just a random morning on discord i guess

[crisp sedge]

No I meant

[crisp sedge]

The character I was tryna say

[slim yacht]

what ap are they using?

oh.....

well considering hospital its most likely a ruckus but like ruckus dont do this weird 'i have no internet' problem. at least from my prior projects.

must be their configuration that is funky

um does it use radius?

or its just an open wifi

uh, does it need to you authenticate in a browser after connecting?

yeah...... im pretty sure its just nasty config. like not setting proper vlans among all things. or even worse shared single network

you actually should a whole wifi for just employees with radius server lol and then have open public wifi with different subnets entirely.

eh hospital stuff

usually they just want a wifi so that you can connect to it. and then its usually uh, 'project completed'

well since your team was able to fix it somehow, must be either a recurring/an actual infra problem, say a terrible L2 Switch lol

it do be like that

[bleak storm]

Same

[slim yacht]

i only know what i know because i took network engineering in school. real world wise i dont really use them, only in the office lol

[crisp sedge]

I love networking

Except, working with dns

“It’s always the dns”

websites from the 90s/2000s look and are superior to modern ultra-modern webpages

[manic torrent]

you know, same old stuff. Looking at this webp exploit that has broken the entire internet. Basically every program ever made is vulnerable

[manic torrent]

move to japan

[pure olive]

makes sense

[lilac bear]

time to stop using internet browsers

and uninstall my PC

and anything that can show pictures, basically

time for links and pine

My dad bought a new knife sharpener so time to go look for my knife cause I’m bored

I've proven to myself time and time again that discord is bad for my mental health yet I still use it

Japan contains a population density considered unenjoyable by my standard living requirements as stated by guideline B(a).2819.p94.sB214.CeV1024a.PhV212

[manic torrent]

look, mental health is made to be destroyed

[pure olive]

I get a weird feeling that you can play piano tiles really well with your toes

[manic torrent]

japan is quite a large place with highly variable density. My point is more - Japanese websites didn't change from the 90s, because they never had smart phones in the same way that most of the world did.

[wispy marsh]

Webp exploit?

[manic torrent]

yep. totally pwnt.

Some of y’all didn’t live through the dark ages of dial up and DSL and it shows

gigabit stops you caring entirely. 100GB game download? yeah don't care.

[gaunt flower]

depends on your country

[pure olive]

sifwia = super into fucking with ian's assistant

[lilac bear]

just way too much of a cost for a single company to push gigabit without any help

[gaunt flower]

people trying to install fiber across the country will come across the greatest threat to the internet since its innovation:
Farmers cutting fiber cables once or twice every month

[lilac bear]

unless it's an existing ISP not stockpiling it's pockets

[gaunt flower]

Which is a real and existant problem

[olive stump]

Most web services won’t serve content to you gigabit anyway

[gentle slate]

I'm in the capital sooo. Idc about the farmers

[gaunt flower]

:

[gentle slate]

As long as the internet finds its way to me

[gaunt flower]

it is also possible your equipment -i.e, your router - may be faulty or otherwise not rated for higher speeds

especially so if provided by the ISP

[lilac bear]

ISP provided is literally bottom of the barrel routers

[gentle slate]

Id change the router but I can't figure out wtf the connectors are coz they sure ain't on my new router

[olive stump]

Funnily enough that’s part the reason why a decent amount of rural fibre is run over powerlines

[lilac bear]

or modems

[olive stump]

Got cable?

(Coax)

[lilac bear]

sounds like cable

[gentle slate]

Like I have fiber leading into the house, then the isp put in some converter to copper.

[wispy marsh]

I don't even know what this is supposed to mean

[gaunt flower]

lol

[olive stump]

That’d be the NTU

[gentle slate]

Then multiple ether net cables go to the tvs and pc

[pure olive]

thats the funny part

[wispy marsh]

Sigh

[lilac bear]

that almost defeats the reason to have fiber

[gaunt flower]

Yeah. its actually a real problem in the midwest lol

[olive stump]

Wat

[lilac bear]

idk

[gaunt flower]

like, it happens very often

[opal thunder]

you might have coaxial cables and may require a moca box to use your new modem

[manic torrent]

..... I see you don't understand shit about fuck

[gentle slate]

Is it actually possible to directly hook my pc with fiber?

[gaunt flower]

Yes, and no

[olive stump]

No

[manic torrent]

it is, but it's stupid

[wispy marsh]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/985773254792847470/1142454440322924634/image.png

[olive stump]

Well yes, but actually no

[gentle slate]

[olive stump]

It won’t help

[gentle slate]

But it'd feel premium.

