You are wasting your money

white radish
#

saving

#

cause once its on the drive i just cancel the sub

fossil frost
#

in fact, im pretty sure you are lying

uncut wagon
#

I agree with @fossil frost

white radish
#

which part?

fossil frost
#

because anybody smart enough to know how to do that properly... would also be smart enough to know its not worth doing

uncut wagon
#

Exactly

white radish
#

thats why im gonna do it

fossil frost
#

because you are an idiot?

white radish
#

no just special :3

uncut wagon
#

Dude your wasting so much time money and effort

#

Why would you even do it

fossil frost
#

yeah, you are lying

uncut wagon
#

Yep u probs are lying tbh

white radish
#

im doing it cause everything is either 24, 30 fps

#

i want butter

fossil frost
#

you arent doing it, you are lying

uncut wagon
#

Dude

#

You are lying

#

And anyways there is nothing wrong with 30fps

white radish
#

got the software to upscale and switch to 60 or even 120 fps

uncut wagon
#

Dude you can’t even see 120 fps

fossil frost
#

nobody cares anymore, you are lying, and we know you are lying

uncut wagon
#

Facts

white radish
#

i can feel the difference

uncut wagon
#

Bruh

white radish
#

idk where the perception of fps drops off but still aiming for 120

uncut wagon
#

You can feel the difference?

vapid smelt
#

I've never watched a video in 120fps

uncut wagon
#

Same

#

You can’t even see 120FPs

#

The human eye can’t process it

white radish
#

unless if you slowed it down

uncut wagon
#

You are annoying us all now

white radish
#

but still, pretty neat thing to have

uncut wagon
#

Just stop

vapid smelt
#

I can feel 120fps because I'm not sure about only watching

uncut wagon
#

How do you feel it lmao

golden talon
#

120 fps is way more perceptible than 60 fps

white radish
#

but still, is 10 tb good enough for a couple of shows? or do i need about 20tb?

golden talon
#

high fps is statistically shown to improve performance in gaming

uncut wagon
#

We ain’t talking bout gaming

vapid smelt
#

Panning the camera around ingame you can "feel" and know when your not hitting 120+fps

uncut wagon
#

We talking bout how u don’t need 120 fps to watch Netflix

golden talon
#

Nobody does

#

But it’s perceptible and nice to have

white radish
#

panning the cam in a video has similar stuff

uncut wagon
#

The human eye can’t even see 120FPS

white radish
#

but the motion blur never goes away

vapid smelt
white radish
#

how much can it see then?

golden talon
#

You can perceive 120 fps easily

#

VERY easily

uncut wagon
#

If you have refresh rate monitor 120 then yes

golden talon
#

just switching between 120 fps and 60 fps on my iphone is leagues of difference

white radish
#

got a 165

uncut wagon
#

I have a 244hz monitor

golden talon
#

then you would understand

#

even if you cannot physically SEE it, your brain perceived it as a smoother image

uncut wagon
#

Eh

#

But I cap all my games to 60

golden talon
#

Anecdotal

white radish
#

article says the eye can see flicker rate at up to 60-90

vapid smelt
golden talon
#

Statistics show that high fps is perceivable and preferred to content consumption, that’s all there is to it

white radish
#

i guess the more adrenaline the more fps

uncut wagon
#

I play flight sims for god sake

#

On ultra settings the Microsoft can’t get 244 fps

#

I cap it to 60

white radish
#

well of coure you cant on that game

uncut wagon
#

It’s a better experience

uncut wagon
golden talon
#

that’s just an issue you’ve got then

white radish
#

capping does reduce lag spikes, which is why i cap myself at 165

uncut wagon
#

I have no issue

golden talon
#

trying to say there’s no point to 120 fps in media is straight bullshit lol

vivid torrent
#

Oh no please not this argument

golden talon
#

if you prefer 60 fps then you’re statistically part of a small minority that does not prefer high refresh rates

