and its inherent in many many many studies of almost anything... i.e. studies usually find the answers that the designer of the study wanted to find

[ruby venture]

And does fast booting in bios effect performance?

[runic lagoon]

That’s why he studies are usually performed double blind

[manic torrent]

it affects performance of boot

[graceful burrow]

Overall system performance? No.

[ruby venture]

Like fps

[manic torrent]

nice if you can do it - reality is a bitch 🙂

[fossil frost]

doesnt matter... the statistics can be interpreted in whatever way you want when you account for variables

[runic lagoon]

There also often money from companies to research what they want to find out. And not what they don’t want to find out.

[runic lagoon]

There some famous examples of fraud in science as well. 😂 there some good YouTube videos on the starch for new elements.

[wise tundra]

It only needs to have a fast boot time

[manic torrent]

Yes, it has never done this, and I am able to do anything else with my internet

I already confirmed with someone in Argentina too

[fluid ridge]

what a lucky guy

you get argentinian currency bruh

[void fable]

I don't

I'm in the US

And no, everything is expensive in Argentina

[fluid ridge]

steam games are scaled down in price in argentina

if you can have a US source of currency but an argentinian steam account you can pick up cyberpunk 2077 for less than 10usd

wow nvm it's less than 10 cad

[void fable]

Can't send pictures in this channel, nice

[polar fern]

Need to sub.

[devout grail]

I think you can if your a patron

[polar fern]

Nope

Twitch or floatplane

[devout grail]

you could just make your own 😉

[polar fern]

Make what now?

[devout grail]

your own streaming service

[polar fern]

Ah yes. Very simple.

[devout grail]

simple yes, well done no 🤣

[fluid ridge]

i mean you could

just make a jellyfin fork and ez

[slate tulip]

what if some people want to dom?

[devout grail]

or just buy an x server, and run quicktime streaming server form the 90s 😉

[normal prawn]

Hi guys, does anyone know a small USB speaker the size of a USB without cable which can stay into your laptop if you put the it into your bag?

It should be good enough to understand a newsreader

[frosty spear]

Anyone knows any way to transfer playlists from spotify to apple music?

[vagrant holly]

Does anyone know if this is Windows 11 or just Windows 10 with themes? https://ibb.co/6Dm3kvk
https://ibb.co/4FttsLZ

The screenshots are from this video https://youtu.be/4GASGO0go5I

[vagrant holly]

a page called TuneMyMusic does that I think

[finite cloud]

yeah thats windows 11

[normal prawn]

Its for mu 70+ dad. I need a plug 'n play thing as his CPU fan is louder than the built in speaker

I mean those things you sometimes see that have a male USB-C port for your phone. Only woth USB-A

[faint marlin]

What provider makes a custom rack like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzntUW34bv8

[normal prawn]

Something like this but with USB-A: https://images.app.goo.gl/1GKJ1WLewmpDRT2J8

[devout grail]

that looks like a mic XD

[normal prawn]

You get the point. Something that size as a speaker with USB-A or anything else that fits into a laptop case when the speaker is still connected

[devout grail]

But like hearing aid products there are speakers for tV, with analog hook ups. (so they can be plugged into a computer) headphones like BeHear NOW. hearing aids with built in bluetooth. harding aid loop transmitters transmitters that basicly send raido signal to any hearing aid in range that supports loops. (alot of them do) Cheap option is probably headphones.

[normal prawn]

Yeah, but he doesn't have a hearing aid (yet). And we both want to hear the computer

It's not that the volume is low, but it sounds low as the CPU fan is loud.

[devout grail]

that's a whole video.

[faint marlin]

the bright orange rack, that's featured throughout

Thought i'd timstamped the link to the first section

[devout grail]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzntUW34bv8 watch the start of this

pretty sure he names the comany in like first few minutes.

[faint marlin]

they don't mention it, which is why i asked

or I missed it

[muted iris]

I have the opportunity

To buy a Corsair 1000d for $100

Have no use for it, but it's a beautiful case

Should I go for it?

[manic torrent]

why is the fan so noisy? is it a laptop?

