Homie didn't read his own source

[graceful burrow]

It says nothing about gen 3 devices not working in gen 4 slots or vice versa

[misty scarab]

Can I shift everything down by one row in Excel?

[graceful burrow]

I'm sure there's a way

[manic edge]

then what else could be the issue, then?

[pliant karma]

hey tom lol

[jaunty compass]

Probably bios configuration

[fierce moth]

It's just that is has the expansion bay which allows me to use a sata ssd or hdd, as well it has way better ps1 emulation

As the slims removed some ps1 hardware to cut costs

[pliant karma]

yea and drag that row down

[misty scarab]

I selected everything and did shift downarrow then nothing happened

[low rain]

I got kicked out the movies but now I’m getting back in after talking to the manager

[fierce moth]

And before someone says launch games from usb, it's literally entirely pointless as it's usb 1.1 which has a max speed of 12 Mbps

[indigo plume]

not sure if I should get 32 or 27 inch monitor

gettint rid of ulta wide

[fierce moth]

Cutscenes will skip and stutter

[indigo plume]

tired of black bars in games

[pliant karma]

last minute solution click on the row you wanna move down it and paste down and delete the row above lol

[violet ermine]

any difference between having the fans pull cold air through the radiator and outside of the case and
having the fans push cold air through the radiator and outside the case?

I need to decide whether to put the fans before or after the radiator in the air flow

[past egret]

yes

[manic edge]

probably have the fans inside the case?

[mint yacht]

Depends on the fan
Usually push is better

[violet ermine]

@manic edge standard arctics P12's. Can only fit either the fans or the radiator on the inside, and the other on the outside. Since it'll be exhaust, you guys recommend fans inside, ratiator outside ?

[full fossil]

might build a £100 pc for fun. anyone else find cheaper pcs to be more interesting than the more higher end stuff?

[manic edge]

wouldn't a radiator be what you'd want intaking cold air to cool the hot water inside?

[violet ermine]

it's intaking cold air regardless. The only question is whether the cold air is pulled by the fans or pushed by the fans

[manic edge]

probably pushed

[violet ermine]

thanks. I'll see what gymnastics I can do to switch them around

[full fossil]

here's what im thinking:

dell t1700 workstation w/ i7 4770, 8gb ddr3
add extra 8gb ddr3
120gb ssd
rx 470 4gb

psu is a 365w unit which is a lil low, but i've used 470s with psus as low as 290w and theyve been fine

psu also has a 6 pin, which should be good enough

[gentle slate]

Man it's goofy how many problems come out of 3rd party AV's being overbearing

[undone inlet]

Whats an AV

[blazing orbit]

antivirus

[undone inlet]

Simple make your own AV

With avast data

It works better and free ;-;

[long briar]

windows defender is the best av unironically

[undone inlet]

True

Because its installed into the kernal ig

It checks kernal

[long briar]

And it gets priority updates thru windows updates

[undone inlet]

Yup

I will miss that in linux

[long briar]

yeaaaa

[undone inlet]

Linux and linus

Depressed linux

[long briar]

but Linux is still a small enough userbase that viruses still aren't that common

[undone inlet]

And there are hundreds of contributors

[blazing orbit]

im just watching todays vid

im suprised they kept the IOM-6 controllers

QSFP kinda sucks

The dell HB-SBB2-E601 cards work in the shelves and use 8088

[tardy flume]

hi

[indigo phoenix]

There’s also the benefit that it’s all open, adheres to some pretty high standards, and can be as locked down as the user needs it to be. Though this requires more intimate knowledge of the OS to do

[full fossil]

i might try some vr on this thing what the hell

[timid meadow]

Vr on an rx 470? Have fun with that....

[full fossil]

yeah ik its not gonna be great

but hey i managed to get a mostly smooth experience on my old gtx 970 with a somewhat worse cpu using a quest 1

i think with enough tweaking i should be able to do something

it wont be great tho

[timid meadow]

970 is a good card for low end. 970 and quest 1 was my first pc vr experience. Now its a 1070 and quest 1

[full fossil]

and the rx 470 performs similarly to the 970

if not slightly better due to actually having 4gb vram

[full fossil]

might see how the 470 + 4770 combo stacks up compared to my 5700xt + 11700f

[slate agate]

the 970, nvidias early attempt at cutting bus width. ah that 512mb going through a 32bit bus won't slow it down right? ;p

[midnight elk]

Does anyone know of decent quality pack of programmer stickers on Amazon I kinda wanna stick ones on laptop for the ones I use (C, Rust, Python, etc etc..)

[full fossil]

lel

[fierce moth]

Fucking more shorts and community posts than fucking videos

[stray apex]

those get great engagement

[rain kettle]

computr

[pliant merlin]

I think it must show you based on whether it thinks you engage a lot with shorts cause I almost never get them on my front page

[vapid smelt]

You have the reddit app

[polar fern]

Never thought I’d say a pc motherboard was nice looking. But damn

[wispy marsh]

Oh wow, the hot takes on last week's WAN show

[polar fern]

I touched it

[dark spruce]

they muted me

they can’t control my power

[pliant karma]

beautiful board

[fierce moth]

Cry

Pihole blocks the ads anyways lol

[vapid smelt]

Why do you have an expensive motherboard

[fierce moth]

Cause he can?

[vapid smelt]

But it's illegal

[fallen rover]

Are those real gold cog wheels?

[graceful burrow]

No kek

[fierce moth]

50 monies

[fallen rover]

They look nice though. Good purchase 👍

[acoustic pond]

oh your board came in, congrats

what size is that board?