[gaunt flower]

i had to personally contact my former ISP to tell them farmers cut their cable

(again)

[opal thunder]

why? its not a good idea

[wispy marsh]

It'd be good since he doesn't have to worry about the optical cables overheating because ethernet cable is copper /s

[olive stump]

Get a PPPoE router, hook it into that fibre box and then plug everything into the router

[opal thunder]

no real benefit

unless you have non consumer speeds and a motherboard that supports those speeds its pointless.

[gaunt flower]

alas i'm yet to mention the requirement of me needing a modem, and a router

[pure olive]

MODEM FFS

[olive stump]

Usually they’re cheaper there if you don’t mind a bit of dust

[gentle slate]

Oooo I never thought about robbing companies.

[opal thunder]

just get Cat7 ethernet cables

[olive stump]

If there’s a fibre NTU you don’t need a modem, the NTU is the “modem”

[manic torrent]

I am absolutely sure.

[gaunt flower]

in addition to a (W)AP

[gaunt flower]

nah man it's coax lol

[manic torrent]

cat7 isn't ethernet, it's a cable standard

[olive stump]

But also, fibre networks don’t need modems because they’re not negotiating over PTSN

[olive stump]

Oh lmao, fuck coax

[gentle slate]

My brain is being fried by networking lingo

[gaunt flower]

tell that to spectrum

[olive stump]

All my homies hate coax

[olive stump]

Sorry

[gentle slate]

I'm on mobile and can't keep up with the googols

[manic torrent]

this isn't even complicated

[gaunt flower]

if you want to look at what they are going to make me use take a look at spectrum's approved modem list

that's what i have to pick from

[opal thunder]

yes but im mentioning which one to get if they wanted fast speeds since past 6a you dont really get any benefit.

[gaunt flower]

i would use something else but i CBA to put effort into it

[lilac bear]

sobs loudly yes it is! explodes

[olive stump]

Used to work for AT&T, I know the sorta bullshit y’all gotta deal with

Coax DOCSIS was a cable company spec with all sorts of DRM-y bullshit baked in

[opal thunder]

most places in the world already dont have anything above 10gb speeds for consumer

[olive stump]

So they can lock down what modems you can and can’t use

[manic torrent]

... it depends entirely on your environment, devices, speed, length of run, sunspots, etc.

[olive stump]

If you have to use a cable company’s modem, then PPPoE one of the LAN ports to a router of your choice and disable shit like wifi and the like on it

[manic torrent]

for MOST people MOST of the time, any random twisted pair cable you can get off the shelf at any shop with 8p8c connectors will be fine for whatever you're doing.

[lilac bear]

sunspots

[gaunt flower]

yeah they let me use both a model and a router assuming

i was looking @ this https://www.bestbuy.com/site/arris-surfboard-sb8200-32-x-8-docsis-3-1-gig-speed-cable-modem-white/5839003.p?skuId=5839003

[gentle slate]

I should take a networking course.

[manic torrent]

yep. solar radiation.

[olive stump]

Most of them should allow PPPoE on a LAN

Push come shove you can just use it as a switch port to your router

[lilac bear]

the sun is a deadly laser

[gentle slate]

The sun is a planet

[olive stump]

tunnelling it with PPPoE is ideal but switchporting it isn’t bad

[opal thunder]

im not completely clueless about networking and still feel like i should lmao.

[gaunt flower]

yeah i also have various switches sitting around too, incase i ever have a use

[shell wyvern]

W or L. Peep the screen has the same design as mouse pad

[manic torrent]

Or similar 🙂

[olive stump]

[gentle slate]

Ofc itd be, with your blinding radiance

[opal thunder]

like university for it or something (but ig that wont happen unless im rich af.)

[gaunt flower]

and still looking @ a router, specifically one that will easily let me add extra networks, i.e guestnetwork or randomIoTthingsnet

[olive stump]

My home network is…complicated

[gaunt flower]

i say easily because honestly i CBA to put the effort into anything thats beyond visiting xxx.xxx.xxx and adding it

(no. apps.)

