Our loaner laptops for those with financial need are M2 MacBook Airs with 16GB of ram

Yeah I’d never buy a Mac desktop at this state

[dreamy rose]

Fuck Windows, you want Linux

[fathom crown]

WSL is fine

Booting Linux natively is just a nerd flex at this point

[dreamy rose]

no. its a sign of having better taste in OS.

[fathom crown]

wrong one

https://tenor.com/view/how-linux-users-install-a-web-browser-linux-linux-users-gif-20223386

[dreamy rose]

Windows is a problem even while Dualbooting

[fathom crown]

ok floatplane pilot

thx

i use macOS for all development work as a Unix and POSIX compliant system its just as good as linux for software development and imo has a much more user friendly UI

when you arent trying to use a package manager to download discord

i have a friend who uses linux without a display manager

thats the sign of a true god

[dreamy rose]

Everyone uses Linux.

[fathom crown]

linux without display manager is just headless linux

no gui

[fathom crown]

im sure a lot of ppl use linux but a lot of people definitely use macos too

windows with WSL is fine for software work, but windows by itself nahhh

[dreamy rose]

imagine A car running on MacOS

[fathom crown]

unless all ur using is .net or something

[fathom crown]

my car runs on linux actually

like unironically my car runs on linux when i use the built in browser it shows up as linux

[dreamy rose]

everyone uses linux. its everywhere.

[fathom crown]

ok i do plan to dual boot asahi

as soon as its more polished on my mac

[timid meadow]

Yepp. OS in general linux has market share by a mile. More of a conversation when you break it down into mobile, desktop, embedded, server, etc

[fathom crown]

by more polished i mean as soon as they sort out gpu acceleration

[dreamy rose]

Any linux is better than none.

thats what Microsoft wants

thats why they are doing WSL

[timid meadow]

Wsl is cool for some stuff. Id rather use full linux in a vm or bare metal tho

[dreamy rose]

the only good thing it does is let you access a Linux Filesystem through windows. but that's ALL that's good about it

Support should have been in the kernel in the first place

[wispy marsh]

On the bright side, valentines chocolate are massively discounted from the pre-valentines msrp once 14th is over. So enjoy your post-valentines chocolate... alone

[dreamy rose]

its all literally FOSS and its not hard to implement hell ReactOS does it fine

[wraith sonnet]

@vapid smelt @manic torrent @graceful burrow @pliant karma the spite build is happening

[pliant karma]

oh god I thought you were bluffing

[wraith sonnet]

Reminder: this is an x570 board

[pliant karma]

what cpu

[wraith sonnet]

I even have a windows Vista key ready

[wraith sonnet]

3200g currently, probably going to downgrade to a 4100

[pliant karma]

[pliant karma]

gpu wise have you considered one?

[wraith sonnet]

Gt 710 is ready

[pliant karma]

lol the 6400 was on my mind because ah

[wraith sonnet]

I just need a HDMI to DP cable

[pliant karma]

wait so how did you mount the intel cooler on that motherboard

[wraith sonnet]

This has been a build that I put together on pcpp in 2021 and have been toying with since

Tb3 but yes

[pliant karma]

huh nice

[wraith sonnet]

I have the b550 vision d for my main desktop which is noctua themed

This one is just CURSED

Even have a non modular SFx PSU reasg

The vision d is nice because of the dual thunderbolt

[pliant karma]

Msi B550 Meg Unify cause it was the only board at microcenter with the features I wanted. x570 boards weren't as in stock. I paid way too much for this board

[wraith sonnet]

The vision d was 300 USD.....

[pliant karma]

300$ basically for my b550 board also

but my other board decided to stop working that day and I wasn't down to do an RMA and wait

[wraith sonnet]

Meg unify wasn't a bad board I built on it a few times

[pliant karma]

oh it is nice. Just the nvme wiring is weird

use the most bottom one....loose the bottom x16 slot

[wraith sonnet]

I never got that far into it, SI's don't have time to get that granular

[pliant karma]

use the middle 2 loose all 6 sata ports and x4 use

but you can run all nvme on that board

[wary summit]

So apparently Xiaomi sells rubix cubes

[wraith sonnet]

Huh

[wary summit]

Rubik's cubes

[pliant karma]

oh windows fuck off about that. I run my system 24/7 idle 90% of the time so I emit enough carbon

[wraith sonnet]

Wtf it's Bluetooth?

