[dreamy rose]

i5 2450m

[ebon socket]

and the pc got a RX 5700 lol

[ebon socket]

wait, ur tellin me my GPU is almost on par with a RTX 2070S?

[old cairn]

Any good recording app? Besides Outplayed or OBS

[void bough]

Fraps 🤪

[night heron]

obs>>>>

[old cairn]

OG stuff,I dig that

[void bough]

yep

[old cairn]

I used outplayed for a while but god damn it sucked to capture Overwatch or Call of duty MW2 2022

Powerpoint.mp4

[random jolt]

sorta weird that the 3060ti uses the GA103 and 3070ti uses the GA104

[manic torrent]

why do you not want OBS

[wispy marsh]

Radeon Relive

[rugged bridge]

@manic torrent
yay

[dreamy rose]

remind me why these exist again?

[pulsar violet]

Which do you want more in your case?

Negative or positive pressure?

Positive, gotcha

[wraith sonnet]

well I switched from all three gpu manufacturers in one system to having arc as my primary gpu and a 1030 for dx9 titles that still struggle like borderlands 2

[covert nova]

My condolences.

[wraith sonnet]

why? it's good? I took out a 6600 for this

[snow thorn]

Can I get some opinions on my setup? I just posted it in #1019713714968088586

[manic torrent]

oh, I have lots of opinions

[snow thorn]

What are they

[covert nova]

Let me rephrase.
"My condolences. 😏 /s"

[simple sedge]

can someone help me with something (this is not for support i actually just need someone to do me a favour quickly)

[covert nova]

I forgot nobody could hear me say it sarcastically out loud before I typed it.

[wraith sonnet]

my opinion is that corsair as a whole should be abandoned by the industry at large

[covert nova]

Bruh.

I have that same opinion, except Logitech.

(Looks at everything he owns Corsair and Elgato) yup.

[wraith sonnet]

Logitech just makes weird stuff, they aren't actively hurting the hardware industry like scuf did

[covert nova]

Okay. First off, in my experience Logitech build quality is terrible.

[rugged bridge]

they exists so you dont ahve to have an actual display plugged in

but the computer thinks there is one plugged in

[dreamy rose]

Nvidia

[snow thorn]

?

[dreamy rose]

they exist because of Nvidia

[manic torrent]

.. but I'm doing some work rn 🙂

[covert nova]

What made me swear off Logitech were two instances: A mouse that I replaced 3 times with the same right-click/mousewheel collapse issue, and a headset that I replaced twice with the hinge breaking in the exact same spot, with a friend who had the exact same problem as well.

Second: What's up with Corsair, then?

[rugged bridge]

nvidia doesnt make them

and the problem isnt nvidia specific
as in i need it for amd and intel as well

[dreamy rose]

clearly, they dont want you passing your GPU to a VM

[covert nova]

OOOH Third issue with Logitech, it seems like Blue microphones have gone down in quality since being purchased by Logitech as well.

[rugged bridge]

yeah, but they have other uses as well, such as making a server think there is a display plugged in so i can vnc into it without needing an actual display plugged in lol

[dreamy rose]

you dont need it. but you have to buy their expensive shit to get that

[wispy marsh]

I need help

How do I get through three weeks of WAN show without dozing off

[gentle slate]

Don't watch ltt for 3 weeks

[wispy marsh]

Then I'd have six weeks

[wraith sonnet]

bing is infuriating sometimes

[covert nova]

watch it at 2x, so then it's more like one and a half weeks

[ocean narwhal]

Wait a few months until the wan show gets 9 hours long, then just do regular sleep thru the show

Also, just dont watch until you either get timestamps or watch clips

[wraith sonnet]

or get youtube premium and download the show and listen to it like a normal podcast

[wispy marsh]

I do have premium, i like to just listen to it when doing things

[covert nova]

Or don't, 🏴‍☠️, and listen to it like a normal podcast.

[wraith sonnet]

I was more trying to say that if it's truly artificial inteligence it needs to form it's own opinion.

[vital niche]

just stop using it tho

ChatGPT doesnt know how to think

and if you believe it, then I doubt u do either

[wraith sonnet]

this is more why I want more neutral discussion, because I can't get answers to stuff like this with right wing personalities at all

[vital niche]

It thinks with words @wraith sonnet it doesnt actually know what you are sayinhg

can you tell a computer what a banana is.. yes but you also need to tell it what a banana can do

and that is based on words only, never context

that is why AI can never help you and it's a fool's errand

[wraith root]

Bro

[wraith sonnet]

alright, I thought funk was cool, I just wanted to talk about that

[vital niche]

wow

way to gaslight

[wraith sonnet]

if it's actually problematic I'll stop talking about it

[vital niche]

It's as annoying as DALL-E

ppl who post those are braindead

just make actual art like a real boy

[covert nova]

Yo! I just checked out your setup. Serious question: What did you use to 3D model that? I've been accepting lately that I'm going to have to build my own desk because they don't make them like I like anymore.

[wraith root]

Hear me out… what if they are not a artist

True

[wraith sonnet]

I can see where the potential for Dall-e can be but as of right now it has definite flaws

[covert nova]

Doesn't bother me. Probably fine as long as you're not stating a preferential stance on politics.

[wraith sonnet]

mostly the shutterstock thing but whatever

[vital niche]

it just devalues human work

is what im saying

[snow thorn]

I used tinkercad

[vital niche]

becauuse our economy is no longer based in authenticity and humility, it's based on crap politics based on equal opportunity

[wraith sonnet]

restrictions breed creativity, dall-e is just a new tool with VERY different restrictions

[vital niche]

and then it creates pansies who think all they need to do is use FaceApp to not feel bad about themselves

[wraith sonnet]

tf is faceapp

[ocean narwhal]

mfw it perfectly writes sorting algorithms

[vital niche]

thing women use

causes body dysmorphia a lot

[covert nova]

I think I'd still rather use an artist that 100% understands the project at hand for most things.

[vital niche]

because of the dumb standards of beauty and remember the black ppl not appearing in face detection lool

[covert nova]

And that can draw hands.

[vital niche]

YES

[wraith root]

I ready to see 1885 asap

[covert nova]

AI art.

[wraith sonnet]

does it still have issues with indians? both kinds btw

[vital niche]

just yeah any nonwhite skin color

bc the ppl who wrote it were WHITE

or at least, tested it

well it's not politics it's tech

tech literally failed to detect skin color

because of biases at the software level

[wraith sonnet]

funk is beyond confused simply by blocking me it's turned into I'm racist

[vital niche]

how dont u get that bc the ppl who use it CANNOT CODE

[wraith root]

I mean go ahead….

