unless you already have the rest of the PC laying around somehow

[neon bluff]

Alrighty, thank you

Currently looking on Ebay for a somewhat decent CPU

Since i need to upgrade my Amd Fx-8350 shit

[brave field]

Intel's 12th gen may be a great fit

The i3 12100F smacks the 9500f

[neon bluff]

Any details on the price range?

[brave field]

Not sure which country you're purchasing in, but the 12100F is likely the same or slightly cheaper

[neon bluff]

I'm in Germany

So probs gonna cost a bunch

[brave field]

build? speed? colour?

[trail cape]

it's just gonna be photo/video storage

7200 RPM should do it, right?

[trail cape]

build and performance, duhh

[neon bluff]

16 gb

[analog wharf]

cpu?

if you're on a ryzen 5000 series cpu, 3600mhz recommended imo.

[neon bluff]

gonna use an Intel core i3-12100f

[analog wharf]

Should be ok then

Its mainly for ryzen, it likes to work with faster ram and 3600 is usually the sweet spot for the 5000 series

[neon bluff]

i found the 16gb ram on ebay, there was a lot of ram with 2133mhz, but then found the 3200mhz ram

[analog wharf]

make sure to enable xmp when you get it though.

[jovial tide]

realistically you could stop at 3200

[analog wharf]

3600 is the sweet spot for the 5000 series imo, but hes going for intel so while ram does still matter, he should be going for a min of 3200mhz which he is it doesnt matter as much for intel.

[cold elbow]

not really, CL number matters as much as speed
so 3600 CL18 is almost the same as 3200 CL16
I would recommend the latter since it's cheaper and gives the same performance... also better compatibility eh

[arctic yarrow]

I just realized I'm an idiot. I purchased 3600 mhz ram and forgot to enable XMP. My RAM is running at 2133mhz rn.

[analog wharf]

i mean i got 3600mhz for my build but really depends on fabric clock of your ryzen

[jovial tide]

with ryzen too? rip perf

[arctic yarrow]

I will fix that mistake when I get back from work.

[arctic yarrow]

Yup

5700x

[jovial tide]

im surprised u didnt notice sooner

[analog wharf]

aw damn enable that shit now

[neon bluff]

quick question, how do you enable xmp? in bios?

[arctic yarrow]

I was too blown away by my temps and the performance jump from my 7700k to notice

[analog wharf]

depends on motherboard so i would search a tutorial

[arctic yarrow]

I can't, I'm at work rn.

[jovial tide]

google it, including your motherboard make, and it should show you a few pics of how to do it

its pretty simple tho

[arctic yarrow]

Yes, it's in the bios.

[neon bluff]

alright, thank you :)

[arctic yarrow]

I bet xenia performance will improve once I enable XMP.

[twin badger]

Yeah, seems like a pretty good deal to me

[strong saffron]

I made a docker container using a syncthing image according to the instructions here: https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/blob/main/README-Docker.md#discovery
But not only does Local Discovery not work, I can't access the GUI at 127.0.0.1:8384 (when I use host networking. If I don't, I can access the GUI but local Discovery doesn't work)
The other device is an android connected to the same network as my pc. What do?

[cold elbow]

I use syncthing and it has been working awesomely for years
Installation was so easy because"Windows"

[keen gust]

Yes I agree technology lol

[strong saffron]

Im on Windows too but I wanted to try docker 😩

[cold elbow]

Docker on windows?

[strong saffron]

Ya

[cold elbow]

Docker on windows is garbage

I used it in the past to run pi hole and it worked fine for few weeks then suddenly pi hole was not taking control of my dns

Tried everything and didn't find a solution
Until I found a simple script that makes it work without docker

Also, you can just download Syncthing for windows.

[strong saffron]

I know, I've used it before. I'll just go back to that then

[cold elbow]

Also, docker on windows needs a lot of RAM

[brave field]

Make sure you're not using Docker Desktop. Over-monetized, resource-hungry, slow garbage. Run.
Standard cli Docker in WSL2 saves lives.

[strong saffron]

Yeah I just got it to learn docker and I'm trying to get everything I had working natively work on docker

[strong saffron]

I am

[cold elbow]

There is very little documentation for it so you are lost most of the time
Better off to run a VM on windows

[strong saffron]

I can still use it for jackett etc. I guess. I tried Podman on WSL2 before getting Docker desktop but I think I was using it incorrectly back then

[brave field]

Podman's extra learning curve in rootful/rootlessness and setting up the registry can suck but its so worth. Which parts are suck, if there's any way I could help?

