even searching GPU lol

[stray apex]

social media presence is pretty good
dunno about the browser

[indigo plume]

see alot of youtubers and stuff being sponsered by it

[dreamy rose]

Shows a 6000 seies GPU

[indigo plume]

7900xt has bad quality control

well atleast I got a bad one

idk if over all it has bad quality controll or not

but me angry

[remote idol]

I mojito have to just yank gpu out and get a new motherboard or something the latch doesn’t push back or down or anything

[stray apex]

no, the latches are just trash

push harder

power connectors and pcie latches are always hot garbage or something, it must be in the ATX standard

[near nymph]

any sexy pilots wanna join me in pilot voice?

[indigo plume]

I want to get a 4080

[remote idol]

I legit can’t push any harder

[stray apex]

all these companies trying to innovate on cable management or rgb and meanwhile I would actually murder someone if it got me not godawful power headers

[near nymph]

k... then just pull the GPU out

[dreamy rose]

terrible idea btw

[remote idol]

I can’t it’s locked

[near nymph]

then clearly you aren't pushing hard enough

[indigo plume]

maybe it is but I doing it anyway

[remote idol]

With all my force pushing down on the lock does nothing

I felt almost something pushing it back towards the motherboard but nothing when pushing it down

It’s right below the cpu cooler right?

[near nymph]

pictures?

[remote idol]

I can take a video but can’t quite get right where it is

@near nymph I dmed you

[manic torrent]

@remote idol what motherboard

google it, look for pictures of the latch mechanism.

[remote idol]

It’s a b550m pg riptide

Asrock

I finally got it

I just had to put my entire soul into murdering that latch with a screwdriver

[long briar]

one of my friends just took side cutters to it

as long as you screw it in you really don't need that lock

[remote idol]

I’m so annoyed now I can’t find the screws for the m.2 card

I shook my pc and there are no loose screws so I must have like ebeeehtijy sat them down randomly

And I don’t have memory in my brain

[long briar]

It would've been in a little bag inside of the motherboard box

[remote idol]

Like my brain doesn’t have the capacity to remember

No it’s a separate thing I bought recently

[long briar]

oh?

[remote idol]

The build isn’t new but the Wifi Bluetooth thing is

My pc doesn’t come wijt wifi or Bluetooth but just wanted Bluetooth

And this seemed easier

[long briar]

for bt you need to wire usb

[remote idol]

This is WiFi and Bluetooth

[long briar]

the card uses wifi over pcie and bt over usb

[remote idol]

The thing just says to plug it in

[unique shard]

would buying a 7600x now future proof my pc for upgrades

[manic torrent]

nothing is future proof ever

[unique shard]

i’m looking at either a 5600x which makes more sense for my build right now

but i’m also thinking a 7600x would be better for the future

[remote idol]

Maybe I got the wrong thing shit

This says something about antenna

I don’t have that

[manic torrent]

wifi needs antennas, yes

[remote idol]

My pc has none so I can’t install Bluetooth?

[finite cloud]

it will work but not as good

[remote idol]

Well I can’t even find the screws for the life of me

Might just sell my gaming pc and never touch this evil stupid shit again

[finite cloud]

it didnt come with any of these?

[remote idol]

No

Maybe I should just spend more money and just get a Bluetooth usb adapter external

[finite cloud]

they cost like $2 if you want them

[remote idol]

I don’t really feel like returning this card thing but I think you can wijt Amazon for a few days?

[manic torrent]

it's probably the best option

[remote idol]

No, it’s not. That’s silly. I use it too often to do that.

I’m just. It’s 2am and I haven’t even ate much of my food and I’m just exhausted

hey folks

im trying to sell my chromebook, any tips for selling electronics via ebay

[south stone]

So got one of those redragon keyboards, build quality seems decent, however those damn purple switches fail within months, and everyone is having the same issue.
Should I:

• Give up, keep it, buy 100 gateron switches and change them?
• Give up, keep it, buy 100 cherry switches, file them, and change them?
• Get a new one, sell it, go straight to other keyboard (although they are pretty expensive)

120 pieces of gateron are $21 on banggood.

[quartz hinge]

This time round, MS doing a "Other OS" might actually work. They want norps to run linux on windows with strategic disadvantages. Stuff like SBOM calculations will eventually kill linux in the corporate world once people are addicted to non-native. Balmers wet dream come true.

[stark sandal]

Hey anyone know how to search #1106613567966429224 now that it's a forum style channel? The standard search seems to only work on post titles losing a ton of info that is shared in the comments

[graceful burrow]

You dont! :)

isnt it great

there could be a wealth of info available
like finding a needle in a haystack

[halcyon bronze]

Oof. That's....worse...

[graceful burrow]

why do you think not a single person in this server aside the ones in charge thought it was a good idea

and the cablemod channel sponsor really does feel like a kick in the teeth
the final fuck you icing

[dusty rune]

it just makes me not want to ever buy their cables

[slim mirage]

the search results dont show things in the forum post things?

[halcyon bronze]

Not that I can tell

[graceful burrow]

For real

[slim mirage]

?

[graceful burrow]

I'd rather just make my own cables

[halcyon bronze]

I searched for "7600" and unless the post has that in the title it doesn't pick it up. Not even my own post listing it as an option

[graceful burrow]

Mine super doesn't do that

[slim mirage]

maybe the wrong search box or a reason update idk it looks new with the top part showing the forum thing

[halcyon bronze]

@graceful burrow @slim mirage figured it out. You have to watch from outside the channel

[graceful burrow]

Only one search box
Fully updated

[slim mirage]

thats goofy discord just being backwards as usual then

[halcyon bronze]

I'm on the May 30th android version of discord

[slim mirage]

the idea of searching or creating in the one search bar is very weird to m e

[graceful burrow]

If a feature doesn't work wouldn't it make sense to not base a whole sponsored channel on said broken feature?

What a waste of everyone's time

[slim mirage]

i didnt really notice it was broken until now but sponsors in a discord server is a weird way of monetising lmao

[halcyon bronze]

I seemingly can't share images, but yeah the search is broken unless you leave the channel first. Otherwise you're limited to titles of forum posts

[slim mirage]

has the cable mod sponsor been removed?

[graceful burrow]

Did it?
That'd be great

Still never buying any of their products

[slim mirage]

its not pinned for me anymore had to search for it

[graceful burrow]

Ah they just unpinned it
Fucking cringe

[idle nymph]

They had to remove the réaction 💀

[slim mirage]

whats wrong with cable mod im not up to date on what companies to boycott and such

[idle nymph]

We lost build a pc cause of them

[slim mirage]

lmao is that why?

