I have never ever had the dock crash on me

#

what are you doing to achieve that

tepid olive
#

this is a fresh install too i have literally no clue

silver rampart
#

^

tepid olive
#

i go to click something and nothing happens

#

gotta killall

lime pivot
#

IMO it's useless at best, misleading at worst

#

that bug seems to be for 32-bit Firefox running on 64-bit Windows

#

like that actually could cause some sites to offer you the 32-bit download because they didn't understand the 32-bit token in the user agent refers to the browser install, not the OS

tepid olive
#

unrelated but do you know of a archive utility that lets you actually browse archives

silver rampart
#

7zip

tepid olive
#

on mac?

silver rampart
#

oop

lime pivot
#

BetterZip but it's paid like basically literally everything for macOS

tepid olive
#

theres betterzip but i really dont wanna spend $25 to do something as basic as open zips

silver rampart
#

i use keka but it doens't do browsing

lime pivot
#

yea lmao

silver rampart
#

but it's a great tool

lime pivot
#

honestly I never really want to browse archives, I just want to either list the files or extract them, and sometimes create them

indigo peak
#

should i get all these

silver rampart
indigo peak
#

probably not

silver rampart
#

do they support your processor?

lime pivot
#

better get the battery manager for your desktop pc

silver rampart
#

^

indigo peak
#

im just gonna

#

not

silver rampart
#

(you dont need those)

indigo peak
#

since they arent required

lime pivot
#

you prob just want SMCProcessor and SMCSuperIO

indigo peak
#

alr

tepid olive
silver rampart
lime pivot
#

oh yeah, there's also that one dual-pane Finder clone app that I forget the name of

#

ForkLift

tepid olive
#

oh yeah i forgot abt that

#

the free version is nice for sftp

lime pivot
#

there's also a free-ish one, not called MultiFinder but something similar to that name

silver rampart
#

are there any good sftp clients for windows

lime pivot
#

winscp

tepid olive
#

yea

lime pivot
#

or cyberduck

#

never used cyberduck on windows though

tepid olive
#

if youre only doing basic editing like text files MobaXTerm is nice

lime pivot
#

winscp is fine it's just incredibly old school

tepid olive
#

it sucks at uploading tons of files

lime pivot
#

also consider vscode remote if applicable to your situation

#

filezilla has gone rogue a bit so don't bother with that any more

#

winscp is literally the same anyway if that's what you want

silver rampart
#

edit in nano usually

indigo peak
#

i need this though

#

right

silver rampart
#

unless its web stack code in which case i use the stfp built into Jetbrains tools :)

silver rampart
#

and someone compiled an arm64 version

indigo peak
#

@silver rampart im on internet kexts now

#

how do i do it for my wifi adapter

vivid dew
#

i pirated transmit

tepid olive
lime pivot
#

hey I mean if that's what you're into bro

silver rampart
#

do you have a jailbroken device

indigo peak
#

no

lime pivot
#

tbh you can literally just use USB iPhone tethering

indigo peak
#

well

grim sparrow
#

are you hackintoshing?

silver rampart
#

can you jailbreak one

indigo peak
#

i technically can

#

what version

silver rampart
#

tetherme free trial

tepid olive
#

did you get rid of your 8 already

indigo peak
#

yeah

#

earlier today

tepid olive
#

f

grim sparrow
#

L

lime pivot
#

but if you do, don't use iMessage or App Store till you have working wifi, because they rely on you having a stable wifi MAC address

#

that never changes

lime pivot
#

yeah

grim sparrow
#

but like

silver rampart
#

when i was hackintoshing my laptop before i replaced the adapter, i just used an iPod 4 with Tetherme as a makeshift wifi adapter

grim sparrow
#

my vm has no wifi card

lime pivot
#

iMessage especially will deactivate if the first NIC in your machine suddenly disappears or changes MAC

grim sparrow
#

or wifi of any kind

#

and both of those work

lime pivot
#

sorry I should say NIC in general not wifi, as in, whatever is en0

grim sparrow
#

ah

#

yeah that makes sense

silver rampart
#

i think?

