[gilded quest]

You're welcome for the judgement!

[worn carbon]

i knew I had something normal on this discord that didn't make me look too stupid while being from a while back

[elfin jetty]

Because there is no way a phone is gonna be as powerful as a full blown desktop without being a thicc phone

[stray apex]

so?

your PC has no hope of being as powerful as a mainframe computer

[worn carbon]

just stack s23 ultras and get the S46

[gilded quest]

I would love thicc phones lmao

[elfin jetty]

So why would i wanna lug around a big ass phone when i can just have a big ass desktop that never moves

[polar fern]

I do actually like this case as well, but I may have a problem with the card, readers and stuff on the bottom, because it will interfere with my desk fan

[gilded quest]

Camera bumps are stupid. Just make the phone as thick as the camera with tons of battery

[stray apex]

because at some point we'll reach a level of performance where a desktop is wholly unnecessary

[elfin jetty]

Im making a pda with a le potato SBC so ima have a thicc pda

[stray apex]

we're already starting to see a plateau in the effective fidelity of graphics

[gilded quest]

Sounds cool but you're like 20 years too late on PDAs

[elfin jetty]

And ill still go with desktops, because by then desktops will again be more powerful than phones

[worn carbon]

I can't agree more, but they would have to fit more stuff some in the phone somehow, to fill up the other stuff that the battery doesn't fill up

[gilded quest]

Headphone jack
microSD
Stylus

[stray apex]

and then at some point computing will reach a point where the fidelity necessary for any game will be able to run on anything

[worn carbon]

Thickness is what we need

[elfin jetty]

Its mostly so i can have a battery powered pc that fits in my pocker that has actual usb ports and more than just 512gb of storage

[stray apex]

if a phone can play cyberpunk 3069 at dual 8k on your HMD
why would you buy a desktop

[worn carbon]

Oh wait I know what! Just hire the engineers of the Note 7, they can forsure fill up the empty space! Just tell them not to get too crazy, before your devices gets banned off of all US flights.

[elfin jetty]

So i can run ut at 16k on a desktop thats gonna be probably better in every way still

[gilded quest]

512gb on my phone sounds cool, but I also developed my computing habits in the streaming age

[full fossil]

👋

[stray apex]

that's not going to look better, though

are you just going to spend money for the sake of spending money?

[elfin jetty]

Also think about upgrades, no modern phone allows upgrades

[full fossil]

shud i buy a 4070 or a 3070

[stray apex]

is there even going to be a gaming desktop market once we reach that level of performance?

[full fossil]

well yeah

[pseudo charm]

Depends on budget you got

[elfin jetty]

Thats a stupid question and ya know it

[stray apex]

who's going to bother building RAM or GPUs when an SoC will perform just as well?

[cerulean niche]

Buy the one you can afford

[full fossil]

around £650 just wanted to know if its worth me going the 3070 to save some or spend more for 4070

[worn carbon]

the chiplets are still gonna have to be made

[stray apex]

yes, so?

[pseudo charm]

Should you consider 7900 xt?

[elfin jetty]

You do realize not everyone wants a do it all in one device. Also what pc games support android

[worn carbon]

uhh there for ram

[stray apex]

people would absolutely prefer an all-in-one device if only for purely financial reasons

[full fossil]

eh isnt amd not very good for blender and video editing and rt?

[elfin jetty]

Even then it doesnt make sense to not have upgrade options

[worn carbon]

what's it called uhh moore's law. PC is already ahead of the mobile market heavily.

[full fossil]

also 7900xt is like £900 lol

[stray apex]

the upgrade is that nobody is actually making graphics that are harder to run, so you only need to buy a new device every five years

[pseudo charm]

Rt is just fine RN isn't better than Nvidia but can def say it's at 4070 level

[worn carbon]

so unless Samsung and AMD can beat Moore's law asf they can't do much

[trail meteor]

moore's law is almost dead, and not related to this discussion anyway

[full fossil]

hm

[elfin jetty]

Yes when the phone costs a couple grand

[stray apex]

and a desktop also costs a couple grand and probably more because the market has shrunk

[echo canopy]

Half dead, transistors density gains is dead

[pseudo charm]

• Amd is more futureproof because of amount of VRAM available out of the box

[full fossil]

thats a good point

[stray apex]

we already see that apple has had massive success with their SoC laptops

[full fossil]

4070 with 12gb of vram is kind aannoying its better than my 4gb of vram rn lol

[elfin jetty]

The market hasnt shrunk, people arent upgrading as much this generation because of how ridiculous pricing is getting

[stray apex]

and AMD and Intel are both moving to create much more powerful APUs

[pseudo charm]

Yep, I've changed from Nvidia (3070) to 7900 xt and i'm very glad

[stray apex]

at some point AMD and Intel are simply going to switch to building SoCs for the performance benefits

[echo canopy]

Probably not this year for AMD

[full fossil]

how is amd with video editing and blender? if u know

[sullen lodge]

i think msi afterburner is on crack

[stray apex]

yeah, but we're talking mid-long term

[elfin jetty]

Tell me one onboard gpu that can reach 1060 levels of performance.

