Just because it's a short terrible story doesn't mean you weren't talking about NSFW

[full fossil]

alright it's not worth arguing over

[vapid smelt]

only thing we are missing is the server and user name

[full fossil]

so can we just drop it please and I'll do my best not to do it again

[scarlet plover]

[gray pollen]

Is battlestations good for getting advice or is it just for showing off?

[scarlet plover]

don't be a lame virgin and report someone for not being 18 let a mf see some titties😭😭

[scarlet plover]

just ask tech chat

[gray pollen]

That's not what I asked

[scarlet plover]

someone's had a bad day

[gray pollen]

Are you blaming me for you having poor reading comprehension?

[scarlet plover]

Um I'll have you know I passed my English final exam

bot saved you from my crude comment

fatty

[granite tinsel]

if you need build advice you should go to #1106613567966429224

[gray pollen]

Would that be for like, cable management too?

[granite tinsel]

for cable management i'd ask the tech chat channels

[gray pollen]

So battlestations is just for showing off

[scarlet plover]

||you bref stank😭😭||

[full fossil]

If you make a post to show off your build, someone can give you recommendations on how to make it look better.

[sacred mauve]

Hey, so I had to send my phone back to the place I bought it from, they said they fixed it and are sending it back. They said in a message the crashing was due to the fact I had lots of apps installed on it including Google and Microsoft Cloud services. They recommend I buy a phone with 8+ Gb RAM and 256gb storage. Does this seem wrong. The iPhone is an SE 2020 64gb.

[gray pollen]

So would you post in battlestations or tech chat for TV/PC area organization/cable management

[full fossil]

#1019713714968088586

[gray pollen]

64gb storage/6gb memory stopped being enough for me in like 2018 so sounds plausible

[sacred mauve]

Like I do a bit of Google Sheets, almost never play games on it so they just take up space, watch videos and listen to music. I don't see why I would be crashing 30 seconds after launching the phone with no apps open in the background.

[gray pollen]

Because you have no storage and a ton of cache maybe?

[sacred mauve]

Could be, thanks. I was around 41gb used. I used less resources on my Moto G7 Plus 🤣

[full fossil]

With all the sketchy water cooling stuff LTT has done, I'm kinda shocked they havent done a diy water cooked psu yet

[gray pollen]

I love my S20 Ultra. It was used, only about $500 when I bought it at least a year ago. All my phones have been used for the last few years, highly recommend

[sacred mauve]

Thanks for the recommendation, I might get a Pixel 7 pro from a friend who might upgrade when the 8 pro comes out.

[gray pollen]

Everyone I know that has a pixel loves it

[sacred mauve]

Yeah, while my phone is getting sent back I'm using a 3xl. Only issue is the battery is 5 years old.

[gray pollen]

If only you could just switch the battery out

[full fossil]

It's a super easy fix ive replaced the one on my old 3XL with no real issues

[sacred mauve]

I might switch the battery depending on when my iPhone comes and if it breaks down again.

[full fossil]

Could be worth it. I don't use my anymore outside of stat monitoring on my computer. But I did it better then my constantly overheating 5a

[tropic remnant]

alternative to macrium that you recommend?
need an HDD/SSD imaging solution

Any devices which helps to reduce eye strain,headaches even if stare my eyes longtime on monitor, TV,mobile?

[vapid smelt]

use a blue light filter on your device

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TX7VFG524ZA

most phones have a setting

or get a robotic eye in 2098

[full fossil]

unfortunately using blue light filters ruin colour accuracy

[past egret]

hmm i wonder why

[wispy marsh]

Apple recently implemented a new feature in iOS17 that blurs out the entire screen if you look at it too closely

[past egret]

blue light.... idk idk idk

sitting far away and playing games on TV will be good unfortunately i have gtx 1060 6gb which doesn't support HDMI 2.1 🥺

[vapid smelt]

gtx 1060 6gb, 6gb gddr5x, mining only version or the 1060 6 GB 9Gbps?

[full fossil]

any pascal gpu wouldn't work HDMI 2.1

since from GTX 1660 turning architecture HDMI 2.1 supports.

I have MSI GTX 1060 6gb Gaming X 6G card

well i can play games at 1080p 120fps or 4k 60fps on 4k 120hz TV but not 4k 120fps

[graceful burrow]

I mean
It's not like it wouldn't output

You edited right as I said it smh

[full fossil]

yeah i usually play 2d indie games either pixelated or hand drawn mostly .

so gtx 1060 6gb pulls 4k or 1080p 120fps for these games .

for now i should stick with 1080p 120fps then as HDMI 2.0 🥺

[vapid smelt]

i was just making a joke about how novideo made like 9 models of the gtx 1060

[full fossil]

didn't knew it

what is my model then ? 🤔

[vapid smelt]

gtx 1060 3gb, 5gb, 6gb, 6gb gddr5x, mining only version or the 1060 6 GB 9Gbps then probably one or two others i forgot for the desktop models

Herman Miller doesn't let you claim warranty if you're not the original owner.

Imagine tech manufacturers doing that. Apple calls first!

