where i used to work, we had a lot of HR data on some HDDs that died. was all raid-ed, so was good.. but we legally had to make it "irrecoverable as possible" so i took the 8 drives into the car park, where i had a hammer drill and HSS metal drill bit in the car... and just filled the drives full of holes through the platter and the pcb

[manic torrent]

perfection.

[fossil frost]

not quite... they were stored in an out building because we didnt know if we were ok to put them in the bin or not.. and a few weeks later, some friendly arsonist set fire to the outbuilding... luckily, the firedoors between it and the main building stopped the fire from getting to the main building... but... the fire did melt what was left of the drives 😄

[manic torrent]

oh man... that's awesome

[vapid smelt]

Old news was on ltt wan show

[frosty spade]

why do i have the regular role i chatted here like 5 times

[fossil frost]

because you dont sub to floatplane or twitch and havnt boosted the server

[frosty spade]

regular means you chat on a weekly or daily basis

i have not done that

[fossil frost]

regular means normal, standard, nothing specific of note

[frosty spade]

but regular normally means you have been talking around for you to be a recognizable face around in like most other situations it feels cheap to auto get the regular role

[fossil frost]

i can see where you are coming from. but. regular to me and a lot of other people just means "normal, or non-specific"

[frosty spade]

i just feel it is odd have a nice day tho

[fossil frost]

both played cautiously in the first half... second half, england stepped it up, and wales continued to play cautious, even when 3-0 down, wales were still playing as if it was 0-0

they didnt sing it in the first game.. then in the 2nd game, they did sing it, and looked clearly distressed about it

[burnt solar]

They shold have a UK team if they want to go further in the championships.

[fossil frost]

solidarity with all the protesting

[fossil frost]

you would get stabbed for suggesting that in any football town in the uk

[burnt solar]

Ya. But it's their loss.

[fossil frost]

its not, because scotland are crap, and wales, clearly, are crap

they dont have the money and the infrastructure that england have. as well as how the game is set up all the way down to under 7s in england... its just different in england

followed the money. then got injured. and is still sniffing around for the teams who want to give him a lot of money, because they can recoup that money from selling shirts with his name on

American MLS teams are still an elephants graveyard for top european players, and european players that couldnt quite get into the top european teams

Ronaldo is done.. hes held together with twigs and sticky tape.. he will go to where ever will give him the money

they all say that... none of them are going to say "i play for the money" because nobody is ever going to buy his shirt again if he says that... he says what people want to hear, he says whatever it is that makes him valuable to a new team

[burnt solar]

Except for Zlatan that returned to Italy

[fossil frost]

i didnt say ALL european players go to USA, i said that its an elephants graveyard... meaning that it not just an option, its an option that a lot take on

[burnt solar]

Indeed

[sonic spruce]

What’s the cheapest rotatable monitor stand I can buy for a 20 to 21 dell work monitor?

[fossil frost]

thats a very specific question, probably best to just search on google/amazon

[burnt solar]

I havent followed the mathes so I dont know if he still play full games.

[sonic spruce]

I said cheapest for a reason

As in the lowest I can go without going used

[sonic spruce]

Not using a screwdriver as a monitor stand

[polar fern]

My screwdriver finally has shipping info

👀

Desk screens only

[fossil frost]

not sure about ones that fit what you want... but im gonna buy myself one of these https://www.amazon.co.uk/Elived-Monitor-Adjustable-Powered-Monitors/dp/B087PC9L1Q

[manic torrent]

for a 20" ? Literally anything.

[sonic spruce]

It needs to be able to rotate

[manic torrent]

many of them do... just get one that does.

[dire hill]

I just finished watching ep 2 of Wednesday it is soo good

[spark wolf]

i have a question: if i rip a physical wii game disc & play it through a emulator on my gaming pc, can nintendo throw me in jail for it?

[fossil frost]

not watched it yet, gonna start it at the weekend 😄

[dire hill]

Yh it’s realy good

One of my fav Netflix shows in a while

[fossil frost]

nintendo dont give a shit about you unless you release your rip or are a developer of one of the emulators

[dire hill]

How do I get switch games on pc anyways

[spark wolf]

ok good. i promise i won’t release my rip online or share it with anyone

[iron blaze]

hell naw

they can't and never will

they wish tho

it is only illegal if you share the roms

even then you won't get into jail but don't test thar out pls

i didn't endorse piracy

[full fossil]

How can my friend make some money

He doesn’t have a car and he can’t get a job

[fossil frost]

not really tech related. more of a google question

[misty scarab]

Today is a glorious day for America

Not only did we win the world cup against Iran, but our senate also said YES to civil rights

[fossil frost]

america didnt win the world cup. they won a single game of football, in the world cup, allowing them to go through to the next round... where they will face the Netherlands, who will beat the USA

[misty scarab]

I said against Iran

[fossil frost]

thats still not winning the world cup

not even close

[misty scarab]

Anyway

Our senate also said yes to civil rights

61 yes votes, 36 no votes

[fossil frost]

civil rights bills passing should never need to be celebrated... it should just be a given that it will pass

thats how much of an ass-backwards country the USA is

[full fossil]

Don’t think that’s tech related

[wary summit]

lets have the new england patriots face off against manchester united in a battle to the death

i can almost guarantee in unarmed combat, the patriots come out on top

[wary summit]

no? it's like a portable work station

[wary summit]

that's if you want to run macos

[fluid ridge]

which the macs do 10x better

[sinful moat]

That is generally not the case.

