slight one, much more noticable on AMD systems, but not worth an upgrade from 3200 c16 imo
oo, have fun! cya!
Both have 10ns first word latency
damn, i paid a couple dollars more for 3600
Has anyone else noticed we haven't seen Anthony in quite a while? Any idea where he is?
On planet earth
he did a full video a few days ago didnt he?
He did?
i thought he had... but, i cant seem to see it :S
Wouldn't be surprised if he was helping labs with their first LTT GPU review
Or he went on vacation
currently 00:20 here, clear black sky, and can see a very very bright and clear full moon, with a very bright venus just to the right of it
Or-cue Matt pat impression- incredibly less likely we have a try guys level controversy with lmg.. which is just a theory a crackpot theory.
i have a question
i wanna do like a channel like #1019713714968088586 on my own server, but idk how to do it in the style like here, anyone knows how?
Afaik to use them your server has to be public
Now Luke and Linus will be with me forever 😈
ah damn thats kinda sad
get them to sign it
You could however make a channel where people can only make threads
i liked the embed design tho
Yeah
You're right! LTX here we come
To make sure the signatures don't rub off
Can I have help testing a discord bot I just made
You sir are a god send I plan on doing this.
Rude lol
not at all rude
you can read!!
It's like danor comes in every day asking for free labour to set up his discord
yep
bro this computer is actually so sick
Lmg staff 🤯
Sunday, recovery day. All of the parts of my body hurt.
what did you break
Nothing specifically, but I picked up this couch set, hauled it back to mine, and put it inside.
What should idle temps be for a 5800x
I’m using a master liquid 240 lite from cooler master
zen can idly quite high. my cpu is idling at 60 atm
wait...no it isn't. I'm still running sniper elite 5 in the background
I’m also using hwinfo64 to monitor temps, which cpu temp reading should I be looking at
There’s the cpu then the die temp
Anyone wanna tell my why logistics thought with was the best way to ship my package to Vancouver?
because it operates a routing algorithm based on speed, cost, availability, storage space, staff availability, etc.
Yea just seems a bit counterintuitive to go halfway across Canada then go the full way back
But yea I get it because Toronto would have a high volume of parcels
That get shipped to Vancouver
it does, but there are reasons. Obviously this is nonsensical for one package, but it is about the totality of packages
Yea makes sense, don’t want to send like 1/4 of a planes capacity with parcels cause that would be considered a loss, yea in the grand scheme it makes sense
My 5800x is around 60ish idle
I think there might be something wrong, it immediately goes to 90 under 100% load
Like in an instant
what cooler you got?
Yeah that sounds like something is extremely wrong lol
Master liquid 240l
hmm... can you open up MSI afterburner to see what your CPU power draw is? It could just be boosting insanely high but something could also be wrong
I did see the screws that held the pump on the cpu were kinda loose, I tightened them down
that will probably help
I’m gonna take it off just to make sure the thermal paste is being spread out
You guys remember newgrounds?
does anyone know anything about smart watches here?
im trying to find a smart watch for my mother and im not sure what the difference is between the bluetooth version of galaxy watch and the LTE version, can i still use bluetooth with the LTE version?
Probably
so you're not sure.. yeah i've never been a fan of smart watches but my mother was, she was looking at smart watches for a while and so i wanted to get one for her but she is only interested in the bluetooth aspect, so im just not sure that i can use bluetooth with LTE or not
I’m 90% sure all smart watches will have blue tooth connectivity
yes you can
ok its just weird that the bluetooth versions are more expensive for some reason on amazon
oh alright 👍
That is odd
thats what i needed
yeah look it up, its werid
especially for the last gen of samsung watch 4's
Maybe it’s due to phone company wanting to make it cheeper upfront cost
could be, honestly dunno, i just didn't wanted to the watch to be locked behind a service plan of sort
Yeah I think your better off without lte unless you don’t plan on having a phone all the time
i know but i guess it doesn't matter what version you get both have bluetooth
Hybrid smart watches are cool to if you don’t know about those. It’s like a regular watch with some smart bits added in.
yeah, for probably for me, but its a gift
thanks though, ill look it up, i gotta go back working on my calc stuff
Kk good luck with the gift for your mom I’m sure she’ll love it
yes hopefully 
i am very sad i missed out of 5700x for 200 cad
Can we all just agree that Jake getting blasted in the face with purple rain was well worth watching Alex build that poorly-conceived contraption?
re applied thermal paste and changed fan settings around, still goes to 90c instantly under full load
okay, how much power is the CPU drawing?
go to offtopic
they named a rank after me
Hola
Hows everyones day/night been
Just got off work
Pizzer time
I have a 8 foot desk, anyone have leg recommendations that isnt a alex drawer from ikea
In fact, nothing from Ikea please
gas lines from home depot
https://i.pinimg.com/originals/37/df/d3/37dfd3d2c29307731d53847a736a93c4.jpg
other than trying to fix aio issues, good
also miggy, i think i mightve figured it out
oh yeah? what are you thinkin is the issue?
