also america STILL has houses with lead paint in them that affects children

[night linden]

there was some guy though who caused like thousands of people to get lead poisoning and the effects are still in us today, YES YES THAT'S THE ONE

yes that's the one, petrol, or gas for me and my fellow americans

[manic torrent]

• tens of millions

[night linden]

it was a car guy!

[sand moth]

wasn't that guy such a bad inventor that he ended up killing himself on his own bad invention?

[fossil frost]

hes personally responsible for killing more people than any other person in history

[night linden]

all I know, is you can blame part of your stupidity on him

even today his actions have effect on the current generation

[manic torrent]

today we're full of microplastics

[night linden]

he honestly was one of the most powerful supervillans ever

[fossil frost]

he got polio and used a bunch of ropes to help him get in and out of bed, and accidentally hung himself with them

[sand moth]

yeah that's the asshole. lmao

[night linden]

he legally decreased the intelligence of the most powerful species on a whole entire planet, and killed millions

[still light]

Now that's a sequence of events

[manic torrent]

but the complaints about boomers more or less track identically with lead poisoning symptoms

[night linden]

like if that's not impressive, and he's not the world's most powerful supervillain, I don't know who is

on top of that, intelligence is our most powerful trait

that's like being able to make the flash slower

[fossil frost]

hes more like homer simpson going around fixing stuff, but everything he fixes catches fire

he TRIED to do good, but accidentally did terrible terrible things

Just somehow raise the price of bitcoin then once the miners come back sell for mega profit

[whole patio]

im still in shock

[manic torrent]

break into shop, steal crowbar, return other crowbar next day = free crowbar

Just don’t touch the 3060TIs pcb

[whole patio]

yk what still confuses me abt the people who sell stuff they dont know their value of

[fossil frost]

its either stolen, or somebody doesnt know what they have, or they just dont care

If performance is similar enough you could swap it in and save a bunch of power that way (and energy bills in the future)

[full fossil]

As someone who's only ever touched an Ipad and used it till update support dried out I decided that it may be interesting to see how much it would cost me to switch eco-systems, so here's the list:

Phone, now, this was a pretty easy option. I don't need the computing or the cameras of the Iphone 14 Pro so I decided that a last gen iphone 13 would do. It costs, £749.

Audio, I was debating between the non-pro and the pro Airpods but decided on the pro's because I prefer silicon tips. It costs, £249

Watch, I do alot of cycling so I wanted to be able to track my health and along with that my sleep. I decided on the SE as the £150 price jump for the series 8 dosnt seem worth it for the features I need. It costs £299 with a 44mm screen.

Tablet, I needed something for media consumption so I decided on the Ipad 10th gen with 256gb of storage. 64gb of storage is laughably low, I don't understand why that's even an option. It costs, £679

Computer, I don't need something with much power, I am a student though so I do need something and I decided on the new 15" Macbook Air as it has an ok price for the base model. It costs, £1399

The total cost of this is £3375 without accounting for cases and plugs. I have to admit I thought it was gonna be alot higher.

What do yall think?

Just another thought experiment in my lonely life, not like I can afford these things anyway lol

But in all seriousness, what do yall think?

[knotty vine]

Depends on what you do, maybe base MacBook won't be enough if you want to edit 4K videos and do heavy editing or compile a big project with millions of rows of code.

the FPS is limited in game - just by the game 😄

and it SHOULD be limited in the menu.

oh ok

2 ram kits

[long briar]

Yes I was about to say because slow mode, choose which one you want. Teamgroup is actually more reliable than lpx nowadays, but if you want rgb the rgb kit is actually somehow the cheapest?

either way they all perform similarly, but lpx is known to be very low bin and sometimes can't hit its rated xmp speeds, vengeance rgb is just lpx with a nicer heatspreader

and you'd want some case fans as iirc h5 flow only comes with 2

C12c are very cheap for decent fans

[dusty rune]

they r trash

[long briar]

Wait I just realized he might use cuda accel due to graphics work

[long briar]

which are trash?

