[hearty spear]

his attention span is about 0.35 seconds

[dreamy rose]

yes its bad, its bloatware

[balmy lotus]

lol dutch

[analog shuttle]

yeah like what

[analog shuttle]

linux moment

[lyric glade]

how do i get less stutters

[dreamy rose]

Debloat

[lyric glade]

how do i do that

[gusty dawn]

Reinstall windows

[lyric glade]

i have windows 11 pro

[cosmic coyote]

Speech therapy

[hearty spear]

you need to be way less ADD if you want to do anything productively

[lyric glade]

add?

[analog shuttle]

woah woah i’m ADD don’t lump us in

[lyric glade]

adhd?

[balmy lotus]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCOtWEFA6nc this is so cool

[lyric glade]

my friend thought me a word he said im that

[analog shuttle]

you’re not wrong tho, he’s not gonna go through with a tutorial

[hearty spear]

one variety, yes

[lyric glade]

he said something like ks

when i search it up it says keep yourself safe

[analog shuttle]

LOL

[lyric glade]

so hes a really good friend

[bitter flume]

i have almost a 10 year old CPU💀

[analog shuttle]

ok that was a funny one

[dreamy rose]

use a Tool. a guy called Chris Titus has a tool where you put a small command into powershell and it gives you a whole GUI. its neat. however Windows can be a bit picky. so. do it at your own risk. though it doesn't change the Desktop experience that much. still super buggy

[lyric glade]

wait im watching a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iT9lMzbvB2M

[analog shuttle]

tbh with modern machines and windows 11 it’s really not needed

just turn off some startup apps

[lyric glade]

how

[balmy lotus]

star this one please

[analog shuttle]

can we not bully?

[balmy lotus]

its funny

[analog shuttle]

like holy hell

[dreamy rose]

BS. you gotta remove as much as possible.

[hearty spear]

Dude: Stop.
Pick one topic. Stick with it until you get somewhere.

STOP JUMPING AROUND LIKE THIS

[analog shuttle]

linux troll

[balmy lotus]

no i mean the speech therapy joke is funny

[analog shuttle]

you don’t need to debloat tbh

[lyric glade]

HOW DO I fucking debloat my pc

then what huh

[analog shuttle]

[balmy lotus]

jeez louis with extra cheese

[dreamy rose]

dont bother use the Chris Titus tool and select the Desktop or minimal preset under Tweaks

[lyric glade]

do i stroke my balls

[analog shuttle]

???

man’s has officially lost it

[lyric glade]

then i wont get lagspikes?

[gusty dawn]

Inb4 glibc and systemd is bloated must use musl and openRC

[lyric glade]

lagspikes = stutters = freezes

[hearty spear]

you say that like he had it to begin with.

[balmy lotus]

im giggling lol

[analog shuttle]

it depends on what the issue is

[gusty dawn]

In gta v cap your framerate at 144fps or lower

If that is what you were getting stuttering in

[dreamy rose]

might not fix it but its good to get more performance

[lyric glade]

my friend told me to put my gta settings at max to remove cpu temp

[wind pulsar]

[analog shuttle]

we gotta teach him that IT DEPENDS

[lyric glade]

how much will i get

[hearty spear]

what?

[balmy lotus]

its about sending a message :batman:

[analog shuttle]

huh?

[lyric glade]

so it removes cpu load

[hearty spear]

there is no one answer to this

[graceful burrow]

[lyric glade]

can someone tweak my pc through teamviewer

[full fossil]

indeed

[dreamy rose]

you can see a few frames here and there. its more for low end Hardware gaming

[graceful burrow]

This is the last thing you should ever ask, ever

[balmy lotus]

im laughing so much rn

[analog shuttle]

nobody here wants to be responsible for your computer

[dreamy rose]

bad idea to ask

[lyric glade]

[balmy lotus]

@lyric glade do you have rgb in your pc

[graceful burrow]

Install gentoo for more fps

[lyric glade]

[analog shuttle]

rgb is probably the takeaway here. it helps so much

[balmy lotus]

im not mature enough to watch construction videos

they use white caulk to seal the edges :kek:

[full fossil]

well using my current membrane logitech keyboard my wpm dropped by 30

[dreamy rose]

in all honestly Nvidia can kiss Ass. they had to be scared into being Decent.

[analog shuttle]

[hearty spear]

I'm not mature enough to have a LOT of conversations that I do. But I fake it anyways.

[analog shuttle]

i used to use linux… as a comp sci student, and even for me it was gross and too much. especially for the average person, it’s not ready. stop coping and trying to act like it is.

ok mr know it all. how about you use Ubuntu if you wanna complain so much.

[graceful burrow]

Which distro

[analog shuttle]

but where is wayland?

[balmy lotus]

im going to donwload arch today

just for fun on my spare drive

[gusty dawn]

What distro and desktop enviroment

[analog shuttle]

lol dense

[analog shuttle]

i’ve used many

so like it doesn’t matter for me

[dreamy rose]

not on Nvidia because nvidia is too busy sticking their heads up their Asses to support anything halfway decently

[analog shuttle]

i don’t like it and obviously neither does the average joe

[graceful burrow]

I'm just curious, I use Linux almost daily

[gusty dawn]

It actually works okay now

[lyric glade]

wait a seks

[dreamy rose]

Wayland on Nvidia?

[graceful burrow]

If Linux wasn't ready, the steam deck wouldn't have shipped with arch

[gusty dawn]

Yeah Nvidia supports GBM now

[balmy lotus]

[graceful burrow]

No

[analog shuttle]

linux is cool, don’t get me wrong… i just think people need to stop acting like it’d be good for grandma or anyone who isn’t a tech nerd

[dreamy rose]

does this mean my Ancient 540M can do Wayland now?

[full fossil]

i like the steam deck but not having EAC/BattlEye support is a dealbreaker

[white fractal]

The most surprising thing I've encountered running Debian on a laptop is that sleep has been working flawlessly.

[balmy lotus]

[analog shuttle]

it’s the custom gui which makes it friendly

[full fossil]

at least it can run windows

[dreamy rose]

well you are wrong because Grandma can use linux.