[cold elbow]

https://github.com/DesktopECHO/Pi-Hole-for-WSL1 you can check how are they running this maybe it would be helpful for other projects.

[cold elbow]

what is the lightest version of windows you know or for me to build?

my current method is using the debloat code method and disable background shits

[strong saffron]

It was mostly because I just jumped in without understanding containers/Linux/whatever properly. I'll give it another shot and ditch Docker desktop

[strong saffron]

Thanks. I'll check this out

[brave field]

I haven't gone any further than the old LTSB and spamming GPE/registry/services stuff in Pro, unfortunately.

[cold elbow]

i wanna make the lightest version ever and probably convert it to an image

[strong saffron]

LTSC image is like 3gb I think

[cold elbow]

yeah i might start with that

but it's not the size, mostly ram usage and CPU

i have a very weak laptop and i wanna squeeze everything out of it

[brave field]

Must be Window?

[cold elbow]

yeah

im done with linux shit

i might try linux since this laptop has a connected screen so it wont need a dongle

[brave field]

If its weak enough to not be held back, a pre-Win10-release 8 or 8.1 install might be useful

[cold elbow]

it's currently running windows 10 latest

[strong saffron]

10 LTSC is probably lighter than 8 or 8.1

Can I create dev environments with Podman btw? or is it just for running containers?

[brave field]

If you mean through that one VSCode thing where you can try new languages, you should be able to, in theory, but I couldn't make it work on either docker or podman.

[latent drum]

does anyone find it weird that companies are pushing raytracing while dynamic lighting still looks like ass

[brave field]

It has support for everything docker can do except docker-compose. If you do any normal OCI-container development without that one vscode thing, yes

[latent drum]

there are a few select AAA titles with good dynamic lighting and it still doesnt even come close to baked lighting

[cold elbow]

cus nvidia giving them money and they want more attention to their game?

[strong saffron]

neat. thank you

[latent drum]

Ray tracing isnt advertised anymore thankfully

[brave field]

make sure you have your networking sorted though. Containers don't get their own ip in rootless, for example. They all share one ip address and only forwarded ports matter when running without root/a pod/custom bridge setup. Leads to things like nginx seeing all incoming traffic as the same ip address (the one of the bridge), or wireguard/openvpn seeing both the client and the server as the bridge's ip. The sudo does wonders if networking in podman is wack but not in docker.

[latent drum]

its just included in game engines

it just the price of GPUs and such have increased because of a useless space on the die itself

raytracing cores are BIG

and raytracing looks like ass

[cold elbow]

this is not correct

ray tracing is still heavily marketed

[latent drum]

dont get me wrong
but i have never seen perfect reflection irl because there is more to reflection than copy paste 100%

[strong saffron]

This is one of the things I had trouble with tbh. I think my inability to get syncthing working is due to not understanding how containers do networking. Will definitely need to read up on that

[latent drum]

most games now adays just have a raytracing toggle , without advertisement
it doesnt require that much effort to implement it either

its a dead hype

[cold elbow]

they usually dont add it when the game gets released

that's the driving factor of it

and on every card get released there is a huge deal in comparing ray tracing performance to other cards

[latent drum]

yes like with everything

[jovial tide]

Damn, some great deals on some 30 series cards atm.. £1,133 / $1,400 for a 3080 ti, less than £100 / $120 above msrp

[arctic yarrow]

[jovial tide]

Best I've seen

By far

[arctic yarrow]

When $100 over MSRP is a good deal.

[jovial tide]

GPU moment

[arctic yarrow]

I remember when $50 under MSRP was a good deal.

I long for those days.

[jovial tide]

Ryzen is definitely the better choice, it's basically msrp now

[arctic yarrow]

Oh yeah, I managed to snag a 5700x for $250.

[jovial tide]

Radeon*

But yeah that 3080 ti I saw probably isn't the cheapest, I'm gonna see if any are cheaper

[arctic yarrow]

Oh, you were talking about GPUs, not CPUs.

[jovial tide]

Yeah

[arctic yarrow]

You said ryzen and I immediately thought about the 5000 series.

[jovial tide]

Yeah I get mixed up between ryzen and Radeon

[arctic yarrow]

Isn't it weird that the 5700x performs 1-2% slower than the 5800x despite the TDP of both being vastly different?

