too late

[misty scarab]

Answer this : Sheetz or Wawa

[magic holly]

well, you know the answer already so ... Wawa

[full fossil]

Buccees

[misty scarab]

Get out

Sheetz is superior in every way

[magic holly]

I don't like either so 😉

[full fossil]

Both are pale comparisons to buccees

[misty scarab]

Sheetz is like bucces but smaller

At least every one I've been too was that nice

[magic holly]

wtf is buccees .... buccees balls? 🙂

[misty scarab]

Texas

[full fossil]

Buccees is massive

[misty scarab]

It's a huge store like Walmart that's also a gas station and everything you wish for at a rest stop

[full fossil]

You have to google it because “big ass gas station” doesn’t do it justice

[magic holly]

interesting, never heard of it

[misty scarab]

Next time i had go the south I'm stopping at one

[full fossil]

Their bathrooms are always so clean

[misty scarab]

@full fossil do you consider MO a southern state

[full fossil]

It’s part of “the south” cultural region so yes

[copper lake]

Wawa reigns Supreme

[misty scarab]

False

[copper lake]

MO is western in its culture not southern

[wind pulsar]

Steam hardware survey of last month- the RTX 3060 has become the most popular GPU on Steam, with it formerly being the GTX 1060 (the market share suddenly rose by 6.23%, which is CRAZY)

[full fossil]

You expect me to believe Missouri is like california in culture

[misty scarab]

When i went there i enjoyed sweet tea, grits, fried okra and 90 degree weather

In MO*

[full fossil]

Because it’s yeehaw af

[sweet jetty]

Hihi LTTcord

[sweet jetty]

oh damn, that's kinda awesome

[ionic abyss]

should I get a ironwolf or barracuda hdd 8tb both new ironwolf pro has a better warranty

[copper lake]

Wait im just waking up welp my brain was thinking Montana wow I'm fucking dumb lol

[ionic abyss]

$10 price difference

[misty scarab]

Drive to Pittsburgh and deal with the driver's to wake up

[wind pulsar]

And what I said around a year and a half earlier (that 32GB is gonna be the new standard) is holding true, while 16GB is still the most popular config and is still growing, a 32GB config is growing at a much faster rate @manic torrent @hearty spear

[keen sequoia]

https://www.3dmark.com/spy/37368248

[copper lake]

I'm a bit to far away from Pittsburgh will Atlanta do? Its only a days drive away

[keen sequoia]

good score ?

I cant Oc the Gpu more than that .. it starts to artifact

[sweet jetty]

you should make a tech yt channel, you phrase stuff well

[misty scarab]

Pittsburgh to Philly is only like 5 hours

[ionic abyss]

or does it matter what 7200rpm hdd I buy for bulk storage

[copper lake]

?? I'm from Florida lol

[hearty spear]

now that you can get 32GB For 100ish bucks? That's not surprising.

[magic holly]

drove from Philly to Miami in 19 hours before ... never doing that again 😉

[misty scarab]

You said Wawa is better so i assumed you lived in the shooty shoot land of Philly

[wind pulsar]

Still, I said it so much earlier and people went 'Acschuali thad will nevar happen becaus 16GB is mor than enuf'

[hearty spear]

at the time, it probably was!

[copper lake]

Nah Wawa is everywhere in Florida lol

[misty scarab]

Pittsburgh to MO, 10 hours 1 way. No stops or breaks except to get gas. It was fun

[ionic abyss]

I can find a 64gb kit for $120 ddr4

[hearty spear]

But times def change, and 32 gb is easily justifiable now.

[wind pulsar]

Who cares if it's more than enough or not, since when has that stopped people from buying more

[misty scarab]

I have 104gb kek

I use like 70gb at times or more so it's justifiably

[ionic abyss]

more I'd better

[copper lake]

God and I though 12 hours is brutal

[misty scarab]

Not always

[wind pulsar]

People in 4th gen also went 'Acschuali thad will nevar happen becaus 8 GB is mor than enuf' and look where we are now

[misty scarab]

Only if you need more

[ionic abyss]

more is always better than less

[full fossil]

This happens every year

[misty scarab]

Not with RAM

More ram is only useful if you can actually use it all

Other than that you're just wasting money for no reason

[misty tartan]

Arch not booting up for me in vm

[misty scarab]

Also what about with errors? Are more errors better than less errors?

[eager venture]

I just finished the writing half of my ap cs midterm

I did the multiple choice yesterday

[copper lake]

Hey yall tech linked is unbanned

[misty scarab]

104gb is such a funky number for ram

But async dual channel is better than flex mode

[ionic abyss]

next you will say my and home server doesn't need a 96core eypic and 2tb of ram

[misty scarab]

It probably doesn't

[ionic abyss]

I will upgrade it when I can

but I did need to oc my second 12700k to 7.4ghz right??

[misty scarab]

I don't even think you can do that on liquid nitrogen

[ionic abyss]

phase change -25

and lots of luck

[misty scarab]

Still probably not happening

[wind pulsar]

Apparently the average clock on ln2 on a 12700K is around 6.4ghz
So I doubt it as well

[ionic abyss]

stable and survived 24hour stress tests

but over 450watt power draw

I guess I will the silicon lottery with the chip

won* not will

[neon mesa]

90% of the time it's unused if you're just a gamer tho.
Personally only DCS can use out my 32GB kit. With the rest being non gaming tasks like AI inference/training.

My laptop with 4GB is still usable for light games too.

[ionic abyss]

at 450+ watts who knows how long the 12700k will live

[misty scarab]

I have 104gb for cities skylines kek

[ionic abyss]

I did have to push the phase change cooler to 80% to cool it

[misty scarab]

my cpu is running at 60c under liquid
thats how hot the ambient air in my room is

normally with my room set to my ideal temprature im pushing 28c under liquid

[ionic abyss]

-25c 7.4ghz 12700k is pure luck

[full fossil]

Hi

[full fossil]

Tf

I need proof lol

Under a tripple rad the max all core clock is 6.2ghz

So I highly doubt you got 7.4ghz without nitrogen

[dull granite]

yoo

RTX 3060 IS 10%!?!?

[wind pulsar]

The 10% isn't even the surprising part, the surprising part is how the 3060 had an up of like 6% last month lmao

[dull granite]

it's kinda sus

if you ask me

it was never that fast

[fresh ermine]

https://youtu.be/DbDM0Dcg7hg

Does that mean I can fool Roblox to think my 8botdo ultimate controller as a Xbox controller by using steam?