Stock fans? They're okay

[dusty rune]

ehh

[long briar]

nzxt flat fans lmao

either way c12c are pretty known for being decent fans for really cheap

[oak kindle]

lol??? you just downgraded the cpu and added some fans

oh and mixed the ram for some reason

[long briar]

you didn't read what I said

5700x performs the same as 5800x while being cheaper, the ram kit is aesthetics vs reliability because corsair ram is really low bin

He chooses one of those kits

I have a feeling he'd benefit from 3060ti because cuda

But since I don't know what software he's using I didn't change it

[long briar]

his request was make it cheaper for the same performance

more reliable ram exists for same price, rgb is somehow cheaper?

5700x is a lower bin 5800x but otherwise performs identically as a 8c16t

[oak kindle]

LOL

[still light]

[rigid gate]

guys can i ask a question

[slate tulip]

TL;DR: Intel CPUs run gooder

[long briar]

Not much

[still light]

Lmfao

For my specific use cases. It's never been an issue running AMD.

[long briar]

For mine: I don't care

[slate tulip]

in general - Intel is often the better choice if you want more single-core performance, while AMD has been excelling multi-core uses

[rigid gate]

i am using WSL2 to dev i want switch to arch linux WSL2 is it a great ''system''?

[slate tulip]

but the difference can often be negligable these days

[still light]

For gaming, AMD has always been the best option for me.

[gilded quest]

intel cpu platform has been more stable in my experience

[rigid gate]

i dont think so

[gilded quest]

intel gpu, on the other hand......

[slate tulip]

for gaming, CPU performance often isn't the bottleneck, so the cheapest CPU that gets you into a certain hardware bracket is usually the best bet

[still light]

For me it has been. Usually because of cost.

[rigid gate]

i had bad experiencies using amd

[still light]

AMD cpus have always been the more budget option, in my case.

[rigid gate]

i would like to buy an amd GPU a

[still light]

Gorian when is intel dropping a gaming specific cpu?

[slate tulip]

depends on what GPU, and for what use. For transcoding, Quicksync is an absolute beast, and a market leader atm, particularly when AMD GPU support is bad, I.E. in Plex

[long briar]

Quicksync is best when speed is concerned

[rigid gate]

but as for the CPU, I prefer Intel

I'm using rx 6800 and love it.

[slate tulip]

by that measure, Canada is south of Canada

you know, I love intel and AMD so much, that I decided to buy both an amd cpu, and an intel motherboard, sure they may not fit, but at least now the cpu and intel motherboard can enage in pin to pin contact!

Heck yeah. Just buy some more Intel procs. Smush them together, Make an Intel sandwich. Buy more Intel. raise my stock prices, bathe in Intel CPUs. You deserve it

[gilded quest]

can't wait for intel gpus to be fabbed on intel fabs

[late rivet]

cleared cmos aswell and windows isnt booting

[gilded quest]

unless the corporate bean counters axe arc before then

[slate tulip]

I hope not. The market needs competition.

[long briar]

Nvidia may be using Intel fab sometime soon for some of their products...

[gilded quest]

I hope not too. But i know that investors too often focus on minimizing short term losses instead of investing in long term projects

[dusk chasm]

does linus ever chat here? (dumb question i know)

guys, i need some advice please

i need some money right now (its urgent) for a car, and i was thinking to sell something. i have a pc with 6700xt and a ps5

was thinking to sell the ps5 since i only lose ps exclusived which will come to pc, do you think its wise?

i dont think selling the pc is viable

[fossil frost]

you will be able to sell a ps5 much easier and quicker than you could sell a gaming pc

[still light]

Sell the ps5 fornaure

[full fossil]

yeah i can sell it for almost 500 since i have some games

[inland sleet]

Does anyone know why my cpu clock speed is going for 800 mhz then jumping to 4500 mhz and keeps repeating this process when sat on my Home Screen with no applications open

[gilded forge]

then again, I live in a rural middle of fuck nowhere town where the only isp that delivers thru here is a local company

[still light]

Archives is slow for anyone.