[trail meteor]

Highly integrated systems make sense for some applications, but not others. Personally I do own an apple silicon laptop, but I don't really want that same level of integration for a gaming PC unless manufacturers start offering to buy back old hardware at a decent price

[pseudo charm]

AV1 is very good but yeah, i'm not that informed with blender

[stray apex]

in 2013 we were on nvidia 700 series so
in ten years APUs will shit all over the 1060

[pseudo charm]

If you stream, When Av1 will be available on twitch it will be great

[echo canopy]

AMDs av1 encoder is the worse of them all

AV1 is already available to stream to YouTube

[pseudo charm]

Yeah but very close, more than amd one

[stray apex]

my point is that at some point manufacturers will simply stop bothering to support all the discrete components for consumer use

[pseudo charm]

And it's not that noticeable

[elfin jetty]

Maybe. But then at that point a 1060 will be an ancient relic and any apu that comes out is probably still not gonna reach the performance of any dedicated future gpu

[echo canopy]

It IS noticeable.

None of them can compete with software encoding tho

[stray apex]

doesn't matter
we're simply going to run into limits on how much power you actually need to render things

unreal 5 is already at the point where people struggle to distinguish it from reality

[pseudo charm]

While streaming? depend on bitrate, but it's greater than it was before

[tough spruce]

When efficiency is the name of the game now

[elfin jetty]

Game devs have proven time and time again they will go out of their way to make shit harder to run

[full fossil]

its quite scary too

[echo canopy]

At the same bitrate for all of them AMD is still the worse

[stray apex]

yes, because until unreal you could at least tell that it was fake

[pseudo charm]

Can you have something to prove what you said?

[stray apex]

we're literally reaching the point where real-time game graphics are becoming indistinguishable from reality, and after that fidelity increases are totally pointless

[elfin jetty]

There are still tell signs that renders arent real life

[echo canopy]

EposVoxs video

[full fossil]

ngl when i first saw this game i thought it was real life

[tough spruce]

Me too

[trail meteor]

I mean, at this point I'd love to see companies actually start to produce more combined APUs, but I'd be highly concerned that AMD, Intel, and NVidia will silo themselves into only producing packages with their cpus and gpus, with so if I want a ryzen cpu and an nvidia gpu I'm just stuck because they don't make that

[echo canopy]

Aesthetic games from 10 years ago looks better then modern AAA games

[full fossil]

you can tell its a game though if you look but you actually have to find the flaws its quite hard to tell without looking into it

[pseudo charm]

He's not talking about AV1 but h265

[tough spruce]

We love path tracing

[stray apex]

https://youtu.be/_KfaRMDpijY
the radeon 680m, found in laptop chips, is already roughly equivalent to a low-end discrete gpu

[full fossil]

madden nfl 23 😔

[stray apex]

the 780m is supposedly a reasonable uplift from the 680m

[trail meteor]

most of the benefits from the apple silicon laptops are also in large part because its an ARM chip, not an x64 chip imo. They could pack more computation power in with lower electrical power consumption and heat generation

[stray apex]

and we're going to see rdna3-based igpus soon as well

[gilded vine]

lololol

[fallen cedar]

apu's are cool

[gilded vine]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-gif-26388528

[stray apex]

intel's work on dgpu is also likely to carry over into their igpus

[tough spruce]

@full fossil even beamNG which isn’t known to be the most graphically realistic game, has made some people do a double take

[tired glade]

That clearly game

[tough spruce]

(Granted that’s a laser scanned copy of the Nurburgring)

[trail meteor]

yeah, if it has, that's certainly not

[coarse nacelle]

sui

[echo canopy]

I’m sorry, it was something different from AMD. And it was actually better then all of them. Idk if it’s the same one as the 7900xtx tho

https://youtu.be/TYOkJFOL5jY

[tardy terrace]

i wanna get beam.ng and that accompanying engine designer game

[coarse nacelle]

SEWY

[gilded vine]

sui

[tough spruce]

In terms of engine though, it’s as close to real life simulation anyone has gotten for racing games

[gilded vine]

SUIIIII

[full fossil]

beamng is impressive if they improved the graphics even more thatd be amazing

[trail meteor]

for racing games

[tough spruce]

They physically simulate all suspension and weight transfer and everything. And they logically simulate powertrain losses and wear

