the only thing that dies on mining cards is their fans because they’re ran at 100% 24/7

[soft swan]

I’m on PS4 not pc cause my pc is celeron lol

[dreamy rose]

Something as simple as going AUD to USD? Made easier by introducing a whole new fake Currency?

[soft swan]

What about vram it gets basically fried on some

[dreamy rose]

Still. Makes the card fail regardless

[night heron]

nah it doesn’t

it doesn’t

mining doesn’t kill gpus

[dreamy rose]

Source?

[night heron]

give a source that proves that mining on a gpu kills it faster than using it for gaming or productivity

[soft swan]

Not sure tbh I only heard sometimes vram can get fried and the pcb gets sorta burnt sometimes if it’s been mined a lot

[night heron]

silicon is designed to run for decades at stock clocks and mining cards are ran at nearly half power limit, they have an easier life than a gaming card which experiences on and off power spikes 24/7

[dreamy rose]

Ah yes because that's a totally normal thing you definitely gotta do on even brand new hardware.

[storm sedge]

h

[night heron]

the fans will be worn out after a few years yes but thats just how fans work

the gpu itself is completely fine

[soft swan]

Or put a waterblock

[night heron]

i’m not sure why the rumor that mining is hard on gpus started

because every miner i’ve seen runs their cards extremely undervolted and cool

it’s just like it’s easier on an engine to run at a slow steady rate than it is to turn off over and over

[dreamy rose]

"Rumor" because wear doesn't exist.

[night heron]

dude is fuming over mining “killing” all the rtx 3000 cards yet they were only mined on for ~2 years and mining is easier on a card than gaming anyway

[dreamy rose]

Why would i say that Wear doesn't exist?

It clearly does.

[night heron]

all these gamers out here killing my perfectly good rtx 3000 gpus

(satire)

i’m not kidding when i say cpus/gpus will run for decades at a time with routine maintenance

two years of undervolted load is nothing to a gpu

[ocean narwhal]

I'm p sure mining keeps g6x pretty hot 24/7 doesn't it?

[night heron]

it puts a load on it yeah but it’s in the miners best interest to keep the card cool for efficiency

[dreamy rose]

I'm saying it breaks down GPUs for no purpose. Hardware that would be better served Gaming. An Abundance of it. Say what you like about the whole Undervolting thing but it doesn't kill the cards any slower.

[night heron]

how would hardware be “better suited” for gaming

don’t even bother replying to him

both of my last gpu purchases have been mining cards and they’re both flawless to this day

zero signs of degradation, both cards clock very well

my 1070 in 2018 and it’s been in use daily since then

got a 6900xt last week

i put an aftermarket cooler on the 1070 so i can’t speak for that

the fans are fine on my 6900xt though

dope

when’s that

oh mines october as well

you as well king

[past egret]

its like a month away

[night heron]

mine is in the first week of october thankfully

coming up mighty soon

[past egret]

no.

thats more than a month

???

how long is a month again?

[full fossil]

is msi gf63 thin 9rcx bad

[past egret]

is it not 31 days?

[past egret]

msi laptops are pretty meh

guaranteed death after 3 to 4 years

mine just stopped turning on, sent it for RMA, guy said cpu died, fix was 400 dollars

[golden talon]

Yes

[past egret]

i said fuck you and built my pc instead

[golden talon]

All MSI laptops are shit

[full fossil]

i got 30 fps on csgo

[golden talon]

Lol

They’re just as bad as they’ve been, GS75 and GS76 both failed within a year

I’m never buying an MSI again idk why I gave them a second chance

[full fossil]

Hello I have an rtx 2060 with an i7 10700k 16 gb of ram water cooled and I was wondering if it will last me until 2024 July I got it in 2021 July

[golden talon]

I’m still not buying one until they fix panel separation

LTT called the GS75 the “next generation laptop” and everything was wrong with it

[full fossil]

I don’t know how to replace water

It’s been 1 year

Over a year

[tiny socket]

is it worth it to buy a used gpu after the crypto merge?

