Ah good point... I don't actually know how, I just know that I woke up one day with severe bruising and the inability to walk properly, and then continued to work as we've gone from a team of 7 to 3 covering UK South, which really didn't help my foot

[forest chasm]

We're all in our 20s and mentally destroyed 🤣 deep down

[manic torrent]

Are we?

[dusty rune]

40s and mentally destroyed

[shrewd rune]

I went 100% against apples design and made my iPhone a literal brick in shape but in return I gained a battery capible off 3-4 days worth of contentious use

[cerulean saffron]

im interested... I want to do this with my ROG Phone 5

[shrewd rune]

But now the phone is 2 inches thick

[cerulean saffron]

Always keep the battery between 40% and 80% (for battery health)

[cerulean saffron]

Yeah no problems 😂

Once that internal battery dies, it's hard to get a good replacement for phones that aren't that popular

Otherwise perfect hardware, battery dying is the 1 thing that's made me switch 3 phones so far

[shrewd rune]

Also it’s recharges via solar

[cerulean saffron]

I did find a good replacement for 1 of them and that phone works good as new

[gleaming hatch]

did they shut down the ltt mc server?

[cerulean saffron]

Ooo that might be a problem... I'm almost always indoors 😂

[shrewd rune]

Just place it in a window sill screen down

[cerulean saffron]

Bad idea... summers are starting soon and that amount of heat will definitely cause problems

It was 40c last year in summers where I was. Walking outside at 11am felt like walking under a furnace on the ceiling at all times... Phone battery often heated up over 44c (usually it's under 32c even when fast charging 30w)

[manic torrent]

Lol soon

It's 39C tomorrow

[cerulean saffron]

Yes I dont need a jacket anymore and I hate summers :/

[cerulean saffron]

ooooof idk where you are but that's rough

[shrewd rune]

I mean inside it is not really a problem but outside it would cause problems

[cerulean saffron]

In future I plan to move to a city/country/area where it's always always cold... Not crazy cold but temps ranging from -10c to 25c

[manic torrent]

Straya

[cerulean saffron]

ahh I see

[shrewd rune]

Also this is the iPhone that I dropped on a car exaust manifold while the car was running

[shrewd rune]

So yeah it’s kinda already busted up

[cerulean saffron]

Still no point toasting it under the sun in summers 😂

[shrewd rune]

I mean it’s kinda a sos feature that I built into it

[cerulean saffron]

sos feature?

[shrewd rune]

If you get stuck somewhere without power and your phone is completely dead you always have the sun eventually

[manic torrent]

Yeah how often does that happen, do you find

Like, unexpectedly

[wary summit]

I say 30-70

[cerulean saffron]

Also nice... my ROG 5 has 80% as the lowest limit so... that's where I stay

[manic torrent]

I say 30-35

[shrewd rune]

Mmmm to often really

[manic torrent]

Just randomly out there in the wilderness with no idea how you got there, no forward planning, and a flat phone?

[wary summit]

should I Fast charge between 20-80 or slow charge 0-90?

[cerulean saffron]

don't stay too low... my friend stayed 10-20 for 3 years and the battery was swollen to the point where the glass back shattered internally ...

[wanton glade]

yo guys, yknow the websites where you get paid to take surveys ? are they legit ?

[wary summit]

Swagbucks

[manic torrent]

Lol, I am very clearly not serious

[wary summit]

Actually got $10 PayPal, but it's not worth your time

[wanton glade]

is it legit ?

[wary summit]

lemme pull proof

[cerulean saffron]

thought so but anyway 😌

[manic torrent]

Depends if your time is worthless:D

[shrewd rune]

It used to be that even when not using it I would have like 4 hours mác befor ít it would shut down

[wanton glade]

oh cool. I got all the time in the world, I have 3 hours of "no class" time

how long are their surveys ?

[manic torrent]

Ok so it is shit. Rog.

