​anyone wanna buy legion 7 laptop with 3070 and amd cpu

[golden talon]

Macbooks are way better than windows ultrabooks its not even close tbh

[fluid ridge]

you shouldnt be playing games on a laptop in the first place

[fluid ridge]

the only "con" is the price

[wary summit]

why not

[unkempt widget]

which is my point, that's unfair

[golden talon]

Nah theyre priced pretty nicely too

[smoky ocean]

better at what?

[wary summit]

When you have an RX6700 and a R7 6800X

[fluid ridge]

same reason you dont take the corolla to the Nuremberg

[wary summit]

IN A LAPTOP

[golden talon]

Literally everything productivity related

[wary summit]

you gotta play some games

[smoky ocean]

"Productivity"

[golden talon]

Yes

[sonic barn]

@unkempt widget the pay gap isn't real, however the gap in wealth is. That is due to being taught what jobs are gendered. Healthcare was not always mostly woman making up the field

[wary summit]

there we go

[fluid ridge]

relative to windows ultrabooks i mean

[smoky ocean]

you are only comparing to ultrabooks?

[golden talon]

Yes macbooks are priced much better than windows ultrabooks

[eager venture]

yea but to be able to have over 50% of voters in the most powerful country in the world vote for a woman says something about the point that they don't hate woman

[unkempt widget]

the pay gap is real wdym

[golden talon]

Obviously lmao thats what they compete against

[eager venture]

sure a woman was voted for gov but thats a smaller group

[fluid ridge]

perhaps proportionally (price to performance) sure, i mean like the absolute cost

[unkempt widget]

it's bloody not the same thing

[fluid ridge]

not everyone has 4k to drop on a laptop

[smoky ocean]

yeah but i can get a different laptop that isnt an ultrbook that will run circles around a mac on everything

[unkempt widget]

most people in england supported queen victoria

[fluid ridge]

trolling

[smoky ocean]

not really. i hate apple

[golden talon]

And its a piece of shit with terrible battery life, mediocre build quality, fat as fuck chassis, bad screen, loud as fuck, heavy as hell. etc.

[unkempt widget]

but back then traditionally it was seen as "women should take care of family while men find jobs"

[eager venture]

so ur saying that someone who thinks woman are less than a man vote for a woman over a man?

[wary summit]

APPLE FAN BOY ALERT!!!

[fluid ridge]

Battery life, efficiency, power to performance, video editing, etc. all destroy on Mac

macbooks walk all over windows laptops

[unkempt widget]

it wasn't that all men > all women
people back then do admit that some women > some men and vice versa

[eager venture]

i lean left so i vote for the left

[golden talon]

I use apple and windows and android products lol

[eager venture]

people vote for who they think are more right

[fluid ridge]

the true chad votes for nobody and thinks for himself 😎

[smoky ocean]

oh you want thin. you got me there. they do good for being so small. but only in one lane.

[fluid ridge]

Battery life, efficiency, power to performance, video editing, etc. all destroy on Mac

[fluid ridge]

derlete that picture

[wary summit]

no

[unkempt widget]

0% cpu usage for me

[wary summit]

why

[fluid ridge]

fuck you

you blocked my message

[wary summit]

L

[eager venture]

thats how i leaned left. well more like independent leftest

[fluid ridge]

ratio

[golden talon]

Nope lol macbooks have the best battery life out of any laptop besides those piece of crap chromebooks which are hardly considered laptops

[fluid ridge]

macbooks have god tier performance with chromebook battery life

[golden talon]

And the Airs are also fanless

[fluid ridge]

if not better 😎

[smoky ocean]

i read chromebook and threw up in my mouth a little

[golden talon]

Based

[smoky ocean]

my fingers burned typing that

[wary summit]

why are you comparing to chomebooks

[smoky ocean]

why do you exist

[wary summit]

compare to Intel EVO

[golden talon]

Chromebooks compete with macbooks in the education space

[wary summit]

[golden talon]

Intel got fucked by both AMD and apple

Literally destroyed

[wary summit]

This is why i have an AMD laptop

[smoky ocean]

like what ambitions do you have for life? what is your drive?

[golden talon]

AMD still AT BEST manages half the battery life of the WORST apple macbook

[wary summit]

i make mine last 15 hours wdym

[golden talon]

i make mine last 36 hours

[unkempt widget]

what do those numbers mean

[wary summit]

at 2x the price

[eager venture]

what do these numbers mean

[sonic barn]

in what test?