indigo peak
silver rampart
#

that works too

#

do you have unlimited data?

indigo peak
#

ughhhh

#

i need to setup hiotspot

silver rampart
#

i'd be worried about macos downloading some shit

indigo peak
#

fucking kms

tepid olive
#

setup?

lime pivot
#

yeah since the logic board serial + the wifi MAC are the only reliable identifiers on a real Mac

indigo peak
tepid olive
indigo peak
#

And I do have unlimited

lime pivot
#

whereas on iOS you also have IMEI and ECID to make it extra unique

grim sparrow
tepid olive
#

what the hell are you doing on reddit

grim sparrow
#

lmfao

lime pivot
#

all of my data usage is on podcast auto downloads lmao

silver rampart
#

doomscrolling on reddit eats data for breakfast

#

especially on apollo lol

#

downloads everything at full quality

grim sparrow
#

fortunately I live in a country where unlimited data is not at an outlandish price

#

so I turn off all the data saver stuff

#

full quality on mobile data etc

indigo peak
#

@grim sparrow

#

this is my friends

tepid olive
#

look at this fancy mf whos carrier integrates into cellular settings

#

us peasants have to reset it manually

indigo peak
#

casually ignores my friends 137 gb

tepid olive
#

i doubt its using 18gb

#

is that a safari extension?

#

oh thats normal then

#

iirc for vpns it will show all data routed through it as from the app

silver rampart
tepid olive
silver rampart
#

29GB

#

get on my level

indigo peak
silver rampart
#

best ios

grim sparrow
#

grim sparrow
silver rampart
#

lime pivot
#

grim sparrow
#

Turns into phones sales person
Unlimited everything starts at £6 a line here

silver rampart
grim sparrow
#

that includes 5g and tethering if thats your thing

tepid olive
#

16£ for 100gb cause vodaphone moment

lime pivot
#

paging resident phone salesperson @flat thunder

grim sparrow
#

yep

tepid olive
#

grim sparrow
silver rampart
#

sec let me get this months bill

tepid olive
grim sparrow
#

I have to use Vodafone cause remote ish area

#

otherwise i would use someone cheaper

lime pivot
#

my bill is apparently $65 for 120GB 5G

#

no I don't need 120GB no I don't know why I'm paying for it anyway

tepid olive
#

apparently i can get a iphone 12 or 13 mini for 0 down 0 a month

#

sounds sus whats the catch

#

i had 2gb last plan with a 6s for 20£ cause ee moment

silver rampart
indigo peak
#

yo verizon

grim sparrow
tepid olive
#

what the fuck

grim sparrow
#

tf is that for

tepid olive
#

ho

#

w

grim sparrow
#

you renting the store from verizon?

silver rampart
#

they charged me 5 times for one thing

grim sparrow
#

my 13 pro is £18 a month iirc

silver rampart
#

and I've been having trouble getting them to take it off

lime pivot
#

for whatever reason the only carrier here with a 5G network that isn't a joke also makes you select a higher tier plan to have it at all

#

so I can only downgrade so far before it ruins my download performance

restive ether
#

including my phone

grim sparrow
#

that isn't a joke
makes you select a higher tier plan to have it at all

#

contradicting

tepid olive
#

lol

grim sparrow
#

afaik 5G is included for free on all carriers here?

