nah I'm looking at Deutsche Amazon and it's the same there
the D15 is older, maybe that's why
well, I checked the DR5 spec and it cools up to 210W and this CPU asks a 200W cooler
should be fine I guess..
cooler is not the worst thing to upgrade later down the line I guess
I checked many configurators on many different sites and it's even a miracle to find who stocks Noctua.. most sites have ridicolous cooling solutions
it's the hardest piece along main board
I have a NH-D15 in both my PCs. 5950x and i9-9900k
the u12a has 2 nfa12x25, which can be had for an affordable 30€ a pop 
Have any of you heard of this promoter for streamers named Doland Rich? I'm asking around before I give him money so I'm certain he's on the up and up
Never give anyone money to promote your stream. They're pretty much all scammers and f4f BS.
Best case you get scammed out of money. Worst case you get banned from the platform you're streaming on.
That's 100% a NO and as Dot said - a scam
@pastel crag sent me to this guy. I was just trying to get serious about streaming professionally cause I genuinely want to do this as a living
Yeah - full on scam. Create your community and following organically. This provides a stable platform from which to grow on.
Any mods that could investigate this for me just so I know for certain?
This is not an OBS issue. No MOD here is going to "investigate" this for you.
I don't mean it in that way, I'm just asking cause if this isn't on the up and up I want to know but if its legitimate I dont want to just dismiss it
Especially since a member here recommended this guy
Just because someone here recommends them doesn't mean it's legitimate (especially just some random person). Several have said already it's a scam. If you want to "give it a try", that's completely on you.
I might just ghost this guy then. I am disappointed cause I was looking for someone that legitimately could help me out.
With promoting your stream? I personally believe the best promoter for your stream is you.
Very large public servers always have scammers lurking. Never ever trust someone just because they share a server with you. Report them for spam if they messaged you first. And turn off DMs from this servers
Just block them without explanation.
In terms of streaming professionally, the honest answer is it's a million to one shot. Get a solid day job and make YouTube bangers to build an audience, funnel em to Twitch. The doors to organic growth from 0 to Ninja are essentially closed now. If they were open for you, with respect, you wouldn't be asking or considering paying folks.
Do it because you love it. Make friends on the platform you like. See what comes. That's the best way about it.
31st march next year
I think Twitch messed something up, that must display when you have a Treasure Train KEKW
which is 35% off
but... um
yeah
played the intro to clair obscur, GPU driver timed out during the cutscene into act 1 
I have a whatsapp pc question i cant seem to find the answer for
i was using my laptop the last few days and had whatsapp on it and noticed some of the newer contacts do not appear saved and instead of showing their name, it still shows their number as if i didnt save them
one of them even shows an old name i used despite changing the contacts name 6 months or so ago
on my phone and desktop pc, everything is up to date
so anyone know why there is a sync issue?
I want to add that I probably use whatsapp on my laptop at least once a month, so it must have updated the contacts sometime in the last 6 months i was using it
restart app/force sync if option given, or re-login i guess
i restart it everytime i turn my laptop on, that doesnt seem to do anything
i can still use it fine sending and receiving messages
just the contacts are not update
Hey my main account Naruske can't join the discord anymore. Did I get banned for some reason? My last post was, I believe, from march just helping someone out
@cosmic kiln try viewing this invite in a message with the other account. It will indicate if it's banned https://discord/obsproject
And can one of the mods whitelist the obsproject invite with dyno?
Oh my god I did get banned, whatttt
Ah
well I would advise against literal ban evasion as that is against discord ToS iirc
I thought that used the OBS website redirect.
F
I woke up, hit my vape, and hit it too hard cause my head was in the clouds for like a good three minutes ugh
Oof not the glycol fogs
what
neal.fun/internet-artifacts
excellent website
like a museum of the internet
(the bot won't let me link it directly)
bad bot
I love how automagically is still used CONSTANTLY
hate that word
Also, on my daily driver, I'm trying a new distro
Bazzite feels great to use. They use a fork of just for their convenience command, which means I can easily add tasks to it, and it feels HILARIOUS to use
Like
ew redhat
ujust update
ujust bios
ujust install-lact
lmfao
They feel hilarious to type out
my fav is
"how do I get Bazzite to work with secure boot"
"lmao bro ujust enroll-secure-boot-key"
"I really want obs on my bazzite install"
"oh yeah ujust install-obs-portable"
They have tons of convenience stuff built in. OBS, SteamCMD, Waydroid, and even a command to boot into windows via CLI if you dual boot
dead chat
Yep
🪦
💀

i hate these nvidia drivers on nvidia app
black screen
lul nvidia moment
that's a novideo moment, actually
but yaa with how nvidia drivers be these past couple months just stay on 566.36 (unless you got a 50 series card, of course) and chill
I appreciate that. I essentially grew up on Debian and its derivatives, my RHEL experience is just "That one lab at uni" and work ... but largely Ubuntu is everywhere now so that's the arena I find myself in. I might try Mint or Pop, but Ubuntu Studio has been good to me for the most part.
Am I a weird loner in that I run the studio releases of Nvidia and only update when absolutely necessary? Like...I'm a tiny but dedicated streamer and I don't wanna f up my production, any software upgrade is a thing I do in a steady and measured way. 😅
yaaa the ujust stuff is a fedora universal blue thing
Yeah
I also like that you can make your own
so nice
The BEST default ujust invocation is ujust update tho
It updates all things on all package managers, and updates the system itself
so fucking nice and HILARIOUS
"I'm new to bazzite how do i update stuff"
"lmao bro ujust update"
I'm glad you've found a source of endless joy
yeah that invokes flatpak update and rpm-ostree upgrade 
but the aliasing is hilarious
I always smacked just onto any system I could to save myself time, so having it here already has been amazing
u just do it
I see the appeal of bazzite as a distro as well, havign lact just... there is SO nice for handheld linux systems
honestly that must be excellent for new users, although..... imagine you literally trying to help by telling them to ujust install-obs-portal and they think you're messin with them
"how to i overclock my gpu tho"
"ujust install-lact"
Also the fact that they have ujust aliases for docker, steamcmd, sunshine, basically anything you'd want for a gaming system
Hell, even a ujust for waydroid

