public-chat

[shut lichen]

of course. via any of the ports too

[dreamy rose]

it isn't apple yk,

[slim yacht]

and thats why it felt the same. i wouldnt say that a long lasting lulz. nitro's in general before 2022 model were quite iffy buy. well any budget gaming laptop were iffy before 2022

[gentle slate]

my HP laptop has a USB C port for decoration

well its actually for file transfer with phones

[dreamy rose]

that means they also do Displayport,

[gentle slate]

yeah it has display port option

[shut lichen]

being able to charge via all the ports has nothing to do with the fact that they are all USB4 with display capability lol

disclaimer: USB spec may differ on the amd versions, I can't remember

[gentle slate]

Well, my dream Framework laptop would cost 2,246 USD

[slim yacht]

type c rated for pd =/= does not mean attached to dgpu at all

[dreamy rose]

they are all capable of Virtualink. which means no matter what you can use PSVR2 as a Monitor.

[shut lichen]

why on earth are you bringing up the entirely irrelevant PSVR2 lol

[slim yacht]

also crossaint

[tired glade]

But less in future upgrades

[slim yacht]

chocolate crossaint

[gentle slate]

Hows 2.2k for a laptop? With the 7840HS and a RX7700S

coz I got no clue about laptop prices

[slim yacht]

uh, you can get 4080/core i9/r9 no?

[shut lichen]

much cheaper than the config I want

[dreamy rose]

a tad high. but upgradability first.

[slim yacht]

also amd advantage laptops quite good

[gentle slate]

I dont like intel and novideo

im full team red.

[dreamy rose]

you arent just buying s lsptop. you are investing in future upgrades

[slim yacht]

in that case should do you fine

[tired glade]

Upgrade to AMD 9000 series will be less than 2k

[dreamy rose]

i havent seen Nvidia GPUs in a framework 16 yet

[gentle slate]

2.4k if I tack on the R9 CPU option

Actually for only 200 extra dollar the CPU dont seem like a bad idea

[tired glade]

Also you will get extra PC for home use

[shut lichen]

I'd fully expect the highest end framework 16 mainboard to be under 1.5k since the highest end 13 board is 1k

[slim yacht]

strix g16/lenovo legion 5i

both of them have that exact config

[gentle slate]

aight shit yk, after my PC gets upgraded, I'll save for a framework laptop

[slim yacht]

altho since man wants an amd advantage laptops then.......

[dreamy rose]

Nvidia laptops are Mid anyway.

[gentle slate]

Stuff looks good

oh btw yall, I found out that changing my battery or upgrading the SSD is a pain on my HP laptop. Since the panel doesnt just slide off without the screws

[shut lichen]

hopefully there will be more options by the time I need to upgrade from my thinkpad... I want a chonky, stupidly powerful framework 16 gpu module to carry around

[dreamy rose]

horray you discovered plastic Clips

[slim yacht]

not the 4090 + 7945HX3D/13980HK 4090/7945HX 4090 config at least. these were the only worth buy lmao. not even joking anymore

[gentle slate]

I fucking hate plastic clips. Half the time they break

either theyre made of paper mache or im too strong

[chrome vector]

https://tenor.com/view/pooping-poop-toilet-sitting-sit-gif-7349797

[slim yacht]

also funny story probably, a 4050ti @ 50w can beat a 3070 @ 115w lulz. talk about improvements

[tired glade]

Had framework got 3d chips?

[shut lichen]

never buying a plastic laptop again, shit always breaks a bit when being pulled apart

[slim yacht]

nope. only asus

[tired glade]

....

[shut lichen]

it'd take you literally 5 seconds to find out what the framework has

[slim yacht]

they launch it as a scar exclusive also lol

[shut lichen]

7840HS and 7940HS

[dreamy rose]

are you really gonna tell me to spend like 6K on a ridiculously overpriced laptop and tell me its "Worth It"

[gentle slate]

btw will Framework recycle old modules that get returned?

[slim yacht]

https://www.amd.com/en/products/apu/amd-ryzen-9-7945hx3d

[gentle slate]

since I doubt you can use the framework GPU module for anything other than a framework GPU module

[tired glade]

Yes

[slim yacht]

because it is lmao. the only money youre paying in gaming laptops that doesnt fall short vs 3000 series laptops

[gentle slate]

Aight I vibe with that

[tired glade]

If it possible*

[shut lichen]

iirc there was mention of some sort of dock/adapter to turn them into tunderbolt/USB4 external gpus

[dreamy rose]

never said anything about the AMD Advantage laptops. whatever happened to the G14 Advantage?

[manic torrent]

You don't have 2k to spend on a laptop, let alone 6. Value depends on many things.

