January is exams time... December is part of holidays here

[full fossil]

@kindred coral

[sonic barn]

What field

[kindred coral]

I'm the heat 😏

[polar fern]

Wheat field

[small zephyr]

why did i only just now brought my first DSi well weirdly enough the DSi XL/LL was cheaper as the og ds lite

[full fossil]

lmao

[full fossil]

was gonna go CS, thinking of becoming an electrician

[pine obsidian]

Probably because most kids broke their original DS lite and that goddamn hinge

[kindred coral]

That's how blankets should work tho... Your body heats them and it keeps the warmth there

[sonic barn]

I'm in CS 2nd year, almost 3rd. It's literally so easy

[full fossil]

I don't have ac in my room

[kindred coral]

It's midnight, damn... Need to get shower and sleep

[pine obsidian]

just be warm 🤷

[sonic barn]

Electrician is physically demanding

[full fossil]

hmmm, this is a big decision so I'll think about it for a few years

[small zephyr]

🤔 well the only issue the one i ordered got is some minor yellowing but it read its common place on ds/dsi

[full fossil]

ye ik

[kindred coral]

We don't have ac in whole house... In my country it's rare to have ac
We have just stuff for warming

[small zephyr]

and replace screens are like both 8bucks

[sonic barn]

You can learn Cs online

[full fossil]

i dont have heat

[kindred coral]

I'm

[sonic barn]

I'll recommend an it degree then learn cs on the side

[full fossil]

I suck with online learning, planning on going to my local college

[pine obsidian]

Don't you learn IT in CS lol? I do. (well...Software Engineering)

[full fossil]

it's so easy to cheat that sometimes I can't help myself

[kindred coral]

Actually... Most of programming is better to learn on your own or through online courses, at least that's where many ppl are learning and happy about it

That's what I heard

[full fossil]

but I suppose a lot of programming is asking smarter people in stackoverflow for help

[kindred coral]

Bye guyss I'm going to enjoy beloved warm shower and then 💤

[sonic barn]

Basics yeah but it is mainly same as certification process

[full fossil]

I despise showering at night, only because that means I go to sleep with wet hair, and mine is super long so t takes a while to dry

[pine obsidian]

Programming is the action of googling stack overflow to ask smarter people how to do 2 + 2. Made even better with ChatGPT

[sonic barn]

You can't do certs after college

You need to study the actual certification program

[full fossil]

chatgpt isn't always very good with it

[pine obsidian]

But if you shower then you're going to bed nice and clean

[kindred coral]

I'm careless about my wet long hair, I'm lazy ass, idc...

But I understand that, many ppl have it like you, my mom is same

[sonic barn]

It's like an exam and Microsoft certs aren't easy as they're changed every year

[kindred coral]

[full fossil]

how long is your hair

[kindred coral]

To my breasts, idk excat length

[pine obsidian]

True. I used it for my Coursework but you just put "I get error x, fix it" and it'll spout out the right answer in the end

Although I've heard its been nerfed now

[full fossil]

mine almost touches my armpits

[full fossil]

because people doing exactly that?

[vapid smelt]

why you being creepy

[pine obsidian]

I mean

[full fossil]

curious

[pine obsidian]

That's its purpose no?

[full fossil]

not creepy

[full fossil]

iirc its mainly meant for interlanguage communication

but also information is good

[pine obsidian]

Programming could be part of that communication 😎

[full fossil]

yes

programming has languages @pine obsidian

[pine obsidian]

My favourite is Assembly 🥹

I love when NASM doesn't work

[sonic barn]

No

[sonic barn]

C++ can give me a program in asm

Better optimized too

[fossil frost]

feel free to try doing that

[pine obsidian]

I had so many problems with Asm and NASM, I never want to touch those things again in my life.

[pine obsidian]

I did. I got 80%

[fossil frost]

passing an exam in school isnt programming

[kindred coral]

That's... Quite long for a man, but as long as you like it, it's alright

[sonic barn]

Programming as computer science is more about structuring a project and maintaining instead of actual coding

[full fossil]

I like it a lot

I want my hair very very long

like down to my waist :P

[fossil frost]

i know, ive been a professional software developer for 22 years

[full fossil]

nice

[pine obsidian]

I wrote a program to a specification. Kinda sounds like programming to me 🤷

[kindred coral]

You want to be guy version of Rapunzel?

[sonic barn]

Nice I want to do data science

[full fossil]

nah, just to my waist :)

[fossil frost]

no, you copied and pasted something without understanding it

[sonic barn]

Software engineering isn't something I see myself doing

[full fossil]

I like having long hair :)

[sonic barn]

Then you get a segmentation fault

Gl debugging that

[pine obsidian]

I did understand it...

[fossil frost]

i doubt it

[sonic barn]

Chatgpt doesn't understand databases too

If you say firebase or oracle, it could and possibly will use older stuff that's outdated

[pine obsidian]

Welp, if that's how you see it.

