if you put kachin in the sun, do you get a pretty golden dragon?

[uneven spear]

Yes, DMing the art.

...no, i'm a pale guy who'll blind anybody who dare look, but i wear my bathing shorts

[amber sparrow]

I've not been to the beach yet this year. First day at pool house I'm gonna BURN! But day 2 and 3, I should get some decent color.

Okay, Sapiens thinks it's fine and I think I over-react and complicate everything, so here's sundried-Kachin but not in DM, owo. Still spoilering anyway because I'm me. See, Google does Google Doodle for holidays, so Kachin does similar and gets recolored for holidays. This is lunar new year, owo.

@quartz furnace Horde Mode doesn't seem to want to give me the 2 of my most favorite guns 😦

[quartz furnace]

Like it's just not doing it at all or the random chance that it hasnt at that point?

It can def be annoying, but it also has to give you SSG before the one challenge in the 2nd stage

[little glacier]

It's the damn RNG

[quartz furnace]

I haven't done it in a bit, but I saw something about how they reduced the points needed for slayer rank, what is it right now?

[little glacier]

Idk anything about the ranks, I only play to have fun once in a while.

[quartz furnace]

I should try it again. I'm a bit rusty because I did the Mars Core ML a couple days ago and actually died lol

[little glacier]

Oh I don't think I've done a master level, like, ever yet.

[quartz furnace]

Them's fun

[little glacier]

Also, is it just my ADHD, or is it actually difficult to try and 100% the campaign on first try?

I did like 10 attempts and something always efs up and I end up missing something.

[quartz furnace]

You mean like without going back and replaying levels?

[little glacier]

Yeah

[quartz furnace]

It's not absurdly hard but yeah it's easy to miss a few things

[little glacier]

10 attempts straight, huh.

[quartz furnace]

I have a weird part of my brain that remembers secrets in doom games really well, I can just replay the originals and know where most are lol

[scarlet kernel]

It's like me and the fact I've memorized every single quest in the first 5 worlds of Wizard101

[carmine ibex]

I think the "movie in under size" thing is dumb anyway...

one time I did compress a whole movie (with audio) to 8mb for fun... it was... not very good

[silver fable]

I can't even tell what that disaster is.

[carmine ibex]

a 100 minute movie compressed down to 8mb and it includes audio XD

[dawn fossil]

With the quality of looking at a reflection of the movie in a puddle of motor oil

[carmine ibex]

audio is about 5kbps, video is about 6kbps, I think... 11kbps total

[tender raven]

audio is 5kbps?

[carmine ibex]

compressed using CELT-only Opus audio forced to 8khz... it has music parts and those get really butchered if you do hybrid codec... but the hybrid codec does make voices slightly more recognizable... there's trade-offs

I feel so old. A wikipedia article mentioned that Vista was a thing in 2006, which means Vista has been around for half of my life.

[dawn fossil]

Yep. It came out when I was 16, I'm 32

I loved Vista

I kinda miss its look. It looked great.

[tall vapor]

didn't vista come out in 07?

[dawn fossil]

Nov '06

[hearty stirrup]

the threshold for "half of one's life" is windows XP for me

[livid plover]

vista was nice at first. the little desktop widgets, etc

[tall vapor]

not Jan 07?

ah, yea

nov 06=rtm

gotcha

[uneven spear]

Vista was my favorite windows OS on appearance, just shy of Longhorn.

[tall vapor]

My fav win still was 2k

[wraith haven]

eh, it just looked like 98ME 😉

[dawn fossil]

It was lighter!

[tall vapor]

It left me alone

xp? No, that thing was annoying

[wraith haven]

I had a very brief romance with 2000 before jumping to XP on release

[tall vapor]

7 was fine in 2k mode

[livid plover]

everytime i hear "windows server" i can't help but think about win 2000

[dawn fossil]

I liked Vista's Aero over 7's Aero

[uneven spear]

Same.

[tall vapor]

I never liked aero

[uneven spear]

You seen Enlightenment? The default theme from yesteryear is like, owoey, owo.

[dawn fossil]

I'll gladly take Aero over whatever the fuck Windows 8 was

[tall vapor]

nah, never liked that DE

[dawn fossil]

Windows 10, eh, better.

[hearty stirrup]

It's still kind of funny to this day that the limitations of windows' networking stack are still not condusive to running a bittorrent tracker properly, but running a linux vm on a windows host works 2 orders of magnitude better

[tall vapor]

as long as ya run it in bridge mode, aye 😅

[hearty stirrup]

yep

the network tap for bridge mode operates at a layer that bypasses windows' tcp stack

[tall vapor]

cause that practically bypasses all of the windows network stack

aye

[hearty stirrup]

and it's been this way since windows 2000 at least

[wraith haven]

I wonder if the network stack received any meaningful updates since adding ipv6 support 15 years ago

[scarlet kernel]

oh god dont get me started

[uneven spear]

Okay.

[dawn fossil]

I want to get Cailan started.

[uneven spear]

Feets no! Don't the Cailan!