[golden talon]

amount of time the battery lasted

[wary summit]

doing what

[smoky ocean]

i get about 1.5 hours on mine

[golden talon]

browsing test

[wary summit]

browsing what

[golden talon]

browsing the web bruh

[wary summit]

My laptop can last decades in hibernation mode

[unkempt widget]

photos of YOUR MOM

[golden talon]

any laptop can last decades in hibernation mode

[smoky ocean]

Asus rog strix scar 15

[wary summit]

Then thats dilluted data

[golden talon]

ur diluted data

[wary summit]

1hr batt fr

[smoky ocean]

yep

[golden talon]

they all underwent the exact same test

macbooks are just better

[smoky ocean]

well. if im gaming

[golden talon]

get a pc

[sonic barn]

depends on your use, m1 is not good for me since libraries aren't supported on arm

[smoky ocean]

it lasts about 10 hours just browsing and light youtube use

[sonic barn]

I use amd though

[golden talon]

M1 emulates x86 in literally everything except virtualization

so unless youre dealing with virtualization then I highly doubt it lol

[sonic barn]

python, c++, c, c# are just a few

I don't use swift

[golden talon]

I do python and C absolutely perfectly on my M2

[sonic barn]

or metal

[golden talon]

you dont need to, at all

[smoky ocean]

that was a good segway.

[wary summit]

Yes, but what if I DON'T LIKE MAC OS

[smoky ocean]

join a club

[golden talon]

L

mac os better than windows tbh

[smoky ocean]

and let me know what club i hate Mac aswell

[wary summit]

I don't like how you have to Sign in to download apps

[golden talon]

I dont like how you have to pay $130 for an operating system that has ads in it

[sonic barn]

I don't use it but I know back when the m1 was hyped it couldn't run c++ libraries and qt was messed up on it

[smoky ocean]

mac is not better than windows

windows can do everything mac can do. can you say the same for mac?

[golden talon]

Bullshit lmao Ive been doing C++ on mac for months

[wary summit]

you know mac os costs $300 right

[sonic barn]

standard arm library?

[golden talon]

Sure, it does it all inefficiently though

[ocean narwhal]

implying anyone pays for windows

[smoky ocean]

ads?

[sonic barn]

or you using core libraries outside of arm?

[wary summit]

can you run Cyberpunk at 90fps

[golden talon]

Rosetta Stone 2.0

[smoky ocean]

no. it can do productivity just as good as mac

[wary summit]

Can you run Valorant at 1000fps?

[smoky ocean]

and everything else better

[sonic barn]

that's their emulation rosetta 2

that does not do anything

[wary summit]

can you pirate apps easily from 1337?

[golden talon]

Definitely cap, and the battery life and power draw at the cores show that this is completely untrue

[wary summit]

i'm drawing 5w rn

[golden talon]

"Please use microsoft edge dont use google chrome/firefox/whatever other browser"

[sonic barn]

python has this issue too

[smoky ocean]

you said mac vs windows. thats different territory than macbook vs windows laptop

[wary summit]

bro edge is better than chrome

[sonic barn]

https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/695963

[wary summit]

FuCK SAFARI

[sonic barn]

can't run tensor flow stuff

[wary summit]

Also, my mum's M1 air doesn't support 4k out even with the Apple USBC dongle

[sonic barn]

although collab offers it for free

[golden talon]

because macOS is inherently more optimized for apple silicon, windows cannot be optimized specifically for each generation down to the core. x86 is over 3 decades old architecture and its vastly inefficient

[smoky ocean]

oh yeah they want you to use edge but there are no ads. just an attempt for them to ask you not to leave their garbage fire browser behind.

[golden talon]

That is an ad lmao

[wary summit]

bro, look at apple

[golden talon]

Show me where macOS has ads in the OS

[wary summit]

They ask you to set safari as default

they make you pay for finalcut

[golden talon]

In the same way you pay for adobe premier

[wary summit]

I don't

[golden talon]

i dont pay for finalcut either

[sonic barn]

you've only seen qualcomm low end offerings

[wary summit]

cuz i can download a ZIP, extract and run

[sonic barn]

they are in a partnership

I can run windows 11 on my pixel 3

[golden talon]

I think we can all agree Windows for ARM is an absolute garbage fire

[smoky ocean]

yes and no. mac is for apple silc, duh... x86 is old yes. tried, true, stable, and very competent in everything. it uses resources where they are needed and can be very efficient if set that way.