[graceful burrow]

This
That post
That post exactly
I don't come to discord to get advertised at
Especially not when they ruin a channel to advertise

[slim mirage]

i prefer the forum style personally but if you used the old style i can see why it would be annoying

[idle nymph]

That and their fucking shitty sponsor Post

[slim mirage]

Sponsorblock discord edition

[idle nymph]

I love the thumb down reaction

[halcyon bronze]

Sooo.... When does it go back to normal?

[graceful burrow]

It doesnt

The mod team doesn't give a shit about it

[halcyon bronze]

Wow, shit deal for everyone then huh?

[idle nymph]

Never

[graceful burrow]

Yes

[slim mirage]

wouldnt cable mod just add resistance to your cables? or do they replace the curent cables or just attach onto them?

[idle nymph]

Build a pc suck ass now

[graceful burrow]

They're extensions usually
The resistances added are so small it doesn't matter

They do make some psu specific stuff iirc

[halcyon bronze]

Ok so assuming that with #1106613567966429224 dead it will never return to normal...where do I go with my questions on that topic? Is there another discord better suited to this?

[graceful burrow]

That's the channel
I'm unsure of any other discord's and at risk of getting beaned for "advertising" other discord's I won't even venture to try and answer that

[halcyon bronze]

Got it, sorry didn't realize that could be ban-able nvm then

[idle nymph]

You go there and pray people see your Post and help you

[halcyon bronze]

Appreciate the help folks. I'm gonna do some digging around and see what I can find then. I hate the new forum style channels so don't see myself using them past the couple posts I already tried (& did get some help in to be fair)

It's not about resistance it's about voltage drop (for cable extensions)

[young lark]

is linu's pc building guide the best to follow for a new builder?

[graceful burrow]

It's pretty comprehensive

[mint yacht]

One of the better ones

[graceful burrow]

It's definitely one of the better ones yeah

[young lark]

so i should probably follow it to start building

[graceful burrow]

You should follow it to learn general information and best practices

[elfin jetty]

With enough duct tape and determination, anything is possible

[graceful burrow]

It isn't a step by step guide as every pc is a bit different

[dreamy rose]

TaiWAN show tomorrow whos looking forward?

[graceful burrow]

I don't watch ltt

More excited to go to microcenter Saturday

[young lark]

but it is good to have it on while building the computer right?

[elfin jetty]

The basics will almost always be the same

[graceful burrow]

Bro I ain't gonna answer the same question 30 times

[dreamy rose]

if you wanna follow it go ahead but keep in mind what you buy is almost guaranteed to be completely different

[near nymph]

Well... Considering the movement is very politicized. And due to recent events... I think it's a good idea to keep it as is 🙂

[manic torrent]

Which events? The trash taking itself out?

[normal cargo]

Which is caused by resistance :p

[mint yacht]

I will ask the rest of the team and see if we'll get one

Hi. Should I install Windows 11? Or will it disable some emulators that I won't be able to use?

[ashen zodiac]

Windows 11 is trash, just stay on Windows 10 if you can

[still light]

I like W11....

[ashen zodiac]

why?

[still light]

Looks good and functions good. I've not had issues with it.

[real schooner]

Upgrading from win10, don't bother, upgrading from Win7, yes

[teal hill]

Same here, never had any issues, + helps the 12th gen intel cpu

[real schooner]

If you're currently running any other editions of windows, who even are you?

[ashen zodiac]

except they took away a ton of features, it's riddled with bugs...

Name something that isn't "riddled" with bugs.

[ashen zodiac]

Windows 10? 10 is pretty damn stable these days

[teal hill]

Meh, win 11 is good for me

[real schooner]

11 is possibly more stable if theres fewer features to potentially crash 😅

[ashen zodiac]

that's not how that works

[teal hill]

It basically comes down to "do you want to"

I wanted to and it's been great, rtx gpu and intel cpu, not amd mind you

I've not had any issues either with AMD/AMD

As I said before, which OS are you looking to upgrade from?

[full fossil]

Will Windows 11 or Windows 10 consume more RAM in 2023?

[wispy marsh]

Intel has an obscene pervasion of locking down CPU features according to chipsets

Pray they don't lock your cpu down to one generation per motherboard chipset

[slim barn]

"Unlock extra cores for £9.99 per month."

[dreamy rose]

pray they don't make you subscribe to intel ultra plus and give you your p cores back

[wispy marsh]

Last time I checked, they planned on doing that

Hardware as a service

Not even IAAS. The processor that you run, that you hold in your hands, that you use with the system that you bought, that you subscribe to, does not belong to you

[stray apex]

I'm pretty sure the plan is to unlock accelerators based on subscription

[dreamy rose]

i kinda hope they do it cause it would be funny if they thought anyone would pay for it instead of buying Ryzen.

would be hell of a news week wouldnt it.

[slim barn]

If they did you can bet their GPUs would follow with something similar.

[ashen zodiac]

they can't do that unless they stop supporting linux, since that subscription thing would need to be open source to be in the linux kernel. hence it would be insstantly figured out

take away debris whit something whitout putting off the thermal paste, then put it, order new thermal paste if temp suck

[idle nymph]

that would make amd even more needed for linux lol

[dreamy rose]

what exactly do they loose by ditching linux anyway?

[stray apex]

I mean, that doesn't matter
if intel's license says that you can't use the accelerator without paying them, then no datacenter is going to turn them on without paying for it

[ashen zodiac]

datacenters?

[stray apex]

you might be able to hack something together, but intel doesn't give a shit if some random person gets it working

[wispy marsh]

Intel giving up datacenters?

[dreamy rose]

Exactly because linux is Important. much more so than proprietary crap,

[wispy marsh]

This isn't IntelSoft, there is no hybrid competition to Apple in the consumer market

whats some good games

[dreamy rose]

uh oh i smell trouble

[wispy marsh]

#public-chat message

[dreamy rose]

Team Fortress 2, Chillout VR, Bonanza Bros, Bully: Scholarship Edition

[idle nymph]

be more precise

[slim barn]

It's down to personal opinion. What some like, you might not.

[young lark]

cant remove the debris any other ideas?

[idle nymph]

why you cant ?

send a picture

[wispy marsh]

You might wanna check with your attorney whether you're legally allowed to remove that debris

[young lark]

1 sec

[wispy marsh]

[dreamy rose]

if you wanna dabble into open source then there's a little known game called Super Tux Kart which is pretty cool

[wispy marsh]

Lol he's still reading my list

Games are too good innit

[full fossil]

ive never had enough storage for more then like 2 games and now im surrounded by so much and idk what to get

i think im gonna try rdr2, alwasy wanted to play it

[wispy marsh]

First.