[fallen onyx]

@still light yeah its slow also check out tech chat I posted it for you

[still light]

I seent it. Looks good man!

[inland sleet]

Wht u mean ?

[tardy terrace]

processor power management, if the os doesn't see anything important to schedule it tells the cpu to go idle until the os has something for it

you can change this behavior under power plans in the control panel

[inland sleet]

So it’s normal that it’s jumping this much in clock speed every second when no applications are open ?

[tardy terrace]

yes, because there's not much for the cpu to do

[inland sleet]

Along with this is it normal that my hdd is sat at 100% usage when idle as well

[fossil frost]

no

[tardy terrace]

Is task manager showing any processes that are consuming disk time?

[inland sleet]

Never mind I read it wrong it’s active time it’s only on 33% usage

steam is the only one with enough features to be decent. Origin, Ubisoft's whatever the fuck, Epic, the GOG one that lacks a lot of features and is also buggy, that one Rockstar one that basically no one uses..etc.

That’s okay. Preferences are great

Yeah! Adult humanification is where it’s at!

something that really annoys me, medicine for children is designed to taste nice, so children actually want to have it... but adult medicine taste like chalk and hate... especially these antibiotics for this stupid throat infection... they taste fucking horrible

Also she’s in the live action ninja turtles but what brought her up was she’s in the new Diablo game

no i disagree def 100% ur fault

[indigo plume]

What's with this new discord change

Getting rid of the old user name system

[fossil frost]

no idea, ask discord

[manic escarp]

There crying saying that oh with # theres so many janes with # so with the new change there will only be one jane and use the display name or fuck off long story short

Something like that

[fossil frost]

in short, they fucked up early on, and now they are large, its a problem

[manic escarp]

No not really they dont need to do this at all

[long briar]

it's that you couldn't type in a lot of usernames

now you can keep your username as a display name, but to add people is much simpler as it must be alphanumeric

I don't see why y'all complaining abt this

[manic escarp]

Well they think its simpler

[long briar]

it is

[tepid jasper]

because new = bad

[manic escarp]

The display name idea is fine its the #s

[tepid jasper]

therefore must complain

[long briar]

it is not.

[manic escarp]

But it is :heh:

[long briar]

It's when your username is XˣXslαy3r6969ツXˣX and nobody can type it out

[manic escarp]

Anyway they dont care about us so no matter what we say it gon a happen

[long briar]

there's 3 characters in this username that you can't type out on a standard english keyboard.

[tranquil sky]

can anyone help me with some python troubles

[manic escarp]

U can still do that with normal names

[long briar]

then what's the difference between nexgen#3304 vs nexgen3304

[peak phoenix]

That's gonna be a problem unless you ban unicode

[manic escarp]

There can be one of the right one and alot of the left one

[long briar]

which is what the new username system does.

[manic escarp]

Allso we gonna be getting name black markets

Cuz names are going to be one of a kind

[long briar]

there can only be one of the left one, if I specifically wanted 3304 as my tag

[slate tulip]

Because people’s names are their identities and this limits The makes they can use

[long briar]

the display name can be anything

[stray apex]

ah yes
my discord name
an integral part of my identity

[long briar]

you can go wild with display name, nobody is stopping you

[manic escarp]

Again One of a kind names basicaly

[slate tulip]

But not the account name

[long briar]

it IS the account name

[fossil frost]

email addresses are one of a kind, which is used as your account name on many platforms

[manic escarp]

Nope

[long briar]

So tell me, what's my account name right now

[manic escarp]

nexgen#3304

[long briar]

is that what you see when texting

or when you specifically enter my profile

[near nymph]

Check out me username

[manic escarp]

Account name is not = display name

[long briar]

my account name is nexgen

[stray apex]

your account name already has a randomass discrimanator, it's literally just worse

[summer folio]

nextgen

[slate tulip]

But if someone takes it before you, it won’t be

[manic escarp]

Thats your display name account name with #

[stray apex]

if you really love discrimination, you can just manually type the numbers back in

[long briar]

then I can add whatever number I want

[tardy terrace]

the front-facing name if you set a nick is a display name, the name & number is your username.