[wraith haven]

I really liked the aesthetics of Win8 but then UI/UX was horrible

It was ahead of its time

on a touchscreen device it would have worked well

[tall vapor]

it was great in the form of windows phone 8

well

[shy quartz]

;-; so i cant capture league gameplay

[tall vapor]

not great

[scarlet kernel]

Windows 8 was an objectively crappy experience for 90% of the Windows userbase. It was literally only DECENT on touchscreens, and even then the normal Windows 7 ui worked better because the UI was at least remotely consistent. Windows 8 only shoehorned the Metro UI partially which caused a ton of disconnect between other programs and it's been a problem to this day. Windows 8 was such a regression they had to release an entire new build just to fix the horrid excuse of a UX for desktop users

[wise bay]

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

[tall vapor]

but it was kinda ahead of it's time

but ye, windows phone was already on it's deathbed at that point

[scarlet kernel]

Vista was objectively a good OS. It was ahead of it's time performance wise though, which is why it got a bad rap. It never performed well on the hardware of the time and therefore people only ever got a bad experience.

[tall vapor]

well yea

[scarlet kernel]

Windows 8 was a bad OS at it's core

[tall vapor]

if a product doesn't work in context to the time it was released in it wasn't that great of a product

[uneven spear]

It performed fine on my stuff, cuz I wasn't trying to shove it on bad hardware with aero turned on. Low-end stuff had aero off. Worked fine!

[tall vapor]

OS? Maybe. Product? Hell no

[scarlet kernel]

Same with Windows 10 initially due to removal of useful features

[wary holly]

"initially"? that would imply it's gotten better since then

[uneven spear]

It has, though not as good as older ones.

[scarlet kernel]

The features were added back. Now it's mediocre, not bad.

[tall vapor]

win 10 is.... serviceable

[uneven spear]

Example: We got mspaint back!

[wary holly]

microsoft stole too much credit for what isn't their doing, windows 10 only runs faster because today's computers are faster than 10 year old computers

[scarlet kernel]

Corrrrrectamundo

Same with 7

[tall vapor]

aka better than 11 is

imho

[scarlet kernel]

Same code as Vista

But hardware was stronger

So it ran aero better

[tall vapor]

win 10 was a step back to windows being windows

all of that was scrapped /w 11

[wary holly]

i disagree, earlier builds of vista were so unstable i wouldn't be able to run them even if i wanted to

[tall vapor]

vista was usable come SP2

But yea

I don't miss it

cause damn was that thing ugly

[wary holly]

i don't miss the stability issues, but visually, vista and microsoft office 2007 were microsoft's best designs, it mostly went downhill from there

[tall vapor]

agree to disagree

[uneven spear]

2007 had ribbons! I no like ribbon interfaces! Gimme 2003.

[silver fable]

So, @shell locust , I read somewhere that using the frame limiter in the nvidia control panel since it's driver based? Not sure how true that was, though.

[tall vapor]

yeeeeeppp, the ribbon interface isn't great

[shell locust]

There's the driver-level limiter, yeah, but generally speaking you only want to use that if there isn't an in-engine limiter

[sick cedar]

game > rtss > control panel

[silver fable]

Wow, I was completely backwards.

[wary holly]

apparently, nvcp is preferable to rtss, but in-engine limiters are able to favor lower input latency at the cost of worse frametimes

[sick cedar]

not for latency, at least last time I checked, and I trust battle(non)sense completely 😂

but yeah, maybe you're right, depending on what you're evaluating, latency vs stable / flat frametimes

[wary holly]

i think consistent latency is better than lower but inconsistent latency, or maybe i got too used to playing at 120hz 120fps borderless

[sick cedar]

I tend to agree with you

[wary holly]

i can reduce latency by 2f, but it feels uncomfortable for some reason

[sick cedar]

but I dont think that was tested, so I guess thats where I'm coming from. Dont even know how you would test that past RTSS or the game having built in monitoring

[wary holly]

if you have a 60hz display, the difference between fullscreen and borderless is very obvious, and at 30hz it's impossible not to notice

[shell locust]

I think people way underestimate the value of consistent input lag and frame pacing

[wary holly]

i certainly don't, but yes, very few people seem to run fps limiters

[shell locust]

It would blow a lot of gamer/streamer minds just how far things go keeping frame pacing consistent in the broadcast and cinema world

[livid plover]

what, you mean there's a reason they have toothed drive on film, and not just 2 wheels clamping and hoping it doesn't slip slightly?

[shell locust]

something like that

[silver fable]

Also need a place to put the dolby digital info, that's between the sprocket holes. 😀

[jaunty fulcrum]

Worse - at the time, the Windows team purposefully didn't talk to the Windows Phone team to get a full understanding of how/why Metro is designed well, so it had its own flaws.

[jaunty fulcrum]

Unfortunately all the good things they learned/created in Windows 8 got scrapped and never returned, so Win 10/11 are worse experiences with touch as a result.

[wary holly]

the virtual touchpad is a good addition, i used third-party software for this functionality in 2016

microsoft's implementation is less feature-rich, but it's better than nothing when i'm using someone else's touchscreen PC

[uneven spear]

Is that the "move your thumb on a touchscreen to move a mouse instead of directly tapping stuff" thing? I need it!

