bett

[unkempt nest]

I mean probably lol

[fossil frost]

performance mode is essentially software rendering, its really badly named

[unkempt nest]

Fortnite isn’t that demanding

[fossil frost]

you want DX11 or DX12 depending on your gpu

[granite finch]

but u should get somthing in the 2000 series

[mortal gate]

okay i might go with with a rx 6600 its like under 200 bucks on amazon

[granite finch]

dont do amazon

[mortal gate]

where then

[fossil frost]

i have everything except 1 or 2 settings on max on fortnite and my 6600xt gives me 144fps locked (locked to my 144hz monitor)

[granite finch]

better options

[unkempt nest]

But that’s older than their current card lol. Maybe if they could find one used for a good deal, but I wouldn’t recommend buying a “new” 4 year old card.

[granite finch]

their current card is a 1650 bruh

[mortal gate]

what if i got a 2060

[granite finch]

das what im saying og

[mortal gate]

where would i buy one tho

[granite finch]

newegg

amazon overprices

dont get anything from them

[unkempt nest]

a 4 year old card with less vram 💀

[granite finch]

i got my old gpu from antonline.com.

[granite finch]

8 vram my g

[unkempt nest]

that performs ever so slightly better than a 6600 lol

[mortal gate]

it would be better than a 1650 super atleast

[unkempt nest]

tbf a 1650 Super is still a rock solid 1080p card, if you’re not interested in running max graphics lol

[unkempt nest]

3/4 cards you screenshotted had 6Gb

[granite finch]

@mortal gate u should prob upgradde ur cpu cuz its kinda ass

[mortal gate]

to a?

[granite finch]

(3/4)

[mortal gate]

also i dm'd you

[unkempt nest]

???

A quad core that boosts to 4Ghz is ass? 😂

@mortal gate just get a 6600 or 6600XT and you’ll be more than happy, trust

[echo ridge]

Depends which ones

[unkempt nest]

A Ryzen 5000 series though? lol

[echo ridge]

There's a 5000 series quad core?

[unkempt nest]

Yeah

5300G

[echo ridge]

Well its ass compared to what you can get

But its fine if you have it

[unkempt nest]

Still, it’s very fine for 1080p gaming

[echo ridge]

Its fine

[mortal gate]

im going with a rx 6650 and a ryzen 5 5600

it'll be alot of money, but i'll work hard for it.

[unkempt nest]

Wait do you have a custom build or a prebuilt? You might run into issues if you’re not using standard parts. Ryzen 5300G’s are OEM only so I’m almost sure you have a proprietary mobo.

[mortal gate]

i have a hp pavilion pre-built

[wary summit]

why Xiaomi > Apple

[granite finch]

samsung>xiami

fs

[wary summit]

debatable

I'll agree Samsung> Apple

but Xiaomi is better Price To Perf and software looks better

may not be better but looks better

At least Xiaomi low end phones aren't bricks

Xiaomi A1 has snapdragon 865

and it's like $60usd

can someone help me pick out a laptop

[twin stratus]

https://youtu.be/3sYNn9RlyOw

[strange crane]

Don't get ticc gaming laptops unless you are a hard core gamer without a desktop

[austere valve]

k

im gonna b doing 3d rendering

[strange crane]

Zephrus is an exception

[austere valve]

and like designing

[austere valve]

alr

[strange crane]

You a student?

[austere valve]

yea

gonna be playing some games like minecraft and forza

[strange crane]

I bought a g15 cause it was cheap and came with rtx 3060 ,it's soo heavy which makes my back pain

[austere valve]

isnt it like 2kgs

[strange crane]

Nearly 3 with charger , i am speaking about Dell g15 not the zephrus

Zephrus is under 2 kgs ig which is fine

[austere valve]

o ok

[austere valve]

thats not that much

[strange crane]

You need a good GPU ig

[austere valve]

yea

wait hold up

do u think this is good

@strange crane

[strange crane]

It's good but the build is kinda not upto mark

[austere valve]

im from new zealand btw

[strange crane]

If performance is your priority then go for it

[austere valve]

k

cheap build tho

so idk

[woeful minnow]

its battery life will completely suck as well

[strange crane]

Ya

[austere valve]

oh

[strange crane]

If you can get a zephrus get it

[austere valve]

kk

[woeful minnow]

53wh battery with an intel h series cpu isnt gonna go well

[austere valve]

ill wait for boxinf dsy

[austere valve]

what specs will have god battery life

[strange crane]