[heady flicker]

windows could reduce its carbon emissions by disabling all the telemetries on windows systems

[wary summit]

for my desktop it says Sleep is off which may lead to low battery life and increased carbon emissions

[pliant karma]

idk how much power I use each month but it's not a nice amount to say the least. Obviously my appliances take first then second me

[teal estuary]

why 24/7?

[pliant karma]

remote pc

[teal estuary]

raspi connected to power switch pins?

[pliant karma]

don't have that sort of stuff atm, but it is an option

[teal estuary]

also, IPMI can be real nice for that kind of stuff

[pliant karma]

i just run it 24/7 for my cameras to record to.

[teal estuary]

oh, ok, so, it is doing something 24/7

its not just a remote access machine

[pliant karma]

camera and remote into when I need to do something while on vacation lol

but yea powerbill was around 550$ this month.

[manic torrent]

HDMI to DP is cursed.

[teal estuary]

EU?

[pliant karma]

US

[wraith sonnet]

Isn't that the point?

small Windows 11. this is the dream

[wraith sonnet]

Huh

[teal estuary]

do you have something super high power draw?

[wraith sonnet]

Dm the iso plox

[pliant karma]

socal edison just being them as per usual they've increased the price a bit. I'm on tier 2

[dreamy rose]

you want the Superlight windows?

[teal estuary]

i was about to say, that sounds very SD or Hawaii

i was close, very close

[wraith sonnet]

Yes

[pliant karma]

My grandma tends to run her small heater 24/7 and keeps things on without knowing so that is also where power gets sucked backed.

I have to make sure they're off when she is not around

[teal estuary]

yea, that would do it

[wraith sonnet]

My grandma did that too

[pliant karma]

lights on too, leaves the room and forgets to turn them off. Only do I see them a couple hours later

[dreamy rose]

yeah that is it

[teal estuary]

im on SDGE EV-TOU-5, it was like $500 this month because they just pumped the overnight rate 50%, and my server exists

[pliant karma]

oh and when we run the house heater sometimes she forgets to close the door so it's just cold

[wraith sonnet]

I got blamed once for the power bill bruh so high then I showed how much my system drew under full load

[teal estuary]

used 13% less power, got a 12% higher bill, wtf SDGE

[dreamy rose]

i want the setup to not fail to start when i run it through Live USB. i would love this for a WTG and Linux USB

[wraith sonnet]

I don't do RGB

[pliant karma]

but hey for me I count for a little portion on top of appliances, the rest is my grandparents being forgetful but that comes with age so I can't blame them.

[teal estuary]

what does it draw?

afaik, mine will use in excess of 900W under full load

[wraith sonnet]

At the time 105 watts

[teal estuary]

ahh, so, basically nothing for a gaming machine

[dreamy rose]

mine should use only 70 max

RGB, the enemy of battery life.

[wraith sonnet]

It was a 1030 and a 1500x

[polar fern]

My whole setup at max use would be like 600 watts. 🤣

[teal estuary]

for the things like the heater, see if you can get ones that are on a timer, assuming they dont intend for it to be on 24/7

[pliant karma]

actual 89w for my remote pc idle which is nice. Most was 110. Now I tried using a 2015/16 dell server...that sucker was sipping 900w

[teal estuary]

oh i fucking wish my server was that low

[pliant karma]

no valid

you can keep room warm

[teal estuary]

my everything is at about 750w right now

server accounts for, 250w of that

[dreamy rose]

35 Watt GPU roasts me in the summer.

[teal estuary]

unless you bought it soon after launch, it was probably cheap

my brother had an 8350 in a secondary machine, because cheap

[velvet marsh]

Mine's about 1000w lol

[timid meadow]

My server pulls like 250w at max load, my gaming rig pulls closer to 450. Combined idle is under 100 though so thats nice

[velvet marsh]

Well the 1000w is just my main machine

[teal estuary]

what is your full setup at full load, even if thats probably not going to ever actually happen

[polar fern]

My Lenovo can only warm the room while folding@home but it’s just 225 watt psu.

