[fossil frost]

the problems you have with farming animals, are AMERICAN problems... not problems that the rest of the world has... because its AMERICANS who have created the problems of wasting resources

[worldly kayak]

linus cord

[stray apex]

Ah yes
Galaxy brain "using our resources more efficiently would lead to further exploitation of the environment"

Because y'know what humans love
Growing shittons of plants we can't do anything with

[fossil frost]

humans always want more, always want bigger...

[stray apex]

There's such a sound economic incentive to grow shit for no reason

[fierce moth]

That's what she said

Sorry just had too

[fossil frost]

corn... in the USA... theres fucking tons of it that just gets thrown away, because the US government says so

again, an american problem that the rest of the world DOESNT HAVE

[stray apex]

Excuse me, we feed it to animals

[vapid smelt]

with out corn we would have no soda

[summer folio]

Yes, sustainable farming & animal care does not increase BNP as much as ONE GIANT state land of only Soy bean farming or Corn.

[stray apex]

https://eeb.org/eu-wastes-more-food-than-it-imports-says-new-report/

[fossil frost]

you feed some of it to animals, the US government pays some farmers to just throw it into the ocean, or where ever else they can find do dump it

[stray apex]

No, in terms of resource usage you can feed far more people per acre of corn than per acre of grass used to feed your free-range cows

[summer folio]

Also pretty sure farmers making vegan food, use animal bones to fertilise their fields.

[slate tulip]

so, according to my brief research, it seems that we are both right

[fierce moth]

I am incredibly confused

Someone give me a tldr

[polar fern]

beef research? 😛

[fossil frost]

so, committee who was told to find waste... estimated a bunch of waste... or... did they go and ASK everyone? because im pretty sure i didn't get asked how much i waste.. all studies like that are utter bollocks

[manic torrent]

corn is a pox upon humanity. No more corn.

[stray apex]

Basically, the reality of the food chain means that the closer you are to the sun, the more efficient you can be used for energy
This means that plants are fundementally superior in terms of food out for resource in
Unfortunately some people are big meat stans

[slate tulip]

• (some) animals process plants more efficiently than we do, making meat better for us to eat from the point of view of "what's the best way to get nutrients in my body"
• however, we can produce MUCH more plants in the same acreage than we can produce meat, theoretically greatly offsetting the reduced efficiency of eating plants

[vapid smelt]

high fructose corn syrup

[stray apex]

But what will the poor little corn farming corporations do

[fossil frost]

its more complicated than that... efficiency is based on the individual animals biology too... try feeding a rabbit some beef... it wont get much out of it... try feeding a lion some carrots... it will get fuck all out of it...

[stray apex]

Do you want little Timmy to not get a yacht for Christmas?

[stray apex]

Did you fail middle school biology

[fossil frost]

no, but im sure you will do when you finally get there

[stray apex]

Everything that lives must use energy to continue living

As such, something that eats plants will be less energy-efficient than something that eats the sun

[summer folio]

How will the Ice Cube sellers survive if you're allowed to buy freezers?
Get another job.

How will artist make a living when Piracy is free?
Get a real job.

[stray apex]

Because the plant can just eat the sun, but the animal needs to spend energy to eat the sun

[fossil frost]

ive had enough of this... pointless trying to change the mind of somebody so closed minded and is incapable of looking at opinions other than their own... im going to bed

[slate tulip]

gah. It would be great if work didn't suddenly start throttling my WSL updates

[stray apex]

This is literally grade seven biology

[young bloom]

fr

[stray apex]

As in, this is information we teach twelve year olds

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_flow_(ecology)

Like, it's not some niche hippy thing

[young bloom]

however in terms of nutritional values it varies per animal

energy-wise plants are better yes

[stray apex]

Almost everything comes from either the sun or the dirt

(or the air)

[halcyon nest]

hey guys

Do you usually format your pc/laptop like once a year or maybe more or less ?

Will it help my pc get rid of all of the junk and boost the performance a bit

[summer orchid]

useless info

[halcyon nest]

I have tried using softwares like Ccleaner but nothing really changes

[stray apex]

yes
trophic levels are definitely useless in regards to the efficiency of meat

why do you think we don't eat carnivores

[slate tulip]

Convention

[vapid smelt]

some places eat dogs

[modern terrace]

i pretty much bought everything i'd need in terms of pc parts but i have a 100 dollar gift card and idk what to spend it on

i also don't want it to go to waste

[chrome rover]

hey guys

[stray apex]

yeah, but we domesticated them earlier for other reasons

[chrome rover]

how often are your setups cleaned, to prevent dust buildup and other stuff just wondering

[modern terrace]

whenever i sneeze and a buildup of dust is blown everywhere

[young bloom]

then clean your space

[chrome rover]

oh yeah was trying to say that

[young bloom]

get a cloth and wipe down your furniture

💀

[vapid smelt]

does tuna not count since we dont breed them?

[stray apex]

energy efficiency is not so important if you don't have to worry about how they get their energy, yeah

[unkempt widget]

OwO

what the fuck

why has sub still not kicked in

@full fossil this is all your fault >:(

[polar fern]

which sub?

