because were a menace

Aw yeah. Working in the innerish suburbs!

[jaunty compass]

Finally

[vapid smelt]

the best controller ever made

[brave lodge]

Gif or jif

[wraith sonnet]

what in gods name

[brave lodge]

What the shit

[wraith sonnet]

???

this still makes very little sense

ah yes because that makes sense

I feel like some asrock rep thinks I must hate them, the answer is no I don't but 99% of your phantom gaming products are dumb as hell

somehow not the ugliest a770

[brave lodge]

That looks cool

[tepid jasper]

that award goes to the bifrost

[wraith sonnet]

yeah

[tepid jasper]

🤧

[vapid smelt]

ugly af

[manic torrent]

You could say jif. You'd be wrong, but you could say it.

[manic torrent]

Why? If you aren't wired, it's a good (or at least better) solution

[fierce moth]

Picking up some cds at jaycar

[wraith sonnet]

It might be but I'm concerned about quite literally doubling the amount of cables in my setup

[brave lodge]

“Jif” mfs going to hell after greeting “jod”

THANK YOU

Wow it's hardware bob

Hi hardware bob

[tardy terrace]

Bob is good.

[wary summit]

Guys. and Gals.

Imma buy a 1998 Toyota Supra for $10,000

[gray pollen]

Ill have a whole cig for ya, I'm a gross ass chain smoker 🙃 u having some cider?

[tardy terrace]

I'm so predictable

[gray pollen]

I feel like I'm just talking to myself at this point

Bc ur not the only one.

[gray pollen]

Why are cables concerning?

[fierce moth]

2nd best controller is unironically the wii u gamepad

[finite cloud]

so the monitor becomes a wifi antenna...huh. its dumb but sort of neat at the same time

i thought at first the monitor had wifi built in like a smart TV

[wispy marsh]

There's probably dozens of millions of people using such a product today

AIOs and iMacs

[finite cloud]

yeah thats basially a smart monitor lol

[wraith sonnet]

the only phantom gaming products I ever really consider are their ITX motherboards typically fairly unique features, considering most of the time the unique feature is thunderbolt it kinda defeats the point of a one cable solution for me

[jaunty compass]

Speaking of

I replaced my Wii u gamepad battery

[wraith sonnet]

steam controller*

third is the wiiu gamepad followed by the steam deck

[full fossil]

I say flip off to my doctor cuz he gave me ouchi ouchi 👿

[wispy marsh]

Did the repair services have a wiiu wiiu wiiu siren?

[wraith sonnet]

what on gods green earth

what kinda voodoo magic did you do

[finite cloud]

Steam Deck prototype

[wraith sonnet]

there is no way that's actually what they did

[fierce moth]

🫡

[finite cloud]

To find out how i did it ||I looked up a video of the Big Picture interface and paused it||

[wraith sonnet]

fucking got me

[finite cloud]

now if i actually did find a way to install holo on there that would be funny

[fierce moth]

Got the pico I need to mod a customers gamecube

[wraith sonnet]

if someone did hack it together though it probably would be the best mod ever

I'm gonna check ebay...

[strange elk]

Imma run holo on a device much less powerful than the switch

[finite cloud]

someone already did

[strange elk]

Sounds exciting

[finite cloud]

https://youtu.be/64hHqChhBVw

[jaunty compass]

The wii u has a version of moonlight @wraith sonnet

[wraith sonnet]

[jaunty compass]

if you have a modded wii u, you can check it out

[strange elk]

I was being sarcastic in both statements

[wraith sonnet]

I'm not tearing apart a working gamepad for this jank

[finite cloud]

fair

wasnt there a linux mod for the wii at some point?

[jaunty compass]

there's a version of linux for the Wii U already it's just kind of shit

[finite cloud]

perfect thats all i need

[jaunty compass]

and the wii u is powerpc based so idk if steam will even run

[wraith sonnet]

don't know I'm genuinely going to try and put a different mobo in it

[strange elk]

Powerpc jesus

[jaunty compass]

someone made a raspberry pi wii u gamepad mod a while back and it was quite cool

[finite cloud]

now i remember why macos used to run on there

[wraith sonnet]

probably not a steam deck board but maybe a nucalike?

[jaunty compass]

https://sudomod.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1607

[finite cloud]

that is pretty cool

[strange elk]

Sudomod. Havent seen them in a bit. Kinda stopped caring after mintypi v3

[jaunty compass]

I have a spare wii u gamepad in a drawer, so i'm considering doing a project like this eventually

[strange elk]

Also I need that gamepad if I get a Wii u

[wraith sonnet]

okay but why would you do it to the windwaker gamepad those ones are actually rare

[jaunty compass]

they did it because it's a special edition zelda gamepad and it looks cool

[strange elk]

Its a shell anyway

Worst case, spare parts and they are experienced anyway

[gray pollen]

I feel like u answered ur own question

[jaunty compass]

I hope some developer eventually makes a way for a normal PC to use the gamepad directly

the gamepad uses a variation of 802.11n to communicate to the console so it's not like it's proprietary hardware

there's already a web server program thing to do it but it still needs the console i think

[finite cloud]

it would be cool to have the gamepad as a controller/extra display

[wraith sonnet]

[finite cloud]

nah might be too big

[jaunty compass]

the web server doesn't do video though

[wraith sonnet]

if I hack off part of the board it could work

[jaunty compass]

way too big

[finite cloud]

what about like an intel nuc board

[wraith sonnet]

too power hungry

well, is there one based of 13th gen MOBILE?

[finite cloud]

amd equivalent of that?

nah i think nuc died

[wraith sonnet]

I want thunderbolt as an option

[jaunty compass]

i feel like you're overestimating the size of the wii u gamepad

[gray pollen]

Asus picked them up

[wraith sonnet]

nah that's why I am suggesting hacking off part of the board

[finite cloud]

i dont remember how big that thing is ngl

[full fossil]

Not very big tbh

[jaunty compass]

Sodimm for scale

[finite cloud]

i was wrong it exists

[full fossil]

10 x 6 x 2 inches

[wraith sonnet]

maybe a 12th gen tongfang laptop mainboard?

[finite cloud]

no need to flex on us jeez

[jaunty compass]

what?

[full fossil]

I will instead use the spacebar for scale

you can't make me use sodimm in any way shape or form

[finite cloud]

laptops: "bonjour"

old mac mini: "buenos noches"

[full fossil]

bucciarati: "arrivederci"

[wraith sonnet]

I have a gamepad... I don't need scale

[jaunty compass]

okay it's called libDRC

https://github.com/thefloppydriver/pc2drc
this is the most recent thing of it i found

it's linux only though and seems dead

it still needs the console itself and was being updated to no longer need the console but they haven't updated it

the developer is still alive

i reached out on reddit and they replied

[dreamy rose]

i would put a steam deck in there honestly

[jaunty compass]

yeah......the deck's hardware wouldn't fit

[dreamy rose]

Wii U? no. Steam Deck.

[tardy terrace]

my glass

[fierce moth]

Also got my ps1 memory card

[indigo plume]

i remeber when amd was the cheap cpu option

now feels like intel and amd dont got much diff in prices lol

and even more expensiven than intel

[shut ember]

public chat

[full fossil]

why is there a folder named linux on my windows

[fierce moth]

cause you have something linux related?

[manic torrent]

Because someone or something made a folder called Linux, or renamed one that was there to that.

[fierce moth]

Retro

Yes I do have audio cds

[full fossil]

nuh uh

[fierce moth]

Mostly for testing

[full fossil]

no?

theres just a folder

under my network tab named linux

and theres nothing in it

[trail terrace]

hey who can i talk to if i want to sell info about a tech leak?