[dull granite]

2060 is also +3.58%, 1060 is +2.58%

[wind pulsar]

1440p resolution by 8%, 32GB RAM by 8% as well

[dull granite]

i mean

speed being speed of market share changing

[ionic abyss]

is it possible to screenshit bios?

[dull granite]

also 6600/XT went down by -0.10%/-0.05%

so i guess it doesn't have to do with older generation being a good deal too

[wind pulsar]

Every single AMD GPU went down

[dull granite]

also +11% windows 10

[ionic abyss]

phase change cooler not nitro

[dull granite]

and - ~10% windows 11?

[ionic abyss]

-25c is the temp it's at

[empty iris]

RIP those poor souls with less than 4GB

[neon mesa]

How tf did 3060 grew so quick so sudden

The 1650 took over 1060 not long ago

[sonic barn]

Someone planted it in the ground

[ionic abyss]

and I might have killed a $470 mobo during ocn

[wind pulsar]

Mandarin Chinese as a set language very coincidentally rose up by 25% as well btw

[sonic barn]

And English too

[ionic abyss]

but the cpu lived

[wind pulsar]

English went down by 11%

[ionic abyss]

got a new mobo with better bios oc settings

[sonic barn]

This year?

[wind pulsar]

Nonono, this MONTH

[ionic abyss]

$600 for new mobo and coating and anti condensation stuff

[sonic barn]

Is this Kahoot? What source is your information from

[neon mesa]

Feel like 32GB becoming the standard is more on the cheap pricing of DDR4 nowadays than necessity

[wind pulsar]

Literally the Steam hardware survey

[sonic barn]

Speakers are done through census in tax filings

[ionic abyss]

let's say a mobo isn't cover by warranty once you apply a heavy conformal coating

[dull granite]

???

okay something is very very sus here

like how did chinese went by +25% in a month

[full fossil]

Just Noticed, TechLinked is back

[wind pulsar]

I assume that Steam is now incorporating Chinese Steam into the hardware survey

[dull granite]

maybe

[wind pulsar]

(Chinese Steam has a different launcher and everything)

[dull granite]

but shouldn't they like
announce this

[full fossil]

Most Probably.

[dull granite]

also i guess they have a lot of gaming cafes

with RTX 3060s

[wind pulsar]

Why would they, lol

Nvidia released a GTX 1630 without announcing shit either, so

[dull granite]

i guess steam hardware survery just stopped being a representative of average PC

[empty iris]

I don’t blame them, the 1630 is basically a glorified GTX 1060

[dull granite]

because usual gaming cafe pc is not the same

[neon mesa]

no?

[strange elk]

What the hell is a 1630

[empty iris]

I guess they decided it was worth it to silently launch it rather then getting bad PR coverage about them re-releasing a product (at the time)

[full fossil]

Isnt the 1060 More Powerful though?

[neon mesa]

1630 performance is literally as shit as a 1050 2GB
so calling it a glorified 1060 is extremely generous

[empty iris]

Actually yeah good point

[full fossil]

Nvidia Cashgrab

[empty iris]

I accidentally praised it, sorry

[wind pulsar]

The only praise I'll give the 1630 is that it is the PERFECT card to have line for

[full fossil]

its more comparable to an 1050

[neon mesa]

looking at steam hardware survey really shows how bleak the situation is for AMD

[wind pulsar]

'If your card is worse than a 1630, your system sucks'

[dull granite]

chinese gaming cafes just buy nvidia more

[neon mesa]

even before this incorporation of chinese steam AMD is already looking bad there

[full fossil]

Its sad tbh cause im running an 7900 XTX ( Ik not everyone goes for top of the line ) and lest gen i had an 6700XT They are Amazing cards and imop Beat Nvidia at price to performance in rasterisation i believe.

[neon mesa]

lol the dominance of windows in the gaming sector is basically undefeatable

[dull granite]

another theory is maybe uhhh nvidia hires people in china to make nvidia look better in steam hardware survery and they shipped a shitton of RTX 360s

[stoic beacon]

Hence TechLinked's "But seriously, you first" joke.

[gilded quest]

2024 is gonna be the year of Linux on the Desktop

[full fossil]

yeah its mental,

[neon mesa]

i've heard this every year

[stoic beacon]

2024 is gonna be the year people will type "2025 is gonna be the year of Linux on the desktop"

[full fossil]

There is gonna have to be significant changes to olinux that i welcome regarding compatibility though.

[gilded quest]

And you will continue to until it is true

[strange condor]

2024 is gonna be the year of mac os

[gilded quest]

[strange condor]

Yeah no I recognise you

[neon mesa]

your about me is a giveaway

[rapid stone]

Does all artic aios are with liquid?

[leaden gale]

By definition, an AIO cooler uses liquid cooling

[spice sand]

“Wonder if this liquid cooler uses liquid”

[leaden gale]

Just wait till they find out why they're called AIOs

[pliant karma]

[dapper locust]

linux cant be a good gaming platform as it doesnt support all games

[timid meadow]

technically most air coolers also use liquid

[pearl remnant]

games require a consistent environment and linux is open source

[leaden gale]

You're not wrong

[pearl remnant]

proton is rad though

[neon mesa]

most are a shitty hunk of aluminum (majority of coolers being stock unless diy sector)

[spice sand]

Hasn’t “(insert year here) of the Linux desktop” been said for the last 5 years

[pearl remnant]

who is saying 3050 of the linux desktop

[timid meadow]

The only thing stopping widespread linux adoption rn is a cleaner gui for maintenance related stuff, and general community perception imo

[spice sand]

Support is uh, anyways. And gatekeepers are assholes

[civic mason]

so AMD is red, Nvidia green, Intel blue, Is Apple team silver?

[spice sand]

Apple isn’t a team color

Especially now with multi color macs

[timid meadow]

Deleted because that sounded needlessly aggressive

[lapis shoal]

Apple is human grey 😉

[fluid ridge]

[timid lava]

guys, is it normal that my nearly full 500gb nvme drive is estimated at 4 hours cloning time to a 2TB 5000 read and write NVME?

[molten drift]

Well given that a 5000 rpm HDD is slow. Yeah. It's not the nvme drive that's the issue

The nvme may be able to send data very fast but the slow drive your cloning too can only process data so fast.

[lucid echo]

the advertised read/write does not apply to every situation

It'll be much slower for tiny files as opposed to large video files

[neon mesa]

My 32GB 3200MHz CL16 kit is like 80 bucks
do you think it's overpriced
it's 2x16 and has RGB

or is it just the market price

more like 85 bucks

I wouldn’t be too mad ngl

[gilded stratus]

what do i get when i commit boost

[summer folio]

Guys, guys, did u know

TechLinked is Back!

