LMG deuxmoi

[timid meadow]

To an extent maybe. But not much afaik

[cosmic coyote]

alot

depends on content too as well

[past egret]

pretty sure most of ltt viewers are in it for the tech, not how cute linus is i mean how old he is

[serene snow]

i thought people realized that it depends on what the creator makes

[cosmic coyote]

linus underwear pics

[serene snow]

a young man or some elderly grandpa could make the same videos as linus, you'd get a different vibe but it'd still be the same interesting tech shit

[slate tulip]

I could totally get on video and talk about tech. Easy peasy

[strange elk]

Welp

[slate tulip]

I couldn’t edit it, or market it, or any of the other skills required to make it successful

[timid meadow]

Youd get a different vibe because its a different person, not because of their age. A healthy 50 year old can act just as young as linus

[cosmic coyote]

yea no different memes and interests

[strange elk]

Same tho

[serene snow]

exactly my point

[strange elk]

I need something to write my cassettes from my pc

[past egret]

i think linus' maturity also plays into this, getting to mingle with younger age group is also relevant in tech

[cosmic coyote]

lmao

[past egret]

ok sorry dad

[strange elk]

Why are yo so funny lmao xddddzs

[cosmic coyote]

i mean gaming is pretty relevant regardless of age

or pcs i guess

[full fossil]

i see OwO

[strange elk]

Linus just has a great personality

[past egret]

i dont think 12 year olds nowdays want to get into OSRS or WoW as much as 50 year old men

[cosmic coyote]

what is OSRS

[past egret]

exactly

[strange elk]

Old school runescape

[cosmic coyote]

oh right ok cool

[patent pine]

50 year old mans addicted to WOW daily quests, this is the future of civilization

[slate tulip]

Very true. A number of dudes in my gaming group are retired now, having gotten into gaming when ultimate doom was the new hotness

[past egret]

that game prints cash surprisingly, from 50 year old men

[median idol]

Is it sad that I knew what Runscape is

[cosmic coyote]

no i know what runescape is just never played it

[patent pine]

50 year old man still working hourly job, it gives them a sense of accomplishment

[cosmic coyote]

i just dont know acronyms

[patent pine]

We will all end up there

[cosmic coyote]

true

[strange elk]

Why can't I make a joke, bot leave me alone

[patent pine]

find a way out of hourly wage slave job or end up playing WOW for sense of accomplishment

[median idol]

Oh I know I remember playing it back in the day..... And it was released back in 01 (goddamn that makes me feel old)

[cosmic coyote]

theres nothing wrong with earning a living through a salary I think the idea that we all must have a business is flawed

[strange elk]

I'm helping to feed people so meh. I'm chill. They just need to give me my damn raise already

[cosmic coyote]

hussle culture is so toxic

[past egret]

insert political stance on capitalism and its flaws

[patent pine]

Most people need to work shit hourly jobs to make civilization function. This is the tragedy

[cosmic coyote]

how is it shit though

[median idol]

And also remember WoW. It's old enough to drink in Canada.....

[past egret]

its not but i can see where youre coming from

[cosmic coyote]

i guess there are soul crushing jobs

[patent pine]

Nobody wants to be doing this crap. Mindless garbage. AI can replace all of it

[strange elk]

I'm old enough to drink in canada

[cosmic coyote]

I agree we need to shift that way

[fierce moth]

9 months till I can drink

[past egret]

what about the people who depends on these jobs, dont they have a say

[strange elk]

AI is in its infancy still.

[strange elk]

This too

[fierce moth]

Ai is cool

[patent pine]

doesn't matter. if we can automate those jobs, they can put their human capital to work on better things

[cosmic coyote]

the problem is we dont want universal income we still want people to be doing garbage jobs rather than having fair pay and then a robot doing menial tasks

[past egret]

right now the system punishes those who depend on it and rewards those who ditch them behind

there is a way to balance all this but it isnt a snap of a finger to change

takes time and money

[woven ice]

hello

[strange elk]

Also government go brr

[cosmic coyote]

we've lived our entire lives believing that its not constructive if I guy is reading or painting if he doesnt earn money through a job even if its the most stupidest job on earth like being in a cardboard box sweatshop

[past egret]

i hate capitalism like the next guy but i also hate socialism just as much and there definitely is an almost perfect solution

[slate tulip]

Depends what you mean. I enjoy my job

[strange elk]

There really is no solution honestly, greed is greed, overpopulation is a thing and so is scarcity.

[cosmic coyote]

oh right i guess im a socialist lmao

[strange elk]

People need to work else we dont have progress

[cosmic coyote]

but not everything

[past egret]

governments are still ran by con men and thieves so maybe thats why

[cosmic coyote]

i think giving people a choice would be best. right now its like if you dont work you will be homeless

thats the issue

[slate tulip]

I hand no degrees, and a job that is enjoyable and not mindless

[cosmic coyote]

like we could have an incredible scientist but he got his girlfriend pregnant and now is forced to work instead of study (or the other way around great female scientist)

[slate tulip]

No student loan debt to go with it :)

[strange elk]

Yes but if they had a choice not to work everyone would just be at home and nothing would be accomplished unless the people are dedicated, and most people just aren't I dont think

Then again, FOSS does very well so what do I know

[mild elm]

Stop political discussion

[cosmic coyote]

this is the issue

this mentality

[strange elk]

Its not political as much as philosophical

[past egret]

no it is definitely political

[cosmic coyote]

all im saying is that we all get a basic amount of money that is perfectly fine. But if you would like luxury you have to work for it

[slate tulip]

Idk, i have a homelab because i enjoy what i do

[strange elk]

Well like I said, community driven FOSS does well, I did make my own counterargument

[cosmic coyote]

I think there will be a massive shift in work culture regardless because we are going to find all these weird meaningless jobs disappear with technology

[strange elk]

Only time will tell

[cosmic coyote]

I also think this is also what will cause friction between the next generation when it finally happens. "In my day we didnt have AI"

[strange elk]

Thats hilarious

[past egret]

i just hope i get to keep my job

[cosmic coyote]

im wondering what will be the friction point when i have children in the future

[past egret]

probably how there was icebergs in the north and south pole

[cosmic coyote]

guys we had real animals in my day haha

[past egret]

the veldt moment

(read the story is really good)

[strange elk]

I'm going to be out of touch. For sure. I'm still obsessed with cassettes and vinyls and shit, I mean I plan on having a Delorean one day

[past egret]

bad idea, shit car

[strange elk]

Dont care

[cosmic coyote]

i reckon it might be music

dont think it will be technology like with my parents

[strange elk]

I might swap the engine, but everything else for the most part is going to be stock. At most it'll sort of be a sleeper.

