it is very cool

[sonic barn]

Heresy

All furries I know are deviants

[dreamy rose]

nah they just chillin, nothing wrong there

[sonic barn]

I was one myself

[summer folio]

A shorts platform
But you have to pay to be able to use it.
So you get rid of lesser wanted demographics.

[sonic barn]

They are literal deviants

[dreamy rose]

they dont all live in DeviantArt

[sonic barn]

Some do

[dreamy rose]

not all.

[summer folio]

I thought DevianArt was for Yaoi only

[dreamy rose]

its for any Rabbit hole you dare to go down. or not.

[sonic barn]

If you check their subreddits you'll see what the community is

[summer folio]

what, warshipped

Oh, no degeneracy allowed

[dreamy rose]

i've been around for a long time, ik what the community is like

[summer folio]

🚢

[dreamy rose]

here lemme fix it for you.

🔫 🛳️

[full fossil]

I can promise you their community is engineers and programming nerds smart as fuck people

[dreamy rose]

they run the internet fr

[sonic barn]

I was in it for 3 years, I have nothing against the concept of furries. But the nature of the community has a problem

[summer folio]

Both Linus & XqC is canadian & based/righty ig.
Is all Canadian this way?

[sonic barn]

I don't support the community at all. Everyone has some mental issue and wants to push their fantasies on kids or others

[summer folio]

How is plural of the word allowed but not singular?

[sonic barn]

For discussing this exact issue

[dreamy rose]

the bullshit around "Closed Species" and being massive drama queens, main issues.

[sonic barn]

No, grooming

[summer folio]

But, how would/could you even know plural would be allowed. xD

[ionic flame]

Is there a way to stress test a motherboard or test a motherboard to see if it's causing the issue?

[dreamy rose]

like FR you dont own a physical trait on animal.

[summer folio]

it's easy, change the motherboard, trial n error

[ionic flame]

That's what I figured... poop

[dreamy rose]

that's not a problem i hear about super often. it absolutely exists. but its not a Widespread thing like people would like you to think.

[full fossil]

Man you’d have a field day complaining about churches then

[summer folio]

But you have to groom, otherwise pets fur becomes too knoty? 🪢

[ionic flame]

Northbridge is what controls the memory on the motherboard right? Is it common for the northbridge to crap out?

[unkempt widget]

???

that's just straight up bullshit

[summer folio]

Back in the day atleast, I think CPU controls it now(clueless)

[summer folio]

"Where is the memory controller functionality located now?
With modern CPUs the memory controller is built directly into the CPU itself, which means different types of CPUs may support different speeds of memory."

[dreamy rose]

there are people into doing really bad shit. but its not a Massive problem.

[full fossil]

Every community has bad people
Those people should be ostracized

[karmic flame]

Lets change the subject please

[full fossil]

Thank you

[unkempt widget]

ok

[pine whale]

idek what the subject is 🗿

[full fossil]

I’m making bread (:

[unkempt widget]

i'll dm

[full fossil]

The yeast is starting to bubble!

[dreamy rose]

[pine whale]

yall sure like deleting random messages tho

[dreamy rose]

nah, its Warship having fun

[unkempt widget]

mods told him to change subject, he didn't

[full fossil]

…can I talk about bread?

[pine whale]

XqC? is shitposting or memes how?

[dreamy rose]

you can talk about Radeon.

[neon mesa]

Public chat has definitely seen worse off topic offense

[ionic flame]

What's the chances that a 12900K dies after 4 months of use though... very strange

[pine whale]

12900000

[dreamy rose]

fr its like they forgot to make the video or something.

[full fossil]

EXTREMELY low

Cpus don’t really die often

[ionic flame]

Just super weird stuff happening

[pine whale]

hackermans

[dreamy rose]

i'd say just about probable enough. though i guess it'd be a sign to use Ryzen

[ionic flame]

Yeah, and i'm at 27c and it sits around 38-40c when gaming.

[karmic flame]

You would have a better chance of winning the lottery 10x in a row.. Thats assuming no outside forces were involved. Such as power spikes or other failed hardware such as PSU, motherboard.

[full fossil]

That’s really low

[neon mesa]

Lottery 10x is a stretch

[full fossil]

I mean if you’re just on air cooling, too low to make sense

[dreamy rose]

no. -10 is low.

[summer folio]

Langley got a weirdly extrem trust in CPU's.

[neon mesa]

Winning a lottery is like astronomically low

[ionic flame]

It's an AIO cooler, and it's been 70f in my house.

[neon mesa]

Winning 10 consecutively is basically not possible

[full fossil]

Ah well if it’s a good 360 rad could make sense

[dreamy rose]

what if i buy all the tickets?

[neon mesa]

That assumes you have the money

[summer folio]

it sounds too low

[neon mesa]

Though if you buy all the ticket, is it lottery at that point

[summer folio]

It's an intel after all

[dreamy rose]

yes. but i Win

[ionic flame]

Reseated CPU + Cooler because of known 12th gen clamping overheating issues. (NO fix)

Tried 2 different sets of memory + both channels on MOBO (no fix)

Reset bios (no fix)

Problem happens at cool temps + hot temps / randomly.

PC will most often just crash/freeze like it's a memory error.

So bad mobo or bad cpu?

[full fossil]

Did you fresh install windows? Reinstall/reset/update bios? Install chipset drivers?

[ionic flame]

It happens in bios as well as on like memtest and stuff. So windows isn't involved

[full fossil]

Oof yeah that’s no bueno
Your cpu should still be under warranty

[ionic flame]

I hope so, if it's the mobo this would also be Asus Mobo #2 this year.

First one died, and I was to lazy to RMA it, it was DOA, and this one worked and I just used it and now it's causing this BS

[karmic flame]

You running xmp?

[ionic flame]

I'm pretty sure it isn't a cpu clamping issue though because I can pull/twist on the cooler when the PC is running and it doesn't happen. I thought maybe the LGA clamp was causing issues but i'm pretty certain it isn't.

