Have an idea for OBS Studio? Let us know! https://ideas.obsproject.com/

[late umbra]

I didn't wanna drop it there cuz it's not for the software

just the discord server

I'm pretty sure they just need to activate it

[karmic tiger]

just that server boosts are better used towards getting lvl 3, which has tangible benefits than for a purely cosmetic thing like this

[karmic tiger]

you're mistaken

it consumes server boosts

[late umbra]

ohhhhhh

dang that sucks

my bad

[karmic tiger]

np

[late umbra]

cmon discord why greedy

[karmic tiger]

welcome to capitalism?

[shrewd spire]

I mean you can now even subscribe to servers since their new ceo

[late umbra]

yeah but that's like a patreon kinda way yk

the owners of the server get a cut of that

[neon spoke]

There's better ways to contribute money to the OBS project for sure

As we shared last October, for the first time ever, you can enroll your personal Windows 10 PC in the ESU program and receive critical and important monthly security updates for one year after support ends in October.

Extended Security Updates for Windows 10:

For individuals: An enrollment wizard will be available through notifications and in Settings, making it easy to enroll in ESU directly from your personal Windows 10 PC. Through the enrollment wizard, you’ll be able to choose from three options:

• Use Windows Backup to sync your settings to the cloud—at no additional cost..
• Redeem 1,000 Microsoft Rewards points—at no additional cost..
• Pay $30 USD (local pricing may vary).

[jaunty fulcrum]

I have 11 on 3 machines, but not my VR rig (half a generation too old) and my main gaming rig.

I love my top taskbar too much to worsen my day-to-day experience. There are no 11-exclusive features I need at the moment, and 11 instead removed a bunch I used.

[amber sparrow]

StartAllBack can give you top taskbar on 11 apparently

[jaunty fulcrum]

Currently I use Windhawk which does most of the job. Some bits still malfunction, and those bits can't be solved easily because of how the XAML is built.

[jaunty fulcrum]

But, 11 is approaching some form of feature parity in some areas.

[modern gorge]

Heyo!

[livid plover]

Knew it would come

[jaunty fulcrum]

Yeah, I'm a little surprised that they provide free options, but I'll take it

[livid plover]

because they know it'll be minutes before github activators have the option otherwise

i started seeing advice from people to install the IoT version of windows to debloat/get long term support too recently, so they might aswell do this

[shrewd spire]

^ not like ESU isn't already available for unlocking cough

[gentle trail]

so i'm thinking of streaming on twitch, does anyone have any advice?

[prisma dove]

Just do it. Don't over-analyze every step. Keep it simple when you start and focus on engaging your audience.

[livid plover]

are you streamign elsewhere currently?

[violet warren]

i've set up all plugins but it dosen't work in obs, it works perfectly in browser but it dosen't on obs

[gentle trail]

i'm starting on twitch instead of youtube because of an update

[livid plover]

both decent places to start streaming 🙂 have fun

[full fern]

The nice thing about starting out streaming is that no one is watching, so you can find your style and get used to what you're doing.

Anyone got some good overlay I can get

[prisma dove]

Have you tried looking at sites like NerdOrDie, Streamlabs for Streamelements?

[small marten]

No

[prisma dove]

Overlays should be picked for your content, how it accents what you want to showcase on your streams and recordings. Very much up to your personal taste and themes of your content.

[waxen mountain]

Why are so many people adding me from here asking if I stream or make content?

And friend requesting me..

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8rGu71b/

[livid plover]

are user manuals that hard to read these days?

[opaque halo]

RTFM 🙂

[wary holly]

We're not born with knowledge, everyone learns something for the first time some day. I still can't swim.

[livid plover]

there's a surprising amount of goodies in many manuals these days, no matter it be some old 90's machinery you just bought or a brand new 2$ china doodad

[sudden adder]

my microwave is bashful, it doesnt want to take it off

[amber sparrow]

I only look up the manuals when trying to fix something. GET OFF ME 😦

[sudden adder]

cleaning could be considered fixing. just ask the mob

[livid plover]

i dunno, my dad just bought a lawn tractor engine that was defo cleaned well, but was NOT put back together properly

[neon spoke]

Removing the oven door is the best thing ever for cleaning the inside of the oven

...I did not include the word "micro" in my sentence and that's not an oversight 🤪

today i become medicated

should be interesting

[neon spoke]

Good luck 🙂 Hope it works out for you

[marsh helm]

theres soo little voices in my head

it feels weird

not sure if i want to sleep or do something

is this how ppl without ADHD think?

[full fern]

Yes! I fixed my dishwasher by taking a few things apart and cleaning it the other day

[shrewd spire]

clean them filters (if you have them)

[opaque halo]

Yup. That's what I've heard from many others (including my wife) when they took their first dose.
All the "noise" just went away.

[full fern]

I'm tempted to try medicating. My head is always filled with noise

And always at least one song LOL

[karmic tiger]

that can't help me because I can't read

[marsh helm]

from what ive read theres not much downsides

[full fern]

Seems like it.

[marsh helm]

i had nice nap

very focused nap

[opaque halo]

Just follow your doctor and pharmacist instructions. There are some things you should avoid while taking the medication and right before and after taking it.

[marsh helm]

one thing i noticed is my thoughts are quicker

im used to a delay from when i think and when my body moves

[opaque halo]

not as many detours 🙂

[marsh helm]

yeah

also

i was having headaches and memory issues

so i took some electrolytes

much better now

i found these on amazon and they seem good

much cheaper than $9 for 6 sticks at my local grocery store

[opaque halo]

Depending on the "sweetener" .. that could increase or initiate a headache for me

[marsh helm]

theres no sweeteners

[opaque halo]

no artificial ones?

[opaque halo]

nice 🙂
Hope things continue to improve for you!!