android gaming in literal seconds
if I were to set up me steamdeck today it'd be bazzite based
but on launch day that wasn't a thing, and like steamos still works so 🤷♀️
They have a build for steam deck specifically that keeps all of the Steam Gaming Mode stuff like firmware control
So it's a raw upgrade over steamOS
yup yup, just can't be arsed to migrate
Yeah, it's not a massive upgrade
You go from arch to fedora and get some basic convenience
That's all
yup p much
the integrated waydroid rather than havin to do it yourself and such is nice sure
but
I got that all set up already anyway
sure kernel upgrades are a bit annoying cause gotta rebuild the modules that waydroid needs, buut..... eh so do the steamos upgrade, run the rebuild script and done
though yeah if I was to set the deck up today? of course it'd just run bazzite and we done
also with handheld daemon being in there yup 
for stuff that doesn't yet work with steamos ootb on non-steamdeck in terms of controls. on like the ally it's gettin much better as of late as they fix stuff up to do a more general release, yup yup
but still
Let's just say that the deck2 will be mine as soon as valves gives us that buy button
(unless they do the launch model as LCD rather than OLED for some godforsaken reason)
Oled sucks
Not a fan of pretty screens?
not talking about screen for desktop
talking about a literal handheld gaming thing...
I mean, its pricing 
20:34:14.716: warning: Detected creation time before 1970, parsing as unix timestamp.
20:34:14.716: warning: Detected creation time before 1970, parsing as unix timestamp.

20:34:14.716: warning: Detected creation time before 1970, parsing as unix timestamp.
First time I've seen this in a log lmao
Mostly due to pricing, but longeivity is also a concern
Fm
I saw it one before lmfao
I actually giggled when I saw it
don't think I've ever seen that before
used to be more of an issue yup
like the galaxy s5 that I got sittin here? Ay yup the screen ain't the best no more now is it
My first time too. Has the mighty @scarlet kernel invented time travel? May she use it for good.
but over 11 years passed since
It sometimes happens if timestamp info is lost on a media file
makes sense
but when that happens in UTC+ land it just reads as 01-01-1970 + some number of hours
tho yeah in UTC- land it would result in before 1970
if that is what's going on here
Yah, only oled ive got is my phone, iam fine with LCD on my desktop tho... Especially since oleds havent came down much in price since their release, well, at least not to reasonable value, imo
yup desktop is gonna stay IPS for long time to come. But on like a steamdeck 2? Absolutely want oled yus
cause if I'm upgrading to a deck2 you better believe that I want for it to be an upgrade when it comes to EVERYTHING
There are also some pretty good VAs out there
you guys seen meld yet?
yeah
have you thought about switching to it or no?
Tried it. Still very green and buggy. Not for daily use.
yeah, i tried it too
and unless you dont do a lot with your stream, it feels like it doesnt have what i need
hell, they claim it runs better than obs but you cant even shut off sources you arent using
not even for a second
but if all you need is really basic stuff, go for it
OBS already meets my needs and I'm used to it. There's nothing Meld had to offer me personally to convince me to try it
looks like just another obs-esque frontend that needs more resources than obs does tbh

they claim it doesnt use more resources XD
test and see
For it's display and window capture, it's literally using the same windows api that obs uses
I tried using it. They dont support amd hardware encoding and from what I could gather, no real ultra wide support
And it felt rather jank
it's not, it's their own thing
oh interesting. But ya still don't have any windows machines so eh 🤷♀️
how weird, did a livestream, and the quality would get really bad
but only on cutscenes
🤔
One of the better things about reddit is that you can't edit your post title if you notice a typo LOL
The comments are taking this one at face value
dang otters always trying to converse
was this post written by you @marsh helm
I would let them watch me cook and converse. They seem nice.
could someone plz halp :|, whenever i try to update my driver, it just says 0/0 bytes
is it supposed to be like that and i should just wait for however long or?
They don't want you to update. Heck I probably wouldn't even bother updating really. People have been getting bricked PC's and hdmi ports not working with newer updates.
bruh 💀
grab the driver installer from the website and try that way.
yeah, it worked that way, ty :]
I dunno if it's okay to talk about this here but it's important so I'm gonna anyway: there's a petition to ban conversion therapy in europe going on right now, it's both close to reaching its signature goal, but also close to ending, so sign sign sign!
you have to be european to sign it FYI
https://eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/#/screen/home
im full of electricity
Nah, that's the cocaine talking
im innocent

i was gonna ask you nerds a question, but i found a good enough answer
If I lived in a European nation I would sign immediately. Good luck!
I literally signed that in june last year, yuuupppp.
5 days ago it was at 500 000 glad to see it has been moving up
looks like it'll make it in timee
aaannnndd it is dooonnnneeee
^^
and yup got the required no of countries too and all that
more than
Hell yea
heck yas
What is that?
JSON data
from the EU signature collection linked further up on conversion therapy
Is there conversion therapy that will make me a better golfer?
If so, I'd probably try it
no, just have to keep buying the expensive clubs and coping
That sounds on par with most things these days
it's all just an equipment issue
who even does that
maybe ask gemini "how to do git gud gear for golf times"
Or gpt
I have new clubs coming in the next week or 2
But they aren't expensive clubs
And since I'm bad, I only buy used balls since I'm gonna lose em anyways
do u guys use wallpaper engine?
I like it but opening steam + wallpaper engine having huge perfomance impact so i am not using anymore
Sure do and doesn't affect my performance