[fluid ridge]

what?

have you seen what M1 ultra can do?

it literally rivals a 12900K + 3090 in some workflows

[sinful moat]

I have but that is usually in very specific workloads.

[fluid ridge]

and it's a gazillion times more efficient too

[sinful moat]

Impossible for that to be the case as well as that is not a real metric

[fluid ridge]

🤓

[ocean narwhal]

You guys use microshit pc game pass?

[sinful moat]

M1 is specialized for its workloads. The 12900K and 3090 are designed for much wider workloads.

[sinful moat]

Nope. Haven't even had Live for more than 5 years

[ocean narwhal]

Been thinking about it because my buddies want to play a game thats like 30 bucks or something. But I know for a fact we'll play it for less than a month, and never again. So in this case paying for a month of game pass is the obvious solution. But overall it kinda just seems like a good deal if you play a fair amount of games.

[fluid ridge]

just pay 30

[sinful moat]

Last things I played on Xbox regularly was Rock Band and Halo. Since Halo is now on PC in the form of MCC and Halo 5: Forge, I really have had no reason to go back

[fluid ridge]

you'll own the game forever

[sinful moat]

If you don't have a physical copy, you own nothing

[fluid ridge]

me and my friends literally drop 30-60 on games we play for 2 weeks and never touch again on a near daily basis

[ocean narwhal]

Yeah we don't waste money that often usually

[sonic spruce]

No

[ocean narwhal]

I guarantee you I won't play the game ever again tho, so for this one instance it absolutely is the right play

[ocean narwhal]

im talking about the PC game pass

[sinful moat]

Ehh still. I don't do gaming as a service.

I either have the full rights to my games or I don't play.

[ocean narwhal]

Do you really have full rights to a steam game tho

[sinful moat]

More so than a rental.

[graceful burrow]

Unless you can download and save an offline installer you ain't got shit tbh

[sinful moat]

Oh, I have archived installs of everything

Including Assassin's Creed III with DLC.

[graceful burrow]

Idk why you specifically brought up ac3 but OK kek

[full fossil]

pretty weird yea

[sinful moat]

Because Ubisoft killed the DLC servers, meaning I can no longer download them.

[ocean narwhal]

imo if you want to actually preserve a game, even if you own it on steam, you should just download a pirated copy and save it

[full fossil]

gog is pretty decent

[full fossil]

you should stop discussing pirating stuff since it breaks discords tos

[sinful moat]

I love GOG.

[ocean narwhal]

lmao

anyways, or if it has a direct installer like GOG yeah thats fine

[sinful moat]

Is it really piracy if you have the rights to use the software though?

[full fossil]

why do we always have to devolve into this garbage piracy discussion

[graceful burrow]

If I buy the game on steam and torrent an epic games version then no

[full fossil]

actually yes

[fluid ridge]

there is nothing wrong with software piracy

[full fossil]

man im blocking a lot tonight

[sinful moat]

Because internet pirates are really internet Archivists.

[graceful burrow]

Nop
You get the steam software license

[fluid ridge]

if the developers choose to charge for their product so be it, but if i decide i dont want to pay so be it too

it's not like they lose physical inventory when i "steal" their stuff

[lilac sage]

I feel like we talk about piracy whenever you arrive. Usually it never gets talked about

[graceful burrow]

True in a sense
There have been more than a couple times I've been saved but a decades old forum post lmao

[lilac sage]

do you have a search bot to look for the words piracy? or can you see the future?

[full fossil]

an epic games version of a steam gasme isnt going to activate on steam

[sinful moat]

I have a laptop that is my current retro gaming PC. There were some discs I needed that my original installers had degraded.

[full fossil]

thus for you have to do something modifying the ability for it to activate to use it

[sinful moat]

I don't do cracked software.