(please.)

ahem netgear ahem

[wispy marsh]

Hmm

Dell Optiplex with two or more pcie NIC cards

Add AP and voila

[gaunt flower]

you see, that's effort

[wispy marsh]

Ah

Ask LTT Jake

He'a super into this sort of stuff

[pure olive]

@vapid smelt

[gaunt flower]

i'm honestly no stranger to jank so if i have to end up using various switches and running ethernet cables strung up by command strips i will do that

[pure olive]

im so tired and its only 22:00

why am i so so tired

[gaunt flower]

unfortuantely management would get mad at me for drilling holes into things to run ethernet cables

though they do have a large access panel in the closet that i spied some coax in, i wonder if i could get access to the rest of the ethernet jacks in the walls in there 🤔

considering they don't work, lol

[olive stump]

-/r/homelab dropping their rackmount Ubiquity setups-

Gonna add this to the cupboard pile!

[pure olive]

i wish my 7900xtx had vga or dvi out

[gaunt flower]

[gentle slate]

Yall know any solid networking courses? Or should I just glean knowledge from random tubemen

[opal thunder]

DVI cables are such an inside joke in my house its not even funny

[vapid smelt]

#networking

[gentle slate]

But that says no basic questions

[slim yacht]

eh since you see some cables, they might actually be there since current standards allows you to have them together anyways at least

[opal thunder]

pretty sure some universities just post courses online

[pure olive]

I know you can see me cooper

[opal thunder]

obv you wont get degree but thats what you pay for ig

[gentle slate]

They do? Then why tf pay for them

[opal thunder]

the degree

[gentle slate]

Might as well print one out myself.

[gaunt flower]

there sometimes more to it than the videos they post

[opal thunder]

yeah

[slim yacht]

ccna/comptia/hcia/siemens. theyre all pretty good start.

[gaunt flower]

i learned half of what i know from just chatting to my instructors

[opal thunder]

its helpful when you actually have like minded people to ask questions to onsite

[gentle slate]

Huh. Siemens. Why's that sound familiar.

[hidden hill]

[gaunt flower]

they're everywhere

[slim yacht]

they make trains lol. they also do enterprise scale networking

[gentle slate]

I mightve had a washing machine from them.

[olive stump]

Check out the Cisco CCNA

[opal thunder]

lmao

[slim yacht]

tubeman also works anyway, if youre not looking into using that knowledge for work

[olive stump]

(I don’t remember if there’s a more basic Cisco course)
But the CCNA is good!

Takes about 8 weeks, covers basically everything networking 🙂

[slim yacht]

comptia offers basic networking as well, same as ccna using their own equipment of course

[gaunt flower]

seriously though any recccomendations for a router that i could easily setup more than one network on?

[slim yacht]

both cost as much, id go ccna first cause command lines on other cli's are not much different than cisco's

[wispy marsh]

Not for consumer

[vapid smelt]

https://tenor.com/view/im-legally-blind-gif-23467109

[wispy marsh]

IIRC no per-subnet controls and no vlan segments

[pure olive]

how you doing buddy :)

[wispy marsh]

Unless you disable upnp and add routes to every machine

[vapid smelt]

good hbu

[slim yacht]

ubiquiti is probably the easiest to setup then

[gaunt flower]

now you see that's the effort i CBA to do

when i get a permament address i will, but for now. yeah no

[pure olive]

I'm great, just really tired. Exhausting week lol, now I'm watching the funny brain rot videos on youtube

[vapid smelt]

Joe Momma Gottem

[pure olive]

I don't think you could get further from my name if you tried

[wispy marsh]

You want a router that already has vlans and subnets set up for you?

That's the firewall's job

[vapid smelt]

sue

[gaunt flower]

Arg, effort

[slim yacht]

uh consumer routers typically dont offer vlan's/network customization. not to my knowledge at least. theyre typically for one network + iptv/voIP.

[wispy marsh]

Routers have a guest network function but that's all about it

[pure olive]

eh one of the letters from my name is in this one

(im talking first name)

[manic torrent]

ehhhh, there's a huge blur from "basic shit" to "full enterprise zomg"

[vapid smelt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Z1Ple-qYuU

[gentle slate]

Wait is ccna qualification from cisco enough to land you a networking job?

[olive stump]

Why are you talking about VLANs for someone’s home internet?

[wispy marsh]

Rather than us, why not get OpenAI's shiny toy to make you something?