[sweet jetty]

Wussup lttcord

[graceful burrow]

Nothin good

[sweet jetty]

Welp

[acoustic pond]

good talk, good talk

[sweet jetty]

Fr

[acoustic pond]

whats up man

[sweet jetty]

Just chilling, rehackintoshing my ThinkPad because I was a dumdum and formatted the drive 💀

[mighty island]

i need help

[acoustic pond]

rip, I havent heard the term hackintosh in a long time

[sweet jetty]

Wussup

[mighty island]

does anyone know how to factory reset a magic mouse

[sweet jetty]

Oh lol, it's got much better than before with opencore

[acoustic pond]

oh really, is it like before if you update a driver and hackintosh falls apart? lol

[sweet jetty]

This seems like a decent tutorial, try it
https://www.technewstoday.com/how-to-reset-magic-mouse/

[mighty island]

thanks

[acoustic pond]

https://www.technewstoday.com/how-to-reset-magic-mouse/

[sweet jetty]

Nah, lmao, it's much more stable now especially big sur

[pliant karma]

aight r/place canvas expanded if anyone wants to start the lttstore or just LTT that is totally up to coodination lol

[acoustic pond]

probably could of googled that

[graceful burrow]

I'd rather just keep writing fuck spez

[sweet jetty]

Oh wow didn't know ltt was doing a place

[acoustic pond]

nice, what thinkpad you have?

[pliant karma]

nope this is just a random idea I thought up now lol

[sweet jetty]

I helped make the XO logo

[acoustic pond]

bet ill help

[sweet jetty]

It's a t440p lmao, but I keep it for fun projects, honestly

[pliant karma]

I've been defending the damn Canadian flag still am and taking down that charater that was in the flag

[wispy marsh]

Honest question for y'all

If price was not a concern, would you get the Vision Pro?

[sweet jetty]

Oh lol

[graceful burrow]

No

[pure olive]

no, I'd get something superior

[acoustic pond]

nice! you can use it as a blunt object too if need be, thats a thick boy lol

[pure olive]

for less might I add

[sweet jetty]

😭😭 we were almost gonna ask you for help but saw how hard you we're tryna defend yourselves

[pliant karma]

a las she's gone

[acoustic pond]

from the ashes of Canada rises LTT

[sweet jetty]

Not really, it's in very early stages and I don't see myself using it yet

[pliant karma]

it took us 3 years...3 fk years

[wispy marsh]

I don't think there's anything in the market that accurately tracks all near-30 joints in both of your hands, provided you still have all of your fingers.

[sweet jetty]

FR I'm veryyy clumsy so that has fell a lotta times with no damage whatsoever

[acoustic pond]

I have a E490 thats a beast now

[pure olive]

Honestly I completely forgot about the hand tracking

[sweet jetty]

Ayyy W

[balmy valley]

Hello 🙂

[wispy marsh]

Oh, I meant anything that's consumer AR/VR

[pliant karma]

hold I have to check what placecanada has to say

[sweet jetty]

💀 it's the most immersive AR experience atm but it needs more development

[pure olive]

waiting for my parents to get home so I don't have to be around my shithead siblings

[sweet jetty]

Im proud of apple for releasing it tho

[mighty island]

doesnt work

[acoustic pond]

I don't care how good it is for that price lol

[mighty island]

it still has the same name

[acoustic pond]

iunno then, take it to a apple store if you have one locally

[mighty island]

anyone else know how to factory reset a magic mouse

[acoustic pond]

we just sent you links?

[pliant karma]

oh wait lol yea the canvas expanded huh let's see if reimu gets moved to a new spot

[mighty island]

it doesnt work

[wispy marsh]

Sigh. That's why I mentioned price.

[sweet jetty]

Man, I would've loved to have siblings, ngl

[mighty island]

asking if anyone knows any other ways

[pure olive]

It gets old quick when there's 7 of them

[pliant karma]

only child gang it is not fun but also peaceful

[sweet jetty]

To each their own, Im just excited to see the direction of this technology

[wispy marsh]

Mom's the Snow White.

[pure olive]

they're adopted

[sweet jetty]

7? Damn

[pure olive]

I broke my mother when I was born

[sweet jetty]

Also lonely

[wispy marsh]

Now you can have cheesy fantasy family talks about not being related by blood

[acoustic pond]

oh yea for sure, AR is the future no doubt but I see it more with a Google glasses updated product or it built in directly to your windshield etc

[wispy marsh]

I'd rather take AR+VR built into neurolink

[pliant karma]

yea it is what it is although at night is my peacful time to hang out with my HS friends I stil have contact with on discord. Ongoing tradition now since the pandemic lol

[wispy marsh]

There's no point in large screens

Wash the banner and have the advertisement built into your visuals

[acoustic pond]

Well there is and at the same time AR has its place and VR has its place as im sure you are aware of

[sweet jetty]

Man I'm too afraid of neurolink

[wispy marsh]

Neuralink

[sweet jetty]

What if there's a data leak 💀

[acoustic pond]

thats still a long way away and then you are getting into cyberpunk 2077 terroritory

[sweet jetty]

Damn, that's sick, I was very antisocial in hs so it was bad bad for me lmao

[acoustic pond]

I was a loner in HS and im still a loner at 35, it is what it is

[wispy marsh]

Cyberpunk had neuralink in 2027

[near nymph]

I lost contact with most people in High School

[wispy marsh]

We're not so far off

[near nymph]

Cuz I graduated at the start of the pandemic.

[pliant karma]

welp looks like people are extending the canada flag into other art pieces and streamer terrritory. We at war boys

[acoustic pond]

im not well verse in the lore but regardless neuralink in 4 years seems very unlikely and probably will be met with lots of push back from privacy groups and the like, lot of people still saying putting microchips in us is too far

[sweet jetty]

Dude the streamers suck sm

There was this Spanish (I think?) Streamer who attacked our area and our entire art was gone in under 1.5 mins

Crazy shit, saw it disappearing in front of our eyes

Thankfully we recovered it tho

[pliant karma]

https://tenor.com/view/oh-no-meme-man-gif-11000388

[wispy marsh]

That's why it's a lore.