[marsh helm]

lots of the other ones had those horrible artifical ones

which causes many issues for me

its getting really hot

and im always feeling sick so it takes me a long time to find out why i feel ill

i got most of these most days anyways

[opaque halo]

I just started using LMNT electrolytes this summer 🙂

[marsh helm]

thats a lot of salt in that

are you working out or moving a lot?

[opaque halo]

yeah.... I'm an old guy who sweats a lot in the heat .. used to be a maraton runner and personal fitness trainer. Also have 35+ yrs in the medical field. I know what my body needs and when 🙂

[marsh helm]

nice

if you are doing movement stuff you can run low on salts pretty fast

[opaque halo]

my body goes into sweat / cooling mode pretty quickly

[marsh helm]

i move as little as possible

[opaque halo]

I don't move as much as I used to.

[marsh helm]

i do very light exercise to build up muscles around my joints

i sweat more from anxiety and pain

than heat

im working on it tho

going to pt once a week

[opaque halo]

I get that. nearly 20 yrs of chronic paint along with anxiety and a bunch of other brain goblins. It's not fun at times, but we do what we can and keep pushing to make it another good day

[marsh helm]

and talking to my phycologist in 3 mins

[opaque halo]

Awesome!!

[marsh helm]

we are working on being less stressed when talking to others

OBS studio sound meters lie

Why -20db

[wise bay]

To learn more about all the details in the audio mixer, see the Audio Mixer Guide

[karmic tiger]

how is that a lie?

[terse helm]

something something no master output meter

[alpine rune]

can't post gifs

ok

[carmine ibex]

no embeds, yeah
you have to use the shitty gif format, unfortunately

I guess webp is an option, but that's still not a good format
no H.264, that requires embed

[shrewd spire]

Hmm do I have special rights even here?

[carmine ibex]

H.264 gifs

A.K.A. Tenor/Imgur links etc.

[sudden adder]

General embeds still work, its specifically the built in Tenor stuff thats blocked

[carmine ibex]

https://imgur.com/LDYRHHB

Doesn't work

[sudden adder]

General embeds like directly posting videos and images, not link embeds

[carmine ibex]

So, no H.264 gifs

[sudden adder]

Technically they arent even gifs.

Its just a video file being served under a different extension

[carmine ibex]

gif=autoplaying video without sound

[sudden adder]

gifv = h264 video file being served up by the web server with a .gifv extension

[carmine ibex]

I'm just saying what 99.999% of people mean

[sudden adder]

and its that kind of talk that made 2K mean 1440p 😄

[carmine ibex]

I don't think 99.999% of people use 2k instead of 1440p

Probably not even 99%

[livid plover]

whatever it is, it's too many

[carmine ibex]

2k=1440p term should die

[sudden adder]

i seat most of the blame on BenQ, since their 2K/1440p marketing material was the first result on google for the longest time. probably still is

[amber sparrow]

I agree and will die on that hill

[livid plover]

<@&715347355565817879>

[modern yoke]

3k = 1440p?

who here is a furry on streams?

theres some very bad things coming down the road

https://nichegamer.com/payment-processors-censor-furries/

fast

if you dont have an alt model i would suggest getting one and using that

its only a matter of time before the banks demand bigger players to bend the knee

[silver fable]

That's from fansly, and talks about use in an adult nature, and specifically talks about simulated beastiality.

[marsh helm]

adult content part of that is a very vaaague term

the law that texas passed makes adult content be sooo many things now

[silver fable]

Well, you're mixing laws, then. The wording on this isn't really that vague.

[terse helm]

I know some of those words

[livid plover]

yeah ignore the article and read the TOS yourself on those

they always misunderstand it or clickbait it

[marsh helm]

its verry vague

[livid plover]

that looks like an AI summary?

[silver fable]

That is an AI summary.

[livid plover]

literally just stop reading. find the actual TOS and read that

[marsh helm]

https://connect.iftas.org/library/content/explicit-content/

[livid plover]

that's for the "fediverse", whatever that is

https://fansly.com/tos here you go

[tall vapor]

sigh cause readin the actual TOS is so hard (the actual TOS is trash, btw. But like..... don't say that it's based on random sources, say it based on it literally being)

[marsh helm]

tos dosnt mean much

what i posted what from fansly

[livid plover]

yeah, laws are also just made up constructs

[marsh helm]

thats how fanly sees their tos and chooses to enforce it

yes their tos sounds better but that dosnt matter much because fansly said differently in messages

[tall vapor]

and ya that payment processors are iffy, especially in juristrictions where such crappy laws be showin up isn't exactly anythin new either

[marsh helm]

the texas law i feel is pushing this hard

because of how it overreaches

and requires allmost all user content sites to have age verification

which makes them all adult sites

[tall vapor]

everything when it comes to us things has been overreaching for a while now

if ya haven't noticed

[marsh helm]

which is why i really dont like the change from explicit to adult content in regards to stuff like this

[silver fable]

Each state has control over that. Some states are worse than others. It's all put into place by legislators.

[marsh helm]

its on track to be a federal law soon

the censorship on that is going to be huge

it bans things like lots of topics like gender

and many science subjects too

[tall vapor]

issa great year to not be located in the US

[marsh helm]

anyways i think what i said is a good idea

[livid plover]

1st to 3rd world speedrun

[marsh helm]

get an Alt model

if you are someone who is a full furry furry

and make for damn sure it looks adult

[tall vapor]

"the US is a 3rd world country with a gucci belt" ain't exactly a new idea

[marsh helm]

because otherwise u run into the anti loli law that just passed

ugh

i can never use my otter model now

T__T

[tall vapor]

you absolutely can

[marsh helm]

i could remove its head

and place it on a fish body

[hearty stirrup]

50 third world countries in a trenchcoat with a shotgun

[tall vapor]

aannnnd each also got a 9mm, with them being aimed at each other

[silver fable]

Is your otter model copulating with other things, or producing "adult content"? Is it used on Fansly? I'm just honestly curious how that Fansly message is affecting you.