#

nothing wrong with that

white radish
#

got a big tv and i can see the frames for each clip in family guy

#

which is why i need more fps

#

gotta agree with vert

golden talon
#

it still blows my mind that people are claiming that there’s no point to high refresh rate stuff

white radish
#

true

golden talon
#

reminds me of the old days of console gamers trying to say humans can’t see more than 24 fps

white radish
#

the human eye can see from 1-120 fps given a keen eye from 90-120, and on rare occasion for adrenaline rush cases up to 200

vivid torrent
#

I don’t think human engineers would be trying to upgrade technology that isn’t perceivable by humans

woeful minnow
#

Marketing.

white radish
#

some marketing gimmiks but others are pretty useful

woeful minnow
#

People buy stuff because ooh higher number

golden talon
#

marketing is useless without scientific results to back them

white radish
#

^

#

good thing i alway read the spec sheets

golden talon
#

And the people that do buy stuff like that need to focus on their IQ instead of refresh rate

white radish
#

by the time i got my monitor i burned my eyes cause the monitor was so bright

#

i look for response rate > refresh > color accuracy and sort by price in that order

#

everything is decently priced

woeful minnow
#

For me it’s colour accuracy > response rate > refresh

white radish
#

content creation?

woeful minnow
#

Nope

#

I just couldn’t care less about refresh rate

white radish
#

ah

#

pretty good then

woeful minnow
#

I see nothing wrong with 60hz for the games I play

#

Even 30

white radish
#

ye

#

i only notice it when it hits 24 fps

full fossil
#

I played console for a long time, 30 fps doesn't bother me

woeful minnow
#

Some games I play at 15 fps capped

white radish
#

i remember when i had a 30 hz cap on a laptop

#

pretty decent for only one game, then i retired from that game

woeful minnow
white radish
#

good balance

#

for some reason when i do hdr on my monitor obs just freezes on hdr until i move my mouse

#

now i just keep it on till i gotta record

molten drift
white radish
#

dark room, wanted to try monitor at 100 brightness, results: my room was decently lit and my eyes burned with happiness

#

didnt try it on hdr

#

dunno if it would make a difference

Again hyperbole.. if your eyes were burnt . You would be suing the company for an unsafe product.

#

One question, isnt WAN show the fridays?

#

if yes, why it wasnt streamed at the LTT channel? And why the VOD isnt there either? D:

#

idk, it felt weird, not falling asleep while hearing the wan show

scarlet timber
#

oh

#

thats funny... and sad

white radish
#

susprisingly why not have a blank laptop preloaded with google docs or word

scarlet timber
#

or log in with another user... but I mean, errors can happen

white radish
#

ye ig

scarlet timber
#

my WAN show watching routine is ruined now...

white radish
#

pull an old one and just listen to that

scarlet timber
#

no, because I hear them for sleep, and if I hear something I remember I am like "oh, I remember this" and my brain starts working trying to find out what comes next

terse lintel
#

also was it the new house address that leaked? or the old one? just curious tbh. if its the new one then that would make things even worse, although i guess he at least has (had?) some redundancy with the two houses so worse case they could maybe move back in to the old one???

WAN show is filmed on Friday night and they don't work weekends so I'd guess a Monday release?

now you can get back to playing siv III, at 20 FPS.

Unless Linus and Luke do it themselves I don't think anyone will do it on the weekend. IIRC only their management works weekends.

Kind of sad though as I like slowly absorbing the WAN show over the weekend but meh

Eh as a dev building a video rendering pipeline for like 500m uploads a day sounds tough

as a solution architect it sounds exciting 😄

also really the issues of scale mean that you split it all out and you'd have several layers and redunancies. The main issue is the law of large numbers mean that any possible problem WILL occur.

well, if it's only pretend, that's fine

misty scarab
#

its pretend so I can spraypaint the PC pink and put in 2 sli 3090s or 4 1080tis

#

they added 3 and 4 way sli in PCBS2

#

is a 3990x better than a 12900k for some workloads

rancid cedar
#

Yes, for sure

#

Anything that scales well across multiple cores will finish faster on a 3990X, e.g. 3D rendering. But as a desktop system you'd actually sit at and use, the 12900K will feel way faster

fluid ridge
#

huh

#

i was under the impression that more cores took precedence over core clock speeds