No not running XMP, this board doesn't support my memory's full speed. So it's running at default/lowered speeds. Both memory sets are the same G-Skill DDR5 6400 set. Mobo will just default them to like 4000 or something

[full fossil]

It might be tbh
There’s a chance your pins aren’t making full contact

That bracket does more than just reduce cpu temps

How are you mounting your cooler? Tightening in an x pattern a little bit at a time?

[ionic flame]

I agree, but wouldn't my pulling/twisted/slapping(like its a porkchop) and it not happen see that through?

Yes tightening in an X pattern, a little bit at a time

I turned my PC on it's side so gravity is pushing the CPU isn't itself.. if this solves the issue that would confirm the clamp thing being the issue I guess

[full fossil]

How easy/ difficult is it to deal with razer customer support? H key stopped working in my blackwidow v3 and now I'm stuck

[ionic flame]

Prettygood

[raven pelican]

average razer qa

[sonic barn]

Awful

Their support sent a new charger for my blade and it had tons of damage in shipping

Like a big deep scratch and they refused to send another

[wispy marsh]

If you didn't specify razer blade I would've zero clue as to what the context was

Also, razer's ceo is singaporean, so he's profit-centric

[austere kernel]

anyone who can help me installing windows

[civic fiber]

maybe...

[austere kernel]

call ?

because it stuck

in blue screen

[civic fiber]

sure... I'm eating cereal rn so fair warning...

[ionic flame]

Oh, in regards to my PC breaking... it also the day of, we had a small storm in the area and then my PC started being weird. But i'm plugged into a power strip.

[civic fiber]

not all power strips have surge protection.

[ionic flame]

this one does, 100%

[wispy marsh]

You know what does have surge protection?

Jackery, our sponsor!

[civic fiber]

what was it?

[ionic flame]

This is a GE branded outlet

It literally says "Protected" & "Grounded* lights

[civic fiber]

ready when you are

[tired glade]

What warranty it gives?

[civic fiber]

outlet?

[ionic flame]

surge protector, sorry

[civic fiber]

okay, and what is it rated for?

[ionic flame]

and i'm not sure on the warranty, but maybe just a small concidence

[tired glade]

Do you have papers?

[civic fiber]

not all surge protectors are created equal...

[tired glade]

Or,at least,name

[austere kernel]

wait friend's light is out

[civic fiber]

what?... ok

[ionic flame]

but here is the other thing.. nothing else in our house is affected. not the tv, xbox, internet, anything. and none of that is even plugged into a surge protector

[austere kernel]

in india it's common except some cities

[civic fiber]

oh ok

[civic fiber]

how old is the surge protector?\

[ionic flame]

couple years

[civic fiber]

was there anything else plugged into it?

[tired glade]

Sounds like something tripped in PSU

[wispy marsh]

Sounds like a user problem

[civic fiber]

ouch...

[ionic flame]

Yes, my monitor is plugged into it

[tardy terrace]

Sounds like I still can't believe it's not Chuck Testa

[civic fiber]

ok is it having any issues?

[ionic flame]

Nope

[civic fiber]

ok

[ionic flame]

And it PC isn't fully turning off, it just bluescreens with memory related errors

[civic fiber]

did you have a lightning storm recently?

[tardy terrace]

Clear cmos, reseat ram/cpu, etc

[ionic flame]

Yesterday

[civic fiber]

then this happened?

[ionic flame]

Yes

Before that PC was 100% fine AFAIK

[tardy terrace]

How close was said lightning storm

[civic fiber]

was it on during the storm?

[floral scroll]

do we have a Colton talking about Linus?

[civic fiber]

?

[ionic flame]

Idk, I was at work, wife said she saw lightning in this area

[floral scroll]

new video where they are talking about Linus - i just want to watch Colton talking

[ionic flame]

And i'm not sure if it was on during the storm or not, I think I turned it off yesterday before I left for work. But I honestly don't know

[tardy terrace]

Clear cmos, reseat ram/cpu, etc

[civic fiber]

well... what does the ram look like,,, is it seated all the way?

[ionic flame]

I have cleared cmos, reset ram, reseated cpu, monitored temps, tried different ram channels

Yes ram is fully seated all the way. I can wiggle on it when PC is on and nothing happens.

[civic fiber]

well my friend its either your mother board or your ram,,, somthing got fried...

[tardy terrace]

I mean it's possible that the lightning struck close enough, but if it's on a protected & grounded power strip, there shouldn't have been any damage.

even if overhead lines are struck, they're grounded pretty damn fast

[ionic flame]

I tried different ram as well and same issues

[civic fiber]

do you have a model number for that surge protector?

[civic fiber]

mother board...

[tardy terrace]

your cpu might be ready to kick the bucket

[ionic flame]

ps-100f-2a

[civic fiber]

if its old enogh...

[ionic flame]

CPU is 4-5 months old

[tardy terrace]

It's worth trying a cheap cpu that'll work on your platform to validate everything else is working

[ionic flame]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/314150593686

I have a 12th gen intel setup nothing is cheap lol

[civic fiber]

im not finding it online...

[ionic flame]

It's this https://www.amazon.com/GE-UltraPro-Protector-Extension-14096/dp/B00DOMYK4I?th=1

[tardy terrace]

I don't even see a circuit breaker on this

did your house encounter any lights flickering or brownouts/loss of power during the storm?

[ionic flame]

It did not

[civic fiber]

if it is protected then it may only be half of them that are protected...

[ionic flame]

the monitor was plugged into the same half as the PC

[tardy terrace]

And the monitor's fine?

[ionic flame]

Monitor is fine

"Hello Valued Customer, thank you for your question. Our GE UltraPro Surge Protector features 2 indicator lights that will illuminate if the device is protected. If the surge protection expires, the indicator light will turn off. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to respond or give us a call between the hours of 7:00 AM – 8:00 PM Central Standard Time, Monday thru Friday at 1-800-654-8483. Thank you. see less"

[tardy terrace]

honestly I'd give it a sub-5% that the storm did anything to your hardware. I'd really try testing with a 12400 to see what's still wrong, then just return it

[ionic flame]

That's a possiblity

[civic fiber]

do you live near micro center?

they can test it for you.