so the mounting brackets are keyed, i dont think its making full contact with the cpu
its making contact but that might be doing it
ohhh yeah that could very well do it
but when i took the pump off it was fine?
full squish of thermal paste?
yeah
oh yeah, probably not that
if it's squishing the thermal paste good and even it's almost certainly not a mounting pressure issue, so I'd probably put it on the AIO either being clogged/the pump not working properly
wish it has a pressure guage somewhere
i mean the radiator is warm so it must be doing something
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9U_5aGf0G9Q&t=1541s&ab_channel=GregSalazar
it could be something like what is shown here
AIO was slightly clogged and caused overheating issues
My friend found a pretty niche use case for integrated graphics
Which is wallpaper engine, instead of your main card rendering the wallpaper and consuming a lot of power and increasing temp, if your integrated does it there's a lot less power being drawn/temprature increase
On PPC macs there was a code you could put in the boot terminal to set the screen saver as the wallpaper.
Was fun
my ssd came so now im installing win 11 onto a flash drive and wiping all of my drives
Does anyone here work for Canada Computers? How does a "Reserve for store pickup" purchase work? Does it mean that there is product being moved or more being shipped?
I got a m.2 so im wiping my sata drives
Store pickup means you’re collecting the item at the store, either inside or curbside.
I've bought from Canada Computers using that system. It was introduced during the pandemic, but it's an idea that's been around with computer stores for decades.... they'll set aside inventory for you and you pick it up
Mhm
To be clear, that means they already have it
That's good to know
#tech-chat-1 answer someone smart please
I’m too stupid. 🤷♂️
ok man
2 people responded to you but still crickets
One more thing about Canada Computers, does open box have the same manufacturers warranty or is it a store warranty? Can it be returned and refunded? I've never bought anything from them.
i wanna see a Size Comparison of the 6900XT vs the 4090 now
😊
4090 size is average ;-;
Nice
yup my ssd also came with a bible verse 
good soup
i'm finally getting an SSD, Soon. hopefully
wait.. you're using a hdd?
always have
What ssd did you get? Hahaha
I also use hdd cuz i picked my pc from trash
wd blue something something cheap 1tb
How much was it
Also does it have dram?
my parents and i have to talk and choose between a CX2 or an MX500 when we can
idc if it has dram or not
it was 50 bucks and im getting a 1tb gen 4 anyways
My pc cost 3 times that ssd
look at how bare that SSD is.

yeah idc
theres just like two chips on it.
You almost could’ve gotten a brand new 1 rn mp33 btw
the other side is filled
I’m getting pretty close to having enough money to get a new power supply
Or just keep saving for a gpu
i wanna get a 1tb SSD for games aswell but its 100 bucks at best.
1 tb mp33 is 60 bucks brand new
And it performs great
My plan is to get a 256gb ssd to boot windows and some essential softwares and 2 tb hdd for games and stuff like educational videos
i'm sick of Hard Drives honestly they are already dead.
its all up to you but the HDD is just Obsolete
Me poor ;-;
Also hdd is actually trash cuz my current pc takes 50 seconds minimum to boot
i'm stuck with SATA II Hdds at 80MB/s max. its like 2 minutes to get into my fuckin windows
|| never gonna give you up never gonna let you down||
Right now i have western digital 5400 rpm hdd idk much second hand
I regret my choices
WD Scorpio Blue, it seems to be a 2010 model but they are made in 2012
Jesus fuck nvme is fast it installed windows 11 in 40 seconds
That’s not even gen 4 
hahah. yeah i guess so.
Yeah I’ve never used nvme only Sata
hmm. should i get a 250GB MX500 for 48 or 256GB CX2 for 35.
Nvme gen 3 is that old?
Gen 4 has no benefits for gaming. so its still good
in novmeber 2010
ooh i didn't read that right. oof.
but yes i don't think many systems had NVME Back then
Jesus fuck windows wants me to buy everything it’s asked me to buy gamepass and office 365 2 times
1984
especially not Mid range Business laptops
Yeah I was about to say my top of the line asus board from 2010 didn’t have it
at least it's free
thats why i just use methods to get rid of the bloat and Watermarks.
download shut up 10
client.login(process.env.TOKEN);
How do I get this code to read the token from config.json
except it wasnt free lol
also im back on my ssd
I technically paid for it because I built our back yard for a year working 7 an hour to get it
took me 6 months to get 400 bucks for a new pc
asrock b550m pro4
beat me to it
should i return my 5800x and buy 5900x hmm
i just got the 5800x but havent put in it in the PC yet, still has amazon return 30 days thing
hii
Can i dryclean my mousepad?