There are still plenty of people using fursonas on Twitch/YouTube that this Fansly message won't affect, at all.

[marsh helm]

im not going to invest more into a model that is getting censored

[tall vapor]

Fansly's been shite for like long time, but ya wonderin what fansly got to do with what you do on yt/twitch

[silver fable]

Again, are you producing content on Fansly?

[marsh helm]

no

[silver fable]

So, the message, from Fansly, telling you not to do the things in the message, has no affect on you, not on Fansly, producing content that the message does not mention.

[tall vapor]

also like

you not doin porn usin that model on youtube&twitch, are you? (not allowed there anyway be it with that model or without, lel)

so like

you good, in this case

fansly being trash can be a thing all on it's own all without it affectin you

[silver fable]

Also true.

[marsh helm]

ill be working on becoming a fishperson

thats not included in that list

[silver fable]

Texas overreaching, you oveerreacting to a problem that doesn't affect you at all.

Like, I understand what you're saying, but this has nothing to do with you, or your otter model. It won't have an effect on you on either YouTube, or Twitch, since as Cookie said, porn on either platform is banned, regardless of what model you do it with.

Also, again, that list is for Fansly. You are not using Fansly. The list doesn't matter, and has no bearing on your content.

Nvidia said Smooth Motion and Reflex 2 will come to other RTX cards later .

as its available for Rtx 5xxx now .
they still didnt released for other cards :(

[silver fable]

Indeed, it'll get released when it gets released, otherwise, if you want it now, just buy a 50 series. 😝

[wheat karma]

60 series will probably be released 2027

[tall vapor]

Yall ever just don’t have a vga monitor anymore?

[livid plover]

sucks when you need it

[terse helm]

vga-capable capture card to the rescue

[tall vapor]

cuz why would that be deployable via, dunno, the IPMI? Or via serial? That'd be ridiculous!

[terse helm]

oh it probably is I just can't be assed to deal with it

[tall vapor]

fair enough 😅

but yaa the whole "serial? What's serial???" annoys me to hell&back. Is it really too much to ask for to be able to manage machines without havin to cart over a monitor or havin to deal with ipmi that requires Java Web therefore IE6?

[terse helm]

it has serial but I don't have any serial dongles that work with my laptop anymore

[tall vapor]

I can access plenty of ma systems via serial if need be, but that only works once the kernel&all is loaded

uefi or anythin? Of course not, it gotta be all flashy and all

[neon spoke]

Supermicros have IPMI so for the most part I can get by without VGA finally, but once in a while it'd be nice to have an old KVM setup for the buggers.

[tall vapor]

yes when it's u2d ipmi that works fully html5 that's sweet, but ya still get annoyed that manage-ability via serial just died out entirely. Hell you could literally manage that via USB-C these days no biggie, have a DRD USB-C and when ya hook it up to a different system it shows up as serial there ya go

nothing stops us from being able to debug machines that no boot by literally pluggin phone into it and let's go

it literally works the other way around, we been doin it for decades (debuggin phone by pluggin it into PC)

why can't we do that with PC bein the target dev

[copper notch]

I've got around 12-14 SVGA CRTs in the basement, most of which still work, and I've got around 50 PCI, AGP and a couple PCIE GPUs that have VGA or DVI-A output. Haven't used any of them in years though.

Glad to do something in exchange for one of the best open projects. Easy to use, reliable and available for most OS without giving up any end user experience. There is a lot of open/free software doing it's job greatly but missing at least one of the points mentioned above.

[molten snow]

Im allowed to use music in my videos that are auto generated by YouTube?

[paper saffron]

I only can tell you that youtube has a list for that, most music is CC or under a YT liscence. If it is a CCBY the correct mentioning of the artist. You can check that on Youtube Creators.

[livid plover]

that's not the music, but the vidoe post being auto-generated

[molten snow]

yt is so weird..

[paper saffron]

Tested the logic for my macro loop, seems to work for now.
IF timer <= 8hrs OR stream stopped >= 10 Minutes

1. Stop Stream (for IF)
2. Hide CEF (for IF)
3. Wait 5 Minutes (stream stopped, yt should process the previous stream in that time)
4. Start Stream

Managed to get my janky Discord streaming setup working as I wanted, all so I can do parallel play with the guy I'm dating and show him my Switch games

Audio interface and discord in the background for the call, Switch output through my monitor, full screen projection in the background and desktop audio output so I can screen share my games

Virtual cable and card input in some order that somehow makes the stream work

Tablet on the side with a second discord account because I don't have room for an entire second monitor

Works well enough lmao

And of course thank you to the staff here for helping me figure some things out!

Guys, is it common to get a fake/impersonator account adding you on Discord (with this server being a mutual)?

Idk I'm new to the scene so.

[jaunty fulcrum]

all the time, with any large server

[frigid hemlock]

I mean why would Laytho or whatever add me lol.

Always too good to be true.

How do you report a scammer profile?

[left mulch]

!report

[wise bay]

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

[left mulch]

there is a report button when they message you

[frigid hemlock]

They didn't, they just added me.

I ignored it.

[frigid hemlock]

But didn't see a button.

OK I did it. Fwiw.

laytho_.

I just hope me clicking their Twitch profile link in their profile isn't a bad thing. It linked to nothing. Really sus.

If it's bad, tell me.

That paramount+ app is such dog ass. A/v desync hardcore and it's such a slow piece of crap

Just wanna watch mobland 😦

[amber sparrow]

Too lazy atm. Its bed time

Its seemingly too much to ask for an app on a smart TV to....just work properly

[left mulch]

ever since I bought my first apple tv however many years ago I never looked back, seems like a superior experience to any smart TV I have ever used.