2TB only? That's like what.. one Warzone update?

[manic torrent]

My OLED is weak specs, only 120hz

[heady flicker]

no one would buy it at $300 lol

it's a qlc drive with bad endurance rating

[manic torrent]

.... how much capital gain did you make.

[sonic barn]

I have to do t1, t5, t4 and school one

[sonic barn]

some are gains, some are loses I have to do each trade

and there's a ton, wealthsimple can't import it

and then I have questrade which won't import

[manic torrent]

So what you're saying is that you've done things you don't understand the tax implications of

[sonic barn]

yes

does gov want moneys? Why don't they teach me

[tardy terrace]

Please stop what you are doing and go to an expert.

[sonic barn]

no

I could instead buy nitro for 2 years

which I don't want anyways

[tardy terrace]

or owe thousands, get audited, etc

[manic torrent]

OR you could buy mad weed and get totally baked

[sonic barn]

[spare trout]

I lost to myself in a game of bayblades

[heady flicker]

if you've ever taken physics

the bayblade that has the most rotational energy wins

[dusty rune]

what about the L drago

which steals the rotational energy

[heady flicker]

is that the one that spins the other direction

[dusty rune]

yes

[heady flicker]

eh

not efficient

[dusty rune]

its legit better tho

[fluid ridge]

msi doesn't make gpus

[dull tapir]

actually it also depends on the weight and material

[dusty rune]

AIB

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/PMMZmWdlZdI look how cool it is

[dull tapir]

i had a beylade made purely out of metal and none of original came close as this custom made

[heady flicker]

yeah that's the point

[dull tapir]

but all the factors contribute to the energy yes

[heady flicker]

rotational energy is based on mass, tangential velocity, and radius

[dusty rune]

gains speed!

[dull tapir]

since a lot of people only say rpm

[heady flicker]

or 1/2(rotational inertia*rotational speed^2)

[dusty rune]

i want a meteo l drago

[dull tapir]

but rpm without the rest of factors is not a major factor

[heady flicker]

to gain even more advantage, use larger gears on whatever you use to launch the bayblade

so you can spin it faster with combination of a smaller gear attached to the larger gear

[dull tapir]

i would really like to see beyblade return in tournaments with custom built beyblades like robot fights

what are called robot battles with saws

[empty iris]

Yeah they do

[dull tapir]

but do they make them or design them

[dusty rune]

i dont know but theyre sick

[fluid ridge]

no they don't, Nvidia designed that GPU and TSMC manufactured it, Nvidia bought it from TSMC, MSI bought it from nvidia and slapped a case on it

[dull tapir]

ikr i used to watch them with friends during late nights with drinks and popcorn

[fluid ridge]

MSI is a phone case maker, not a phone maker

[dusty rune]

i have only seen one cause it was on my FYP, but it was sick

[dull tapir]

interesting there are a ton

[stray apex]

no?
MSI got the chip and possibly the memory from nvidia, and then designed the rest of the board

[dusty rune]

under heavy restrictions

[stray apex]

it's like saying any phone manufacturer that doesn't design and fab their own SoC isn't a real phone manufacturer

[empty iris]

That's what I mean

[fluid ridge]

they took a premade device, the GPU is already there, and slapped their own proprietary fan, case, rgb, branding, whatever onto it like all of the board partners do, because only nvidia and tsmc "make" the gpu

[stray apex]

uh, no

if you bought a gpu die from nvidia
you couldn't do shit with it

[heady flicker]

they're called board partners for a reason

[stray apex]

they design and build boards

[fluid ridge]

but the graphics processing unit is still designed by nvidia and manufactured by TSMC

[stray apex]

so?
the AIBs are the ones actually building the expansion card

[fluid ridge]

the chip itself, which is what makes the GPU a GPU made by the same 2 or 3 mega corporations

my point is MSI does not "make" 3060s, Nvidia and TSMC do

[empty iris]

It's like the Ford F-series trucks sold as bare frames. You buy the frame/engine and then add whatever you need it to be onto it.

[fluid ridge]

they perhaps add aforementioned things onto it

[fluid ridge]

the frame and the engine is what makes a f150 an f150, a different paint job or cab size doesn't really matter

[stray apex]

no, it's like how qualcomm makes snapdragon SoCs, but not phones

[empty iris]

Yeah that's a more technological metaphor for it

[fossil frost]

the recent video on those shitty android tv boxes made me realise that i have 2 of those shitty boxes in a draw downstairs that i dont use anymore... 2gb ram, amlogic 905x, 8gb rom (not that i am going to be using it)... build myself a libreelec image, flashed to SD, did a system update with that... got rid of shitty possibly malware infested OS, now running kodi on LE with it 🙂

usb hdd attached, with a remote and a hdmi cable, perfect travel tv system.. just hdmi it into the hotel tv, and away you go, no relying on built in smart features that supports very very very specific mp4 specs

[echo canopy]

The die is literally the same across all X skew gpus. The only difference is the silicon lottery or random bullshit like the KO series. It’s made by nvidia and tsmc/Samsung and only they have a say over them.

The motherboard is made by the AIB under guidance from nvidia. They do have restrictions they apply on partners

[dusty rune]

imagine they didnt tho

[echo canopy]

We would have slightly better cards and that would be the end of it

So yeah, MSI pretty much makes a “prebuilt” and nothing else

[fossil frost]

the same gpu spec being sent to different fabs would likely produce drastically different performing gpus, even on the "same node" at different fab factories, you get differences, so it wouldnt be good... and other companies making the gpu, that is essentially designing and creating your own gpu, like intel just did

[echo canopy]

In some cases doing it on different nodes would be impossible without a rework as a LOT of things don’t scale the same

Even a “node shrink” requires a near total redesign

[fossil frost]

yeah, nvidia would have to design a gpu based on the knowledge that TSCM are building it, and building it on a particular node tech

Afternoon

[summer folio]

God afton

Make Wan show twice a week.