#

if your carrier supports it

#

which the big 4 do

lime pivot
restive ether
#

was for me

lime pivot
#

they pretty much covered the entire of Adelaide with 5G a year ago

#

everyone else is still just upgrading one or two towers here and there, not in any rush

grim sparrow
#

god bless my carrier for ensuring the river gets stable 5G

restive ether
#

oh $30 now

lime pivot
tepid olive
grim sparrow

#

fish want to get on twitter too bro

restive ether
#

wait no it’s 35, this is last month

grim sparrow
#

hey cameren

restive ether
#

forgot i changed my insurance

grim sparrow
#

hey hey cameren

#

wanna see something cursed

restive ether

hi me

lime pivot
#

so we were talking about this wifi card before

#

out of curiosity I went to check why in god's name it needs such a beefy heatsink

#

the answer is it doesn't.

grim sparrow
#

was gonna say

lime pivot
#

it's literally a wittle baby BGA chip

grim sparrow
#

i have a usb wifi dongle and its so helpful

lime pivot
#

and for some reason they felt the need to put a few teeny tiny ICs under an aluminium can

#

probably to make it seem like something is actually happening in there idk

#

for extra fun, there's an air bubble in the thermal pad

grim sparrow
#

lmao

lime pivot
#

so that area isn't even making thermal contact

#

not that it matters

vivid dew
#

crazy

lime pivot
#

aw no I bent the aluminium can

#

now all the electrons are gonna fall out /s

vivid dew
#

just like how hyper g-rank deviljho has 21k hp

lime pivot
#

this isn't even TP-Link's highest performance card either

#

it's the T6E that does 1300 combined up/down when it goes up to T9E with 1900

flat thunder
grim sparrow
#

give me covid

flat thunder
#

Ok

lime pivot
#

judging by this card I expect the T9E to be as thick as an RTX 3090

#

wow ok, it's literally the same as this card but with another antenna

#

same heatsink, same aluminium can that probably does nothing

grim sparrow
#

surely theres a reason though

#

otherwise they wouldn't waste the time and money to make it

lime pivot
#

yes, the reason is to make you buy theirs over someone else's despite theirs being more expensive

grim sparrow
#

thats fun

vivid dew
#

i would buy it if they printed flames on the side

grim sparrow
#

turbo charged internet

tepid olive
#

gaming wifi

#

flames increase your download speed by 15mb/s

#

the blue fan lowers your ping

lime pivot
#

it's a BCM4360 programmed to fake itself as an AirPort Extreme card from ~2013 Macs

#

so it works ootb with zero patches on macOS

lime pivot
#

how friggin long is that antenna

restive ether
#

the longer the better

grim sparrow
#

this is what I have

restive ether
#

that’s what my girlfriend said at least

lime pivot
#

I mean the cable, I really hope the antennas itself isn't to scale

lime pivot
restive ether
#

i’m an unlicensed operator

#

fuck the tv people

tepid olive
#

how do i jailbreak my sprint magic box

#

unlock more gigahertz

#

carrier crack

lime pivot
#

all you need is an illegal VHF amplifier!

indigo peak
#

@silver rampart so should i make a vm and then get the kext that way

silver rampart
#

i dont know if that would work

restive ether
#

the british know how to party

vivid dew
#

that's not news

silver rampart
#

^

tepid olive
#

we do

silver rampart
#

that's just college

lol

grim sparrow
lime pivot
#

you mean to say studying so you can get a job and working so you can pay for your study is exhausting? wtf bro

just work harder smh

grim sparrow

if I had the money to I would

tepid olive
grim sparrow
#

lmfao

#

maybe he did believe but just wanted to hustle

lime pivot
#

or maybe it was the mom

grim sparrow
#

i should sell estrogen in my school

tepid olive
#

i forgot

#

good idea

vivid dew
#

i need estrogen in bulk

tepid olive
#

@grim sparrow package some estrogen with some steroid labels and leave it in the training room