what about borderless windowed?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I avoid any windowed variant whenever possible
But it should still pause
even on max wallpaper engine preset u had minimal perfomance impact?
Well, it pauses, so it's not really doing anything
But pretty sure I run mid settings
I find this advise dubious as it advises against overthinking balls
When you overthink balls you become a spheremonger
Be like a flat earther and just play disc golf
I tried to /gif us the dragon from DBZ but that is not allowed here so I will just play disc golf
Dbz themed golf balls would be great
what do fine people here use for video players? I don't like VLC because it's really slow to start up and cannot display video without going out of fullscreen (bitrates, fps and such). I tried the CLSID fork of MPC-HC but can't figure out how to enable hardware acceleration there (if it has it at all). What other suggestions y'all have?
mpv is kind of a pain in the ass to use as it has no GUI
VLC, MPC-HC, Resolve. Usually in that order.
you use resolve for a video player?
and I just said that VLC and MPC-HC both have drawbacks
Sometimes, depending on what I want to do with that particular clip.
You asked what people use. I answered. And frankly I don't have the drawbacks you describe, with either VLC or MPC.
ofc it depends on hardware, my cpu can't handle playback at over 60-70 Mbps and it starts slowing down in MPC, VLC works fine apart from the fact that I can't view video stats in the player itself (which is a nice to have only, I admit)
Hardware limitations like that will limit you to what you do with video.
the nerdy answer is MPV
which will support all the stats overlay you want and similar nerdy features it sounds like you're looking for
trying to configure it rn
problem is that SDR video appears really dark on my HDR monitor and I can't figure out what I'm supposed to add to mpv.conf to fix it
hmm HDR video looks dark as well...
If you need help or have questions about OBS, check out our #support-portal first!
no video option
Omegle blocks virtual cameras, including the one from OBS. You can't use it there
Yeah, what the actual fuck?
Mobile format version of Twitch looks decent.. except no subs, channel points or cheers!?!?!?
Desktop version works with that stuff, but obviously not ideal
So it pushes you to the stupid app
I'm not sure if there's any world where I want to watch twitch through a mobile browser instead of an app though
Yea
Agreed
I use the browser on my phone for normal phone browser things
Imagine using the thing on the thing that's designed for the thing
ImAgInE
but i will admit that the whole "you need our app" for anything is stupid, say this one offers app i have. the app is a basic map showing location and a list of places saying where i can get xx% savings thanks to some membership and how to use that coupon... no need for a clunky stupid app, gimme webpage with login
Steve Jobs was against third-party apps on iPhone at first because "we have HTML5 and Safari for that"
They made a point of insisting Flash would not exist on iPhone to push people to use proper standard HTML5 and such.
that was largely wrong
especially at the time
(the html part; rejecting flash was a net positive for the world as a whole)
I mean fair, you can do alot with html5, but it's still not quite there for a lot of other stuff
On another note, I really like Clair Obscur's aesthetic. Not sure I'm gonna get the game, but combining the good parts of grimdark/gritty with actual colors/pretty stuff is something I like. And the music/acting/etc. is legit.
you can do a lot now with html5 (and their buddies javascript, css and wasm) but back when steve said that, shit was a lot more limited and you basically couldn't do shit
Defo gotten better yeah
as ads have gotten worse and worse recently, i'm moving towards mobile browser instead of apps
To be able to have adblock?
Are there any public pihole DNS servers with ad blocking? Might want that, too.
It's always amazing to me how "intrusive" people find ads
Guess that's what happens when you grow up in the 12 minutes of show. Ads. 12 minutes of show era
Without Ads those platforms don't exiat
And without those platforms yall would be forced to touch grass
I don't mind ads that much, but what youtube has started showing is borderline porn
and I'm not interested
Yea that's fair
I don't get any of those. I get golf stuff more often than not
But the whole "adblock" generation isn't really a "just because porno ads" thing
It's been a thing for far longer
Hell, I downgraded my Netflix due to budget reasons to the Ads plan and I don't personally mind it
I wasn't using adblock back when it was some text off to the side 🤷♀️
If they can't exist without obnoxiously loud ads every 12 minutes, maybe they shouldn't exist.
Yeah, to be honest I started using it when youtube had 2+ hour long ted-talk style ads to try and convince you to buy garbage years ago and every time I use the app I'm reminded why I don't
And yes, ads have gotten much worse since 2008, now they have audio, animation, floating banners, popups, basically everything any reasonable person would describe as annoying and invasive. Static banners in predefined spots with minimal motion were fine.
I /DO/ use the app, however ma phone patched the APK before I went on to install it 
try to blow me friggin ears off and I won't trust you again, ya know?
That, too. Every ad uses aggressive compression to sound louder than whatever non-ad content you were trying to watch.
yeah I guess that's another difference between old tv ads and youtube. if I'm using headphones and you increase the volume 30-40db, that's painful, not an incovenience
You kids and your internets
You can get off, if you'd like.
25-30% of the traffic on my network is ads/telemetrics/spam.
well see ma shows were on at times at which I was outside/at school/something, and well on the recording I was just able to FF through them ads 🤷♀️
It can all fuck off.
PiHole makes the internet usable I swear lol. As someone that grew up with the internet, things has never been worse. And it's self fulfilling how it gets worse. As it gets worse they put more ads to make money. So more people block it. So more ads gets spewed. It's nuts.
that's the cycle that's been repeatin for like 2 decades at this point, yup
I only don't use pihole because uBO has been sufficient, for the most part.
The metrics for what it blocked honestly made me realise I should've gotten one earlier.
ubo&all I prefer even cause that way can bypass the anti-adblock too 
I didn't realise it was this bad.
wait, holy shit
You don't even know about the majority of useless shit you send out due to it being requested.
yeeeah
for me it's around 9%
in my case it's because ad providers can't/don't validate safety of their ads
I'm not home atm, and I need to update my pihole. But its like 26% atm of all traffic is literally useless.
Ma useless traffic isn't /THAT/ much, which prolly also has to do with the lack of windows machines
You actually pihole ?
Like not just ad blocking, but telemetrics and other useless things are in block lists.
router is runnin owrt and I got p much the lists that pihole uses on there
Hmmm think I'm running Merlin wet - didn't know you could block list through that.
Wrt*
but ya fact of the matter is that windows not talking to ms all the time cause no windows no doubt makes an impact on the useless traffic percentage
😅
Surely yea
But I mean something like battle net launcher from blizzard asking about telemetric data every fucking 30 sec or some shit.
Like f off lol
So many of those. Was kinda eye opening to look at. Originally just got it because some sites were getting to ad filled that it was more ads than site - and I had a pi4 i got for free chilling in closet. Thought f it, lets try see what we can use it for.
Best . Decision evahhh
So many apps these days want to eat a few gigabytes of memory and a few billion CPU clock cycles, all for no benefit to their user.
hello there discord
yeah that's why we need a tweaked version of obs that disables most of it for zero net gain
I know just the one for you!