[edgy yarrow]

if I didn't have so many god forsaken windows programs I need/want I'd be using exclusively linux. fortunately I can just switch rooms between my windows and linux pcs now

[dawn fossil]

Windows 11: it's not Windows 10, it's not Mac OS X. So we added one and hoped nobody would notice.

[tall vapor]

That's a mood. If there weren't some windows exclusives I still need sometimes I would be able to scrap that win 10 VM

[karmic tiger]

windows 11 : it's literally windows 10 but we added one to make it look like something changed

[dawn fossil]

I only need my Win10 VM because of work. Sometimes my students write software that only works on Windows, but I still have to mark it.

[edgy yarrow]

no windows 11 is a firm downgrade from 10

[karmic tiger]

oh, mb XD

[tall vapor]

Found the person who doesn't need a win vm

[dawn fossil]

Well, it's an upgrade for me. Win10 ARM is so slow compared to Win11 ARM.

[jaunty fulcrum]

"we also rewrote the taskbar and start menu from scratch so that you'd lose core productivity features"

[tall vapor]

well yea. That's one of the things they kept out of win 10 so that 11 sounds like a better deal

[livid plover]

"but look, it centers now"

[dawn fossil]

We heard you liked the Dock. So we … made it … sort of.

[tall vapor]

just like the scheduler update that's nice to have for alder CPUs

no technical reason for both of those things to be 11 exclusives

[livid plover]

forcing you to upgrade, getting rid of maintaining win 10 sooner

[civic quarry]

Today's lunch. Just a little toast 😋

[dawn fossil]

Just a wee little toast

[livid plover]

that's a thicc toast

[jaunty fulcrum]

nah it's just a downgraded version of the windows 7 taskbar

I could honestly talk about Windows forever 😂

[dawn fossil]

I always considered the W7 taskbar a downgraded Dock to begin with, so :P

[jaunty fulcrum]

So many good and bad choices over the past 15+ years

[livid plover]

stockholm syndrome huh

[jaunty fulcrum]

Except for Jumplists

[tall vapor]

jumplist?

[dawn fossil]

Only for the apps that supported jump lists properly, which not enough did/do

[jaunty fulcrum]

all the important ones did

Steam does, even

[dawn fossil]

Just like the equivalent within the W7 start menu

[tall vapor]

okay, seems to only support em correctly on win

[dawn fossil]

I didn't realise, they have a dock menu too

[jaunty fulcrum]

it's a windows 7+ feature 😛

[dawn fossil]

Tells you how often I look lol

[tall vapor]

cause I only get those options from the tray icon

[jaunty fulcrum]

yeah unfortunately Jumplists have been downgraded/phased out in Win11

[uneven spear]

[tall vapor]

tray icon vs tasklist (top=tray, bottom=tasklist)

[jaunty fulcrum]

Nah just fascination with software and the software development process. And the "politics" of a company the size of MS.

[dawn fossil]

The left hand never speaks to the right

[tall vapor]

but the recents and stuff are supported

so it's prolly just steam being steam

🤷‍♀️

[dawn fossil]

That's on Plasma, right?

[tall vapor]

yup

[jaunty fulcrum]

added before or after windows 7? 😛

[tall vapor]

and the example I showed where it does work is deadbeef

[tall vapor]

🤷‍♀️

I used to use gnome back then

before gnome 3 came along

[jaunty fulcrum]

Or is ordered not to <_<

[dawn fossil]

It's weird, that seems to be what's happening at Apple. Still not sure if their heart is behind SwiftUI or UIKit for Mac. Seems to be neither.

Seem to be going through their Windows 8 phase

(until Alan Dye gets out of there)

[jaunty fulcrum]

Making software is complicated. Who knew.

[dawn fossil]

It is. Sometimes there are swings and sometimes there are misses.

It's when a company starts missing repeatedly that they start to become a case study for a bunch of Hacker News threads attributing the misses to this or that

[smoky rapids]

Just make software

[tall vapor]

as we all know everything that's wrong with the current lin landscape is cause of systemd

obviously

[dawn fossil]

…

Yeah, that's it

[tall vapor]

it sure is!

[dawn fossil]

lul

[wary holly]

i don't think kde4 (2008) has jump lists, so it must have been added after the release of windows 7 (2009)

[edgy yarrow]

I love doing this

[uneven spear]

Excuse me but I think openrc is great yes.

[dawn fossil]

I heard a podcast interview you did a couple years ago, it sounds like making software really is your bag

If it weren't OBS, it'd be something else

[edgy yarrow]

I took a break for a bit just recently and was working on some other stuff

even when I take a break I'm programming

[tall vapor]

As long as ya don't say that systemd is somehow the worst thing ever&you aren't very vocal bout it it's fine by me

[dawn fossil]

I've been coding all my holiday, which is over on Sunday

[tall vapor]

cause that's sth I can't stand

those "x bad" peeps

but why is it bad? Tell me, I wanna know

[edgy yarrow]

I wrote a vulkan renderer for my game engine so I could learn the new graphics apis

[dawn fossil]

There are so many other hills to die on in the Linux space, systemd introducing some bloat so that it's not viable to run on a toaster is the least of any distro's issues

[tall vapor]

ye

systemd isn't for toasterlinux

but guess what

that's fine

[uneven spear]

I just like Openrc's syntax better. -w-.

