Then they can deal with it.

[golden talon]

@night heron va > ips right

display god

[trim robin]

soon ™️

[polar fern]

Variable a?

[golden talon]

idek

[velvet marsh]

Vertical alignment

[golden talon]

I just randomly bought a monitor on a whim from some dude

[timid meadow]

Afaik yes google says I'm wrong

[golden talon]

idk if i got a good deal or if i got ripped off

[ebon wolf]

Hi chat

[golden talon]

its a 1440p 144hz samsung VA monitor 27" i got it for $80

[polar fern]

IPS has better horiz viewing but that’s at the expense of stuff usually

[velvet marsh]

That’s a good deal

[golden talon]

oh sick

[polar fern]

Is it used?

Or new?

[eager venture]

Used or not thats a steal if u need a monitor

[golden talon]

its used

it had some dust on it so it doesnt look like it was used much if at all

[polar fern]

Did you clean the dust out of it?

[golden talon]

yeah i did

it looks pretty nice

[velvet marsh]

But in most monitor panels ips>va

[golden talon]

I thought VA had better stuff generally idk tho

[lament willow]

what does wan stand for

[golden talon]

i just bought it cuz good resolution and good refresh rate

[lament willow]

weekly analysis network?

[polar fern]

you should see the inside of some monitors like at train stations and stuff. They’re basically completely covered in dust inside It’s really gross

[velvet marsh]

Yeah at that price it’s a great deal

[full fossil]

weird astute nerds

[night heron]

in theory yes but with the state of the monitor market right now IPS is a safer recommendation

[timid meadow]

Weekly Analysis of News i believe

[golden talon]

rip

[polar fern]

Weekly analysis and news

[golden talon]

maybe i should sell this and get an IPS monitor then

[night heron]

if u like it who cares

[polar fern]

It fine

Ya.

[golden talon]

what makes ips "safer" tho

[night heron]

most va monitors have slow pixel response time

[velvet marsh]

You’re probably looking at $350 for an ips 1440p 144+

[golden talon]

this one advertises 4.8 ms

[night heron]

but better black levels and color

[lament willow]

time to get an optiplex

[golden talon]

is VA more expensive generally?

[polar fern]

Yeah my Msi optix IPS is 1ms

[night heron]

1ms advertised not actually 1ms

[polar fern]

I know

[velvet marsh]

Most monitor VA panels are lower end VA panels, so not usually

[polar fern]

It’s more like 3.

[golden talon]

ive also got an IPS 165hz 1080p pos from MSI

willing to sacrifice some hz for the 1440p res

[velvet marsh]

My monitor has >1ms response 😄

[night heron]

displays are too complicated and variable to make generalizations about a panel type

[polar fern]

I got the 24 inch 1080p 144 hz model x2

[golden talon]

this is pretty funny for me

my 1080p panel costs more than my 1440p

[lament willow]

what cpu should be minimum for a optiplex

[night heron]

im back on windows 10

tried windows 11 for a few days and decided i dont like it

[polar fern]

I only have an igpu so 1440 would probably tax it a bit too much

1080p is fine

1440x920 best res under 30 inch by the way

I think they forgot about wan show

[placid mauve]

Maybe they were delayed

[trim robin]

the stream has theacly stared just nothing yet

[winter spindle]

Oops

[polar fern]

Sponsor pulled out? I bet it’s ifixit

[wintry dagger]

why do you think its ifixit?

[placid mauve]

They found out about the screwdriver

[polar fern]

That’s my guess

[placid mauve]

Oh I thought you were making a joke or something

[trim robin]

but ifix it has precien bits

[manic torrent]

Huzzah. It's a crane pivot

[winter spindle]

Ohio screwdriver

[wintry dagger]

dudes stuck in 2022

[polar fern]

No because they’re clearly going to do a precision set/bits

[wintry dagger]

2023 is already 1/6th of the way done

[winter spindle]

I want to get the screwdriver but I only use a screwdriver like once a year

[trim robin]

oh god...

[polar fern]

2023 has succ way more than 2022 so far

[trim robin]

but thye havent yet. even then thats not any reaserion to drop or pull out

[wintry dagger]

I was gonna buy it but an ifixit toolkit is cheaper and comes with more bits/tools

[winter spindle]

Same

[wintry dagger]

plus the ifixit toolkit comes with a case

and more bits

[winter spindle]

It’s fine

Metroid prime remaster is good news

[dreamy rose]

like a normal person

[polar fern]

Pft fine? Ask Turkey & Syria

💔

[wintry dagger]

ive already had 4 mental breakdowns and an identity crisis so considering thats more than the whole of 2022 id say this year is gonna suck

[polar fern]

Mhm

[winter spindle]

Oh

[wintry dagger]

I like win 11 only bc it has smooth animations and its pretty

[winter spindle]

I forgot about that

[dreamy rose]

what if. Half life 3?

[winter spindle]

That would be cool

[wintry dagger]

never gonna happen

[winter spindle]

Best year ever if it happens

[winter spindle]

It’s probably going to happen

In 10 years

[polar fern]

Things could be a lot better than they are and I am measuring this against both 2022 and also the two previous years

[dreamy rose]

if it comes alongside Portal 3 then it will be the best year in gaming PERIOD

[placid mauve]

[wintry dagger]

I hope p3 is gonna come out soon but yk valve they're too busy working on releasing steam updates 3 months late

[polar fern]

Mmm dinner

[wintry dagger]

maybe they can make portal 2 rtx that runs on not god-tier hardware

pfft NEVER!

[winter spindle]

Tf3

And I’m not talking about titanfall

[placid mauve]

They gave the game “Deliver Us the Moon” rtx capabilities

[winter spindle]

Moon rtx

[eager venture]

On twitch or YouTube there’s nothing on YouTube

[dreamy rose]

hell no. not Nvidia ruining another classic game. AMD should do it because AMD is fair with support.