[gilded quest]

24 hour wan when

[full fossil]

you guys ever spend 2000$ on a computer only to use Windows Media Player

[gilded quest]

no because who the fuck uses windows media player

[full fossil]

i do

[gilded quest]

i only use chrome like a sane person on my $2k pc

i lied
im actually using edge

[fluid ridge]

VLC or MPV.net supremacy

[summer folio]

MPC-HC.

23:37 EU.

[fluid ridge]

im not sure, people say mpv has better quality but the UI is DOO DOO

[fossil frost]

hasnt that been dead for a few years now?

[summer folio]

How can it die?
it's not a MMO

[fossil frost]

the 1 developer said "fuck that" and stopped doing anything to it, and its been left alone with no security or feature updates

[fluid ridge]

hey man if it works it works

my computer is a trove of dead software projects that are probably massive security vulnerabilities but i sleep safe knowing I use nord vpn™️

[echo canopy]

MPV

[echo canopy]

MPV has really good default filters as well as support for opengl shaders for better filtering/up-scaling.
sure its not fucking DLSS video but i can do it on a 1050ti without using 300 watts.
MPV stock can also just do outright better de-banding then whatever nvidias shit is called

[fluid ridge]

my gripe with MPV is that it looks like dookey

[echo canopy]

you can get 3rd party skins for it

[fluid ridge]

horse dookey you feel me bro i feel like i could make a better user interface and ive never even touched UI design before

[light jacinth]

What is MPV?

[fluid ridge]

media player

[light jacinth]

Better than VLC?

[echo canopy]

and its default one sucks because EVERYTHING has hotkey bindings. Its by linux degends for linux degens but also supports windows

[fluid ridge]

in terms of quality, apparently mpv is better

[echo canopy]

In every single way except UI

[light jacinth]

Lol, VLC already had a kinda clunky UI

[echo canopy]

MPV has no ui, its confs and hotkeys

[fluid ridge]

code.videolan.org/videolan/libplacebo

I think VLC has caught up in terms of quality with this

and VLC gets RTX super resolution support too

[echo canopy]

sir, MPV uses libplacebo

[fluid ridge]

yeah i know which is why i said they caught up

[echo canopy]

MPV can do it and better

[echo canopy]

VLC does not expose the settings needed to compete with MPV.

[light jacinth]

So just keep using VLC? Because who has time for that kind of obtusiveness

[fluid ridge]

give me 45 minutes i will throw together a concept media player that looks better than MPV

[echo canopy]

just copy someones elses conf off of github and forget or use a 3rd party skin

[echo canopy]

it already exists in 3rd party skins. default MPV is a good bare bones player

having a "good ui" is not the projects main objective nore should it be

if you REALLY care, make it, its just lua script
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/player/lua/osc.lua

[fossil frost]

my main complaint about VLC is that the UI is shit

[fossil frost]

step 1, build ffplay.exe, step 2, done

[fluid ridge]

ok i have compiled all of the icons i need for this #off-topic

[gilded quest]

[gilded quest]

[thorny axle]

Windows has better support for programs, but many agree MacOS is more user-friendly

[wispy pine]

ok

[thorny axle]

As well, MacOS is generally more efficient from what I understand

[pliant karma]

299.99 mind you so 89 was pretty much a steal

[nova dune]

You'd think that after this many years of experience, this many instances of windows, a billion dollar company like Microsoft that runs adds on their operating system could at the very least make a windows 10 that not only does not shit itself but also tell you why it did so

[gilded quest]

okay but if they were trying to sell it at $299 that would be such a scam

[full fossil]

What the

Win11 is a thing now lol

[nova dune]

is there still blue screens ?

[pliant karma]

I wouldn’t even buy it lol. Just was scrolling through the site and came across it

[nova dune]

I haven't looked into win 11 at all since my PC doesn't support it

[thorny axle]

Microsoft is a trillion dollar company

[full fossil]

I mean yes but rarely? MacOS has red screens lol

[thorny axle]

In fact, over 2

[gilded quest]

i don't get BSODs anymore

[thorny axle]

There will always be blue screens to some extent

[gilded quest]

only when nvidia has bad driver releases

[pliant karma]

Same last bsod wasn’t even one my system just went black and restarted on its own

[gilded quest]

If you want to avoid blue screens, install windows insider edition

[nova dune]

Ok, but instead of just "Code 0xc00000021a" can't it just say "Delete this file from this directory" or "Here is why we also can't let you boot into safe mode neither"

[full fossil]

Hackintosh is the best option

[nova dune]

huh, what's that ?

[thorny axle]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[full fossil]

Because that's insanely fucking difficult for devs lol

[echo canopy]

You underestimate just exactly what the fuck you are asking

[nova dune]

true

[echo canopy]

also microsoft in general is very incompetent besides a few internal groups

[thorny axle]

Strong words to call something which created the most popular OS in the world

[nova dune]

I think he/she meant the the scale of the company now does not pair with the efficiency and genius of the past microsoft

[full fossil]

Microsoft is great at creating a versatile marketable OS. There's nothing like it that's made to be put on non 1st party hardware

[thorny axle]

Windows vista existed

Windows has had plenty of blunders in the past

And to my knowledge, has never been insanely efficient or minimalistic like Linux

[echo canopy]

you have different teirs of developers within microsoft itself. A kernel developer will have much higher expertise then a gui developer

[echo canopy]

thats not been true since XP and even then it was arguable

[thorny axle]

?

[echo canopy]

oh you said never

[nova dune]

smaller teams are definitely more likely to produce a robust and unified products. The individual puzzle pieces created by various sectors are less likely to fit together with a larger amount of puzzle pieces because people are only able to agree on so many things

and then if you also get the homies on

its usually fun with more and more people

[nova dune]

[fallen cedar]

ye I tried that too but

[last solstice]

it needs dedication I can tell you that much

[fallen cedar]

I mean I did play like back in 2013/14 with like a group of friends on a bigger survival server

[nova dune]

The only thing that seems to get me going is when I am with people and we want to achieve the same thing

have we lost all hope already?