[full fossil]

Should I take it to a shop

[golden talon]

For mining no

[full fossil]

ok so why is my laptop getting 30 fps

[golden talon]

I’m currently mining on my rig

[tiny socket]

i mean for a gaming rig

[night heron]

not a bad idea

[past egret]

do you have to replace the coolant on AIO pumps or what

[full fossil]

its a freaking 1050 ti i7 9750h and 16 gb ram

[night heron]

amd gpu prices are pretty low right now

[full fossil]

When should I replace it

[past egret]

are you plugged in

[full fossil]

it used to get 150 fps at least

[full fossil]

ofc lol

[full fossil]

it always goes like 150-30-20-60-100-150-30...

in csgo

how

[past egret]

i think your laptop just overheating

[tiny socket]

ye

[full fossil]

it isnt? the gpu is 90 degrees

[past egret]

fix is to not game on a laptop

[full fossil]

celcius

[tiny socket]

definetly overheating

[full fossil]

???

[past egret]

90 is superhot, even for laptops

[full fossil]

then how to take care

It’s been over a year

[tiny socket]

clean fans and change the thermal paste if its old

[full fossil]

2 yeras old

[past egret]

pour water on it, maybe cook wagyu

[tiny socket]

ye u should prob change it

[full fossil]

can i cahnge it by mself

[past egret]

yes.

[tiny socket]

you can ask someone who knows the laptop space or just watch a couple yt tutorials

[full fossil]

or should i bring it to msi

[tiny socket]

if it has warranty

[full fossil]

nop

and i have school,idk if i have time

what do i put in it

water

[tiny socket]

its an hour maximum

[full fossil]

ok

[full fossil]

by myself?

[golden talon]

That’s another issue with basically all MSIs lol

dogshit cooling can’t sustain itself

[full fossil]

msi said i need to wait for 7 days for the technician to come when i asked for checkup

[tiny socket]

well do u want them to buy another laptop?

[full fossil]

and another several days to check

[golden talon]

Yes, for their own good

Will save them a lot of headache in the future

[full fossil]

what happens if i dont replace water for 2 years

[golden talon]

Repasted and cleaned my laptop and even installed high performance fans in my laptop and it still throttled

MSI cooling solutions are just bad

[past egret]

honestly just use it until it dies

[tiny socket]

you just need a screwdriver, a small iso alc bottle, tissue to wipe off dry paste, and the thermal paste itself

[golden talon]

Which will probably be soon

[full fossil]

how old is it

ok#

[past egret]

i do suggest having a backup

[full fossil]

i can only every year

[golden talon]

2 years old when I replaced everything, 3 years old when I got rid of it cuz it sucked

[full fossil]

i didnt build my pc

and i dont want to break it

[golden talon]

I even have a reddit post if you want to see how bad it was @full fossil

[soft mirage]

hi there is there a chat for video suggestion?

[past egret]

#off-topic

[soft mirage]

[past egret]

trolld

[dreamy rose]

Thats plenty enough to tell.

[golden talon]

It sure is

[dreamy rose]

Its so bad you have to make a Reddit post about it

[golden talon]

Yes

[past egret]

msi cuts deep

[dreamy rose]

Then i guess i should be posting a million things about my Prehistoric Acer Travelmate 5760G then

[golden talon]

Is it a 3 year old laptop you’ve hardly moved off your desk?

[dreamy rose]

Its a 10 year old laptop with SATA II Storage that refuses to work even if you nudge it a tiny bit.

[golden talon]

Well…. that’s a 10 year old laptop

[dreamy rose]

Its hot, its busted, its dusty. Its my main source of entertainment and still somehow works.

BRO I FUCKING SNEEZED.

This thing goes Orange Screen

[manic torrent]

Awwww yeah. I got frigate setup with object detection on my cameras, offloaded to my NVIDIA P400 in the server, integrated with home assistant. Need to add some more things and tweak some flows (like setting off a doorbell when there's a person at the door)

[upbeat ridge]

uhm what

i just bought a GPU for 0,01 euro

[carmine merlin]

what gpu is that?