The thermals too

[strange crane]

You gotta check the reviews

[woeful minnow]

80+wh battery and amd cpu

[austere valve]

k thx

do u think i need a 3070 12thgen laptop for 3d designing

[strange crane]

New Intel chips are fire breathing dragons lol

[strange crane]

Sure

[austere valve]

and games like forza, minecraft

[strange crane]

3070 is recommended

[austere valve]

gonna be using it for like 4 or 5 yrs

[austere valve]

alr thx

imma go sleep bye

[strange crane]

[mint yacht]

Meat burger

[glacial basin]

why the fuck is five guys charging that much for a single burger

[silver heron]

hey is it possible to use cpu for video playback instead of gpu?

[glacial basin]

you can probably walk into some steakhouse and get something for like RM45/RM50

[wispy marsh]

Because american

[silver heron]

when playing the game, gpu is constantly maxed out and causing massive slowdowns. while there are plenty of cpu resource left

[wispy marsh]

What game, gpu and cpu

[silver heron]

just in general when trying to play a video while game hogs all the gpu

[wispy marsh]

Try disable hw accel on browser

Or your vid player

[silver heron]

welp, time to dig the settings

[wary summit]

yo whats 96000hz

[silver heron]

its better, lot of dropped frame but atleast video arent slowing down and out of sync anymore

so its not possible to shift workload completely to cpu side? still have plenty of unused core left

[full fossil]

where? youtube?

[silver heron]

its sample rate, if your dac support it, it will sound ever so slightly better if the audio source support it

[silver heron]

youtube, sometimes twitch, potplayer

[full fossil]

u can disable Hardware Acceleration on ur browser :V
google specifically how to do it for ur browser

"disable hardware acceleration video decode chrome"

say goodbye to cpu tho lol

[silver heron]

ive tried it, but that only makes it doesnt lag behind, but still drops lot of frames, probably around 5 to 10 frames per 30

[wary summit]

someone willing to help me test ssomethign?

[full fossil]

well, is it still using the gpu? o.O u can check via task manager,
if not, and it still lags, then gg xP

[wary summit]

can soemone help me

like, just open this link and try download this music file, its a file transfer wbsite i wanna see fi it works

[silver heron]

oh yeah, i forgot about that

after disabling hardware acceleration, its not using gpu to decode anymore

[full fossil]

why cant u test that? xP

[full fossil]

yey xP

and still lags, then rip xD

[wary summit]

i just can't im in hong kong

[mortal pier]

What is optimus in nvidia control panel?

[silver heron]

since im using a 13900k, with a igpu, then is it posssible to choose which one video decode use?

[wary summit]

you can choose between CPU or GPU not igpu or gpu iirc

[full fossil]

now that i think about it tho,
im pretty sure gpu has dedicated cores to decode video,
so im not sure why games or other stuff would impact it much

[wary summit]

take that with a grain of salt

[full fossil]

u want to decode one video with gpu, but not other ones? o.O

[silver heron]

i dont really know, but when its maxing out like 98 to 100 percent, its always lags, im sure pcie gen 4 16 have plenty of bandwitch

[full fossil]

maybe ur pc just too weak XD

igpu is really bad as far as i know

[full fossil]

what are u doing there? OwO

[wary summit]

holiday

[silver heron]

well, since dedicated gpu lag video while underload, why not offload it to the igpu for video decoding since its not doing anything anyway

managed to do the decode on igpu but still lags, weird

[full fossil]

u could run a vm with gpu-passthrough on linux and use both gpus, but idk how to do it in videos xD gl

[wary summit]

i had dinner at 4am on my plane

[silver heron]

i went to the graphic settings and set potplayer to use igpu

i guess there is no perfect solution, cpu decoding it is, at least the video wont lag behind

[full fossil]

video lagging with 13900k, sound so ridiculous to me xD
idk whats happening with ur pc, but its probably software problems,
maybe its just time to reinstall windows or something xD

[neat dust]

Does anyone know why my browser closes and opens? Only happens once every time I boot up my pc, I open my browser and after like 10 mins or so a black box appears for half a second and then my browser closes and reopens. I used Google chrome but I just switched to opera gx later today and it still happens

I'm pretty sure the black box is the command prompt thing that pops up

[full fossil]

because pc is doomed, probably infested with malware xP try scanning ur pc with some anti-virus stuff, or just reinstall windows :V

[neat dust]

Yeah I already tried scanning multiple times but it doesn't detect anything

[full fossil]

maybe u can remove the script that auto-runs on startup, check task manager startup tab,
or go deeper https://www.google.com/search?q=windows+10+startup+scripts

find from where it runs and what it does xP

idk windows, so i have no idea xD

[neat dust]

Oh OK thanks

[signal mountain]

Not op, but would it use cpu cycles/ram to do it?

