[tired glade]

Proton isn't abandoned and it will get better

[gleaming harbor]

i had to use the registry folder to disable edge installing after an update

[tired glade]

That's sounds like a virus

[indigo plume]

And I doubt 90% of windows users use that shit

[slim yacht]

i like how this chat will somehow shove people into liking what they use lol. like a choice of os they want to gun in

[opal thunder]

Eh it’s okay unless you are using arch

[indigo plume]

Only time ppl use that shit is for trouble shooting

And most ppl just look up on YouTube or something

[opal thunder]

Mint and Zorin are pretty much as user friendly as it gets when you switch over from any other OS

Just don’t expect all games to work

[harsh quartz]

Somehow your not a true windows user unless you use registry 3 times a day so you should just use Linux instead :p

[dreamy rose]

Ubuntu is shitty, just use LMDE.

[tired glade]

Mint having so many problems lately I would wait on it

[dreamy rose]

its Mint that just uses Debian instead.

[indigo plume]

Windows just works so I keep on using it

[dreamy rose]

no need for Snaps

[indigo plume]

Plus heard nivida drivers sucks on Linux

[dreamy rose]

you wait until they charge a subscription to use your OS

[indigo plume]

Doubtful

[dreamy rose]

Nvidia sucks ass in general nothing is linux specific

[harsh quartz]

There is no reason to use Linux as a gaming machine unless you just hate windows, it just makes everything harder for no reason

[indigo plume]

Nivida makes highest performance cards I wouldn't say they suck

[opal thunder]

Although I use windows 11 myself

For that reason

[slim yacht]

some poeple just dont want to open a console to do shit lol and that includes me. i use linux for network and servers but that doesnt mean i like it either. windows server is as convenient and actually have consumer like gui

[indigo plume]

And games just have less support on Linux

[dreamy rose]

they make you sign into an Account for DRIVER SOFTWARE. they fucking suck ass.

[indigo plume]

Like u wouldnt be able to play destiny

[indigo plume]

I couldn't care less

[dreamy rose]

*Anticheat

[slim yacht]

youre betting on something which have no plans at all to happen lulz

[dreamy rose]

Games Run. Anticheat is iffy

[harsh quartz]

I understand the point of Linux in a production environment, but windows has its place too, especially on a personal gamer. If I’m working on computers all day for my job, I just want my gamer to work without having to troubleshoot :p

[indigo plume]

Yeah and I play lots of games that have anti cheat

[dreamy rose]

its Absolutely something microsoft would do.

[indigo plume]

Valorant csgo destiny ect

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, it’s called buying windows

[dreamy rose]

monthly

[indigo plume]

I doubt windows would make that change

U just sounds like a windows hater

[slim yacht]

uh, i dont think you know that manufacturers already paid subscription for your licenses if you buy their product which comes with windows. if they charge you then whats the point of them charging you monthly as well? youre not bmw lmao

[harsh quartz]

No, this is just dumb and has no basis, your just saying that to hate on Microsoft.

[indigo plume]

Man making baseless claims

[slim yacht]

at this point bro just wants to buy anything with DOS and install linux, then claim microsoft will charge you a monthly license which you paid in full?

bro has no knowlegde of purchase agreement

[indigo plume]

Bill gates must have smacked his momma for all this ridiculous hate lmao

[graceful burrow]

This your guys first time talking with bss or somethin?

[slim yacht]

its not but still lmao. its getting worse

[harsh quartz]

Nah I agree with some of the windows hate, it’s not perfect and Microsoft fucks shit up a lot, but baseless claims are just dumb

[dreamy rose]

if bill gates was with my mother i wouldn't be suffering on 12 year old GPUs.

[harsh quartz]

I’m still pissed at Microsoft for what they did to Minecraft 😦

[indigo plume]

Huh

What's wrong with minecraft

[slim yacht]

ive said it before, seems like a you issue more than literally everyone else

[indigo plume]

It's still good

[opal thunder]

Lol

[harsh quartz]

The whole bedrock/Java split and the predatory monetization of bedrock

[dreamy rose]

they added Fucking blinking the fuck you mean whats wrong?

having Minecraft players BLINKING is fucking cursed dude.

[atomic vessel]

blinking 👀

[indigo plume]

Is this the average Linux user

[opal thunder]

They should have overhauled the code when they bought it to support multi threading

[harsh quartz]

Idk about all that but they shouldn’t have monetized it the way they did, I still prefer Java since it’s less predatory

[slim yacht]

no, hardwarebob is quite chad actually

[harsh quartz]

Then he’s above average (not sure I agree with this) but this is the average user

[dreamy rose]

you acting like you have the IQ of a Mac fanboy but cant afford a M2 Pro Max Ultra Mega GigaShart, so has a Windows PC but wishes they could customize Windows to look like MacOS.

[slim yacht]

sounds like describing yourself there buddy

[indigo plume]

I don't even know what ur trying to say

[dreamy rose]

At least i'm not afraid to use Linux.

[indigo plume]

But whatever I'm going to sleep

[harsh quartz]

I like how in a windows vs Linux debate this man brought up apple just to try and attack people with it :p

[indigo plume]

I'm not Afraid it's just has no benefit to me

[slim yacht]

neither do i, im a network engineer lol. but then again its not better than windows for 90% normal folks out there who just wants things to work out of box

[atomic vessel]

uh actually it's called the M2 Pro Max Super Duper Ultra Epic Magic ExaShart

[harsh quartz]

I used windows for my pc for the same reason I use an IPhone, it’s basic and it’s reliable, I just need it to work and it does

[indigo plume]

It's either learn a brand new os and not being able to play some of my go to games or just keep using windows and having no problems

[dreamy rose]

it will later on. Windows slows down like a motherfucker after a year. Linux slows down to the speed of a Fresh windows install after multiple years

[indigo plume]

Like what would I need Linux for

[harsh quartz]

This is just factually incorrect

https://tenor.com/view/memes-gif-21092465

[slim yacht]

i have like over 50 pcs down there in the other floor running hardware from 5 years ago, shit dont slow down for no reason lmao. what is this claim?

[dreamy rose]

you gonna try denying that Windows is heavier than Linux?