[timid meadow]

Twitch and Floatplane

YouTube starts soon

[winter spindle]

Floatplane bruh

[wintry dagger]

nvidia didnt ruin the game- they did a great job imo its just that it only runs on a 4090

[trim robin]

twitch and FP no youtube yet as theres preshow

[winter spindle]

I have a 3060 I think it will run like star citizen

[wintry dagger]

if it ran above 60fps low settings on my 3070 it'd be good tho

[trim robin]

aslo looks like chat is saying linus is 5 min away

[dreamy rose]

Try Portal RTX on Radeon. you'll know EXACTLY what i mean

[winter spindle]

3060 laptop

[dreamy rose]

Unplayable on Radeon. because Nvidia cant give a shit

[wintry dagger]

60fps 1080p LOWEST settings with dlss on performance

[trim robin]

sounds playable

[wintry dagger]

mhm yeah

a 500 dollar gpu should be able to run ANY game at lowest above 150 fps

[winter spindle]

It is playable however you are better off playing the original portal cranked up to max

[wintry dagger]

original cranked to max I get like 600fps lmao

[dreamy rose]

i get like 50s

[wintry dagger]

portal 2 is stunning for a game that old tbh

[winter spindle]

I only get like 270

[dreamy rose]

fucking Fermi has a Massive meltdown whenever you do aything with it

[winter spindle]

On 3060 laptop

[dreamy rose]

Half Life 2 is 18. and look at it

[full fossil]

is it normal that my cpu is 58 60 on idle

[winter spindle]

Half life 2 is the best game

[winter spindle]

5860 degrees is pretty severe yes

I’m just joking

[dreamy rose]

i think you Misspelt your name

[graceful burrow]

Bit high for idle

[winter spindle]

I have no idea sorry

[full fossil]

you are the first one to notice that

[dreamy rose]

oh really?

[full fossil]

yeah

[dreamy rose]

bruh.

[full fossil]

actually Phantom was already used

so i added this sneaky H

[winter spindle]

Solid snake better

[full fossil]

or less sneaky nowadays

[full fossil]

thats where i got the name from lol

[winter spindle]

👍

[full fossil]

phantom pain is one of my favorite games

[winter spindle]

Same for me

[dreamy rose]

i dont remember discord refusing to give you a name that someone else has taken. cause the tag is different anyway.

[full fossil]

its not discord actually

this is the name i use in everything

i think league of legends didnt allow me to use phantom

[dreamy rose]

so where was it taken?

oh. league.

[full fossil]

after that i used phanthom in everything

[graceful burrow]

You know it's spelt phantom right

[full fossil]

since i have terrible memory i cant remember where to add or take H lol

[full fossil]

yes lol

[winter spindle]

[graceful burrow]

Hey man you never know

[dreamy rose]

why not take "AcousticChild" as a Bckup?

[full fossil]

what is that

[dreamy rose]

i guess that ones up for grabs for anyone who wants it

[winter spindle]

No

[wintry dagger]

omg I read that as "AutisticChild"

[polar fern]

Luke wholesome hour

[full fossil]

my cpu is 5700x and i have stock wraith cooler

[polar fern]

Anything under 85°C sustained is fine.

[manic torrent]

That is absolutely normal

[polar fern]

Mhm

[full fossil]

well my 1600 was a lot cooler

[manic torrent]

My 5700x runs slightly cooler typically, but boosts to 4.85ghz

[full fossil]

i ran 55 60 while maxing out forza

[manic torrent]

It was a lot slower too 🙂

[full fossil]

true

[polar fern]

Bbl

[full fossil]

i gained heavy performance boost

[jaunty compass]

i beat bioshock remastered
it was pretty good

[full fossil]

anyone playing hogwarts legacy

[polar fern]

Movie night with my girlfriend woop

[slow bone]

LTT lost Dbrand?

[polar fern]

Dunno

Bbl

[winter spindle]

Game looks mid

Metroid prime remaster worth my time instead

[full fossil]

i think its more then mid

its good nothing too groundbreaking

[jaunty compass]

it's just prime with better graphics and controls

so yes, it is

[dreamy rose]

kinda looks like a Potter themes GTA 4 reskin to me

[jaunty compass]

I didn't buy the game since it has denuvo tbh

[dreamy rose]

Eww anticheat

[jaunty compass]

anti-tamper, actually

[full fossil]

runs fine to me tho i heard other people are having major issues

[jaunty compass]

denuvo drm usually makes game run like shit

[winter spindle]

Harry Potter has that?

[jaunty compass]

If a game has it, i don't buy it

yep, it does

[dreamy rose]

eww it hooks into your OS for nothing

[full fossil]

honestly i was surprised how good the game was i had lower expectations

[winter spindle]

What does it do

[full fossil]

protects the game from being cracked

by famous or infamous crack scenes

[winter spindle]

Ok

[dreamy rose]

its always gonna be cracked.

[full fossil]

yeah in 100+ days

[fossil frost]

dynamically profiles your system for your exact cpu make, model, stepping, factory revision... motherboard, ram... all sorts... then builds some of the code remotely, and ships that to you, encrypted, over the air, and its different every time

[jaunty compass]

it's basically an anti-tamper to stop you from modding the game or pirating the game

however, it usually comes with heavy performance hits and makes games run a lot worse

[dreamy rose]

no matter what it is its gonna get cracked

[fossil frost]

and there are games that are 2+ years old now that havnt been cracked

[winter spindle]

Damn

[full fossil]

does forspoken have the denuvo

[jaunty compass]

yeah but it's not a good game lol

[winter spindle]

Why do you want forspoken

[full fossil]

just to parkour around the world

[winter spindle]

Get spider man 2 for ps2 instead

[fossil frost]

different person to you... enjoys different things to you

[full fossil]

that looked fun

[jaunty compass]

If a game has denuvo, i just don't buy it

[dreamy rose]

never said immediately. Eventually.

[jaunty compass]

because i'm not going to pay for an experience that I know will be terrible

I have never seen a single game with denuvo perform properly at launch

[full fossil]

to my terrible memory ac origins had denuvo right

[dreamy rose]

i refuse to play a game with an AC like EAC or Denuvo or whatever.

EAC fucking STINKS.

[jaunty compass]

Kernel level anticheat is a dealbreaker for me too

it's basically a ring 0 backdoor waiting to happen

[full fossil]

tbh lot of games use them

[fossil frost]

the scene has dwindling talent, most of them work for denuvo now... and anybody who has any sort of minor talent in the scene, gets snapped up by a security researcher ASAP... only the easy low hanging fruit gets cracked now, anything that takes effort, nobody bothers

[full fossil]

fallen order used one right

[winter spindle]

EAC is ok

[jaunty compass]

the instant one of those anticheats gets compromised everyone who plays that game are fucked

[winter spindle]

Not good but ok

Battleye isn’t much better

[jaunty compass]

it's a security nightmare waiting to happen

they all are

[full fossil]

tbh they are doing quite a job

[winter spindle]

VAC 💀

[dreamy rose]

Factually Incorrect

[dreamy rose]

at least you can live with VAC

[jaunty compass]

they're trying to add denuvo to the switch now, too

which is really stupid

[dreamy rose]

Console Anticheat does nothing.