[silver island]

Why are people being so dismissive about how no one even plays factory blah blah blah in the comments

Literally the only game linus benchmarks that I do play

[tired glade]

Yea, it's back

[tired glade]

Because that difference is so huge, that it is unfair

Plus you need to mod game to unlock fps

[silver island]

Its not fps

Also you don’t need a mod

The performance of these chips limits how big of a factory you can make

[hearty spear]

We did. Jake told us earlier.

[silver island]

Sooo this is just a way of quantifying the max size you could make

[tired glade]

Yes,it is

Unlocked fps can break multiplayer

[silver island]

Are you high

[hearty spear]

#public-chat message

[silver island]

Its not fps

[hearty spear]

unlocked FPS can actually break some game engines. it's legitimately a thing.

[silver island]

THE BENCHMARK ISNT FPS

[hearty spear]

u mad, bro?

[tired glade]

Factory multiplayer works on ticks,if you like X4 fps faster,you can get desync

[full fossil]

It’s not that serious

[tired glade]

That why there is hard 60fps cap

[full fossil]

Skyrim moment

[hearty spear]

*Bethesda moment

[tired glade]

Skyrim has different problems

[full fossil]

Istg if starfield is 60fps limited

[hearty spear]

fun fact: If you speed up in-game time in skyrim? Random objects around town / in building may start flying around.

[full fossil]

Not that it even looks interesting to begin with

[silver island]

the benchmark isnt a benchmark of fps, its ups, fps and ups are not the same thing

its also not accurate

[tired glade]

No public information

[full fossil]

It looks publicly mediocre

[silver island]

fps is the speed at which you draw shit

ups is the speed at which you update the factory

[full fossil]

Idk about you but I can draw maybe 1 frame per hour

[silver island]

the benchmark is benchmarking how fast your factory can be updated

[hearty spear]

I have no idea what this sentence even means.

[silver island]

yes because you have no idea what you are talking about now shush

.

[tired glade]

Oh, yea, it's updates per second

[hearty spear]

Dude, I bought my first 3D Accelerator before most of this discord was even born.
I know plenty.

You could try mentioning what fucking benchmark you're talking about

[silver island]

#public-chat message

[hearty spear]

I've never even heard of factory

[silver island]

exactly

[tired glade]

Someone not nerd

[silver island]

you dont know what you are talking about so shush

You don’t have to be so rude

Good way to get people to dismiss you

this ghidra program is neat af

[silver island]

ok now this is actually rude

[tardy terrace]

You've been a dick for like 2 days now, can you knock it off?

[silver island]

true

[tardy terrace]

Holy shit, just because the discord age limit is 13 doesn't mean you have to permanently act like one.

[hearty spear]

No. You're getting pissed off at people for not knowing "Factory"

When the game is Factorio

[silver island]

if you didnt know what i was talking about why were you talking

yes I mistyped it, but why are you talking if you didnt know what it was either

[hearty spear]

And you just lost any credibility you might have saved. Good job.

And I commented that the statement "Some engines are FPS Capped because it breaks things" is entirely accurate.
Because it is accurate.

You were looking for a reason to be mad. So be mad.

[tardy terrace]

Stop feeding it.

is 103 C safe VRM mosfet temp ?

When I was benchmarking my ryzen 7 1700x i noticed my mobo vrm got to 103C

[keen sequoia]

b 450 gaming gigabyte

https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B450M-GAMING-rev-1x#kf this

got ryzen 71700x OCed to 3.85 ghz

[tardy terrace]

My main concerns would be an inadequate thermal pad, and airflow to that heatsink

Are you running any silly voltages?

[oak flare]

Just slap a cheap old heatsink on it if you're worried

[keen sequoia]

no

[tardy terrace]

Jakkuh, I saw you typing earlier- whaddaya want

[keen sequoia]

so I cant do anything about them ?

I am not a pro modder xD

[tardy terrace]

Increase airflow?

[keen sequoia]

yea that can help so ? cuz the overall fans are shitty molex on the case

[tardy terrace]

Air cooler?

[keen sequoia]

yes but kinda beefy

[tardy terrace]

the exhaust off the stacks is basically going to wash over the vrm heatsink and heat it up. Getting some decent fans will help

[keen sequoia]

I will then buy better fans

[tardy terrace]

I know people play factorio

I just know I never will

people who play factorio are built different

it's also like $35

and i've never seen it on sale

it's not my kind of game anyway

Howdy ! Hope everyone is having a good day ! Just coming through with a quick question in regards to IT education/ certificate programs: Have any of you guys ever heard of California Institute of Arts and Technology ? I’ve been looking into programs and this one caught my eye but I’m not sure if the school is an ITT tech situation or not

[tardy terrace]

Oh god, I may have made a mistake trying to import fallout4.exe

[night heron]

[hearty spear]

what did you do, ray?

[robust nest]

can i use the mac M1 directly on my lap?

[tardy terrace]

I did an oopsie

[plush rivet]

Do you have specifications of what it teaches

[hearty spear]

yes

but, y'know, move it if it gets too hot for you.

[full fossil]

hey people

[plush rivet]

Which it probably will

[hearty spear]

as would most laptops

my i7 4th gen gets hot as hell if it's going full tilt for a while

[full sparrow]

https://www.ciat.edu/cct/ it’s 3 courses

[night heron]

m1 wont get hot on your laptop if it isnt thermal pad modded

[robust nest]

well, im not doing anything superostrenuous on it

[night heron]

the thermal pad mod is what allows the heat to get into the laptop case

[hearty spear]

yes, it's probably more than fine.

[robust nest]

just taking a simple coding course, learning the basics of python

[plush rivet]

Personally yes I’d invest time into it, an A+ is a fantastic start to IT. I legit got mine yesterday lol

[night heron]

what m1 mac do you have

[robust nest]

m1 air

[night heron]

nah it wont hurt your lap

itll get a little warm but it shouldnt be uncomfortably warm

[full sparrow]

Congrats ! I was on the fence . I’ve never heard of this college before and I couldn’t find much information about it on the internet

[robust nest]

and if i place it on the bed? could that damage the laptop?

[night heron]

it will not

[hearty spear]

no

[robust nest]

oh alr alr

[night heron]

you can place the m1 macbook air anywhere you want because it does not have any fans

[plush rivet]

Getting an A+ heavily helps you getting internships and such, after I’d recommend network+ as it gives more fundamentals of basic network infrastructure

[night heron]

treat it like you would your phone

[robust nest]

makes sense, i was told not to do that with normal laptops, but thats probably because of the fans

[night heron]

yeah with laptops that have fans the bedsheets can clog the vents with dust or suffocate the fans

[full sparrow]

Do you think this school is legitimate though ?

