EXPAND. DIETARY. OPTIONS.

[gray pollen]

I'm sorry you don't have it in you to make it fresh but still sounds good.

[gray pollen]

And if u can't take a multivitamin.

[tardy terrace]

or 2

[manic torrent]

yeah I mean it's decent stuff - it's premade, but not frozen.

[full fossil]

fresh pasta takes surprisingly like 10 mins

[gray pollen]

Or 3, but ask ur doctor first.

[tardy terrace]

pls guys just stop eating so much fast food- y'all can cook its so easy

[unkempt widget]

my friend makes pasta sometimes

[gray pollen]

Pasta isn't tortellini.

[manic torrent]

piss off it does

[tardy terrace]

I guess if you've been on food network it does

[gray pollen]

I cook from scratch then freeze so I don't judge. It's dumb to me people are against frozen food.

[gray pollen]

How long does it take you?

[unkempt widget]

i don't like frozen food tbh

[grizzled hazel]

You can taste the difference

[unkempt widget]

i'd much prefer it be hot

[gray pollen]

You also don't like brocolli so... 🤷‍♀️

[tardy terrace]

last time I made spagooters from scratch it was like 20 minutes playing with the dough before I got it in the water

[full fossil]

i dont keep track of foods names

[manic torrent]

plus having all the stuff, plus cleaning

[potent cedar]

very random question but anyone here knows how wide of an expansion card you can fit in a low profile optiplex?

[tardy terrace]

egg + flour
volcano shape w/ flour, add egg, fold until doughy

[gray pollen]

It would take longer because you have to cut and fold them like dumplings.

[full fossil]

oh those things

yea ik what u mean lol and yea it would

[full fossil]

ig im quick or made a smol portion

[gray pollen]

It's not that much longer than 10 mins, but it doesn't take much longer to clean up than buying Boxed spaget

[full fossil]

egg yolk*

[tardy terrace]

yea that

its late, i'm drunk, and tired

[unkempt widget]

hi drunk, and tired

[full fossil]

go sleep

[tardy terrace]

welcome to me after having to scrub the fryer

[manic torrent]

yeah - it's also a dice roll on whether or not my son is trying to ruin everything. Today he dumped my fukll glass of water on the bench. ugh.

[tardy terrace]

nO im not quite ready yet

[full fossil]

you have a fryer?

[tardy terrace]

At work, yes.

[full fossil]

i am but i cant

[gray pollen]

Are you a single parent?

[full fossil]

pog

[gray pollen]

If that's too personal sry

[tardy terrace]

Nobody else cleans it so I do it twice a week (I'd love to do daily but we don't have the income to get that much oil)

[manic torrent]

no, but he has down syndrome and cerebral palsy, so sometimes even two aint enough 🙂

more recently he had an ongoing ear infection, so running water or cooking stuff sizzling would cause him pain, that was super fun

[full fossil]

ive always wondered what restaurants do with the leftover oil

[tardy terrace]

Storage bin/tank, gets pumped like a septic tank

[gray pollen]

I vibe I used to live with 4 kids who all had either bipolar, autism, adhd, or all 3. If there weren't 3 adults, it would've been hard to cook.

[tardy terrace]

gets hauled, filtered, cleaned, recycled

lots of it gets turned to biodiesel

[full fossil]

cant it be recycled into diesel or smth that cars that run on diesel can use?

[full fossil]

yea thats what i meant lol

[tardy terrace]

asd+adhd baybee

[manic torrent]

isn't everyone ASD/ADHD? 😄

[gray pollen]

I feel like schizspec is tied, but hella

[gray pollen]

Not even close

[tardy terrace]

^

[manic torrent]

everyone HERE 😛

[gray pollen]

Possibly

But I don't wanna think abt that bc black and white thinking

And delusions and assumptions ad a bunch of other jargon that requires more explanation than it's worth.

[tardy terrace]

It's interesting actually, I think there was a study that found folks w/ ASD are more prevalent to identifying as trans

wait i worded that wrong

[gray pollen]

Same with schizspec

[tardy terrace]

oh good you understood anyways

[manic torrent]

yeah

[unkempt widget]

i don't see how

[manic torrent]

basically we're all a little... different

[tardy terrace]

different = fun

[gray pollen]

I am a big fan of reading those Cutting edge psych papers.

[tardy terrace]

I just find psych & medical things fascinating

[gray pollen]

It's why tech spaces > other spaces

[gray pollen]

I don't, I just find doctors scarily uninformed

[full fossil]

space > tech spaces /jk kinda

[manic torrent]

good news, it's nost just about psych stuff. Doctors are amazingly useless unless you fall into their nice little boxes

[gray pollen]

Or I guess, I do now, kinda, but it's like a song you didn't like playing a million times until it "grows" on you

[gray pollen]

I have talked about that a lot in therapy 🙃 and nurses are the scariest

[tardy terrace]

I still need to find a therapist lmao

[gray pollen]

Ymmv

[tardy terrace]

nurses? wtf I love nurses, especially the phleb staff I've enountered lately

[unkempt widget]

i have no idea what's happening in this chat now

[gray pollen]

I know more antivax and wannabe doctor nurses than I do bad doctors.

[tardy terrace]

Also your cat's fuckin' adorable

[gray pollen]

😭😭😭 ty he's also a mush idk how I got so lucky

[gray pollen]

What are you and mom doing for yourselves this week?

[tardy terrace]

just gotta love it when a cat picks you

[gray pollen]

And he ~picked~ me. Straight up Claw through the cage, wouldn't let me look at other cats

[manic torrent]

stayin alive 😄

[tardy terrace]

Sounds like my bby Cleo- lived 2 houses down, ended up hanging out in our garage, got attached to me

16 years later she still sleeps with me every night

[manic torrent]

We went to nanas house for dinner sunday night and had Oporto (chicken) that was nice

[tardy terrace]

AH, AH, AH, AH

[full fossil]

I would send pic of cat but pics not allowed😔

[gray pollen]

Precious 😭 lucky the other family didn't pay enough attention to *her

[gray pollen]

Do you two at least do like, late movie dates at home or anything?

[gray pollen]

There's a pets channel

[tardy terrace]

I still owe him a pint (or five) when I visit his country

[split mason]

How can I trick ps remote play to stream my phone via phone data

Cuz it only works via wifi

[tardy terrace]

there's a good reason for that

[split mason]

?

[gray pollen]

Did he save ur PC

[tardy terrace]

Nah, he's just a cool dude!

We have good bants, plus I wanna see his DIY crane

[full fossil]

i believe it either takes too much data or there isnt enough download/upload speeds

[tardy terrace]

Let's take a look at 2 big, key factors-
1: cell bands operate at about 800mhz, a fraction of what wifi runs at. It's designed for long distance coverage over cities w/ good object penetration
2: cell bands are omega-lol oversaturated with thousands on thousands of clients all fighting for their queue in the stack to t/x

[split mason]

Alr thx

[tardy terrace]

Now think about wanting to do low-latency audio/video, with low-latency input response over that network

[full fossil]

last time i did it actually worked quite well

[tardy terrace]

*ymmv do not quote me in any academic article

actually do, I want my name out there for the nerd cred

[full fossil]

[tardy terrace]

Why'm I awake

[full fossil]

i ask myself that every 4 AM ever

[gray pollen]

Most of the floatplane people seem chill

[full fossil]

most people here seems chill

[tardy terrace]

That's kinda what happens when adults who pay for a quality service hang out in a den full of dorks

we out here, vibin'

[full fossil]

hey dont speak facts so loudly

[gray pollen]

I have a feeling this server is better when school is in session.