[wary summit]

I don't need to Sign in to an account to download apps

[sonic barn]

right now yes

[dim steppe]

app store

[sonic barn]

in a few years, no

[wary summit]

I don't need to be connected to the internet to setup my laptop

@golden talon App Store, explain

[golden talon]

Now imagine where Apple silicon will be in those "few years"

[wary summit]

dead

[golden talon]

Way, way ahead

[sonic barn]

stagnation

they are using bigger and bigger dies

[golden talon]

Such is the reality of a less efficient foundry process

[sonic barn]

they all use tsmc

amd, microsoft, qualcomm, intel, apple

[golden talon]

Yes, and we're nearing the physical limits of a node

[smoky ocean]

@golden talon windows will always be agnostic and ready to get any job done. mac is propritary and monothiestic and does not play well with others. so if you want the prestige that comes with it, good for you. stay in that one lane and when you get tired, the giga highway of windows will always welcome you back.

[sonic barn]

tsmc is the one with the tools and noticed it

intel has the biggest solution so far I think

[golden talon]

Closed minded way of looking at it lol. Mac is designed to get tasks done efficiently, focused and with much less energy than any comparable windows machine. Sure, you can buy a windows machine and do the same thing, but it requires more time and resources, both of which are valuable to many professionals

[sonic barn]

you mean video editing

coding on a mac is slower

can't imagine hosting something on one

[winged cedar]

.

[wary summit]

can soemone help me develop an android app

[sonic barn]

its gonna be emulating everything unless apple's native languages since they don't support open source at all

they ditched vulkan

[smoky ocean]

look the resource usage on the mac on anything else other than document writing and reading and you will see it is similar to a windows machine

[sonic barn]

c++ support in favor of swift

[golden talon]

I would def recommend watching this it explains it pretty well and its not just "speed" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIJjcPHJFCI

[sonic barn]

so windows has its own kernel and its better

[wary summit]

i wonder why im using windows rn

[sonic barn]

android studio 🤢

visual studio has better debugging

[smoky ocean]

yeah the vomit is strong with this one

[wary summit]

i know

[golden talon]

lolno the boosting algorithms is completely different between apple silicon and equivalent x86 CPUs especially in the mobile space

[wary summit]

first time writing Kotlin :P

[golden talon]

Full load under both

[wary summit]

Why zenbook

[golden talon]

6800U was the point

[sonic barn]

I've been trying to learn that but gave up since I realized you can just host jvm apps anyways in java for android

[golden talon]

Ryzen 7 6800U vs M2

[wary summit]

wait what you can??

[smoky ocean]

we are not talking mobile so dont bring that seperate debate in here. watching youtube on a mac uses the same resources as watching youtube on pc. do the comparision yourself

[wary summit]

Ill do the test, send the vid

Im on Ryzen 7 6800HS

[sonic barn]

yes?

[wary summit]

fuck

[sonic barn]

kotlin uses the jvm still

its just more features

[wary summit]

time to uninsall android studioooo

[golden talon]

Right I'll watch a youtube video on my Macbook air and itll draw the same amount of power as my gaming pc

[golden talon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0h8q6D0s74&t=288s

[wary summit]

Ahh m2

[sonic barn]

unless you're google you don't need to care about that

[wary summit]

thanks for telling m

e

[smoky ocean]

you realise watts are not that much right? you can get 1 million watts from a 9 volt battery. ie a taser.

[wide hinge]

Wonder much of a leap M3 will be

[sonic barn]

java is mostly legacy though, you can compile for arm and android platforms in visual studio by setting up a build config

[wary summit]

but java is so much easier

[smoky ocean]

i would like to see the voltage draw from the mac

[golden talon]

Watts is a measure of power, Volts times Amps, watts means everything when it comes to heat and electricity usage

[sonic barn]

c++ with qt is easier to work with

qt handles all the hard windows stuff

[smoky ocean]

yeah for heat. but not power draw

[sonic barn]

scaling works well

[golden talon]

Power draw is literally measured in watts dude the fuck you on

[orchid kestrel]

...

[sonic barn]

btw you can have a react app native

[smoky ocean]

dont ruin my fun

[orchid kestrel]

so you're being a troll?