[long briar]

hell I can even keep nexgen3304 if I wanted to

[tardy terrace]

with the new system, it's now display name, profile name

[manic escarp]

Some people will buy that because the numbers look dumb to them

[slate tulip]

You can. I abhor numbers in my username.

Never use them if i can help it

[gilded forge]

if they allow psecial characters, can't you keep your username by just adding the pound?

[fossil frost]

seriously, you are arguing about a change to your name on discord and whether or not you agree with it.... it doesnt fucking matter, get a fucking grip, the change is happening whether you like it or not, just move on

[manic escarp]

Basicaly

[summer folio]

same rempuh = r3mpuh
leetspeak

[tardy terrace]

we have bigger shit to worry about like the bullshit w/ twitch

[slate tulip]

No. All lowercase, a-z, underscore, and period

[long briar]

I'm kinda expecting certain characters to be allowed in the future, like _ and .

Oh they're already allowed? well there's that

[gilded forge]

now you can't multistream at all.

[slate tulip]

What is twitch doing?

[long briar]

nexgen_3304.

[summer folio]

no åäö?

[tepid jasper]

no diacritics for u

[fossil frost]

fucking the creators over again

[long briar]

because LTT is a for profit company, they're legally not allowed to stream to twitch while streaming to yt and floatplane

[slate tulip]

Not a fan of that either. I’m “Gorian” not “G0rian” or “Gorian7” - that’s someone else

[slate tulip]

Nope

[slate tulip]

Sounds dumb

[vapid zephyr]

That's been that way since almost Twitch existed

[slate tulip]

I don’t use twitch, so I’ve no clue

[long briar]

I mean hell do I care, my username on my personal account is unique yet is absolutely distringuishably me

[slate tulip]

Watching streamers never appealed to me

[summer folio]

60r14N

[vapid zephyr]

People have been multistreaming on Twitch and YouTube at the same time, so Twitch shut it down

[gilded forge]

no one is.

[long briar]

there's exceptions

[sage quiver]

It was added to the partner/affiliate terms years ago (and now the overall ToS), but LMG has a grandfathered contract with no clause about multistreaming.

[long briar]

so some people are

[slate tulip]

I don’t know why you care i was just explaining why some people care, which iirc, was the original question

[gilded forge]

LCS, HCS, Apple, Google..yes, there are exceptions.

[vapid zephyr]

Ic

[fossil frost]

yes, creators that make twtich most of their money

[long briar]

again, literally nobody will see it except when adding you

[summer folio]

lame, rules should be the same for everyone.

[tardy terrace]

[slate tulip]

That’s not true, it’s literally right there when you click on someone’s profile

[long briar]

and why would you click on someone's profile?

also it's the small text, the largest text is the display name

so it still makes no difference

[sage quiver]

Display names are an unnecessary complication, especially when it comes to moderation.

[slate tulip]

Why wouldn’t you? To see what roles they have, if you know them from another server (since account names are largely static while they may have a per-server nickname), to read their bio, etc

Lots of reasons

[tardy terrace]

To read their profile, some people put useful information in there to help start a conversation

[sage quiver]

A user can have 3 completely different "names" I now have to keep track of

Usernames, display names and nicknames

[tardy terrace]

dw jawa im easy to moderate

[long briar]

if they're your friend, just set your own nickname for them

[slate tulip]

Some people change nicknames multiple times a day and the only way to keep track easily is the account name

[polar fern]

oh no

[tardy terrace]

transit, run

[sage quiver]

If they're my friend, I likely know all of the names

[slate tulip]

As a mod, I’m not friending randos

[summer folio]

you can change that easy too

[tardy terrace]

yes, this

[slate tulip]

I’m offline for a reason already

[long briar]

also don't you already only use uid?