[manic torrent]

I mean, we sometimes watch movies and do stuff together. It's not that it doesn't happen, but we have also been married for 18 years

[tardy terrace]

[dreamy rose]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EK_1cIMWZeQ&t=0s

[gray pollen]

The length of the marriage is what makes it important! Especially when all your time is spent above and beyond the usual levels of caring for another person!

[tardy terrace]

Most things in online life are better when school is in session- it's like the mosquitos fucking off for autumn & winter

SnR goes down

I'm failing at coming up with other analogies

[dreamy rose]

Reddit has a protest so coomers go touch grass for 48 hours

[tardy terrace]

..?

[gray pollen]

I broke my nail 😭😭😭😭 I have been growing them out for so many months, progress lost 😭😭😭😭

[tardy terrace]

break out the acrylic

full-send on the style, do it

[dreamy rose]

rip extra nail.

[fallen maple]

Can somebody help me i have been overclocking and doing somestuff and my pc is limit throttling the more i put the power and temp limit down the higher frame rate is it safe to mess around with this if i put it lower then 100?

[gray pollen]

I don't like bidets, but I might switch since I was wiping when it broke

[dreamy rose]

now go for the world record

[tardy terrace]

Jonsey pls im trying to swallow my cider

[fallen maple]

peyton

[full fossil]

mmm cider (non alcoholic)

[dreamy rose]

are you asking if Undervolting is bad?

[gray pollen]

Ur drunk enough

[tardy terrace]

..it's my second one!

[fallen maple]

What im asking is if its okay that i lower my power limit and temp limit the more i do it the more fps i get because if i max it out my pc is power throttling

[gray pollen]

If you're already doing it, does it matter if it's okay? That's like asking if robbery is illegal after you already did it.

[gray pollen]

Weren't you drunk cleaning a fryer?

[tardy terrace]

Best to ask forgiveness, rather than permission

[tardy terrace]

drunk at work? fuck no

[gray pollen]

I had a teacher who earnestly taught that to 11 year olds

[tardy terrace]

..probably high off the oven cleaner

[fallen maple]

i didnt fully do it i put it down by like five but is it safe to change the power limit is the question im trying to get u to answer

[gray pollen]

I thought it was weird when I read it but I was like, maybe they're a bartender who got a bunch of buy backs tonight.

[tardy terrace]

Oh god me as a bartender

fuck that noise

[gray pollen]

Pretty sure it voids the warranty and you already did it so 🤷‍♀️

[fallen maple]

but does that mean its safe ive had my pc for 2 year no warranty

[tardy terrace]

its fine.

[fallen maple]

thanks

[tardy terrace]

if var(STABLE PERF) = true
then concernWorry = false

I do not code, please do not scrutinize me to death

[gray pollen]

He's totally gonna push it to instability by accident anyway so 🤷‍♀️

If he's so gun shy he asks permission after he did it, he's gonna make a mistake and be back here in 3 days.

[tardy terrace]

overclocking is something every budding enthusiast must endure

nooo my grinder is empty

[gray pollen]

He isn't overclocking tho, he's undervolting. He knows just enough to be dangerous.

Do u use apps for dating or just hookups?

[tardy terrace]

overclocking/undervolting, it's all uefi tweaks that's gonna void warranty
i.e. fun times

OH GOD no not the app, my herb grinder

[fallen maple]

if u are talking to me like that thing twice cause im good at pc stuff but always rather safe then sorry bud

[gray pollen]

Yeah but overclocking can actually damage components, not just lead to instability. Undervolting can just lead to instability. At least, that's my understanding. I've literally never had to do either until now, and I don't even feel like it so everything is still stock.

[gray pollen]

If you would rather be safe than sorry, you would've left it at stock.

[tardy terrace]

You are correct, yes- I'm just bad at wording

I blame the cider.

[gray pollen]

My b. I also thought like... female identifying on grinder, but I wasn't gonna question bc that's waaaaayyyyyyy too nosey, even for me.

[tardy terrace]

also if your cpu is struggling at stock config, get a better cooler

[full fossil]

I’m gonna cash my first paycheck today

[tardy terrace]

I mean I'm pretty open so nose away

[full fossil]

Thing is it’s not even the full amount I’m supposed to get paid 💀

I’m saving for monitor lmao

[tardy terrace]

put at least 1/5 of each paycheck into savings w/ a high apy

[full fossil]

I’m 17…

[tardy terrace]

[full fossil]

But yes that would be optimal

[gray pollen]

Starting early is smart

[full fossil]

But I’m earning like 700 usd so ain’t dat deep

[gray pollen]

It helped my hs bf so much in college, even if he only did it cause his parents made him.

[full fossil]

I have a savings acc since I got lucky on the lottery (not literally just born mid upper)

[full fossil]

Yea ima do that once I start working full/part time

[gray pollen]

I never use a grinder anymore. I hand break up everything. It's time consuming but i def smoke less.

[full fossil]

I was only working for like 3 weeks sooooo

[gray pollen]

Hey, I'm not a saver, I'm not judging, but I do wish I had started when I started earning a paycheck.

[tardy terrace]

^

[gray pollen]

And people in my life who did, faired out much better. No question. Even when factoring socioeconomic status of parents.

[full fossil]

Yea I getcha and ima prolly do half of each considering I’m still living with my mum

[gray pollen]

Even if not, or you start after getting your monitor, it's good to have in the back of your mind. Your 20s are the most important decade for compound savings growth.

[fallen maple]

my cpu fine

[tardy terrace]

You just said it wasn't..

[gray pollen]

Why aren't you getting your full check?

[tardy terrace]

probably initial training hours

[full fossil]

I was planing on doing it after my monitor upgrade

[fallen maple]

i said i was power throttling

[gray pollen]

I was thinking that delayed by 1 week check thing. Which would be normal.

[tardy terrace]

yeah, especially if you start mid check cycle

[full fossil]

Nope it’s cuz they didn’t inform me on how to get the money into my bank acc and now they only done it for one month

[tardy terrace]

Ssssso they owe you backpay

[full fossil]

But ima get next month my full

[tardy terrace]

oh, ok

[gray pollen]

It takes a while for direct deposit too, that's also normal. It'll hit when the account populates.

[full fossil]

Yea

[full fossil]

All due respect no clue what you’re on about but I have time

[gray pollen]

So you might get two checks at once or get one as soon as your account gets recognized.

[full fossil]

Have to go and cash it now

BRB

[dreamy rose]

hmm. so i'm saving to make a tower. what part to knock out next? PSU? CPU? Mobo?

[gray pollen]

It can take 2 weeks for a direct deposit to go through initially. I'm not sure what else to say about it. I've even had places take 2 pay periods, so a whole month to get paid via direct deposit.

[gray pollen]

If it was me: Everything that doesn't need to be tested together goes first, big parts that go together last. So case/psu/fans/etc I would do first, then mobo/cpu/gpu/ram so they can be tested together asap. If you have a PC you can test parts with as they come in, I would just hunt for deals and buy whatever is cheapest as it comes up.

[tardy terrace]

god this is some of the cheesiest weed ever- sour limburger

[gray pollen]

Sounds like a hybrid

[tardy terrace]

indica-dominant!

[dreamy rose]

i have 2x8GB DDR4 Sticks that are untested. so if those end up working i don't need to spend 50 bucks. tho the micron stick has a dinged up chip. shouldnt be problematic to function

[gray pollen]

How do you do on Sativa?

