Vanced got a cease and desist from google, but ReVanced is a new version of vanced that is being developed

[stray apex]

?
that won't make the youtube servers give you higher resolution videos

[hoary furnace]

It's what I get for starting to be active on a discord this big and public

[woeful minnow]

Is it not a mobile app anyways?

[polar fern]

@hoary furnace you think I’m kidding, but that is my day-to-day life interacting with other people.

[woeful minnow]

Why tf do you want 4k on your phone

[hoary furnace]

That they're always telling you that their IQ is through the roof?

[woeful minnow]

can’t even do that on ios

[polar fern]

I don’t remember what the highest setting is for an iPhone with the YouTube app but the higher the setting the faster your battery goes down.

[woeful minnow]

1080p

[hoary furnace]

So, historically, but not checked in a long time. Watching 4k stream on a 1080p monitor still looked better just due to the higher bitrate of the video

I dont know if that's still true though

[polar fern]

@hoary furnace being treated like I’m an idiot because I go don’t go into a massive amount of detail explaining things is extremely frustrating

[fair token]

Hi guy's, here's a code for Fallout 76 from prime gaming that I don't need so thought I'd share it with you. Redeem it in the microsoft store.

Trying to make sure bots don't get the code so replace the first word in the code with a number before redeeming. Good luck and enjoy 🙂

twoMMHV-J9WP6-PFQGK-9K47P-6MY2Z

[hoary furnace]

Yeah that's not what I was laughing about.

[polar fern]

🤷‍♂️

[short copper]

saying that they'll be affected is a bit disingenuous. It's an inconvenience at most that they can't watch youtube at 4k specifically, and unless you're using a big TV/monitor it won't make a huge difference, if a lower income family with a big 4k TV has to not buy youtube premium I'm assuming that they won't care as much about that as other financial issues that they'll be facing, at least where I live and absolutely in other countries as well

[manic torrent]

no, we understand what you are saying

we just think you are fundamentally flawed in your reasoning

[polar fern]

I mean most people don’t want an Encyclopedia article shoved in their face during a conversation

[stray apex]

youtube's free service being marginally worse for a small percentage of people is not really a big deal

[woeful minnow]

This is still all hypothetical so who cares

[hoary furnace]

I'd rather they limit 4k quality than give people 5 more adverts

and i imagine most people would

[stray apex]

probably, yeah

[manic torrent]

I will now lobby youtube to give free tiers UNLIMITED adverts

and the adverts will be in 4k

but the videos will not.

[hoary furnace]

It costs youtube to host videos, it costs them a lot. Higher quality streaming costs them more

[stray apex]

the fact that youtube, which has a monopoly on web video, is actually still totally usable free is already pretty amazing

[hoary furnace]

Netflix has had a 4k paywall for years and years

[short copper]

you're making a mountain out of a molehill and putting it as if it's economic discrimination; and when i think of economic discrimination i can think of far worse things than not being able to watch 4k videos without paying for a subscription on one specific site

[polar fern]

Cool I don’t care

[manic torrent]

so how much is YT premium?

[short copper]

clearly you care if you're saying that youtube locking 4k behind a subscription is Economic Discrimination

[stray apex]

rn it's $12 a month

[hoary furnace]

I guess us low IQ plebs just cant understand your deep rhetorical knowledge

[manic torrent]

lets call it $20/mo, even though it isn't

[stray apex]

I pay $17 for a family sub

[polar fern]

There’s no way I would ever put money into Google they have enough money

[manic torrent]

My friend who is on the disability pension got an increase of $40 per fortnight. His rent just went up $65 A WEEK

[polar fern]

And just because you choose to give them money does not make my argument invalid

[hoary furnace]

It's still hilarious that you think IQ has anything to do with any of this though

[stray apex]

nothing is forcing you to use their service, though

[hoary furnace]

or that IQ is anything that matters

[polar fern]

I mentioned my intelligence because I was been being treated like I’m an idiot for the second time I’m mentioning this

[manic torrent]

IQ is a really good measure of how well you do on an IQ test.

[hoary furnace]

IQ is not a good measurement of intelligence

[polar fern]

I am doing speech to text sorry for the grammatical quality

[manic torrent]

this might shock you, but I'm generally considered pretty clever.

[hoary furnace]

And using it as one does the opposite

[polar fern]

Again I don’t care what you have to say on the issue

[hoary furnace]

anyway i have work to do

[polar fern]

It was me informing whoever was trying to have a conversation with me not something that you can then have an opinion on it’s a fact

[hoary furnace]

this is too fun

[manic torrent]

yeah but you don't want to do it

[hoary furnace]

True, but they pay me to do it

[manic torrent]

yeah it's a catch 22!

... gotta pay for your yt premium somehow

[hoary furnace]

It's economic discrimination that I have to work

[polar fern]

Wow I haven’t blocked anyone in months and in the span of 20 minutes I had to block two people that’s a real shame.

[manic torrent]

I mean you don't HAVE to work

[sonic barn]

IQ tests is just very abstract problem solving that isn't useful

[manic torrent]

but you might find it hard to pay rent and buy food at some point

[polar fern]

Imagine being a jerk towards someone in the process of defending a multi billion dollar multinational corporation. Whew.