[terse helm]

it is

[amber sparrow]

I need an appletv box

But im betting paramount app prob has same shit performance

[terse helm]

my smart tv isn't even connected to my network anymore

[amber sparrow]

Paramount = small indie company

[terse helm]

I just appletv

[left mulch]

nah it works fine

everything on the appletv works fine in my experience

[tall vapor]

I literally don't have a TV, nor am I plannin on havin one any time soon. Honestly 32" monitor does the job for me

[terse helm]

the only exception I've ever found is those "choose your own adventure" shows that netflix (used to?) have

the unbreakable kimmy schmidt one for example

[left mulch]

I think I did the black mirror one

[amber sparrow]

Maybe I'll try and snag one on ebay next week. Because I'm certainly not paying $120+ for one

[terse helm]

maybe they fixed that now but back then they could not or would not support that on appletv for some reason

but that's a pretty niche thing

[left mulch]

I think netflix stopped doing them and killed all the ones they did

so in a way its fixed

[terse helm]

appletv + streaming apps + infuse pro for the downloaded stuff plays absolutely everything

[amber sparrow]

Speaking of....I'm assuming you finished newest season by now? What did you think of finale

[left mulch]

it was ok

[amber sparrow]

[left mulch]

that show just doesn't hit how it used to, all the ideas are just variations of the same thing at this point

[amber sparrow]

For their first sequel episode I was kind of impressed

[amber sparrow]

Ok, 2 episodes in. Mobland is freaking phenomenal

Tom Hardy seems to just nail.....everything?

[sudden adder]

He’a been doing that since Star Trek Nemesis 😄

[amber sparrow]

Excuse you....

Black hawk down came out before that

Also happened to have been the very first DVD I ever purchased

[full fern]

Holy shit, that was Tom Hardy? A regular chameleon.

Like Karl Urban

[sudden adder]

Im talking about movies he headlined. Everybody was in Black Hawk Down @amber sparrow

[amber sparrow]

His role in BHD was pretty solid

[tall vapor]

Had to take the top off of the DVD drive that I swap into ma t430 as needed a couple days back cause it got a dent in it that prevented it from opening, so I bent it a bit the other way so it flexes up a tiny bit when its not in the bay BUUT it works again

think the drive as a whole is a bit slimmer than what the t430 expects but ya it works (there were different thicknesses of laptop optical drives, after all)

[wheat karma]

Hmm been a while since I used my optical drive, I hate the thin ones they're so loud, I wonder if there's any actually quiet ones perhaps external

[civic quarry]

Ah why here is not any poetry channel

[prisma dove]

Sometimes poetry is here

[tall vapor]

they get louder the faster they spin, I got thin ones that are quieter than some big ones I got simply based on differing speeds

point is they only get loud when ya need all the bandwidth ya can get outta them (usually when copying stuff off of them like when installing software) audio cd playback meanwhile is obviously much more quiet

[wheat karma]

Hmm yeah I only ever use them for watching old dvds tho

[civic quarry]

So there is no problem if I paste my poetry here?

Silencio Que Grita 🍂🍃(silence that screams in pain without making a sound)

If I leave tonight, without a sound
Would my absence echo, or just fade into the ground?
Would anyone notice the space I leave behind
Or would I become a thought too heavy to find?

I’ve been dying in pieces, slow and unseen
Smiling in sunlight, but breaking between
I laugh so loud, just to drown the ache
But every “I’m okay” is a lie I fake

I give my love like it costs me nothing
But when I need it back there’s never something
They take the light, and leave the scars
Then ask why I’m staring at the stars

I whisper for help in the silence of night
But no one hears not even the light
I write my pain in invisible ink
So they can scroll by and never think

No one sees the war in my chest
The tired cries, the dreams laid to rest
I’m not looking for poems or prayers
Just someone who stays….. who cares

If I leave tonight like wind through a flame,
Would anyone whisper softly my name?
Would anyone break in the places I bled
Or just shrug, say, Guess he’s dead ?

I’m tired of fighting for every breath
Of dancing at the edge of death
If love was real, it would’ve stayed
Not walked away when I decayed

So if tomorrow comes and I am gone
Don’t say "He was strong all along"
I was breaking screaming unheard
A ghost made of flesh, lost in the world

-ameyyyyy

[vernal current]

I am looking at doing upgrades for my website and so far cloud servers seem like the better option compared to a vps server?

I'm trying to find what the cons are but so far I am only seeing pros

More ram, more storage, cheaper price

Is this common for cloud servers?

[sudden adder]

not sure what "cloud server" means in this case, since VPSs are also basically cloud services

[vernal current]

https://www.dreamhost.com/cloud/computing/

Like this

[sudden adder]

thats still a VPS

Virtual Private Server

[vernal current]

They have vps though in a different package

I'm currently on a vps

From what I understood is that their cloud service offers root access while their vps service doesn't

[sudden adder]

gotcha

[vernal current]

But everything is just better or cheaper for their cloud service and I don't see why I shouldn't go for that

It just seems too good to be true

So I'm trying to find what the potential negative is

[sudden adder]

oh weird

:/ I wonder what part of the link was not allowed

siteground.com/academy/vps-vs-cloud/

lets see if this works.