[tepid jasper]

they don't?

that's actually fucked af, too bad i want a used one still because herman miller name be kinda hot

need me a mirra

[past egret]

they usually dont need service

tend to last a lifetime

[tepid jasper]

honestly buying a herman miller is way more of a flex than a 4090 or something

if i walked into someone's house and they spent 2000 dollars on a fucking chair i'd be floored

[past egret]

yes i have an aeron :))

[tepid jasper]

new or used?

[past egret]

new

[tepid jasper]

ok when the day that we eat the rich comes we are coming for you first

[near nymph]

Hermann Millers are comfy

[past egret]

its not with me its back my home country

[tepid jasper]

oh

[past egret]

i think my dad is using it in the living room

[near nymph]

If we eat the poor. There will be no more poverty

[tepid jasper]

god i need the government to gimme back my money that i had to use to pay off my tuition then i will buy one

[tepid jasper]

east van would be fucking barren then xd

desolate if you will

[near nymph]

The rich will just build more real estate project

[past egret]

why eat the rich they dont even have real meat

its all plastic anyway

[tepid jasper]

because we have to get back at the man

[wispy marsh]

I got a used Aeron. All it needs is a wipedown from all my summer sweat

[tepid jasper]

[wispy marsh]

Also, don't get the posturefit version

[tepid jasper]

it's ok i want a mirra anyways

[past egret]

yeah get the lumbar one

ive tested both the lumbar is way better

[tepid jasper]

do they not come standard with adjustable lumbar...?

[past egret]

yes but the posturefit is different

[tepid jasper]

oh

i don't know shit about chairs, i'm just trynna buy a leap v2 or aeron or mirra, whichever i get a better deal on

[past egret]

check embody

those are also solid

[wispy marsh]

Aeron for me

[tepid jasper]

ain't embodys expensive af?

[wispy marsh]

Always. Because summer and mesh

[alpine gale]

Work let us take the Mirra 2 chairs from the office when we moved to work from home. They're nice, but hard to justify spending $1500 CAD of my own money on.

[tepid jasper]

it's the logitech one no?

[wispy marsh]

Mmhmm

[tepid jasper]

yeah pretty much what my dad said to me lol

but if i can get one for about 600ish cad, from an office liquidator or the like its chill i think

600 doesnt feel like a lot for something that id be spending a lot of time using

[wispy marsh]

I got aeron classic + atlas for ~650

Couldn't justify looking at lesser chairs after that

I could justify $20~$40 chairs for not-myself though

As Bob said, "of my own money"

[tepid jasper]

surprised we havent seen much chair upgrades on intel or amd ultimate upgrades tbh

[past egret]

any chair after ive sat on the aeron ive just hated

i miss it so much at home

Does anyone, by any chance, have an idea as to what can be done regarding a falsely suspended reddit account?
Appeals aren't working, support emails get no response either.

Context:
Malware fk'd me over and instead of letting me know that I was hijacked (like other apps did), reddit just permanently suspended 2 accounts of mine and doesn't let me create new ones either. I need it as a platform to share things/ask questions at least and this situation just sucks.

[manic torrent]

reddit does not give a fuck about you, sorry

it's basically a hostile platform to users at this point.

[sturdy pebble]

True, been watching the platform collapse with the API changes. Just wish a human would handle support

[chilly ravine]

No recourse. Reddit permabanned me and rejected my appeal even though I did nothing wrong.

[sturdy pebble]

Are you able to create and use an alt tho?

It seems I cant do that. Probably an IP ban.

Thanks to this moment

All of my emails were taken over, and whilst i could recover quickly and figure out how, the damage on my account was already inflicted

[minor shoal]

does anyone have a good recommendation for an RGB fan that I can attach to my heatsink? There's nothing wrong with my current CPU fan, but its color (gray) does not match the rest of the system (black & white). I tried putting a Phanteks D30 fan on it (as it would match the other fans in the system - also D30s), but it was too thick, the metal clips couldn't reach the heatsink. So basically I need suggestions for a fan that has a black frame, but has RGB or just able to display the color white.

Do you think this one would fit? It looks pretty small and is only 25mm thick compared to the 30mm of the D30s. https://phanteks.com/PH-F120SK-DRGB.html

It's a small difference (0,5 cm), but could be all I need.

Google photos on my phone, Picasa on my pc. Can access everything from all devices 🙂

[manic torrent]

Exactly. Use a cloud offering, harden up.

[fierce moth]

too much effort to have a local solution

[gentle slate]

is google photos ui still ass

[fierce moth]

its actually pretty good ngl

[fossil frost]

It's a gallery wall. It's ui is the same as all others

[gentle slate]

I remember when I setup photo backup on my phone with google photos. And it also backed up every single screenshot I've ever made. And it had no option to turn off screenshots

[nova ingot]

Anyone ever have an awkward moment when they're about to buy something before they realized they already have it? Was looking for a case for a 4 bay NAS before I realized i already bought one :/

[fossil frost]

Stop trying to create excuses for your own prejudice/blind hate/stupidity and just use it, and use it properly

[desert crest]

hey

[gentle slate]

?????