[velvet marsh]

1800w?

It's on 2 breakers lol

[timid meadow]

Nice

[teal estuary]

two breakers?

just use one big one

[polar fern]

Incentive? Tf

[teal estuary]

i know my one server has tripped OPP when i had it trying to use just one PSU, so thats at least 750W DC for the one

[timid meadow]

Its letting your pc do volunteer work essentially

[polar fern]

It’s distributed compute work units for protein folding simulation, but they can do other metrics for other molecular stuff

Stressing?

[teal estuary]

i mean, if my option was to use electric restive heat, or do folding, id personally do folding

grab some older hardware, run folding on it, heat and compute, while keeping old hardware running longer before it becomes ewaste

[velvet marsh]

That's what I'm doing with my 6850k and my 670s

[polar fern]

The power supply is 225 watts.

[teal estuary]

yea, thats a good use for stuff like that

[timid meadow]

Not necessarily raising your bills overall though. Higher power cost may be worth the lower heating cost

[polar fern]

The only way I can heat the room it’s in is not via running software m8

[teal estuary]

670s are pushing it a bit for being even older than id mean, but the point applies

[velvet marsh]

Well only run it like a month out of the year lol due to it being too damn hot here

[teal estuary]

yea, i generally dont need extra heat myself

if building a machine for folding and heat, Mi25s are pretty cheap and put out a decent amount of both

$90/ea for a 300w card

[timid meadow]

"running pc hardware into thr ground" is a myth. Its meant to run 24/7. Keep the chip cool and your fine. Which means pushing heat out of the system, which is the goal anyway

[polar fern]

Imagine dumping on someone for running folding@home during a global pandemic where they’re using the system to look for treatments.

[timid meadow]

Which, again, are only bad if not maintained

[teal estuary]

id rather buy a well taken care of crypto card than the average gaming card

less heat cycling less physical strain, probably cooled better too

[timid meadow]

How much quicker though? You wont notice 5% at the end of a 10 year lifespan

[polar fern]

The processor only runs at 75% load anyways. “Stressing the silicon” JFC. 🤦‍♂️

[teal estuary]

many things besides the silicon are liable to die first, and mining being constant and efficiency first helps multiple of those

[timid meadow]

Yes. I did. I run it on my main system. R5 3600 and gtx 1070

[teal estuary]

also, fun thing, miners have incentive to undervolt and underclock their cards, to lower power draw, not overvolt and overclock like gamers

[polar fern]

I use an APU, not cpu/gpu. even thermals that way on the die

[teal estuary]

except for when it helped with COVID

which has effected the entire world

[timid meadow]

The 700+ hours of redcross work i did in high school would also be pointless to you in this context then. Which is your right, but asinine to me

[cyan mural]

who here has an MSI or asus motherboard

[teal estuary]

you dont know that for sure

[polar fern]

They still going on about silicon stress?

[timid meadow]

Homie they had borderlands players doing games to help with research, if that helped, letting my pc be used by smart people definitely will

[teal estuary]

the bystander effect is also one hell of a thing

[finite cloud]

Pretty much everyone here

[cyan mural]

Do you have one ?

[finite cloud]

What’s your issue?

[teal estuary]

even if one doesnt matter, if everyone thinks that, suddenly noone is volunteering their spare compute, and that will make a difference

[teal estuary]

i have multiple of both

[polar fern]

All of my desktops have custom oem boards

[timid meadow]

There seems to be a common denominator here....

[cyan mural]

Do you have some random "software " called nahimic a volute installed by force or running open in task manager?

