This is going to be the worst easter ever. First a broken heating element in a laundry machine and now there is something short-circuiting the boiler....

#

Technician is coming tomorrow, hope it won't be expensive....

charred pewter
#

you got a week yet

#

should be able to get all that fixed!

visual tree
#

I'm more worried about the cost 😅

#

Hope the electronics aren't fried because that's going to be expensive as hell

#

At this point, I am considering solar heating instead of gas boiler as the next option

#

Not to mention EU funds this or next year which could reduce the cost of installation

why does youtube compress my clips so badly

So much better than cable..

Fiber?

tough owl
#

ping tells me otherwise

Oh, didn't notice the ping jace_smile

It's fiber.

Nice. I am already preparing for fiber in advance (getting it this year hopefully) and plan on buying this

+poe injector for the AP

maiden coyote
#

I live pretty far from a major city

#

So if you have the budget for it, you need a firewall.. I'm not sure about the sfp ont.. check and make sure that'll work with your provider.

#

Already did, the one on the picture is actually a rebranded Zyxel pmg3000-d20b module and people have managed to configure it to work for my ISP SnuttsGood

#

Much better than having a separate ont + modem

#

Other ISP's only allow you to connect your own equipment to the ISP modem and setup the bridge mode

#

*well another major ISP that is

maiden coyote
#

Yeah... with at&t I had to disable everything and configure ip passthrough.. kind of bullshit

#

One of the other ISP's will terminate your contract if they detect you completelly replaced their equipment with yours....

tough owl
#

thats gotta be illegal

maiden coyote
#

It's not

they should let me use my own equipment, I just want their service

Thank our wonderful previous leader that did away with net neutrality.

One of the customers claims customer support told them that. Who knows if that's true or not 🤷‍♂️

They could say it violates the tos and shut you off

I'd love to have a dumb ont and not this uverse smart garbage.

This is pretty good. You'll get the most out of your wap by having dedicated network controller

#

I still hate the guy with passion who did phone line wiring in my house 35 years ago

#

He didn't place conduits inside a wall and decided to cement the phone wire instead....

I had to drill the holes and make conduits inside a wall because of that....

Another €388 down the drain, boiler pump broke down tired_jace

#

Too bad 10 years ago there was no water tank with integrated heat pump. I am planning on buying this in the next 1-2 years and connect it to an existing boiler (or a new boiler with smaller capacity which will only be used for heating home)

#

The technician claims it's cheaper and better than solar collectors

#

Solar collectors would cost €5000 while water tank with heat pump would cost €3000

#

And you can also use that heat pump to make a vent in the basement in order to cool the air during summer

House heated water generating boiler

#

Gas boiler

#

for central heating

#

If I had an electric boiler, my electric bills would skyrocket lol

#

Gas is still cheaper here (even if you include purchase and maintenace of gas boiler)

#

I am sure electricity cost would be much higher than the cost of using natural gas here

#

I live 30 km away from a nuclear power plant. If something happens to it, I am screwed lol

sterile plinth
#

Guys something is not normal

#

I've been hearing weird sounds from my PC when it is off for like a month

#

It sounds like an insect's wings grinding against a surface

#

But surely an insect big enough to make sounds with its wings wouldn't be able to survive on no food for months?

#

It 100% sounds like an insect is stuck inside the pc

#

Maybe like a cockroach with wings idk

#

Nah, psu off

visual tree
#

Maybe it's the PSU. Can you check the exact location where the sound is coming from?

sterile plinth
#

It's not consistent at all

#

Maybe a few times a day for 1 minute it will flap it's wings

twin dew
sterile plinth
#

Yes

twin dew
sterile plinth
#

I remember the sound from one of my cables touching the GPU fan, man it drove me insane 😭

sterile plinth
#

I just hear it once a while

twin dew
#

And next time it happens, you remove the cable while it is happening.

sterile plinth
#

But I'm telling you it sounds exactly like an insect flapping it's wings

#

You ever seen a stupid fly thinking transparent glass does not exist and trying to go through it?

#

And it's wings are grinding against the glass

#

It's the EXACT same sound

charred pewter
#

@sterile plinth have you opened it up and had a look inside and made sure the fins of the fan are clean?