[jaunty compass]

it's not anticheat

[winter spindle]

Most people have no idea how to cheat on console though

[jaunty compass]

they're trying to add antipiracy to switch games to keep them from being emulated

[fossil frost]

its a good thing denuvo has nothing to do with cheating then isnt it

denuvo is about stopping, or at least, slowing down, piracy

[winter spindle]

They have a point though

[full fossil]

ps4 can be chipped ps5 im yet to hear someone chipped it

[dreamy rose]

they are all the same shit that hides in your Kernel and slows it all down

[jaunty compass]

no they don't, i'm well within my legal right to dump my switch game and emulate it

[winter spindle]

Yeah but not to pirate it

[full fossil]

can switch run a game on 60 fps

[winter spindle]

Some

[jaunty compass]

to them there's no fucking difference

[winter spindle]

Yeah but it’s technically not legal. I still do it but eh

[full fossil]

game being cracked is inevitable denuvo just slows it a LOT

[jaunty compass]

emulating my own games that i dump from my own console is completely legal

[fossil frost]

series x and ps5 have open developer programs, where anybody can build homebrew for them.. which was always what the scene wanted, they dont care about piracy, that was just a byproduct of the scene... now that the people who wanted to run their own code on their consoles can do that... there isnt much incentive for them to bother

[winter spindle]

I know

[dreamy rose]

Dont think piracy is a conversation to have here.

[winter spindle]

Shady topic

[jaunty compass]

denuvo on switch is a horrible idea anyway
switch games already struggle to exist

[winter spindle]

They don’t struggle to exist

They struggle to run

[jaunty compass]

the joke was that they run so poorly they can barely hold themselves together enough to exist.

[full fossil]

i actually dont know anything about switch else that u can play zelda on it lol

[winter spindle]

Ok I guess

[jaunty compass]

the moment that switch games have anti-emulation drm is the moment i stop buying switch games, and nintendo consoles in general

[winter spindle]

I think next year they will make a switch 2

[winter spindle]

Ok Linux user

[fossil frost]

nintendo havnt done enough anti consumer stuff so far up until then to put you off buying their stuff?

[winter spindle]

They aren’t anti consumer enough to stop me from enjoying their games

[jaunty compass]

The only game I've bought from them the past four years was Metroid dread tbh

[jaunty compass]

To be honest it just hasn't come up yet

But I definitely won't be buying a switch 2

[dreamy rose]

i've lost the knack for consoles too tbh.

nobodys intresting anymore

[jaunty compass]

I probably won't even buy tears of the kingdom due to the arbitrary price hike to $70

On a switch game

that clearly had lower dev cost than the original

[winter spindle]

Ong jit trippin

[dreamy rose]

the only consoles i like are from the 360 and earlier.

[jaunty compass]

I was kinda excited for tears of the kingdom, but definitely not $70 excited.

[dreamy rose]

Retros and vintage;

[winter spindle]

I need to finish botw first

[jaunty compass]

Honestly

It really feels like gaming and tech in general is really going downhill

[dreamy rose]

the new games in general have been boring AF

[golden talon]

tech is getting going pretty far

gaming yeah its not getting many places

[dreamy rose]

Tech is getting good. but the things to do with it. we are stuck

[cloud dove]

What’s wrong with tech peaking? It means my old ass PC can be good for longer and give me my moneys worth for longer

[dreamy rose]

i feel like RT is going to be Overused, and its gonna be like "this game is better that it feels because it looks good"

A lobby group basically got to write the right to repair law to their liking over in new York

The new gen of GPUs have been a disappointment and a massive increase in cost and decrease in perf/$

A lot of things going on tech related rn are just really shitty

[eager venture]

No more Intel tech upgrade??

[cloud dove]

Unlike when I spent 1200 dollars in middle school and then 3 years later it was to old to play modern games. angry at dinkleberg meme plays

[dreamy rose]

what bullshyte are you speaking son?

[eager venture]

All my homies hate Intel

[eager venture]

They announced it on wan show

[dreamy rose]

true that. Intel sucks

[jaunty compass]

Now it's time for AMD tech upgrade

[dreamy rose]

they would be best showing off AMD Advantage for desktops

[eager venture]

Yes. But that means a Radeon gpu which is only good for gaming

[cloud dove]

Best thing right now is you can have a pc with 5-7 year old parts and still play modern games with good frame rates at mid to low settings. This is great for consumers. 10-15 years ago you couldn’t get that kinda life out of a pc

[vapid smelt]

intel pulling out once they heard LTT has over 100 employees

[dreamy rose]

yeah good luck with anything older than that.

[idle skiff]

half a million dollars lolll

[eager venture]

[cloud dove]

I mean they are aging out and it will happen but getting 5-7 years out a pc is still a great ROI compared to the year my 1200$ pc played modern games well in 2006 and then the 2 years after I lived in denial playing then modern games at 10 fps just to try to justify my purchase

[dreamy rose]

i play Anything at 10 FPS.

no matter the age or how intesnive it is. my shit finds ways to break the unplayable barrier.

maybe its the 1GB of 900Mhz DDR3 for VRAM.

[cloud dove]

Was able to play elden ring at mid settings last year and was able to get over 60 fps with my rx570 which is going on 6 years. I call this a great time to be into pc’s just gotta be into the after market scene and looking to maximize the length of life you get out of your pc becuase you can do that now adays

[dreamy rose]

at best

[jaunty compass]

Elden ring was really 💀

[cloud dove]

Was an example

[jaunty compass]

So many games have been coming out recently that performed terribly on PC at launch

elden ring had severe stutters on the windows

Devs need to Port their games properly

[cloud dove]

I played high on life with high settings recently and got good frames in that too. As long as rtx is off in games It runs wel

[dreamy rose]

"Hahaha. No"- Rockstar

[cloud dove]

Right now just buy a last Gen rtx series and keep it for 5 or 6 years and you’ll get your moneys worth.

Don’t think it’s ever worth being at peak performance

[balmy lotus]

[cloud dove]

I’m down for this!