[tall vapor]

toasterlinux isn't going to use openrc or plan9 either

[dawn fossil]

So that your learnings go into OBS? :P

[smoky rapids]

Masochist I see

[dawn fossil]

I wonder if anybody ever got launchd ported to Linux. I've heard of it on BSD.

[edgy yarrow]

that's the hope. my game engine has a more simple renderer, but it's somewhat similar to obs

[tall vapor]

no need for launchd to be on lin, tbf. Cause systemd is that

it's linux-y launchd with spice

[dawn fossil]

I know, I just remember it was considered back in the day

Around the time systemd and upstart were twinkles in their development teams' eyes

[edgy yarrow]

I didn't really want to do it for obs yet because obs is more complicated

[tall vapor]

yea. but it was never a real option thanks to license incompatibilities

[dawn fossil]

Of course, Canonical has a very strong not-invented-here syndrome — they seem to have shed that somewhat lately

[tall vapor]

That's canonical for ya, ye

Remember Mir?

[edgy yarrow]

I try not to

[tall vapor]

[dawn fossil]

Mir was Canonical's Wayland, wasn't it?

[edgy yarrow]

not sure what they were thinking going against the flow of the linux community like that

[dawn fossil]

I think Canonical considered itself a sort of Apple-but-for-Linux. Had to have their own things for their own OS.

When it first came out, it was Ubuntu Linux. Then it was just Ubuntu. I think that marked a shift in their thinking.

They seem to have moved away from that a bit, though.

Same with Snap, I guess.

The idea that developers would specifically target Ubuntu. But no, they don't.

[smoky rapids]

There was only 1 good Mir.

When is the server picture going to change back to normal

[prisma dove]

Define "normal"

Because it looks fine the way it is

[little glacier]

I understand that, but that argument can only be effective if YouTube would at least care about the quality of the 720p and lower resolutions.

[livid plover]

Get hyped for 10-bit/HDR coming eventually so you can enjoy the entire rainbow range of colors and more!

[prisma dove]

They have used this one for almost two months now, so "the one they always use" seems to be this one now. I've heard that each time someone asks about "changing it back", one more week is added to keeping it. I believe we are well into 2023 now.

[uneven spear]

By my estimates, we're actually only up to October, but 1-2 more and it's December.

Hmmm, I could have sworn we celebrated crossing New Years by now.

I wonder if we will get enough comments about the server icon that it extends to July 2023!

[uneven spear]

I would be happy for better recognition for Veterans. And better support. It doesn't have to be one day. And supporting people shouldn't be exclusive to one group or another. It's not a competition.

oops, fast broom.

[livid plover]

support everybody, bother nobody

[uneven spear]

Does that mean more help in #windows-support ?

[nocturne scarab]

!csgo

[wise bay]

Valve has implemented a Trusted mode which does not allow OBS to hook CS:GO using Game Capture. Read more in their announcement post. Additionally, they have no plans on allowing OBS in Trusted mode.

We recommend running the game in either windowed or borderless fullscreen and using a Window Capture source instead.

Alternately, you can launch the game with -allow_third_party_software .

[uneven spear]

cs-go-to-ws? :D?!!?

[prisma dove]

Nope, service support is a totally different environment. Sometimes support channels are a nice place. Other times, it feels like Manhattan in the movie Escape From New York.

saw this last night 🙂

me and my friends went down a rabbit hole of all their performances a few weeks ago

[nocturne scarab]

Yolo, ever bothered setting up stuff like keyboard shortcuts (but words instead of one letter) to bring up your own commands, like that "send two screenshots" thing?

[civic quarry]

when i'm at home i have it in my notes app on my mac but apart from that i just type it out. i respond in here off 3 different computers + my phone so i never bothered.

not a terrible idea. also not a terrible idea to just got a bot command for the two screenshots one as the info isn't in the log and there's no other way to get it.

[nocturne scarab]

[sudden hearth]

A friend of mine told me that last month he was silently banned from this server, and he says he has no idea why

Is it at all possible for me to inquire about what the reason behind it could've been?

[civic quarry]

tagging @still turret on this.

[sudden hearth]

ty

[uneven spear]

Due to a bot raid, the server had to change policy to only allow people with verified phone numbers. If they didn't have that, then they'd appear to have been banned. If they can rejoin now, that was probably it, owo.

[sudden hearth]

Huh I'm not aware of that happening. I mean, I have no verified phone number on my discord acc, and I refuse to do so despite having nitro.
Or do you mean, being allowed to join, and not a "to talk" policy

[uneven spear]

I'm unsure if it'd be a ban-ban or if it'd be a mute. I know Skeletonbow disappears during those times, but that's also the extent of my knowledge. I also gotta sleep so there. -w-.