[upbeat ridge]

well im probably not getting it, but it is from a reliable shop

[manic torrent]

Haha damn. I'd have that for 1 eurocent

[upbeat ridge]

same

thats why i yolo'ed it

[past egret]

i think thats just a mistake from the web owner but lmao

[carmine merlin]

I mean, I have seen a s20 ultra going for 1 dollar before.
The shipped phone isn't even the s20 U its an A52s. And some got boot leg phones

[upbeat ridge]

I can miss 1 eurocent, and i am very much aware its a mistake lmao

[manic torrent]

I just bought a new 24" monitor

[past egret]

small

[manic torrent]

Yeah it's to go to the left of my 48" oled

[past egret]

nvm its beeg

[night heron]

i went from dual 27 to single 43 and enjoy it more

[manic torrent]

I removed the 34 from above, and changed some other stuff around, but I miss a secondary monitor. The 24 will go in portrait

[upbeat ridge]

i dont get why people put their stuff in portrait mode

[past egret]

so you dont have to scroll

[manic torrent]

Perfect for secondary or tertiary monitors

[upbeat ridge]

yeah like, for some people i get it, especially streamers, but I just really dont work with long text docu... wait i do

i dont like it tho, i prefer a 1440/4k horizontal monitor

[manic torrent]

You don't have to chose a single one.....

[night heron]

portrait works well for adding a secondary monitor to an existing 43/48” setup

i don’t care for it with standard size monitors though

[upbeat ridge]

yeah i also dont have the vertical space hhaah

[honest iris]

twitter on portrait changed my life and i dont think i can go back

What is the problem with the RTX 3090 (non-Ti) having a higher than usual failure rate?

[night heron]

haven’t heard of that

[rustic crown]

they use a lot of power and have a lot of ram meaning the vrm and memory vrm are under a lot of load

also the vram runs hot af

[drifting orchid]

Is there any way to download a video stream on youtube?

Tried downloader and idm, cant download the whole video

[ashen zodiac]

[stuck egret]

Someone said the PCB design is too close to the memory which causes overheating in returns high random fail rate

[rustic crown]

The vram does hit 110c

[stuck egret]

My question is which models are affected? Another user said every model except Strix

[rustic crown]

If you want a 3090 you are better donating that cash to charity

still, free is free.

now it's mostly just indie games nobody plays

[lucid echo]

How dare they not give me spiderman for free

[fluid ridge]

i wouldnt go that far, as the free triple As probably costed epic tens of millions of dollars to license out for free

but as of right now, it is not worth going to epics shitty ahh launcher to get a game that's like 28 megabytes and made in someones basement

[lucid echo]

There have been some gems

that is true, like amogus

[lucid echo]

Tomb Raider & Doom 64 were both recent ones

i like the games on it

[graceful burrow]

fair

[hollow citrus]

who doesnt love some wii sports once in awhile

[hearty spear]

I'll sit on my Wii playing Gamecube games lol

[hollow citrus]

my mariokart disk is brokie though

[hearty spear]

letterbomb it and add an external SSD

[hollow citrus]

ill just try to find a replacement online. im sure i could do that but i like the og wii and putting the disks in

its just got that feel ya know?

i do need a crt for my nes tho. I used to have one but my mom donated it because she didnt think we needed it lmao

[hollow zealot]

I'm getting more and more tempted to buy a deck even though I don't need one

[graceful burrow]

what's holding you back from it, i can answer any questions you want on it

i was first batch so i've had mine for a while now

[hollow zealot]

Well it's moreso that I don't have a reason to own it

I use an emulator on my phone for when I need something to do at work
And I'm either at work or at home, nowhere in between

[graceful burrow]

tactile buttons
touchscreen buttons suck
though you could just get a razer kishi and solve that issue kek

but you could play modern games on the deck on the go

i enjoy a spot of dark souls when im out and about

[hollow zealot]

This is true
A game I'd love to play on the go is elite dangerous

But I just can't bring myself to rationalize $300 for something I don't need if you get what I mean

[graceful burrow]

https://www.protondb.com/app/359320 looks like elite dangerous runs well on the deck

[hollow zealot]

Quite, especially if you don't disembark or land on planets

[lucid echo]

Hell, even SC runs on the deck
https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/ul53y8/star_citizen_on_the_steam_deck_proof_of/

And it has EAC enabled

[stoic beacon]

Does it have an official dock yet? Main reason I'd get one is for the TV play

[lucid echo]

Not an official one, but tons of third party ones that work great. I have one

[graceful burrow]

official no, but JSAUX makes a really good dock specifically for the deck

[sonic barn]

I saw people in the star citizen discord do this

[graceful burrow]

the official dock is still in dev

but really any usb c hub with hdmi output works

[hollow zealot]

Tbh I might ditch having a desktop PC when it comes down to it if the handheld industry continues to skyrocket in performance

Being able to dock a GPU alongside the steamdeck would be a huge step, iirc someone has done that

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, just a few months ago, I was looking at Series X and PS5 just because outside of StarCraft and Planetside, there aren't many games I prefer to play on my desk anymore. I want to sit on the couch. But I didn't want to repurchase all of my games.