[unkempt widget]

do you like it

[manic torrent]

do what you think is best

[muted iris]

Ofc

It's a very sexy case. Just have no need for it, but it's a good price

[unkempt widget]

do you have the money for it

[muted iris]

And I can flip it for profit easily

[muted iris]

Dawg of course, I'm not some idiot who'll piss away his life savings for a case

I suppose it would give me an excuse to build a new PC. Still on my X99 rig

[unkempt widget]

https://space.bilibili.com/12434430/ no fucking way i didn't know about this

[full fossil]

ive got so many cases sitting around, id pass on it

unless ur buying it from me, then yes buy it

plz i need more room

[muted iris]

Or I could just chuck my rampage v in to the 1000d

To be fair, I know the room feeling

My girlfriend always nagging me about pc parts taking room

But again, her closet is like Vietnam itself

How many pairs of shoes does a woman need???????

[full fossil]

[muted iris]

I have like.... 5

She has like 20, lol.

[full fossil]

weird gender jokes arent my thing sadly

ur boyfreind could have 20 pairs as well if they wanted, let em do them

[muted iris]

I mean it's not a joke

Just saying she has a lot of shoes

[full fossil]

me too

[manic torrent]

for context, I have a full RGB/custom watercooling build in a perfectly good Lian Li O11 Dynamic. I plan on swapping the case to an O11 Dynamic XL Evo when they come out

[full fossil]

but why

[manic torrent]

My wife has a similar amount of shoes to me

[manic torrent]

because MOAR and BIGGER

It's a little cramped in the O11

[muted iris]

I mean yeah

[full fossil]

i regret my big case sometimes

[muted iris]

Not saying everyone man and every woman is the same

[full fossil]

only cus i need to move it sometimes

I just got my first truck

[manic torrent]

I mean, I'm literally hanging it from the ceiling

It’s Linus approved

[normal prawn]

It is

[nova ingot]

It’s a Scientific Fact that Linus approves it, the thumbnail said so. Also the Taboola clickbait screenshot shows someone pouring Coca Cola into their gas tank with the subtext “People are saving money on gas with this one cool trick”

[small zephyr]

okay i fianly know why every ender 3 user says to get an silent motherboard for it

i hope i will be able to sleep with that noise xD

[manic torrent]

I'd clean it out and repaste it, and maybe get a cooling pad

[winter spindle]

What’s an ender 3

[manic torrent]

protip - don't put a monitor against something and then rip your leg open on the back of the stand.

[normal prawn]

Yeah, and what if I'm not the admin and therefore not allowed to open it?

[fierce moth]

We are 90 seconds till midnight

[manic torrent]

Maybe try and work out why the fan is working so hard? possibly some software has gone rogue

[winter spindle]

I’m just asking

[manic torrent]

I'm just telling

[winter spindle]

3d printer

[manic torrent]

see now? That wasn't so hard

[winter spindle]

Lame

[normal prawn]

No, it's the age of the laptop. The admin told me. Can't do anything about it. That's why I mentioned a USB sized speaker

[manic torrent]

ok. I'd try blowing it out with compressed air if possible anyway. Always better to try and fix the root problem - even if it doesn't fix it entirely, it's still going to be better.

[full fossil]

If water is incompressible how can it be pressurized

[normal prawn]

True, but what if I end up going back to this chat and ask for a USB sized speaker which is louder than the fan, what would you recommend?

[manic torrent]

I see you don't understand physics

[hollow pulsar]

3D printers are lame?

[manic torrent]

I honestly don't know - but I know there are many around. I'd probably just look on amazon or something

[winter spindle]

They aren’t cool anymore

My opinion

[normal prawn]

Any recommendations?

[manic torrent]

this is a person who couldn't be bothered to google the name, so ehhh

[full fossil]

Wait I figured it out nvm

[manic torrent]

unfortunately no, it's just not a product area I've spent any time in, I don't need it

[manic torrent]

push against a wall. Now push harder. Did the wall move?

[full fossil]

I UNDERSTAND

[normal prawn]

Do you know a serverroom where there are people who might know?

[manic torrent]

yes but do you understand pressure vs flow?

[full fossil]

Yes

[manic torrent]

try #audio-tech

[normal prawn]

Tnx

[manic torrent]

most people don't 🙂

[unkempt widget]

water isn't incompressible

it's just very hard to compress right

[hollow pulsar]

Depends on the 3D printer I guess. My personal favorite is the type that lays down layers of metal dust in sand layer by layer, then you heat it up and it soaks up melted metal like a sponge to create a metal part.