[short copper]

just because i think that youre wrong doesnt mean i think googles right

[stray apex]

is this entitlement

[hoary furnace]

I think the 4k quality reduction isnt good, but it's one of their lesser bad ideas of late

compared to 10 adverts, its good

[stray apex]

youtube's problems are basically just that it can suck for creators, mostly due to flawed processes

[polar fern]

?

[hoary furnace]

People should just move to Floatplane

lttstore.com

[manic torrent]

no, many of those are absolutely intentional.

Youtube is a predatory company, that is correct, but as I said before, the prey are creators, not consumers

[sonic barn]

It's 0C outside

[manic torrent]

I mean, consumers get screwed as well, but in totally different ways

[polar fern]

As someone who uses Google to live stream on YouTube and also for email and maps and search I can’ tell you that YouTube was better before Google.

[stray apex]

what's predatory about it?

[polar fern]

Putting social economic pressure on people to pay for something so people don’t perceive them as being lesser than is predatory

[sonic barn]

Massively unprofitable during that time

[stray apex]

the worst thing about youtube is that it is a monopoly
but that has more to do with the difficulty of running a web streaming platform than anything else

[manic torrent]

I had a good video about this, but I lost it. It is relatively subtle in what it does, but it is not anyones friend

[stray apex]

of course not, they're a business

[polar fern]

The worst thing about YouTube is that it’s owned by Google.

[hoary furnace]

Alphabet

[manic torrent]

"... and it was capitalism all along!"

[hoary furnace]

I think we can all agree that youtube needs more competitors, floatplane, curiosity stream, vimeo, whatever

[stray apex]

that's just not possible

[hoary furnace]

although i guess tiktok is a competitor now

[stray apex]

youtube only works at all because of google's dominance in ads

[manic torrent]

ugh, tiktok is horrific.

[polar fern]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again Google should be broken up into its components.

[manic torrent]

tiktok is a great way to disseminate misinformation and straight out lies.

[stray apex]

that's just the internet

[hoary furnace]

and for cute animal videos

[manic torrent]

nono, tiktok it's basically weaponised

[hoary furnace]

i only use tiktok via proxy though

[manic torrent]

yeah that's how they get ya

[hoary furnace]

my fiance curates a tiktok list for me every day

and then shows me at bedtime the best

[polar fern]

And I will also say that Telcoms using their money to pay executives instead of investing back into their own network (landline or cellular) is a large part of why things like 4K streaming is so expensive for those services

[hoary furnace]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Jwo5qc78QU is a very good video for anyone who hasnt seen it

[stray apex]

tiktok is one of the largest platforms on the internet, of course people use it to spread misinformation
the same happens on facebook, and reddit, and every single large social media platform

[hoary furnace]

and Tiktok has different morals/objectives of moderation to US based companies

[polar fern]

Fact checking content trends is definitely a tricky subject

[stray apex]

not really...?

[polar fern]

It’s not like you can employ millions of people to go through every single video

[hoary furnace]

@manic torrent do you sync the leds to the screen content or just match it to some colour scheme

[manic torrent]

yes

[polar fern]

And on platforms like Twitter you have to get a massive amount of reports on any tweet to get it taken down

[hoary furnace]

nice

I would like to do that for my tv, but thats hard, but maybe i should do it to new monitor, when they make one good enough

[manic torrent]

yes, but tiktok is very bad for it - I'm not just talking shit, it's been studied.

[hoary furnace]

i just want an ultrawide monitor with a high refreshrate with the same pixel density as a 4k 27"

[stray apex]

is it worse than facebook was?
the internet is ultimately only a reflection of us

algorithms are trained on people

[manic torrent]

yes, something like 20% of content is misinformation

[stray apex]

if tiktok pushes a lot of misinformation, then that misinformation is getting views

if people like misinformation
then the algorithm will recommend it

[terse zodiac]

why is dell so bad

[hoary furnace]

people love misinformation about their opposing political viewpoints

[hoary furnace]

economic discrimination

[polar fern]

Facebook I think it’s slightly different because they had user data which was used to manipulate the platform. On Twitter it’s a little bit different because you don’t need to interact with an account to see a post. Instead of sharing it for retweeting people can take a screenshot and post that instead I don’t see people on Facebook posting a lot of screenshots of other posts on Facebook

[manic torrent]

TADA

[terse zodiac]

[hoary furnace]

[sonic barn]

Facebook is big for marketplace

[manic torrent]

[manic torrent]

[terse zodiac]

ddr5 4800 and Australia

[polar fern]

Fully buffered error correcting memory is much more expensive than the typical memory most computers have

[hoary furnace]

Those are two factors known for expensive tech

[manic torrent]

what is using full buffered ram these days

[hoary furnace]

i doubt they're looking at

[terse zodiac]

i can buy ddr5 32gb kit for $18.406 per GB at the loacl shop

[hoary furnace]

good news, you should be able to just insert it into the dell pc

[polar fern]

Australia always get screwed with pricing

[manic torrent]

yes. Dell isn't marketing to you. They do not care even one tiny bit

[hoary furnace]

because while dell does a lot of OEM, their ram sticks are not

[polar fern]

A few years back there was a company where all they did was ship stuff to some place where it was a lot cheaper for Australians to buy it from

I’m not sure if they are still around

[hoary furnace]

Gotta be careful with grey imports though as you often lose your warranty

[polar fern]

They did a lot of household stuff vacuum cleaners so on & so forth typically North American brands computers & furniture

[hoary furnace]

was it ebay?