[wispy marsh]

I'm sorry Linus, but this shot is hilarious

Where is Dennis?

[mint yacht]

Higher sample rate will use a little bit more CPU power, yes

i need Dennis to teach me how to steal from my office :V

[wary marlin]

if I have 2FA enabled on Google, is it possible for someone to login to a new device without the code?

I had a critical alert from Google today telling me someone may have accessed my account using harmful malware

the account was via Windows earlier this morning and it definitely wasn't me

I've logged out of everywhere and changed my password but idk what else to do

[neat dust]

do i delete this? it was found by kaspersky antivirus and it put it to quarantine

[full fossil]

maybe your windows is infected, stole your device id, key-logged your password, and just logged in from somewhere else xP
then tried to change ur password, but failed cuz of 2FA,
just a random guess tho xD

[neat dust]

oh i cant link the picture

[wary marlin]

I legit reset Windows yesterday

like completely clean install, formatted drives everything

only thing on it is from trusted sites like steam, malware bytes, etc

[full fossil]

interesting, are u sure its new login, and not login attempt?

[wary marlin]

I'm not sure, it said they signed them out because it was suspicious. But if I look at session history, there's nothing from today

[full fossil]

hi

[forest wedge]

Does anyone understand licensing stuff here I Wana know about the x86 licensing

Any lawyers

[full fossil]

no

[gilded quest]

Why

[full fossil]

?

[gilded quest]

Tbh if anyone is a lawyer they're probably too busy to spend time here

[forest wedge]

Idk just curious,

[forest wedge]

True

Well the question is, I know back in the day Intel gave x86 license to bunch of chip manufacturers, including amd, does that mean they can also take it away

[gilded quest]

Uhhh

AMD developed the 64-bit extension

And I believe licenses that back to Intel?

[full fossil]

[gilded quest]

Idk if Intel can take AMDs license back willy nilly; but if anyone BUYS AMD, that license ends iirc

[forest wedge]

I see

[full fossil]

who r u guys?

[forest wedge]

And arm is just a separate thing? Needs no license?

[gilded quest]

This is more of a question for Dr Ian Cutress

[gilded quest]

Completely separate

ARM has 2 licenses: off the shelf core license, and architecture license

[jaunty compass]

Basically you need a license to develop arm CPUs as well

[gilded quest]

Apple has like a permanent architectural license or something

[jaunty compass]

The only royalty free instruction set/architecture I'm aware of is RISC-V

[forest wedge]

I see

[jaunty compass]

Everything else you need a license for
X86 base from Intel
X86_64 from AMD
Arm/arm64 from well.....arm

And for Intel to revoke the x86 license, AMD/via would have to break the terms of their licensing agreement

[gilded quest]

Does VIA still design CPUs?

[forest wedge]

Amd also has arm license? Iam guessing Intel doesn't

[neat dust]

What does it mean when my anti virus puts something in quarantine

[fickle sentinel]

it thinks the file is sus

[neat dust]

Because it detected 2 trojan and I deleted them but then it also detected a file with trojan but put it into quarantine

[forest wedge]

Basically locked the file

It's not able to cause harm I don't think

If it is a virus

[neat dust]

I posted in #tech-chat-2

I'm not sure if I should delete it since idk if something important will delete if I do

[jaunty compass]

They have a weird licensing thing going on with CPUs for the Chinese government rn

[fossil dirge]

I don't have any viruses on my computer

I use Windows Defender as my anti virus

[full fossil]

I use Linux as my defender

[fossil dirge]

LOL 😆

[full fossil]

xP

[fossil dirge]

Linux is better

[gilded quest]

[rain dust]

No

It basically destroyed my pc bc i uninstalled it

[fossil dirge]

Yeah if you don't know what you're doing on the PC you can damage it

[rain dust]

I followed a tutorial

[fossil dirge]

Oh I see

[forest wedge]

I use linux

Kubuntu

[full fossil]

i use ufunku

[rain dust]

My windows bootloader broken, anyone know hot to fix? (Legacy)

[full fossil]

reinstall it

[rain dust]

No

[full fossil]

u asked how to fix it

then deal with it not being fixed

[full fossil]

You can't damage your pc physically xd it's code, not a hammer.
And I don't blame you, Linux has still miles to go to a beginner friendly experience, but that's why I love it, cuz I can actually write code to do that xP anyone can

[rain dust]

How do i fix it while keeping my current install and data

[full fossil]

you cant.