[cosmic coyote]

or gaming. i spend 1 hour gaming and im somehow wasting my time but they sit there watching cable for hours and its fine

[lethal copper]

Hm I always kinda thought old soviet "Москвич" cars look super cool

Honestly new 2022/2023 version could've been my first car if it didn't look nothing like original

[cosmic coyote]

nah its retro now so you cool

[strange elk]

I have a cassette slot in my car I just got. Best believe I plan on using it once I'm ready to drive it

[cosmic coyote]

damn thats nuts

[strange elk]

It works too, tested it

It doesn't like my Mixxtape though

Think its got tape detection or something

[cosmic coyote]

175k jesus you rich

new delorean looks like generic future car

[strange elk]

What do you mean new delorean

[median idol]

I have a shit ton of cassette tapes of Arabic music that we would listen to in the car when I was younger. Though they're collecting dust in the basement now so they don't see much usage

[cosmic coyote]

https://www.engadget.com/delorean-reveals-first-look-at-its-alpha-5-four-seat-ev-130031667.html

[strange elk]

Oh. Damn thats new.

[lethal copper]

175k what?

[strange elk]

Yeah no I want the DMC-12

[lethal copper]

Currency matters here

[cosmic coyote]

oh you talking about the russian car

[lethal copper]

Yeah?

[cosmic coyote]

i thought you were talking about the delorean

[twin magnet]

help me pls my computer has no audio and i restarted like 5 times i use headphones btw

[lethal copper]

Oh no of course not

don't deloreans break a lot?

[cosmic coyote]

yea apparently

[cosmic coyote]

im guessing its USD

it's always USD because everyone is American

[lethal copper]

Ah yes

chaotic way is to use NZ dollars and refer to them as "dollars"

[cosmic coyote]

kinda crazy that that is the default currency everyone converts to

[cosmic coyote]

Zimbabwean dollars

[lethal copper]

To me default currency is Ruble now because if I can buy it right now it's either in RUB or in currency very similar in value (Indian rupee)

But yeah rest of the world uses USD for everything

[cosmic coyote]

why ruble

[lethal copper]

Because I use ruble

[cosmic coyote]

oh

[strange elk]

Lmao

[lethal copper]

Why do Canadians use CAD to value everything??? 🤔

[cosmic coyote]

oh that explains the russian car

[lethal copper]

Yeah 😎

[cosmic coyote]

i was like wtf is that vehicle choice

[cosmic coyote]

lol CAD

[strange elk]

I like cars like that. I was checking out ladas for a moment honestly

[lethal copper]

I wish they didn't go the boring generic-modern-car way ;-;

the boxy style was iconic

[strange elk]

Yeah :/

[cosmic coyote]

do people actually drive old ladas

or is that a meme

[strange elk]

Why wouldn't they

[cosmic coyote]

because its old

[small zephyr]

🤨 japanese anime made by bilibili somehoow weird

[lethal copper]

Well not really here in Moscow but in the regions I can see that happening

[strange elk]

They dont fucking die

[cosmic coyote]

fair

[lethal copper]

I did see a very retro looking Moskvich in PERFECT condition a few weeks back

[strange elk]

They are the russian equivalent of a Toyota

[cosmic coyote]

thats pretty much everywhere you see shitboxes in rural areas

yea i doubt that

[lethal copper]

Like, shiny red paint, super new tires, etc.

Some rich guy probably decided to upgrade an old car XD

[cosmic coyote]

older cars hit different

There are some new cars that are exciting offerings though

[lethal copper]

When do y'all recon 7900 (non X) will become generally available? That's when shipping to Russia ""officialy"" starts

[strange elk]

I saw a video where someone literally cut the fucking engine in half and it still ran. Not well, not reliable but it still ran

[lethal copper]

yeah

[cosmic coyote]

that russian guy like 88 garage or whatever

has english voice over

[lethal copper]

Actually I remember seeing a bunch of old ladas back when I was in roughly 3rd grade, I wonder what happened to them

[strange elk]

Same guy who put a bunch of metal balls in the engine bay to see what would happen to the pistons

[cosmic coyote]

Garage 54

what a legend

[lethal copper]

improvised bomb?

[strange elk]

Lmao

It wasn't nearly as exciting as I expected, lada gave no shits

[cosmic coyote]

no safety at all

no blast shields nothing haha

just his bald head

His english dub channel only uploads old content though

I guess it takes time to dub

[strange elk]

Not surprising

[unkempt widget]

https://drop.com/buy/stack-overflow-the-key-v2-macropad
accurate?

i loled seeing that

[past egret]

lol

QC much?

[manic torrent]

Do you mean the cylinders? Because putting them in the engine bay would do zero

[unkempt widget]

still can't get over how my mouse already wore apart

[strange elk]

Yeah sorry

I dont know much about cars, but gonna be learning real soon..

Really don't want to scrap this one I got if I can help it

[balmy lotus]

has anyone played hellblade senuas sacrifice

[ember halo]

Hey all. Anyone know what happened to ROG Rig Reboot 2022?

[fierce moth]

change isnt bad though

[rustic beacon]

I got a dbrand ad with Linus in it on a ltt video and was confused why the video started halfway

[eager notch]

Scott here

[chrome steppe]

Hi Guys, I have found this 3080Ti for sale, the only problem is it has had a repair near the PCIE finger, the seller states it still works perfectly in all games and benchmarks and is still completely stable. Is it worth getting? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325491821279

[fierce moth]

should be fine if the finger is still touching the points on the mobo

[chrome steppe]

The second to last goldfinger on the pciefinger has lost its end, will that be a problem?

he also states to mount it veritcally, if mounting in the normal orientation to use a support bracket

[fierce moth]

well that makes sense as those gpus are heavy

[chrome steppe]

its PRSNT2# that is short

nevermind it actually comes from the factory like that

[ember halo]

What up dude?

[balmy lotus]

It's a joke from the channel Scott the woz
When he introduces himself he says
Hey all Scott here
And you said hey all at the start of your post so he just said Scott here

[ember halo]

Hahaha 😂😂😂 ok gotcha

[sly iris]

does anyone know of any pc storage cleaning software?

for free

[past egret]

defraggler

or the windows one that comes with

[hollow pulsar]

Windirstat. Doesn’t clean, but visualizes your disk usage so you can see how the space is utilized.

[sly iris]

Ok. Thanks

[sly iris]

Is the pagefile.sys file important?

[hollow pulsar]

Yes. Don’t touch that unless you absolutely know what you are doing.