[pseudo charm]

Yep ^^ it was for 6XXX series, with 7XXXX series you have AV1 on GPU so ^^

[full fossil]

beamng drive with the graphics of this would be insane

[tough spruce]

[trail meteor]

also, it being a really good sim doesn't mean its graphics are worth talking about. I could eventually build a really good racing sim with no graphics other than a top-down view of a car on a track

[tough spruce]

FPS/Story games also aren’t simulating full on car suspension work

[tough spruce]

But making all of it feel realistic through a racing wheel is what’s so huge

[stray apex]

yeah, anyways, the point is that technology is all moving towards a point where you'll probably be able to run everything off a single central computing device for local tasks

[full fossil]

honestly all you need is wet roads and tons of reflections because we all know that makes a game realistic

[tough spruce]

GTA moment

[stray apex]

nvidia has already built what is basically a 3070 with like 20gb vram that runs off 75w pcie slot power

[full fossil]

yup lol

[full fossil]

beamng on a wheel feels so good

[tough spruce]

https://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/284160/extras/softbody_rockracer.gif?t=1670937192

[worn carbon]

yall is the same person

[trail meteor]

its two different people with the same username and pfp

at the very least two actually different accounts. Rip, didn't see the third

[tough spruce]

Why are you humoring the clown

[coarse nacelle]

my friend @twin mist was the one who said that i didnt say nothin

[worn carbon]

Oh, already

[coarse nacelle]

yeah hes the real lane

[trail meteor]

the one that didn't really do anything in here either

[tired glade]

Account made in 2020,lol

[coarse nacelle]

nah 2016 you started?

[tough spruce]

@full fossil forza horizon 6 gameplay

[tired glade]

Where is that tunnel in game?

[trail meteor]

if there were more than 8 pixels in the video it might look realistic, hopefully it looks good when run locally

[full fossil]

oh wow what game is that

[coarse nacelle]

hi im new

[tough spruce]

GTA 7

Closed beta obv

[full fossil]

lol apparently fh6 is gonna be the last fh

[tough spruce]

Not surprised

Nothing has changed since fh3

[worn carbon]

aren't they still all online

[full fossil]

me too but i hope it isnt the last one i also hope fh6 is set in the uae

[tough spruce]

I hope so

[worn carbon]

I never got into forza

[tough spruce]

More people will want beam. Which will mean it will get out of alpha faster

[full fossil]

i believe 2 and 3 4 and 5? but not 1

[tough spruce]

Didn’t even mention that. Beam is still in alpha/early beta

[full fossil]

its been like 11 years and its still in alpha lol

[tough spruce]

Yeah

But I mean the engine has come so far.

[full fossil]

true early beam was kinda trash

[tough spruce]

The game is the back burner at this point. They’re focusing on their actual engine design and ADAS benefits

I mean Audi uses the beam engine for ADAS training and early conceptual crash testing

[full fossil]

oh thats sick

anyways imma head off to bed im tired its been a long day goodnight people

[tough spruce]

https://beamng.tech/

They also have a few white papers on it

[near nymph]

Someone hacked my account and ordered 4 pixels

What a nut job. Left me an address also

[fossil frost]

cancel, report to google, report to police

address will likely be an airbnb though

[near nymph]

My bank is already doing a investigation. Google also.

[stray apex]

why would they buy pixels instead of iphones

[near nymph]

Gonna go to the RCMP tomorrow.

[stray apex]

who's buying shady pixels on the black market

[fossil frost]

criminals know that iphones can get remotely locked easily, people are less aware that any android phone can have the same thing done

[stray apex]

I guess?
oh wait, I think that's a google account

so
that makes sense

[tough spruce]

Only if the phone is activated?

[vapid smelt]

because pixels are better

[fossil frost]

no, all iphones have a serial number that apple know about on its way out of the door, and its attached to t he order, and apple can lock any phone by serial number... any android phone can have the same thing done too, via the device id, and since the pixels were bought via a google account, the device id is logged against the account, so those pixels can be made DOA the first time it connects to any network connection

[near nymph]

It's fine. It was charged to my credit card. Bank's money

[tough spruce]

Apple only activation locks based on IMEI

[fossil frost]

apple can completely remotely brick the phone based on the serial number

[near nymph]

Kids... This is why you never use a debit card unless you have to. If fraud happens. It's the bank's money. Not yours.

