[silver sandal]

Idk if it is or not now lmfao. idk if its placebo

[graceful burrow]

[silver sandal]

Yeah

[graceful burrow]

[coarse comet]

I just realised I forgot about my youtube channel I posted one video about the amd rnda3 announcement and that's all I've done 😂

[graceful burrow]

nvidia didnt announce rdna3

[coarse comet]

Yeah I just realised I put the wrong thing

[silver sandal]

Corsair Flex is fucking awesome, too bad its $2k

[graceful burrow]

[coarse comet]

That's 2x more than my whole setup

[silver sandal]

It's twice as much as all my monitors smh my head

[coarse comet]

Hahaha

I paid £120 for my monitor

Think I'm getting a second for Christmas though

[silver sandal]

Very nice

Yeah its on corsair's website

[unreal thorn]

I like to dice potatoes, microwave them for 15 minutes, and dip them in ketchup

[silver sandal]

Got my 65" oled for 1600

Flex just isn't worth it

[brisk cloak]

ltx expo yippieee

[coarse comet]

I make 1600 in a year

[brisk cloak]

bro makes graphics card in a year

[unreal thorn]

Neither are apple laptops but people buy those lol

[coarse comet]

Litterally 😂

[silver sandal]

Depends on the card 💀

[brisk cloak]

he be makin a 1660 a year

[silver sandal]

True

[coarse comet]

Wish bro I got a 1650 last year 😂

[brisk cloak]

be me
make 1.3 RTX 4090 ti a year
can’t pay for rent

[coarse comet]

After my rent food bill etc I have 20 a year left lol

[unreal thorn]

it shouldn't take more than 2 months to make $1600. WTF are they paying you per hour?

Not in spare cash, total

Yeah I hope not, with that income

[coarse comet]

£0.76 I'm 14 apprentice engineer

[brisk cloak]

I’ve got a part time where I make $14.49 an hour but I don’t work often

[silver sandal]

Child labor?

[unreal thorn]

slavery*

[coarse comet]

Not child labour in uk apprenticeship is school bro I ain't complaining with getting paid for school

[unreal thorn]

.76 pounds per hour

is slavery

[coarse comet]

That or I get no money

[silver sandal]

You're a kid you have your whole life to work

[unreal thorn]

Yeah, have some dignity

[coarse comet]

I need an apprenticeship to get the qualifications better than doing English and math I do welding and stuff

[unreal thorn]

That wage should be fucking illegal I don't care what the reason is

Ceos need to be punched

[silver sandal]

Fr.

[coarse comet]

Its common here lol they don't have to give a wage so i ain't complaing

[silver sandal]

You could make more money suing their asses

[coarse comet]

I make £20 but becuase I'm learning I pay the fees and its 0.76

[unreal thorn]

I'm getting paid less than minimum wage because corporate are scumbags. My boss is trying to get it fixed.

minimum wage here is about $13 and I get paid 12

[coarse comet]

Apprenticeship costs

[silver sandal]

Think about what you're saying. You're paying your employer so you can make money smh my head

[coarse comet]

Not an employer there a school

[unreal thorn]

It doesn't fucking matter. Work is work.

You do work you should get paid.

[coarse comet]

Dosent class as work tho its education lmao

[hearty spear]

Apprenticeship is not Interning. Very different

[heady ledge]

I hear LMG is hiring 😆

[unreal thorn]

They are, a lot

[coarse comet]

Wayy to far I live in Scotland and 14 so I can't move 😂

[hearty spear]

If you're a canuckistanian citizen

[unreal thorn]

They need people to run the online store iirc

And customer support

[coarse comet]

My pc dies on the steam homepage

[unreal thorn]

Loser

[mild elm]

Is there like a latency difference between putting a keyboard cable in the monitor or mobo

[unreal thorn]

Yes but I don't know if it's even measurable

[hearty spear]

Insignificant

[unreal thorn]

the monitor is a degree of seperation

[coarse comet]

probably by less than a milliseccond

[unreal thorn]

^

I'd like to say I wouldn't even worry about it but I'm picky about that stuff. YOU shouldn't even worry about it

[coarse comet]

reallly want the selfie linus mouse pad but its too big for my desk lol

[hearty spear]

Any lag a usb hub adds to a keyboard is way less than a monitor has for input lag

[hearty spear]

That's a weird obsession

[unreal thorn]

Misleading language, because the latency is so small

Unless you're talking about the monitor's usb hub vs video input

[coarse comet]

i know but it genuinly matches the colours of my setup XD

[gilded quest]

should have gotten it for $5 on black friday lol

[hollow zealot]

[coarse comet]

i have no money lol

[hollow zealot]

I do hope the black friday sales ship soon

[gilded quest]

I already got mine

arrived this past monday

[hollow zealot]

Ah dang
Must be slow for me just because holiday chaos at LTT

[coarse comet]

£0.25 i have and the mouce pad is like 10cm2 too big for my setup anyway

[gilded quest]

when did you place? at the end of that weekend?

I think my order was specifically on thanksgiving....

[hollow zealot]

I bought the Wan hoodie/pants deal
Which was on black friday

It's been on "shipment data received" since Dec 3rd

[gilded quest]

4rd

[hollow zealot]

[silver sandal]

Built tough

[unreal thorn]

When a usb port breaks, is it a good idea to fill it with hot glue to protect it? I already did it but I'm just wondering what people think

[hollow zealot]

It's chill, I'm hoping it at least shows up before Christmas but it's no biggie if it doesn't

[unreal thorn]

The blue plastic part got ripped out

[hollow zealot]

I understand that holidays are a massive pain for any form of retail

[jagged spoke]

Hi guys !

Hope everyone doing great

[coarse comet]

the usb ports on my pc turn on and off every 5 seconds only on the front ones the ones on the motherboard io are fine

[jagged spoke]

I have one honest question

[hollow zealot]

[coarse comet]

yes how about yourself

[jagged spoke]

So I live in UK and I bought preorder of ASUS Rog Strix 4080 OC Gaming from Overclockers UK

[unreal thorn]

Happy for you

[coarse comet]

nice i live in the uk also

[jagged spoke]

But the guys at warehouse made mistake and sent me gaming non oc version

[unreal thorn]

I'm looking forward to buying a 3080 when I have the money

[unreal thorn]

Make them send you the right one

[gilded quest]

what case?
have you tried plugging the headers in again?

[jagged spoke]

I paid 1510£ for the card

[steel marsh]

im waiting on 7900xtx stock and 4080 price cuts

[unreal thorn]

What is the question spit it out

[steel marsh]

im in uk too

[jagged spoke]

Now what is actual difference between 4080 strix oc and non oc ?

[coarse comet]

not allowed my parents got me the pc 2 years ago and the deal is that i cant open it or change anything

[jagged spoke]

Is the Oc worth 1500£ ?

[unreal thorn]

It doesn't matter, they sent you the wrong thing and now they owe you a replacement

[steel marsh]

higher boost and memory clocks

[unreal thorn]

And you owe them the card back, unfortunately

If they send you the right one.