[pine bane]

Thoughts on this basic setup I have? I call it my hobbies corner

[cosmic coyote]

i like that pc stand thing

[dull tapir]

i really like minimalistic clean setup

[cosmic coyote]

meshify nice

[dull tapir]

we have same chairs

[pine bane]

it took work to get it clean. even if i went wired keyboard and mouse this time. the mouse is interersting. it actually is held in place but needed slack so i adjusted it accordingly

[cosmic coyote]

that is a solid mic arm as well

[pine bane]

thanks everyone

[cosmic coyote]

hang on where is the ethernet

[pine bane]

its so good. put roller blade casters on it and its smooth

[hollow pulsar]

I do recommend a mouse mat though

[pine bane]

ran it through attic cat6 goes directly behind out a jack i installed

[cosmic coyote]

legend

[pine bane]

ive always never liked them

[cosmic coyote]

oh yea please get a mouse mat

that table is going to get destroyed

[pine bane]

nah its been fine. been doing this for years

[cosmic coyote]

damn

[pine bane]

also... there is no mouse mat that would fit

well maybe there is

[cosmic coyote]

no no you put everything on top

[pine bane]

idk i might look into it

[cosmic coyote]

like a plain black or something

[river river]

hello
can anyone tell me why do my chrome tabs keep reverting backwards in pc

randomly

[pine bane]

what do you mean

like they wont stay put?

[river river]

like for example i am using a site
it eandomly reverts back to the older page of that site

[pine bane]

mouse has forward and back button keys?

[hollow pulsar]

Clear your cache and set the cache to clear everytime you close your browser.

[river river]

its a normal 3 key mouse
m1 m2 and a scroll wheel

[pine bane]

ah

[river river]

idk it started happening like few days back

and just randomly reverts back when using chrome

is there a dedicated chanel for such issues?

[fossil frost]

i would also suggest doing quite an indepth malware scan too

[mossy pendant]

Okay, so do this.

• Run a MalwareBytes scan
• Run a ADWCleaner scan
• Run a hitman pro scan
• Run a super anti spyware scan

All of these are free

[neon mesa]

you for real?

all these bull software?

well bull is a hyperbole but still not needed

just check windows defender for exclusions, then do a full scan

[mossy pendant]

There’s no harm

It’d take an hour max, which is a no brainer

[neon mesa]

quite overkill for a basic mainstream virus

to do... 4 entire apps

[mossy pendant]

Not really. Especially something deeper-routed like a root kit.

[neon mesa]

malwarebytes is probably the only one actual necessary if you don't like windows defender

[mossy pendant]

They all serve separate functions

[neon mesa]

something that simply reverts your browser to chrome is probably not some big time hacker's virus

[mossy pendant]

But it may be a payload

Or potentially a sort of RAT

[kindred coral]

Maybe cleaning your history in browser you usually use could solve the problem

I had something like that on mom's pc and this solved her problem

[mossy pendant]

Or just resetting the browser to factory settings

You could connect it with a sync account to make sure you wouldn’t lose your history

Then just run whatever tool the browser has to reset everything

[kindred coral]

Well yeah, just reinstalling or deleting all saved things in your usual browser could save you heck of trouble. It takes up to 5 mins

[kindred coral]

That's actually purpose to make sure on losing everything that is there so it won't come back

You can find your fav sites again and if not, just copy your links into some list into notepad or something

[balmy lotus]

In 2 weeks my name will turn purple

[eager notch]

This guy doesn't watch Scott the Woz

[kindred coral]

Congratulations

[full fossil]

yo

anyone got an old gpu that isnt being used?

[atomic meteor]

Yo ive been seeing this socket thingy with a windows looking logo on it,, ppl remove the level included with the mobo and put this square thingy and they screw it in to hold the cpu anyone knows where that part is from and why would someone put it on instead of the normal lever locking mechanism

[kindred coral]

Mby one day my gtx970

[atomic meteor]

Yh 1660s

[full fossil]

are you willing to give it out?

[kindred coral]

Uhhhh no?

[atomic meteor]

for free?

[full fossil]

yeah

[mossy pendant]

If you pay for shipping lmao

[atomic meteor]

no wtf

[kindred coral]

GPUs aren't free kid, you need to work and save up money to get your hands on one

[mossy pendant]

I’ll send you an intel motherboard from 2000

If you pay for shipping

[kindred coral]

Just like I got on mine beloved 3060

[mossy pendant]

Brand new

[kindred coral]

Having a pic? Just wanna see

[full fossil]

actually im into old tech, its my hobby to collect unused computer parts and give em life

[kindred coral]

1660s isn't much of old tech

But I'm having old Tornado

[mossy pendant]

Actually it might be from 2006. Haven’t opened it in a while

[full fossil]

damn

[stiff shore]

i switched cyberpunk to veryhard and its still too easy

[kindred coral]

2 Duo >>

I want that mb

[polar fern]

Sigh

[kindred coral]

I have duo

[mossy pendant]

I got it free at a garage sale lol

[kindred coral]

Loool, that's cool 😄

[mossy pendant]

Don’t think it’s ever been used.

[full fossil]

you could make it into an old retro gaming setup

[mossy pendant]

I don’t even got money for a non-retro average setup my guy lmao

[kindred coral]

I will envy that one for sure.

It's good to have something like that

[polar fern]

I miss garage sale & trash day curb finds.

[mossy pendant]

Yeah it’s definitely cool

[full fossil]

lmao im sure you'll get one soon

[full fossil]

DUDE SAME

[mossy pendant]

There’s this “dump your junk” event near me where you can just dump electronics and other shit

[kindred coral]

Duos and old GPUs aren't that expensive tho

[mossy pendant]

I got a working monitor completely free

[white fractal]

TFW you have retro hardware that wasn’t retro when you bought it new.

[mossy pendant]

And I’m too cheap to buy a better one lmao

[full fossil]

true they are pretty cheap on ebay

[kindred coral]

As long as it works

[mossy pendant]

Imagine if I used a VIIV on it

[onyx basin]

hi

[full fossil]

Offtopic, but Battlefield 1 or Battlefield V, which one should I keep on my PC?

i remember finding an old ram stick at my school library, it had 128mb ram

[kindred coral]

Lmao if some day you'll like to give/sell that motherboard, I want it

[mossy pendant]

Idk how much it’s even worth haha

I got a 2003 dell as well

[kindred coral]

I have ram, psu, procesor, I would love to make it run

[mossy pendant]

With an insane 256 mb of ram

[full fossil]

insane

[kindred coral]

If you want, figure it out and if you wanted we can make deal later

[full fossil]

but be careful with old psu's

old ones are kind of dangerous

[kindred coral]

I know it works alright since it's used grandma's pc

With 2 duo, but it's Lenovo shit, so can't put some good gpu and make it work better

I have also 4 GBs of ram, HDD

It all works, just appreciated better mb

And it could be good pc

Having smooth windows 10

[high wind]

I would give 100 credits to thou who thart shave Linus's beard

[full fossil]

So. For 10gbe you dont need a router that uses 10gbe ports right? Just a switch that has 10gbe ports that goes to your router? Or does it need to be modem>10gbe port>router>10gbe port>switch?