[desert crest]

is audioengine a2+ good

[gentle slate]

It literally didn't have an option to disable screenshot backups

[nova ingot]

Featured photo of the day: Some random discord/chat you took a picture of 15 months ago.

[gentle slate]

Literally.

[fossil frost]

It asks you which directories you want to allow outside of your camera directory, always has. If it backs up your screenshots, it's because it asked you and you said yes

[gentle slate]

iirc it backups DCIM by default, which also includes Screenshots

The only thing you can disable or enable are other directories.

[fossil frost]

DCIM has never stores screenshots, they are always stored elsewhere

[gentle slate]

depends on phone

[forest remnant]

no, that seems like a too much money problem

[gentle slate]

My screenshot folder is literally in DCIM

[nova ingot]

maybe you accidently set up DCIM as screenshots at some point?

[gentle slate]

it's a brand new phone

Screenshots were in DCIM on my S4, S9 and S23 now

[shut lichen]

can confirm, screenshots is in DCIM on samsung

[fossil frost]

DCIM clearly stores camera only. Pictures/Screenshots stores screenshots

[gentle slate]

[fossil frost]

Samsung are idiots then

[shut lichen]

[fierce moth]

what webui is everyone using for their server?

[gentle slate]

idk each time i've tried using cloud storage it was just annoying

[fierce moth]

i was thinking of installing cockpit

[fossil frost]

?

[shut lichen]

other than the proxmox one on proxmox, none, they're dumb

[gentle slate]

? Nothing.

Said multiple times that screenshots are stored in DCIM on Samsung yet you chalked it up to "my ignorance and stupidity"

[fierce moth]

i use arch btw (dont kill me pls)

[forest remnant]

oneui 5 doesn't store ss's in dcim

[shut lichen]

you're using arch on a server?

[gentle slate]

Then why are they in DCIM bruv

[fierce moth]

yeah, its nothing critical tho

[shut lichen]

https://tenor.com/view/stop-it-get-some-help-gif-15058124

[fierce moth]

only plex and some light game storage

[forest remnant]

prolly updated from oneui 4 idk

[gentle slate]

Wait does S23 come with oneui 4 at all

[fierce moth]

nah it should be oneui 5

[gentle slate]

then it still saves in DCIM

Imma go find a diff tech server tbh. Some elitism by some members in here.

[forest remnant]

true

maybe it changed idk but https://www.reddit.com/r/samsung/comments/107yaym/screenshots_finally_are_now_stored_outside_dcim/

[gentle slate]

neat. Guess the default still is in DCIM

[forest remnant]

yea idk

my screenshots are in dcim on my s22u

[fierce moth]

s22u gang

[gentle slate]

wouldve gotten an s23u if it was rounded

s23+ works fine doe.

Watching Micheal MJDs upload from earlier today. Would love to see LTT do an episode on the Touchscreen IMacs from the late 90s

Cool little bit of tech

Windows 11's context menus are irritating

[timid meadow]

Im still on 10. Ill upgrade eventually

[blazing orbit]

I'll upgrade when Windows 10 LTSC runs out

[gentle slate]

Can Linux become relevant faster

[timid meadow]

Im just lazy. The plan was originally to ride 10 to EOL. But now im just toying with an eternal windows install ahaha. My system should have crashed ages ago. Its been live cloned and messed with so many times. When i upgrade to 11, im gunna do it through windows upgrade just to see how long this windows image can really last

[gentle slate]

I feel bad for your PC ngl

[timid meadow]

I have done everything to this install i tell people not to do on this server, yet somehow it lives!

[gentle slate]

I wipe my PC once a year and turn it into a clean slate

[timid meadow]

I just occasionally backup to my server and dont intentionally keep anything mission critical in windows

[fierce moth]

are you doing some frankenstein stuff?

[timid meadow]

Nah, regular rig outside of the windows image itself. This install has been on 2 different hdds and like 3 different ssds

Live cloned in macreum every time

Plus all the toying around ive done in that time.

It has a few minor issues with destop icons and stuff but if thats all thats breaking so far i think its doing surprisingly well

[fierce moth]

now downgrade it to windows 3.1 for lols

[low rain]

I heard people talking and when I looked outside it’s my neighbor and his daughter going on a walk at 1:40am

And they r so loud like bro I js wanna sleep

[fierce moth]

well call the cops

[low rain]

Nah they r chill neighbors js kinda annoying sometimes

[dreamy rose]

how about the opposite, Runing Gentoo with Kernel 6.0 on a Pentium 1?

[timid meadow]

Ive got a custom 11 iso already prepped that i used on a buddys build recently. I have 0 reason to not clean install. Might live clone this windows image onto another ssd and move it to an old rig to keep playing with. Really confuse it by dropping it onto an fx 4350

[fierce moth]

nah nah, react OS

[dreamy rose]

i mean 3.1 is very possible to run on a modern system. if you can run 98 you can do 3.1.