[unkempt widget]

i subbed yesterday

i still don't have the role

[polar fern]

to what/where?

[unkempt widget]

to ltt twitch

[leaden gale]

Is your Twitch linked to your Discord

[unkempt widget]

yes

[polar fern]

yeah gotta link it

[vapid smelt]

inb4 you did the wrong one

[polar fern]

unlink it thren re-link it

[unkempt widget]

tried that twice

hmmm

maybe third time's the charm

[polar fern]

check twitch make sure the account is the correct one

[unkempt widget]

it's linustech right?

[polar fern]

yep

[summer folio]

Itt Twitch

[unkempt widget]

wow it just doesn't work

[polar fern]

you sure all the accounts are correct?

[unkempt widget]

wdym

it's linked to this discord account

maybe i'll leave server

[polar fern]

hmm maybe dooley can help i dunno _-

[unkempt widget]

i got warshipped

[vapid smelt]

https://www.twitch.tv/linustech you mean linustech?

[unkempt widget]

that's what i subbed to

[glass lantern]

Why do people use the word factious as a synonym for sarcasm when thats not what it means?

[unkempt widget]

i even sent a message there

[polar fern]

does the subscription button allow you to subscribe?

[glass lantern]

LINUS

[polar fern]

are you doing prime sub or paid?

[unkempt widget]

wait am i not allowed to use a prime sub

[polar fern]

thats not what i asked

[unkempt widget]

anyways i'm using a prime sub

[polar fern]

does it say "manage subscription" on their twitch page?

[leaden gale]

Prime subs will work, I've done that in the past

[unkempt widget]

yes

[polar fern]

you sure its the right twitch account linked?

[unkempt widget]

yes

you can check in my profile

[vapid smelt]

have you tried doing it correctly

[polar fern]

something in the process isnt correct

[unkempt widget]

no

[summer folio]

https://10scopes.com/discord-twitch-sub-role-not-working/

[unkempt widget]

maybe someone turned it off

[summer folio]

[polar fern]

when did you activate the subscription

[unkempt widget]

yesterday, around 22 hours ago

i uninstalled and reinstalled, still didn't work

[polar fern]

i see you joined discord not long after the start of the pandemic. hope you're doing ok.

are you on desktop or mobile?

[unkempt widget]

desktop

[unkempt widget]

joined discord to keep in touch with friends during the pandemic

[polar fern]

mhm

[unkempt widget]

now i have no friends :(

[polar fern]

yeah - been a rough few years for most people

we'll get you sorted out with your roles no worries, just gotta be patient

twitch is not known for its stability/reliability

so it may very well be on the aws end

[unkempt widget]

i've missed so many opportunities to ruin people's days with gifs

[halcyon nest]

Hey I wanted to keep up with the question I asked earlier but probably got lost already.
Should I format my laptop once a year or maybe more or less ?
Will it really boost my performance or it's not worth it

[polar fern]

no

just keep your drives clean from extra crap

[unkempt widget]

as in partition drives

[polar fern]

and clean your cooling stuff regularly

fans/heatsinks etc

[unkempt widget]

also i used to always be told if i store stuff on my C drive, it'll slow down my computer

[polar fern]

im guessing your c drive is an ssd?

[halcyon nest]

first off it's a laptop

[polar fern]

mhm

[unkempt widget]

yes

[halcyon nest]

So I don't really have much access to the hardware

[polar fern]

yeah i always recommend people to store stuff on a second hdd or non-boot ssd

[muted cairn]

@unkempt widget You shouldn't store stuff on your main SSD just install programs and your OS

[halcyon nest]

There is one ssd that holds everything but games

small 115gb ssd

then one hdd 1tb holding warzone 2

that's all

[polar fern]

you can take most laptop bottom panels off to clean and perform servicing

[unkempt widget]

will it slow down your computer though

[polar fern]

if you load your boot drive with other software? yes

[unkempt widget]

what if that's my only drive

will partitioning it help

[polar fern]

nah

[halcyon nest]

partioning means separating them ?

[unkempt widget]

so now i got a new non-boot ssd. should i transfer all the files there

[polar fern]

my recommendation is to have a secondary drive that is used for storing larger files and apps

and leave the boot drive to have minimal stuff on it

[unkempt widget]

oh ok

[halcyon nest]

I have 2 languages and 2 compilers on ssd. Should I move them to hdd ?

[polar fern]

like sure you can put some apps on the boot drive, but generally you want that longevity from reduced writes

[pliant karma]

^ that is what i do for the most part. My 980 pro is a glorified boot drive that i just hold temp files before moving to my 3 other drives

though my 980 pro is slowly on its deathbed.

[polar fern]

a good CMR hdd should be fine for most bulk storage

if you have the money, there are other storage options

[halcyon nest]

@polar fern any thoughts on this ?

[polar fern]

languages like programming languages?