I will not confirm that I posted on a wrong chat
lol
or the steel legend
using a 240w laptop with a 65w brick is like using a laptop from the early 2000s
excuse me but i was wondering if the 1000$ budget pc vid would be a good starting point for me and if so, would those components fit well within a corsair 4000d airflow (i just like this case alot more than the one recommended in the vid). just found about the channel just now and joined but with so much info I feel rather lost lol
and hi everyone XD
Does anyone know if the Intel NUC X15 laptops have any PWM? Is there a website tests the PWM on laptops?
yo
That seems high, it's entry level even for it's time
Worthless
i3 🤮
yeah
And 1050 🤮
only buy it if your desperate
its still better then a mobile i3
And the gtx 1050 is a LOW end card
That's like saying it's better than your grandmas dinosaur PC
it is though
oof
Probably gonna be going up to the i9 13900k soonish
bruh
Hopefully that doesn't give bottlenecks lol
if it does
in 2 years
More like 2 months
I'm helping develop a new declarative parallel programming language and the REPL is VERY cpu intensive currently
is a dual core i7 allowed to be an i7 though?
It brings anything that isn't a thread ripper to its knees
oh
Probably bc its meant to be run on supercomputers
lol
my a9 9425 is a bottleneck
cant even find one
Yes you can. Ebay is full of last gen gpus
2070-3060 range is a great value rn
Then save it
If you can't afford a used 2070 you can't afford a gaming PC
That shit is like $200
Anything below that mark isn't worth it
Actually I'm seeing ebay listings below $200 for an rtx 2070
Don't buy new buy used if your budget is that low
"Entry level" hardware is never worth it
You are better off buying used last gen hardware that was actually good when it came out
Linus says this all the time^
I got my rtx 3080 for $150
the cheapest 2070 i found is $300
My case was almost the same cost of my gpu LMAO
yeah
I found plenty around the $200 mark
in the US?
I dont live in the US so im less fortunate
As long as it was taken care of by its previous owner you will be fine with a used card
a 6600 xt is cheaper then a used 2070
Oh yea true
That's probably a better value
No DLSS though
So eh depends on how much you care about raytracing
6600 xt is definitely a better choice over a 2070 for rasterized graphics performance
2070 would still win in raytracing though simply because of DLSS
is a 2080ti worth it?
Price?
I wouldn't pay over $500 for one
They typically sell in the $400-$500 range since the crypto crash
Although at that point you may want to get a 3070 or something
well they're around $400
Yea this seems reasonable
If you wanna go up to $500 though then you could grab a 3070 which is a bit better
can anyone help me in tech support
it doesn't make it not a low end card though
Anyone who can't afford better than an i3 from 4 years ago just needs to save up for a bit longer imo
just get more money!
Exactly lol
is pc400 the same as ddr400?
No
thnx
PC400
Looks like ram to me
The ram is an addon
thanks
"Eww Sockets"- Apple
I'm thankful for Apple's love for soldering because it taught me how to microsolder
only good part of apple will be the Death of the company
Nah their Rosetta Stone framework is pretty impressive
Apple does good things sometimes
sometimes
isnt that just Virtualization?
Yes but it's speed is impressive
It's pretty close to native x86 speeds
In the past if you run an x86 vm on an arm processor it'll have garbage performance
yeah Virtualization does have those good speeds now. its nothing new really.
What virtualization software are you using then?
yeah well ARM has Historically been Way less performant than x86, now Apple has taken modern Fab capacity and put decent ideas into their chips its gotten Comparable.
Wait I just realized I'm using a very outdated version of virtualbox
Maybe that's my issue
But I can't update bc of lack of vagrant support reeeeee
Oh well we are converting to docker anyway
what version?
5.x forgot the exact number
It's the last version before virtualbox 6
Vagrant 32 bit support is lost in virtualbox 6
The framework we run in vms for work is 32 bit so I can't update
But we are moving over to docker anyway
..... Yeah I mean, this is sort of true, but it's very cherry picking
........ Translation is not "just" virtualisation
hi
How are you
sick
Hi
cold not great thing
absolutely
wrong channel
hey hi
but thanks
is it fine for 1440p is should i stick to 1080p
it will do 1440p quite well. It is my go-to recommendation for BFYB midrange gaming right now
would a 5600x be a good cpu for it?
yep, perfect. That or a 12400, if you want intel
any recommendations
Just need a beast gaming laptop which will last me 5 years
yes, but so what? 13th gen low/mid end isn't out, and neither is zen4
It works perfectly with the 6650XT, and the system as a whole will age together well.
no, certainly not for 65 euro
5700x will be far better at multitasking and mixed workloads, but if it's primarily gaming by itself, 5600 is ideal
A gaming pc
Why - 5 years is a looooooooooong time for a gaming laptop
my dad wont allow apc thats the problem
But why?
bcz then i will be 18 lol
i saved up 1.5k$ and my dad says no buying a laptop again and again
so after am 18 will buy another
I'm 40, I've had so many damn laptops 😄
and ram?