[finite cloud]

No…I don’t think so

[graceful burrow]

Bro #1027757333117415424 what part of be patient is lost

Welp rip me i guess

[finite cloud]

I’m not the only person in the world with an asus motherboard just ask somewhere else

[cyan mural]

Bro im just asking if its a normal thing for Asus mb im not asking for help

[timid meadow]

Idk ive got an assrock but mobos are mobos just ask your question and someone can probably help even if they dont own one

[polar fern]

So

[teal estuary]

no, its not

[polar fern]

Earlier today I contacted Logitech customer support

[cyan mural]

I did hopefully ill be able to solve it fingers crossed

[polar fern]

My lovely keyboard is sadly not lasting. 😑

[teal estuary]

assrock = buttstone*

[timid meadow]

Assrock= stupid motherboard with terrible rgb controls and a pointless built in usb c port with no front usb c port to make up for it

[cyan mural]

Had many unecessary softwares installed because of Asus lol every day i discover a New one

[polar fern]

Space bar is uneven & one side often doesn’t register press

[unkempt widget]

what are yall doing

[polar fern]

They do not currently have the model i own in stock has ceased production

[teal estuary]

i corrected asrock to assrock

as a joke

[cyan mural]

[unkempt widget]

why are we assaulting asrock

[timid meadow]

I thought you were helping him saying he forgot an s in his joke. Made sense to me 🤷‍♀️

[teal estuary]

because it was typoed here ^

[teal estuary]

i was

[polar fern]

[cyan mural]

What about gigabyte

[teal estuary]

but asrock isn't a buttstone, assrock is though

[unkempt widget]

[unkempt widget]

geforce rx 6969 xt

[unkempt widget]

nah, that's my offbrand psu

[polar fern]

They set us up the bomb?

[unkempt widget]

bomb has been planted

[polar fern]

All yoir psu are belong to us

[teal estuary]

i was only half joking, because of gigabytes bomb PSUs, if you aren't aware, see GN's videos

[unkempt widget]

not all of their psus are bombs
their aorus ones are slightly less bombs

[teal estuary]

slightly less implies that they still are

if you have one of them that is fine though, then ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[polar fern]

Only the jiggabite psu has the certified flux capacitor

[unkempt widget]

the gigabyte ap-pm is a tier

aorus ap-gm is b tier

[sweet jetty]

I don't think bomb is a good way to describe a psu 😭

[cyan mural]

I had a gigabomb it was running fine somehow

[unkempt widget]

g750h and p650b is a c tier

so is p-gm 1000w

[teal estuary]

its a good descriptor for some of gigabytes PSUs

[polar fern]

Temporary power supply unit.

[sweet jetty]

boom

[timid meadow]

Its not, that's the point lmao

[unkempt widget]

tbh every company has a bomb

[polar fern]

how temporary? only one way to find out

[teal estuary]

their OCP/OPP didnt work correctly, and it would explode

[unkempt widget]

only the aorus p-gm is slightly safe

the non-aorus is just striaght up f tier

[teal estuary]

yea, but those usually aren't forced on people wanting to buy a high end GPU that might trip its OPP

[polar fern]

Bbl gonna chill with this cat

[timid meadow]

Yea part of the issue was newegg bundling the bomb psus with expensive hard to get gpus

[unkempt widget]

even seasonic has a bomb

evga, corsair, cooler master, thermaltake, etc.

[teal estuary]

yes, but when was the last time you were forced to buy a seasonic PSU to get the GPU you want?

[unkempt widget]

thermaltake...
more like thermalfake AHAHAH

Maybe just wash it off with a hose

[trim robin]

do you have one without a tank? if not there compressd air cans that can work, if you dont want one yea a straw or even just noramly blowing on it will do

[wind pulsar]

Hair dryers and straws are a horrible idea

Hair dryers have a chance to soften solder and blowing through a straw will build up moisture from your breath, which can drip onto your PCB

Aka you literally spit on the PCB, disgusting

lots of hair dryers do have a way to not use the heating

Hmm, I guess I'll try funnel on cold mode

[idle skiff]

I'm gonna post something and I want you to tell me if the two colors mess w your eyes on your display or if it really depends on how your screen displays the color

[graceful burrow]

nah bruh i already got a headache wtf

[idle skiff]

Do these two colors clash with your eyes on your displays

[timid meadow]

Looks like a scuffed vr filter. I kinda like it

[trim robin]

[graceful burrow]

Discord compression isn't doing any favors

[trim robin]

[graceful burrow]

[idle skiff]

My bad man I apologize

[timid meadow]

Theres your answer tho. Some of us see it, some of us are repulsed, and others are like its just a pic bro

Is air pressure needed for laptop cleaning, really tho?