[halcyon nest]

yeah

[pliant karma]

still have my old trusty 8tb I shucked from an external hdd but it's permanent to this pc

[polar fern]

i'd agree with that but make sure its a CMR drive

[muted cairn]

I still have my 1 TB Western Digital HDD

I want to replace it with a Samsung Evo 870 2 TB SSD

[pliant karma]

fun it's only 1 year 3 months old

[unkempt widget]

what's a cmr drive

[polar fern]

i have one of those older 1 tb western digital mybook external hdd's its a full sized drive too, not a skinny mini like most external drives are these days

cmr conventional magnetic storage

[pliant karma]

I got the 870 qvo 2tb, rocking 2 of them one for files shit, and the other for project/camera footage backup.

[unkempt widget]

my strategy if my drives fail is to cry

[muted cairn]

@pliant karma I keep hearing that QVO's are worst than 870 Evo's

[pliant karma]

ummm what else 2tb 970 evo plus is my game drive and the 8tb wd red is just there because.

[polar fern]

smr means the tracks are layered a bit on top of the next one, so if there is a problem you lose a ton of data all at once

[pliant karma]

its been fine for me since I got it in mid 2021

[polar fern]

smr is shingled magnetic recording

[muted cairn]

My main OS is on NVME Samsung Evo 970 Plus 1 TB SSD

[pliant karma]

both are at 99% which I mean for 2 years is not bad so

[unkempt widget]

what software do you use for this

[polar fern]

smr is fine for stuff you dont care if you lose, or you can get a reliable smr for budgetary reasons, but i'd advise against it

[pliant karma]

crystal disk info

[muted cairn]

I got 2 1 TB Samsung Evo 870's/1 500 GB Samsung Evo 850 SSD/and 1 Western Digital SATA HDD 7200 RPM Drive

[night heron]

2 years for 99 is great

[muted cairn]

Plus my 970 Plus 1 TB NVME SSD

[polar fern]

i have a wd myclous NAS with 4x 2tb wd red (the older red not the newer crap ones)

i had to scrap my NAS plan so its not in use at the moment, however the data is still on there

[night heron]

i own the least reliable hard drive of all time

not kidding

[unkempt widget]

oh no my boot ssd has 99% health

[night heron]

im pretty sure it has the highest failure rate of any drive

[vapid smelt]

the one linus dropped?

[polar fern]

hitatchi deathstar?

[night heron]

the 3tb seagate barracuda

[polar fern]

oh no

[unkempt widget]

Total Host Writes: 27475 GB

[night heron]

ive had it since 2017

[polar fern]

arent those the ones that do the death click?

[unkempt widget]

(this is 2 years old)

[pliant karma]

97 though after a year you know something is up

[night heron]

not sure but i think the failure rate is nearly 50%

mine is on caution lmao

[polar fern]

i moved away from seagate after that

all my old computers are seagate or hitachi

[unkempt widget]

is there no percentage?

[night heron]

hynix p41 chillin tho

[polar fern]

100 broken sectors?

[unkempt widget]

how does it even determine percentage

[polar fern]

the header file has all that info

[vapid smelt]

math

[pliant karma]

my luck with seagate barracudas I’ve had 4 die so I have up on their consumer drives. Enterprise though maybe

[polar fern]

my one old mac has a quantum fireball

[night heron]

so hwinfo64 says to qualify for a drive warning you need 2 bad sectors

[polar fern]

i only use it for os9 tho

[night heron]

my barracuda has 16

[pliant karma]

Wd I’m still rocking old blues that are 5 years old still running

[night heron]

i have 10 year old hard drives in my nas

with 0 warnings

2tb seagate enterprise drives of some sort made in 2012/13

[polar fern]

really depends on the timing - there have definitely been some bad batches and some really good ones

[pliant karma]

Lol I got a 2 boxes of used hdds so I’m at a surplus if I need a spare

[muted cairn]

Imagine using a HDD for a boot drive for Windows 11

[unkempt widget]

it's faster

[night heron]

there's probably millions of people using windows 11 on a hard drive

[unkempt widget]

idk if it's placebo or smth, but it's faster

[pliant karma]

Ima do that thx for the idea

[night heron]

tens of millions at least

[pliant karma]

I hate booting off hdds but ima torture myself for a bit doing it

[polar fern]

my next thinkcentre will have an ssd boot drive and a bulk hdd for everything else hopefully

bbl dinner

[night heron]

bbl dinner

[muted cairn]

Imagine using IDE or SCSI HDD's for a boot drive for Windows 11 oh the pain

[dreamy rose]

i had a WD Scorpio Blue to boot off of for a long time. Fucking thing was 80 MB/s

[night heron]

i have a laptop with a 2c2t 2ghz pentium, single channel ddr2, and ide HDD

last time i tried to use it i waited 15 minutes and windows 10 still wasnt functional

just frozen stuck at 100% cpu 100% disk

[dreamy rose]

now i have a Teamgroup CX2 256GB. just plain better

[white fractal]

Hmm, I wonder how bad it would be to boot windows 11 with 15k rpm scsi hdds

[unkempt widget]

if that single channel ddr2 is 4gb it would be eligible to ugrade

[night heron]

2gb

[muted cairn]

@night heron I got a Compaq CQ56-190wm with a Intel Celeron 900 that is slow AF with booting Windows 7

[polar fern]

i have hdd's from the 1990's stored. gotta pull any archive worthy stuff off them and e-recycle

[unkempt widget]

15k rpm?