[full fossil]

which the epic games original downloaded version did not give you the right or the person to distribute it the rights to have

but i dont want to argue law i do that all day its so annoying

[graceful burrow]

Funk is a loyer

Nah funk is pretty chill tbh

[lilac sage]

i barely see funk but whenever I do piracy is involved

[sinful moat]

Jab jab

[full fossil]

noones coming after you for piracy unless someone really just wants to wreck your world

[ocean narwhal]

magnetized to my comment about it

[graceful burrow]

Calling someone an internet baby because you disagree with them is hilarious though

[full fossil]

sometimes people will take it that far

[graceful burrow]

Feels very tone deaf

[sinful moat]

My ISP just changed hands. I opened Transmission to download Ubuntu and I got a call from their IT security line. XD

[full fossil]

check out germany's piracy lawsuits, constant bombasrdment of anyone downloading torrents

[sinful moat]

"We noticed you were using a torrent protocol"
"Yeah? Can you see what I'm downloading?"
"No"
"Then you don't know what it is or if it is illegal. Piss off."

[full fossil]

ur isp doesnt care if u p2p ubuntu

[lilac sage]

can I joke about pirating linux?

[fluid ridge]

where do you guys live lol

[ocean narwhal]

mfw you torrent shareware

[sinful moat]

They couldn't see what I was using, only that I was using a Torrent protocol.

[fluid ridge]

ive torrented so much shit but nobody has ever contacted me

[full fossil]

not sure how this tangent is going

[fluid ridge]

i literally torrent all of my anime no vpn

[ocean narwhal]

I been contacted before in USA

[lilac sage]

yea, I pirated winrar, what about it? :P

[ocean narwhal]

only when no VPN tho

[sinful moat]

EVERYONE has pirated WinRAR.

[fluid ridge]

i guess canadian ISPs just built different

[sinful moat]

IDK why either. It's such juck software.

[fluid ridge]

why pirate winrar when 7zip exists

[graceful burrow]

L tbh
7zip is superior either way

[sinful moat]

7-Zip FTW

[lilac sage]

yknow i like to feel bad when I use it, thats why I use winrar cuz it tells me to buy it

[full fossil]

you didnt pirate winrar you just exceeded the terms of their freeware usage agreement

but yes 7zip

[sinful moat]

That technically is piracy if you use software outside its allowed license scope

[ocean narwhal]

Its bazzare that 7zip is actually just superior

and yet i still use winrar lol

[full fossil]

no thats just illegal

and causing damage to the company

[lilac sage]

piracy is a nono, other crimes are okay

[sinful moat]

10K per instance

😄

[full fossil]

piracy would be bypassing the activation of winrar

[graceful burrow]

I've done it kek

[wispy marsh]

I've tried winrar once

[full fossil]

jail sir

[graceful burrow]

Winrar was neat in 2009

[full fossil]

JAIL

[sinful moat]

No. Piracy is in the literal sense using software for which you do not or have exceeded the licensure.

[wispy marsh]

Winrar made me use rar extract frog

I never did look back at winrar after that

[full fossil]

i mean its semantics now but i could get you a lesser charge of piracy than just being an idiot and forgetting ur license expired but if u wanna argue it piracy u can seal that fate for urself

[lilac sage]

why wasnt extensions to open .zip files native in old windows?

[sinful moat]

Whatever you do, DO NOT install anything from NCH. It will hijack everything on your computer.

[lilac sage]

like im pretty sure in xp it wasnt

[full fossil]

judge i really WAS going 120 miles an hour

bruh we had it at 100 -.-

[wispy marsh]

Back then, I didn't bothered with zip files

[sinful moat]

That usually is not pursued except in the corporate space.

[lilac sage]

i was in a car going 120, pretty stressful

[wispy marsh]

I've also never daily driven XP or 7

[misty scarab]

how

[full fossil]

you must not live in germany

[ocean narwhal]

Yeah cos what are you gonna sue an individual for, their $-40,000 in debt?

[ivory wolf]

Dogs replies is stuck in 2020

[sinful moat]

Nope. F the EU. XD

[lilac sage]

so you press the accelerator

[misty scarab]

120 is just highway speed

how is it stressful

[lilac sage]

120 MPH not KM/H

[sinful moat]

XP is God status. 🙂

[misty scarab]

yeah

highway speed

[full fossil]

weird

[wispy marsh]

I used win ME and vista for gaming

[lilac sage]

ye if ur going 120 regular ur basically gonna get ur license taken if you ever get pulled over

[wispy marsh]

After that, i went to 8.1

[lilac sage]

anything over 100 and they can arrest you

[misty scarab]

No

[wispy marsh]

It was the final non-junk OS

[sinful moat]

OH Hell. Vista to 8.1 was a shocker.

[misty scarab]

Wir fahren, fahren, fahren auf der Autobahn

[wispy marsh]

I love 8.1

[sinful moat]

I could run betas of 8 on a Pentium 4.

I used to play TF2 on a Pentium 4 and a Radeon HD 3450.

[wispy marsh]

But it died someday and I switched over to 10, and that's when i started this pc journey

[misty scarab]

nop

[lilac sage]

ok for context where do you live?

country works

[misty scarab]

here you can only get arrested for 2x the limit, but in other countries there is no limit

[lilac sage]

ok so I assume this is not the US

[misty scarab]

i am in the us

but speeding here is 2x over limit for arrested

[full fossil]

it depends on the state.