[rain dust]

I phrased it wrong

[full fossil]

you prolly can actually but like can you goto a more correct channel?

[rain dust]

I heard you can tho? Or is it only without legacy

Besides, reinstalling linux fixes the problem but i dont want it

[full fossil]

like #1027757333117415424

[rain dust]

I forgor

[zinc brook]

yeah thats why im not gonna bother in the future if i dont want linux anymore

but i wont, i have a higher chance of deleting windows

[full fossil]

this is general. and i generally dont feel like troublshooting and hand holding noobs here

I had thought time transitioning from windows myself xD but I managed it, didn't use windows in 2 years now lol

i hope you goto #1027757333117415424 for your windows question

[rain dust]

I prolly should

[zinc brook]

i cant leave windows due to games that i have that are windows only, ik wine but try msfs on wine now

[full fossil]

Msfs?

just... use windows 😐

[zinc brook]

ye, i also have a deep interest in planes

some may say more than tech

[full fossil]

planes are tech

[zinc brook]

ive seen people do it, but i have a 200gb addons folder that would be a pain

[forest wedge]

I can vouch shit is not perfect I mean look at this

[zinc brook]

i prefer freedom 🦅

[forest wedge]

Frick no images

[full fossil]

ok

then dont use windows

[zinc brook]

cant

[full fossil]

ok then use windows dude wtf

what are you on about

I love linuz

You have to learn it yeah, but it doesn't take that long

Everything seems so much smoother and simpler for me

But I guess not the same for casual users

[rain dust]

Ive tried and after 3 days i was still upsetti spaghetti

[forest wedge]

Damn, did you ever try virtual os before going fully in

That's what I did, helped alot

[rain dust]

No, i shouldve im stupid

[full fossil]

That's why the non casual users need to contribute some code to make it better xP

Apple and Google are doing too much processing these days

Google moreso on their Pixel 6/Pro & Pixel 7/Pro

They have good sensors, don't need as much processing as their older sensor

[stoic beacon]

You really think Google overprocesses their photos? It's been our choice at our studio for a lot of texture mapping things because when tested with color calibration tools, the Pixels have always been within 1% of the true life object, whereas iPhone and Samsung sit nearly 18% away

[gilded quest]

Which pixels do you use

[stoic beacon]

We use P7 Pros for our texture mapping, we just got them, after upgrading from P6 Pros

[gilded quest]

Specifically, I think they tend to over sharpen?

[stoic beacon]

Ah, that may be true...I haven't noticed it very much, but the color accuracy is more important for us obviously

[random jolt]

anyone running with pixel 6a rn? looking to get one to replace an old phone, idk if it had the same thing as with the pixel 6/6pro where it gets buggier the longer u use it

[gilded quest]

My Pixel 6 aged like fine wine

It was much less buggy as time went on

[stoic beacon]

Pixel 6a is what I use for a personal device...haven't ran into anything bad with it yet. Certainly has far better cell service than the P6 did.

[gilded quest]

The only bug I have is not being able to screenshot when using wired audio

[random jolt]

it’s like on sale for 300rn and it’s looking p good

[gilded quest]

It's almost impossible to beat it at $300

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, that's a screaming good deal

[random jolt]

aight def getting it then xd

[stoic beacon]

Flat screen, good OS, good camera...not much to not like

[gilded quest]

I've reported this bug with every OS update on two different phones now

Really wish Google would fix it

[stoic beacon]

Just buy Pixel Buds /s

[gilded quest]

That defeats the purpose of using a wire

I hate Bluetooth for music

[stoic beacon]

Hence the /s, which stands for "this was sarcasm" on the internet

[gilded quest]

I use AirPods pro for EVERYTHING else

But I can't listen to music on them

[stoic beacon]

What DAC do you have for the Pixel?