[coarse comet]

still overkill no matter what lol

[unreal thorn]

You paid for one thing and got another and that's all that matters

[jagged spoke]

Yha I already have collection tomorrow

I’m sending the wrong GPU back to them

I did some crazy changes in my Pc because of this gpu

[gilded quest]

thats fucking stupid
why can't you open it up?

have they never heard of the word MAINTENANCE

[jagged spoke]

You guys cannot even imagine how how massive big it is

[unreal thorn]

They should be sending you the correct one first and THEN collecting the other one. Now you have to wait extra time to have a gpu because they made a mistake

[coarse comet]

i know but they say i will break it

[unreal thorn]

That's what amazon does

[jagged spoke]

I had 3090 FTW3 Ultra V2 black edition

[coarse comet]

its started running really slow aswell it used to do gta 5 max settings 40fps now its 20

[hollow zealot]

The anti right to repair movement found a new front

[jagged spoke]

Well reason is that they cannot send anything now is they don’t actually have any OC edition and their warehouse made mistake sending me wrong card

[unreal thorn]

The fuck

[coarse comet]

its a dust cavern aswell apperantly the dust is fine and dosent change anything my thermals are into space XD

[unreal thorn]

The best solution in that case is probably a partial refund, you can just oc it yourself

Ask them to pay you back the difference between the oc and non oc

I think that's fair to both sides and then you don't have to wait extra time

[jagged spoke]

As day before I spoken with them and guy form OC UK told me you will get your GPU in January when we have restock

[hollow zealot]

Youch

[unreal thorn]

Fuck that, see if they can pay you back the difference instead

[jagged spoke]

I said okay I can wait as I will be on holidays a board

[unreal thorn]

it's a 4080, it's already overkill, you'll still be happy with it

[jagged spoke]

That is only why I accepted to wait

[unreal thorn]

And you can oc it yourself

[hollow zealot]

Depends on use case

[unreal thorn]

Yes but anybody who that doesn't apply to will know right away that that doesn't apply to them

[jagged spoke]

Is overkill for my 1440p 165hz g-sync monitor 27inch IPS

[unreal thorn]

Yes but it's AWESOME

[hollow zealot]

Not if you're playing star citizen

[coarse comet]

there buying my a new desk also with no room for the pc on it so i have to lay it sideways on the carpet idk how its still alive XD

[candid terrace]

im gonna buy a 3070 tomorrow probably

[unreal thorn]

I really hope you manage to!

Just make sure you aren't overpaying

Prices are higher now but should calm down after the holidays

[hollow zealot]

I'm hoping to suck as much life out of my current machine as I can
That way I can buy neat things down the line

[coarse comet]

my pc has to last 7 more years its been here 2 but it gets 0 maintinence and its dying fast

[unreal thorn]

I pretty much do the same thing. I don't upgrade my hardware until I scoff at it. That's why I'm still using a 6 year old SATA ssd

[hearty spear]

Buying 2 good mid-tier systems gets way more usable life than one really high end system will

[jagged spoke]

I have posted some photos of GPU in #screenshots

Tomorrow collection of my this non OC GPU and I will get back from a board on 6th Jan I will get my OC variant, as I’m priority list for this mistake they have made :p

[hollow zealot]

Mid tier keeps getting better and better
My hope is that future mid tier will be enough for something like a 4k OLED at 240hz
But this is far future lol

[unreal thorn]

You'd better be!!!

Ping me when it arrives, it will make my day

[candid terrace]

yeah thanks

[jagged spoke]

@unreal thorn no probs brother will do

[hearty spear]

Eventually yes, but not for probably 3-4 years?

[unreal thorn]

Hopefully I'll have my 3080 by then!

[jagged spoke]

I will post screens of my pc

[hollow zealot]

Well
I'd be very sad if my current machine doesn't last that long

[jagged spoke]

I had my beautiful new 3090 FTW3 Ultra V2 black edition

[candid terrace]

How much should i pay for it

[hollow zealot]

Especially the stupid decision I made in buying a 12700k

[unreal thorn]

Why are you upgrading?

[jagged spoke]

I bought it like 2 months ago for 1200£

[unreal thorn]

around MSRP

[coarse comet]

mine needs to do 9 years and it gets 0 maintincece, 0 airflow and lives on the carpet

[hearty spear]

I'm thinking that next year I'll be upgrading my 1080. Maybe a 4070 or 7700 xt or something

[jagged spoke]

Cus could not get MSFS above 30-40fps @4k

[candid terrace]

i found it for 500 pound which is basically MSRP

[hearty spear]

Nothing gets good fps in msfs

[unreal thorn]

You can very likely resell it to get back most of the cost of your 4080

The market is hot for sellers right now

[hollow zealot]

If I were in that position I'd snag a 7700 xt 👀
I'm looking forward to seeing how absurdly good AMD's drivers make their next gen

[unreal thorn]

the fact that it's 2 months old is very good for you as a seller

[jagged spoke]

I sold it for 900£ and put that in to 4080

[unreal thorn]

Hell yes

[jagged spoke]

I really could even buy 4090 the rock game

[coarse comet]

i have a prebuilt

[unreal thorn]

So you only really paid like 400 to upgrade

[unreal thorn]

you might as well in my opinion if it's not too late

[jagged spoke]

But really 4090 to much for my cpu

[hearty spear]

I'm stocking up on Newegg rewards at work, and expect to get it nearly free

[candid terrace]

What cpu

[jagged spoke]

I tell you all my system spec

[unreal thorn]

nevermind you might not as well

[coarse comet]

stan what country in uk are you in?

[unreal thorn]

it's like a thousand dollars more

I was thinking $200 more because I'm not used to computer parts being insane

[west sentinel]

"country in UK"

[coarse comet]

yeah whats the problem?

[west sentinel]

do you mean country in Europe or City in UK?

[unreal thorn]

_The United Kingdom

The 'United Kingdom' refers to a political union between, England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Although the UK is a fully independent sovereign state, the 4 nations that make it up are also countries in their own right and have a certain extent of autonomy._

[coarse comet]

uk has countries in it

[coarse comet]

.

[west sentinel]

what

[candid terrace]

lmao...

[west sentinel]

how

[unreal thorn]

Are you an American?

[coarse comet]

uk isnt a country lol

[west sentinel]

yes

[candid terrace]

United Kingdom is England, Wales, Scotland etc...

[west sentinel]

the land of terror

[unreal thorn]

then I don't blame you. Our education system only cares about America

[coarse comet]

im from scotland and i would never accociate myself with england or wales no offence to them

[unreal thorn]

And then people think Americans are stupid but I blame the schools

[west sentinel]

And politics

[unreal thorn]

American politics, because we're the center of the universe, apparently

[hollow zealot]

Don't go too deep into this conversation

[coarse comet]

we only learn about invading america here lol

[west sentinel]

everyone whose administrate the entire American schools are fascist

[unreal thorn]

whoah buddy what do you mean

[hearty spear]

England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, four little puppy dogs without tails

[hearty spear]

Lolwut

[coarse comet]

england and wales

ireland , na , isle of man and scotland are on top

[west sentinel]

I feel like there's something wrong with it's equality, equity and the environment of the outcome which people came as not being able to graduate for higher majors

[unreal thorn]

He edited the message multiple times but it's still confusing lol

[west sentinel]

I hate android

[unreal thorn]

You type like you ARE an android (robot)

[coarse comet]

american history is weird af tho in america you learn about just american history

[west sentinel]

[hearty spear]

Yes. You can judge a person's chance of college by the zip code they live in

[hearty spear]

And not even real American history

[coarse comet]

stan must have like a server or something he been typing for 10 minutes

[unreal thorn]

Let's be careful not to get too much into politics

[polar steeple]

Wait we have other androids in here?

[gilded quest]

android is the best

[coarse comet]

i know independance day aint about kicking indians out bro like they celebrate its about britain leaving

[unreal thorn]

I like android because it's not apple

[west sentinel]

you mean open source?

[polar steeple]

I wanna know more about what Luke said the other day about how we are basically already cyborgs because of our relationship with smartphones

[unreal thorn]

No, I mean not apple

becuase fuck apple

[unreal thorn]

By that logic I would be a linux user but I use windows

[jagged spoke]

We’ll monitor is MSI IPS painel 27inch 1440p 165hz G-sync

[polar steeple]

AOSP is open source but ain't nobody running AOSP

[west sentinel]

isn't Linux used for programming commonly

[hearty spear]

You have odd language comprehension

[hearty spear]

No

[polar steeple]

Oh no we are back at the Linux again

[west sentinel]

I don't know what the fuck is wrong with me

[coarse comet]

english aint even my first language and i speak it better

[unreal thorn]

Is it that it's better for programming, or is it that programmers are more likely to use and understand linux?