literally got it minimised, btw
Can I interest you in our Lord and savior Lumin OBS?
putting the 'bloat' in 'bloatware'
the fuck is it doing with 8 gigs??
om nom nom, om nom

Obviously storing the application itself 80 times over , just in case.
gotta bless them another time, on the european citizens initiative to ban conversion practices the French make up over 50% of the vote
everything about clair is perfec, except for the horrible UI and VERY strict parry window
the parry window should feel less tight the more Brie thou consume
some of the endgame bosses do 15+ hit combos that will fuck you up
and the horrible UI makes it even worse to try to counter
everything blends with the background
I hope the next final fantasy takes some inspiration from clair
also god damn, everyone is gorgeous and not in a sexulized way
was really refreshing to see that
i didnt say your ugly
just that they're gorgeous
no need to be jealous
i love games like this that come out of nowhere and take over the world
even macron was tweeting about it lol
When you go to visit friends, you bring a goodie box
looks around i dont see anything around me
That's not normal. You should have that looked at, friend.
am i allowed to post my youtube video here about Nvidia Gsync compatible enable and disable to show input latency difference on valorant game?
That may rub along the lines of rule 3.
What is your reason for wanting to share it?
<@&715347355565817879> shitposting in multiple channels, probably ban speedrunning
to show with and without gsync latency in valorant game

Maybe we need an OBSBot command that explains the bot isn't backed by an LLM.
Unless there's a plan to train and bankroll a support LLM that I'm not privy too. 😅
given how much of a fan we here are of LLMs I'm sure that will make a lot of people happy
There are no plans to engage with any LLM-based chat bots, and a command doesn't seem appropriate as it is easy to just answer a question if someone asks, or let server staff handle it.
I appreciate that, thank you
I want to ask when is the android coming out😭😭😭I really want to use ittt
there are no plans for an OBS studio for android/mobile, sorry
the best solution i can offer is either capture what's on your phone in OBS on a connected PC, or find a tool/app that allows streaming directly from your phone
scrcpy for android is probably what your looking for
hello cool people
I want to get a wifi security camera for the front and back door
as some people have been stealing plants
what are some good security cameras that dont cost an arm and a leg and a subscription?
This is technically what I have but I'm also paying for the subscription which is a yearly one rather than monthly https://store.google.com/product/outdoor_security_package?hl=en-US
Night time with nightvision mode
And daytime
The hole user is gone on github. So i think the dream stopped ^^
The discord still on, think they just going underground since the whole thing got exposed 
^^
Gotta be careful, someone gonna rainbolt yo butt 
Neighbor on the other side has their own cams as well 
Besides I enjoy a cul-de-sac of poor planning and construction.
What does the ($250!!) yearly sub get you?
maybe we live in different places 😅
that's what you linked up there (or what it routed me to, in any case)
$80/yr isn't terrible; how many cameras will it handle?
That's to buy the hub/camera.
Not the nest aware subscription I have.
And double checked about that but there's no limit to number of cameras to add.
I use Nest cams too. Doorbell, two battery powered cams outside. Couple powered cams inside.
I've been happy with our Ring system. Going to get some solar panels for the outdoor cameras so I don't have to climb up on the 14' ladder every 3-4 months
<@&715347355565817879> 🧹 pls
^ on other channels too
Only other one is #ideas-suggestions
Hmm on linux too, but then it was gone.. maybe the dyno automatic catched because of the repeating?
why moderation actions have lower rate limits than message posting is beyond me
Dev/Support channels usually get autonuked quickly enough.
I was listening to a podcast talk about xcom 2 and i just redownloaded it again
such a good game, i hope its been patchd enough since i played it at lauch
Why's the server logo still pride themed?
Wondering what the logo on the OBS Community server is? It's the LGBTQ+ Pride flag, showing our support for LGBTQ+ Pride! For more information, click here
umm
i need something for the front doorbel
and one i can put on the window
and nothing wired
Nest has a battery powered doorbell and battery powered cameras. I get about a month on each before recharging, and I live on a corner with a regular pedestrian traffic
Ring has a wireless doorbell as well. The app will notify you of any motion. You can also set it to call your phone when someone rings the bell. You can see them as well as chat with them over you phone. There is also an indoor chime which you plug into a standard outlet. The chime can notify you where there is motion on any of the cameras as well as announce if there is activity at the front door which is picked up by the Ring doorbell @marsh helm
those are both owned by amazon right?
Yeah. nest and ring have similar features.
ring is amazon, nest is google
reolink might have the offerings you want
The ring cameras can store to a SD card. If you want to use the features, you need to connect them to a Wi-Fi router. The videos are uploaded to a secure storage and you can opt to not capture video and just do the live feed if you wish.
I don't care if Google snoops, given that interconnects with other services in my house, for home/away states.
It sounds like you may want a "local" security system which stores to an internal HDD on the "box" which the cameras connect to. Some are wired and some are wireless.
yeah i want it to backup to either a large sd card
and wirelessly
off my home wifi
does tp link have stuff?
TP link does have internal SD cards.
Dig into stuff here - https://www.tp-link.com/us/home-networking/cloud-camera/
https://www.amazon.com/REOLINK-Doorbell-Control-Subscription-Assistant/dp/B0BZ3VCT27 this would be great if i could do wired
reolink is what reddit keeps mentioning
oh they do have a wireless doorbell but its much more expensive for some reason
https://www.amazon.com/Tapo-Spotlights-Ultra-Wide-Detection-D210/dp/B0D8M6GNP3@opaque halo what about this?