[dreamy rose]

go talk to Gamer Meld discord, not here

[trail terrace]

what the devil is gamer meld discord?

id prefer LTT as they're literally the only place I go to for tech stuff, don't really know who else to ask about it

[dreamy rose]

hes a guy that talks pc news on yt.

[trail terrace]

well its related to consoles

[dreamy rose]

sounds good enough for him. go there

[stray apex]

LTT doesn't do leaks

[trail terrace]

oh?

[dreamy rose]

exactly why i directed them literally anywhere else.

[fierce moth]

Wrong, that folder generally only appears if you have wsl enabled

[trail terrace]

yeah ill prob just post on my twitter, 2000 followers is enough lol

[manic torrent]

Yeah ok bro.

[dreamy rose]

gotta weigh up your options then

[trail terrace]

well its the new ps5

[manic torrent]

If you want to sell a leak, maybe you should contact your local universities ethics department

[trail terrace]

ethics smethics

[dreamy rose]

sun tzu said that

[trail terrace]

^_^ wise man

[dreamy rose]

ffs. why would discord be using a whole gig of RAM.

[atomic osprey]

Hey guys

I am traveling to another country and I want to take my PC with me, can you please tell me some good packaging tips or videos that I should know about?

[dreamy rose]

expanding foam. necessary for shipping a system with a GPU. especially if you got a fat one (aka Current gen)

[atomic osprey]

Not sure if I can get that where I live...I still have my GPU box with me

[dreamy rose]

cause aibs cant make decent sized cards unless its literally Ewaste.

[atomic osprey]

I have all the original boxes for all the components except the Case and the Monitor

[dreamy rose]

no clue where to get it eirther.

[atomic osprey]

🗿

[dreamy rose]

taking it out is an annoying process but if you cant get foam i don't see why you cant take it out.

[minor shoal]

this brings back memories

[dreamy rose]

if you have any HDDs you'd do that too. though nobody shoud be running a HDD in a PC in 2023.

[atomic osprey]

Yeah lol, only SSDs

[minor shoal]

I think HDDs can still be useful

[dreamy rose]

in servers,

[minor shoal]

sure they're not fast, but they're good for cold storage basically

I got a 20TB HDD in my PC that has family photos, videos, documents, backups of music etc.

[atomic osprey]

The owner of the store I bought my stuff from told me he would help me dismantle and then package it, but just in case 🙂

[minor shoal]

it works well, i rarely access it but it's there like a solid backup and it's very cheap compared to a 20TB SSD (if that even exists)

[atomic osprey]

20TB?!

[minor shoal]

Yeah it's waaaay overkill I know, I've only used 2

but the initial plan was to put it in a NAS

I really wanted to build a NAS but... like

[dreamy rose]

taking out the GPU shouldn't be hard at all.

[atomic osprey]

NAS?

[minor shoal]

what am I going to do with all that storage'

[minor shoal]

"Network-attached storage"

[dreamy rose]

Network Attached Storage. aka storage server

[minor shoal]

basically a PC that you can use as a home server to access files

[atomic osprey]

Yeah but there's other stuff too 😹

[atomic osprey]

Ohhh

[dreamy rose]

like what? is it watercooled or something?

[atomic osprey]

No

I'm like, a noob at doing mechanical things like this...

[dreamy rose]

then whats the problem? an air cooled GPU can be easily removed and unplugged.

[minor shoal]

Please be careful when you do this. People tend to forget that there is a clip (usually) at the right side that needs to "click" i.e. need to be pushed open, so you can easily get the GPU out. If you don't you will simply force the GPU out which could damage the PCIe slots

[dreamy rose]

i'll be blunt with you. that really doesn't mean shit. all it means is you havent done it before and have no confidence.

[atomic osprey]

Yeah

and I am not taking any chances with something like this 💀

[minor shoal]

@atomic osprey See the red arrow? This has to be pushed down before you take the GPU out https://i.imgur.com/nBXIKSz.png

[dreamy rose]

i wasn't gonna jump directly into specifics just like that. but you did it for me, cheers.

[minor shoal]

Sorry, I came in with little context and wasn't sure of his level of knowledge

[atomic osprey]

Well, I know what goes into a PC

I don't know how to take it out 🤣

[dreamy rose]

the hardest part is gonna be getting to it but that depends on your card.

[atomic osprey]

3060Ti

[minor shoal]

you might have to take some other parts out before you can access the switch for the PCIe slot

it depends on motherboard and card

why don't you show us a screenshot of your system bro?

[dreamy rose]

as we mentioned, the PCIE Slot the GPU is in has a tab to be pulled back. then you remove.

[atomic osprey]

Yes sorry one sec

[dreamy rose]

hardest part sometimes is accessing the tab

[atomic osprey]

Posted in #creative

[atomic osprey]

tab?

man I'm such a noob 😹

Sorry if the screenshot is not helpful 😅

[minor shoal]

be there in a sec @atomic osprey

[dreamy rose]

the thing we were just talking about being hard to access thats nessasary to get the card out.

[minor shoal]

I've always wanted this. https://i.imgur.com/b7asOc0.png

The power cable coming from below to the GPU. It looks so good. I didn't understand how people were able to pull those cables so far. I tried the cables that came with the PSU and then I bought sleeved cables that match the rest of my system, but they weren't any longer. Then it hit me. The case I have is built for watercooling, so it's too tall for the power cable to be able to reach the bottom. 🥲 I had to improvise and came up with this: https://i.imgur.com/UnDk403.jpeg

Not optimal and I know it could be prettier, but I can't do anything else. Idk. I like it even though it's not what I really wished for. All I need know is either:
A) a new CPU fan
B) a wider or longer fan heatsink clip because I have a spare RGB fan (like the ones you see on the pic) that I could use, but it's too thick. It's 30mm thick.

also before you comment on how dirty it looks, i literally cleaned it 4 days ago but this is the issue with fishtank cases

[atomic osprey]

They're both good

if you have different parts altogether how can you compare

[minor shoal]

I know it's different parts, but most cases support the power cables runnning through the bottom to the GPU

i'm just comparing the placement of the power cable not the rest of the system

but it's okay. I love my power cable setup even if it is a bit alternative

Stand out from the crowd - I guess

anyway sorry about this, let's go to #creative so I can see what you posted

[atomic osprey]

Ryzen 5950X
RTX 3060 Ti
64GB GSkill Neo
80 Plus Gold Cooler Master PSU
ASUS TUF X570 Motherboard
Noctua U12S
Corsair 4000D Airflow
2 TB SSD
256 GB SSD

This is my build. Do I have to read anything specific to know how to dismantle this before packaging?

[minor shoal]

Do you really need 64 GB RAM?

[atomic osprey]

Yeah

[minor shoal]

genuinely curious, not hating

[dreamy rose]

this is what my system looks like right now https://i.ytimg.com/vi/bVLdRgWg6hI/maxresdefault.jpg

[minor shoal]

what for? video editing?

[minor shoal]

looka like the inside of a toaster ngl

[dreamy rose]

only just how to take out the GPU.

[atomic osprey]

A lot of creative stuff, Game Dev and VFX

[minor shoal]

I see then it makes perfect sense

I went from 16 -> 32 and I have yet to even use 50% of that shit so it might've been a waste of money

eh whatever... RAM is cheap these days. DDR4 that is, not DDR5

[atomic osprey]

Yeah I'm not sure if DDR5 is even needed

DDR4 does everything well

[minor shoal]

DDR4 is going to stay no matter what, but DDR5 - while unnecessary right now - will become the standard soon enough obviously. give it a couple years

[atomic osprey]

Yeah

[minor shoal]

I saw the price of 64 GB DDR5 TridentZ Royal. It cost more than my current RAM + CPU combined... 550€

Yeah, nope. DDR5 is too expensive right now.

[dreamy rose]

its my shitbox, there are many like it but this is mine, it sits on the floor connected to a Monitor with a KB/M because the screen died.