[eager venture]

You motherfucker you fucking called it

[balmy lotus]

YOOO YVONNE

[jaunty compass]

Wait really?

[eager venture]

Yes

[dreamy rose]

would rather buy a lower end 7000 and get even more value out of it

[jaunty compass]

Lmaoo

[cloud dove]

Do it!

Just don’t buy the 4080 or whatever until the price comes down and the reliablity is proven

Gotta be for real thrifty to be a gaming when you aren’t made of dollars signs

[dreamy rose]

thing is i'm poor and i have nothing for a PC. and i need a Laptop. so i cant buy a PC. but i desperately want to upgrade from the hell that is Sandy Bridge, being Burnt by Fermi.

[jaunty compass]

for the 4080 to be a good buy
it needs to come down a lot

it's really bad

[dreamy rose]

Just like the Company that made it

[cloud dove]

My buddy bought an rx580 from Best Buy recently when he was down bad for a graphics card and didn’t have any money and got it for under 100$. you could easily build a rig of that era for like 400$ and play a lot of popular games

I’m gonna ride with this rx570 until either the games I play stop giving me good frame rates, or it dies.

[eager venture]

What’s ur budget

[dreamy rose]

a lot of what i play is literally gonna be fine with a 1060.

[jaunty compass]

the 4080 had a 71% price increase over the 3080 and had like a 30% performance increase

[dreamy rose]

nothing.

[jaunty compass]

it's really fucking bad

[dreamy rose]

you should look at the 4090 Laptop.

[tepid bolt]

Budget gamers just get a steam deck

[dreamy rose]

Worse than a 4080 for 200 dollars more than a 4090

[cloud dove]

Have you considered going to one of those places where people donate old garbage pc’s and just learning how to sort through and buy scrap pc’s and Frankenstein one together that’s your best bet for a no budget pc

[tepid bolt]

Or just anyone who needs a laptop on a budget

[cloud dove]

Requires a lot of knowledge of what to look for and some luck though

[eager venture]

Go to Facebook marketplace and find a cheap sell optiflex for less than 15 bucks

[jaunty compass]

To be honest, at the moment this

[dreamy rose]

cant find something like that around Melbourne.

[jaunty compass]

Games are getting optimized for it, it's relatively inexpensive, and it's portable

[cloud dove]

Steam deck does seem like a solid option for anyone who has like a 600$ budget

[dreamy rose]

its also Linux so thats better for everyone

[dreamy rose]

theres one big problem with the Steam Deck though

[tepid bolt]

It's $400 tho

[jaunty compass]

The deck retails at $400 for the base model

Add in a third party SSD upgrade and you're at like $500 for a 512 gig deck

After taxes

[cloud dove]

Well I meant with a purchase of mouse keyboard and display to go with

[jaunty compass]

I mean, everyone kind of already has that stuff

[dreamy rose]

i dont have a keyboard.

So, is samsung batteries just terrible? I was thinking of simply upgrading to the S23U, but I really don't want to be forced to replace my phone due a bulging battery after only 2-3years

[dreamy rose]

i need one. but i dont have one

[jaunty compass]

How

[cloud dove]

Do you have like 420$ USD, if so get the base model steam deck and upgrade the SSD later

[dreamy rose]

i'm sitting here typing on my laptop. when it could be sitting somwhere getting better airflow

[dreamy rose]

i'm in Australia

I would start with some theorpy my guy and maybe find stuff to make you feel better. You sound really down right now

I’d give you a hug but that would be weird

The world would be better if batteries were easily user replaceable

[dreamy rose]

havent got bank Details to do so yet,

[full fossil]

they are in some electronics

[jaunty compass]

I was referring to specifically phones

[full fossil]

yes and specifically phones are bad lately

[gilded stratus]

@dreamy rose 2-3 months with average use of an iPhone results in the battery alredy holding less charge

[dreamy rose]

gotta go do learners for ID and then go through Paperwork.

My pfp isn’t even technically joe Rogan it’s suppose to be a joke. It’s a picture of what an AI drew when I told them to draw Joe Rogan

If you look at it up close the face is all fucked up

exactly why i thought this is joe rogan

i wanna be building computers. but i'm presented with a choice. good pay or dream Job.

[gilded stratus]

No but I don’t use my phone when I charge it in general too

[inner terrace]

yikes

[trim robin]

do you charge it over night?

[gilded stratus]

No

[cloud dove]

Posted a picture in off topic of it

[full fossil]

i thought this is joe rogan making another animal impression

[cloud dove]

Agreed

[inner terrace]

I do sometimes, but I have the "protect battery" setting turned on to stop it charging past 85%

[full fossil]

what is the good pay option

[vapid smelt]

do you use fast charging

[dreamy rose]

Holding up signs for 36 hours a week.

[trim robin]

oof, how mutch less dose it ast now?

[gilded stratus]

Yeah cus like every other charger I use is shit

[full fossil]

have you thought about learning some skill

[cloud dove]

I’m a bricklayer. It’s good pay plus dream job. First shift hours always, time off when it rains, and good benefits

[full fossil]

im a graphic designer

i work from home whenever i want to

[dreamy rose]

like building computers? i wish. i haven't got anything to build.

[jaunty compass]

manufacturers need to stop fucking gluing down batteries and screens

[vapid smelt]

im a warehouse worker that plays on my steam deck 80% of the time

[inner terrace]

idk. I don't know if it changed all that much since I got the replacement back in Oct. 2021. but since the battery is currently bulging, how long it holds a charge is the least of my concerns

[dreamy rose]

Apple did it first. blame Apple

[full fossil]

i think u just need to know how to build one

[cloud dove]

Is this like how Apple started sottering in their ram sticks and shit like that so you couldn’t do upgrades yourself on the mac pros. Apple is a garbage company

[stark basin]

I'm a service advisor at a car dealership. Commission is fantastic

[vapid smelt]

when you say screens you mean the glue on the outside/rim of the phone?

[inner terrace]

Oh, and none of my phones looked like it had a bulging battery EXCEPT for the discoloration prominent mostly in grey colors

[jaunty compass]

i mean the glue that glues down the screen so you need a heat gun to replace anything broken at all

[dreamy rose]

that happened to my S4. then my Stepdad destroyed it when they got another battery for it. the bastard destroys everything he touches, at least when it comes to Phones.