[slate tulip]

Not anymore

[sage quiver]

Yes.

[slate tulip]

Iirc, there’s like, a 15 day cooldown?

[long briar]

which either makes it 1 to keep track of, or 4

[near nymph]

Jawa. Pls bring tequila to Vancouver from USA. Pls

[sage quiver]

Functionally, I'm not doing anything different. But as far as recognizing users... yeah

[sage quiver]

Tequila bad.

[tardy terrace]

whiskey better

[near nymph]

But... Tequila tasty. Whisky also tasty but it hits differently

[tardy terrace]

a jigger of 83-proof gets me as buzzed as a pint of 9% beer, for a fifth of the calories

[gilded forge]

the only moderation tool that combats this is locking nicknames

[sage quiver]

Which worked great for us, until display names were added :P

[tardy terrace]

plus a handle of evan is only $15 here so that's way better

[long briar]

Evian?

[tardy terrace]

Evan williams

[slate tulip]

There’s bots that help, but recognizing account names is still useful. From the perspective of “this user is spouting shit again… oh, I recognize the username “gorian” - he’s dumb, not a troll”. You’d still be smart to use a bot to lookup user’s you didn’t recognize

[summer folio]

Hey moddz, is rule 3 all pharmacy drugs so no allergy medicine discussion or only illegal ones?

[tardy terrace]

i assume decriminalized drugs are okay

[sage quiver]

Just don't discuss anything illicit

[tardy terrace]

[slate tulip]

As a rule, if it’s not globally legal, i tend to disallowed it

[tardy terrace]

weedtalk & non-abusive talk of pharmaceuticals I deem to be okay

[sage quiver]

RIP alcohol

[tardy terrace]

Stay away from my whiskey drawer

[slate tulip]

I moderate a local discord server - marijauna is legal in our state, so I allow it. On a global discord like Ubuntu or Intel which can encompass many states or even countries, not all of which has legalized it - i discourage it’s discussion

[strange elk]

I thought linus was nb for a bit, with the earrings and polish and whatnot

[idle nymph]

Happened to me once, played whit only my mouse

[strange elk]

Im still confused

[stray apex]

no, it's definitely too deliberate to be just an aesthetic choice

[tardy terrace]

Linus is.. something
Definitely not straight.

[slate tulip]

idc if someone is trans, I just think it's silly that people go "light blue, they are trans". I like light blue, I'm a cis straight dude

[strange elk]

Fair. I agree

[stray apex]

I'm pretty sure linus is married to a woman

very happily

[polar fern]

we all people - let people be themselves ❤️

[tardy terrace]

You can be a male and be married to a woman, and still not be straight

[slate tulip]

maybe there's more than the few pieces of "evidence" I saw people use then. I don't care enough to argue about it honestly

[idle nymph]

You can still do it, take mouse whit many Button, set go forward on one of them, along whit Jump and reload and boom

[frigid chasm]

what

[slate tulip]

just seems silly to me to say "they have light blue on their spider man costume, must be trans"

[stray apex]

yes, and unless linus expresses an interest in men or no longer being a man, he's straight

[idle nymph]

Then play elden Ring

[frigid chasm]

there was more to it than that

[strange elk]

The fuck does liking a color have to do with anything

[summer folio]

https://www.youtube.com/clip/Ugkx0_0plZurmeGlcVZutjXjQanC0SEOiTAT Please see attached material

[frigid chasm]

like the trans flag in her room and on her fathers jacket

[strange elk]

So what?