[sonic barn]

its the easiest way to get a good modern looking app

[smoky ocean]

watts vs volts yeah the rest nah

[sonic barn]

qt is really good on kde plasma mobile

[smoky ocean]

but if its only using 1.5 volts on both would the power draw not be the same?

[golden talon]

no because they can draw different current

Volts times Amps = Power (Watts)

[smoky ocean]

they are both drawing 1.5 volts

[golden talon]

yes thats voltage

[smoky ocean]

they use the wattage in different areas

[sonic barn]

I see linux phones outside of android being the future for an os

[smoky ocean]

ie your efficiency

[golden talon]

Yes, AMD draws more Amps boosting up the power draw and becoming less efficient

[sonic barn]

kde plasma mobile, ubuntu touch

[smoky ocean]

they draw the same and use it in different areas

[wary summit]

@golden talon you lied

[golden talon]

explain

[smoky ocean]

me?

or that kk guy

[golden talon]

Lied lmao

[wary summit]

bro, You can't just compare Mac OS optimization to Windows

[golden talon]

The entire point of buying a mac is because of the optimization dumbass

[wary summit]

If the M2 ran the same OS as the x86 that would be the same test

[sonic barn]

word is legit 10 hours on my thinkpad

[golden talon]

Ok but they dont

[wary summit]

then why compare

[sonic barn]

48wh

[golden talon]

Because they compete in the productivity space

[wary summit]

[golden talon]

People cross shop dell XPS with macbooks

[wary summit]

Becuase Dell is Dell and IBM is IBM

games = no = me no mac

L

TAKE THAT L

[golden talon]

multi core only important if you're doing hardcore stress test workload levels stuff

[wary summit]

i am

[smoky ocean]

@golden talon ok no bullshit i was messing with you on the power stuff. you totally got me there yes. my real point is that windows will and can do it ALL, yes it uses more power to do so but you will get where you are going faster in a v8 than you would in a 4 cylinder. yes the v8 uses more gas, but it can rock climb and the 4banger cant.

[wary summit]

I literally am

[golden talon]

single core is way more important for browsing, gaming, and stuff like that

[smoky ocean]

gaming is 8core

[golden talon]

plus for $1500 you can get an M1 Pro macbook pro and itll cream all of those

[wary summit]

But i want windows

[golden talon]

then get windows

[smoky ocean]

i gotta go see what the woman bought on her shopping trip (its mandatory lol) ill BRB

[hollow pulsar]

As a person just joining the chat, I have no context.

[jaunty compass]

Not surprised tbh
The Geekbench scores I always see from apple stuff always strikes me as a little sus

[golden talon]

M2 Pro just came out too

[manic torrent]

What the shit

[wary summit]

L

[lapis zinc]

MacBook keyboard keycaps feel like cheap abs

[golden talon]

theyre also way faster than any windows laptops tho

[wary summit]

what?

[lapis zinc]

The right side of my space bar is already getting shiny

[wary summit]

Keyboard? nahh, its way too shallow

[golden talon]

I hit 201 WPM on my macbook

[manic torrent]

I mean, I don't currently run a Mac, but I have. Same shit really.

[wary summit]

it feels like im typing on a sheet of cheap plastic

[wary summit]

because your used to it

[golden talon]

Not really

I daily a mechanical keyboard with my gaming PC and a macbook air

[wary summit]

ugh

[golden talon]

I only get like 160-170 WPM on my mechanical keyboard with speed silvers

[hollow pulsar]

…and here I am wanting to get a Mac mini to just cache apps and downloads. Why? Because it’s cool. (My use case)

[jaunty compass]

Regardless of how fast the macs are in synthetic workloads, my stuff doesn't work on them so I'd never buy them

It would be a waste for me

[golden talon]

You can get the new ones for like only $500 with an M2 its insane

[wary summit]

Me, i just want to buy a raspberry pi and make a media server with it

[jaunty compass]

Hell. The stuff I use doesn't even work on Linux on x86_64
Let alone on arm on Mac os

[lapis zinc]

In my use case, I can do 50% of the things on a Mac that I do with Windows

I can't run virtual machines and obviously play some games

[hollow pulsar]

Right but like… is it caching app store downloads and iPhone updates?

[wary summit]

ahhh, it could

hackintosh

I had a hackintosh once

sold it for $400

[jaunty compass]

Most of the stuff I use my PC for I could use a mac, but there are enough things that I can't do make it completely impractical

[golden talon]

i forgot one very important advantage to macOS
ecosystem

[smoky ocean]

Back

[wary summit]

To me thats a drawback

[hollow pulsar]

I dunno. I haven’t been successful getting anything Apple-ish running without some kind of screen.