[strange elk]

Yes, because theres an app for that

[halcyon grove]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/fhCfXy Hiya people im new to the discord and would like your thoughts, this is my build at the moment, i obviously have a case and all that stuff but i was thinking of going to the ASUS Dual RX 6700XT 12GB would this be a good choice or not, my case will not fit a triple fan GPU either due to the mounting of the AIO Radiator in the case, thank you for reading 🙂

[echo canopy]

you know people are already doing it

[strange elk]

kraken x53 isnt great, you are getting less performance with rgb ram (marginal as it may be) youre buying windows?

I currently have the RX 6700 XT Asus Dual OC model. With an undervolt, overclock and fans at 60% it stays very cool. It can be a bit noisy sometimes under heavy load though with my current settings. Runs all my games above 60fps. Around 70-90ish fps 1440p depending on the game. Over 100fps in most games at 1080p. Of course everyone's milage varies fps wise depending on other system components. -Reddit user

[strange elk]

Those are my notes and as far as performance goes that card is pretty good. Im on an RX6700 sapphire pulse dual fan and its pretty much silent at max load and runs everything I play well, including VR

Also the 5900x, if you dont need the cores go for a 5800x or 5600

[vapid smelt]

he already owns everything

[strange elk]

Ah, missed that mb

[halcyon grove]

i asked in another discord with people and they said it was a weird combo with the R9 5900X, the build i listed is what i actually currently have aswell, what i listed is my exact build i am using to talk to you with and play games 🙂

[strange elk]

It IS a little weird since its not the 6900XT basically.

[sterile arrow]

yo guys why would my render latency skyrocket to 800ms and give me 1fps

[strange elk]

But yeah a 6700XT is a great card. What is your monitors resolution

[halcyon grove]

i just dont want to sell a kidney for a gpu, im a cheap ass lol i have the money for a 4090 but dont want to see the money go lol and i run at 1080p 144Hz

[sonic barn]

programming sucks

I want to die

strangle myself with a python in a flask

[strange elk]

Do you have the 6600 already?

[vapid smelt]

put me in your will

[halcyon grove]

i do i use the card currently

[strange elk]

Whats wrong with that right now then? from what I understand its perfectly capable running well at 1080. better than my 1660, and as much as I hated its cooler it ran pretty well

[sonic barn]

[halcyon grove]

nothing is wrong with the card currently but i feel as though i am wasting the PCs current potential and wasting it and i would just like to be able to play my games smoothly at constant frame rates and good frame rates, i play FiveM with graphics mods, Assetto Corsa with mods, XDefiant closed beta i think it is called and Call of Duty MW2

[strange elk]

Honestly if you care that much as much as I hate to say it get a used 3080Ti from ebay or something

That way your games will perform great, youll have ray tracing in a usable manner and you wont need another upgrade to satisfy you in case the 6700XT doesnt do it for you

[halcyon grove]

isnt the 3080ti an 8gb or am i dumb?

[strange elk]

12

regular 3080 is 10

[vapid smelt]

the chad 3080 has a 12 gb model

[golden talon]

3080 with 12 gb existed

[halcyon grove]

it has to be a Dual fan Card tho that is my downfall on all of this

[strange elk]

right

[halcyon grove]

you cannot get the 3080ti as a dual can u or am i tired and need to go bed lol as it is 12:31am

[golden talon]

is that your M4 in your pfp

[strange elk]

Its more expensive than some ebay listings but performs basically as well https://us.msi.com/Graphics-Card/GeForce-RTX-4070-VENTUS-2X-12G

Last thing I have to say about it, I hope it helps

[halcyon grove]

thank you for your help and thank you for your time it is appreciated 🙂

[strange elk]

Honestly I might debate on getting a 4070..

[vapid smelt]

get a used rx 6800xt its just as fast and much cheaper

[strange elk]

Mainly for RT and AI processing

I dont know if the latter will help me on my own goals but..

Ive got a 6700 right now and love it, dont get me wrong

[strange elk]

im aware

not what im looking at though atm

[vapid smelt]

could get the 6950xt equal RTing and faster raster

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/gbXV3C/asrock-phantom-gaming-oc-radeon-rx-6950-xt-16-gb-video-card-rx6950xt-pg-16go

[strange elk]

no kidding? I thought all RDNA2 cards were shit at rt

[strong kettle]

compared to nvidia cards they are

[strange elk]

I know mine flops on its face

[strong kettle]

6950xt beats out the 3090 in raster though

[golden talon]

theyre bad at RT and even worse at AI if thats what youre looking for

[vapid smelt]

a higher RT load the 6950xt is 31fps the 4070 is also 31fps

[lethal pivot]

Christmas going to be expensive for me yikes

[wooden fable]

Artist here. Are there any potential complications with using untempered glass on a case?
Thinking about blowing a glass case.

[strange elk]

I wonder if 6950XT can be used in a hackintosh as well..

[vapid smelt]

pretty sure AMD cards are still better for hackintosh

[wooden fable]

Thick blown glass panels with aluminum brackets

[strange elk]

Nah, just 6900XT. rip. And yes they are

[vapid smelt]

the $630 6950xt is a much better card than the rtx 4070 for gaming equal RT and faster raster

[strange elk]

TBF its also much less efficient

not that I care generally, long as my psu can handle it

[golden talon]

i would get a 6950xt except none of the cheap ones fit in my case

its time to part out my pc

[strange elk]

Me with my HAF XB Evo

[vapid smelt]

true 177watts less then the 6950xt

[strange elk]

At a nearly 100w gap id probably consider the 6900XT instead jeez..