[tardy terrace]

I get the thc tweaks More energetic, creative, spastic on ideas & impulses

[dreamy rose]

i also have an SSD for it i purchased today. i wanna knock out the big price things so if family decided they do wanna buy the rest its not so big a price they pay. the motherboard is 150.

[gray pollen]

I would assume they work and replace them last if they don't. At least one stick should be good and that would be enough to test/post with.

[dreamy rose]

the Crucial stick looks to be perfectly fine, i gotta get someone in one of my classes to test it.

[gray pollen]

Do u feel like, idk... twitchy ever?

[tardy terrace]

I have restless leg syndrome, always

A less dipshit answer is yeah, sometimes, I'll get little involuntary twitches in my forearms or thighs

[gray pollen]

The problem is I would hate for you to be outside of a return window on a bigger part while you wait on another big part to test all of them. Have you thought about a used/open box prebuilt?

[gray pollen]

Mmm, I meant closer to like, feeling like you need to do something.

[tardy terrace]

oh, yes, absolutely

[gray pollen]

That's why I only smoke indica

[tardy terrace]

that is an actual & documented thing, I forget the actual term for it though

[gray pollen]

Damn. Did u successfully just get me to seriously consider not smoking?

[dreamy rose]

prebuilt? nah that's too expensive, i'm on Shoestring here. the build i';ve planed out is already 1.1KAUD, its a 5600G (cause its cheaper than a non g for some reason) and a 6700XT, which i might not even get to buy in the first place since stocks are down.

[tardy terrace]

It's mainly a sativa thing, just curb it w/ fidgeting!

[gray pollen]

Idk, I got my open box pre-built for about 900 aud.

[dreamy rose]

i'm also looking to get into VR so i cant go with cheap important shit too.

[gray pollen]

I just stay away from sativa bc clearly my body doesn't like it. It reminds me of when I had akistisia.

[sage flume]

POV: Linus dead and funeral being livestreamed
but first heres a segue to our sponsor

[dreamy rose]

bad Nvidia Products are off my list.

[gray pollen]

The pre-built is to give you a place to work from, without worrying about things like return windows. You can case swap and upgrade a pre-built yourself, slowly, while knowing that everything works and you have a system to test with.

[dreamy rose]

it also turns out that the only good value new cards here turn out to be all of the radeons

[full fossil]

Meh fine by me

Ik it’ll take a bit

Also driving is a bit painful at times

[dreamy rose]

i wont be playing modern AAA titles but i mean i'd still rather have 12 than 8GB of VRAM

[dreamy rose]

in his funeral presentation it'd be playing Supernova.

Sweet dreams! Do u mind if I friend u 👉👈

I don’t enjoy banana

[gray pollen]

Multivitamin. Especially prenatal.

when you guys listen to Supernova do you guys see the Intro in your brain?

Goodnight

[dreamy rose]

anyone remember when they introduced the RT Intro?

[gray pollen]

RT intro?

[dreamy rose]

there was the iconic intro from 2015-2020 and then they used the RT one a few videos after the "RT now has a reason to exist" video.

this video has all of em, so this is what i'm talking about
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAGNUw5aavk

[gray pollen]

I can't find it in that video and I just started watching LTT this year.

So like, I have no frame of reference.

[dreamy rose]

its in like the first 2 minutes

they call it modern in there

[gray pollen]

Intro 7?

[dreamy rose]

comes right after Iconic but mono

timestamps in the description if you didnt see em

[gray pollen]

Yeah okay, so what does RT have to do with anything? I was expecting the little tag line to say RT now has a reason to exist

[dreamy rose]

the one on that one is a little different so it got thrown in as a special intro.

they moved to the white one for a tiny bit then switched to dark mode.

[sick coral]

how good is the 10900k vs the 9900k?

[manic torrent]

About 1000

[full fossil]

My dad joke alarm went off

[full fossil]

Both bad tho

[sick coral]

i already have the 9900k so im looking to upgrade, but i dont have as much money this time so im looking at previous gens

[full fossil]

Literally any modern cpu eats both so no point in upgrading to 10900k

[sick coral]

currently im thinking about the 5800x3d but i wanna check all my options before buying

[manic torrent]

5700x is also a great option at a lower price.

[full fossil]

5800x3d isn't worth it either lol

[sick coral]

people told me its performance equivelant to my existing 9900k

[sick coral]

what is worth it then

[full fossil]

Same thing with the 5800x3d

[sick coral]

should probably clarify im looking specifically at gaming performance

[full fossil]

U wont be able to upgrade when on a tight budget rlly bcuz u already bought an expensive cpu

So must stuff is just equal speed

[sick coral]

wdym

[full fossil]

Better cpus than the 9900k cost more lol

[sick coral]

yeah obviously

[full fossil]

So not worth upgrading for like a small % difference and spending extra money

[manic torrent]

No, it's more.

[sick coral]

im going to sell my 9900k

[full fossil]

Go for something that released recently but goes faster than the 9900k like 13600k or smthing

Sooubway cookie hits diff

[manic torrent]

The issue is that the 9900k was an absolutely banging CPU at the time

[full fossil]

Well yeah but in practice basically same thing

[full fossil]

Now those are meme gens lol

[sick coral]

yeahbut the problem is there are no z390 itx mobos and i just recieved my itx case

shouldve thought more before buying this

[manic torrent]

Ehhh, depends what you're doing. Also depends on your video card etc. I have a 5700x and a 3080ti and basically there's no point upgrading CPU because there is just sfa gains to be had in 4k

Although I am thinking I will get some lower cl ram and improve those 1% lows.

[full fossil]

Today I will be a freshman

Whaddup biatch(es)

[gray pollen]

You just got the case like, within the last 14 days?

[indigo plume]

Thinking of getting a tablet to replace my shitty laptop instead of a new laptop think of getting a tab 8 or something from Samsung

[full fossil]

Android tablets r ass, what laptop ru using rn

[indigo plume]

My laptop is more broken then shitty

I can see the mother aboard from the side from dropping it so many forms

And battery hole is messed lol

[full fossil]

And also keep in mind not all tasks can be done on a tablet so make sure all the apps r on android etc. if you'll go for one

[full fossil]

How did u do that djjdfndddn

[indigo plume]

Dropped it off my bed like 100 times

Been a rough 7 years for this thing

There's pieces missing all over the side

Lol

[gray pollen]

Didn't you say yesterday you were gonna get a Google tablet?

[indigo plume]

Google has tablets?

Wtf

Ight time to cancel youtube premium

They increased price again

[gray pollen]

It was someone else, sry

But yes, they do.

[indigo plume]

Well I've never heard anything about them so doubt they be that great

[stone sparrow]

for £270 3060ti or £290 3070?

[fierce moth]

I gotta buy a rpi pico

[gray pollen]

I mean, they're big pixel phones essentially and everyone I know with a pixel phone loves it. I think the tablet is even called like Pixel G or something.

[indigo plume]

Samsung phones better

[near nymph]

Get the 3070

[gray pollen]

I think we're at the point in phones, where as long as it's flagship, it's about preference.

[indigo plume]

S23 ultra has better display better battery and stuff only thing it might lose in is camera

[dreamy rose]

bad idea buy radeon

[near nymph]

There's no need to jump straight to Radeon. Some people may have a use for a Nvidia card

[bright silo]

Team Red! or something

[dreamy rose]

low budget cards? radeon have you covered, no point going with Nvidia

[near nymph]

Okay and what if someone wants a superior H.264 encoder? What if someone wants to use Nvidia only features?