True


Why
Cuz they can barely make a single gpu work still
These graphics cards look nice.
too bad it's a 5060(ti) and therefore completely worthless (the icraft card with the catgirl on it)
the dual gpu isn't even for games really, it's an AI card
8 gig vram, all of the "previews" out now are forced to be 4x framegen bs compared to old 60 series card with none to make it look good, ouh also look towards GNs most recent video about what nv been up to (der8auer also has a vid abt that, amongst others) and so on
ouch
I just had to do the stupidest shit to get my new lil mini pc running
my keyboard was not recognized in bios so I couldnt boot from USB
I even tried forcing Corsair's BIOS mode
Nothing
I had to fucking PROGRAM MY FUCKING G502
WITH F10, ENTER, AND ARROW KEYS
And THENNNNNNNN it worked
OMG what an utter pain
That's actually brilliant, I love it. 🙂
This is why I keep a PS/2 keyboard.
The only thing I can think of that would top that, would be writing a LUA script for Logitech Gaming Software that can convert morse code on 2 buttons into text.
I've still got two fully functional MS internet keyboard pros
140% sRGB... can't wait for the report of no clamp
meh
the AOC Q27G40XMN has the same amount of zones but is only $250
but is 1440p and also VA
for that price, I'd def want OLED
I know it'd be a bit more for 4k, but if you're already paying that much..
fixing bloom with IPS is a bit hard
i also want to see how well it handles darkmode vscode and youtube
anyone use steam deck 512gb oled to play 2d indie games
is it worth to get?
- can i play gog,epic store games too?
supposedly with the heroic launcher yeah, you can access gog/epic games
"For PC, to thank our loyal fans, owners of the original S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games get the Enhanced Editions free, and buyers of the Enhanced Editions receive the original versions included."
oh yeah and all 3 original stalker games got enhanced editions that just dropped incase anybody missed it
rockstar could never
they did for GTA 5 tho, but not with the remaster earliere games like SA, or bethesda with oblivion they also sold again

We now have a server up and running 😤
noice
I decided to go with docker+portainer for management, and for now the server is fully headless
And as you can see, I went with raw debian, no DE cause who needs one of those
Hyundai makes memory

Yeah, Hynix is a hyundai company!
yup yup, used to be labelled as Hyundai back in the day even
oh wait
they aren't anymore
only were up to like 2003
chaebols be like that
can't find much abt the 2003-2012 period, but yeah 2012 was when they switched to be SK Hynix cause they got baught by SK
yup yup south korean company stuff is wild
not too long ago Samsung was making tanks&all
I think they still make container ships too, it's crazy
samsung has some local offices near me, they occassionally post job listings in the local newspaper with Korean fluency as a requirement. oh well 
i love that brother, the printer manufacturer got so annoyed over not being able to buy CNC mills that fit what they were trying to do, so they just built their own CNC mills and now that's a major company which machines were used for the iphone at one point too
i think the apple watch still runs on brother mills? normal phones/etc are supposedly all running Jingdiao mills now
brother, sewing machine manufacturer turned printer manufacturer (which is seemingly a common pipeline)
oh yeah they did sewing machines first
as ya go from sewing machines to printers to CNC mills what do ya do exactly other than increasing the number of axes that your stuff operates on?
ah yes the other one I'm thinking of was JUKI
sewing machine ya got your first axis, then with a printer the "needle" moves left to right as well, and then as ya move on to CNC mills ya add a couple more axes

pretty much! I remember a lot of the old reprap stuff was mostly "hey salvage this from an old inkjet"
but why don't we have open source 2d paper printer improvements then? it's still the same shitty crap with overpriced ink
much smaller stuff
you want your own inkjet printhead? Whelp gotta have the necessary lithography setup
and that's just for the printhead
inkjets have some insane engineering in them
and? let china churn them out for 10$ a head and slap it on an old ender v3 frame, glue some paper down and zoomie
we are at a point where an open source needle printer would be feasible, provided you're happy with like 72 dpi
the ender v3 doesn't have the precision by a long shot
"open source needle printer"
Is that a prison tattoo?

is that what happends when i slip and bang my hand up into the 1mm endmill in the mill?
perhaps
plotter? Yes. Printer? No
ugh. why did HP have to turn out like they did
publicly traded corp
next question
greed is good
nasty
that is actually sth that wonders me. Why aren't there like plotter heads (be it for cutting or for drawing) for all the common 3d printers out there?
yeah but bambu is a shitty company
I have a plotter that I bought as a cheap kit for fun, the head is a suuuuuuuuper cheaply made 3d printed thing
but also cricut, and that a proper plotter has many much nicer features like roll feed
the apple of 3d printers
only works with their specific software and everything goes through the cloud
wrong but sure
they make ones with ethernet and you can just non-network the other ones nowadays
I literally tried looking for a way to run such a thing without any of their stuff
not too long ago either
out of curiousity
didn't find nuffin
look again. orcaslicer and disable the networking
for the bambu?
literally
or the cricut
bambu printers
start a print with SD card
okie ya so that still works without auth
stilll
not exactly behaviour that I'd want to support LOL
no still, just read. it's heavily suggested to do cloud but not required, at all.
which does require auth and their bambu connect software even if you're runnin orca
the lan mode that is
either way I don't see anything defensible in this document, the /ONLY/ thing that should require a connection to them or their stuff is when you literally use their cloud
otherwise?
ew.
but how else will they sell you on their nice features and fancy RFID tagged filaments?
and yah, the cricut can only be run with their stuff which is what I initially wrote
They won't 
literally the apple of 3d printers
shame prusa took forever to improve on their stuff
I like the idea of being able to hook up a 3d printer to LAN for submitting jobs and firewalling it off from everything external. sucks to be unable to do that.
I like the idea of buying something and then doing what I want with it
yeah that too
"Ouh this sennheiser audio interface only works with sennheiser headphones"
ridiculous
one day when I figure out a place to put it I'll get around to putting together a voron
as far as machines I want go, though, that one's pretty low on the list
which is, once again, ridiculous
somehow i'm amazed apple hasn't locked down their USB-C to 3.5mm jack adaptors
I'm also amazed apple follows any USB-PD standards
Ouh they'd get another couple hits with the mallet from the folk that got them to use usb-c in the first place
good, cause supposedly it's one of the better USB DAC in a 3.5mm jack adaptor you can get
the google one supposedly awful
it's pretty good as long as you don't load it down with something high impedance
yup yup the apple usb-c to 3.5mm adaptor is a surprisingly good dac for it's price
which is funny cause it's apple
only thing I wonder is whether it still falls apart after like a year like all their lightning cables did