[minor shoal]

Hahaha love your attitude towards it. Also, I gotta say I kind of like it as well even though it looks like e-waste basically.

It's very portable so that's a big plus.

What do you use it for if you don't mind me asking?

Is it your daily?

[dreamy rose]

its 11. with a mediocre for its time 12 year old gpu (GT 540M)

[dreamy rose]

has been for the past 4 years.

[atomic osprey]

Alright, thank you guys @minor shoal @dreamy rose I will figure the rest out from here. This was helpful. 🙂

[minor shoal]

You're welcome man, I would've helped some more but i got cousins visiting me from germany and one of them doesn't leave me alone, she keeps coming in asking questions about pc shit lmao

[minor shoal]

I take it you're not a gamer then. What do you use it for?

[atomic osprey]

No worries, enjoy your family time 🙂

[minor shoal]

"enjoy" bro i'm tryinng protect my consoles, monitors, pc, and other tech from getting destroyed

this is war between me and my young cousins

[dreamy rose]

i am. I've spent most of the last year in TF2 tho.

[minor shoal]

Do you not feel compelled to upgrade? I'm not saying one has to have the latest of the latest, but surely it's time for an upgrade soon, no?

Unless TF2 is all you play then I can kind of understand the decision to not waste money for no reason

Do you really not want to experience this though? Took this screenshot in-game with HDR (the screenshot doesn't have HDR, so it looks better than shown here): https://i.imgur.com/UFgzR8M.jpeg

[atomic osprey]

🤣

[dreamy rose]

i'm poor as fuck.

[minor shoal]

Can't argue with that

Do you happen to live in Denmark? If you do I have a spare 1080 Ti I can give you.

im not sending it out of country though, so you have to be in denmark

[dreamy rose]

Australia.

[minor shoal]

okay literally the furthest away you could be

lmfao unlucky

[polar fern]

Hm

[wind pulsar]

Ew, pittance

[minor shoal]

???

It's not "ew" to have limited resources. It is however kind of obnoxious to say ew to it. Have some respect...

[polar fern]

Word.

[dreamy rose]

it sucks here we dont get steam deck.

[wind pulsar]

I said 'ew' to you, not to BSS

[minor shoal]

That makes even less sense

[minor shoal]

Yeah I hear it's pretty good!

[wind pulsar]

Offering someone free shit out of pity after hearing about their financial situation is downright insulting to many, I wouldn't be particularly happy about it. Though that's just my view on it

[dreamy rose]

deck is amazing.

[minor shoal]

That's not what pittance means, dummy. Also in what fucking world is it insulting to offer someone legitimate help? Are you this stupid? For real?

[polar fern]

Yes I’m sure every bridge was built by one person.

[dreamy rose]

it might just be me. but i dont agree with this.

[vapid zephyr]

Imagine personally attacking someone over this, kinda cringe

[minor shoal]

I'm not offering it out of pity, I'm offering it because I've been there.

[fierce moth]

just transfered my domain to cloudflare

[dreamy rose]

i dont get insulted when the school councilor asks if my Myki travel pass is nearly up.

[minor shoal]

This has nothing to do with you. Besides, my insult was pretty warranted. That was just about the stupidest thing I've read all day.

[vapid zephyr]

I don't care if it's about me or not and insults are never warranted kek

[polar fern]

As a person living well below the poverty line, I can tell you now that asking for/accepting help is a key survival skill.

[minor shoal]

Just like no one cares about your replies in here

[vapid zephyr]

You clearly do bozo, you responded almost immediately to it

[atomic osprey]

stop fighting fellas

[minor shoal]

Who's insulting who now?

[past kernel]

the dude he was replying to insulted him so

[vapid zephyr]

I never said I wouldn't do it kek

[polar fern]

Who’s fighting?

[past kernel]

also stop saying kek, it isnt 2015 anymore

[minor shoal]

^^^^^^^^

[dreamy rose]

to be quite honest nobody is gonna listen to someone with "intel arc supremacy" in their username

[vapid zephyr]

Damn bro, quite something to say for someone who's known here for nobody listening to him, gg

[fierce moth]

shut up and burn a cd

[minor shoal]

Just forget about it. Can we all agree that this is leading nowhere and maybe move on?

[dreamy rose]

when you do those hype up shits you make the product look just disappointing

[vapid zephyr]

Bro it says Arc, not Alchemist

I said multiple times that Alchemist isn't the shit to be excited about, take some copium

[dreamy rose]

never said shit about Alc fool.

[vapid zephyr]

You literally quoted my Intel Arc name, wtf are you talking about

Are you having another BSS moment or wtf is going on

[minor shoal]

@dreamy rose Don't reply to him man. Arguing with idiots never works, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

[dreamy rose]

i think you're having a boomer moment right now.

[vapid zephyr]

I'm 22 kek

[minor shoal]

acting like you're 15 ngl lmfao

[vapid zephyr]

Are you 13 or why the fuck am I a boomer

[minor shoal]

Dude you're the one saying "kek". How about you grow up? It's time. You're 22. LMFAO

[dreamy rose]

because i said ARC and not ALCHEMIST.

[polar fern]

🤔

[minor shoal]

Fuck this, I've had enough. I'm getting off, see you guys around. This guy's a troll.

[vapid zephyr]

Yes, that was my ENTIRE POINT.

[polar fern]

Y’all need to caress some foliage.

[vapid zephyr]

You said something about disappointing products, which is only Alchemist so far, when the fuck do you learn to get implications into your head

[dreamy rose]

well your point is pointless then. maybe because you missread what i was saying completely

[polar fern]

Need to sort out some storage bins today.

[wind pulsar]

Presumably never, guy's been a moron since he's started talking in this server

[vapid zephyr]

I can tell kek

[dreamy rose]

i'm tallkin Battlemage hype. that shits gonna go too far and make people hate it

[vapid zephyr]

When did I ever hype Battlemage lol

Battlemage is certainly something to be excited about, but it's gonna take a long time before Arc is actually really cool stuff

[dreamy rose]

theres tons of people hypin up battlemage like mad. not talking about you specifically.

[polar fern]

Google search etc is full on broken, including recommended on YouTube. 🤦‍♂️

[vapid zephyr]

Then why bring it up, attack my Discord name like you have no arguments to deliver and then act like you've never attacked me lmfao

[dreamy rose]

intels fucked up GPUs before what makes Battlemage any different

[wind pulsar]

<@&750150305383186585>

[vapid zephyr]

Wdym 'before', we both weren't even born before Intel tried making consumer dGPUs

[dreamy rose]

i can still look at Radeons on google. guessing thats a you side problem chief.

[dreamy rose]

the i740 was a failiure.

[vapid zephyr]

Shit happens, now they try again

25 years is a long time, you have no right to be distrustful when you don't even know of the failure, why it failed and what happened afterwards

[dreamy rose]

yea one sucessful generation doesnt exactly mean they are gonna be on to a 3rd either.

[vapid zephyr]

All you know is that it failed and neither do I know more

And by your logic it makes no sense whatsoever why you're even remotely trusting AMD either, their GPUs have been a failure for the most part for like 20 years now bruh

[dreamy rose]

it failed because people didn't buy it, they saw no reason to. and the result was the idea of Integrated Graphics.

[vapid zephyr]

Considering they're not immediately ditching Intel Arc, shit seems to go fairly well

It's gonna take a while for it to be completely profitable, but doesn't seem to go bad

[dreamy rose]

doesn't mean they will be here to stay. need to stay weary that they could just ditch arc anytime. Battlemage could be dogshit. we dont know anything about it.

time will tell

if i'm wrong then i'm wrong. cool. but hype goes too far sometimes and thats what people will do

[vapid zephyr]

If Arc would run that bad, they would've ditched Arc already, it is how it is

Believe it or not, I don't give a flying fuck
And I don't know why you keep on pressing on the hype, I haven't seen a single relevant person here that has made too much hype on Intel Arc

[bright silo]

I really want Intel to disrupt the market but Nvidia’s power is mighty!