The 5700x has a TDP of 65W, while the 5800x has a TDP of 105W

[jovial tide]

The 5800x is known to get quite hot tho, so it's probably not very efficient in the way it's using that extra tdp

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah, I guess you could OC the shit outta the 5700x and have it perform better than an OC'd 5800x.

I'm really liking the fact that my 5700x peaks out at 67c under full load when overclocked to 4.3ghz, meanwhile my 7700k hit 95c under full load at 4.2 ghz.

Same cooling solution too.

[small mural]

Yeah

It’s also weird that the 5800x performs pretty much as good as the 5950x, despite being half the price at MSRP

[arctic yarrow]

In gaming yes. Productivity no.

[small mural]

Yes

[arctic yarrow]

It makes sense tho, since per core performance matches, and gaming usually doesn't use more than 8 cores.

[small mural]

I’m also talking about the “regular” 5800x

Not the 3D

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah, the 5800x3D performs better in gaming than either the 5800x and the 5950x.

[small mural]

It can be confusing to the average person

Because they’d think “Ryzen 9> Ryzen 7” or something

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah... it's a little confusing, but real world performance depends on what you're doing.

If you're using it for productivity, the 5950x would be a better option than the 5800x3D

Gaming has the 5800x3D, then the 5800x, 5900x, and 5950x at a tie.

[small mural]

Even for gaming, you’d think the flagship Ryzen 9 would be a better option than the Ryzen 7

[arctic yarrow]

Followed closely by the 5800 and 5700x

[arctic yarrow]

More cores sometimes doesn't translate to better gaming performance (unless you're futureproofing).

Funny enough, some reviewers are suggesting that the 5700x is just a rebranded 5800.

I wouldn't be surprised if true.

[latent drum]

ha lmao

[latent drum]

depends on where you live but the 3080 TI and the 6900 XT and 6800 XT are MSRP in stock

[twin badger]

oh you mean the taskbar, bruh

[small mural]

Oh they changed it?

yeah the taskbar

[jovial tide]

yeah that doesn't work xD

I kinda wanna go back to win 10

there's really no reason to switch to windows 11 rn unless you like the aesthetics

or if you have the 12900k, which benefits from windows 11 in certain games

[small mural]

Performance is better on Win11 if you’re using a 12th gen cpu iirc

[jovial tide]

yeah

[small mural]

Not just the 12900k

[jovial tide]

the 12900k is probably where its most noticeable if i had to guess

I haven't seen anyone talk about any other 12th gen with it

but it isn't that many games that benefit from it, so yeah, no reason to switch yet

[small mural]

https://youtu.be/XBFTSej-yIs

[jovial tide]

yup

[small mural]

It’s not that noticeable tbh

Like in games, it’s a <10 fps difference

[jovial tide]

Look like unless the game is cpu intensive, the fps decreases in windows 11

[twin badger]

I am good with my Windows 10 for now, does the job just fine

Not enough of a difference for you to notice tbh

[arctic yarrow]

From a UI standpoint, I would stick with windows 10.
From a performance standpoint, there isn't any noticeable difference.

[fervent granite]

I would've thought 10 would run slightly better just because there's less things to load

but the difference is negligible

@brave field U know how to make sound louder for PC ?

Like a enhancer or something

[brave field]

make sure your hardware, OS/sound stack, and software volumes are all turned up. If all are, head to the legacy sounds menu (pictured below), right click your primary device, go to properties, and check if there is anything under the "Levels" or "Enhancements" tabs

If you're using your laptop speakers, try the volume up hotkeys on the keyboard. Laptop speaker volume is sometimes separate from the volume you set in Windows

[chrome lotus]

I did this its at 100

Not the loudest

ill have to try a sound booster or somet

[lilac heath]

Get Dolby Atmos

https://youtu.be/QLK3biqX6lg

This actually works

U will instantly notice an improvement

[vapid grove]

Atmos is always the answer tbh

[lilac heath]

And its free

[vapid grove]

Wdym

You need either in ceiling or up-firing speakers for atmos

Oh didn't even look at the video

[lilac heath]

Works best for headphones,i've already tried it

[chrome lotus]

❤️

ty Sid.

It boosted my volume to my expectations.

[lilac heath]

Np,did u watch the vid btw

just be aware, dont get too exited if you start bleeding from your ear!

that wont end up in happiness. it will end up in the hospital

[full jacinth]

any ideas?