[polar fern]

I don’t remember the name of the company I think it was like just one guy and a small team that he put together

[hoary furnace]

yay the pound has gone back up, thanks miss trussywuss

[polar fern]

From what I remember he was having some legal issues with the operation he was doing and it was highlighted somewhere on a tech forum last I heard he was awaiting the outcome of some sort of import tariff thing

[hoary furnace]

What sort of machine are you looking for? But it's likely you can just buy the ram at your local store and install it yourself, and save a good amount of money.
but then you might just want to look at your local store to see if they'll do a better PC for you at the same price

[polar fern]

I do remember specifically on one form that he had to stop doing this with Apple branded products I think that’s where he first came up on the radar for me

[manic torrent]

Kogan?

[polar fern]

In any case if he’s still around it might be something worth looking into if you’re trying to buy stuff from North America

Depending on the quality of the construction of said air mattress it would probably also deflate quite quickly

[wispy marsh]

Linus is correct

[polar fern]

About what?

[wispy marsh]

Nothing is waterproof, only water-resistant

They're making a raincoat that they want to be as water-resistant as much as possible

[polar fern]

I wonder if they’re going to use that hyvent type fabric

[wispy marsh]

hyvent?

No, I hyven't heard of it

[polar fern]

I have a raincoat and it is 100% hyvent and it does not let water drip through

It’s a fabric that Allows water vapour to pass through but not droplets of liquid

[wispy marsh]

Kinda like a reverse osmosis filter then

[polar fern]

No it’s a multi material fabric

Traditionally raincoats are vinyl or rubber and overtime they wear out and crack

If I am shovelling snow and it starts turning a little bit to rain or even wet snow I will put on my raincoat on top of my warmth layers. Is super amazing and I can’t imagine shovelling snow without it

I mean I definitely have jackets that I can wear if it’s damp and wet snow it will build up in little creases etc & it will melt and soak through

Someone got me a north face triclimate jacket as a gift many years ago and the shell was an early version of hyvent. Unfortunately I put it in the washer a bunch of times & does not seem as water resistant anymore

My raincoat however has not been in the laundry yet. Even if I get some dirt on it I am unlikely to put it in the laundry. I’d rather have a good raincoat with a dirty spot on it than a crappy raincoat that looks clean

[void wedge]

well i need to know if its good

[upbeat ridge]

I have the 5600H in my current laptop can definitely say that it lasts hours longer than my Intel 10400H

[dusty rune]

yeah its good

[hearty spear]

That strikes me as odd, since I have 6TB in 4 drives in my tower lol

and have.... 4 sata ports left over

[glacial basin]

wow

[upbeat ridge]

I have 4 SATA ports (all occupied) and one NVMe slot (also occupied)

[glacial basin]

which motherboard

you're due for an upgrade

[upbeat ridge]

I do have another M.2 port, but it shares bandwidth with one of the SATA ports

[hearty spear]

is it ITX? I could see ITX being that limited

bruh intel ipo got destroyed

[fossil dirge]

Well Intel is good

But damn that sucks

[sonic barn]

mobileye

expected was 50 billion, then it was 30 billion expected, now intel is hoping for 20 billion

they got earnings on the 28th though so they are clearly trying to pull people in before whatever they report

[fossil dirge]

It's probably that Mobileye is not doing well

[sonic barn]

its doing better than intel

[fossil dirge]

Oh I see

So that means Mobileye is doing good for Intel

[sonic barn]

yes but intel is underperforming

earnings is on the 28th though, if they got everything back under control, I might buy back their stock again

[wraith sonnet]

I fucking wish I could buy or sell intel stock

But insider trading

[fossil dirge]

Well AMD is making better and cheaper Ryzen processors

So that's why Intel is not doing so well

[sonic barn]

yeah it always drops after every earnings which is when they pay their employees in stocks

[sonic barn]

amd has 10x less employees and basically no debt

and amd has taken intel's data center market share

[fossil dirge]

Damn

Looks like both Intel and AMD aren't doing so well

At least Apple is doing well with their silicon chips

[sonic barn]

well when u got no one buying, then sales drop

apple hasn't been affected yet

[fossil dirge]

Yeah

[sonic barn]

but they are 2.5 trillion

they can't keep growing fast forever

[fossil dirge]

Apple has more money since they are a trillion dollar company

[sonic barn]

I'm sort of tired of Spotify showing my "Liked Songs" and "My Episodes" at the top of my playlists. The UI is just getting messier and messier over time. My wife and I are going to switch music services...what do you all recommend? Currently looking at Tidal and YouTube Music (mostly because of YT Premium)

[stuck stratus]

youtube music is probably the closest competitor but rn none of the services have as good of a queue or podcast integration as spotify does

[hoary furnace]

Tidal?

[gilded quest]

dedicated podcast clients > spotify

[dry trellis]

Depends on how much you value privacy

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, I don't want to use Spotify for podcasts anymore. I can use Google podcasts for that

[stuck stratus]

maybe but they don't offer a way to queue up both music and podcasts

nice for long road trips

[stoic beacon]

I don't want my podcasts anywhere near my music

[gilded quest]

pocket casts > google podcasts

[gilded quest]

you can just swap between apps lol but sure

[stoic beacon]

Sweet, I'll have to look into it, thanks! What do you recommend for music?