I mean would not wet cotton sticks do the trick? Rubbing alcohol or boiled water tho?

[idle skiff]

Emphasis on the 🇱

[trim robin]

well no pressure is not neeeded its just one of the ways, cotten sticks can be bad as the coteen can come off and what not, isopropal (rubbing alc) yes, higher % means it will evpatate faster and better but may damage some plastics, watter it just no. but trothbrushes can be used in place of cotten swaps but as long as you're careful the swaps can be fine (also id wet them in the iso)

[heady flicker]

I'm not entirely sure what that image is suppose to be

if I stare into for a while, the red kind of changes its color to a slight purple

but if I refocus it's "red"

[trim robin]

. forgot to reply to this for the one thing

[heady flicker]

for all I know if I take away all the blue the "red" might just be purple

[elder abyss]

animate this to destroy my head even further

[summer folio]

Ohh, great idea with using a toothbrush for cleaning!! Had not thought of that before, thanks!

[heady flicker]

it's not that the colours clash, it's more like I'm not sure what I'm looking at

[idle skiff]

I've considered getting into animations for these

[idle skiff]

It's basically abstract at this point, started as a picture of a sweater on a coat hanger and eventually became whatever it is

That seems to be the formula for these awful pictures I do

Take picture
Make it abstract beyond recognition
Find the perfect color combo to ruin your eyesight

There is no better response than "my eyes hurt, I don't want to look at this"

Because I feel the same way

do be sure not to be very hard with it as you dont want to scrape anything off but as long toy you dont press very hard shold be fine

So far it’s pretty nice. It’s basically just Kubuntu but still, nice

[slow thorn]

It can probably still run e sports titles at 50 frames per second at the very least considering how well it ran games from its own generation

[graceful burrow]

No particular reason

[neon mesa]

Because the MSI one looks a lot more barebone from the outside

Especially compared to the B450 one is a strix

Depends on the product

[full fossil]

i have afew apple products

recently got a sony xm5 and idk what to do with the boxes

idk if i should throw them cause i usually just keep em

[polar fern]

Speaking of which I do not have the original box for a secondhand Apple keyboard & I’m wondering how where to find the identifying serial number

[full fossil]

i even have like some of the original packaging untouched on the cables n shit

[timid meadow]

I keep em till out of warrantee usually. Then from there it depends on the condition of the product and if im planning on reselling

[full fossil]

i still have my iphone 5c and its packaging lmao

[polar fern]

5c 👍

[full fossil]

thing is i have a few stuff i don’t necessarily need and i can sell but idk if i should

Apple packaging is very unique, so I tend to keep those boxes

i bought an ipad pro last year with the pencil and magic keyboard however it somehow got bent and now it cant use the keyboard

[full fossil]

costs as much to fix as a new one

[wanton glade]

how u doin bro

[full fossil]

so i plan on getting a new ipad pro and passing it to my mom for her to do her accounting stuff because her old laptop died

[polar fern]

You… you bent an iPad?

yeah that's Apple in a nutshell

[full fossil]

i dont wanna get into details

[wanton glade]

you got kids ?

[full fossil]

not me

[wanton glade]

ok

[full fossil]

i am too young for kids

so too bad but i gotta bare the cost

so idk what to do with the old bent one now

[polar fern]

So they used it to pry open a car door

[full fossil]

nope

if a like 6 year old kid can somehow bend it…

[dreamy rose]

Age is a number that Determines life or death. just depends how sick you are in the head.

[wanton glade]

yes indeed

it also determines wether or not you going to prison

[full fossil]

to be fair we are all the same age because our molecules are the same age

[polar fern]

They must have used it as some sort of scaffolding between two chairs or something

[wanton glade]

no they're not

my Condolences

[wanton glade]

Rest in peace

[dreamy rose]

Dishwasher? wtf is that?