SN570 2TB

[full fossil]

i got 12tb of m.2 ssd

[wispy marsh]

Lol

[dreamy rose]

dont see any mentions of Team Fortress 2 or Bully in here are you sure you got your list right?

[wispy marsh]

Those are games they i like and love

[wispy marsh]

Bully fucked up at 120hz, but I'll also recommend it

[dreamy rose]

Bully is that one rockstar game that drummed up a shit ton of stupid controversy, launched, nobody really played and then everyone wants another one with a sequel going through development hell and eventually being chopped up into parts of future titles,

[young lark]

where should i send it?

[wispy marsh]

Don't explain anymore

Just know that i like it as a good game

Are AMD CPUs in laptops almost always overclocked? I heard that AMD is known for overclocking, is that true?

[wispy marsh]

Err

[dreamy rose]

idk if thats true especially in a laptop

[wispy marsh]

All cpus have a boost and base clock. How much it boosts depends on tuning and pbo/xfr

[idle nymph]

i got an amd cpu in my laptop, nope it aint, but i aint the world

[final lily]

I haven't really ran on to this problem before, since i historically haven't owned iMacs, and i never broken a monitor myself; i just got this 27" imac cheap used. But they somehow damaged the glass on the monitor. It isn't deep enough to disrupt functionality, but not shallow enough not to be pretty noticable

Any advice on what i can do to repair it or make it less noticable?

[full fossil]

I don’t remember asking

[idle nymph]

you aint the world, youre just a jerk

[dreamy rose]

aw hell nah bros actually pulling the neuclear option

[ashen zodiac]

depends how old it is. does it have an optical drive?

[final lily]

Nuclear how? Showing his bad personality?

[dreamy rose]

earlier he said "Ban me i need to focus on my finals"

or some shit like that

[final lily]

It's a late 2012 model. So it's all the same peace and not a separate layer with magnets

[ashen zodiac]

@final lily sorry i was thinking of the wrong model. on a 27" as far as i know the glass is glued to the screen. the only way to fix it would be to replace the display which is very expensive.

what i would do is just attach another monitor to it and use that as main display, and use the iMac's screen as a secondary monitor for discord or smth

[full fossil]

You’re the jerk, shut up.

[ashen zodiac]

[final lily]

Yeah, i figured as much. Unless i happen to stumble on a similar 27' that has a broken Mobo but with intact screen I'll have to live with it for awhile

[ashen zodiac]

indeed. it's a decent machine otherwise

[full fossil]

I got glued my heat sink to my cpu, works great! Runs at 98 C

[ashen zodiac]

stupid troll

[full fossil]

I wasn’t joking

I did it with an old laptop my friend gave me

[final lily]

I'm not displeased with it, for the price i got it for. But the egghead that was inside this machine last did something not correct. I believe they didn't connect the display ribbon properly, since it's stuck at only 720p on the main display

[dreamy rose]

i did too. Wonderful space heater only consumes 70 Watts

[ashen zodiac]

what the fuck, what OS is on it rn?

[full fossil]

The cpu doesn’t melt the glue so it’s kinda stuck lol

No point getting yourself banned. You aint passing your finals. You lack the intelligence.

[dreamy rose]

ChromeOS is downloaded through an extention.

[full fossil]

Chromium based

Might as well just leave if you guys wont ban me

[final lily]

Been in settings and on different threads discussing the odd resolution. It doesn't display properly on boot, doesn't scale correctly even with a second monitor connected (second monitor scales correctly, the main display scales incorrectly if mirrored to the second monitor) etc, etc

[ashen zodiac]

you could try booting up Linux, because Linux won't care about Apple's proprietary drivers and scaling

[final lily]

Currently on Catalina, upgraded today from Mojave

[final lily]

It doesn't display the boot options screen on boot, and the second monitor outputs nothing since it senses the main monitor to some degree

[ashen zodiac]

oh shit. yeah something is wrong with it for sure

[final lily]

My research points to a not fully connected monitor cable. Which wouldn't been an issue.. aside from the headache of the glued down monitor, meaning i need to purchase either proper adhesive strips, from the likes of ifixit. Or double sided tape, which is annoying at the best of times, not fully functional at worst and still a pain to remove and replace every time i need to open up the machine for trouble shooting and swapping parts

[ashen zodiac]

not to mention you have a cracked screen so you need to be insanely careful

[final lily]

It's not even cracked, just a pretty Deep scratch

[dreamy rose]

TBF you did buy an Apple product and you got what you paid for. a headache.

[final lily]

A picture of it in tech chat #2

[final lily]

Well, buying anything from anyone is a headache

[dreamy rose]

true that

i cant buy a laptop without the 250 dollar tax that is a windows licence

[final lily]

Apple don't get a free pass, they have some ass hardware that's very non user maintainable friendly. But pretty much every big manufacturer throughout time has given me headaches through out the years

[final lily]

Not because I like dell, but they do sell (did sell) hardware without windows licenses

[ashen zodiac]

they still do

[final lily]

Yes, but when it comes to laptops, i wonder where they start and stop with which models they sell without a license. Non of the cheaper ones, nor gaming focused ones would be sold without a license

[dreamy rose]

sure did. we got this neat little animation too
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apx_HyxFqjA

it wold be cool if this was remade for SteamOS ngl.

[final lily]

Well, there probably is ways to get a splash screen like that, and make one from scratch

It's Linux after all

[dreamy rose]

absolutely. Big Picture and SteamOS have their ways to customise boot screens

[final lily]

So, wouldn't be a stretch to make a similar "intro screen" to promote steam os

[dreamy rose]

absolutely, you just need skill to remake it.

perfect time to remake Sega Rally Chapionship is its 30th anniversary with all the new fancy RTs and stuff

[final lily]

Well, i neither care for budget remakes, nor ray tracing. So i can happily reply older titles on the toaster machines i have today

[dreamy rose]

i just wanna be able to buy a Sega Rally/ Daytona USA/ Virtua Racing game in general

I'm probably going to get flac from writing this "it's always morally correct to "borrow" software that you no longer can buy and use it any way you want" 🙃

[dreamy rose]

that logic stands

may not legally, but its logical nonetheless

[final lily]

If it's one small step away from abandonewear, i wouldn't really see it as a moral issue. And not to let big companies to monopolize the things you're allowed to own and use

[dreamy rose]

i've honestly lost my faith in Sega.

highly doubt the highest grossing arcade game of 1994 AND 1995 is gonna get to celebrate the 30th it deserves.