[sinful moat]

LOL Arkansas State Police will pit you for refusing to stop 3 miles over the limit. XD

[full fossil]

locality matters

[sinful moat]

"It wasn't a suggestion. You WILL stop or we will MAKE you."

[misty scarab]

for my state its 2x the limit

[full fossil]

i doubt it

[misty scarab]

and troopers will troop here too, eg taking their ford explorers off road

[full fossil]

but im not that versed in all the states

[lilac sage]

in urban areas on the interstate the speed limit is 60-65 mph

[full fossil]

if ur going 140 in a 70 im putting you in cuffs but ur prolly gonna kill yourself first

[lilac sage]

rural areas go to 70 or 75

[misty scarab]

if a vehicle is speeding excessively – more than 31 miles per hour over the posted speed limit – then either a 15-day license suspension or something else (doesnt say what specifically)

[misty scarab]

higher

[full fossil]

thats a more correct law

[sinful moat]

Oh my goodness. My message was censored.

[misty scarab]

speed limit on the highway is 70-75 here

[lilac sage]

but then that just proves what I said, if ur going 120mph ur getting ur license taken away lol

[misty scarab]

120 what

[lilac sage]

in rural areas, if ur in urban areas its typically lower

[misty scarab]

i dunno, i dont go there

too much traffic and crime n stuff

[sinful moat]

Anyway Arkansas is known for "chemicals from Breaking Bad" and State troopers pitting out of state vehicles at least three times a week.

[misty scarab]

i prefer middle of nowhere

[lilac sage]

other drivers is what makes speeding dangerous

otherwise it isnt at all

[misty scarab]

i go 35 in a 30

:3

[sinful moat]

You know we had troopers accidentally set a fleeing motorcyclist on fire last month?

[lilac sage]

I saw that video

[sinful moat]

LOL

[lilac sage]

they tazed the gas can in his backpack?

[wise ermine]

What the frick did i just say

[misty scarab]

I allegedly went 55 down a 35 road allegedly, no other cars were around, it was an empty road at night

[wise ermine]

See*

[sinful moat]

They tazed him and they did not know that he had a container of gas in his backpack

[lilac sage]

ye isaw that one then

[sinful moat]

So when they tazed him, he hit the ground and it broke open.

[lilac sage]

he stopped dropped and rolled

[sinful moat]

No. He didn't.

[lilac sage]

well he did, it just didnt help

since he was doused in gasoline

[sinful moat]

The troopers had to put him out with fire extinguishers.

He could not control it.

Moles fans, waste of money or actually somewhat good?

Molex *

[lilac sage]

they arent really better than regular 4 pins since you cant really control speed on them well

[misty scarab]

Does the Dark Rock Pro 4 sufficient for Ryzen 7 5800x3d

[lilac sage]

yes

[sonic spruce]

But like are they gonna run at max speed or no?

[lilac sage]

they should

[sonic spruce]

Oh, and that’s bad!

[lilac sage]

not bad for thermals but they are gonan be loud

[sonic spruce]

Yes I know it’s bad

[west gust]

5800x3D one of the best processors for gaming isn't it. I'm surprised that AMD doesn't put that 3D cache into their 7950X or 5950X

[sonic spruce]

Longevity

[fathom marsh]

where can i go for someone to help me?

[cunning yoke]

Is a spanned volume on windows effectively the same as zfs? I just want to combine the storage capacity of multiple drives to one big ol drive

[lilac sage]

they need to make enough money off the 7000 series before they release a 3d cache version of it.

product segmentation

[misty scarab]

It is about 3% slower than a stock 12900ks

within a margin of error, that basically means they are practically on par

[sinful moat]

That cache limits the thermal headroom.

[lilac sage]

nowadays ryzen 7000 and intel 13th gen are faster, but its still the best gaming CPU on am4

[west gust]

Ah I see

[misty scarab]

Depends tho

[lilac sage]

depends if ur on cache sensitive games or not

[misty scarab]

in MSFS2020, the 5800X3D having 3x the L3 cache still makes it better than the 13900

[lilac sage]

but on average in most testing its inferior

[misty scarab]

as repoorted by people in MSFS server

[west gust]

Think I'm going to wait another 1-2 years before upgrading those components tbh. Gonna be a big commitment since I gotta upgrade the entire motherboard and ram

[misty scarab]

im upgrading from the 3600 to the 5800x3d

cache sensative games + fastest cpu i can get without a new motherboard

[sonic spruce]

so would a stock hp Oem cpu cooler be enough for a 3770k?

[sinful moat]

If you run it under stock operation, maybe.

Which version of the stock cooler is it? Is it the heatpipe tower cooler or is it the typical "stock" cooler?