[random jolt]

lowkey just getting it for all the software stuff that pixels offer, sorta getting tired of iOS after almost 12yrs lol

[gilded quest]

Uhhh

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, hardware is the only reason to go iOS, unless you have a million Apple devices already

[gilded quest]

I have 2: pixel adapter & one from Amazon that was a gift and idk which it is

Basically after 20ish minutes of using wired audio, the hardware screenshot shortcut just stops working

[stoic beacon]

Ah, must have good headphones then, the USB C adapater from Google makes audio sound like crap, even compared to the bluetooth audio

[gilded quest]

Yeah the Google one is my backup

The other one I have sounds much better

[random jolt]

yeah (as I send this w a iPhone 13 Pro lol) wanted to try out the other side after a decade with iOS

[gilded quest]

But literally no branding on it or anything lol

My roommate switched from Android to iOS and thus didn't need a USB C adapter anymore

[stoic beacon]

Pixel is a good introduction to Android...nice middle ground all around, with the exception of the top tier cameras/OS

[stoic beacon]

Make sure that the 60hz screen won't bother you though, it is difficult to switch from a 120hz screen to 60hz...your gut reaction will be that Android is slow, when it is not. The screen just has a lower refresh rate on the 6a.

[gilded quest]

Yeah I could never go back to 60Hz

[median idol]

Same TBH

[stoic beacon]

I swap every day, since several of my work phones are all 120hz...after using the 60hz for about 90 seconds or so, I'm used to it again

[random jolt]

yeah heading to the nyc chelsea google store to try it out first

[gilded quest]

I can't do it

Every time I pick up my iPad air I immediately go "ew 60hz"

[stoic beacon]

I will say, you feel it a LOT more on iOS, since the animations are all 30 minutes long

The animations on Android are so much snappier, you don't notice it as much

[random jolt]

been running 120 on my phone for 2 yrs and >240 on all pc monitors for yrs now, the 60hz thing is the only thing that’s like :/ for me for pixel 6a

[gilded quest]

Just swiping between homescreens or scrolling websites is terrible

[stoic beacon]

P7 is also a very good value

If you need a higher refresh rate

[gilded quest]

Although, the iPad air might use a particularly slow LCD?

[full fossil]

all hail Anthony

[random jolt]

p7 is 500rn and p6a is 300, probs just gonna run with the p6a for now unless the 60hz is actually that horrible

[gilded quest]

What phone do you have now?

[full fossil]

why buy phone can u can make phone

[random jolt]

13 pro lol, just replacing my secondary which is currently an iPhone X

[gilded quest]

Ah, so you'd be going 60Hz to 60Hz

[random jolt]

yeah

[full fossil]

u can make your pwn pcb at home, and buy some arm cpu from ebay :V

[random jolt]

The 60 on the x is still quite good tho

[gilded quest]

Rip phone blocks / project ara

[full fossil]

lol, what happened to it?

[gilded quest]

I think the 6a should be fine at 60Hz

[gilded quest]

They just never got off the ground. No supplier support afaik

[random jolt]

yeah plus it’s not gonna be the daily driver so it should be fine

[gilded quest]

The 6a screen is technically capable of 90Hz, but doesn't look good at 90Hz, which is why they left it at 60Hz, iirc

[full fossil]

lmao, those poor people :V
they should have hired me, i just need food/water and i can make anything xP

[onyx basin]

should i buy a 75 hz monitor. or should i overclock my 60 hz monitor to 75? (monitor supports up to 81 hz)

[gilded quest]

You'd have to get a lot of companies on board.....not exactly an easy task

And then there's the driver questions

[full fossil]

didn't they make a prototype? how could no one invest xD

[full fossil]

its just code :V anyone can write that (give me food/water lol)

[misty scarab]

EPIC has been fined over 500 million dollars from the FTC

[gilded quest]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Ara

[cloud forum]

Pocket change for them

But why did they get fined?

[full fossil]

looks epic xP need to revive it

[gilded quest]

I know you're memeing but it's really not that simple lol

[misty scarab]

They had actual psycologists design elements of the game to exploit people into spending more money and spending more time on the game artifically

among other reasons

[full fossil]

idk what memeing means xD and im dead serious lol

[misty scarab]

so many people have filed chargebacks against EPIC that Mastercard and Visa both have added them to a watch list for like fraudulent companies

[cloud forum]

When games do what they were designed to do

[gilded quest]

In order for project ara to have succeeded at scale, you'd have to change the way the entire smartphone industry works

[misty scarab]

theres a difference between having people get into games normally, and having actual psycologists design it to make people want to do it artifically

[cloud forum]

Wasn't the whole case in Canada and not the US?