[polar steeple]

No you don't

[coarse comet]

sorry i mean american idk what you learn

[hearty spear]

There are doctors to help with that

[west sentinel]

both

[jagged spoke]

@candid terrace

[hearty spear]

Neither

[hollow zealot]

I can't wait to build a furnace out of 6 4090s when I need to replace my current furnace

[unreal thorn]

The question was mostly rhetorical. I was making a point that correlation is not the same as causation

[polar steeple]

A new furnace would be cheaper 🤔

[hearty spear]

You don't code in Linux.

You code in an IDE. Integrated Development Environment.

[unreal thorn]

I had a reason to make that point but I don't remember what it was

[hollow zealot]

A new furnace can cost between 5-10k
So yeah, maybe a bit

[coarse comet]

my pc cant even run 2 tabs lol

[unreal thorn]

JuSt BuY A NEw OnE

[polar steeple]

Yeah isn't street price on a 4090 like $1500 ISD

Usd

[coarse comet]

with what money

[hollow zealot]

Furnaces generaly pump out about 120 F or 48 C
Which is pretty insane to think about
Your average GPU sits at over 60C

[unreal thorn]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpQQohcHk9Q

[jagged spoke]

Is anyone interested here are my pc spec it’s only reason why I did not go for 4090 as 100£ more I could get 4090 rock gaming card wish is priced here 1660£ something like that

[coarse comet]

lol

cant even buy a pc in person in scotland here we just invented fire

[polar steeple]

I mean yeah if you have the money and the computing needs you could unironically consider heating your house with a few GPUs

[candid terrace]

11900k is enough for a 4090

[polar steeple]

I feel like multiple 4090s would pull more wattage than a furnace but I'm not an HVAC guy

[willow plover]

I went to your website and it doesn't says when it's going to be finish maintenance

[unreal thorn]

if I don't take a shower I can smell myself

[coarse comet]

my pc runs at 130oC im chilling during winter

[unreal thorn]

130c wtf

[polar steeple]

I sure hope not

[coarse comet]

it does lmao

[jagged spoke]

Dno for 4K would be probably ok but my monitor already was expensive so for moment I will stick to 1440p @glossy hemlock5hz

[unreal thorn]

Then you should turn it off immediately

What is wrong with you

[polar steeple]

130C is running into melting component territory

[hearty spear]

Does not, cuz it'd be dead

[jagged spoke]

Once I get new monitor for 4K-8k then yha will go for 4090 or then 5090

[unreal thorn]

You shouldn't even be running at 90c

[coarse comet]

does sometimes but usually around 90 c

[unreal thorn]

You can run at 90c but you shouldn't

[hollow zealot]

I am standing in front of a heat pump that has electric heat strips as auxiliary heat
Each strip pulls about 20 amps and runs off of 240 V
Do some quick math, that's 4800 Watts for these strips to run under full load

[worthy shadow]

unlikely, i'm in a warm climate and our furnace still has to be on a 60a 220 breaker

[coarse comet]

i cant not lol

[gilded quest]

[unreal thorn]

are you using a laptop?

[gilded quest]

everything leads back to linux

[coarse comet]

no

[unreal thorn]

then I hate to say things like this but just buy a new cooler

[jagged spoke]

My new 2month old 3090 FTW3 was running in MSFS 70c on GPU and on Memory junction was 84c

[coarse comet]

cant thats the problem i have lol

[unreal thorn]

unless you like the idea of not having a computer anymore

[hearty spear]

Apparently Linux is now a Development Environment?

[candid terrace]

you could do 1440p on it but its most suited to 4k gaming tbh

[coarse comet]

i like pc

[unreal thorn]

Either buy a new cooler or stop using the computer until you can, you're killing it.

[hollow zealot]

These electric strip heaters + their blower require 2 60A breakers btw

[polar steeple]

There ya go the question is answered

[coarse comet]

its been running at 90 for 2 years now

[gilded quest]

lol

[unreal thorn]

If you can't afford a cooler now you won't be able to replace the cpu when you kill it by running it like an idiot

[coarse comet]

durable i bought it in russia

[graceful burrow]

it's fine at 90

[polar steeple]

It's been throttling at 90 for 2 years now*

[graceful burrow]

just dont go over

[unreal thorn]

It's fine but it's not advisable

[unreal thorn]

They go to 130c, according to them

[graceful burrow]

they dont
the pc would thermal shutdown if it did

[unreal thorn]

This

[graceful burrow]

unless it's really old

[coarse comet]

yeah if i run gta it jumps between 100 and 130

[unreal thorn]

That's why I threw in the according to them

[coarse comet]

and shuts off

[graceful burrow]

what are you using to check temps

[polar steeple]

Those would be gpu junction temps

[unreal thorn]

Don't play anything until you can replace the cooler.

[coarse comet]

speccy

[graceful burrow]

literally top 3 worst things to check system info with

[coarse comet]

cant ever replace the cooler thats why i play it

[graceful burrow]

use hwinfo64 and get back to me

[unreal thorn]

90c is the maximum temperature I'd advise, and 100 is the absolute highest before you start to break shit

Your cpu is probably already damaged.

[graceful burrow]

what cpu is it

[polar steeple]

I need to see this pc

[coarse comet]

amd ryzen 3 3200g

[graceful burrow]

speccy probably doesnt account for the 30 degree offset lmao

use hwinfo64 im not joking
speccy is genuinely trash

[unreal thorn]

And you're disgracing it with those temperatures?

[polar steeple]

What grace did a 3200g have in the first place tho

[coarse comet]

its in a bad place but nowhere to put it

[unreal thorn]

It's a $100 cpu it can't be that bad

[worthy shadow]

did you not use thermal paste?

[unreal thorn]

budget builds are in fact a thing that people make

[polar steeple]

There's a lot better CPUs available for $100

[coarse comet]

its prebuilt

its never cleaned either lots of dust

[polar steeple]

Okay well

[graceful burrow]

i'm willing to bet it's the temperature offset that isnt being applied in speccy

[polar steeple]

I get being broke I've been there but cleaning is free

[coarse comet]

not allowed to clean it

[unreal thorn]

Clean it anyway

[polar steeple]

Bro lives in a prison

[coarse comet]

i am not allowed to clean it

[unreal thorn]

Doesn't matter

clean it anyway

[coarse comet]

they will see its clean and then throw it out

[unreal thorn]

Why do they want your pc to be dirty

Are they all there, like in the head?

[coarse comet]

they dont want me to touch it or anything incase i break it becuase its expensive

[polar steeple]

I am guessing that OP isn't supposed to be using it at all and is doing so in secret

[unreal thorn]

Because it won't break with the dust?!

[polar steeple]

But

[unreal thorn]

You're trolling.

[coarse comet]

no its my pc in my room but its a gift and im not allowed to touch it incase i break it

[unreal thorn]

Bullshit. You're trolling.

[polar steeple]

...

[coarse comet]

i send photo of pc in screenshot

[polar steeple]

Bro is locked up in a dungeon with his pc and he gets a finger chopped off if he tries to clean it

[unreal thorn]

You're either trolling or your parents need to be punched in the face

[polar steeple]

Rough life

[rugged mirage]

hey uh, does anyone know where I could put a question related to my OS?

[unreal thorn]

Because I highly doubt your parents are making sure yes the pc is still dusty good boy

[polar steeple]

Why is it in your room if you aren't supposed to touch it

[gilded quest]

good luck

[coarse comet]

becuase they think ill break it if i mess with anything

[unreal thorn]

because they're trolling.

[unreal thorn]

So you're telling me your parents inspect your computer to make sure it still has dust in it?

[polar steeple]

You can "break it" doing stuff within the OS but they're okay with that, but not a dusting?

[unreal thorn]

I don't believe them anymore.

[gilded quest]

does it have a chassis intrusion sensor?

[graceful burrow]

not without knowing what the question is

[coarse comet]

dont know

[polar steeple]

Bro got a LoJack on his side panel

[unreal thorn]

If the parents know what a chassis intrusion sensor is they know pcs need to be dusted.