#

IE a 5995wx would be faster than a 12900K at everything

hearty spear
fluid ridge
#

is there a reason why certain applications are unable to fully utilize all cores?

hearty spear
#

And the number of apps actually capable of utilizing more than 16 threads at once is very very small

hearty spear
rancid cedar
#

Best analogy I know of is this: You can't get 9 women to give birth to a baby in one month

#

Some formulas and operations are sequential in nature. You have to do this first, then that second, then this other thing third.

rancid cedar
#

This is true of a ton of things on computers. Especially user interfaces. Which is why good single-thread performance on a CPU will make a computer feel more "snappy"

it performs a little slower (like a couple percent in many things) then a regular 5800x

So I was trying to get help from that server cuz my windows install is refusing to install and the person was being rude to me and I went to a mod about it and all I got was the mod being toxic as well

And blatantly refused to enforce the rules

I would rather get no help here than people being toxic to me when I ask for help

Well I already get no help from here so

# wispy marsh Why?

you want air to go in, and hot air to leave.
Blocking that is rarely good for a PC

wispy marsh
manic torrent
# wispy marsh Why?

It really depends what PC it is, how the airflow is set up, blah blah blah. Blocking off some holes in a case with a lot of airflow is usually nothing to care about

It literally won’t affect airflow to have more holes around your exhaust fan

No, no, i have holes inside the pc between the intake and exhaust sides

I got this virus / extension on my Chrome called “Ultra” … I probably downloaded something smh … Every time I try and remove it , it closes all tabs and comes back

are low blue light displays just gimmicks or are there some kind of tech behind it? i though this could be accomplished by manually turning down the blue on the RGB. you can even use flux or redshift on linux.

Why are there no phone chargers that both do slow and fast charge with the flick of a button?

Would be nice. In a rush? Use fast charge
Charge while sleeping? Use slow charge and save battery

stark meadow
#

i think some phones can do that in software

#

but might be wrong abt that

manic torrent
#

I've never seen it - however there are some software driven chargers that can change various things, and there are also a lot of man-in-the-middle devices that allow you to change and limit power.

#

yeah pretty sure its up to the charging IC in the phone itself that dictates the speed of charging in the moment

hah indeed! In Samsung battery settings you can turn fats charge off.

But it's a burried menu

why do you want 4k?

^^ that is what I would buy

given your requirements as stated

and get ignored, because I saw that video that said - maybe it's the best

What connector supports 4k at 240hz?

tired glade
#

HDMI 2, I think is minimum

vapid smelt
#

4090 only has 1.4a if I recall right

tired glade
#

2 is just 4k 60

#

minimum 2,1 or display 2

#

HDMI(2), 3x DisplayPort(3)

vapid smelt
#

Looks like it

tired glade
#

Supports 4K 120Hz HDR, 8K 60Hz

#

hope 4090 ti will have 2,0

#

2

#

at least in US, 4090 already 2k in some part of the world

#

kidney cost around 40k, so we not even close

#

ok, how much do you use right now?

#

that 4 tb will last for long

#

if you need that

#

at work, I burn 2-3tb a day with all medical data

#

if you have such work load, yea, that 1,5k doesn't look good

#

it's not good idea

#

windows only use about 80gb

#

can be low as 30

#

it will take like 10-15 sec now

if you bootloader not full of useles thing

I am on hdd and it take 10-15 sec

jump don't forget to enable dual boot

vapid smelt

Hi

lethal copper
#

Worst part of moving away from iPhone ecosystem is having a year old apple watch that already tanked in value

#

I currently use my old garmin instinct but I think I'll just try using an apple watch without an iPhone :/

cerulean saffron
#

Hibernated last night. Woke up to clean start today. Entire session gone. No idea why...