[sudden hearth]

Well, I mean, if he was kicked he could rejoin, but if he's banned he is unable to re-join this server.
So far he doesn't know why he's banned because apparently it was done with zero communication

I'm at the very least curious about wanting to know the possible reason

Alright, ty and gn

[uneven spear]

Hang out for Fenrir then, owo. If they can't rejoin right now, then that's far above me. -w-.

[scarlet kernel]

new LTT vid on their lab has me very excited for the future of the channel

[livid plover]

same, some very cool stuff in there

[scarlet kernel]

I think the fact that Antoine is allowed so much free time while running tests that he can create a side project for the company in unreal 5 and the boss allows it?

It is great

Not to mention how excited I am to see how they evolve the machine learning CV for benchmarking

If they open source that it would be a boon to the entire technological space.

It's been a VERY long time since I've been legitimately excited for the direction a Youtube channel is going

[still turret]

I kinda fell off LTT when they turned in to a... goofs channel? I guess? They didn't take things as serious and really went lax on their testing and review process, but sounds like they hired some pretty good folks lately.

[amber sparrow]

I think their move was the right one. Want hardcore in depth details? Tech Jesus has you covered.

Want semi outside the box, techy still, but e joyable, ltt

Want the "almost normal guy" tech aspect, jayztwocents

If they can make it through WU in time I might hit them with the Dell updater next!

[scarlet kernel]

Right? It's MASSIVELY impressive what their plans are.

It seems they're switching from goofy to more "mass data in a newbie-friendly view"

The fact that they plan on having a database of benchmarking values that is publicly accessible...

I see this being a good thing overall, for everyone

I actually am very much in the camp that they are more than capable of doing so

If ANYONE could pull this off, it would be LTT or GN.

And honestly, I hope that LTT and GN do more join content in general.

They seem to be perfectly outfitted to fulfill each others weaknesses

[civic quarry]

don't want to derail the convo but Matty, did you see the school sushidragon is looking at buying?

Is this a new install, or did it just get new updates?

These are old work computers that weren't being managed properly and have like no updates. I'm really trying to fix a problem with Defender not getting deployed properly

This is already 4 hours of Win7 being a giant baby and needing me to have it search again and reboot 20 times to make it through the updates

[civic quarry]

without going into too much details, right now my company doesn't have any way to differentiate a live environment vs a dev environment. i'm working on the project to create a dev environment for most of the programmers at the company to work in but all our work is split amongst 5 different types of VMs and what we're building has to work for all of them.

[dire bluff]

this is a question regarding building a gaming computer. Is thermal grease necessary? I have seen all kinds of answers for both yay and nay (majority of the answers are for yes - use it). I figured an OBS group would be filled with people that have built gaming computers, so it is likely a safe place to ask.

[civic quarry]

what do you mean?

thermal grease is the same thing as thermal paste right? if so, yes, you should absolutely have thermal paste on your CPU if you want your computer to work

[jaunty fulcrum]

additionally, the only place you should put thermal paste is on the flat/shiny side on your CPU, the part that'll touch your cooler

[civic quarry]

*to work longer than 5 seconds

[jaunty fulcrum]

bonus: some coolers come with a thermal pad pre-applied, in that case you shouldn't add a second layer of thermal paste

[civic quarry]

^ i have never applied thermal paste personally thanks to these lovely coolers matt speaks of

👍

[open rune]

Clean it off and add extra fancy thermal paste

Or a graphite pad!

[jaunty fulcrum]

don't do this 😛

[civic quarry]

when people talk about building a PC for some reason my gut reaction is to recommend a prebuilt

i have to remind myself how enjoyable building a PC actually is though

[open rune]

If they need a recommendation then a prebuilt is probably the right one

[jaunty fulcrum]

gotta start somewhere!

[civic quarry]

Built my first two years ago and it sure was fun

yeah i built my first one in 2006 (i was 11) and man did i mess that thing up

didn't break the second one though so i consider that a win

[scarlet kernel]

graphite pads are always my recommendations for completely new people using non-topend processors.

YOu're using a Ryzen/i 5/7? Graphite pad and a decent air cooler will last you a decade.

[silver fable]

Does that mean not to use toothpaste on my 5950x?

[dire bluff]

I honestly don't know. This is my first build and the CPU directions shows thermal paste/grease in the steps but the youtube video build I was watching didn't use it.

[scarlet kernel]

Yu should always have thermal compound of some type no matter what

Was the tutorial featuring a water cooler?

If so- the paste was most likely preinstalled.

[civic quarry]

i personally get anxiety around messing up thermal paste for some reason even though it's easy to apply so i always get a cooler with it pre-applied as others have mentioned.

not trying to pass my anxiety to you though...it's nothing to worry about 😄

[dire bluff]

Exactly....I only spent a couple hundred bucks on all the parts because the guy was desperate to sell and needed the money. I almost feel like I robbed him. Anyway, if I'm going to build one, I'd rather do it after spending a couple hundred than over a thousand.