[night heron]

but with yours its no problem at all

[robust nest]

alr, thanks

[full sparrow]

I tried researching this college but not a lot came up

[plush rivet]

Put some researxh in and check the location. Call and see

If your purely doing it for the cert, you can 100% do it without help if your focused enough

[dawn pilot]

is hackintosh discussion allowed here?

[plush rivet]

Wouldn’t try it

[tired glade]

Aren't those dead?

[dawn pilot]

ok

[night heron]

there was someone talking about hackintosh earlier today but i dont know if it's allowed

[plush rivet]

Technically it’s against TOS due it to not being officially legal

[dawn pilot]

because ltt videos have included them, without outrightly condoning them for obvious reasons

[wind pulsar]

According to Momo, it's fine to discuss it as long you don't discuss how to pirate it, the piracy part in general

[plush rivet]

There’s your answer

[dawn pilot]

oh ok fair enough

[tired glade]

Mac mini exist for same price or cheaper than good PC,so they can be dead like concept

[wind pulsar]

Quote:

'Yes, as long as the piracy part of it isn’t discussed
Things like ISO’s images, spoofing and resources on how to do those things are all not allowed, however processes and issues, troubleshooting are all fine'

[tired glade]

And there is iso problem too

And half of things won't work too

[dawn pilot]

to be fair if you already have a pc and want mac features, why not try it anyways

[stiff shore]

dont need to when win11 already copying mac

[tired glade]

ISO

[dawn pilot]

ye apple dont atually make isos

[tired glade]

And windows 11 also exist

[dawn pilot]

but it doesnt have things like imessage

[tired glade]

You can't get legally image

[plush rivet]

It does actually

[stiff shore]

oh fuck i accidentally chatted in public chat

[dawn pilot]

well you can

from the app store on a real mac

[tired glade]

Agreement won't let you make image

Nice

[dawn pilot]

fair enough

[tired glade]

Get used Mac mini, they should be in 300 range

based tech chat 2

[tardy terrace]

god i've still got probably 10 varying xp keys stashed about

[tired glade]

That's used market for you, but I was more about M1 mac mini

[tardy terrace]

Every time I'd tear down an oem system I salvaged the product key sticker

[night heron]

i have 60,000 messages and 30,000 of those are in tech chat 1 but ive only chatted in tech chat 2 four times in 2023

[tired glade]

Apple tracks you

[night heron]

i dont know why i never use chat 2

[tired glade]

Without anything

[rare zenith]

What kind of a point is that?

[dawn pilot]

idrc tbh

[full sparrow]

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it

[hearty spear]

cuz 2 is always way more dead

[rare zenith]

you can dickride apple, just dont lie to yourself

[dawn pilot]

even windows tracks you

[tired glade]

Logics to their clouds, I was about that

[rare zenith]

every company tracks you pretty much

[neon mesa]

Tech 2 is there if pub and 1 is dead. But really if pub and 1 is dead then 2 is probably also dead

[dawn pilot]

so we cant pretend that apple are particually bad

plus in europe at least you can have to option to opt out of most tracking on most platforms

[sonic barn]

I lost power

[vast shuttle]

UI is just one part of the Mac experience. Thats like saying oneplus copies iphones look so that's the same thing

[rare zenith]

noooo

[sonic barn]

Freezing rain

Yes

[dawn pilot]

i agree but i must say some of it, if not most is needed to make their product better

[sonic barn]

I'm just lucky I don't have any assignments due

[dawn pilot]

but you should ALWAYS be able to opt out

ye but i mean you should be able to opt out of ALL tracking

lol meta are probably the worst for tracking

apparently tiktoks quite bad too

[rare zenith]

isnt that why they were trying to get tiktok banned?

[dawn pilot]

supposedly

[vast shuttle]

because they're not a US company.

[dawn pilot]

its more a political thing i think tho

[vast shuttle]

yea

[rare zenith]

yucky

[silver island]

Why not?

[jaunty compass]

It's $35 and I don't like that kind of game

[sonic barn]

Doesn't oracle manage their data

Wait until u see discord

[full fossil]

Yeah but tiktok is china so it’s worse /s

[silver island]

you dont like aggressively relocating and polluting the neighbors smh

[rare zenith]

i tried to move away from discord over a year ago, but my friends at the time all refused to and at that point i didnt care enough

[vast shuttle]

The problem is that congress seems to think that tiktok will have no option but to hand over user data if the chinese government asks for it. No matter who manages it

[summer folio]

China is so far away so it doesn't matter.
Worse when west spies.

[sonic barn]

[full fossil]

Hello my fellow tech enthusiasts

[summer folio]

Never seen a chinese person in my life.

[full fossil]

I did

[full fossil]

Issue is it’s not a “tiktok ban” it’s a vague bill allowing them to ban any media they deem a “threat”

[rare zenith]

welcome, fair warning, like half the people have stupid takes or get upset at you for literally anything

[vast shuttle]

china will probably look at you when you open tiktok

[full fossil]

NOOOOOOOO I thought it was full of intellectuals with based takes

[rare zenith]

many based takes

[full fossil]

my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined

[sonic barn]

Hot

I'll look at them

Seduce them like I did for my fbi agent

[rare zenith]

YOU WHAT

[vast shuttle]

can tiktok access devices on your home network?

[sonic barn]

Nothing

I said too much already

[sonic barn]

Can TikTok use wifi?

[vast shuttle]

no

[sonic barn]

How do you uninstall TikTok

[vast shuttle]

you know how spotify can know you have another device using it like a tv?

[sonic barn]

That's using the same network

[vast shuttle]

could they determine that certain accounts belong to my family since im always in the same network with them

[sonic barn]

No

[vast shuttle]

yea

[sonic barn]

You're turning into that guy who made temple os

[vast shuttle]

how did you know i wear a tinfoil hat

[sonic barn]

Because you rebel

[vast shuttle]

RIP

[sonic barn]

F

[summer folio]

Could tiktok access my wifi from my mobilephone?!?

[vast shuttle]

lol

[sonic barn]

Can TikTok send data without internet

Can I use TikTok as a router?