[fossil frost]

internally, your switch can do 10gbe, and you can connect that to a 1gig router, and your machines to the 10gbe switch, and you will get 10gbe internally, but 1gb externally

[full fossil]

Would that external 1gb nerf things though?

[fossil frost]

do you have 10gbit internet?

[full fossil]

Yes my work does

[fossil frost]

then the 1gbit router connected to your 10gbit internet, will limit you to 1gbit

[high wind]

giga-whaaaa

[full fossil]

So, what would be a good router to go to then?

[fossil frost]

a 10gbit one

[full fossil]

[high wind]

best brand? DLink? hmm

[full fossil]

You got me there

Yea whats the best brand i meant

[high wind]

well disregard brands that start with H

[full fossil]

I cant even think of any

[high wind]

oh no u deednt

[full fossil]

Huawei?

[high wind]

mmm hmmm

I guess u havent heard

[fossil frost]

HP starts with a H, and are some of the best you can get... :S

[high wind]

pffft ... hmm ok HP make routers?

[full fossil]

But no fr whats the best brand to go to for routers

[fossil frost]

there isnt a "best brand" because the usage case for them is so wide... just go with whatever suits your specs, and has the best price... right now

their prices fluctuate more wildly than crypto too

[high wind]

😳

crypto should be called gamblo

[full fossil]

Alr thank you

Price won't matter since its company money though

I just need a good router with 10gbe ports

Dont carr about wifi quality at all.

[high wind]

Belkin????

seems like a good brand

[fossil frost]

ive had dlink, tp-link, asus (home), HP, dell, netgear, belkin.... all do what you ask of them with no real issues

[high wind]

non of which are 'sponsored' by an authoritarian state

😏

[fossil frost]

draytech are supposed to be good too but never used them

[full fossil]

Ive always loved dell for their tight qc and good warranty

Their actual pc's and stuff suck but monitor wise ive loved them

[high wind]

lol fair enuf

[fossil frost]

had to use their warranty on a work laptop once... they sent an engineer to the office and replaced a dead daughter board right there in our office

[full fossil]

Thats what i mean. Dell has great warranty

And in my experience the best quality control

Just dont buy their actual desktop computers

[fossil frost]

they have a great corporate warranty... but their consumer warranty is dogshit

[high wind]

ooft

[full fossil]

They have an option to upgrade to the corporate warranty for like $50-150 depending what product you buy

[fossil frost]

their consumer warranty is "you pay almost 50% as much as the product for a warranty upgrade, and you still get fuck all"

[full fossil]

Idk if its a new thing but its been presented to me

[full fossil]

Oof is that what the upgrade was that was presented to me?

[fossil frost]

probably 😄

[high wind]

depends how many protectoids are working in the customer relations team

[full fossil]

Oof

Idk though i only have good things to say about dells monitors and laptops

But their desktops are horrendous junk

[high wind]

protectoids ... resist the consumer, protect the employer

[full fossil]

Does dell even make routers

I see they make switches

[sonic barn]

I'm gonna buy a new onsite warranty for my thinkpad, its like 70$ cad and I can get a new battery, new case and fix stickers

[fossil frost]

they may call them "edge routers" or "integrated firewalls"

[full fossil]

Thank you

[high wind]

aka dodgy obstructions

firewalls protect drivers from engine fires

[full fossil]

Finding a dell router will be a nightmare

Who has the best quality control among the other brands mentioned

[high wind]

^ probably Japanese companies

TBH...

[full fossil]

Which of the router companies are made in japan

I didnt even think of japanese components

[high wind]

Dude, I bought a Japanese A/C portable unit, it is fantastic lol, the remote has an LED screen and the quality of the A/C seems good. Way better than the Honeywell unit I had previous...

(Brand=POLO)

I respect Japanese products...

[full fossil]

I like japanese, canadian, and American made products a lot xD

Seems a lot of tech stuff is mostly china and taiwan though

[high wind]

hmm depends on the product

[full fossil]

Agreed

I usually like japanese electronics. Canadians make some damn good electronics too like moon audio

[high wind]

I mean I would happily buy a gigabyte mobo

[full fossil]

Moon audio is hard to beat but also $$$

[full fossil]

Not me

[high wind]

ohhh

pfft.. I probably have 15 years of XP, with Asus Giga, MSI, and others... To be honest I think Gigabyte are the most reliable mobo vendor over the years for sure

[full fossil]

I grew up on windows 95

[high wind]

My worst mobo was an Intel branded board ... omg...

[full fossil]

Then went to xp then 7 and vista and 8.1 and 10

My worst mobo was a gigabyte unironically

[high wind]

omgggg

[full fossil]

Several bad gigabyte boards

[high wind]

hmmm

[full fossil]

The best boards ive had were asus lol

The best mid tiers were asrock and msi that ive had

[high wind]

pfft well TBH I have not had a major issue with Gigabyte boards, I've had four of them

[full fossil]

But asus has always been rock solid for me other than the time they put the wrong capacitors on the boards and put them upside down

[high wind]

yeah... Asus are ok, but I have had problems with their mobo's

[full fossil]

But shit happens

Like what

[high wind]

I mean .... it depends on what model board you have, every manuf. has their problems with specific boards

[high wind]

Like difficulty getting the onboard ausio to work properly

and other issues, like PCIE mapping

but Asus boards are not too bad compared to other brands

In all honesty I have had least issues with Gigabyte boards....

So I will continue to buy Gigabyte boards...

[full fossil]

I use sound cards

[full fossil]

In my experience thats always been a bios issue

But with gigabyte. Even my friends have experienced this irl. They end up self bricking themselves and end up in an endless boot cycle off on off on never being able to post. And only fix is to rma with gigabyte so they can "reflash" the board. Ive had it happen to every single gigabyte board I've ever had and my irl friends had it happen to him three times with gigabyte

Im on almost year 10 with an asus board without a single issue

The gigabyte boards literally tell the power supply to go off on off on on its own in an endless cycle and pushing power button does nothing and the only way to end it is to yank the power cord

[high wind]

without going into specifics ... some specifics I can't recall... I find Asus being an ok brand of mobo, but overall Gigabyte always seems to offer a more reliable platform.
ok .. reading that edge case, I have not seen those issues. But every brand will have those edge case issues... It depends on how the company resolves those issues.

[full fossil]

Gigabyte was quick about it but the fact that it happened again and again after rma's made me sour

I dont care to have to rma repeatedly

[high wind]

hmmm

bad luck I guess

It really depends on the user.... I have not seen those issues

In saying that, I have had some very good Asus boards...

But I prefer Gigabyte 🙂 at least for now lol

[full fossil]

https://www.techspot.com/community/topics/computer-turns-on-then-off-then-on-etc.87397/

I mean its a common issue with gigabyte themselves on a quick search xD

[high wind]

RAM training?