[jaunty compass]

companies that make their devices harder to repair can fuck themselves honestly

[vapid smelt]

the glue they use for Ip water rating and possibly drop resistant

[full fossil]

i dont think they do it on purpose

[jaunty compass]

they very clearly do

[dreamy rose]

what makes me mad was the fact when i was presented with the task of finding new phones. i picked out the A21, fit the bill perfectly. but no. my mum gets an A11 for me and my sister and they get the A21s. my stepdads killed his within a month.

now i've suffered wth the A11 since 2020.

[full fossil]

i have busted j6 lol

[vapid smelt]

pixel 5a here

[full fossil]

that i use only to answer calls

[dreamy rose]

i dont have the phone on me anymore. and havent for months.

[full fossil]

you type from sandy laptop right

[inner terrace]

The only reason I even knew it was bulging was because of a screen discoloration noticeable in greys like when I'm using night mode

[dreamy rose]

those 2nd Gen i5s Aged like milk.

[inner terrace]

I have no clue about iphone naming conventions xD, but I'm guessing bigger the number, the better the phone?

[full fossil]

i remember having i5 3570

[dreamy rose]

the S4 was hot and the plastic cover got firm around the battery area.

[full fossil]

these are samsungs i believe

[dreamy rose]

Samsungs. i had an iPhone 6 before this. it was terrible.

[sonic spruce]

Can you power a pwm fan using molex?

[full fossil]

samsung phones are hella worth it

i bought this one for 180 and im been using it for 5 years with no problems

[dreamy rose]

not the A1x series.

maybe not the A2x series either.

[full fossil]

S series are defo worth it

[gilded quest]

Samsung makes a lot of phones. Not all of them make sense

im 5'10.5

[wintry dagger]

im also 17 and ur an adult coopa

[vapid smelt]

im only 22

[wintry dagger]

[manic torrent]

I am 5'10, but I have been the same height for 20+ years

[vapid smelt]

i was also 5'9? when i was 16

[fluid ridge]

i am 6'1 😎

unfortunately im a bit skinny

[manic torrent]

Oh, I don't have that problem thankfully

[fluid ridge]

but one day i will weigh more than 135lb 😎

[vapid smelt]

????????

[fluid ridge]

you think i am joking

i am completely serious

nvm i just weighed myself and im actually 128

this shits tough man 😭

[vapid smelt]

we have this thing called food

[fluid ridge]

i can almost guarantee you my caloric intake is higher than yours

i eat absolute crap all day

but i got stinky genetics passed down to me and an insanely fast metabolism

it is what it is

[vapid smelt]

share some metabolism with me bro

[fluid ridge]

man if i could split that shit i would

its tough out here

[timid meadow]

Deleted bc i was tryina be supportive but your tryina gain not loose rip

[wintry dagger]

tf how

[vapid smelt]

Genetics

[timid meadow]

Ive been 5'6-5'7 since around that age. I knew a kid who was like 6'5 in 8th grade. Literally watched him jump over another kid to get to class on time

[vapid smelt]

Average male growth in height

[tender geyser]

Ur not alone

Just existing isn’t gonna cut it for us twigs

People think we’re anorexic or some shit

[vapid smelt]

Can you pack on muscle?

[tender geyser]

Well anyone can

Just takes more work for skinny people

Cuz they got no fat to burn for energy or something I can’t remember what it was

[vapid smelt]

I'll take 15% of both of your metabolisms

[tender geyser]

Like if I truly tried to

I’d have to have a fixed diet weird stuff like that

Like bodybuilder diet or something

[timid meadow]

Cant afford to give mine up. Im starting to loose it as i get older so i need to use what i have while its here kekw

[tender geyser]

And go to the gym every day or at home

I’m not tryna do that rn

Like I did some basic stuff with some 15lb dumbbells for a month and barely any change because I wasn’t eating right

[manic torrent]

It turns out, people are all different and their bodies work differently! 😮

[tender geyser]

Crazy right

[vapid smelt]

Impossible

[timid meadow]

Theres still change. Making your body move is good. Alot of people dont realize how little exercise most get. May not be physical right away, but you probably slept a lil better or something

[tender geyser]

That is probably true actually

I got covid again which killed my motivation to keep going along with not seeing any noticeable results

I really should start again

[timid meadow]

Try and do stuff that doesnt feel like a workout. Bike somewhere instead of walking or driving, vr games, etc

I bike to work and didn't realize till recently that if i wanted to count it itd be "30 mins of biking 2x a day 5x a week" which sounds like alot but doesnt feel like it

[manic torrent]

Yeah but dijdnruwmsmdbdi

[vapid smelt]

Nah 5fps is

if the 4090 was good it would be doing over 100 FPS here, shit card.

change USB port, add power to USB hub, get better USB cable, see if that changes it

oh, also what is the surface it's on, that can cause that

[full fossil]

fabric mousepad?

i tried A4 paper

just the same

[full fossil]

how? any tutorial?

[vapid smelt]

Try a ltt mouse mat

[manic torrent]

You need a tutorial to swap to a different USB port?

[full fossil]

yes?

[manic torrent]

plug it in somewhere else

[full fossil]

oh

i tried alr,just the same

[vapid smelt]

How do I take it out?

I'll take YOUR cake out of the oven, if you know what I mean

[dreamy rose]

its gonna burn

Didnt need to read this today.

[full fossil]

do u think its a hardware issue? i just bought it yesterday,everything clean

[dreamy rose]

i Perfer nobody touch the cakes i make.

not until its eating time

[vapid smelt]

Did you download the Logitech mouse software

[full fossil]

g hub yes

[dreamy rose]

Logitech software doesnt work for me. shame cause i did want to turn the RGB on my mouse off. but idc about it anymore

[full fossil]

the gaming software not yet

[vapid smelt]

I just set mine to red and never touched it again

[full fossil]

what about it?

[vapid smelt]

Idk thought it would magically fix it some how

[full fossil]

nope

[vapid smelt]

When I doubt rma it or factory reset windows

[manic torrent]

The G102 apparently has a bit of a shitty sensor - but G hub you can actually tune for your surface

my g305 was out of warrenty but logitech still sent me a replacement

[inland night]

I just found out something dangerous for my wallet my favourite local used game store has a option to ship stuff

[full fossil]

Is logitech bad

[dim steppe]

no

the software is meh but i wouldn't say logitech mice r bad

[low vessel]

is there a website where I can put my future computer build and see how much fps ill get out of it from games?