[coarse comet]

they check the dust to see if i opoend it becuase the dust would be gone

[unreal thorn]

bs

[polar steeple]

Bruh

[gilded quest]

i just am not sure why you can't open the pc

[graceful burrow]

you call him a troll and then still take the bait
you're really bad at this

[paper dawn]

Anyone here with an 4080 or 4090 i can speak to?

[gilded quest]

how would they know

[coarse comet]

im not a troll

[hearty spear]

Bs lol

[unreal thorn]

Why would I care about being good at that

[hearty spear]

I don't buy it

[polar steeple]

Well, what else is going on in here right now? This is genuinely entertaining

[unreal thorn]

I'm not a moderator, I don't have to be trained in dealing with trolls

[graceful burrow]

you're right you're not very good at a lot of things around here my bad for assuming

[coarse comet]

my parents just really dont want me to break it or something or break the glass when i open it

[unreal thorn]

It's okay I forgive you sweetie

[coarse comet]

i sent photo of it in screenshots

[rugged mirage]

basically, I tried installing some update yesterday and that somehow turned into an endless loop of blue screens, I fixed the blue screens but now when I click the power off options (sleep, shut down, restart) it says: sleep, update and shut down, update and restart. the problem is when I click one of the options to update and ... it doesn't update it just shuts down/restarts.

[graceful burrow]

i'd make a post in #1027757333117415424

[west sentinel]

CNN news

[rugged mirage]

okay, thank you

[hollow zealot]

I did the math
To match the average electric strip heat used as auxiliary heat in a heat pump, you'd need 30 4090s at full load, pumping out an insane 50,000 BTUs

Fml

[unreal thorn]

Your pc is fine. I'm sorry for accusing you of trolling. I thought the thing was suffocating

I can believe that your parents would be fine with that amount of dust

[polar steeple]

But did you do the monster math

[coarse comet]

they say the dust is just part of the air

[unreal thorn]

It is

[coarse comet]

i cleaned one fan once and they smacked me and stole my keyboard

[coarse comet]

bare in mind i bought the whole setup exept the pc so they cant really take it

[unreal thorn]

CPS would like to have a word with you

[coarse comet]

i call the child services but its legal to beat kid here

[unreal thorn]

Not that.

[polar steeple]

He lives in Scotland

[unreal thorn]

I bet it's an iceberg situation

[coarse comet]

and becuase i even have a pc and playstation they say my life is fine

[polar steeple]

I mean, it is. Could be a whole lot worse

[unreal thorn]

If they're punishing you for cleaning dust off of a fan I doubt they're stable people at all

[coarse comet]

can i tell my backstory it makes you guys underatand better

[unreal thorn]

I'm not saying it's the fan thing that makes them unstable. I'm saying it's a clear sign that they're psychotic

[polar steeple]

I think it's hilarious that they open your PC to check for dust but then don't clean it themselves or allow you to clean it once they open it

Just truly bizarre

[unreal thorn]

If wood is charred you know it was on fire at one point

If your parents smack you for cleaning dust off of a fan you know they aren't normal people and need to be in a mental hospital

A pc YOU bought

[polar steeple]

Wouldn't go that far

Plenty of people would be a lot better off if they got smacked around a little growing up

[unreal thorn]

Fair point. But something is obviously very wrong with boundaries and discipline.

[mental fable]

does linus still own the taycan? i heard somewhere he got a chevy volt insted

[unreal thorn]

I get more cynical when I'm angry

[polar steeple]

I mean for all you know OP is a hellion that is always getting in trouble for stuff related to the PC

All you're getting is one side of the story over the internet

[coarse comet]

my mother was abused by my dad before i was born and ya know non consentually done then i was born she loved me then i grew till about four she met my current step dad it was okay until about 7 then my mum said i looked like my dad and started crying hated me for ages then in 2018 my sister was born with step dad as dad then they just hate me and dont want to see me thats why i think they want the pc to die

[unreal thorn]

That's another fair point

[hollow zealot]

[unreal thorn]

See

Where there's smoke, there's often fire

[coarse comet]

yes

but when i have kids i treat them well regardless and clean the pc for them haha

[unreal thorn]

I'm sorry I was such a dick to you, it's just a bizzar story and I shouldn't have been so cynical

[polar steeple]

I doubt very much that your mother and step dad hate you but if you feel that way you should probably talk to them about it

[coarse comet]

they dont talk to me

they do hate me my mum hates me becuase i look like my dad and step dad hates me becuase im just tag along with mother they always tell me they hate me

[polar steeple]

Your mother and step dad explicitly use the phrase "I hate you" directly to your face? Or are you assuming their intentions and thoughts based on other interactions?

[coarse comet]

no problem man used to it by now XD

[coarse comet]

sometimes directly

[polar steeple]

I mean I don't have anything to go off of other than your word so it is what it is but that's very strange behavior that would not even be explainable with context. I know it happens sometimes but it's pretty rare. How old are you?

[coarse comet]

14

they shout at me for not being like the other kids bare in mind im in scotland and the other kids are drunk and on drugs

[polar steeple]

I mean there's some things not adding up here but I'm not going to beleaguer this. I'm sorry that, ostensibly, your parents hate or dislike you and I hope your situation gets better

[coarse comet]

its ok

i move out in 2 years anyway

[polar steeple]

And I'll also say. A lot of parents end up hating their kids when they're teenagers

[coarse comet]

yes

[polar steeple]

That wouldn't explain why his birth mother would raise him and start hating him now. Even if her reasoning is that he looks like his dad, that's a stupid fucking reason and ignores so much important context

[coarse comet]

im moving out at 16 becuase they want to charge me £500 for rent when im 16 and here a house is like £400 to rent lol

[polar steeple]

I'm not going to get into a pissing match about it but the villain in this context would be his mother, not the men around her

[coarse comet]

she has very bad ptsd from him she gets scared when i come near her im 5,4

[polar steeple]

I'm kinda confused though

Like

[unreal thorn]

We are dropping it

[coarse comet]

bro deleted half an hours worth

[polar steeple]

How much discussion can there be about a YouTube channel that posts 1 video a day max?

[coarse comet]

w channel

[unreal thorn]

I don't think that's the real issue

The real issue is that we were discussing fighting people which can be considered nsfw

[coarse comet]

isnt it like 3-7 a day if you count all the channels

[polar steeple]

LMG has several channels, LTT is one channel

[unreal thorn]

It's just a convenient reason to step in which I don't blame them for

[coarse comet]

i only watch ltt and short circuit

[polar steeple]

Techlinked is good

[unreal thorn]

I've been binging the WAN show at work

It keeps me from getting bored while I do whatever my boss told me to do

[polar steeple]

Since we are talking about it

I don't understand the distinction between LTT and ShortCircuit

[hollow zealot]

I drive ~100-150 miles a day and the wan show is a godsend
I always listen to the whole thing the Monday after it airs

[unreal thorn]

Short circuit is an ltt spinoff

It's like YouTube shorts to YouTube

SHORT circuit

Quick topics

[polar steeple]

Right but everything that short circuit posts would fit just as good on LTT

[coarse comet]

my day is usually wake up shower etc get dressed go to apprentiship while im there i will listen to the latest wan show if its out if not i listen to music ususally the same song on repeat lol then i go home watch ltt for an hour go to gym for 1 hour then come back play games and watch ltt lol

[hollow zealot]

Regular ol residential HVAC tech
I drive a lot because the area I cover is pretty large due to the nature of my company

[unreal thorn]

Mod: please only talk about ltt here
Chat: actually starts talking about ltt

That's a new one

[coarse comet]

i have like chores and stuff obviously ontop of that

[hollow zealot]

4 or 5 is a normal day

[polar steeple]

Jibus where you live? Urban area?