[acoustic pond]

yes so I'm not sure why you brought that up

[sweet jetty]

Absolutely man, Elon doesn't have a good track record with data, Tesla cameras collect wayyy too much data too

[dreamy rose]

i mean if it means i can beam Chillout VR directly into my brain i'd go for it. but only if it actually worked with Linux

[sweet jetty]

I think they're gonna have a custom OS for it

[acoustic pond]

a lot of companies collect way to much data, espically google, speaking of elon you hear how Twitter is becoming X?

[dreamy rose]

no deal, i want SteamOS

[sweet jetty]

Man.

[acoustic pond]

im still on the fence of if I want a steamdeck or ROG Alley

[dreamy rose]

all i see from twitter is unessasary limitations and broken profiles for non loged in users

[sweet jetty]

My with my psp 1000:

[dreamy rose]

do you want a melted SD Card.

[acoustic pond]

my PSP 1000 is next to me right now modded lol

[dreamy rose]

me with the PS Vita 1000:

[sweet jetty]

Lmfao

[wispy marsh]

Would be a good benchmark

[sweet jetty]

I've never played with the vita

[dreamy rose]

they fucked it up bad thats why

[acoustic pond]

I find that to be a unrealistic benchmark and plus cyberpunk world is a dystopian of what you don't do

[dreamy rose]

it was a good system. they fucked up the Storage and they fucked up the game library by not making super good games for it

people didnt buy. and thats the end of the story.

[acoustic pond]

imagine you finance your neurolink and you miss a payment so a repo man rips it out of your head in the middle of the night.

isnt Sony planning on making a new portable soon?

[dreamy rose]

why finance neurolink when you can finance a pizza?

[wispy marsh]

Alright, I'm not going to discuss anything in cyberpunk outside of the level of tech.

[dreamy rose]

yada yada raytracing yada yada DLSS yada yada glitches yada yada patches

[tender urchin]

is LTT on place?

[acoustic pond]

context?

[wispy marsh]

The lore level of tech.

[dreamy rose]

r/place

[acoustic pond]

ah thank you

[dreamy rose]

and as far as i know, no. and i would like to recreate the last ones war.

[fallen rover]

R place must have been very hard to program

[dreamy rose]

program? you mean moderate? with all the "Fuck Spez" drawings i doubt they are gonna be happy with it

[manic torrent]

not... really.

[fallen rover]

No the programming and server side programming

Like how all the pixel array indices are temporally sorted with all the requests while also keeping a live preview for everyone to see

[manic torrent]

yeah that's not rocket surgery at all

[fallen rover]

I know but it still requires some pretty hefty hardware with advanced intruction sets

[manic torrent]

it... really doesn't

it's a 2d canvas of 24 colours.

I mean, it's cool, but you could build it in a day or two and run it on a potato

[pliant karma]

lol I brought up the idea too I am down just I will be defending it to hell along with another area

[fallen rover]

Yeah but everything is stored inside a pixel array on a server then sent to the client and then destructured and then you send that pixel array back after selecting a pixel and then it has to check if someone else as used that pixel as well and which one was first and then they have to put that color in depending on which person was able to click that pixel first

[manic torrent]

yeah

[fallen rover]

Also a lot of issues with how all this data is extracted and continually shown to the user

[manic torrent]

man if only we had the ability to have like... matrices of pixels

and process them quickly

also why the ever loving hell are you sending the whole array back

[fallen rover]

They do but it's why the use GPUs or processors with AVX 512 or something

[manic torrent]

protip: you're not.

[fallen rover]

It has to stay in sync

[manic torrent]

you are reqesting A change

[fallen rover]

Cause you have to save the state of the drawing when you put in your color

[manic torrent]

a single pixel.

yes, and image the ability to represent state as some sort of ... up counting token.

also YOU don't have to do that. The server does. and it already knows.

[fallen rover]

Yup but the server still needs the whole array to know how the image looked to the user and then quallify it with a timestamp

[tender urchin]

im down

[manic torrent]

why does it give a shit about the user

also, it KNOWS the timestamp of the submission

using ANY client data is a terrible terrible idea.

at most, you could accept the ID of the latest change they received so you can sequence it

it is merely a sequence of tuples. X, Y, C. In order.

[fallen rover]

Because the server needs this information to handle the temporality:

1. Which pixel was picked
2. How the image looked (which is basically a whole pixel array of the current state)
3. When the pixel was placed (the temporal timestamp we talked about, epoch time)
4. It has to check other request to check which one came first: you or someone else
5. It has to check the adjacent pixels as well

[manic torrent]

#2 the server has this, it doesn't need it from the client

#4 who cares, you get shoved on the queue in order

#3 epoch time is 1970 00:00, but yes that time is when the request is received

[fallen rover]

Nope. The server does not know this because it cannot see what the user sees. It cannot predict which state the user is seeing, depending on their connection, last refresh and how good their internet speed is

[manic torrent]

#5 is this a thing? I don't know how it works in this way

[manic torrent]

... you don't know shit about fuck

also please don't design any algorithms

[fallen rover]

I do a lot of progamming. I have experience with GPU programming and processors

[manic torrent]

and zero experience with distributed things

You cannot trust the client. EVER.