[balmy lotus]

for gramma chrome os

[gusty dawn]

It does have support

Blame the game publisher/dev

[balmy lotus]

or just windows loll

[graceful burrow]

It does have eac and battleye support
All major anticheats support proton
It's your games that don't support proton, they just have to enable it

[analog shuttle]

this is why i left comp sci and generally the tech community

[gilded plinth]

my grandpa uses Pop, but it's true that all he does is just playing music in VLC

I just be curious

Mostly this discord ;)

[graceful burrow]

True tbh

[simple quail]

SteamOS Holo is based on Arch, but is definitely not the same

[balmy lotus]

AAAAAA

[dreamy rose]

cause we Spit facts? right

[graceful burrow]

It's arch under the hood with kde desktop that loads steam big picture by default

[gusty dawn]

It more like fedora silverblue than arch

[dreamy rose]

Arch is Arch

[full fossil]

as i understand it: if the game used the EOS version of EAC they can enable linux support. if they didn't then epic didn't release a fix

[balmy lotus]

sorry i dont wanna friend anyone i dont know irl

[plush rivet]

not everyone is mean, just don’t start a ego war and you’ll be fine

[analog shuttle]

“facts don’t care about your feelings” is all i’m hearing rn… but all i’m hearing is a lot of feelings

[graceful burrow]

That's still on the devs lmao

[gusty dawn]

Legacy is supported with a .so binary

[balmy lotus]

i miss milad

someone troll me pls

[graceful burrow]

[gusty dawn]

That's how some games like Apex work

doesnt intel use gear 2 for anything above like 5200?

[gusty dawn]

EVGA's bios optimizations are garbage for RPL

that requires rectification

[balmy lotus]

10 percent you lose from ram speed

[full fossil]

b-but evga chad good!

The z790 tachyon is better lmao

[simple quail]

I get it way too much, like I will actually escape from such situations since I get it so strongly

[full fossil]

I did not know that either

[gusty dawn]

Even the msi z790i edge is better

The Z790 apex is the best

You can do 8600mhz daily

[full fossil]

the tachyon did over 11ghz lmaoo

[gusty dawn]

Apex is still better in daily

[full fossil]

under ln2 but still

here's a little Factoid for you guys, the PS Vita was the best console Sony ever made. it was a flop. but it had the same kind of personality as Nintendo, Amazing games and was Rock solid hardware unlike everything else they made.

[fossil frost]

but like the psp, it was plagued by piracy from the beginning... it would have been harder to break their copy protection, if they just didnt have any at all

[gusty dawn]

It wasn't?

[dreamy rose]

what fucked it was the Memory Cards firstly. 1000 versions needed a Card and they still are expensive as fuck.

[gusty dawn]

The vita was only hackable within the psp sandbox for YEARS

[full fossil]

when we hit z890 and z990 what do you think the next generation will be

[gusty dawn]

Arrowlake

[full fossil]

z1090 seems unlikely

🤨 my ender 3 is the thing that forced me to use my soldering iron for the first time

[small zephyr]

just dont suck

[fierce moth]

I love soldering

[small zephyr]

welp i dont know yet never done

my iron is virgin

[fierce moth]

I have like 200 grams of solder on my desk

Flux

And a temperature controlled iron

I do wanna get a soldering station

[small zephyr]

i have an solderstation from stahlwerk

[fierce moth]

But expensive

[small zephyr]

90-480c

[fierce moth]

Mines 200-500c iirc

I just have it at 350c tho

Best temp for soldering

[small zephyr]

welp i though haveing lower temps can be nice for some stuff as well

i needa get an solder iroon knife tip thing

[fierce moth]

Although you do need a higher temp if you're not using 60/40 solder

[small zephyr]

so i can weld 3d prits together for example

[small zephyr]

you mean lead?

[fierce moth]

Yeah

60/40 is another name for it

[small zephyr]

if yes its only 100% lead free here

lead solder is banned here

[fierce moth]

Shame

Lead solder has a lower melting temp

[small zephyr]

welp it produces less toxic shit into your lungs as far as i know

[small zephyr]

my iron can do till 480 so it will be able to handle that

[fierce moth]

Well that only really applies if you do it all day

[small zephyr]

if im not wrong melting point for lead free is 343-380ish something i think

[fierce moth]

If you're a hobbyist you're not gonna die from lead solder

[small zephyr]

🤷‍♂️ tell that the goverment

[wind pulsar]

Oh yeah, lead fumes are extremely poisonous, you're better off being away from it

[wind pulsar]

No, but you also want to avoid permanent damage to your kidneys and nervous system

[small zephyr]

FINALY my fillament is shipped.... what a shit company i bought it from

[fierce moth]

I'm still fine and I solder with 60/40

[wind pulsar]

How often do you solder?

[fierce moth]

Not very often

[wind pulsar]

There you have it

[small zephyr]

brought it thursday friday tehy said its on the way but actually it only was in their warehouse waiting to pick up

[fierce moth]

But when I have a project I normally spend about a hour

Or two

If you're super concerned you can get mini desk fume extraction fans

[wind pulsar]

I'd say the main reason why it was banned in a lot of countries is because children are especially vulnerable to lead fumes and lead poisoning, so

[fierce moth]

I had to use one when I was doing training

[small zephyr]

🤔 and fuck you kingroon3dprinter seller on ebay for saying something is takeing 2 days to deliver if its seemingly from china....

[fierce moth]

Like that but not Kirby

[small zephyr]

kirby is the best way for that

i plan to build an giat kirby vape extractor

[fierce moth]

I gotta buy myself some decent helping hands

[small zephyr]

just 3d print some xD

[fierce moth]

Don't have a 3d printer

[graceful burrow]

I'll only use leaded solder I won't lie
Non-leaded solder fucking sucks, it doesn't melt well unless you're using tons of flux

[full fossil]

That explains a lot

[mild elm]

Hehe

[gilded plinth]

Just 3D print one

[small zephyr]

[wind pulsar]

Your decision, your responsibility of course, so I won't say much against it, I personally encourage people to stay away from it

[graceful burrow]

Google Rook 3d printer
It's mostly 3d printed, I'm about to build one

[small zephyr]

the reasons to buy a 3d printer is to 3d print upgrades for the 3dpinter you just brought

[fierce moth]

I'll probs head into a jaycar to get some helping hands

[small zephyr]

🤷‍♂️

[graceful burrow]

I make sure I have proper ventilation

[fierce moth]

Jaycar is a hobbyist store in aus

[wind pulsar]