[night heron]

e-recycling hard drives be like

[white fractal]

Yup

[unkempt widget]

i thought the highest was 7200 rpm

[night heron]

time to drill holes through my hard drive

[polar fern]

ohh those

oh no my dude there are very high rpm drives

[muted cairn]

Take a hammer to it

[night heron]

just drill several holes through the platter

[unkempt widget]

ooh is anyone here when i had my ted talk about how fast france is as a hard drive

[night heron]

that's the standard for drive disposal

[white fractal]

For consumer, enterprise used 10k and 15k ultra3 scsi towards the end of the day or scsi drives

[polar fern]

speed holes

[muted cairn]

Why not rent a jackhammer

[dreamy rose]

i have a Compaq armada E500 and its got no charger. it runs XP and its using a 10 gig IBM Travelstar

[white fractal]

I just decommission my HDDs with a sledgehammer and a very big nail

[polar fern]

scsi has those huge wide cabled with like 40 lanes

[muted cairn]

Who remember HDDSSD?

A HDD that uses SSD for cache

[white fractal]

Ultra320 iirc

[lucid stirrup]

hey so college wifi blocks voice chat in games... would a vpn get around that?

[polar fern]

oh the hybrid drives?

[night heron]

that's actually a pretty good idea, they just didnt have enough ssd cache

hard drives with 16gb or 32gb optane cache modules work really well

[unkempt widget]

literally 1984

[white fractal]

I have one, and it was fucking terrible

[polar fern]

a vpn could, unless they thought of that

[night heron]

they only gave them like 64mb of cache

[unkempt widget]

seeing linus run around in a rack is painful

[night heron]

if it was like 16gb they wouldve been pretty popular

[muted cairn]

Seeing Linus as your boss is painful

[unkempt widget]

oh god imagine having linus as your boss

[polar fern]

remember when a 4 gig hdd was the standard for consumer prebuild?

[unkempt widget]

what the fuck

[muted cairn]

@unkempt widget Linus had too many accidents on the job

[night heron]

no but i had a 4gb xbox 360

[muted cairn]

I remember 5.25 inch HDD's before they came out with 3.25 inch HDDs

[unkempt widget]

1 3 2 0 days since the last accident

[polar fern]

from 1998-2008 hdd capacities got nuts

[white fractal]

If he does even half the things he talks about on the wan show, he would be by far one of the best bosses I would have seen

[full fossil]

No

[muted cairn]

@unkempt widgetLinus Accident Tips

[night heron]

i got on pc around late 2005 early 2006

[unkempt widget]

that was a joke

[night heron]

but i was probably using like 1998 hardware

[unkempt widget]

ngl linus would be a nice boss, he seems to have a decent relationship with employees

[muted cairn]

@white fractal Linus almost got into a fight with his camera guy I think

[polar fern]

linus sounds like he cares which most ceo/owners do not ot at least dont enough

[muted cairn]

Because he scratch his new house's wooden floors....

[unkempt widget]

he didn't almost get into a fight with dennis though

he did get into a fight with dennis

[muted cairn]

@unkempt widget Dennis knows Jeet Kune Do

[lucid stirrup]

what vpn do i try?

[vapid smelt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-kMNoHzsjE no he did

[unkempt widget]

linus might've won the fight, but dennis is the real winner for kicking his boss 2 times in the face without getting fired

wait dennis is his camera man?

[polar fern]

thats called workplace resource management

[unkempt widget]

i thought he was just the channel super fun guy

[muted cairn]

@unkempt widgetLinus ain't Conor McGregor

He might look like him but he can't fight like Conor McGregor

[polar fern]

any workplace where the boss acts like the king/queen = gross

[unkempt widget]

true

[muted cairn]

I can defeat Linus I know Tae Kwon Do and Hapkido

[waxen stream]

boxing is confusing

[polar fern]

can you defeat him at dropping things unintentionally?

[waxen stream]

or like taykwondoe or stuff

[vapid smelt]

I have a big iron

[unkempt widget]

btw i have a cherry mx blue keyboard and it sounds completely different than a different cherry mx blue keyboard

[muted cairn]

Ummm no

[polar fern]

f

[waxen stream]

like its just up to judges opinion?

[muted cairn]

I thought you got a big fish Penguin

[unkempt widget]

this one's like half the noise

[waxen stream]

kinda goofy

[unkempt widget]

you score points in boxing

[polar fern]

the mounting plate can dampen noise, i think

[unkempt widget]

whoever gets knocked out first loses

[muted cairn]

Linus weakness "Sweep the Leg" - Karate Kid style

[polar fern]

-gets out broom and dustpan-

[unkempt widget]

but if neither side gets knocked out, then it comes down to the points

[polar fern]

remember when tyson bit that guy's ear?

[muted cairn]

I can do a nasty roundhouse kick just like Chuck Norris

[polar fern]

i wonder how many points that was

[unkempt widget]

💀

[muted cairn]

@polar fern That fight was crazy Mike Tyson is a crazy guy

[polar fern]

i watched that live on pay per view

we were like "uh"

[unkempt widget]

bruh when was that even

[polar fern]

96?