As long as you report it instantly

[fallen slate]

wtf

[near nymph]

With a credit card

[stray apex]

hopefully google doesn't ban you from life though

wild how heavy handed their bans get considering the breadth of their services

[pliant karma]

Lol fun when it happens out of nowhere

[fossil frost]

thats why i use my credit card online, always... because the bank care a lot more when its a CC than they do when its a debit card

[near nymph]

I talked to google. They said they left a note on my account saying that I'm the victim lol

[tough spruce]

my bank account literally doesn’t have a physical card attached to it

[fallen slate]

credit cards is just the same as debt tho

[tough spruce]

No they’re not

[fossil frost]

no, not at all..

[plain dome]

It's still an address

[tough spruce]

Credit cards aren’t directly spending your money

[plain dome]

[fallen slate]

i mean, im living on a country where stupid people are created so.. idk it's more of a different sociology perspective

[stray apex]

no, the credit card company pays the business and then at the end of the month sends you a bill for everything they paid for

[near nymph]

Credit Card taps into the Bank's money
Debit Card taps directly to your chequing account.

[fossil frost]

which is registered to a person who is not the criminal, and the criminal can rent that airbnb with a false name, and stolen card details... so no traceability

[fossil frost]

im aware...

[near nymph]

Yes you can go into debt with a credit card... As long as you pay it off at the end of the month. It's A Okay

[plain dome]

Surely to receive the items theyd need someone there though

[fallen slate]

yeah exactly what i said, debt in a "rich" way

[near nymph]

Debt can be utilize for good.

[fallen slate]

yeaa many stupid people here do not care at all

[fossil frost]

yes, the criminal will go there to collect them, they usually expect you to not notice until AFTER the items have shipped, or rely on police lazyness to not bother looking until after the items arrived

[stray apex]

well, if you can be responsible with a credit card they have benefits over debit

of course if you can't spend responsibly then they're a liability

[plain dome]

Good point

[fallen slate]

i know that, that's why i said people in my country are mostly stupid fucks

there's always someone who robbed banks with credit cards

[near nymph]

The dude lives right Infront of a school. Cops hang around school where I am 😂. Broskis can look just chill out and keep an eye out for them

[plain dome]

[fair sage]

i did an impulse purchase once again... 62 euros for Xeon E5-2699 v3 18c/36t CPU 😄

[near nymph]

Great choice. It's a good CPU

[fair sage]

my X99 system is sitting unused tho 😄

[elfin jetty]

[vapid smelt]

22nm thats some old tech

[fair sage]

well, it is Haswell-E

i mean it is the reasonable maximum choice for X99

there is 2699v4 22c/44t, but that one is still above 200 euros

[worn carbon]

i hate sites like whitepages

[fair sage]

the real struggle is resisting buying a 4090 or 7900 XTX

Gainward 4090 is 1770 euros. Sapphire Pulse 7900 XTX is 1180 euros

[south stone]

Come to Argentina and grab a 3090 for $450

[fair sage]

why would i buy a 3090

[south stone]

$450... and 24 gigs of ram 😛

[fallen cedar]

just be sure to bring US dollars

[vapid smelt]

$450 is too much

can task manager be wrong in terms of measuring gpu utilization

[fluid ridge]

no

[full fossil]

my gpu is always at 0.1%

[fluid ridge]

dual 4090s moment

[full fossil]

yet it is getting heated when running games

[fossil frost]

finished high on life earlier on in the week, can somebody recommend a game on gamepass that is easy to pick up/put down at will? and is easy to play at 11pm when tired

[full fossil]

i have r7 5800x and 3060

[fluid ridge]

3060 on the shell only

4090 die

[full fossil]

lol what

[fluid ridge]

i dont know what to tell you man, you just got a god tier gpu

[full fossil]

Or task manager is wrong

[fluid ridge]

if you're concerned try hwinfo64 but it will give you the same number task manager does

[fluid ridge]

this is unfathomable, the chances of this happening on a properly uncorrupted windows install rounded to the nearest 1/10,000 is 0%

[thin fjord]

forza?

[full fossil]

some games run it on 100% some dont

[fluid ridge]

oh that's what you mean

[full fossil]

for example forza 5 doesnt even use it

[fossil frost]

Needs too much consecration

[fluid ridge]

some games wont fully utilize your GPU yeah

[full fossil]

id get that but they are not even utilizing it

[fluid ridge]

is it running fine?

[full fossil]

fh5 runs butter smooth

[fluid ridge]

then thats not a problem

[full fossil]

but its showing 0.1% gpu utilization

[fluid ridge]

if it aint broke dont fix it

[full fossil]

and high cpu utilization

[fluid ridge]

CPU heavy game i guess

[full fossil]

quite the opposite

[fluid ridge]

idk man ive never played forza

[full fossil]

bf2042

[fluid ridge]

sucks

[full fossil]

sometimes runs smooth as butter like 60 70 fps

[vapid smelt]

just buy a new pc

[fluid ridge]

bro 60 to 70fps is not butter smooth

[fluid ridge]

true it will qualm all doubts about any issues

[full fossil]

its stable

even in intense scenes

[fluid ridge]

stable is not butter smooth

[full fossil]

what is smooth butter 240 fps?