[gentle slate]

is 2024 the year of linux

[dreamy rose]

2025

[fierce moth]

i agree with 2025

[timid meadow]

Every year is supposedly the year of linux.

[dreamy rose]

win 10 dies in 2025. it'll be then

[blazing orbit]

I'm due for that but havent

I want to setup a method of keeping most of my stuff in my nas and not have to deal with multiple copies of stuff

[verbal yarrow]

Hello, does anyone know how to fix WIndows 11 issue, that if I open pinned folder from the file explorer that is pinned to my task bar, it does not get automatic focus as in Windows 10 that I cannot instantly search other folders inside with the keys I need to first click inside to folder to get the focus and just then I can type, its annoying

[dreamy rose]

i haven't done my necessary wipe in a while either. mainly cause i need to reset my Discord Gmail.

[ashen zodiac]

y'all said the same thing when 7 died, and it didn't happen

[dreamy rose]

Folders pinned to the taskbar?

[blazing orbit]

I have multiple copies of photos strewn all over my computer. I just need to take some time to organize then I need to do a fresh install

[ashen zodiac]

you mean 3024?

[fierce moth]

but at least old systems could run 10, unlike 11

[ashen zodiac]

you can run 11 on the same systems, all you need is an easy bypass of the requirements

[dreamy rose]

yeah 10 still runs on old as shit 11 officially doesnt cause of TPM.

[gentle slate]

man if Linux was good

[ashen zodiac]

which is easy to bypass

[gentle slate]

I wanna ditch windows but cba with the random incompatible software with no replacement

[dreamy rose]

true but you think majority care to figure it out?

[verbal yarrow]

yes you pin the file explorer into task bar and then you can click on any folders saved on drives, and you can right click -> Pin to quick access and then you can find them there

[ashen zodiac]

it's not 2015 anymore, most people don't run Core 2 era machines now. most users have at least an i5 with 8gb of ram

[fierce moth]

which is pushing it for windows lol

[gentle slate]

Pinned tabz https://i.imgur.com/hFvOwDr.png

[ashen zodiac]

i know a lot of normies who have. it's so simple to google

[ashen zodiac]

what? Windows runs fine on those specs

[dreamy rose]

so you meant the Quick access menu and not the taskbar.

[fierce moth]

8gb is terrible with windows

[dreamy rose]

facts

[fierce moth]

coming from personal experience

[ashen zodiac]

close your 735 browser tabs and then it's fine

[dreamy rose]

8GB is plenty for Linux.

[gentle slate]

how do people tolerate 735 tabs

[verbal yarrow]

yes, and from there if you open anything you cannot search folders via keys because the window does not have focus

[gentle slate]

I max out at 10 tabs. After that if I open a tab, I close a tab

[ashen zodiac]

i agree 16gb is better but 8gb is fine

[fierce moth]

depending on what monitor im using ill adjust my tabs accordingly

[timid meadow]

My phone will hit like 15 tabs on a single browser sometimes. I get annoyed by any more then like 6 on desktop

[gentle slate]

Hmm. I wanna install Arch on my laptop. Can I use my phone as a live usb coz I forgot my usb?

[dreamy rose]

9 Tabs, Task manager and Discord uses 6.3GB of RAM.

[fierce moth]

nah soz

[dreamy rose]

highly doubt.

[gentle slate]

wack. Phones are literally useless bricks

[ashen zodiac]

which is not 8, so it's fine. most casual users don't open much more than that

[timid meadow]

But its easier to rack up tabs on my phone because i have quicksearch stuff on. So im always going straight from my home screen to google searches

[gentle slate]

I should get firefox on my laptop. Edge is nasty

[fierce moth]

facts

[dreamy rose]

you throw a game in there you get screwed.

[gentle slate]

actually what browser do yall use? Have any of yall used Vivaldi?

[timid meadow]

Nova launcher+sesame search= double tap my homescreen to access anything on my phone or web. Shits so smooth

[ashen zodiac]

that's the same on Linux lmfao. opening Overwatch on my Steam Deck pushes it over 8gb

[ashen zodiac]

i just use Chrome

[gentle slate]

ive been using Firefox. Feels dank

[fierce moth]

i just have stock one ui, with back tap for google assistant

[fierce moth]

chome on windows and phone, firefox on arch partition

[timid meadow]

Im a boomer who still rejects mobile assistants all together. No hey google or siri for me

[gentle slate]

I cant find a use for vocie assistants. I have a strong accent and it fails to recognize what im saying

[dreamy rose]

not exactly true, i could open any of my games and have a grand old time with tabs + discord on linux. the problem is every other part of my PC.

[fierce moth]

they can be handy but a pain at times

[gentle slate]

they also fail miserably when I say something that isnt an english word

[dreamy rose]

all they are to me is something to fuck around and have fun with. sometimes it just gets in the way.

[fierce moth]

i cant really use google assistant to play music cause i use plexamp

[ashen zodiac]

the only thing i use Siri for is turning off all my alarms since i set like 20 (i can't wake up lmfao)

[gentle slate]

20 in a row?