[coarse comet]

My pc just randomly started updating I checked my updates 2 hours ago and there was none

[polar steeple]

Ah okay. When you get out into rural areas places can be 30-40 miles apart

[hollow zealot]

Here's since about February on a map

[polar steeple]

I am in sales though and I have done the whole 150 mile a day round trip commuting and it sucksssss

[unreal thorn]

My hair dryer is missing 😠

I can't stand being wet, not even wet hair

[polar steeple]

We can see you live in WA lux Mt Ranier state park is right there haha

[hollow zealot]

Well yeah I just don't want to show cust house addresses

[polar steeple]

I'm gonna sneak in and fuck with their HVAC

[unreal thorn]

WFH would be depressing for me

[polar steeple]

You done messed up a-aron

[unreal thorn]

I'd end up rotting in a pile of filth

I need to have to go do things

[polar steeple]

WFH lonely as hell

[unreal thorn]

Self-discipline I don't have

[polar steeple]

I took a $15k pay cut to go back to a job where I wasn't WFH all the time

[unreal thorn]

It's hard to even make myself show up to work on time

[hollow zealot]

I mean the drive is really not the worst part of the job
I'm basically being paid to listen to/watch LTT for half my workday

[unreal thorn]

I bike because it's more convenient

[hollow zealot]

The only downside to working away from home all day is that I spend 10 hours at work and then don't have time to play with my PC at all when I get home

[polar steeple]

To each their own of course. For me, WFH with my only interaction being phone or virtual was depressing af

[unreal thorn]

I don't have to control a big flammable steel box in a grid of flammable steel boxes

I can just go and slip between things and cut across streets

[hollow zealot]

I leave at 7 am and get home between 5 and 7 pm most days
That leaves me time to eat, shower, and sleep

It's annoying :'

[polar steeple]

Cut back on sleep

Humans only need 4 hours of sleep. Everything else is a lie pushed by Big Mattress

[unreal thorn]

The only things that would make me not ride my bike are probably the same things that would make you not drive your car

[silver sandal]

🫣

[unreal thorn]

Like, an ice tornado

[polar steeple]

Is only somewhat tongue in cheek. Some people are genetically predisposed to only sleeping a few hours a night. I am one of them

[unreal thorn]

I'm not exaggerating, it would have to be some kind of natural disaster

I find that a coat, gloves, and boots will protect me against pretty much any weather one would find bothersome

Snow pants sometimes

And the coat has to be thin because even with my thin coat I always have to unzip it

[granite finch]

racist

[polar steeple]

Nah man nah ill stick with the heater in my truck

[unreal thorn]

Aww thank you

I'm honored

[polar steeple]

Also like, calling cars "steel flammable boxes" is like calling an electric pole "a lightning rod with more lightning inside of it". Technically true, practically completely untrue though

[hollow zealot]

Gee maybe I should get my company to let me drive a Tesla so I can run steamOS and have game time at work

[polar steeple]

Cars catching fire is a pretty rare occurrence and an easily avoided one at that

[unreal thorn]

Pretty much yeah

A lightning rod with more lightning inside of it

[polar steeple]

Ha it's funny because a tesla has no cylinders

[hollow zealot]

My van unfortunately has only 4 of those :)

[unreal thorn]

I know I'm not supposed to agree with that statement but I do

[hollow zealot]

Sometimes lmao

[polar steeple]

I'm guessing it's a Ford transit or Chevy city connect?

[hollow zealot]

It's a ford transit connect, but the cheap one

[polar steeple]

Bro they got you in the base model noooo

[hollow zealot]

And they want me to use Ecoboost "as much as possible"

So it's more like driving with 2 cylinders

[polar steeple]

I used to deliver packages for DHL and I would always get there early to get the Ford Transit because it had an AUX input and it was the only van we had that did

[unreal thorn]

Ford transit dream car

So useful

[hollow zealot]

I would love LTT to review something like this van
Would be neat to see their opinion on something like this compared to their usual vehicles

[polar steeple]

Mkhb reviews cars

AutoFocus

[hollow zealot]

I can name one upside of this compared to that monstrous SUV they reviewed last

[polar steeple]

Also LTT reviews cars sometimes

[hollow zealot]

What was huge SUV they reviewed last

[polar steeple]

What's his face. The blonde guy that works in the shop. He's the one that does them

[hollow zealot]

The only thing I remember them saying is that you could stand like 20 kids in front of it and the driver wouldn't be able to see any of them

Which is honestly a bit scary for such a cumbersome vehicle

[polar steeple]

Did anyone else watch the video MKHB did yesterday where he demo'd the Tesla self driving beta?

It was actually really impressive

Yes

They were supposed to deploy self driving tech to their highest end vehicles last year but haven't yet afaik

[hollow zealot]

My dad hates Ford
He likes the acronym for them
"Found on road dead"

My dad has been around for a long while lol

[polar steeple]

The F150 lightning is sick though

[hollow zealot]

Something something road damage

[polar steeple]

Elaborate?

Are you saying they damage roads cause they're heavy?

[hollow zealot]

Just a common complaint I hear about big EVs
People think their weight should warrant additional tax because they damage the road

I personally have no idea whether or not they do

[dusky patrol]

APPARENTLY they added steam to tesla

[polar steeple]

They are quite heavy

[hollow zealot]

I know that semis do damage roads over time

[polar steeple]

3.5 tons lol

[hollow zealot]

And this is also something I'd love to see LMG review

[polar steeple]

There's a lot of videos out about them right now

I've even seen them taken off road

Surprisingly capable for such a heavy vehicle

The thing I think is pretty sweet

Is okay it's a truck so you have a truck bed that's all well and good

But you also have the hood space to be used as storage because EV

[hollow zealot]

Driving on roads that have had heavy vehicle traffic is kinda wacky

[polar steeple]

Believe me brother I know. I live in Louisiana. We have a lot of heavy vehicle traffic and poor infrastructure to begin with

[hollow zealot]

Some parts of I-90 Westbound in Washington have deep enough groves left behind from such long usage by semis that you don't even have to steer

LTTStore.com Lanyard makes an appearance

[polar steeple]

We have potholes on interstate 20 here that will literally make your teeth chatter

How does he post pics in this server 😳

[hollow zealot]

A benefit of being a floatplane pilot

[polar steeple]

Blahhhhh floatplane

[hollow zealot]

Funny thing about FP

I generally watch LMG videos on YouTube because I have premium temporarily for free
And I barely actually use FP

Iirc they make money if premium users watch? So I'm down to help out

[polar steeple]

No disrespect to LMG because I love them but floatplane has no value add for me

[fossil frost]

then dont pay for it, its simple...

[hollow zealot]

I just enjoy the exclusives

[polar steeple]

They keep releasing all the content I want to see on YouTube for free so I'm happy to enjoy the free freeness and watch the ads

[polar steeple]

Why you trying to stifle the discussion out of the blue bro? Chill

[hollow zealot]

No issue there

[polar steeple]

Anyway who else is on floatplane? Like what other creators

[hollow zealot]

Let me see if it's chill to send a list

[half summit]

I really hate this S20

one time you do a system reboot and wifi works then the wifi after.

[polar steeple]

Like...the Samsung phone?

[half summit]

Yea the Samsung Phone lol

[polar steeple]

I have to reboot my phone all the time to get it to connect to cellular data...it's an s22 plus

This phone is mediocre as fuck

[half summit]

I'm so stressed out because it's not like the oldschool samsungs where you could dismantle it yourself to fix it

[polar steeple]

I dunno if disassembling is gonna help you fix your wifi problem lol

What version of android are you on

[half summit]

13 or the newest one

The thing is its probably afaulty board or water damaged (A hand me down from my dad, but not really since he messed it up and gave me the bad phone)

[wicked osprey]

can i post my system with the color just sitting on the cpu not actually mounted?

[half summit]

#tech-chat-1

[wicked osprey]

I’m waiting for a bracket to come in for Germany and want to test the you

Oops my

[half summit]

All good.

[uneven orbit]

anyone running Intel Arc? curious about how much better its gotten with driver updates

[manic gull]

Anyone here have experience with MPT?

[dreamy otter]

If anyone has t-mobile here, they're giving out a free phone line (if you have 2+ lines). Just gotta pay the activation fee.

[dull violet]

Whar

[small zephyr]

xD windows 11 seems to just straight dislike my pc

secure boot and tpm 2.0 is active but still screams at me that i must activate secure boot

[gilded quest]

Maybe try clearing secure boot keys?