[vital niche]

ppl who use it CANNOT write a better program

[wraith root]

I want to see that number to be higher tbh

[wraith sonnet]

thinking about it, 18k people blocked... the server would look drastically different to funk

[jaunty compass]

[covert nova]

I always consider it a grand failing if I have to block people.

[weary moon]

That solves racism

[wraith root]

Bro I don’t understand how you are that mad at people opinions online. What are you like irl?

[covert nova]

I don't abide the [blocked user message] paradigm.

[wraith sonnet]

I'm just gonna sit here and watch because this is morbidly interesting to watch

[weary moon]

Lol I am not biting on that dude

[timid meadow]

Blocking on discord does very little. Hiding a message behind another click isnt a block lol

[wraith root]

[jaunty compass]

I tried out Kirby and the forgotten land on steam deck because my brother got a copy

It's pretty pog, runs well

[vital niche]

oh,yeah javascript is great

[wraith root]

Bruh how dare you say it looks alright

Imma block you

[jaunty compass]

Skill issue tbh

That's fair

[covert nova]

Not much seems to be.

[vital niche]

not even 2d platformers??

[jaunty compass]

Average jrpg player

[wraith sonnet]

I just can't handle this anymore this is just bad to watch

[wraith root]

[timid meadow]

Your one of those people in the Wallpaper Engine reviews that need a bonk arent you lmao

[vital niche]

oh shit I can figure out who blocked me by who I can react to

hahha

[covert nova]

@wraith sonnet Alternative conversation: What's wrong with Corsair? Simply that they bought Scuf?

[wraith root]

Ooo

[wraith sonnet]

I have a LOOOOONG list

[vital niche]

now does it work AFTER I post the emoji @wraith root

[wraith root]

Yep

Holy

[vital niche]

wait, what

[timid meadow]

Tryina see cool animated wallpapers and theres a million 10 year olds whos review consist of nothing other then "omg boooobies"

[tough spruce]

Ok but like. Why https://www.macrumors.com/2023/02/21/sonos-era-300-100-marketing-images/

[vital niche]

@wraith root I was wondering why I couldn't react and yeah I was like hmm

[tough spruce]

$450 for a Sonos HomePod is… steep

[covert nova]

I did do some minor research into Scuf/Corsair, looks like Scuf owns a lot of patents pre-purchase. Probably a good portion of their valuation.

[vital niche]

well, it is white (calm down, like the apple logo)

[tough spruce]

I mean, the issue is that they don’t really have a reason to compete

[jaunty compass]

I'm honestly really impressed the deck can do full res switch emulation every time I try it

[tough spruce]

They’re a totally different market

[wraith sonnet]

racist hiring practices, ram is super prone to failure, the entirety of elgato, the fact that there modular pinout for sata coinidentally matches MOLEX for 99% of other psu's, ram being labeled as the entire capacity of a kit rather than of a single DIMM

[wraith root]

I like black version more

[stray epoch]

the wind in LA right now is very strong and keeps messing with my home power, my computer was on along with my monitors when the first dip in voltage occurred, the monitor’s powered off and the lights dimmed. my pc is off now but i was reading an article and it was saying that the PSU capacitors have enough energy to keep the voltage stable for a very short amount of time, is that true?

[tough spruce]

Yeah, not smart speakers

And as we saw on LTT TikTok, unless they match HomePods microphones, useless

[stray epoch]

i have a corsair rm850x goldplus rated if that matters

[jaunty compass]

I'll probably buy a used copy of tears of the kingdom when it comes out and emulate it on deck

[tough spruce]

This is fucking impressive

[wraith sonnet]

Patent trolling, the obscenely offensive lack of care in the pump with a display that doesn't have a software tweak for if you install it upside down because right side up makes cable management a nightmare

[tough spruce]

It’s honestly the only reason I have a HomePod

HomePod = apple google home

He whispers across a whole room to the point where you can’t even hear him on video and the speaker still picks it up

[wraith sonnet]

god if funk unblocked me this entire conversation would make sense just

[jaunty compass]

I wish the deck had thunderbolt support so you could use an egpu

[wraith sonnet]

🙂 it works

[jaunty compass]

Being able to hook it up to a 6600 XT or something would be awesome

[tough spruce]

Ruins like the entire point thoigh

[jaunty compass]

How

[wraith sonnet]

at least with a thunderbolt hub it works

[jaunty compass]

How would being able to dock it and run games at higher settings ruin the point

[wraith sonnet]

I don't know if egpu's work

[tough spruce]

Also it would be cpu bottlenecked so fast

[jaunty compass]

They don't, it doesn't support thunderbolt

[tough spruce]

portability

[jaunty compass]

Nah, it wouldn't really

[wraith sonnet]

someone just tell funk to unblock me to make this entire convo make sense

[tough spruce]

Deck is cpu bottlenecked in beamng as it is

[jaunty compass]

Okay beamNG player

[wintry dagger]

yes, it rlly would my 3900x struggles to play beamng much less a steam deck

[tough spruce]

It runs horizon zero dawn better then beam

[jaunty compass]

In beamNG, sure; but that's a game I don't give a single fuck about at all

[tough spruce]

Beam is also a game that is arguably more gpu heavy

[jaunty compass]

You're a liar lol

[covert nova]

About the only thing I can agree with remotely is the ram. I recently got a set of Vengeance ram, and for some reason the RGB on one of the sticks has the RGB upside down. So when I've got an effect for light going down the dimms, it would go up the last one. But I fixed it by just making a custom light thing for it and it's fine and uniform now.

[jaunty compass]

The one thing I know about beam is that it's notoriously CPU intensive

[tough spruce]

I’m not saying it’s light, I’m not saying it’s insanely cpu heavy either

[wintry dagger]

tbf beamng runs like shit bc current cpus struggle to calculate the amount of crap beam has to, but the deck runs every game besides beam on low-med settings at 55fps

[tough spruce]

But it’s definitely more gpu heavy

[wraith sonnet]

this is beyond infuriating

[wintry dagger]

my dad has it, he loves his

[jaunty compass]

Every other account disagrees
Anyway

Being able to dock the deck would be really cool

[covert nova]

That's a deceptive sample.