[dire bluff]

I think it did. Mine doesn't have the cooler, it just has a fan, four screws and a power cord

[scarlet kernel]

I assume yours has like... a metal tower type dealio?

sorta smallish maybe?

[dire bluff]

Yes. I would pull it out and look but it's boxed up at the moment and I don't want to wake my wife up. lol.

[scarlet kernel]

Yep- that's your cooler. And chances are if you're buying used, it has no paste.

SO yep, you need thermal paste.

I'd recommend Arctic MX5, it's cheap!

[uneven spear]

Use paste. The youtube-guy messed up.

[dire bluff]

Thanks. I was leaning that way anyway. I'm actually leaning toward taking it to a computer shop and letting them put it together. The thing that gives me the most anxiety is there are like a bunch of cords hanging from the chassy. Most of them are labeled but I have no idea where they go and I have a feeling after getting it put together it won't work and I won't be able to figure out why.

[scarlet kernel]

Welp, that's the cool thing about PC building. In 90% of cases, nothign will go into the wrong place.

Almost everything is keyed.

(unless it's a modular PSU, in which case, you need a manual.)

[uneven spear]

A lot of cords are intended to not be connected anywhere. Don't connect stuff just cuz the wire exists. Make sure you know why it's gotta go where it's going. This is especially true of those wires that have like one end in the PSU and then a chain of like four outputs.

[civic quarry]

if you have any friends who have built a PC before, now would be a perfect time to invite them over for beers/PC building.

[scarlet kernel]

Oh hell yeah

[dire bluff]

I was thinking that too. I will make some invites tomorrow. Thanks everyone.

[scarlet kernel]

I did that with my friend, it was super chill, and she said she would not have had as much fun with a guide

And now she's built two other PCs on her own!

(it's an addicting hobby)

#windows-support message OBS reports that it began recording to an .mkv, but the computer in question lost power mid-recording. There is no trace of the file anywhere. I helped Amber look everywhere for it, and even had them download Everything!, but it's just /gone/. Neither of us have a clue why and the file is important to her. Does anyone have any ideas?

Likewise, as far as I can tell, this isn't OBS' fault, but can anyone confirm this to any degree? Data loss scares me. <w<'

This is one of the few times when "build a bridge and get over it" doesn't feel dismissive 🌉

I played Portal for the first time today \o/

3.5 hrs

[uneven spear]

OwO!

[livid plover]

had a lovely time?

[copper notch]

Portal and Portal 2 are a lot of fun. Multiplayer P2 is great also, as long as the other player is into puzzle games like that as well.

[dawn fossil]

It was fun enough

Game was nice and short, so it didn't outstay its welcome

[livid plover]

they're great for that

sufficiently entertaining and non-dragged out to be very good to a lot of people

[dawn fossil]

I hope P2 is as short

[uneven spear]

It's longer, but somehow /better/.

[dawn fossil]

Well, we'll see

I plan to play it tomorrow

[uneven spear]

It's also split into segments, so take breaks, owo. (You'll have to identify and define the segments yourself, though.)

[livid plover]

you're in for a treat probably

[uneven spear]

I like this so much better than it was ten years ago. Today, "oh my gosh you're in for a fun time!" -- Ten years ago, "omg what's wrong with you you never played obliviion wtf" <w<'

[livid plover]

you didn't!?

[uneven spear]

I didn't!!

[dawn fossil]

I only played an Elder Scrolls game for the first time last year

Skyrim

Not for me

[uneven spear]

I've seen bits and pieces of it. Also seems to not be for me. o.=.o.

[copper notch]

Portal 2 is quite a lot longer, but it has a deeper story, humour and other elements that make it fantastic.

[dawn fossil]

If anything, the story and humour were annoying me greatly in P1

But again, we'll see tomorrow

[copper notch]

Cave Johnson rocks

[dawn fossil]

I guess I'll be playing it over a couple of sessions

[copper notch]

🙂

[livid plover]

enjoy tomorrow!

[elfin nova]

why's the pride theme logo still there?

[dawn fossil]

Because every time someone asks about it, we leave it up another week 🙂

[uneven spear]

Gay people still exist outside of June, owo.

[elfin nova]

oooooh

right said

[dawn fossil]

It's a bit of a tradition to keep it up every time it gets asked about

[uneven spear]

That worked this time? o_o Normally people just get a bit weird when I mention that. This time it /worked/? O_O

[elfin nova]

yeah

[uneven spear]

Oh my gosh. o_o

[dawn fossil]

Like not bothering to put the Xmas tree away at January

[livid plover]

Also it's just in preperation for the upcoming HDR update aka ALL THE COLORS

[elfin nova]

noice

[dawn fossil]

WIDE COLOR PRIDE

[uneven spear]

Echo51: Wouldn't it be fancy if, when V28 hit, we got rid of the banding in the logo? XD

[livid plover]

[dawn fossil]

Both pride for the LGBTQIA+ community and pride at all the hard work people have done to bring us HDR support

[elfin nova]

true efforts unleashed

[uneven spear]

Echo your hair is trying to be me.