[vapid smelt]

360fps is butter smooth

[fluid ridge]

my 3070 runs 2077 raytraced ultra nightmare at a stable 4fps

[fossil frost]

What are people's thoughts on no man's sky now?

[full fossil]

a lot lot better

then what it used to be

[full fossil]

4fps is not playable

since cpus are made of silicon, you can plant them and they grow a stronger and better one

[elfin jetty]

pc rental services?

[pulsar shore]

doesnt sound like a good idea personally

[past egret]

its like gen scinmore but for cpus

[polar fern]

https://www.grover.com/us-en/computers

[elfin jetty]

maybe if they get wiped after returned

[polar fern]

i would use my own hdd's

[elfin jetty]

honestly i'd rather buy an old optiplex

[stray apex]

wait
does the mc560 come with a wifi card installed

[gilded quest]

Old optiplexes are so goddamn useful

[polar fern]

problem is "old" i need a mostly current architecture with an upgrade/futureproofing path

[elfin jetty]

I got like 6 free from work

[gilded quest]

F word

[polar fern]

and i have what ammounts ot an "old optiplex" with my lenovo

[gilded quest]

I got a few from university surplus for $5 each. Pieced together 2 working optiplexes from 3 broken ones

[elfin jetty]

I have one of the opiplexes as my minecraft server, i7 4790 with 16gb of ram

[polar fern]

i see

[elfin jetty]

250gb ssd too, thing is a beast

[elfin jetty]

noicee thats the way man

[gilded quest]

I've since retired the optiplexes

[polar fern]

i need to sort out psu and ensure the board will work with that processor https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Vt4GyK

[elfin jetty]

ah i still have some

[gilded quest]

My old gaming PC is now the router

Little more power efficient
Much smaller and quieter

[elfin jetty]

I've mostly fixed them up and slap and ssd in them and just give them away

[stray apex]

why is the board so high end
why are you buying a 5700g

do you have an SSD already?

[manic torrent]

wtf x570 and 5700g. B550 and 5700X

[gilded quest]

Mine were core 2 duo systems so I sent them to electronics recycling

[polar fern]

the processor is what it is - its the board i am struggling with

[manic torrent]

also wtf spinning rust

[stray apex]

don't you own a 4600g or something

[elfin jetty]

I have a few of those from work too, the pentium ones sadly were dead

[polar fern]

i need 2x m.2 at least 4 sata 6, at least 2 usb 2 and 3 headers

[elfin jetty]

I still have the cpus from them though

[polar fern]

its a zen+ the one i have - i want new

[manic torrent]

why? to achieve what

[gilded quest]

I had to do a big cull when I moved cross country 😭

[manic torrent]

why would you buy a 5700g over an x when you're buying a gpu

[polar fern]

because of the card reader going int othe 5 inch bay it needs those connections internally

[manic torrent]

it uses 4 sata?

[polar fern]

because if i want to sell the gpu i want a useable platform

[elfin jetty]

I'm just planning on buying a van and taking all my tools and stuff and pc equipment. I cant give up the good free shit, lol

[polar fern]

i want sata for internal expansion

[manic torrent]

so you MASSIVELY compromise on the CPU?

[gilded quest]

buying a van
Lol I was moving with a 20ft U-Haul

[manic torrent]

5700g vs 5700x is not even a competition

[polar fern]

the 5700g is a zen 3 top end apu

[gilded quest]

Idk how I acquired so much shit

[elfin jetty]

I dont have much stuff, trust me

[polar fern]

i dont want the x i want the igpu

[gilded quest]

Can you not

[stray apex]

why

[vapid smelt]

i5 13400

[stray apex]

if you're buying a dgpu
why do you want the igpu

[polar fern]

can we focuso n the board? i need a suggestion - that one is clearly too expensive

[stray apex]

it's not like AMD igpus support quicksync or anything

[gilded quest]

I've acquired two houses worth of shit. I had to do a lot of downsizing

[elfin jetty]

can help with trouble shooting at the very least

[stray apex]

no, the board is easy, why are you throwing performance away for an igpu

[full fossil]

Backup
I did the same thing
R7000 has it anyway

This psu 💀

It’s like 1 or 2 apu cores but still

[polar fern]

what do you mean "throwing the performance away"?

[elfin jetty]

ah, fair enough. most of the stuff i'd even wanna take with me is my computer stuff

[stray apex]

why would you get a 5700g over a 5700x
for what purpose do you need the igpu

[gilded quest]

The only hats I wear are beanies from https://lttstore.com/

[polar fern]

whats the difference!?