[unkempt widget]

are you that old

[polar fern]

1997

[waxen stream]

1996 he said lol

hey if you count one and a half as multiple decades, i am too

[muted cairn]

Rocky Balboa vs Linus

[leaden gale]

Everyone pronounces it as "paper view", trust me

[polar fern]

im closer to 50 than 30

[unkempt widget]

i mean you're better than me who confused linus for linux for idk how long

[muted cairn]

@leaden gale Pocket Sand

[polar fern]

pocket sand .. whweres that from

[unkempt widget]

i was so confused when they used windows for benchmarking their most average pc

[muted cairn]

Dale Gribble from King of The Hill

[polar fern]

ahh yeah

[unkempt widget]

and then i went "oh it's probably because the average person uses windows"

[leaden gale]

[polar fern]

i remember that episode haha

asbestos dust is way better

[muted cairn]

@vapid smelt Cancerous Dust.....deadly

I had pull my handgun out at work after a woman tried to attack me behind our dumpster area. She was warned twice to leave the area. And she grab my face and scratch me.

[polar fern]

(warning - flashing lights) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixN40xO9tNA

[muted cairn]

I had scars on my left part of my cheek and I press charged on her for assault and criminal trespassing

She was looking for food and our dumpster only has E-waste and cardboard boxes

basically she attack because I told her to leave.

[polar fern]

sad -_-

[unkempt widget]

she attacc

what even was the meme

[muted cairn]

We got a major homeless problem that they beg for money and digging thru our dumpsters

[vapid smelt]

as long as they put the trash back i dont mind

[unkempt widget]

how is that a problem

sounds like they're just trying to live

[polar fern]

we got a major societal & governmental dysfunction problem... but not gonna touch that subject

[muted cairn]

They always lurk our office and our dumpster area. Which is near a gas station that is always busy. Plus the homeless camp is nearby

[unkempt widget]

what's your point

[muted cairn]

The county near our business lets them stay at the camp at night and during the day they have to out of the camp until 5 p.m.

[unkempt widget]

isn't that literally every homeless camp

[muted cairn]

They always panhandle and beg for money then if they can't get cash. They try to steal our metal E-Waste to sell to the Metal recycling center near our business which is down the road.

[unkempt widget]

it sounds like you're not gonna use it

so why shouldn't they take things out of dumpsters when they were originally gonna go thrown out

[muted cairn]

@unkempt widget we recycle a lot of metal except the junk that isn't worth recycling they steal that stuff

[unkempt widget]

so you're saying they shouldn't take the trash because it's useless

[muted cairn]

@unkempt widget No it's fine but they're leaving a mess and cutting thru our fence

[unkempt widget]

ah

[muted cairn]

and my boss wants them off our property

[unkempt widget]

maybe put the garbage bin in a more accessible location that doesn't require trespassing?

[vapid smelt]

when i worked at a thrift store they would cut our 6 foot high chain link fence to dig through our huge metal dumpster

[unkempt widget]

but that's just me, you do you

[muted cairn]

A co-worker of mine had a screw in his tire because those homeless people completely trashed our back alley.

[unkempt widget]

damn i didn't think it was that bad

[muted cairn]

Yeah it's getting bad. Last week I was sitting in my car and one of them banged on my window and ask me to give him $50 bucks.

Don't give them any eye contact

[wary summit]

fuck i dont have nitro

[unkempt widget]

hi

[unkempt widget]

get rekt

[muted cairn]

@unkempt widgetat my work place yes but where I live no....

[wary summit]

its a problem everywhere, but i'd say china is actually doing decently, unlike where i came from, you'd see them everywhere

[gritty forge]

I just found out my school has 12 server racks....

[muted cairn]

Nitro is cheap for $2.99

[wary summit]

NONONO

DO NOT get the "nitro basic"

[unkempt widget]

i haven't seen a homeless person for so long, usually they're in front of the temple

[wary summit]

yk you can get free nitro Classic stilll

[fluid ridge]

is this not normal?

[wary summit]

yea and the ones infront of the temples are like actually cared for and not drug addicts

Maybe cigarrets but they're cheap

[unkempt widget]

and they have qr codes that you can scan

[gritty forge]

no, its a crummy public school 💀

[wary summit]

WeChat pay

[unkempt widget]

yes wechat pay

[wary summit]

[wary summit]

[fluid ridge]

eh in the end i gave up and bought the talon i wanted

[unkempt widget]

i'm so fucking annoyed

[wary summit]

why

why are csgo knives so expensive

[fluid ridge]

because its the only game that not only allows but facilitates third party trading and selling

[unkempt widget]

holy fucking shit the guy who gave me food delivery thing put it outside and didn't bother to call me or ring the doorbell

And i got an insulated waterbottle from lttstore.com

[unkempt widget]

they didn't bother to call me so it just sat there for an hour at 0C

hey at least i can microwave the food

[wary summit]

bought a 0.65 yuan skin 😋

[manic torrent]

lol. if you're getting food delivered, you need to be watching that shit. That is not a small part of why we have and use cameras

[vapid smelt]

thats like free in us dollars

[unkempt widget]

my mom delivered it for me, i asked if it was there like 40 minutes ago

also we do have cameras recording

[unkempt widget]

(she didn't respond)

[manic torrent]

so check them

[unkempt widget]

no it's here now

i'm just annoyed because they didn't bother calling me

[manic torrent]

yes, but you should be checking them. it's on you.

