2166mb/s or 1818mb/s ig (not sure if it's accurate but that's what I found...)

But are you really gonna compare evo970 with sn570 bruh

[vapid smelt]

If they Cost The Same the 970

[woeful nexus]

The SN570 doesn't have DRAM, right?

DRAM cache*

[lament gust]

Hmm

[leaden cipher]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/Th9z8r
W or L parts?

[woeful nexus]

The 970 EVO Plus has 2 gigs of DRAM Cache on the other hand

I've got a 970 evo plus myself, would definitely recommend

[leaden cipher]

me too

[finite cloud]

You can get a 970 plus 1TB for around $100 on a Amazon currently which is nice

[dawn gazelle]

w except for the gpu

wait nvm its good

[finite cloud]

Sorry 2 TB

The 1TB is $60

[cerulean wren]

[woeful nexus]

What's up with so many new SSDs shipping without DRAM, is the whole "NAND these days has gotten better" thing really true?

[vapid smelt]

L

[finite cloud]

Makes it cheaper I guess?

[lament gust]

So apparently one guy saying this

The 970 Evo+ is off any list because they started using the newer Elpis controller which doesn't pair well with the older nand on the 970 Evo+

[leaden cipher]

why

[pliant karma]

ah I forgot intel sold off their optane division to solidigm which is a sub division of Sk Hynix

[woeful nexus]

Yeah I've heard the same, but I don't believe it has been substantiated well?

[regal forum]

Does 'BUY 2 GET 50% OFF 1 ITEM' mean i have to buy 2 then 3rd is 50% off, or buy 1 and the 2nd is 50% off?

aka do i need to buy 2 or 3 items to use this offer

[lament gust]

[woeful nexus]

Did optane's use case as a low latency thing ever kick off?

[pliant karma]

I think in the enterprise but consumer market not much

I bough a 2tb Intel 670P for 80$ since microcenter is trying to clear those out asap lol

actually bought 2 when I had the chance

[woeful nexus]

Interesting, and yet Intel sold it off? Isn't the enterprise kind of a cash cow

[pliant karma]

oh intel optane has been sold off a while back

[lament gust]

theres 4 people elsewhere who are recommending against the 970

[pliant karma]

As far as I know both of my 670Ps are covered by Solidigm

since they've taken over for the warranty

[low rain]

[vapid smelt]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/m44Wnt because if you buy cheaper and better components like the aio and ram you can get a 4080

[woeful nexus]

Is 670p 3D xpoint nand?

Thought it's just generic QLC stuff

[pliant karma]

tlc nand

[woeful nexus]

Gotcha

Also, who's excited for MLC nand? Can't wait for my SSD to die after filling it up once /s

[hearty spear]

MLC is OG Tech and pretty awesome, what you talkin' bout?

[pliant karma]

but speed wise what I have on mines but that is good enough since I already am using 2 other nvmes in my system...I have room for one more which I may just fill up

[hearty spear]

NAND Flash:
SLC = Single Layer
MLC = Multi Layer (Two Layers)
TLC = Tri-Layer
QLC = Quad Layer

[woeful nexus]

Oh, I came across a blog using Multi Level Cell for >4 bits per cell

Thought the industry is retconning the term

[lucid echo]

💠LC = Fourth dimension layer

[woeful nexus]

Penta Layer Cell, I guess?

[hearty spear]

5 would likely be penta

of course, 6 and 7 both start with S... so it becomes an issue again

[woeful nexus]

Octa Layer Cell kinda sounds epic as a concept, it's basically a byte per cell!

Or maybe we'll start seeing manufacturers use multiple nand types on the same package

TLC NAND for newly written data, which gets transferred to QLC and above during idle time. Kind of like how pseudo-SLC works

[fossil frost]

HDLC or nothing 😄

Mods,can we set up some no money gambling,with profits/betting stuff with coins. Such example is I bet 1000 coins that the wan show is 2 hours late and such ?

[fossil frost]

im gonna hazard a guess at 100% no

[timid meadow]

Tfw youve been up 24 hours now but its friday so screw it we push it to 36 so we can watch WAN

[vapid smelt]

Nah they just sold out

[vapid smelt]

Why would a Canadian company go to that?

[timid meadow]

Its just been a long couple days and ive given up on life lol. Got home from working a 12 that i was already dreading bc drama at work. Played Destiny with a buddy for a couple hours. Got off planning on going to bed then just....didnt....then got back on d2 and here we are

6 hours of in game time after i said i was logging off

[fading ridge]

whats the difference in a b550 and x570?

i heard smth about pcie lanes but what are they even for

[vapid smelt]

SSDs and GPUs mostly

[broken folio]

It really is just PCIe lanes and USB, plus higher end features etc like 10gb networking on some boards.

[fossil frost]

10gb networking, which its self, uses up 4 pcie lanes 😄

[vital trail]

We need to bully Linus into shaving his beard off and going back to the clean look

[broken folio]

Yeah, it is more just access to more lanes in more ways rather than actually more lanes as the number on the CPU is limited regardless.

ill probably be dead by the time CSF releases a new video...

[crystal pike]

I took apart my timex to clean the inside part of the crystal (because apparently the previous owner most likely did something to it, there was like actual smoke inside or dust but its built up insanely, the watch was looking faded and weird reflections were occurring) and a lil piece of dust got stuck
Tried removing it with a sticker but it didnt move and now there is a bit of sticker residue
Someone please tell me that this is cool and makes the watch look even cooler because im a perfectionist and i cant live like this

Unless someone says its cool

[pliant karma]

sleep what's sleep this I can relate to

[timid meadow]

Nah im fine. Im eating and drinking water. Max ive gone is 3 or 4 days (super bad bout of insomnia). But today i just feel like sayin fuck it because my world is on fire rn. But ill be fine 🙃

[pliant karma]

On vacation I somehow was able to function with 3/4 hours of sleep 12am-5am at night for 3 days straight going around and coming home late with my family

of cource I was also sleep deprived the entire 2 week trip so there's that

[idle nymph]

Good luck fella

[timid meadow]

Its not that bad as long as you stay nourished and dont do it often 🤷

[pliant karma]

yep I know my limits

[crystal pike]

This is like very normal for me during school
I legit would sleep at 12 or 1 am and wake up at 5 or 6
It was a painful two weeks but it got normal after few days lol

[pliant karma]

but I was def pushing it on my vacation.