[gilded quest]

5700g is PCIe gen 3
5700x is PCIe gen 4, also faster

[polar fern]

ok

[elfin jetty]

I'm currently wearing the hood on the potato sack hoodie from lttstore.com

[stray apex]

the 5700x is faster

[polar fern]

is there an apu with gen 4

that board seems good, thanks @stray apex

[manic torrent]

of course, it draws a lot more if you let it off the chain

[stray apex]

that's a filter so it just picks the cheapest board that has the io

[polar fern]

is there one thats like a tier above it that you'd recommend?

[manic torrent]

why above?

[stray apex]

I mean, it doesn't really matter if it's just going to be running a 5700x?

[polar fern]

future proofing/flexibility

[frigid chasm]

woftam.

[frigid chasm]

smart

[stray apex]

I mean, you're sticking on an extra 6 usb ports or something
I don't think it's gonna be an issue

[manic torrent]

no

it's the last AM4 CPU, so there's no new CPUs for it, and it already realistically has anything you would need in a sane world. absolutely not worth paying more for no benefit

[frigid chasm]

future proofing is great i will buy a 300 dollar motherboard and a ryzen 5 1600

i am not

the pc partpicker is just a "should get" list

i have a lenovo M75s-1

if lenovo had a ryzen 3 or 4 apu option in the sff i'd get that but they dont and prolly wont for another year and thats aa long time to wait with aging hardware

and the good apu they offer is oem only so thats a dead end for budget savings

and its only a ryzen 2

Lol my windows install is on a secondary SATA SSD with its NVMe driver disabled, because I don’t trust it

[uncut axle]

I had a bad idea

Go to the theaters, make a bad movie rip (like low quality, like 480p, low bit rate and bad audio), and put them on a http website (so all devices can access the movies) and call it “bad movies rips.com” or something

So just a terrible website breaking copy right laws

[coarse nacelle]

Sewy

[uncut axle]

Ofc it’s http, because everyone should watch movies without paying monopolies

Http isnt safe? But what about the people who can’t afford new pcs

Because not everyone has the money for a decently new pc

That can access https websites

[signal shale]

hey can i ask just a theorotical questionif a pc goes into fire should i use water or foam to kill the fire?

[glad mist]

Do you plan on it still working?

[signal shale]

yes

[glad mist]

If so then use CO2 if possible

[dreamy rose]

sand

[glad mist]

Yeah sand is the best option but CO2 also works for electrical fires

[signal shale]

im not near the ocean or desert

[signal shale]

thx

[dreamy rose]

are you near a Sandpit?

[glad mist]

Is this a theoretical question?

[signal shale]

no i just bein frank since i just wna know what to buy incase sht hits the fan

[cosmic ore]

Household electrical fires are usually just normal fires caused by overheating

[glad mist]

I’ve never heard of a PC catching on fire

[cosmic ore]

It happens semi occasionally

[dreamy rose]

yeah. normally you overheat your pizza.

[cosmic ore]

So you deal with it like a normal fire: water is fine. The PC would already be dead if it's on fire so throwing water on it wouldn't affect anything

[glad mist]

Also please note that if the fire spreads to the wall (which would be a class A fire), you shouldn’t use a CO2 extinguisher for the fire.

[signal shale]

but its never wrong to be one step ahead

[vapid smelt]

fire extinguisher

[glad mist]

CO2 can’t put out a class A fire very effectively. Another option that should be able to get both is a dry chemical ABC fire extinguisher, but that would nuke the PC.

[dreamy rose]

you grab what you wanna keep most and run if you cant stop it.

[glad mist]

Yep

[vapid smelt]

smother the fire with love

[dreamy rose]

love= sand

[signal shale]

ive done that i just got electricuted

[cosmic ore]

Tbh if the fire is contained in the PC case you grab it with a thick blanket and throw it outside

[signal shale]

was soo happy to finish a project last month gave my PC a hug an the pc gave me a shock aswell

[glad mist]

Btw water and foam don’t work for electrical fires

Water is class A only and foam is class AB

[signal shale]

soo co2 will do right?

[glad mist]

CO2 is flammable liquids (class B) and electric (class C)

[wanton jewel]

use a broom to put oput the fire

[glad mist]

Also if you’re concerned about cooking oil fires for whatever reason that’s a class K

[signal shale]

i just use a wet towel for that

kill the oxygen supply and the fire willl die

[glad mist]

And if a laptop is on fire with a magnesium inner frame, better hope your ass it’s not on fire because that metal could make it class D

[glad mist]

Also if a battery is on fire it’s class D

[signal shale]

if i see smoke coming out from a board its fried right?