[sonic barn]

Most of the time it's wrong code

[fossil frost]

its lazy inefficient and obviously generated code when it is right too, and nobody doing a PR review would ever let it pass through, because of how sloppy its written

like with everything chatgpt does, it gives new people a good starting point for things they dont understand... it doesnt do all the work for you, and anybody who thinks it has done all the work for them is going to have a bad time

[small zephyr]

🤨 lol im only seing now what a killer deal tha dsi was usualy its around 80-90bucks and i paid 30 even if i buy 2 new lcds to get rid of the slight yellow im still at like 50bucks

[sonic barn]

eventually ai will get there but that's like 10 years at least

even then programming will be the last to go

[fossil frost]

its always "in 10 years"

[sonic barn]

dw we'll have fusion in 10 years

star citizen 2035

[small zephyr]

🤔 good to know around 7000 ds games total to around 193gb

the more you know

[kindred coral]

Good night everyone!

[pine obsidian]

Gn

[small zephyr]

nighto

[pine obsidian]

That’s just DS games. Last time I checked you can get emulators on home brew if there isn’t a game with a DS release

[warm glacier]

hey people im back

sos

i got a question

[small zephyr]

😂 well the ds prob got the most weird games no one heard of tho

[warm glacier]

is anyone here Laptop savvy?

im getting a laptop its the lenovo pad ill send the specs

chrome book specs

[jaunty compass]

It uses EMMC and a pentium

[pine obsidian]

Are you using it for Facebook?

[small zephyr]

i think the 64gb sd card is a bit oversized for like pokemon and rune factory

[jaunty compass]

What are you planning to do with it

[fossil frost]

ive taken shits more powerful than that

[warm glacier]

no probably discord, ill download an editing software. just little stuff

[pine obsidian]

No you won’t

[warm glacier]

oh 😂

[jaunty compass]

Editing? You're not going to be able to edit video on that

Or photos, realistically

[full fossil]

Anyone have opinions on Starforge? I'm leaning towards a prebuilt because I genuinely cannot find 30/40 series for MSRP

[jaunty compass]

Discord should run but like

[warm glacier]

i can edit video on a chromebook octopus

[jaunty compass]

Not effectively or at any resolution above 720p

How much is it?

[full fossil]

This one seems good because it comes with 2 drives like I want, but I don't know if I can build this for less

[jaunty compass]

I've never used starforge systems myself since I never buy prebuilt systems
I prefer to build them myself

As for a GPU, I recommend looking into the used market

[red obsidian]

No

[small zephyr]

i bet even my 160bucks phone it worlds above my laptop

[jaunty compass]

And checking out the Radeon options

[fossil frost]

why? there is nothing wrong with buying used

[jaunty compass]

That's cool and all but I wasn't talking to you

[red obsidian]

It’s a public sever

[small zephyr]

well its an 32bit dual core cpu with 1,5ghz and an powerful ati grafik chip xD

[warm glacier]

everything i have is cheap lmao im getting a Lenovo Ideapad, and my phone is a Moto G Pure

the phone works amazing

[small zephyr]

and it can run windows 10!

[red obsidian]

You can’t get any 40 series used

[warm glacier]

but still

[small zephyr]

and kinda smooth suprisingly O_o

[pine obsidian]

Bruh

[full fossil]

this is why I never go in public chat

[fossil frost]

they said 30/40, and you can get plenty 30 series used

[red obsidian]

Yeah but 30 series kinda bad

[jaunty compass]

I recommend checking out the Radeon options if you don't need raytracing or plan to use CUDA for blender or workstation tasks
There are also some good deals on 30 series cards used

[fossil frost]

why?

[winter spindle]

No

[red obsidian]

The 6900xt is like 650

[jaunty compass]

40 series is a terrible value anyway so I wouldn't bother with them at all

[winter spindle]

True

6650xt and 6900xt

Are the best of mid range and high end

[pine obsidian]

I got my 3060ti used from a miner. Runs perfectly well for around £300 always check for used 😂

[small zephyr]

linux runs worse on my laptop like i cant watch videos with 10 fps combined with linux ALWAYS fucking up sound settings and makeing crackling noises xD

[red obsidian]

Nah 4090 is the best high end

It’s 100 more than the 3090s msrp

[small zephyr]

dang i miss that expansion port on laptops nowadays

[winter spindle]

It’s the best but the worst value

[red obsidian]

4080 is the worst value

[winter spindle]

You can’t buy either

[small zephyr]

need more storage just plug it into the side need a card reader just plug it in

[red obsidian]

4080s are in stock everywhere

[jaunty compass]

The 4080 is basically worthless

[pine obsidian]

Still need to sell a kidney for it

[jaunty compass]

Just buy a used Radeon card tbh

I don't think anyone is

[red obsidian]

Technically aren’t consoles best mid range for value

[vapid smelt]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/TG6v78 with a instock 4080 via gamestop

[small zephyr]

wait you jail break the dsi with the camera app

[woeful minnow]

Do you mean donate?

[jaunty compass]

Technically yes, in practice you can only game on a console so it's not really the same thing

Right now at least

[red obsidian]

Get the 7700x not the 13600k

[vapid smelt]

why get a slower cpu?

[pine obsidian]

Sell everything you have two of

[jaunty compass]

The 4080 is a terrible buy, why would you recommend it

[vapid smelt]

they wanted a 3080 for the same price

[red obsidian]

It’s slower than the 13600?