[unkempt widget]

it tracks where the guy is on my mom's software, i asked her but it seems like she's asleep or smth

[muted cairn]

[sonic barn]

MeOw

[torn spruce]

Saw some kid in our school walking around with a Gigabyte 1080 box, I swear they are trying to flex but that is not a flex at all. (I'm not even sure if it is 1080, the box is hella small, it saw the big robotic eye tho.)

[fluid ridge]

i also wonder why MKBHD and linus dont upload in 8k despite having the cameras that easily do so

[loud yacht]

O tech support

[vapid smelt]

maybe the time it takes to upload and edit 8k

[plush rivet]

Not even a flex in the slightest lol

[plush rivet]

They have to pay to upload 8K

[fluid ridge]

maybe, but these folks also have monster machines year after year'

[manic torrent]

probably selling it (or buying)

[plush rivet]

He explained it in a video

[fluid ridge]

wait what?

ive uploaded a couple of 8k videos before, all free

[manic torrent]

nobody cares because nobody watches your videos

[fluid ridge]

i guess the bandwidth cost is pretty high up there then

[wary summit]

not even the cheepest. it's like 0.07 yuan cheepest Gali AR skin

[wary summit]

now I know where you live 😋

[manic torrent]

hey look at that free skins

I think I know why there aren't really obese people here in china...

[manic torrent]

You know that because I said it before, not from that picture

[wary summit]

prior knowledge, always a nice to bave

no but seriously I've walked on that street when I was like 11

[waxen stream]

FUUU i just got off a 2 hour phone call

[manic torrent]

how old are you now?

[waxen stream]

dude couldnt get his pc to turn on hes takng it to a repair shop

[wary summit]

15

[wary summit]

normal

[manic torrent]

ok, plausible. If you did though - I lived here then as well

[wary summit]

do you guys want to know why Chinese people don't get fat? 1. everything is smaller Coke, sprite 330ml instead of 365. 2. Energy drinks are also 330ml

600ml bottles are now 500ml

both types of cola cans are 330 ml

[manic torrent]

that's not why

[vapid smelt]

because they cant afford to

[wary summit]

it's cheaper than that CSGO skin

also

I can buy and consume alcohol

😋

bet that's different

Hey look, yellow tail Shiraz

[vapid smelt]

yes ruin your developing brain

[wary summit]

fr

no, but it is traditional to drink like a little at CNY

[manic torrent]

ok, so you got some wine? that don't impress me much

[wary summit]

underage without ID

that'd be great for my "friends" who steal in frankston

[polar fern]

Alcohols are toxic substances

[wary summit]

I know

I'm not a dumb teen vape and alcohol addict

[polar fern]

You don’t need to be addicted to something for it to be harmful

[wary summit]

it doesn't need to be harmful to be addicted

[manic torrent]

but addiction, by definition, is harmful

[polar fern]

Nicotine is a toxin as well

[manic torrent]

if it's not harmful, you're not addicted

[wary summit]

yes, never have too much of anything

[polar fern]

A literal drop of nicotine put into a human bloodstream would kill them within a few minutes

[manic torrent]

same as caffeine

[polar fern]

Yes

Some of the oldest natural toxins

Pre-human for sure

Pretty good proof of evolution having branches

[slate sparrow]

We could just evolve

[polar fern]

We have no pressure to evolve currently

We are likely a dead end.

[lament willow]

imagine needing caffeine fr

[polar fern]

What do you mean?

[night heron]

evolution is obsolete

[lament willow]

imagine relying on caffeine

[polar fern]

For what?

[night heron]

we can do genetic modification and skips millions of years

[lament willow]

to wake up

[polar fern]

Who says we’re supposed to be here in millions of years?

[lament willow]

what else do caffeine addicts need caffeine for

[night heron]

us

[polar fern]

I use caffeine medicinally

[night heron]

i dabble in the herb

[polar fern]

I refuse to let my asd take over & that’s what happened when I took medication for my adhd

So I use caffeine instead - tea

Helps me sleep

[night heron]

i like caffeine sleep on occasion

[polar fern]

Without it my brain basically has no off switch

Before regular tea drinking I’d be awake 2-3 days at a time

That whole cabinet & the one to my right is full of tea stuff

[manic torrent]

who says anything ever. No rules, no masters.

[polar fern]

Mhm

My brain is completely done in and I really just need to watch a movie right now

[tawny thicket]

Relax with some classical music https://youtu.be/Bs5QGN-zhwM

[polar fern]

O I usually have stuff like that on when I am doing the dishes or wiping down the groceries right now I just need to zone out and watch a movie that I know I will enjoy

Thanks for the suggestion tho very much appreciated

[wary summit]

Just realized

I can buy cheap in china and sell on other markets.