[hearty spear]

Just remember: We the people elected all of those dumbasses in congress who were asking those questions

[sonic barn]

I'm not in the USA

[vast shuttle]

Im not USAian either

[full fossil]

I blame the financial model of media at this point for putting all these rage bait assholes on a pedestal

[hearty spear]

without a doubt

[neon mesa]

Tiktok going away is more benefit than none

We have youtube shorts anyway if you really want short form content

But this time an american company will farm your data instead of china

Whichever is worse for you

[sonic barn]

The outage here says equipment failure and no one was dispatched yet since 3:13. Rip me

It'll only be back at 6pm which is sad

[neon mesa]

Youtube shorts better
More informative content
And more content creators in general

[sonic barn]

I usually eat at 6pm today

[hearty spear]

but at least there is no fed law that says "you must turn over all data to the gov't just cuz they said so" (at least there isn't yet)

[vast shuttle]

tiktok algorithm is kinda superior tho

youtube shorts are still cool tho

[summer folio]

Facebook Reels

[neon mesa]

The benefit of tiktok going away is preventing degeneracy spreading rather than china

Some of you might say there are good content there
I know, like every platform
But the bad outweigh the good so far

[summer folio]

So, you're sayin Facebook is super?

[neon mesa]

FB is decent ngl if you just use the groups feature

[summer folio]

I mean LTT stream WAN show on Facebook so it must be good!

[neon mesa]

I am in a local pc enthusiast group in Facebook and it's nice there

Good place to find used parts too

It's shit on my place

The listings are half assed
And a lot of "free" listings

Not to mention the pricing are made by normies

Ain't no one buying your RX 580 for 200 bucks

[summer folio]

isn't Facebook reels even easier to share to friends, since absolut everybody is using Facebook Messenger?

[full fossil]

I paid 200 for a 580 during the 2017 crypto boom lmao

[summer folio]

You can message people on instagram? Who'd knew!

Just use the Facebook website, it has messenger included.

[neon mesa]

I do

[summer folio]

Why would anyone use apps.

[frozen roost]

[neon mesa]

Use both

Best part about Facebook.
When i post something on a pc group that either makes NGreedia team mad or AssMfkingDriver team mad then you see all the notifs going

[eager zealot]

Hey, if no one replies to my tech support post, when is it ok for me to post again if possible?

[hearty spear]

you could bump it every so often, and I doubt people would mind.

[eager zealot]

Wdym by bump? I don't use discord posts often

[glacial schooner]

when you install windows on a chromebook lol

[hearty spear]

if you make a comment on it, that should bump it to the top of the list again

[eager zealot]

Oh I see, thanks for the help

[gentle slate]

Riot broke their entire game

[full fossil]

What VPN's are good now adays?

[gentle slate]

The thing doesnt work on linux, crashes on windows and Mac

[frozen sonnet]

Is Alienware still valid?

[frozen sonnet]

I think the silence speaks for itself!

[runic lagoon]

What did they do ?

[frozen sonnet]

Personally, I use proton vpn. Other than that, I've used a free service called Hoxx VPN. It's a chrome extension, app, windows app, mac app. It's got a good free version for servers in the US, UK, Germany, Netherlands. The paid version is cheap too. Unlimited data with unlimited bandwidth. It looks sketchy but It works a charm!

[gentle slate]

Theyre dropping 32 bit support starting with this patch

Linux has a critical crash on game launch, windows has critical crashes mid game and macos doesnt boot

[night heron]

i can recommend mullvad with the caveat that the iOS app can be finnicky, but it connects reliably by toggling VPN in the settings app

airvpn is also good but a little less beginner friendly

[night heron]

they have a few good products but do you have something specific in mind?

[frozen sonnet]

No I just wondered if they're still relevant lol. My mum bought me a few years back an r4 17" model and it broke fans a few months ago and I've just got them repaired.

[keen sequoia]

Correct me if i am wrong
More core voltage= more stable OC BUT Emits more heat?

[night heron]

usually yes, but heat can cause instability too

[hearty spear]

sometimes, overclocking is not a guarantee

[tardy terrace]

more heat = higher resistance = more amperage = more heat

[full fossil]

Yea had Mullvad but its so broken on android, cant log in on app anymore etc
looked into iVPN thou

[night heron]

damn

[keen sequoia]

my ryzen 7 1700x was stable 75c on 38.5 Ghz when i up for 3.9 it keeps crashing... increasing voltage made me stable but it gets to 90+ now

[night heron]

ryzen 1000 is pretty sensitive to voltage and heat i wouldnt recommend doing that

it's easy to degrade your silicon which means youll need more and more voltage for the same frequency over time

[gilded quest]

higher voltage means more power used

voltage is squared when calculating the power a transistor uses

whereas frequency is linear

[keen sequoia]

so 3.9 Ghz is no go?

[azure falcon]

This will be pretty neat might have someone that's youtube famous at a weekend party I'll be throwing

[night heron]

3.7 or 3.8 is usually the best spot to have ryzen 1000 at

which is what your chip boosts to out of box already

[rapid stone]

I need a good CPU cooler that will not take all the space in my computer case and last more than 2 years, the current one isn't good since day one.

Bequiet Dark Rock Pro 4 sucks 😞
Looking for fast replacement

[full fossil]

Bequiet is one of the more reputable brands, did you get a lemon and just not replace it

[real basin]

what CPU are you on and do you ever run it at full blast

[weak sonnet]

I'd imagine the issue could lean more towards improper installation or thermal compound coverage

[tardy terrace]

I've got the pro 3 and it's the best air cooler i've owned, so 🤨

[leaden gale]

Dark Rock Pro 4 is one of the most highly rated air coolers on the market. Are you sure your sample is mounted properly and isn't defective?

[full fossil]

noctua nhl9i

super low profile cools 65w rated chips like a beast

noctua is known for quality too, will probably outlast any other brand

[pulsar violet]

Just found out that my monitor has drivers that I should install, I was running off of normal 2006 windows drivers

And I got access to a custom colour profile now

[vapid smelt]

Hi jake! sorry i was sleeping

[pulsar violet]

I'm doing that to all my monitors now

[rapid stone]

Yes, all mounted correctly

[leaden gale]

What CPU

[rapid stone]

Tried once to run it on 4.3ghz for a week but this cooler couldn't handle it.

Now I'm on idle 53©️
Ryzen 9 3950x

My friend had issues with dark rock pro 4 too, his computer always freezed till he moved to different cooling

[rapid stone]

I had one of their cooling solutions on my old i7 4770 till the MB died due a lot of outages

[real basin]

i have heard that apparently recently purchased DRP4s suck ass for whatever reasons. I'm gonna guess that another double-tower air cooler of some kind, probably a Deepcool AK620 or Thermalright Peerless Assassin, would be fine as a replacement

[vapid smelt]

i bought my drp4 in 2019 i love it but now we have so many good and cheap options

[rapid stone]

Btw does artic mx-4 Thermal paste good ?