[dry trellis]

Is there an actual good standalone podcast player on android. Like I can load in my own files and play it like a podcast

[gilded quest]

YT music....

[stuck stratus]

yes very easy to do while driving

[stoic beacon]

Ouch...is the shuffle still busted on it?

[gilded quest]

?

[dry trellis]

Many podcasts I have are unavailable now. Would love to have a proper player for them

[gilded quest]

their algorithm is just so much better than spotify

[stoic beacon]

Last time I checked (I think Linus and Luke talked about it a few weeks ago as well) YT Music doesn't truly shuffle your playlists. Every time you shuffle a playlist, it goes in the exact same order

[stuck stratus]

yeah yt music has issues

[gilded quest]

do you really swap from a podcast episode to a bunch of music back to podcasts?

[stuck stratus]

all the time

[gilded quest]

only when casting

[stoic beacon]

It also mixed in a ton of garbage from my regular YT as well, which was weird

[gilded quest]

like using the app on the phone or the website i never notice repeated shuffles

[stoic beacon]

Maybe I'll give it another shot then. Might be a better choice than Tidal in the long run, since it'd still be easy to share stuff with people. Spotify is so universally used in the US that it's hard to share music unless you're using it

[gilded quest]

but yelling at the google home only has one shuffle order

[stoic beacon]

That's such an oddly specific issue

[gilded quest]

yeah if you liked anything on youtube that can be counted as music, its also gonna be a part of YT music

the "my likes" playlist has some odd stuff cause of that, but the supermix and mix stations rarely pull those tracks

[gilded quest]

casting also has bugs when trying to modify the queue

[stoic beacon]

I don't really "like" stuff in music apps though. I don't want algorithms, mixes, etc. I just want my playlists that I've made, with my songs. If I want to add a song to it, I'll add it to a playlist

[gilded quest]

in that case YT music probably isn't for you

[past egret]

also yt music is only 256 kbps

[finite cloud]

Ive had random meme songs I’ve listened to show up on YTM

[past egret]

while spotify is 320 kbps which isnt much and you probably cant hear the difference

[gilded quest]

yeah the "my likes" playlist includes all the YT videos that are technically music ive liked

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, not a super huge fan of that unfortunately. I wish there was a better option, dang

[stuck stratus]

no spotify is also 256kb/s

[gilded quest]

if youre using bluetooth headphones like 90% of people the stream bitrate isn't gonna make a difference

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, I mainly am listening on little bluetooth earbuds. Not really worried about quality all that much

[gilded quest]

for me, I really only listen to music "radio" style, so YT music is perfect for me

[stuck stratus]

it just uses compression to be "equivalent to" 320kb/s whatever that means

but it's still 256kb/s

[gilded quest]

making playlists just seems like so much work

[stuck stratus]

yeah spotify radio stations are shit

[gilded quest]

yeah basically why i stopped using spotify

[past egret]

they both have their ups and downsides

[stuck stratus]

but I just have specific playlists for everything

[finite cloud]

Spotify does it for me and does and okay job. Expect for my Daily Mix 1. It’s lofi music but it never plays anything new. The same like 4 songs plus some others I’ve listened to

[past egret]

also when the fuck is spotify HI-FI

[gilded quest]

whereas my YTM supermix is

[stuck stratus]

it's gonna be a hot minute

[gilded quest]

spotify never updated my daily mixes

idk if it was a bug or a feature

[past egret]

they said last year, then it was early this year and then its i dont even

[stoic beacon]

That's fair...I think part of it is just that I've used it for so long that I have playlists of hundreds and thousands of songs, plus my wife and my shared playlists, which is really fun

[finite cloud]

Supposed to be a higher quality version of Spotify with CD/Lossless quality. However, they have been quite about it since it was announced

[gilded quest]

yeah i really only started listening to music with the streaming age

i basically started with algorithms and haven't really been tempted to stop

[stoic beacon]

I came over from the physical music age, so I'm used to saying "I feel like listening to this album right now." Or, in other times "I feel like listening to all my favorite songs from this genre right now." For the first, I just pick the album. For the second, I just pick the playlist.

[stoic beacon]

I think I'm one of the few people who prefers to not have "new music" all the time. I like my music, and I just somewhat listen to the same stuff that I've listened to for the last few decades

[past egret]

where do you compare cpus again?

so its like 12 hours feeling like its wasted, problem is if I do that then my current degree I am going for will be basically on pause until I come back to it

I was in ib for my highschool

pain

I'm behind in things because I don't do the homework since I get home at 8pm after waking up at 6am

on avg I get 5hrs of sleep a day

same

[lilac sage]

on the bright side

he can put a 5600 in it

no need to change the motherboard out

he could prob get a 5800X3D given his motherboard VRMs isnt awful and he gets a nice cooler

[stoic beacon]

Dang, what are you wanting to play that can't be run off of that?

[stoic beacon]

I ended up finding one I had never heard of before that looks like it has a pretty good user interface and allows you to manage your content really well...it's called Deezer

Kind of an odd name, but I guess no more than Spotify or Tidal

[wintry dagger]

tbf my 3900x is struggling

[weak fox]

how can i erase something like gore off of my mind?

a dude at school showed me a picture of a jeffery dahmer victim.

[eternal hearth]

over time

[stoic beacon]

It goes away over time. Just don't look up more of it. Also, when you do think of it, produce something, like drawing, playing music, making food, etc.