[wispy marsh]

You can have my data as long as you can't have it

That's the safest developer policy

[fallen rover]

I know you can't trust the client. That's why you need multiple samples to determine if the user is a legit user or a bot or if stuff is not in sync

[manic torrent]

.....

who cares what the sync is. Like legit, why do you need to care AT ALL what the client sees

If they are out of sync, that's their problem

and at MOST, all you need is an ID if where they are in the event stream

[fallen rover]

Because you need to determine which pixel is clicked, how the state was and how they saw it

[wispy marsh]

:D

I'll just use your website, give you the click, and refer the client to another website of mine

How they access my site would be through phishing emails, scam calls, word of mouth etc

[fallen rover]

I usually just tell my friends about my projects and they just forward it to random people

[sweet jetty]

Yeah but they sell for super cheap now and with mods you can play psp games on it

[wispy marsh]

[dreamy rose]

true.

but same cant be said for the storage. 64GB for 200 dollars fuck that

[sweet jetty]

Just get a microsd to memory stick converter, that's what I use with my psp too lol

[fallen rover]

Would be cool if Linus hosted his own r/place like he did with the Minecraft server

[sweet jetty]

Eh I mean

[fallen rover]

But like with a r/place server on a server rack

[sweet jetty]

What? Why would you wanna host r/place locally? P sure you can't do that

You mean an r/place sorta event?

[fallen rover]

Nah, what he did some time ago is that he hosted a Minecraft server on a server rack that all his fans could join

But the same with r/place kinda thing but not reddit

[sweet jetty]

You can do that with Minecraft servers

[fallen rover]

Like r/place in Minecraft?

[fervent granite]

RP flip gang represent!

[sweet jetty]

No 😭 host Minecraft servers on well, servers

[fallen rover]

Ah okay I've only played on realms

[heavy dust]

my doctor said i’m morbidly a beast

[runic sierra]

Anyone have the Fractal Torrent Compact or other sizes? Was curious how the RGB is controlled. Is there a way to shut it off easily when not using it?

[pulsar violet]

Yall seen the rate limit on X?

Like how is Twitter being rebranded to X of all things

[pliant karma]

tickets acquired to go see Oppenhiemer this thursday here we come baby

[shy elk]

Can someone help me my sisters copy of kid pix deluxe 3 keeps crashing on win8.1

[pliant karma]

My friends bought out the last seats at the end of the row we wanted to sit lol

[shy elk]

And Windows 10 32bit

Idk what to do about it anymore

[tender geyser]

any printer heads here?

[low rain]

Was supposed to watch Barbie today but got kicked out cause they thought me and my friends snuck in even though we all had our receipts and also have proof of payment on our phones

I’m prolly gonna go watch either Barbie or Oppenheimer this weekend

But like this whole week I’m ab to be busy asf 😭😭😭

[tender geyser]

feminist barbie'

[fallen rover]

Would it be viable to utilize Windows 7 in 2023 if one aquariums Avast antai virus?

[tender geyser]

i giggled

[cyan umbra]

can someone explain to me amd cpu naming in intel terms

[full fossil]

Google it?

[cosmic sluice]

is the forums site down for anyone else rn? i get this message whenever trying to login:
Server capacity exceeded
We were unable to complete your request due to high server load.

We've been notified of the issue, and are working to resolve it as quickly as possible.

Please try again later.

[cyan umbra]

wasnt reallt helpful lol

i just need to know which number shows if its high end, low end, or mid range

[full fossil]

Oh well

[heady pumice]

Amd is kinda different, because their best chip for gaming rn is a R 7 8700x3d

[dapper whale]

Anyone here see Oppenheimer

[heady pumice]

But high end is basically the same as intel
Intel is i9 amd is R 9
Just not with this generation

[cyan umbra]

ah, because that would make sense

[heady pumice]

But really look into it and do research as I said the r7 7800x3d is the best gaming chip they have to offer also the 3d moniker is usually their gaming focused processors

[cyan umbra]

yeah im gonna stick with intel and nvidia till amd gets their naming scheme together

[heady pumice]

wdym

imo intel is far more confusing having to deal with k and random numbers

[cyan umbra]

i just dont wanna fuck with amd
order the wrong cpu
mix up the gpu and cpu because apparently thats an issue

[cyan umbra]

its just gen, model, locked or not

[heady pumice]

amd doesn’t lock any of their cpus

[manic torrent]

it's not rocket surgery.

[cyan umbra]

well just dont buy a locked cpu

k as in “k this ones cool to overclock”

[manic torrent]

I mean, it's a potential issue in abstract, but not really in practice.

[heady pumice]

Also intel is super hot and pulls to much wattage can’t use it in my sfx build

[cyan umbra]

i pretty much just look up amd equivalents if i want a good price

[manic torrent]

yep. all intel builds are on fire. They don't have any CPUs that draw less than 100W.

My XPS13 is a fever dream, clearly

[heady pumice]

Meanwhile the 7800x3d pulls 85 watts and has more power than all of amds chips and intel’s chips

Truly the 1080ti of CPU’s, I doubt amd will even be able to make another one

[cyan umbra]

i live in texas n powers pretty inexpensive

[manic torrent]

that isn't even remotely the point

also it's cheap because when it gets cold it stops working.

[heady pumice]

Lmao

[cyan umbra]

eh i use a 13600k cooling hasnt really been an issue

[heady pumice]

Put it in a sfx build, you will

[cyan umbra]

i have no idea what that means 🔥🔥

[heady pumice]

Small form factor

[cyan umbra]

i dont need a small form factor, my desk is big enough

[heady pumice]

Nice, mine isn’t tho. But here I’m done it will be the size of a PlayStation 5

[cyan umbra]

cool

[indigo plume]

optimal size for 4k monitor ?

[cyan umbra]

i wouldnt reccomend 4k but id say around 32in

[pliant karma]

lol I do be using 2 reddit accounts to place pixels at dif intervals

[indigo plume]

well I have a 7900xtx would be a waste to not run 4k

[cyan umbra]

fair enough

[cyan umbra]

is that a gpu

[indigo plume]

yes

[heady pumice]

I’m getting a 7900xtx soon how’s the drivers, asked in another chat but you have one

[indigo plume]

drivers I havent had issues with so far

everything seems to be running well

[heady pumice]

Last amd card I had was a 5700xt that thing had tons of problems. So good glad everything should be working

[indigo plume]

yeah I heard about driver issues with the 5000 cards

this time around amd seems better

[heady pumice]

[polar fern]

@fallen rover nah. Plastic.