[olive stump]

Can be

[pure olive]

my name is actually cash cash

[wispy marsh]

I don't have it, but I'm also in non-automation/coding cybersec

[manic torrent]

I've dealt with people in jobs who don't understand shit about fuck. pretty sure having a pulse qualifies you for networking job

networking people are either amazing or useless morons

[pure olive]

I love this phrase

[olive stump]

I don’t have one, never stopped me

[wispy marsh]

That said, a good portion of ccna covers a LOT of networking foundations

[gaunt flower]

the one i got from my previous ISP let me go to its IP address and from its control panel i could add, i guess "guest" networks would e what you call it

[olive stump]

Wholeheartedly agree

[slim yacht]

yeah thats the thing

[wispy marsh]

Those foundations are what you need to breath

[pure olive]

i am always one of these two when it comes to networking

[pure olive]

breathe*

:3

[gaunt flower]

so, i guess, guest network functionality that lets you put more than one additional ""network"" out there

[manic torrent]

like... it's not rocket surgery. understanding how packets work gets you like 90% of the way there.

[manic torrent]

fairly standard these days

[olive stump]

I throw packets at the thing and the thing might throw them to the right thingo

Otherwise they disappear

• ✨networking ✨

[manic torrent]

the packets go down the well, and we hope for the best

[slim yacht]

um that would just be anothe r band i guess separated from ones you actually used. since they still share same dhcp server youre practically are in the same network regardless lol.

[gaunt flower]

yes

[olive stump]

You make a blood sacrifice to the BGP for your packets to follow least path

[undone drift]

who here is younger the n the Nintendo ds?

[slim yacht]

slow convergence kekw

[gaunt flower]

it'll be on the same network basically yeah

[gentle slate]

I really should invest into learning more about tech considering I live and breathe it

[manic torrent]

no, they don't.

[wispy marsh]

I don't understand how packets work, but I know how other things work

[gentle slate]

Packets work by going

[gaunt flower]

its moreso for my own sanitys sake more than anything else lol, having one dedicated for IoT, or Mobile Devices, etc

[gentle slate]

Vroooom

[slim yacht]

for home routers? technically yea actually. you cant actually separate their network since most home routers only supplies one dhcp server

[olive stump]

Let’s fix that with rSTP! ||/j||

[manic torrent]

.... wtf are you talking about. A guest network would have a different subnet, otherwise it isn't a guest network.

[olive stump]

No, most home routers stick the guest network on the same native VLAN

[slim yacht]

lemme just deploy one to see. maybe i got it wrong

[manic torrent]

you don't need more than one "dhcp server" to serve two dhcp contexts

[slim yacht]

^

[olive stump]

they call it a “guest” network but like…lol lmao

[wispy marsh]

That's what you're telling us - network segments

[manic torrent]

really? that seems... less than ideal.

[slim yacht]

thats the funky part lol, they only serve one

[olive stump]

There’s some layer 3/4 isolation but that’s it

[olive stump]

IT IS!

Home routers are a trashfire ecosystem

[gaunt flower]

its horrible and thinking about them gives me a headache, but i don't have room for a full networking setup, and once i get a permament place i'll finally bother with that

[wispy marsh]

???

A router is 1' by 1' by 4"

A beelink/minisforum is 3" by 3" by 2"

[gaunt flower]

No, i mean a full switch with rack setup type of thing

[pure olive]

hey hey hey

[manic torrent]

you absolutely do not need that

[wispy marsh]

That's where you're wrong

[gaunt flower]

yes, i don't need that

but i want to

[wispy marsh]

If you think you need it

[olive stump]

I need that, I don’t have it

Nor do I want it

[wispy marsh]

Then you're lying to yourself because you want to please somebody else

[olive stump]

I cannot stress enough, do not drop rackmount enterprise gear for your home

[wispy marsh]

You ever met the Emperor of Japan? He has this nice quote that I like to abuse.

Not so the dead... The dead are so very, very loud. 
And yet, lying is not in their nature. 
It is so... humbling - to listen to the dead speak.

[quaint venture]

Nah you defo need enterpise rackmount gear for your household

[gaunt flower]

I never said i needed it

never said i wanted to do it for someone

[wispy marsh]

You want it to please a voice in your head, formed by someone else

[slim yacht]

heh i checked my fact again about subnet segmentation for guess vs main network running on the same home router, they are on the same network. so theory confirmed i guess

[wispy marsh]

Is there a difference?

[gaunt flower]

it was formed by no one else

[manic torrent]

you're already the voice inside mayead

[wispy marsh]

A documentation, an idea, a solution, that's always somebody's work and thoughts

[wispy marsh]

Rent free innit?

[gentle slate]

I'll aim to become the amazing one

[quaint venture]

Always listen to the voices inside your head, they will guide you upon the right path

[olive stump]

All the best with it! 🥳

[slim yacht]

bold of you to assume it would fix router to router convergence anyway

[manic torrent]

I wish you luck, but I doubt it - if you were going to be good, you'd know stuff already

[gentle slate]

Then after I become amazing, I'll become complacent and lazy.