[rugged bloom]

for me the performance difference is a massive dealbreaker

i would get around 60fps in gta online

with win 10

and like 30-40fps with win 11

and most of the people i know who use windows 11 gets their performance absalutely destroyed

especially in low end pcs

[stiff kestrel]

do you have a calculateFees method without any parameters?

[full jacinth]

i dont think so

[stiff kestrel]

but you called the method without any arguments in line 103

[full jacinth]

oh i see

[stiff kestrel]

bear in mind also that cpp requires you to define methods before you're allowed to use them

[full jacinth]

i know

thx tho :)

[stiff kestrel]

np
so is working now?

[full jacinth]

yep no error

[stiff kestrel]

nice one

enjoy the rest of the semester

[analog wharf]

Dont think win 11 has worse performance, just not a huge performance increase if you aren't on 12th gen intel cpus

Basically on par with 10 if you're not on 12th gen intel cpus

At worse maybe a slight performance decrease, but I don't think that massive that it's about 20-30fps worse

[full jacinth]

at least it warms up my room in winter

[light totem]

Whenever i hear people talking about gaming laptops i unironically think of them as one of those 5 in 1 shampoo

[fervent granite]

I always think of the msi titan because they're always super ugly and bulky

[small mural]

I think of the nitro 5 for some reason

maybe because it got that gaming laptop aesthetics

[crude jewel]

i bought it according to my needs

well if you cant answer then why do you have to be sarcastic

😭

oh okay

it has a r9 5900 which keeps throttling

yeah ive checked a lot

ive underclocked it

its running at 15watts

and 69 degrees C

maintains amazing temp at this

but performance much less

Asus rog strix scar 15

G533QS-HF210TS

3080 version

i feel they messsed up with liquid metal

there are not overheating issues like me

i just go 90 in no time

there are about high temps but

not this worse

70+

65 with custom tweaking

yeah ive built many pcs

but this laptop scary

[light totem]

Try to create a bit of leveling for airflow
Wouldnt solve everything but it’s something

[crude jewel]

yes

[crude jewel]

that may br an issue

[light totem]

Also a r9 and 3080 has quite the power draw
Not to mention it’s in a laptop

[light totem]

That seems fine for a high spec laptop tbh
Seems like most people say their idle temp is around 50-60c on asus reddit

[crude jewel]

chassis is lifted 3 inches but its close to wall

[crude jewel]

ive undervolted it thats how im getting this temp

else on normal settings

this is avg

idle

minimum id say

80+ on normal settings

or i can just run my fans 7k rpm to cool it at max performance

maybe the air around is warm

[light totem]

Ok
Not normal

[crude jewel]

yeah also when i got the thing, they shipped via air, the box felt like it was thrown into mud or something

i mean they didnt pack it properly

ive mostly had these temps

70 degrees at idle when i got this

now its worse

i dont think so

well ill try that

but i feel theyll not accept cuz ive used it for 2-3 months now

i can open it but im not very good with laptop components

especially the heatpipes etc

or is it ventialltion problem

im just worried about how long and bad the procedure is of returning the product and all

i wouldnt be surprised they just threw it after getting money, where i live

ill check temps at diff locations

im mostly sitting at same place so

and its a sunny room so

[cold elbow]

Lmao asus laptops

[crude jewel]

im not as rich as u

I actually also have an asus gayming laptop and its trash

[crude jewel]

i bought it thinking 3080 is enough for another 2 years

[cold elbow]

[crude jewel]

makes me depressed

saved for trash

lets see

ill check for a week

[arctic yarrow]

Is that the same laptop that has the shitty aesthetic vents that do nothing? Or am I thinking of a different one?

[cold elbow]

Yeah

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah, if you can find someone who's good with a dremel and sandpaper, ask them to dremel some more vents in that chassis.

[crude jewel]

uh thats worse than my

[cold elbow]

Yeah told mom that she did a very poor choice

Gonna probably sell it

[small mural]

[arctic yarrow]

Cool looking > Thermals obviously

No wonder the temperatures are like that

[crude jewel]

sucks better than urs tho

[light totem]

I would suggest
Making bigger holes
Use a drill or smth

[arctic yarrow]

No, if it acted like a space heater it would vent the heat out into the environment like it's SUPPOSED TO FUCKING DO.

[cold elbow]

Remove the panel and slap one of these bad boys

[jovial tide]

I guess its more like a microwave then

😔

[light totem]

Liquid cool that laptop

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah, cooking the shit out of those poor components.