grim sparrow

bro wtf

tepid olive
vivid dew
#

he is writing his script inside the virtualenv

#

i've never seen anyone do that

tepid olive
#

jaidan has done that

grim sparrow
#

I never write in a virtualenv

#

only when deploying

vivid dew
#

he's also got Discipline Equals Freedom taped to his monitor

grim sparrow
#

I was wondering what that said

#

ty

tepid olive
#

what is the python venv

#

i use it but i dont know why

grim sparrow
#

Docker but not quite Docker

tepid olive
#

he also had Gill Katias as a teacher

#

thank you for this amazing tip

#

banger

lime pivot
#

while loop

vivid dew

that's a syntax error since there's nothing in the block

tepid olive

LMAO

i feel bad but this is so funny

ocean raptor

I regret to inform yall that I've been using VSCode

tepid olive

please take me

Hello developers look at something you will never be able to achieve

#

Have a nice day and keep programming 👍

tepid olive
#

6 hour stand goal

#

Pussy

lime pivot
#

I didn't know you could even decrease it now

tepid olive
#

same

vivid dew
#

get a load of this meatsack

tepid olive
#

i cba with the stand goal

lime pivot
#

I've had it on 12 hours since I first got a watch with like watchOS 2

vivid dew
#

needing exercise to maintain biological function

tepid olive
grim sparrow
#

it actually is

#

lmao

tepid olive
#

what did u do

lime pivot
#

scrolls back to best exercise day in 4 years

tepid olive
#

16 hours standing seek help

grim sparrow
#

went for a run and then vr

#

lol

grim sparrow
lime pivot
#

I should get into VR

grim sparrow
#

16 stand hours means I slept for 8 hours

lime pivot
#

I'm bad at tricking myself into exercising

tepid olive
#

i was skiing all morning as well

tepid olive
grim sparrow
#

I actually did sleep

#

funnily enough

lime pivot
#

mfw sleeping standing up

silver rampart
lime pivot
grim sparrow
#

Being able to sleep while standing is horrible

#

Falling asleep while standing on the bus NotLikeNico

tepid olive
#

astronauts

silver rampart
# lime pivot man I feel this

if i bothered to pair my watch to a phone i get the feeling it'd probably register like an hour of my shift as 'sleep'

next wadi
tepid olive
#

cap

silver rampart
#

gets rough at like 2 am

grim sparrow
#

I slept till 1pm yesterday

tepid olive
#

you’re a vampire

grim sparrow
#

so I feel fine now and its 2:12am

silver rampart
#

woke up at 2 am today

#

went back to sleep at 11

#

woke up again at 5

tepid olive
grim sparrow
#

days when I have college

silver rampart
#

night shift and fucking up your sleep schedule horribly any time you have a day off

#

name a better duo

tepid olive
grim sparrow
#

my college sleep schedule is sleep around 1 - 3 and then wake at 7

tepid olive
#

unowned vars don’t need sleep

lime pivot
#

well

grim sparrow
#

predicting that I'm getting to get disowned

tepid olive
#

mfw i cant use nightshift on my mac because apple decided one of my monitors isnt compatible with it for some reason

silver rampart
#

lmfao

lime pivot
#

"how do I do this very simple thing?"
"copy and paste this somewhat complex python script and hopefully it works, maybe it doesn't idk good luck"

grim sparrow
#

lmfao

silver rampart
lime pivot
#

meanwhile on windows: literally select "start as: minimised"

tepid olive
grim sparrow
lime pivot
#

unsafe(unowned) unamy

vivid dew
#

that script could be 5 times shorter if it was bash

tepid olive
#

thought u were serious appleskull

grim sparrow
tepid olive
#

true

lime pivot
#

I'm also literally trying to autostart a wine exe which makes it even more frustrating

lime pivot
#

even start /min isn't working

lime pivot
# grim sparrow

ah yes the hide checkbox, honoured by every app except for Discord, which steals focus not once but twice

tepid olive
silver rampart
#

might just need a launch daemon honestly

grim sparrow
silver rampart
#

its what i have to use to use for jupyter hub on my macos 'server'

lime pivot
#

unfortunately

grim sparrow
vivid dew
lime pivot
#

and the ones that didn't fit

grim sparrow
#

oh fuck

lime pivot
#

Background Replace is my dumbass webcam

grim sparrow
#

thanks for reminding me to check slack

tepid olive
lime pivot
#

if I delete it, next time I open its settings app it just goes "hey my startup items are missing, but I added them back for you! no need to thank me!"