#

Windows can be absolute unpredictable garbage at times

lethal copper
#

Apple watch does not work with Android

#

Thats one of its main (and only) problems

#

But I would gain nothing

#

Connecting Apple watch to android literally gives you 0 things

#

It still won't sync notifications and share exercise data

#

I don't do either :/

#

My next watch in a few years will probably be a garmin

#

I like garmin watches

#

?

manic torrent
#

meanwhile, here's me, my watch has ... hands.

lethal copper
#

Maybe once fenix.. 8? Or forerunner 965 is out

#

No, garmin

#

Probably best smart watch brand I know

#

Extremely expensive but at least doesn't even need a phone

#

Yes!

lethal copper
#

But I have a bit of a trouble getting time on analogue and 12 hour fast

#

I mean, they look good

#

Nah I prefer darker colors

#

Honestly regret picking apple watch 8 over fenix 7

#

I mean, I certainly couldn't have predicted apple starting to dumb down devices in my country

#

And forcing me to upgrade like 1-2 years earlier than expected

#

Bit still, weeks of battery would be cool

#

What's the point? Doesn't work in my country

#

🤨

#

Of course I can

#

I am currently in the middle of a park on my unlimited LTE

manic torrent
lethal copper
#

It requires e-sim that also works with Apple

#

We still don't have widely accepted esims

#

...the thing that makes Apple watch lte work

#

An eSIM (embedded-SIM) is a form of programmable SIM card that is embedded directly into a device. Instead of an integrated circuit located on a removable universal integrated circuit card (UICC), typically made of PVC, an eSIM consists of software installed onto an eUICC chip permanently attached to a device.
Once an eSIM carrier profile has be...

Do you really want to learn c++ and java?

#

wow

manic torrent
lethal copper
#

I won't touch Java with a 10 foot stick and only learned c++ for Olympiads

manic torrent
#

I mean, I wouldn't want to do java or C++ as a primary permanent gig for sure.

lethal copper
#

I know Python for general use and C++ for competitive but right now js is growing on me

#

Oh and Lua, Lua is one of my favourites but rarely has a practical use

manic torrent
#

uhhh, do you mean javaSCRIPT

lethal copper
#

Java is absolutely not the mainstream language for websites

#

js is main and php with python are doing some things

manic torrent
#

or typescript, or whatever the fuck it's called now

manic torrent
lethal copper
manic torrent
#

well, nobody SHOULD use php anymore

#

yeah I know.

lethal copper
manic torrent
#

but js, python, databases, and an understanding of how networks work will let you do 99% of everything

lethal copper
#

Yes, I feel like php is language of existing projects but almost never new ones

#

I had no idea anyone seriously considered Java for web dev

#

I'm potentially a future web developer so currently learning JS and try not to forget python

manic torrent
lethal copper
#

Alright then, thanks for info!

manic torrent
#

the issue is that generally stuff that's written in java is absolute garbage, same issue as PHP

#

whenever I read most java or php it makes me want to self-terminate

#

but it is something I can never do

lethal copper
#

I'm becoming a web developer but my dream thing would probably be writing for something like baseALT or astra Linux or even just for Elbrus cpus, but I'm terrible at low level things

#

I already had a job in dev as a contractor

#

Yay first job at 15 mission accomplished

I have worked as a sysadmin and solution architect for 20 years...

lethal copper

That's how I managed to afford a server and a new phone

#

Don't forget css

#

Honestly HTML is basic, it's practically a canvas for CSS

#

You can learn 80% of html in 15 minutes, but I believe that after 1 year I only scratched the surface of css

#

HTML doesn't really matter - you need to understand the DOM, because it doesn't matter if it's in js or html, it's the same

#

#

Kermit is a file transfer thing

#

If I remember correctly

#

Seriously wtf I have CTR of 1-10% and have been shown in feed 300 times

#

Basic math, I should have received at least 1 view

#

Ghosts like my channel!

#

I know

#

It's hard.

#

I mean, the basic stuff is decent if you know other languages

#

And pointers aren't as hard as people say (usually)

#

But there are so much easier languages out there

#

Also classes and inheritance are not as good

#

Inheritance means you need to have an instance of parent class as one of child class's variables

#

And you can only overwrite cirtual functions

#

Basically hard to explain, c++ js decent but harder than I would want