[stray apex]

I mean, the US doesn't even require that lead be completely filtered from drinking water so

[small zephyr]

🤔 first thing i print as soon as my filament arives is a direct drive bracket

maybe i buy some lighter stepper motors for it then xD

adding 120grams on the print head is not always good

[graceful burrow]

Can't wait until I can build the rook
Gonna have a silly fast printer

[small zephyr]

🤔 to be true diy building a 3d printer would have been more expensive as just to buy my refurb ender 3

so i gave up the diy route and make an sick printer out the ender 3 instead

[fierce moth]

Ngl I'll just use my schools 3d printers while I can

[graceful burrow]

I already have a 3d printer

[small zephyr]

like getting an 400x400x400 print size frame etc

[small zephyr]

i could use the once in my CCC hackspace but i dont wanna spend 50cents per gramm of the prints

and its more fun to own one so you can mod the fuck out of it

like i said 3d printers are there to make 3d printer upgrades

[fierce moth]

350 aud for a ender 3

[full fossil]

Waiting 3 months for a chip or wire to arrive from china so you could use the printer is not fun

[small zephyr]

i dont know how much 250aud is but i paid 140€ refurb

🤔 my printer works just fine but to be true the ender 3 got some points that suck

[fierce moth]

About 220 euro

[small zephyr]

like the realy bad leveling of the print bed

[small zephyr]

new or used/refurb?

[fierce moth]

New

[small zephyr]

get refurb

[fierce moth]

And it looked like it came with fillment

[small zephyr]

costs around 100bucks less and its mostly got even waranty

[fierce moth]

About 259 aud printer only

[small zephyr]

im not gonna deal with shipping it to creality in china tho if something does break

🤨 i still bambozzled about the delivery of my ender 3

and 9kg package with dhl express for an 140bucks printer

dhl express for around 9kg costs about 90ish bucks

so basicly my printer was 50bucks and 90bucks shipping

shipping was "free tho"

[fierce moth]

I paid like 50 aud for dhl shipping when I got my gamecube from japan

The gamecube itself was like 15 aud

[small zephyr]

fuck seems like the pla i ordered cant do longer prints

do to some inconsistency 🤨 better as buying 40bucks per kilo filament for my first printer

i gues i will keep buying 13bucks 1kg rolls for some time

[dull osprey]

$5 for 20 Second shorts video editing, takes around 1 hour of good for quality edit, does it worth it?
$5 worth it?
$5???

[small zephyr]

😂 i would realy like some ninja flex but its like 250grams for 45bucks here

[dull osprey]

I mean, does it worth to open premiere pro

for $5

[fierce moth]

Christ

26 aud for a kilo of pla

And that's about 16 euro

[small zephyr]

should i buy an 3dprinter pen thing for touch ups if i print parts that need to be glued together?

[fierce moth]

Depends if you're gonna do a lot of prints that will require that

[small zephyr]

🤔 nice i can buy localy some coPET filament for 10bucks 500grams

or some hips filament for 6bucks 500grams

i doubt i can print it for now tho

[hardy fjord]

[fossil frost]

i was buying filament from china, from amazon... until i noticed that there is a company about 10 minutes away from my house that makes it on site, and lets me buy it fresh from the factory floor 😄

[fierce moth]

Ngl

I might save up for a decent 3d printer

[small zephyr]

welp the reason i didnt buy from em this time was because i was buying on credit basicly on ebay i needa pay next month but on that webstore of em they use the same payment provider but they weirldy enough dont have an pickup option only delivery for 6bucks per spool

[summer folio]

📖 🔥 🇸🇪

[fossil frost]

ender3 is plenty for most people

[fossil frost]

ah ok... i usually just stock up when im passing and they are doing a run of colours i like 😄

[fierce moth]

I would need it to have decent Linux support

As that's my os

[small zephyr]

next month when i have some money on my account im gonna go there in person

[fossil frost]

3D printers are their own thing, you transfer a file to an SD card, or you attach something like a PI to it if you want to use it remotely

[small zephyr]

filaments have realy great prices there but hardware with exception for the 22bucks 3d printing pen they are fucking expensive

60bucks for the creality 4.2.7 board

[sonic barn]

Depends on the filament

There's super super cheap ones

[fossil frost]

i have a pen... only because, if i have the odd imperfection here and there in a print, i use it to fill in any gaps

[small zephyr]

thats the reason i consider one, for that and if you glue pieces together or weld em together you can fill all toose nooks and crannys

[fossil frost]

yep, thats exactly what im doing 😄

[fierce moth]

Or you could use a low temp soldering iron to glue

Just a idea

Or is it a bad idea

[small zephyr]

yeah i wanna do that but there will be inperfections and 3dpens can add material

[fossil frost]

you arent gluing, you are melting the filament to fill in the gaps after gluing

[small zephyr]

🤔 my biggest planed project for example is an clone trooper armor

and i want to paint is in an high glossy candy pink

so the finish will need to be perfect and since i dont want to spend years on snading i will buy some uv resin to fill the layers on a large scale

cuz if you want to paint something in shiny glossy paint the finish needs to be perfect

[fierce moth]

If I had a 3d printer it would probs be utility stuff

As I like modding retro consoles

[icy oak]

I wanna get a 3D printer. Just so I can make cool shit like video game props

[crimson oak]

aren't there like cheap entry-level 3D printers for hobbyists?

[fossil frost]

it all sounds like fun and games, until you print the 3rd thing of the same model in a row, and for some reason, it just wont print, even though you just printed it twice and it worked perfectly

[fierce moth]

Ender 3

[fossil frost]

yep, ender3, get the official one, not one of the knockoffs, the knockoffs are fucking terrible

[fierce moth]

Cheapest I've seen

[icy oak]

I need a hobby. So 3D printer maintenance would be kinda fun

[fossil frost]

its fun and infuriating at the same time

[fierce moth]

I would make modding consoles a side gig

But I'm only 17 lol

[icy oak]

Hell yeah. My favorite

Reminds me of the time I repaired my first proper tablet.

[fossil frost]

it turns out, the main use for a 3D printer, is printing upgrades for your 3D printer 😄

[icy oak]

I had to replace the screen, and during the process... Let's just say there was a LOT of broken glass.