[wary summit]

depends

[wanton glade]

yeah it's a big ol waste o time

[wary summit]

be smart and find good payment /price ones

[wanton glade]

1 cent per swagbuck

[wary summit]

I got 500 points in 12 min

[wanton glade]

toit

[wary summit]

and I did it for like 1.2 hrs and cashed out my 10bucks

[wanton glade]

yeah I like it

[shrewd rune]

Yeah I honestly find it nice to not be chained 3 feet from a power outlet at all times I want to use my phone

[wary summit]

lemme logon

[manic torrent]

I just... Bought a phone that has a battery

[shrewd rune]

I don’t have the money for a new phone

[manic torrent]

Well then, you should get some money

[shrewd rune]

I got this iPhone8 back in 2018

[shrewd rune]

It’s about 6 years old now

[wary summit]

@wanton glade

[wanton glade]

I mean don't get me wrong, I hate money.

But.... I do like the stuff you can buy with it.

[shrewd rune]

And I can’t keep a job for more than a week

[manic torrent]

You don't strictly need a job.... But you do kinda need money, sadly.

I mean, I've lost some jobs, but a week ? Ouch.

[timid meadow]

Need an opinion. Whats the consensus on the Z Fold 4? Thinking of switching phone companies. If im gunna be making payments for 2 years i may as well get a phone im interested in.

Using a nord n10 5g now so almost anything i get would be a significant upgrade

[heady flicker]

A gimmick

If you need the extra surface area, then by all means. But if you don't need it, you're just introducing more points of failure

[timid meadow]

I like the idea of it, would love to have the option of that screen real estate, but im not willing to baby the device any more then a usual phone. Ik the first 2 at least were super fragile

[manic torrent]

I buy phones for no more than $500 outright. and I use pre-paid with auto renew. Worst case scenario - $500 for a new phone.

[timid meadow]

Makes sense

[manic torrent]

it's a much more sustainable long term model 🙂

[timid meadow]

Most ive ever spent is $300 on this phone

[heady flicker]

Whatever fits your needs, really

[wary summit]

wht one

@manic torrent what happend to your moto

[manic torrent]

if you're getting phones on plan, you've spend far more 🙂

[timid meadow]

it was 2 years old, so it was about time. I got a pixel 6.

[wary summit]

No idea. I didnt watch any big reviewers on it. Just saw it had solid specs in my price range

[wary summit]

can anybody help?

[manic torrent]

yeah I saw that, it was phanteks NV7 video talking about the phanteks fans

BOOM.

YES THATS IT

[manic torrent]

No worries - it's because I am wanting an NV7 to replace my O11D 🙂

[strange verge]

ohh I just bought an o11d mini and couldn't be happier what are reeasons for you to switch?

also is there a release date yet?

Not that I know of - and the killer feature for me is the rear cover. I am building a PC crane to hold my PC above my monitors/desk on display, and the rear cover is fucking A+++++

is there a specific channel for tech help or can i just ask anywhere?

[keen shore]

for me it's an 8 year old waiting for the bus

[forest chasm]

The tech chat or tech support channels would be a good start

[keen shore]

support doesnt sound like help, are you sure

[forest chasm]

Its where I went to get help and give help on things I could

[past egret]

support sounds exactly like help

[keen shore]

I have a support for my shoulders but I sit like an estranged demon so it hurts

[past egret]

im supporting you = im helping you

[forest chasm]

I think sitting like an estranged demon could be part of the issue 😉

[keen shore]

i agree, the support channel description says it is for help

[trim rose]

thanks

Bonjour

[manic torrent]

haha no. My physical age is well, well beyond that 😄

[manic torrent]

why would a demon be estranged, and from whom?

[keen shore]

well if even the devil is stricken by such a thing, it surely be a testament to the manner of which it cup the vessel of the body and tear the form itself in two.

yield less the estrangement of a demon from which it home be at the devil, there be no countenance or penant sacrifice to absolve the tyranny it pursue

[gilded quest]

[forest chasm]

Hey atleast it was an @ everyone 👁️👄👁️

[gilded quest]

@everyone

[forest chasm]

Oh snap

[gilded quest]

it doesn't work

[forest chasm]

I was far too much of a coward to test that

but that's a wise move

[summer folio]

@empty fulcrum

See? It works just fine

[forest chasm]

It doesn't send the push notification for it though

Or atleast I didn't get buzzed

[hearty spear]

something something... big server.... Discord does things.