[jaunty compass]

With like an egpu

[tough spruce]

The big issue is that they have chromium UIs

Physics calculation isn’t bad aslong as your not doing stupid shit

[wintry dagger]

it very much isnt, my 3900x goes to 60% util and my 3070 goes to 65% util at max settings low-ish dynamic reflections

[jaunty compass]

So I could play my library with an egpu on my 1440p monitor and be able to easily take the PC with me

[vapid smelt]

hey thats me

[wraith sonnet]

you can look into it more, I don't have enough patience for it and I need to sleep

[jaunty compass]

I don't have so much stuff for my deck
At least not in the case

[wraith sonnet]

coop wtf go to bed

[vapid smelt]

i work at 2pm

[jaunty compass]

@vapid smelt buy a grip case or something though

The deck's plastic is super slippery

[wintry dagger]

only mouse ever to be less ergonomic than the magic mouse

[jaunty compass]

Disturbingly slippery on tables

[vapid smelt]

the new case has deck stand i use

[covert nova]

Wait, what's infuriating? I thought you were implying those were all examples of someone being confused about a conversation

[jaunty compass]

I have a silicone grip case for mine

[wintry dagger]

speaking of consoles my pokemon nintendo switch oled comes on the 24th

[wraith sonnet]

no, it's all funk saying "what"

[jaunty compass]

Honestly

The OLED is an awful purchase if you ask me

[wraith sonnet]

because blocking 1800 people will make the server completely different

[jaunty compass]

Especially if you already have a switch

[wintry dagger]

I have a switch and ive been using the hell out of it daily for 4 years and it rlly shows and my bday happens to be on the 24th so it works out

[jaunty compass]

If you don't I can see how you could possibly justify it, but if you have a normal switch it's just a horrible buy considering you only get a benefit if you're in handheld mode

[wraith sonnet]

coop do you know how to make the switch able to rip games? mine has the right serial and is unpatched

[jaunty compass]

And even then it's just because you have a better panel

[covert nova]

I mean, you're right, that's infuriating to have someone completely disconnected from the conversation and then being audibly (or textually) confused. But that's not quite what's demonstrated in most of the sample.

[tough spruce]

5800x, 3080ti

[jaunty compass]

Why are you asking coop 💀

[vapid smelt]

ltt has a video on that

[wraith sonnet]

I thought they deliberately avoided that part

[jaunty compass]

Back in my day
Reinx was a custom firmware that exists

It doesn't anymore💀

[wraith sonnet]

because he's somewhat local to me and owns a steam deck

[wintry dagger]

back in my day weqpoihuewq908hyewqp9u8hyew9quhpg9gehwquh9oeqwouhwqeouh;ewqohuhoueqw3huioqewhuoiweqouhewqouhqwehuoiqwehuoiqwe

[covert nova]

I can't post images, lol. I'm not trusted yet.

[jaunty compass]

Not how that works

[wintry dagger]

just send me the image in dms and ill send it here

[jaunty compass]

Reinx was a custom firmware for the switch that was arguably the best one but the development stopped at switch firmware 10.0

[tough spruce]

i mean it literally is able to simulate the game faster then it can actually be rendered

[wintry dagger]

thats also on god tier hardware dude

[tough spruce]

neutered 5800x is far from god tier

[wintry dagger]

ANY 5800x is god tier

[tough spruce]

id locked my to 4ghz so it makes 0 noise

i could easily let this run at 5.5ghz if i wanted to and like actually be god tier

but its far from cpu bottlenecked

[jaunty compass]

You're better off following the text guides online
Tinfoil can dump games tho, just so you know

[wintry dagger]

ironic.. this doesnt seem very productive at all

[jaunty compass]

The program called tinfoil on switch, you can install cart games to the system and dump installed games iirc

But still best to follow the guides online

[tough spruce]

gpu spends more time doing shit, literally gpu bottlenecked

[wintry dagger]

do 2nd gen switches work with the thingy

[jaunty compass]

No

[wintry dagger]

oof

nvm then

[jaunty compass]

You need a modchip for anything a switch from summer 2018 or after

[elfin jetty]

lol steam deck is everywhere, i love mine

[jaunty compass]

I mean

[wintry dagger]

I got mine oct 2019

[tough spruce]

id only buy a switch to rip games off of it

[jaunty compass]

Anything after summer 2018 you need a modchip

[covert nova]

I got a steam deck because I had a job that had me traveling. A lot. Then I lost the traveling job. :/

[wintry dagger]

nvm then im not doing any of that

[void bough]

awoooogaa

[jaunty compass]

They patched the rcm exploit in summer of 2018

[tough spruce]

honestly wouldnt be surprised if it closed from the car wash

[jaunty compass]

You're fucked, basically

Any switch manufactured after summer 2018 is modchip only

[tough spruce]

also going into drive while in reverse is usually fine on any car from the last 10 years

it wont actually shift the transmission until you stop

[wintry dagger]

but none of us even asked...

[snow thorn]

Any opinions? I’m always looking for feedback https://discord.com/channels/375436620578684930/1077818621675442267

[jaunty compass]

Especially a lite or oled

[covert nova]

Aquarium.

[jaunty compass]

My switch is from summer 2017, I replaced the battery a few months ago and swapped the shell for a clear one on the back

[wintry dagger]

off topic a bit- idk why ppl get the nsl its so cramped my hands physically dont fit on the switch and im not even a full grown adult

[covert nova]

That's the best I can do.

[snow thorn]

?

[tough spruce]

it actually does alot

[jaunty compass]

For kids and also it's $100 cheaper

[covert nova]

Naah, it's not my style of desk, but it's definitely nice. Good work on it.

[tough spruce]

capless gas fillers have to seal... literal gas

[jaunty compass]

And it's a lot smaller and more portable

[tough spruce]

like fumes

[jaunty compass]

Basically you buy it for your kids or if you never use docked mode

[wintry dagger]

yeah but when a 15 year old cant hold a console its an issue, I was gonna get a lite 2 years ago but yk

[jaunty compass]

Your hands aren't gonna get much bigger now that you're 15 most likely

[wintry dagger]

im 17 now, I was looking at a lite 2 years ago when I was 15

[jaunty compass]

Ah well they're definitely not getting any bigger now

Unless you gain weight

But that's more of fatter rather than like
Larger

[covert nova]

I like the big 2012 era desks with big cabinets and drawers and such. If I could make one from scratch, it'd probably be taller, tall enough to suspend a TV above the middle monitor, for playing my switch.