My S23 for some reason doesnt play consecutive alarms. I had an alarm for 7:00 and 7:30 and it simply skips the latter alarm

[timid meadow]

Some people need it. Others like me wake up 10 mins before their alarm no matter what time its set for

[gentle slate]

I always thought I sleep through all my alarms, but I merely sleep through the first and the others dont go off

[dreamy rose]

Voice Recognition will always suck. especially with Accents,

[timid meadow]

I dont have a deal with my isp, they just dont care

[dusty rune]

i mean, i dont have a deal with the isp and no cease and desisit letters reach me either
not even nintendo

[gentle slate]

tbh they dont really care either. Since they didnt allow me into the router I asked them to open a specific port for p2p traffic and they did

[dreamy rose]

eh. sure touchscreen sucks but it has times it works.

[fierce moth]

aka ds games

[timid meadow]

Accidentally filled the first 10TB of my server without a vpn (was misconfigured) and comcast didnt say a word

anything adding triggers and sticks is a Problem. else its fine,

the z fold is a godsend for ds games

[gentle slate]

I aint use no VPN

[dusty rune]

god i need one

[gentle slate]

do I get a VPN? Actually do I even need one..? What will I use it for

[fierce moth]

ngl they're looking pretty good now

[timid meadow]

If you get one, go Mullvad

[fierce moth]

they improved a lot

[gentle slate]

wasnt mullvad super expensive

[timid meadow]

5 bucks a month

[gentle slate]

I already bleed 30$ a month on subs for games

[gentle slate]

oh nvm I get mullvad that's essentially free.

[timid meadow]

Ive ranted about em before. Im sure you can search my name in here and find the pic of the results of them being raided if you want

[fierce moth]

ima set up a retronas server

[gentle slate]

wait wym.. Theyre bad or?? They got raided because they didnt give up data?

[timid meadow]

Hey! Adobe Premiere Pro 2022 is crashing for meafter deleting preferences and media files. I deleted media crash files and preferences by tapping double click on the icon of the app and pressing Alt+Shift but after that I cannot create or open any files because it will either crash, send me an error report or say "serious error occured" if I press file - open. Before this it worked perfectly fine and I could open and create new files, but it was telling me it was running low on memory so I tried fixing it.

[gentle slate]

reinstall and itll fix itself.

i bet you 100% that a TF2 or Half Life movie would be 1000x better.

[fierce moth]

It would be hl3

[gentle slate]

romance movie with Ms. Pauling and Scout

[dreamy rose]

well maybe not HL3 but it would be done in Source 2 by valve (if not Worked alongside valve with extreme levels of attention to detail put on the animating studio.)

It could tbh

what about Ricochet? or Artifact?

[idle nymph]

Ricochet as a battle royal typa movie

Like squid game or idk

Didnt play artifact tho

Ricochet would have annoying ass screams

Left 4 dead 2 or half life 3 or Portal movie would be perfect

Half life alyx already look like a movie tbh

hey guys, i wanna ask something
if i prefer to buy prebuild like hp, lenovo thinkcenter etc, is the psu still capable for long run or maybe save some money to build from scratch?
thanks for ur response

[shut lichen]

PSUs in prebuilts tend to only be powerful enough to run the what's in the prebuilt

and depending on the model, may not even be a standard size

[latent terrace]

the answer is that it always depends. generally power supplies from prebuilds tend to be unreliable and you may spend more money building it from scratch. you just have to research what you can comfortably afford and upgrade from there

[shut lichen]

I'd never even dare to re-use a prebuilt's power supply, even if it was a normal size and powerful enough for my uses

but that's just me

[full fossil]

They don’t make the PSU Ethan you’re insane

[pulsar fulcrum]

oh i see, so maybe build from scratch is better for the long run rather just buy prebuild?

[shut lichen]

I never said they did? go take your Schizophrenia meds

[pulsar fulcrum]

the psu in prebuild is totally different than psu from the market right?
so if the psu broken, i can't just buy psu and slap in the prebuild pc?

[latent terrace]

if it's like most prebuilds then you should be able to replace it with any good atx power supply

[pulsar fulcrum]

i see, thanks for the advice guys😁

hope you guys have a nice day

[gray pollen]

I trust the FSP power supply my prebuilt came with more than the corsair one I replaced it because FSP, but go off about how this brand new company is more trustworthy than the company that's been doing this forever.

[gray pollen]

No, contact them for an RMA

[shut lichen]

lol what? how about some diagnosing first.

[mint yacht]

That's not something you RMA for

[shut lichen]

it's not unusual for a 253W chip to thermal throttle if the cooling ain't good enough, or isn't mounted correctly

[fallow folio]

i am cooling it with 360 AIO with thermaltake socket bracket installed
also disabled thermal limit in bios

[gray pollen]

Google would've told them that, so RMA

Intel can tell them

[fallow folio]

https://www.reddit.com/r/intel/comments/102s2ux/temps_hit_100_degrees_celcius_on_i9_13900k_in/

found in comments "intel support confirming 100c is normal."