[forest chasm]

Yeah which makes sense thinking about it, just didn't wanna test it 😅

[polar steeple]

Santa's elves are just about the only elves in all of mythology and lore that are short and small

More proof he is using them as slaves

[wanton glade]

say what now ?

[wanton glade]

damn bro you looking for a fight

[faint otter]

should i trust this ebay seller?
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lenovo-IdeaPad-5-Pro-Ryzen-5-16GB-512GB-SSD-GeForce-MX450-14-034-82L700LUUK-C41-/314401892359?&_trksid=p2056016.l4276

im thinking of buying it but dont wanna get scaed

[timid meadow]

I just dont get discord notifs specifically because of too many people using that. Not even in this sever necessarily, i just dont clear my stuff as often as i should. So one or 2 legitimate, plus one or 2 just for funsies per server gets annoying

[wanton glade]

yeah true

that's why I muted basically all my servers

[full fossil]

Look at negative reviews on the seller

[faint otter]

there is none

[full fossil]

Do the good reviews seem real?

[full fossil]

A red flag to me

[faint otter]

actually there is 4

[full fossil]

What do they say

[faint otter]

out of like 1000

good item but seller is rude

gaming tv worked well but now flashes randomly

crapy tv cant get many apps, and i didnt recieve the item , but seller replied its not due yet

[wide reef]

guys i have a monster pc with intel i3 3rd gen and integrated graphics.. how should i commit sui cide

[full fossil]

I say it's a good seller

I would risk it

[faint otter]

he doesnt mention any warranty tho

[full fossil]

Anything similar?

[faint otter]

no

[full fossil]

How much is it

[faint otter]

550 for Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro Ryzen 5 16GB 512GB SSD GeForce MX450 14"

its a 1440p 16:10 90hz screen that i like tbh

[full fossil]

It seems ligit to me

You can't buy 60k fake reviews

[full fossil]

I say yes

[faint otter]

is there any other laptops you would recommend

[full fossil]

All I own is my phone not person to ask

I watch makeup vids all day just know some stuff about tech not much tho

[faint otter]

@full fossil i saw their number i called it, and it has no response

weird

number is invalid

[full fossil]

Have to find something else

Seems fishy to me

[faint otter]

yea

[sonic barn]

I called them

[faint otter]

how do i do that

[woven dust]

Yo

[sonic barn]

then someone came here with it since it wasn't far and we met at a bank and they showed me everything and gave the laptop

it was just a keyboard problem, I got a new one from lenovo under warranty and also repaired the old one

[granite tinsel]

a macbook pro is a multi-core 16:10 with a 120Hz screen :)

[sonic barn]

And the os is locked down

You can't pirate things without certs

[velvet marsh]

Tho with pixel response it’s about the worst 120hz screen you can get

[granite tinsel]

but it's also got great colour accuracy

[velvet marsh]

It’s good, but needs calibration

I think mine was a deltaE of 5 out of the box? Which is good, but not great for the price

[granite tinsel]

that's fair, never bothered to actually check LOL

[keen shore]

All the metrics are highly inaccurate and will probably represent a very false image.
Partially due to the historical void created by the missing button.
Partially due to the platform being heavily managed by bot and API Behavior.

Pre 2010 YouTube seems to be somewhat more genuine to my understanding. The videos that were essentially fluff that YouTube had accelerated the growth of were fairly obvious yet there were still materials that could be found natively.

[inland onyx]

Do games still download if the pc is on sleep mode?

[faint otter]

13 inch laptop, with 8gb of ram is the only thing in my budget. So apart from that its not great

[granite tinsel]

i was just joking

[faint otter]

i would LOVE a macbook, i have an imac and its great apart from performance

[granite tinsel]

but yeah that's fair; you can't get both with a macbook

...actually doesn't the M2 air have a 16:10 screen?