Just like dad taught me.

[slim yacht]

you mean becoming a senior engineer?

[olive stump]

Lmao mood

[gentle slate]

I give you a compliment and you put my motivations down? D:

[gaunt flower]

one of the biggest hinderances in my life is being unable to buy certain things i want becuase they only sell in batches

[wispy marsh]

Senior engineer at isp, your only knowledge is how to plug and unplug ethernet cables

[gentle slate]

[wispy marsh]

Linus is thinking of carrying the honeywell thermal pads

Me but with enterprise virtual appliances

[wispy marsh]

That's me!

[olive stump]

Do I need an enterprise virtual firewall at home? No
Do I want one to futz around with? Yes

[gaunt flower]

you see thats why i want to get some random old enterpise stuff to mess around with

oh and that issues lies everywhere, and can get very far away from aynthing tech related

you wouldn't believe how hard it was to buy a single indivudal custom embroidered sweatshirt i was looking for

[slim yacht]

uh you can buy cisco lab equipment set i guess. its still super expensive but you can actually get it as a consumer

theyre also those super old 2960 routers + some 100mb L2 switch

[vapid cypress]

Just make your own

[gentle slate]

Also how is one supposed to know stuff already? Most things I know ended up learning due to necessity

[gaunt flower]

unfortunately i do not have the ability to custom embroider clothing

[gentle slate]

[gaunt flower]

perhaps

[vapid cypress]

That's the problem

[gaunt flower]

i just like messing around with stuff the average consumer never uses

oh you dedicate a router solely for directly connected ? very nice to be honest

[gaunt flower]

i once had great fun trying to figure out how to integrate a new(er) computer to commercial-grade theatre equipment

[vapid cypress]

I love dangerous metals in my system ❤️

[manic torrent]

I am a terrible person

[wispy marsh]

I don't understand you

[gaunt flower]

btw, it is absolutely terrifying when a 12,000$ projector angrily beeps at you.

[slim yacht]

nvm im dumb that was a weird question tbh

[gentle slate]

Beep back at it.

[manic torrent]

I find that it's very rare for anyone to become great at something they didn't already have an aptitude for. Good? sure. great? not really

[gaunt flower]

also, theatre equipment is. Very. Very. expensive

don't even begin go think about the effort you have to go through to actually get the heat out of the projector

[manic torrent]

and the noise

[gaunt flower]

hint: it involves lots of tubing, and fan works, and roof vents

[gaunt flower]

i consider industrial fan noise to be very soothing and relaxing

[wispy marsh]

Command 'aptitude' not found, but can be installed with: aptitude

[gentle slate]

Isn't aptitude more for physical and mental feats. Aptitude for networking seems like a bit of a stretch. Isn't that either you know it or don't?

[gaunt flower]

((server racks, theatre audio, visual systems, the like))

[gentle slate]

Well actually scratch the physical part.

[manic torrent]

understanding computers is a mental feat. Understanding a complex dynamic system. A network is nothing but a distributed set of computers processing a shared copied data structure.

[gentle slate]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[wispy marsh]

Linux Foundation, Apple and Microsoft has made a lot of work for their systems to communicate with other systems

[gentle slate]

Guess I won't become great at anything.

[wispy marsh]

You don't have to

[gaunt flower]

theres one thing i really would've been afraid to touch if my theater had it:

Atmos.

[gentle slate]

Idk I do kinda want and have to.

[wispy marsh]

I'm average at everything but I try to get a basic grasp of everything I know

[gentle slate]

Otherwise life genuinely becomes devoid of purpose.

[wispy marsh]

I don't know how crypto algorithms work but I know how certificates and keystores work

[manic torrent]

just start doing stuff

[gaunt flower]

that shiz just sends a shiver down my spine thinking about the headache it would give me if i had to manage a full theatre's atmos equipment

[wispy marsh]

I don't know how packets work but I know how protocols, addresses and ports work

[vapid cypress]

do the squidward dance

[wispy marsh]

I don't know how to do automation but I can do basic scripts with scraps of information from the internet

[gentle slate]

The closest Ive got to aptitude is computers. Generally I always grasp stuff quickly. But who knows, maybe that's what actively using a computer for 15 years does to a human.