strong heath
#

my favorite part of coding is copying and pasting

vivid dew
#

we are slaves to the machine

lime pivot
#

macOS needs something like Windows where you can disable an autostart thing without that thing knowing you disabled it

grim sparrow
#

opening slack was a waste of time

#

was just someone putting in general today is my birthday

tepid olive
#

thanking god every day i don’t have to use slack

silver rampart
#

one of the reasons i avoid booting into macos is that it takes like 5-7 minutes before i can click on anything

vivid dew
#

tell them i (murderer) said happy birthday

silver rampart
#

bc apps and shit are constantly auto-opening every single time i log in

grim sparrow
tepid olive
#

the editing shit?

grim sparrow
#

mhm

tepid olive
#

lmaoooo

grim sparrow
#

the channel kinda died

#

kinda

#

it died

strong heath
#

shits more dead than me inside

tepid olive
grim sparrow

we all made a decent profit though

no idea who that is

tepid olive

this redacted stores files on the desktop

next wadi
#

what is redacted

tepid olive
next wadi
#

yea

indigo peak
silver rampart
#

tethering is the easiest way

#

idk if you can install macos without internet(?)

grim sparrow
#

you can

indigo peak
#

i think the only way to do it is with a mac already'

grim sparrow
#

why

indigo peak
#

because

#

i have no way of connecting to the internet

#

to actually install the hackinstosh

silver rampart
vivid dew
#

use your mac os x 10.6.2 install dvd

silver rampart
#

here's the shit for the wifi adapter

vivid dew
#

remember to also install iLife '09 from the second dvd

tepid olive
#

use vm -> download full install macos.app -> make bootable usb -> install

indigo peak
indigo peak
#

okay so i need to install the big sur vm

#

ugh

lime pivot
silver rampart
#

i do

lime pivot
#

it will greatly improve your life

silver rampart
#

its startup apps

lime pivot
#

also tick hide on all your login items

#

everything except Discord will honour it

silver rampart
#

i should do that

indigo peak
#

this is killing me

grim sparrow
indigo peak
#

2.3 gb out of 16

silver rampart
#

lol

#

wait till you have to install xcode

#

the 12gb download isn't even the worst part

lime pivot
#

because Discord has yet to figure out how to respect the start hidden flag just like every other Electron app is able to do without problems

indigo peak
#

45 minutes left

lime pivot
grim sparrow
#

xip ain't even worth it

#

xip is just the embodiment of we started this venture and we will finish it

silver rampart
#

its bc of an attack in china

lime pivot
#

supply chain attack

grim sparrow
#

ok hear me out

#

signing an archive is cool and all

silver rampart
#

i dont remember the details but there was some fake trojaned xcode download being spread

grim sparrow
#

but like

#

maybe

#

just maybe

#

make the decompression efficient

lime pivot
#

xcodeghost infected the linker to always link a .o with malware code in it

#

although it didn't really seem to do much of anything, wasn't as scary as it could have been

grim sparrow
#

Xcode with zst is 6gb and relatively quick to decompress

lime pivot
#

still absolutely not good how many legit companies decided it was ok to download Xcode.dmg from a random ass chinese server so it would download in a few hours instead of in several hours

#

Apple fixed that issue at least by now hosting dev downloads on their Chinese CDN as well as US

silver rampart
lime pivot
#

yeah it doesn't, because I'm pretty sure macOS already was telling those devs off for running the infected Xcode.app