3200 or 3600 and cl?
noice wanna recommend me agood one under 1500$
3600 cl18 or cl16 if you're feeling baller. 16gb base, 32gb if you want to do more stuff
gaming one ofc cuz i gonna 3d design as well
My oled XPS13 will 100% not do what you want to do with a laptop 🙂
is there really any games that require over 16 gb
No, which is why 16gb is fine for a gaming PC, but 32gb is better if you're doing lots of stuff at the same time .
a bit of graphic designign
if u video edit as well
16 should be enough
Also you can trivially get more ram later. like I could order ram right now and have it tomorrow
it makes SFA difference, but yeah. Also dual means you have slots for 32 later if you want.
Translate x86 to ARM Without a form of Virtualisation. i'll wait
I have 4x8gb sticks because of the RGBees
fuck rgb
based
Can you READ?
are you saying Rosetta is a Recompiler?
hello
hi
yay, 55 days till my hard drive has been powered on for two years.

Ok so amd is the company, ryzen is the name of the cpu and radeon is the name of the gpu
Aight I got my red team knowledge correct now
AMD is corporation and CPU department makes CPU and consumer parts called Ryzen
AMD is corporation and GPU department makes GPU and consumer parts are Radeon
Huh
AMD Makes Ryzen and ATI Makes Radeon, just that ATI was rebranded when AMD bought them out.
I though ryzen was the company that made ryzen cpu's, radeon was the company that made radeon gpu's and amd just made threadrippers
ATi is dead for 15 years already
It makes more sense now
no. ATI is AMD's GPU Department.
ATI like brand is dead for 15 years
and company
and most of the original dev team is long time left
the name is dead yes but they Rebranded once AMD Bought them out and then Rebranded as AMD.
ATI Technologies still exist
https://www.amd.com/en/corporate/locations if you want
when AMD bought Xilinx?
- oh
yeah, ATI is still alive but just under the name of AMD. Crossfire was made before AMD Bought them out and theres then two names
RTX 2080Ti and 5900x with 32GB RAM and a Samsung 980 Pro 1TB, even 1/4 preview res lags like crazy in premiere pro. The only solutions being pre-render or create proxies but is there any other solutions to this?
CPU spikes to 100% even when GPU accel is enabled. GPU is barely used (5-7%) when scrubbing through the timeline
and it's taking 12 minutes to render the preview -.-
home office = no gpu 😂
gaming = gpu
Well excel can get pretty bloated
.... I too, like to speak as if it was more than a decade ago, despite all evidence to the contrary
I have seen spreadsheets that will bring almost any machine to its knees. I mean, admittedly at that point you're doing it wrong, but many people do.
Id say about 350-400 euro
Although best bet is to just accept offers and hope someone bids in a price range you accept
Win 11 or win 10 for gaming?
doesn't matter
What would you recommend
https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/sF8TwP I’m thinking about getting a pc, thoughts?
no parts in it
It’s very power efficient
Requires 0 cooling even
i cant open my laptop i took all screws out
Did you check under the rubber pads?
i just moved n my new house with fiber internet and man my pc is oving the new speeds
just flying ascross the web ow days i feel bougie
i opened it now
but how do i clean the fans now it’s open
Lick the dust
You'll get super powers
does anybody have a tip for a dude with a laggy ass pc?
Mornin
Specs?
comin' right up
And any budget for upgrades?
sadly no
how can i see my specs?
im pretty new to this
intel(r) Core(TM( i5-8600K CPU @3.60Hz
task manager shows
just click the performance tab
or if ur on win10/below u can right click start and click system but that doesn't show gpu
okay. imma try
Where's the latest WAN show?
Hello
Hey
@night sun no clue, guess we just watch on YT
It's on YouTube if you want the vod
cant believe i reinstalled teamspeak
Am I stupid why is mini itx expensive
you gotta make parts smaller
and try to fit stuff on a small thing ig thats why thinking of it
they are best overclocking boards
and it's not popular
Would the next smallest just be micro ATX then
Don't plan on using the pcie slot just has to be small lol
It's r/notthronion and my province wants teachers to make kids brush their teeth at school rather than at home
nope
Most schools in our province have lead still in the water too
Almost none have filters
hello
Ltt
Unless your school's pipes have been changed since 1970, chances are yours are filled with more lead than ours
As well as homes
Ours are low for USA standards however for Canada it's high and unsafe
So, who can we talk about about the recent change of tech-support channel to use threads only? Because the people providing the answers would like the old public channel back. Threads.. sort of works for long explanations and when the channel is crowded so it's easier to do multiple topics at once. But the old single public channel had its benefits as well. https://discord.com/channels/375436620578684930/1028091372638568458 Has some discussion about it.
I think, both options would be great. People ask questions on public channel first, then someone who's interested in talking about it can either open a thread, or the askee can open a thread if necessary. Keep the public channel for thread delegation and simple Q&A.