[vapid zephyr]

Intel technically could just ditch the dGPU market and not care, Intel is the biggest GPU giant by a long mile. Just not dGPUs

[bright silo]

Uh… it was a statement not an argument

[dreamy rose]

i've seen people drumming up hype here. its not a good image if people promise a Rosy future and instead you get a below expectation experience. if Arc is to do well, it needs to not be short of expectation.

[bright silo]

Also we talking only dGPUs

[minor shoal]

yeah i wish that too

[vapid zephyr]

Correct, and mine was an answer to that statement

[minor shoal]

getting sick of nvidia thb that's why i switched to team red this generation

[bright silo]

You can’t answer a statement

[dreamy rose]

i got sick of Green ages ago.

[minor shoal]

You can answer questions, not statements

[bright silo]

It’s not a question to answer

[dreamy rose]

also. Price. fuck Green. too expensive

[minor shoal]

My last GPU was 1080 Ti which was a beast and held up for so long. So I didn't really follow the scene. Skipped generation 20, 30, and now 40.

[vapid zephyr]

I don't particularly care, if you want to play semantics even though you know what I'm talking about, then I'm responding to said statement

[minor shoal]

I don't think he particularly cares about your "answers" either 💪

[dreamy rose]

what did you upgrade to?

[minor shoal]

RX 6950 XT

[vapid zephyr]

Cool story bro, keep malding

[dreamy rose]

nice choice. better than buying a 4080 at all.

[minor shoal]

No one's malding here, it seems like you are though. Also, you're 22. Act like your age.

[vapid zephyr]

I act however the hell I want 🥱

[bright silo]

We can tell

[minor shoal]

^^^^

[vapid zephyr]

I don't give a shit how you like my behavior, block me if you don't like it

[dreamy rose]

its a 9 year old and a 10 year old on one account.

[polar fern]

Don’t involve me in your behaviour. “We”. No.

[vapid zephyr]

🥺

Can we go back to talking about tech? Just block this clown and we can be done with his unhelpful comments.

[dreamy rose]

i agree. so what did you pay for it?

[bright silo]

You want my tech tip? 😜

[dreamy rose]

21

[minor shoal]

I actually paid ~820€. It might seem expensive but I'm from Europe and in my country especially there are a lot of taxes on things so... The thing is though it's cheap if you consider e.g. 4090. For the price of ONE 4090, I could've bought THREE 6950 XT

So yeah I'm really happy with my purchase. I game at 1440p, which it handles really well at ultra settings. Stable 165 FPS (my monitors refresh rate)

I can't complain honestly. AMD has been good to me. My CPU is also AMD.

[dreamy rose]

you really cant justify the MSRP of the 4090 even if its the fastest card. especially when Radeon is in the picture.

[polar fern]

Europe: more expensive for some things, mostly free healthcare & good transit infrastructure.

[minor shoal]

It's a nice trade off for sure. I don't have to worry about being in debt for 50 years because I broke a rib or two lmfaooo

[polar fern]

Indeed

[vapid zephyr]

I got my 4090 for free, didn't even consider any 7000 series GPU since it's basically DOA, my CPU is a 13900K. I did use a 5950X and and 6950 XT before this though.

[minor shoal]

Yeah man. Besides, you don't really need the "latest of the latest". So many "lower end" GPUs do really well.

[vapid zephyr]

It's fun when countries that include tax in the prices suddenly have small taxes for literally anything

[minor shoal]

I don't and neither should most people (imo) support Nvidia's current pricing on GPUs

[bright silo]

How do you get a 4090 for free?

[minor shoal]

Most likely sucked off his local supplier

[polar fern]

No kink shaming

[minor shoal]

of course not

[vapid zephyr]

No, I just stole it off my store lol

[polar fern]

Um

[bright silo]

Can’t tell if serious

[dreamy rose]

"7000 series DOA" is the biggest Copium i've ever heard.

[minor shoal]

Steal one for me too

[vapid zephyr]

The perks of owning businesses lol

[vapid zephyr]

If you say so
The 7900 XTX is seriously disappointing and I stand by it

[bright silo]

It stole it from your own business

[polar fern]

Still gotta mark it out of the inventory

[vapid zephyr]

Oh of course, lol

[bright silo]

7900XTX is disappointing compared to what? A free 4090 sure, but in general no.

[minor shoal]

At 22 you "own" a "business" and you stole a 2000€ item off of that "business"? I think you're using some terms loosely here. Good luck with that business bro.

[polar fern]

Cuz 👀

[dreamy rose]

you really gonna die on that hill when the thing is literally like 60% the price?

[minor shoal]

I'm going to instigate in a bit

[vapid zephyr]

Damn, some serious jealousy here. And yes, I own not one business, but several, wow! The perks (or maybe not) of being born well off.

[minor shoal]

nah jk, i'm just gonna go instead lmao

[bright silo]

I kinda want to see this guys build. I wants proof. For science ofc!

[vapid zephyr]

Yes, since the 6900 XT was able to compete with Amperes 90 tier card.

[minor shoal]

Hey how about this, big shot? Send some screenshots of your business. Send your website. Send some google reviews. Send the location.

I'm willing to bet that you can't do any of the things I just mentioned.

[bright silo]

That’s a bit more than well off…

[minor shoal]

OH WAIT I missed something. You said you were "born well"?

Ahhh that explains it. You were born with a golden spoon deep inside your ass. So you never really worked for it - or quite possibly anything. That makes sense now. Thanks for clearing it up!

[vapid zephyr]

The 7900 XTX doesn't even come close. The credit I will give them is that they almost immediately went out and said that it won't compete with a 4090

[vapid zephyr]

Holy shit, you're that pissed just over me saying this hahaha

[daring tide]

lol its the definition of daddys money

[bright silo]

I mean it did come off as gloating so

[dreamy rose]

what does that matter? AMD didn't go power hungry like Nvidia did. as a result its majority of the performance at 60% of the price, and yet you think that's not enough? truly Coping.

[minor shoal]

Not once have I been pissed in this entire conversation. I'm literally laughing right now.

[vapid zephyr]

For sure. Have fun talking to yourself kek

[minor shoal]

Dad's precious little boy 😂😂

[timid meadow]

Dont worry, so are we

[vapid zephyr]

I'm gladly coping then, because nope, that's not enough for me

[dreamy rose]

Nvidia literally were fine with pushing the most George Foreman lookin ass graphics card possible before they realized it was a bad idea and went with TSMC. AMD isnt that kind of company

[minor shoal]

George Foreman lookin ass grphics card

lmfao true true

OH NOOOO SHIIIIT

[bright silo]

Times are tough out here

[timid meadow]

At him not you. The word of a regular/former regular carries alot more for me then a day 1

[minor shoal]

That logic does not even make any sense.

[bright silo]

I tried to break the cycle…

[vapid zephyr]

You did me more dirty than this misunderstanding by calling me a former regular lmfao

[timid meadow]

Makes a hell of alot of sense when you hang around long enough to see how many people join just for the sake of being a jackass.

[minor shoal]

You're right man, I'll stop. I'm the one who keeps replying to these clowns. I have blocked both now, so we can all move on. Cheers.

[vapid zephyr]

Yeah, mf essentially told me to dox myself, was great fun

[minor shoal]

It's kind of nice with all the noise drowned out, right?

I just wish instead of showing "1 blocked message" discord would simply not show anything but whatever, this works 💪

[bright silo]

Anyways over under of my new front I/O fixing my mic issues? It just connects and disconnects non stop. Everything else works and is plugged in/undamaged….