[polar fern]

[lament willow]

L’EGGO MY EGGO

[vapid smelt]

nearly every company on amazon does that

[graceful burrow]

It's called dropshipping

[dreamy rose]

Scalpin

[graceful burrow]

You need to learn your terms bud

It isn't scalping if there's cheaper supply elsewhere

[dreamy rose]

thats exactly the point of Scalping. Selling for more.

[heady flicker]

not quite

[graceful burrow]

When there's no other stock

[dreamy rose]

theres Cheaper supply out there

[vapid smelt]

so asus and msi and other aib are scalpers since they buy the cards from Nvidia

[graceful burrow]

There being cheaper supply inherently makes it not scalping

[manic torrent]

arbitrage

in his opinion, all arbitrage == scalping

[polar fern]

Arbitrage? isn’t that a town outside Muncie Indiana?

[dreamy rose]

they actually make products. not buy them and sell them as is in box brand new

[vapid smelt]

they tweak them and resell them

[manic torrent]

so all retailers are scalpers

[dreamy rose]

exactly. completely different because they are making a Product and selling it. just not. Buying it and selling it like Scalpers.

[vapid smelt]

just like amazon sellers

[dreamy rose]

huh so you can buy those.

[cosmic coyote]

I don't understand how with google we still get definitions wrong

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/scalpers.asp
"A scalper, in the context of market supply-demand theory, also refers to a person who buys large quantities of in-demand items, such as new electronics or event tickets, at regular price, hoping that the ITEMS SELL OUT. The scalper then resells the items at a higher price."

[vapid smelt]

https://tenor.com/view/futurama-bender-bender-bending-rodriguez-fry-philip-j-fry-gif-22941842

clearly anyone that makes money selling goods is a scalper

[cosmic coyote]

https://www.bigcommerce.com.au/blog/dropshipping/
"Dropshipping is an order fulfillment method that does not require a business to keep products in stock. Instead, the store sells the product and passes on the sales order to a third-party supplier, who then ships the order to the customer."

[cosmic coyote]

supermarket is scalping the damn vegetables

[vapid smelt]

ikr

[hollow pulsar]

Scalpers usually take advantage of a market situation to artificially drive up prices and derive a higher profit.

They usually don’t have supplier agreements either to help control costs to the consumer.

[sonic barn]

Look at retailers then

And grocery stores

They are all scalpers by that logic

[vapid smelt]

the best logic

[sonic barn]

Let's just ditch retail stores

Buy directly from nvidia

No Asus GPUs, msi or all that

Just Nvidia, amd and now Intel

[hollow pulsar]

Expect a price hike so they can handle direct-to-consumer support for hardware.

[vapid smelt]

but AMD buys from TSMC clearly amd is scalping us

[sonic barn]

But they are designed not by tsmc, they are just a factory

[vapid smelt]

[sonic barn]

They are children working, whereas the adults get all their money

I also paid 20$ to get my gym course changed, nice

I'm not doing weight lifting

[vapid smelt]

Weak

[manic torrent]

scalpers typically don't drive the prices up per se, they are taking advantage of a pre-existing market condition.

[sonic barn]

More like neurology team said I shouldn't lift heavy stuff

I'd rather not die lifting dumbbells

I'll wait to die from the next ebola outbreak

[full fossil]

I like how there is 8 people on the server named Linus and none of them is the actual Linus

[hollow pulsar]

Is it scalping if they aren’t driving up prices?

[vapid smelt]

we all know ltt linus is the only person name Linus in the whole world

[sonic barn]

Would be cool if there's a virus that makes us all hive minds

[manic torrent]

scalping is done with tickets. They are a fixed quantity item. Selling those tickets above cost is the market value - they haven't driven up the prices, they are taking advantage of a market condition.

[sonic barn]

Imagine just waking up and you know what's going on without looking at news

[manic torrent]

scalpers CAN drive up prices, but they do not have to. If they do, it's generally more of a market manipulation.

[manic torrent]

... not hard. More bullshit capitalism.

[strange elk]

🥜

[sonic barn]

Talking about a hive mind virus

Like the flood from halo

Would be cool if that's real

[manic torrent]

go watch sense8

Hey. Any steam deck users, i wanted to ask did ya think of needing a bigger carrying case to pack your accessories

[vapid smelt]

ME ME IM ONE

[balmy drum]

I never thought about it

does the steam deck even need accessories tho

[balmy anchor]

Dock, powerbank. Only accesories i would take

Charger i would take anyway for my phone

[vapid smelt]

My jsaux case fits it all

[balmy drum]

oh yeah the doc

[full fossil]

but ig like a 1 mm difference between the leg and the drawer wouldn't matter

[balmy anchor]

Im sure my power bank would be like 3 times bigger :D. Im thinking about baseus 30000mah 65w

[vapid smelt]

i dont carry a power bank the brick is slim and flat charger

[full fossil]

Looks cool

[balmy anchor]

Whats your model? Im thinking to get 64gb and just upgrade to 2tb because im thinking of dual boot and emulation

[vapid smelt]

base model you can save up to $160 doing the upgrade yourself

[balmy anchor]

Ehh when going on longer rides and playing stronger games would drain it and would only be able to charge in the evening so bigger would be better

[balmy anchor]

Yeah thats what im thinking

I saw aaaa lot of listings selling the SN740 2tb on ebay

Around 270 to 300

Anyways

[balmy drum]

I think I need to upgrade my cpu, it's bottlenecking my gpu

[vapid smelt]

emulating games like super mario sunshine i can get around 5 hours

[balmy drum]

I have a ryzen 7 5800x and an rx480

[balmy anchor]

Lol i never played anything nintendo

[full fossil]

LMAO

[balmy drum]

yeah but the card can't operate at full power

I'm not joking

[vapid smelt]

480 8gb?