[wispy marsh]

Everyone starts somewhere

[gaunt flower]

on my own, may i add. Because i'm the only one working there that knows what's what inside the panels and what things do. Not like they have anyone to call other than me, lol

[wispy marsh]

I don't know how to fix software / hardware problems, but I know how to troubleshoot

Not everyone you meet is going to be great at something

[vapid cypress]

Erm how about you go study for a bigger purpose 🤓

[tepid jasper]

no i just have schizophrenia

[gaunt flower]

don't even ask about the conversion nonsense i had to do when i needed to input a simple 3.5mm cable into this.

[gentle slate]

Ew study. University was high key the most shit experience I've had in life.

[wispy marsh]

But they're good enough to support their own learning

[vapid cypress]

Doesn't have to be a university

[gaunt flower]

spoiler alert: i didn't have a RCA -> 3.5 at the time

[gentle slate]

Being around overgrown humans with adult freedom and having to talk with conceited lecturers, some of which don't even understand their own specialization was a sight to behold.

[gentle slate]

Oh. Generally here when someone speaks study it's university.

[gaunt flower]

spoiler2: it involved 6 different connectors and adaptors
spoiler3: there was a noticeable hissing noise.

[manic torrent]

You can do anything. There's nothing that says you have to be one thing. You can be many things.

[wispy marsh]

I'm in the middle (literally) of taking my diploma. The instructors give me the impression that they haven't made it, but as a student it's just amazing how they can teach their own subjects that well

[gaunt flower]

moral of the story: Audio hardware stuff is a PITA.

[gaunt flower]

this is specific to certain institutions and this varies wildly.

[vapid cypress]

It could be simple as getting a job in the field even if it's the lowest form of it

[slim yacht]

i mean you can just scrap dolby audio and get bose panaray their interfaces are very easy to setup as opposed to a whole dolby system

[wispy marsh]

If you can teach a man how to fish, you've already made it. You just need to either stop there or make more to satisfy your own curiosity

[manic torrent]

I'm writing an area audio management system at the moment, it's actuall pretty cool - the problem is that most of it is black magic that isn't explained to people, despite not being that hard.

[gaunt flower]

tell that to city management.

[wispy marsh]

Is it like the 17-zone nightmare that is Linus's house?

[gaunt flower]

the theater is owned by the city and our systems haven't been updated since 2007

[manic torrent]

it is arbitrary zone. You have areas which are in areas, so you could manage the whole house, or just one subset. It also has support for hardware controllers, like a midi controller or a streamdeck

[wispy marsh]

Nixsys

[tepid jasper]

least outdated city owned system

[wispy marsh]

A more complex homepod setup, I assume

[gaunt flower]

honestly man it's not their fault tbh

[manic torrent]

also linus shit doesn't have dual mono? having his systems managed by my system means you could just do it in software and change the routing

[gaunt flower]

its a town with a population of less than 10k and the most profitable city owned business is a liquor store

[manic torrent]

ironically, simpler. Stuff is too complex, and needs to be simpler.

[gaunt flower]

everything else operates in the red

literally

[wispy marsh]

That I agree

[tepid jasper]

that's fair

[gaunt flower]

Seriously, that entire theater is funded by a liquor store lol

[manic torrent]

https://github.com/hrdwrbob/curtain/blob/main/docs/plumbjammer.md

[tepid jasper]

i mean honestly if they blew the money on the theatre than more pressing issues then it'd be a problem

[gaunt flower]

yeah

[wispy marsh]

I found out the hard way that using a nested docker instance has way lower performance than a docker instance running on the host

[manic torrent]

.... I would have thought this would be obvious

[gaunt flower]

the computer they have there thats connected to the projector is actually my old HP tower PC

without internet may i add, so we also still get physical hard drives with the movies on them

[wispy marsh]

Wow, you're amazing

[gaunt flower]

it takes up to an hour to upload you standard 2-hour length movie, which it usually lies between, i want to say, 165gigs

[wispy marsh]

Yes, but I only had one proxmox instance and didn't want to run docker on the host

[gaunt flower]

probably 255 gigs is the larges i've seen, IIRC that one was dune

or avatar, one of the two

[wispy marsh]

I skimmed through your ghub page but only because I don't have much interest in home audio, and my audio comes from my devices' bluetooth or 3.5

[gaunt flower]

oh, and i guess there is "internet" up there, but its actually piped in through an old phone line, i have no idea if it works because i (still work there, but am only in town twice a month) left town

[polar fern]

Blue tall people

[manic torrent]

I don't even understand how or why though... like... I just stumble through life same as anyone, but I figure this is my community work - if I can get it done nicely, I can genuinely make life easier and better for people by allowing better/cheaper/easier audio management. The plan is to have a full management web interface, as well as a rpi distro so you can turnkey audio mgmt, a standard API and integration into windows, and all the major network audio everything.