[crystal pike]

You’re describing the sleep routine of teenagers

[modern atlas]

I did this in uni and at some point I just didn't wake up to the alarm clock and slept until 11am

[pliant karma]

my online school when covid happened

[timid meadow]

I normally get roughly 8 hours a day of broken sleep. Im always up and down

[fossil frost]

12-6 or 1-6 is my sleep routine now. at 38

[crystal pike]

I did this when school was over. Felt good. Cant complain.

[dreamy rose]

i guess i sleep one more hour than you.

[pliant karma]

and also my semi sleep routine so yea I generally get 5/6 hours on the normal so enough to get me through the day. Less then 5 ah yea I need something to pick me up

[crystal pike]

Very interesting ngl

[pliant karma]

Basically how I was functioning when I had production days in the TV studio at my college. Little sleep, adrenaline, coffee just power driving that day till we finished around 2

[dreamy rose]

quite honestly i don't see my 12 to 7 sleep schedule changing much. unless i am made to work nightshifts in future

[timid meadow]

My sleep schedule always gets screwed when i pick up a new game tho. Usually not this bad but still. Been grinding destiny

[dreamy rose]

i've never actually ever looked at Destiny before ngl.

[timid meadow]

Steam summer sale made it easy to grab a decent amount of content cheap. Enough to keep me entertained for a bit

[fossil frost]

i grabbed dying light, enjoying it

[dreamy rose]

yeah. that's steam for you. insane sales that make piracy almost obsolete.

[desert grove]

Someone at the store mentioned it, I was just asking on here to see if anyone had heard/seen anything about that? I'm just looking for a fact check

[timid meadow]

Ive beaten beyond light, about to start witch queen

[timid meadow]

If you could pirate d2 i would have ages ago

[dreamy rose]

causa DRM and yada yada. yeah, that's still gonna exist forever. we can only crack it tho.

cant kill it off

man we've had some truly shitty DRM.

[timid meadow]

I dont even think its like a crackable drm thing. Mostly bungie server side

[dreamy rose]

oh yeah for sure, games as a service are gonna make a whole era of gaming unusable.

[broken folio]

Microcenter sponsors LTT, but I doubt anyone from LTT is going to go there this close to LTX, pretty much all staff will be busy with upcoming videos and/or LTX

[desert grove]

Right on, I appreciate that. I figured it sounded too good to be true

[broken folio]

I recall a few weeks back there was a merch message asking something similar about another tech show. Dan answered that all hands on deck for LTX so no-one unless they happened to be there for some reason would be going to any other shows in the run up to LTX.

[desert grove]

That makes the most sense too, with LTX at the end of the month, doesn't make sense to fly the crew out 2000+ miles away

[quiet condor]

does anyone know how to remove ghost instagram pings

[vapid smelt]

Holy water

[broken folio]

Yeah, there'd be no real return on investment unless Microcenter was paying Linus to fly out there to open the store. Which is unlikely, but given they have sponsored LTT a number of times anything is possible. But I doubt Linus would be wanting to fly over to do that unless he was getting paid a LOT.

[quiet condor]

wont work

[desert grove]

Ya one of the employees said "We have LTT Crew visit on our calendar back there, don't know who is coming" So I took that as, Oh snap I better fact check this

and I agree, if they really wanted him out, he'd probably be very expensive!

[broken folio]

especially this close to LTX. The last thing he'd want is to fly somewhere and get sick so close to LTX for instance.

[desert grove]

Yup! Too risky for sure

[broken folio]

They do have at least one employee who is resident in the US however.

[hollow viper]

where can i find the ltt-tv channel?

[fossil frost]

it was a thing, its not anymore

[hollow viper]

Oh. ok

[broken folio]

when it launched there were links being posted to discuss it in #ltt-tv which doesn't appear in the Browse Channels it seems. So perhaps its an unlisted channel of some kind?

Beverage tech tip

[gleaming harbor]

for the expensive nescafe pods that is very good thing

[vapid smelt]

Such a waste single uses small plastic cups

[modern atlas]

what am I looking at

[gleaming harbor]

wow you got a nescafe machine wyd with it
a buy some pods and throw them out
b use some reuseable pods and brew your own coffe
c sell it and buy coffee pack in your local grocery store

[polar fern]

It’s a kurig pod storage … pod

It’s not Nescafé

[fossil frost]

still single use plastic pods, wasteful as fuck

[polar fern]

Also the pods I bought are 100% recycle/compost so

Organic fair trade single source Guatemalan medium roast

[vapid smelt]

Compostable is nice

[polar fern]

Had to buy a new machine, as my girlfriend’s literally just broke Sani went to try the new brew

[vapid smelt]

Since we mostly ship our recyclables to poor countries

[vapid smelt]

No way to fix it?

[fossil frost]

and they end up in landfill in those countries, and not actually recycled

[modern atlas]

I've been looking into getting a grinder and a pour over coffee thingy, got sick of my nespresso machine

[vapid smelt]

Or they burn them poisoning the local population

[polar fern]

Yeh the lil filter inside is compostable, the top is alu foil, pod is #5 plastic bpa free

[fossil frost]

so, tiny part of it is compostable, the rest is waste that will go to landfill

[polar fern]

The tube & valve that pumps the heated water has leaks

[broken folio]

Some types you can get refillable pods for.