Or just.. to have a common channel to talk random bs in when nobody is asking tech support questions.
There's a bit of a community of nerds around the tech-support, and now we don't have a common channel anymore.

Have anyone tried, loosing FPS after upgrading to higher end hardware?
Going from a I9 9900K to a R9 5950x, and losing up to 60% FPS in games, that even is GPU based?
what game?
all games
had you updated bios?
Newest
what temps of cpu?
68 under load?
yup, Forza Horizon 5 load
windows 10 or 11?
11
latest?
Yup, crappy as it is
I only just realized last night that LTT uploads every day from Saturday to Thursday
Around 24 videos a week
On all their channels ofc
you can try to switch to 10, because I don't see problem with hardware
Lots of expensive employees ...
you can get 10 for free and legally
Trust me, both of us have a education on level with Jakes, we've liturelly tried everything we can
I would remove loop and try troubleshoot everything again
we've done
RMA it to AMD than
contact AMD first and send all information about PC and stress test to them
looks like tech-support is spilling over to here now
yeah its alot of vids but when you employ 80 people just for a yt channel its not that hard
They should have direct died on the chiller video
they wanted, but most likely it would been pointless
It's not pointless on zen4
yeah
maybe, it still fine even at 95
Yea but if ur using a chiller it seems kinda crippling to keep the ihs on
I guess frost will probably kill the chip even faster on chilled direct die tho
Also the chiller was apparently garbage lmao
it was joke video, if you hadn't gotit
I can't wait to get my meal prep done today
yea
lol so we need to build a pc with 3 delta thd2048ht in the front and one for exhaust if we can find a case that can fit them
or would airflow still be lacking


i think they could have gone further
I just got banned from my main server for “raiding”, bruh I was literally just asking why they took away like half our privileges
F
Eh that server was going to shit anyways
That's so funny, this kid I use to know back in highschool also used the name biggiecheese for a lot of his names online
Haha
classic
discord should have E2E encryption
but if they do then they wont be able to sell your data 
which means no discord
truly stuck between a rock and a hard place
then discord will not stay afloat
im pretty sure discord is either losing money or breaking even right now
in essence, discord is basically just a free cloud file hosting platform which is expensive as balls to run
Damn
There is no good solution
Self-host your chat servers and the host has just as much personal data as discord does
Let discord handle it and they are not afraid to say they sell ur shit
that ping tho
I got a free pc today
Has some kind of graphics card, haven’t opened it yet but it’s got w core 2 quad sticker on the front so that’s cool
-9k ping?
I like how google signins are broken everywhere now

can someone please explain microsoft’s logic behind making an Intel Display driver an optional update that is hidden in advanced options
cross continental uber eats
I’ve always treated that as a beta or release-candidate area. It even basically says to not install anything from there unless you are currently experiencing an issue with the device.
is 300 good for a 2080 ti?
Bruh thats cheap compared to what i bought mine for
:)
300 for a 2080ti would be a good buy
i kept my 1070 from 2018 until a bit more than a month ago when i bought a 6900xt
you can barely find a 3070 for 500. a 300USD 2080ti is good
3070 is 400$ cad here
To 500$ cad
on ebay or an equivalent?

ye I was msotly saying new.
I see 10 différént ones
Yeah
do good gaming chairs generally have a full metal construction or they use wood too
I dont know many modern chairs with wheels that use wood.
typically plastic and metal
They also are questionable durability wise
i use a car chair
get a NICE office chair, you will more chair for the same money, or the same chair for less money
way comfortable and free
Yes, but generally they are not marketed and overpriced like gaming chairs.
gaming chairs are built like car seats.
so for accidents
so Id imagine they are a great chair for rolling down a hill with
gaming chairs are usually designed around a rally bucket seat, but done badly... like a baby seat in a car
yes, but hospitalization
huh? baby seats are very safe
i meant the design is like a baby seat, not that baby seats are bad or unsafe 😄
gaming chairs are shitty adult versions of baby seats, which themselves are rally seats
that makes no sense whatsoever
Gaming chairs are just money grabs and you shouldn't buy them.
whats up everyone, i just finished cutting open my PC, tearing out its lungs, rubbing grey robot vomit all over its heart, putting its lungs back in, and stitching it back up
baby (class 0, 1 or 2) seats, are 5 point harness bucket seats... which are designed basically the same as a rally seat... and gaming chairs are also designed after the same rally seats, but the gaming chairs, are badly done versions
I can see what you're trying to do? But.. no. Actual rally seats are quite different, and a racing seat is designed around limiting movement, whilst a baby seat is designed around cushioning impact.
rally seats core design principal is impact resistance and cushioning, as well as minimising how much the driver can move around, they are primarily a safety device
has anyone else seen barbarian yet?
You know I've had an idea
have you ever seen an actual rally car? or sat in a racing seat?