[crude jewel]

lol tell me the solution to this

a cooling pad?

[small mural]

[jovial tide]

buy a laptop with vents

[small mural]

Ez

[jovial tide]

won't help, no vents

[cold elbow]

Sell it

[crude jewel]

to whom

[cold elbow]

No other solutions

[light totem]

Doesnt help much if there’s no vent in the first place

[arctic yarrow]

Dremel the chassis, then use a cooling pad.

[jovial tide]

to someone who wants a ventless laptop

(ebay)

[crude jewel]

is that safe

[arctic yarrow]

Well, you obviously need to pull the back of the chassis away from the rest of the components before doing that.

[small mural]

having an R9 5900 and a 3080 in a laptop with fake vents is like keeping a metal spoon in the microwave

I would shoot the engineer that designed this monstrosity

[fervent granite]

and you guys play at 90° c?

[light totem]

Imagine they forgot to put thermal paste

[cold elbow]

I replaced it

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah, it's a poor design problem when even kryonaut doesn't lower the temps.

[light totem]

[cold elbow]

It's a tiny bit better

Like 1 or 2C lower

[arctic yarrow]

That's basically a rounding error at that point.

[cold elbow]

Probably

[light totem]

Hardly a difference when it’s around 90

at least it's portable tho

Meanwhile my 7700k would hit 90c on 100% load.

I never push my laptop over 60° c

[cold elbow]

Whoever design this is soooooooo stupid and irresponsible
They never heard of VRF systems

[arctic yarrow]

I have a corsair h150i and my 7700k would hit 90c on that at stock speeds. Meanwhile my new 5700x maxes out at 60c with it overclocked to 4ghz.

[cold elbow]

Thing is
Im running this cooler on 900rpm

And your 7700k probably needs some work

[arctic yarrow]

I'm getting rid of it now xD. I have it in a box with my old motherboard ready to ship.

[cold elbow]

Yeah throw it away

[arctic yarrow]

The temps will be someone else's problem now.

Hmm, maybe I should look at delidding it and tossing liquid metal on it before I ship it.

[cold elbow]

Or just ship it

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah. Best not to take the risk.

[lost fossil]

delidded cpu with liquid metal is a better value no?

[cold elbow]

You will need a kit and liquid metal

[arctic yarrow]

I have the kit, left over from when I delidded and applied liquid metal to my old 3770k.

[cold elbow]

Hmmm

[arctic yarrow]

I need to look around for it though 😛

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah, it is. I probably should talk with the person I'm gonna ship it to to see if he wants that, and let him know the risks associated with it.

[lost fossil]

i think it would be good to coat the chips around the die in nail polish and then also maybe surround the die in some foam like sony did with ps5

the die there is surrounded with foam to prevent liquid metal from flowing out i think

i think that would be the most idiot proof way to put liquid metal on a cpu and sell it

[arctic yarrow]

That's what I coated the areas around the die with when I delidded my 3770k.

[lost fossil]

[arctic yarrow]

Oh, and my gtx 1070, because I was a fucking madman.

[lost fossil]

but most gpus use bare die

[arctic yarrow]

Yup.

I put liquid metal on the die

Yes, I'm a fucking madman

[lost fossil]

[arctic yarrow]

You're not even half a decade older than me tho.

Well, that would be 1.25 days old on Neptune, or 2/3rds of a day on earth.

Since Neptune rotates every 16 hours.

so fully delete and reinstall?

For further troubleshooting, #gta-tech-support is a better place to ask this.

Is there a "better" way to do this in Javascript? (read x sets of y bytes and assign them to variables, without manually specifying the offset, creating a buffer etc.)
Kind of like `struct.unpack()` does in Python

[stiff kestrel]

File.slice() maybe?
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/File

[strong saffron]

How do I use that? 😬 This is node btw

[strong saffron]

I managed to simplify it a bit by creating a Uint32Array with the buffer and using destructuring assignment

If it is node surely there's a module that has the python struct behaviour you could use?

u use it because it sounds like meme

[brave field]

Bluestacks has its adware issues, Nox has its spyware issues. Technically Genydroid/Genymotion perform best but it also provides the worst anti-features of all them

If you don't mind losing the tiny bit of GPU acceleration those two give, consider Google's official one in Android Studio on Windows or Linux, or Anbox/Waydroid on Linux

You know any good SSDs for PS5?