[vital jay]

So... sorry ro interrupt, but i just gotta know, have any of you ever seen a motherboard designed for stationery and upgradability, but it has SODIMM instead of just DIMM

Cuz this sure is my first

[final lily]

Wdym?

[dreamy rose]

Mini PC?

[vital jay]

Yep, i think the name was like slim or super slim

[mint yacht]

Yes

[final lily]

I've seen multiple machines with desktop CPUs run on laptop ram. Seeing frankly laptop CPUs run on full length desktop ram is more rare nowadays

[dreamy rose]

plenty of those exist out in the wild. go look at the Minisforums with the Ryzen 7000 chips those are crazy

[mint yacht]

Asrock's X299M-ITX or whatever
Asrock's entire lineup of mSTX boards
Literally any thin mITX PCs

[final lily]

Very cool machines, if i didn't already have multiple desktop towers, and they didn't cost as much. I would use one as my daily driver

[dreamy rose]

i need an upgrade so bad but if i didn't need a laptop i'd probably have one and a separate VR Rig.

[final lily]

Why not get a used laptop and save up for one anyways?

I haven't bought a new laptop in over 20 years

[vital jay]

Damnnn

[dreamy rose]

yeah. that's a laptop CPU gaming all alone. AMD everyone.

[vital jay]

I had literally no idea these existed, granted i got into this not too long ago, but still, i thought i would have figured this one out by now xD

[vital jay]

Agreed xD

[dreamy rose]

i'm already on a "Laptop" right now.

[final lily]

What is your current machine, and what is the specs you need?

[dreamy rose]

i5 2450M, GT 540M, 8GB DDR3 @late frost5Mhz 256GB SSD+ 1TB HDD

[full fossil]

https://youtu.be/y3uh7s3Scuo

[dreamy rose]

oh fuck off 66 is a persons name?

[final lily]

Well, i can see that one would like to upgrade from those specs, If the battery too is getting tired

Even if i would've jumped to Linux myself on those specs

[full fossil]

Ubuntu is the OS i run on everything other than my work PC

I have an ancient i5 (5th gen) laptop want with an SSD it runs great with Ubuntu

[dreamy rose]

before i permanently plugged it into wall power it was like 14-11 Whrs from 48. replacable ofc this was 2012 so.

[final lily]

I don't vibe with Ubuntu. I use pretty much any other distro myself. Even if i can admit that for most people Ubuntu is "fine"

[dreamy rose]

Ubuntu is pointless when Debian is the same thing without a company in the middle

[final lily]

I find it comical that 5th gen Intel is "ancient"

[full fossil]

I mean, in computer terms it is, unfortunately

[final lily]

Pretty much, except when Debian is a pain to work with

[full fossil]

We have come a long way in a short time

[stray apex]

it's been a decade

[final lily]

We could talk about the ancient machines of the p4's and core2 cpus

[dreamy rose]

Pentium 1 can run Linux 6.0. that's ancient hardware with true support still

[crude jasper]

those certainly are ancient nowadays

they were good at playing their current gen games ~ not the case for our gen

[bold echo]

any idea when the wan show will be today/tomorrow

[full fossil]

I have an athlon x2 with a 8800gts for retro gaming, but they still doesn't mean 5th isn't ancient

[crude jasper]

having backwards compability with the things is still very useful because they can do minor work for cheaper

[bold echo]

or should we expect it to be at the usual "late" hour

[final lily]

Well, if we take the i5 2500k with a decent oc, it can still pull some punches. Not because I'm saying "it's a good experience" but still

[dreamy rose]

and about this: i tried. Fermi doesn't have support for Vulkan so no proton.

[stray apex]

within twenty four hours

linus is in taiwan for computex so

[bold echo]

This is the reason I'm asking

[dreamy rose]

idk whos using a Pentium 133 with linux Kernel 6.0 but its possible.

[bold echo]

usually for me is at 5 am in the morning, I wish to know if tomorrow I should wake up earlier or later, or if I should stay late today

[stray apex]

I mean, wan show does not tend to be early

[final lily]

Barely, if even one has the experience to fiddle with old Linux and hardware quirks of the era

I still have core2 machines I use on a semi weekly basis. I have 4th gen Intel machines i use on a daily basis

Any recommendations for where I can buy some keycap sets for my Keychron Q1 Pro QMK/VIA Wireless

[final lily]

I've ran Win10 on a p3 for shit and giggles

[dreamy rose]

i ran the leaked Win 11 build on a Celeron N2940 once.

[fallen bough]

I used a kms activation key but lost the real one which came with my laptop How can I get the real product key

[dreamy rose]

depends on how old it is but you should have it embedded in the BIOS if you have a UEFI on your laptop

[fallen bough]

its a year old

[final lily]

Well, celerons has a valid use case for a short time in the mid 2000's but the absolute bottom of barrel components they get paired with makes them even more useless then they potentially could've been

[dreamy rose]

that laptop was for Roblox and not much else. it worked.
mostly.

[final lily]

"modern" celerons I've only seen people tinker with on YouTube. They're literally obsolete before they hit market shelves

Arguably the cheap i3 laptops around 2014 was the same sad story as the Celeron machines. Not that win 8 helped things

[dreamy rose]

a real sad story is the GT 540M.

1GB DDR3 VRAM.

[long briar]

?

Modern celerons are great for personal Nas or VPS uses

[dreamy rose]

thats not who they market them to though

[wispy marsh]

I swapped out the posturefit for the lumbar support on the Aeron

It feels so good now

[full fossil]

Anyone here do Duolingo?

[long briar]

that's not who is buying them either. Celerons aren't marketed

[long briar]

I used to, why?

Just looking to find some motivation buddies

Oh I'm not one for that lmao

I went straight to the final level for Chinese, finished it and left it at that

For Japanese I learned a bit and just left it

[full fossil]

I'm doing Spanish

[long briar]

Ok yea can't help you there

[full fossil]

Haha not looking for help per se, just accountability buddies

[long briar]

Duolingo is great for getting the basics of the language down, but if you want to advance faster the best solution is actually vacationing into the country

-My experience trying Chinese, I can tell that a lot of the phrases are literal, so certain "slang" pronunciations everyone uses doesn't happen

[full fossil]

I decided to finally stop doing the bare minimum and actually try to learn, but I'm worried I won't keep it up. You can see here I've got a 140+ day streak but yet I've done like 50% of my xp is the last 5 days

[long briar]

Dang

you go

[full fossil]

Que?