[full fossil]

Pressure = force, flow = speed

[manic torrent]

yes but how do they interact

[full fossil]

You need pressure for flow but you don’t need flow for pressure

[manic torrent]

You can trade them. when you change the pipe size, you increase pressure, but you decrease flow

[full fossil]

You can have high pressure and high flow

[manic torrent]

you also get less friction losses with a smaller pipe

[full fossil]

Because less surface area

[manic torrent]

no, there's more surface area.

but there's less surface area vs volume

[full fossil]

Smaller diameter means less surface area

[sharp leaf]

So the cable I am using for HDR is a 1.2 DisplayPort cable but I read that 1.2 doesn’t support HDR. The cable that came with my LG monitor (HDR 240 Hz) allows me to run 240 hz but wasn’t allowing me to use HDR

[manic torrent]

oh wait I typed it wrong. derp

you get less friction losses with a BIGGER pipe.

[hollow pulsar]

I dunno. If I have a dam and need to move a lot of water, do I. Make 10,000 small pipes or 1 large one?

[full fossil]

Anyways sorry I gotta go

[full fossil]

1 large

[hollow pulsar]

Hahahah lololol I was wondering…

[manic torrent]

yeah, was right in my head, but my hands were like HEY FUCK YOU LET ME WRITE THE OPPOSITE

[hollow pulsar]

I was slyly suggesting hardwarebob vs. every successful dam civil engineer ever.

[manic torrent]

hahah yes

also - you cannot pump water more than about 7 metres up.

[hollow pulsar]

Water towers?

[manic torrent]

Let me be more specific - you cannot pump it up with the pump above the water more than 7m

[hollow pulsar]

Oh gotchya

[fierce moth]

I can not for the life of me find a og google home psu

[manic torrent]

because it's actually gravity pushing the water up into the pipe, and it's finite

[fierce moth]

Like a genuine one

[manic torrent]

they are cheap AF to buy

like the whole thing

[fierce moth]

You sure u know what I'm talkin about?

[manic torrent]

There's a lot of google home products - perhaps not.

[fierce moth]

It's the first Google home that Google released

[jaunty compass]

.

[fierce moth]

Has manual assistant hail

[manic torrent]

Does it just use a DC power supply?

https://reebelo.com.au/products/google-home-smart-speaker-white-slate-very-good-7bvs6?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=18215772681&utm_content=&utm_term=&gclid=CjwKCAiAoL6eBhA3EiwAXDom5qdOf4AJUQPbknmHWyh0uhKnxHBbIQVnQlVvgYxotgYCye9g-3DOAhoC3KoQAvD_BwE&gclid=CjwKCAiAoL6eBhA3EiwAXDom5qdOf4AJUQPbknmHWyh0uhKnxHBbIQVnQlVvgYxotgYCye9g-3DOAhoC3KoQAvD_BwE

[fierce moth]

I have the Google home itself

I just cant find the power supply

[manic torrent]

is it that?

[fierce moth]

Yeah

It uses a weird voltage

16.5v and 2a

[manic torrent]

2A is a decent whack!

[fierce moth]

And it requires a right angle plug

[manic torrent]

https://www.amazon.com.au/SOOLIU-Adapter-Charger-Speaker-W16033N1A/dp/B09FXGW4JR/ref=sr_1_7?crid=24ITW4H4J8HQR&keywords=google+home+power+supply&qid=1674610818&sprefix=google+home+power+supp%2Caps%2C236&sr=8-7

[fierce moth]

That isn't right angle

[manic torrent]

it says specifically for google home

[fierce moth]

If it isn't it won't lay down properly

@manic torrent https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/165431314407

This but with a Australian plug

[manic torrent]

yeah I saw a lot of those without australian plugs 🙂

[fierce moth]

A pain the the ass

I'll see if those us plugs can take 240v

[manic torrent]

I'd be tempted to just rip it open and change it

[fierce moth]

Then I can get a simple travel adapter

Seems like it does by looking at the markings in the photos

[manic torrent]

put a USB C plug in it that runs at 15V 3A

that should be fine

then you can just run it off any USB C PD

[full fossil]

just throw the google home away, problem solved

[fierce moth]

How about you shut up, it worked before and if it ain't broke don't fit it

[full fossil]

... ok

ima block you kinda rude for no reason

[fierce moth]

Oh wow

I'm so shook

[unkempt widget]

how come it doesn't fit

[fierce moth]

I'm using a google home mini v2 psu

It "works" but the voltage and amps are off

And I have to have it so the cable doesn't make it lift the device

[manic torrent]

just dremel a divot out

[fierce moth]

I sent a photo in #tech-chat-1

#tech-chat-1 message

[manic torrent]

oooooh so it comes out the bottom. That's annoying

[fierce moth]

Yep

Google fully intended for it to be a right angle plug

[finite cloud]

Is that the power cable?