I'm glad the Steam Deck is so successful so far.

[graceful burrow]

im glad other companies are doing their best to compete
i want healthy competition
if the deck was the best of all time forever the handheld pc market would die
i dont want that

i want the deck to be one-upped

[stoic beacon]

Based on the various reviews coming, out it has been getting one upped, quite a bit, but not at super competitive price points

I do hope they can avoid another Index Quest situation though

[graceful burrow]

yeah it's real fuckin hard to bypass the deck's price

400 dollars for this is crazy

[stoic beacon]

Is that the one you generally recommend? I was looking at getting the top tier one with more storage, carrying case, etc. all that jazz

Once they're caught up, that is

[hollow citrus]

hell i think you can get away with a 512gb micro sd and the base model, unless you want the better display and all the other bits and pieces

[graceful burrow]

it all comes with a carrying case, you can replace the ssd with something bigger for cheaper than the deck upgrade price, and the only other thing the 512 unit has is the antiglare screen
which interferes with screen protectors anyway

[graceful burrow]

all the displays are the same, the 512gb version's screen is just antiglare etched, same panel though

[stoic beacon]

Does it need a screen protector? I figured it had the same gorilla glass as most modern phones

[graceful burrow]

i dont use one and havent had any scratches

[hollow citrus]

ah i see.

[stoic beacon]

Well, maybe I'll consider getting the $400 one then. That's a much easier pill to swallow. I just assumed there would be slowdowns with SD cards. NVME was such a huge upgrade in my PC a while back that I want that in the Deck too.

[graceful burrow]

if you're comfortable taking the back panel off (easy), replacing the ssd is just like replacing any other m.2 ssd

[hollow citrus]

if you keep it in the case all the time you probs dont need one. After like a day i stop noticing screen protectors tho so its probably a good idea to get one.

[stoic beacon]

Oh. Nevermind then, I'll drop my old 1TB M.2 in there lol

[graceful burrow]

unless it's a 2230 ssd it wont fit

m.2 2230 not m.2 2280

[hollow citrus]

oooo theres the catch

[stoic beacon]

It's not the screen protector itself that bothers me, it's the dust build up around screen protectors. I hate that. Haven't used one in a very long time because of that.

[hollow citrus]

thats not that bad tho

[graceful burrow]

no it's fine

you can get 1tb nvme 2230 drives for still less than the premium they're charging for the 256gb deck

[hollow citrus]

thats very true. ive seen some protectors that actually go over the bezels tho to fix that but that means case compatibility is bad

[graceful burrow]

reserve now, they're increasing production

[stoic beacon]

I'll have to check out some reviews comparing the SD card speeds to the internal drive anyways though. I haven't used SD cards in so long that the tech could have come a LONG ways since then.

[hollow citrus]

you could go the ltt route and get that tank armor lookin steam deck case

[graceful burrow]

it's perfectly adequate for gaming kek

[stoic beacon]

I was hoping they would catch up and I wouldn't have to play around with the reserve/order thing and I could just outright order one within a few months

[graceful burrow]

nope

[stoic beacon]

Alright, maybe I'll just get the 64GB one then and get an SD card to go with it

[graceful burrow]

you're gonna have to reserve

[hollow citrus]

same but looks like it could be delayed until next year

[graceful burrow]

delayed
bro they ship new decks every monday and thursday

[stoic beacon]

What makes you think they won't catch up?

[dusty rune]

the demand

[graceful burrow]

new orders are constantly coming in
they're expanding the market significantly right now

they just added two new regions that you can reserve the deck in

[stoic beacon]

Ah, I was under the impression the gap between reservations and deliveries was closing

Maybe I was mistaken

[stoic beacon]

Oh, there it is. That explains it much better.

[graceful burrow]

they're getting faster every monday and thursday

they are shipping out way more decks every drop day than they were when i first got mine

[dusty rune]

still not in retail stores :(

[graceful burrow]

neither is the index what's your point

[dusty rune]

i have a feeling they wont do that

[stoic beacon]

What stores would sell the Steam Deck? Nobody sells the Index

[graceful burrow]

valve doesnt sell hardware in retail stores

[hollow citrus]

the base model comes with a gen 2 x1 pcie storage. Can i use a gen 3 x4 ssd with the base model or do they use a different board or smth?