[dreamy rose]

at this point you arent gonna find playable RT. it doesnt matter.

it is going to change, but the only legit reason to buy nvidia over AMD is CUDA

[indigo plume]

I'm trading in 7900xtx

Was overkill for 1440p lol

Better off saving money and getting lower tier gou

[jaunty compass]

i'm convinced every 9900k owner was a minecraft youtuber

[gray pollen]

So... preferences?

[jaunty compass]

I never see any 9900k deals on ebay even though it's an older chip
they're always overpriced

the people who bought them must still be using them

[manic torrent]

because they were just good

[dull granite]

p p p p
p p p

[gray pollen]

"What if someone wants Nvidia only features?" Names an Nvidia only feature

[jaunty compass]

I can only assume that a lot of the people who bought the 9900k are still using it

[indigo plume]

Trading in xtx so for 1440p I'm thinking either 4070 or 4070 ti

What better

[gray pollen]

Motherboards die faster than CPUs so good bet.

[indigo plume]

For 1440p

[jaunty compass]

the xtx 🗿

[indigo plume]

Overkill brotha

[gray pollen]

Neither. Put the money towards the laptop/tablet

[indigo plume]

That's a 4k GPU

[jaunty compass]

buy a steam deck and a 5700 xt

[indigo plume]

I have a steam deck

[jaunty compass]

buy another

[dreamy rose]

not at low prices

[indigo plume]

Xtx is a waste of money at 1440p

[jaunty compass]

it doesn't have thunderbolt that's impractical but you totally could do it you'd just need to use USB storage

[indigo plume]

It's just not practical to use this at this resolution

[dreamy rose]

Fuck Thunderbolt use OcuLink

[gray pollen]

I bought a 3090 to game at 1080p bc I'm sure I'll need the vram in the future.

[dreamy rose]

removing the SSD you can do that. but have fun i gues

[indigo plume]

Also if I go 4070 I get dlss 3 which is nice

[jaunty compass]

let the deck cook

[indigo plume]

Cuz fsr kinda meh

[dreamy rose]

DLSS irrelevant when FSR works everywhere.

[sick coral]

no

[jaunty compass]

I just play games on my 6600 xt tbh

[indigo plume]

Wdym dlss is better

[jaunty compass]

it still runs everything pretty fine at 1440p

[gray pollen]

All RT is dumb

[indigo plume]

And more games support dlss

[dreamy rose]

doesn't matter if its slightly worse technically. being able to be used anywhere is infinitely more important,

[indigo plume]

Than fsr

Like resident evil pretty sure don't support fsr

[dreamy rose]

with DLSS 3 you lock out the most popular graphics cards.

[indigo plume]

Not my problem since im prob getting 4070

[dreamy rose]

and no that's just BS. if its true any theres maybe a few more at least.

[indigo plume]

Rt is just a tech demo lmao

[dreamy rose]

stupid idea but go ahead waste your money

[indigo plume]

I mean it's better than using at xtx at 1440p

[gray pollen]

How old are you guys? It feels like there's no way a conversation about RT when someone is asking to downgrade their vram is happening between adults.

[indigo plume]

Which I'm returning

Cuz it's overkill

[jaunty compass]

objectively not true

[dreamy rose]

pff. you think that until you realise that more performance is better.

[jaunty compass]

the xtx has more performance and is more better

[indigo plume]

Wdym it's less money

It's like 400 extra dollars

[dreamy rose]

more money WASTED. keep the fuckin XTX man dont be stupid like that.

[indigo plume]

For performance I don't need

I don't need the xtx I don't have 4k monitor

[dreamy rose]

ok. not now. but what about in future then?

[indigo plume]

What are u not getting

I'm not planning on getting 4k

[dreamy rose]

you are the one not getting Amigo.

[gray pollen]

Forget about future. Jedi Survivors launch happened. What happens if a game you want to play has the same problem?

[jaunty compass]

Games have been ballooning in vram consumption recently

[indigo plume]

I don't need 24gb of VRAM

Think it's 24

Maybes 20 idk either way don't need that much

[dreamy rose]

KEEP IT FOR THE FUTURE how hard is it to understand that?

the 7900XTX is gonna do you far better in future and todays titles at 1440P. \

[indigo plume]

Mate MFS had had 1060s for like 10 years I don't need a flag ship to keep for future

[gray pollen]

Jedi Survivor used more than 24 on launch. People can scream unoptimized all they want, but the time is coming, for all of us.

The 1080s people managed to keep for 10 years, only got kept bc of the 11gb vram.

[indigo plume]

It's money better spent else where

[jaunty compass]

That's an unacceptable amount of vram usage

[dreamy rose]

are you a troll or do you actually think this bullshit?

[gray pollen]

And they are now hitting a wall.

[jaunty compass]

I think that's an EA problem

[indigo plume]

I mean I had the 1060 6 GB for like 6 years

And gave it to my brother and he still using it

[jaunty compass]

8 gig cards are hitting a wall and I feel like with the ballooning vram consumption in newer games 12 gig cards are not as far behind as we would like

[gray pollen]

And you're hitting a wall. Vram is literally what the nVidia backlash is for over the 40 series. You don't give up vram if you don't have to.

[dreamy rose]

doesn't matter how long you had a 1060, a card isnt gonna last that long ever again.

[jaunty compass]

Once you run out of vram you're fucked

[gray pollen]

If you need Cuda, you can always go used last gen.

[indigo plume]

Where's ur crystal ball

[jaunty compass]

You go from say
80 fps
To like 12

That's why I had to drop my settings down in RE4R

[indigo plume]

12 VRAM is enough

Don't need 24

[gray pollen]

Not for jedi survivor.

[indigo plume]

Ea bs

[dreamy rose]

Just stay with the 7900XTX, fuck the 400 dollars! its worth way more than 400 having more power around.

[gray pollen]

If you didn't already have it, maybe I would argue this less, but downgrading vram for a brand name is stupid.

[indigo plume]

400 dollars in not just spare change dude

[jaunty compass]

The PS5 and XSX have 16 gigs of shared ram

I feel like that's going to be their upper target; so soon it could not be

[indigo plume]

400 dollars is a fuck ton

[dreamy rose]

just THINK. that card could last you till RDNA 6 at least

[gray pollen]

So go used 3090. I got one for 600.

[indigo plume]

I could almost buy a entire ps5 for 400

[jaunty compass]

The used GPU market is pretty good rn

[gray pollen]

But don't give up vram for a 40 series card.

[jaunty compass]

I'd just go used lmao

[dreamy rose]

doesn't matter what you can buy for 400.

[indigo plume]

No cuz devs still supporting old gen consoles

[dreamy rose]

KEEP THE CARD AROUND

[gray pollen]

I'd rather spend the 400 now for the vram, instead of another 800 in a few years bc I didn't buy enough.

[jaunty compass]

Not if they're smart at this point

[neon mesa]

the thing about 3090 is how power hungry it is though

[dreamy rose]

^

[indigo plume]

If they support only new gen they lose money

Less customers

[neon mesa]

decent is understatement

the 3090 eats as much as a 4090 with worse transient
meaning you have to have a good one

and 3090s are no where near 400 yet

[jaunty compass]

Me when 6900 xt

[gray pollen]

For half the price, the kwh usage in my area, it doesn't matter. I have a laptop for my daily driving tasks. I haven't used the 3090 once in the month I've owned it. I've had adult responsibilities.