I will probably be getting one next month, I saw this one. Don't know if it's any good

How about this one?
https://www.amazon.es/dp/B08KFRFL8F/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_X72M55KST6GMVC73XBWH?_encoding=UTF8&th=1

Cheaper than the seagate 2tb

In fact, the sn850 performs better in benchmarks compared to the firecuda 530

But it's in terms of fractions of a second.

[solar iris]

Noted, thx

What about the first one is that any good?

[arctic yarrow]

That's the 1tb version of the sn850

So identical performance, but half the capacity

Price per gb is still better for the 2tb one.

[solar iris]

Oh mb. Yea you're right

[arctic yarrow]

So yeah, if your budget allows it I recommend getting the 2tb sn850, otherwise go with the 1tb version.

[jovial tide]

bit ridiculous that they set the bar quite high for what ssd's you can put in the ps5

as if it has "MASSIVE" performance differences

[cold elbow]

Yes u need a very fast SSD to enable direct storage
It makes sense actually

[lost fossil]

right cuz they use directstorage

i forgor

[cold elbow]

Not only that

Quick resume and shit

[lost fossil]

quick resume is what i submit when applying for a job because i have nothing to put on it

[jovial tide]

that's good

[cold elbow]

You can put your gtao experience

[jovial tide]

i haven't read anywhere that you need a very fast ssd to enable it, a pcie 4.0 is what you need.

now the impact of different speeds is unknown, since they only allow ssd's from a certain transfer speed.

but my guess is we're gonna get more info whenever and IF that shit comes out on windows.

[cold elbow]

I mean

[jovial tide]

which has been in the works for god knows how long

[cold elbow]

PCIe gen 3 gets saturated around what? 3600 MBps
So yeah a gen 4 ready sad is already considered very fast.

Didn't know that you are talking about even faster speeds

[jovial tide]

well gen 4 goes quite high if i recall correctly

and sn850 is considered quite high end gen 4

yeh, the sn850 reaches 5,300MB/s for sequential writes

some go into 7000's.

and as i can see, 5500's are recommended for the PS5, but not enforced.

[cold elbow]

Imo i encourage this move because it will push the industry faster

And manufacturing a lot of these means with time they are going to get cheaper.

[jovial tide]

it already has got a lot cheaper

[cold elbow]

Yeas during last Friday i got me a Samsung 980 1tb for like 80$

[jovial tide]

but realistically i'll probably stick to it for a even longer period

[cold elbow]

Get a gpu first then maybe upgrade to 5600

[jovial tide]

ye welp, originally looked more towards the 5800 with absurd cache

would be a unimaginable upgrade

but still relatively expensive

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajDUIJalxis&t=974s

[cold elbow]

It all depends on your use

We all know that tech becomes old pretty fast so why investing a lot in it?

[lilac heath]

[jovial tide]

doubt this would get old fast

cache is what mostly matters in video games

[civic cloud]

For the flex ofc

[jovial tide]

4 threads is a bit weak

but it's workable

The way I see is the combination of single and multi-core performance
Cache is just part of the equation.
If all you care about is gaming then 5600 is more than enough even for an RTX 3080
That is considering that you are not into streaming.

[sour marsh]

interesting

[jovial tide]

5xxx series and intel's 11th-12th gen already have more than adequate single core performance

now it mostly falls down on cache

11th gen refresh was a joke though, and only after 12th have we seen major leaps forward

while i'm aware of the 5600, the 5800x3d seems a lot better long term.
(in my case though, very likely i'd need a new motherboard for the 5800x3d )
so after all might be the 5600 i'd end up going for

if it falls down to 300-350 range, should be insane value

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQ6k-cQ94Rc this is also a interesting topic to delve into

[cold elbow]

Yeah hardwareunboxed is one of my favourite channels and they are very reliable

Btw the issue with the 12th gen now is the cost of their motherboards.

[jovial tide]

yeah, will take a while for the 600 series boards to fall down in price

gamers nexus is also highly recommended

Best monitor reviews uwu

[charred arrow]

Not sure if this is the right channel to ask for this but how do I retrieve information from mysql like there's id and name and I wanna know someone's name based in the id

If someone maybe knows I would really appreciate the help

Found something like select * where column 'name', 'id'

But that just didn't work

[strong saffron]

SELECT name FROM table WHERE id = n;

[charred arrow]

Thank you!

woop woop, open source nvidia drivers

[jovial tide]

where?