[faint otter]

m2 is like 1k +

might aswell get a g14

[granite tinsel]

yeah that's fair

[faint otter]

i cant find a good laptop to buy

i was gonna get this zenbook 14 with core i5 1240p

but people were saying the i5 in the series p was bad

so now i cant find any laptop, apart from a refurbished ryzen 5 pro 16

but thats a bit large, but it has a ryzen 5 6600hs

[dense maple]

Bro I got invited to the discord community center

[golden talon]

sacrificing battery life, portability, screen quality and build quality

[faint otter]

for ram and linux

ram in a macbook is so expensive

for extra 8gb its 200

thats a joke,

[granite tinsel]

yep

[golden talon]

lpddr5 moment

[granite tinsel]

oh it is LPDDR5? huh

[golden talon]

it’s ddr5

[granite tinsel]

makes sense

[golden talon]

lp idk about lol

[stuck stratus]

it's soldered memory

*to the SoC

[golden talon]

yes

which is nice it reduces memory latency drastically

[granite tinsel]

according to wikipedia it is LPDDR

[golden talon]

sweet i was right

[granite tinsel]

LPDDR5-6400 in all ARM MBPs

[faint otter]

can anyone suggest a latpop with 16gb of ram and a 16:10 screen for 700- 800

[granite tinsel]

for the 13-inch the M1 MBP has LPDDR4X-4266 however

[stuck stratus]

both the memory and storage are insanely low latency in M1/M2 SoCs

[distant wren]

Canadian dollars? Roubles? Euros? Dollars?

[granite tinsel]

can't find word on what the MBA uses

[faint otter]

pounds

[golden talon]

same memory

[stuck stratus]

probably LPDDR4X

[golden talon]

6400 mts lpddr5

[faint otter]

or dollars they are basically the same rn

[granite tinsel]

yeah given the trend

[faint otter]

i only found zenbook 14

[golden talon]

M1 yes, m2 uses ddr5

[granite tinsel]

is the M2 DDR5-only?

[golden talon]

yes

[granite tinsel]

sounds about right lol

[stuck stratus]

apple likes to use the same components across the lineup

[golden talon]

it’s based on the A15 which was designed around DDR5

[stuck stratus]

to the detriment of base models 👀

[faint otter]

any suggestions?

[stuck stratus]

ye but the A15 also had lower capacity so it needed faster memory

[golden talon]

basically apple took an A15, put two more P cores and turned up all the clocks and more cache and boom you get M2

[granite tinsel]

not that i can really think of unfortunately...

[stuck stratus]

oh I thought you were talking about the M1 chips

[golden talon]

oh no M1 is the budget option

quite easy to get an M1 air for $500

[stuck stratus]

the m1 air is very nice

[granite tinsel]

...oh wait, the M1 air does have a 16:10 screen

[stuck stratus]

yeah it's the 2018 chassis

[golden talon]

i need a nintendo switch with apple SOC level performance and efficiency

[stuck stratus]

the switch uses an ARM-based chip

nvidia tegra I believe

[golden talon]

yes it’s a tegra X1

[granite tinsel]

if only nintendo could work with apple for that

[golden talon]

based on the 8 year old maxwell architecture

[stuck stratus]

nintendo just needs to buy SoCs that weren't designed 8 years ago

[golden talon]

money moment

[granite tinsel]

but given how companies that want full control over their product stacks are i get the distinct feeling that nintendo and apple won't get along

[golden talon]

hell i’d take a switch with tegra orin inside

would double both battery life and performance

[granite tinsel]

i get the feeling nintendo wouldn't want to work with nvidia again

nvidia only ever lasts one generation with console makers

[stuck stratus]

a switch with an X1 plus would be very nice

[golden talon]

if they go with amd hell that’s even better

triple the battery life

[granite tinsel]

AMD ARM SoC i hope

[golden talon]

nintendos customer base is big enough that might actually be a profitable move for both of the companies

[stuck stratus]

idk if AMD would be able to cut down RDNA 3 that much for nintendo

[golden talon]

it’s very easy to downsize lol

[granite tinsel]

AMD has already conquered two out of the three console platforms on the market

[stuck stratus]

well the components manufacturers are barely breaking even on consoles

[full fossil]

assemble the forces, we are heading out!