[gray pollen]

Whatever you think your point is, my point is you should've done that before asking

Or contact the manufacturer

[shut lichen]

oh you disabled the thermal limit? that'd be why

if you allow it to go above the 253W limit, it'll go until it hits whatever other limit, or the temperature limit

[fallow folio]

I mean, it's okay to leave it like that? or it will be better to enable it again

[shut lichen]

and in this case, the temp limit is 100

[shut lichen]

I wouldn't trust it to last as long without the limit on

sure 100 ain't gonna kill it now, but it surely can't be good long term

[fallow folio]

well, it gives me 15% performance boost
but okay

[shut lichen]

it's already a crazy powerful chip

if you really want that performance, go for it

I'd be more concerned for the motherboard VRMs than the cpu itself

it better be a board with good ones

[fallow folio]

[shut lichen]

not a basic board then, good

how tf do i set up shared directories in vm's to auto mount

[gentle slate]

Yall, Vivaldi lets you bookmark a specific page and give it a nickname. When you type its nickname in the address bar it auto suggests the bookmark and goes that specific page. can you do that on Firefox?

eg if I wanna bookmark the ltt forums, I can bookmark it and name it "ltt". Typing ltt will send me to the forums

[shut lichen]

idk, haven't used firefox in forever, been too busy enjoying vivaldi

[gentle slate]

I tried doing it out of the box. The bookmark appears wayy below at the bottom of the suggestions

I might just stick to Vivaldi tbh

[shut lichen]

it's been just over 6 years since I started using it

[gentle slate]

I've been using Firefox for awhile. Solid browser.

[full fossil]

Yep I only use chrome when work stuff demands it

I used chrome for awhile when Firefox reworked its engine or whatever and killed off all addons.

it has finally smoothed out all the kinks

[gentle slate]

ah. I dont dev. Im a simple consumer

[dreamy rose]

Vivaldi pulls school duty. thats all it is for me.

[manic torrent]

That should do it

At least with the four buttons I can easily hack it to control from an ESP32 along with my video switches, so I can seperately switch the keyboard and monitors.

ive already put one up ill continue from there

is there any monitor tools that can help me track driver errors or some sort when it happens again?

ive got another monitor hooked up to the motherboard's hdmi port so in case the main gpu fails i can still see the other monitor

noticed when it fails the other monitor is shows that nothing is responding as well so my suspicion with the whole pc freezing is right

my last resort is to hand it off to some repair guys downstairs but ill try to fix this tonight

[cinder aspen]

I wonder if LTT will do, AMD and Intel Tech Upgrade revisit, revisiting the ones they upgraded so far and see if what Linus did was still there or some of the upgrades died/replaced.

TLDW: Linus Media Group is not your friend. They are basically a corporation like every other one. They're a lot more transparent of course, but they don't make videos just for your entertaiment or for education - they want them moneys

money is reason why there is a sponsor in every video, money is the reason why they treated ASUS so kindly in Secret Shopper

It never looks good when you don't watch the video and just reply about it. It makes you look dimwitted

[wise mesa]

imagine saying this when you obvi havent watched the video yet

[solemn dagger]

I love my screwdriver but him attacking people for calling out nonsense regarding the warranty and gn for falling to take into consideration “personal relationships “ was a stupid move by Linus. Steve was right to call it out and right to not let personal relationships get in the way

[dull granite]

and they would earn 2/3 of current revenue

Eh fair

ALSO better quality = bigger investments

GN are the brand I really trust, Steve has taken brands etc to account time and time again. LTT Labs have a long way before getting a fraction of the credibility GN has.

[analog reef]

I just hope it comes down to linus admitting they have to reduce the amount of videos and give more time for quality

[sand star]

so if he watches it and reacts to it he breaks his word i suppose

[tepid hound]

can anyone suggest me a free paraphrasing tool except quilbot?

[sand star]

so I guess either Linus watches it and breaks his word, or he doesn't watch it and gets blasted

I'm 3 minutes in and I'm already dissapointed. I kind of wanted to see all major tech-tubers complementing each other on different testing methodologies. I saw Gamers Nexus willing to test sound, thermals, getting equipment for it, LTT moving towards sound/bandwidth/signalling, Hardware Unboxes doing comparisons between gpus and massive endless testings, J2C being a sort of 'voice of reason', Der8uer revolutionizing the cooling industry/bringing new stuff to the table, along with all other tech tubers that try, their best, to bring something new to the table.

tldr steve says linus should do better.

[wise mesa]

the video is 44 minutes and has only been out for 38

[rugged vessel]

Jesus

[graceful mulch]

I was watching at 2x

[fresh flower]

J2C being a sort of 'voice of reason',

[onyx obsidian]

TL;DW:
Steve insults LMG for no reason except for making themselves morally superior

[tepid jasper]

j2c is the least reliable tech reviewer lmfao

[hearty spear]

I'm listening to GN throw shade at Linus/LMG/Labs....
And.... most of his critiques are pretty damned solid.

[rugged vessel]

I meant something maybe a little less biased…

[north spear]

biased

[full fossil]

Tbf he’s just correct

[wise mesa]

its not throwing shade its just criticism.