[sonic spruce]

The one that’s a metal circle and a fan

[sinful moat]

Oh. Eh it should be okay for stock operation.

[unique needle]

hey is there anyone playing insurgency sandstorm on pc ?

[sonic spruce]

[sinful moat]

Yeah totally fine.

[burnt solar]

Great upgrade. AM4 ❤️

[sonic spruce]

Photoshop

[sinful moat]

Not for photoshop no.

[sonic spruce]

Why no photoshop?

[sinful moat]

Because Photoshop is a heavier load than gaming.

Heavier sustained load.

[past crow]

On the AKG website
but the deal ended awhile ago

[sinful moat]

Preferred seller?

[sonic spruce]

I’m not rich wtf

[sinful moat]

No. Which online store do you prefer?

[sonic spruce]

Amazon, eBay, Best Buy, Walmart, target

[sinful moat]

Ok.

[sonic spruce]

Online and in person for some

[misty scarab]

Whichever is cheapest™️

[sonic spruce]

Cheapest and does what it needs to do

[misty scarab]

I was about to buy the 5800X3D on Amazon for 359, but I looked on newegg and it was 329

so i bought it on newegg

[sinful moat]

Oh wow those got expensive

[sonic spruce]

The problem with Newegg is sometimes they’ll ruck with you and take your money and stop you with doing anything

From doing*

[misty scarab]

never had a problem with them

[sinful moat]

I've never had an issue when buying FROM Newegg. It's always been with the marketplace sellers.

[sonic spruce]

Oh

I mean if it’s Newegg’s eBay account then I’ll give it a try

[burnt solar]

I saw some good deals on the 5800X3D but my 5800X is good enough for me.

[misty scarab]

the extra l3 is going to benefit me greatly

[sinful moat]

Here. The BeQuiet Pure Rock 2. Perfect for the 3770K

https://www.newegg.com/be-quiet-pure-rock-2/p/13C-001F-00061?Item=9SIA68VE5J3410

[burnt solar]

Yes but I wont see the difference with the games I'm playing. I'll wait two years befor I upgrade.

[misty scarab]

next upgrade will be GPU

[burnt solar]

What gpu do you have now?

[misty scarab]

3060 👔

[sinful moat]

You won't see a benefit by upgrading your GPU beyond that;

Really you need to look at a platform upgrade.

Let me show you something.

[misty scarab]

yes I will

I need more vram

[sinful moat]

No you won't. You are bottlenecked to hell by your CPU.

[misty scarab]

no

its a 5800x3d ???

[sinful moat]

Oh sorry I have my conversations crossed

XD

[misty scarab]

?????

[sonic spruce]

Might be too big, but I will check soon

[sinful moat]

It's marginally higher than the stock heatsink

[sonic spruce]

My bad then

Is my system gpu bottlenecked?

3770k and gtx 960

[sinful moat]

No. Definitely CPU right now

[sonic spruce]

What about ram

[misty scarab]

anyway

[sonic spruce]

32gbs ddr3

[sinful moat]

Honestly I would look at saving up for a platform upgrade.

[sonic spruce]

2tbs hdd

My dad wants to buy me a whole new pc no budget in a couple of years so

[misty scarab]

3060ti upgrade to 6800 maybe

would need a new PSU aswell

[sonic spruce]

7090 ti

[misty scarab]

ah yes a 7090

when the current gen is 40xx

[sonic spruce]

I said tears

Years *

[sinful moat]

3070 will last me for several years.

[misty scarab]

i got my 3060ti last year but its not enough

[sinful moat]

I got my 3070 and a new 144hz monitor on combo for $1000

[burnt solar]

My 3080 Ti will last me a couple years as well

[sinful moat]

Last September

[misty scarab]

I got my 3060ti for 399.99 US and my monitor for 275 bucks

1440p 170hz 0.5ms

[sinful moat]

Just replaced my X299 Dark and 7820X last week with a MSI MPG Gaming Force Z590 and an 11700K

Paid $350 for the platform upgrade after I had paid $500 for the X299 platform three years ago

The 11700K stomps my 7820X and uses less power.

[tight marlin]

I would have preferred an Apple Watch ultra due to my lifestyle, but I’m happy with what I have

[misty scarab]

im getting pretty much a stock 12900ks without changing platform

[tight marlin]

A fellow toaster

[sinful moat]

A stock 12900KS is now the 13700K. XD

[graceful burrow]

I've never heard anyone say "11700k" and "uses less power" in the same sentence before lmao

[burnt solar]

My headset is starting to break so I have to buy a new one. Perhaps a steelseries nova.

[misty scarab]

the l3 cache is a big advantage of the 5800x3d tho

[sinful moat]

The 11700K under stock operation beats my overclocked 7820X.

[graceful burrow]

I don't doubt it

[sinful moat]

Same core count.

Exact same core count.

[burnt solar]

But better cores.