[jaunty compass]

Do they refuse to look at the used market or something

[woeful minnow]

Yes

[vapid smelt]

yup

[jaunty compass]

If in this market you don't even consider a used graphics card, you can't be helped

[pine obsidian]

Gunna sell my eyes, my -, my left leg, my left ear, my right leg

[red obsidian]

What about gaming

[vapid smelt]

look at the single core

[pine obsidian]

Lol. I’ll do you better. A single stick of 4gb laptop memory

[red obsidian]

So basically the same

[jaunty compass]

A Rx 6600 XT can regularly be found on eBay for $250 or less
For a midrange system you can't really beat that right now

[woeful minnow]

Like $60

Sometimes $50

[red obsidian]

Why not just sacrifice some performance now and get a x3d chip later

[warm horizon]

i got a corsair 4000d airflow, and holy it's such a nice case to work in compared to my old one

[pine obsidian]

Now is the best time to buy 2nd hand since everyone got new stuff for Xmas

[small zephyr]

i would do it if my dorm wasnt so stupid

dogs and cats even birds are okay no snakes

[pine obsidian]

Selling my Dog for a Ryzen 7

[jaunty compass]

You can find 3070s for like mid 300s to low 400s

[small zephyr]

i have masive snake phobia tho but corn snakes and boas are okay xD

[red obsidian]

3070 kinda weak though

🤔 i got biten by a poisonous snake in greek when i was 13

[jaunty compass]

I'm talking usd

[woeful minnow]

Why can people not shorten links before they send them

[small zephyr]

i swear that wasnt a nice hospital visit

greek hospitals sucks

[pine obsidian]

Wow. Typical 🙄

[jaunty compass]

A dollar is worth less, the cards are cheaper

[pine obsidian]

He's a mongrel

[red obsidian]

I don’t know why but I feel like modern gen consoles are going to age better than the 3060/6600

[jaunty compass]

For example
https://www.ebay.com/itm/334684366287?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=DN6sGZR4RAu&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=kXyGjdaOQFK&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

[pine obsidian]

I feel SCAMMED

[jaunty compass]

Because they're closer to 6600 XT and 3060 ti

[jaunty compass]

Why?

[pine obsidian]

That's £285.17. £70 less than my 3060ti lmao

Well, what I paid for it.

[jaunty compass]

💀

[pine obsidian]

The US is a real life money glitch

[jaunty compass]

Well, you were scammed

[red obsidian]

This good? https://www.ebay.com/itm/144877409529?epid=23040748507&hash=item21bb5dd4f9:g:L~oAAOSwUn1jrcP2&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA0JJLGepyc0dVivsVRldbXe9Y%2Bjw3OYioFgqcgajFgok8D9Wctw03LbWYMGycS8mbpSaIz0Sj%2F04mzwb2TMAa0MGM1d407Dc5p3%2B9F%2FeT%2F5ent3qe7A%2FYGFOHCpTT4dKbXX%2FKp%2Fks3C%2BwVfs0vDQ%2BwOqeoO7yxZxZgWOZ2WxYXdC0COdh1oWlU43WMGestSbqO%2BKq%2FQBsoV8K7KbApUQy%2BzYC2MJ3hjzYGKyKbyu71IOqsxrnzHO3%2BxgGWASN30RxIE3ljKpzNDvIbBpQMFy%2FM8s%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR9br6desYQ

[jaunty compass]

That's an auction, if you got it at that price it would be alright

The 3090 is a bit pricy on eBay right now

https://www.ebay.com/itm/295446919319?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=krrsy_voqvk&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=kXyGjdaOQFK&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

[pine obsidian]

Man, next time I'll bite the bullet and pay the import charge and wait for the longer delivery to save money lol

[red obsidian]

3090 for 600 seems like a good deal

[jaunty compass]

It is

[red obsidian]

But how do I get my money back if it’s a scam

[jaunty compass]

eBay buyer protection is quite good

I've never been scammed on eBay

My most recent GPU I bought in April on eBay and got a great price for it back then

[red obsidian]

Do Evga cards still have warranty on them

[fossil frost]

yes, if you buy new, nothing bought 2nd hand ever has a warranty on it

[small zephyr]

😭 sony should learn from microsoft

[jaunty compass]

If the warranty is still valid, they'll honor it even if it's second hand

Most companies at least

[red obsidian]

PlayStation way better than Xbox

[small zephyr]

they "gamepass" shit they have now is flooding my emails

[red obsidian]

You can’t even deny it

[jaunty compass]

I hate the PlayStation controllers

[red obsidian]

That’s the same exact excuse

[jaunty compass]

It basically makes them automatically worse because it hurts to play

[fossil frost]

nobody is trying because nobody can be bothered to argue with somebody who is acting like a 12 year old

[crimson breach]

toxiccccc

[jaunty compass]

When have I said otherwise?

[small zephyr]

i download FFXV royal edition over that ps gamepassthingy and now i have like 15email with thank you for your purchase

[red obsidian]

Have you tried the ps5 controllers?

[jaunty compass]

I hate the dualshock and daulsense controller design, they hurt my hands

[crimson breach]

like ya name

[pine obsidian]

How about people play on a platform they want to play on?