#

all it takes is a small filament like strand of hair to cause an intermittent buzzing sound

#

as well if the fins are dirty, it could be causing an imbalance at certain speeds which sound like buzzing as it slows down and regains itself

charred pewter
#

what?? its not ON when it buzzes?

twin dew
#

Which is why I expect it would be something in the PSU when the PSU is only on standby mode

charred pewter
#

thats some scary shit

In a not-so-distant future, Microsoft releases a highly anticipated operating system update promising revolutionary features and enhanced security. Among these innovations is a new "Smart Shutdown" system, designed to optimize power usage and improve system stability. However, beneath the guise of progress lies a sinister agenda.

As users around the globe install the update, they soon discover an unsettling truth - the Smart Shutdown feature comes with a catch. Once activated, attempting to shut down the computer through conventional means triggers a series of ominous warnings: "Shutdown Inhibited. System at Risk." Desperate attempts to force the shutdown result in dire consequences - corrupted files, damaged hardware, and even complete system failure.

For this reason, one of the first things I advise anyone to do on a Windows install is disabling wake timers. Because one other thing this does is rev fans to the max, and I had that happen one too many times in my hotel room in the middle of the night while traveling/

federal signal backup camera... camera was crushed.. now mointor doesn't work either

#

what could it's dysfunction possibly be.

fallow cloud
maiden coyote
#

obviously, the operator is one of them. otherwise the camera would've have been crushed

twin dew
#

Shorted the signal lines and blew something at the monitor end when crushed?

#

Power to them, or to ground or whatever was needed.

maiden coyote
#

possible. I'm kind of sol because I don't have the harness that goes with it ):

#

nothing obviously wrong with it. it just doesn't power on

# fallow cloud nah, its not necessary

Note that the HDV mainboard I picked doesn't have ARGB headers, so you'd either have to pay more for a better board or get a case without RGB (either in the sense of it not having it or you not connecting it). Some cases have a built in hub with button control, that would still work.
Otherwise, I gave upgrade options and alternatives for mainboard, PSU and case
https://es.pcpartpicker.com/list/McPT7R

fallow cloud
#

let me see it

dire igloo
#

I kept the SSD because it's much less expensive than any upgrade I could make

#

as for the PSU: it's great value at 100€, just gross overkill at 850W A-Tier

fallow cloud
stray badger
#

if you were to upgrade, a 750w PSU is probably better

dire igloo
#

I'd go for either of the other three options

stray badger
#

i would help, but i pricing is very different where i live

dire igloo
#

650W is tolerable, especially if you're just gaming and not putting on some synthetic load.
however, I'd pick either a higher wattage or a higher quality unit just to be sure

fallow cloud
#

yea, gaming and having a couple of programs open

dire igloo
#

and yeah, even for 7800XT, the A850GF is still overkill - it's a PSU you get for a 4090 or 7900XTX basically

fallow cloud
#

perfect man

#

thanks a lot :)

dire igloo
#

you're welcome

fallow cloud
#

@dire igloowhich one u prefer, the difference is 10$

dire igloo
#

$10 difference?

fallow cloud
#

yea

dire igloo
#

it was like 20+€ for me

#

definitely Riptide then

fallow cloud
#

also, that psu fits in a microatx?

dire igloo
#

ah fuck, 20€ shipping on the HDV

dire igloo
#

the next smaller common PSU size from ATX would be SFX

twin dew
#

And the PSU sizes are about case compatibility, not MB compatibility.

dire igloo
#

it's a case labeled microATX, that's what I assumed was the question

#

a case being ATX/mATX/ITX or whatever btw only refers to the maximum size of mainboard it can support

"The ramp of HBM production will constrain supply growth in non-HBM products," Mehrotra said. "Industrywide, HBM3E consumes approximately three times the wafer supply as DDR5 to produce a given number of bits in the same technology node."

unless you clean it, the laptop is irrelevant. Positioning looks clean from the top, nice job SnuttsGood
Do you really have the whole dam setup "just in case" you need to replace chips on your laptop? That shi is expensive too. Impressed

winged valley

The repair failed tho

#

My air gun sucks ass and on top of that I dont have a fancy nozzle to compensate so I didnt get even heating and the chips didnt fully seat

well, I hope intel's next gen of gpu's are really good. it's really looking like team green is going to pull out

gilded helm
#

Intel recently made some videos with GN which were cool, but I'm not getting my hopes back up.