[hearty spear]

Steamdecks are still backordered for months. Why would they bulk ship to stores to make less money?

[graceful burrow]

yes

[dusty rune]

ig if you have to reserve one to get one, they wont have enough stock for retail

[stoic beacon]

Does Valve ship FedEx still, or are they using UPS? When I got my Index, they used FedEx

[graceful burrow]

fedex only still

[stoic beacon]

Dangit

[hollow citrus]

do i gotta install special software onto the ssd or is it just plug and play?

[graceful burrow]

you're gonna have to reinstall the os but it's as easy as any other pc

[stoic beacon]

FedEx in our area has become notorious for stealing packages lately

[dusty rune]

cant you sue them for that

[eager notch]

Sadge

[eager notch]

If you sign up for a FedEx account though, you can get your packages redirected to Kinkos, that is what I do (for both UPS and FedEx) when I have something expensive I don't want stolen like when my bike was being delivered

[stoic beacon]

Oh, I might try that

ETH merge

[vapid smelt]

USPS also had a net loss of 9.2 Billion in 2020

[hearty spear]

Which I always find to be an amusing mindset.

Cuz nobody says the Military lost over 1 trillion dollars in 2020.

[vapid smelt]

but you cant profit on combat and defense

[hearty spear]

the Military Industrial Complex does, not the tax payer.

[gilded quest]

even if USPS is in the red on the balance sheets, they arguably more than make up for it in provided value to the country

[hearty spear]

Also, USPS is a loss leader for Fedex, UPS, and other "for profit" package transit companies.

[gilded quest]

Although it'd be nice if they actually switched to all-electric (in places its feasible) for the fleet

[hearty spear]

If you mail something to the middle of bumfuck ohio? Fedex ain't delivering it, they're sending it to the local USPS office to deliver it for them.

[gilded quest]

Plus isn't there a dumb thing where USPS has to pre-fund pensions by a ridiculous amount?

[hearty spear]

yeah, that was entirely a thing made to fuck over the USPS

[gilded quest]

such a shame

[lilac sage]

Yep and also a thing where the USPS has to use the same truck design as before instead of going electric

[sudden citrus]

Didn't like... literally every company have a net loss of a fuck ton of money in 2020?

Sounds like we had a global pandemic or something

[gilded quest]

that too

[sudden citrus]

Search "record unemployment rates" in 2020. Most of the world was not so happy :)

A lot of people lost money, but a few people made a lot of money

[lilac sage]

Wasnt that literally for a period of 6 months and then it fixed itself?

[gilded quest]

well, considering we were discussing the United States Postal Service, I was limiting my analogies to american companies lol

[sudden citrus]

I mean, we still have covid restrictions popping up and the economy literally had been declining continuously for the last 2 years straight

so... not really

[gilded quest]

what

[sudden citrus]

Doesn't help that we have idiots in office here

[gilded quest]

[lilac sage]

How does the military make money besides selling weapons/vehicles?

[hearty spear]

massive corporations make billions and billions producing stuff for them

[sudden citrus]

It's going to come back

People get rich... that's how these kinds of economies work

if you don't like the rich folk, you can always move to greece or venezuela

[gilded quest]

capitalism: where the only way to move up is for someone else to move down

[sudden citrus]

That's called survival ;3

Someone has to lose for you to move up in any economy

why do you think communism always ends in violence / collapse lol

people don't like losing or being controlled

[twin raptor]

Not quite, value is always added to the system by means of work being done

[twin raptor]

However it is the most common way

We already know. There was a documentary called "Idiocracy" about it...

[junior mason]

i need help, so something is causing clock watch dog timeout bsod, except no stability test seems to be able to invoke it

on the other hand, warframe causes all sorts of freezes/crashes in minutes,
(this isnt game exclusive error, if i leave my computer idling overnight, it will crash, or randomly doing anything else)

[graceful vector]

Have you turned it off and back on again? 🥸

[junior mason]

.-. ive been dealing with this for months, i think its turned off and on enough times now

heck a brand new installation of win10 and i crashed before i got onto the home screen

[graceful vector]

Ouch, I was just going to ask if you'd uninstalled/reinstalled the game

[junior mason]

ye, definitely not software related, but id like some way to figure out what hardware is causing it, ive tried swapping ram sticks but to no avail, both caused same crashing issues

[graceful vector]

Well a quick Google pulled up a "Clock Watchhdog Timeout Error: Solved" page. Have you tried all of the fixes there?