[crimson oak]

Damn

[icy oak]

I wanted to repair it because it's a time capsule. Of my childhood

[crimson oak]

Using duct tape actually works pretty well when you need to remove broken glass from a display :p

[icy oak]

I looked through that tablet without connecting to WiFi. And holy shit... Apparently younger me was a little pirate.

[fierce moth]

Ngl every kid was

[lament crystal]

My vesa monitor stand arrived today

Now my second monitor is portrait and holy shit I underestimated how tall it would be

[fossil frost]

just playing KSP, accidentally sent a kerbal on an EVA while pulling +12G :D, needless to say, he didnt hold on for long 😄

[icy oak]

But what I pirated... Oh boy. So for context, I've had this tablet since I was like 9.

[crimson oak]

I remember looking for a cracked version of minecraft as a kid XD

[wise tundra]

The first thing I ever did on a computer was torrenting movies. Dad decided to teach me to do that. 6yo me being a criminal.

[icy oak]

Anyone remember Aptoide?

[fierce moth]

Yea

[full fossil]

[full fossil]

[fierce moth]

I used to pirate games for my wii lmao

I must of been like 11

[lament crystal]

Must have

[fierce moth]

And somehow hacked my wii

[full fossil]

It isn’t hard

[wise tundra]

Oh I just borrowed the game from the library and copied it onto my Wii. I'd say I was about 12.

[full fossil]

This isn’t hard to

I still remember the website where you can get it from

[fierce moth]

Try saying that to a 11 year old

[full fossil]

I won’t mention the website name

But it’s very old and hasn’t been updated in a while

[fierce moth]

Felt like such a badass

[icy oak]

God. I had a shit ton of music downloaders on this thing 😂

[full fossil]

It's free on Linux xP hehe

[fossil frost]

i used to pirate games for my PS1, PS2, Dreamcast, XBOX and Xbox360, even played online with pirated xbox 360 games too 😄

[full fossil]

But I really don’t know how I still remember the website name

It’s been years

[wise tundra]

Any idea how would be the best way of having a surveillance camera connected to a FreeBSD machine and this done as cheaply as possible? It can be janky as long as it's cheap, it works and it's running on the FreeBSD machine already in use.

[wise tundra]

Did you do any KV trickery?

[fierce moth]

I pirated my favourite game of all time

[icy oak]

FNAF 3, Block Launcher Pro... Why the fuck did I have the Bible on this thing?

[full fossil]

@fierce moth #tech-chat-1

######### is a free alternative to using main Minecraft online services

That is literally what the site says

[fierce moth]

Ofc now I can buy my own games

[full fossil]

I just pirate games

[fossil frost]

for the 360? yeah, even swapped out my EEPROM a few times too 😄

[full fossil]

I spent a lot of cash on games

[wise tundra]

Didn't consider dual NANDs and just buying stolen KVs?

[fossil frost]

i had the cable permanently soldered into the xbox, and hanging out the side, could reflash the eeprom whenever, and i cant remember what forum it was, but there was a forum where people posted KV's all the time, and, there were other ways of getting legal ones, by not-so-legal ways

[full fossil]

I flashed my switch with a custom firmware

[icy oak]

Yo there's like old Minecraft skins on my tablet 😭

[full fossil]

I still have my Minecraft alpha world on my iPod touch

[fierce moth]

Despite what most people say loz skyward sword was my favourite game

[full fossil]

It has infinite diamonds Becuase I abused a duping glitch back then

[fierce moth]

Bit biased cause of childhood

[full fossil]

And I made my chicken room full of diamonds

The room is just diamond blocks

I'm eating chicken right now

I heard he wants to release tesla phone

[fierce moth]

Oh God

Even more closed down than ios

[full fossil]

Actually the reason he even considered the idea is because iOS is too closed down xD

[fierce moth]

Not for long

Thanks EU

[fossil frost]

it will remain so, apple will figure out the loopholes

[wind pulsar]

Yeah, the EU isn't gonna change iOS being closed down

[icy oak]

Lord... My second Android tablet. Why did I connect it to the internet when I first repaired it?

I should've just... Kept it offline

Though, it has a bunch of skins I wanna get off of there and onto my PC or Drive.

I just realized. I'm on my 3rd tablet with my Surface

Why did my second tablet have a resolution of 2560x1600?!

[slate tulip]

I like Surfaces :)

[sage bluff]

…

[icy oak]

Not even kidding. The SM-T320 has a screen res of 2560x1600.. that's more than my current monitor

On an 8.4 inch screen

[wind pulsar]

So?

That's just 1440p at 16:10.

[icy oak]

It's a tablet. An 8.4 inch tablet.

[wind pulsar]

So? There's 6 inch phones that have a 4K display

[icy oak]

Fair. But it's still a bit shocking to me that I had this high res of a screen back when I was 10.

[fierce moth]

Resolution isn't everything

[icy oak]

True.

Pixel density is a thing.

[plush rivet]

Color accuracy*

[icy oak]

True.

[wind pulsar]

Yeah, pixel density still correlates with the resolution of the display, so that was the wrong thing to say, lol

[fierce moth]

Like you can have a 1080p screen from 2013 and it looks like 720p

[plush rivet]

When your colors are off you’ll start bitching even more

[full fossil]

I'm so full of chicken TwT

Can't move

[wind pulsar]

Because?

Don't just throw random shit in without explaining why

[fossil frost]

you shouldnt shove them up there, the RSPCA will get involved

[fierce moth]

Cause it's old?

[icy oak]

Only has 2 GB RAM though which kinda makes me sad. Cause I'd love to breathe some life into it by putting a newer Android ROM on it

[fierce moth]

I'm not a display engineer

[wind pulsar]

So you don't even know why, ffs

[gilded quest]

wat

[wind pulsar]

But hey, random 'fact' thrown in, but I don't know why!

[full fossil]

I think it's cuz of pixel arrangement, pattern, and quality of lcd

[gilded quest]

well...it is a product of its time

[terse matrix]

chicken is rather scrumptious

[gilded quest]

2GB was the standard back then

[icy oak]

Yeah. February 1st, 2014.

[hollow pulsar]

1080p = 1080p. If it looks bad, maybe it's due to other factors, such as Pixel density, or color accuracy.