[wanton glade]

you gonna get beat up to death by your mom/wife/whatev

[polar fern]

The automatic dishwasher where you put dishes in the rack and it washes them and you take them out and put them away after it’s done

[wanton glade]

it's the thing you use to clean the thermal paste off your cpu

[polar fern]

No, I just should’ve been asleep by now which really is going to suck for me tomorrow

[full fossil]

anyways damn i recently got the xm5s are they are amazing

[wanton glade]

i dont follow. i do it by hand

I still have to take out the trash and recycling, it’s below freezing out

[wanton glade]

it's obv a joke

do u not use your shirt

[polar fern]

Dishwashers use far less water and they make the dishes sanitary

[wanton glade]

nah, I usually use a knife

[full fossil]

damn no wonder

well now i got a stained shirt and shit cpu temps

[wanton glade]

yes. but when you live alone and got like 3 dishes, it ain't worth it

[wanton glade]

[dreamy rose]

i use Thermal paste as moisturizer. god i Dry up too easy.

[full fossil]

speaking of which can i put my computer in my dishwasher to clean the dust

[graceful burrow]

Yeah it'll clean the dust

[wanton glade]

yeah sure

[full fossil]

think itll clean more then dust

[polar fern]

I don’t have three dishes… there is probably three loads worth of dishes to do, but only about half of that is for the dishwasher. The rest have to be hand washed because the finish on them will get ruined in the dishwasher.

[wanton glade]

yeah, it'll clean your existence, and your house's

your house gona go kaboom

[wanton glade]

[unkempt widget]

i got discord because of the pandemic lmao

[polar fern]

I have been in here on and off since the very beginning

[manic torrent]

... everything is because of the pandemic

[unkempt widget]

i think discord has really benefitted off the pandemic

[manic torrent]

Had it not happened, every single person here would have a drastically different life

[unkempt widget]

because before 2020 discord was seen as a gamer social media that was relatively niche

[dreamy rose]

i was here way before the pandemic.

[polar fern]

I think that people have benefited from something like discord

[unkempt widget]

and now, discord rebranded to not just being gamery

[dreamy rose]

Close to 4 years now. Gawd damn

[polar fern]

Discord is for everyone (except jerkholes) and that’s awesome

[unkempt widget]

i think some people missed the memo tbh

[neon mesa]

discord is very good

[polar fern]

Yes

[mild elm]

I miss dank memer

[polar fern]

Not only is discord very good it’s shockingly amazing and it’s free for most people

[unkempt widget]

holy shit they fell off

[unkempt widget]

at first it was fun, but then inflation hit

[neon mesa]

thanks to a feature people ironically hate 🙄
nitro

[mild elm]

I still have my 800 day daily streak

[unkempt widget]

they first got rid of their moderation thing which i found quite annoying because i loved using the randomban

[polar fern]

Okay, I better get stuff done now

[unkempt widget]

fun fact: i one time got myself banned doing the randomban

[polar fern]

You all be good

[dreamy rose]

i think i've used Discord every day since april 6th 2019

[mild elm]

I have 6969420 pink plastic bits

[unkempt widget]

and then they got rid of pls commands

[mild elm]

But they used to be so much better

[neon mesa]

since december 2017

[unkempt widget]

and then they got rid of nsfw
that was just 1984 man

[timid meadow]

Real shit tho. Oddly enough i went from not having a job pre covid to having one when most people lost theirs. If the security companies werent having a surge in hiring i wouldn't have the job i have now.

[neon mesa]

they really went the tumblr route

[unkempt widget]

💀

of was about to do the same thing but then the ceo realized that was a bad idea

[neon mesa]

one thing that often kills your platform is removing nsfw
if you don't want nsfw you should always do it from the start

removing it later will just piss people off often times

tumblr is one of the big example

[unkempt widget]

the value went down by like 100x or smth

[neon mesa]

if tumblr never allow nsfw in the first place it might be fine

but one thing people hate is taking away what people used to have

like youtube's 4k being behind premium

if it has always been behind premium from the start people wouldn't even mind to be honest

[unkempt widget]

that will be annoying
i'm definitely pro 4k not being behind premium

[dreamy rose]

imagine needing NSFW to be happy with a platform

[unkempt widget]

because i have adblocker

[unkempt widget]

i mean look at what people used tumblr back then tbh

[manic torrent]

I am absolutely pro 4k being behind premium

[neon mesa]

it's more of a "don't take feature people already have"

[manic torrent]

Because suck it, peasants

[unkempt widget]

:(

[manic torrent]