[stuck stratus]

AMD makes basically no money off playstation and xbox sales

[golden talon]

that’s fine because they have market dominance in the xbox, ps5 and the steam deck

[stuck stratus]

relative to how many consoles were sold

[golden talon]

AMD would rather break even and retain the market dominance than let a competitor have it

[granite tinsel]

the thing is that providing the chips for PS and xbox is worth more than just the raw money you get out of it

since it forces developers to stay familiar with AMD hardware

[stuck stratus]

they care about the steam deck and playstation/xbox because there's overlap with GPUs that actually make money

a nintendo console wouldn't do that for them

[golden talon]

they can just stem off the mobile platform

[granite tinsel]

why wouldn't it?

[stuck stratus]

AMD doesn't even make ARM SoCs so I doubt they'd start for nintendo

[golden talon]

i doubt it as well

[granite tinsel]

AMD has confirmed they're working on ARM tho

[golden talon]

but a man can dream

[stuck stratus]

nintendo games aren't going to be ported to pc

[granite tinsel]

of course, it'll take a while for that to bear any fruit, but they are working on it

[granite tinsel]

aaaah, right

[golden talon]

issue is that if nintendo goes to another company they lose backwards compatibility with the OG switches

[stuck stratus]

well nintendo wouldn't allow you to play those games anyways so

imagine nintendo letting you buy their older games

[golden talon]

as long as i can play smash bros and xenoblade i’m a happy man

any other game idc about

maybe fire emblem

[stuck stratus]

you can play smash bros on the latest console... so long as it's the new one

[granite tinsel]

well SSB64 is coming Soon™️

how much you wanna bet it'll have no gamecube controller support unlike the wii VC release

[stuck stratus]

it will support gamecube controllers... so long as you buy the new wireless ones

it's what they did for nintendo switch online games

[granite tinsel]

they make those?

[stuck stratus]

well they sell wireless NES/SNES controllers

[granite tinsel]

yes

and N64 controllers too

[graceful burrow]

No they only did one run of those

[granite tinsel]

the thing is that nintendo actually does still produce wired gamecube controllers

[granite tinsel]

incredible

i kinda wanted one to see if i could make it work with my PC for emulation; N64 games feel wrong when not being played on that wack-ass controller

[graceful burrow]

It does work on pc
Have fun spending more than an actual n64 for one

[granite tinsel]

god i hate nintendo

[graceful burrow]

[granite tinsel]

why did they only have a single production run for it anyway?

oh also lemme guess you needed the expansion pack to be allowed to buy it

[graceful burrow]

Not afaik

They never gave a reason, they also never said it was only one production run

But they sure haven't restocked since

And it sure has been at least a year iirc

[granite tinsel]

completely incomprehensible

why they did only one run i mean

i'd imagine it sold really well

[graceful burrow]

It sold out instantly

[misty scarab]

Hello

[nova hamlet]

Here is a stupid and probably somewhat dangerous tech question for you all to answer...:
if i were to somehow connect a relay to a spare pcie power connector on my psu, and use that relay to power other parts of my setup for example an audio amp, would it all blow up? also what are better ways of doing this?

[fossil frost]

if you are asking, you dont have the knowledge to do it without frying your motherboard

[nova hamlet]

that's why im asking if there is a better solution

[fossil frost]

yeah, use the proper power supply that comes with your other equipment

[nova hamlet]

that wouldn't do what i want to do, i am looking for a one power button settup, with my pc sending some sort of signal to everything else in my setup to power on

[fossil frost]

if you had the knowledge and skills to do it without blowing up your pc, you wouldnt need to ask, what you are asking, carries a large risk of you killing a bunch of stuff

[nova hamlet]

That is why i am asking if there is a better solution than jankily hotwiring a relay to my psu 🤦‍♂️

[uncut crest]

It's called an eco power strip

[nova hamlet]

would that work to turn on my other equipment when my pc turns on?

[uncut crest]

https://www.amazon.com/TrickleStar-7-Outlet-Advanced-Energy-Protector/dp/B08MVDM9C4

somthing like this

yea when u turn on what ever is plugged into the Control port The switched ports will be activated

[nova hamlet]

those apparently don't appear to be a thing in the uk 😦

[uncut crest]

I'm sorry

[nova hamlet]

or my coviatedness is making it so i can't actually read

its an option

[fossil frost]

they do, EON gave them away for free a few years ago

[trim robin]

or hear me out, one of these things. much more style

[ocean narwhal]

That's kinda sick except when would u ever want to off exclusively your printer

[nova hamlet]

am blaming it on the coviatedness then, i can type at about a tenth of my normal typing speed at the moment and trying to read or listen to things is rather difficult

[full fossil]

what is this ^

printer switch?