[slim yacht]

he didn say that either

[harsh quartz]

That’s not what I said at all, I said it doesnt slow itself down after a year

[dreamy rose]

Sure did.

[manic torrent]

I too like to make shit up and just vomit out words

[slim yacht]

bro is shoving words to people's mouth lmao

[harsh quartz]

And modern hardware is good enough that a “heavy” operating system isn’t even that heavy anymore

[wary summit]

I think I just killed my PSU

[harsh quartz]

Back when 4gb of ram and a 1ghz 2 core CPU was standard, sure, windows used a lot of resources, but that isn’t the case anymore

[manic torrent]

My windows install is from 2020, started on 10 and upgraded to 11. Been through three CPUs, two motherboards, three GPUs, still fine.

[dreamy rose]

Windows Will grind to a Halt. Linux doesn't. its only if you use all your RAM with no page file/Swap will it halt anything.

[wary summit]

or I tripped it's power surge protection

[atomic vessel]

centrist solution: use WSL on windows

[slim yacht]

electroboom it my friend, those capacitors needa blow

[dreamy rose]

Centrists would be using Windows in a VM on Linux.

[wary summit]

EVGA 450bv can handle rx6700xt and 5600x right

[manic torrent]

I use WSL for some stuff. It's handy but also shit for other things

[slim yacht]

both of those are like 300w total +- board consumption at least. so its a yes.

[atomic vessel]

eh i don't think whatever linux has for windows virtualization is better thsn WSL

[atomic vessel]

me too, for coding only
it's handy but not perfect in my experience

[dreamy rose]

Linux has far more bare metal benefiets than a WSL install would have.

[slim yacht]

how do you figure that would happen? halt how?

[atomic vessel]

and that's why it's a centrist solution

[manic torrent]

I use it for coding and for running useful shit like nmap and rsync and ssh etc because windows makes that shit more difficult

[slim yacht]

you can go ghetto and use putty for ssh lololololol

[manic torrent]

I run Linux on my server. I use BSD (free and open ) at work. I run WSL on my desktop when I need to, and often on my work laptop. Mehhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[dreamy rose]

Windows grinds to a halt doing anything and Linux grinds to a halt if you fuck up installing Swap/Page Files.

[manic torrent]

I do as well, also kitty. Also ssh on the command line. I like to mix it up

[barren kindle]

yo guys if hypothetically i wanted to get past my schools wifi restrictions

how would i go about that

[harsh quartz]

VPN

[dreamy rose]

VPN. next question

[barren kindle]

the wifi disconnects everytime i use a vpn, i used to use one

[harsh quartz]

Then good luck :p

[slim yacht]

how do you prove this claim?

[atomic vessel]

time to study

or just bring your own device

[harsh quartz]

He doesn’t

[barren kindle]

nahnhanha i did sum more research and apparently theres something called an ssh tunnel. but idk how to set one up

[barren kindle]

sd card?

[harsh quartz]

That’s a type of vpn, no?

[atomic vessel]

mobile hotspot's also a thing if you have a decent plan

[slim yacht]

you can always break through their network policy, not recommended

[barren kindle]

how do i do that?

[slim yacht]

its illegal dont do it

[harsh quartz]

very not recommended

[dreamy rose]

this is an SD Card

[barren kindle]

sim card mb

[atomic vessel]

you can, and always should break through school network policies

i am not responsible for any consequences you may face in the process

[barren kindle]

this is only hypothetical so its okay :D

[slim yacht]

[dreamy rose]

you can get laptops with a Sim slot. but its kinda rare

[slim yacht]

and always are very good emphasis there

[barren kindle]

how would i break through the wifi policy. Is there an article anywhere?

[dreamy rose]

as dumb as it is cause it can be hella useful

[harsh quartz]

Or just be a good student and don’t try to circumvent safeties on your network

[barren kindle]

hell no im a bad boy

[atomic vessel]

it's fun tho
(speaking from experience)

[barren kindle]

ong

ive been stuck playing basketbal stars on a unblocked games google site

[harsh quartz]

Not if you have a competent network admin (ours didn’t)

[slim yacht]

just get yourself a sim with unlimited data i guess, its better than breaking through a network policies per se. if they have a fast network admin youre gonna get rekt by being suspended lmao

[barren kindle]

our network admin is the english teacher

[atomic vessel]

we didn't have one either lol

[harsh quartz]

Public schools, right?

[atomic vessel]

fr fr

[barren kindle]

the guys in IT dont know what cas latency is

broo someone plss tell me how to do ittttt

[harsh quartz]

Tbf that doesn’t come up much in network administration

[atomic vessel]

to be fair i wouldn't expect IT people to know ram latency

[slim yacht]

for legal reasons i cant teach you that

[barren kindle]

is there an article anywhere?

[harsh quartz]

Also CAS latency isn’t really as important as it used to be, at least in the hobbiest space

[atomic vessel]

anyway easiest solution bring your own device
another one if you have a good phone plan, use your phone as a hotspot

[barren kindle]

i have my own device

but the wifi policies are on the actual network

[slim yacht]

isnt it just better to use your own device no?

[barren kindle]

wym by "own device"

[harsh quartz]

Phone

[barren kindle]

ohhh, i though u meant laptop

[atomic vessel]

if it's a school device you probably can't install stuff like VPNs or other apps
so

[barren kindle]

yea i have a phone but im not allowed to use it in class

[dreamy rose]

took a while to figure that one out huh

[harsh quartz]

Bruh you out here talkin shit about your IT guy but you don’t even understand this :p

[gleaming harbor]

i see many videos online how to reset a managed chromebook/laptop device
but for legal reasons i can't tell you

[slim yacht]

bro was in the 'it do be like that' phase lmao

[barren kindle]

im used to my teachers staying "Get Of yO DevICe"

meaning my laptop

im a minor so i cant get in trouble right

and im in an accelerated learning program so they wouldn suspect me

[slim yacht]

you can even reset a managed windows laptop easily

[harsh quartz]

“Accelerated learning” as if that means shit

[barren kindle]

it just means i sit in a diff class...

[slim yacht]

but eh it would be fun if you somehow figure out how to break that policy. for research purposes yknow

[harsh quartz]

It means you get a nice thick “special education” folder at graduation shortly followed by depression

[barren kindle]

thats what im sayinnnnnn someone help a 13 yr old out

[slim yacht]

ill be watching.