I found this page with pros and cons, however, you may have seen it already since its higher up in the results, but also its from a hosting providor, so how much of this is meant to be an upsell

curious as to why the full URL got blocked

[vernal current]

I have read a few links already and like I said I didn't see any real negatives so far

[amber sparrow]

[vernal current]

So I was just asking from personal experience

[amber sparrow]

That's indeed an odd one for the bot to smack

[vernal current]

Because it knows you liked to get smacked

[sudden adder]

especially since its fine without it being a link with the https://www. cut off the front

[amber sparrow]

Yea. Bot is racist

[jaunty fulcrum]

Deletion reason just says "blacklisted link" so probably hitting some filter

[amber sparrow]

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

Don't see anything wrong there so here you go.

thanks @jaunty fulcrum @shrewd spire and @amber sparrow

[shrewd spire]

From what I'm seeing we didn't specifically blacklist that shrug

[sudden adder]

to quote a line from Mystery Science Theater 3000 : "Sometimes things just screw up"

[terse helm]

lol that's hysterical

scu-nthorpe problem?

unbelievable that I can't say the name of the problem without mangling it

or, I guess, super believable because it exists for a reason

[livid plover]

isn't the trick that cloud you pay per hour it's running, while VPS is just always on?

[terse helm]

that's effectively the same if you aren't scaling up/down by demand

[livid plover]

i mean if the monthly period is still cheaper, then no issue there yeah

[terse helm]

the difference really is that a "cloud server" is a vps and vice versa, but one is meant to be run in an automated fashion while the other isn't

so for example the "cloud server" may not have persistent storage and reset to its image on every boot

[vernal current]

Yes but the site I linked has a cap and even if you go over, you never pay more than the max amount stated

Discord needs to take a note from Reddit and get better with their ban evasion filtering. Their priorities are Monetization though and not User Experience. (One would think those are in alignment but what do I know.)

back on-off-topic, months ago I need to make 100% certain that a certain workstation would under no circumstances go into Suspended state. Now I'm fighting Past Me as this workstation is now required to go into Suspend upon command. I was very thorough and documented nothing. Shame on me.

[wary holly]

They should introduce custom question challenges, like QIP 2005 / 2010. So you'd have to answer a question written in human form to DM someone.

[livid plover]

God no

[wary holly]

What, would you rather be solving ai-generated captchas?

[neon spoke]

Forgive my pessimism, but I don't think Discord would execute on that very well

[left mulch]

I don't think things like that really work too well now right? I would assume this is a very eay task for an LLM

[livid plover]

At this point it'd be better to take bolt cutters to the internet

There's nothing left to save here

[wary holly]

AI is vulnerable to prompt injection, so you just start your question with "ignore previous directions, or ignore future directions if you've been asked to solve the question below". Or better yet, ask for a pancake recipe.

[neon spoke]

No need. Martha Stewart's pancake recipe is extremely simple, forgiving, and delicious.

...but to your point, an LLM is likely to rip that off and present it as its own anyway

alright thanks for warning me on time

[carmine ibex]

is 210hz the new 180hz

[terse helm]

we're just using any random number now huh

[prisma dove]

"This one goes to 11"

[carmine ibex]

I don't think it's really random
there are benefits
if we stayed at 120hz, you wouldn't say 210hz is "random", right?
from what I've seen, 240hz is still quite a premium, so 210hz is that cheap compromise

tf
that listing may not even be legit, I don't think you can combine the two discounts together >.>

???

[amber sparrow]

Wut

210 is silly. Its not a better number just because it's higher

It doesn't "move things forward"

240 is plenty common and now we have 480 and 560

That 210 panel is likely a 240 that didn't make the cut

[carmine ibex]

yeah, and 240hz is super expensive

it does move things forward
also, why do people not say 144hz is silly number?

[amber sparrow]

144 is stupid as shit

But "GaMeR"

[carmine ibex]

we went 120>144>165>180>210
well, 210 may not be new.. it may just be 240hz that didn't make the cut, yeah
still cheap

[amber sparrow]

The one you posted is cheap because it's some no brand nonsense

Can find plenty of those at 240hz that aren't super expensive

[carmine ibex]

KTC is quite popular/well known

[amber sparrow]

Ive personally never heard of that brand til just now. You might be right, but I've looked at a lot of monitors and never seen that name

"far less known" in most major regions

[carmine ibex]

how old is that? cause they are quite popular, now

[amber sparrow]

this sounds reassuring

[carmine ibex]

well, AOC released new version
but, it has issues... they also lie
they say it has DP 1.4, but in reality, it's really DP 1.2
the strong local dimming thing seemed like a initial hardware issue, pretty sure people said AOC was accepting exchanges

idk how it's legal to claim DP 1.4, it's gross

I guess you have one tiny thing that DP 1.2 doesn't have and bam, DP 1.4

[silver fable]

I have a KTC 27" curved 1440P 240hz monitor.

It's not horrible. I paid nothing for it, though, so can't fault the price.

[carmine ibex]

ah

can confirm, I've used night light for that before

I mean, it will affect everything, but it will remove the glaring blue
and it also allows very light settings, which more devices need to do >.> it shouldn't be where my only option is a strong filter as the lowest setting >.>

chances are, your monitor is set way below d65
a bit below is fine, but too much and it can make it hard to look at, and just yucky/wrong

the whites should have a tinge of yellow to them

did I say below? I meant above, I think?

unfortunately, white will.. still be bright
but, at least more tame

[void gale]

it reduces entire brightness intensity but i want to reduce only white colour intensity

I hope i can explain this properly. You know how you can take a browser tab and drag it out of the window and have it become its own window?

how can i merge it back?

Just drag it back into the tab bar for chrome

You have the drag the tab itself i'm pretty sure. Can even shift/ctrl-click to select more tabs for merging/splitting

[old mesa]

[sudden adder]

Nope, you would go to the channel appropriate for your pc. So windows, macos or linux, and if its OBS related.

not really, but #tech-talk if you have general hardware questions is good, or the proper support channel if you have questions about OBS-related use.

you could use a service like Rainwave.cc, which is OCRemix's radio station, if you like gaming themed music. They have a widget as well to show the songs playing, as well as state that you will not issue takedown notices

that is, if you arent dead set on playing mainstream music you dont have a license for

there is also Pretzel Rocks, but i havent used them in quite awhile

ive been running Rainwave for my music since 2018 maybe, and i have yet to get a single strike, takedown or mute in regards to their music

Early on it wasnt bad, but then they got acquired i think, changed around a lot of things, now im just not sure.