[vapid smelt]

Use lead solder to patch it

[polar fern]

Sigh. Ok, so, this area recycles everything unless it’s contaminated/oily/soiled

Oo smart thinking

Lift

thats a lot more work

what if i do both

[vapid smelt]

Just put books under the desk

[gilded quest]

I only have 1 ipad

[fossil frost]

you can recycle plastic bags, in the same way you can recycle paper straws... they cant be recycled as part of general recycling, and can only be recycled in a specialist way, in bulk, on their own.... seriously... paper staws... forced on us because they are recyclable, are not generally recyclable unless they are recycled in bulk without anything else as part of the process

[fallen cedar]

paper straws are leftist propaganda

[vapid smelt]

Most paper straws I use disintegrate in my drinks

[stray apex]

Paper straws are galaxy brain marketing

[fossil frost]

yep, but they cant be recycled without specialist equipment... even though they turn into mush as soon as you look at them

[fallen cedar]

anything can't be recycled without specialist equipment right?

[fossil frost]

specialised equipment as in, not the same stuff that can recycle all other paper

[gilded quest]

paper straws are stupid

[fallen cedar]

I stand by my status

[gilded quest]

make lids that don't require straws

[fallen cedar]

ill personally pile drive turtles with plastic straws if that means I can have them back

suhh dude

[vapid smelt]

They did give me an ear infection though

[fallen cedar]

[gilded quest]

the turtles?

[trim dawn]

skill issue

[vapid smelt]

Or while I was snorkeling with them the oceans gave me an ear infection

[fallen cedar]

id blame the turtles directly

[gilded quest]

did a turtle lick your ear

[fallen cedar]

we dont judge

[gilded quest]

true

[vapid smelt]

One did sneak behind me so I'm blaming the spy turtle for the ear infection

Read each ad carefully

If it's refurb or open box or used, never ever buy it from newegg

Even then I'd still usually prefer to spend a few extra dollars if the Amazon direct one is similar priced

Most of the time with newegg you will be fine, but if you have any trouble with an order you have a good chance of getting fucked

Gamers nexus even sent back a motherboard unopened and the newegg team smashed the pins on it after receiving it, and then refused the refund lol

[pine bane]

I’m not advertising I’m just amused it’s still going like it’s a glitch or something

[vapid smelt]

[pine bane]

But the gas tho. I’m still using it lol. Also free paramount+

[vital trail]

Why can't it just be my personal opinion?

[vapid smelt]

But Costco gas

[ionic abyss]

i didnt know groot could speak

[fiery cipher]

the membership kinda cancels out the savings

also americans and their silly filling their car up to full every time

[ionic abyss]

it depends how much you buy from walmart

[pine bane]

I found the infinite Walmart+ glitch. I’m winning

[vapid smelt]

Why wouldn't you fill it up completely?

[fiery cipher]

it makes the car less economical

[pine bane]

That free two day shipping is awesome tho. I ordered a box of cereal via fedex for free

The other day I ordered one candy bar

[ionic abyss]

oh the membership also includes paramount plus for 1 year

[pine bane]

A literal candy bar in a padded envelope came in the next day lol.

Testing how silly I can get away with free two day shipping

[ionic abyss]

so you get streaming free delivery and shipping delivery can cost $9 a pop without the membership

[vapid smelt]

Gas only weighs 6 pounds a gallon my car holds 16

[ionic abyss]

ummm

Nah I ordered ONE pack of Mr. beast gummies for $2.50. FedEx delivered it from two states over for free

How is this economical for Walmart?

[ionic abyss]

well my truck used to tow the camper thirdwheel trailer has 3 tanks that hold 25 35 35 gallons

[vapid smelt]

10 gallons of gas is around the weight of a 10yr boy

[ionic abyss]

so it might weigh more than the gas in your car

[vapid smelt]

Might as well lose the spare tire and car jack if you only drive with half a tank to be more economical

what budget

[fierce moth]

I'm broke atm

So I gotta hold off atm

[ionic abyss]

its only $82 for a renewed g512 with a 5 year warranty

im sure your couch has that in it

[fierce moth]

I have custom keycaps

[ionic abyss]

its the same keyboard

[fierce moth]

And since it's a non standard space bar I can't use it

[ionic abyss]

oh

[fierce moth]

Plus I don't have the money atm as I've said

[ionic abyss]

nonstandard?is it the special edtion?

[rigid tide]

should i put my sonic or shadow, steve harrington, mike wheeler, or eleven pop funko into my pc

[pliant karma]

different length

[ionic abyss]

if its the same keyboard i dont see how the spacebar wouldnt work

[pliant karma]

like how corsair had a non standard bottom row for the longest time so you could not even put your own keycaps

And there is my epomaker board with a shorter left shift key so I had to pray my keycap set had a shift key that would fit it

[ionic abyss]

i looked for fun assuming the same model keyboard would be a good replacement if cheap enough

i dont know to much about the custom keycap things

[fierce moth]

I have white key caps and since my space bar is non standard I have a black space bar

[ionic abyss]

is the base keyboard white?

[fierce moth]

No

I just like white on black

[ionic abyss]

if you get the non renewed refurb version it drops to $71

with the warranty

[fierce moth]

I am not getting another g512

[pliant karma]

'=

[ionic abyss]

ahh

[pliant karma]

opps

changing keycaps atm

[ionic abyss]

i have bought 5 steelseries apex keyboard

i dont like change!

i love the old model m sometimes

[fierce moth]

I was thinking something custom but that's expensive

[ionic abyss]

but i had to order a adapter to use it with a new pc

[pliant karma]

And this is what I meant about shift key difference between my Keychron V1 bottom and Epomaker Top

[ionic abyss]

i think i needed a at to usb keyboard adapter

[fierce moth]

Hold up I'll get a photo

[ionic abyss]

i know i had a at to ps2 keyboard

adapter for years

define custom

such as having heavier switches for certian keys such as windows key or lighter ones for often used keys

[pliant karma]

One place you can start is getting a prebuilt one like keychron and then change out the switches and keycaps to your liking

[fierce moth]

The top one is logitech special size and the bottom is standard size

[pliant karma]

or if you really want just get keychron barebones and go off after getting your own switches and keycaps

[ionic abyss]

you just need a board with replacable keys

switches*

[pliant karma]

hotswap board

[fierce moth]

Ik how to solder

[ionic abyss]

there are some cheap ones

with hotswap switches

[fierce moth]

Cheap doesn't always mean good

[vapid smelt]

You burn things

[pliant karma]

if you want to take that route too that works. Just I go with hotswap for how often I change out switches

[fierce moth]

Nah

[pliant karma]

I can solder too but I spend equal amount of time hand lubing each and every switch so hotswap takes the pain away

[ionic abyss]

well if hotswap then you need to decide if you want custom macro keys since you cant ad extra spots to the circut board after a purchase

cant add switches to a board with no extra spots for them

[fierce moth]

I mean

If it works it works

[pliant karma]

yea

[ionic abyss]

i see hotswapable boards for as low as 50usd

[pliant karma]

also add if you want your pcb to be gasket mounted or plate mounted (screwed in)

[zinc coyote]

Where is WAN guy?