[wintry dagger]

considering my whole family didnt stop growing until their mid 20s I'd say i still have a bit of growth left

[jaunty compass]

Can't relate

[tough spruce]

switch just makes no sense to me, deck exists

[wintry dagger]

I fucking hate it when knobheads compare the switch to the deck

[tough spruce]

once you play 1st party games... it would be a paperweight

[jaunty compass]

The switch existed since 2017 and back then the only UMPC on the market was the GPD win 1

[wintry dagger]

they're 2 completely different markets

[jaunty compass]

Nintendo's fault for pricing the OLED so close to the base deck

[covert nova]

Nintendo, for better or for worse, has a very fierce first party market of games.

Sole reason to buy a Switch.

[wintry dagger]

shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[jaunty compass]

The switch is overpriced nowadays for what it is, that can't be argued against

[vapid smelt]

do we count the sony PSP as a umpc?

[jaunty compass]

It's Nintendo's fault for bringing the comparisons upon themselves for being so close to the price bracket

[covert nova]

I still don't buy any game for Switch that I could get for Steam, though.

[jaunty compass]

...no, we don't

It's not a UMPC

[tough spruce]

not even pricing... just? what they are as a fucking product?

if we consider what deck was literally designed todo, which is... play games

[jaunty compass]

If the switch OLED were $200 would you still say the same
I doubt you would

[tough spruce]

i would

[jaunty compass]

Then you're stupid

[wintry dagger]

I fucking hate you rn because you're right, because for 50 bucks get a deck, but at the same time nintendo made the switch for families and children to play party games, valve made the deck to literally be a pc thats the form factor of a switch- they're 2 completely different markets bc valve isnt marketing their console as a thing you throw to ur kids to shut them up in the car

[tough spruce]

price isnt the only thing to compare 2 products against eachother with?

[vapid smelt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYo02ZCAhSw

[tough spruce]

its not like theyre designed todo.... the same thing

[jaunty compass]

Eyy
I remember that video

[kind reef]

so do I

[covert nova]

Bruh, why would you have a 4-wheeler when you own a car? :/

[wintry dagger]

mmmmm sexy

[jaunty compass]

I watched it on the treadmill

[wintry dagger]

only person in the ltt dc that tries to stay in shape

[jaunty compass]

They're still very different products

[tough spruce]

@jaunty compass its like saying we shouldnt compare toyota avalon and the mercedes e-class purely because theyre priced different despite being the same subsection of car

[jaunty compass]

I just ate some raw cookie dough in the kitchen at 1 am
That's giving me too much credit

[tough spruce]

yes theyre priced different, but in terms of branding and market lineup, theyre the same

[jaunty compass]

I have no idea what this means lmaooo

[covert nova]

<- Kayaks and OneWheels regularly. At least when my collarbone isn't broken. >_>

He is not alone.

[jaunty compass]

I comprehend absolutely nothing when it comes to the car market so don't even bother

[wintry dagger]

im a car enthusiast and idk what the hell hes talking about so its def not just you

[jaunty compass]

[tough spruce]

he said switch and deck arent 2 products you can compare to eachother due to price

despite being designed for functionally the same thing

[covert nova]

That wasn't what was said.

[dreamy rose]

why own a car when you can have a life in the Web? entirely Devoid of a Physical world.

[covert nova]

Hard pass.

[jaunty compass]

Nice straw man lol

You definitely didn't read the first message

[covert nova]

Perhaps it's not a strawman

[wintry dagger]

but they're not the same, the switch isnt a pc meant to install windows 11

[covert nova]

Perhaps that's how he perceived the argument.

[dreamy rose]

WDYM? why wouldn't you live in a Digital existence where you can drive any car you choose?

[jaunty compass]

My original message was that Nintendo is asking for the deck to be compared to the oled because it's so close in price

[wintry dagger]

metaverse intensifies

[jaunty compass]

People wouldn't make the comparison near as often if the switch OLED were say $200

[tough spruce]

if the deck was designed to it wouldnt be a process that requires another computer entirely

[wintry dagger]

the rego switch shouldnt still exist and the oled should be 300 bucks

[jaunty compass]

You don't need another PC

[dreamy rose]

nah nah. not Zuccheads shit. the real shit. like being able to jump between games

[wintry dagger]

zucc pls fucc me

[jaunty compass]

Just use a USB C to A cable and flash a win 11 iso on the USB drive

[tough spruce]

then how are you expected to install the drivers with no internet

[jaunty compass]

Download them before hand

[dreamy rose]

your shit didnt come with a CD?

[wintry dagger]

hes gonna be grilling some meat in the metaverse

[tough spruce]

mf who has a cd drive in 2023

[covert nova]

I wouldn't. Regardless of what virtual reality you exist in, there is still one above that has to maintain that which is below. Therefore that reality only matters until the server gets unplugged. Games as a service is bad enough. Life as a service is worse.

[jaunty compass]

You know the steam deck's hardware information
Download the drivers before hand and put them on that flash drive with the windows iso flash and install them once you are in windows

You're just acting like you can't circumvent problems

[dreamy rose]

i mean its not in my computer right now since i'm converting to a HDD. but i still have a slot

[tough spruce]

if you have to circumvent an issue, its clearly not designed todo it

[wintry dagger]

omg so guys I need genuine help

[dreamy rose]

11 year old laptop with a smashed screen connected to a TV kinda things

[jaunty compass]

And yet every laptop in existence has that exact issue

[dreamy rose]

who said you were stuck in A server with A Service?

[tough spruce]

i mean you buy a brand new laptop, and all that shit.. comes installed already

because its... designed.... for windows

[timid meadow]

So do i but those professionals are expensive. Requires alot more school then us tech bros

[wintry dagger]

I have a psu but it only has 1 8 pin cpu, but my other psu has 2 8 pins but no pci-e power, how can I use 1 psu for the gpu and another for everything else

[dreamy rose]

what about laptops that come with Linux?

[tough spruce]

not designed... for windows

[jaunty compass]

Flash it to a windows version that didn't ship with it and tell me the same thing

then we're talking outside of what its designed todo

[dreamy rose]

Wrong

[jaunty compass]

So they don't intend for you to be able to put a new OS if you choose to

Weird that there's a boot menu then

[covert nova]

A digital existence of solitude in my car, spoiled by attaining everything I could possibly hope for with a whim and a line of code sounds terrible. Like, Human Instrumentality terrible.