[sinful moat]

Well newer cores, better memory controller, faster interfaces

[misty scarab]

also im going to run 128gb of ram on a 5800x3d

[burnt solar]

Upgrades is always nice.

[misty scarab]

" why do you need so much ram " comming in 3.. 2..

[sinful moat]

I carried over my 3200MHz memory kit which is natively supported on 10th and 11th gen.

[burnt solar]

What will you do with all that ram?

[tight marlin]

I need a bit more ram, just to help beam load better. And more fans

[misty scarab]

not rely on my swapfile

i get up to erm,, 80gb usage on it 🫠

[tight marlin]

My pc would prefer some better cooling

[burnt solar]

Nice. I haven't tried that yet.

[misty scarab]

128gb ram means I can set my swapfile to off or auto

until then I need to suplement my ram usage requirement with swap

[sinful moat]

Also my 11700K runs cooler on my 280MM AIO than the 7820X

And the 7820X was LAPPED

[burnt solar]

So you're using Linux?

[misty scarab]

no

[devout grail]

when did they cover being able to view other people's face data on wan show ?

[misty scarab]

also I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux,
is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.

[graceful burrow]

Boo
Get new material

[tight marlin]

I remember the video about it

[sinful moat]

That's widely understood and not necessary to bring up

[misty scarab]

i just call it swapfile because swap is correct

who calls it paging

[tight marlin]

I’m just here

[burnt solar]

Ubuntu or manjaro. I use manjaro on my laptop.

[misty scarab]

Neither

[sinful moat]

Pagefile is named because it's disk space used to store information from RAM. Information in RAM is stored in PAGES. Thus, pagefile.

It's a file for storing pages.

[misty scarab]

swapfile>

The least recently used files or programs in RAM can be "swapped out" to the hard disk until they're needed later, allowing new files or programs to be "swapped in" to RAM.

[slate agate]

in older versions of windows like the 95/98 era it was common to fully disable swap/page file if you had enough ram to handle that

some programs did not like you doing that however and expected it on the hard drive

I haven't looked into it for a few years but I thought the more modern windows os's have way more problems trying to do the same thing

[misty scarab]

If you have enough ram you can disable it fully, but if you run out, or if some programs are older, they will crash

[sinful moat]

I think it could make things very efficient and helpful sort of power user style when i really get into the tabs and stuff and get good at it lol.

Is a 80mm fan and heatsink enough for a 3770s and also 3770k?

[hearty spear]

if it's a decent one, sure

[sonic spruce]

It’s the one that came with this

https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03517380

[hearty spear]

it'll be okay. HP never "overdoes" cooling, with few exceptions

[sonic spruce]

So it’ll be ok with a i7 3770k?

[hearty spear]

should be

[sonic spruce]

Gaming and photoshop?

[hearty spear]

again should be. You haven't given anything super specific about the cooler other than "It's an HP OEM"
So, best bet? Run some thermal tests after setting things up.

[manic torrent]

[sonic spruce]

80mm fan, metal heat sink

[hearty spear]

It's a car. 4 Wheels, Engine, steering wheel.

How fast is it?

[manic torrent]

about 9.8m/s^2 in the right circumstances

Awwwww yeah. My 5700X arrived at a sorting centre that directly delivers to me, so I should have it tomorrow, or worst case, friday!

[hearty spear]

hate to say it, but "heatsink with 80mm fan" is absolutely useless for knowing anything about how good it is.

But given the fact it's an HP OEM, it'll be "okay"

[manic torrent]

I should get some more coolant and change it out

[manic torrent]

if it isn't, yolo you can get another for $5 from the e-waste store

2. GT 720

4. RX 480 8GB
5. RX VEGA 8GB
6. RX 6800XT 16GB

[stray apex]

I believe nvidia is supposed to be more powerful this gen?

[wispy marsh]

Performance per watt and per dollar tho?

[stray apex]

why are you concerned about performance per dollar
if you're considering a 4090ti

[wispy marsh]

Because a dollar not spent is a dollar saved

[stray apex]

then buy a 6800xt for $500

[wispy marsh]

I already have the 6800XT

[stray apex]

then don't upgrade

save over a grand
your current gpu is probably good enough

[graceful burrow]

[wraith sonnet]

24 hours in furmark and aida and still at 36 c

i have a NR200P with a noctua D12L and a 12600K

have you actually measured the draw of your CPU alone?

because TDP specs are useless, as per usual

Highest I've seen is 320w

[teal estuary]

[velvet marsh]

It's TR lol

[teal estuary]

i haven't bothered to measure mine, but i know its not that

[velvet marsh]

24c at 4.3ghz

[teal estuary]

about 40k in r23, right?