[fierce moth]

It's a google home mini one

[manic torrent]

I don't think I ever had one of those types. We have two minis and two hubs

[finite cloud]

Oh, what happened to the old cable?

[manic torrent]

eaten by ghosts

[fierce moth]

Have zero idea

But the Google home shares the same cable as the mini v2 and the hubs

But the Google home one is right angle

And Google in their infinite wisdom does not provide replacements directly

[finite cloud]

I can see why they stopped doing right angle

[unreal thorn]

YT premium saves me battery both because I don't have to load the video playback and because I can turn off my screen. I got tired of burning through my battery

[manic torrent]

Sponsored by google(tm)

[fierce moth]

Now it's either do what I'm currently doing or get a sketchy psu off of ebay

[manic torrent]

on the contrary, there are lots of other options

[fierce moth]

I do have google home minis

But the first gen has some really good features

[finite cloud]

You might be able to get a sketchy right angle adapter

[fierce moth]

Like manual assistant hail

[finite cloud]

You should see my house

I have one of each in my room :)

Alexa, Google, and Siri

[fierce moth]

I have one echo dot cause I got it for like 10 bucks lol

Used it as a pc speaker

[finite cloud]

I have two home minis I got for about $40 total

I don’t really use them so I may get rid of them

I have a Nest Hub too that I use a lot and like

[fierce moth]

Ngl I just use my google homes to listen to music and control my lights

[finite cloud]

Basically all I use my assistants for

[fierce moth]

I don't really do the super advanced stuff

[finite cloud]

Timers, weather, music, smart fan, and light

[fierce moth]

Yeah I also do a bit of timers

[manic torrent]

aircon

morning routine

[fierce moth]

Although my phone can do that

[manic torrent]

garage door

casting TV/music

broadcasting stuff to other rooms

[fierce moth]

I gotta pay extra for that feature

Like a entire indoor unit

[manic torrent]

you really don't

[fierce moth]

I think

[manic torrent]

you interact with aircon via IR

I also replaced my heater thermostat with an ESP8266

little screen and a rotary encoder

[fierce moth]

There's stuff for that?

[manic torrent]

oh dude. Like you wouldn't believe.

I can literally change my screen input from home assistant

[fierce moth]

Cause the guys that installed my aircon said I need a different unit for smart shit

[manic torrent]

yes, because they are idiots who don't know shit about fuck

[fierce moth]

Or payed well by the big man

Cough cough fujitsu

[manic torrent]

nope, just don't know anything

They believe what they have been told

[finite cloud]

You can get one of those smart IR things to control it

[fierce moth]

What product do you use for it?

[manic torrent]

if you want pure plug and play with zero hassles, a sensibo will do it, but you pay for it.

If you are happy with a bit of fiddling, any IR blaster like a broadlink RM4 will do it

[fierce moth]

Yeah 327 aud for 3 units

[manic torrent]

yeah, IR blasters are cheap 🙂

but yeah, you can buy them right now, and set it up and have it working tomorrow

[fierce moth]

Convenience is expensive

[manic torrent]

indeed it is.

I have a sensibo, and I don't regret it, and it was suuuuuper easy, but I wouldn't buy one again.

[fierce moth]

The rm4 wouldn't be to bad to test

And since I have no need for Apple home kit I would be fine with it

[manic torrent]

I have an RM3, perfectly cromulent

[fierce moth]

Only 40 bucks for a rm4 mini

And 60 bucks for a rm4 pro

[dreamy otter]

I need to get a smart tv so I can have my tv auto turn on/off with my source

[manic torrent]

If you have a google chromecast plugged in, it can turn it on/off via CEC

[dreamy otter]

My PC is hooked into it

[fierce moth]

I can do that but not with the bloody chromecast remote

[dreamy otter]

It's a newer TV but the OS is some proprietary garbage with like 6 apps so I can't integrate it into Home Assistant

[fierce moth]

PC's can't output cec signals

[manic torrent]

• don't.