[glad mist]

It depends on where the smoke is coming from

[signal shale]

capacitor

[glad mist]

If you can replace the cap it should* work again

i dislike batteries. even though the risk of flames is greatest when full charge or over 25% i still hate the puffed up look.

[devout oar]

LOL

[dreamy rose]

helps a lot with trolls.

[devout oar]

Yeah I understand that. It's fair.

[dreamy rose]

that being said it creates a rich/poor divide sometimes

[gilded quest]

Yeah people would be spamming fucked up stuff otherwise
Shame the bad apples have to ruin it for those with good intentions

[gilded quest]

We love a good socioeconomic class system

[full fossil]

[low rain]

One time in elementary I threw up and the nurse handed me ice

[vapid smelt]

rgb is a color model

[past egret]

i would probably call the cops if i was her

[full fossil]

[low rain]

“Are you the sun? Cause you brighten up my day.”

[full fossil]

[low rain]

Are you a Mercedes Benz? Cause i C63 reasons why we should be together.

[full fossil]

Reminder don't use this ever

@full fossil

I wouldn't cause I don't even know what uranium 238 is

[neon mesa]

these are some high school cringeworthy lines

[past egret]

dont use any of these

[neon mesa]

eh i've heard worse when i'm on high school

but still these are

[glad mist]

Oh do supporters get to post images?

[jaunty compass]

that reminds me i need to do the prime sub again

[dreamy rose]

yeah. buy FP/Nitro, Twitch and get perms

[jaunty compass]

i forgot about my twitch prime sub

[full fossil]

Wrong isotope, meant to say U-235

[glad mist]

Wdym fp/nitro

[jaunty compass]

ill do it in the morning

[glad mist]

Do nitro boosters get image perms too?

[full fossil]

Also how do you not know? Haven't you passed 7th grade?

[full fossil]

I dunno? I have both though lol

[glad mist]

Get some Pu-239

[dreamy rose]

floatplane or DC Nitro

[glad mist]

DC nitro?

[dreamy rose]

Discord? what else would DC mean. Dreamcast?

[full fossil]

I was referring to nuclear reactor meltdown

[glad mist]

I know, look up what 239 does

[neon mesa]

both U-238 and U-235 is correct
however U-238 is the naturally occuring isotope (U-235 also is but basically nonexistent, need to be enrinched first)

and only 235 can be used in nuclear reaction

[glad mist]

Pu-239 is also usable as reactor fuel

[full fossil]

U-238 is "depleated" uranium too the best of my knowledge

[glad mist]

You can use a breeder reactor to react U-238 into Pu-239 for use in fission

[full fossil]

The majority or uranium found naturally

[glad mist]

Correct, and that’s why it can be used in breeder reactors

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breeder_reactor

[neon mesa]

U-238 itself can't be used directly for creating energy

[full fossil]

That's a subject the knowledge required for my exams did not touch. Are there any documentaries on it?

[glad mist]

Good question

[full fossil]

Your pfp is rather disturbing 💀

[neon mesa]

what about it

[vapid smelt]

so is your ugly mug but we dont talk about that

[full fossil]

Whoever designed that jacket decided to combine bras with it. Its just odly disturbing

[neon mesa]

it's a cloak

[full fossil]

I will never understand animie

[neon mesa]

it's not even anime

[full fossil]

What???

[neon mesa]

it's just a personification of the russian Su-57 jet

[full fossil]

Lol

[gilded quest]

This

[dreamy rose]

me neither.

[glad mist]

Tank anime shit

[dreamy rose]

"She's actually 4000 and she's a goddess of fire" BRO ITS A CHILD.

[neon mesa]

lol using bing is free money

[gilded quest]

And you chose fuckin rubux

[neon mesa]

the only thing worth redeeming here

well there is the $5 MS Gift card, takes too long to grind.

[gilded quest]

Amazon gift card

[neon mesa]

amazon don't ship here

[dreamy rose]

they dont even give you Steam money? oh of course not because they dont like competition

[neon mesa]

i have no use for amazon/ms gift card anyway

[neon mesa]

tf

[dreamy rose]

if theres no steam Cards in Bing rewards then theres no point in using it

[neon mesa]

i mean bing is decent enough now, especially with bingGPT

i have no reason to use google
bing rewards is just the icing on the cake

[full fossil]

The shipping plus taxes is just mad. An extra $100

[dreamy rose]

no steam cards. there's just no point to it

[neon mesa]

might as well get free money while i search

[tender geyser]

Whatcha buyin

[vapid smelt]

just move to a better closer country

[full fossil]

Ltt backpack

[dreamy rose]

may as well search every key on the keyboard 100 times to farm points

[vapid smelt]

shill

[tender geyser]

Ooh nice

[neon mesa]

[gilded quest]

Bing results are sufficient like 70% of the time, maybe 80% if I'm being generous.