[fierce moth]

im not American

a quick glance at my bio will explain that

[pliant karma]

When linus shows up but time is unknown, it just starts when it starts.

[vapid smelt]

Your loss

[fierce moth]

didn't need your witty remarks

[ionic abyss]

uk or some more obscure country

[pliant karma]

coopa being coopa as per usual

[fierce moth]

from the land down under

[pliant karma]

ah

[ionic abyss]

must not make witty remark

just poor selection in your land

i forget how spoiled we americans are when it comes to selection

[fierce moth]

well the middle of this country is literally mars but hotter

[ionic abyss]

we have 100f temps here with 90% humidity

[pliant karma]

lol when you remap the right alt and shift to access 1st-3rd layer on your 60%

[ionic abyss]

lol heat index of 112 yesterday

you got it better i am sure

[fierce moth]

but anyways new keeb needs numpad cause i actually use the thing lmao

[ionic abyss]

so switchkeys didnt have anything?

oh budget i almost forgot

[fierce moth]

mechanical is needed, i cant go back to membrane

[ionic abyss]

your amaazon doesnt show prices!

thats not a good sign

eek

[fierce moth]

lol

a couple of my keys are starting to double press

[ionic abyss]

prices on his amazon start at $130

[pliant karma]

same I never really needed one but at the same time never liked them being integrated and would rather get an external one so I just have wireless mechanical numpad to my left cause left handed

[fierce moth]

i play a lot of gta

and flying with the mouse sucks arse

[ionic abyss]

your keycaps cost for the keyboard i posted cost more than the keyboard here

[pliant karma]

my keycaps on my previous/current one I still use cost more then the switches and keyboard itself lol

[fierce moth]

eh, ill see if i can do some work for my dad

and get a cool 200 bucks

as i am still lookin for jobs

[pliant karma]

ah yea gotcha

[ionic abyss]

$200 wont give you lots of choice

[pliant karma]

only advice if you do build your keyboard might wanna avoid group buys if you do not want to wait months.

waited about 5ish months for my drop+noctua keycaps when I got them in December 2021

[ionic abyss]

holy

dell offers mechincal keyboards in the usa for $25 in au its $228

for the same keyboard!

[fierce moth]

200 bucks will give me a full size keychron

[ionic abyss]

pay some one to buy one here and pay them to ship it

it might be cheaper

[fierce moth]

i can wait

[ionic abyss]

https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/steelseries-apex-3-usb-keyboard-whisper-quiet-gaming-key-switch/apd/ab024730/pc-accessories?gacd=9684992-1104-5761040-266906002-0&dgc=ST&gad=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw5MOlBhBTEiwAAJ8e1tn485R1p7qmNdPjmkL0BuGjqyD4wNByhXY71bAJfNNJvkwUbtcJCBoCm9EQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

im tempted to try it

its $235 in the dell au store

how is it so much cheaper here

[fierce moth]

cause more people in the us?

[ionic abyss]

if it were 25-40 aud for a mechanical there id say dont wait

[fierce moth]

eh, its not a matter of life and death

[ionic abyss]

keep thinking that way you might end up with a cheap membrane

and not all membrane boards are the same

some are so bad it would be a waste of fire to burn them

not even fire deserves to be subjected to that abomination of a keyboard im thinking of!!!

[fierce moth]

my current keyboard is still working

just double presses on some keys, which i can put up with until i can get some more money

[ionic abyss]

your switches might need cleaned

[hushed goblet]

[manic torrent]

Cardboard box

[ionic abyss]

i though carboard boxes were only good for stealth

[trim dawn]

would I be able to run a 3060ti and 4060ti setup with 32gb on a 650w psu?

I'm getting a 4060ti 16gb so I need to know

[vocal cobalt]

that doesn't seem possible

if it's both its definitely not possible

[wind pulsar]

I mean it is, but they won't be able to run it in SLI

[trim dawn]

ok

[wind pulsar]

Depends on your CPU but it should be, these are fairly low wattage cards

[trim dawn]

i just want two plugged in and able to connect to monitors on 650w

[trim dawn]

Ryzen 5600x?

[wind pulsar]

How many monitors are you planning on using

[trim dawn]

3

[wind pulsar]

Then just use the 4060 Ti? That'll be able to run 3

[trim dawn]

Yeah but I wanna be able to run 1440p as well

[wind pulsar]

You will be

Running 3 monitors isn't a difficult task for even low-end cards

[trim dawn]

ok

[manic torrent]

The only problem with running more monitors is if you need more than one 'head' to use them

[trim dawn]

Thx bro

[trim dawn]

???

[manic torrent]

my main monitor is 4k120, so it takes two 'heads' to display

[wind pulsar]

I have no idea what that means either, to be fair

[manic torrent]

nvidia cards have four 'heads'

if you are displaying greater than 4k60, it takes more than one

[wind pulsar]

I still have no idea what that is supposed to mean

That unironically tells me nothing
Especially with you clearly using a different term for what it actually is

[manic torrent]

There are four internal display "outputs" which have a hard limit of what they can do.