[small zephyr]

there are 3 things already superrior to ps 1. controller 2. gamespass is way better 3.the xbox store is better

[jaunty compass]

Every dualshock controllers has hurt my hands because of the stick placement, I haven't tried dualsense yet because I'm not going to buy a console I don't want with a controller that will probably hurt my hands

[small zephyr]

the ps store is garbage

[red obsidian]

PlayStation has so many better games

[jaunty compass]

I'm not going to waste $500 on a system with no games i care about and a controller I don't like

[small zephyr]

its not only the stick placement for me its the grip of it in general

[pine obsidian]

Outlandish opinion. I like the Switch Controllers

[red obsidian]

It’s only 500 dollars

[crimson breach]

w abt the steam deck though?

[small zephyr]

whats the point if everything else is a terrible experience

[jaunty compass]

That's $500 I could spend on anything else

[jaunty compass]

The steam deck controller to me is quite comfortable but the touch pads are a little weird

[red obsidian]

There’s literally benchmarks of how the ps5 beats the series x in games

[small zephyr]

🤨 well and yesterday my ps4 hdd died as well

[red hearth]

same

xbox controllers r better for ur thumbs

playstation controllers gave me carple tunnel

[small zephyr]

welp i got it for 6bucks tho so im not complaining i was so fucking happy i found a dude that sold me an 2,5inches 1tb hdd for 20bucks

[pine obsidian]

That's crazy. But what if your friends are all on Xbox? You're not just going to ditch your friends because the PS plays games better.

[fossil frost]

stop feeding the troll, they are being an petulant child and can only see out of their own eyes and are incapable of seeing things any other way... just ignore them and they will go away

[small zephyr]

not only for the thumbs

[red obsidian]

All my friend’s are on pc 💀

[red hearth]

basically ur whole hand

[red hearth]

we all r on pc 💀

[small zephyr]

i get serious pain in the tendon area? is it called tendons?

[jaunty compass]

The steam deck is probably the best gaming related purchase I've made in a while

[red hearth]

tru

[pine obsidian]

It's a hypothetical scenario

[red hearth]

I want to get one but I have too many consoles

[red obsidian]

Best handheld console

[crimson breach]

are you looking for tendonitis?

[red hearth]

yea

[jaunty compass]

It basically replaced my switch lol

[red hearth]

yea its more powerful than a switch

[small zephyr]

maybe its the pain in the forearm right under the wrist

[pine obsidian]

How much do you use it though. I've been on the fence about it since when I'm out I don't game at all. Do you use it outside?

[jaunty compass]

It's fast enough to emulate the switch

[small zephyr]

the place you see your veins when you make a fist

[jaunty compass]

I use it quite a bit, mostly on the couch or in bed but I do use it when travelling

[red obsidian]

Is it possible to get a 3090 build for 1500

[small zephyr]

🤨 ps4 destroyed quick time events for me

[jaunty compass]

If you build it yourself, yeah

And find a used card

[red obsidian]

Ps4 is a 8 year old console

Give it a break

It aged way better than any pc at its time

[small zephyr]

🤔 well me and playstation is kinda a love and hate realtionship

[jaunty compass]

For me it's just a hate hate relationship 💀

There's literally one game on PS4 I want to play but I don't want to buy a PS4 or use a PS4 controller

[crimson breach]

xbox is better because its getting TM2020 soon

[jaunty compass]

I'm just waiting for a PS4 emulator to be able to play it tbh

[red obsidian]

Than get a ps5

Easy

[pine obsidian]

The Xbox 360 will always have a special place in my heart since the Orange Box on the 360 got me into PC gaming

[jaunty compass]

I don't want to waste money on a PS5, either

[red obsidian]

360 was the goat

[jaunty compass]

It has no games I care about

And I don't like the controller

[red obsidian]

That you haven’t tried

[pine obsidian]

you sounds like a certain British content creator. "It has no games!"

[small zephyr]

get an mayflash magic-s pro 2 and you can use your xbox controller on the ps4

[jaunty compass]

Bloodborne isn't worth me paying hundreds of dollars on a console I don't want

[small zephyr]

🤔 do you mean spiff?

[pine obsidian]

Pyro

[jaunty compass]

Pyrocynical moment

[eternal rivet]

what chat do I go to if I need help with somehting?

[pine obsidian]

It has no Games!

[small zephyr]

okay only brit i know i spiffingbrit

[jaunty compass]

Really though, it has literally no games I care about

[small zephyr]

i love how he exploits the shit out of games

[red obsidian]

What games do you care about

[small zephyr]

🤷‍♂️ who needs cheats and hack if you can use the games systems as "intended"

[jaunty compass]

I don't care about gow Ragnarok, or the demons souls remake (might as well be a remaster), or ratchet and clank

[small zephyr]

like using alchemie in skyrim to make yourself a god

[red obsidian]

And the Spider-Man’s?

[small zephyr]

reason i got ps4 again was spider man

[jaunty compass]

Those are on PC

And I don't care about them anyway, either

[pine obsidian]

GOW had a massive payment for entry in just the console itself. The small amount of exclusives aren't worth the massive price tag for the system

[red obsidian]

Yeah for like twice the price

[small zephyr]

on pc it just doesnt feels the same as if i play it on the ps4

[jaunty compass]

Especially when I care about none of the exclusives

[red obsidian]

500 dollars isn’t a “massive” price tag

That’s just crazy ☠️

[pine obsidian]

It might not be for you, but it is for many.