[rapid stone]

Bought it at the end of 2019 and at the beginning 2020, my bios always complaining about this fan, I can see and feel it moving and working but it does nothing but spinning, CPU always between 53 to 65 on idle

[leaden gale]

Yes, MX-4 is the best price-to-performance paste

If you really want an AIO, just go for the Arctic Liquid Freezer II and use the AM4 offset mount for Ryzen 3000/5000

Get a 240mm or 280mm model

[rapid stone]

My case is factal design 6 I think

I thought to put the radiator on the front of the case does it recommend?

[leaden gale]

Did you mean the Fractal Design Define R6?

[lucid echo]

my bios always complaining about this fan
The BIOS usually complains about the CPU fan if it's not plugged into the right header

[leaden gale]

We need to know the exact model to be able to tell you what your mounting options are

[rapid stone]

Yea

[eager venture]

Is it normal for the windows terminal to pop up when I open up my laptop each time?

[lucid echo]

No it is not

[leaden gale]

Front of the case is fine, but top of the case is even better

[rapid stone]

Connected to the right place checked it thousand times, this cooler just sucks.

Btw what the best way to pull the CPU fan without pulling out the CPU 😁
I guess to heat the place that the thermal paste will melt and it'll be easier to release it, right ?

[lucid echo]

Post in #1027757333117415424 to get some guidance on virus removal / checking startup programs, gonna be a messy convo to have in public chat

[rapid stone]

So I'll need to find a way to take off the top of the case since there is a piece of medal on top

[leaden gale]

Check Fractal's own instructions and specifications for radiator mounting options: https://www.fractal-design.com/products/cases/define/define-r6/blackout/

[rapid stone]

I have the papers of it in my second room 😁
I'll take a look on it after I get my new cooler

[rapid stone]

This CPU cooler will last for more than 2 years ?

[leaden gale]

The cooler comes with a 6 year warranty, so yes

[rapid stone]

There are 2 coolers with that name 🤔

[leaden gale]

There's more than 2 coolers with that name, but the only difference between the SKUs is radiator size and whether or not it has RGB

For a 3950X, I'd recommend the Liquid Freezer II 240 or 280 or 360

Whether or not you want LED lighting is up to you

[rugged bridge]

the fact that i was just able to compress a 20gb video file into a 1.7gb file with no visable or hearable diffrence is crazy

[full fossil]

anyone know a good place i can buy a affordable pc that can run the isle 60fps

[steep girder]

With loss no doubt

[lucid echo]

Ask #build-a-pc and give a specific budget & region you live. "Affordable" is subjective
Good luck!

[full fossil]

ok thx

[steep girder]

Yeah there are a bunch of things you can sacrifice like color depth and its not really visible or problematic. Other things can be dreck like 5 second key frame and compression enough to leave trails and imprint of that frame lol

[rugged bridge]

yea but there is not much visable difference
like i know the audio bitrate was crazy high from like 3000kbps to 192kbps

[steep girder]

Audio just do 320kbps stereo

Its not a big deal

[rugged bridge]

usually what i do
but trying to conserve space, so 192 is fine

[rapid stone]

It's only 2 fans on it?

[leaden gale]

The 240 and 280 models have only 2 fans on them, yes. They're 120mm and 140mm fans respectively.

The 360 model has 3 120mm fans on it.

[steep girder]

320 kbps i think is no more than 200 or 300MB 80min

[rugged bridge]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[steep girder]

But noticeable diff if you had lossless quality track before

mp3 i generally go no lower than 320

[rugged bridge]

im not gonna be watching it so idc lol
plus the person its for is only gonna be watching on their phone so there is basically no point

[steep girder]

Fair enough lmfao

Do joint stereo or mono somehow too

Dentist: Hey wanna get wisdom teeth removed?
Patient: Teeth?! Which ones and what's wrong with them
Dentist (always having nothing else to argue): You don't need them at all and theyre the hardest to brush properly. As long as you have them, they are the most likely to get cavities statistically in everyone.
Patient: So you would advise me to pull them because it's the better choice?
Dentist (pulling out debit machine): Yeah!

Patient: Reported

2 years later though fml who can make emergency appointment my wisdom tooth is causing eye infection lmao. My surgeon lost license.

New dental surgeon: It's far better to take ketamine and/or laughing gas until you pass out
Patient: Fk yeah! And it's actual medical advice this time

But seriously i hear that story occasionally where people get even persuaded to be better off with wisdom teeth pulled asap. The reason is only you dont need them as in you wont be missing anything. Plus if you dont brush properly, theyll get infected. I'd wager the real motivation is billing you. Isn't that technically malpractice in the most fundamental way?

[cosmic ore]

In the US at least it gets billed to insurance, not to the dentist, so I doubt the dentist is directly profiting off of it

Also dentists frequently advise for the surgery if they can see that the teeth will be growing in impacted or if the mouth is too small for them and will cause future chronic pain if not removed

[full fossil]

For most people it’s also barely even a surgery
It’s numbing meds, ripping them out, and done

Finished my desk today. Went from naked butcherblock countertop to this. First time I've used a router(woodworking not networking) to round over edges and cut slots for filler pieces for old monitor mounts and using stand and sealers

Cool set up also!

[hollow pulsar]

The dentist isn’t paying for it. The patient and/or insurance is. Dentist is absolutely making money on the procedure.

this is bad, and you should feel bad.

I'm not mad, you are clearly insane

[tardy terrace]

tbh i can relate, it was the first legit OS purchase I made when I built my first legitimate gaming pc from all new parts

[novel tendon]

Yeah sure
Even people saying their favourite os is windows 11 can be taken more serious than you

[manic torrent]

I can't relate, my first OS I ran games on was CP/M

My favourite OS is templeOS

[novel tendon]

Exactly

[manic torrent]

yeah this is a shit take

[novel tendon]

8.1 had so many bugs
Like I downright installed windows 7 instead

Oh yeah after windows 10 was released

[manic torrent]

wow, you're just vomiting up anecdotes and spitting them like facts

[tight gulch]

I haven't encountered a single big with windows 8.1

[novel tendon]

Only till the end of 2023

I'm taking about when windows 10 wasn't released

25 bucks for a gtx 950

pretty good deal id say

[halcyon lagoon]

That depends on the person and situation. I drink alcohol but it's on a rare basis and that's just to have a glass or two something to relax me after a stressful week or month

[golden talon]

so optimized

but that goes back to the value proposition of what you do with a gtx 950

at that point you're probably entering modern integrated graphics performance range

[novel tendon]

Yeah but I'm perfect everyday

Unless something very bad happens
I'm always happy and because of that I don't need alcohol/any drugs or mood changers

[tardy terrace]

Ah yes the "high & mighty" argument

[halcyon lagoon]

I don't as well that's why I rarely drink it's just like that a glass or two just to relax and it will be months in between of me drinking anything so

Ohhh, like caffeine.