i don't mind, means they're easy to get when it breaks
I literally know folk that use such an apple adaptor as their dac with their pc cause it's better than their onboard crap
and like yeah as long as you're runnin it with some IEMs or sth that's perfectly fine indeed
now there's an idea
my ancient sound card was PCI, after I upgraded my motherboard to something modern I was using onboard audio for years and eventually got fed up with the shitty cabling my case had to the front panel. grabbed a fosi ds2 and it's been... mostly fine
I do appreciate it just having a usb-c port on it rather than a built-in cable sticking out
I've been runnin a umc204hd for a couple years by now that I got for cheap cause broken usb port (fullsize b, y'all know exactly what happened)
and yup replaced it with a port harvested from a dead printer
dead printers are a great source of metal rods in random diameters, USB-B ports and screws

oh it also came with a cute little 15cm usb-c to usb-c cable that I now use with an SDR dongle because it's just a better quality cable than the one that came with the SDR 
I wonder whom all of the multi port usb-c pd charger bricks are for? Yes the ones that turn off power for a couple secs to all the ports whenever you plug in another device cause why tf not that surely is convenient and totally not cheaping out?
ah, apparently sabrent actually makes a decent one of those that doesn't do that
I got 2 65w. a 45w, a couple 35w and so on here all without buying any
in general only buy chargers from reputable brands
aaannnnd whenever I plug one in the others don't shut off!
there's too much chinesium out there that is just a house fire waiting to happen
I think they renegotiate every connection when something new gets plugged in
ah yes, here we go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dG2v4FHwJjE
because putting in the hardware to be able to actually handle the ports you got on there would cost money
bigger number better, no need to actually be able to handle the number tho
ooohhhhhhhhh a post from GN about nvidia and them takin a closer look let's say
next we're gonna see GaN plastered on power supplies that don't actually use the advantages GaN confers
actually I'm sure that already exists
yeah hasn't that already happend
true I'm being generous here
next time when you wonder "does this kind of fakery exist already" just look it up on your local wish, dhgate or what have you
or ali, for that matter
or ebay
lel
orrr
amazon marketplace
which really
how different from wish is it these days
or your local shop
I append &LH_ItemCondition=7000 to the url of pretty much every ebay search I do 
it's all china shit at this point
oh the magnetic USB-PD charging adaptors that amazon sells me for 15 bucks a pop are totally different from the aliexpress ones where I pay 3 bucks for 2
totally
totally not the same thing
totally not
how could they
next you're gonna tell me that the one that amazon advertises as "240w capable" can't actually handle 240w which means that the aliexpress listing is actually much more honest
i bought my dad a battery pressure washer, the listings vary from 10 to 260 bar of pressure with 10 to 800w of motor power lol
oh so the same thing as is going on with flashlights&such?
the same thign as it happening with... everything?
I hate the insane power flashlight fad. it's so hard to find a dim red flashlight anymore
Flashlights are the most ridiculous by a long shot I've seen thus far
car audio amplifiers
'cept now you have the brazillian "welder" amps that will deliver but also blow the second your input voltage has a slight dip
buy a fake 1W one and if you're lucky you get a fake that actually puts out like 0.05?
or somethin
dunno
right right W would be for the fake lasers
not flashlights
nvm
but ya