[polar fern]

marriage is a ceremonial/legal process. largely rooted in the process of inheritance and family lineage

[frigid chasm]

and the scene with her father being constructed to be relateable to trans people

[slate tulip]

the "evidence" I saw people post as to why Gwen was trans was "she has a light blue color theme and a flag on her wall" which seem pretty circumstantial to me

[strange elk]

Colors being assigned to gender was and always will be a dumb concept

[frigid chasm]

im married to the grind

[slate tulip]

I'm a white, cis, straight dude, and I have an LGBTQ+ flag flying next to my front door

[tardy terrace]

r/pointlesslygendered

[frigid chasm]

i hage a trdanagender gflah in my room (im tranzgenxer)

[polar fern]

so like color/gender was a marketing thing in the 1950's its literally made up

[stray apex]

truly, the hardest of evidence

[tardy terrace]

I think you are taking some of my comments a bit too serious.

[idle nymph]

People called me trans for having a BLAHAJ

[slate tulip]

that's all I'm saying. I don't care if she's trans or not, I'm not invested in it - I just think the evidence (that i've seen) is circumstantial, that's all

[summer folio]

oh, & that black Spiderman being old school german then?

[strange elk]

NICE

[slate tulip]

[bitter thunder]

Air Quality Index (Lower = Better)

[slate tulip]

I'm get anxious listening to it - FIX YOUR SHIT

[idle nymph]

How do i Check my air quality

[polar fern]

oh th windows hardware blerp sound?

[slate tulip]

yup

[polar fern]

oh man i'd punt it 😄

[slate tulip]

like a keyboard, USB drive, etc. is being connected and disconnected over and over

do-doot. do-doot!

[polar fern]

thats the first thing i turned off

[idle nymph]

One Guy in my class asked a girl out whit a joke about the do doot

[slate tulip]

he asked someone out? Living dangerously

[idle nymph]

Yeah, he came up to her, and asked if he could Insert do doot Sound on repeat here

[summer folio]

it's like 0 or 7 here
how can it be so high?

[idle nymph]

46 for me

[summer folio]

Well Sweden is like 69% just forest

[slate tulip]

I’m tired. It’s it nap time?

[terse crane]

what's the minimum I should spend on a high workload pc?
so 32gb of ram and a powerful processor
for astrophotography stacking and edting

[summer folio]

nap time

[slate tulip]

Also, my phone wanted to Swypo that to “mango Time”

[finite cloud]

wait why is that shark associated with trans?

[tardy terrace]

D- did you read the wiki

[slate tulip]

There’s a wiki?

[bitter thunder]

Canada

[tardy terrace]

..I linked a wiki.

[slate tulip]

Oh!

[finite cloud]

i am now but was hoping for someone to give a quick TLDR

oh okay i figured out why

[idle nymph]

Color of trans i dunno

[finite cloud]

i dont really see how it has similar colors unless you count the mouth

[idle nymph]

Count it

And you got everything like Pink blue White

[finite cloud]

then sure i guess it kind of does

[tardy terrace]

white, blue, pink, literally trans flag colors 🏳️‍⚧️

[slate tulip]

I mean, i like white and light blue - it doesn’t make me trans

[tardy terrace]

and ikea canada did a special thing w/the actual colors & embroidered names on them for certain people

[slate tulip]

That’s really cool though :)

[tardy terrace]

Never said it did, nor do I think anybody said that in general

[slate tulip]

it sounded like that was the implication - "it has the same colors as the trans flag, therefor it's trans" or something.
#public-chat message

[idle nymph]

I dunno if that even Was the case

[slate tulip]

me neither, been too busy to read the page, so I was merely responding to comments made in channel. If it's specifically made for transgender support or something, that's neat! Good for them, it's cute :). If it was just assumed by people to be a trans-related thing because it coincidentally had the same colors, that's all I'm calling "silly". And it's really just "that's silly". Not "that's bad or dumb". We color lots of random things with the same colors as the American Flag too. I think that's also silly