[full fossil]

On an old board?

[high wind]

I had issues getting my DDR5 to work with my 12700K

[full fossil]

Doubt because it always works flawless and then this randomly occurs

Like before it always happened around month 6 for me

After the boards been flawless otherwise before

[high wind]

Edge case issue

[full fossil]

Meaning?

[high wind]

their mobo's work fine for 99% of users

but that 1% of the edge case issues

you fel into

[full fossil]

Eh i wouldnt say its only 1%, do a search on "gigabyte motherboards turning off on in endless cycle no post"

[high wind]

omg... discord type delay

[full fossil]

Youll be shocked how common it is with gigabyte

[high wind]

pfftttt

I mean to me it sounds like a RAM XMP incompatibility issue

which happens with all vendors

especially with DDR5 recently

blame the RAM vendors, not the mobo vendors

ok I need to sleep now, night night 👋 😋

[wind pulsar]

Oh my gawd, Gigabyte so baaaad

[wispy marsh]

Hey, what do you guys think of this?https://enroll.isc2.org/product?catalog=CC-SPT-DESC

I want to take the exam

[full fossil]

Im not saying that

Im just saying its more common than 1% and gigabyte hasnt seemed to fix it as its a problem even on modern mobos from them

Akira blowing what im saying out of proportion based on how often its happened to me after trying various mobo brands since the 90's

[fierce moth]

i dont really care about a brand of a mobo, as long it has the features i want im fine with it

and it has somewhat decent reviews

Does anybody know if there’s a usb 3 to a 3.5 mm headphone jack? Or usb 3 to usb c?

I am in dire need of it

Even a usb c to 3.5 mm headphone jack will work

[burnt bone]

Honestly I just look up what VRMs they use, and get the best one

[sonic barn]

yes they are like 1$

[tawny widget]

Really?

[burnt bone]

I've had many motherboards fail on me in the past due to bad VRMs and I was so sick and tired of it that I went with the third best AM4 motherboard in terms of VRM.

The second best would be the AsRock Taichi or MSI Creator. And the undisputed king is EVGA's only AMD motherboard.

[tawny widget]

The ones you’re talking about I know about, but I need the reverse of that. Like an input to output

[sonic barn]

Thanks

[jaunty compass]

You are aware most of those won't have an integrated

What's it called
A dac

Basically the audio quality will suck

Noticably

[sonic barn]

its a dongle the dac is on the phone or pc

you don't need an external setup

else you would need one for a phone

[jaunty compass]

When he buys them, they'll see what I mean

[sonic barn]

I don't see people carrying around a dac that's 2 pounds plugged into their earphones or headphones

[fading horizon]

https://www.amazon.com/Intel-i7-12700F-2-1GHz-6xxChipset-BX8071512700F/dp/B09NPJDPVG

This legit? Ratings are good but seller is sus

[jaunty compass]

The good USB c to 3.5 mm jacks have a built in dac

The good ones being like
The ones apple and Samsung ship

[sonic barn]

they don't have a dac in them

[jaunty compass]

If you don't have a Dac in the cable the audio quality is going to be terrible

[jaunty compass]

Yes they do

[sonic barn]

you can think of it as soldering a wire to another

there's no dac

[red steeple]

i just got an ipad for art and im doing a massive transfer to icloud. will it continue uploading even if its locked or do i have to keep the device on while its uploading?

[sonic barn]

a dac is for decoding sound

digital to analogue converter

[jaunty compass]

Yeah. USB c to 3.5 mm jacks without a dac built into the cable are awful

That's like
Common knowledge

[sonic barn]

optiplex refurb on best buy for 800$ 3070ti

[jaunty compass]

Spamming the question will get you nowhere

[sonic barn]

they don't

there's no room for a dac

[jaunty compass]

And yet the apple and Samsung cables both have a Dac built in

Strange

[sonic barn]

then just get the samsung one

+2$

https://www.amazon.ca/Adapter-Female-Headphone-Hi-Res-Samsung/dp/B094VDFM2T

it just reduces noise

[jaunty compass]

The Samsung ones even advertised a dac chip in them too

So why did you maintain that they didn't have one

Goofy aah

Literally in the link you sent 💀

[simple quail]

the Apple USB-C headphone adapter has worked pretty well from my experience

[jaunty compass]

That's why they don't suck

[simple quail]

it's also one of the cheaper ones, interestingly

[sonic barn]

I have a google one for my pixel

[blissful zinc]

Hey

[sonic barn]

the only thing you gain is a small chip

[jaunty compass]

Google advertises it as having a dac

[jaunty compass]

That chip can make a lot of difference

[sonic barn]

but when you search up audio dac on google you see a big external thing

@tawny widget https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004189805006.html so get this one since there's a dac 3.75$ cad

[jaunty compass]

Sure, but those are meant to drive larger audio equipment

Not convert digital audio to analogue audio for your earbuds from probably a dollar store

[sonic barn]

those are samsung ones

[jaunty compass]

I was referring to the message before the link.

[jaunty compass]

As in, this

[full fossil]

Good, $800, prebuilt should not be in the same sentence together. Ask it like this,

NVIDIA

will they ever redesign their control panel? I mean it's pretty outdated and stupidly filled with lost space

[jaunty compass]

When will they make GeForce experience not need email?

Probably not for a long time if ever

And if they do, it'll probably be because of a European law

[sonic barn]

u don't

just use the drivers on their website

[graceful burrow]

He asked for geforce experience not just raw drivers...

[jaunty compass]

You don't need GeForce experience, but you can't use it without email

What are you talking about you goofball

[graceful burrow]

We all know you can just nab the drivers

[sonic barn]

I don't care about giving my email to get alerts for drivers

[sonic barn]

geforce experience = drivers

[jaunty compass]

GeForce experience did other stuff that you couldn't do without it

[jaunty compass]

This is just incorrect

[sonic barn]

there's no more game streaming

so geforce experience is just drivers now

[jaunty compass]

You can't use Nvidia shadowplay without GeForce experience, can you

[graceful burrow]

Well that's just not true even if you hate the program kek

[sonic barn]

true

[fading belfry]

i never used geforce experience, and regarding what you guys are saying, i'm not missing out lol

[sonic barn]

but I don't stream

[graceful burrow]

Can't use their "game optimization" either (you wouldn't want to)

[jaunty compass]

There are still features arbitrarily locked behind it that shouldn't be

[graceful burrow]

That doesn't mean it doesn't exist?