[manic torrent]

No, it's that specific mouse

[dim steppe]

no, just go to youtube and search the cpu and gpu and benchmarks instead

[dreamy rose]

in our dreams

[manic torrent]

It's never quite that simple but you can get a pretty good idea.

[tender geyser]

Idk what’s up with em but all my Logitech mice have been loud

Just a slight tap on it and you hear something vibrating or colliding inside idk what it is

But I hate it

[dim steppe]

lol tf

[full fossil]

So g102 is bad then

[dawn geode]

yo

[manic torrent]

As far as I can tell

[full fossil]

So should i get the warranty or change my mouse

[kindred coral]

Warranty is free

[full fossil]

But im getting another bad mouse

Its like changing trash for a better trash no?

[kindred coral]

If you're unsaturated with mouse overall then yeah get new one

[full fossil]

Whats unsaturated? Chemistry?

[dreamy rose]

[cerulean saffron]

first PC I ever built still works... 2013-2023
i5 2310 and 8GB DDR3 1600MHz 😌

What were your first builds?

[manic torrent]

First one I really remember was a pentium 133, but there was some before that

[cerulean saffron]

Wow.. how long ago

Just realized the "133" is for "133 MHz"... 1995

[manic torrent]

Yep. We also had a 486 dx4/100 before that, and a 286 before that, and a z80 before that

[cerulean saffron]

I'd say good ol days but I didn't exist in 1995

[cerulean saffron]

I'll have to google all of them 😅

oh is DX4 the first 100MHz CPU

[manic torrent]

Yep

It may have actually been a dx2/66, my memory is a little vague as you can imagine

[cerulean saffron]

yeah it's been a while... Nice 😌

[manic torrent]

... fast forward many years, and now I have a 5700x and a 3080ti that does things I couldn't dream of back then.

[cerulean saffron]

Yeah it's awesome... I have a Ryzen 9 5900x / Strix 2080Ti / 64GB DDR4 3600mhz RAM

I still remember experiencing 60fps for the first time on that first build of mine (with a GTX 650 Ti Boost) after playing on 24fps laptops all the time

Old PCs were still very usable till end of WinXP iirc

I still saw a lot of XP till 2011/2012

[dreamy rose]

the good old Zilog.still around.

[kindred coral]

Well mine first build was two years ago so...

Intel i5-7600K, msi tomahawk z270, gtx970, RAM Kingston 16GB 2666Hz

I didn't have money for anything earlier

And pc never was priority back then

Tbh I had pc all-in-one for 6 years, I wanted to die
Celeron should die

[manic torrent]

I used an og Xbox with xbmc as my media centre for many years. Back when we had a CRT TV

[cerulean saffron]

That's a nice build 😄 Strix 970 was my 2nd good GPU

[kindred coral]

That's cool!
The gpu still works but in my mom's pc. Since her iGPU is no good.

I bought myself rtx3060 and it works so well even with that old cpu

[cerulean saffron]

hahah yeah iGPUs aren't good for much... 3060 also very nice

[cerulean saffron]

oof I remember them... and how much they sucked 😂 As of now, instead of a weak overheating dying aio PC, I'd rather use a phone

[dull tapir]

i have g102 and g305 for years and not a single problem

[dreamy rose]

Celeron is Dead, so is Pentium. now its "Intel Processor"

[dull tapir]

i mostly use g203 but yesterday i ordered new g305 because it was on sale because old one had shiny plastic

[kindred coral]

Well it's just that iGPU is straight from factory bad. Why? Who knows... My mom is too lazy to apply warranty

[mild elm]

Good choice

[cerulean saffron]

bad like doesn't work at all / no display out / drivers fail?

[kindred coral]

Idk I see laptops with those shits everywhere

[dull tapir]

people say battery increases a lot of weight but it is not that heavier superlight was too light for me and i sent it back also not a fan of palm grip so i prefer egg shaped mice people also recommend aria

[kindred coral]

More like it does weird stuff in certain situations.

It might be SW issue but since I don't have that kind of problem with gpu or igpu then idk.

I mean now it shall work good and I'm more afraid of HW problem.

Idk, could dig into drivers but dunno much how (igpu ones)

[dull tapir]

depends what you use them for and how much you are willing to spend

[kindred coral]

I meant by dead: stopping selling or even producing them

[dull tapir]

i guess i see they perform awfully for most things

but i guess for web they are fine for the low budget

[dreamy rose]

yeah cause they are old stock or havent adopted the new chips yet, which i believe are called Nxxx CPUs

[dreamy rose]

not anymore they arent. AMD got our backs. just not on Desktop yet. stupid they arent on Desktop but oh well we gotta wait

would LOVE to see the Demise of the 1060 and 1650.

[dull tapir]

i still use my gtx 1080 i swapped for gtx 1050 a while ago

i was gonna get 3060 or 3070 but it still works more than good enough for most games

[cerulean saffron]

On laptops, iGPUs are good for power saving stuff... and on many, the display is connected to iGPU so iGPU is required even if there is a dGPU present

[dreamy rose]

why swap a 1080 for a 1050?

[cerulean saffron]

quite sure it was the other way around o.o

[dull tapir]

if you swap one for one it could go either way

i swapped 1080 for 1050 to someone else

[dreamy rose]

yeah, but when the iGPU can game. its a different story

[dull tapir]

so it is like a reverse of it

[dreamy rose]

the 1050 for the 1080?

[dull tapir]

well now i use 1080 not 1050 but yes it could go either way

since there is no people called who is doing the swapped for what

[dreamy rose]

so you Swapped the 1050 for the 1080

[dull tapir]

i could also swapped 1080 for 1050

[timid ocean]

guys im looking for an ltt video. i can just remember that linus daughter asked him for an apple lmao

[unkempt widget]

i would use a 1080 over a 1050 tbh

[dull tapir]

i am using 1080 not 1050

[unkempt widget]

agreed

a 1080 would be much nicer to use than a 1050

[dull tapir]

i sold 1050 for 250eur and bought 1080 for 300eur

1050 ti worked like a beast for most indie games and even most games except for triple a games

i was gonna get 1080 ti but i found cheap 1080 so i got it instead of 3060

it still gets any triple a game 60 on 1080

unless game is very badly optimized

[heady wadi]

me casually surviving on a nvidia GT 420

[dull tapir]

i remember when they were new especially voodoo

i had a ton of ati cards

[cerulean saffron]

First time trying Ventoy because I want easy and multi boot options... Is it really as easy as copying all ISOs to the partition and it'll all just work?