#

so they just went "lmao whatever I'm not downloading this shit again" and did xattr -d com.apple.quarantine Xcode.app

grim sparrow
#

classic

silver rampart
#

(and someone could just as easily ship a better-compressed xcode copy that doesn't take an hour+ to unzip (trojans included))

lime pivot
#

and everything seemed fine so they didn't care

#

"seemed fine" going as far as shipping their infected app built with infected xcode they ignored security warnings from to the app store

grim sparrow
#

don't apple block that now anyway

#

if xcode isn't signed by apple and the signature isn't valid you can't send to app store connect

silver rampart
#

thank god apple's anti-sideloading policy prevented this malware from being put on the app store 😎

lime pivot
#

based on signatures yeah, and it's an old Xcode by now with an SDK they auto-reject because it's too old

grim sparrow
#

mhm

lime pivot
silver rampart
#

neat

lime pivot
#

same as app store, binary will be blocked on 100% of online Macs within 4 hours I believe

indigo peak
#

my download went through 3 new gigs

#

and its still on 45 min

lime pivot
#

lmao

#

macOS is a big boi now huh

grim sparrow
#

what i hate

#

about modern macos

#

is that it ships arm64e on intel platforms

#

thats such a waste of space

lime pivot
#

indeed

grim sparrow
#

I don't need 3 dyld_shared_cache files

silver rampart
#

i got a $200 amazon card for christmas and i need suggestions i genuinely cannot think of anything

grim sparrow
#

estrogen

lime pivot
#

lmao

lime pivot
#

but they chose to make it fat binaries all the way

indigo peak
grim sparrow
#

I do not need all of these, Apple I promise

untold river
indigo peak
#

it was the first youtube video

silver rampart
#

what the fuck

indigo peak
#

and ive already downloaded basically half of it

#

im in too deep

tepid olive
#

would probably be easier to get a premade vmware image

grim sparrow
untold river
#

no

silver rampart
#

@lime pivot

tepid olive
#

just get the anker one for 90% cheaper

lime pivot
#

me: hi Disk Inventory X can you tell me where all my space has gone

Disk Inventory X: yeah it's all your Xcode.apps and dyld_shared_caches

lime pivot
untold river
#

.

lime pivot
silver rampart
#

im not i have a great wall charger that was like $40

lime pivot
#

2 USB-A + 2 USB-C at that price is disappointing

silver rampart
#

its absurd

tepid olive
#

does it even have rgb

#

i see it has g

lime pivot
#

unless it's something totally insane like 100W charging on both C ports

#

in which case I'd ask why is this a problem you believe you need to solve

silver rampart
#

i was gonna get a PS2

#

but they're all over $200 (????)

grim sparrow
#

1 fast charging usb c and 4 usb a

lime pivot
#

vintage tech has been taken over by scalpers applerollingeyes

tepid olive
#

i had a 11.7 iso yesterday

#

its gone now

grim sparrow
#

its just to download a .app

#

and then make a boot usb

#

it really doesn't matter

lime pivot
#

you can’t even get a decent XP machine without it being all “GAMING” “RETRO” “VINTAGE” “👀 LOOK 👀”

#

even though just 2 years ago the same machines were selling for near nothing

tepid olive
#

lmfao this is literally a thin client

lime pivot
#

worse if you go any more vintage than XP era

lime pivot
untold river
lime pivot
#

yeah thin clients have also shot up because DOS gamers realised they well, were dirt cheap and fast enough for DOS + many win95/98 games

silver rampart
#

im gonna eventually get around to hitting up the local game stores and try to find a cheap scratched up ps2

lime pivot
#

well I should say more like slow enough, not fast enough

silver rampart
#

then gonna grab one of those PAL pink ps2s with broken internals but an intact casing, remove the casing, and stick it on mine

lime pivot
#

you could run games that are tied to the CPU clock cycles of early PCs with a few BIOS settings tweaks

silver rampart
#

then i can play the ps2 spyro trilogy in peace

tepid olive
#

time to install xp on my thin client and sell it for 10x the price

lime pivot
#

just make sure the plastic mouldings are the same

yeah should probably verify that

lime pivot
#

Sony likes to make subtle tweaks occasionally

tepid olive
#

my friend spent $200 on a ps2 because he thought it was too much work to open ds4windows and double click a game iso

lime pivot
#

yikes

silver rampart
#

pcsx2 works fine but its not perfect for every game

#

and sometimes its nice to just stick a disk in a console and play the game

lime pivot
#

worst part is everyone told their friends retro gaming is cheap and fun, and they then go and get scammed because they don’t know $200 for a PS2 is a ripoff

silver rampart
#

without fiddling with emulator settings for 30 minutes and setting up some jank shit to hook your pc up to a TV