[dreamy otter]

Yeah I know

[manic torrent]

they CAN. they choose not to

[fierce moth]

But when I plug in my switch it works pretty well

[manic torrent]

We don't use remotes at all, because they are annoying and because 5year old button masher

[unreal thorn]

Evil

What's wrong with you

[fierce moth]

I would like to install smart locks but I want the tech to mature a bit more

[dreamy otter]

Avoid WiFi ones

Z-Wave or Zigbee is fine.. reason I say avoid WiFi is because of the battery drain

[unreal thorn]

WiFi is quite hackable

[fierce moth]

Zigbee is unencrypted iirc

[unreal thorn]

Someone hacking your wifi probably isn't breaking into your house

[dreamy otter]

Google says it uses AES

128-bit

[dreamy otter]

Also this.

[manic torrent]

I have a zigbee lock

[dreamy otter]

If someone wanted to get in they would just break a window

[unreal thorn]

Much easier

I would break a window

If I was a loser and broke into houses

[fierce moth]

There's no such thing as you can't break in

Unless if you're a president or something

[unreal thorn]

Actually I'd probably try charging into the door first

[fierce moth]

I have this giant magstrike and you would legit break the door before you could get that mag to move

[unreal thorn]

Sledge would be more robust

[manic torrent]

.... that is a tool SPECIFICALLY made for gaining entry.

[unreal thorn]

Blacksmith hammer even

[manic torrent]

I assure you they are extremely robust

[unreal thorn]

Not in that the tool would break but that it would be harder to stop a sledgehammer

[manic torrent]

it really wouldn't

[unreal thorn]

Why not?

[manic torrent]

because you use it as a lever, and physics wins every time

[fierce moth]

Security is only as strong as the weakest link

[manic torrent]

you swing the wedge into the door jam, and then you lever the door open

then you go again

[unreal thorn]

The sledgehammer can destroy the door itself

Drive it right through the doorknob

The lever is better for stealth

If you're trying to get through something shouldn't you use the tool designed to dismantle the house itself?

Kicking might also work, but will leave a boot print which is evidence

[manic torrent]

not as effective, and takes more energy on behalf of the user

[dreamy rose]

i'm getting impatient waiting for the RX 780M VR Benchmarks.

[full fossil]

it'll be great, calling it

[dreamy rose]

it might not be that good. but the fact its an iGPU doing VR Like a 1060 is just unthinkable

[lilac sage]

my 1060 3GB laptop was "VR Ready"

never tried it on there but prob painful

[dreamy rose]

yeah with only 3GB of VRAM. you want the 6GB version

[pulsar violet]

Quick question, I currently have a desktop rn but for uni I’m gonna need a laptop, could I get a laptop that is eGPU compatible and yoink my 3080 FTW3 Ultra from my PC and use it with that laptop probably when using for leisure?

[lilac sage]

yes you could

[pulsar violet]

Oh Alr

[lilac sage]

eGPU enclosures are unnecessarily pricey

[pulsar violet]

What about a mini ITX case?

Or something like that just for GPU

[dreamy rose]

get a Ryzen laptop and use some of those Sweet Integrated Graphics to game. it good

[lilac sage]

how are you gonna hook up a gpu to a laptop using just a case?

[balmy lotus]

Well my rx580 can handle an oculus quest games with low medium settings

[lilac sage]

gonan need some more electronics

[pulsar violet]

Yea I was thinking about getting the electronics separately but yea it would be easier that way

Or I could just try parsec maybe

Cause I haven’t tried parsec to its fullest yet

[dreamy rose]

if your internet isnt shit then yea

[pulsar violet]

Yea 50 MB/s

[full fossil]

just get a laptop with a top end mobile gpu

egpus are dumb

[dreamy rose]

idk if its just me being australian and internet being awful here but i have 50 and its not gonna work

[pulsar violet]

Yea that’s true just won’t want it to be outdated later

[full fossil]

welcome to technology

[pulsar violet]

Yea we are getting fiber next year

[full fossil]

everything gets outdated eventually

[pulsar violet]

I’ll just get a framework tbh

[dreamy rose]

this way of thinking "It becomes obsolete in a year" is dumb. you buy it and it works until it dies.