[full fossil]

Anyone who gets between me and food will die >:[

[fossil frost]

only if you were keeping them as your own personal pet, then they would come and murder your pets "to free them"

ebay

or calling oem

[tropic zodiac]

Okay thx

[gilded plinth]

Sure

[icy oak]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/wpJThk

I was broke at the time 😅

In fact, the 320GB hard drive was salvaged from my mom's Vaio, and the 750GB was salvaged from the old Optiplex

[gilded plinth]

What year is it from?

[icy oak]

2016

[summer folio]

2030,
post nuclear war

very rare pc

[icy oak]

The interesting thing about all my PCs that I've built, is that each one represents a specific part of my life.

[fierce moth]

Ngl, I would be 25 if that happened

[icy oak]

My first build was middle school. Second build was me growing up and getting my first job. Third build was me turning 18. Now this current one that I'm saving for is me going to college.

[fossil frost]

you HOPE you would be 25.. post nuclear war... no guarantees

[fierce moth]

And no one bloody needs a electrician post nuclear war

So my jobs will be limited

[plush rivet]

I mean electricians still make a hell of a lot

[fossil frost]

my hobbies include running, cycling, swimming, and archery... so... i could run down some animals, stab them in the face, and then trade them/eat them

[plush rivet]

Plumbers and electricians are still in high demand even now

[fierce moth]

But there will be no electricity in a wasteland

Maybe plumbing

[fossil frost]

you could use the many batteries there are, and many transformers, and many dynamos/motors there are to remake electricity, at least locally, and sell that electricity to the people who want to torture other people by zapping their testicles

[plush rivet]

I mean rebuilding is a thing, and you need electricians to put back up electric wtuff

[dawn birch]

Says you, as I make a slave farm full of abandoned elliptical cycles jury rigged to generators and wind turbines

[slate tulip]

Depends. Wouldn’t be too hard to find some sort if motor and turn it into a hand crank

[fossil frost]

^^^ this guy gets it

[slate tulip]

Conan vibes

[dawn birch]

Except instead of a God, it's my OLED display

[fierce moth]

Let's hope we don't get any zombie like people

[icy oak]

That's just Twitter

[slate tulip]

Really though, why bother with slaves? They are loud and stinky

[fierce moth]

Cause guns are very limited in aus

[fossil frost]

tbh, there would be a huge die-off right away, of people who have absolutely no ability to "live off the land"

[slate tulip]

Get like, fluffy donkeys or horses or something

[dawn birch]

Well where the hell else are they gonna go?

[icy oak]

Bro. It's Australia. I'm surprised you're not dead yet

[fierce moth]

True

[slate tulip]

Food, for fluffy cuddley animals

[fossil frost]

not if they know what is good for them they arent

[dawn birch]

... yknow fair point

[fierce moth]

If we can survive this heat we can survive nuclear war

[fossil frost]

i would go round scavenging car batteries and create a bunch of high power 240v packs, just to keep my fridge freezer running... and then kill a bunch of animals and put them in there... food for a while for me

[fierce moth]

Take over a supermarket

Supermarkets would be safe havens

[fossil frost]

supermarket food would go off pretty quickly, and would require too much power to run all of their fridges

[slate tulip]

Hmmm… would conan style group-based generators be better, or individual bikes ala black mirror?

[fierce moth]

They normally have backup generators

[fossil frost]

doesnt matter to me, thats for my slaves to worry about

[fierce moth]

Just find some gas to keep those gens running

[slate tulip]

Well, it’s in our best interest to get the most watt/slave

[fossil frost]

if they die, ill just get new slaves

[slate tulip]

As for food - stock up on mountain house

[dawn birch]

You put it like that, then you gotta find and separate the ones with good upper body strength from the ones with good lower body strength

[slate tulip]

Sure, but if there’s only x slaves, you want to optimize them - it takes time to get new ones

[fierce moth]

Tradesmen would be a importance

[slate tulip]

You can put them to other uses. Gathering raw materials, doing book keeping, etc

[fossil frost]

tbh, i would go round and all the nerds that hide in their parents basement... because 1. they cant fight back... and 2. i would harness their right arms, and they would generate electricity by constantly whacking off

that way, they will never complain, and if they do, thats a stabbin

[fierce moth]

Interesting power generation method

[plush rivet]

On top of that, most of those people are extremely smart, use them to your advantage

[fossil frost]

and, they couldnt escape, because the sun would obliterate their pasty white skin

[plush rivet]

no fighting back

[fierce moth]

Although you will need to make post apocalyptic doritos and mountain dew

if you are interested, would you like to smell this rag? 😄

I tell you what - I wish my parents had:

1. a jointly owned house and dual income
2. a room or basement I could live in for a few years while I save up a down payment for a house

[fossil frost]

my parents had neither of those... though i was born early enough to where it was slightly easier for me to buy a house

and by early enough, i mean 1985 🙂

[slate tulip]

Lucky! A few years head start on me

[jaunty compass]

people who like the playstation controllers

can you explain why

[fossil frost]

impossible, they suck. xbox controller = THE controller

[modest sky]

Hell nah, playstation controller way better

[gilded quest]

I like the layout compared to Xbox, but Xbox is more comfortable

[jaunty compass]

Personally, I very much dislike playstation controllers, the ergonomics make them very unpleasant for me to use; but I may not have the same hand type as other people or feel it differently

but i know that some people may like them

[jaunty compass]

this is an example of what I wasn't looking for

[gilded quest]

I didn't mind dualshock 3 when I was a tween, but I couldn't use them now

[modest sky]

🙂

[jaunty compass]

and so is this

i want concrete actual reasons

[gilded quest]

Dualsense haptics are amazing

[jaunty compass]

I hated the dualshock 3 💀
the convex sticks made it hard for my fingers to stay on them and having my thumbs a bit lower down was really uncomfortable

I like the placement of the dpad better on the playstation controller than on the xbox controller though

[fossil frost]

i have larger hands, the size and shape of the xbox controller suits larger hands better, the playstation controller size and shape is far too small for me, and as such, everything feels like its too close to everything else

[jaunty compass]

personally, my favorite controller atm is the one integrated to the steam deck

[gilded quest]

I have small Linus hands

I hope steam deck 2 has a rubberized grip option

[jaunty compass]

i have somewhat large hands but my fingers are a bit fat

thank my dad for my genetics ig 💀

[jaunty compass]

I would never want a rubberized grip integrated into a controller, they get filthy

and it's hard to clean them

in a few years that rubberized grip will also start to kinda get mushy

[gilded quest]

I keep my stuff clean and tidy.