[gilded plinth]

Yup

[heady wadi]

Yes i use it aswell

[cerulean saffron]

Awesome... ig it can't be easier than this 😄

[mild elm]

The run on sentence

[cerulean saffron]

Radeon HD5450 was the first GPU I ever got and I hated it... overheating all the time while barely getting 30fps at 1024x600 (I created that resolution myself because it's lower than 1024x768 and better fits a 16:9 aspect ratio)

30fps on Assassin's Creed Brotherhood

[dull tapir]

nice i believe i had hd5550 or hd5500 not sure anymore it was great for 360p and 480p

[heady wadi]

You can even edit fstab to automatically mount the partition and make a folder act as a ISO dump that you can boot whenever you want

[dull tapir]

does anyone care who has time or energy to focus on it it is actually well formed if you ignore the commas

[heady wadi]

just download the ISOs to that folder and done

[kindred coral]

Yes they do

[cerulean saffron]

Nice... so far I didn't need a folder to boot from. Wouldnt it be easier to add the folder contents to a new iso and use that instead? but then ig a folder is much easy to modify and make changes to, than extract/remake

[heady wadi]

@cerulean saffron read this aswell ^^^

[dreamy rose]

1050 is already dead.

[heady wadi]

if thats dead then my GPU is even more dead

[cerulean saffron]

oh right missed that

[dreamy rose]

mine has been in the grave for 1000 years

[heady wadi]

mine is even more, i use Nvidia GT420

[unkempt widget]

nice

can't wait to sli a rtx 6090 with a gt 420

[heady wadi]

i mean gt 420 is overkill for what i do anyways

[cerulean saffron]

1 thing with old GPUs is no new codec support... 😐

[manic torrent]

I use a 6600XT to do my IT infrastructure consulting job

[dull tapir]

if you do not play new triple a games it is pointless to just upgrade gpu

[polar fern]

Did someone really come in here & say they’ve used the same phone for 5 years then say all the iPhones are the same & “overpriced”?

[heady wadi]

The only thing that matters to me is CPU. I cant use QubesOS because of it 😭

[dull tapir]

even i still play mostly only indie games since most new triple a games are awful or old games like postal and legacy of kain

[manic torrent]

Probably. Shit like that more or less happens every day

[dreamy rose]

GT 540M. 1GB of DDR3 Slower

[heady wadi]

my laptop also has that

And still overkill

[polar fern]

It’s funny to read comments from folks who clearly don’t have a complete picture of what they’re complaining about.

[dreamy rose]

Ah you didnt say M.

[polar fern]

GSMarena may not have all the specs but damn you can compare basically any 2 phones from the last 10 years

[heady wadi]

No, i have 2 computers one is a desktop and the other is a laptop

the desktop has the gt420

the laptop has 540M

[polar fern]

Like do 5 minutes of homework before complaining? 🤷‍♂️

[dreamy rose]

And you say its Overkill?

[polar fern]

540M yikes

[heady wadi]

For what i do, yes

[polar fern]

Igpu on laptops is honestly fine

[heady wadi]

the most GPU intensive thing i do would be me playing some STK

[dreamy rose]

if i got a dollar for everytime someone said this i would be rich enough to upgrade

[polar fern]

🤣

[unkempt widget]

that doesn't exist lmao

it's just the geforce 210, no gt

[dreamy rose]

and i'm Stretching the idea of Upgrade here

[polar fern]

I just know they are not recommended for multiple game titles

[dreamy rose]

no its the GT 2

its the GeForce GT 2. it was definitely called the GeForce GT 2

[polar fern]

Graphics Thing 2

[heady wadi]

but NGL STK is a good game

[polar fern]

Stk?

[heady wadi]

its short for Super Tux Kart

[polar fern]

Also lololol intel can’t handle LTT anymore

That’s probably one of the funniest things I’ve heard in a long time

[unkempt widget]

wait why did they back out

i heard it was because of the arc challenge

[polar fern]

They can’t afford to do the extreme tech upgrade because they’re spending all of their money, trying to figure out their new graphics card

[unkempt widget]

oh

so still because of the arc

[polar fern]

I’m not sure, I didn’t watch the wan show because I was watching stuff with my lady

I watched the pre-show which was like a half hour long

Where Luke was getting all philosophical about wellness and physical activity and stuff

I can see now why Luke and Linus make such a good team

[dreamy rose]

AMD is gonna love the marketing

I wonder when they will make a QubesOS review

[unkempt widget]

can't wait for the 7800xt tbh
(yes i'm now calling x3d xt now)

[polar fern]

I’ve always been an AMD fan. Intel just too much of a boilerplate company.

[unkempt widget]

currently the best cpu imo for general use is the 13600K

[polar fern]

back in 2000 I was actually hoping to see Apple switch to AMD.

[unkempt widget]

but that's just my opinion

i really want intel and amd to switch to arm tbh

[heady wadi]

I would personally prefer a CPU with high core and thread amounts

[polar fern]

Unlikely.

[unkempt widget]

or else apple will just dominate

[unkempt widget]

7950x
16c32t

there's also threadrippers which are no longer consumer but eh

[polar fern]

Yeah, but you can’t change your storage or your memory on the Apple Silicon devices. It’s not the be all end all solution

[unkempt widget]

oh my god the backspace button is so high up

[unkempt widget]

wait you physically can't?

[dreamy rose]

AMD already did ARM

[heady wadi]

I mean i do prefer industrial hardware instead of consumer

[polar fern]

You physically can’t

It’s literally all on one die

[unkempt widget]

can't wait for amd to also start using e cores tbh
then bionic will get so mad and i will enjoy it

[zinc geode]

Gmorning

[polar fern]

Ahoy

[zinc geode]

I am digging through a windows instillation

I will surely be back here after work

[heady wadi]

..for what?