[pulsar violet]

Yea that’s true

[weak bridge]

you can use a thumb tack to shatter tempered glass, or u can use a sledgehammer

the thumb tack is much easier because its physics

[dreamy rose]

i hear way too much "You buy a new laptop it becomes Obsolete the next year" as an argument against them. like its the same shit with a Desktop

[unreal thorn]

Yeah and I'm biased because I like to put a lot of energy into things, it's fun and it's difficult to burn me out

[woven yew]

any f2p reccomendations?

[pulsar violet]

Yup, valid points but I’m probably not gonna cash out then be stuck with it for a long time probably go mid tier

[dreamy rose]

Team Fortress 2

[manic torrent]

not in the same way, and depending on where you are in the cycle you can upgrade easily.

[unreal thorn]

But I think the power behind a sledgehammer justifies the energy you put into it

[woven yew]

thats a classic, looking for some new stuff

[lilac sage]

if you ignore p2w, prob lost ark

[manic torrent]

I started with a 3600 and an X470 and now I have been through a 3700X and X570, and now 5700X, and upgraded ram to 32gb, and upgraded from 1660super to 3070, to 3080ti

can't do that with a laptop

[dreamy rose]

nothing wrong with stickin with the Classics. Super Animal Royale is a good one. though havent touched that one in ages.

[unkempt widget]

depends

do you like competitive games or rpgs or what

[woven yew]

both work for me

[dreamy rose]

Unfortunately people get sucked into Celeron/ Pentium systems

[manic torrent]

yeah, buying bottom tier stuff DOES mean it will be garbage

[dreamy rose]

the art for that reminds me a lot of Pop OS

[manic forge]

I have a 2008 pentium Lenovo and I like it

[dreamy rose]

same style i guess

[dreamy rose]

sure. for intel thats true. but Athlon? pretty good compared to Celeron/Pentium

or since they decided to kill off those lines what are they even calling them?

[manic forge]

I also got an athlon 64x2 4850e in a Pc now

[spark stratus]

so this may sound dumb, but is there a way to view just an HDMI capture with its sound? i dont want to stream it or anything i just want to output it to my pc so i dont have to have swap between different inputs. i thought about using OBS, but idk if it would use the full size screen and i know it can be finicky trying to capture audio sometimes

would vlc work maybe?

[manic torrent]

yes, but only in stereo

[spark stratus]

idc about surround tbh as long as i get audio

[dreamy rose]

idk why people bother with VLC when Windows Media Player is perfectly fine. like why? WMP comes with Windows

[manic torrent]

yeah, capture cards will capture stereo

[manic torrent]

JFC, aren't you always going on about how windows is crap?

[spark stratus]

i use VLC to watch DVDs and blurays

[dreamy rose]

yes. but WMP is the only thing thats on Windows that i wish was on Linux because it does everything i Want from a Media player. AKA it will play MIDIs

[manic torrent]

vlc plays midi......

[dreamy rose]

not out of the Box.

[spark stratus]

vlc is also open source IIRC

[manic torrent]

what do you mean not OOTB.

sure, you need a soundfont

but... that's how it goes

[dreamy rose]

every time i've tried running a MIDI i just get an Error and i dont bother because its pointless when WMP is there.

it runs it immediately with no need for Configuration.

[manic torrent]

so you tried nothing, and you're all out of ideas

[dreamy rose]

regardless of the whole Midi thing. for literally everything else? WMP is fine.

[manic torrent]

So, fundamentally, you don't care about freedom.

You only care about functionality

[hollow pulsar]

VLC has been able to consistently play everything I can think of just fine (never tried midi though). Can’t say the same for WMP.

VLC is my source of truth- if it can’t play it, the media file is probably corrupt.

yes, thats right. you are American

[cosmic coyote]

[manic torrent]

haha, no, not THAT sort of freedom 😉

[dreamy rose]

well yeah the freedom to do whatever you want is the exact same thing American patriotism throws around.

however when you apply that same idea to Open Source software it kinda sounds like Communism. you chip in and get stuff out of it, again if you so choose.

is this about video players

what is wrong with both of you why are you using windows media player and vlc in 2023

use mpv

[summer folio]

I use MPC-HC

[limpid hamlet]

Got my hands on one for a decent price

[dreamy rose]

Fuck that, Parole batter

[cosmic coyote]

parole what are you a prisoner

[dreamy rose]

hey dont ask me why its called that i think its odd too

[summer folio]

VLC does everything better than MPC-HC 4 me tho, except "Play next file in folder automaticly" & it has paus-lag.