[jaunty compass]

When I wouldn't even buy those games for their price to begin with, I'm not going to buy a $500 console for one game

[small zephyr]

and some publisher always fuck up controller support on pc "cough" "ubisoft" "cough"

[pine obsidian]

That's not even when scalpers were hiking up the prices

[jaunty compass]

$620 for Bloodborne is pretty damn high

[red obsidian]

You can be working a 9/5 and get 500 dollars

[ashen marsh]

a

[small zephyr]

🤔 biggest issues with controller support seems to be maily easy anti cheats fault

[pine obsidian]

brb gunna go buy a PS5 before paying my rent 🤡

mb bro

[red obsidian]

Good choice

[small zephyr]

depending on the game if you remove the EAC your controller works fine

[jaunty compass]

I have better things to spend my money on than buying a ps5, like things I actually want

[pine obsidian]

Just to get a console with no games

[jaunty compass]

💀

[pine obsidian]

£500 for a system, with no games. You might as well get the Steam Deck

[red obsidian]

Almost all triple a games are on ps

[red obsidian]

Can the steam deck do 4K at 60hz?

[jaunty compass]

At least the steam deck is portable 💀

[pine obsidian]

true

[pine obsidian]

who
cares?

I'm pretty sure at a certain point you can't even tell the difference

[jaunty compass]

Also a steam deck is the equivalent of £330 over here

[red obsidian]

On a 75 inch lg c2 you can

[pine obsidian]

Basic Steam Deck is £350

[jaunty compass]

And a 256 gig SSD to go in it is about £16

[pine obsidian]

So you can get tons of games with the money you save

[jaunty compass]

In the U.S. it's $400 which is £330

[pine obsidian]

Most expensive one is £569 (nice)

[jaunty compass]

[full fossil]

hi does anyone know how to use raytracing on a arc770 for mc

[jaunty compass]

I don't think you can for Minecraft

[full fossil]

oh

[pine obsidian]

That's not even getting into the free emulation you can do on the device

[jaunty compass]

Idk if arc is supported for bedrock RTX
As for java you can try the ptgi shaders

[crimson breach]

only nvidia cards

[full fossil]

it says system requirements are 2060 and above

[red obsidian]

Alr now I actually need help with something

[full fossil]

[red obsidian]

My friend needs to make a build for 1500 and I don’t know what cpu is best

[pine obsidian]

Sell the PS5. Problem solved

[full fossil]

very cheap for a 1.5k build

[red obsidian]

Sure

[full fossil]

hi

is the rtx 3070 worth it

im using a gtx 1650 atm

[jaunty compass]

Depends

[full fossil]

what price and which version

https://www.scan.co.uk/products/zotac-geforce-rtx-3070-gaming-twin-edge-oc-lhr-8gb-gddr6-ray-tracing-graphics-card-5888-core-1755mhz

[jaunty compass]

Get one used and for a good price it's very worth it, at MSRP it's not worth it

[full fossil]

no i buy everything new

[full fossil]

nope.

[jaunty compass]

Well, that sounds like a you problem, then

And no, that card is overpriced

[jaunty compass]

That explains the 1650

[full fossil]

i got the gpu when i had my dell optiplex thats why i got it

its a temporary gpu

i got a new system for christmas apart from a gpu

[crimson breach]

get one of the nvidia 40 series, theyre really cheap at MSRP

[full fossil]

£1,100 very cheap

[crimson breach]

yeah

[full fossil]

no.

[crimson breach]

its a glitch when it says 1100

[full fossil]

i dont need a 40 series

i could save the money and get a second monitor

buy a cheaper card and get a second monitor

[jaunty compass]

If you couldn't tell, he was messing with you

[full fossil]

yes i can tell

my dad is going to choose my gpu anyways cause im 14 and cant legally work in my area

im almost 15 so i will work part time then

Cool

[jaunty compass]

If you must have a new card, take a look at the Rx 6700 XT

[full fossil]

^

[fossil frost]

you posted a link to scan, which is about 20 minutes from my house, so i guess you live in the uk, whoever told you that you cant work at 14 but can at 15, is talking shit

[jaunty compass]

On Newegg you can get one for $370 USD, idk about the UK market

[full fossil]

where can i work then

[full fossil]

theyre only like £400

[full fossil]

helping ur dad with his job

or mother or anyone you know that could use help

[full fossil]

my mother works plus i cant help her in her job i have to be 16

[crimson breach]

like mow a neighbors lawn r smth

[full fossil]

hell no wtf

[fossil frost]

there are a lot of places that take on under 18s "unofficially", especially labour type jobs where they pretty much expect you to be a tea boy

[full fossil]

hm idk

ill see in my area at some point

[golden talon]

buy used

[crimson breach]

or wait a year

[full fossil]

no as i said i buy everything new

[jaunty compass]

He's allergic to used hardware

[golden talon]

thats dumb as fuck

[full fossil]

every part in my pc is new

[jaunty compass]

I already told them that

[golden talon]

actually stupid

[crimson breach]

thats what i said!

[full fossil]

😱

[jaunty compass]

Yes they're a bozo we know

[full fossil]

I was totally not being sarcastic

[crimson breach]

like hard drives are ok to get new

[full fossil]

holy shit im stupid for wanting new hardware!!!!