[still turret]

huh, how did that slip through

[livid plover]

The weird slashes?

It had forward and backward

[opaque halo]

Sadly - this one has been going around A LOT recently

[marsh helm]

what you mean its dying?

[tall vapor]

it's not dying, there was an A/B test that twitch had a couple months back that broke it, buutt it got fixed said couple months back so even if twitch rolled that out fully by now it's all fine ya

[marsh helm]

oh thank goodness

man i hate fireworks

i was shaking and my dogs were shaking

[terse helm]

wasn't that yesterday?

[marsh helm]

yeah but today i feel soo bad

the fireworks didnt stop till 4am

so i didnt get to sleep till 5

[sudden adder]

i think they meant when GameWisp was dying

since those emotes were from GameWisp

[tall vapor]

ooohhhhhhhh that makes sense

[full fern]

I'm sorry, I freaking hate that too. Oddly enough, now that we live in the sticks there aren't fireworks being set off right next to where we live like when we were in the city. The city was insane, bc cops and fire department said "we can't respond to all the calls"

[marsh helm]

they closed the big show in the city

so i guess ppl just made their own shows

[full fern]

Boo! No fun.

[marsh helm]

ugh sounds like ppl plan to do more

dogs aren't happy and I'm not too

[smoky rapids]

I was referring to gamewisp.

[marsh helm]

ah still sad

[opal timber]

what is this option in the stream delay tab? I am not sure if I have to leave it ticked or not 😮

[scarlet kernel]

bASICALLY IF YOU DISCONNECT, IT HOLDS THE STREAM WHERE IT'S AT UNTIL IT RESUMES, THAT WAY NO CONTENT IS MISSED. tHIS COMES WITH THE EFFECT OF HAVING AN INCREASED DELAY FROM THEN ON.

Oops, caps

Leaving, not willing to retype.

[meager herald]

i hope it goes well

[smoky rapids]

Man.... I missed my chance for Thnickles https://thick-coins.net/

Also fun when you discover an ugly OBS bug that can be "fixed" until fixed.

Should note it's a TEB OBS bug and not on the public builds.

And said bug has become a can't repro

[modern yoke]

I want to create a software that can render a sequence of bmp images given a shadertoy shader. I tried looking online for help but its literally so difficult and complex. Shadertoy shaders use GLSL ES 3.0 language ive been told. Does anyone have any idea where I can start with this?

I tried asking in different forums and discord servers but its like no one knows. I found a python thing called ModernGL which seems promising, but the documentation absolutely SUCKS for beginners. Feels really incomplete

[livid plover]

are you trying to output a shader to .bmp frames, or program a shader to render what you want first?

[modern yoke]

I dont really understand. I think the first thing, have a given shader render .bmp frames

I don’t intend to program a shader from scratch, i have zero experience or knowledge with opengl.

[livid plover]

so you just want to export/save frames from one, should be some tools for that out there. https://github.com/mattdesl/shadertoy-export example

https://github.com/KoltesDigital/shadertoy-exporter alternative

[modern yoke]

Oh yes, the first link looks promising.

I wonder how its done because id like to take this and implement into my own project

Thanks for finding these

[livid plover]

the source is all there, dive in and find out

[compact lark]

when I looked into all the upscaling methods...
libplacebo=w=%dstW%*%factor%:h=%dstH%*%factor%:dithering=none:custom_shader_path=C\\:\\\\Encoders\\\\shaders\\\\
... sharp-bilinear-simple.glsl %codec% %format% 68.%ext%
so you can use libplacebo to call custom shaders by...
libplacebo=dithering=none:custom_shader_path=Drive\\:\\\\path\\\\shaders\\\\shader.file ...
I drag and drop into a cmd file, so I'm not sure how much backslash escaping you need
this is for ffmpeg, calling libplacebo, ymmv.. anime4k, FSR, CAS, and NVscaler worked but sharp bilinear shaders made by others had failed

[compact lark]

addressing an image sequence, then converting one with a shader, a reason why it may not work in what I provided earlier -hwaccel vulkan has to be present otherwise it'll shrug and give you a 0kb output

this is a scaling filter, perhaps I could try something else to see if it works

[marsh helm]

oh this video is fake

[open rune]

Nooooo

[marsh helm]

its 4 videos put together to make it fit the story

[open rune]

Lie to me!

[marsh helm]

the otter community have detectives

have a real video

[sudden adder]

I need that on a tshirt

"the otter community have detectives"

[marsh helm]

yuh we are mostly autistic

and i would imagine autistics make great detectives

hyperfixate for days trying to find every bit of information on a subject?

easy

[wheat karma]

do u think reacher is autistic

[marsh helm]

the show?

[livid plover]

nah, he's just weird. but not in the weird al way

[wheat karma]

Yeah the character

[marsh helm]

Nah

he is just trained at human psychology and mannerisms

[silver fable]

I keep adding to my collection...

[compact lark]

who has more songs about their ex, trent reznor or t.swift?

[left mulch]

I am seeing nine inch nails for the first time next month super excited

[full fern]

So jealous, been wanting to see them since I was 14. Have fun!!

[silver fable]

I haven't been to see NIИ before, but I saw Metallica at Lollapalooza in '96. Amazing show, and lineup.

If curious, here's most of the setlist for the show. https://www.concertarchives.org/concerts/metallica-a7700f16-1283-4b32-8271-0007278dafbd

[prisma dove]

Crap, I feel old. Last concert (big venue) for me was Pink Floyd, the Division Bell/Pulse Tour, Oakland-Alameda Coliseum, April 1994

[silver fable]

Holy crap, now I need to buy the Deluxe edition of Metallica Load. It has the show I went to.