Did you try single channel? (One stick)

[junior mason]

it aint any of those chief ;-;, i did try them yes,

[errant magnet]

@junior mason if I can ask, what error was on bsod

[junior mason]

ye. only got 2 sticks, tried single stick at 2400mhz

[errant magnet]

If it hasn't already been answered

[graceful vector]

K, just checking. I'm not actually familiar wit Clock Watcdog

[errant magnet]

Usually on bsod it'll say something before restarting

[junior mason]

lemme just get a screenshot of it, time to launch warframe yet again

[graceful vector]

Noticed another Clock Watchdog Timeout Error page on Windows Report. Seems like old drivers are a major problem.

[vapid smelt]

when did this turn into #tech-support

[graceful vector]

@junior mason asked a random question in chat, I answered. You're right though. Not the ideal forum...

[junior mason]

srry, still trying to invoke said error, my fault too asking in general, tho it was quite (not valid excuse but ey)

Would a Linus tech tips PC build with the Pop air orange be good for burning DVDs and gaming?

Just thinking of painting the Unifi XZ 690 orange accents

Let me reframe that

[graceful vector]

What's the question exactly? Are you just asking about the case, or trying to copy a specific build?

[ebon otter]

Make a pc in the pop air orange

That is LTT themed

[stoic beacon]

So you're asking if you paint a PC orange, will it be good for gaming?

[ebon otter]

It was my idea

[graceful vector]

Are they paying you to? I'd make a build in "Me" theme...

[ebon otter]

I’m asking if it would be a good theme

[ebon otter]

No I just like LTT

[stoic beacon]

No, because I don't like orange

[ebon otter]

Cringe

[stoic beacon]

Don't like subjective answers? Don't ask subjective questions.

[vapid smelt]

painting a case orange would be horrible for gaming all the enemy's would see you

[graceful vector]

There's this great new theme I don't think many people are doing yet, it's called "Black & Red"!😆

[graceful vector]

I think the point we're trying to get across is that maybe building a PC based on a Youtube channel you have no affiliation with, isn't the most unique, or original idea...

[ebon otter]

I hate this discord! Everyone turns down my idea! When I was building my pc people always said it sucked and told me NO! Dude I wanted the h510 flow! I like how it looks.

[stoic beacon]

Then leave, I guess

[stoic beacon]

Yes

[lilac sage]

if you are incapable of watching them all, yes.

or if you watched them all, also yes

[stoic beacon]

The simpler answer is, there are not 1200 good movies in existence

[ebon otter]

Should I digitis them

Don't digitize them

[ebon otter]

Ion 2019 they had to cancel school where I live because the smoke made in unbrethable

That's why the farmers in CA are pissed. The government stepped in and stopped natural burns, and now their farms are burning

Because...... Em.... Em.... Em... Emissions!!!!!!

Yeah, so let the natural burns happen each year instead of letting them build up into huge burns

Wow, Japan is far different from what you think lol

So wrong...

[stoic beacon]

If we swapped out Japan for Cali, we'd get high speed trains, good public transit, and a professionalism unmatched on our entire continent, and we'd trade out an entire culture built around iPhones, Starbucks, and how much you can tan without getting sunburnt.

[gilded quest]

They could still use a lot of public transit upgrades. The other issue is housing affordability means a lot of people end up with ridiculous car commutes.

[stoic beacon]

I agree with that, but seriously, when I was there, not a single person would walk ANYWHERE, no matter how short the distance

[graceful vector]

I've been. I even have an ex there now. I've been to SK and SP mutliple times actually. I'm pretty familiar with SEA. And judging by the recent news re: Japan begging their millenials to drink more, and hopefully actually get laid... I'm not off.

You are if you think that equates to weebs and "terrified girls." There is FAR more at play there than you understand

[gilded quest]

I was briefly looking at needing to move to NorCal for a job, and the only places I could afford were like an hour to two (rush hour) from San Jose area. shit was depressing

[ebon otter]

They are making electric car only cars that can be sold by 2025 but then Gaven newsom turns off all power to not start fires. BUT THEN the fires still happen

[stoic beacon]

Not the same issue in the least.