[tough spruce]

ability to != intention

[jaunty compass]

Does anyone else feel like this conversation is a waste of time and is going nowhere

💀

[tough spruce]

because youre constantly coming up with stupid what ifs

[dreamy rose]

you don't get cheats. where's this logic coming from? you can do everything a normal player can but you are in the game environment itself instead of controlling a soul.

[pulsar violet]

@wintry dagger just realized this was the wrong server, my b

Thought I was in venting

[jaunty compass]

And you keep making arbitrary statements with no bearing on reality; a laptop is almost never designed around the operating system it ships with unless that's a selling point

[dreamy rose]

MacOS

[jaunty compass]

That's why I said almost never

[dreamy rose]

thats practically the only time

[jaunty compass]

Dell doesn't design their laptop around the fact it's running windows 11

Neither does HP

[tough spruce]

what the fuck.. yes they do?

[jaunty compass]

No they don't
They ship it with it and include drivers for the device to function

[tough spruce]

mf thats a god damn windows logo

its literally

DESIGNED with windows in mind

[dreamy rose]

a Ryzen 5000 series laptop can run both

[dreamy rose]

that KEY is designed with Windows in mind. not the laptop

[jaunty compass]

Oh wow a windows keycap
Such a major design point

[covert nova]

You're saying that I could drive any vehicle I want. Reasonably, that would imply that I wouldn't have to work for said vehicle. If this theoretical game were to include other people, it would necessarily have a server - one which could cease to exist, fall to disrepair, or be denied to you on a whim. Otherwise, we're talking single player. In all scenarios, it sounds like a terrible substitution for, and abdication of, the root existence of meatspace.

[tough spruce]

yes... actually. it is

lmao

[jaunty compass]

It's not like almost every keyboard not meant for a Mac has that exact key

oh wait

[pulsar violet]

This chat is more toxic than my non existent ex

[tough spruce]

wow look a laptop designed for linux

If I seem to keep getting confused by inferring things you're not saying, be more specific about what you're saying.

[pulsar violet]

“Get your FrameWork at the link below”

[jaunty compass]

They got windows on them permanently

[covert nova]

They actually have a 100% unmarked keyboard option.

Which seems kind of fun tbh.

[dreamy rose]

you don't understand what I'm saying at all. say you wanna play Forza right? you start from the start and progress like everyone else. you feel and control as if you are in the game yourself. you PLAY THE GAME from the perspective of who you're controlling. you're incapable of Dying, nor Cheating. things like the Consoles you come across are Emulators, and the ROMs are Cartridges and Discs for you. you're in the games and Spaces they set you in.

[finite cloud]

Just saw that on their site. Yeah that seems like a good time to use

[pulsar violet]

Why do people like GMK key caps? I heard they are popular

[timid meadow]

I feel like the disconnect between you 2 may be in it being an experience vs being life

[jaunty compass]

The FPGAs for those must be expensive as fuck

[timid meadow]

Rye seems to have jumped to a dystopia

But maybe im just a weirdo shoving my nose in shit

[dreamy rose]

Rye is looking at it like it would be a Service you'd pay for.

[covert nova]

So VR, sure. Fun? yes. But it's not a substitute for reality, with my own car and the freedom to drive to the beach.

[dreamy rose]

which is the DUMBEST way to be looking at it.

[wintry dagger]

Ok so I don’t need another psu apparently it just works with 1 8 pin

[timid meadow]

Text based conversation is complex and words are hard 🙂

[dreamy rose]

think VR but your Physical existence is actually in the game

[wintry dagger]

Idk how it works but it does

[dreamy rose]

or. Take Deep dive but there's no Real world body to deal with.

[covert nova]

I was asked why I'd want a car if I could have a VR car instead. That was the base prompt.

[weary moon]

I had the same confusion last time I picked up a new motherboard. The extra 4 are for pretty extreme OC options

[jaunty compass]

My man went for cyberpunk instead of the matrix 💀

[covert nova]

The problem is, I'd never want to actually live in a world with Magic, despite enjoying magic-using characters in the games I play, because then it would become mundane.

[dreamy rose]

no. i said you could drive ANYTHING you wanted in a world where you are able to walk into any game and feel everything like you're doing it in Real life

[covert nova]

Any virtual world you committed to would meet that same fate. Unplugging from that reality is the only thing that makes it special.

[timid meadow]

Tbf computers are human magic. Shoved electricity into sand and made it think for itself

[jaunty compass]

That's some really smart sand

[covert nova]

And they're mundane after 2 months.

If that.

[timid meadow]

Cpus alone are only mundane if you dont know how it all works

Much less other hardware

[dreamy rose]

that's why you have the ability to CHOOSE how you experience it.

[covert nova]

So my response concerning the ability to choose 'at a whim and a command' was a valid one, despite being dismissed at the time. Are you asking me questions, or are you preaching to me?

[wintry dagger]

Well it’s my old pc and it’s only for YouTube and stuff so I think it should be fine

[dreamy rose]

what you said was

'i'd never have to work for it"

[wintry dagger]

That moment when the nvidia driver install takes forever on amazing internet

[dreamy rose]

thats cheats. i never allowed you to cheat in this example

[covert nova]

And yet you allowed me 'whatever experience I chose'.

[dreamy rose]

i dont get how playing through a PC would be cheating

[covert nova]

I can drive any vehicle that I want, and I can choose how to experience it. Correct?

[dreamy rose]

you can drive what you want. however you choose to experience the game

you cant just cheat your way through a game.

[covert nova]

Who would stop me?

[dreamy rose]

Anticheat

[covert nova]

So there is a service.

[dreamy rose]

not hosting your life.

[timid meadow]

Now im just imagining that some ultra millionare has to have done it by now right? Like someone has to have setup damn near a production studio for vr games.

To have literally any environment they want

With peripherals

[covert nova]

I doubt a millionaire would be concerned with it.

[dreamy rose]

which is. that's what you said was your concern "you could have your life cut off cause of a service"

[covert nova]

Your digital life.

[dreamy rose]

your life isnt touched by a Service. every game sees you as another user.

just as if you were playing on a PC. which you could choose to do

[timid meadow]

On that same line tho, your digital life and real life could already be destroyed if google "unplugs" your email for example

[covert nova]

so why does this world matter? Why does it replace my need for a vehicle in real life?

[weary moon]

Yep, you'll be fine without it. Even regular OC is fine with just the 8 pin and keeping the +4 blank. Really confusing though, nothing actually says that it's optional

[dreamy rose]

it replaces your Real life. you can meet whoever you want through a game.