[manic torrent]

Honestly if you're a student and you don't try and at least do something, then there's probably something wrong with you.

[barren kindle]

can someone at least tell me how theyre blocking my wifi?

it disconnects everytime i connect a vpn

[manic torrent]

using the magic power of computers

[barren kindle]

is it like if my ip adress is out of school bounds it doesnt give me wifi or smthn like that. i dont know a lot about networking

[manic torrent]

Spoiler alert, it is probably
[X] don't allow VPNs

[slim yacht]

your router policies watches feeds coming in and out, and they know if youre using vpn lol. during the setup the wifi controllers probably were set to kill a connected host if a vpn is detected

[manic torrent]

People smarter than you built these systems, but people possibly dumber or at least with wayyyyy.less time implemented them.

[barren kindle]

dude im running for middle school captain to get my japanese teacher fired

im on a mission

im determined to do this

[manic torrent]

I may have had admin on my school network in the 90s

[slim yacht]

uh i would put that spirit somewhere else altho yeah goodluck i guess

[junior forge]

bruh kids keep messing with bios passwords in my college and i got to go fix them every god damn day

they don't want to set some passwords themselves

[barren kindle]

good idea actually

[harsh quartz]

Vpns worked for us cause our it guy was bad

[barren kindle]

i could infiltrate the IT department as a curious student

[silent elbow]

Lmao

[barren kindle]

and want a career in networking

and ask them how the wifi gets blocked

[manic torrent]

Lol so transparent

Kids are hilarious

[barren kindle]

juss tell me how to get past the restrictionsssssssssssssssssssssss

plsplsplsplspls im a little kid plsplspls

[harsh quartz]

Yeah that’s not a good thing, go back to studying

[manic torrent]

You have to work for it. Otherwise you won't appreciate it

[barren kindle]

ok so how do i set up a proxy

[harsh quartz]

You don’t

[barren kindle]

how do i not set one up

[manic torrent]

www.setup5proxies.com

[dreamy rose]

go do work experience with your IT guys then

[shut lichen]

you don't 😉

[barren kindle]

mr beluzzo (IT guy) had a stiffy in assembly... i cant be seen with him

[manic torrent]

Maybe you just weren't cut out for this. Perhaps you should give up

[full fossil]

yes

[barren kindle]

my bad sorryyy

[harsh quartz]

Ope now he’s got eyes

[shut lichen]

if they're not competent network admins, you'll easily be able to get around security

but you need to research it yourself

not ask randoms on the internet

[harsh quartz]

If a vpn doesn’t work then they’re probably more competent than a lot

[barren kindle]

i swear this server gives me more, and better life advice than my home group teacher

[gentle slate]

[vapid cypress]

Heres a life advice: give me all your money and you will be very happy

[gentle slate]

just get a vpn

if that dont work, stop going to school.

[barren kindle]

i take back what i said earlier

[shut lichen]

if that doesn't work, just pay attention in class like you should be*

[gentle slate]

class useless

ive peaced out 90% of what I was taught in hs

[vapid cypress]

Real

[barren kindle]

i just be trading forex in class anyways😭

[gentle slate]

tbh I also dropped out of uni

[vapid cypress]

Today we had to write 150+ Windows shortcuts

On a google doc

[harsh quartz]

Write? Like the file path?

[vapid cypress]

No

Like a shortcut

Ctrl + Shift + Esc

As an example

[gentle slate]

tf does that do

[harsh quartz]

Oh, hotkey shortcuts

[gentle slate]

I know the tabbing, widnow closing, window opening and shit

[vapid cypress]

Then we had to explain what it does

[vapid cypress]

It opens task manager

[harsh quartz]

There’s a shortcut for like every windows utility, it’s ridiculous how complicated they get

[gentle slate]

I just use ctrl alt delete for that

though that no longer opens task manager only and opens that useless menu

back in my day ctrl alt delete was the goto for task manager

[harsh quartz]

Everyone used to yell at me for not using the snipping tool “shortcut” and I just search for it every time cause the shortcut is harder to hit than just typing in snip

[vapid cypress]

I copy pasted 99% because it was so fucking useless and boring it was supposed to be program class

[gentle slate]

but snipping tool is windows + S

wait no it isnt

shit i forgot the snipping tool shortcut

[dreamy rose]

fuck the shortcut. its prerma pinned to my taskbar

[vapid cypress]

Windows key shift s I think

[harsh quartz]

Shift, window, S

[gentle slate]

oh shift

[harsh quartz]

This is EXACTLY why I just type it in every time cause I always fuckin forget

[gentle slate]

yk schools should begin teaching wasd instead of homerow

[harsh quartz]

Typing class isn’t really a thing anymore

[gentle slate]

huh

[harsh quartz]

Since so many people grow up on computers

[gentle slate]

is that why the zoomers can barely type their name out

[dreamy rose]

schools teach homerow?

[gentle slate]

brothers take 5 years to type out "john"

[graceful burrow]

Schools should be teaching airstrafe bhopping

[barren kindle]

i learnted to touch type my covering my keybaord wif a blncket and grinding monkeytype

[vapid cypress]

Real, I still don't know how to do it

Tho I know surfing

[dreamy rose]

Rocket Jumping is more essential

[gentle slate]

bhopping is easy

[graceful burrow]

So is typing john

[gentle slate]

though one thing I do is bind jump to mousewheel up and down

[slim yacht]

skillful shit to use in csgo2 #soon

[gentle slate]

ive been called a scripter by the masses

[harsh quartz]

[gentle slate]

I have too much time on that accursed game and I love it

[vapid cypress]

You aren't missing out on much really

[dreamy rose]

i booted it up for 4 minutes but i've been in Source more

[harsh quartz]

It never grabbed my attention, by the time I was on computer it was already deep in the gambling phase with all the website controversy

[slim yacht]

eh i loved half life more than anything. and then gmod came up and got me into cs since the servers are still very alive today

[harsh quartz]

Gmod I played the fuck out of

[slim yacht]

fun times with 1.6

[harsh quartz]

I was more of a Minecraft person tho

[vapid cypress]

I played prophunt like 2 weeks ago it was fun

[harsh quartz]

OG prop hunt or OBJ hunt?