[sonic barn]

well a lot of people don't stream

[graceful burrow]

Tons of people use shadow play

[sonic barn]

for streaming

[graceful burrow]

It doesn't just stream bud

[sonic barn]

what else

[jaunty compass]

You can also use it for recording

[graceful burrow]

Records gameplay to a buffer so you can save the past x amount of minutes

[sonic barn]

just use windows + g

super easy

[graceful burrow]

Nah I really like nvidia control panel
It's simple, not frivolous

[sonic barn]

I'll stream amorous on twitch /s

[graceful burrow]

I don't even think you can stream with shadowplay I won't lie

[jaunty compass]

Is the laptop plugged into a wall

[sonic barn]

bestbuy.com is different than canada version

[fierce moth]

nah nah, unregistered hypercam is the best

[jaunty compass]

Are your power settings set to high performance mode?

Are you thermal throttling?

[tawny widget]

You know, the intel graphics center is really underrated. It functionally doesn’t do ANYTHING but it looks really clean

[abstract sluice]

I want BlueTooth, WiFi, BIOS Reset, Easy Overclock, and good RAM sppeds but they both have that

[burnt bone]

Probably not using the dedicated gpu

[graceful burrow]

Intel ux designers working overtime

[jaunty compass]

Is your laptop running so hot that it's slowing itself down so it doesn't catch fire and melt

Thermal throttling is a safety feature so your laptop doesn't die

[fading belfry]

Well it looks good but the fact that they deleted Full sRGB for people on HDMI 1.4 is attroceous. Like IT WORKED BEFORE. Why remove it???

[jaunty compass]

You probably aren't using the dedicated GPU then
What are the laptop's specs

And what are you trying to play

[graceful burrow]

Might help to know the specs of the laptop
Just a thought, and the performance you're getting in games

Which ryzen 5

Which

[jaunty compass]

Well
The GTX 1650 isn't a very fast GPU
What game are you playing

[fading belfry]

5500

[jaunty compass]

What game and what res

[graceful burrow]

Just open task manager jesus

[jaunty compass]

Because it might just be that your expectations were too high

At least with a 1650

[tawny widget]

It’s fine

[fading belfry]

croust!

[graceful burrow]

Look at the performance tab and click cpu to see your cpu model?

[jaunty compass]

With Minecraft, how much ram did you allocate the game

And is the fps limit set to vsync?

[tawny widget]

It should be able to run mc with about 200-250 on medium settings no problem

[abstract sluice]

I want BlueTooth, WiFi, BIOS Reset, Easy Overclock, and good RAM sppeds but they both have that

[jaunty compass]

Newer versions of the game are really unoptimized but

[graceful burrow]

Yeah I heard it the first time I didn't respond because I don't care

[fading belfry]

i told you already

[jaunty compass]

How much ram did you allocate?
Letting the game use a little more could help a bit but I don't play the newer versions much

You allocated 8 gigs to Minecraft

You know what allocating ram to the game means right

[graceful burrow]

Sounds to me like you should make a post in #1027757333117415424 tbh

[tawny widget]

You’re definitely using the igpu, and I don’t know how to help you switc, although some games like metal gear revengance let’s you choose the tou in the settings

[jaunty compass]

Yeah

[sonic barn]

https://www.newegg.com/asus-rog-strix-g10dk/p/3D5-000F-02M17

On a Radeon igpu they should be getting a lot more than 40 fps anyway

[sonic barn]

3060uyh

[jaunty compass]

Something else is wrong

[tawny widget]

Overheating probably. Although 19.1 is really intensive on the gpu and ram

[sonic barn]

@full fossil this one is better

[jaunty compass]

That's what I thought earlier but they said it wasn't that hot so idk

[graceful burrow]

[jaunty compass]

Maybe they just didn't actually check

[sonic barn]

its a asus rog strix pc

[graceful burrow]

Ngl I thought it was just the gpu I didn't look

Still wouldn't pay it tho

[sonic barn]

they want a prebuilt

[jaunty compass]

That case has terrible airflow lol

The thermals in that thing are horrible

[tawny widget]

On tech support it says he has 37 mods so I guess that solves the mystery.

[sonic barn]

find a better pc for playing amongus vr @jaunty compass

[jaunty compass]

It has fake ventilation at the front

[jaunty compass]

They're probably running shaders or something then lol

[tawny widget]

Yeah

[jaunty compass]

Yeah no they're just dumb if that's the case
Shaders can be really intensive

Inb4 they're trying to use seus ptgi

[graceful burrow]

Nah he'd be getting like 4 or 5 fps with a path tracer kek

[burnt bone]

Windows Settings > Display > Graphics Settings > Browse the app/game you want to run on the dGPU > In the options button under the app name, tell Windows to use High Performance Mode

[graceful burrow]

They're running a lot of mods, the problem has been solved

For course LTT had to talk about all geometeric vomit cases instead of something actually useful like DIY aluminum T-slot cases that you literally could configure to have 2 4090s with an ITX mobo or mod to fit 3x420 rads in a water cooling build https://youtu.be/FPF7Z7TLdsk

Your mother... Doesn't allow you to build it yourself.

Huh...

[jagged dune]

My family doesn't think I'm able to build one

They aren't stopping me from buying one tho

[graceful burrow]

Build one anyway

[jagged dune]

I will, I am perfectly able to.. I have the biggest damn nerd to help me with it as well so... I'm pretty sure I'm capable

just one problem, I don't have a lot of $ rn

Instead, for now I got a prebuild they got be basically as an Xmas gift ig.. It's gona go to my sister once I get my custom

I wanna comm art but the only artists I like... he does bids and usally the prices go into the $500

Yea now you know how I feel

[jagged dune]

honestly, I don't even know HOW I got her.. She came to ME ngl

[burnt bone]

It's cheaper to get a used surface tablet, install Krita and get painting

btw he starts the bids at like $15 ;-;

Unless you're Linus. Then I don't think there's anything to dox

[jagged dune]

There's a thing called "privacy", NGL It's a bit weird for you to just be asking for a pic of me and her... Or you just asking for me to rate her out of 10..

[burnt bone]

Yeah especially since you're just a stranger to him at the moment

Well lets treat this as a human social behaviour lesson. It's odd to come up to a complete stranger and immediately ask them a picture of their SO

[jagged dune]

I don't even know you... I've never met you.. I've never seen you.. and just out of NOWHERE asking for a picture of me and my girlfriend AND asking me to rate out of 10....

It's just not something you do.. Common standards..

an unspoken rule if you will

[neon mesa]

this is what AI is for

[jagged dune]

but TYPH is good, I've shown you his art, Remember Mimi??

[neon mesa]

mm let's not talk about that here not the place

now why pay 500 bucks for one

when you can get 1000 for free

AI is the future

[jagged dune]

I could just pay $5 for 3months and get a free OC request tbf

[jagged dune]

Like my current banner

[burnt bone]

Honestly as a dude trying to learn art the whole AI thing just makes me fucking depressed

[neon mesa]

what gpu do you have

[burnt bone]

I don't see my skills as valuable at all anymore

[jagged dune]

what?..