[cyan umbra]

might try the intel gpu some day

[fallen rover]

Still looks good. Good purchase bro

I'm just chilling with some breakfast at the moment rewatching Linus testing 500 hz

[polar fern]

@vapid smelt I need the headers & storage? 🤔🤷‍♂️

[indigo plume]

selling my ultra wide monitor for a 4k monitor since Im getting tired of these black bars

[polar fern]

Heh.

@acoustic pond Honestly not sure. The case can fit it tho

[heady pumice]

I just learned to live with it, plus flawless widscreen and borderless gaming helps a lot

[indigo plume]

tried playing resident evil 7

find with older games

they dont support ultra wide much

[heady pumice]

have you used flawless widescreen? Especially for older games it should have a lot of them

[indigo plume]

whats that

[dreamy rose]

i think people forget this a lot.

[heady pumice]

It’s a program that set’s resolution of games for ultrawides

[indigo plume]

i see

I will try it out

[dreamy rose]

i mean, including me. i forget intel locks 99% of their chips or something like that.

[heady pumice]

Yeah plus you kinda have to interject things yourself, how long have you been a ultra wide user

[indigo plume]

only a few months now

[heady pumice]

Yeah it’s really sad

[heady pumice]

I see, I’ve been using them for years so I’ve learned some tricks

[sonic spruce]

Am I allowed to ask questions involving how to download a video on chrome?

Or no…

[polar fern]

Is it copyright protected?

[sonic spruce]

In this case, no

[polar fern]

You should be fine then

[sonic spruce]

Because it was made like 100 years ago…

[sonic spruce]

Yes but the question is how

[polar fern]

Oh like an old digitized film?

[sonic spruce]

Basically it’s like Charlie Chaplin if that makes sense

[polar fern]

There’s a few ways.

There are some media players that can playback embedded video file formats

[sonic spruce]

Such as realplayer or you talking about something else?

[polar fern]

Not my area of expertise, but I do know that archivists use them very frequently

[sonic spruce]

Do you know of an archivists that could assist me personally?

[polar fern]

Worst case scenario you simply isolate, the video frame in a window and record it using something like OBS

[sonic spruce]

Yes that is true

[polar fern]

You could contact a University with a film archiving department.

[sonic spruce]

Uhhhhh

Let’s say I have the movie up on my screen already. And rather just know how to do it myself so I don’t have to bother people

My girlfriend is a librarian and archiving is a skill that she has but doesn’t really use. Unfortunately she’s asleep right now or I could definitely ask her where the best resources would be

[sonic spruce]

1. Could you ask her and possibly dm me tomorrow for further assistance?
2. How did you get a gf? I would like one cuz reasons.

[polar fern]

Just use OBS & capture using at least 2-3 qualities from highest to lowest.

🤣

[sonic spruce]

Yes ik

I used to be able to inspect element and download it that way

[polar fern]

Mhm

The frame on the page is probably locked

Some sites lock their content.

[sonic spruce]

Yeah it keeps sending me to the home page

[polar fern]

Can you zoom in the browser window to make the player bigger? Some support that

[sonic spruce]

I’ll try rn

[polar fern]

It’s weird that you mentioned Charlie Chaplin because my girlfriend and I were talking about him a whole bunch earlier today, and now I’m going to ask her about archiving tools that you might be able to use 👀

He has several surviving children.

And what if I wanted to use it for say… Thomas the tank engine?

Idk if that’s copyrighted or not, but it’s on public television paid for by government and is on everyone’s tv wether they like it or not

Was pretty fun but he called my dad

[low rain]

For some reason my grandma is awake at 1:30am wtf 😭

I told her she should go to sleep

[small zephyr]

anyone an idea how i can give an app perm gps acces?

i can set my bicycle navi app usage while in use which causes my navigation to loose my location when in background like bein in standby? sleep mode how is it called on phones lmao

[distant wren]

Hello new to the server 👍

[distant wren]

Wait did you hack yourself into that server

[distant wren]

Grandmas being awake at any time 🕰️

[fallen rover]

Nope he saw me in general chat while I was messing with some random german guy

Then he saw my username and knew it was me

Then I got a call from my dad at like 8 pm

[distant wren]

Don’t be trolling that’s not good 👍🏻

[fallen rover]

Too late now, I've done it all my life

[low rain]

I felt like making a sandwich so I went to the kitchen and mh grandma walks in and is like “you need to get off your phone and sleep”

[distant wren]

Well she is concerned 🤷‍♂️ grandma are also mothers but more advanced and sometimes need patches

[low rain]

It was so random like I thought everyone was asleep

[distant wren]

She never sleeps

[low rain]

Like she scared me cause her room is downstairs and at first I was sitting down and js saw a someone walking up our stairs

And I didn’t have my glasses on

[distant wren]

Oh boy well she genuinely cares about you.

rare to have such a sweet grandma, even though it may not have felt like it at that time

[low rain]

I love grandmas so much

[visual rapids]

Hey

How to force an application to stop responding and bring up the not responding prompt (for testing)

[hardy cobalt]

wtf lmaoooo

[hardy cobalt]

same😈😈😈

[tight dust]

Sorry to take this to general (no one is responding in tech chat) but in terms of gaming and no workstation use (rendering etc) is a r7 5800x3d better than a r9 5900x?