[dawn fossil]

I like that purple to cyan gradient

Looks like a popsicle

[livid plover]

I do love that color gradient, sadly not my emojo's lol

[uneven spear]

Oh, okay.

[elfin nova]

how's everyone doin this fine day/night

[uneven spear]

I was hangry, am recovering now. Now am just regular-levels of bothered at bad documentation, owo.

[tall vapor]

I'm currently waiting for my food to be done

just another 1 1/2 hours or so

[uneven spear]

Cookie you're a cookie, just eat yourself.

[dawn fossil]

I am great. I had oyakotoast. Like oyakodon (chicken and egg) but on toast instead of rice. Patent pending.

[tall vapor]

Doesn't work as I need to introduce additional energy into my system

[elfin nova]

glad you're good now

[uneven spear]

Cookie: Photosynthesize.

[tall vapor]

Nuh

The sun is a deadly laser

[uneven spear]

Thank! OwO!

[elfin nova]

wow, why not just command it?

[elfin nova]

sounds japanese, is it?

[livid plover]

Fissionable cookie time

[dawn fossil]

Yep

[tall vapor]

doesn't work either, as I would still need to add additional fissile material to keep it going

[elfin nova]

exactly

[tall vapor]

Right

[uneven spear]

Cinnamon.

[elfin nova]

i'm just awaiting to begin my mock test.

[tall vapor]

a ton of the energy that enters my body is radiated away

[uneven spear]

You are a deadly laser!

[carmine ibex]

I like the idea of not changing the logo RIGHT at the end of the month... I think 6 to 8 weeks is a great idea

[tall vapor]

heat=radiation

[elfin nova]

you're from Chernobyl?

[tall vapor]

we're well into 2024 by now, though

[uneven spear]

I've been keeping track and I read every message in every channel every day, including backscroll. We're on December 8th so far.

[tall vapor]

awh

[elfin nova]

great

[carmine ibex]

[elfin nova]

fastracking the past

[uneven spear]

Sorry, November 8th, I brainfart'd.

[tall vapor]

nov 8th 22?

yea

we need to make it to june 23

cause at that point we get another refresh

[livid plover]

[elfin nova]

another day

another shot to the zenith

[uneven spear]

Dinosaur time!?

It'd be good timing, some people on my server wanna poke a new map, so we'd all get started fresh and have no idea what's what or where things are and and and and and @w@

[livid plover]

[uneven spear]

Echo can come too.

[tall vapor]

huh

[livid plover]

(ark)

[tall vapor]

ah

[silver fable]

What a unique username.

[scarlet kernel]

Welp. I was going to make something to eat with what little we have

Got all the wet ingredients together

Went to add milk

Someone left the top off it turns out, so the milk was spoiled.

So I just ruined a days worth of food because SOMEONE is a dickhead who doesn't know how to respect things I buy.

I'm going to snap one of these days.

[livid plover]

that's annoying

[scarlet kernel]

The milk was a single week old, so I had no reason to think it would have spoiled.

I can't go to the store because it's 6 AM.

And that entire batch of shit was ruined

Meaning I literally lost half a gallon of milk and a days worth of food to an idiot.

[dawn fossil]

Who is this someone? A housemate? A relative?

Or an unknown

[scarlet kernel]

Housemate.

Well

No

Housemates friend

Who doesn't know how to stay the fuck away

[dawn fossil]

So that's doubly annoying

[scarlet kernel]

And constantly freeloads

Despite being told outright to stop

And the housemate doesn't enable them. No he hates the fact they're constantly sleeping over or taking food or sitting in our driveway

[dawn fossil]

But doesn't do anything, clearly

[scarlet kernel]

Yeah, because the housemate is barely here because they qork

[dawn fossil]

Wow, freeloader is right.

[scarlet kernel]

We've even locked this feeloader out of the house

And they just sit in the driveway

[dawn fossil]

The question is, how does someone with mutism chew the fuck out of someone? 🤔

[scarlet kernel]

Its annoying.

I have no income because the disability people are dragging their ass and I never get answers to job apps so I'm having to take care of my mom, buy groceries, pay rent, and pay bills all with my mom's social security. We have under 200 a month left over for groceries and I have to stretch this shit so thin

And now I have to stretch it thinner because we now have ruined food

I can't take this crap. It's just too much.

I need a job, or the disability, or something. We need a second income.

[livid plover]

write an angry note and staple it to the persons forehead?

[dawn fossil]

Don't tempt Cailan with a good time

[scarlet kernel]

Don't tempt me with any time because at this damn rate something will go through someone's forehead.