[timid meadow]

Lmfao discord kids still think blocking does anything

[vapid zephyr]

Yeah you can tell he's still reading our shit considering he's still acting like this kek

[minor shoal]

Have you tried updating the drivers

[rough socket]

Are you guys really arguing just over a freaking block of metal that output an image ?

[bright silo]

Yup

[minor shoal]

What audio software are you using? I've had issues in the past with an equalizer that would change the input device despite me setting it in windows

I think I misunderstood your problem. The issue isn't that it's not working but plugged in, but rather that when you plug it in it immediately disconnects, right?

[bright silo]

None

[minor shoal]

not quite, just making fun of a spoiled kid with a rich dad

[bright silo]

When plugged in it connects and disconnects non stop

[minor shoal]

Oh so it's continuous?

[vapid zephyr]

Me and spoiled, I wish lmfao

[minor shoal]

continuous and fast? The connecting/disconnecting I mean

[bright silo]

Yes

[timid meadow]

Not necessarily. Doesnt take much to own a business. Multiple successful business take a bit of work and luck. But just being a business owner isnt a flex

[minor shoal]

Do you have another device that you can plug it into?

this way you can confirm whether it's the mic itself or your IO port on your PC

[bright silo]

Owning multiple businesses at 22 with a high end gaming PC is more than well off in my books

I grew up relatively poor so take that for what you will

[minor shoal]

stop replying to this clown, he's 22 but clearly 15 mentally

[vapid zephyr]

Says something when a lot of the billionaires come from humble beginnings doesn't it

[minor shoal]

focus on the issue at hand, your audio issue

[bright silo]

I have new front I/O, should be fixed. Need to test later today.

[minor shoal]

ah i see

good luck man

[timid meadow]

Eh, eat the rich to an extent. Most people with that much money didnt come humbly. They stomped and lied and cheated their way up.

[vapid zephyr]

Most of the shit I own is earned myself. Yes, I did get a headstart, it'd be stupid to deny that, but they effectively told me 'You get this, get the fuck out' lmao

[timid meadow]

Not saying you did. You already acknowledged your head start and you still bust your ass from everything ive seen of you here and over in the tank

[vapid zephyr]

I'm trying my best lol

[bright silo]

The tank?

[timid meadow]

Hell of alot better then im doin. Part of that is just the culture in your area tho

[vapid zephyr]

[bright silo]

I want to get a Flemish Giant!

[timid meadow]

This is her before her shave. Big girl. Little overweight, but between maincoon bones, and her long fur. Its a massive cat

Like you gotta be careful how you let her cuddle you because her existence hurts if she shifts her weight wrong

All that weight focused into her paws

[bright silo]

Y’all should look up what a Flemish Giant is… 👀

[vapid zephyr]

The thing is, based on my experience with dogs

[bright silo]

Cause I can’t post pictures…

[vapid zephyr]

The bigger and more aggressive looking the dog is, the more gentle it is

And as far as I can tell, the same, to a certain degree, applies to cats

[timid meadow]

Omg ill post a pic gimme a sec wtf

[vapid zephyr]

So Maine Coon it is

[bright silo]

😂

[vapid zephyr]

Oh yeah ik, it's the worlds biggest rabbit breed

[timid meadow]

Thats stupid wtf please noone let my wife see that

[vapid zephyr]

Those eat massive amounts of food btw

They will empty your fucking kitchen if you're not careful

[bright silo]

Flemish Giants are awesome pets. Use to have several.

[timid meadow]

I dont like pets who shit bigger then me

[bright silo]

You shit pellets?

[timid meadow]

Mfs gunna eat me one day

[vapid zephyr]

What do you want to get then, a hamster?

[vapid zephyr]

The reason I know it works this way is because chihuahuas exist

[timid meadow]

Nah im a slightly overweight american. Gimme some fiber to bind it and taco bell to push it out and we can set records

I cant imagine that bunnys poo is enjoyable to clean. And youd have to

[vapid zephyr]

I'm actually glad I'm not more overweight than I already am, hypothyroidism makes it hard for me to lose weight without comprimising my life to certain extremes

My training helps me to keep my weight lmao

[timid meadow]

Im shocked im not more overweight then i am. I walk alot tho. Not as much as i used to, but still more then most

[bright silo]

Bunny poo is very easy to clean

They can be litter box trained

[timid meadow]

From that bunny specifically? Bullshit

[vapid zephyr]

Badummtss

[timid meadow]

I refuse to believe

[bright silo]

They use litter box

[vapid zephyr]

I can imagine a dust sweeper will still be enough to do that

[timid meadow]

Regular bunnies maybe. Im not tryina tell those teeth no and piss em off to train em

[bright silo]

They are called gentle giants for a reason

I’ve had Flemish giants as pets… they are relatively clean animals

[vapid zephyr]

Treat them like you want to be treated and I doubt they'll ever gonna be making an issue

[timid meadow]

Actually surpised. Cool

[vapid zephyr]

Rats are btw also super clean animals lol

[timid meadow]

I got off work, saw a bunny as big as a dog and just immediately noped lol

[timid meadow]

Ive had rats before

[bright silo]

😂

Don’t hate on the giant bunnies

[vapid zephyr]

Wait, you shit yourself on bunnies but not on rats

[timid meadow]

On that bunny specifically yes. Most arent the size of a medium dog

And tbf i wasnt a big fan of the rats either when they first came around but that was a long time ago so 🤷

[bright silo]

[north wraith]

hey privacy.com is that service that LMG sponsered with that offers throw-away credit cards right?

I need to book a hair cut but the barbershops website only uses http so I dont want to give them my actual credit card

[gray pollen]

I would just go to another barbershop. That would tell me they don't keep up with education.

[full fossil]

Cash

[gray pollen]

Tbh, it means they don't even use NA industry standard infrastructure. They would have to go out of their way to set up a service with just http. All the products that market themselves to salon management include https by default.

[full fossil]

Wait you have to pay before it??

You should try a cash app card

[gray pollen]

A deposit for an appointment isn't unheard of. But usually it's an up to date/well reputed salon. Which would mean they use the infrastructure that includes https. So I'm v confused. I would run away from this place before I ended up with a bowl cut.

[full fossil]

I think it’s a little paranoid when most barber shops would use a template to make their web-site

[gray pollen]

The template sites that advertise to cosmetologists specifically for example in schools and at trade shows include https by default.

[dreamy rose]

a barber with a website is telling me to run in the first place but thats just me cause i never heard of a barber with one.

[full fossil]

This building has air conditioning in it

It’s so great

If I wasn’t a certified leg shaver I would’ve brought shorts

[gray pollen]

So that would mean the people there haven't gone to a trade show or school in the last 5 years, meaning they've had no continued training, which in the industry, is the sign of an untruatable professional.

[dreamy rose]

are they even a professional if you cant trust them?

[gray pollen]

I'm not gonna take their license from them. Or their 1000+ hours of education or experience. If you ask them for a technique from when they went to school, they'd probably do the service well, but some stuff from that long ago, including cutting techniques could be damaging and phased out as we made that realization.

I can't believe I'm talking about cosmetology in a tech server. This is one of the greatest moments of my life.

[modest leaf]

curious what this is about because the gf is going to school for her license rn

[gray pollen]

Which part are you curious about?

[modest leaf]

idk i have adhd so i couldnt read most of it

[rain mesa]

Having a fiancee with a Esthetics license, if you get a job at a "chain salon" like a SuperCuts, DekaLash, etc, the Corporate office usually pays in full or in part for continuing education, and sometimes brings the classes right to the salon in off-hours for ease.