[wispy marsh]

Homeassistant-like docker

[manic torrent]

yeah. There's "music assistant", but it ... doesn't solve any new problems.

this is basically home assistant for audio.

[wispy marsh]

I think I should make a blog somewhere about my findings and troubleshooting steps

[polar fern]

👀

[wispy marsh]

E.G. Airpods do not charge from windows devices unless you disable the HID associated with them

[manic torrent]

omfg I hate this sort of shit. I had something .. I forget what ... but it would only charge if it was actually connected to a host

[wispy marsh]

The easiest way is Devices & Printers -> Airpods Case -> Configure -> disable HID

[gaunt flower]

my problem is i have terminal laziness and i never bother with fixing issues i encounter that i could probably fix easily if i put effort into it

[manic torrent]

this is normal.

[novel ridge]

How do i find a video that was in my recommended a few hours ago that got refreshed and is not present anymore? It’s driving me nuts

[manic torrent]

by the same token, I have spent fucking HOURS AND HOURS trying to fix tiny fucking problems because rabbit hole

[gaunt flower]

same tbh

[manic torrent]

set fire to everything, because youtube hates you

[wispy marsh]

My iPhones/iPads used to do the opposite because the USB ports didn't supply enough power

[manic torrent]

yep. you can't win.

[novel ridge]

Or I didn’t save it

[gaunt flower]

and then whatever issue it was gets ~~magically fixed~

[novel ridge]

Eh I’ll look for it

[wispy marsh]

We can't win

But we can remember how to fix it

[gaunt flower]

why it stopped working? what was the issue in the first place?
Who knows!
At least it works now.

[wispy marsh]

Touching a HomeAssistant or NetPlan yaml was intimidating at first, but there were plenty of errors and it was finally corrected. Same goes for docker compose and ansible

[polar fern]

Windows driver updates are known to mysteriously do stuff like that.

[gaunt flower]

heck it wasn't even windows updating sometimes

although, it was a bethesda game

[wispy marsh]

Drivers are fun

[gaunt flower]

so that explains why

[wispy marsh]

The first time I learned about drivers was having a laptop with some amd 6300 or 630

I updated my stock 3yo drivers and my fps magically went from a stuttering 20fps to a smooth 60fps using the same settings

[gaunt flower]

do not ask what i have to do get the drivers working for my dell laster printer 1100

[wispy marsh]

That was the first time I received magic from AMD

I just liked AMD from that point onwards

[gaunt flower]

On any new system may i add lol

[manic torrent]

I learned how to press left shift, which bypassed autoexec.bat and config.sys so I would have enough RAM to run doom on our 4MB 386.

[gaunt flower]

the last driver for the thing was updated in 2012, lol

[manic torrent]

I am old.

[gaunt flower]

i uh, haven't been able to get it working with any macos system.

pretty sure that won't ever happen

so right now i have a dedicated PC for that printer.

anything to avoid the nightmare that is new-age printers

hi

[tidal minnow]

Hello

[vapid smelt]

damn you couldnt afforded the xtx

[tidal minnow]

):

Can't even afford the xt

Rx 570 8gb rn

[gaunt flower]

nvidia please why does my 3070 have the same vram as a rx 570

[vapid smelt]

cant even afford the rx 590 smh

[tidal minnow]

I still don't understand why fsr 3 can't support the rest of the 500 series cards

Only the rx 590...

[manic torrent]

it's ok, you may not ever understand.

plenty of people don't understand things and still live full lives.

[polar fern]

Anyone have a recommendation for a headset for editing videos/doing voiceover? My searches keep bringing up “gaming” headsets.

[manic torrent]

you absolutely do not want a headset for doing voiceovers, all the mics are straight garbage, more or less.

[vapid smelt]

whats the budget

[gaunt flower]

headphones with separate\ microphone

[manic torrent]

headset is fine for comms, absolutely not fine for recording.