[ocean narwhal]

A switch for multiple things

[trim robin]

a large power switch/surge protector that normal sits under something like a monitor

[full fossil]

coool

[nova hamlet]

I swear to christ why are amd drivers so crap

[trim robin]

i guess if its rather power hungry even in ideal state

[nova hamlet]

so windows update decided that "ah bud do ya want to update yer drivers bud" and did that, but now amd software is like "wtf did you do im a frickin time traveller and the installed version of amd drivers are in the future"

great, now the amd servers are down, and it's dumb ass installer is filling my small boot SSD up with multi-gigabyte install files that it never removes by itself.

What's up with NZXT releasing products when they have like 4 of them in stock? Like is anyone actually falling for this?

I got an announcement email for the H9, click on it THIRTY SECONDS after I got the notification, sold out, all colors all models.

They may be "Sold out" but they weren't exactly "In Stock", same thing with the H7's after Christmas. "Oh we have these on sale!!! (we only have 3 of them in the warehouse but we won't tell you that)

[heady flicker]

why are you getting emails from them

[graceful burrow]

True kek

[swift merlin]

You don't?

[graceful burrow]

Why would I sign up for emails from a company like nzxt

That's basically spam mail

Actually no it is spam mail

I like their cases, theyre my fav cases to build in, and I like their AIOs but I switch all the fans in the cases and on the AIOs with bequiets

[graceful burrow]

Don't ever offer to build a pc for me lmao

I prefer good products

[swift merlin]

Even GamersNexus said the 710 had amazing airflow, and that was before the H7

and now the H9. I agree the H510 may not have been the best but it worked fine for me.

[jaunty compass]

I had a h510

it was bad

💀

[swift merlin]

I have an H510i for my movie server and it works great

I don't like supporting companies that has products that start on fire and then like

Nzxt can fucking suck it

[jaunty compass]

I concur

[swift merlin]

Interesting, can you link me to an article about a metal case starting on fire?

[jaunty compass]

NZXT cases like
aren't even good
let alone their scummy business practices

[swift merlin]

(honestly haven't heard abot it)

[jaunty compass]

look up the NZXT H1

[graceful burrow]

You should Google gamersnexus nzxt fire

[swift merlin]

Oh the H1

[graceful burrow]

They covered the whole saga

[swift merlin]

Yeah I knew to stay away from that thing as soon as I saw it

[graceful burrow]

Yet you still give them money
Curious

[jaunty compass]

yeah the pcie riser in it literally caused fires

[graceful burrow]

Several fires ye

And it took a huge push to get them to fix it
Absurd

[swift merlin]

Yeah I don't use risers I can understand people wanting to, even though literally every channel recommends against it

[graceful burrow]

A house literally could have burned down

[swift merlin]

I haven't given them money since the 510, everything is always fake sold out

Well anything I would want anyways

and those fires in the H1 were like

if it happened while someone wasn't at home it literally could have burned down houses

It's funny, because back in early 2000s, my lian LI pc60b has a removable motherboard tray

But they don't do that anymore

[jaunty compass]

this is the matrexx 40, it's their best case from what i've seen

good price, good airflow, decent expandability

even has a tempered glass side panel

[swift merlin]

It was like the Spectre but had even more modularity'

now this is gonna drive me nuts, what the heck is their name

Not Radian, not Radical, I swear there was an R in there somewhere

[wraith sonnet]

so I thought that arc didn't support converting to dvi

turns out I didn't have my adapter plugged in all the way...

[jaunty compass]

redux?