Having functioning public transport =/= citizens getting electric cars

[gilded quest]

The fires are gonna happen, to some degree, no matter what humans try to do to prevent it. Better to setup redundancies and fallbacks so that when there is a fire it doesn't take entire counties/cities offline.

[stoic beacon]

Or just let the small fires burn each year, like they used to for decades

[ebon otter]

I’ve used public traspertation it’s not that bad. It’s cheap, easy, and they have ac on all the time. It’s not even that much longer than taking a car

They should just ban the selli by if car in Ca and force people to use buses or trains. And then the streets can fit more busses and it will be fine

[gilded quest]

When i was driving through so many lightrail stops were in the dead center of like 10 lane highways

[graceful vector]

Yeah, oppressive family morals BS, insanely stressful workaholic culture, bred into tweens that if they don't get a job for ____ firm straight out of college, they're ostracized from the family. Complete lack of childhood male to female socialization. So unsupervised intermingling doesn't happen until college, and by then, they're all in committed relationships with their Wifu pillows

[stoic beacon]

Yes, but the residents wouldn't let that happen because of the car culture. This is why it's a circular issue.

[vapid smelt]

would yall rather live in Cali or Wyoming

[stoic beacon]

Closer than I expected you to understand, but still not quite there

[gilded quest]

While im in my 20's, Cali

[stoic beacon]

Wyoming. Wyoming is beautiful

[ebon otter]

I’m a republican/most people moving out of CA and I vouch for everyone who is leaving CA SUCKS A$$

[vapid smelt]

wtf dude you cant say ass here

[stoic beacon]

He's been self censoring everything

[graceful vector]

I've lived a lot of places, I'm a vet with two filled passports, and I've dated. A lot. I'm well aware of the more "politically correct" versions of the argument, but I've been boots on the ground enough to also acknowledge the uncomfortable realities.

[gilded quest]

people moving out of Cali are heading to sunbelt states are just outbid all the locals on homes/rentals

[ebon otter]

I didn’t. I said A and two dollar signs

[stoic beacon]

This has nothing to do with experience but rather common sense.

[gilded quest]

What's A$$?

[stoic beacon]

Money

[gilded quest]

Aussie dollary-doos?

[ebon otter]

Lmfao

[graceful vector]

Lol, no you're not. You're 17. Your parents are republican, and you haven't heard an unracist viewpoint yet.

[stoic beacon]

That sounds like something somebody in the UK would say

[gilded quest]

dankpods on youtube m8

[stoic beacon]

Wow, you really were being hypocritical earlier...you tried to hide it, but you couldn't, you have to make everything political. Geez louise.

[blissful star]

man why is life always so unfair

[stoic beacon]

Life is work.

[blissful star]

work is not dying from cancer bro like they needed patch that in the next update

[graceful vector]

... I literally responded to a political comment that came out of the blue, based on a broad, oversimplified statement that flew right over the head of the one making it...

[stoic beacon]

I'm pretty sure they're working on it

[blissful star]

i hope they find a cure. my uncle just passed away today

[stoic beacon]

No, you called his parents racist simply because he said he was a member of a political party. Pretty nuts.

[ebon otter]

Dude I can make my own choice and I’m a Christian and I believe that republicans are the best fit for me. They think abortion is bad and so do I. That’s why I want to move to Montana. Instead of seeing strip Club sighs and sighs about gambling. You see signs like “Jesus is love” because a lot of Christians/Jews/mormans live there

[graceful vector]

They already had it, but they're having trouble implementing it as subscription based DLC.

[stoic beacon]

[gilded quest]

Spreek

[ebon otter]

I @ the wrong guy sorry

[gilded quest]

Greekish?

[graceful vector]

What you're referring to ceased to be even an imitation of a political party when they openly advocated for violent insurrection, overthrow of a legitimate election. They are stupid, racist, cultified terrorists, that shouldn't be trusted with children, political office, or heavy machinery.

[blissful star]

also freedom of speech only applies to the government trying to suppress what you say not linus tech tips 🗿

[stoic beacon]

Yup, found it. There it is, folks.

It's reasonable human being that's never supported one party, versus a terrorist organization. Don't confuse the two.