#

It seems like all the positive Arc rumors turn out to be BS.

maiden coyote
#

I think, ofc I'm guessing that nivida will launch a 5000 series. but that might be it

gilded helm
#

I think they'd spin it off over exiting altogether. One way or the other, someone would probably be interested in continuing their consumer GPU business.

#

I've seen previous discussions about Intel taking over Nvidia's GPU business as an instant jumpstart, but if anything I can see that going the other way, and some new incarnation of Nvidia's consumer graphics division is the senior in that CPU/GPU arrangement.

winged valley
#

NVidia leaving the GPU industry would be a good thing honestly

cobalt ivy
#

needing a gpu in a current yeah? both intel and amd have integrated, they should all quit making useless crap 🥱

#

to be fair if nvidia didnt exist I wouldn't be able to buy a gpu which barely works on linux and only if you roll back the drivers to a year old version

stray badger
gilded helm
#

There is no chance of that happening in the immediate future. All HBM goes straight to enterprise, and capacity shifted to HBM might actually affect other sorts of memory negatively.

#

"The ramp of HBM production will constrain supply growth in non-HBM products," Mehrotra said. "Industrywide, HBM3E consumes approximately three times the wafer supply as DDR5 to produce a given number of bits in the same technology node."

does asus have a preinstalled software for it?

cyan crescent
#

Armory crate

#

I tried there and it didnt work

rotund hamlet
#

what did you try exactly

cyan crescent
#

Adjusting the fan curve, setting it to silent.

rotund hamlet
#

also have you made sure that the laptop itself isn't doing work when you think you're doing nothing?

#

windows search indexing likes to go "oh you've been inactive for a while guess you don't need the CPU brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"

Windows isnt doing anything

This is fucking annoying. Nothing should be causing them to max out

rotund hamlet
#

no usage of any resource is showing up in task manager?

#

if I wanted to submit just the Docs.json by itself it would cost almost 10 dollars for just the one request, but the context window would need to be almost 1 million tokens, and this model only supports 128k tokens

#

I am aware that a 1 million token model is going to be released soon, however that is still cutting it close when including the fine tuned instructions and examples for what to generate using the data

upbeat dagger
#

it also crashed the website I use for using the AI model lol

#

using the data.json from greeny's repository comes to just over 175K tokens which is much more doable with the model I already have access too but still larger than the 128K context window

somehow that also crashes the website lol

nah opera gx is just rgb coloured spyware, and after their main company was doing hidden predatory loans with like 200% interest for poor people I'd just keep away from opera as a whole

I wanna be able to game without breaking my head

I never realized gaming could be good quality away from windows

Popos has the necessary drivers preinstalled

you will need to do some terminal stuff tho

@midnight osprey you could use revo uninstaller next time.

I am almost certain those IHS's are swapped

Intel has the normal looking ones, AMD have the funky ones

winged valley

Depends on how new the CPU's are

Welcome to tech chat Fireball 😂

Oh gee thanks, nice to know I can't delete that...

night girder

nuke it with powershell (I am not responsible for bricking OS)

viral wyvern
#

xD, I would like to know what is using it before I nuke it

night girder
#

I have a hunch.

winged valley
#

Judging by the filename it's probably your RAM state from a previous hibernation

edgy hazel
#

we need less fire based users in here tbh

viral wyvern
#

Probably just whatever writes the file is what's using it

winged valley
#

That would likely be a system process if i'm correct

sand saddle
#

@winged valley Oh you meant just the IHS, not the PCB. Like this:

winged valley
#

YES KINDA LIKE THAT

#

I think the chip has a composite casing though not a metal one

night girder
#

disabling hibernate mode on your PC will allow you to delete that file and reclaim valuable disk space.

winged valley
#

knew it

night girder
viral wyvern
#

It's sleep, but onto your hard drive instead of Ram

sand saddle
winged valley
#

Hmm, I wonder if it's encrypted at all or if its straight up just a dump of RAM strings

edgy hazel
night girder
#

I think it's to save power. So RAM is sleeping during hybernation (I assume).

winged valley
#

It's some other component

viral wyvern
night girder
#

You could copy/paste file. Rename it and try to open it / read it.