[jaunty compass]

they do need to do something to make the steam deck not so slippery though

[dawn birch]

Stipple grips, then?

[jaunty compass]

I try to keep my stuff clean but i have pets and my house is very dusty

[gilded quest]

Not an issue for me; might be an issue for those that secrete gamer grease

[jaunty compass]

not to mention i'm quite sweaty, yeah

[gilded quest]

But it would be nice as an option on the next iteration

[jaunty compass]

I bought a silicone grip case for my steam deck and that's fine for me personally

that's what i'd recommend to you

[modest sky]

The only thing i like about the Xbox controller is a 8 directional d-pad

[gilded quest]

I got an Xbox design lab controller with rubber grips and some metal buttons, it feels soooooo good in the hands

[gilded quest]

I cannot do silicone

Maybe TPU would work for me

[jaunty compass]

I very much like clicky dpads

the steam deck's one is a bit disappointing since it's mushy

[gilded quest]

Yeah it is

[jaunty compass]

the ps vita had my favorite dpad on any console

the psvita has a clicky dpad

[glass sphinx]

I have a weird problem

[gilded quest]

For a first generation product, I'm not upset with the dpad

[jaunty compass]

valve always likes to make kinda quirky controllers

[glass sphinx]

My computer mouse doesn't respond very well how do I fix it

[gilded quest]

They do

I'm not a big fan of the sticks

[jaunty compass]

the steam controller was

interesting

for me the sticks are a little slippery but i'm fine with them for the most part

[gilded quest]

I'd forgo the capacitive for a bigger indent

[jaunty compass]

I understand why they went with what they did

[gilded quest]

Same

[jaunty compass]

having an easy way to activate gyro is very nice for when i use it

and I do use it

i've been playing botw on deck and i very much do actually use the gyro aim

[glass sphinx]

I bought a razer basilisk x hyperspeed mouse and it doesn't respond when I click sometimes

[gilded quest]

I'd kill for an OLED

The resolution is fine

[jaunty compass]

personally

I don't really care about oled panels that much

I grew up using terrible LCD and TN panels so IPS panels are like

they're fine to me

[gilded quest]

But I'd like smaller bezels and an OLED. Bonus points if it's 90Hz+, but that's not necessary

[jaunty compass]

even bad IPS panels still look pretty good to me

[gilded quest]

I like using my deck in the evening and in bed

[jaunty compass]

90+ hz is entirely unnecessary 💀

[gilded quest]

OLED would be a huge plus for me

[gilded quest]

It is lol. But would be cool af

[jaunty compass]

it would end up being a bad trade for battery life

[pliant karma]

oled monitor is my next upgrade. dammit hardwarebob and linus are kinda getting me to want a 48in but hell dream setup

[jaunty compass]

the deck already doesn't have great battery when playing demanding games

it's not awful but it's already not great

and the deck wouldn't hit those targets anyways in more demanding modern titles

[gilded quest]

It would be a QoL upgrade that's worth the battery trade off for me

[jaunty compass]

I mean

do you really do stuff that benefits from that on the deck in handheld mode?

[gilded quest]

Not sure how much worse the battery would be with the current display size anyway

[jaunty compass]

i just don't really see that many applicable use cases where you would use the deck in handheld mode and be able to take advantage of high refresh rate screen

because you could just hook it up to a monitor (like i have it right now, i'm actually typing from it)

[gilded quest]

No the high refresh rate is because my eyes are ruined by 165Hz desktop monitors

[pliant karma]

lol

[gilded quest]

I'd take OLED 60Hz tho

[jaunty compass]

i have it hooked up to my high refresh rate 1440p monitor right now lol

it's quite a good desktop experience

[pliant karma]

feel ya there. using my laptop for like a week then transitioning back to my main rig is like aight

[jaunty compass]

OLED I understand a lot more, that would be an actual usable improvement

it's just not something I personally care about that much lol

but it would actually be something that matters and is applicable

[gilded quest]

My MBA is fine at 60Hz, but my iPad air feels sluggish and gross at 60Hz

[pliant karma]

Though a steamdeck has been on my mind for sometime. Maybe but we'll see

I have the powerbanks to run it on long international flights so there is that.

[jaunty compass]

probably because it's a touch display and there's a lot more swiping and sliding and scrolling on the ipad

there's a lot more of that type of motion

[gilded quest]

Probably

[jaunty compass]

stuff that looks funky and bad at lower refresh rates because it's not as smooth

[gilded quest]

I have a Samsung tablet with a rather bad LCD

But it's saving grace is 120Hz

[pliant karma]

I question the amount of power banks I carry when traveling but they do the trick. Realistically I only go through 1 but there’s backups

[jaunty compass]

I want to get one of those old steam machines and upgrade it for steam OS 3 and modern games

Like the Alienware alpha 1 or whatever it was called

[dull granite]

were steam machines basically prebuilts?

or some other weird thingies

[gilded quest]

they were prebuilt boxes

[jaunty compass]

Basically small prebuilts yeah

[barren blade]

dan is so funny in this latest video

[vapid smelt]

what do you need to charge so often?

[slate tulip]

why not just skip 2.5 and go to 10?

SFP+ is fairly cheap and versatile

[fossil frost]

10 doesnt support the 2.5 my main machine already has built in, and i have no ports for a 10g card

[slate tulip]

ah. Might be able to negotiate down to 2.5, but idk

everything I have is either 1 or 10 - and I had room to just add a 10GbE NIC in my desktop

[pliant karma]

camera and go pro batteries. Sometimes my phone and my dads phone too.

basically overkill on powerbanks but they get used

[slate tulip]

mellanoc connectx-2 last I bought some were around $30, though they might be a bit more expensive now. PCIe, and works on linux out of the box

[fossil frost]

10 is an older spec than 2.5 and 5, so 10 will support 1, but usually not 2.5 and/or 5

[slate tulip]

throwing 1 per server and just trunking to the server then splitting vlan via Open vSwitch

[vapid smelt]

anyone here used a tempered glass office mat?