#

also i wanna submit speedruns for a couple of games but cant yet bc emulator

lime pivot
#

although honestly I recall emulators not being as good for PS2 because of the more unique hardware

#

pcsx2 I think is what I tried

silver rampart
#

depends on your hardware

lime pivot
#

i7-8700U + igpu

#

last time I tried it

tepid olive
#

unfornatuely ps2 emulation on m1 still sucks

#

even with metal

lime pivot
#

also Linux because I hated myself

silver rampart
#

i7 8th gen igpu struggles with some games but got by

#

my i7 4770-whateverthefuck with an rx580 handles everything very well

lime pivot
#

yeah thing is, the same setup runs Wii games with a rendering multiplier up to 1080p brilliantly

silver rampart
#

mine ran wii games ok

#

i tried paper mario 3d and it'd frequently freak out and drop to 1fps when rendering some effects

lime pivot
#

not perfect 60fps but close enough, might have been 50fps (50Hz PAL mode)

#

yikes hah

#

yeah it depends on the game, some will be better supported + tested than others

silver rampart
#

nothing really beats real hardware though

lime pivot
#

and don’t forget game devs back in the day always found hardware specific tricks that often end up difficult to emulate

silver rampart
#

cant emulate nostalgia

lime pivot
#

my favorite is the big-screen TV on one of the tracks in Mario Kart 64, the trick it uses as yet hasn’t been successfully emulated

#

so you just get a black rectangle there

silver rampart
#

is that the framebuffer one

lime pivot
#

yeah

silver rampart
#

yeah sounds like a headache

lime pivot
#

it somehow makes the framebuffer replicate itself into a tiny window

lime pivot
#

depends what I’m feeling honestly. sometimes I want the real original experience, other times I think “but what if I threw 20+ years of technology innovation at this game”

silver rampart
#

but what if I threw 20+ years of technology innovation at this game
runs slower

lime pivot
#

lmao

ocean raptor
#

I hate this, I'm trying to separate the CC modules from the apps in my table view and it is not going well

lime pivot
#

see I thought that would be the case by upscaling Wii to 1080 but it honestly didn’t seem to make much difference

lime pivot
#

Wii is capped at 50Hz (PAL)/60Hz (NTSC) though

silver rampart
#

oh you just made me remember how much better the ps2 spyro trilogy looks emulated on my good PC

lime pivot
#

since it only supported analog video out

silver rampart
#

and the paper mario 3d game on dolphin

#

which has UHD sprite packs out

lime pivot
#

oh damn

#

yeah obv the only issue with upscaling is you ruin the illusion when you realise what’s rendered and what’s a texture

silver rampart
#

game looks amazing emulated

restive ether
#

i assumed by the time we got to like 2000 everyone was kinda onboard doing the same thing

silver rampart
#

doesn't watch summoning salt

#

smh

lime pivot
#

especially a problem on Wii games IIRC because they had a whole 4.7GB DVD to shove sprites on, compared to N64 where they had to rely more on rendering things on the fly because they only had a few MB of ROM to stick the game on

indigo peak
#

its almost done

lime pivot
tepid olive
tepid olive
indigo peak
#

its not a progrss bar

silver rampart
indigo peak
#

it moves

tepid olive
#

why

silver rampart
#

hdmi has always just existed as long as i've been alive

tepid olive
#

i know it does that on gdrive cuz it doesnt show the file size

lime pivot
#

yet HDMI ports only really existed on LCD TVs because obv a PAL/NTSC image looks like complete trash on an LCD panel

#

CRTs were like yeah whatever but your N64 and PS1 only have composite out so we’re just gonna give you 4 composite inputs and 1 component input