[fossil frost]

local corner shops are usually the best place to ask, shelf stacking. wont fly in a supermarket.. but local corner shops... 100% will take kids

[golden talon]

youre stupid for wasting money

[full fossil]

Why are y’all insulting him 💀

[full fossil]

ah :P

[full fossil]

wasting money cause i dont want a second hand card

[crimson breach]

cuz he dont want to buy used

[full fossil]

cant say shit here fr

[golden talon]

when you can save hundreds of dollars on a second hand card and put it towards another part in your PC

[full fossil]

bro second hand cards arent even that much cheaper ive checked

[golden talon]

Because you dont negotiate

[fossil frost]

some people are just arseholes, and cant understand other peoples view points or reasoning... thats something you will have to figure out

[golden talon]

I negotiated a 3070 down to $275

[jaunty compass]

Average UK PC builder

[full fossil]

I wouldn’t take the insults from these people in a serious way but overall it’s discord lol

[golden talon]

I negotiated a complete PC minus GPU and SSD down to $300

[full fossil]

fr lol

[crimson breach]

@full fossil why do you not want to buy old/secondhand

[fossil frost]

because his dad is buying it, not him, and his dad says it has to be new

[small zephyr]

good night

[full fossil]

because i prefer to have new first hand hardware its more reliable also my dad isnt going to buy second hand shit

my dad doesnt cheap out on things i get what i want

[golden talon]

if its parent's money that makes sense

[full fossil]

LMAO wow

[full fossil]

not like that

[jaunty compass]

.

[full fossil]

"i get what i want"

BRO NOT LIKE THAT

[lone ferry]

Hey guys Im new to the pc game and I have a question

[golden talon]

papa's love money coming in handy

[crimson breach]

so ur spoiled...

[jaunty compass]

About what?

[full fossil]

bro i said i dint mean it like that fucking idiots

listen to me for once lmao

[crimson breach]

sawry man

[golden talon]

No wonder he doesnt want to buy used because it's "cheaping out"

[full fossil]

no youre just pissing me off tbh

[lone ferry]

Would my pc work without a storage card or graphics card

[golden talon]

no

[jaunty compass]

If you just want to enter the bios and you have integrated graphics, sure

[crimson breach]

is your dad tech savvy?

[full fossil]

i say "i dont buy second hand shit" and get flammed

[fossil frost]

yes, but you would need to network boot it

[full fossil]

yes very

[jaunty compass]

If you don't have integrated graphics, no, and if you want to get into an OS, no

[full fossil]

hes the person who got me into pcs

[lone ferry]

What’s that

[crimson breach]

most of it isnt shit though

[fossil frost]

because you are inferring that all second hand stuff is shit... which it isnt.. a gpu used, is exactly the same as buying it new, other than it being cheaper

[golden talon]

theres literally 0 point not getting secondhand stuff

[full fossil]

not literally shit

[golden talon]

its literally exactly the same as getting new

[fossil frost]

look it up

[lone ferry]

Ok

[full fossil]

not really...

[golden talon]

except you get a way cheaper price

[crimson breach]

for storage it isnt a good idea though

[golden talon]

You cant tell me im wrong lol

[fossil frost]

only for mechanical hard drives

[crimson breach]

yeah

[full fossil]

look thats just you my dad perfers to get me new stuff not second hand gpus

[golden talon]

only storage and RAM i wouldnt

[jaunty compass]

Why ram?

[golden talon]

everything else makes perfectly more sense to get secondhand

[full fossil]

its not really my choice in the end of the day he chose all my pc parts for christmas

[jaunty compass]

The only ram I've ever had die was actually a stick I bought new online, funnily enough

[woeful minnow]

and psu generally

[full fossil]

i asked for a i7 4770 and 16gb ddr3 ram and he bought me a whole new pc that he helped me build which was fun

[golden talon]

is the rtx 3070 worth it

its not really my choice in the end of the day he chose all my pc parts for christmas

[full fossil]

ok?

[jaunty compass]

I'd get a new storage, a new PSU, and typically a new case because there aren't really good deals for that

[full fossil]

what i cant ask a fucking question?

[indigo plume]

is Corsair iCue H100i Elite good enough cooling for ryzen 7000

[crimson breach]

buy 2nd hand gpu and get 32 gb ddr 4 ram with the extra money

[golden talon]

[full fossil]

im getting 32gb anyways

[golden talon]

This is funny as fuck im ngl

[full fossil]

you have broken humor

[crimson breach]

ikr

[jaunty compass]

I almost feel bad for this person
Then I remember their parents are buying them a $500+ GPU

[golden talon]

[full fossil]

its £450

[golden talon]

When I was 14 I was making do with my $200 chromebook

[crimson breach]

honestly though yall be talking about your nvidia gpu's and im running intel 6000 integrated graphics in a 2015 imac

[fossil frost]

dont get further involved, as i said, some people are arseholes, and you will have to get used to that

[jaunty compass]

£450 is $544

I know how to do conversions, goofball

[golden talon]

Get yourself an upgrade my guy

[full fossil]

ok 👍 😄

[full fossil]

yeah lol

[jaunty compass]

When I was 14 I bought a used HP workstation online and a GPU from office Depot

Was like $130

[golden talon]

by the time i was 16 I was contacting scrapyards for old Thinkstations

[crimson breach]

@golden talon underpowered gang lets gooo

[golden talon]

well now i have okay hardwaer

[jaunty compass]

I have a pretty midrange system now

[golden talon]

I use an M2 Macbook air and ive got two PCs with 64 gigs of ram and a Titan Xp/RTX 3070

[crimson breach]

why

[jaunty compass]

M2 MacBook air
Aka the downgrade because it melts again

[dusty rune]

m2 macbook air, the lap burner

[jaunty compass]

💀

[golden talon]

its none of that ngl

[crimson breach]

gonna make some tea with your laptop?