[lapis zinc]

The only ecosystem thing I use with my mac and iphone is imessage

[jaunty compass]

And I just have a personal distaste for iOS so there's no integration benefits for me at all; and I hate being tied to specific software anyway

[wary summit]

I'd rather be able to use my android phone with my windows laptop

[sonic barn]

One has an emulation layer, the other is native

[lapis zinc]

Otherwise, the ecosystem is completely useless

[hollow pulsar]

Even the guy who made a docker container made it so it requires a screen.

[smoky ocean]

that i can agree with you on. if you are in the eco then stay in the eco.

[manic torrent]

Doing what? And that doesn't necessarily mean anything

[orchid kestrel]

Actually Mac uses MacOS

[hollow pulsar]

The Apple caching service is actually super interesting to me.

[sonic barn]

You don't get support on one

[smoky ocean]

ios is only for their mobile line

[golden talon]

Yeah I have airpods, iPhone, mac and and my apple watch and it all works super seamlessly

[jaunty compass]

Okay and? I was saying I don't use iOS phones so I wouldn't have any integration benefits from switching to a fucking mac

[jaunty compass]

Refer to my previous statement

[sonic barn]

You can't use almost any gui c++ libraries

[orchid kestrel]

thought you were being mac-specific

[smoky ocean]

isame

[jaunty compass]

They brought up the point of the apple ecosystem and I said that for me that would be irrelevant since I use no other apple devices, ios nor Mac OS

💀

[smoky ocean]

that is true yes

[jaunty compass]

Personally

Fuck closed ecosystems and walled gardens

[hollow pulsar]

It registers the public IP with Apple and any Apple device looking to get updates or apps checks in with Apple, if Apple sees a cache server using the same public IP as the Apple device, the device is told the contact info for the local server.

[wary summit]

yes

[golden talon]

God bless them they make my life so much easier as a college student

[smoky ocean]

windows will play with ios and macos but ios and mac os wil not play with windows

[jaunty compass]

A device being a walled garden experience is enough for me to never buy from that company again

[cosmic coyote]

-Screams in android

[jaunty compass]

Not just that device from that company

[wary summit]

exactally

like the new home pod. its not even a bluetooh speaker

[hollow pulsar]

It allows Apple to still have some control over cache servers and still let folks host them.

[wary summit]

its a $250 Apple speaker, cant even connect my phone to it

fuck apple

[golden talon]

I dislike apple as a company but I like their products a lot

[hollow pulsar]

This is different from say, game companies that do everything they can to stop caching and such.

[sonic barn]

I wouldn't want to fuck an apple

[smoky ocean]

i hate apple. BUT, the airpods pro 2 are the best pods i have used. i love them, BUT only them.

[jaunty compass]

PS5 and Xbox series are just PCS but they don't let you do anything but game on them or use their limited web browsers and apps

I'm not fucking buying one

[wary summit]

wanna talk about the apple mouse?

[full fossil]

@night heron gastrail sucks

[golden talon]

Same I love my APP 2

[jaunty compass]

Walled garden devices are basically the thing I hate the most from any tech company

[golden talon]

The case upgrade is mindboggling good

[smoky ocean]

yeah?

[wary summit]

Apple mouse

[smoky ocean]

will have to look at it

[golden talon]

I still wouldnt recommend it if you have an android

[hollow pulsar]

The magic mouse wasn’t bad for me at all. But the undercarriage charge port was just… STUPID beyond all reason.

[golden talon]

But the actual earphones themselves are bar none the most convenient piece of technology ive ever bought

[smoky ocean]

i use my pods with an android yes. and i have all the functionality as you on an iphone

[thin widget]

Do you guys think its worthwhile getting a 7900xt as an upgrade to my 3070

[wary summit]

im talking exactally about the charging port

[sonic barn]

It's a feature

[wary summit]

same CA-POD

[smoky ocean]

yes i have to use a third party app but i can still do everything

yep

[golden talon]

Ah okay then. Idk Im clumsy and lose my stuff often to the spatial U1 chip is highly useful to me and finding it when its lost etc.

[jaunty compass]

A 3070 is quite fast, are you sure you need an upgrade?