My sff modular 1000w corsair psu was 158

[jaunty compass]

Me omw to plug a 3090 into the cx 750w

[near nymph]

I'm praying all my accounts can buy Eras tour tickets

[neon mesa]

with something like a 4070ti it's a slot in upgrade because of how power sipping it is

with a 3090 it is most likely a lot of additional steps

[gray pollen]

I didn't realize it used that much less than the 7900xtx

[neon mesa]

if you want VRAM just get AMD at that point

[dreamy rose]

but its nothing to replace a 7900XTX with. such an idiotic idea.

[neon mesa]

we're comparing it to a 3090

[gray pollen]

He has a 7900xtx, we're trying to convince him to keep it

[neon mesa]

wait, why would you switch from the XTX

[gray pollen]

Exactly

[dreamy rose]

"i dont use 4K"

[gray pollen]

12gb vram is overkill

[jaunty compass]

The human eye can't see more than 240p 20 fps

[indigo plume]

its over kill

[gray pollen]

Nah, he said vram too.

[neon mesa]

just keep it

[indigo plume]

I dont need xtx for 1440p

[gray pollen]

He wants a 4070

[neon mesa]

it will eventually become not overkill as tech progress

[dreamy rose]

Doesnt matter if its overkill now.

[indigo plume]

its a waste of money

yall are awful for finacial advice

[dreamy rose]

is not.

[jaunty compass]

You literally already bought it

[gray pollen]

Dollar value decreases over time, money spent now is saved later, inflation

[neon mesa]

reselling your old GPU is literally money going poof

[indigo plume]

mfs are basicly saying just waste 400 dollars

[neon mesa]

unless you can sell that XTX at the price you buy it at

[indigo plume]

its not reselling its returning to store

[full fossil]

Thats not how it works tho

[dreamy rose]

well to be quite honest with you, you are awful at logic and listening to reason if you think this,

[gray pollen]

We're saying that 400 will be 800 in a few yeats

[neon mesa]

oh so it's still in return window

[indigo plume]

yes

[jaunty compass]

Unless you can go return it to the store for what you paid, selling that 7900 XTX is burning money

[dull granite]

ye

[indigo plume]

ive only had for 5 days

[jaunty compass]

A 4070 is also burning money; go buy a used gpu

[full fossil]

but it wont be

[neon mesa]

i am waiting for used 4070s to exists

[dull granite]

an

[indigo plume]

I dont buy used

[dull granite]

why why

[indigo plume]

used to sus

[gray pollen]

Then you're contributing needlessly to ewaste

[full fossil]

used is too risky

[jaunty compass]

Then stop complaining about wasting money

[indigo plume]

idk what mfs did to thir gpu

[neon mesa]

mfw i bought 4 used GPUs and all of them is fine

[full fossil]

no

[indigo plume]

could jsut not even work

[full fossil]

id rather spend less on my bills tho

[neon mesa]

buyer protection exists

[full fossil]

im not buying a gpu that I dont know the history of lol

[gray pollen]

Just open the card up and refurbish it

[dull granite]

i run a 4 year old used RX 5700 and it's still fine

[indigo plume]

I use ebay

i mean kijiji

[gray pollen]

And Amazon's renewed comes with 30 return plus warranty

[indigo plume]

and facebook marketplace

[dull granite]

macebook farketplace?

[jaunty compass]

Well, Use something with buyer protection

[dreamy rose]

this mans logic is about as broken as Cyberpunk 1.0 and he doesnt realise it.

[indigo plume]

never use ebay

[jaunty compass]

...why?

[indigo plume]

I just find used stuff sus

[jaunty compass]

[gray pollen]

I just bought my card off Amazon. Plugged it in to make sure it worked, then opened it up and refurbished it.

[gray pollen]

He likes to make ewaste

[indigo plume]

idc about ewaste

[gray pollen]

Clearly

[jaunty compass]

I love micro plastics

[dreamy rose]

thats the problem, Chief

[gray pollen]

You also don't really care about saving money.

[indigo plume]

if i didnt care about money I would keep xtx

[gray pollen]

If you really cared about money, you'd go used

[indigo plume]

last time I used ebay I have broken 3ds

[gleaming oyster]

used refurbished can be good value

[dreamy rose]

"you lot give bad financial advice" proceeds to pour money down the drain

[indigo plume]

so i dont use ebay

[jaunty compass]

The best value GPU rn is apparently the Rx 6800

[gray pollen]

So don't use ebay, use Amazon

[indigo plume]

so ur saying anyone who buys new products are wasting money

[full fossil]

not wasting money on a gpu someone jerks to

[dreamy rose]

if you didnt not care about money you'd KEEP the XTX.

[indigo plume]

im pretty sure most ppl buy new vs used

[full fossil]

they do cuz buying used tech is dumb

[gray pollen]

No, there are definitely reasons to buy new, but you probably don't have any besides "used is sus" which will dissipate once you realize how great used and open box are, not just for your wallet but your carbon footprint.

[indigo plume]

yes wasting 400 dollars

[gray pollen]

Most people buy new because they aren't tech savvy.

[full fossil]

no one sells a gpu they just bought as used

[jaunty compass]

Do you think they made a thermal paste thirst trap or something?

[full fossil]

its always some old garbage

[full fossil]

yes

[dreamy rose]

wasting 400 dollars is getting rid of the XTX and going for an inferior card, your shits used kid. you arent getting Retail price.

[indigo plume]

looking at amazon xtx 1500 cad

4070ti only like 1000

[gray pollen]

Nearly every piece of tech I own wasn't purchased new. If you want to waste money to chase a brand name, just do it. Don't ask for validation, you're gonna do it anyway.

[indigo plume]

so its more like 500

[dreamy rose]

this take of yours is dogshit stupid. i refuse to believe anyone actually believes this logic makes sense at all.

[indigo plume]

mate it has nothing to do with a brand name

[dreamy rose]

i never said it did.

[gray pollen]

Money isn't your motivator here or you'd stay AMD, they are still the more affordable maker. So.

[indigo plume]

I want nivida cuz I dont like amd softwear

[jaunty compass]

Nobody thinks you should return the XTX; but really you don't care about what anyone says so why are you asking

[indigo plume]

relive dont work

[gray pollen]

And there it is

[indigo plume]

shadowplay I never had a issue with

[gray pollen]

So don't ask us for validation. Everyone here disagrees, just do what you want.

[indigo plume]

I never wanted validation

[dreamy rose]

oh pulling out the "AMD Bad" card now are we? Why?

[indigo plume]

i never said amd is bad

[jaunty compass]

Then why would you ask when you knew what you were going to do to begin with

[indigo plume]

i said that relive dont work

[gray pollen]

What were you trying to say?

[unkempt widget]

wtf is happening

[indigo plume]

like every time i tried using relive it would give black screen so idk what u want me to say

[unkempt widget]

why are people arguing here again

[dreamy rose]

so were you just making up a stupid cover story to try and get out of looking stupid being wrong about AMD?

[jaunty compass]

Someone looking for validation on being about to downgrade from a 7900 XTX to a RTX 4070

[indigo plume]

no

[gray pollen]

We want you to say nothing because this is a pointless conversation at this point.

[dreamy rose]

not buying it mate.