[cosmic coyote]

no

[summer folio]

MPC-HC pauses/plays instantly
VLC has delay

[summer folio]

VLC gives higher video quality than MPC-HC for me rn, idk why

[dreamy rose]

is it Bluetooth bad?

[cosmic coyote]

ditch them both and just use MPV

[summer folio]

VLC also has ok 1,5x speed watching option,
while if I touch the increase speed buttons in MPC-HC, all the voices turns into chip-munks

[summer folio]

Maybe baby,

[summer folio]

Delay is big enough for me to get annoyed

I wanted to paus on that specific frame, not later.

[hollow pulsar]

Oh I definitely use other media players as well. But if they have trouble, I check the file with VLC.

[cosmic coyote]

LTT takes an L for media players

[hollow pulsar]

Many media players pause on B-frames.

Well, the solution that worked for me was to create a new User Account. Apparently the one I had was corrupted. Not a fun way to fix it because I had to do a lot to get everything setup the way I liked it, but at least it worked. Thank you for your help 🙂 according to this he made a new user account...

Do it better then

[unkempt widget]

what, so i'm gonna code a bot and lmg is gonna allow it on the server

[fierce moth]

Ngl linus should take a look at the wii u dev kits

[fluid ridge]

who cares if it's badly coded

[fierce moth]

Cool stuff ngl

[fluid ridge]

if it works it works

boeing literally built an entire model of plane that didnt work and it took 2 crashes and hundreds of lives before they decided to fix it

[fierce moth]

I just like dev kit stuff

[fluid ridge]

but everything before that point it worked so nobody cared

😎

[wind pulsar]

No, because it wouldn't be better anyway

At the very least the chances are extremely low

[unkempt widget]

ngl using a bot to moderate a server is a dumb idea

maybe with chatgpt, but false positives are huge

[full fossil]

Can easily get bot's tokens... Only bad side to bots

[unkempt widget]

Gotta sleep soon.

[wind pulsar]

So are the wiis from New Zealand btw

[fierce moth]

So they might have Oceania region locking

[wind pulsar]

Yeah, Europe would have '2' instead of '4' as a region number

[dreamy rose]

However the DSi has its own Aus/NZ Firmware

i mean what sense does that make? why didnt they just make seperate Oceania regions if they want to do that.

[polar fern]

Kanga/kiwi firmware

[fierce moth]

That's a pain, Oceania gamepads go for 100 aud

that belongs to Crapto. not Chromebooks

[cosmic coyote]

imagine flexing chromeos flex

[fierce moth]

Oh yeah, flex a fuckin 1000 dollar chromebook in a public school

[dreamy rose]

the idea of a Chromebook that has anything better than an Athlon is pointless

[fierce moth]

like if you wanted something light weight install linux then

That is pathetic

for what chromebooks are arm may not be a bad idea

[fierce moth]

Or just get a raspberry pi 400

The $250 usd chromebooks make sense to me. The $$$ ones don’t 🤷‍♂️

[modern pier]

i had an rpi2 with a janky wifi thing taped to the back of a 900p monitor over a hdmi to dvi connector. good times

[fierce moth]

I could see a large number of pi 400's being deployed with a school like os

has anyone been able to get their hands on a raspberry pi 4 model b lately

KDE 6 is gonna be good

[stuck stratus]

gnome looks pretty, but I agree it's a bit of a pain to use

KDE is much more functional

[fierce moth]

Xfce is a pretty good DE

[modern pier]

this server is civilized unlike twpoe

[fierce moth]

It's straight to the point

And it's pretty lightweight

[dreamy rose]

KDE is best. XFCE second best

[gilded plinth]

I use KDE just for Wobbly Windows.

[fierce moth]

Yeah

[dreamy rose]

Anyone tried Trinity?

[full fossil]

I bet my gnome looks thousands of times better

[modern pier]

is there any way to disable the beeper in xfce

[fierce moth]

I would use xfce in cases where every mb of ram matters like a low end machine

[dreamy rose]

wanna bet?

[fierce moth]

Or gpu passthrough

[gilded plinth]

Do you not like the beeper?