Buy a scrap rolls royce
Take the seat out
Now THATS a gaming chair
Fun fact about their seats
yes, there is a race track that do track days, about 3 miles from my house, and its quite cheap to use their cars they have for use at the track
They actually make the seats out of bull leather rather than cow leather because when cows get pregnant, there's stretch marks
For rolls royce
https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/49gmRv so i want a pc and i made this list and i dont know much about pcs so when my friends give feedback idk how much of it is true, so i want to know if its good for its price (it is in Au) and / or if it has any compatibility problems
so, cushioning.... not so much. It's a retention device. Also in a rally car there's a roll cage. It's a completely different paradigm to a passenger car.
been there quite a few times, driven an old 206 rally car, driven the focus rally car, driven a mclaren 570 there too
the world has discovered that the USD is only worth something because the USA says it is
So basically inflation
they are made like car seats which are not comfortable
grew 10 cents USD in one night
hax
So all your money now has 90 percent of the value it had a week ago
check usd/jpy
best short if you got in 2 months ago
30%+
forex brokers can give insane leverage too, like 40x
Wow
bro I make aud ?
It's strange to think the right before I was born, 1 quid was equal to 2 dollars
if you kept all your money in the bank you'll be down 10% due to inflation this year alone
GBP was historically quite strong, then we had a string of terrible governments that made it worth fuck all
or on hand
Yeah lol
All a bunch of clowns
tax the rich isn't good for economy
Can't trust truss
rong
hows that going for you
that was the policy that caused it to drop like 10%
Brexit == TAKE BRITAIN BACK to the stone age, by cutting us off from the rest of the planet, and completely ruining the economy, only taxing the poor and middle earners, and giving tax breaks to all your rich friends

brexit was a stupid idea... and billionares should be culled, and their money given to the rest of society 🙂

you guys are good on natural gas though ur gov is the problem with creating fear
you know that america used to tax rich people far far more, right?
reagan ruined everything for everyone
they don't pay tax
in Australia they Just use cayman islands
So then why does it make a difference?
the thing is, we have a lot of natural gas and a lot of oil, BUT.. we sold it to the highest bidder, and bought the stuff we actually use from russia... because it made sense to do that... and now.... we are having to pay that same high price that we were making other people pay... ourselves... so... yes, we do have a lot of oil and gas reserves... but... using them is very expensive because the government is counting on that money to be there to run the country
oh yeah I've been there for three months already!
yup he is your new father that in itself is a full time job
check the website, that's public info on your storage injections daily
first time in decades its been like that
I'm sure there's tons of ways to commit tax evasion
90% EU storage
Cash in hand
either it's gonna be -40c this winter or your government created fear
That doesn't work well at scale
This winter the poor won't be able to afford to heat their homes in the UK
be self employed, work only in cash or "cash"... and just never pay tax... and if you are really committed... claim job seekers allowance at the same time, so your national insurance is covered too...
step one become rich step two hire lawyers to find loop holes step 3 less taxes
because of the trash free market
i know more people than i can count... who have done that for 40 years and been fine
I'm gonna do this
Wow
I took a minute just to read that in disbelief
you can't do that
they still track spending if you are using a bank
yes, you can. its not even hard.. literally all builders do it
Then don't use a bank.
a lot of contractors in IT do it
else you are considered to have got all that money fraudulently
and no, they dont monitor your bank account at all
here banks are all monitored by CRA
Then don't use the bank right?
so, my bank, in the UK, is monitored by some canadian government agency?
if they see you got money its tax evasion where they take everything or you go to court
they look at your taxes filed
Then don't let them see you got money.