I'm trying to beat the day before everyday for as long as I can

Another issue is im in the UK, so I'm more likely to experience European Spanish whereas Duolingo is more aimed at Latin America. But I'm not looking to only learn on here, eventually I'm thinking about taking actual Spanish classes

[final lily]

I were talking about the laptops, and the few diy motherboards for Nas use were not super available in all markets

[long briar]

Ohhh

I've never seen celeron laptops outside of Chromebooks

[full fossil]

Never??? They were very common only a few years ago for low end laptops and high end netbooks

[final lily]

They do exist. And they were not great.

Was going to mention the Eee PC (but those had the Intel atoms)

Very low end ThinkPads too.. if memory serve

[full fossil]

I really think a modern atom could be interesting tbh, E-cores are basically modern atom cores

[long briar]

eepc was Intel atoms indeed

[long briar]

e cores are modern skylake cores... after atom was basically deprecated

[full fossil]

That's not really true

They perform like skylake cores, but are nothing like them in design

[mint yacht]

Current E-cores use the Gracemont architecture
Which is literally what is used for ATM

[full fossil]

ATM?

[mint yacht]

atom but I guess I mentally autocorrected it

[final lily]

It's not correct, but since i mostly only smirked at the idea of p-cores and e-cores. Til maybe 13th gen. All I saw it was the newest desktop CPU cores bundled with the newest laptop cores from Intel wrapped in to one cpu

[full fossil]

Hehe fairs

I'm glad someone else knowns architecture like me lol

They are also not that efficient in terms of perf/watt, they are silicon efficient though

[mint yacht]

I do like how space efficient they are
Sometimes I wonder if Intel will start doing chiplets for mainstream CPUs and put the e-cores in one chiplet and the p-cores in the other

[full fossil]

That's not too say they aren't more power efficient then P core, it's just not as much as you would think

[mint yacht]

I could imagine AMD doing a Zen5 P-core CCD and a Zen4c E-core CCD, that would be quite nice

[full fossil]

I also think it would be interested to see a modern Xeon phi with e cores

Interesting*

[final lily]

thus I've disregarded them as laptop cores and not much else i will happily stay on late am4 machines for multiple years to come

[full fossil]

I'm on a 5950x for my main

[dreamy rose]

Laptops dont deserve the disrespect. call them 14NM cores instead.

[final lily]

14:+++++++

[mint yacht]

tbf, most recent Xeon Phi used Airmont according to wikipedia was was the arch before Goldmont (current E-cores)

[dreamy rose]

thats kinda basically what they are

[full fossil]

I know, hence why a modern phi woolly be interesting

[final lily]

Which why i don't see 4th gen Intel as "ancient" in contrast to what people say "it's over a decade old"

[full fossil]

I mean I have a Xeon 2699V4 in my server, that's getting on a bit these days

[dreamy rose]

i feel like 2nd gen is still recent enough to not be.

Still runs a supported Windows just fine with no issues on install

[final lily]

Well, everything is relative to each other. If we really would go on about "performance per watt" we could just argue that a Mac mini m2 is "kinda the best" in that vacuum. But i wouldn't say a apple silicone Mac is great as a server

[final lily]

First gen core-i machines are arguably the same. Minus even worse usb 3 support

[full fossil]

Huh? Obviously everything is relative, no matter if you are talking about cars, computers are people it's all relative

[dreamy rose]

i dont even have USB 3.

(Thanks Acer real cool of you)

[final lily]

My argument is, pretty much any hardware (within reason) can do a decent job as either a personal computer or server.

[molten drift]

I'm pretty happy broke 100k gamerscore on Xbox today.

[final lily]

Tbf, USB 3 wasn't yet super mainstream, and it is Acer. Acer ain't bad, but doesn't put on the "flashy" stuff to keep pricing down

[dreamy rose]

i'm thinking of buying a Mini PCIE to PCIE adapter to throw into my barely a laptop and getting an RX6600 to bypass my shitty 540M. it'll be bottlenecked to hell but faster than that piece of crap.

think of its performance as a worse version of UHD 605

[final lily]

Wouldn't it be cheaper, and or less risky to see if you can snipe a deal on PC hardware someone sells locally used?

[dreamy rose]

yeah. however i honestly wanna get in on RDNA2 and not anything before that. if i'm planning to go all AMD next i should make sure i have some experience as "AMD BAD" is rampant everywhere yk what thats like.

[stray apex]

buy a cheap used office pc for $100
buy 6600xt for $150 used or whatever
done

[final lily]

My main rigs are amd only. And people are either doing things wrong or are talking crap

[final lily]

Well, yes. People don't know how hardware works, and barely understand basics of of software

[dreamy rose]

Nvidia fans showing up thinking their snake will be bigger because they say AMD Driver bad

[stray apex]

AMD drivers actually worse
fine in games, almost always fine for productivity, but sometimes it's still broken

[final lily]

so is Nvidia in my experience

[dreamy rose]

Nvidia is just as bad with issues. they just have a decade of CUDA Biased software on their side.

[stray apex]

software which supports GPU will basically always support nvidia

because if it doesn't work on nvidia
then it might as well not exist for most of your users

[final lily]

You ever worked with laptops made for CAD? My experience with those Quadro cards has been one pitfall, after an other..after an other

[stray apex]

uh huh, now try it with radeon

[long briar]

Rocm is gonna be one pitfall... and just never working again

[dreamy rose]

apart from barely being able to find one ofc. because Nvidia is so bloody greedy big gobshyte shit.

[final lily]

I have, not apple to apples. But I've had less fuss with making a Radeon machine to drop in replace the shit show the laptops was at my prior work

[stray apex]

I like how you think that a company being successful makes them greedy

as if AMD would be super successful, if not for all those other companies that made better products for years
curse those other companies and their not shit products

[dreamy rose]

they are Successful because they are greedy dont get it twisted

[stray apex]

then why is AMD not successful

do you think they're not just as greedy as any other corporation

[dreamy rose]

because Nvidia is greedier and people willingly enable them by buying their overpriced trash.

[final lily]

we can all agree that big companies aren't your friends

I wanted help with changing file permissions of a user on Windows

I want the user to be able to access the files inside a folder, but not be able to copy that file anywhere else

If I don't give "read" permission, they cannot copy but also cannot access

[stray apex]

lmao okay
cope, as they say

[dreamy rose]

4060s and 4070s are trash. its a fact. people still buy them.

[stray apex]

4070 is great

power efficient, reasonably sized, powerful enough for whatever

it's around $50 too expensive, but oh well

[dreamy rose]

at best its a 4060 at 70 class price , 4060 is just a 4050, same deal.