[vapid cypress]

Is there a difference?

[gentle slate]

never got the hype behind gmod

[harsh quartz]

Yes, big difference

[vapid cypress]

It's a sandbox but source

[slim yacht]

its just fun open servers, nothing much to it except if youre into that. they do crazy shit in there

I'm just watching this video being like "You butt hurt?"

Basically he is saying these issues with conflicts of interest and poor validation of testing which LTT recently just got in trouble for have been there for years, and I'm like, "but dude nobody took LTT reviews seriously before, criticizing an LTT video for it's testing methodology 2 years ago would have been like criticizing Top Gear for not having great testing methodology, but with LABs LTT said to their audience we we want to be taken seriously so after a reasonable amount of time with the testing not improving obviously there was gonna be backlash."

My rooms window is distorted a bit and basically magnifying glasses my room for most of the day and I have a 5900x and 4080 so it is crazy hot during the summer

[opal thunder]

Oof

[shut lichen]

wtf

[opal thunder]

Pancake counts?

[harsh quartz]

Cool it with your pool water

[vapid cypress]

Ikr they said they will add them later its a newly renovated dorm they were still moving stuff in as I moved in 💀

[vapid cypress]

Yeah I guess

[shut lichen]

aka "we're never going to do it"
it takes minutes per window, it should've just been done right away

[vapid cypress]

"Newly renovated" but they can't add like nfc cards for identification instead we have to say our name and our room every time we leave or enter for the first time of the day

It's kinda annoying

• other nonsensical rules like having to be inside the dorms past 10pm

[shut lichen]

would sure be a shame if it burnt down

[opal thunder]

Nah

[vapid cypress]

There won't be any sun left after they install them lol

[opal thunder]

Would be free money for the school

[vapid cypress]

👀

[opal thunder]

They def have that insured

[shut lichen]

I shouldn't have to /s something that is obvious sarcasm

[vapid cypress]

Also yesterday at like 11pm there were people screaming out of their windows

👍

[shut lichen]

when has anyone said "would sure be a shame if <bad thing happened to bad people>" in a serious matter on the internet

[opal thunder]

Obviously but even sarcastically they still win since capitalism

[shut lichen]

[opal thunder]

Now I’m sad

[vapid cypress]

They thought they were being funny by breaking dorm rules which can get you kicked

[opal thunder]

Incredibly based

[vapid cypress]

Yeah people screaming out of the top of their lungs and acting like 21st century gopnicks

I love living next to those people 😊

[opal thunder]

Is the insulation good? Or are they just being assholes

Because if the noise isolates itself to just outside it is pretty based

[vapid cypress]

We had windows open because it was hot. They were being assholes for the sake of being assholes. In room insulation is pretty good

[opal thunder]

Time to purchase a train horn

And see how they like it

[vapid cypress]

It wast like a single person it was like a few even they managed to organize a simultaneous scream. Then the guard came threatening with a eviction even tho they had no clue who is screaming

There are like 40 windows outside how they gonna know

They did it infront of the guard too

[dreamy rose]

how the fuck do you get a Pentium Silver N5000 to 100 degrees?

[slim yacht]

credit score be wildin right now lmao

[eternal parcel]

theres a thing called setting it on fire

[pseudo mesa]

I remember being in the dorms

screaming every thursday and friday and saturday night

eff that

[jagged linden]

How do I stop my iPad and iPhone from automatically downloading apps from the other I have the setting turned off yet it still happens

[summer nova]

Wait it’s a legit link

That’s not a link

[river yoke]

yes? it aint no malware, im sorry i have broken you discord experience

[river yoke]

it is a link

[opal thunder]

What was it?

A rickroll?

Or malware?

[summer nova]

Discord gift but not a gift

my goal is to one day move to the Azores, where the temperature is perfect year-round

[vapid cypress]

I love session token grabbers

[harsh quartz]

Is that like an arcade machine

[bold brook]

there's even worse stuff that you can do now that google for some incomprehensible reason decided to release the TLDs for .mov and .zip as domains people can register

that is basically one step less chaotic than releasing say, .jpg as a domain extension

[tired glade]

That overlapping text

[vapid cypress]

Cutecat.jpg (not a virus)

[tired glade]

Trust me bro

[harsh quartz]

They released the .mov and .zip then peaced out of domain hosting and said “this is y’all’s problem now”

[vapid cypress]

You can make excuse that the photo didn't embed or something

[harsh quartz]

Couldn’t you also just embed a photo into a fake link? Like how the ltt forums link used to have a meme attached to it?

[bold brook]

https://medium.com/@bobbyrsec/the-dangers-of-googles-zip-tld-5e1e675e59a5

this article does a pretty good job of explaining why this is such a big problem

[harsh quartz]

Mhmm

[bold brook]

can you tell the difference between these two urls:

`https://github.com∕kubernetes∕kubernetes∕archive∕refs∕tags∕@v1271.zip

https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/archive/refs/tags/v1.27.1.zip`

most people would be phished by this, even computer/internet literate types

[vapid cypress]

The weird /

[bold brook]

it's the @ symbol, the first one is actually just hosted at a website called v1271.zip

[vapid cypress]

Oh

[prime solstice]

Apple might make me not switch to android

[bold brook]

basically in browsers now if you go to a link like https://[e-mail] it will take you to bing

haha it actually redid the link

was supposed be https://[e-mail]

[merry gull]

yes i can that [first link] takes you to v1271.zip

[vapid cypress]

Cool

[prime solstice]

All because of walking simulator by hideo kojima

[vapid cypress]

Death stranding?

I loved that game

[opal thunder]

[opal thunder]

It only took 6 hours but my brother is finally getting seen at hospital istg this city needs like 3 more hospitals than we have already right now

[harsh quartz]

This is death stranding gameplay

[bold brook]

yah, if you want an image of what hell is probably like, try going to an american ER at any point in time. miserable.

[opal thunder]

Actually true

[vapid cypress]

It was cooler than that

[harsh quartz]

https://tenor.com/view/bread-running-gif-10415035

[vapid cypress]

Yes

Death stranding is like going outside without going outside with some scifi

[harsh quartz]

https://tenor.com/view/potato-walk-spuds-swag-gif-12488746

[vapid cypress]

Weird

[harsh quartz]

Is bread

Possibly potate

[vapid cypress]

Thas a potey

[harsh quartz]

Potate is bread

[bold brook]

looks like mister peanut lost his hat

[harsh quartz]

That’s Sir Nut to you

[vapid cypress]

If one went extinct who would choose bread or potato?