[dull granite]

boys

[tired glade]

Oh,my

[gray pollen]

Mmm, don't worry about it. It was about someone cutting corners. If she's passionate about the craft none of what we talked about will matter. It was about a barbershop using an http website instead of https and I said that means they haven't been to a trade show or school in 5 years and so I wouldn't trust them.

[dull granite]

i'm a big fan of finding needles in haystacks

[modest leaf]

oh so u mean the chain salon ppl might not be as good

[gray pollen]

No

[modest leaf]

linus salon tips tbh

[rain mesa]

nope. Usually corporate offices will subsidize continuing education. Something mom-and-pop type shops usually don't have the funds to do.

[gray pollen]

Unless you have someone where it's their first week of work, a chain shop usually has better educated staff both as a value for their slightly underpaid workers, and also to fight the chain shop stigma. "Mom and pop" salons that aren't trying to cut corners and are passionate are usually fine too. It's the booth rental shops that are hit and miss on education.

Remember the beauty industry is multibillion dollars, and services have gone from 50 to 600 in the last few years. Unless they are arrogant know it alls, which is way too common in the industry imo or you have someone who lost their passion, they make enough for continued education.

[strange elk]

I know 2 large chains that have sites, I dont see why a small one cant

[rain mesa]

Right? Like a domain and hosting can cost less than $100/yr if you play your cards right.

[strange elk]

Long as you dont get a ton of traffic. Assuming you aren't just using cloud

[jaunty compass]

every aio should also be able to function as a monitor and if it can't it's a bad product

[strange elk]

I guess. If you dont have a glass side panel though thats kinda useless

[rain mesa]

Why?

[jaunty compass]

I think you misunderstood the statement

[shut lichen]

wrong kind of aio mate

[strange elk]

Oh

[shut lichen]

like the imac

[strange elk]

But yeah I agree

Laptops dont is the other thing, not that its a strong point to makw

[jaunty compass]

I recently found a dell aio in my grandmother's office
slow as hell but it has a 1080p IPS dsplay

it can be used as a monitor, so it's actually still good for something

[rain mesa]

oh that's neat.

[jaunty compass]

i was pleasantly surprised when i accidentally hit the input button on it

[rain mesa]

I assume the reason most AIOs don't allow to be regular monitors, is so the brands force you to buy another one of their products if you need a monitor.

is m2 mac mini cheaper to run a web server compared to rent a server? because m2 is also energy efficient?

[full fossil]

[finite cloud]

You could probably get something cheaper for that like yeah the M1 mini

[gray pollen]

What are you doing with the server?

[tribal topaz]

maybe applecare+ if something goes wrong it might be expensive

[shut lichen]

at that point just get a raspberry pi 🤣

if you're worried about cost that much, I doubt it's anything too important or intensive

[tribal topaz]

performace/watt is not that good

[shut lichen]

there's no way in hell a m2 mac mini would ever be cheaper than proper hosting

[finite cloud]

they run on a 5v power supply i doubt they are gonna be hogging your power bill

an M2 mac mini for just a web server seems like a waste to me but thats just my opinion

[shut lichen]

and running a webserver on macos just sounds not fun

[gray pollen]

What performance do you need? What are you doing? Just hosting a website?

[shut lichen]

chances are it's something you could run on github pages for free lol

[tribal topaz]

im just guessing imagine like something similar to running reddit

[glacial sand]

yo quick question

[modest lion]

Raspberry pi is a good choice

[glacial sand]

how do i see my real data, pc isnt like android/ios where you can just see how much space an app is taking up

[tribal topaz]

what about videos? live video can it handle ?

[modest lion]

Actually yes go in settings then system then stockage

[modest lion]

Yes raspberry pi 4b 8gb for best performance

[glacial sand]

there isnt a stockage

[tribal topaz]

i mean multiple video conversion at a time

[glacial sand]

oh system then stockage mb

[modest lion]

I dont know for it i know it can handle self host services such as running somes 4k vids i guess you will need something more powerful

[pliant karma]

I got a whole year of applecare+ on my mac the moment i got it. Last thing to worry about albeit I should not have any issues later down the line

[gray pollen]

Mac wouldn't be super great for that anyway. A diy mini itx can be built to pull low wattage, but anything that's gonna render and broadcast multiple videos in 4k is gonna use and need more power. There's a channel I think called tiny mini micro that only talks about tiny builds with a focus on different self hosting applications p much.

I am a bit late on the multi monitor performance video, but I got a few comments

[dusky osprey]

ngl i finished watching the newest ltt video but their testing was meh

[graceful burrow]

Average ltt testing tbh

[dusty rune]

which is why if you want testing you watch other tech reviewers

[silk wolf]

oh wow the tracking bug is actually blocking me from getting notifs of new vids? fix your crap youutube!

[hidden geyser]

People doggedly insist on FSE, and then magically wonder why their performance is crap

[dusky osprey]

wonder when/if labs will actually pick up]

[silk wolf]

FSE?

[hidden geyser]

Full Screen Exclusive

[polar fern]

Much ping.

[hidden geyser]

Every single "Tech" and "gamer" YouTuber has shoved down the throats about forcibly enabling FSE everywhere

[polar fern]

Fse?

[hidden geyser]

Which is comical

[winged yarrow]

I like borderless more than exclusive fullscreen.

[graceful burrow]

Tbf I've found the performance impact of borderless windowed and fse depends on the game
Some prefer one, some prefer the other, some don't give a damn

[polar fern]

people actually care about this shit? Waow

[winged yarrow]

The only time I don't like borderless is when the game can't keep my mouse in the frame when it needs to be.

[winged yarrow]

I like how that sentence could be applied to any statement XD

[graceful burrow]

People care about setting settings to get the most performance, yes
Weird
Maybe stop being condescending for no reason

[hidden geyser]

At the end of the day, using FSE is jumping through more steps to get your frame displayed on screen

[polar fern]

Not really full screen or window really doesn’t matter. It’s like pineapple on pizza who gives a shit order whatever the fuck you want.

[tired glade]

YouTube track how and from where you click and how long you watching,that official information

[mint abyss]

Anyone saw todays LTT video about multi monitor hurt your fps? I'm confused at the conclusion, it says if I drag a window around/resize a window I will get fps dips, but who would do that while playing a game?
I have three monitors, usually I have a few videos playing on the side monitors while I game, and sometimes I have OBS recording the main monitor. I should be fine if I don't move the windows?

[hidden geyser]

The testing done was comically primitive, as it skipped some important elements

[polar fern]

Drawing a moving active window is far more calculation intensive than drawing stuff inside of a stationary active window

[winged yarrow]

Well but if you're concerned about the nutritional performance of the pizza and you're micro managing the toppings then maybe you'd care, right

[graceful burrow]

Average ltt testing

[silk wolf]

what i'm sayingg is it seems like tracking is broken. it's suggesting several already watched vids as new.

[polar fern]

No I don’t care I’m going to order a pizza the way I want the pizza I’m not gonna go round telling people what they should put on their pizza unless some super unethical thing like some rare animal or something

@silk wolf yeah YouTube algorithm is really screwy the last three or four days.

[winged yarrow]

No, I don't care how much you care about talking about pizza, I'm just hungry for pizza now.

[polar fern]

I wonder if they are moving their data between locations and temporary losing track of things like recommends and stats

[silk wolf]

it's not even algorithm. the red bar isn't on the vids.

[polar fern]

Yeah, I have videos that I watched like 10 seconds of & the red bar is all the way to the end

I also have videos pop up that I’ve already watched as if I haven’t watch them yet

[silk wolf]

oh that's like the oposite of me. vids i've watched 100% of have no bar at all. 😛

[polar fern]

It all brokrn

[silk wolf]

i wonder if this is part of the attempt to block adblock. they broke their site trying to milk us. 😛

[polar fern]

They hire the “ai” and forget that it’s not actually “ai” but whoops it’s all automated now 🤷‍♂️

[graceful burrow]

:what:

[polar fern]

I don’t use ad blocker or any of that stuff I don’t care about watching ads.