[vapid smelt]

you can always undervolt cards

[strange elk]

Dont trust myself to really

Also im impatient

[vapid smelt]

just 1 button press

[strong kettle]

is that adrenaline

[strange elk]

yes

[strong kettle]

never used it

[half lily]

.

[strong kettle]

i dont think the nvidia one has auto tuning

[strange elk]

Not from what I saw, I was a bit impressed on AMDs side once I switched

[strange elk]

I was wondering if it actually would tune to a good degree, can it do undervolt and overclock?

[strong kettle]

overclocks are usually marginal

unless u got some liquid nitrogen

[light jacinth]

Are there any Large Language Models that can have files uploaded to them? Or LLM's that can run locally so I can have them go through files?

[last solstice]

chat gpt plugins maybe

there are some that run locally

[light jacinth]

Thanks

[tropic yarrow]

Yo. How can i provide feedback on todays ltt vid without seeming douchey

[light jacinth]

reply in the comments

[tropic yarrow]

Oh yeah. I forgot how yt works for a sec

Thanks

[slim mirage]

i mean you can say it in here if you want

[tropic yarrow]

sure, why not

[stray apex]

forum thread or yt comments is better if you want it to actually be seen by ltt

they aren't terribly active in the discord

[slim mirage]

when they said feedback i didnt actually think they meant for like LTT staff to see i thought it was just like a discussion or opinion for other viewers to see lmao

[tropic yarrow]

bit of both^ but, im sure its going to improve anyways

[last solstice]

what was todays video again

[light jacinth]

LTT has had problems with bringing videos through to a conclusion/end, the recent video where they used the environmental chamber was a fucking hack job. They couldn't even get the computer to work when they brought the temps down, it ran @ 100celsius and Linus was just like, welp this is the end of the video, thanks for watching us fuck with a computer that didn't work under the conditions most people would be interested in seeing this environmental chamber operate at.

[slim mirage]

hp keyboard

[last solstice]

oo yea the hp keeb thingi

[light jacinth]

But I think it's a problem LTT is aware of and is trying to improve on, or at least I hope they are

[slim mirage]

Im a fan of the chaotic videos that go wrong but i know they are not for everyone

[light jacinth]

They can go wrong, but they should be prepared to fix it and bring the video to a proper conclusion

[slim mirage]

i think they just wanted a video showing off the machine before its actually going to be used in future probably to help make back some of the money spent on it if they actually do proper tests with it they should have a way for people to tell the difference i get what you mean

[light jacinth]

LTT needs to hire more people or slow down the production schedule, it's very apparent in the quality of the script/wrapping up the video properly

[tropic yarrow]

I understand its the first (or atleast very early) of the vids where the lab get to show and use its results from testing. But please, (for future) GRAPH CLARITY. The key from the actuation test is almost impossible to see on anything smaller than a monitor (so ios, where I first watched, it was un readable), and only looking back on it now, I see that it was referencing press and release. Which were already there in large letters (for likely the same reason). But it would be better if either the key was there and readable, or not there at all. Secondly it was only after linus (helpfully) explained that the graph should go in a linear direction that It made sense what it was referencing. Would be great if theres a reference line/goal similar to frequency response graphs (the audio ones). And lastly, second graph at 9:30. Keyboard referenced is in small writing top left rather than centre underneath title (nitpicking) but the graph just, unless you knew/know what its regarding, makes no/little sense. Im sure over time us "the veiwers" will come to understand what the graph was/means, but at the moment with little/no explanation, it looks more like a diagram then a graph. (photo here: #screenshots message )
Sorry for all the words,
tldr: Graphs hard to comprehend, sure they will improve over time

[vapid smelt]

tldr

[tropic yarrow]

too lazy, didnt read

[slim mirage]

lemme get fancy AI thing to tldr it

[tropic yarrow]

haha, fair

[tropic yarrow]

thatll be $15.99 a word please

just look at the pic (message link) and the last sentence and ur good

[light jacinth]

You're right, that latency screenshot made no fucking sense

[tropic yarrow]

thank you

As I say in screenshot chat: The only value referenced was the 15.1 (middle) and 12.9 (other graph), but it feels like, throwing up a graph for the hell of it, and not in a readable manner

[slim mirage]

The video presents the lab's testing results.
Graph clarity needs improvement for future videos.
The key from the actuation test is almost impossible to see on smaller screens.
It would be better to have a readable key or none at all.
A reference line or goal would be helpful, similar to frequency response graphs.
The second graph at 9:30 is unclear unless you already know what it is referencing.
The keyboard referenced is in small writing in the top left instead of center underneath the title.
The video could benefit from clearer and more informative graphs.```

basically graphs or something

[tropic yarrow]

so, its 5 different numbers, and only 1 used

couldnt have said it better

[light jacinth]

And Linus also said one of the keys was linear but the other wasn't but then you get to the graph, and while one is clearly better neither are actually linear.

[stray apex]

linear switches != linear line

[light jacinth]

gotcha

[stray apex]

linear switch refers to the switch design, where there's no significant bump in the force curve

[slim mirage]

ill be honest i couldnt tell at what i was looking at with the graphs and just went with it because i dont really care about keyboards

[tropic yarrow]

but then.... its a membrane no? so unless pushing from the "ghost" switch, how can it be measure other than just an on or off value (the membrane)

[stray apex]

as opposed to a tactile or clicky switch, which are designed to provide a noticeable response before actuation

[tropic yarrow]

hence why linear are often used for gaming

Can I use a PWM fan splitter cable for non-PWM fans? Theoretically it should work since they just won't use the 4th pin

[slim mirage]

yes i think they will just run at the rated speed that the fan has on it if it doesnt have pwm

[woven egret]

They were supposed to be retail boxed except the low end w5 I thought

RIP me hoping for threadripper alternative, intel so out of touch

Low end Xeon w5 would actually make sense for a home server, but they borked it by not making them available... so yay for AMD I guess?

dude flash cards are actually OP

[frosty cape]

Already got my anwser 😤

[fluid ridge]

the ultimate boss move is to buy prime annually and then buy things under 3 dollars every single day to make sure you cost amazon more money than amazon costed you

[uncut axle]

I now have like 11.1gb of updates on steam to do

[fluid ridge]

it's hilarious that amazon even offers same day/one day/two day delivery on items worth less than 3CAD without additional shipping fees if you do have prime

[fallen cedar]

takes but a moment

[uncut axle]

And also AT&T isn’t super great tonight

[fallen cedar]

does your isp quality change dialy?