[neon mesa]

wait i read it wrong

i also do drawings but i decided to embrace AI

like either join or get fucked

[jagged dune]

Logic 100.
good lord

[burnt bone]

Stop being so imbecillic

[jagged dune]

how am I THE WEIRDO? you came outta NOWHERE asking me to rate my gf out of 10 THEN asked for basically a pic of her.

[neon mesa]

<@&750150305383186585> @full fossil harassing someone for no reason, overall making an uncomfortable chat space

[burnt bone]

I'm not gonna embrace AI. At least not for my own art. Maybe for more commodity trading stuff I will.

But when I do art I wanna have it be as made by me as possible.

[neon mesa]

like AI is a tool, you can use it to your advantage
like how traditional artists used to hate digital art programs

[jagged dune]

tbf I like AI that draws off of descriptions. (that is if people are trying to claim it as "Oh look what i drew"

However I will NOT support AI that TRACES and REDRAWS

[burnt bone]

.... that's every AI

[neon mesa]

not really, tracing and redraws probably refers to image to image operation

[burnt bone]

.... AI literally works by you feeding GPUs a ton of data, using some sort of model, to produce a result

[neon mesa]

but really, text to image produces basically an entirely new image

[pine bane]

i asked chat gpt to write a commercial for ltt.

"Hey everyone! It's Linus here from Linus Tech Tips and I'm here to tell you about why you should trust us for all your tech needs.

[jagged dune]

bruh.

[neon mesa]

each image is only 2 bytes large
you can't tell me it "copies" from a 2 byte image

[burnt bone]

What advantage does it give me?

It creates art all on its own

[neon mesa]

inspiration?
quick way to get a picture for your idea?

[burnt bone]

I have little to no imput

[neon mesa]

no don't use the AI art as the final product lol

use it as reference only

or get pose ideas

[burnt bone]

The AI completes the entire image, it will create the final product. I mean you kind alluded to the idea of using it to create a thousand OCs.

[neon mesa]

and with image to image, you are basically working with the AI

you draw, you let AI do finishing touches

[pine bane]

now i asked chat gpt to make an ad for the ltt water bottle

"Hey everyone! It's Linus here and I'm here to let you know about our newest product - the Linus Tech Tips Store Water Bottle. This stylish bottle is perfect for anyone on the go, and will keep you hydrated all day long.

[burnt bone]

So... What's your current art workflow anyways?

[neon mesa]

i don't draw often, but i have one example of AI improving my art

[jaunty compass]

Not even wrong

It is definitely clunkier than the actual ad spots but it would still be serviceable

I don't think anyone asked

[jagged dune]

tbf I use AI art, I'm using my PFP that was drawn off a description and my banner is redrawings of a picture

While they are the same the AI works differently... Personally if you are using the AI drawing off off a description you feed it and not claiming it as something you yourself drew then I believe it's all fine and cool. But people who feed AI images and ask for it to directly trace over it and redraw isn't something to support.

dudes being weird, proceeds to call me racist for him being weird, and now is being just an even worse weirdo... gone when

[jaunty compass]

I'm fine with ai art, it helps that AI art can't be copyrighted

[fossil dirge]

Yeah I talked about this on the Barnacules Discord server and on Crunchyroll but I got no response yet

[jagged dune]

ah ofc, now that people are hating you for it its a "joke"

[burnt bone]

I'm very iffy with AI art. I'll have to accept that I am obsolete.

[jaunty compass]

I'm mostly fine with it because I know for a fact a lot of people can't draw or paint well and that commissions can be very expensive

But I don't think it will ever replace human artists. At least not for a long time

My pfp was made by a human

[burnt bone]

What I'm worried about is what AI will take next.... I don't want to get a hobby that will be replaced by AI

[jagged dune]

I like ur art so

I'd rather support people like you/my gf who spend time to actually draw and create something then a machine or program.
they'll NEVER be the same

[full fossil]

Lemme see it art

[jaunty compass]

Ai can't draw hands either so

Humans aren't obsolete yet

[burnt bone]

I appreciate your endearment :)

Maybe I can try get some inspiration from AI art

[jagged dune]

don't get me wrong AI art is kinda beautiful but it doesnt have the same effect as would someone actually drawing

[neon mesa]

i turned on RTX for my drawing

it is an older drawing, made it like a year ago

sadly the fur ai stable diffusion model is used for nsfw art too but sfw art looks really good

[burnt bone]

The problem with AI art on furгies is that there's a way way larger variation of body shape and colour.

[neon mesa]

now with more niche stuff it fails horribly

[neon mesa]

like i made a planegirl drawing and it fails horribly to improve it

[burnt bone]

Ngl as a final product that's good enough

[full fossil]

Are you a cat girl

[hardy moat]

[jagged dune]

well, it was a fullbody suit if im not mistaken so ofc it wont translate properly
would be hard to depict whats actually happening

[sonic barn]

that one is stable diffusion and all of stable diffusion and midjourney basically use 1 artist

[jaunty compass]

it definitely looks ai generated but idk how i can tell

there's nothing wrong with it that i can see

[jagged dune]

No

[jaunty compass]

there's just something about it but i have no idea what it is

[burnt bone]

Run through an image of Linus through a furrу art AI

[jaunty compass]

i'll run wide linus through it lol

[neon mesa]

it just can't

[jaunty compass]

words just get minced

[full fossil]

Uh huh

[neon mesa]

we still have chance against machines, for now

[jagged dune]

As i said, It was a fullbody suit soo.. the AI doesnt have any good features to define off of

[jaunty compass]

rise it's game over man
game over 💀

[burnt bone]

Looking at chatGPT's advancements, we'll all be obsolete in like five years time x.x

Zack3D.ckpt

you might know this one @sonic barn

[sonic barn]

never heard of it

[neon mesa]

ah i expected more

[burnt bone]

man

[jaunty compass]

💀

[sonic barn]

not a complete degen

[neon mesa]

it makes nice fur art but it struggles to meet your exact specifications

[jaunty compass]

the future is now

[full fossil]

You?