[full fossil]

In that case you might consider lxqt

[stuck stratus]

the beeper is the best part ;-;

[dreamy rose]

KDE and XFCE can be competitive with RAM Usage

[modern pier]

i don't hate it but i'd rather not when people are sleeping yk

[stuck stratus]

yeah they're all fairly lightweight

[fierce moth]

I get about 1.5gb of ram in use with kde and chrome, steam and some other things open

[full fossil]

Hmmm, third party must vote

[dreamy rose]

LXQT is Fine.

[cosmic coyote]

wtf

[full fossil]

It's much lighter

[dreamy rose]

yeah but its not as good as KDE and XFCE

[fierce moth]

I might try a tiling DE again

[full fossil]

That's why it's lighter xD

[dreamy rose]

i boot it up and it just feels. Meh. where as XFCE and KDE feel like homes

[modern pier]

i remember thinking "i'll never use a tiling de it's not functional" yet here i am

[stuck stratus]

considering discord will use more memory than every DE combined, memory usage isn't really an issue

[modern pier]

wm i should say

[full fossil]

Xfce is rat desktop

[fierce moth]

Tiling can be extremely handy

Like I3

[dreamy rose]

KDE is the Dragons and Wizards Desktop

[fierce moth]

[wanton glade]

I'm about to buy the basilisk v3, y'all think it's good ?

[paper galleon]

Superlight

G pro w is just so old now also double click stuff

There’s also a ton of clones that are better and cheaper than the superlight but then they might have qc issues

[wanton glade]

basilisk v3 is a good mouse

[paper galleon]

I’d def take it over like the g502 but it’s heavy and not for everyone

[wanton glade]

Definitely for me

alr thx man

[unkempt widget]

ew razer

fuck razer, all my homies hate razer

[wanton glade]

based

you hate it but you never tried it

[unkempt widget]

i had one of their headsets

[wanton glade]

they make good mice, believe it or not

[unkempt widget]

it was really bad

and also razer's recent stuff have been quite bad

[wanton glade]

yeah their headsets are fucking garbage

but mice are fine

[unkempt widget]

i heard someone who broke 2 razer mice in 3 days

[wanton glade]

sounds like skill issue to me

which model ?

[unkempt widget]

holy shit i just got an oled display

oh my god the perfect blacks

they're so good, i've been missing out for too long

[wanton glade]

the hell ?

[unkempt widget]

an oled display

[wanton glade]

ik, but why saying that so randomly ?

[unkempt widget]

i just got one

it's so good i can't believe i have been missing out for so long

[wanton glade]

oh ok

I think I'll get a VA monitor

good contrast

[unkempt widget]

ips>va>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>tn

[wanton glade]

msi make good cheap monitors

[unkempt widget]

there's a scepter monitor that's 200 bucks

it's 1440p and 165hz

[wanton glade]

Nope. IPS = gaming. VA = Productivity, gaming, movies, anything

[wanton glade]

[unkempt widget]

ips is more of a productivity thing

[wanton glade]

not really

hi

[past egret]

discord bought a gas stove!?!?!!

[wanton glade]

yeah man, it's super useful

for gaslighting

[unkempt widget]

nvm @wind pulsar you're right, a va contrast ratio is higher

[wanton glade]

get skill issued bro

told you

[unkempt widget]

but still, an oled's contrast ratio is 100,000:1 while va is 3000:1

[wanton glade]

Yeah I know

[unkempt widget]

i think ips still has better color reproduction

[wanton glade]

but more expensive 💀

[wanton glade]

alr whatevs

I'm getting both anyways

[unkempt widget]

the 200 dollar one is the cheapest one i found for the performance (120+hz and 1440p)

that isn't tn

[wanton glade]

yah it's good

I'll prolly buy it

[timid meadow]

Im making a photo screen plushie. Should i use this? Or a Snorlax?

[wary summit]

[timid meadow]

Idc where its coming from both are on ebay and both will get additional stuffing anyway

Imma cut a hole in one of em teletubbies style and throw a screen in it

[neon mesa]

Every day i keep appreciating personal cloud gaming more and more

Me with my shitty $300 laptop blasting through rt ultra in CP2077 with fans not sounding like a jet and actually working without plug in

While my friend's gaming laptop will sound like an F22 blasting through RT Medium

And at the same time the laptop being more expensive

Yeahhh cloud relies on the internet but it is a better experience so far

[wanton glade]

ikr

I'm streaming genshin from my gaming pc. I'm playing ultra from a celeron 4gb ram laptop

[mental oxide]