[livid plover]

help. there's a butterfly in my room

[scarlet kernel]

I have an overwhelming urge to hear the ping of a crappy aluminum bat against a skull

[dawn fossil]

Open the window

[livid plover]

that's how it came in

[dawn fossil]

Then it'll go out :)

[tall vapor]

Or less friendly insects will come in

[livid plover]

it did, but it could've not done a driveby at all and we'd both be better off

[dawn fossil]

It's a butterfly, not a monster 😄

Relevant video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dF3vquclli0

[livid plover]

accurate reaction lol

[smoky rapids]

@prisma dove @uneven spear So about my phone 😐

[livid plover]

reminds me of my huawei, creamed it badly within a month

[smoky rapids]

Luckily the white out area still works sans visibility

[livid plover]

so you can still see "everything" with auto rotate

well, kinda. if it goes upside down you could

[civic quarry]

Portal 2 is not nearly as short but is my favorite game ever. The coop is amazing too

[dawn fossil]

I won't be playing the coop, just the single player

[crystal nexus]

Hello people. I'm new here, I'm from Spain.
I work with video for newspapers, streaming... I know how to use OBS, vMix, etc.
But I want to learn more and do more things... Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

[dawn fossil]

You'd have to be specific about what you want to learn

We don't know what your needs are, I couldn't even begin to suggest an idea with no context

[crystal nexus]

In my business group I have been asked to give some training, I enjoy doing that. And also when we need to edit code, extract video sources from HTML codes, etc. but... I'm not a programmer

Much of the streaming video content is in English. I thought about adapting and translating things for my community

[dawn fossil]

I think a lot of content about OBS in Spanish is on YouTube as videos

[crystal nexus]

Yes, that's true too...

Thank you @dawn fossil I will look for a project that motivates me, lately my work is monotonous and I know that there are hundreds of interesting things that could be done

[little glacier]

Isn't there suppose to be a key card in this thing in Payday 2?

Usually regular pasteurized milk lasts 5 to 6 days max... 7 is reaaaally pushing it
Unless it was ultra pasteurized

[open rune]

Ultra pasteurized milk is AMAZING

Missing out on all that good protein tho

And, flavor

Yeah but that's like 90% of the stuff we eat

[carmine ibex]

Get some blueberry lavender almond milk at Trader Joe's if you want flavor :)

[livid plover]

Milk nice, smh u uncultured people

[open rune]

I hate Trader Joe's

Trader Joe's is a grocery store for hobbits

The stores are all just tiny as shit with tiny aisles and tiny tiny carts and way too many people

And they don't sell anything good enough to make it worth my trip

[carmine ibex]

Can confirm smol.. I work at one of the stores and it gets so crowded it's hard to move around during the weekend..

[open rune]

I think part of my problem is that I'm lazy and I don't want to go to multiple grocery stores for grocery shopping

[reef summit]

did you delete the attempted everyone-ping yourself? 🤔

I recommend that to you as well, since no one has asked about your opinion on the topic
if you don't like lgbtq, you can keep that to yourself

[prisma dove]

Amazing, a simple logo is your reason for deleting the best, most popular, and best-supported streaming and recording app on the internet.

[reef summit]

please don't spam nonsense, thanks

[civic quarry]

<@&715347355565817879> you're way more patient than me sebastian

[prisma dove]

Rule#1 and #2.

[livid plover]

Annoying

[reef summit]

I still don't understand what you're trying to say

[reef summit]

(It has now reached the point where I'd also ping RE if you didn't already)

[livid plover]

How's the weather down there?

[tall vapor]

Still far too cold, I'd say

[livid plover]

Please keep to english in this server :)

[tall vapor]

Turn it up by another 40°C or so

[reef summit]

I don't like that you're spamming
And I don't understand what you're saying, not even the automatic translator does

"oooh I'm scared" *gets banned

• a classic

[carmine ibex]

that's fair, Trader Joe's is missing a lot of things, especially name brand... what they do have is really good but...
I get 90% of my stuff at Trader Joe's, the other 10% is stuff my mom gets when she goes to the regular grocery store :p

[civic quarry]

i usually just order groceries and doordash will send a driver to multiple stores for no extra charge 🙂

walmart 🤮

maybe i'm just more lucky with the selection here. we have Meijer which is priced the same as Walmart but much much better.

Whats the best recording format to upload video's to youtube? I used MKV and somtime's when i upload, it shows in 720p60 and somtime's in 360p. Dont understand, i did not change any settings...

[quartz furnace]

The recording format isn't relevant

#tech-talk

[uneven spear]

FYI, youtube takes time to transcode stuff, and starts with 360p. Sometimes it can take hours, or days, or even weeks, for other options to appear. Check an older video that was only at 360 and see if it added 720, owo.

[scarlet kernel]

Welp.

I ended up going to the store

And they were out of store brand bread so I had to pay $4 for a damn loaf of bread

SMH

[edgy yarrow]

is it still good?

[scarlet kernel]

It's sunbeam

it's fine

but expensive

I usually get store brand for 98 cents a loaf

So I got effectively 1/4 my money's worth

why does Apple AAC's SBR take a split second to kick in when skipping through a song sometimes? The delay is pretty annoying... it plays the song muffled with all the high frequency detail taken out then bam it comes back a split second later...

[scarlet kernel]

Guys... Minecraft is being pretty based as of late

[deep hedge]

does anyone here know how to make your streams less delayed

[scarlet kernel]

Too bad they're still going forward with the chat reporting crap 😭

Nope. Delay is inevitable.

Get fiber internet?

That's about it