[tepid jasper]

thats not a tldw thats a i didnt watch heres just random bullshit

[sand star]

ain't nobody getting banned here for discussing this in normal way. mods here have weird rules sometimes, but it is what it is.

[dusky osprey]

why are you salty on behalf on linus lmao

[graceful mulch]

yup GN was a little too correct 🤣

[spark pendant]

As long as Linus and his company take this seriously respond well and ACTUALLY change then it’s okay.

[hearty spear]

watch it: LMG is sinking their own ship. Just sayin'.

[graceful mulch]

let's see how they respond

[full fossil]

Fr if anyone does I’ll just boycott anything ltt because that’d be pathetic

[onyx obsidian]

If you consider J2C as the least reliable tech reviewer, then you don't know about dumbasses like Pollo from Tortilla Squad and Michael Quesada

[sand star]

Look at the bright side, we're getting apology video this week.

[south stone]

They have been lacking a bit on the benchmark side, you can't just really go and call out gamers nexus when they provide way more data than LTT has been doing on past reviews.

[tepid jasper]

never heard of them

[hearty spear]

lots of mad gamer

[spark pendant]

Hopefully it’s a good response though I do want to know if everybody is going crazy and running around over there

[solemn dagger]

Complete nonsense, you are being childish

[wise mesa]

No they cant theyre just upset because their fav tech tuber was rightfully called out

[wary marlin]

in an airport, desperately need to use WiFi, but don't have a VPN and really cannot afford to have any data nabbed. Ideas?

[rugged vessel]

Guys, this ain’t gonna be the death of LTT

Chances are LTT will either take this as constructive feedback and move on or respond and make this into some drama

[wise mesa]

buy a vpn

[sand star]

Opera has vpn.

[tepid jasper]

[full fossil]

The best part is if it gets bad I can just cut the LTT patch off my backpack

[spark pendant]

Yeah change and respond well

[hearty spear]

are you doing something that's secret or proprietary?

[eternal hearth]

they talked about the fact checking on the wan show but apparently they don't even double check what they write themselves

[wary marlin]

it's public WiFi that's all

[calm swan]

thats stupid and would make the situation worse

[wary marlin]

it's work stuff and some of it is like under NDA etc

[fresh flower]

"Death to GN" u ok buddy?

[wise mesa]

If its that important literally just spend $10 on a vpn for the time being

[full fossil]

Yea I have a bit of ltt merch and it’s nice stuff

[fresh flower]

not everything has to be a flame war

[tepid jasper]

they have entertaining but incorrect content, unfortunately

[hearty spear]

buy a VPN for a month or 3.

[spark pendant]

I mean if you don’t have a VPN then it’s already been nabbed if not by the airport than your isp

[wary marlin]

very obviously not the same concern, my guy

[sand star]

Basically good TLDR seems to be that Steve is saying LMG has overextended at the cost of quality and data accuracy and isn't learning from their mistakes.

[eternal hearth]

but look linsu drop the gpu lol haha

[solemn dagger]

They moved away from that stuff a while ago and are only getting their feet back into it with the lab …… employees taking pot shots at competitors is not the way to go about it.
And Linus getting salty at Steve for Steve doing what he does best, going after anyone in the wrong is dumb.

[south stone]

They are actually being extremely polite for the jab that LTT employee took at steve.

[primal raft]

Oof

[wary marlin]

it's not like public WiFi is easier to intercept messages compared to any other regular connection, right?

[sterile rivet]

Wtf is happening

Hey guys im buildin my pc rn, I have extra fans from my aio. Should I do a double sided fan radiator.

Steve is a pro, something some at LMG need to learn

[sand star]

latest GN video, 45mins of blasting LMG.

We need to find where the GN studio is located, so we can bulldoze it

Why you had to do that? now this channel is getting muted..

[primal raft]

Bullshit

[deft magnet]

Fr, no way people being serious about this

[solemn dagger]

Pathetic

[wary marlin]

windows' warning is honestly super misleading imo. Makes it sound like the passworded WiFi is somehow better encrypted, but ig it really isn't if everyone is on the network

[fresh flower]

nothing of value will be lost

this is the wakeup call lmg needs, yall need to stop being salty

[calm swan]

why

[tepid jasper]

they have death to gn and i love ltt in their profile what do you expect

[sterile rivet]

nobody should be punished for the truth

[spark pendant]

It would be the same if it was reversed

[primal raft]

Purge when.

[tepid jasper]

wdym by that

[sterile rivet]

Purge this channel if you think the age of consent should be lowered to 2

[sterile rivet]

there
Now they can’t purge it

[pure olive]

Now people are just getting stupid

[tepid jasper]

The one thing it can fix potentially is "MITM" fake wifi networks, by encrypting your data till it's past your local network

I wouldn't want to be on LMG today or this week. Ufffffff.

[hearty spear]

[wary marlin]

what?

is it free?

[fresh flower]

i find your takes to be lukewarm at times

[tepid jasper]

ok thats fair

[hearty spear]

people do it by spoofing the network name / password. you can't know.
That's the whole point.