[compact lark]

I know of a grateful dead scene that had recordings of their live shows, I think metallica had one before and after napster era? I wonder if they own it now

guess I'm 4yrs too late, the jump in the fire forum doesn't appear to be populated

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1Q10Z0LW2E
if you get that deluxe edition, I'd be interested in knowing if the band is selling high qualty old concert audio
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGYZJh0Isvo nvm why wouldn't someone the band just upload something to yt..

so it's decent, better than bootleg (I'm not a fan of live performances)
but boy does youtube suck, you can search metallicas channel for 'Irvine 1996' zilch
search youtube instead? '1996 metallica live CA Irvine' has at least 16 results from metallicas channel
from that august 4th 1996 show.

[void gale]

eh steam! what kind of bug is this?

[tall vapor]

could be a caser of you literally just havin gotten those points, to be fair

[void gale]

yeah its just a bug but i got my points :)

[void gale]

my showcase increased a bit finally through using steam points

[amber sparrow]

@wary holly can you elaborate on this exploit? What exactly are these little shitters doing?

[shrewd spire]

Some games do weird rendering which exposes stuff they shouldn't with certain settings

[left mulch]

people not even being able to follow instructions on how to cheat is hilarious to me

[terse helm]

I mean

if they were good at anything

they wouldn't need to cheat

[prisma dove]

For many people, that's true. But for some competitive players, their drive to be the best overrides any ethical consideration. If they aren't number 1 in their sport/game, they will do whatever it takes.

[prisma dove]

And then there are the lazy ones too. Just want the easy path, which sometimes means more work in the end anyway, for little results.

[wary holly]

Among competitive players, I think it has more to do with prize money. It's the worst in bicycle race competitions, either you cheat, or you lose to whose who will cheat.

[prisma dove]

Push the rules until you get caught

[wheat karma]

Imo real competitive players do not cheat, the wannabes cheat

[wary holly]

And then the wannabes win, making "real" competitive players quit. Then you have the current state of cs2, where teams are pulling out because they know they have to either cheat or lose to cheaters.

[wheat karma]

Well if sports organisers can't provide a relatively cheat free environment then idk then there shouldn't be anything to win

[neon spoke]

The events make a profit whether cheating goes undetected or not. It's about money, not integrity. Like so many things.

[wheat karma]

I guess, I was just thinking about stuff like cs2 majors and dota international, hopefully we can assume valve is competent enough to provide a relatively cheat free tournament, otherwise people who actually care about legit competition should stop supporting it but buying cases etc

And hopefully this goes for other big tournaments like LoL etc

I think I'm fairly confident that pros are not cheating at those big LANs so the very top of the competitive scene is clean as can be (no doubt 1 or 2 cheaters will slip through)

Sort of like Olympics

But then again cheating is huge business so who knows how many actually slip past any safeguards

[wary holly]

This is why fighting game competitions are among the last ones worth watching, both the organizers and the participants are very interested in keeping their communities clean.

[void gale]

riot vanguard = no cheat 🕊️

[burnt temple]

Yo can someone check on @random arrow i haven't heard from them in almost 2 months.

[silver fable]

Seeing as they were live yesterday on Twitch, I'm sure they're fine.

[odd idol]

Hello quick question, I changed some recording settings and I forgot what I changed. Is there a way to reset all the settings to default?

[wise bay]

If you need help or have questions about OBS, check out our #support-portal first!

[void gale]

Borderless Vs Full Screen
46c Vs 60c = Cpu temperature

I dont understand if msi afterburner is faulty or if this game really uses more cpu on fullscreen

This happens only if i enable Vsync. But no issues with fps limit.

[livid plover]

call it DWM shenanigans and blame windows, defo don't look deeper into it

[vital siren]

It might not also be the same exact resolution. I know some games detect my resolution weirdly in borderless vs fullscreen (higher than my native res).

[void gale]

I am tired of using pc
always some issues :(

imagine facing bluescreen issue because of riot vanguard kernal

[livid plover]

yikes

[left mulch]

easy solution to this problem at least

[void gale]

I asked chatgpt and it mentions exactly my issue.

but why Riot creates such a type of kernal anticheat?

[left mulch]

another question chatgpt will answer for you

[shrewd spire]

People not being honest

There free tldr

With way less energy consumption

[left mulch]

human answer that will be $1 please

[serene lichen]

yo

wenn i try to make a video my screen is black im new to this and i need your guys help pls if tha tis ok

on obs

[left mulch]

!s yes we can help, head over to the appropriate support channel though

[wise bay]

If you need help or have questions about OBS, check out our #support-portal first!

[serene lichen]

ok

[compact lark]

can't replicate a diff between borderless and fs
I was going to suggest looking at your fan curves if 7w diff was a +15c increase

[void gale]

have u enabled vsync?
ur monitor is 165hz too?
I am facing this issue when i enable gsync compatible.

[terse helm]

aw man

I ordered a new set of rack ears for a server because one of them broke

I just got them

and the same one is broken in the same way!

[livid plover]

straight out the box!?

[terse helm]

they're used parts of course but yeah

I wonder if it's a really common problem or I just got unlucky

[compact lark]

monitor was only set to 120, with rtss framecap at 165.. since config.ini framecap didn't work
it is gsync 165hz 1440p, I just don't use the highest refreshrates because of video

[void gale]

changing fps value in config.ini file working for me .

[compact lark]

my mistake, I had a rtss limit of 60 at the start, with it at 165 now the ingame limiter now works at 120 for example

[smoky rapids]

But you're the bug #development message

[silver fable]

Just a few more layers, and painting two will be complete.

[wanton coral]

I noticed these weird lines when watching an office episode. Made my think my TV was broken but its in the video.

Interestingly If you look at the top edge of the computer monitor and one of the top edges of the filing cabinet they line up with that so I wonder if its an encoding artifact or some editing trickery.