[balmy drum]

4gb

[balmy anchor]

Just the problem of the game not the cpu lol

[full fossil]

480 4gb

wait no way i was joking

[balmy drum]

I'm getting 500fps in val

[full fossil]

[balmy drum]

[full fossil]

its cpu intensive

[balmy drum]

my monitor is 1000hz

[full fossil]

[full fossil]

i believe it

[balmy drum]

I'm a val player lol

[dreamy rose]

[balmy anchor]

Hows the steam deck in general for you?

[full fossil]

[graceful burrow]

Love mine to bits

[vapid smelt]

other then the weak battery life and meh screen i love it

[balmy drum]

you just agreed with me

[knotty hazel]

Crap typo

[dreamy rose]

Steam Deck lit. we are gonna need some updated hardware tho.

[knotty hazel]

The gpu is bottlenecking the cpu

[balmy drum]

I play val so my cpu is bottlenecking the cpu

[balmy anchor]

Lol screen mot gonna be much of a problem when i almost cant see diffrence on 60hz vs 120hz

[balmy drum]

cuz I play low res low settings

[vapid smelt]

not the hz just the brightness and color quality

[dreamy rose]

i play low res low settings low fps

[balmy drum]

are you on crt

[balmy drum]

oof

[balmy anchor]

Lol ive not seen better stuff than my phone so i dont know stufd

[dreamy rose]

and not by choice

[balmy anchor]

Nah 60hz 1080p ips

[balmy drum]

what's your specs

[fluid ridge]

why use a crt when you can have quantum dot oled with dolby vision @ 8k

[balmy anchor]

[balmy drum]

60 to 120hz on ips is huge though

[balmy anchor]

I dont see for some reason

[dreamy rose]

Mine? i5 2450m GT 540M DDR3 1GB and 8GB of DDR3

[balmy drum]

damn those specs are baller

[balmy anchor]

Mine is an overheating i5-8300h and 1050ti mobile

[dreamy rose]

[balmy anchor]

Im used to games at around 45 fps

[dreamy rose]

i'm used to single digits and low Teens

[balmy drum]

bruh 💀

I game at 24fps

on controller on valorant

[balmy anchor]

I played gta 5 at 10-17 fps for 2 years

[dreamy rose]

at least its Cinematic

[balmy drum]

this isn't a joke https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msptTbQFwXo

[dreamy rose]

yeah, so did i.

[balmy anchor]

I saw some tiktok showed valorant mobile

[balmy drum]

I did val mobile too hold on

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTuw83LVPLM

[dreamy rose]

except i haven't played as long and it decided to sop working until it miraculously fixed itself

[balmy anchor]

I mean native game with controls and stuff

[balmy drum]

that's not possible unless you saw the leaked beta gameplay

[balmy anchor]

I was searching a long time for a usb c hub to get for steam deck with 2 usb c and stuff but just said f it in the end and will buy a dock. Found some dock with usb c thats not hard wired in which i think i will like.

[balmy anchor]

Yeah leaked sh

[balmy drum]

oof

I play competitive val on controller

[balmy anchor]

Lol

Its coming to console also

[balmy drum]

yes but they are having aim assist so it's a trash game already

[full fossil]

I play Minecraft

[balmy anchor]

Me too

[balmy drum]

any game with aim assist can't be considered competitive

[balmy anchor]

330 mods lol

[balmy drum]

the game is just playing itself at that point

I'm plat 2 on controller

on console I would be silver 1 or lower cuz all the aim assist players

also I can't aim with thumbsticks to save my life cuz stick aiming is impossible

[balmy anchor]

Lol i never got to iron 3 on pc

[balmy drum]

oof

[hollow zealot]

I gave up playing valorant because I realized competitive games were bad for my mental health

[balmy drum]

mood

[hollow zealot]

Way too much stress for something that doesn't really matter

[balmy drum]

valorant is why I switched to crt

[hollow zealot]

Mostly due to league

[balmy drum]

165hz wasn't smooth enough

so I needed uber smoothness

[balmy anchor]

I only play fort when with a friend for fun. Hate the competitive sh i cant do stuff

[balmy drum]

I used to be super comp in fort

on mnk, then I switched to controller when I started playing val

[winged basin]

Is there like a website where you could put/choose the pc parts you currently have or plan to have and select a game and show the best optimal/quality/performance/highest fps/stable fps/smooth gameplay all-round settings where a group of people contributed or shared their settings in that game?