the fake lasers are genuinely dangerous
oh yes this 200A welder totally can deliver those 200A for longer than 50ms
yup cause like if you're trying to buy a laser pointer for like presentations and then what you get is one that pops balloons (and your eyes) just fine
especially the green ones, they often just don't put the required filters in and blast IR because of how they work
"1w halogen equevilant" or some shit if you pressure them i bet
which once again is a lie, cause the actual equivalency is more like .5
of course, it's marketing
at this rate I'm gonna find some narrowband red LEDs and put something together myself. fortunately I usually don't need a flashlight to see when I'm out observing
they sell it as 1W (halogen equivalent), but once you open the box you will find 1W (bogstandard lightbulb equivalent)
i love seeing those "big-ass-LED-COB-on-CPU-Cooler" flashlights
I have a couple of those, but they're for my plants 
the ones that are massively overdriven and wired entirely in series? :o
i'd guess so, haven't looked much into them, just saw them and laughed at the absurdity
the constant reminder that, no, LEDs are not 90%+ efficient in terms of electrical power consumption
and even if the LED itself might be when they're properly driven
ya still gotta take the circuitry that drives them into account
the diode itself is also not anywhere near that efficient
then also the efficiency of the phosphors that convert the LED output into actually human visible light
then the losses as the light passes through that crappy milky plastic you put over it
the ratio of radiant flux to electrical energy consumption for a white LED is lower than 0.5
which compared to anything else really is still hella good
yup
most of the time it's the stupid ass cheap crappy driver/power supply that fucks off on LED stuff. the whole "10.000hr lifetime" seems to not apply to anything but the LED
well only if they aren't massively overdriven that is
the "efficiency" numbers you typically see touted are regarding how well the light curve matches photopic vision response curves
that too, tl;dr: the only thing livign 10k hours is the plastic/aluminium housing
CRI, no? or is that different.
oh the plastic will last for generations!
not quite, it's a bit different to what CRI is trying to measure
ah yeah fair
not me bringing home the random concrete ball i found at the coast to repurpose into a pool-ball looking house number sign
as an example, the unit Lumen is typically weighted to photopic vision response curves
so the Lumen/W figure you see on a lot of LEDs is actually Lumen (photopic weighted) / W (radiant flux output of the diode)
rather than W (electrical power consuption)
so if your light curve matches well with photopic vision, that's how you get those 90% "efficiencies"
see random concrete ball is fine, but yaa be careful with what ya pick up..... random rocks that look kinda amber-esque you better leave behind...
white phosphorous from ww2 continues to wash up on coasts, esp in like northern germany for example and well you aren't exactly all that far away
i can see the big chimney in kiel with some luck from here and a good hill so yeah
yeah
ayo time to cash in that health insurance 
not a good way to do that
self ignites on contact with oxygen AND poisons you at the same time!
double combo!
ah, sorry, to elaborate on this with an example: a monochromatic light source at the peak of photopic response curves would be 100% "efficient" in that regard, but it'd have 0 CRI
yeah defo different things
that's also why low pressure sodium bulbs have such high Lumen/W, the sodium lines match up very well with that
Oh didn't realize they were that efficient, and has the cool yellow vibe
used to be common in street lighting, still is to a degree
Yeah. Neighbour had a big fuckoff projector with that bulb in it at one point for house renovations
yeah the big issue with them is the mercury
And the warmup
is with a lot of things that still be installed out there (mercury being the issue)
and yup, they take a while to warm up
and like their literal garbage cri
makes them work as street lighting
but not much else
afaik the narrowband nature is pretty decent for lighting in fog too
but yeah, pretty much a street lighting exclusive
with the niche machine shop optical flat testing use-case too
there are some cool narrowband amber LEDs that the dark sky association recommends to replace old streetlights with. there are a couple of cities that have them in their lighting codes
and others just turn the night to day and don't bother to ensure they actually light up the street and not like the whole sky
(cough the ones outside my window cough)
gosh our local church thought it was important to keep the tower lit at night, sooo they installed lights in the ground around that then shine up to the tower (and light up the night sky above it too)
they been doin that for like over a decade at this point
that's a great way to attract bugs, too
the ocean does, just give it a few years to rise more..
unless it like rises by 2/3 of a kilometre or so this church gonna be standin there

@blazing birch - is a scammer acting as an agent to help with Meta Data. him and his accomplices masquerade as people who help others with their content. - Please remove them from this server. - Also please mass report their account. I do have proof of this and his accomplice who pretended to be content creator Slate from twitch.
If you were messaged by a user who you suspect may be malicious, scamming, a bot, etc, we recommend reporting these users to the Discord Trust and Safety team so that they can be addressed appropriately. We strongly encourage users to be mindful of DMs they receive from users who are in any public Discord server.
Please report any suspicious private messages to Discord, either by using the Report Spam button in a DM, or by reporting it directly to Discord Trust and Safety
It's your jobs to protect your communites as well. Protecting others does not Soley rely on Discord but us as the users. stop shrugging off the blame and allowing these people to continue.
Thats all i needed im fucking out. this server is useless anyway.
disable DM's and be over with it 🙂 it's a flaw from discord's side that the default is to allow it.
thats not how we stop it
it's on discord to stop it.
but please continue to be lazy and provide a platform for these scammers.
nah its on all of us
thats why we can kick ban report people
otherwise discord takes no action
are you dense?
no, i'm watery like all humans
this is a public server, you are asking us to take action on something that is happening in your DMs and telling us it is our responsibility. disable DMs in public servers if you do not want messages from others and report the DM to discord directly.
then act like a human and stop acting like its not on all of us
throw me in the lake like a witch and you'll see tha ti float
we have no way to validate what is happening in your DMs, sorry.
so shurking off the responsibility to someone else is reall fucking corny
You know what else floats? Ducks float
oh yeah because im going to fucking photoshop a scammer scamming people
lets bffr
has literally happened.
the thing is
save the photoshop, use inspect/dev tools. makes a 5 min job into a 5 second job
it's a case of "we have had it happen before"
scam smarter, not harder bro
not "it could happen"
nope, it's discord's job to uphold their ToS, not the user's
I will ask something from everyone here....when a conversation like this happens we don't need everyone rushing to join in.
also pretty surte asking people to mass report someone on the basis of "trust me bro" is against said ToS
sorry

🧠
just gots those tplink sec cams
okay i am back for now
i heard SE live was improving so i decided to jump into obs studio with SE live again
i am currently using streamlabs desktop for the long run wanted test it
Might want to search today's windows support channel. And yesterdays. Lots of people with issues that were solved by removing the SE plugin.
really? mine works fine
the plugin has had a long history of being reliable at breaking
especially at OBS update cycles
to the point that it was the top support issue by number of incidents for multiple consecutive OBS releases
the recent changes they made to add their multistreaming has brought the plugin back into the "very bad" category again
oh geez
the only reason it's not top support issue this cycle is because riot waited 9 months to check vanguard against the announced changes to the game capture modules
oh geez
yeah
I'd use aitum multistreaming
aitum multistreaming has proven to be more reliable than streamelements' offerings
both in performance and stability
does SE live have a server now?
if you're referring to them offering something similar to restream.io for multistreaming, I don't think they do
for multistreaming i am actually still unable to get a new hardware still
don't they handle the multistreaming online now?
From what I'm remebering, your hardware can't handle the multiple encodes you want, you're unable to buy better, unwilling to stream less, and unable to pay for a service that does the multistreaming for you.
don't think so and even if they did, I have a realistic amount and type of trust of their plugin
and won't recommend it
ok
well i am just exploring the plugin
I have two monitors now splitting the load
Just not working because of the windows 11 second monitor bug
Having two monitors doesn't split the load.
Thats pretty much why i am using streamlabs desktop for a reason
and what reason is that?
Then why try anything else? You have your free premium sub there, just use t until it runs out, then decide what you're going to do. Pay for it for longer, or get better hardware.
And i am actually using their software for 1 full year
It expires next year
I am just exploring the update
I actually just finished my test run
It has been deleted
Because streamelements just post that on everwhere
And i am in that discord server to help others
Still trying to figure out what you mean by this...
using two monitors increases the load
Just for monitoring streaming
No games
Monitor not detected windows 11 bug
If you need more in-depth technical help for your computer issues outside of OBS, you can join the /r/TechSupport Discord server
Twitch really trying to give those incentives
Don't think that's a bug.
Upon searching its definitely a bug
LOL, where are you searching?
Bing
Last I checked, Bing was a bug. 
And the computer i have
according to my pest control company it is a bug
Specifically
actually, hasn't the 50% off thing been a thing for a while... idk
Even Bing is telling me you just need to fix your stuff.
Already did all that still don't work
After updating
It doesn't
Just tells me it's something on your end. Faulty hardware, cable, monitor, driver, something.
Nope tried all that doesnt work
Try searching my pc model
And i got this from co pilot