In saving

[harsh quartz]

Yay, internets down again at the same time today, woopdiefuckingdo

[solar stratus]

Who’s your isp

[harsh quartz]

spectrum

[gleaming compass]

ever try to power a clock with bread as the battery?
I would choose the the potato to be saved

[harsh quartz]

You can make bread from potato’s but not potato’s from bread

[keen cedar]

Mid

Starlink is better

[gilded forge]

nice. I'm in rural fuck nowhere. I get a local isp because the corporate ones don't support my place

[harsh quartz]

Spectrum is bad but not that bad

[harsh quartz]

We’re the second to last house that they support in this direction, if we were 100 yards down the road we probably wouldn’t have spectrum

[keen cedar]

My downtime is 1m per 12hours, 20 ping, 200mbps down, 20up

👍

I love starlink, it’s much better than any other shit that reaches here

[pliant karma]

not bad never really had downtime on mines sometimes for a 5 min period but rarely

[keen cedar]

That is in like 1-5 second intervals too so it’s not bad at all

It’s not even in a super good spot lmao

[pliant karma]

lol

[keen cedar]

We are roof mounting it eventually

[gilded forge]

my isp doesn't support a mesh router system (for some fucking reason), so I have a 200 ft Ethernet cable leading to my room

[pliant karma]

fun part is AT&T is the only provider in my area.

[harsh quartz]

Can you not just install your own router to the modem?

[keen cedar]

Att cellular?

[pliant karma]

just home internet in general

[keen cedar]

Ah, att is the only cellular provider that reaches my house

[spice pine]

keep an eye out for T-Mobile 👀

[pliant karma]

I was offered a speed upgrade for free when they were doing maintaince sooo ima call them and ask lol

[harsh quartz]

I live in the country and yeah att is the only good cellular service out here, but in town it’s not as good

[keen cedar]

In town is where our tower is

[gilded forge]

well before this, we had satellite. so they basically dug a straight line through the forest and there's a cable from the front door ro the router

[keen cedar]

In a couple years we are probably gonna get fiber

[gilded forge]

I want fiber but literally all im capable of here is T-Mobile's 5g and the local isp.

[vapid cypress]

I never had an internet outage except for electricity outages in extreme cases bleh

[pliant karma]

I have my route on a battery backup so it runs for 7 hours the moment power is out lol.

[vapid cypress]

YouTube music

[tired glade]

Oh,LTT video fully ignored existing of Snapdragon 8 gen 2 about new iPhone

[harsh quartz]

Is it a modem or a router in the house?

[merry gull]

slowly working towards the 2 free certs my school is offering (currently working on CompTIA A+)

[tired glade]

What's YouTube music?

[warm dust]

Because mobile processors don't mean anything

[unkempt widget]

it's in the name

[harsh quartz]

A+?

[tired glade]

Oh,they don't

[merry gull]

yup

[vapid cypress]

It's YouTube but music 😨

[tired glade]

Wait,why it separate from normal YouTube

[vapid cypress]

Because they serve a different purpose

[warm dust]

Not really. Mobile processors don't really matter as long as they can render things at a decent rate

[tired glade]

Oh

[merry gull]

dedicated music app like spotify (even tho spotify is better)

[warm dust]

You never see anyone complaining they only get 200fps in genshin impact

[tired glade]

Isn't YouTube app already can do that?

[warm dust]

Spotify is still crap

[tired glade]

That game locked to 60

[vapid cypress]

Wrong ⚠️

[merry gull]

The UI is getting shittier each day but still okayish

[warm dust]

Exactly what I mean

[unkempt widget]

tbh the only reason people use spotify is because other people use it

[warm dust]

UI means nothing? YouTube music streams at 256kbits/s iirc while Spotify does something like 150

[vapid cypress]

You can't look up audio files of songs on youtube unless it's auto generated

[mild elm]

Do you notice that?

[warm dust]

Nope

[gilded forge]

well actually it isn't. it takes YouTube (sometimes content ID doesnt work so it plays a video with the song in the background) and just plays the audio. it takes your YT playlists and finds music videos, then puts them in YTM as music playlists.

[mild elm]

See

So who cares

[warm dust]

I also have really bad tinnitus so I don't notice much of anything

[merry gull]

I seriously could care less about the bitrate, you literally cannot notice it

[mild elm]

Spotify has wrapped which is fun with friends

[unkempt widget]

yall wanna guess how many hours i spent listening to music last week

[gilded forge]

audiophiles do, everyone else doesn't. I'm not an audiophile but I can tell the difference between a 256kb mp3 and a flac.

[full fossil]

28.87

[tired glade]

More than 1 hour

[unkempt widget]

more

[warm dust]

Let's see if I watch more YouTube in a week vs you listening to music in a week

[full fossil]

87.28

[unkempt widget]

less

[full fossil]

48.58

[merry gull]

240.6

[unkempt widget]

more

[full fossil]

55.00

[unkempt widget]

motr

[merry gull]

75

[full fossil]

62.5

[vapid cypress]

I can't believe they can't add a simple feature as removing a song while you are listening from your Playlist? Why I have to scroll in my 1000+ song Playlist?

[unkempt widget]

more

[tired glade]

And week is 168 hours

[full fossil]

81

[merry gull]

90

[unkempt widget]

les

[full fossil]

80

[warm dust]

@unkempt widget

[unkempt widget]

less

[full fossil]

79

[tired glade]

Oh,my

[unkempt widget]

you got it

[full fossil]

First try, yes

[unkempt widget]

my highest week was 105 hours btw

[full fossil]

the rest were just jokes

guess how many hours of music ive listened to this week

[tired glade]

That's a lot of music

[vapid cypress]

Honestly I get quickly sick of music only in certain moods I'm listen to music

[full fossil]

im at 0 hours

but ive listened to probably 30 hours of old Howard Stern shows

[mild elm]

Is youtube music good?