Now, if it’s like the same, ad like 40 times in the span of a day or two, then I’ll be irritated, but they do have ways to deal with that

[near nymph]

😎

[polar fern]

I think it’s actually funny, because if the company puts out an ad buy & plasters all of my YouTube viewing with their stupid ad, I’m going to get pissed off and not use their service out of spite 🤣

[near nymph]

Floor seats near stage. 😎

Time wait later this year to book myself a business class flight to Toronto

[polar fern]

Yeah, I am pretty much done going to theatre or a concert or a movie for the foreseeable future.

[silk wolf]

try 20 in the same hour....i'm tired of googles adserv for this exact reason.

[graceful burrow]

Ew
Supporting one of the most polluting individuals on earth

[near nymph]

Concerts are too expensive these days... But... Eh...

[near nymph]

Im also banking with the dirtiest bank according to their investments.

My carbon footprint is gonna be insane

[polar fern]

People are gross and mindless, and this pandemic has really highlighted that. I’d much rather watch a movie in comfort where I can use a clean bathroom in peace.

[graceful burrow]

Imagine joking about something like that dude
Fucked up

[near nymph]

I'm just saying that as a fact. Not joking

[polar fern]

I would be more concerned about her dating a white nationalist. 🤷‍♂️

[near nymph]

The problem is. They just said that this year. I can't uproot my entire banking shit to another bank

[graceful burrow]

Yeah the environment doesn't matter transit true not at all

[near nymph]

My business banking is tied to my personal banking

[polar fern]

I have used like six different banks in the last 15 years. It’s a fairly easy to switch if you have staff that know what they are doing.

[graceful burrow]

"the environment doesn't matter" ~transitbiker

[near nymph]

It's not when you only have 4 banks to choose from then some credit unions that won't work if your doing a lot of international trade and crap

[polar fern]

I never said that.

[graceful burrow]

Nah you're just more worried about other stuff, the environment takes a back seat

I get it

[polar fern]

I literally walk to get around I don’t even own a car and I’m multiple decades old so I don’t know what the hell you’re talking about

[graceful burrow]

Bro nobody ever knows what you're talking about so ig the feeling is finally mutual

[polar fern]

Not my fault people can’t keep up

[graceful burrow]

[polar fern]

🤷‍♂️

[graceful burrow]

"keep up"
road is actually a Rollercoaster

[near nymph]

Canada you are stuck with... Based off size
RBC - 1st
TD - 2nd
ScotiaBank - 3rd
BMO - 4th
CIBC - 5th
National Bank (Quebec bank) - 6th.

Then you have HSBC Canada that refuses to take me and is selling themselves to RBC

[polar fern]

Here in Pennsylvania, there are literally like 20 different banks that you can sign up with

You can also sign up with banks that are out of state, but it’s a lot more expensive typically unless they have some really good ATM fee thing

[near nymph]

I can sneeze and a new bank will be founded in the US. A dying grandma can start a bank even

[polar fern]

These are not new banks these are banks which are at least 50 years old

[near nymph]

We have credit unions. But if I'm in another part of Canada and I need stuff done. I don't have access.

[polar fern]

Yes, we have credit unions too

[near nymph]

Y'all have credit unions that are in multiple states

[polar fern]

We have credit unions and banks

[near nymph]

Our credit unions are very restricted to a few areas in a province.

[polar fern]

Some banks are only in one state some or across multiple states. Not sure about credit unions because I don’t use those.

[near nymph]

Lmfao I was waddling around flordia and found a TD. We Canadians banks love fucking around in America

[polar fern]

Toronto Dominion bank is everywhere

[near nymph]

Yeah. They keep buying up random US banks

They were even talking about taking over some failing US banks

[polar fern]

No, they’re literally everywhere. Their ATMs are in probably every state

[near nymph]

Canadian Government I think slapped em and told em to fuck off

[polar fern]

The biggest bank by assets under management, I believe is Chase

Then boa

[near nymph]

I bank with RBC and Tangerine mainly. Because well... Parents signed me up for RBC. And they give me perks that makes sense to me. Plus they handed me a premium credit card on a silver platter when I didn't even have a credit file. I have tangerine around for their promotional saving account and ScotiaBank ATM access lol

Lmfao. RBC was a little predatory towards students. They hand them credit cards with little to no income. Start you off with a little. Then offer you $7500 limit shorty after

[polar fern]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TD_Bank_(United_States)

[near nymph]

11th biggest in the US... 2nd largest in Canada?

There 2 banks in Canada that will fuck the global economy if they collapse... RBC and TD.

RBC and TD keep changing places I think

RBC keeps dicking around with cross border banking. Kinda annoying. I might open a TD cross border banking account.

[polar fern]

🤷‍♂️

[indigo plume]

lol I thought td was an canadian bank

didnt know there was td in america

[summer folio]

there's 2 girls but because of the ravages of socialism, they're forced to share just 1 cup

[wind pulsar]

No.

You are very welcome to not even try to entertain this, especially because it's from four years ago

[winged yarrow]

Reminds me of the scene from letterkenny

"Tiddy bank?" "Yeah. TD Bank."

[finite cloud]

What person gets that board that they reply to a message from 2019

[plucky grove]

anyone wanna take a look at my portfolio website im making i need advice. not sure wahat channel i should be sending this in tho ill be fr

[crystal drum]

what game should i play

[edgy moss]

I have to use a screw driver a lot for my job and I’m considering getting the LTT one

[hallow spoke]

buy it then?

[edgy moss]

Well I was going to ask if anyone here has used it in their line of work and if it has done a good job

[wanton jewel]

if you check the reddit there are alot of posts about it, the only one i read was some guy using it in f1 races fixing the cars

[edgy moss]

damn

[teal ridge]

13600kf is probably overkill I'm guessing?

[gray pollen]

@graceful burrow how is Taylor Swift the most polluting individual? Is that a joke? I literally have ignored her always.

[graceful burrow]

Bro that convo was two fuckin hours ago Google it

[dusty dove]

cuz her ticket can be resold for alot more money

if her ticket wasn't flippable/profitable, no one would be yapping about it the last 2 weeks

[calm swan]

people have been flipping her tickets since they were announced 💀

[gray pollen]

What does that have to do with pollution?

[dusty dove]

ya because theres a demand

if it was NOT flippable, then no one would give a dam about pollution or whateever she does

[calm swan]

taylor swift make people drive to her concert in gas car which pollute air idk

[dusty dove]

im saying she's only in the headline because her ticket can be sold on secondary

so whatever she does, its gonna make people talk about it, polluting the air with traffic or taking city metro

[full fossil]

Money

[gray pollen]

There are actually so many reasons to dislike the woman but this sounds so dumb. I'm sorry I asked and also glad that I didn't waste 15 minutes googling/reading

[full fossil]

I have a diy question

Since I'm doing a bit of repairs on my wiiu is this going to cut it oh and what termal pad should I use

[dusty dove]

the only reason i dont like her is how she's bought up on a false pretense

she selling this story like she's from a humble background farm girl rural area and just happen to make it

which is not true, her parents were like some big fiance executive. humble background my ass, they were rich and could afford singing lessons for her

tha'ts how she made it

and u really think its a freaking coincidence that all her songs from her teen years are all about 'finding love, breaking up, falling in love' just happen to be at that time?
hell no, what i believe (i dont think most people even thought this thru) is bunch of guys in business suit sat around a business conference room and 'planned' out all her songs, album, how to market/dress to maximze profits

she could of have say in the songs, but i think she got tons and tons of help in the background that they play it off as 'she wrote it herself'

'humble country pop song girl happen to make it big, and you can too' is lot of bs

[gray pollen]

Pls stop wasting ur time

I'm not reading any of that.