[small zephyr]

how do i do that xd

[gilded quest]

Read your BIOS manual

[small zephyr]

🤔 im totally top on the hardware lvl but software lvl always just straight out confuses me

the weird thing is that the windows tool says tpm.20 is active and stuff\

[hearty spear]

which MPT?

[gilded quest]

That's what the manual is for

[hearty spear]

What's a manual?

[gilded quest]

The thing most people throw away before building a pc

[vapid smelt]

the random piece of trash the mbo comes with

[gilded quest]

I love it when they give us a coaster

[glossy hemlock]

Th why ping me

[vapid smelt]

why have a dumb name that someone might ping

[twin raptor]

Why be dumb

[glossy hemlock]

Bruuuuu

[vapid smelt]

dont have a name thats numbers or government agencies such as FBI and cia

[hearty spear]

@glossy hemlock5hz is something that'll get typed, so you're setting yourself up for pings

[quasi fjord]

Just built a new pc, have windows 11 pro but just need a key. Any cheap options that aren't a scam?

[mint yacht]

Nope

[manic torrent]

none of the cheap options are strictly compliant with the license terms - and therefore, aren't actually licenses as such. They will make the watermark go away though.

[gilded quest]

Imma just say it

If you need windows pro you can probably afford a key

Or just use it with the watermark (might have to downgrade to Home edition?)

[manic gull]

More power tool?

[hearty spear]

Microsoft.com

We cannot recommend grey market sites on this discord.

[glossy hemlock]

Don t you have to @ to ping so why lol

[lilac sage]

steal it from a laptop i na retail store

[hearty spear]

Fun fact: I didn't actually ping you. It did that on its own.

[manic torrent]

yes. 1080p @glossy hemlock5hz

[fossil frost]

writing some resolution @ some sort of mhz value is very common in here

[lilac sage]

buy the laptop

take the key

return the laptop

[quasi fjord]

I just used a script, I got it nvm

Hacker man

[lilac sage]

im pretty sure you need to set the script to always run on boot

I could be mistaken

[fossil frost]

every 6 months

[gilded quest]

Dam you're dangerous

[lilac sage]

ah ok

6 months isnt bad

[dull granite]

dumbest thing ever is buying a windows key from shady websites

[gilded quest]

Just pay $50k for university instead and get free keys through them

[fossil frost]

i think i got a windows vista pro key on a laptop about... 300 years ago... and ive just been given a free upgrade to the key ever since then

[dull granite]

you could just pirate it at this point

[vapid smelt]

no need to pirate microsoft lets you download it for free

[vapid smelt]

damn*

[gilded quest]

🦫

[glossy hemlock]

Fuckkkkkkkk

[gilded quest]

Lol

[vapid smelt]

@glossy hemlock0mph @glossy hemlock00mhz

[dull granite]

stop pinging them

[stray adder]

Guys look at my bio

[vapid smelt]

no

[fossil frost]

no

[fossil frost]

beat me to it, couldnt get to the keyboard fast enough

[stray adder]

I linked lttstore.com 😁

Not like it'll do anything

But funny.

[dull granite]

don't care

[fossil frost]

one sec... just need to find a fuck that i am able to give for that...

[dull granite]

also promoting own discord servers

[fossil frost]

still looking...

noope... cant find one

[stray adder]

Not my intention

[lilac sage]

how can we tell

[vapid smelt]

[stray adder]

That's the fun part you don't

[lilac sage]

then whats the point of saying that

[vapid smelt]

we could at the mods and have them decide

[stray adder]

Good idea

[supple topaz]

Did anyone else low key look at their bio 😂

[fossil frost]

no

[stray adder]

Ofc not
Nobody does like any sane person

[vapid smelt]

why would i want to look at a Childs bio

[stray adder]

So you did tho

[supple topaz]

Bored at work vibes

[vapid smelt]

i didnt tho

[stray adder]

Why would you know I'm a child then

Might aswell be bored as hell at 21

[vapid smelt]

what adult would want attention for putting lttstore.com in their bio

[stray adder]

Fair point

[small zephyr]

Urgh I hate win10 sometimes... That stupid update that annoyed the crap out of me by throwing my PC out of sleep mode now keeps my PC from restarting it after doing the update

🤨 I kinda like win 10 tho compared to 8 it's world's better but dang all these stupid driver issues they always have for example

[stray adder]

I've had it so many times when windows needs to update my performance goes down do like 3-4 FPS for no reason

[small zephyr]

When I was forced to use wifi I needed to type ipconfig /renew every 10minutes into CMD or I would have no internet

[stray adder]

That's windows and WiFi for you.
That's why ethernet is just better for desktops you won't move a lot

[gilded quest]

Skill issue

[small zephyr]

🤷‍♂️nah it was just being windows 10

Still I'm a gamer and I don't want to write a doctor in programing to use my PC and game on it

[hollow zealot]

The ticket I just finished today had me in the customer's basement (where his furnace is) and he had a server rack chilling in the corner
I also noticed a pretty large amount of cameras and wifi switches akin to what Linus has

Turns out his rack was only for a couple of network switches and everything else was cloud based
Unfortunate

[small zephyr]

Linux is just not for gaming we are kinda forced to use windows

[hollow zealot]

SteamOS has entered the chat

[small zephyr]

I swear fast booting windows sucks it won't give me enough time to get into recovery mode of windows while boot up

[hollow zealot]

Skill issue

[young bloom]

wow grape

[manic torrent]

This is both true and not true

[vapid smelt]

spam the buttons faster

[young bloom]

windows is my heart and soul

i loyal to microsoft always

[vapid smelt]

damn i guess the steam deck is not for gaming

[small zephyr]

Well from what I see and heard from my friend who owns it installed windows 10 on it since SteamOS works so fine.....

[vapid smelt]

i have yet to infect my deck with windows

[young bloom]

what infect

cure*

[small zephyr]

Urgh windows come on do I needa push the hard reset button every time to restart now since you literally need to prepare for hours to shut down?

[young bloom]

which one

11?

[supple topaz]

Is your pc ok? Lol ive never had to wait hours for anything 😦

[small zephyr]

Urgh and now it's fucking updated g again

I don't know windows is being a massive diva right now I think my PC needs a snickers or something

[supple topaz]

Are you running really old hardware?

Old Hdd maybe dying?

[small zephyr]

Nope ryzen 5 1600af

[vapid smelt]

i mean that is old

[small zephyr]

It came out like 2-3 years ago

It came kinda with the 3600 or maybe later it was AMD's like basically r5 2600 labeled as 1600af and sold for 99bucks

[supple topaz]

What’s your storage

[young bloom]

same

[small zephyr]

Some sata m.2

🤷‍♂️still pretty fast usually

I trust wester digital

[full fossil]

i trust any brand i throw into my pc 😻

and then complain because my games crash

[supple topaz]

Well branding doesn’t really mean much, depends on how old it is, etc

[full fossil]

my storage isn’t the issue this time around though, just constant D3D device removed

[full fossil]

what game and gpu?

[full fossil]

Basically and game. Warzone, Phas, Roblox, Minecraft, Fortnite, Fall Guys, Deceit, Dbd.
Palit Dual RTX 2070

[small zephyr]

By the way if I convert my drive from MBR to GPT do I loose data?

[full fossil]

i did this once with MBR2GPT and kept my data

[small zephyr]

Let's see how long an 500gb drive will take

Seriously seems like I don't have enough space the console is saying?

I swear today's not my day

[spark wolf]

hey what’s a piracy site you guys recommend?

[fossil frost]

you are not going to last a long time in here 🙂

[small zephyr]

None piracy is not allowed in here

[fossil dirge]

^

We don't talk about pirated content here

[spark wolf]

there are a few gamecube games i really want to play again but i don’t have a job yet cause i just moved

[fossil frost]

your excuse doesnt matter... nobody in here is going to tell you where to go because 1. its against discord TOS. and 2. against LTT server rules

[small zephyr]

Just buy some weird ass 7000in ones game console or something they are always preloaded why ever lol

It's a wonder how these manufactory don't get sued

[fossil frost]

they do

because they pirate all these games, put a load of them on sale, sell out fast. and then run and hide

[small zephyr]

Well seemingly if there's money to make they always do that shit lmao

You know that crappy spanish Netflix series house of money?