[velvet marsh]

38k yeah

[teal estuary]

because iirc, that and my 7950x are on par for CB performance, that power draw though

[velvet marsh]

Yeah the power draw is nuts, but also PCIE lanes

[teal estuary]

also, point of TDP is bullshit made perfectly with the 3945wx my work machine has, its a 3900x w/ a 280w TDP spec...

but the thermal throttle is so ass

it has bios oc

[full fossil]

i know the samsung book's have a different skinned windows 11, so they have some settings in their own samsung settings

Electric cars need some better range and faster charging before more people would contemplate switching. And maybe some subsidies due to the cost of then

[tight marlin]

Not the beans at all

[wispy marsh]

I wanna get a pro2

[fossil frost]

they are expensive because its a "new" technology and nobody is buying them because of the lack of range and infrastructure.. if the range and infrastructure was there, people would buy them... but... the infrastructure isnt there, because nobody is buying them.... chicken and egg situation

[hollow pulsar]

Not to mention the hazards of batteries.

[fossil frost]

we deal with the hazards of a very explosive and flammable liquid sat in our cars already

[tight marlin]

Yes, they do need better fire resistance

[tight marlin]

Yeah, but I will say this not as a hater, but as an educated person. Car fires can be put out within a day. Evs can burn for a month and it’s hard to put out the fire.

[hollow pulsar]

No. I meant the hazards of batteries. As in not just fires and such, but leaks and the environment and disposing of them and evildoers dropping off a car in a river and having large amounts of battery chemicals in the water suddenly…

[fossil frost]

petrol fires can be put out in minutes.. ev fires CAN last days (not months at all)... but it depends on the design. if the batteries are compartmentalised, then that dramatically reduces the chance of long burning fires

[tight marlin]

Some get dumped in a water source for a while, some get buried in a ditch.

evil doers drop cars with a lot of petrol and oil in them, into rivers, right now...

Which is worse? Battery chemicals or fossil fuels?

[fossil frost]

im not saying its not a problem, im just pointing out that the hazards you claim are unique to EVs, are there for all cars

[tight marlin]

Mostly as escape vehicles being dumped. But yes.

[hollow pulsar]

I don’t actually know. I’m just saying battery chemicals are pretty toxic and everyone thinks big batteries are the savior of the environment- but I have my doubts because they absolutely won’t talk about the hazards of batteries.

[tight marlin]

You can cut high power by popping the frunk , removing a plastic cover, and snipping a big orange wire twice. But the car can still be electrified from the accident (iirc, I do accept being corrected if I got it wrong

[fossil frost]

you can puncture a fuel tank, but the car will still be explosive too... because the petrol is throughout the pipes and pumps and other suck places in the car.... not forgetting, any regular car has a 12v 900amp battery next to the engine, designed to make big sparks

[tight marlin]

If you have an old gas car that is reliable and reasonably efficient, it’s better for the environment than buying a new car

[gritty cloud]

imagine not having i5 4th gen cpu

[gritty cloud]

couldn't be me tbh

[tight marlin]

And in accidents with modern cars, fuel pump is cut so when the fuel depressurises it’s not as dangerous, yes it’s still dangerous but it’s not spewing from a broken line

[gritty cloud]

when are 13th gen cpu's getting shipped

[fossil frost]

both have negatives, right now, EV technology is quite young, and quite inefficient... as more billions get poured into it... the tech will become better, batteries will become more dense and safer. motors will become more efficient, and EVs will take over in some way or another (battery EVs or hydrogen based EVs), petrol and diesel are on their way out

[tight marlin]

Yes batteries are also an issue in gas cars.

[tight marlin]

Yes, it’s still too early to make people think it’s the best option currently. Both have positives and negatives. We already have improved battery tech between first generation evs and new ones

[past egret]

i think people should stop getting tesla just for the autopilot feature

[fossil frost]

i think people should stop getting teslas in general because of their awful QA problems, like with their cars just having wheels fall off on the motorway

[tight marlin]

And also, I hate the people who act like owning a Tesla makes them better than you.

[fossil frost]

stop concentrating on autopilot, and spend time and money on making the car actually good

[tight marlin]

Yes

Like, yes you can beat me in a drag strip and you release less emissions, but can you do this “v8 noises”

[fossil frost]

who gives a shit about the noise?

it means nothing

[past egret]

rimacs are cooler EVs

[spare shadow]

You clearly don’t have much experience driving fast cars both electric and gas

Lol yes exactly right on lol you can look up how many recalls are issued by any number of different automakers, Lexus and Toyota are different tho their shit lasts

[fossil frost]

i do, i drive both at a track, not far away from my house, driven quite a lot of different cars... and i can tell you that the noise means absolutely fuck all compared to the performance... and the performance isnt always directly related to the noise it makes

[spare shadow]

And the performance also isn’t as good on electric cars lol they r too heavy

[fossil frost]

tbh, the only cars where you really hear the noise anymore is on open wheel cars

because the noise damping inside most closed bodied performance vehicles is very very good now

the mclaren 650s i drove around the track earlier on this year, was silent on the inside

the BMW i8 i drove was silent, and performed as well as any petrol car too

[spare shadow]

Next time use more throttle so the valves on the exhaust open up

[fossil frost]

ill phone mclaren and ask them to get onto removing the active noise cancellation they use on the car, then yeah, that might work

ohh wait... they wouldnt do that... for anybody

[spare shadow]

Mclarens aren’t silent on the inside lmao

You can hear the engine

[fossil frost]

drive one... and you will find out

ah, the LT, the one where they remove everything that isnt the required legal things that need to be there...