[vapid smelt]

spend $90 on a xlr microphone setup

[polar fern]

$150

[gaunt flower]

i see no acceptable use for using a headset microphone

(other than pilot-related)

[opal thunder]

eh they are fine as long as you arent using them for production shit

[tepid jasper]

dont buy usb microphone fr

[polar fern]

Prefer over the ear. 3.5 mm wired

[manic torrent]

again, for comms, perfectly fine

[opal thunder]

i have hyperx cloud 2 and they are fine

[vapid smelt]

its hard to deep throat normal mics

[opal thunder]

real

[gaunt flower]

fine is an overstatement

[tepid jasper]

its also hard to sound like the mcdonalds drivethrough

[wispy marsh]

I have a USB fifine 670. Highly recommended for a basic setup, but you'd need software to remove background noise

[polar fern]

I don’t have room or budget for some standalone mic.

[opal thunder]

you an audiophile by any chance?

[wispy marsh]

The boom arm is a $10 taobao item

[gaunt flower]

get a 3.5mm lavier mic

[gaunt flower]

perchance

[opal thunder]

that explains it

[polar fern]

Sigh.

[opal thunder]

also why tf aren't your messages highlighted when you reply to my messages tf did discord do?

[polar fern]

It needs to be a headset.

[opal thunder]

budget?

[polar fern]

Over ear, 3.5 mm wired.

$150 usd

[manic torrent]

quality on EVERY headset mic is literal garbage compared to ANY standalone mic. If you are doing voiceovers, it doesn't matter what your space is, make it work

[wispy marsh]

I highly doubt that unless your headset uses xlr, the 3.5mm mic port will supply enough power for a mouthpiece mic

[manic torrent]

a $20 USD microphone will make a $150 USD headset look like a piece of shit

[opal thunder]

Hyperxcloud 2 are good if you need a mic

[mint siren]

why not 3

[polar fern]

I’m not looking for super high end I’m looking for what works for me at my budget.

[opal thunder]

haven't checked their specs but im expecting it to be overpriced for a not so noticable upgrade

[polar fern]

Nevermind.

[manic torrent]

yes, and I'm saying this is well within your budget, and I'm not talking about super high end, I'm talking about your nanna will notice the difference.

[mint siren]

im still mad HP enshittified the cloudIIs

[polar fern]

it needs to be a headset.

[wispy marsh]

I see

[manic torrent]

your requirements are wrong.

[wispy marsh]

Why don't you post a picture of your desk?

[gaunt flower]

get a pair of headphones, some tape, a stick, and a Lavalier mic

[tepid jasper]

^

[manic torrent]

It needs to work with your setup - absolutely. no question.

[vapid smelt]

[wispy marsh]

Maybe we can "change your mind"

[polar fern]

Nevermind… forget it jesus christ sorry I fucking asked.

[wispy marsh]

... you want to do voiceovers on the go

That's why you're so persistent on having a headset

[tepid jasper]

[wispy marsh]

Either that or you move about too often

[opal thunder]

oh wtf the cloud 2 is like 50 USD lmao so much cheaper than here

[tepid jasper]

might as well use your phone at that point

[opal thunder]

legendary prices

[tepid jasper]

you'll sound equally as garbage

[manic torrent]

steps:

• ask question to domain experts
• get shitty about getting answers you don't like.

[tepid jasper]

[wispy marsh]

I suggest bringing in additional context so that we can more accurately pinpoint your needs

You can't say "my router shite" and have us find out that you signed up for a 100/20

[vapid smelt]

just make a cheap xlr mic setup and get some stuido headphones

[tepid jasper]

actually ive been meaning to ask, how much differences does an audio interface make between a cheap one and maybe an ok one for an xlr mic setup?

and compared to usb

[gaunt flower]

my monitor refuses to do 4k!!
"did you try xxxxxxxsolutionxxxxxx"
yes!
"xsolution2x"
no
"what monitor do you have"
Acer 24” Class FHD Monitor

[gaunt flower]

it depends

what the XLR mic is, what interface you have

[tepid jasper]

i was thinking either an at2020 or 2035

whatever i can get cheap secondhand locally

[gaunt flower]

Hmm, not familar with it

but it depends on how much power the mic needs

[manic torrent]

mostly.... not much.

[wispy marsh]

Virtual resolution on gt1030

[gaunt flower]

and how much the interface can output

[manic torrent]

I wouldn't buy the UM2, I would get the next one up, but basically anything of that sort of level is more or less interchangeable

[tepid jasper]

i was recommended the umc22 or whatever its called

[manic torrent]

but you can get them second hand for $fuckall

[tepid jasper]

iirc

[gaunt flower]

my sm7b requires a inline amp, lol

[manic torrent]

yeah, which is the next level up

[tepid jasper]

is it worth it over a usb mic?

[gaunt flower]

yeah