[tardy terrace]

It wasn't specifically started as a trans icon thing, it developed into that over the years of expanding internet & social media

You can own a blahaj and not be trans, it's just a stupidly adorable shark plush

the comment you linked was just ill-informed

[slate tulip]

and really, who doesn't want a cute plushie? I don't go out of my way to buy them, but I wouldn't say no if you offered me one

[finite cloud]

ironically the trans flag is some of my favorite colors memes aside

[slate tulip]

that's fair

[frigid chasm]

i love trans people

[calm swan]

like 2-3K

[slate tulip]

I don't have an opinion on pink, but white and light blue are among my favorites

[idle nymph]

I love my blahaj

[terse crane]

damn

[tardy terrace]

[finite cloud]

I made a neat trans flag for my watch too which I don’t use I just wanted to see if I could

[fossil frost]

ikea shark?

[tardy terrace]

aye

[idle nymph]

Mine is here

[terse crane]

by powerful I meant something like the ryzen 7 5800x
it'd be way more powerful than my chromebook

i3
2 cores

[slate tulip]

I recommend Intel 😛

[tardy terrace]

also featuring a childhood tomcat plush & this cute guy- https://toys.teeturtle.com/products/reversible-cat-plushie?variant=602446888969

[idle nymph]

Cute

[terse crane]

they're costlier tho

[idle nymph]

How come?

[slate tulip]

because my stocks go up

[tardy terrace]

kek

[idle nymph]

Lmao

[tardy terrace]

You must have a small room

[idle nymph]

Not even True

[tardy terrace]

Oh what the fuck you get vaulted ceilings?

Fuck you, unfair

[idle nymph]

Trust me that kinda suck

[fossil frost]

i hate sloped ceilings, ALWAYS hit my head on mine when im up there

[idle nymph]

My bed is too small for me, but we dont know where to put a bigger one

[tardy terrace]

nahnahnah you convert the sloped area into a readin'/chill nook

[idle nymph]

And i sûre as hell aint getting rid of the desk

[fossil frost]

where you constantly smack your head into the slope

[finite cloud]

if you live in a triangle i can see space being a problem

[tardy terrace]

god I'd love to have a room like that

[idle nymph]

You dont

[calm swan]

for editing get 13600KF or sum
maybe pair that with a 4070ti or 6800XT and a b650 mobo

it really depends on resolution

[finite cloud]

feel bad for whoever sits on your couch

[tardy terrace]

But I do, I have experienced sloped roofs before, wind & raid are much louder and that is what i want

[idle nymph]

They dont make Single Person bed longer than 1.80m

[tardy terrace]

just get a full-size

[idle nymph]

We dont sit

[fossil frost]

where are you buying your bed from?

[finite cloud]

for the best

[idle nymph]

Thats the neat point, i cant

[idle nymph]

They just dont

[fossil frost]

i thought all beds were 1.9m long

[tardy terrace]

ahaha, no

[fossil frost]

except for king, which is when they go up to 2m

[idle nymph]

Nope

[finite cloud]

wrong chat my bad

[idle nymph]

My feet hang off the size of the bed

[fossil frost]

i have my feet up right now on my super king 😄

[terse crane]

by editing I meant like stacking

[idle nymph]

I cant sleep well and i hâte it

[finite cloud]

Super king? that exists?

[calm swan]

tbh i have no clue what that means, send me a video

[tardy terrace]

US sizes

[fossil frost]

yep, i own one 😄

[tardy terrace]

Aaand EU

[terse crane]

https://youtu.be/zpbSSIlZ-4E

[tardy terrace]

it is very dumb

[idle nymph]

Anyone can help me find some where in my room where i could put a bed?

[finite cloud]

i have no place to put one but i wanna sleep in one now

[tardy terrace]

..replace your current bed?