[stray apex]

then what do you call AMD's releases lmao

a 7400 at 7600 price?

[dreamy rose]

they fucked up the 7900XT at launch but corrected the price. 7600 is better than the 4060 being a 270 dollar card.

[stray apex]

7600 is worse than 4060, being also a 1080p card in the $300 price range except without nvidia features

and 7900xt still goes for like $800

[dreamy rose]

doesnt matter what its slightly worse than when its a chunk cheaper. and isnt this compared to the 400 dollar 4060Ti 8GB too?

[stray apex]

why would you compare the 7600 to the 4060ti? the 4060ti is noticably faster

the unreleased 4060 is expected to perform similarly to the 7600 and cost around the same
while having better features
again
thanks amd

[dreamy rose]

"around the same" while the 7600 is literally 9/10ths the price for what a dink in performance at worst?

[stray apex]

wow, a whole $30 difference at msrp

that's definitely going to get AMD the market share this gen

[spiral kraken]

i see we're still arguing over gpu manufacturers

[stray apex]

tech boring
nothing fun at computex

[spiral kraken]

both are shit, issue resolved

[dreamy rose]

well go ask Gamers Nexus then.

[final lily]

Answer would be to buy used and be happy if you get a good deal

[dreamy rose]

And Linus.

[stray apex]

yes, they compare them because they're in the same gen

they don't compare them as if they're cards you would buy over the other

[dreamy rose]

still shows that its a better buy over the 4060s you can buy right now.

[stray apex]

there are no 4060s you can buy right now

[dreamy rose]

Explain all these listings then
https://www.centrecom.com.au/geforce-rtx-4060-ti

[stray apex]

those look like 4060ti's

[crude jasper]

those are 4060tis

[dreamy rose]

they are still 4060s

[vapid canyon]

The 4070 is perfectly fine

[stray apex]

they
literally aren't

[crude jasper]

no?

[dreamy rose]

its in the name they are the 4000 series 60 class cards the Ti doesnt matter when i say the 4060s i mean ALL of them.

[crude jasper]

thats like saying a 3070 ti is a 3070 ~ its not. it has a completely different chip

[stray apex]

they are literally different gpu dies

[dusty rune]

btw how much power does the 4060 consume?

[stray apex]

probably like 125 or something

[dusty rune]

isnt that 4060ti

[dreamy rose]

doesnt matter shit they are in the same Class.

[stray apex]

is it?
idk, 100 then

[dusty rune]

eh, ig

the 4060 is lowkey cute af

[stray apex]

that's like saying the 3060ti and the 3070 are basically the same

[dreamy rose]

Way off. 160

[crude jasper]

or 3070 and 3070 ti

they have different chips

[stray apex]

a 4060 ti draws 140
a 4060 will probably draw around 100-125

[dreamy rose]

no it is not. the 4060 and the 4060Ti are the 60 class of cards.

[stray apex]

you're literally just wrong
like
this isn't even vaguely debatable, the 4060ti is objectively not the same as a 4060

[spiral kraken]

always entertaining to see an argument in public chat

can you guys just compare the spec sheet and call it a day

[stray apex]

it's like saying a 6700 is the same thing as a 6750xt

or that all ryzen 7's are the same

[vapid canyon]

Yes, it’s hilarious

[crude jasper]

"this 6950xt is the same as the 6900xt" 6900xt transient spikes incoming

[wispy marsh]

Does 50XT mitigate spikes?

[stray apex]

6950xt
6900xt
same thing

[dreamy rose]

stupid shit to hang onto. as i was saying how little a hit is it compared to price? its certainly a better cost perf frame over the 4060Ti thats for pissing sure.

[wispy marsh]

Hm. What about 7000's?

[crude jasper]

yes

[wispy marsh]

I heard both 6000 and 3000 has terrible spikes, whereas they were toned down in the following gen

[crude jasper]

3090 was the only one that had superbad transient spike issues

but thats more a fault of PSU manufacturers for the 3090, 550Ws could run it

[dreamy rose]

Cost per frame is gonna be even more on a 4060. at 300 dollars if its the same performance? just buy the cheaper one.

[wispy marsh]

I don't think it's totally a psu fault

[crude jasper]

not to mention most of the models having issues ~ were seasonic focus 1st/2nd gen

[crude jasper]

yes it is ~ it should be able to handle the spike

[wispy marsh]

psu and gpu makers don't communicate and that's where spike shutdowns come in

[crude jasper]

no? just build a good power supply to give power to the $1,500 card

[wispy marsh]

I get what you mean

Modern psus should do it, but ones that are 6 or 8 year old though, I think the users of those should look at spikes because they're most likely keeping those

[dreamy rose]

i wonder if anyone decided to use the PSU from their IBM.

[crude jasper]

corsair HXi, AXi, RMi, RMx, numerous others

psu tech really hasn't progressed that far

[dusty rune]

i get RMx but AXi is just so overkill

[crude jasper]

for the average consumer anyways

[ashen zodiac]

my psu is massively overspecced, i have an 850W for a 4670K and a 1060. just peace of mind. i've lost a system to a psu blowing up, not making that mistake again

[crude jasper]

no its not

it has its usecases, you obviously shouldn't buy one for a single gpu system with a card that pulls under 500W though

[spiral kraken]

damn i think my old rig died due to the psu taking everything with it

[dreamy rose]

i had someone in a server that got a 1000W PSU for a system that's kinda similar.

[gilded quest]

but i want AXi
(or HXi 2022)

[ashen zodiac]

yep. hence i went overkill. BitFenix Whipser 850W for that system

[ashen zodiac]

not even i will go that far

[crude jasper]

HXi has been good

[dreamy rose]

it was stupid but it turned out to be good because their partner needed to upgrade from an 850.

[crude jasper]

my 2013 hx750i is great

[spiral kraken]

i tested the boot ssd from my system yesterday, didnt show up. at this point i have come to the conclusion that the psu was subpar

[gilded quest]

I have a Type 3 (2013? 2014?) HX850i and I love it
i'm a sucker for power data

[spiral kraken]

invest in your psus man

[gilded quest]

like i should shove a $20 in the psu every week?

[spiral kraken]

maybe

maybe it likes it too who knows

[dreamy rose]

you suck on power? tastes like burnt tongue doesn't it?

[crude jasper]

it's a 2013, but hopefully it dies soon so you can RMA it within warranty.

[spiral kraken]

give it coins too for good measure

[crude jasper]

my HX750i lost wattage capability after 8 years, i am RMAing it soon

[ashen zodiac]

RMAing after 8 years?