winged valley
night girder
#

Full shutdown? 🤔

winged valley
#

Pretty sure

night girder
#

I assume this can't be. Else Hibernation = Full shutdown.

winged valley
#

Well okay

#

Obv hiber isn't S5

night girder
#

Also hibernation still consumes more power than full shutdown

winged valley

But I think you could pull the plug

viral wyvern

midnight osprey
#

I once followed an Asus youtube guide (their official channel) and it bricked my mobo when trying to flash it because they missed a crucial step of renaming a file

winged valley
#

The fact that the update program is capable of bricking because the filename wasn't found is uh

#

Lawsuit worthy design

viral wyvern
#

Bah, at least try customer support first

night girder
#

Oh interesting, even legacy bios handles hibernation differently than UEFI.

winged valley
viral wyvern
#

alr

midnight osprey
#

I didn't bother reaching out as I was tempted to upgrade anyways

night girder
#

UEFI will bypass post and go straight to bootloader 😄 (if it noticed Hibernation)

winged valley
#

get a CH341A Green (or if you get a black be aware you have to mod it) and manually flash the BIN/ROM file to the chip

Now I want to know, how much faster is hibernation booting vs full shut down booting.

viral wyvern
#

My top is

jagged snow
winged valley
#

booting from S5 is probably faster than whichever one hiber is

#

bc it has to load a whole file into RAM

night girder

as opposed to just loading what's needed on the fly

In this Video I craft a beautiful D20 from amethyst. I use a technique to "frost" the edges of the facets. This scatters light and wonderfully highlights all the facets.

I have wanted to work with a piece of amethyst like this for some time. And it was as much fun as I hoped for.

so it's osmonium > iridium for density

That doesn't measure density though. Like: 22.59 g/cm3.

some calculate volume by making a specific sized chunk of the material, others measure it by how much water it displaces

Direct quote from the verge
Most confusing thing ever

Of course, all of this is largely moot anyways because you can’t actually buy it. The headset isn’t available in any store or online. It’s not clear how much, if anything, it costs. It just sort of shows up for some people, and how it arrives and who it’s sent to is largely a mystery. It’s like the most elaborate soft launch of all time. If the software and availability kinks ever get worked out, though, the headset could end up being a defining moment in consumer technology — the kind of thing that could actually change the world.

languid gulch

yea, i was looking for specs & pricing & instantly noticed all that missing

I'm pretty sure it's just a big inside joke but very confusing for everyone who isn't in on it

How tf is that website https?

#

Tf does the s stand for?

mental oriole
#

Just means the communication is encrypted.

#

aka the request body

#

queryparams are not.

#

Because they're used to do "logic"

sand saddle
#

Fucking crazy

mental oriole
#

Massive red flag for sure.

#

It's wild I can just copy the link to get into my acc

#

I sent that link to my friend, thought it just contained the game ID

#

And then he was disappointed cuz he wanted to play on his own account

edgy hazel
#

charred pewter
#

which means you gotta clip that off to use it 😄

edgy hazel
#

the cables I regulary use are stored elsewhere

#

those are like VGA, USB-C to Mini USB 3 and that kinda shit

#

(and like 5 million usb a to c)

charred pewter
#

urls cant be encrypted ... 😦

#

I think the data is. Url and header are sent in clear text

charred pewter
#

urls also end up in weblogs as plaintext, so very bad to put login info (even emails) in the url

maiden coyote
#

But the payload.. page data and stuff is encrypted

charred pewter
#

yup

mental oriole
#

You have a screenshot on the url? just blur out the sensitive parts (if any). as long the ?param=<blurred value>

sand saddle
#

Join that game and see check the link

mental oriole
#

I get redirected to login 😄

sand saddle
#

Well yeah, use your throwaway acc

#

I'm not sure which part of it is important, I'd imagine the shit after /1/

mental oriole
#

Nah that's fine

#

just user uuid.

#

Nothing to worry about.

sand saddle
#

When I use that link I can access my game profile and perform actions under my acc

mental oriole
#

That's because your token is stored in your session cookies.

#

So you don't have to login everytime.

sand saddle
#

My friend was able to log in with that link

#

Never logged in on any of his devices

#

I was able to access the profile from a different browser just using that link