[calm swan]

oh i see photoshop

[tardy terrace]

I want an alaskan king because that'd cover almost my entire fk'n floor

[terse crane]

and dss

[fossil frost]

i went from a double, to super king, skipped king.. and... first night i slept in it, it felt like you could get a 3rd person between me and my wife (now ex-wife)... but now... i couldnt ever go back down to a double, just cant do it, i fill a double on my own now 😄

[idle nymph]

Cant, no room for double bed and i said previously why i cant take Single bed

[tardy terrace]

An entire room dedicated to sleep, no flooring, just mattress

[terse crane]

deep sky stacker
so basically for ap(astrophotography) you take lots of pics and u use software to stack them

[fossil frost]

i plan on using DSS this weekend after ive spent the night with my automated tripod up in the mountains 😄

[tardy terrace]

are you able to give me the LxW of your room space, and the rough floor area that you have for bedspace?
I can try & find you something
Country might help a bit too

[idle nymph]

What

[tardy terrace]

length & width of your room

[idle nymph]

Nope nope and France

[idle nymph]

Nope sorry mate

[tardy terrace]

kk, no worries

[fossil frost]

ah... you live in france... thats your problem

[tardy terrace]

WOWRUDE

[idle nymph]

Dont talk shit about France, were the only one allowed too

[slate tulip]

Le cheese

[fossil frost]

as an english man... france is one of the few places im still allowed to talk shit about... and do "the accent" while doing it too

[tardy terrace]

Does france actually have regulations in place saying that bakeries can never close to make sure there is always a source of bread?

[idle nymph]

Yes and no

[calm swan]

ok so get a really good cpu and lots of memory is what i saw online, an 8 core like the 5700x or the 12700KF (8P/4E) should do

as for photoshop 3060 or 6650XT should be more than enough, $279 for a 3060 and $239-$249 for a 6650xt

[idle nymph]

British?

[fossil frost]

british yes, but specifically... english

[terse crane]

ooohhh
thinking of getting a 10" dob used and buying a pc for gaming
then when I get an ap rig I can just do minimal upgrades to the pc (maybe ram and storage)

[terse crane]

I live in Wales
You live in Wales?

[idle nymph]

Britain aint better than France ngl

[fossil frost]

i would say they are equally shit places to live right now, but, the uk slightly edges out france, because the uk isnt full of french people

[tardy terrace]

holy shit lmao

[idle nymph]

Except they full of british, so it aint better

[fossil frost]

no, but i can SEE wales from my window right now (im just that high up, and not far away from wales)

[idle nymph]

Ngl imma be réal fuck the british

[terse crane]

this a good idea?

[idle nymph]

I dont have a reason to hate yall i just dont like them

[fossil frost]

france is ruined by french people

[terse crane]

damn

[idle nymph]

Exactly

We know it, and we face it, but the british refuse to admit that they also suck ass

[fossil frost]

i have a DSLR i got from ebay with a 100mm lense, i bought an amazon tripod, and built a star tracking mount from some stepper motors and 3D printed parts that i put together in fusion 360

[terse crane]

is that a good idea for me?

[fossil frost]

people who have their eyes open, can see how shit it is... but... the racists (nationalists) cannot see it because they live their life with blinkers on and will never see it

[fossil frost]

tbh, any gaming pc should be powerful enough to run DSS very well

[idle nymph]

Exactly, vive la France

[fossil frost]

so yeah, your idea should be fine

[terse crane]

at least i5 tho right?

[fossil frost]

yeah, you need cores

[terse crane]

and I want it to not take ages so...

maybe ryzen 7 is good

[calm swan]

grab a 5700x

[calm swan]

LMFAOOO

[fossil frost]

[idle nymph]

Lmao

[fossil frost]

11yo wanted me to add all the jurassic park/world movies, and to make sure he was signed into the vpn, so he can log into bbc iplayer on saturday to watch the champions league final 😄

[gilded forge]