[indigo plume]

well originally I was asking if I should get 4070 of 4070 ti for 1440p

[unkempt widget]

couldn't care less tbh, if someone is enough of an idiot to do that, let them

[gray pollen]

Maybe tell us what game you're gonna play on whatever you buy without mentioning what you're buying bc this conversation topic is dumb.

[indigo plume]

but no one answer and mfs got mad at me cuz I was getting rid of xtx

[dreamy rose]

people do anything to avoid appearing stupid, even if it makes em look dumber.

[indigo plume]

I just wanted to get one of those 2

but turned int argument to keep xtx

[gray pollen]

Doesn't matter, it's a downgrade in performance so what are you gonna be playing?

[jaunty compass]

Any good action RPGs that are deck verified come out recently ?

[unkempt widget]

just get the 4070 and shut up

[dreamy rose]

because its objectively a better idea than loosing money

[jaunty compass]

Baldur's gate 3 is turn based so I'm passing on it

[indigo plume]

iots not losing money

im getting 400 dollars back

[unkempt widget]

4070

[dreamy rose]

do you not understand how value works? at all?

[unkempt widget]

ti is more expensive than better

[indigo plume]

ok thankyou

[gray pollen]

I was gonna get into the franchise last year but got sidetracked so I am v excited abt the new game. Trying to wait for next month and not put it on a credit card.

[indigo plume]

I dont like turn based either but I love baulders gate 3

it feels much smoother than any other turn based ive played

[jaunty compass]

I'm on sort of an immersive sim kick rn

[dreamy rose]

i mean we cant stop you returning your card. but everyones gonna laugh at you.

[gray pollen]

Just drop it

[unkempt widget]

why do you guys care

it's non of your business that someone's making a questionable decision over their gpu

[jaunty compass]

I've never played it

I meant like Deus ex or something

[dreamy rose]

i'm just baffled anyone has such logic in the first place.

[gray pollen]

You can also drop it. We already moved on to rpgs

[full fossil]

star citizen ain't immersive wdym

[jaunty compass]

Great series full of great games

Also you misunderstood what the genre immersive sim is lmao

It's a subgenre of games

[dreamy rose]

srsly where do you find logic so fucking flawed?

[jaunty compass]

No, I don't think so

[unkempt widget]

or you could forget about it and save yourself a headache

[indigo plume]

isnt baulders gate CRPG

[gray pollen]

Aiight, I'm gonna go adult and come back later when maybe other adults are here. Hope u guys are enjoying ur summer

[jaunty compass]

The problem with immersive sims from a dev standpoint is that they're expensive as fuck to make

[unkempt widget]

i'm not enjoying my summer, i wanna go back to school :(

[indigo plume]

Im not enjoying summer im just working long ass hours

work like 55 hrs last week

[jaunty compass]

Dishonored, BioShock 1 and 2, cruelty squad, thief, and deux ex are all immersive sims

[dreamy rose]

god i hate it so much. so fuckin stupid.

[jaunty compass]

It's a subgenre that focuses super heavily on giving the player a ton of choice

[indigo plume]

umm does 4070 run hot cuz I dont have AC in my house

[unkempt widget]

you don't need to

[full fossil]

it does

[unkempt widget]

no it doesn't

[indigo plume]

damn guess I need a new fan

[full fossil]

do people really get AC over a gpu

[indigo plume]

to keep me cool

[dreamy rose]

or you can keep the 7900XTX for another 6 years.

[jaunty compass]

Like instead of killing an enemy quietly or loudly you could sneak around them through vents or use an ability to go over them through rafters or something

[indigo plume]

drop that

[dreamy rose]

i'm just giving you your options.

[unkempt widget]

or you could stop trying to bash your head into a wall

[indigo plume]

im not gunna entertain that argument any longer

[jaunty compass]

Something like that but on the scale of the whole game

[indigo plume]

and u should jsut let things go

[full fossil]

I would think that way of flight sims too

[indigo plume]

wonder If i still get free starfield code

[jaunty compass]

Typically the world gives you a ton of choices and the game is very dynamic; feeling like it could exist without your character being there.

They have a ton of detail but are a total money pit to develop and usually don't sell very well

[indigo plume]

well Baulders gate 3 has sold very well lol

[dreamy rose]

i just think at first you should realize how stupid that logic is and save yourself the pain in future.

[jaunty compass]

It's not an immersive Sim

[indigo plume]

idk what an immersive sim is then

its really good

[jaunty compass]

Immersive Sims are usually also first person shooters but not always

[unkempt widget]

ah my favourite immersive sim

[indigo plume]

I think you shouldnt just insult ppl and respect ppls decisions even if u dont agree with them

[unkempt widget]

counterstrike condition zero deleted scenes

[dreamy rose]

VR is immersive sim. technically.

[indigo plume]

when does cs2 come out

[dreamy rose]

summer

[unkempt widget]

i heard somewhere september 23rd

[indigo plume]

caint wait

[jaunty compass]

VR chat is an immersive sim

[indigo plume]

cant*

[dreamy rose]

Cesspool simulator.

[full fossil]

VR is still overrated tbh

[full fossil]

For now sadly it's garbage

[jaunty compass]

There are like 8 good VR games and that makes it worth owning this $300 headset

(I bought a quest 2 lol)

[indigo plume]

vr is just a gimmick

[full fossil]

So immersive that i'll have neck pain in 1 hour and spine surgery in 5 years

[indigo plume]

same with RT

[jaunty compass]

I wouldn't call it just a gimmick

[dreamy rose]

I'm sorry, i can respect peoples opinions just fine, but i give criticism where its due. and it was Overdue right there. a complete flip on common sense to say the least.

[jaunty compass]

It does allow for gaming experiences that aren't possible with a traditional setup

[full fossil]

I think the quest 2 was 1000% better if they wouldnt stack all the heavy stuff at the front lol

vr will only make sense once it's usable for productivity

yeah same tbh

[dreamy rose]

you just gotta be in the right place.

[full fossil]

then I think thered be finally a reason to consider it

and even then boomers wont use this anyways

[dreamy rose]

dont look at Apple OR Facebook for that.

[jaunty compass]

finally, game of the year

[indigo plume]

vr gaming i just get sweaty

[jaunty compass]

I mean; i guess I get how these are immersive sims

[dreamy rose]

yea because you point your only source of cold air at your PC Not you. also VR is Physical.

[jaunty compass]

this is way more what i'd call an immersive sim, though

[indigo plume]

its the leather frome the headset mostly

[jaunty compass]

leather- what headset are you using?

[dreamy rose]

Gucci facial interface

[indigo plume]

maybe not leather idk what that material that goes around the eyes and nose part on the quest is

[jaunty compass]

has anyone played Shadows of Doubt

[indigo plume]

that black like rubbery part

[fierce moth]

the only two vr games i play is h3vr and vtol vr

[jaunty compass]

it looks really good but i haven't picked it up yet

I'm going to play I expect you to die 3 when it comes out

[dreamy rose]

400 dollar waste of money which will self destruct in a year.

[indigo plume]

ive played 2 vr games beat saber and some left for dead game

[jaunty compass]

I really like the second game and am excited for the third

the opening for the 2nd one was a banger

[indigo plume]

beat saber was fun for a while

[full fossil]

beat saber is such a low effort game and the devs are rich now lol

[fierce moth]

h3vr is even better with mods imo

[indigo plume]

untill every custom song that ppl make is for ppl who are way better than me

[dreamy rose]

i personally dont see it. but i've never played so theres that.