[golden talon]

people complaining of it getting too hot are doing some stupid shit

[dusty rune]

why couldnt they just add a small fan though

[golden talon]

the macbook air isnt designed for prolonged workloads

[jaunty compass]

Like trying to use it

[fossil frost]

apple care more about form than function

[crimson breach]

... to make tea

[golden talon]

because the macbook air is marketed towards everyday use like browsing, video calls and stuff

Ive never seen my macbook air go above 45 C even under zoom, IDEs open and chrome

[full fossil]

last year i was using intel celeron n2840 laptop

[golden talon]

the macbook pro is designed for that heavy workload shit

isnt it worse to have it on front

you know the 400D doesn't support top mounted 360m radiator right?

o thank you for adding the useful information i think a new blah blah or a used blah blah would be a great upgrade

[night heron]

no way to give you an answer

everyone's disk usage is different

[light nexus]

What’s good, what’s bad

[full fossil]

that depends on a lot of factors

[finite herald]

im willing to bet the LTT YT channel has at least one video to answer every potential question we have

[deft folio]

Probably depends on how much you write/remove/rewrite data

[light nexus]

Like 5% each year is probably not good?

[peak granite]

AMD is shit, Android is shit, Intel and Apple are the best. That will be all. Goodbye.

[night heron]

but a ssd is unlikely to die before you replace it

unless youre someone who keeps it for more than a decade

[light nexus]

I think I am

[night heron]

or someone who beats the hell out of it

constant formatting and overwriting etc

[light nexus]

But would you say 5% is bad in a year

[night heron]

depends on the drive itself

[light nexus]

Mp600 pro I think it was

[night heron]

some are rated for 200 terabytes, some are rated for 1200

it's a very difficult question to give you a simple answer

5% a year sounds a little high but it's not unreasonable

[light nexus]

Oh damn

Mine went down 1% in 6 months

[night heron]

i think that's about what my last nvme got

[deft folio]

Try to making a software for phones and then just with usb transfering it onto real phone and then testing it and if something goes wrong just uninstall, compile another version and try again on iphone

[night heron]

that's pretty great pace

it should last a long time

[peak granite]

But not important?

Okay yeah developing is a still pretty niche stuff but what about RMS?

[full fossil]

@night heron how is your aw3423dwf

[night heron]

what phone do you have

iPhone is pretty though and it just works so nice

[full fossil]

iphone se 2020 why

[night heron]

i was gonna try to compare it to your phone display

if you had one with a 120hz oled display

nope

mine is pretty basic :P

[night heron]

perfect color, perfect uniformity, perfect black levels

it's like seeing games the same way you did when you were a little kid

[full fossil]

damn

how much is it, what are the specs/ selling points

[vapid smelt]

750p LCD display not even oled smh

[full fossil]

its also like 5"

NO COOPA

[deft folio]

You can customize your phone on android and can't on iPhone, and its works so nice because apple is restricting everything thats not approved to work well, not to mention that because of that you cant download any applications from internet e.t.c.

[night heron]

that's pretty big

[full fossil]

its bigger than 5"

6 1/2"

apple's phone ips displays are a lot better than computer monitor ips displays

[deft folio]

R u in us?

[night heron]

but you can get a used iphone for very little and have years of software support

[vapid smelt]

good thing thats the only thing burning

[full fossil]

I'm glad

[night heron]

yah

[vapid smelt]

Russia in USA?

[full fossil]

bruh

[night heron]

just dont be broke

buy apps and subscriptions

[full fossil]

I got my phone for free

[night heron]

/j

[full fossil]

as long as I stay with verizon for 2 years its free

[night heron]

but when i was on android i didnt ever install apks or flash a custom rom so i figured what's the point

i dont customize or tinker with my phone so ill take the more stable option with better support

[full fossil]

@vapid smelt has bimbo iq

[mortal gate]

happy new years!

[full fossil]

happy new years :)

[deft folio]

Here in Russia basic iphone 14 is 80+k rubles, basic s22 is around 55k rubles, 25k rubles difference, not to mention that for price of basic iphone 14 you can get s22 ultra

[mortal gate]

i hope for a life time supply of cupcakes for 2023! 🧁

[vapid smelt]

could you send a message to your mum that i cant make it for new years

[night heron]

me as well little cheese

[full fossil]

no, you will disappoint her

[night heron]

im very sorry for the sudden rain check

[full fossil]

:(

[deft folio]

And you really cant emulate old games on iphone

Which is a huge L

[vapid smelt]

wdym

[night heron]

yeah if you like to install apks or emulate or tinker with your phone then dont get an iphone

me personally i use a blank black wallpaper and dont customize anything

the only thing iOS restricts that annoys me is that extracting photos sucks

[indigo plume]

I heard that having aio on front panel can reduce its life ?