[sonic barn]

yes

[burnt bone]

what a time to be alive
as in
a horrible fucking time

[sonic barn]

I am a degen but not completely

[neon mesa]

you embrace AI and you'll stay relevant

[sonic barn]

embrace the pathowogen

[jaunty compass]

we have ai and yet companies still can't make controllers that don't drift

well, they can but they want to save 5 cents and make you buy a new controller in a year

[neon mesa]

while my classmates don't know chatGPT
i know
now i will dominate

make use of it while you can

[jaunty compass]

hall effect sticks go brrrr

[neon mesa]

because everything always gets ruined when everyone uses it

[burnt bone]

I just don't like how short sighted all of this is

It just rubs wrong

[sonic barn]

wait until the ai becomes a fur e and invents fursona research facilities

[burnt bone]

It's like yeah, the incentive is there, but it really rubs me the wrong way and it fucks with my conscience a lot

[jaunty compass]

humanity is short sighted :D

we don't learn from our mistakes either

[burnt bone]

yeah that's why I'm... Being cautious about this

[neon mesa]

it's really inevitable

really just make use of it while you can

[burnt bone]

Man it's like a spit in the face. I'm basically valueless now

[sonic barn]

I just think its cool, imagine if you can automate a server or linux os with an ai assistant

[burnt bone]

In this stupid hellhole of an Earth instead of AI automating labour so you have more time for art, art is automated

[jaunty compass]

jarvas

why did my wife leave me

that's a joke i've never been married

[neon mesa]

chatGPT is still dumb i gaslight it so easily

i made it say dictators are good

[jaunty compass]

based chatgpt

[sonic barn]

fur e artist will always be more valued than an ai because the ai doesn't know about what ref sheets and how we want our art portrayed. Its like the same thing with music, music can never be ai driven at least in bulk since there's so many copyrighted melodies and stuff and the ai doesn't understand abstract stuff

[jaunty compass]

well
it doesn't know about ref sheets for now

[sonic barn]

I can't have the ai create art of my sona

even if I give it my ref it turns it into a bat

[neon mesa]

just needs (actual) dedicated AI art model, but it will struggle for quite a while without image to image assitance

[sonic barn]

nick wilde chat bot

[jaunty compass]

h

[sonic barn]

imagine if someone were to put a ai inside a protogen irl

and then it goes to some con

[neon mesa]

wild

you can use chatGPT to generate prompt for AI image generation btw

well they just suck at it

[sonic barn]

chatgpt can roleplay

[neon mesa]

chatGPT told me how to make C4

[sonic barn]

owo what's this?

[jagged dune]

[jaunty compass]

there's a dedicated rp chatbot called character.ai or something

[eager venture]

Could u use chatgpt3 to write the code to make chatgpt4

[sonic barn]

I will try to talk to nick wilde

[jaunty compass]

doing this is how you start skynet

once you make the ai make a better ai

[jagged dune]

elon musk, catgirls when.

[wraith sonnet]

so my original planned build for LTX is a bit expensive...

my alternate idea is actually building the spite build

https://pcpartpicker.com/user/NedOfTheNet/saved/LDRNzy

[pliant karma]

amd cpu intel cooler I see where you going

[neon mesa]

the fuckkkk

[ruby venture]

Windows 11 or 10?

[neon mesa]

you absolute monster

[pliant karma]

I’ve seen worst but this is up there

[wraith sonnet]

that board uses lga 115x mounting because the controller for thunderbolt had some weird restrictions on ITX

[neon mesa]

replace with blowey matron

[pliant karma]

The loudest pc at https://lttstore.com/

[neon mesa]

this too

[pliant karma]

Shit ltx

[wraith sonnet]

everything technically works here

[ruby venture]

Which is better for gaming

[neon mesa]

the case got no dvd drive bay

[wraith sonnet]

you do need an hdmi to displayport

[wraith sonnet]

qbx has a slim ODD bay if you pull back the top panel

[pliant karma]

Lol yea you not wrong actually I vouch this build. See who starts asking at ltx

[wraith sonnet]

I have spent a year working on this list out of pure spite

[neon mesa]

also GT 710 is not funny enogh, get a GTS 250

[wraith sonnet]

I can't reasonably obtain one

[neon mesa]

is it the worst you can get?

[rugged bridge]

Ahh shoot

[eager venture]

Pls i need help https://discord.com/channels/375436620578684930/1063959908178984970

[rugged bridge]

Gotta sub back to fp

[neon mesa]

if you really wanna spite someone get windows Me

[wraith sonnet]

I understand that the psu is a bit out of character but I want to swap in some good hardware for stuff

[ruby venture]

No nobody knows?

[wraith sonnet]

I can actually use vista and people hated it too

[pliant karma]

Lol

[wraith sonnet]

11 these days

[ruby venture]

For gaming

[neon mesa]

i think win 8 (not 8.1) is more hated

[neon mesa]

did he stutter?

[pliant karma]

I could update to windows 11 but ehhh if 10 works for me I see no need to update

[wraith sonnet]

during launch 11 was bad but as of 22h2 I have had more issues with 10 than 11 especially for customers

[pliant karma]

We’re you part of the insider program?

[neon mesa]

10 is a mess

[wraith sonnet]

the windows 10 update servers go down way too often

[wraith sonnet]

yes but I also do retail computer repair my guy

[neon mesa]

11 feels just like 10 but better looking

[ruby venture]

I ordered my new pc

[wraith sonnet]

it's funnier than that, according to the registry windows 11 is windows 10

[rugged bridge]

Win 10s taskbar is unbeatable tho ngl

[kindred coral]

Congratulations

Specs?

[pliant karma]

Ah you see that’s where I made it so when I open settings and check for updates it retrieves them. At no time does windows auto update without my permission

Basically auto update disabled

[neon mesa]

@wraith sonnet if you can get i5 5775c you should try that

but it is rare so prob not

[summer folio]

It was kinda hard when it was new/on the shelfs even

[ruby venture]

Rtx 4080 ,
Intel i9 13900kf
Ddr5 6000mhz
Asrock z790
M.2 4.0 7000mbs
1000w psu

[wraith sonnet]

I specifically am using this board for the joke of intel stock cooler on AM4

[summer folio]

[wraith sonnet]

also the 4100 doesn't do gen 4 pcie iirc

[pliant karma]

Ehh no

[kindred coral]

Really nice

[neon mesa]

ok thennnn Get R3 1200 for more funny

[ruby venture]

Got it for €300

[neon mesa]

4100 is too new

[wraith sonnet]

then it's a notable compromise rather than an absolute waste

[kindred coral]

Wait how?

[ruby venture]

Sold my old one, 300 out of pocket

[kindred coral]

Ohhh

[neon mesa]

might as well get FX 💀

[ruby venture]

So I was like fuck it

[wraith sonnet]

there's no fx chips that have a board that let you use intel stock cooling

especially in ITX

[rugged bridge]

In all honesty, once windows 10 reaches eol, im probably just gonna switch the linux

[neon mesa]

who says you have to mount it properly

[kindred coral]

What was the previous one?

[neon mesa]

it's not enough funny without ducktape mounting

[slate agate]

some dell other OEMS had/have a bad habit of designing their amd boards to use intel stock coolers

[wraith sonnet]

If I am crossing borders with it looking any more like a weapon I will get arrested

[supple lotus]

dell logic

[ruby venture]

I9 10900x
Rtx 3080
Ddr4 3600mhz

[wraith sonnet]

my passport requires me to enter canada on the ground or on a boat

[ruby venture]

Is the 40 series lhr?

[wraith sonnet]

LHR is done