Production of any sort is the best way to get heavy things off of your mind

[weak fox]

why make food when i will puke

[stoic beacon]

That's why there are other options

[weak fox]

thanks

[sonic barn]

music industry sucks

[stoic beacon]

Read the chat...

[sonic barn]

oh thought u were suggesting something for them to go into

[lilac sage]

music industry is great at providing so many options to forget something

[sonic barn]

but not as a career

[stoic beacon]

No, just something to do to get their mind off of things

[sonic barn]

or you can watch HOTD

[lilac sage]

house of the dead?

they have an anime or something?

[stoic beacon]

No, he's talking about Hair of the Dog

It's an old British movie

[lilac sage]

Typing of the Dead is the best educational game imo

[stoic beacon]

Oh, this looks like fun. I'll have to try it out

I always tell people my typing abilities are from gaming back before there was voice chat

You had to type VERY quickly.

[full fossil]

I hate seeing the server you love start to die

[sonic barn]

house of the dragon

smh

[full fossil]

God I love it when my dad gets pissed at me because my mom says I said something, when I didn’t

[sonic barn]

💀

@stoic beacon you probably enjoy watching rings of power

and that new star wars show

[stoic beacon]

I'm loving Rings of Power so far. Haven't watched Andor yet

I also enjoy reading books though, so the worldbuilding of Rings of Power isn't boring me like a lot of other people

I didn't go into it expecting another Marvel movie

[sonic barn]

and you dislike hotd

💀

[stoic beacon]

It was hard to watch GoT after reading the books, HotD was basically more of the same, but somehow with less storytelling and more incest

So yeah, I wasn't a fan

[sonic barn]

I didn't read the books but it has story telling, just jumps around

[stoic beacon]

Nah

[sonic barn]

Hmm

[sonic barn]

Marvel makes trash now

[lilac sage]

I thought they were working on the Green Giant tie in series?

[sonic barn]

She hulk

[stoic beacon]

They have been pretty much since Thor 2 came out

[lilac sage]

https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Green_Giant_(Earth-TRN923) nah this guy

green giant series when?

[stoic beacon]

But that fast action and dopamine hits are what everyone wants now, so obviously, HOTD has to match

[sonic barn]

Hotd is good imo

[stoic beacon]

I prefer the heavier storytelling and character building of shows like Rings of Power

But it helps that I love the books as well

[sonic barn]

Lol

[lilac sage]

ye the house of the dead series is not bad

solid arcade shooters

[sonic barn]

House of the donkey

[lilac sage]

I think the 2nd game is the best

[sonic barn]

Play as Shrek

[lilac sage]

Typing of the Dead 2 also exists

its just HOTD 3 with typing mechanics

[sonic barn]

Call of the dead

[silent bolt]

Just got a NZXT prebuilt with a 3060 and can finally appreciate 4k gaming but I'm curious if anyone doesn't use the recommended 150% or whatever your display recommends scale and sets it to 100 to keep it consistent for streaming purposes (like OBS)

[lilac sage]

no clue what you mean

[silent bolt]

So I have a dual monitor setup, so I can stream console games if I'm not streaming PC games. The 2nd monitor is 1080p with a 100% scaling setting. My 4K display recommends 150% scaling and will screw up window captures if I drag the windows to the different displays, I'm just curious if it's a big deal to set the scaling to 100% and keep the 4k resolution setting on my display for windows or if should dumb it down to 1080p for consistency for OBS

[crisp isle]

If you can see the icons at 100% so there is no problem. It is more an accessibility feature than anything functional

[glacial mesa]

hey

[hoary furnace]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDgolMkLREA

lmao GIVE ME A FUCKING BACK BUTTON

[fossil frost]

windows 10 and 11 (and all other versions of windows) have incredibly terrible scalling support when you switch between scalling numbers. i have a laptop with a 4k screen, that i dock to a setup with 3x 1080p 24" monitors, and every time i dock/undock, i have to manually fix all my window sizese

[stoic beacon]

Those look pretty good! I'll pick some up when they work with my phone

[hoary furnace]

I have the Sony he talks about, they're good, but fragile from my experience so far, and not the most comfortable

[stoic beacon]

I'm running the Pixel Buds A-Series, though I do wish I had waited just a few months longer for the Pro ones to come out

I don't really care about ANC personally

Every time I listen to music, I'm in an environment where I need people to be able to get my attention

So ANC is a no-go

[fossil frost]

ANC is a must for me, because when im working, if somebody is trying to get my attention and they are successful, i will have to murder them

[stoic beacon]

"We are not the same"

I got 2000

[fossil frost]

yep, which is why i have no sympathy at all when americans complain about fuel prices

[rare python]

Does anyone think the new Intel CPU's will win vs AMD in gaming performance?