#

yeah why does Microsoft not believe in progress bars

#

ones that actually show progress

silver rampart
#

the ol mystical differently-colored component inputs

ocean raptor
lime pivot
#

my favorite is when Windows shows a big spinner during an update and then a percentage below it

tepid olive
#

how

lime pivot
#

like just give me a progress bar bro

restive ether
silver rampart
shell nova
#

LOL

lime pivot
#

it’s like they commissioned some research that said “people don’t like progress bars because sometimes they think the program is frozen” and figured the solution is “ok let’s use a stateless spinner graphic and show progress as a percentage below it”

pearl sail
#

I mean I’m not is the defense of windows, but I would WSL2 is some progress

vivid dew
#

i mean, true

lime pivot
#

isn’t that why they added the pulsating effect to progress bars, because it reminds you it really is still busy and not frozen?

vivid dew
#

the real solution is to make programs that don't freeze

pearl sail
silver rampart
vivid dew
#

we believe that programs with an active progress bar are actually failed and frozen somehow because it's happened before

silver rampart
#

macos engineers be like "our 2400 frameworks bundled into our OS are so big it's breaking memory mapping? time to rework dyld again"

pearl sail
#

For a mostly stagnant development progress I agree. Their focus is not on windows that much anyways which is evident

#

It would be nice to see the ARM version of windows

#

Be fleshed out

silver rampart
#

i mean its fairly fleshed out as is rn

#

i use it full time and it's fine

#

it was godawful when i got this machine 2 years ago, but its done nothing but improve since then

vivid dew
#

i think we'll need to see arm pcs become actually buildable first

silver rampart
#

even on a machine without EL2

@silver rampart @lime pivot

:D

because now it’s Windows on Intel vs macOS on ARM

True that

silver rampart

:(

I mean more like people who will settle for less value for money than they can get elsewhere because of dumb reasons like “lul mac bad pc good”

silver rampart
#

both OSes are usable operating systems

pearl sail
#

At the moment though Microsoft doesn’t have a viable thing to run ARM Windows besides MacBooks

lime pivot
#

and Microsoft themselves are indeed asking lots of people to settle for worse because everything works fine on x86_64 and nothing works on arm64

So DNDStateService has a method called [DNDStateService addStateUpdateListener:withCompletionHandler:], if I understand this psuedocode it will exit and whenever the state updates it'll run the completion handler, does that sound right?

at least its open source. tho!!

that’s exactly what i thought of

wtf I thought I was on 120GB

silver rampart
#

i honestly find it more amazing that the ppl who managed to write that exploit also got caught

lime pivot
#

note that $50 off is before the $65, so it's really $115

#

actually that makes no damn sense

#

just confirming for anyone who didn't believe me that I have to pay for the privilege of 5G

silver rampart

just move to america

5g is the same price here but nowhere fucking has 5g

lime pivot

I'll get right on that

#

will tell the CBP workers krit told me to move here

oh just realised I don't get the promo discount if I change plans

so I guess I just have to not forget to not be charged $115 for the privilege of having a functional telephone in 5 months' time

is it possible to get a list of all notifications that are registered

are you using it on windows

I legit wonder why they even bother showing expensive options that overlap by so much with the free/cheap options

just on the off chance someone will pay $120 on a $182 monitor because they need it literally 24 hours from now?

not even

was gonna buy some good clothes but meh

more like 4 days from now for you americans

you will definitely be grateful you went 144

silver rampart

I think I'll appreciate it a lot more than higher res

especially for FPS games

lime pivot

my monitor is supposed to be 4K 144 but USB-C continues to be a trash standard so my MacBook is currently capped at outputting 60

silver rampart

unless I get a DisplayPort adapter, adding yet another cable to plug into my laptop

grim sparrow

if I upgrade to M1 Max I'm gonna need that adapter… there's no way I'd accept 120Hz on the laptop but 60 on my big monitor