I have a question. Be honest, would you work for a YouTuber full time.

[primal raft]

Being hugely incorrect on data and doesn’t correct it obviously only after being pointed out

[sterile rivet]

Twitter user???

[timid meadow]

A jobs a job

[onyx obsidian]

It depends on the YouTuber

[wary marlin]

there's only one network with this name, so if someone is spoofing it, they're not doing a very good job

[sterile rivet]

But mostly, yes

[sterile rivet]

Don’t care, I will continue to call it Twitter

Or as NPR Identifies it:

Fr, like imagine trying to start a new business idea, ur pumped about it, and then you send it to someone you prolly look up to and they hate your product, must be devastating

[proper flame]

public chats a bit spicy atm, may i suggest, you move to #tech-chat-1 ?

[spark pendant]

Just because prices are different in different places

[sterile rivet]

#off-topic message

[tepid jasper]

why does this message sound so ominous despite the fact that you're just affirming where they live in order to determine what is the best deal using local pricing

[timid meadow]

They hate your product over their own mistakes at that

[spark pendant]

It’s an art

[muted relic]

And then when you asked for the Prototype back, LTT said they would, then ended up actioning it off in LTX, a place with lots of competators in the cooling scene.

[primal raft]

Jesus, gn has 25 minutes of constant mistakes

[spark pendant]

Depending on the contract/agreement couldn’t LMG be sued

[muted relic]

Like that, is horribly unforgivable and might be the worst thing shown in this video

[sterile rivet]

Lawsuit time

[primal raft]

25 minutes of mistakes is slot

[south stone]

Well... they didn't threw the first punch. xD

[deft magnet]

Its just sad

[muted relic]

If Billet Labs goes down, you can probably pin it entirely on LTT

[tepid jasper]

and you forgot its non exhaustive at that

[river narwhal]

This video goes hard

[deft magnet]

Yeah, honestly

[muted relic]

Billet Labs is stalled right now cause their best prototype is just gone

[spark pendant]

They better file a lawsuit

[timid meadow]

People in the community are good. I expect itll get back into billets hands eventually. Was a charity auction anyway right? Not as if it was a direct purchase so to say

[sterile rivet]

if lawsuits don’t work then it’s time for domestic terrorism :trollface:

[primal raft]

What?

Like extremely confusion graphics

[austere vine]

That would ruin them too because of LTT fan backlash

[full fossil]

Bruh chill out

[tepid jasper]

gn said that they didnt have time to cover everything, it's a non exhasutive list

[muted relic]

That is a possiblity, but it has not happened yet. I am assuming the worse until proven otherwise.

[spark pendant]

It would but hopefully people are able to not be stupid

[primal raft]

O shit…

[graceful mulch]

Shouldn't LMG cover the costs for billet labs proto?
That seems like the obvious fix for the fuck up

[muted canyon]

why the 3060?

[austere vine]

It is not like they can just make another "best prototype"

if they could they would have

[dull granite]

@vague flicker Here's your TL;DW:

• LTT videos have a lot of errors - **from minor mistakes to sometimes a major data error__ (like CPU Cooler benchmark), or 5600X3D review ("""99 megabytes of cache")
• Overuse of asterisks error corrections - a lot of error corrections by asterisks without changing the audio or video which might be problematic cuz some people just listen to a video
• Sucking sponsors' toes: blanket statements for ASUS, claiming a 600$ is a budget GPU
• Corporate connections conflicting with reviews (investsted 200k$ in Framework and yet reviewing laptops from Framework and it competetors)
• BilletLabs GPU block review - LTT made a half-assed video about thier product (they tried to fit a 4090 in a 3090/Ti block), and harming them by dumb WanShow excuses, and selling thier prototype block at LTX to potential competetors
• Dumb Pwnage mouse review - they didn't remove the protective plastic and fucked up the mouse smoothness during the review, probably killing the potential mouse sales.

[spark pendant]

I’m subscribed to floatplane but tbh if LTT don’t respond well and fix there shit within a month or so ima be pissed and stop paying them

[graceful mulch]

I don't care if it was worse than dogshit you don't auction off someone else's stuff

ahh missed that apologies

[spark pendant]

He’s doing work and VR. I don’t know what type of work but if it’s production or anything like that the 3060 is better than the 2070S

[primal raft]

The last one is the most fucked up

[muted relic]

That Waterblock one is easily the worst one there on that list. If Linus has any ethical sense like he claims he does, he should be paying for all costs to replace that block.

[south stone]

Oh boy they tested the peerless assassin backwards? XD

[muted relic]

As well as paying for lost time in the company since they need to halt everything until they get another prototype

[graceful mulch]

How does one even auction the damn thing when you got it for a review 😮‍💨

[spark pendant]

And at least pay to get the owners out of any debt that may have been caused by what was said

[calm swan]

i hate the look of tesla cars

[tepid jasper]

or retrieve it at any cost

the pwnage mouse was just hilarious, they accept their fault then give feedback to pwnage