[sonic barn]

If crude oil goes to 50$ I'm gonna buy nitro for everyone here

You guys got TTF down and UK gas

[sonic barn]

I doubt it

[vapid smelt]

Buying dead plants smh

[sonic barn]

Wdym

[vapid smelt]

Oil is dead plants and shit from way back when

Not dinosaurs yet sadly

[rare python]

I'm in a dilemma right now, was looking forward to upgrading my 7700k (lol) to the new amd line. Then on release I saw they didn't release any 650 boards and I don't wanna spend the extra bucks for 670. Then also it seems the 5800x3d performed better in 1080p gaming as well. Then now Intel is releasing their new CPU's on Oct 20 so I might as well wait, I already waited 4 months lol

[sonic barn]

In Canada it comes from sand, others it's drilled from oragnic stuff from long time ago that decays

[vapid smelt]

What's your current cpu

[gilded quest]

wait till Zen4X3D in Q1

[gilded quest]

bruh can u read

[vapid smelt]

Though he meant r7 7700x

[sonic barn]

7700k is still good

[vapid smelt]

Reading is difficult for me today

[sonic barn]

You're better than the majority of people out there

[dusty rune]

take a nap

[rare python]

It's decent but I'm bottlenecking my 3070

[teal estuary]

B650 is coming out this month, so, thats a consideration for new CPU

[sonic barn]

What games do you all play that are demanding

[vapid smelt]

I wouldn't buy a 5800x3d unless you are already in the am4 eco system

[rare python]

I'm thinking it's probably best to get a B650 with either a 7600X or 7700X then wait for the Zen4x3D next year

[vapid smelt]

7600x has a real value problem

[sonic barn]

I only play CSGO

[gilded quest]

fortunately DDR5 is starting to come down a little bit

[sonic barn]

💀

[rare python]

I play mainly Apex and Dota which doesn't give me stable 240fps

[sonic barn]

12600k beats it in productivity

[sonic barn]

Imo don't buy anything until December

[gilded quest]

can u stop your economy stuff

its so annoying

[sonic barn]

Why December?

Liquidation before Q4 earnings

Do you think Nvidia will sell a lot of GPUs for msrp

[gilded quest]

yes

[sonic barn]

They ordered a ton

[gilded quest]

well 40 series they will

[golden talon]

it’ll perform worse than 7600X in single core but way better in multi

[rare python]

Aka cheaper pricing?

[sonic barn]

We'll see

[sonic barn]

Yes for everything

[rare python]

Ok, yeah I can wait for sure, no stress

[gilded quest]

i just feel like everytime we've complained about nvidia's pricing people still buy it all up anyways

[vapid smelt]

Idk the cores are better and more refined could see a good jump in single core @golden talon

I did buy a Nvidia product the other week. The Nvidia shield pro

[rare python]

Isn't nvidia in big trouble with having a bunch of 3000 series cards still in stock?

[gilded quest]

oh you can pre-order 13th gen

interesting

[vapid smelt]

I refuse to preorder things

[lusty heron]

is there anyone here who knows anything about transfering files from mbp to gpt?

[teal estuary]

the only pre-order of things id do, is if ill be able to cancel my order

[teal estuary]

MBR -> GPT?

[lusty heron]

yea

[teal estuary]

what are you trying to do?

[stoic beacon]

If I had to guess, we're a loud minority, whereas, the majority of people probably remember the driver hell that AMD GPUs introduced you to, and then they switched to Nvidia and it "just worked." Now they're afraid to try again

[lusty heron]

let Smart acsess memory work

[gilded quest]

nviddmkm.sys has crashed

[lusty heron]

it is a whole ordeal

[gilded quest]

"nvidia drivers stable"

[teal estuary]

what part of SAM needs GPT?

[lusty heron]

ok

time to write a enitre paragraph

[dusty rune]

idk man, my drivers are still crashing

[stoic beacon]

Historically, in my experience, they were, by a considerable margin. And that's comparatively. Your mileage may vary

The thing is, it's REALLY easy to piss off consumers and really hard to win them back

[gilded quest]

last few driver versions have been crashing for me

[dusty rune]

yeah same

[gilded quest]

sometimes in game, sometimes idle at desktop

[dusty rune]

when i boot up into a game they crash

[stoic beacon]

I actually don't even know what version of drivers I'm running at the moment

I haven't updated them in.........a long time.

[gilded quest]

i've ddu'd a few times but no dice
maybe I need to nuke windows again

or just download a year old driver and not touch anything

[night heron]

i had more driver issues with my 1070 than i do my 6900xt

but ive had issues with both

[stoic beacon]

Generally a good rule of thumb is, unless it's security related, if it isn't broken, don't fix it

[gilded quest]

my laptop 2060 has been fine, but my 1080ti is crashing now

[near nebula]

mhmm

I actually found a workaround with why AMD was bugging out on Windows 11

[teal estuary]

i haven't had any problems with the recent-ish studio driver im using

[near nebula]

some features Microsoft locked out on 11, so I fixed it by disabling Windows Security/Defender features on 10 and then upgrading to the recent build

[teal estuary]

516.94 is the exact version, but so long as you dont get the bleeding edge driver you probably wont have stability issues

[near nebula]

and I've not seen any issues with the Radeon software due to doing that

[lusty heron]

I dmed u the issue

[dusty rune]

im installing drivers and its been a black screen for a solid 5 minutes

should i be worried

[gilded quest]

naw

"it just works"

[teal estuary]

you see, the black screen is a part of the experience
the only way to fully understand what its like to use an Nvidia GPU is to experience not having one at all

[dusty rune]

ok its been 10 minutes, somethings def wrong

[vapid smelt]

Todd Howard "It just works" meaning it's full of bugs?

Is there any estimate on when the wave 1 backpacks will be shipped?

I'm going to be trucking across the country and I'm hoping it arrives before I leave

I understand there was shipping delay but I'm just getting worried I might not be able to get it before I leave.