[fossil frost]

money heist

[dull granite]

monwy heist

money heist

[small zephyr]

Was kinda hyped and still is hyped in Germany

[dull granite]

it's like quit game

[fossil frost]

its half decent, its very very badly dubbed though

[dull granite]

squit watching netflix game

[small zephyr]

I have an kebab(döner) store near me that's using their masks and stuff in their logos even the name of the store clearly infringes on that series

I swear I needa make a picture of it and send it to Netflix lawyers

[fossil frost]

yeah, a lot of auto centres infringe to fuck on F1 too... there is a national chain in the uk called "F1 Auto Centres", that is in no way associated with formula 1 or the FIA... yet they are fine, because they are legally different enough

[small zephyr]

I hate kebabs most disgusting shit ever alnd all you find nowadays is kebab stores if I can get rid of one I swear I will

🤔I never got sports especially f1

[fossil frost]

you sound super fun, and not at all boring

[small zephyr]

Ist the most boring waste of time I was forced into I swear my mom loved that boring shit

Even soccer is interesting compared to f1 and that's just 22guys running after a ball

TF I have Amazon games installed?

Maybe I should make a clean install lmao I don't even know what I got installed anymore

🤨 I miss the old driver disks times

[jaunty compass]

for legal reasons, none

[small zephyr]

Razer and corsair software are 6gbs just for a mouse and keyboard

[fossil dirge]

Really?

I don't realize that Razer Synapse takes most of the space

[small zephyr]

So fucking anyoing to use one device of em you need to install every single fucking device of em just to use one mouse

[jaunty compass]

it's a good thing i don't own any razer crap

I've heard it was mid anyway, tbh

[fossil dirge]

Yeah but I have no problems using the Razer peripherals on Linux since it works very well

[small zephyr]

Corsair is the same

But corsair is worse I never had any version of icue that didn't cause issues with my dark core pro RGB se

[fossil dirge]

Do you guys recommend Logitech G?

[small zephyr]

I dunno I don't really like logitech

[fossil dirge]

I say Razer peripherals aren't bad

[vapid smelt]

[manic torrent]

G what

Every product is different.

[small zephyr]

They are rarely discounted here and I don't like their keyboards with the exception of the g19

I swear mechanical modern g19 when????

[vapid smelt]

i love Logitech mice

[small zephyr]

I love the mice of em as well but the only ones I would spend money for are garbage

Like if I didn't get my corsair dark core pro RGB se for like 40bucls refurbt I would have never brought it

I just don't pay over 40buckaroos for a mouse

🤔on keyboards I always set like 50bucks aside

[fossil dirge]

I have no problem with Razer peripherals they all work well

[small zephyr]

This time I kinda went went 12bucks over tho but only cuz I ordered other switches

[vapid smelt]

how much is razer giving you to say this

[small zephyr]

Seriously fuck razer

My Nari ultimate is an all plastic with super bad noise canceling like you hear everything that even slightly thouches it with super poor quality plastics with an uvp of 160€

Even their keyboards uses plastics like crazy but not good plastics

[fossil dirge]

Well actually I had my Razer Kraken broken because it wouldn't play audio and I ended having to RMA my headset to Razer

So you're right Razer products aren't really good

[small zephyr]

My 48bucks AliExpress wormir keyboard is using waaay better super high quality plastics for the housing is super moddable and even got great stabilizer combined with an silicon mat under the faceplate to reduce the rattling keys could produce

[small zephyr]

My Nari ultimate is supposed to have to options for audio input like game mode and chat mode so you can use 2 sources with different volume controls concept great yeah I give em that but yeah it doesn't work....

[fossil dirge]

Damn

[small zephyr]

And it's kinda maddening on such an expensive headset that it only got 2,4ghz hyperspeed dongle if an wireless headset is that expensive I kinda expect an Bluetooth mode in it as well to use it on other device wireless... Sticking an cable inside it for my PlayStation or phone is the worst every inch of the cable makes extra noise you can literally hear

[fossil dirge]

I don't know if I would buy another Razer product

I remembered that I wanted to get the Blade but I heard that laptop had quality control issues

So instead I went with the Lenovo Legion

[small zephyr]

🤔Im fucking done with em instead of actually doing high quality product they release fucking metal straws or RGB respirator masks

[vital river]

i have a legion pc, i love it

[fossil dirge]

Same

[small zephyr]

🤔after seeing all that acer and HP nightmares I'm kinda afraid of prebuilds

[fossil dirge]

Luckily I have a custom built PC

But I'm going to upgrade it so I can run Windows 11

[small zephyr]

The acer for example has super weird motherboards where the front usb ports are fused with the motherboard which makes it in such shapes that you can neither reuse the case PSU or motherboard in any other config

[fossil dirge]

I don't buy products from Acer

[small zephyr]

🤨 proprietary PC parts should be illegal since they produced and designed to be thrown away after a couple of years

Since you can't upgrade or move anything from it

Urgh browsing through my PC I'm seeing that I have much of bloatware/malware installed and I don't know how it got on my PC

A second weird windows thing I have windows PC health check literally 2 times installed

[jaunty compass]

nuke the drive

[dreamy rose]

the average joe/jane PC has a crap load of bloatware

[vapid smelt]

thats one thin graphics card

[wary summit]

ikr

I went from RX570 > RX6600 > RX590 SP2048 Chinese mining card

[dreamy rose]

Nvidia fanboy reaction to Single slot

[fossil frost]

or.. its just a basic observation....

[dreamy rose]

(loves 4 slot designs)

[manic torrent]

my nvidia card is single slot....

[dreamy rose]

when was the last time they made a non cheap bullshit shit single slot gpu?

[manic torrent]

I bought it in 2021.

[small zephyr]

this graphics driver disk is a disk that contains drivers for all their devices

[fossil frost]

the single slot ones are the more expensive ones

[small zephyr]

gpu in particular are weird in terms of updates

why does my RX5500xt gets updates that are specifiallz made to improve performance of the 6700xt for example?

[dreamy rose]

for consumers

[fossil frost]

pre water blocked cards are usually single slot

[dreamy rose]

Driver support.

[manic torrent]

oh, actually I have two nvidia single slot cards, because I also have a T400

[small zephyr]

🤨 or why does the 1080ti gets updates for an 4090?

[manic torrent]

.... are you being serious? because it's pretyt obvious.

[dreamy rose]

those really don't count as you have to have a Radiator somewhere else

[small zephyr]

theres no way there anything in theese drivers for that cards like the only positive you would have from this updates would be like nvidia stops anyoing you

🤨 i understand like driver issues for certain games but sometimes when i read the patch logs its literally just stuff for the 6000series

[manic torrent]

drivers support many cards, and often have updates to global systems or specific to OSes/games/etc. This is not rocket surgery. Sure, there are some cases where it may not apply, but ... cry me a river.

[dreamy rose]

Nvidia is a 400 billion dollar company, they will bug you regardless of what you buy

[small zephyr]

🤷‍♂️ drivers nowadays just suck

[manic torrent]

You don't need to install the drivers - you also don't need to run fucking geforce fucking experience

.... drivers always sucked. There is no magical past where they were perfect.

[dreamy rose]

at least AMD doesnt force you into an account

[manic torrent]

neither does nvidia?