[wind pulsar]

That does tell me more, yeah

Depends on their refreshrate then ig

[manic torrent]

and resolution, yes

[wind pulsar]

But I doubt that's gonna be an issue anyway

[wind pulsar]

They've already stated 1440p, hence that

[manic torrent]

but it also is how nvidia surround works - the 'heads' are locked together. This is why they have to all be at the same resolution and refresh rate

so with my setup at 4k120hz and 2x 1440p75hz, I can't use a fourth monitor on my 3080ti

[wind pulsar]

I would love to just buy like twelve 1080p60 monitors and just hook them together

Not on a single card obviously, I'll just get some GT1030s or something

[manic torrent]

it also means that if you're using MST with DP you don't get any more outputs than 4, because the limitation isn't the physical ports

This is also why nvidia doesn't have DP 2.0

[trim dawn]

ok

[manic torrent]

because the output functionality is more or less the same from 10 series to 40 series

This is more than you need to know or worry about of course, but it's not specified basically anywhere.

no that's counter productive

I'll just buy an nvme and a 7800x3d.

i did that

went sn850x and 5800x3d in the end

yk for next PC I'll separate my drives n stuff

[lilac yoke]

i just unplugged my harddrive lol

[gentle slate]

currently my game drive is my OS drive. And my HDD is everything else.

[lilac yoke]

its still in there

[gentle slate]

Maybe I should get a 500GB SSD for Windows, 2TB SSD for games, 5TB HDD for storage or sth

[lilac yoke]

just ripped the cables off the mobo and psu lol

[gentle slate]

I installed NetLimiter. I am now bing chilling

Honestly 256 for windows is fine even 128

[gentle slate]

u never know

[full fossil]

its going to be so weird for linus's children to grow up and see linus as this youtuber father

[manic torrent]

128 is going to be problematic once you get some updates on board and install..... anything.

[manic torrent]

that makes sense if it was 5 years ago - these days you'd just get a 4tb SSD for games and stuff, and then a 1 or whatever for OS/apps

or two 4tb

[blazing lily]

got a 1tb for the OS that I just keep clean and ready to nuke if needed

[dreamy rose]

use Tiny instead

tiny 10/11 is great

[manic torrent]

or just.... get enough storage because it's cheap as fuck

[dreamy rose]

or use Tiny editions because its free

[elfin jetty]

keks in array of shucked drives

[gentle slate]

Microsoft's remote desktop tool is.. Fucking annoying to use

[manic torrent]

or use tiny editions because you don't understand what you're giving up

[blazing lily]

you're not supposed to say that part bro

[manic torrent]

yep

[dreamy rose]

that's Microsoft software for you

[dreamy rose]

debloat doesn't go as far. i've been using Tiny 11. fits on an 18GB partition with 2 browsers just fine.

Idk if the motion sensor lights are buggin or sum but I saw the ones on the right side of our house light up

ah yes the most used operating system in the entire world is garbage why would anybody use it

if only there was a tiny way to make it a little bit worse

by the spounds of it neither of you have actually even touched Debloat before.

i tried linux last night on a pi... it didnt recognise an SSD and I had to open up some hellscape forums to type some shit in a console to get a drive to run at full speed

i uninstalled and promptly returned the pi to amazon

[gentle slate]

like I had a linux install setup nicely. Was working pretty good and I was enjoying customizing it.. Then I wanted to play league. Cue 4 hours of troubleshooting wine since League had a small patch.

Linux can be successful

Look at ChromeOS or SteamOS

[blazing lily]

linux could've been successful for the last like 20 years but there's a reason why it isn't

[stray apex]

It's the only real base OS a large organization can use to build their own custom OS

you're in for a BAD time whenever any piece of software opens a save menu that looks like this

Linux has been a good experience for me gaming wise.... But then again I mostly play single player games so there's that

[gentle slate]

I was gonna install linux on my laptop, but a game I enjoy playing on it recently fixed the connectivity issues on wifi. And that game will absolutely never run on Linux

actually anybody up to the challenge of getting IE 10 or whatever version it was to run under wine

[stray apex]

What kind of cursed system

Runs ie10 through wine
Is this some weird enterprise compatability thing

[gentle slate]

no it's for an old browser game

[stray apex]

That only runs on ie10?

[gentle slate]

it needs a specific version of IE with javascript or summat. And since that isnt supported by wine, it's the only reason it doesnt run on linux.

Yes. It's Space Station 13.

[median idol]

In fact I could even go as far as to say that emulation has been performing better than it did on Windows. Though I do have mine dual booted for programs that just won't cooperate with Linux

My first impression of Linux was bad and that will probably keep me of it for life

It ain’t for me

[dreamy rose]

this is why people pick mac. its for the unintelligent and windows is stupidly bad. not as bad as mac. linux has THE BEST desktop experience you can get.

[blazing lily]

It would be nice to get off Windows but literally all my work cannot be done on Linux

[dreamy rose]

and no i'm not talking GNOME. GNOME sucks

[blazing lily]

I could hop between windows and mac no problem and I do, but Linux has no analogue for 90% of audio and video work

[manic torrent]

you don't ... send emails?

[blazing lily]

Me too I hate how it has to be an argument

Those guys are playing 5d chess at all times

linux audio has actually made huge strides - but it does require you to know linux, so yeah it's not straightforward

MacOS is Trash. its a fact. Windows in bloated and a terrible Experience, that's also a fact. KDE Plasma? Windows without the bullshit! magnificent!

oh, it depends what you're doing of course, but yeah

he barely uses a computer. it's got more in common with an abacus

[blazing lily]

This is what you look like rn and part of the reason why people don’t want to go anywhere near Linux

[dreamy rose]

i've used Macs before, everyone has. and everyone apart from the Apple fanboys agreed that MacOS is Trash. i've shown people Ubuntu side by side, everyone liked Ubuntu more.

[manic torrent]

everyone agreed?

[blazing lily]

I am not an Apple fanboy but I like macOS and I like windows

[manic torrent]

I think your polling is faulty.

[dreamy rose]

Everyone.