Cuz included in premium is a good deal

[tired glade]

You already have it,so it doesn't matter

[unkempt widget]

one of my classmates got like 6000 hours in 2022

[vapid cypress]

I thought I was addicted to YouTube

[tired glade]

Wait, premium comes with limitations?

[vapid cypress]

No?

[tired glade]

Or it's just counting how much you skipped?

[vapid cypress]

It's just stats

[mild elm]

In Jordan there was no yt premium

[warm dust]

I will watch one or two videos after work but most of that time is watched in the background while I'm working. I work 11-12hrs/day so it adds up quick

[mild elm]

So you got the benefits for free

[tired glade]

Wait, is that for week or month?

[warm dust]

It's just stats for people who are interested

[mild elm]

What do you do

[unkempt widget]

guess how many different songs i've listened to last week

[spice pine]

four :3

[tired glade]

From a lot to many

[mild elm]

Five :4

[vapid cypress]

Makes sense

[unkempt widget]

Six :5

[solar stratus]

It tracks YouTube time? I’m jealous

[warm dust]

Labour. I have earmuffs on at all times for hearing protection so I can stick an earbud in an ear as well

Six :5

[vapid cypress]

Yes so you would feel bad

I've been hoarding a specific style of music for the past 10 months

I still don't know what type of music it is

[full fossil]

link a song and ill tell you

[vapid cypress]

So much to choose from

[full fossil]

just choose one

[vapid cypress]

Lemme go into my liked songs

[full fossil]

ok ill allow it

[vapid cypress]

Can I name 3

[full fossil]

no i just need 1

[vapid cypress]

:/

[full fossil]

just give me your last liked one

[vapid cypress]

No

Vanished by Crystal Castles

There

[full fossil]

Experimental chiptune

could also say synthpop

[vapid cypress]

OK what about Show Me How by Men I Trust

[full fossil]

also , nice song

I love men I trust, I would just call them dream indie

or "dream pop"

[vapid cypress]

That describes what I've been chasing

I go for chill songs

Maybe even sad ones

[full fossil]

same, unless im driving

[vapid cypress]

Lol

[full fossil]

you like phoebe bridgers?

[vapid cypress]

No

Not my cup of tea

I just looked up the first top song

[full fossil]

what about postal service?

that was the first band I can remember that had a sound like the ones you mentioned

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUIBnmdJJ50

and still the best imo

[vapid cypress]

They seem similar to style but it feels too boy band-ish for me

[harsh quartz]

https://tenor.com/view/toast-bread-fish-bread-gif-10415028

time stamped, at least check this song

[vapid cypress]

Ok

[full fossil]

one of my favorite songs of all time

its a song about watching someone die

and it gets deep

[vapid cypress]

Yeah, still not my kind of song

[full fossil]

poo

[vapid cypress]

I like the piano

[spice pine]

bedroom pop / snythpop is what you're looking for, based on Show Me How by Men I Trust and Vanished by Crystal Castles

[opal thunder]

I like 🍞

[graceful mortar]

future is wireless? The trick is to align the car with the charging pad and that’s where Volvo's 360-degree camera system will come in handy. The XC40 Recharge vehicles will draw more than 40 kilowatts of wireless charging power, which is around four times faster than a wired 11 kW AC charger and almost as fast as a wired 50 kW DC fast charger.

[opal thunder]

I’m hungry

[spice pine]

men i trust seems to be very bedroom pop, whereas crystal castles seems to be more experimental synthpop

[full fossil]

@vapid cypress https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5YOhcAof8I&list=RDQMFGqsokTg93c&start_radio=1

lot of good bands in this playlist that are all dreampop

[vapid cypress]

I got more examples https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=1Hoi9eVWLW0&si=jw3h7PgBEaKRedY3

[spice pine]

you might enjoy some of the very early Owl City albums, they were a lot more synth-based and lots of metaphorical / fantastical lyrics

[vapid cypress]

https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=4u7kNELI76A&si=_vYMekDq5ZNgBJnP

[graceful mortar]

you would not believe your.... ears? 😅

[spice pine]

smh my head

based on the last two suggestions, experimental lofi pop in general is probably what you're looking for

[graceful mortar]

do... do they light up your world as you fell asleep?

do you get a thousand hugs?

[vapid cypress]

From what I can tell half of them half of them are already in my Playlist lol

[spice pine]

I was referring to the whole pre-Ocean Eyes era

but sure, meme song funny

[full fossil]

Nice ya we have similar taste in music for sure

[graceful mortar]

meme song was good tho lol

MUCH better than #selfie

tho "shoes" is still the GOAT

[spice pine]

im so glad i have no clue what you're referring to

[modern ingot]

[spice pine]

i'm going to put on my hipster glasses and state for the record, i listened to owl city before fireflies blew up 🤓

@vapid cypress I am curious if youd like one of my favorite bands of all time nobody knows about, 5k subscribers:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olgaAUJzAu4

they literally dont have a bad song

[vapid cypress]

Yeah something like that

[graceful mortar]

OMFG 17 YEARS?? oh my....

[spice pine]

what the literal hell is this

[graceful mortar]

this was the other one... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdemFfbS5H0

[spice pine]

based on whatever the shit the other one was, im not clicking that

[vapid cypress]

It's a nice song

[graceful mortar]

i remember when this was teh talk of ALL the collab channels. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfVsfOSbJY0

[vapid cypress]

Reminds me of one song

[graceful mortar]

or Harlem shake

[vapid cypress]

Stop being so ollld

[spice pine]

is this what having internet brain rot is like

[graceful mortar]

#selfie performance

[spice pine]

because like i remember friday and fireflies, and they were really big hits and all, but 😐

[graceful mortar]

i know... its soo gross lol

[spice pine]

at least Rebecca Black turned out to be a good musician with terrible producers lmfao

[graceful mortar]

the fact that friday was a birthday present.

do you guys remember What the Buck?