[full fossil]

uwu

[fossil frost]

the standard 675 will be full of active noise cancellation

[spare shadow]

Well it was not silent

[fossil frost]

yeah, it wont be, because its a special LT edition... with everything removed...

[spare shadow]

Most cars you can hear everything

[fossil frost]

incorrect... most cars have passive noise cancellation now... only older or cheaper/shitter cars dont

[spare shadow]

If you floor it in a dodge charger and hear nothing your not getting the full experience

[fossil frost]

high end cars have active noise cancellation

ahhhh, you should qualify "cars" with "really shittily inefficient american cars, because america hasnt caught up with the rest of the world yet"

[spare shadow]

So most cars are high end cars now interesting

[fossil frost]

read what i wrote you tool

[spare shadow]

So you mean padding

Yes most cars have that

[fossil frost]

i give up, you are clearly an idiot

[spare shadow]

All cars have seats and carpets

[fossil frost]

and i have children i need to collect from school

[spare shadow]

Yet here you are

Using your time very wisely

Yes it did

Would be pretty easy and dirt cheap to implement not sure how well it would work though maybe it can eliminate repetitive tire noises

Most cars sell with not loud tires

But my winters are loud lol

You lost me

[wind pulsar]

He literally wrote what you meant, I don't know how that is idiotic

Cars nowadays DO have noise padding for passive noise cancellation now, literally what he wrote

[tight marlin]

Us car guys do. It’s a better way of dealing with stress than being an addict

[spare shadow]

All you need is a microphone and some software to integrate with the speaker system so very feasible and cheap but not sure it could do much other than eliminate tire noise and low rpm repetitive engine noise

[wind pulsar]

Nah, it's not entirely that easy

[full fossil]

Hey can someone plz dm I want to learn some pc stuff

[wind pulsar]

Active noise cancellation would be cheap as fuck if it was that easy

[graceful burrow]

If you have them dm how can you verify they aren't feeding you bullshit

[spare shadow]

It is it’s just trouble to refine it and work among all the extra noises on the road

[tight marlin]

The lope of an old v8 is just amazing

[wind pulsar]

UwU

[wind pulsar]

You said it wrong

[spare shadow]

It is cheap asf you can get a crappy headphones for very cheap with it, won’t be very refined nor will it work as well as a Bose which has had zillions in R&D

[graceful burrow]

Did i

[tight marlin]

Technically you are right, but actually it has to recreate the noise in the opposite polarity to cancel the noise. It’s like taking two speakers on the same head unit, playing some music on them, and reversing the polarity of one of the speakers. It cancels the noise

[wind pulsar]

You should've said 'If youwu have thewm dm, how cawn youwu cewify they awen't feeding youwu buwwshit'

[tight marlin]

And yes, good anc takes refinement.

[graceful burrow]

I'm gonna have a fucking stroke

[tight marlin]

Shitty anc doesn’t take much r&d, unless you are Samsung

[spare shadow]

Yes I know lol and it only works on the lower frequencies

[tight marlin]

It works best with constant noises

I have a set since I can get overstimulated easily

[wind pulsar]

Pwease don't have a stwoke, youwu stiww have to towtuwe me uwu

[spare shadow]

Rephrase… ONLY works with repetitive noises, it doesn’t respond with opposite polarity instantly because it has to hear the noise first then implement the ANC

[tight marlin]

Yes

Hence a constant noise like an engine idling or a fan spinning

Air rushing into the anc mics is very horrific

[spare shadow]

Everything else being canceled is from passive noise cancelation

[graceful burrow]

That's been done

Exactly

god I have the best emote for this but dont have nitro, fuck

when it's off, sure

I've had people who joined the server a week ago and said 15 words try to friend me

[tight marlin]

Yeah, that bitch is loud

I just leave it in my notifs because it fuels my ego

[spare shadow]

If my new v8 mclaren doesn’t make noise on the track it’s gonna get returned to the store

[full fossil]

I have 9 friend requests when did that happen

[full fossil]

ah yes the mclaren store, next to the milk and toilet paper

[lilac sage]

yup

Ive said 1 message to them

friend request

[graceful burrow]

I usually tell them to get out of my dm's but not so nicely

[lilac sage]

no its ppl too embarassed to talk in public

I dont understand it