[dull tapir]

is it just me or is 125% windows scaling much better than 100% scaling for 1440p

despite it having weird gaps on the borders

[junior kite]

ehhh i use 100% for a 15" pc, never had a bigger monitor (except 55")

it's a tv

[dull tapir]

for 27 inch 100% is so tiny for me

i like 100% scaling on 1080p and 24 inch

[junior kite]

i like 100% for fhd and 15"

[dull tapir]

for 720p and 1080p 100% is good

[junior kite]

wondering... is 720p just "hd" or is it not considered a part of the hd family?

[dull tapir]

but for 1440p and 4k 100% is tiny

[junior kite]

i remember years ago when youtube had the little "hd" thing for 720p

[dull tapir]

yes they went from fhd to hd

[junior kite]

yeah i do remember

i remember too when for a period running 1080p60 videos would lag on my dad's pc

now on same pc it doesnt

it was about 4 years ago

we should move our discussion to #tech-chat-1...

[dull tapir]

sure but this chat is quite empty

[junior kite]

yeah agree, but i dont really wanna get punishment

[fallen rover]

Hey kev I've got a Honda Civic modded to go 300 mph, wanna race me?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMWnAMScFws just gonna put this here an hope someone at lmg sees it

(fly me to the moon ai linus cover)

[uncut lantern]

Better than i thought

[timid meadow]

Used to be HD. But "HD" is more of a loose relative description then it is a class of display or resolution

[graceful burrow]

720p is HD
1080p is Full HD (fhd)

[umbral sail]

The moment you thought the train wreck couldnt get worser (twitter)

[wispy marsh]

1440p is fuller HD
2560p is fullest HD

5120p is fullerest, and that's that

[dull tapir]

this just keeps changing because of marketing

and rapid advancements

i barely see any difference between 1080p and 1440p

also 720p to 1440p and 1080p to 4k are perfect doubles or compatibilities

[neon mesa]

got three new RGB 12V fans
now we have this interesting config with the old ones

[cedar flame]

there's just that one little 80mm

[neon mesa]

my thermalright cpu cooler still no ARGB
but ordered those 12V to 5V deepcool active converter so i can use it

[wispy marsh]

Low turbulence smh

[wispy marsh]

At 32", it makes a difference. I have both in my house and at 3' I'd rather use the 32"

[neon mesa]

even on my 22 1080p feels like shit when i need to focus on smaller targets

enemy planes just blob of pixels

[dull tapir]

32 1080p and 32 1440p are different but 24 1080p and 27 1440p not so much

[wispy marsh]

Oh

24" 1080p == 32" 1440p

[dull tapir]

i went from 24 to 27 and i barely see any difference

[wispy marsh]

The sharpness in games goes up by a lot, but yes it's not much more noticeable at 27"

[timid meadow]

Depends on screen size too. I definitely see a difference between 1080 and 1440 on 55"+

[wispy marsh]

No fair, you can't compare it on a 55"

[dull tapir]

density does change to higher but since size gets bigger it is not as noticeable like 1440p on 24 compared to 1080p on 24 would for sure look sharper while 1440p on 27 compared to 1080p on 24 is not as drastic but still better

[wispy marsh]

Punctuation.

[dull tapir]

true but i am speaking about 1080 on 24 vs 1440 on 27

[wispy marsh]

That is unreadable

[dull tapir]

while density is still better

[dull tapir]

completely readable

[wispy marsh]

Urgh

[dull tapir]

use imagination

[dull tapir]

where is your "." at the end

it is completely unreadable

[wispy marsh]

Just lose quietly

Mod chipping is required for other region ps1 games

Rather just mod a ps1
Which is what I'm gonna do

Oh, it's moded

Well privacy wise it is, but with search results indeed

[fierce moth]

Google is too convenient

Plus trackers are blocked with pihole lol

Fuck you google

[ocean narwhal]

I dont keep track but im p sure ddg was caught blocking russian stuff from search results

I installed adnauseum for adblocking and tracker shit but it doesnt seem to really do much

has only ever activated on 2 ads according to the vault thing

[chilly fiber]

1. If you don't keep track, why talk about it?
2. DDG only down-ranked proven Russian propaganda sites after the Ukrainian invasion.

[ocean narwhal]

Who's deciding if its proven propaganda 🤔

Sounds to me like they just blocked basically all russian sources indiscriminately

[chilly fiber]

Why do you care? You didn't track the news about it

[ocean narwhal]

If they publicly say they downrank russian stuff guarantee they downrank other stuff and dont tell us

The incompatibility warning is because BIOS update on motherboard

[raw kraken]

No idc what case

[feral topaz]

Dave2d with a hilarious video on framework. Says he paid 2100 preorder for a laptop that would cost 1250 today. In 2 years time if he upgrades the gpu it will cost 400 so 2500 total, he could buy another laptop for 1250 at the time.. missing the point on reducing e-waste where now he had 1 laptop instead of 2... then goes on to talk about "but the screen will be outdated and the trackpad and keyboard worn" and then shows videos of the whole point framework exists, ease of replacing trackpad and keyboard. The point about the screen is also dumb unless you get a higher refresh rate panel, because panel tech aint gonna increase that much in 2 to 3 years. The movement today is keep it fhd/qhd and make it 165hz+, they literally reduced resolution from 4k on laptops to QHD

[modest leaf]

should have gone with DDR2 tbh

Some of daves videos are such a miss. When I bought my razer blade stealth he did a similar thing... a video on the stealth, said it was good, then said bit the issue with razer is they used intel and not AMD... bro just review the f**king product, who gives a shit if its AMD or intel, tell us how good that one is

[gaunt compass]

Seems like a good deal. I wouldn't worry about giving it a try at that price.