Yes this is much more of a controversial decision

[neon mesa]

unless you are too big to fail like youtube it won't end well

[dreamy rose]

the "Didnt draw it right go end it" kinda morons? those people can Fuck off to the Depths of hell

[timid meadow]

I feel like certain channels should be premium 4k. Like make it the default but let certain creators give it free if they want. But give them a cut to encourage not making it free. I feel like super informational channels like Slo Mo guys might be hindered by 4k having a paywall

[dreamy rose]

i'd say that 4K there is kinda important if you can handle it

[neon mesa]

4K should definitely be paid

4K is most expensive to handle while only used by a very small fraction

and if you can play 4k you can afford premium tbh

if you look at steam survey most still at 1080p or 1440p

[timid meadow]

A small yet increasing fraction. 4k displays are cheap nowadays

[dreamy rose]

you wont get anything from it but you can play 4K on a lower res screen

[neon mesa]

cheap is relative
on the extreme tech upgrade vid the latest one
when jake said that displays are cheap nowaday then said it's only 350 bucks i was like

a lot of people literally have PCs that cost around 500

[unkempt widget]

i mean tbh monitors are expensive

[neon mesa]

let alone have display that costs 350

[unkempt widget]

it makes sense

[timid meadow]

Because cheap is relative to other products in its category. My 4k display costs me 100 a month for 5 months then i own it. Like 300 left to pay on it

[dreamy rose]

now if AMD could release those APUs.

[unkempt widget]

can't wait for the 7040s

[manic torrent]

You actually will, because 4k has a higher bitrate

[neon mesa]

you don't count the price from the monthly payment

that 100 bucks a month is still a 500 bucks display

that is pricy

[unkempt widget]

it's only 8k though

[neon mesa]

most people are literally still at 1080p
4K streaming is expensive while only used for a small fraction of users who can afford to pay for 4k anyway as they own 500 bucks displays

[graceful burrow]

1440p >

[manic torrent]

Stuff cost money

[dreamy rose]

i hope i can get something with it, maybe the high end Radeon DGPUS too

[neon mesa]

apple's retina is a perfect word
you don't need 4k if you can't see it

[timid meadow]

Every display was a 500 display at one point. The display will last me multiple years. So yes i break down the cost per month if im paying per month. I'm happy working 8-10 hours a month for 5 months to own it

[dreamy rose]

i think 27 inch may just be the perfect size

[manic torrent]

27 inch is the perfect side display

Next to a 48" 4k

[neon mesa]

500 is pricy....
when most people literally only own a 1650/1060 system that costs 500 or lower to make

it might be cheap for you but it sure as hell not for most people

[timid meadow]

Investments are investments. Different people have different priorities. I own a 1070 and r5 3600. A similar budget system to what your describing.

[dreamy rose]

i'm using a 24 inch TV. i'm happy. could be bigger, but i dont need it

[manic torrent]

The screen in the middle I paid $2000 for

[neon mesa]

and most people disagree with you as soo little people own 4k

[manic torrent]

The screens on the side were $170 each

[neon mesa]

so why spend so much on 4k streaming when not many even use it

and people who do use it can afford premium anyway

[dreamy rose]

i sometimes put a Video on 4K for the fuck of it

[neon mesa]

4k streaming costs the most while bringing the most little revenue

i want linus to make a poll on youtube video resolution and see how many regularly watch in 4k

[dusty rune]

i watch in 4k to make youtube pay for their crimes

[timid meadow]

You make alot of assumptions about what people can afford. All i said was the market is growing, because its getting cheaper. Cheap has a different meaning for everyone. I say the tv is relatively cheap, because i bike to work instead of having vehicle maintenance for example

[manic torrent]

Thing is, I have a 4k screen. 90% of the time I am watching not full screen.

[timid meadow]

Same

[manic torrent]

My mother in law's 4k 55" TV was $500 aud

[neon mesa]

a good definition of cheap is what most can afford and use and clearly 1080p is

pretty much everyone can agree 100 bucks is cheap for a display, but not many at 500

[timid meadow]

Most people would have bought a smaller 4k tv. Not an enthusiast 55"

[dusty rune]

4k tvs are pretty cheap

im curious what my tvs hdr rating is..