[vapid smelt]

Some people already got their ltt 🎒

[stuck stratus]

most of them should be shipped at this point

got mine a few weeks ago

and not sure if the box num corresponds to the order of backpacks shipped but it was 6,405

[vapid smelt]

Know some people from NZ and Australia that got their bag

[full fossil]

God I’m becoming increasingly aware of the possibility of a world war within the next few years and how likely it is Russia is about to launch nukes since they’re transporting warheads and how our president is an idiot and will likely get us all killed and there is absolutely nothing that I can do about any of it

Trying to figure out which to get for my 3D tv

[polar fern]

They have used anaglyph glasses for movies

[night heron]

you’ll have to look up what type of 3d your tv uses and what glasses it requires

[polar fern]

anaglyph glasses are the blue & red type ones

Complimentary color to be specific

[night heron]

if your tv uses passive 3d you can use the throwaway movie theater glasses

if it’s active you’ll have to find special glasses

[sonic spruce]

I’ve tried the one from the theaters didn’t work

I’ll look up the model rn

[polar fern]

Passive is typically done with frame alternation

[sonic spruce]

Sharp
LC-60LE847U

I will check what it is rn

[polar fern]

Rn? A nurse?

[sonic spruce]

It’s active

It’s active 3D

[sonic spruce]

[dry trellis]

Linus’s short circuit on the AirPods speaks to me when he brought up iPhone controls

Know how many times I still try to long press to open wiki settings after owning this thing for a year

[sonic spruce]

Now to figure out how to get 5 active 3d glasses at a affordable price

[dry trellis]

How much I’d like to open cell settings to manually switch between 5g and LTE when I determine the signal is better

Can’t wait to my next next phone and have it not be apple

[night heron]

you can

[dry trellis]

I’m trying. Still can’t

I mean from the drop down menu

[polar fern]

@sonic spruce https://tvpartsforsale.com/product/sharp-koptla006wjn1-new-active-3d-glasses-2-pair/

[dry trellis]

A shortcut to long press the icon

I know I can open settings manually to do it

[night heron]

settings -> cellular -> cellular data options -> voice&data -> LTE

[dry trellis]

But long pressing the icon should have the option of directly bringing me to the settings

I know I can do that. I do it daily

Just want a fucking shortcut. And apple in their infinite wisdom does not implement such basic ass features

Only “Disconnecting Nearby Wi-Fi until tomorrow”

I should be able to long press the icon to get to the settings immediately

[polar fern]

That’s a carrier thing not an apple thing.

[opaque mantle]

ah, Apple Inc. forever chasing android in some of their features 🙂

[dry trellis]

Just make a shortcut. Let me hold the icon to bring me to settings. Simple

[polar fern]

Disagree

[dry trellis]

Regardless I guess I’m replacing this piece of shit with an android in only a few months anyway so won’t affect me for too much longer

[polar fern]

Instead of whining in here like a 4 year old, call them or submit suggestion.

[dry trellis]

I gave apple a chance for a year. They disappointed greatly

[polar fern]

Otherwise please spare us the tantrum

[dry trellis]

I’m relating directly to what Linus said in one of his most recent videos

Do we not talk about LTT videos here?

[opaque mantle]

i had to send a number to someone i was on the phone with the other day via message (i was on my Mrs. iPhone) - android, press and hold, copy, switch apps to phone, hamburger menu, send message long press paste - done - iPhone ???

[sonic spruce]

Cheaper on eBay

[polar fern]

No. You’re barging in here complaining.

[dry trellis]

I guess talking about what Linus said in a most recent video is banned

[sonic spruce]

It was a joke

The joke being I’m not spending $100 on 3D glasses ffs

[polar fern]

Wasn’t referring to you & your tv m8 🤣

[night heron]

[sonic spruce]

Oh my bad

[polar fern]

They are expensive.

[sonic spruce]

True

$20 for 1 pair jeez

[night heron]

cheaper than i thought they’d be tbf

[sonic spruce]

$68 for 5 pairs

[sonic spruce]

How much you thinking?

[dry trellis]

His rant starts at 11:10 on the most recent short circuit video. I can tell you Linus should have a lot more pull power with apple than I

[night heron]

i thought they’d be like $80 a pair

i’ve never looked at them

[dry trellis]

Since you clearly don’t keep up and think I’m talking about nothing

[night heron]

you’re just being toxic is what you’re doing

@sonic spruce keep in mind you’ll need batteries for the 5 pairs as well

[opaque mantle]

so with the poor job of team green doing with the 4000 series and EVGA dropping them - what's team Red up to in the GFX space? I have $2000 to drop on a new card (currently have a 1060GTX) - need a short card as its for a SFF case

[sonic spruce]

Why?

[night heron]

amds top card(s) the 6900xt and 6950xt are roughly equivalent to a 3080-3090 depending on resolution and workload

and they’re claiming they achieved a 50% performance per watt improvement with their next generation of radeon 7000 series gpus

[opaque mantle]

Thanks i'll keep it in mind, native is Full HD - 1920x1080

[night heron]

active 3d glasses sync with your tv and shutter each of your eyes individually

[sonic spruce]

And there’s no recharging ones?

[night heron]

i mean i’m sure you can use rechargeable batteries in them

but they require batteries to function

[sonic spruce]

Look at these ones?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/124815323319?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=v8bzmagys9m&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=-ie92xqqthi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

[opaque mantle]

are they active 3d?