[spice pine]

not in the slightest

[graceful mortar]

sad... he was a YouTube news personality funny AF

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aP-DKHI3TA

[spice pine]

im so glad i never gave two shits about any of this

[harsh quartz]

celebrity news is such a brain cell killer

[vapid cypress]

Just like following drama

[full fossil]

true

[vapid cypress]

Or YouTube drama

Which I'm the victim of

I love internet slop drama

Things that we gonna forget in a week

[full fossil]

i get the appeal but its not for me

[spice pine]

i've got enough drama in my quiet life, i dont need to get my fix from random people i'll never meet

[graceful mortar]

he broke a ton of YouTube records. top 10 most-subscribed-to YouTube channels for 2 years

Though this would have been Chris Croker "leave Britney alone" days.
and BlogTv

[graceful mortar]

back then you could just meet them at vidcon. channels were small enough they woudl actually know who you were. if you wanted that.

[spice pine]

i am just. not that kind of gal

[vapid cypress]

Since YouTube is my 90% of the entertainment for me since I don't own Netflix or Cable. It is kind of inevitable to follow drama at times.

:p

Especially when you are subbed to 4 channels that cover the same topic

[graceful mortar]

im aging my self.... CharlieIsSoCoolLike being # 1 subbed with 30K subs, SteandKel being featured on Youtube front page
"HQ" on YouTube launch (480p), then 720P changed Youtube forever
Hell PRE Google. Pre YouTube Partner program, pre ads.

[vapid cypress]

I had to unsub because it was getting repetitive

[spice pine]

I was on a totally different side of youtube

[graceful mortar]

Tyler Oakley... when he was a Freshman at MSU

[vapid cypress]

I keep seeing you here posting old Wan shows and stuff live in the present dude

[spice pine]

i think the only YouTube channel i even knew the name of was TeamFourStar until like, 2015 or so. I just didn't care

[vapid cypress]

I started watching YouTube since gangnam style

[graceful mortar]

Im still friends with Fairly successful YouTubers of the era. one works for Meta now. one is like a millionare? doing Dev work i believe. was the project Lead for Disney +

[vapid cypress]

It was the first blow up of youtube

[graceful mortar]

and here i am...... with all yall lol

[spice pine]

ehh, Gangnam Style was hardly the first youtube blow up

was a really big one though

[graceful mortar]

no... no it wasn't 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[vapid cypress]

What are you doing here not being a millionaire wtf

[vapid cypress]

Yes

[spice pine]

I've got a few friends who, while not millionaires, are doing very well for themselves... You just don't talk to them about money, lmao

[graceful mortar]

Zactly. i waited too long to go to school.

[spice pine]

actually, one might be a millionaire now, idk

[graceful mortar]

the twitter posts show the $$ even though he rarely talks about it

[vapid cypress]

The richest person I know is my God mother who owns a bar which is pretty successful

5 year anniversary coming up

[graceful mortar]

also proof that just because people around you turned successful doesn't mean you will to.

[vapid cypress]

Of their business

[vapid cypress]

Yes

As almost as if people are unique

And not everyone chases money

[spice pine]

i've got a couple of old friends that started making serious bank with music in the indie pop scene

[graceful mortar]

money isnt teh only way to measure success. but its how peopel tend to.

[vapid cypress]

Not really

[spice pine]

one of them got a song in Fortnite and pulled a "my main goal is to blow up, and then act like i don't know nobody"

[graceful mortar]

i wasnt saying it should have, or that iut was supposed to lol. i was just pointed it out.

[vapid cypress]

The true success is being fulfilled with yourself. You can be rich all you want but money means nothing to the universe. It's about enjoying life that is the true success. You can be working a normal ass job and call yourself successful

[graceful mortar]

that's the WHOLE reason Apple still exists. Uber too. its a "flex".
same with the $85K pickup trucks. when median income in US supports a max of a $23K car comfortably.

[vapid cypress]

Money isn't everything

[graceful mortar]

people as in others view. only you know if you are truely happy.

[vapid cypress]

If you flex money that's just a red flag

[graceful mortar]

yet its what is advertised as it sell the "lifestyle"

[vapid cypress]

By social media

[graceful mortar]

every brand

[vapid cypress]

Everybody want to be a rich influencer

[graceful mortar]

this was going on way before individual brand deals existed for online personalities.

[vapid cypress]

YouTube became Hollywood to the average joe

Made it more accessible to be at the top

[harsh quartz]

Definitely not everybody

[graceful mortar]

1st just a popularity contest. now there is money MONEY. back in the day most YT-ers had full time jobs. now they build corporations.

[vapid cypress]

Weither its social media or having a high status job its still the same thing, an ego boost. People like to use their status against their leverage. Everyone is chasing that high

[harsh quartz]

I mean, no, but okay

[spice pine]

i just want to live comfortably in my tiny little town and not worry about medical bills

fame would drive me to insanity lmfao

[graceful mortar]

CIV 6 if really how teh world works tho. domoniate or be dominated.
UAW is finding that out. their 2007 agreement means that today they have taken a 30% pay cut.

[vapid cypress]

Yeah like Mr beast

[graceful mortar]

meanwhile teh companies they work for are churning record breaking profits

[vapid cypress]

Cometetivness is in our DNA that's why Olympics still exist

It is what pushes us forward as humanity

[graceful mortar]

i mean... but he is what i would classify as chaotic good. causing market disruption.
but at the same time its GOTTA suck knowing people who you think are your friends may only like you because of your money, not because who you are.

[vapid cypress]

The drive to be better or be better than someone

[graceful mortar]

when Glee was the final bang from network TV

i miss that time

[vapid cypress]

He is a genuinely a good person, but he also throws ideas at people and some people might use those for the not so good reasons. Like farming subs or something

Bad faith actors

The approach would be improving yourself. Being the best version of yourself. Do what you want to do. Understanding yourself and leaving the world a better place

Basic stuff

[tranquil nimbus]

There's still plenty of 50 year olds who watch NCIS and Law and Order SVU 😛

[vapid cypress]

But others get blinded by greed

[graceful mortar]

orrr i could just be rich and pay my problems to go away. then get rich rich and change the world. 🤔 🤔

[vapid cypress]

Yeah or that.

[graceful mortar]

SUV is so good tho. Ice-T 🤘

[tranquil nimbus]

I loved his chemistry with Richard Belzer, rip.

[merry gull]

i just did a whole 25% of my CompTIA A+ in 2 days, now on Lesson 6. I'm now at 488/12 points today, I'm gonna wait until the rest of my class catches up lel (gonna improve scores)

[tranquil nimbus]

But yeah, the people who remember NCIS was a spinoff from JAG are still watching NCIS.