[covert nova]

My digital life could be destroyed, true. But I don't live in such a way that my real life would be that terribly damaged. Believe it or not, I leave home without my cell phone regularly.

[dreamy rose]

what so you don't get calls?

[covert nova]

You're showing me a horzion, I'm showing you a greenscreen wall. We're not seeing the same thing here.

[timid meadow]

I use you in a general sense there. Im sure we both know people who tie every part of their life to a different apple or google service without even needing some dystopian extra stuff

[dreamy rose]

because you arent getting it

[covert nova]

I don't think you're getting your own proposition. There's something you're not calculating for.

You can't figure out why I wouldn't want this digital reality surrogate you're describing, and it's clear because every time I point out a flaw, you change a definition, and every time I point out another flaw in arguendo, you change a definition back. It's a little annoying tbh.

[jaunty compass]

removing that dying hard drive fixed the freezes

[wintry dagger]

welp im now sending this message from the pc that has a single 8 pin plugged in on a OVERCLOCKED i7-980x cpu

[jaunty compass]

the weird part was that I didn't even have anything that was running on that drive

[wintry dagger]

idk how it works

[jaunty compass]

it would randomly shoot up to 100% usage for like a second and go back to zero

and the whole pc would freeze

[dreamy rose]

i cant be more clear. your life ISNT hosted by a service its basically a Home or a room, you choose. its run by the hardware and you can take a device from the real world and use it (like a SSH into a real PC to play games the traditional way) or you get to be able to "Physically" go into a game. you'd have social VR to interact with anyone from the real world.

[dreamy rose]

i have had that with dying drives too

its just what Dying drives do

[jaunty compass]

anyway, i removed it and now my system is all SSD

a 512 gig os ssd and a 2tb ssd for games and shit

i bought the 2tb ssd for $100 on newegg because it was on sale and i wanted to replace a dying drive at the time

I'm basically back where I started, 2.5 tb of storage except now it's all ssd instead of mostly hard drive

[dreamy rose]

i wish i even had 1.2TB of SSD

thats my CX2 and a 1TB SSD

[jaunty compass]

I bought a 2tb CX2 2tb because it was $100 at the time

rn it's like 90

but it's out of stock i think

[covert nova]

You still include the caveat of "the real world". That's the place that matters. Your hypothetical digital world is still 100% dependent on the real world. I don't know if you've got a case of nihilism or what, but however meaningless you may think the real world is, this digital world you're proposing is even more meaningless, and dependent on the first. Hard pass.

[jaunty compass]

there are some 2tb ssds around 110 usd on newegg

[dreamy rose]

yeah the only downsides is that your system can be turned off or fail. but that doesn make you Dead

[covert nova]

It does mean that the time you've spent developing this digital existence is gone.

[dreamy rose]

what about Redundancy?

[covert nova]

The entire proposition is redundant.

[dreamy rose]

i mean like Raid.

[covert nova]

You're not attacking my argument. You're preaching.

[dreamy rose]

Backups. Mirroring

[covert nova]

If that's the fantasy you want, more power to you. you'll be bored in a week.

And you're talking to someone who has a VR headset and a computer that can run pretty much any game I want, and would rather touch grass even now.

It can be dressed up with whatever tactile feedback you like. Whatever degree of nothing you could argue that the whole of reality means, virtual reality still finds a way to matter less.

[polar fern]

It’s the default model.

The mac model has normal key marking

@granite tinsel it’s for my Lenovo

@sharp leaf you are 100% not alone. ❤️

[amber cairn]

we shaving like it's 1899?

[near nymph]

Hell yes

I got a double edge safety razor. Good old technology.

[polar fern]

My face would be a mess if I tried shaving with a razor.

[near nymph]

How so?

[polar fern]

Skin not like such things

[amber cairn]

i've just used a trimmer for like the last 5 or so years, don't really miss being clean shaven

[polar fern]

I have to use hand sanitizer (even before pandemic) or my hands peel & peel forever

[near nymph]

I've had issues shaving with a Gillette Fusion 5. I said fuck that and got a double edge razor. Single blade :3

I love being clean shaven.

[polar fern]

I use a wahl trimmer, and often finish with a Remington in those areas that give me trouble

[near nymph]

My skin says fuck off whenever I try to use a cartridge razor.

So I'm stuck with good old double edge

I mean I don't rly mind it... It's cheaper and more environment friendly

[polar fern]

One of these for face, under chin & neck just below ears https://a.co/d/04va4VD

Then I use a barber shop style trimner for rest of neck

Then sometimes I finish my whole face & neck with this https://a.co/d/1PlCMxr

Then I have a braun portable that I bought for a trip last October.

The main reason I need a portable is because my facial hair grows fairly quickly and I actually need to shave multiple times a day to wear respiratory PPE and have it sealed properly to the skin

Before the pandemic, I never saved, smooth ever

It’s very uncomfortable for my skin, but I have found that these three trimmers do a pretty good job without tearing my skin up

I used to use a safety razor to shave, but my skin would be irritated for hours afterwards & have all kinds of red marks.

Speaking of travel, I am going on a overnight trip soon, and I wanted to bring all of my trimmers with me, so I bought this for the Remington: https://a.co/d/iO8Rg0S

It has the silver trimmer model in the picture there, but it fits the one I have

My grandfather actually owned a safety razor with a had a Scrimshaw style handle

Some guy he knew from the army back in the day, cast it out of iron for him after carving it from clay & doing the whole wax thing

Depicted the story of my grandfather‘s deployment during World War II

I still have it around somewhere, I just don’t use it anymore

Moisturizer

It puts the lotion on its skin

[wind pulsar]

Some moisturizer ig, otherwise try going to a dermatologist

[manic torrent]

I started using a moisturising ointment on my shins, and it... Magically made them better. I think it improved the blood flow, so they healed and then that made them better again, so it's a positive feedback loop

Because I have no fat on my shins, plus they are covered in all sorts of scars from me smashing them on shit constantly

[manic torrent]

I semi recently built a monitor riser platform to control my monitors height using a stepper motor. I integrated this into home assistant with an ESP32 running esphome. I have it working, but have not yet finalised the wiring and sorted it all out to travel the full distance. My wife sometimes uses home assistant to flash the lights in my office if she needs me for some reason. Today, she mis-tapped slightly, and set the monitor riser to 45cm. I saw and hear it going up, and it wasn't stopping - and it could damage things. I pulled out the first thing I could reach/see, which was the control for the stepper motor. It stopped with the monitors a bit up, but still workable. .... Turns out the ESP32 is fried - and I don't have a spare! Moral of the story? Put an interlock on your monitor riser control so your wife doesn't accidentally change it! I'm sure this will apply to many of you.