[golden talon]

I didnt know android had that functionality

[wary summit]

i can do that on my android belive it or not

[golden talon]

Thats nice

[thin widget]

I struggle to run cyberpunk at 1440p high settings

[thin widget]

1080p

[smoky ocean]

honestly i cant say anything bad about the pods at all. they are great and i would recommend them to anyone

[jaunty compass]

Cyberpunk is the new crysis

[thin widget]

im at 1440p

[golden talon]

without RT and DLSS on

with RT it dropped below 60 fps

[hollow pulsar]

Cyber crysis

[jaunty compass]

Have you considered lowering the settings, honestly?

[thin widget]

RT without dlss I get 11fps.

[wary summit]

send

[cosmic coyote]

Crysis > Cyberpunk

[jaunty compass]

Instead of spending $1k for one game

[sonic barn]

Imagine being me with a 2070s and all I play is CSGO at low settings 144hz capped and 1080p

who signaled me

[cosmic coyote]

Now you know why consoles exist

[thin widget]

I have a suspicion it will run like crap on the 3070

[jaunty compass]

I feel bad for you dude

[hollow pulsar]

I’m still on Radeon VII- you know, the top-tier GPU AMD replaced 3 months later.

Fallout 3? Really?

[thin widget]

whats wrong with fallout 3?

[sonic barn]

I also liked the elder scrolls online. Early days was so fun in Cyrodiil

[jaunty compass]

Fallout 4 and Skyrim I can understand I guess if you're a certain type of gamer

But fallout 3? Really?

[hollow pulsar]

How so?

[jaunty compass]

Have you never played fallout 1 2 or new Vegas?

[thin widget]

Fallout 3 is more replayable than fnv

[wary summit]

but is your Mac this powerful?

[jaunty compass]

That's just objectively not true

[sonic barn]

Just look at their own predictions

I listed my top 3 Bethesda games not yours

Fallout New Vegas has way more branches and options that make it more fun to replay

I don't like Minecraft for instance

I like terraria

[hollow pulsar]

I quite enjoyed PSO2. Anyone know what I’m talking about?

[hollow pulsar]

Subjective you mean?

[thin widget]

I have a photographic memory, the storylines in fnv feel repetitive once you try to do them again. Fallout 3 has the more interesting world that makes it better to explore. I just like how fallout 3 feels

[jaunty compass]

Phantasy Star online 2? Nice

[jaunty compass]

Lmao sure buddy

Oh gotchya. 🙂

That's why I can type fast

[thin widget]

If I sell my CPU motherboard and GPU I can upgrade my system for around $1300 and get double the performance in most games.

Oh, yea, Apple's iCloud is stored on Google servers

[hollow pulsar]

Probably a good deal for both companies.

[jaunty compass]

i think i know what it is

[jaunty compass]

[hollow pulsar]

Anywhosls… I played so much PSO2 on the gamecube. Logged well over 2,000 hours.

[undone lava]

are there any good laptop stands i could buy to add desktop fans to it or would i need to make my own?

was watching jarrod's new video on using a tower cooler to cool a laptop and he mentioned a fan controller noctua makes, and it got me wondering if i could make a laptop stand with it

[full fossil]

yeah

[undone lava]

to which?

[manic torrent]

There are, but most I have seen leave a lot to be desired. I imagine what you are looking for exists but is expensive. I think you could make something really nice either from scratch or with a cheaper stand as a base.

[full fossil]

good point

[undone lava]

making would take time but maybe less money

buying a premade one would take no effort but would not be cost effective i think?

and would probably be a hassle to mount a fan to?

so in the end it would probably be make my own unless i can somehow drill holes for screws?

the problem with making one myself is that im the least creative person alive

i mean look at my username

1. I had a working controller since it feels more smoother like that
2. It wasn't so buggy

I'm currently trying to fix my xbox elite controller

[dull violet]

Its not really about the operating system tbh

[dreamy rose]

no it isnt.

[long briar]

also 3060 should not exist

[dreamy rose]

the 1630 shouldnt exist.

[dull violet]

The visuals are so good

[dull violet]

Exactly

[long briar]

plenty of cards shouldn't exist

[dreamy rose]

MacOS is fucking ugly.