[cloud forum]

I guess so

[misty scarab]

the lawsuit began in canada but the FTC fined them so apparently there was a seperate case

[gilded quest]

Sure, Google could have tried to do it with first party stuff only, but imo limiting it to one company would almost defeat the purpose of the concept.

Plus with that degree of modularity, you lose a lot of benefits of modern smartphones

[cloud forum]

It's just a fine aswell

[full fossil]

noooo, who cares how other companies work, give people good stuff, they will buy anything TwT
even a body pillow with linus face :V anything

[misty scarab]

im also seeing privacy reasons

if the US fines a company over privacy I cant wait to see how big of a fine the EU will fine them

because GDPR is way way way more strict

[cloud forum]

EU : "hello yes we like money"

Did the EU ever get around to banning loot boxes?

[misty scarab]

the official stated reason was unlawful billing practices,

[stoic beacon]

I had coworkers apply to work there because they had open jobs, but 60% of the positions were R&D / psychology positions

[cloud forum]

I mean I can't open CSGO cases so kinda I guess?

[gilded quest]

Idk if this is a weird stance, but I'm okay with loot boxes if there is no way to pay money for them

[misty scarab]

and Blizzard prob had several laywers to make sure their dark patterns didnt cross the illegal threshold

[wise pumice]

im a fan of loot boxes if they allow you to get stuff that usually you would have to pay for

like i loved cod black ops 3s loot box system

[misty scarab]

im a fan of huge crops like apple and epic getting bullied by the governments

[stoic beacon]

Absolute perfection. You can land both types of whales that way, the whales that buy everything up front, and the whales that can play 20 hours a day to unlock it to make up for not having a job

[misty scarab]

like how Brazil gave apple a fine over the chargers

and how the EU is making them use USB type c

[stoic beacon]

*On any device capable of wired charging.

[cloud forum]

So iPhone 15 will be wireless

[misty scarab]

nah i think they are just going to make a USB type c iphone

[wise pumice]

i thought phones were wireless since the start of this century?

[misty scarab]

the ipad pro and macbooks are both already usb type c

[random jolt]

Apple is probs going to try to go full wireless before they put an actually useful port in their phone

[stoic beacon]

Apple treats iPhone differently from their other products.

[gilded quest]

Apple going full wireless instead of doing USB C is the trillion dollar equivalent of a toddler temper tantrum

[misty scarab]

im sure if they went full wireless there would be anti consumer fines from pretty much most big countries

[stoic beacon]

Probably because their "productivity" products like iPads and MacBooks are geared towards people who at least somewhat know what they're doing, as opposed to the helpless consumers that buy a new iPhone every year

[misty scarab]

people actually buy a new phone every year?

[gilded quest]

If they go full wireless, I'd love to see the ass backwards marketing they come up with to try and sell consumers on a worse product

[cloud forum]

Removing the charging port does remove one more thing that can break therefore doing the customers a favour

[gilded quest]

Aside from YouTubers........ehhh

[random jolt]

spent 30 min trying to upload apple ProRes videos and some raw pic out of my 13 pro that should have only taken 3 min if it had usbc

[wise pumice]

my phone has a flickering seizure multiple times when i click the power button i think i need a new phone

[misty scarab]

my current phone is 2 years old and i have no plans on upgrading it yet

[stoic beacon]

I mean, pulling one of the most popular games off of their app store which may cause literal millions to switch ecosystems just because they were embarrassed that a company circumvented them happened, so going full portless doesn't seem too far outside of the realm

[gilded quest]

Keep in mind, trade in deals in the US make the cost of yearly upgrades not that crazy

[stoic beacon]

I'd say 90% of the people I know with iPhones buy a new iPhone every year.

[gilded quest]

But are they all techies?

[stoic beacon]

Hmm....if you eliminate the techies, that probably does drop it down to 40%, good point

[misty scarab]

why would any techie buy an iphone

[gilded quest]

lmao

[stoic beacon]

Lots of reasons

[misty scarab]

i specifically got rid of my iphone so i could do more with my phone

[gilded quest]

Have you heard of iOS apps

[misty scarab]

ever since I got YouTube Vanced i have saved at least 9.99 a month

[stoic beacon]

For instance, iPhones are infuriatingly restrictive in terms of ecosystem, which means less things can go wrong with them.

If you're a techie, and you spend all day fixing broken crap, the last thing you want to do when you get home is fix more broken crap, and now it's YOUR broken crap.