[vapid cypress]

I have no idea what that means, but good for you

[merry gull]

it's a certification for entry level IT

[wise tundra]

Huh, I wonder why on a laptop when I copy files from Downloads to Documents, the speed is 80MB/s. It's a SATA M.2 drive so shouldn't the speed be closer to 750MB/s?

[vapid cypress]

Oke

[merry gull]

if it's a bunch of small files it will tank

[wise tundra]

Nah it was a single 6GB file

[graceful mortar]

i remember when this episode premiered May 19, 2005
https://youtu.be/_8Pfbb01a5A

i never did watch NCIS.

[graceful mortar]

i did liek CSI miami

[vapid cypress]

You sure you aren't updating windows or anything like that?

Or stuff in the background

[tranquil nimbus]

Unless those are on two physical drives, the speed should be instant... Afaik, it's just shuffling stuff around in the filesystem, no?

[graceful mortar]

ya that was sad.

[wise tundra]

I have this specific computer for downloading large files and DVD burning, so I'm sure there isn't anything extra running cause the only program I have installed are Firefox, Transmission and imgburn. Firefox has a blank tab open, nothing else open and I've disabled Windows Update

[wise tundra]

It's a single SSD

[graceful mortar]

from teh ssd back onto it self?

[tranquil nimbus]

And are you copying or moving?

[balmy anchor]

idk why but xbox controller looks so cute when in photos near the consoles. im a ps guy myself

[wise tundra]

Copying a backup of the file, so I don't mess it up

I'm extremely confused

[graceful mortar]

xbox likes windows.

[wise tundra]

I mean it didn't take too long to copy it so I don't really care, just really confused

[tranquil nimbus]

Oh, ok. So I'm mistaken, it wouldn't be instant.

[graceful mortar]

L&O Orignized crime is awesome. a bit slow flowing but i loved it.

[tranquil nimbus]

Haven't watched that one. But it's good they can continue to improve and come up with new stuff. I liked Criminal Intent at the time too.

[vapid cypress]

I like JCS too bad they don't upload often

[graceful mortar]

CI was crazy

i didnt like vanilla L&O tho.

ALex Woods was a vibe on CSI: Miami tho

eww... i need to get off wiki.
Justin bieber's viral video (which circulated like crazy in my online friend group) was 16 years ago. 🤦‍♀️

i remember what that movie came out too RIP

i hate this reviewer. but this made me LOL. YES cars lose value. DUH.

[pliant karma]

lol for a second i thought it was doug

[graceful mortar]

Group is mad teh price went down. not mad its cheaper... made their cars are worth less than they expected.....
thought because it was overpriced it was gonna be exclusive collector cars because no one could afford them...

[graceful mortar]

ive been following doug since before the video's when he was still doing written reviews. .... "THIS..."

[pliant karma]

nice

[graceful mortar]

mad that a 1000+ hp car has "excessive camber" from teh factory... Tesla owners man.

mad that tires are lasting 5,000 miles. these owners are delusional.
Fiesta ST you are doing REAL good if you hit 10K on OEM rubber.
Never heard of NOT buying directional tires and having them reversed at teh rotation.
Buys a LITERAL super car for dirt cheap.... gets mad its expensive to matain.

[grand spire]

Do anyone know when the iPhone became way expensive in Europe, comparated with USA or UK? In 2017 it was the same price but in euros, instead of dolars ($999 - € 999).
Now it costs near € 300 more, depending on the model.

iPhone 15 Pro prices:
USA - $ 999
UK - £ 999
EU - € 1249

[graceful mortar]

would be REAL mad how easy they are to crash without that camber.

[tranquil nimbus]

I actually loved the original's first few seasons. With Jerry Orbach and Sam Waterstone.

They were really good.

[crisp sedge]

omg, why is my msfs installation so slow

its taking an entire day

still 600 megs to go

[errant solar]

h

[crisp sedge]

its downloading at 1 mega BITS ps

thats 1 Mb

thats like

[mint abyss]

How much does a used ipad 9th gen 64gb go for?

[crisp sedge]

0.25 MB ps

whew

[spice pine]

wouldn't it be .125 Mbps?

because there's 8 bits in a byte

[crisp sedge]

yes

you are right, also i didnt sleep last night

anywho

its decompressing this ;arge file

the downloads was about 30 gigs

this one file

[graceful mortar]

this feels like a fire risk 🤣

[crisp sedge]

apparently not

or else it would have been all over the news

and from what ive read / watched, the current is shared among multiple cells

so like, that 4300 battery would have two cells, they will charge simultaneously

so each would charge at around 100W

[graceful mortar]

ahh that makes sense

[gilded forge]

imagine if it were the note 7

[graceful mortar]

wattt??

[crisp sedge]

what

im more surprised that you are surprised

[gilded forge]

square watch or decent phone from any other company

[graceful mortar]

[crisp sedge]

its apple

they sold wheels for 500 bux

[tepid jasper]

[crisp sedge]

[tepid jasper]

jfc

[crisp sedge]

[crisp sedge]

[polar fern]

with folding at home running every thread at 98-100% processor temps are like 68 degree c

i think i set up the fans correctly

[red zealot]

Can someone help me pls my laptop is Lenovo legion 5 right now it is stuck at 0.78 ghz or the cpu is throttling

[polar fern]

place it on a hard, flat surace and clean the dust out

also change the fan to performance from quiet

[marsh carbon]

Check temps

Replace thermal paste

[polar fern]

in a laptop?

no.

[crisp sedge]

Open your task manager and check the freq

[marsh carbon]

I reapplied my thermal paste and dropped 20c on my laptop

[sinful jay]

crazy

[marsh carbon]

Liquid metal dries out after a few years

[polar fern]

re-pasting laptop stuff is not some everyone-can-do-it thing

[marsh carbon]

Fair point

[polar fern]

can cause more harm that good

than

[marsh carbon]

Its more a last resort

[polar fern]

plus like taking apart a laptop is like the worst kind of tetris if youre not familiar with how to do it

[last solstice]

but he just did open his laptop

and he managed to pull it off

[polar fern]

so after about 30 minutes folding @ home processor has not gone above 70 degree woop

old computer would be like in the high 80's at 80% usage

[lilac bear]