[long briar]

3060 being one of them

[dull violet]

The 1650 should not have existed

[long briar]

no 1650 is fine

FWIW as a 75w low power card

doesn't need external power

[dull violet]

Bro if u have really good ddr5 thats like 6000mhz radeon 680m is faster

Then the 1650

[full fossil]

Hey dont hate

[dreamy rose]

4090 laptop. 1800 dollars for a Desktop 4080 and brings the price over 3 grand

[dull violet]

Just let me enjoy my os

i tell the truth

[dull violet]

It took like 3 days for me to do this

[long briar]

Phrasing, I did not understand your sentence...

[long briar]

That sounds like an opinion though sooo

[dull violet]

U can have your own opinion just dont hate on the grind

[long briar]

it also costs a fuckton more

[wispy marsh]

1. You have a pcie riser cable
2. The riser cable bends
3. You bend it into a sushi roll

[dull violet]

[long briar]

the point of 1650 is if you're on a tight budget and have an old optiplex or sth with a 250w psu

[wispy marsh]

4. Tamagoyaki

[long briar]

you can toss sth in that can game esports like valorant just fine

[dreamy rose]

the Laptop 4090 is 1800 dollars, only as good as a 4080 Desktop card, and will raise the laptop to near or over 3000 dollars in price.

[long briar]

Laptops are a lot harder to engineer

[dull violet]

How tf do they already have a laptop 4090

[dreamy rose]

cashgrab

[long briar]

to cram a desktop 4080 in sth you can bring anywhere is pretty impressive already

[dull violet]

That thing is like bigger then some laptops honestly

[long briar]

laptop prices rise exponentially due to how hard it is to engineer the thermals well

[dreamy rose]

its gonna be worse cause its both heat and power restricted. but yeah that much performance is pretty good. BUT. the 700 dollar hike can get fucked.

[dull violet]

fire hazard

[dreamy rose]

nothing justifies it

[long briar]

you have a better alternative?

that's what justifies it.

[dull violet]

it would burn your legs

[long briar]

there's nothing like it, and you can't make it better for cheaper.

Almost nobody can.

[dreamy rose]

AMD can make a high end GPU that's competitive for less money. they did it with 6800M.

[long briar]

Competitive means the same?

[dreamy rose]

it was hundreds cheaper

[long briar]

so...?

[full fossil]

guys is Anthony Virgin

[dreamy rose]

they can get more people to buy. because the cards are better value.

[long briar]

6800m is roughly a 2070 mobile

that's... not a 4080

[finite cloud]

no hes Anthony Young

[long briar]

value is the last thing someone buying a 40 series card should care abt lmfao

you're saying like

[dreamy rose]

fucking bullshit,

[dull violet]

transparency glitches on hackintosh ☺️ guess thats why high sierra drivers dont work so good on big sur

[long briar]

"man this F1 car costs 13 million and my Porsche GT3rs for 180k can keep up, F1 is a ripoff if they sold it for cheaper more people would buy it"

Stupidest thing I ever done was a bought a 3080 and I’ve broke pins

Because I was way too excited and I dropped it

but a 3070 mobile is still nowhere near a 4080 desktop

so my point still stands, you're comparing apples to oranges

[polar fern]

Found a rare photo of John Mastadon.

[full fossil]

Bro you have no knowledge

[dreamy rose]

i never said the 6800M was competing with the 4090. i said it was competitive with the 3080.

[wary summit]

But can your laptop open 500 tabs?

[long briar]

"only as good as a 4080 desktop card"

[full fossil]

Let’s just keep it a buck the 4090 is just way too overpriced

[long briar]

Windows cant

[full fossil]

Hey first step if you have the money to pay for it

[dreamy rose]

it was similar. got smashed a bit yes. but otherwise it was a Competitive GPU for like 3-400 dollars less

listen to what i am Saying. the 3080 LAPTOP was hundreds MORE than the 6800M, was beat by the 6800M in VALUE. maybe performance wasn't exactly on par but it was BETTER VALUE.

as i was saying. AMD CAN COMPETE WITH THIS. they just need to make a high end mobile GPU.

firefox lets you hold the control + t button lol

[polar fern]

Like booomark it & close

[long briar]

I said almost nobody can for a reason. AMD can definitely make sth that competes, but the price of the engineering to make it possible makes it kind of unreasonable

[dreamy rose]

they will make a Card less expensive but performant enough to be a Good value that more people will pick up. we wont be left with a 7700M at the top this gen

[dull violet]

thing probably used like 8mb of ram when chrome takes like 3 gb up with like 4 tabs

[long briar]

Value was never the concern for a fucking 4090 lmfao

it used 2 gigs but in fairness non of them loaded

legit what i did

to say a 4090 has much worse value than a midrange 6800m... wow great observation

[unkempt widget]

isn't it gddr3 when other cards of the same generation gddr5?