Just to be clear there is no “windows 11 second monitor bug”, you really should reach out to proper support if you’re having issues with that
!techsupport
If you need more in-depth technical help for your computer issues outside of OBS, you can join the /r/TechSupport Discord server
I did reach out to support already
And it worked for a while but after my graphics card and my windows it stopped working for no reason
That is why i say its a windows 11 update second monitor bug
Except it's not
If it's a bug, it would be replicatable. Meaning, others can make the issue happen too.
Head to the tech support server. Here is not the place to diagnose whatever it is you have done with your gear and software.
simple way to confirm whether that's a software thing or not would be to just boot off of a live usb with the lin distro of your choice and see if it shows up there?
Either way first thing to check of course would be to check where the second monitor is plugged in 🤷♀️
but yus
I didn't do anything
It just stopped working all the sudden
If you turn on your pc and connect it to the internet, it always does something.
Screenshots are unnecessary. We don't have the resources here to do anything for your hardware.
of course, a production date of 2008 may be a contributing factor.
17 year old TFT monitor shit the bed.
Not in a situation to buy a new monitor either
I am basically stuck until microsoft does something
I don't think Microsoft can fix your broken monitor.
I did update my drivers this morning from windows 11
Update and its not a broken monitor
It works
Just not working whenever the monitor is connected to my pc
Well, sounds like you narrowed it down. Nothing we can help with here. Time to move on.
Ok
Yep its official
Its my windows 11 preview version
I found out just now
It seems like i have the preview version of the windows
well you never mentioned Preview version, that changes everything. You seem to leave out the important details, like unproven beta versions of the operating system. Don't be the guinea pig. Stay on stable releases for everything if the production content is a factor.
Yes i know i must of misclicked
I just found out using chatgpt
I took a picture of my system info
Upload to chat gpt
And it told me
so, it's "not official"
"chatgpt told you" is not proof of anything
nothing on that screen says insider. 26100 is 24H2, which is publicly released
I thought 24h2 isnt released
It carries the build number 10.0.26100.
The update began rolling out to all users on October 1, 2024
is that in the About screen on your PC?
what version does the winver command say?
confirmed, not an insider build. that's a standard Windows 11 installation running the latest Patch Tuesday update, released 7 days ago.
you trust chatgpt more than a human? that's concerning.
here's the proof: May 13, 2025—KB5058411 (OS Build 26100.4061)
https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/topic/may-13-2025-kb5058411-os-build-26100-4061-356568c2-c730-469e-819d-b680d43b1265
Then why does my monitor dont work then
Matt the Wizard: 1
ChatGPT: 0
my guess
- hardware issue (the monitor died)
- bad cable
- plugged into the wrong graphics port on your pc
- accidentally disabled in Windows' Display Settings
Monitor seriously didn't die
It works when i plug it to a different computer which is a monitoring computer
It all the sudden stopped working
Additional confirmation, directly from the Microsoft Discord server:
Release Preview: 26100.4188
Beta Channel: 26120.4151
Dev Channel: 26200.5603
Canary Channel: 27858
You are running a smaller number (26100.4061), consistent with standard release Patch Tuesday.
then check #3 and #4
on the motherboard or the graphics card?
Internal port hdmi
do you have a graphics card? because usually when one is plugged in, the motherboard hdmi is disabled.
then, with the monitor plugged in, press
+P on your keyboard, and select "Extend"
I do i have hp notebook 15 fc0000
Its doing nothing when i tried that
And then when i plug in to detect the monitor it gets an error says we cannot find another display
That is pretty much why i am calling it a bug
or a dead hdmi port, that can happen.
Its a bug that doesn't affect everyone only a certain people
Have you tried a different monitor with the same cable and HDMI port on the laptop?
Definitely not true either because my hdmi works with a different cable and my tv works
Just not my monitor
It connects its definitely not dead
Then it's weird issue, but not a bug in the software technical sense. Like you showed us earlier, that monitor is very old. It may not be compatible with the latest Windows or GPU drivers.
It used to work and then it stopped working
And you can't expect Microsoft to support something from April 2008
Right, likely because you updated Windows.
mess about with the display settings on the monitor, maybe source settings idk
You’re suggesting that an HDMI monitor is somehow unsupported by recent windows updates?
This makes as much sense as “second monitor bug”
Well my monitor dvi to hdmi
Have you tested plugging anything else into the monitor with the same cables?
I've had issues with older monitors, granted much older than that one. And one of them was in an all-in-one.
If this is an HP W1707 it would also have to go through an adapter to connect to a laptop HDMI port right? Specs say VGA and DVI
That might also be worth looking at
Damn I'm late
lmao
Same difference really
unplug the HDMI from the laptop and plug it into a different device that you can test like a video game console or anything that connects through HDMI
this will give you a quick answer of whether it is anything related to your laptop at all that is having an issue
you do not have anything that outputs video through HDMI?