[gilded quest]

I proudly pay for YT Premium

[misty scarab]

i dont anymore

i had it for years

then i discovered I could just get a better experience for less money

[cloud forum]

Genshin gave away 3 months of premium for free

[stoic beacon]

And you can screw over the content creators while you're at it...very cool of you

[misty scarab]

most of them idrc

[cloud forum]

I watch YouTube with AdBlock on my PC

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, but they do.
Their kids do.
Their lifestyles do.

[misty scarab]

i use AdBlock, SponsorBlock, and ReturnDislikes

[misty scarab]

so you would support the scummy creators like MisterBossFTW who makes the same clickbaity lie content over and over

[cloud forum]

Imagine shaming someone for their own preference 💀

[misty scarab]

and prays on little kids to send him money with their moms cc

[stoic beacon]

No, because I don't watch them, because I'm not an idiot...

[cloud forum]

I don't care what other people do

[misty scarab]

didnt linus tech tips publicly say he doesnt care if people use adblock on his videos

[stoic beacon]

I swear, I just felt the IQ in here drop by 50 points and the selfishness increase by 300%

[cloud forum]

You should try doing the same thing

[gilded quest]

YT Premium is a lot cheaper than trying to support all my educational YouTubers on their individual patreons

[stoic beacon]

Just steal from them instead, it's better for you, and you are all that matters

[misty scarab]

its a free service

if they really cared about people using ad blockers, they would you know, add a wall that prevents people from doing it

[gilded quest]

Sorry but I have a fucking conscience 😤

[misty scarab]

google is a multi billion dollar company

[stoic beacon]

That's what they're doing in 2023, because they're sick of people stealing from them lol. Are you actually that braindead?

[cloud forum]

Dude if you love ads just say it

[misty scarab]

if they really wanted to stop people from using an adblocker they would

[stoic beacon]

The money isn't just going to Google

[misty scarab]

by removing adblockers from chrome

[gilded quest]

55% of ad revenue goes to creators

[misty scarab]

i dont use chrome

[cloud forum]

Why do you think I'll be going to Firefox

[stoic beacon]

You are stealing from creators, and you are stealing from Google and their employees

What a bunch of assholes, yikes

[zinc brook]

in the uk it was £200 i think new

[misty scarab]

idrc if im stealing form google, or epic, or activision, or microsoft, or any of them

How's your mom's basement? Is it cold this time of year?

[zinc brook]

which comes from somewhere? tell me where?

[stoic beacon]

Anyways, skip! Certainly nothing you will ever say in this Discord will have any value if your brain is capable of twisting reality this badly.

[misty scarab]

actually, I dont have to live in my moms basement, because I dont pay those fuckers all of my money

[echo ridge]

Ngl i use ublock because there's so many fucking ads

[gilded quest]

Bruh if $10/month is all of your money you got issues

[stoic beacon]

I pay for premium, because I value the people who spend their time, money, and energy educating and entertaining me. Same reason why I pay for movie tickets, why I pay for online courses, etc.

[misty scarab]

10$ a month for.. 1 of those

[vale hare]

Doing something that is tantamount to stealing isn't taxation though, and you're also hurting the very creators you enjoy because that also impacts their revenue.

[stoic beacon]

None of those are worth fighting for, they're hopeless

[gilded quest]

I only subscribe to 1 service because YouTube is basically infinite content

[misty scarab]

Gamepass, 10 a month; Youtube premium 10 a month; nitro 10 a month; spotify 10 a month; prime 12.99 a month

[gilded quest]

Lmao @ Netflix pricing 🤣

[stoic beacon]

"Drinks and drives" yikes

I don't actually have a drivers license

[gilded quest]

And who says you have to subscribe to every service?

[vale hare]

And your point is?
If you enjoy media enough to consume it then you should be willing to pay for it.

[misty scarab]

eathan is gonna call you a theif

[stoic beacon]

No no no, it's only stealing if you do it sometimes

[gilded quest]

[echo ridge]

If your that broke

[stoic beacon]

You have to pay for some things to not feel bad about stealing in other places

[cloud forum]

You're the real winner

[misty scarab]

these people have yet to realize that some people live in countries where the average wage could hardly afford 1 AAA videogame

[gilded quest]

Oh right there are places other than America

Ew

[stoic beacon]

Did you watch WAN show this last week?

[echo ridge]

Technically thats what localized pricing helps

[gilded quest]

Yes

[mild elm]

America and Western Europe are the only places on Earth

[misty scarab]

except for the places that dont have it yet

[vale hare]

Then someone can't afford them?