[sonic spruce]

Yes

[opaque mantle]

that could be reason why you would need to power them

[sonic spruce]

Passive or active idfk

The ones for the tv

[opaque mantle]

passive 3d are the ones you use at the movies. Correction - Linus did a segment back in May: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dbjb2spwQVg

[sonic spruce]

I need active

Maybe take part of that $2000 and invest in a monitor upgrade as well

And when you feel like u know something or saw something before, it's actually you remembering

I have to say I am loving this updated setup of my monitors.

[naive hemlock]

what's the best aftermarket mouse skates for control

[barren galleon]

[scarlet fjord]

Will upgrading from S21 Ultra to the new Iphone 14 pro max make sense?

[barren galleon]

not for me

i doubt it would to anyone

[scarlet fjord]

Why so?

[barren galleon]

well there isn't that big difference

and also for me i hate apple

[tepid bolt]

iphone 8 was the last worthwhile upgrade

iphone 8-14 is all the same

[barren galleon]

and depending on ur usecase s21 will be more than fine

[barren galleon]

that just reminds me of a picture of ip11 to 14 backs that all look the same

[tepid bolt]

because they are the same

same with the samsung s10-s22

[graceful burrow]

New pfp shanic

[dreamy rose]

there's literally nothing different about the 11-14.

[graceful burrow]

[barren galleon]

[tepid bolt]

willow made me

[barren galleon]

Ok no with thoose theres atleast a slight camera design change

[graceful burrow]

Checks out

[barren galleon]

on iph it's just the camera size

[dreamy rose]

oh sorry, they shot the 14 and called the bullet Wound "Dynamic island"

[barren galleon]

also did we mention the lighting connector

[barren galleon]

[tepid bolt]

Hi I'm Aldonist

[dreamy rose]

i'd rather Bezels like the Largepod like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taNqWqtVWqA

[barren galleon]

more bezel than screen

i love it

imo the iphones are just a downgrade to like Samsung flagships for example

[dreamy rose]

iphones have always been inferior

[echo ridge]

ehh early iphones were better then early androids

[sonic spruce]

Why is 750 ti 2 gbs and 745 4 gbs?

[manic torrent]

wtf are you looking at ancient GPUs

[dreamy rose]

Early android had features that didn't come till iOS 14. plus the original iPhone was limited to a single provider.

Which, the 2 and 3 were the same thing

[pure escarp]

[sonic spruce]

He’s talking about helping me

[pure escarp]

i dont like radeon gpus

[sonic spruce]

I prefer nvidia to raedeon tbh

[pure escarp]

yea

[sonic spruce]

I’ll go Radeon if I have to tho

[full fossil]

Makes sense

It’s reasonable

[sonic spruce]

So basically a gtx 745?

[dreamy rose]

Intel proved to be the master of Cringe and Nvidia did a Colossal Fuckup, expect Radeon to be the top for a while

[tepid bolt]

basically a gtx 770

[pure escarp]

the intel a series did LOOK fire tho

[sonic spruce]

Oh my bad

[pure escarp]

that shit was clean af

[vapid smelt]

in 3dmark fire strike the rx 560 murders the gtx 745

[dreamy rose]

their presentation was just Ego stroking and Awkward "please clap" moments'

[hybrid shell]

i didn't even know the gtx 745 was a thing

[vapid smelt]

your not alone

[dreamy rose]

me neither tbh

[sonic spruce]

Does it do better than 750 Ti?

[vapid smelt]

o god the gtx 745 uses ddr3 memory

[sonic spruce]

Oh yeah btw my pc has only 1 exhaust fan, no intake

[vapid smelt]

here is a gtx 760

[pure escarp]

the cpu is way different

[sonic spruce]

[sonic spruce]

They cheap af for bad one

[hybrid shell]

[sonic spruce]

For $50?

[sonic spruce]

Why you no look for one?

[dreamy rose]

as a Whole system

[sonic spruce]

People throw our whole pc sometimes

[sonic spruce]

The whole laptop is $50??!!

[hybrid shell]

not even a phone is $50

well brand new

[dreamy rose]

who said anything like that? no of course not. its pointless trying to piece together such an old build like this?

[sonic spruce]

You can literally get a phone for free

[sonic spruce]

So what’s are you trying to tell me?

[dreamy rose]

if you look hard enough you can get a Samsweet SSD

[sonic spruce]

Oh the ssd

Yeah I have a plan for that

You know microcenter’s free ssd?

[dreamy rose]

you're better off looking at a low end AMD Laptop

[sonic spruce]

Send me the amazon link

[sonic spruce]

How tf is that $50?

[sonic spruce]

Don’t tempt me

[sonic spruce]

I mean that is affordable

[dreamy rose]

i didn't say it was 50 dollars. i Said you were better off spending your money on a laptop instead of going for a build on Obsolete junk

[sonic spruce]

I already have the pc uilt

[dreamy rose]

trust me, 10 year old hardware gets you nowhere

[sonic spruce]

I just need a video card for it until next October

[dreamy rose]

why did you waste your time and money on it?

[sonic spruce]

It’s a pre-built I got for free ffs

anyways there’s not a lot of room for cold air to get in, just 2 vents in the case

[dreamy rose]

well don't buy obsolete hardware and buy something that will actually serve you better.

[sonic spruce]

So a gtx 1660?

[dreamy rose]

the laptop.