I bought it, they have a 30-day warranty period anyway

So maybe just hate the system not the person.

can you look on the #1027757333117415424

I've just sended my problem on there

[timid meadow]

Depends on who you ask. Beyond 120 is diminishing returns, but theres almost always a latency benefit because you have more frames to respond. How much of that benefit you actually notice depends on the game your playing and how good you are at it

Im personally happy gaming at 60fps

[night ether]

I just wanna Game above 60 bc like fps games n shit but like I just don’t know if a “high refresh rate“ starts at 100 or if it isn‘t worth it

[timid meadow]

What’s the best search engine do y’all think? Privacy and search results

[past egret]

google.

its goog enough

It is on SSDs, that's why I said the drives will be dead 3 years sooner, it's a mixture of ZIPX and ZPAQ to compress different types of assets depending on type every time a game closes, the benefit is an extra 350GB of games per drive, the downside is all the R/W

[native crag]

Game assests are already compressed, no?

[full fossil]

Yeah but I compressed them further, basically everytime I play I game, I decompress them, then when I close out of the game, I recompress them, thus, a lot more space on the drive to play with

[native crag]

How much compression are you getting out of it?

[full fossil]

From a 3TB drive at capacity, after compression I save around 350-400GB

If you can deal with the 5 minute wait to load a game but after its decompressed, it's no different to a vanilla steam file structure

[native crag]

Guess much of those assets aren't compressed as much as I thought

[naive light]

are delivery companies as shit in america as they are in netherlands

[ionic abyss]

what a pain

depends on th carrier

[full fossil]

Going to dump it up on github once I can compensate for game update thresholds

[ionic abyss]

if i didnt owe 1000 on this phone i wouldnt consider repair

[indigo phoenix]

I just compress my entire filesystem

[naive light]

postNL is so garbage that you can get your package delayed for 16 consecutive days

[native crag]

It's not too bad in Windows

[naive light]

well deliver at 12 to 4
sorry for delay 4 to 8
oops cant make it 12 to 4 tomorrow

[ionic abyss]

temp phone and repair costs woo hoo

$500 down the drain

[native crag]

Don't use disk compression through with future titles that use Direct Storage

[indigo phoenix]

Ah I don’t do it in Windows but every Linux system I use or deploy is all BTRFS ZSTD:6 compressed

[naive light]

i ordered a bedframe at my new apt and its supposed to deliver today (its 4AM) and i still dont know when itll come

[rare hamlet]

So it was your fault not the delivery guy

Did you not have a case or screen protector

[naive light]

my mattress was delayed but idk how long. i dont live at new apt in a different city yet, and neighbors arent going to store a bedframe for undefined period

[ionic abyss]

it was in a case

[native crag]

For my NAS, I don't bother with compression, because it's all media files anyways. Can't compress files that are inharently compressed (MP3s, videos, etc)

[ionic abyss]

i will be more carefull

[naive light]

its high time for society to start being more convenient

[ionic abyss]

in the future and will spring for a protector right after it gets back from repair

3 ft onto carpet

[native crag]

lol, that requires people giving a damn with a strong worth ethic.

[ionic abyss]

im upset

[naive light]

or a whip

[ionic abyss]

first time ive cracked a screen

[wind pulsar]

I'm typing this on a device made so people can be as lazy as possible, bless Steve Jobs and 2000s Apple engineers

[naive light]

people who use the word lazy have yet to process their authoritarian upbringing

what delivery company thinks their clients just have all the time in the world

[polar fern]

la·zy
adjective
1.
unwilling to work or use energy.
"he was too lazy to cook"

Man. All these idiotic money-grabbing moves by companies in the last few months.

[long briar]

just as we were finally starting to embrace a streamlined society, with its flaws, we backtrack and now politics is a dumpster fire

and with tech, Apple had that idea couple decades ago, and when they got popular, nerds started making it cool to hate Apple

[naive light]

politics has always been a dumpster fire

us vs them mentality is lame

clean your own personality and trauma

[wind pulsar]

You act like businesses haven't been doing money-grabbing shit for hundreds of years lol

We're just in our modern version of it

[viral vine]

is there a text channel here that would be well suited for 3D printing discussion

[graceful burrow]

Not a specific channel no

[polar fern]

@wind pulsar cool thanks for thinking I’m stupid

[wind pulsar]

No problem. :)

[manic torrent]

hmmmm... I think a small low power system I can install linux onto with real time optimisations, shove a firewire card in it, and have it show the screens I'm installing on the mixer, and I'll have a $10,000 audio system for a few hundred bucks

[wispy marsh]

New sheepskin! Same old wolf!

Bring us our margins, our profits, your data and your tithes!

[fallen rover]

LTT doesn't operate like this. They provide quality merch and water bottles

[manic torrent]

ok?

[wind pulsar]

I mean that's great
But when did I ever mention LMG

[fallen rover]

You didn't. Just wanted to mention that LTT is a good company with good values

[wispy marsh]

Here's the thing

Linus mentioned on WAN show countless times:

"Companies are not your friend. We gotta eat, right?"

The lime day shipping, I think they took an L just to make some liquid

[graceful burrow]

Some companies are eating too fucking much

[wispy marsh]

That I agree. I also agree that Apple needs more money into R&D, and more money into cross-region feature parity

[graceful burrow]

Apple needs less money into anti right to repair lobbying

[wispy marsh]

It's ridiculous that my country doesn't have Fitness+

Well, they can make it so that the chips are much more complex to manufacture for the shelves, and the supply is actually logistically limited to new products

They've been pushing it hard this way since Cooks

[wind pulsar]

Yeah, no

LMG is not your friend and LMG does not care about you shilling for them, end of the story

[polar fern]

Apple put more money into r&d? 28 billion in the last year not enough???

[wispy marsh]

Apple actually cut their Vision Pro forecast by 60~80% (down to 200k~400k). The tolerances and qc was so stringent that many units didn't pass at the factory

[polar fern]

Old news

[wispy marsh]

You know what's not old?

Our sponsor, lttstore.com!

LTT store features high-quality water bottles, children's toys, quality jackets and windbreakers...