[blazing lily]

I like Mac for live event tech and I like windows because it’s easy to upgrade

[onyx lake]

In what manner have you used one, not everyone has used a Mac computer.
Can you actually formulate something useful instead of saying it sucks as a fact

[blazing lily]

Mac has quirks that are not good, but so does windows and so does Linux

[manic torrent]

I guess I am a mac fanboy? I had a mac for years, I use my wifes often enough, I use windows and linux every day

[blazing lily]

You can’t just call people stupid because of what OS they use lmao

[dreamy rose]

you get bad ISOs of linux more than any other. literally only due to the distribution system of Linux.

[blazing lily]

Ok I plugged my SSD into a Linux (pi) yesterday and it didn’t work

[manic torrent]

what the fuck is a "bad iso"

[blazing lily]

I had to go into the terminal and write some shit to make an SSD run at full speed

That to me is not acceptable and far more egregious than anything I’ve had on windows or max

[dreamy rose]

Corrupted/ Bad image from the Downlad process. it happens.

[blazing lily]

This literally should not happen

[manic torrent]

what the fuck sort of bullshit operation are you running there

[dreamy rose]

well its a Pi

[onyx lake]

You have checksums to check if your image is correct, there's no inherit bad point for "distributing linux" that way in comparison to anything other

[pulsar hemlock]

check your distros version of a device manager to see if the USB port is being picked up

then check if the SSD is being picked up in there, look for devices without drivers

[blazing lily]

I uninstalled it and sent the pi back

[pulsar hemlock]

why

[blazing lily]

I ain’t doing that shit to get an SSD working lol

[pulsar hemlock]

you could have installed Windows for ARM

[dreamy rose]

thats what i'm saying. you can get bad images that dont match the Checksum you are supposed to get.

[blazing lily]

Got the pi for something else and it was redundant after that so I dabbled with pi OS to see if I could run it as a video ingest system

[dreamy rose]

isnt that pretty crap even for windows??

[pulsar hemlock]

sir im currently in the process of writing a full on operating system that will allow multiple micro controllers to talk to eachother and run correctly

i dont see the issue with installing a driver to make an SSD work

[pulsar hemlock]

yeah but it works

[blazing lily]

Don’t play that card bro we’re all doing tech nerd shit in this chat

[pulsar hemlock]

yeah but who buys a rpi then complains they have to make linux play friendly

its literally just a driver install

[blazing lily]

It’s the concept of it tho

Like… if THIS already doesn’t work out the box then I don’t wanna dig deeper to find out what else is not going to work

[dreamy rose]

what yo8u expect absoplutely everything to be plug and play?

the protocol is the same the operation is different so you need a driver to beable to read the sata connection through USB as a MSC

[blazing lily]

This is why Linux will not be popular

[pulsar hemlock]

linux is respoonsible for every website you've ever been on

this

[blazing lily]

I got that shit working with a quick Google and two minutes but my mum isn’t ever going to figure that out

[dreamy rose]

sure, if they dont know jack shit about computers and absolutely REFUSE to learn. the kinda people who would pay a tech shop to hit update in GeForce Experience

[pulsar hemlock]

i only dont use linux desktop because im a game programming teacher and unreal engine is slightly different on linux, my students use windows so i have to to make sure its familiar

[blazing lily]

Nah bro I just wanted my SSD to work straight away and it didn’t so I realised yep I don’t wanna go down this rabbit hole and went back to what I was doing

[pulsar hemlock]

am i still missing something

im so lost but like if you buy a raspberry pi, surely you're trying to find out how things work

[dreamy rose]

well then its just your fault. not the fault of Linux.

[pulsar hemlock]

PEBKAC

[blazing lily]

I bought the pi for a job to control a PT camera and it worked great but after the job, we didnt need the pi any more

[dreamy rose]

yeah thats true. you by a Pi if you know how shit gets done.

ok how about INSTALLING apps?

[pulsar hemlock]

i bypassed all that im just writing C++ code to turn a bunch of ESP32 micro controllers into a computer

[blazing lily]

I wanted to try use the Pi as a network footage offload as it has USB 3.0 ports and ethernet, so I quickly installed an OS during lunch break, drives didnt work at full speed and realised i didnt want to spend me evening playing tech support so i gave up and went back to what i was doing

[pulsar hemlock]

i had to write my own protocol so i didn't take up the SPI or I2C slots

in macos you cant even rightclick without first enabling it in the settings

[blazing lily]

the smart thing tho is to just use the best tool for whatever job you're doing

[dreamy rose]

thats what you do. its only if you cant find it you use Terminal.

[blazing lily]

call me back if davinci ever comes to linux and VST plugins run properly

[pulsar hemlock]

it made teaching so mf hard for me because i have students with macs who needed me to control their screen just to right click

[dreamy rose]

the bullshit around "Terminal being nessasary for operation" is a hater thing.

[pulsar hemlock]

then i was told that you can enable it, you should've heard the student when i made it work they were so happy

[dreamy rose]

not really.

[dull tapir]

but why does no one talk about hall effect problems but everyone is only praising them as a coming of god if anyone makes a post about problems it gets downvoted

[pulsar hemlock]

if you cant make MSC work in linux, try exiting out of Vim

lmfao

i can never remember it isn't it like :wq or something like that

this is why i use code or nano

i know but its not which is ridiculous, apple are just assholes

im using it for C++ development, i only use visual studio when i am doing C# because then it does all of the funky shit for me but C++ in code is alright

[onyx lake]

Davinci Resolve has a Linux build iirc, you can route probably most VSTs through CARLA

[turbid viper]

no one:
me who has never watched a single video of LTT but still joined this server for literally no reason:

[dreamy rose]

i was able to get Steam, qfceux, Dolphin, OpenMW and a whole collection of puzzles alongside the Parole media player plus discord through Discover. then maybe i had to have ONE line in the terminal to install Brave Browser. its not nessasary since distros come with Firefox

[pulsar hemlock]

C# has to be one of my favourite languages

[dreamy rose]

NEEDING to use terminal to actually use linux is a fake as fuck argument.