[novel tendon]

Yeah

[halcyon lagoon]

And like sugar

[novel tendon]

😐

[manic torrent]

Sugar is not a drug.

[novel tendon]

Caffeine is also a drug and something that is in coffee

[vapid smelt]

and soda

[manic torrent]

Whoa caffeine in coffee?! Damn

[manic torrent]

And me

[novel tendon]

Yeah but there is more caffeine in tea than coffee

[halcyon lagoon]

Sugar has been classified by the FDA as a addictive substance so it can be

[novel tendon]

Addictive ≠ drug

Smoking is addictive
Is it a drug?

[halcyon lagoon]

Bob you just yell at people on here

Not all substances are drugs

[eager venture]

Smoking is the act of when u smoke the drug

[novel tendon]

Exactly

[novel tendon]

No I mean smoking the enemy team in cs2

[pearl remnant]

I smoke meat. It's addictive

[novel tendon]

It's pretty addictive ngl

I respect moms

[novel tendon]

I don't know how we got to normalise insulting totally innocent parents but I'm not a huge fan of it

[manic torrent]

incorrect, it's far more complex

[halcyon lagoon]

I know I am

[manic torrent]

millions of people everywhere are addicted to caffeine

[halcyon lagoon]

Well it's a good thing I stopped drinking coffee as a kid and that's not a joke

[manic torrent]

I mean, chemical addiction isn't implicitly bad

[novel tendon]

Does it count as an addiction if I only drink it when I miss coffee? Like once a month?

[novel tendon]

Yeah but often they have side effects

[halcyon lagoon]

Do you get the shakes?

[long tangle]

does it count as an addiction if i drink 4 cups daily?

[novel tendon]

No
I just drink coffee and I enjoy it and then I go back to my normal day

[wispy marsh]

Pure oxygen is extremely harsh on the lungs and might make conditions worse for the patient

[halcyon lagoon]

But if you hold your breath, you got 2 minutes left. Everytime you breathe, that timer resets back to 2 minutes

[novel tendon]

Yeah
That's what I said
It kills you slowly with low doses every breath you take

[novel tendon]

Actually
Not true
We are just not efficient enough to work with the little energy that our body makes without oxygen

[wispy marsh]

Headings

• Person
• Qualities
• Events that proved those qualities
• How it made me felt then
• What do I think caused events
• How I feel about it now
• Why do I feel that way now

[manic torrent]

I have and can, but not as a headline act.

[novel tendon]

Uhhhhhh
does getting hit in the sack count?

Also my DIY fan makes my phone's temperature drop like 10°c

[vapid smelt]

does getting filleted like a fish count?

[wispy marsh]

Hitting you in the sack would definitely make me feel better

And no, I don't like vore

[misty tartan]

Arch ios file not showing up in "choosr a virtual optical disk file"

[manic torrent]

ehhhh. "how long you have left" isn't a good metric - I mean it's not GOOD, but you can be revived after a long time in the right circumstances

[novel tendon]

No I mean
Can I submit me getting hit in there to your database or does it have to be your which has experienced the pain to make it to the database?

[wispy marsh]

It's mine and mine only

[novel tendon]

Meanie

[wispy marsh]

Go make your own

[novel tendon]

Too lazy for that

I'll tell chat gpt to make one for me

[wispy marsh]

It's just a spreadsheet with multiple tables

[median osprey]

has linus ever said what browser he recommends the most

[slow fern]

Should i get a 6600xt for 180$ or 2080ti for 300$

[halcyon lagoon]

He uses chrome like all of us

[median osprey]

i thought chrome wasnt doing good recently?

[wispy marsh]

6900XT for $500

[vapid smelt]

4090 for $1,800

[shut maple]

Go for 4090

[slow fern]

Wish i had that kind of money to spend

[wispy marsh]

That's a Herman Miller Aeron Remastered

[shut maple]

I'm using 12600k with no gpu lol

[wispy marsh]

for $1800 I'd take an Aeron that has 12y of warranty

[slow fern]

Damn 💀

Im currently running a 980ti build 💀

[tardy terrace]

2080ti. hands down.

[wispy marsh]

^

[vapid smelt]

rx 6700xt is $340

[wispy marsh]

2080ti has about 3060 performance but with 11gb

[halcyon lagoon]

2070 max-q

[wispy marsh]

Granted the 3060 has more vram but that's also another price point

[vapid smelt]

3070*

[tardy terrace]

[wispy marsh]

Makes $300 really mouth-watering

[misty tartan]

Bro where the proud arch users at

[wispy marsh]

[misty tartan]

So hard to find them

[vapid smelt]

#linux

[wispy marsh]

@slow fern click the benchmark above

[misty tartan]

Its been dead for 15 mins
Maybe eveyone say they use arch but got no idea how it works

[shut maple]

Me debian user

[halcyon lagoon]

Well arch Linux is a bleeding edge distro

[misty tartan]

You know how vm works?!

[tardy terrace]

I'm not giving up my 2080ti for a long time because it is perfect for my 1440p needs

[shut maple]

Never tried vm
I use Ubuntu as my main

[tame mirage]

Did I get banned from LTT Merch? The channel seems to have disappeared for me?

[misty tartan]

[halcyon lagoon]

Ubuntu on my servers and windows on my computer

[slow fern]

hm inchresting

[halcyon lagoon]

2 that are 22.10 and one 22.04 lts and Ubuntu pro

[edgy moss]

Ive seen some as low as 300 for used

[slow fern]

now i just gotta sell my 980ti after buying the 2080ti

[edgy moss]

some even below 300

[slow fern]

gpu prices have been crazy low here since the past 2 weeks

i guess miners are finally dumping their cards

[wispy marsh]

Nice

[fallen cedar]

have been for a while, at least here, what is crazy low to you? find some good deals?