Gottem

[patent socket]

i feel like va vs ips is kinda overblown

like yeah ips is better but va isnt THAT bad if you get a decent one and theyre good for budget

[manic torrent]

I feel like you are a) right and b) absolutely full of shit. Because sometimes it matters A LOT, and sometimes it barely matters

[wispy marsh]

Low-quality TN and high-quality OLED gets a lot of it

The majority of the middle, we're just the happy silent ones

[manic torrent]

putting a VA next to my oled makes it look fucking horrible

[patent socket]

daily use including school stuff and gaming (personal monitor is VA gaming laptop is IPS)

[wispy marsh]

Bob's happy with his $100 gsync monitor

[patent socket]

well yeah its an oled bruh price is not really comparable lmao

[manic torrent]

yes, but the IPS are fine

[wispy marsh]

Speaking of which, I don't see it in any of your pics

[manic torrent]

OTOH I have had an ultrawide VA, and it was perfectly cromulent

[patent socket]

its definitely better but if you fiddle with the settings a va isnt all that nuch worse

[wispy marsh]

May we have wife workstation pics pleeeease

[manic torrent]

hmmm? waht gsync monitor

I got a firewire interface/mixer

[wispy marsh]

The cheap monitor you got because the gsync was causing flickering

[manic torrent]

oh no that wasn't me.

[wispy marsh]

[manic torrent]

don't get me wrong, I have lots of monitors and would totally do something like that

[wispy marsh]

Early onset dementia incoming

[manic torrent]

The difference in VA and IPS for use as a primary monitor, in monitors that aren't shit, is mostly overdone, 10000%

In my use case, I'm using it immediately next to an oled.... in portrait. VA is a bad choice.

[minor shoal]

Does anyone happen to know how I can fix the shitty new system tray in Windows 11? It doesn't resize so it's a square, it looks like shit honestly:
https://i.imgur.com/reiyDyO.png

[wispy marsh]

I changed from an acer IPS to a goldstar VA monitor, I don't mind the VA at all.

[patent socket]

i got a solid VA 165hz monitor for $50 from a friend (do not look at my pcpartpicker list i know my priorities are out of wack) ill definitely switch to ips or oled eventually though

[graceful burrow]

Install windows 10

[wispy marsh]

Install windows 10

[polar fern]

Apple Vision Air will be the second tier

[fallen rover]

That's the only argument you have? It's not called being a shilling towards a company just because you like it. Linus and his staff make videos for free and provide good content. On the side, they earn a little bit extra by selling physical items to pay their employees and help their families. At the end of the day, you can choose to watch their content for free or you can give them a little bit extra as a thanks. I'd say that's a good company

[graceful burrow]

Honestly the weirdest nitpick

[patent socket]

oled is amazing ive used one a few times but the price ist nicht gut

[rigid tide]

i cannot for the LIFE of me figure out what those little tiny inside the pc display monitor things are called and i really want one 😭

[minor shoal]

Nah windows 11 is better in every way

[wispy marsh]

W11's start menu is terrible

[patent socket]

true

[manic torrent]

Right click, arrange by pens.

[minor shoal]

except for this, the fact that the top menu in file explorer seems unremovable and that i had to do a registry edit before it showed me the entire context menu

[graceful burrow]

Bro I'm literally helping you in #tech-chat-1 stop spammin

[wind pulsar]

I'm not even gonna read 10% of that, you're shilling for them and they want your money that all your relationship with them is. LTT is just part of that and has barely anything to do with what I'm refering to

[wispy marsh]

It's just a display using some internal header, or an external display output that goes back into the pc

[patent socket]

plus the left click thing is annoying cause it makes third party options (like 7zip) more annoying to access

[rigid tide]

okya thank you

[polar fern]

@rigid tide the screens built into the case?

[fallen rover]

Just look at Linus' perfect screwdriver. He spent a lot of money on R and D to make it perfect

[minor shoal]

Nothing happens when I right click on the arrow nor in the rectangled area. Am I right clicking in the wrong place?

[manic torrent]

search for aida64 on aliexpress

[fallen rover]

I like how you said you only read 10% but you read the whole thing. Well done, still using the same shill argument.

[wind pulsar]

I genuinely didn't

[polar fern]

🤔

[rigid tide]

oh god aliexpress i stoop so low just to have silly little goobers in my pc

[fallen rover]

And yet you'

[patent socket]

wtf is an eDP connector does that mean i could hook up a little laptop panel to my pc

[wind pulsar]

I only saw 'LTT' in the message and immediately knew what you were saying

[fallen rover]

You're still replying to me

[manic torrent]

aliexpress is a marketplace like many others, and features a lot of products that are very difficult to get elsewhere.

[wispy marsh]

You mean this one?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rjS38bAugtk

[wind pulsar]

I don't need to read the rest to know what standard argument you were pulling out

[polar fern]

LGR has that oddware pc with the all the drive bay inserts

[graceful burrow]

No they don't mean that one lol

[wispy marsh]

I know

[fallen rover]

LTT is one of the most honest companies and you're taking this L 🙂

[graceful burrow]

Nobody ever means that one

[minor shoal]

What are you trying to get? Aida64 is benchmarking/PC Info software wdym with little goobers

[graceful burrow]

Shoutouts to that time they fucking lied about not doing shitty clickbait titles anymore

[rigid tide]

that is cool where do i get one im gonna display vane lily on it

[polar fern]

@rigid tide

[manic torrent]

you're still not getting picked for the team

[minor shoal]

If the worst you can say about someone is that they make clickbait titles then they're not bad....

[fallen rover]

He made a video where he changed a bunch of titles to make them less click baity

[wispy marsh]

I have no idea.

[fallen rover]

I don't want a job at LTT, I just buy their stuff and enjoy their YT content

[rigid tide]

little goobers as in vane lily and ghost and pals