[wary summit]

But chromium

[long briar]

there was two, gddr5 which was okayish and ddr4 which was dogshit

[dreamy rose]

AMD do the 6500M, its less powerful than the 3050 mobile but it beats the 1650.

[dull violet]

no its either gddr5 or ddr4 not gddr4 i mean actual ddr4

oh gddr4 not 5

[long briar]

anyways I'mma head out cya

why does firefox let you do this?

gddr4

one is lower latency but slightly more random error which is acceptable for graphics

[long briar]

the other is higher latency but much lower error rate

It takes a pretty talented engineering team to make something that works incredibly well, but also looks as good as that card does

[wary summit]

AMD + AMD > Intel + Nvidia change my mind

[dreamy rose]

they made a Zenbook with a 6900HX, 32GB of RAM, 1TB of storage, and a RTX 3050? WHO PUTS THE HIGH END CPU WITH THE SHIT GPU?

[polar fern]

Not enough power

[dreamy rose]

they can do much more when they are all AMD components.

Okay, I am going to keep watching this

[dreamy rose]

good luck getting as good an experience with Intel/Nvidia

yee

i saw it in store it is so good, glass trackpad aswell

[dreamy rose]

not the 5000 series you want the 7000 one

[wary summit]

it came out?

this is 7000

[unkempt widget]

pretty sure that's an option

[dreamy rose]

it'll probably be out soon. but you def want the iGPU

[wary summit]

now i want it over the G14

it looks so much sexier

[unkempt widget]

it's also oled

[wary summit]

Ehh

[dreamy rose]

if they have a GPU that would be amazing but if not the AMD is required

[wary summit]

60hz poop

[wary summit]

AMD APGU > RX550

oh its a 90hz panel

if you get it, dont drive it at 2.8k i'd say 1080p is decent

[dreamy rose]

i really need a USB keyboard now

[wary summit]

lol can't get into bios

[dreamy rose]

now my replacable keyboard refuses to sit in its spot and pops out

i like the idea but this is a drawback

[wary summit]

what laptop?

Dell M2010?

[dreamy rose]

Acer Travelmate 5760G

[wary summit]

acer boo

[dreamy rose]

i've actually only even owned Acers by pure coincidence

my first was an Aspire ES1 411, then i got this Travelmate from the school for 80 dollars.

its functional but its pretty much a junker. should retire the shell for a life as a kinda shitty all in one

just need a Keyboard

[stable reef]

On a random note, is it safe to hold your poo for a week. I was dragged to a place where the toilet situation is not ideal

[wary summit]

nice to know

[unkempt widget]

no oled though

nvm it is

nvm it isn't

[unkempt widget]

no

[crystal mirage]

have it in a plastic bag and put the plastic bag into a trash can

[dreamy rose]

hmm. our power shut off. only to the bedroom half the house. we culdnt trace back to what it was but i have suspicion of my laptop. does it sound like its possible?

[crystal mirage]

did a breaker switch off?

[dreamy rose]

our fuses were fine. this is a concrete house from the 70s so AFAIK my stepdads idea was to add another wire to the Bedroom fuse and fiddle around until it worked.

[crystal mirage]

first of all I am not an electrician but if a breaker/fuse didn't turn off then there is probably something wrong with either the plug you are plugging into or then the wiring in the walls.

[dreamy rose]

i first noticed that the TV i'm using shut off. but it turned back on. then everything else went down 30 seconds later

[crystal mirage]

could also be city power not working

but quite a low chance of that being the case

because probably you wouldn't be the only one having problems then

[dreamy rose]

i dont know if its just us. i can check SM

so nothing about it on FB. thats where most ppl would bitch

[unkempt widget]

that happened to me lmao

[wary summit]

[summer folio]

"FreeDOS only supports 802.11b cards & WEP" allegedly? 🤔

[manic torrent]

...it's a single core wtf do you want.

[summer folio]

True true, so full Linux is not as light weight as they want you to believe then?

Windows XP better?

[rigid moon]

yea with extra iron

[manic torrent]

.... Yes. DOS is more lightweight than Linux.

[summer folio]

Roger roger! Windows XP it is then