[slim bluff]

they have just announced it

https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/nvidia-releases-open-source-gpu-kernel-modules/

[jovial tide]

oh, that's good.

linux users, rejoice

[arctic yarrow]

Fucking finally.

[jovial tide]

took them long enough though

[brave field]

Turing and later only, and the clientside parts are still closed source

but in the coming months... I can't wait

[analog wharf]

Finally

So hopefully nvidia drivers on linux wont be a pain in the ass and finally they

re open sourc

[slim bluff]

Void linux btw

[analog wharf]

Then again im on amd so not big news for me, but ig its a good thing for linux nvidia users

I might try dualbooting

[arctic yarrow]

42 gb of ram is a strange amount.

[slim bluff]

I know

I mixed ram

but they are both corsair and both have the same speed

[arctic yarrow]

RIP dual channel.

[slim bluff]

I dual channelled them I am pretty sure but idk shit about that tbh

I can tell you all about software and low level programming but I am shit with hardware

[arctic yarrow]

Usually if you mix ram capacities, it runs in single channel.

[slim bluff]

I shall take this into consideration

[brave field]

watch for hybrid-dual/flex mode

You can still get dual channel-like bandwidth for some portion of your ram and single for the rest

[arctic yarrow]

Hmm, how long has this been a thing?

[slim bluff]

although I did stagger them into the respective dual channel slots i.e. 1212

[brave field]

Flex mode for ram came out in 2004

but it hasn't seen adoption in the 90%+ range since 2016 or so, I think

[arctic yarrow]

Is it something that is enabled by default, or do most consumer boards don't bother having it as an option?

[brave field]

Enabled by default on a lot of consumer boards but I believe its optional for many HEDT and server ones

[arctic yarrow]

Oh ok. So some portion of memory will run in dual channel, while some will run in single channel, right?

[brave field]

I have it on 3 sticks (2x8, 1x16, capacities of each channel match but it isn't traditional there either) on a GA-AB350 Gaming 3. HWiNFO64 reports all as dual channel. Need to test more using AIDA, and with one 8gb stick removed

something of the sort, yeah

[slim bluff]

rip, config file takes up more than the actual language in my repo

although looks like I haven't pushed anything so actually that is fair

[analog wharf]

mixed ram

[versed dove]

hey can anyone get me the staff color code?

[finite mauve]

I made a Python program that checks if an entered date is in proper format, and if it is a real date.

I had to make a flow chart.

[versed dove]

@echo mural

[echo mural]

@echo mural

[versed dove]

lol

only staff i saw that might be able to pull the color for staff

[echo mural]

[versed dove]

thank you

How can I check whether two folders and their contents are identical? Each folder contains several thousand files in sub-folders. (Windows 10)

Linux method is fine too ig because WSL

[jovial tide]

same number of files?

[strong saffron]

yep

[jovial tide]

i would've said try copying everything from one to another, it should pop up telling you that the files are similar and if you want to replace them...

but now that i think about it, that's a looooooot of files

[strong saffron]

That happens if the files have the same names, regardless of similarity

That copies files, no? I want to basically hash the entire directory and compare. I was wondering if there was a method that did it automatically

[strong saffron]

Pretty easy to do in Linux apparently https://stackoverflow.com/a/16404554
This worked

[cold elbow]

FSR 2.0 is great

[lilac heath]

DLSS is still better but yea FSR 2.0 is a significant improvement from 1.0

[jovial tide]

seems like FSR is immensely easier to add into games

not to mention you can use it both on AMD/NVIDIA

[cold elbow]

And on older cards and presumably on intel

[slim bluff]

I would just compare the outputs of dir or ls

Tree might be better and dirt I think it on linux

[strong saffron]

I needed to check if the files were identical byte-for-byte

[lost fossil]

does anyone know if there is a way to mass shift audio in mka audio files?

[dim mason]

what the hell is a eslint and eslintrc?

[jovial tide]

Google would probably give a better explanation than I can

[cold elbow]

what's a good headset round 50$

mic not important

[vapid grove]

Mh751 if you need something with a mic attached

I think they are around that price, could be wrong

[civic cloud]

used DT770/990

might be a tad above 50

but so worth it

[vapid grove]

Aren't those high impedance?

[civic cloud]

they start at 32 Ohm

[vapid grove]

Might be hard to drive without an amp

[civic cloud]

and a modern Motherboard should be able to drive 250 Ohm easily as well

[cold elbow]

want it new