[full fossil]

well yeah but beat saber is like 0 effort

[jaunty compass]

seriously this opening is a fucking banger
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQE7jf9LCfk

this game is a vr spy thriller and it's great

[dreamy rose]

doesnt describe PaRappa at all.

[fierce moth]

and vtol vr is pretty much the only decent vr flight sim

[dreamy rose]

i found that series recently. banger games

[full fossil]

something to play to vomit

[jaunty compass]

that's just the opening; the actual gameplay is a VR escape room basically but it's set to the backdrop of a james bond style spy thriller

[dreamy rose]

you never could hate that face. that paper thin, flat, rapping dog face.

[jaunty compass]

the first was good but the second was really fucking good and the third is about to come out

[fierce moth]

its getting time to clean my keeb again

[jaunty compass]

I will tear apart all these works of art that diguise you

[dreamy rose]

ppl don't know there was a Parappa Anime.

[full fossil]

why did u buy bruhs.xyz

[fierce moth]

cause i can

i dont even have a web server rn

[dreamy rose]

iirc there was like 30, can be found Subbed on youtube if you're intrested

[fierce moth]

like 20 bucks a year

[full fossil]

Yeah I just checked lmao

[full fossil]

Ur so lucky wtf 5 letter website so cheap

[jaunty compass]

it's because of .xyz

[fierce moth]

i originally went with godaddy but i switched over to google domains

[full fossil]

Well yeah but then u can have bruhs.app

etc. and it's good as hell

[dreamy rose]

though it seems some of the later episodes lack the subtitles, but i watched it all in 2019 its probably changed by then.

[full fossil]

when I tried to get a 6 letter site .ai it was $100k

[fierce moth]

mainly cause of closer integration with google workspace

[dreamy rose]

maybe. i'm not sure.

oh cool, youtube isnt the only source, nice.

[jaunty compass]

The only anime I need is the beyblade anime

Which was uploaded officially to YouTube for some reason

[dreamy rose]

i dont really watch TV/ movies anymore tbh.

[jaunty compass]

I'm not complaining I'm just surprised

Something weird about the metal fight beyblade anime is that the main character actually sounds less good as it goes on

His voice gets higher and higher pitched as the anime progresses

At the start he actually has some range and sounds like not a five-year-old

[dreamy rose]

the miraculous slowly shrinking man

[fierce moth]

did MS or chrome bork external security key support cause i cant use my yubikey on my cloudflare account

[dreamy rose]

did you try firefox?

[fierce moth]

cant be arsed booting into linux rn

[dreamy rose]

there you go, wont get your answer until you do.

[fierce moth]

nah windows just borked it

ill add it with my phone

[dreamy rose]

typical MS, breaking all kinds of shit. and people say i spew bullshit about Windows all the time...

[west niche]

god i love when i install windows on a separate drive and forget to unplug my other nvme and so windows just replaces the other nvme’s bootloader

god forbid they let me pick where to install the bootloader like on Linux

[dreamy rose]

https://i.redd.it/7hscbs4ddel91.png

[fierce moth]

might transfer my domain to cloudflare

yep might actually do that cause good ole google domains got sold

[dreamy rose]

how much do the clouds charge for a fare?

[fierce moth]

theres a free tier

then theres a pro sub for 20 bucks a month

[dreamy rose]

must be like a super slow airbus then?

[fierce moth]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Domains

got sold to squarespace

[dreamy rose]

.zip sites

[fierce moth]

ive used their free tier before, it isnt bad

[gilded forge]

and .mov

[dreamy rose]

google is unhinged for doing this.

[fierce moth]

might actually set up a webserver

but its just a web panel for my tech

[trim robin]

man i love windows, like why wolud to be able to easly say, hey i dont want my touchpad to disable when i type, like why in the world wolud anyone need to do that

[crystal willow]

Just turn it off, thats also part of why i love windows

You dont have another choice i guess

[trim robin]

yea its just not there

like linux oh just go to settings and its right there but nope, windows just says f me

[dusky jacinth]

Windows doing this just makes me frustrated.

[crystal willow]

Like just turn it off

[tiny mica]

What should a pc with a i7 7700 with nzxt kraken x aio cooling, asus rog strix rtx 2070 8 gb oc gaming ṭrio, 16 gb 2400 MHz ram, 2x 1tb hdd and 512 gb ssd, 650 watt psu and lian li full tower with 4 rgb fans will be worth ?

[trim robin]

well it not there to turn off

[civic mason]

Anyone else kinda surprised that there isn’t a default way to view your steps on the face of your Apple Watch? I was expecting something like fitbits thing where if gives you a number but doesn’t look like you can

[trim robin]

plus windows makes me reset my password every little bit but thats just something being werid, so theres that too thats anowing

[zinc beacon]

uhh i dont think u can discuss this here

[crystal willow]

"Open the Settings app. Navigate to Devices > Touchpad. Step 2: In the Touchpad sensitivity section, select Low sensitivity option from the drop-down box to disable the touchpad while typing"

[tiny mica]

Why not

[wise tundra]

Getting three servers for free. Each have dual Opteron 248 from 2004 but still. I can still reuse the HDD backplanes and the chassis.

[crystal willow]

From facebook marketplace?

[trim robin]

its not there

[wise tundra]

A local marketplace app

Kinda like Graigslist but not and way better

(for my Finnish friends, Tori.fi)

[crystal willow]

Ok granny, i want you to open your computer, btw are you using win 11 or 10?

No but just search touchpad in the search and you will find the settings there @trim robin

[candid void]

does anyone have any alternative to the default mail app?
i’ve been using the default ios mail app for a long time now, and i don’t have any issues with it. but i’m just going to think that there are better alternatives?
i’ve already tried spark, and im not liking it that much. any other recommendations are more than appreciated!!
please @ me

[sage parcel]

Anyone tried a 6bit + frc monitor

[full fossil]

Do anybody know if there is an AI that I can use to fast read all the subtitles contained in a video in search for a word? Otherwise I have to watch the whole thing

[graceful burrow]

Why would you need an ai for that lol

If you're just talking youtube there's a chrome extension for that lmao

[tired glade]

So, summarizing text ai?

[full fossil]

I'm talking about live streams with overlaid chat. The text is compressed along the image. like movies with embedded subtitles that you can't turn off

[graceful burrow]

Youd need a really fast ocr program for that

[tired glade]

Most likely you can find something for that,but it will be combination of techs

But yea,that already possible

[sage parcel]

Do you have the files locally or online

[full fossil]

online or I can download the video

[sage parcel]

Downloading would make it much easier tbh

[ionic abyss]

OK I am upset with amazon I just paid 70$ for a 8bitdo ultimate Bluetooth controller 2 weeks ago only to find then on woot for$18

Today

[graceful burrow]

Sucks

[ionic abyss]

Yes

[gray pollen]

Buy from woot, return to Amazon.

[ionic abyss]

I'll just be annoyed I have a 5 year protection plan on the 9ne from Amazon

[gray pollen]

What?

[graceful burrow]

People actually pay for those?

[wise tundra]

18$ vs 70$ with 5 year protection
Hmmmmm

[gray pollen]

People like me, who break everything.

[wise tundra]

You could buy 4 of those for the same price

[gray pollen]

If he bought protection from Amazon, he would still get it. He's keeping the controller with that serial number.

You keep the open one and return the new one.

The third market insurance company won't care.

[graceful burrow]

You don't think Amazon would notice that the controller attached to the service would say returned? They're definitely linked in the system

There's no way they wouldn't have that info lol

[gray pollen]

Amazon doesn't sell insurance, it's reseller insurance.