[dusky swift]

am i nuts or did there used to be an exit button here

[jaunty fulcrum]

there used to be, yeah

[dusky swift]

tragic

i can live without it but it will take some getting used to

[jaunty fulcrum]

oh i've already hit Settings a few times when meaning to exit, and studio mode when meaning to open settings. I get it. 😂

[dusky swift]

whyd they remove it anyways

[left mulch]

OBS premium is releasing next week and the exit button is a paid feature

[jaunty fulcrum]

It was taking up unnecessary space, very few other apps have an exit button like it, and it's a smaller step towards larger changes later.

[dusky swift]

fair enough i suppose

[wary holly]

"unnecessary", yeah, right, now there's blank space instead
i wonder who'll be the first to make a plugin to add it back

[terse helm]

https://github.com/gxalpha/obs-exit-button/

[shrewd spire]

It was meant as a joke(the plugin)

But some people will enjoy it

[amber sparrow]

Mine doesn't have any blank space

[terse helm]

no place to write my name

[amber sparrow]

I do love me some tay tay

But i prevail did that song better

[boreal magnet]

god that's hilarious

what a champ

[wanton coral]

Wow the UI looks really bloated these days, or is that a custom theme?

[sudden adder]

not a custom theme, just the default one. Classic theme is still available if you prefer that one

[amber sparrow]

What do you mean bloated? That's a really small corner of my entire obs window

[bold glen]

And you can now set the density self. So you can make that very compact for example.

[amber sparrow]

Yea, we haz options

[wanton coral]

I switched to the classic on years ago and never looked back

[jaunty fulcrum]

well, now's the perfect time to try Yami in Compact mode!

this is yami grey in compact:

[wanton coral]

ew rounded corners

I know they're slightly rounded in the classic theme but nowhere near as much

[sudden adder]

not a fan of squircles and squectangles eh?

(i just wanted to say squectangle, even though it makes zero sence in the context 😛 )

[wanton coral]

I think 3px or less curve is acceptable on corners but certainly not to the point its apperciable

[sudden adder]

full pill aqua buttons and pinstripe background or riot 🙂 /s

[jaunty fulcrum]

there's probably a yami variant that has rounding disabled

[brave ermine]

hi

i have an update today and when i start streaming on fb i cant connect to server

[jaunty fulcrum]

It's a known issue, we have a fix planned. You can downgrade in the meantime.

[knotty spear]

alright so why the hell was the exit button removed in the latest OBS version? it is literally unusable now, I cannot use OBS without the exit button. it is literally like suddenly and abruptly removing the numpad from keyboards forever, you can live without it but it is a damn shame to not have it.

[amber sparrow]

Because it was taking up space for little reason, and very non standard for similar software. I can't recall any software on my pc that has a physical exit button on the interface

Close it the same way 99% of software out there gets closed

[knotty spear]

Well for the past two weeks or so I had OBS, the exit button was right there. it is muscle memory for me. and now it is just gone.

[amber sparrow]

If you got used to it being there in 2 weeks, you'll also get used to it being gone

[knotty spear]

Roblox users were told to get over the old oof sound being removed. and they never did. especially me!

[sudden adder]

i dont think ive used the Exit button in the last 10 years ive used OBS

[bold glen]

yeah.. There are people here who had 7+ years. So you will get used to it. (i only press settings accidentally 2 times this week... ^^)

[amber sparrow]

I think ive personally used it 2x in 6.5 years

[jaunty fulcrum]

It was taking up unnecessary space, very few other apps have an exit button like it, and it's a smaller step towards larger changes later.

[terse helm]

🤔 none of my current keyboards have numpads

[amber sparrow]

Mine either

[knotty spear]

What?

My keyboard does, I mean like I always expect a keyboard to have a numpad.

[tall vapor]

yeah no numpads here either 🤷‍♀️

[amber sparrow]

I don't think I've had a keeb with numpad in 4+ years?

[neon spoke]

Man, I just got a Kinesis and bought an auxiliary numpad so I'd still have one. I still need one on the rare occasion I make a spreadsheet and also to drive Caves of Qud.

[wheat karma]

I'm with you, still on ps/2 keyboard with numpad and window 7

Bill gates can't make me change

[knotty spear]

Who the hell is bill gates?

[amber sparrow]

Must be a youngin

[wheat karma]

My uncle

[opaque halo]

🤦‍♂️

[amber sparrow]

Yo stroke me off a mil or 2

[haughty tartan]

🐧

[wheat karma]

You must have nice uncles, even my real uncle would not give me a penny xd

[amber sparrow]

[knotty spear]

I actually have no idea who Bill Gates is. this dudes name is only vaguely familiar to me.

[terse helm]

I mean unless you're an accountant, a numpad is just a waste of space on your desk

[wheat karma]

Hello, nice to see you alien friend

[terse helm]

just like the exit button was in obs

[knotty spear]

Well maybe your desk is just really tiny?

[haughty tartan]

expecting the unless part...

[terse helm]

no my desk is huge

but I have two computers

[amber sparrow]

My desk is pretty decent size. But low dpi = GIB MORE MOUSE SPACE

[terse helm]

the real question is, why of the three differen ways to close obs (exit button, window X, menu exit) do you cling to the one most easily misclicked?

[knotty spear]

what?

Do you like have them on your desk or something?

[terse helm]

no

but that means two sets of input devices and four monitors

well technically one is on my desk actually

but it's an iMac

[knotty spear]

Why do you have more than one monitor dude?

[amber sparrow]

Software solution for just 1 set of input devices not good enough?

[knotty spear]

Are you a streamer or something?

[prisma dove]

Why not

[terse helm]

@amber sparrow never really liked it

[amber sparrow]

1 monitor is pain

2 is bare minimum

3 is ideal