I said here, as in canada
didnt know my UK based bank, where i, a UK citizen, working in the UK, was monitored by a government agency, from canada
my country
^^ no you didnt
_ _ @fossil frost
All right let's not start an argument on tax evasion in different countries
ah, there you did
ur blind
Tax evasion is cool but arguing about it is not cool
still... banks are not monitored in the uk, and arent in most of the world
yeah the eu has privacy regulations and free markets worse than anywhere else
most crime in general isnt monitored in most of the world, and a lot of crime is completely ignored by the police
"I committed tax evasion in 1995"
as seen with your commodity sector
so... yeah, not paying a bit of tax, isnt going to concern many people at all in the uk
They wanted to buy uniper to make it state owned which isn't allowed in the usa
For germany
UK isnt in the EU
BREXIT MEANS BREXIT (it also means that we made a poor decision, because we were lied to, and continued to believe that lie even after the person who lied to us, admitted it)
UK has the crackhead boris johnson so yeah I don't follow them
- liz truss
I follow the EU news though
boris johnson hasnt been prime minister for a few months now
I mean she's objectively worse, so eh
oh yeah the queen met the new person and died after
true
we have liz truss, who is more concerned with getting a good instagram post
Thought boris was still in government
boris is still in government, hes still an MP... just not PM or part of the "cabinet"
I see
hes still a fucking moron too
Boris left
the guy legit looks like a crackhead
hes a womanising lying drug taking alcohol abusing stain on this country... to make that more accurate
hes funny though
or at least the videos I've seen
He should do stand up comedy
yeah
hes not. not even a little bit. hes a fat horse and needs to leave this planet, nevermind t he country
elon musk is the poster child for why all billionaires should be culled
he sold a fuck ton of his tesla stock... hes rich
Got me a new aio cooler
he bought twitter
he also used a lot of that money, to buy stocks in twitter, which he didnt declare... then announced he was going to buy twitter and a vastly inflated price, which caused the price to jump, and he then sold those twitter stocks... making himself a shit load of money... then.... got a bunch of investors on board, to use THEIR money to buy twitter... not his own money
so while he is the face of the purchase... its not his money
I guess it's clever in a way
hes bipolar
hes a sociopath
hes a sociopath in the same way that john wayne gacey was a sociopath
How does twitter even make money
would not surprise me if it came out that elon has personally killed people
I think he has actually
he is from a rich family in africa and was bullied
rather than indirectly killing people (the slaves he owns/owned in his dads mine)
a rich family that owned slaves that worked in the families mine...
Petrol >>>
so yeah.. hes a murderer, just uses different tools than other murderers use
I'd rather petrol and public transport than private evs
I'd rather a bmw M5 then a model s
with the amount of waste created through evs they are not green
Ultimate driving machine ™️ Vs ultimate dystopian machin
you want to own a car with the highest maintenance cost
we need high speed trains everywhere and metro underground with buses
I want to own the ultimate performance machine
then no one will drive a car
Plus having to swap a battery every couple of years isn't exactly low maintenance
BMWs rarely have any issues at all. when you buy the European models... if you buy the American models, you are buying the car in name only
every 15+ year is very high
my ex-wife just sold her BMW M1, that was 14 years old, never had an issue other than having to change the tyres... has 150k on the clock, still sounds as good and drives as good as day 1... and the only reason she traded it in, is because shes now my ex-wife, and she no longer has use of my much larger car for when she goes away with the kids
my uncle has a 20 year old M5, other than looking boxy... it has no issues
V10 m5?
Well they weren't known for being reliable here
But it's the ultimate driving machine
no idea... im not one of those people who rub themselves over the different variations of BMW's, i couldn't care less. i just know that the ones i have experience with, are bulletproof
Your family has nice taste
Ok
yeah but the winter apparently can mess with the batteries
i have a ford mondeo (top spec, because i like my extras) because its the only saloon car i can find, that has a proper boot door and will fit my road bike in the back of the car, so i can pack the car the day before triathlons and just get in the car and leave in the morning
Plus evs are garbage anyways
tesla/other evs can heat and cool batteries to prolong the over all health
lol
can a tesla heat a battery when its -20c outside for 6 months?
I’m back in the Amazon return store
there's a reason I only see teslas outside during the summer here
Should I buy this totally legit copy of Makio 67?
64?
how much is it
-80 to +60 °C
-20C outside for 6 months isn't the case everywhere in the world 😉
how do you record videos off of netflix without a capture card
you ask google about piracy, not here
Tesla's are always garbage to drive no matter where you are in the world however
Like I know you can intercept the feed to your monitor and record it that way but is there a way to do it without buying a capture card?
u can download a video directly from netflix's servers
Or electric cars in general
Nice
There's stuff on github for it
id pass and buy the one that has a trackpad also if you want one of those wireless keyboards
Yee
you can get a cheap mechanical keyboard off aliexpress
Is this one of those MagSafe batteries from anker?

mushroom kindgom here we cmoe
Random question if you could choose would you go founders Edition or tuf?
tuf
Just wondering why?
better cooling most the time
you look at your monitors not your pc
Ummm about that
pfffffffffff
Neverrrrrr
What if I put my monitor in my pc case
i just won an intel twitchcon mousepad!
Congrats
could've won a 13th gen i5 but oh well
thanks! it looks sick
The i5 would probably draw too much current anyways lol
fair point lmao
Intel be like: yea tve twp is 95w also the chip in cinebench power draw 184 watts
people complaining about 65w and 95 while my 5950x is sat here drawing 248w PPT
Lmao F
My 8086k can probably suck a lot of power with some overclocking
Base clock is 4ghz lol
Best aio orientation?
just make sure no part of the pump is the highest point of the loop
top
Aio in top if you cant do that put it in the front as long as the highest poimt ISNT the block
What block
the part that bolts to the cpu
Ohhh
As in where ur cpu is
My aio has the pump in the radiator
I think I finally planned a decent pc build, with no errors as I can tell.