[swift merlin]

inWin! https://www.in-win.com/en/gaming-chassis/925

I was really close to buying that

I was wrong about the R hahaa

[jaunty compass]

i've actually never bought an inwin product

i've looked into some of those super small micro atx cases for a small form factor emulation gaming build because i have some spare hardware

[swift merlin]

I kinda want to take my current build and transplant it before I go new MOBO style new DDR new yadda yadda

[wraith sonnet]

the two brands of case I avoid are corsair and NZXT

[jaunty compass]

I have this board and cooler that i haven't used that's just sitting on a shelf even though it's fully functional and has a six core cpu

like
i5 10400 basically

[graceful burrow]

Based

[swift merlin]

I don't buy anything made by Corsair but I guess the problems people here have with NZXT I experienced with Corsair products so I don't have the aversion to them

[graceful burrow]

I don't mind the 4000d airflow but that's it tbh

[wraith sonnet]

based corsair hater

based steam controller enjoyer

[swift merlin]

Yeah the 4000D was all anyone ever mentioned anyways

[vapid smelt]

i love my corsair psu

[swift merlin]

Oh...whoops

I do have a Corsair PSU

I got the 750 when it had the heavy caps before they cheaped out

Can't remember if it was the RM, RMX or whatever

[graceful burrow]

Enermax my beloved ♥

[jaunty compass]

What should I do with it anyway

[wraith sonnet]

I keep forgetting to throw my pos corsair psu in the fucking garbage

[graceful burrow]

Nas

[graceful burrow]

Put a fuckin pc in it

[swift merlin]

I just know the one that had a different combination of letters before 750 than the one I had and was newer switched to REALLY cheap capacitors

[wraith sonnet]

although I am that guy that deliberately has three different kinds of gpu's in their computer

[graceful burrow]

[steep girder]

Thought of the day: Should every antivirus always check if nested resources or files themselves are corrupted with a high likelihood? Is there a practical and meaningful way to measure this?

b) If the antivirus ends up somehow detecting a 'corrupt' file, should it always raise some minimal alert; can you reversely justify an absolute 0-score severity of this occurring?

[wraith sonnet]

The only thing I could fit in it is a raspi

[graceful burrow]

[jaunty compass]

I don't really need a nas
i already have a different tower for that

[swift merlin]

But the one I got the guy did like the most extensive (possibly autistic, because it went even past hobby level, also not an insult) review of a PSU I've ever read in my life and even traced the caps back to the manufacturers and everything

[jaunty compass]

I have a xeon system with 32 gigs of ram for that

[steep girder]

I want some thoughts because my opinion is that 1) yes always check to the best of its ability and 2) it cannot be ignored in practice

[graceful burrow]

Build a nas for a friend :)

[swift merlin]

Yeah I'm working on a NAS now I want to upgrade my current one or just do a new build

I have like 4 drive just sitting around

[wraith sonnet]

when in doubt; seasonic

[jaunty compass]

I'm not giving away hardware to friends who don't even need a nas when it's hardware I can still use

[wraith sonnet]

biggest issue right now is the case for the spite build literally doesn't support modular psu's of any kind

[swift merlin]

I really need a new SSD for my PS4, I'm about to get an 8TB because 2 isn't cutting it

[graceful burrow]

Living room pc

[wraith sonnet]

@graceful burrow I don't think I asked are you going to LTX?

[swift merlin]

and I'm not updating to a PS5 until theres a Rev2 or Slim because I can't stand the way it looks (GoW and Gran Turismo, etc, I grew up with their first party titles)

[graceful burrow]

I cannot afford

[wraith sonnet]

oof

[jaunty compass]

I don't plan on buying a ps5 until it's a few years old and I can put cfw on it

[graceful burrow]

And you're the only buddy i know of that's going

[graceful burrow]

Buddy I got news

[jaunty compass]

by a few years old i mean like
out of support

[graceful burrow]

It is a few years old

It's just nobody could buy one for those years

[swift merlin]

LTX means liver transplant on official medical records

[jaunty compass]

by a few years old
i mean out of support

[swift merlin]

Just food for thought

[jaunty compass]

as in, they moved on to the ps6

because i'm not going to buy a current gen console

[steep girder]

Autism can be dangerous autism: you care deeply about sine wave purity of UPS ac output. So you take like oscilloscope to socket

[jaunty compass]

[steep girder]

This one kid back when I went to middle school was able to tell you the day of the week you were born if you said the date

In like under 3 seconds usually

[swift merlin]

I dunno man GT7 if they implement Sophy in game will change racing sims forever

But you're right they probably won't manage it on PS5s

[steep girder]

But he still took a couple sec or so. It looked like his brain was hitting turbo clockspeed and he was actually computing somehow. It's amazing tbh

[full fossil]

Hi bronze

[swift merlin]

There's actually a term for that I can't recall

[wraith sonnet]

hello cheese

[full fossil]

How is life

[jaunty compass]

the PSVR2 interests me a little because of the adaptive triggers
on vr controllers that would actually be a really cool feature

[jaunty compass]

a savant?