[slate tulip]

ah, that makes some sense. Could go 10GbE for 90% then find a 2.5Gb switch that has a 10GbE uplink to the rest of the network

[full fossil]

that sounds like such a dumb idea

[pliant karma]

oh it's dumb for sure but I bet you some smaller influences might promote it. lol there will be that small group

[vapid smelt]

idk seems like a great one

[fossil frost]

btw.. everyone... open question... do mushrooms go in a proper actual real lasagne, yes or no?

[lament siren]

i mean

if you're trying to make it vegan/vegetarian then mushrooms can work as a meat replacement

[fossil frost]

i fixed the question 🙂

[lament siren]

if by real you mean traditional/non-vegan then i'd say no

[fossil frost]

good... correct answer 😄

[lament siren]

maybe mushroom stock in the ragu?

[fossil frost]

loads of places near where i live, put mushrooms in lasagne... except... for the italian place which is my new favourite italian place... when i asked "are there mushrooms in the lasagne" he looked at me like i was an idiot and said (in a very thick italian accent) "of course not, no, why would they be"... and when i explained that i have to ask because a lot of people do it he said "well, those places are doing it wrong, ours is what it is supposed to be" and to be fair, it was one of the best lasagne ive had in a very long time

[slate tulip]

imo, mushrooms go in everything

[fossil frost]

incorrect... on a completely different subject, i have a plank, and a blindfold over here... and i want you to try something for me 🙂

[slate tulip]

but you gotta sauté or grill them - learned the hard way that too watery/raw mushrooms didn't go well in a stew/chili that i made

[full fossil]

Way back when I used a 3/4 inch thick clear plastic as a chair mat the biggest park to it as I was able to but movie posters under it. Still to this day was one of the best rolling services I've ever used

you'd get this yummy bite, and then much down on a mushroom that added just a bunch of tasteless liquid - it was sad

[leaden gale]

Me when redundancy

[tacit notch]

what's a good cheap turbo contrller for a switch?

[twin raptor]

Yeah fry em in butter so soak it all up 😋

[full fossil]

As a person that is allergic to mushrooms. I'ma have to disagree with that. I have added the. to I make for my kids when they request it for their birthday dinners. They seem to like it

[fossil frost]

you arent eating mushrooms then, you are eating sponges full of liquid butter that made the butter that taste like soil

[twin raptor]

Yessss

[fossil frost]

so you are just ruining butter with the mushroom's soil taste

[twin raptor]

Noo

It aint just dirt man

Mushrooms got a taste besides that. I dont just eat butter.

[vapid smelt]

or just eat meat much easier

[fossil frost]

and what our bodies need too

[fluid ridge]

you dont need meat

look at gorillas all they eat are berries and bananas but one of those mfs could flip a small car

🦍

no amount of protein ever coming close to giving such a physique

[fossil frost]

no, you need protein, and meat is the easiest way to get it and the way our body most easily digests it. also, as bad as farming is for the planet, all the processed shite that vegetarian and vegan diets have in them, the processes that go into that, are probably worse. and, gorillas may have a higher peak strength than a human, but a human isnt a gorilla, a human is built for endurance... we are practically the best endurance animal on the planet

[fluid ridge]

explain the gorillas

[woven yew]

would anyone be able to spare a bit of their time? Im having some issues with my pc

[fossil frost]

gorillas get protein from different sources, because their bodies spent millions of years adapting to those sources, and they require much more peak power than we do, and require much less endurance, thus have a completely different makeup of A and B muscle fibres than we have

[fluid ridge]

maybe we should go back to being monkeys

[fossil frost]

we still are, just a different type

[vapid smelt]

but they have tiny pens

[fossil frost]

thats really why they flip cars over, they are over compensating

[fluid ridge]

bro??!?

[fossil frost]

gorillas... not you... gorillas are about 1.5 - 2inches at full mast

[fluid ridge]

thats small now?

inflation hitting hard

[fossil frost]

maybe he was talking about you then

[vapid smelt]

and they are short

[fluid ridge]

🗿

[stray apex]

Oh no
Beans and bean-based products

[fossil frost]

im not saying that meat is the only way... im saying that humans now, are more efficient at getting protein from meat than they are from anything else... but as with everything, we should have various things, in moderation, not all/nothing of 1 type of food

[feral quest]

Just eat meat

[stray apex]

Meat is inefficient

Since you have to grow food for the food

[fossil frost]

the high energy concentration in meat is why humans were able to grow such large brains

[stray apex]

Ideally you'd be able to minimize the amount of energy the animal wastes while growing

[feral quest]

We don't live in an ideal world like that unfortunately

[stray apex]

But it's probably unethical to tranquilize an animal for its entire life
There might also be effects on the meat itself

[feral quest]

Plus... Meat tastes nice

I couldn't eat avocados for the rest of my life

[stray apex]

Yes, you don't care about how efficient it is when all you need to do is find and kill it

It matters a lot more when you also have to feed, water and house it

[polar fern]

the problem is that the amount of resources put into livestock is nowhere near what we get out of it.

[feral quest]

I like to personally hunt down my food with a bow and arrow 🏹

[vapid smelt]

why compost when you can feed your pig your leftovers they will eat anything

[fossil frost]

im not on about farming or factory farming.. and i do think a lot of people would eat a lot less if they were forced to find and kill their own food... and would lead to a much more sustainable population and much more sustainable life too

[stray apex]

We should feed our dead to pigs
Recycle the energy in them

[ruby venture]

My 3 front panel fans won’t light up (h7 elite)

[fossil frost]

parasite and disease transfer is why that would be a bad idea...

[polar fern]

hunter/gather is not "sustainable" unless you want 80% of the population to starve in the matter of a few weeks, and then all of our critical infrastructure would start failing

[stray apex]

Idgaf about the morality of eating meat
It's just economically inferior to plants

[fossil frost]

yep, i do want that 🙂

[stray apex]

And fungi

[vapid smelt]

[summer folio]

Bring back 2008

Goat purcharge power times

[fossil frost]

bring back 0008, even better

[polar fern]

bring back 1990

[summer folio]

pft

SEK was 0,17 USD 2008
This christmas it was like 0,089 usd or something

Everything is double as expensive from USA. kekw

like computer parts is priced in USD. smh

L

or maybe easier to convert other way around?

1 USD was 5,9 SEK 2008

Last fall 1 USD was 11,3 SEK. 💸

[manic torrent]

The reality is that modern farming and supply chain of ANY food is harmful. The morality of eating meat vs non meat - why does a cow get more protection than a mouse or snake in a field.