[dusty rune]

cause monster hunter looked really good

[dreamy rose]

none

[neon mesa]

yeahhh 4k isn't even in this list
not even 1440p

[dusty rune]

it should have

[neon mesa]

more people use the ancient 768p resolution

because clearly these are a magnitude cheaper

than the "cheap" 500 bucks display

[dreamy rose]

390x844?

[dusty rune]

my friend plays csgo in 768p 4:3 and i dont understand why

[neon mesa]

sounds like CRT resolution ngl

[timid meadow]

Is that all from steam? 4k video and 4k games are 2 entirely different things

[neon mesa]

the website is not even steam

it's global from all usage

[dreamy rose]

you look it up it says iPhone

[neon mesa]

oh old iphone

[light condor]

I will never stop using a 720i screen for something so long as I can easily obtain one for cheap

[dreamy rose]

no. its coming up with 11, 12 and 13s

[neon mesa]

i doubt iphone 11 have that low of a resolution

[dusty rune]

iphone 11 mini maybe?

[dreamy rose]

thats just what Googles shoing.

[neon mesa]

uhh wha

ah that's in points not pixels

[wanton glade]

Yeah i know right, extremely annoying (that guy is me, you dumbass)

[dreamy rose]

Based

[unkempt widget]

he knows lmao

[dusty rune]

why did u change ur name

[unkempt widget]

no that's one of the supported resolutions

[light condor]

I don't know who either you are but fuck you

[dusty rune]

uhh i mean
boo sharpeye that guy is ass!

[wanton glade]

i know lmao

[wanton glade]

bread

[neon mesa]

multiple sources confirm the very low usage of 4k

[timid meadow]

So what are you even arguing here? I agreed it should be behind a paywall, with the option for creators to make it free. I also didnt say it was in heavy use yet, just that its growing as prices go down. You arent the sole arbiter of the definition of cheap, and alot more people consider it cheap, because its significantly cheaper then it has been over the last few years

[neon mesa]

in steam survey more people use 768p than 4k bruh

[unkempt widget]

no that's am

[timid meadow]

Not with the iphone part wrong reply but you get what i mean

[dusty rune]

not surprising

[wanton glade]

changed it for some reasons, decided to dedicate the other one for "WORK", don't worry about it

[unkempt widget]

wtf and i thought 4k was mainstream

[wanton glade]

goofy ahh mf

[neon mesa]

it isn't
only some elitist think it's cheap enough to be

[dusty rune]

theres more poor people than ones with a lot of disposable income

[timid meadow]

Steam is irrelevant to youtubes choices. Yes, wayyy less people game in 4k. Not gaming in 4k doesn't mean you dont own that screen

[unkempt widget]

yes i know

[neon mesa]

soooo dismissing the first data entirely?

the steam survey is only to add extra perspective

[timid meadow]

I said multiple times its increasing. Your table isnt an argument because its stating its not big yet. I never said it was big

[unkempt widget]

i play on 1080p but luckily i can play on 4k because of dlss
man i love dlss i don't understand why people hate it

[neon mesa]

steam survey indicate a 0.05 increase
in gs statcounter it isn't even enough to be on the table

[timid meadow]

The only way you could argue here is by providing data saying sales on 4k displays went down

[wispy marsh]

wassup people

[neon mesa]

just because some youtuber or something say it's becoming mainsteam doesn't mean it is
the data says otherwise

idk about you but a point zero five increase is basically zero

[wispy marsh]

hey

fellow weeb

[wanton glade]

'sup bro how you doin

[wispy marsh]

i want a burger

[wanton glade]

me too

[dreamy rose]

65% use 1080P monitors. as Steam Says

[wanton glade]

rip

[wispy marsh]

my brother plays on 1080p

[wanton glade]

I play on 1440P ITS GOOD

[wispy marsh]

it's a 27" 1080p 240hz IPS hdr400 display

[wanton glade]

based

27" 1080p yikes

[wispy marsh]

it gets the job done

[wanton glade]

😬

true

[dreamy rose]

i'm Apart of the.. 9% Using 1 Gig of VRAM?

[wanton glade]

[wispy marsh]

oh, i have three

[wanton glade]

[dreamy rose]