[dreamy rose]

rip

[fossil frost]

im pretty sure i mentioned endstops to you at some point 😄

[manic torrent]

how would they have helped?

[fossil frost]

it would have at least stopped before it ripped its self apart.. then at least the only bad thing that could happen would be that your wife could use it to annoy you, rather than ripping its self to bits

[dreamy rose]

i remember reading something like this

[manic torrent]

no dude, it isn't ready to go the whole way. It would have stopped at 45cm after it ripped the cables oput

[fossil frost]

ah ok

[manic torrent]

(or possibly not - point is I haven't checked)

my main issue was I was trying to fucking use it 😄

So I was accessing this so called hidden menu in my laptops BIOS (msi) and I found it has raid

Will this work?

Am on amd 5800H(alpha-15)

[hearty spear]

do you have more than one drive?

But I wouldn't run RAID. The implementation on most computers is trash, and with SSDs you get basically no benefit.

[radiant plank]

yep

not similiar tho one is 512gigs another is 1tb

[hearty spear]

Then no, don't run RAID, unless you want 2x 512 drives

[radiant plank]

oh

welp would've been cool to utilise faster swap

[hearty spear]

It won't be faster

[radiant plank]

would've improved hibernate times if nothing else

[hearty spear]

no it wouldn't

[radiant plank]

why not? i dont have any important data

can go raid0 and just live dangerously

[hearty spear]

get absolutely no fucking benefit

[fossil frost]

SSDs see almost zero benefit from raid, thats why... it would be pointless

[hearty spear]

RAID was useful when drives were actually "slow"
SSDs are so bloody fast that your computer processing the data is frequently where the slowdown is, not reading the drive.

[radiant plank]

shouldnt it.. just double the speed through the striping no matter what the original drive's speed is

ohhhh

[hearty spear]

no

[radiant plank]

fair enough other bottlenecks

[hearty spear]

stop using the B word. It doesn't mean what you think it means.

[fossil frost]

no, because you are limited to the drive controller speed, and you are limited to the implementation of the RAID controller on the board, and on consumer boards, they are shit controllers

[radiant plank]

one part along the chain limiting something even though other things can go faster no?

[fossil frost]

there are several limiting factors, not just 1

[hearty spear]

And what is the limiting factor will change depending on what you're doing

[radiant plank]

ehhh tomato potato same thing in essence

[hearty spear]

The word bottleneck is stupid, because it became a hype word, and now it means absolutely nothing.

everyone's obsessed with bottlenecks

[full fossil]

whos breaking the law in here >:[

hands up

[hearty spear]

Congratulations: Silicon has limitations, and hitting that end is not a bottleneck.

A real bottleneck would be pairing two horribly uneven parts. Such as a GT1030 and a 13700K. That's a bottleneck.

Unless you're running an absolute trash SSD that's slower than an actual HDD? that's not a bottleneck.

so… should i upgrade my ram to 6000? cause then i’d have to buy another set of ram that is 6000

currently have 5200 2x8

planning on going for 32gb

[tired glade]

Ram will fall in price

[summer folio]

14+++++++

[tired glade]

5200 is enough

[summer folio]

DDR3 also?

[tired glade]

Save for 8950x and 6400 ram

[frozen quest]

oh so… no upgrades on ram for now?

[tired glade]

That growing in price

[frozen quest]

just keep it 16gb 5200?

[tired glade]

Yes

[frozen quest]

okok

[summer folio]

Just wait till DDR6 drops

[frozen quest]

couldnt buy a new gpu

[summer folio]

[tired glade]

That will give you more than ram upgrade

[frozen quest]

my rx 5700 is still fine. Just waiting for pcie 5.0 gpu to hit the market

i can wait

[summer folio]

My ATI x1950 Pro is fine, Just waiting for PCI-E 6.0 to hit the market

Can also wait.

[frozen quest]

Hey does anyone know if it’s normal for a psu to have coil whine while playing games like Cybepunk?

[sweet jetty]

Holy duck that's nightmare fuel, fix it

No offense, you should start looking out for it wth

[polar steeple]

If you can hear coil whine from your PSU it would be happening regardless of the game

Of you're hearing it based on the game it's probably the GPU whining

[raw bough]

It does whine regardless of game just very quietly. Gets slightly louder under load

Doesn’t mean it’s bad tho right ?

[polar steeple]

It's not really anything to worry about it's not like it's gonna explode or anything

[raw bough]

Bet cool thanks just making sure lol

[polar steeple]

Yeah of course

Unfortunately OEMs don't treat coil whine as something you can RMA

[sweet jetty]

Do you think God stays in heaven because he's afraid of what he's created... Here on earth

Nvm I'm too random, sorry

[polar steeple]

Got a better one for you

We don't see any deities because they're all servers in a rack somewhere

[sweet jetty]

I mean, yeah, could be

Theres this movie called chappie

It made me question a lot of shit we have in life

[polar steeple]

...chappie? The movie about the cyborg?

I'll give you a movie to watch that'll make you question life in a better way

It's called Jeff, Who Lives at Home. On the surface it is a comedy but it goes deeper than that

You'll cry but you'll come away feeling better about life

Or at least I do

[gilded quest]

I used to love that movie

[pulsar violet]

Apples compass tracking is about to give me some sort of medical condition, like it’s pointing my south to west

[normal cargo]

Chappie was trash lol

[wraith sonnet]

So I swapped from the 6600 to the a770

Tbh it's not bad except for two games

Borderlands 2 and republic commando

But republic commando has more pressing issues

[sweet jetty]

I see

[tired glade]

@wraith sonnet try to load something very old, something from late 90's

[summer folio]

Guys guys, let's get radicalized together!

[tired glade]

Will Vulcan patch pick it up

[wraith sonnet]

I'm on windows 11 most of those games don't even run on my system before this

[tired glade]

Very boring day, right?

[wraith sonnet]

Tf would I play Lego island?

[tired glade]

Oh,11

Try it

[summer folio]

Right, Left, Up, Down, you choose the direction!

[tired glade]

Haha

[tired glade]

Check your gog collection

[wraith sonnet]

I actually have never bought off gog

[tired glade]

Rip

[wraith sonnet]

Most of my PC gaming started in 2010, a childhood game to me is TF2 which runs like butter on arc

[summer folio]

Lego Island 2 has a Swedish dub on Playstation, it's great!