[polar fern]

snake in a field.

[stray apex]

There are environmental impacts, yes, but meat has all of those as well, just more inefficient

[polar fern]

prolly hunting for the mouse

[stray apex]

Unless you only feed the meat food waste that was never going to be used for energy

[manic torrent]

american beef is double stupid because corn. Other places it is far less stupid

[stray apex]

Hey, if the government is gonna subsidize it

[manic torrent]

subsidies are supposed to REDUCE negative externalities

[polar fern]

i can feel the mod's finger hovering on the nuke chat button

[fossil frost]

the american government subsidises corn because the american government controls the price of corn for its own gains

[fossil frost]

if you can feel the mods finger, then its somewhere it shouldnt be

[polar fern]

breh

[manic torrent]

but the point is - not eating meat for moral reasons is questionable at best.

if you don't want to eat meat, I don't care.

but eating ethically farmed local produce, regardless of meat of not, is better.

[fossil frost]

yeah, that was my initial point, not eating meat for moral reasons, is stupid, especially because of all the damage that the chemicals and factories used in post processing vegetarian and vegan food do

[manic torrent]

however - that is a luxury many cannot afford.

[stray apex]

Meat has the same things
Just more

And you realize that most vegetarian and vegan food is just... Vegetables, right?

[fossil frost]

the meat i buy comes from chickens that lived 5 minutes from my house, and the beef comes from cows that lived about 20 minutes from my house... and when i get a steak, it gets carved off the side of what was a cow a few days ago, by a butcher... and its the same in a lot of places... its the USA where what you say is close to true, not everywhere

[stray apex]

It's good that you can afford that

It's still less efficient than just eating what they fed the animals

[fossil frost]

its not about affording it... its because of where i live, i live near a bunch of farms..

[leaden gale]

Mfw you can't digest what they fed the animals nearly as well as the animals do

Which means you're not getting the same benefit that the animals do

[manic torrent]

you don't have 4 ruminating stomachs?

[stray apex]

Animals are not so significantly more efficient at processing corn that it's more efficient to eat corn via cow than just eat corn

[summer folio]

Let's only feed wolf & lions grass.

[slate tulip]

Is it though? I meant, nutrition isn’t quite so simple

[fossil frost]

which require a lot of dangerous chemicals to stop from from being infected in the field, a lot of dangerous chemicals that keep it from going off on the way to the shops, a lot of dangerous chemicals to stop it from going off in the shops... and... on top of that... the stuff that isnt "just veg", because they have a lot of mushrooms, processed with different chemicals, in lots of different factories, to taste like meat

[slate tulip]

We can’t eat what plants eat, for example

[summer folio]

proceeds to absorb the sun

[stray apex]

And the plants we feed to animals are somehow better?

[manic torrent]

yes, but that is an american problem, not an inherent meat problem

[stray apex]

Fundementally the problem with livestock is that they eat food

[fossil frost]

grass? i should eat the grass that the cows were eating? you do realise that to eat enough grass in a day just to get the energy to stay alive, all you would do all day is be eating grass... continuously

[slate tulip]

I haven’t done the research, but it’s entirely possible that we have less evolved mechanism for processing plants, than say a cow

[stray apex]

Cows are mostly fed grains, actually

[manic torrent]

IN AMERICA

[polar fern]

we'd need more stomach and longer intestine and then we would need bigger chairs - no good breh

[slate tulip]

So a cow could gain more nutrition per pound or whatever, than we could, and then process that into meat we can process more efficiently

[fossil frost]

in america, in a lot of places... its the grass, in the field that they live in

[manic torrent]

In australia, cows eat grass.

[fossil frost]

also the UK, and most european countries too

[summer folio]

https://www.bbcearth.com/news/plants-have-feelings-too

[slate tulip]

And we don’t eat our poop - so we aren’t passing it through a second time for more efficiency or whatever 😆

[stray apex]

Which is also terrible for the environment, unless your country is actually just covered in massive open fields of grass

[fossil frost]

yep... thats what most of europe is/was

and thats why they eat it

[summer folio]

It is Govertment Law in Sweden, that cows gets too roam free outside in grass lands 4 months every year.

[stray apex]

I'm pretty sure that's only the case after thousands of years of human habitation?

[vapid smelt]

https://www.usdairy.com/news-articles/do-dairy-cows-eat-food-people-could-eat

Grass: More than 50 percent of cow feed is actually grass

[manic torrent]

you can't undo that.

[fossil frost]

noope... wild bovine live on grasslands and eat grass, as do wild sheep, and wild goats

[vapid smelt]

. Only 2.2 percent of what cows eat is made up of food that people would want to eat.

[fossil frost]

also, USA is one of the few places where animals are force fed something that could be used as food for humans

[fierce moth]

Wtf is happening

[manic torrent]

food

[stray apex]

I can't imagine why the national dairy council would be a proponent for the environmental friendliness of cattle

[fierce moth]

Farmers union iced coffee

Is good

[stray apex]

Even then
That's arable land that you're using to grow cattle

[fierce moth]

Made in my own state

[fossil frost]

which is where they would live anyway, its THEIR land, where they always lived...

[stray apex]

Europe used to be covered in forest, actually

[fossil frost]

a lot of it yes, with a lot of plains between those forests, there is more plains (farm land) now, but the plains were always there

[stray apex]

And regardless
No matter how you cut it, resources used to grow meat would be more efficiently utilized growing plants for humans

[summer folio]

I always laugh when vegans ask me to watch "Cowspiracy" & that it will change my mind about eating meat/drinking milk.
Like, what in Gods name does Capitalism dogs of Americans treatment of animals have to do with me in Sweden.

[fierce moth]

Meat is tasty

[manic torrent]

the mistreatment of animals is different to the idea of whether or not you should eat animals.

[summer folio]

If noone buys ecological meat/dairy product, there won't be any demands for it. Someone gonna make sure the cows is kept alive/don't go extinct.

[stray apex]

Yes, it's also just economically less efficient than using the resources to make plants

[fossil frost]

so... just throw all the cows, sheep and chickens, and any other animal that dares to live somewhere we want to turn into plant farms, into the ocean... fuck them.... and just hard farm all the land possible?

[summer folio]

We should all go out & protest America, so they treat their cows better. Agreed. Brb, Cow Kebab.