[unkempt widget]

i'm pretty sure bell suggested the telephone to be answered by "ahoy"

[polar fern]

Yes

He was definitely an interesting person

[zinc geode]

I’m trying to get 10 enterprise on a default windows 10 home nvme drive

[polar fern]

It shouldn’t matter what was on the drive before, if it’s a fresh installation

[heady wadi]

If you need enterprise stuff you might aswell use a enterprise linux distro instead

or BSD stuff

[polar fern]

Linux is definitely a good alternative to Macos or Windows but try to not always suggest it to people who are definitely trying to do something with macOS or Windows

[zinc geode]

Hmm, I just want it cuz it cuts a lot of windows bs out the equation, but at this point windows is being so annoying I would consider it

[polar fern]

Sounds like a job for mint

[heady wadi]

yeah

[heady wadi]

Are you going to use your device for enterprise stuff or regular desktop?

[zinc geode]

Ideally, I could install windows 10 enterprise from the windows setup file but it doesn’t work and always randomly cancels at 65%, I’ve messed around with flash drive boots off of Rufus and none of it works

Just gonna use it for normal desktop stuff for the most part

[heady wadi]

then use Linux Mint

[polar fern]

Is the drive partitioned properly?

[zinc geode]

I already paid $30 for a license though, and I have no idea about the drive tbh

[polar fern]

If it’s not partitioned properly, then it won’t work past a certain installation percentage

[heady wadi]

has GUI for pretty much everything so its ideal for a beginnetr

[polar fern]

Either itll hang at a certain percentage, or it won’t even work to begin with

[dreamy rose]

Debian Edition. fuck Ubuntu

[polar fern]

Anyway, I should probably go get some sleep

Y’all be good

[unkempt widget]

holy shit

my fans kicked in on my macbook air

[manic torrent]

You have a lot of very strong opinions

[unkempt widget]

from watching youtube

[heady wadi]

..I would prefer Rocky over debian for servers

[unkempt widget]

you have been trying to push this narrative for so long

istg i watched an entire 30 minutes of you screaming inside trying to say why ubuntu is bad

and you didn't bring up a single point

[heady wadi]

its cuz snap

[unkempt widget]

you just went around in circles

[heady wadi]

snap packages are crap

[polar fern]

Video decode is a thing.

Ok I’m off

[heady wadi]

snap is not about video

[polar fern]

Y’all be good.

I am talking about the YouTube thing on MacBook

[dreamy rose]

its not even Snap. its the fact its pointless

[polar fern]

Anyways, bye

[manic torrent]

Everything is pointless

[dreamy rose]

LMDE is the proof.

[heady wadi]

idk, a linux distro for macbooks exist. Waiting for a review on that aswell

[unkempt widget]

it's burning hot now lmao

[unkempt widget]

wait that exists??? where???

[heady wadi]

its called "Asahi Linux"

[dreamy rose]

not a Mac if its not burning a Crater in the earth

[unkempt widget]

explain why it is pointless

[heady wadi]

its still in early stages of development though, but it does work

[manic torrent]

"because I don't like it"

"I can't see a direct use for me, right now"

[dreamy rose]

Debian Edition of Mint is exactly the same. Minus the Terminal Ads

[unkempt widget]

prolly what he'll say

[manic torrent]

You're like my 5 year old. Yeeting shit you don't want RIGHT NOW

[dreamy rose]

its really nothing but Adding a corpo and more bugs to the mix

[unkempt widget]

oh no, there's one line in the terminal that tells you to subscribe

[heady wadi]

fr

[unkempt widget]

it's not even intrusive or bright colors

[heady wadi]

Thats why i use community backed distros instead

[dreamy rose]

its a terminal not youtube

[manic torrent]

Kek, and Ubuntu did nothing for debian.

[dreamy rose]

yes, i know. Everyone used Ubuntu in the beginning. Doesn't mean its the same today.

[manic torrent]

I just love the way it's not "I prefer", it's "omg it's garbage on toast "

[heady wadi]

Not me, I did use it on the middle stages though but not the beginning

[unkempt widget]

good for you

[dreamy rose]

Doesn't matter when. After 20.04 it turned to shit

[heady wadi]

In the beginning i used AntiX

[manic torrent]

I used it when it was called no-name-yet.com 😄

[rigid moon]

still no pic perm

[unkempt widget]

twitch sub, floatplane, or boost

boost should be the fastest way - instantaneous

also has anyone seen public chat inactive for 44 minutes?

[manic torrent]

yes

it happens all the time. IT is not remarkable.

[unkempt widget]

i personally never have

[summer folio]

Is it illegal to open Coke-Bottles in stores just for fun?

[unkempt widget]

but then again, i haven't been in this discord for long

[summer folio]

I mean, you can just screw the bottle cap on again.

[unkempt widget]

no, coke expires 3-7 days after you take the cap off

[summer folio]

Skill issue

[dreamy rose]

you think a Coke is gonna sit there on a store shelf for 7 days?

not even gonna sit there for 3

[unkempt widget]

not the point lmao

i might buy a bottle of coke and drink it in 3 weeks

and now someone's responsible

[dreamy rose]

we are talking bottles not cans

[unkempt widget]

me too

[molten shuttle]

Can we get a F in chat for whoever wants to go to LTX but can't?

[unkempt widget]

1. it would be unnerving for me to open a bottle up and it just automatically opens

[dreamy rose]

you've confused yourself

[unkempt widget]

imagine buying a bottle of coke and the cap is already unscrewed

[dreamy rose]

Did you really just react to your own post?

[nocturne rover]

What does it mean when you can't find Any reviews anywhere for a new device?

[summer folio]

You haven't checked YouTube yet.

[dreamy rose]

nobody can review it yet

or you didnt even look

[unkempt widget]

also when you unscrew the cap, the fizz runs out very quickly

[molten shuttle]

I just added a reaction so others can react

[summer folio]

Someone replaced your coke with Soda Stream Cola.

[dreamy rose]

nobody is reacting

[nocturne rover]

I'm getting the device today, I've checked Google, YouTube Even bloody TikTok and i can't find any sort of review for this Device.

[unkempt widget]

why are you so mad

[dreamy rose]

imagine looking at TikTok

[unkempt widget]

you talk like you're pissed

[dreamy rose]

i am pissed, at my laptop. and no, i do not

[unkempt widget]

you're ready to argue against everybody

[dreamy rose]

thats what you think

[unkempt widget]

that's what you do lmao
also you're doing it rn

[full fossil]

way to be extra vague on DEVICE

[nocturne rover]

[dreamy rose]

is it? or am i just talking? (Spoiler alert: i'm talking)

[manic torrent]

Now this is a device. The pivot for my crane. Sadly it's too late to drill more so I can't finish it. Watch this space.