[small zephyr]

well at least the drivers in the past were always more taylored to the stuff you brought

[manic torrent]

yeah nah.

not true at all

[small zephyr]

like if you want to use an corsair mouse you have literally 3gb's worth of software and drivers

just to use it properly

[manic torrent]

next you'll be complaining about microsoft giving you updates that apply to things you don't use

[manic torrent]

this is a fair complaint, but unrelated

[dreamy rose]

yes they do. i've had GFE install with my drivers and could never get in because it would never let me make an Account

[hollow zealot]

Or you can plug it in and not worry about rgb and dpi switching

[manic torrent]

GFE is a garbage and you don't have to use it

[small zephyr]

windows updates dont start at that.....

they kinda bricked my pc again

[dreamy rose]

exactly. its just extra shit to be Bogging down your PC

[manic torrent]

sounds like the problem is you

[small zephyr]

🤷‍♂️ windows and drivers yeah nightmare

[livid belfry]

https://www.epicgames.com/site/en-US/news/epic-is-turning-off-online-services-and-servers-for-some-older-games?sessionInvalidated=true

[dreamy rose]

especially useless for people like me

[dreamy rose]

Crapic games

[small zephyr]

i dont know if its windows fault or amds but if i open the windows camera app to configure my webcam my gpu driver literally self destruct

[dreamy rose]

AMD Drivers have come a long way but still arent perfect. that being said. its a literal 75/25 on whats broken here. windows or the drivers

[small zephyr]

🤷‍♂️ or maybe its both who knows

[dreamy rose]

Windows is always broken in its final state so

[small zephyr]

well at least i have lan nowadays and dont have to enter ipconfig /renew every 5 minutes into cmd

[dreamy rose]

[small zephyr]

xD wifi just dont like my windows or something like that

[dreamy rose]

imagine having to code to just use windows. that shits for linux nerds

lolzers linux suckxxxx

[small zephyr]

well i needa shut down my pc to get into recovery to convert to GPT

i mostly use windows cuz my pc is for gaming and dont want to make a docter in IT just to use my pc lol

[dreamy rose]

the Exact Anti linux statements i was just making fun of.

[small zephyr]

😂 jup Linux is just a hassle to use and even through it got better really poor games support

[graceful burrow]

tfw they dont realize you dont have to open the terminal at all to run linux lmao

[graceful burrow]

games support is actually extremely good
not a single game ive tried on my steam deck hasnt worked

[manic torrent]

I used linux and it killed my dog

[dreamy rose]

thats further from the truth than words from people hopeful that the world can be at peace forever

[small zephyr]

If I just try to straight install windows 11 from usb does my PC stop hoping instantly into bios when I try to activate secure boot

[graceful burrow]

it rm -rf /'d his dog

[dreamy rose]

average hater be like

[small zephyr]

How do I know if my windows key is bound to my PC or my account?

[dreamy rose]

you have a Prebuilt with UEFI?

[small zephyr]

Nope selfbuild

[dreamy rose]

probably not tied to your mobo then

[small zephyr]

🤔it's just a decade or something since I brought the key I brought it in Win7 times

[dreamy rose]

i have no clue i'm a BIOS plebian by force

[small zephyr]

So yeah needing to re-enter my windows key if I wipe my data I needa search years of emails

Don't know the seller anymore lol only know that it was some optiplex or something key that got ewasted xD

[jaunty compass]

Are people coping because linux works now

Malding and seething perhaps

[vapid smelt]

all the green people in this chat makes me physically sick

[small zephyr]

🤨Linux gaming may be better nowadays buts it's still knowhere acceptable in my opinion

[dreamy rose]

looks like it

[jaunty compass]

Well excuse me for not paying for floatplane

[small zephyr]

I'm not really into paying to see a bit of extra stuff

[dreamy rose]

you are entitled to an opinion no matter how disgustingly terrible it is

[small zephyr]

It's like extra disks on movies you buy who watches em?

[balmy lotus]

Multiplayer support is still mid

[small zephyr]

Having way more work an inconvenience of Linux where you do like everything with the terminal for less performance while on windows I just need a couple of clicks with better performance in the games if they even run on Linux yeah a no brainer for me

[dreamy rose]

Anticheat can kiss my ass. DRM is defective by design and thats the truth

[jaunty compass]

I second this

I don't buy games with Kernel level anticheat anyway lol

If a game has kernel level anticheat, I don't buy it

[small zephyr]

Programmers always find their way around anti cheats

[dreamy rose]

not all the time. remember GTA 4? yeah that run runs better on linux.

[small zephyr]

Seeing warzone and stuff 🤷‍♂️

GTA 4 sucked in general

[jaunty compass]

If a game has kernel level anticheat I don't buy it or play it, it's as simple as that

[ocean turret]

lol

i think i found it out

[jaunty compass]

I'm not going to buy a game then be fucked by what's basically malware included

It's why I didn't buy elden ring

[dreamy rose]

GTA 4 was an Amazing game. are you a troll?

[ocean turret]

why my laptop screen was flickerz ing at higher h

z

[small zephyr]

Nah GTA San Andreas was the life man

[dreamy rose]

or do you really just have terrible opinions

[small zephyr]

GTA v is okay as well but only cuz it's fun to play online

Gta4 just had to many things that made me furios

Like roman with his fucking do you want bowling calls

[dreamy rose]

the all important hanging out mechanic. yeah. 4 isnt perfect. but fuck mate this game is golden. including the DLCs

[small zephyr]

I suck with touchscreen keyboards lmao and not removable Auto corrections make it worse

The only GTA 4 version I liked was GTA IV BOGT

[dreamy rose]

every one was Good. but TBOGT was the better DLC

TLAD was a bit short for me

[small zephyr]

And compared to San Andreas different areas new York was just to boring

[flat venture]

GTA 4 is still better than GTA the definitive edition.

[small zephyr]

Biker are as boring as pirates at least in most games they are overly stereotyped

Rule number one we don't talk about the definitive edition xD

Too many reasons it failed

[dreamy rose]

we get it. you grew up with San Andreas. SA is great but 4 was the foree into HD, and it did it well.

[dreamy rose]

AHEM War Drum Studios AHEM

[small zephyr]

1. It's based on the mobile version 2. Rockstar didn't make it 3. They never did console or PC games before only mobile games

[dreamy rose]

their rebranding to Grove Street Games is as big as a lie as Epic games,

[small zephyr]

Yeah maybe but maybe it's cuz I don't like big city's in general even in real live I like it if there's change in scenary

[dreamy rose]

far from a good studio. let alone Legendary enough to carry the name of Grove Street

[small zephyr]

Biggest joke bout it like every single graphics improvement mods did better as them

They just had basically to redo some texture on PC well it's more than that but porting an game designed for android phones to consoles and PC no wonder it failed

[dreamy rose]

the biggest joke about War Drum is the fact their ports are so shit that Vadim M made TWO videos talkin about how shit it is

[small zephyr]

Who's dat?

To be true there's only literally one YouTube channel I watch and that's ltt

[dreamy rose]

he talks about GTA Stuff

[polar steeple]

People who trash definitive edition obviously never played it

[wispy marsh]

It's a Friday morning

It means wan show tonight!

[small zephyr]

🤔okay well yeah I don't even really use social medias as well so one could say I know live behind rocks or something

[wispy marsh]

And also, goodnight to my grandma. May we always carry your memory into the future.

[small zephyr]

I played it and that's why I hate it so much

Dude the hands in GTA Trilogie never looked good but definite edition kinda made it nightmare fuel

[polar steeple]

Then you're just being contrarian lol. They fixed most of the major bugs with two patches right after launch lol

[small zephyr]

I rather play the GTA Trilogie games on my phone with crappy touch controll

[polar steeple]

That's stupid as fuck and just tells me you don't know what you're talking about lol

[dreamy rose]

they haven't updated it since what. ages ago

[small zephyr]

I played it not to long ago and I can't really say the graphic improvments and stuff made it any better I just don't like how it plays feels and looks in general

[polar steeple]

Why would they

[wispy marsh]

I like gta:ctw

[polar steeple]

They had some buggy implementations that they fixed

[wispy marsh]

The achievements were grindy but it's fine otherwise

[dreamy rose]

idk. maybe if it was good it would result in more sales

[polar steeple]

The core of the games are still 20+ years old there's nothing to update

[small zephyr]

Some? It almost was cyberpunk level

[polar steeple]

Not even close