now I gotta save up for the stuff
Dosent matter if it gets stuck with the cpu ur lifespan is short
Thank you kind sir
I’ll be back with an update when it’s put together
Now. Push or pull
I wont even tell at this point
Bruh
Srry but i felt ignored
for performance, it makes no difference, but pull is usually preferrable, because it makes it easier to clean the radiator
No I seen it, thank you for the help
Dosent matter the worst will be cleaning
I have rgb fans if that makes a difference
No
I figured pull would be the choice so I can see the lights better
Not at all
Do it for the fps
https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/49gmRv so i want a pc and i made this list and i dont know much about pcs so when my friends give feedback idk how much of it is true, so i want to know if its good for its price (it is in Au) and / or if it has any compatibility problems
i use push-pull but only because it lets me maintain a higher static pressure and better airflow at a lower RPM, through the tightly packed radiator
and?
and you already got your answer and why repost
in order to unnecessarily clog up discord channels
At the expense of cost and space, but hey, you can't have everything 🙂
what answer
my computer/office is in the corner of the bedroom, and sometimes i have to work while my GF is in bed... quietness is my main goal 🙂
any games that is great for short sessions?
what the shit. My wife is in bed in the bedroom. My son is in bed in his bedroom, and I am in my office.
i just realized when i was young, i had no money for high end hardware, now i have money for hardware i dont have time to play anymore
fuck lol
hahaha, it's a problem for the ages.
my office is the corner of the bedroom... as in, they are the same room... :)... until i get round to getting the extension built on the house, im stuck with having to run extra fans to be extra quiet sometimes
watching netflix on a 3080ti is stupid
i should be playing games slaying monsters, now i just lie in my chair watching movies and shit, lol
did not need high end hardware for that......
I mean, I run 9 fans in mine and it's super quiet, but that's because the noise floor here is ridiculous.
i need to find games that can fit into my fragmented time
I have completed sniper elite 5 like... 3 times?
and I do forza horizon 5
the noise floor here is ridiculous, but im gonna guess its the other ridiculous.. its so incredibly quiet here (i live on a hill on the back of a golf course... there is fuck all here to make noise)
prior to that I completed far cry 5 .. many times
i bought god of war on day 1, still have not finished the game, lol
and prior to that satisfactory
i restarted it like 10 times already because i waited too long and forgot what was it about and i restarted the whole game........
have to completed it both ways?
ie. do what you are told when you get off the bus?
speaking of far cry.....i dont think ive played that series and 6 looks awesome
best way to complete it is to not cuff joseph
is the story related at all or os it stand alone
BOOM, credits.
all stand alone. Honestly 5 was a better game.
5 is the best of the series
ooo
FC5 has new game+ and super difficulty, which is awesome.
6 is bigger... 5 is better
yeah this is another thing, i keep buying games that i am not even playing right away, ive wasted a lot of money this way.......
i should buy them when i actually play it, damn it
I do love it in sniper elite when I make a snap shot on a moving target and it goes into bullet time, because I lined it up perfectly
my son bought BF2042 on my PC accidentally (he was 4)
this is why i dont let myself buy new games if im in the middle of playing a game, or, if i already have a game i havnt started yet. forces me to think if i actually want to play that new game... and, forces me to play the games i buy
my stupidity is reaching peak levels
you are not alone, this is happening to society in general
just like my room temperature when literally doing anything
I mean it was deliberate, but he didn't know what it meant 🙂
how lol wtf
touch screen laptop
If I did that I would be in a grave /s
I mean at least it was on sale
he bought a $169 pack of stuff in my wifes mobile game 😮 - that one we got refunded
Ok I would definitely be in a grave for that one
i made sure everything requires fingerprint to purchase on all my mobile devices
yeah, but he can't help it, he doesn't have impulse control 🙂 it's on us
l
guessing he was grounded
Ok I would be burned at the stake for that one
same
ide get the look first
yeah my bank actually called me asking me if i purchased that because it looks sus af
haha, the way we do money is we rarely have more than about $500 in the spendings account so the loss is limited
i am pretty sure if they didnt call it it would have went thru, would be hard to refund lol
Is it because your limiting your loss or you spent all your money on a pc? 🤔
haha, no, the rest of the money is in other accounts.
haaa, my cousin is like that, buying all the badass bleeding edge hardware and have no money to buy games.......fucker pirate everything lol
including windows.....like come on bro
I spent all my money on a monitor
People spend money on windows
I buy all my games, I don't pay for windows 🙂
i mean technically you can use windows for free
I buy some pirate some
but its something you use for years, might as well just buy it
My laptop came with a license, but it's using a work key now anyway
-100
what's buying?
pirating for the win lfgggg
my friend pirated beamng
I'd rather give a microsoft employee 100$ than give microsoft 100$
trading them gold coins for the goodies, yarrrr......
i pirate games i know i wouldnt buy anyway but for indies i do pay for them
i pirate a lot, but if i bum into games i like i will go buy the game, i use it as a unlimited demo basically