PAL<3

50hz, 25 fps, the way it's meant to be played

[summer folio]

I bought CIV 3 there, worked great.

civilization III best civ

You get to decorate your throne room

[wraith sonnet]

I have never played a civ so this is gibberish

[tired glade]

Oh, 20fps games,that was a time

[tired glade]

Civ4 is best, because you can stack

[summer folio]

No, no throne room, garbage game

[tired glade]

Haha

[summer folio]

There is a Civ 6 mod to bring back Civ II & Civ III's throne room tho

[tired glade]

oh,Modding

[summer folio]

How long have my egg cooked? Gaah

Underboil them or overboil them?

Started typing here 11 mins ago, so removed them hmm

[gentle slate]

Yall, what would be the current top android phone picks? Seems oneplus has fallen out of favor.

[wintry dagger]

why? the 6600 is better than the a770

[timid meadow]

The new OnePlus looks solid. Im getting the s21 FE. Last years pixel is okay too. I say last years specifically because i dont feel its smart to get a phone as soon as it drops

[gentle slate]

Looks solid, but seems they've steered away from what made them loved. Esp color os

[wraith sonnet]

My ups would scream because I'm drawing too much power with all three cards

Plus since I work for a retail SI, at least SOMEONE has to learn how to use arc properly

[tired glade]

New s23 dropped and it's not terrible

[wispy marsh]

You dropped it? How much is the screen replacement?

[tired glade]

I think,infinite, but hadn't heard something very bad about it

[wintry dagger]

idk if ur joking or not

[timid meadow]

I get a case and screen protector for a phone before i even buy the phone. Gotta be ready with that. Especially on new phones

[tired glade]

In between

[wintry dagger]

that made me even more confused

[tired glade]

Screen protector,is that still a thing?

[valid prawn]

[valid prawn]

tuf gaming z690 plus wifi d4

[valid prawn]

i already checked reddit

could not find anyone with this issue

[wintry dagger]

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/15084/intel-ethernet-adapter-complete-driver-pack.html?wapkw=intel ethernet controller 3 i225-v

[valid prawn]

trying that rn

[wintry dagger]

ok

[valid prawn]

appreciate it

[wintry dagger]

np!

[valid prawn]

i saw ur message for a split second

all it said was :WHY WOULD U BUY A BOARD" and thats all i saw what was that about lol

[wintry dagger]

why would you buy a board with wifi if you're using ethernet?!?! in caps

[valid prawn]

it has gigabit ethernet ports i assumed it wouldn't be an issue

[wintry dagger]

oof only gigabit?

[valid prawn]

well actually 2.5 gb

[wintry dagger]

my b550 has 2.5 gb

ah nvm then

[valid prawn]

yeah

ive never really cared about mb specs aslong as it works its fine for me

[gilded quest]

gigabit is fine tbh

[valid prawn]

but lets see if this intel driver works

[wintry dagger]

shhhh you need the higher number!!!

[gilded quest]

the only use I have for 2.5GbE now is Steam in home client to client transfers

[wintry dagger]

I have my mouse plugged into usb 3.2 gen 1 for the extra fast mouse experience

[gilded quest]

lol my board has 10GbE and 2.5GbE

[valid prawn]

plugging in ethernet rn lets see if the issue comes back

[gilded quest]

I have 3 10GbE clients now, including my home server. But 10GbE switches are prohibitively expensive

[wintry dagger]

do a speed test with ethernet, and with wifi

https://speedtest.net

[normal cargo]

Is this fine, the RGB controls suck ass though

[valid prawn]

will do

[gilded quest]

what what what

what does Gigabit ethernet have to do with RGB control

[night heron]

rgb ethernet

[wintry dagger]

troll I think

[gilded quest]

Gaming ethernet cables

[wintry dagger]

the lian li rgb cables are the dumbest pc shit ever

[normal cargo]

Read it wrong xD, thought was responding to gigabyte b550. Was a night shift xD

[gilded quest]

agreed
ignore my corsair RGB doritos

[normal cargo]

Yah, you ain't lived til you've had it

[wintry dagger]

cablemod is cheaper, and you get 2 8 pin pci-e power cables, and a 24 pin for 5 bucks cheaper

[valid prawn]

wifi speeds: 500mb+ down 200mb+ up

ethernet speeds: 900mb+ down 700mb+ up

[wintry dagger]

fixed it then

[gilded quest]

i use stock PSU cables
they're fine for me

[valid prawn]

well lets see if i can send an image to discord with ethernet

[valid prawn]

[wintry dagger]

[gilded quest]

[wintry dagger]

LMAO

[sonic barn]

[gilded quest]

💻

[wintry dagger]

[valid prawn]

@wintry dagger issue came back

lovely

speed test is now reporting 0.00 on upload speeds

[sonic barn]

Only RGBs

[valid prawn]

and 900+ on download

[sonic barn]

is that the new ltt only fan

[gilded quest]

i don't get why LTT has an only fan cause they clearly have multiple fans

[summer folio]

Favorism

Like with the salarys

[dull granite]

detos

[sonic barn]

who do you think besides linus gets paid the most

[summer folio]

Yvonne

[gilded quest]

Yvonne

[sonic barn]

besides yvonne and linus

[gilded quest]

not colton

Nick Light?

not that it matters anyways

[sonic barn]

I think its either james or riley

they both manage techlinked and sort of shortcircuit

[gilded quest]

but i'd assume its Nick Light or Luke

[sonic barn]

luke is floatplane

not ltt

[gilded quest]

fine

does LMG have a COO or CFO

[normal cargo]

What about at lmg ? 🙂

[sonic barn]

yvonne I think

[gilded quest]

unless you mean below C suite level

[sonic barn]

its 49/51 for linus and yvonne ownership

I think they said it on the wan show

[sonic barn]

light machine gun

[polar steeple]

Jake Tivy

[sonic barn]

def someone on marketing

whoever does the marketing will get a fat paycheck

they get all the sponsor deals working

[polar steeple]

My understanding from the videos is that Jake is their actual LMG sysadmin

He probably makes a lot

[gilded quest]

lol

[polar steeple]

[sonic barn]

jake is in a lot of vids so yeah

[polar steeple]

But

Dan should be getting paid the most out of all of them

[gilded quest]

i feel like the LTT subreddit already discussed this to death over the weekend

[polar steeple]

Reddit sucks