Access to any AAA game you want even if you can't afford it isn't a human right.

[echo ridge]

What about canada

[stoic beacon]

Remember the part where Linus said he was just going to block people that had such objectively bad takes they bordered on braindead?

[mild elm]

[echo ridge]

Bruh

[misty scarab]

I have a friend who lives in Moldova and said his store prices are in EUR
The average wage there is only like 551 USD a month

[gilded quest]

Canada is just America's backup copy

[echo ridge]

Does this mean ltt is fake

[cloud forum]

The whole argument was about how using AdBlock is stealing from creators and companies

[mild elm]

Ltt is based in Seattle

[stoic beacon]

Have you seen their "sports" with their sticks and their ice? It's clearly all CGI and propaganda designed to try and prove that life in western Africa is better

[misty scarab]

I mentioned AAA games and how some other countries cant afford 60 dollars a game

[echo ridge]

Thats a different issue from adblock

[cloud forum]

I know but the counter argument was "just buy Premium you peasant lol"

[stoic beacon]

Wait, do you actually not know where LTT is based out of?...

[misty scarab]

ikr

[gilded quest]

Vancouver is just Canadian Seattle

[echo ridge]

Hes trolling me

[stoic beacon]

Minus the giant buildings

They are based in Seattle

[cloud forum]

It's kinda like idk... I have other stuff to pay for in this economy?

[mild elm]

yeah..

the minimum wage in romania is 466 EUR a month

[stoic beacon]

I will say, that place that's just a bit north of the US has some pretty good skiing though

[misty scarab]

yikes

[echo ridge]

Like downtown east hastings seattle has the same crime area

[misty scarab]

and they call us brainless

[echo ridge]

[echo ridge]

Just move

The real question at this point is, which is worse? Seattle or Portland?

I'm here for Christmas and I forgot how shit it was here

so it turns out I am not a person, I am a verb

[mild elm]

I’m Nicolás

But I’m lazy

[unkempt nest]

It doesn’t help that it’s not even limited to specific states. I went to public school in two different counties in the same state, and the curriculum was surprisingly different. I had options to take Chinese and Spanish as early as 4th grade in one county, but the other only had other language classes starting at high school.

[stoic beacon]

Ah, interesting...yeah, southern Idaho is probably close to 50/50 as well, so it makes sense we learn Spanish...still surprised you didn't

[mild elm]

First time I see my name like that in a long time

[gilded quest]

Maybe things are better now....but there was no language options in the aughts when I was in elementary school

[gilded quest]

And it's really important to start learning a language at a young age

[misty scarab]

how much is nitro in PLN?

[stoic beacon]

Well...I've been to Arizona a few times, and maybe I was in the wrong areas, but people weren't speaking English too well either, so maybe they didn't want to overload people

I mean I’m at a basic conversational level in German, and comprehensive in Spanish, but I don’t even feel like that counts lol

[mild elm]

Same with me in french and German

But it doesn’t count

[stoic beacon]

I would argue that comprehensive in Spanish should count, unless your definition of comprehensive is weird

[unkempt nest]

I say comprehensive in context that I can read and understand it for the most part, but as far as speaking Spanish, not much.

Comprehensive may not be the correct term there lol

Wait for the value to crash and go into the negative. It now charges a subscription service to heat your home.

[twin verge]

Talk about missing the boat lol, the boat has sailed, come back with exotic fabrics and spices and set sail again XD

[graceful burrow]

[gilded quest]

Bruh I can buy a 1500W space heater for $20

[twin verge]

The heat comes from the processors that do the mining XD

is humor not allowed?

rule 18: no humor

[stoic beacon]

Only if it directly leads to a lengthy argument

[full fossil]

[stone narwhal]

" 2. Do not harass, disrespect, discriminate against, or otherwise be a dick towards other Discord members (this includes arguing and flame-warring). Failure to abide by this rule generally results in a permanent ban from the LTT Discord Network."

[full fossil]

ETHAN GOT IT YES

it was a bit of a stretch

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, the mods are pretty good about that in general

They don't banhammer people for jokes though, so don't expect that

[full fossil]

[stoic beacon]

Oh, you're actually serious right now...sorry, the only reason I said that was because Jir was asking what Triage was saying, and I was explaining Triage's take. I didn't realize you were actually mad this whole time

[mild elm]