[gilded quest]

i trust the quality of mine

[dreamy rose]

places offer lifetime afaik.

[crude jasper]

10 year warranty

[gilded quest]

i'd rma mine if it died

but if it dies after 2025....i think i'd be interested in a new PSU with more current connectors

[crude jasper]

it's still a power supply, its pretty likely to die within 15 years of production

i'd trust something like the AX1600i to last longer but generally they will die before that

AX1600i has superb build quality

[gilded quest]

i'd like more PCIe plugs, 12V sb (whatever the difference between corsair type 4 and type 3 24 pin is), and PCIe 5.0 16 pin

[dreamy rose]

2050 watt PSU?

heheh. you know what the 5090 is gonna want now.

[gilded forge]

why stop there? why not power your PC at the power grid?

[full fossil]

2023 watt

my PSU nearly caught fire but im ogay

[stray apex]

not sure what that has to do with power supplies but happy pride month

[full fossil]

uh

I could have bought another PSU and not a thermaltake one ngl

[mint yacht]

You could've referenced the Cultist's PSU tier list before buying a PSU at all

[full fossil]

I've never even built a pc before
I'm finally working on one for the first time at least

decided to go with an fsp one

https://a.co/d/dXoEtWX

[still light]

Only good psu is corsair 600watt sfx

[full fossil]

hope it doesn't cost too much for my broke ass

[ashen zodiac]

the cultists have no idea what they are talking about

they're literally just a group of sad losers with nothing better to do

[mint yacht]

Sounds like they hurt you somehow

What place would you recommend for PSU recommendations and tiering then?

[stoic beacon]

So who does?....

[ashen zodiac]

oh idk? independent reviews?

Puget systems for example? https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/most-reliable-pc-hardware-of-2021-2279/#Power_Supplies_PSUs

that list is from 2021, i'm sure there are newer ones

[stoic beacon]

You'd rather go with independent reviewers who can get bought out for paltry amounts over a well known community that puts together a database?

[ashen zodiac]

"well known"

compared to Puget systems?

[stoic beacon]

Most of those "Most/Best/Fastest X in 2021" lists are straight up garbage because the journalist that wrote the article gets paid to sponsor stuff

[ashen zodiac]

do you even know who Puget are?

[stoic beacon]

That's why community driven results are usually better than "independent reviewers"

[ashen zodiac]

again, do you know who Puget are?

just in case you don't https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puget_Systems

[stoic beacon]

Do you know who William George is?

[molten drift]

The only reason I heard of Puget is from an old barnacles nerdgasm sponsored video

[ashen zodiac]

it's not like LTT references them a ton

oh wait they do

[molten drift]

I've not once heard ltt mention them that I can recall.

[stoic beacon]

Who is William George?

[ashen zodiac]

a big auction site according to google? why does that matter?

[stoic beacon]

See, this is why you're an idiot. That's who wrote the article, not Puget Systems. Sorry to burst your koolaid bubble here, but even just reading through that list, it's not ANYWHERE near specific enough to buy a power supply. "EVGA SuperNova 850w is good." Which one? There are lots of variations of all of those.

[ashen zodiac]

show me a single time the cucktists were a reliable source

[stoic beacon]

In addition to this, it states VERY clearly that they're only reviewing the ones that they sell.

[molten drift]

As well as that article is 2 years out of date

[stoic beacon]

So that limits them down to these two brands anyways.

[ashen zodiac]

that does not mean the information is useless. how can you check internal data for faillures if you don't sell it

[stoic beacon]

Which makes their "rankings" worthless. "Of these two PSUs, we found that this one fails 0.107% more of the time."

Lol, okay.

[stoic beacon]

By testing it, which is the entire point of LTT, Cultists, HU, GN, or anybody else, for that matter.

[ashen zodiac]

how dare you compare the cucktists to GN

[molten drift]

By reviewing and testing the product like the ltt labs.. and gamers Nexus

[stoic beacon]

If you think Cultists is stupid, leave this discord immediately and unsubscribe to all your tech channels, because GN, LTT, and Cultists are all the same.

[molten drift]

Who don't sell products. But infact review them.

[stoic beacon]

Otherwise, I cannot possibly fathom a being of this level of unintelligence.

[ashen zodiac]

they are not

[stoic beacon]

Annnnd.....skip!

[molten drift]

So Ethan how are you doing today

[ashen zodiac]

what testing do the cucktists use

where is their testing method explained? not on their website, i control f'd for test and it's all random crap, no list of how they test

[stoic beacon]

Pretty good, just got finished upgrading the onsite servers where I work...the main tech guy has been out sick for a while, so we've been filling in as needed. A day of putting together ethernet cables can be rather boring....

[ashen zodiac]

@stoic beacon you're just gonna ignore me now? this is a valid question lmfao

very big of you, acting like you're 12 ignoring people on purpose

[molten drift]

Sounds like a fulfilling day. I'm just work and we're getting several of the services restored today that have been down since our ransomware attack in April. I'm a bit toasty but thankfully it should start to break in the next hour or two.

[ashen zodiac]

also the cucktists have broken icons on their site! how professional

[stoic beacon]

Ransomware attack? Was it one of the big ones?

[still light]

Did they pay the ransom?

[molten drift]

We made some news stations and I've been offered 2 years credit monitoring. So I don't know how big that is

[ashen zodiac]

@stoic beacon you can't ignore me forever lmfao

[molten drift]

They didn't tell us if they did or didn't

[stoic beacon]

Oh, I was more curious if it was one of the "well-known" hacking tools that were used

[still light]

Not even big...

The hackzorz group known as Anonymous.

[molten drift]

Not sure

[ashen zodiac]

@stoic beacon this really shows who you are as a person. you didn't substantiate any of your claims with proof, and when you're asked for something you have no answer for you just ignore. you can win any argument if you do it like that

[stoic beacon]

That's good that the services are getting set back up...ransomware attacks are brutal

I think attacks of theft are technically more damaging to the company, but ransomware is certainly more inconvenient

[dusty rune]

imagine how big the one on gigabyte is

[molten drift]

The brutal part is I have to enter in manually a case for every call I've taken since 4/17 I'm up to 5/8 and do all that while still taking calls.

[still light]

Use a computer to type it up or hand write?

[stoic beacon]

After seeing LTT's videos on the ducky and the cable, I'm trying to spread cybersecurity tips to more people as I run into them. It used to be so much easier because as long as they weren't fairly gullible (or doing something illegal), the odds of them clicking on a fake link were pretty low, and that was the main way I saw people getting viruses. I see people pick up flash drives and cables off the ground or at work ALL the time and use them.