[neon mesa]

though i don't really need it, my daily natural searches easily add up to 30 anyway

[full fossil]

I search 500+ things daily lol

[jaunty compass]

yep. that's how desperate they are

[dreamy rose]

i dont think Private Windows count towards it

[jaunty compass]

in theory you can get free gamepass every month with just bing points from browsing

[neon mesa]

well then their plan works out well
i ditched google kek

[dreamy rose]

hard sell when the MS Store shits out on you

[full fossil]

You can install Edge on a hackintosh

[neon mesa]

except on mobile, their mobile app is still atrocious

[jaunty compass]

i did the math and it came out to you can have free game pass if you use edge on the phone and on desktop

[full fossil]

Still get bing rewards

[jaunty compass]

you get enough points for gamepass every month, so if i hated myself i could do that

[glad mist]

Animebro moment

[gilded quest]

Yeah Microsoft's mobile apps need some work

[neon mesa]

i have been using edge since forever at this point

[dreamy rose]

you get money from searching all the errors you get on a Hackintosh?

[gilded quest]

I'm edge/bing on desktop, but still locked into Google on mobile

[full fossil]

I'm gonna start. My goal is 10000? I search 500 plus things a day so it shouldn't be so hard

[gilded quest]

I can install edge on Linux
What's your point lol

[dreamy rose]

does it need to be edge or is it on anywhere

[neon mesa]

not a fan of gamepass
i got 2 months free and didn't even use it
the xbox app is shit, prefer steam

[gilded quest]

Bing rewards is for using bing, not for using edge

[full fossil]

He said I need windows to "enjoy" edge

[full fossil]

What the fuck

[gilded quest]

Although you get 20 bonus points a day if you search on edge

[jaunty compass]

that's the trick, you don't enjoy edge

[neon mesa]

bandwagon

[jaunty compass]

you use it for the free stuff, but you don't enjoy it

[neon mesa]

edge is literally superior to chrome
i have been using it wayy before this rewards stuff

[dreamy rose]

exactly. they dont offer steam cards so theres no point

[dreamy rose]

Edge is chromium.

[neon mesa]

why is your limit so big

[gilded quest]

20 for Edge
100 for mobile searches
150 for desktop searches

[gilded quest]

Desktop includes tablets

[gilded quest]

Are you currently level 2?

[neon mesa]

i've been level 2 for a while

[gilded quest]

Maybe regional differences

[pliant karma]

yes I use to do that before getting floatplane

[gilded quest]

Mine are 5 points per search

I started bing rewards in late 2020 or early 2021

[jaunty compass]

my grandmother uses bing for the rewards points, i don't even think she uses them

[full fossil]

Level 2 of what?

[neon mesa]

bing rewards?

[full fossil]

How?

[jaunty compass]

bing rewards, at level 2 you get more points and better point per reward scaling, search enough and you get level 2 which gives you more points per search and makes rewards cost less

and gives you a higher daily max

[full fossil]

How do I get to level 2 I mean

[polar fern]

Sounds just like something msft would do 🤦‍♂️

[jaunty compass]

just search

You just use bing

all you have to do is use bing consistently

[polar fern]

Why would anyone use that garbage

[gilded quest]

Use it consistently

[jaunty compass]

bing and edge

[jaunty compass]

you get free stuff through their rewards program

[polar fern]

Hard pass.

[gilded quest]

Your opinions are actual garbage, unlike Microsoft software

[neon mesa]

"i hate it because everyone do"

[polar fern]

Uh no.

[neon mesa]

edge is literally good

[jaunty compass]

i did the math and if you use it on pc and your phone you get enough points each month to get gamepass on pc just from using bing

[gilded quest]

Yeah Mr bad takes over here chiming in like usual

[jaunty compass]

I don't like bing or edge, but if i were to want gamepass I'd definitely use bing

[polar fern]

Everything msft touches turns to guano

[gilded quest]

Edge is nice

[jaunty compass]

I don't like either but $20 is $20

[gilded quest]

So what Linux distro do you run?

[dreamy rose]

huh theres a way i could get steam gift cards though this. thats too much work to go spamming searches on Edge

[neon mesa]

there are auto search extensions lol

[polar fern]

I don’t use Linux yet.

[gilded quest]

But everything Microsoft is garbage? 1?1?1

[polar fern]

Yes.

[dreamy rose]

i cant spring for a 20 dollar gift card a Coles? fuck that.

[jaunty compass]

just use edge as your main browser

[neon mesa]

been using edge as my main since 2018

[gilded quest]

I switched to edge for the native vertical tabs