[pulsar hemlock]

it doesn't make me want to rip my hair out, the errors make sense meanwhile c++:cpp std::string answer; std::cout << "yes" << "no"; std::cin >> answer; std::cout << answer;

[dreamy rose]

People always jump on hate trains and never actually do their fuckin research.

[pulsar hemlock]

not confusing at all, i mean dont get me wrong i like that the namespaces are there and i will never use cpp using namespace std; but still

[dreamy rose]

or actually USE it for once

[pulsar hemlock]

see there are many sides to the train, i personally use windows but i have remote app execution setup in my wsl so i can run linux GUI apps on my windows desktop

vcserv or whatever its called

lmao especially when you're writing an operating system for an array microcontrollers

[dreamy rose]

sure, but they said its not there for GAMING. and its gotten way better now. with Anticheat being the massive Fuckup

[pulsar hemlock]

it gets very confusing

windows > for gaming

linux > for everything else

[dreamy rose]

only if you play Comp shooters.

all my Games are rated Silver+ on Proton and 20+ of my 60 or so games re even Native.

[brisk star]

Is the code for free shipping still active?

[pulsar hemlock]

it is, for the protocol i decided to begin with i started an AP on one of them, they all host a local server rest client so they can make API calls to eachother with remote execution protocols im able to make it work

so basically the graphics part for the cluster can be in the bathroom and the audio part can be in the kitchen and the USB controller can be in my bedroom and it all works much faster than i can do over GPIO

[dull tapir]

linux is better if you do IT stuff and you have complete root access if not windows is more compatible

[pulsar hemlock]

gpio can do about 500 Kbps, the Network card can do 150 Mbps

[pulsar hemlock]

linux is just great in general

[dreamy rose]

Windows is FORCED on you via buying a PC. Compatibility is only good because it is EVERYWHERE not becaue its actually a good OS.

[dull tapir]

overall it is more accessible and more polished i agree i like it for faily use but it is much more manual for people who have not used it before also for media i use windows since everything is far more compatible on it

[pulsar hemlock]

if you want linux but you want to game use WSL and setup remote GUI thingy

forgot what its called

[dull tapir]

i would say it is just mainstream and overall most compatible

[dreamy rose]

WSL is a shitty attempt to try get Linux people to use windows.

[dull tapir]

despite having many problems

[pulsar hemlock]

it's like VNC but not VNC

[manic torrent]

Everything is terrible

[dull tapir]

for work i always use linux even at home but for media always windows

[pulsar hemlock]

it suits my needs and because i have to use windows for work and i dont wanna duel boot i can run any linux GUI app and it will load with the GUI over VNC, its great

[dreamy rose]

its barely a linux Experience. but sure go crazy.

[manic torrent]

I see you are still fucking stupid

[manic torrent]

because it's not an experience.

[pulsar hemlock]

i use linux on my laptop but i have to use windows on my desktop

[slim creek]

shout out to the mod who lets me stay in here after all I did

[dreamy rose]

you cant use WSL and say you have Linux experience. you need to be booted into a Desktop. not running it ontop. none of this windows jank

[dull tapir]

if you do not do network engineering or run servers there is not really any reason to use linux over windows while it is more polished system overall and you have root access but it is more work than fun and compatibility

[manic torrent]

... because it's not an "experience".

wait... do you mean "linux experience" like... experience using linux?

because I literally have 25 fucking years of experience using linux, and I don't vomit garbage constantly like you do.

[dreamy rose]

you havent actually run the system. you are running what is essentially WINE for linux apps.

[onyx lake]

I have made a few 5 megabyte Linux distro, that is the pinnacle of Linux experience

[manic torrent]

ok, you don't know shit about fuck

[manic torrent]

absolute and total garbage.

[onyx lake]

Only virtual terminal, no networking. Peak Linux!

No proper video output, only Busybox!

[dreamy rose]

hey, i'm not the one calling WINE a Windows Emulator

[dull tapir]

wine is just optimized UI for linux users to get software

[manic torrent]

.... no shit, it's literally in the name.

[dull tapir]

idk what is wrong with that

[manic torrent]

saying WSL isn't linux is stupid. It's linux. It's running the linux kernel.

[dreamy rose]

well i've met people who beg to differ.

[manic torrent]

it's not using a compatibility layer, it's literally the fucking kernel

[dreamy rose]

it is linux, its not the linux DESKTOP

[manic torrent]

and these people. Did they have decades of professional experience?

[manic torrent]

that is not what you said. you didn't say desktop.

[cursive skiff]

Mods mods they are fighting

[dull tapir]

blaming someone for using wine is like blaming someone for using car instead of a bike

[manic torrent]

you were literally comparing wine to WSL, and saying it's similar. That's a wildly bad take.

[dreamy rose]

WINE isnt just a UI for linux users. thats Lutris. WINE RUNS the apps.

[dull tapir]

this is true just wanted to generalize it

[manic torrent]

ok, I'm going to go lobotomise myself, it would be a better use of my time.

[dreamy rose]

its functionally the same deal. you arent booting into a Desktop

[dull tapir]

just use dos

[manic torrent]

no, it isn't even CLOSE to the same.

[dull tapir]

hh

[dreamy rose]

how? please prove me wrong.

[manic torrent]

WSL is a virtual machine. wine is an ABI compatibility translator

[dreamy rose]

wheres the Desktop then?

[manic torrent]

who cares

you don't need a desktop to run wine OR WSL

[dreamy rose]

you don't that's right. but you also aren't actually getting any DESKTOP experience. thus you can never comment on Daily Driving Linux until you actually use it as a daily driver for at least a week.

[manic torrent]

I mean, I've used linux as a daily driver for years

[dreamy rose]

at minimum. and Linux? PAsses the test.

[manic torrent]

but that isn't what you said

Mr fucking groundskeeper. Those goalposts move more than a cow pat rolling down a hill

[gentle slate]

Why r we still talking about Linux vs windows 🗿

[dull tapir]

because elitists try to gatekeep

idk it is just funny

[gentle slate]

Did this all start because I asked why Microsoft remote desktop app is a pain to use

[manic torrent]

that isn't the problem here, it's that BSS is both stupid and loud

[dull tapir]

idk i just recently joined

but i would not be surprised actually

[dreamy rose]

smarter than people who think Rotten apple = good

[fierce moth]

linux and windows both has its uses and leave it at that

[dreamy rose]

90% of windows users use it as a bootloader to Chrome.