Not really sure how to stop that

[molten drift]

Computer....

[still light]

I was gonna say, I feel really bad for you haha.

[molten drift]

But it's about 200 medical insurance calls to document and input rabbit

[still light]

[molten drift]

All the fun times.

[still light]

My friend does medical insurance stuff and talks about how mind numbing it can be.

[stoic beacon]

And insurance stuff can't really be skipped through GPT....

[still light]

Yet

[crude jasper]

its not gonna be reliable to do so for a long time

using GPT to cheat or skip shit is dumb

[stoic beacon]

Forget about reliability, the liability of handling that information is huge

[crude jasper]

a lawyer used GPT to cite cases and it fabricated all the cases

[stoic beacon]

No it's not. I have saved probably....at least 400 hours so far at work since the month of March by using it

[crude jasper]

doing what?

[stoic beacon]

Programming, editing and publishing documentation, etc.

[crude jasper]

programming you take other peoples code most of the time anyways

[stoic beacon]

I finished the documentation database updates in 3 hours this year, and it took me about 280 hours last year, which net me a nice raise, so GPT isn't worthless.

[stoic beacon]

No, not in private companies you don't.

[crude jasper]

GPT is doing that

it doesn't have the capability to make reliable code by itself

[stoic beacon]

It does if you feed it what you want and your libraries. We run it locally, and it generates colossal amounts of code in seconds

And the more we use it, the more complicated stuff it can make. We also learn how to talk to it better, which is a large part of it.

[still light]

This part is the big deal

[stoic beacon]

Yup

[gilded forge]

I imagine it's the same mentality as "well it free for the taking, why not?" anyone not in the tech sphere wouldn't even know that USBs and cakes are capable of spreading malware, viruses, ransomware, and actual Semtex/RDX

[molten drift]

My goal for my shift today is to make it through at least the cases I have from 5/12 and before...

So far that's 1 call back and just a bunch of editing/notating

[still light]

I don't envy that. At all. I might have to work in the heat throughout the day. But actually working on/with a computer would drive me to madness.

[stoic beacon]

At least you have plenty of time left

Well, I guess that's assuming west coast and traditional operating hours....

[molten drift]

I'm east coast and I have 5.5 hours left of my work week.

But they aren't expecting us to get it all done today. I just hate having things hung over me to do.

[still light]

Gurl don't let that anxiety get to you. You got this!

[molten drift]

I'm past that already I am a constant ball of anxiety and rage and carbs and cheese.

Plus I couldn't fall asleep last night

[still light]

Excluding the rage, sounds identical to my wife. Lmfao

[gilded forge]

damn bro

[still light]

Y u no sleep

[molten drift]

I'm running on about 4 hours of sleep.

[molten drift]

My brain didn't want to shut off between when I laid down for bed at 10:30 till when I fell asleep around 2:30am.

[still light]

I feel that.

[molten drift]

And then I got up around 6:15

Paid my bills. Bought and beat a game. Ordered door dash ate and then started my work day.

[still light]

Wtf game you buy and beat before work? O.o

[stoic beacon]

Elden Ring

[molten drift]

We love katamari reroll royal reverie special edition.

Theirs some colons in that title.

[still light]

I'm not.gonna pretend to know what that is or what it's about. But was it worth it? Haha

[molten drift]

I love the katamari games

[still light]

What are they

[molten drift]

Here's the trailer..https://youtu.be/RTnwYVhh09Q

[gilded forge]

I love those games. I played damacy reroll but I haven't played we love since ps2

[molten drift]

It just came out about 14 hours ago

I got over 50% of the achievements in 5 hours.

Which put me over 100k gamerscore

[still light]

Those games are definitely games.

[gilded forge]

they're kinda arcadey, so not entirely for everyine

[still light]

I love arcade games. Just not that kind haha. Hell one of my coworkers has like over 1k hours in the blooms tower defense 6 game...

[winged yarrow]

I just got asked if I would be willing to develop a game for the Atari Jaguar console

[gilded forge]

that's insane

[winged yarrow]

Hmm C and Assembly you say

[still light]

How could you refuse

[night roost]

Someone purged the chat

[abstract crest]

bruh

[sage quiver]

This server is not the place for discussing drama, nor a place where harassment of any kind is tolerated. With that, back to tech discussion.

[stray apex]

Discord mobile is such a great application

[graceful burrow]

Jawa do you do any photography

[full fossil]

Mods came in clutch.

[stray apex]

It also just straight up crashed when a server used the built in filter

[neon mesa]

i missed another public chat degeneracy did i

[stray apex]

And apparently the app wasn't updated to handle the dialog

[sage quiver]

Rarely. Definitely not professionally or even in a prosumer capacity.

[ashen zodiac]

is that android? it's kinda slow on android for me too

[stray apex]

I think it's just bad in general

[graceful burrow]

Can I see

[sage quiver]

Uhhhh

[night roost]

U can make discord mobile lag just with emotes

[graceful burrow]

Don't do it

[night roost]

Im not doing it just saying its bad

[jade sorrel]

Fun Fact: One moment is 90 seconds.

[stray apex]

Untrue
One moment is whatever I want it to be

[full fossil]

They weren't saying you should, they're just saying you could.

[night roost]

[neon mesa]

would depend on the phone
a shitty phone can easily crash under normal usage

[night roost]

Well i have a realme gt 2

[neon mesa]

an S23 would probably survive emoji spams

[night roost]

Thats a good phone and it still lags

[ashen zodiac]

i've got an Oppo A72, i think it would manage

[night roost]

I have the realme gt 2 pro with 1 million antutu points and it still lags when siren emoji is spammed

Atleast doesnt crash

[ashen zodiac]

can i just derail this for a bit? i have a triple monitor setup for the first time in a few years, holy shit did i miss it

[heavy dust]

never trust a person who doesn’t get tapers

[night roost]

I have a laptop+monitor

12yo laptop

[stoic beacon]

I still haven't run into issues with the mobile app....yet

[night roost]

Lucky

[stoic beacon]

But it seems pretty inconsistent for everyone on here. But then again, everyone on this server has way more tech issues than the average person I know, so there's that

[night roost]

Bro mine started crashing sometimes when i long press on the message

[ashen zodiac]

i have a triple display setup and my laptop just sitting on my other desk (i have 2 desks arranged in an L shape)

[dapper hatch]

Please tell me I'm not the only one with mismatched sizes and brands.... lol

[night roost]

A modded mobile client solves the crashes tho

[stoic beacon]

I have two Asus, but they're different sizes. Used to have a Philips mixed in with that, but I gave that to my wife