[uncut axle]

Last time I did updates I was at like 500-800KB/s but rn it’s under 200KB/s

[vapid smelt]

or load the servers by downloading all the videos on amazon video in 4k

[fluid ridge]

that works too

[fallen cedar]

[uncut axle]

I normally use my hotspot for downloads since our internet isn’t great (although we should hopefully get starlink soon)

[fallen cedar]

do you live remote or something

[fluid ridge]

some of the greatest salvations require the greatest of sacrifices

[uncut axle]

Most devices are limited so it stays somewhat usable

[vapid smelt]

starlink user

[uncut axle]

Not really, it isn’t country country but it isn’t city

[fluid ridge]

starlink internet speed is pretty average

[uncut axle]

We literally have nothing else here

[fluid ridge]

the advantage starlink has is that you will be able to use discord on mount everest

[uncut axle]

Plus we use like 1-2tb a month, we would be slowed down so fast

Although it is like 6 people living here

[fallen cedar]

on a land connection or you mean on hotspot

[uncut axle]

Rn it’s 500KB/s, so it’s better

[uncut axle]

On the Wi-Fi, I rarely use my hotspot unless the internet is absolutely terrible or I’m doing a downgrade

[fallen cedar]

there is a limit on how much data you can use on your wifi?

[tiny saffron]

Yeah some ISP do that

[dreamy rose]

what you pay for?

[vapid smelt]

i have uncaped symmetrical speeds with 0ms latency on speedtest

[uncut axle]

Idk really

We have a combination of AT&T cellular + dsl, it works but sometimes it isn’t great

It’s the best we can do really

[fallen cedar]

sorry im not used to having a data limit on your house internet connection

[light jacinth]

They're putting fiber optic in on my street, is there any way to tell who is installing it? I'm currently on xfinity

[fallen cedar]

yeah youre just handed over to what there is available

[uncut axle]

Hopefully we are getting fiber soon

[dreamy rose]

you pay for unlimited or fixed limits

[vapid smelt]

idk

[fallen cedar]

we dont have fixed limits here

[uncut axle]

That or starlink, even if starlink has the same speeds as we do now, it should be more stable

[light jacinth]

How will I know when the install is done? Will fliers go up on residents doors?

[dreamy rose]

you sure?

[fallen cedar]

1000%

legislated that way

[dreamy rose]

now i wish it was that way on mobile data.

[uncut axle]

We could probably get better speeds if we moved to Houston or something (it isn’t super far), but where we are now, we can’t really

[dreamy rose]

lame, you cant afford to move to a different city

[fallen cedar]

well actually, so is my mobile plan 😄 apologies I dont mean to make that sound arrogant I guess were just got lucky

[uncut axle]

We could afford to move, just we are happy here, plus our house is paid off, we have everything we need

Sure our neighbors are kinda stupid, but that isn’t a good reason to move

Also we have 4 loud dogs, we couldn’t live in a hoa

[crystal ocean]

how far out in texas are u

[uncut axle]

Or well 4 dogs, 2 loud, 2 that are kinda loud

[crystal ocean]

are u like in a metro or the middel of no where

[dreamy rose]

normally the loud ones are tiny mfs

[uncut axle]

South-ish east Texas i would say

[crystal ocean]

cause im trying to get fiber too

ahh im out nearish waco no fiber yet

[uncut axle]

About an hour to Houston, i believe Houston is south for me

[uncut axle]

Ours aren’t tiny

[dreamy rose]

i'd hate to see a dog the size of a keycap. that little shit blowing down buildings

[crystal ocean]

ah good area if im think right

[uncut axle]

2 huskies (Mika and Luna), a Great Pyrenees (princess) and a Germany shepherd (alley)

The loudest one is the German shepherd surprisingly, although the Great Pyrenees can kinda be loud sometimes

[dreamy rose]

ah well huskies are a whole other kind.

[uncut axle]

They got out a couple times

[dreamy rose]

they love to be loud

[uncut axle]

And Mika killed like 5-6 chickens already

[uncut axle]

Ours aren’t super loud yet surprisingly, it’s weird

[dreamy rose]

someone likes KFC.

[uncut axle]

One of the people who had some chickens she killed was just stupid

He has free roaming chickens in a yard with a fence, but no gate

In a neighborhood…

[dreamy rose]

it can depend on the husky. but singing is normally their favorite thing to do.

[uncut axle]

Yeah

[uncut axle]

My mom’s aunt has chickens who kinda Free roam, although there aren’t many dogs where she is

It’s really just her Great Pyrenees

Where she lives used to be a gravel pit I think

[vapid smelt]

your moms sister or your great aunt?

[uncut axle]

Great aunt

I just call her aunt pat tbh

[dreamy rose]

mums mums sister or mums mums daughter

[uncut axle]

Fr

She has some sheep, horses I think, chickens, maybe goats, and some other animals I think

It’s pretty nice out there

[dreamy rose]

goats are cool

[uncut axle]

I’m not 100% sure that she has goats, but I think she might

I really haven’t been out there in a while

[dreamy rose]

its funny when they get scared, some just lock up and fall over. like my pc.

[uncut axle]

💀💀

[dreamy rose]

you accidentally clip something near a goat pen. almost looks like insurance fraud.

bruh. the first video on youtube is almost 18.

[vapid smelt]

older then you

[dreamy rose]

yeah. but the platform is nearly 20 now.

[vapid smelt]

imagine being younger then youtube

[fallen cedar]

not like they can do anything about it

[vapid smelt]

well 🪢

[fallen cedar]

what

the children cant??