[gentle slate]

How does that matter

[fierce moth]

its cause windows is easy to grasp

[dreamy rose]

linux does that job even better, its even got one called ChromeOS too.

[fierce moth]

do you seriously expect the elderly to understand linux or chrome os

[gentle slate]

90% of Linux users use it as a bootloader to terminal

[dreamy rose]

Dogging on the Steam Deck now are we?

[dull tapir]

idk some people just refuse to let other people use and enjoy different things probably low insecurity and boasting

[manic torrent]

90% of @dreamy rose s messages are verifably stupid garbage

[dull tapir]

both have their pros and cons and this is fine

[gentle slate]

Low insecurity = high security.

You mean high insecurity.

[dreamy rose]

i only want more people using less garbage. experience gets better for everyone.

[dull tapir]

it was a joke i was trying to make but no one picked it up

[fierce moth]

and i mean easily without someone explaining everything

[crystal pike]

The sticker residue on the dial is kinda unnoticeable even under plain sunlight
Its still there and its sad but glad that its not that noticeable

[fierce moth]

mac os and windows currently suits the elderly just fine

[dreamy rose]

its why i REALLY hate Ada Lovelace.

[dull tapir]

i like windows so i can swim the seven seas

[lilac yoke]

my dad has come from windows 7 to 11 and doesn’t want to use PC’s anymore 😭

[gentle slate]

I tried getting grandpa to move on from Windows XP so I stuck Linux on his PC. Should've been identical when it comes to browsing. But it was enough for him to struggle just because the browser icon is different.

[dreamy rose]

Fuck Ada Lovelace. 1200 for a 4080? fuck that

[dull tapir]

i liked xp and 7 over 10

[lilac yoke]

the right click options being icons instead of text is pissing him off

[dreamy rose]

7 is overrated. ngl. 8.1 got no love.

just cause of 8

[dull tapir]

idk i like design of 7 the most i hear people like 8.1 but i did not like it

sure drivers and compatibility is more polished on 8.1 and 10 but i liked the design of 7

[dreamy rose]

people only like 7 cause of Nostalgia.

[lilac yoke]

Nah I like 7 I have to use it for the diagnostic software for my car

[fierce moth]

windows 7 is a workhorse

[dreamy rose]

they dont realise it was vista but released later witth new paint

[dull tapir]

idk if it is only nostalgia my nostalgia was more xp than 7 but i liked 7 due to UI far more than 10 which is too similar to 8

[dreamy rose]

8 is far closer to 7 than it is 10

[dull tapir]

xp and 7 are closer just like 8 and 10

well ofc 8 is closer to 7 but still looks more like 10 than 7

[dreamy rose]

you mean VIsta? Vista and 7 are closer than XP

[dull tapir]

vista just looks like alpha 7

[dreamy rose]

Vista is unique too i give it that.

[dull tapir]

with inferior algorithm

until they got the first patch then it got better

[dreamy rose]

however 11 is a fucking Sin. it deserves to burn in hell.

[dull tapir]

i really like aesthetic design of vista but i ran badly at launch until it got first patch

i did not enjoy anything after 7 starting with 8

i have not tried 11 yet still using 10

everything after 8 looked like a tablet

[fierce moth]

11 works just fine for what it needs to do

[dreamy rose]

8? terrible. 8.1? was good. 10n is mid but 11 sucks. call it CE ME NT cause it ways your morale down like a stone with thaqtr centered shit.

i do use Tiny 11. and i still hate 11.

[dull tapir]

i was not a fan of 8 nor 8.1 i used them for a week and went back to 7 until 10 came out

with they returned to 7 or xp design

[dreamy rose]

i run 10 on my main. though right now the fan shatterred on that laptop and now i cant use it anymore

[silk wolf]

i just had a product idea i doubt linus would make but i really want it...ltt backpack diaper bag.

there's really not stuff for us tech dads.

[dreamy rose]

its old. no surprise there. and Old =/=bad. but it also doesn't excuse being a shit product. (looking at you GEFORCE GT 540M)

[dull tapir]

there are a lot of refurbished retro setups

you just have to take care of stuff

[sick coral]

anybody got that chart of the fans

[dreamy rose]

this thing survived a lot. hats off to 2012 acer for build quality. though the fan did shit itself a bit ago. i have a backup cooler anyway just need paste.

[copper smelt]

Yeah lemme dm it to you i promise it won't be a dicc picc

[dull tapir]

jerma gets pp

dms

[sick coral]

im waiting

[fierce moth]

What the hell

[vivid sparrow]

Well, i found a discord server. Haven't thought about joining before, but watch LTT for a LOONG time already 🙂
Sometimes it makes me wishing i lived in canada

[copper smelt]

Mind yo business

[woeful nexus]

Alternative, dm me and I'll definitely send a picture of Dick

(Cheney)

[copper smelt]

Ok pause

[dreamy rose]

welcome to THE LTT discord server. where Public Chat gives you Brain Damage.

[copper smelt]

Brian dmg

[woeful nexus]

All discord general chats give you brain damage

[dreamy rose]

true

[copper smelt]

Can we leak gov docs here too

[fierce moth]

Hey not all of us gives brain damage

[woeful nexus]

NONONONO STOP

[copper smelt]

Or is that banned by @hallow flume

[dreamy rose]

go to Thugshaker for that.

[copper smelt]

Mannnnn yall are no fun

[dreamy rose]

yea banned

[silk wolf]

am i the only one who would love to have a LTT diaper bag?

[woeful nexus]

D(amage) iscord(to the brain)

[copper smelt]

You assume weve banged women.

[vivid sparrow]

ive seen worse... have been on the internet since dialup was the only option lol

[dreamy rose]

linus will have no more babies.

[copper smelt]

Insane in the brain