[full fossil]

could've at least let me know before I bought you a present

[indigo plume]

is that true

[vapid smelt]

if you install it wrong it can

[idle summit]

<@&750150305383186585> the Top Review on the expensive LTT CPU pillow is really bad and just says KILL N*****S over and over

[indigo plume]

how do u install it wrong

like loose conections or somthing

[full fossil]

should email customer support

[night heron]

you want the part where the tubes connect to the radiator to be at the top of the case if you're installing it in the front

i believe that's true anyway

[deft folio]

The only customizing that i did is putting Hollow knight as wallpaper and thats all, but I'm really into downloading apks/emulating old games

[magic crown]

[full fossil]

@night heron what should I order you for your bday

[night heron]

so the air bubbles congregate at the top of the radiator instead of in the pump

it's better to use a cpu radiator as top exhaust though

[vapid smelt]

the bad way is to have the pump block at the highest point of the loop, the air will get stuck in the pump and slowly kill it

[manic torrent]

The best way to use an AIO is while you're waiting for all your custom loop gear to arrive

[indigo plume]

so u just flip it then

[vapid smelt]

best way is tubes down like so (pretend the gpu is cpu)

[night heron]

is tubes down actually better for front mount?

i was wrong this whole time

i use top mount anyway

[indigo plume]

well case Im getting dont support top mount

[night heron]

if you havent already bought the aio then just dont

either get a case that supports top mount or dont get an aio if you havent already bought everything

[deft folio]

Guys, pirating adobe software is based or not?

[vapid smelt]

just DONT do this example of bad installation the radiators is below the cpu pump block

[night heron]

does server booster still have public chat image perms

i cant remember if that was removed

[vapid smelt]

it should

[full fossil]

yes

@night heron what were the headphones you recommended me again? dac too

i need to save them somewhere

[vapid smelt]

just buy them now

[full fossil]

ah yes let me get the money from my money tree

[night heron]

sennheiser hd560s
hifiman he400se
beyerdynamic dt880

those three are probably the best under $200

[full fossil]

ah yes i remember i wanted the he400se

what about the dac

[vapid smelt]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/zsWrxr/sennheiser-hd-569-headset-hd-569 i personally think these are a terrific value

[full fossil]

the he400se are 109$

[night heron]

i would avoid anything closed back from sennheiser

whoever tuned them was on illicit substances

[full fossil]

OL MATE SENNY

[magic crown]

won't bother with 400se, tons of qc and timbre issues

[full fossil]

huh duh six hunges

[magic crown]

560s is your best bet

[full fossil]

timbre?

[night heron]

someone just getting into the hobby isnt going to notice timbre

hifiman is known for bad quality control though

[full fossil]

what is timbre?

[magic crown]

how close the tone of the instrument/vocal is compared to real life

[full fossil]

oo detachable cable on 560s

[full fossil]

I use spotify

planning on getting flac for all my music tho

[night heron]

instruments can sound different on different headphones even if their frequency response/tuning is very similar

[magic crown]

file source doesn't matter, it's still pretty noticeable

[vapid smelt]

i use these https://pcpartpicker.com/product/jKM323/sennheiser-hd-559-headphones-hd-559

[magic crown]

as for dac/amp, apple dongle would be enough for all of the options michael listed

[full fossil]

@night heron would you use the headphone jack on uphoria um2 or my 1970's amp

[night heron]

i mean i dont know what amp you have

but id probably try the 1970 amp before i tried the um2

[full fossil]

technics SU-CO 3

[night heron]

but you can get an $8 apple dongle and bypass your motherboard's audio completely and have a good experience

[full fossil]

why :P

[night heron]

wym why

[finite cloud]

This picture is sad, that is a very easy fix

[magic crown]

has a dac & amp build in that sounds pretty well for the price

[full fossil]

why use apple dongle

[magic crown]

and most onboard audio are miss anyways

[night heron]

despite being $8 it actually performs far better than any motherboard audio solution

its only real limitation is power output

but it still has more than motherboard audio

[full fossil]

what if I want to use an external dac to make it sound better?

would it make much of a difference?

[night heron]

i dont think youd be able to distinguish the dac in the apple dongle from a $100 external dac

only super nerds can distinguish dacs apart blind with any consistency

[magic crown]

especially not on those headphones

[vapid smelt]

my wallet can

[full fossil]

okay

[magic crown]

none of them scales much

[night heron]

you could use the apple dongle as a dac and connect it to your technics amp

[sonic spruce]

Is sdram the same as regular ram for a regular board?

[magic crown]

tfw your dac costs more than your graphics card

[night heron]

with a 3.5mm to dual RCA cable

[full fossil]

this is gonna sound stupid, but I hate the look of the HD 560S

[full fossil]

I'd have to order one

[magic crown]

look is subjective anyways

[full fossil]

I only have 1/4" to rca

[full fossil]

that's it

[kindred gulch]

Does anyone know why im having this issue

[magic crown]

wrong channel

[kindred gulch]

Oh my bad

[night heron]

tbf we're in the wrong channel tooo