[graceful burrow]

They'd still definitely have that info lmao

[gray pollen]

I've done it with phones, they don't care.

[graceful burrow]

Me when I commit insurance fraud

[gray pollen]

No they don't. The purchase isn't what verifies the insurance. The insurance is on the handset, it's why it's sold and refunded separately.

[graceful burrow]

Me when I tell other people to commit insurance fraud

[gray pollen]

Just because you don't understand buying insurance on a product, not a *purchase, doesnt make it insurance fraud. It's return fraud, which isn't illegal, and considering you're giving them the exact same product, it's not even immoral.

[full fossil]

just realised I got it reversed. What I need is an AI to listen to a video and generate the subtitles

[gray pollen]

I think DaVinci resolve does that. But idk if it's the paid version or not.

[graceful burrow]

There probably more than a few that do that

[tired glade]

There are plug ins for browser for that

[graceful burrow]

Voice recognition has gotten real easy to do now

hi

[full fossil]

I hate my laptop

The r and 5 key fell off

ill prob get gaming pc soon and retire my gaming laptop

[rugged lance]

Was there ever a forum post that listed which of the displayport cables LTT tested were actually good/worth??

[glossy vapor]

hello

[full fossil]

no no, it reads the text beforehand from youtube (as its also GODDAMN DELAYED) and then you watch it delayed for like 5 secs to have it in real time

[graceful burrow]

It sounds like a you issue hoss

[trim robin]

First off, I'm not old and yes I know how to find the settings. The issue is the driver dose not alow a setting for it it, it's not in the settings menu or the TouchPad software

[sly burrow]

i just sold a guy a TV and he asked if it will get the local TV channels. i dont mind explaining things to people but when im trying it sell something that shits stressful when they dont understand

Hi

I had a guy ask me if my charger that I was using worked

The blush on his face when I asked how I would use it if it was broken was p worth it

[ionic abyss]

$85 Mystery Desktop - $85.00 - Free shipping for Prime members https://computers.woot.com/offers/85-mystery-desktop-3?utm_medium=share&utm_source=app

Is that worth testing

Lol the pc can have upto a i7 10th gen from what I got from support

16gb ram at most

[crystal willow]

Sounds like a scam

[gray pollen]

What was the lowest?

Tbh don't do it bc you're going by best

[ionic abyss]

I3 4th gen is lowest spec with 8gb

[finite cloud]

i think i can find a computer with similar specs for free somewhere

[gray pollen]

Okay, what about the other parts?

If it's got a newish 750w non proprietary psu, def worth it.

[ionic abyss]

Well I suspect it's all Dell pc returns no matter what

Well dell/hp

[gray pollen]

Do they use proprietary psu header things? Would you use the case? If not don't bother unless you're over 18 and like to gamble.

[ionic abyss]

Is a fire 7 tablet for $14 a ok tablet?

[finite cloud]

damn this thing has DDR3

[ionic abyss]

4th gen i3 us a OK starter gamer pc

[wet wharf]

for 14$ it's probably worth it

sounds kinda cheap

a very good deal infact

[finite cloud]

its 85 tho

[ionic abyss]

85 is cheap for a usable pc

[graceful burrow]

4th gen i3 is worthless, only the i7's even remotely hold up nowadays lol

[finite cloud]

yeah its usable, wouldnt game on it though. it doesnt even have a gpu

[graceful burrow]

And just barely

[tired glade]

Isn't 4gen i3 2 cores without hyperthreading?

[wet wharf]

what was this? i thought it was 14$

[dusky osprey]

can 100% find an optiplex that pricethats better

[fierce moth]

[full fossil]

[fierce moth]

I'm too focused with getting retro consoles than actually upgrading my pc

[tepid dagger]

guys is my i7-11 gen laptop with 8gb of ram enough for running yuzu and play botw?

[dusky osprey]

you might want it throw in an extra stick of ram but probably

[viscid magnet]

[dusty rune]

do you just have a flir camera laying around?

[tepid dagger]

And logging in with the Google account is secure?

And everything is safe?

[eager notch]

More like it's in my phone, the top camera is a thermal camera

Don't ask how I took this photo.

[dusty rune]

thats honestly neat

does it have a headphone jack

[eager notch]

Nope

[dusty rune]

so close to perfection..

[eager notch]

I was on the headphone jack train for a long time until I got a cheap pair of truely wireless Bluetooth headphones and I like them significantly more than dealing with a cord

[dusty rune]

fair

[eager notch]

I have 4 phones that have headphone jacks and 2 that don't and I still only use the 2 that don't

[finite cloud]

oh whoa you have a CAT phone. i havent seen anybody with one before

[gilded forge]

timer on camera, holding mirror above phone

[eager notch]

Yeah, other than having built in thermal, it's not a particularly great phone

[finite cloud]

its not? ah, that sucks

[eager notch]

I mean it's fine and it's far from the worst phone I've used

[gilded forge]

to be fair, I don't see Alcatel phones anymore, but those are shit that come cheaply with straight talk plans

[eager notch]

Nope, like this

Please don't ask how I took this photo

[full fossil]

How did you take the photo?

[dusty rune]

it just keeps on going

[gray pollen]

Whyweren't we supposed to ask?

[heady hazel]

I have a quick question

[full fossil]

[eager notch]

Here you go

[full fossil]

Sick

[eager notch]

Please don't ask how I took this photo

[heady hazel]

Which one of these is better?

[full fossil]

[gray pollen]

You need to have at least 6 phones for me to finally react.

Or be younger than 25.

Wait, 6 phones AND younger than 25.

[eager notch]

Unfortunately I can only do one of those as I have 8 phones but I'm 26

6 of which work

[gray pollen]

That's just existing and taking care of your stuff lmfao

But still impressed bc I can't even with insurance 😂

[eager notch]

Pics or it didn't happen you say

[pliant karma]

[eager notch]

Another level you say

Please don't ask how I took this photo

It's an iPhone 4 but it's broken

And it's tiny as hell

Use sun screen

Or wear real shoes

[dusty rune]

thats hilarious oh my lord

That's my natural dewey glow thank you very much

[gray pollen]

Okay, u got me, I choked switching to the server and scrolling down thru the photos

[fierce moth]

Lifx has got to be the best smart light brand Ive used

[vapid crest]

better than hue?

[fierce moth]

yeah, lifx bulbs get brighter

and cost about the same if you compare both colour bulbs

nvm lifx is way cheaper

[vapid crest]

how much brighter?

[fierce moth]

99 bucks on the colour hue bulb and you only get 802 lumens, and 67.95 for the colour lifx bulbs and you get 1200 lumens

and you dont have to pay for a hue hub

australian pricing btw

[near nymph]

My LiFX bulbs keep shitting the bed

[vapid crest]

yeah, I've got quite a few hue but I mostly got the higher ones since it just lights up the room more

[fierce moth]

i never had a problem with lifx bulbs

still got my first one i got back in 2019

[vapid crest]

I don't mind the hub. Its easy enough

[near nymph]

I was getting em for free so I can't complain lol

[fierce moth]

and while philips does a hue lightstrip for 259 aud for 2 metres, with lifx you get 2 metres for 125 aud

and you don't even strictly need the lifx app

as they can integrate with home assistant and has an open API

i mean you will need the app to set it up but other than that you can abandon it

[vapid crest]

sounds nice. Though I already have the hue ecosystem now. Its not cheap but it does seem to work well. For a few years already now