[dreamy rose]

imagine being younger than Jacksepticeyes channel.

a lot of people can imagine that, How many playing Fortnite?

[elfin jetty]

I play fortnite, its not bad

[polar fern]

“I do a thing, it’s not bad”

🤣

[dreamy rose]

i highly doubt its any good.

[elfin jetty]

Its fun enough on no build

been getting back into minecraft as well ngl

[polar fern]

Minecraft is a real game. Two weeks is 9 year olds screaming into mics

[dreamy rose]

if it was good they would have had building Nerfed in the first place so no mfs ever built a mansion.

or not even in the game.

[elfin jetty]

well it doesnt work that way, but they gave us a better option

[elfin jetty]

that is why there are more than one mode

[dreamy rose]

if people are praising this "No build" mode so much then they should just get rid of the building Mechanic.

[elfin jetty]

why would they when they can let people play what they want to play? fortnite is still free yaknow

[dreamy rose]

people dont wanna play Build-a-mansion-on-a-battlefield simulator do they not?

[elfin jetty]

some do, some dont, alot of my friends play build mode more than non

I prefer no build

[dreamy rose]

that's lame. must be playing with Sweats then.

[gilded quest]

i fucking hate you

[elfin jetty]

nah, I mean some matches are not so fun but some are good

thats just how it goes

i wish the government would take 30 off of my bill so the insane 70AUD for 50/20 isn't so fucking stupid. like FR they allow this shit?

[uncut axle]

Just change your age

Simple enough, what’s so hard about it?

[dreamy rose]

i am now 2019. i was born in 4

[light jacinth]

Yah, I've heard AUS internet is horrible. You guys get insane markups on fucking software, something that can be downloaded over the internet

[polar fern]

Big pond. 👍

[light jacinth]

Most people I've heard just buy in a different location using VPNs

[uncut axle]

[dreamy rose]

hardware here is bloody insane too.

[light jacinth]

It's no wonder people get caught smuggling CPU's

Wait is that a thing?

[uncut axle]

Yes

[polar fern]

Australia has a sweet long distance train & a checkered past. ❤️

[light jacinth]

Very much so, woman will hollow out pregnancy belly's and fill them with CPUs

[uncut axle]

Some Chinese person got arrested for it, also with ssd-s I think

[light jacinth]

then try and walk them through security

[dreamy rose]

thats a brain

[polar fern]

No. A brain is an organ

There's something called pregnancy bellys, it's for woman expecting a child to practice being pregnant. Well they hollow them out and fill them with CPUs

Guys

Discord is partly owned by the Chinese govt shh. don't give them ideas.

[light jacinth]

Brazil I think also has crazy import tarrifs on electronics. If you see a native Brazilian with an iphone they're either baller or bought it from a smuggling ring, same thing with PS5's and Xbox's

[uncut axle]

💀💀

[ripe lintel]

cap?

[dreamy rose]

speaking of SSDs, can an 8TB SSD be used on a BIOS System, if its got 4 2TB Partitions?

[ripe lintel]

that doesnt seem true

is it?

[light jacinth]

Does their ownership stake give them unfettered access to the servers? I see china owns this, or china owns that, so watch your language. You guys do know they can own part of something without actually having access to it, right?

[light jacinth]

I'm old. what does cap mean?

[ripe lintel]

sorry

[full fossil]

If I am not mistaken, short answer is duh FUCK yes

do you know how arbritary China's justice system is? And legal system is? On data stuff like this?

[ripe lintel]

sorry, i mean that it doesnt seem true and seems made up

[uncut axle]

False basically, like “that’s false” or “that’s cap”

[full fossil]

Tencent holds a stake with Discord and well if you want to open a company in China, you have to go through ALOT of red tape with China. I think Linus made a video on this detaling this too.

That includes collecting data to send to the Chinese govt.

[light jacinth]

@full fossil Simply buying a 10% share doesn't mean you get access to servers. I could go out and buy every Apply share on the market, but if I asked for access to their servers I would be told to fuck off.

And who gives a fuck what China's legal system says, they're coming to western countries to buy these shares, the western companies are not necessarily coming to them

And most of them have finally wisened up, the days of companies spilling their company secrets all over China's face on some obscure promise for market share is largely over.

So no, I do not believe for one second China's share of Discord has guaranteed them access to the servers

At least not the servers outside China itself

[ripe lintel]

probably true

[jaunty compass]

i tore down and cleaned my cousin's controller since i borrowed his ps4 to play bloodborne

the sticks were fucked up so i replaced them with the only ones i had on hand

[full fossil]

Alright on that we can agree with this point. But what if some deranged person from the CCP decides to leak Discord's data to China anyways?

There's been cases of China stealing trade secrets from airlines and making their own planes out of them.

[jaunty compass]

it's incredibly cursed

[full fossil]

so same vector can apply here.

[jaunty compass]

the red sticks were the only ones i had on hand that fit

[last solstice]

I need a mouse pointer that has no stem

they look better for some reason

like honestly

why does it have a stem

[dreamy rose]

the KDE cursor has a tiny stem. but it looks nice.

[last solstice]

I actually signiicantly hate the kde stem

[dreamy rose]

or really its called a tail

[last solstice]

or the pointer in general

it looks so shit idk why

[dreamy rose]

i disagree.

[vapid smelt]

dirty

[last solstice]

gnome and mac do it better idk

[jaunty compass]

that's not dirt

[last solstice]

the windows cursor has this weird angle to it

[jaunty compass]

that's just the desk not having paint there anymore 💀

[polar fern]

And remember the Chinese government is not china proper.

[vapid smelt]

did you wipe your ass on it ?!

[jaunty compass]

I have no idea what this desk went through before i got it, man

[polar fern]

It’s seem things

[dreamy rose]

put it on a cartesian plane. the pointer is designed to point at 0,0

[sonic barn]

I hate flask I hate flask why is it so stupid why

It doesn't let you use type() it struggles to reload properly like with js

Why are we using python for web development why