[wispy marsh]

I picked up my 6800XT for $930 twelve months ago

[vapid smelt]

you fool

[slow fern]

180$ for a barely used 6600xt which is basically the cost of one family dinner here and 290$ for a 2080ti

[wispy marsh]

I had to transfer away my vega64 and $930 looked better than $1200

[slow fern]

saw 2 ads for 2080ti's at the same price , one got sold sadly

[wispy marsh]

Is the 2080ti working?

[slow fern]

i remember the time i posted my 980ti for 300$ and people were ready to buy instantly

[slow fern]

yepp

[wispy marsh]

If I needed a good gpu, I'd grab it asap

[slow fern]

tbh i would've already grabbed the gpu but im travelling in a week so I won't be able to use it much since i cant take the pc on the flight

[edgy moss]

people sleep on the 6700xt

[wispy marsh]

Still a good buy imo

[edgy moss]

leaves the 2080ti in the (relative) dust and is probably cheaper used

[full fossil]

Yo

[rugged bridge]

yall what do you think of this so far?
also i need more clips pls haha

[slow fern]

would a 650W PSU be enough to power it tho , my cpu's definitely gonna bottleneck the gpu since its a 3200G

gotta get a new cpu too

[wispy marsh]

Prolly

[slow fern]

tbh at that point , i should just get a new gaming laptop since its better on the go

[wispy marsh]

My 700w powers a 5800X3D and 6800XT without problems

[tardy terrace]

2080ti can pull 300w easily with a few tweaks to the sliders in afterburner

[fallen cedar]

its pretty good but im more curious what editing software that is

[rugged bridge]

filmora

[fallen cedar]

hmm

[slow fern]

hm i dont really have power hungry components in my pc , i built it during the peak pc parts shortage time and it did pretty well for 1080p gaming but now I feel like its time to upgrade

[rugged bridge]

here is just the video
i think its pretty good but i ran out of clips at almost the best part haha

[fluid ridge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Fle55mZ_WQ what is the song at the beginning of this video

LTT did not credit it in the description

it sounds like fur elise

[rugged bridge]

indeed it does

plot twist: they made it themself

[vapid smelt]

what do teeth taste like?

[rugged bridge]

cartilage

wait
idk i think thats completely wrong
uh bones maybe

[fluid ridge]

do they have the capability or the expertise to make it themselves

i really want to know, the song is fire

[rugged bridge]

idk
you might be able to try asking on the forums lol

[fluid ridge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSoVz6LPgPs yeah it's definitely fur elise

[rugged bridge]

this dubstep remix is better ngl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvFZjo5PgG0

[fluid ridge]

[tiny saffron]

I'm on phone so the only thing i can hear in the background reminds me of hydraulic press noises

[rugged bridge]

ayo no way

[fluid ridge]

fur elise has never not been cool

legend has it that mozart fell in love with a girl so he wrote fur elise's beginning to let her play, but then she went and fucked another dude so he made it really hard in the end so she couldn't play it

[halcyon lagoon]

You're just not as hip as jaytwocentz is

[fluid ridge]

also wasn't mozart blind and deaf at the same time or some shit bro had some talent

[tiny saffron]

Thats beethoven no?

[fluid ridge]

either way an absolute menace thing to do

imagine holding the world record for push ups while having no arms, basically what beethoven did with music

[tiny saffron]

Beethoven was a proven legend

[manic torrent]

Barbers Adagio for strings.

[rugged bridge]

🤔

holy shit i've heard this before

[manic torrent]

https://youtu.be/VIbIHxKh9bk

[rugged bridge]

THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING OF

KNEW I HAD IT ON MY MUSIC SERVER SOMEWHERE

[slow fern]

the guy ended up agreeing on 260$ for the 2080ti

crazy

[smoky zealot]

Does anyone know how to set up your Razer keyboard and mouse to automatically start doing lighting effects when you open up certain games?

[rugged bridge]

yes, buy multiple keyboards and plug each seperate one in when u wanna play that game

[runic lagoon]

nvidea is digging their own grave by gouging the market.

but at least you got a card

[smoky zealot]

im lost it used to do it on its own now it dosent

like for apex terraira ect

[fluid ridge]

disagree

[slow fern]

i couldnt even dream of owning a 2080ti lmao

[fluid ridge]

nvidia is probably building up their empire even more lmao

[runic lagoon]

in syanpse, connect tab. you can enable chroma paps,a nd link apps

[rugged bridge]

yea idk how that stuff works, i dont own a razar keyboard.
quite frankly, i dont see why you'd want to do that in the first place lol

[slow fern]

crazy how low gpus are now

[fluid ridge]

a 2080ti is pretty low end now compared to the rest of what's available

[full fossil]

Overplayed as hell tho

[slow fern]

i saw a 3080ti for 400$

[smoky zealot]

because it add lighting effects to ypur game?

[slow fern]

but for 260$ , you really cant complain

[runic lagoon]

apple litterly ditched them, AMD is building around them. console manufactures won't touch them.

[fluid ridge]

yesterday's flagship is today's average consumer card

apple ditched them years ago lol, and they ditched AMD too for their M series lineup

[slow fern]

better than owning a 7 year old 980ti

( that i got for free )

[fluid ridge]

and honestly do console manufacturers matter even

nvidia is catering to datacenters and big servers, where the real $$ is at

the rise of AI is going to drive $NVDA to the moon 🙌 💎 🚀

over the last 6 months nvidia's stock price has more than doubled

[manic torrent]

Stock price is not meaningful

[fluid ridge]

true too

but one of the only good indicators as to how well a company is doing

[manic torrent]

Yeah nah. As triage said, Nvidia are smashing ai hard.

[static aurora]

Yow, Anyone got matching wallpaper that has 1920x1080 and 1080x1920 resolution?

[full fossil]

Was the /r/Google server hacked?

[manic torrent]

Oh, don't get me wrong, Nvidia has AI wrapped up

[fluid ridge]

do you have wallpaper engine

[manic torrent]

I get all my wallpapers from digital blasphemy

[static aurora]

Yeah but I don't want wallpaper engine to affect the pc's performance while playing

[manic torrent]

And then use display fusion to scale and match them

[static aurora]

is that on google?

[fluid ridge]

wallpaper engine has minimal effect on gaming performance

[manic torrent]

.....

[fluid ridge]

it stops the wallpaper once you're no longer on the desktop

[static aurora]

just kidding with ya I know how to search

[static aurora]

really? didn't know that

Thanks for the info

[fluid ridge]

yeah

[rugged bridge]

my wallpaper engine

[fluid ridge]

i would post mine but i got no image perms

[vapid smelt]

losing performance for a wall paper engine smh

[rugged bridge]

i actually only recently switched to this one, i used to use this