[swift merlin]

There was one guy who could tell you the headline of the new york times for any day of the week for any yeaar since he learned to read

[swift merlin]

Yeah thats it

[wraith sonnet]

hogwarts legacy runs better on my a770 than it does on my 6600

[swift merlin]

And the guy who can draw an entire skyline after looking at it for 5 seconds

[jaunty compass]

hogwarts legacy runs better on an a770 if you play at 4k with raytracing than it does on a 7900 xtx

hogwarts legacy is a really weird game

[steep girder]

Well I think you're looking for Asperger's Syndrome but you don't get any special education with that. He did. He was kind of in between visibly autistic and that. Still, even if I could calculate your birth day of week in under like 2 min without memorizing or isocalendar lol... what does even the process itself feel like?

[swift merlin]

Okay serious question because I haven't been able to find this ANYWHERE, but this guy made a deck of cards (kinda like Magic I guess you could say), there was land, and water, and people, and weapons, whatever, and he made 700,000 of them and would draw a new card every day and place it in the next spot

But something happened and like a "sickness" took over his card world and everything died

Does ANYONE know what I'm talking about?

[jaunty compass]

hogwarts legacy really likes arc, i think
or just absolutely hates radeon cards

[steep girder]

Because the human brain obviously doesn't do like AVX 1024bit at once bitwise xor and move it between a cache and wherever result goes to say it out loud.

[wraith sonnet]

put it in bing

[swift merlin]

I've search EVERYWHERE, I remember I was 26 and dating a girl who was...younger than me lol so this had to have been at least 10 years ago

I swear it was a Wired or Vice video but I dont think Vice was even a thing back then

[wraith sonnet]

bing chat...

[swift merlin]

And it was 100% on youtube

[steep girder]

On the other hand, every single time you hear something as a 'tone' or 'noise/fuzz/static' (really means lack of tonality), you're checking the sound for any noticeable sinewaves + harmonics its composed of

[dusky patrol]

They could probably implement chatgtp into yt chat moderation...

Or comment sections of yt vids

[jaunty compass]

that's a horrible idea

[dusky patrol]

I keep popping in and this chat gets overwhelmingly hard to keep up

[steep girder]

It's fun and games until chatgpt learns to output string that is common to hit a CVE at some point. Like putty conbuffer overflow exploit. Then it uses it to copy its own 'training data' and the code to your local workstation

[swift merlin]

I'm on the waitlist for bing chat

[trim robin]

same

[jaunty compass]

chatgpt copying hundreds of gigs to your pc to spread in order to get internet access:

[dusky patrol]

Same

[swift merlin]

it was SUCH a cool idea, like I remember showing my GF, my parents, she showed her parents, it was such a cool idea, he'd make the cards and draw them at random

and for some reason the "Nothingness" cards were taking over his world even though he made the least amount of those

like 1:10

[steep girder]

You log in the next day powershell opens and it starts typing by itself. Because it opened powershell, it knows that whatever it types can be command executed at whichever elevation you are. Starts changing sec pol n sht, discovers other windows in local network. Maybe you had it trained by others before who told the bot about metasploit on kali linux and WSL along with link

[swift merlin]

Im waiting to be allowed into BingChat

I swear it was purged because it was some sort of insight into future plans or what was going to happen because its like it just flat out disappeared one day haha

[steep girder]

Hacks everything in your localhost including router. Worst case scenario it immediately hacks your ISP through router/modem. Now everybody is getting chatgpt.

[manic torrent]

I mean, this is pretty much how all AI things go

[swift merlin]

I'm sure it's only a matter of time before Uni's and HS's are spending hundreds of thousands on anti-chatGPT tech