[dusty dove]

then dont lmao, u the one on a text chat

[azure locust]

what a conversation 😂

[gray pollen]

I'm sorry, I know that's rude but the original 8 msg what'd she do conversation is truly all the conversation about her I can stomach.

[dusky osprey]

bro isnt the taylor swift pollution thing cause of how much she uses her private jet

why are you guys talking about people going to concerts and shit

[graceful burrow]

That wasn't even the reason I said it lmao

[graceful burrow]

Literally this

[gray pollen]

I'm glad people care enough about the environment but her fans don't care how abusive she is, they won't care about emissions so

[fossil frost]

i dont get why people think taylor swift, or any other artist, has any control over where it is they play. their management are the ones who control their tours and their tour dates. she will have some input, but wont be involved in chosing the venues, or most of the cities... the same as any other artist, they will go to where ever will host them and where they think they will sell out

[graceful burrow]

Yeah
It fucking sucks
People don't care enough about the environment

[gray pollen]

She'll keep flying her jet.

[dusky osprey]

she doesnt even need a jet to get to most her venues which is the thing

[fossil frost]

i never said anything about a jet, i said that she doesnt have control over where she plays, because people are going on like shes personally trying to find the worst possible set of dates for the environment

these dates are booked 2-3 years in advance, even when the tour is announced 6-12 months in advance, the venues are confirmed 12-24 months before that, by management, and thats the same for all artists, so your management does a scatter gun request to all the venues that they think you can sell out in all the cities, and then negotiate with the ones that reply, and then schedule based on that

[hearty spear]

what? she tours internationally. There's no efficient way to tour in the US on her scale without jets, let alone overseas

[fossil frost]

within the US can be done by tour bus quite easily, even on the scale of the event she puts on

[dusky osprey]

according to the study her average flights are 80mins

those aint international flights

[tardy terrace]

damb right i will

https://tenor.com/view/avion-transformers-a10-gif-18850999

[hearty spear]

but that 80 min flight will replace 8-10 hours on a bus

[fossil frost]

artists and their tours typically wont ship their whole tour setup between countries too, they hire from a central touring supplier in the individual regions, so its mostly just the core staff that will be snipped internationally

[graceful burrow]

Someone should establish Sam sites ngl

[gray pollen]

Hi! But also, pls no. I want to stay out of here until the Taylor conco is over. She triggers me so hard

[tardy terrace]

idk who we're talking about I just saw "she'll just keep flying her jet" and wanted to nerd flex

[hearty spear]

.... how TF does T.Swift trigger someone?

[gray pollen]

She probably needs the jet for safety, she attracts crazies bc She sucks

[fossil frost]

because they choose to dislike her because other people like her

[tardy terrace]

I love her voice but some of her latest songs are..

well, quite shit

[hearty spear]

"cuz I fuckin' hate her" ain't a trigger, just sayin'.
Triggers are /real/ things, and not something to fuckin' make light of

[graceful burrow]

She could offset her shit

She's got the money
Can't tell me she doesnt

[dusky osprey]

im not actually triggered i dont even care that much. i was just explaining also apperently in the first 6months she had 170 flights while the entire year of 2022 only had 5 concerts

[tardy terrace]

t-swifts got enough cash to afford a private e-plane and the solar farm to charge it

[fossil frost]

"she triggers me" isnt an actual trigger too... people use "triggers me" as "i dont like" or "i get angry because" all the time... "trigger" has lost all meaning

[gray pollen]

Nothing to do with her publicly trashing men for profit or anything. Okay. I'm going to walk for 3 hours for impulse control. Bye guys. Sry I'm crazy 😖

[tardy terrace]

no wait lemme come too

[fossil frost]

so you dont like adele either then? who gets into relationships, just to have a bad time, to get an album out of it

[hearty spear]

what about the decades of men singing shit about women for profit?
No? No biggie? K.

[fossil frost]

also her accent, is fucking horrible... as somebody who lives in the same country as her, her accent/talking voice is so fucking different to how actual humans talk, you would guess that she was from the moon

[tardy terrace]

Ah dear.

[hearty spear]

.... wut? America has tons of different accents.

[gray pollen]

Pinging a triggered schizophrenic makes you an asshol3 just to be clear

[tardy terrace]

america has like.. 15 accents

[fossil frost]

my CITY has about 15 accents

[tardy terrace]

..kay?

[dusky osprey]

idk she sounds fine ngl

[hearty spear]

The eastern end of my state has no fewer than 7. So, IDK where you get "15 in america"

[fossil frost]

people from outside of the UK dont seem to get that within a 20 mile radius, you can hit 20 different towns and 20 distinctively different accents, different enough to sound like you were from different countries

[tardy terrace]

It was a rough guesstimate without any deep thinking, y'all need to dial it back with how far y'all are taking this

[hearty spear]

AKA: You made shit up, and now that you got called out, you're trying to say it's NBD?
Got it. "Just joking, man!"

If ya gonna say something, own the fuck up to it.

[tardy terrace]

Holy shit you're angy, take a step back & touch some grass.

[fossil frost]

btw, back to woman making albums from men... pink, she did several albums about how horrible her bf's where, and how all men were terrible, but how she wants everything to be about her all the time... but still considered to be one of the biggest and best selling female (probably in general) artists ever

[idle nymph]

Lol who we talking trash bout today here?

[elfin jetty]

[graceful burrow]

Taylor swift

[fossil frost]

i feel that "do X and touch grass" has become the default "i have no other argument, so im going to make a basic insult that has lost all meaning so i can claim to myself that i won the argument"

[graceful burrow]

I started the argument because she pollutes so much

[hearty spear]

no, I just get annoyed at people who refuse to fuckin' own up to shit they say. HAR HAR, I JOKE

[hallow spoke]

Those are the best ones to win thoo

[elfin jetty]

Whats the concensus on Britney spears

[graceful burrow]

She ain't even around anymore boss

[idle nymph]

Why

[fossil frost]

shes started writing and touring again now that her abusive dad no longer has her as a legal slave

[tardy terrace]

PNW, Northern and southern cali, southern florida, carolinas, creole, texan, midwestern, northeast, new york, boston, maryland, wisconsin, montana, they all have their own dialects & accents, kindly go touch grass.

[elfin jetty]

She isnt dead though?

[graceful burrow]

Good for her maybe she won't pollute a lot

[graceful burrow]

When did I say she was

[hearty spear]

Boston, Southie, Gloucester, South Shore, and others are all accents in eastern MA Alone. It ain't one accent.

[fossil frost]

she has a residency contract in vegas from what i heard (she was the subject of a legal eagle video)

[elfin jetty]

You said she wasnt around, i took that as ya meant she died

[graceful burrow]

Why would I just blatantly lie like that

[tardy terrace]

Ah ok you're one of the dickheads who sits there like "oh you know x? list every variable"

Again, go touch some grass you overconfident turnip

[elfin jetty]

Its the internet, people constantly lie

[idle nymph]

🍿

[fossil frost]

<@&750150305383186585> abusive?

[hearty spear]

if that's what the argument's going to devolve to then:

"I'm rubber, you're glue! Bounces off me and sticks to you!"

Did I go childish enough?

[graceful burrow]

I don't lie hoss

[tardy terrace]

You're the one who jumped me?..

[elfin jetty]

I didnt say you do, then again i dont know you. How would i know?

[tardy terrace]

what the fuck is happening

[graceful burrow]

By not assuming

[elfin jetty]

Well what do you mean by not around then

[graceful burrow]

Hi langley
It wasn't me this time

[karmic flame]

Get along people. plz

[graceful burrow]

Not in the limelight

[elfin jetty]

Fair enough

[elfin jetty]

But moooom :(