[gentle slate]

@vapid cypress Ait knif, I gotta thank you for introducing me to Framework

[dreamy rose]

i thought the G14 was the best last year

[slim yacht]

thin and light no? only razer competes with them

[slim yacht]

not really, razer was all aboard better thermally lol

their vapor chamber is magic

[gentle slate]

I just want a sleek laptop with nice specs and a good display

[shut lichen]

tbh, the io modules were what originally sold me on wanting a framework as my next laptop... the upgradability and easy repair is just a bonus

[dreamy rose]

Razer is Razer though. you ask a rando they would probably say they have no Business making laptops

[slim yacht]

i dont recommend razer without precautions tho, like exploding batteries lol.

[gentle slate]

I thought thats samsungs specialty

[slim yacht]

it was until razer made their own laptops

[shut lichen]

that was one phone model

[gentle slate]

I keep my S23 in another room while sleeping

[shut lichen]

or a support person telling you to remove the ground from the PSU

[shut lichen]

paranoid much

[slim yacht]

you said u thought it was the best last year. i told u otherwise. how does a rando suddenly come in man

[gentle slate]

Im thinking of setting up a microphone and speaker system so I can still hear the phone alarm

[shut lichen]

they've had a clean track record after the note 7

[slim yacht]

[gentle slate]

Wasnt Linus daily driving the blade

they got business making laptops if its nice

[shut lichen]

most of the company was for a short while

[dreamy rose]

no. i said it was Called, not that i thought.

[shut lichen]

which is how they discovered the issues with them

[slim yacht]

uh s21u on my side all night for 2 years.... so far im safe question mark???

[gentle slate]

Ohh

they no longer use them?

[slim yacht]

[shut lichen]

it's been literal years since this whole saga lmao

[manic torrent]

Laptops are all terrible.

[gentle slate]

thats when I last watched linuth

[manic torrent]

Desktops are terrible

Servers are terrible

[gentle slate]

ok I guess I just go with the Framework laptops. They seem pretty good

[manic torrent]

The true computer of the future is the phone and tablet

[gentle slate]

aint no more of that non modular bull

[dreamy rose]

in reference to the video from LTT talking about it, are you sure you aren't loosing your memory?

[slim yacht]

where did u mention ltt video anything bruv?

its you whos losing memories man

[dreamy rose]

sadly we will forever see Unmodular laptops as that is what society wants to see.

[dreamy rose]

at least i'm remembering the video.

[gentle slate]

you mean laptops with desktop componetns?

[manic torrent]

And because modular laptops are hard and expensive.

[lilac bear]

Galaxy Tab S9 💪

[shut lichen]

it's been 6 years https://linustechtips.com/topic/862402-razer-blade-4k-review-our-blade-issues/

[gentle slate]

It coincides with when I got my PC and shit

[shut lichen]

https://youtu.be/Hz9GfxCAXgs?t=490

[slim yacht]

can go for all amd lenovo legion also. but framework no problem

[gentle slate]

I used to be a 13 year old thirsting over PC gear

Then all of a sudden, a PC, a laptop and a phone appeared in my room. Aint watched linuth since

[manic torrent]

Most people used to be 13

[gentle slate]

One could say I became linuth

[dreamy rose]

and thats supposed to stop Acer from releasing a Modular laptop just like Framework? try competition them out of business or something as such you'd expect from big corpo?

[manic torrent]

So.... competition in the market is bad?

[gentle slate]

in fact, I've dropped my phone 4 times, my PC down the stairs, my laptop while going to the living room

if i aint linuses heir idk who is

[manic torrent]

His multiple children?

[gentle slate]

he has children?

[slim yacht]

so far playing with laptops you gotta watch out for things like:

asus rog: leaking liquid metal, qc on first batch, thermal issues
lenovo legion/loq/pavilion gaming: hinge breaking on gentle movement
Aorus: uh nothing much, just very expensive
gigabyte G: unfixable thermal issue lol
acer predator/nitro: a gamble, you might get a good one, or not
alienware: a portable pc with super ghetto design and thermal solution, cost a kidney however
msi anything: also cringe hinge
razer blades: batteries exploding (altho no newer cases)

you can use this information as you will

[dreamy rose]

no. i never said that. i said that there's no reason for them not to be bringing out models with Reparability through the roof and competing in the upgradable space

[gentle slate]

what should I watch out for on Framework laptops

[slim yacht]

never used them, so dont know

you can try reddit

[gentle slate]

I refuse to use reddit, thus I will use Lemmy

[dreamy rose]

its just like how there are no Perfect VR Headsets. they all are flawed in some way or another

[shut lichen]

what do you mean?

[gentle slate]

in reference to tutels msg

[shut lichen]

ah, well.. nothing

or nothing that we know of, and it's been plenty of time for any issues to become known

[slim yacht]

GT77 Titan/Scar 17+18se/scar 17x3D are actually latpops with no problem at all. you just have to find which model is just right.

[gentle slate]

damn. So theyre more reliable than big corpo laptops?

[shut lichen]

that's the general idea of them, yeah

[slim yacht]

also asus dumb for just putting 7945HX which is a copy of a 7950x into a laptop lol.

[gentle slate]

it should take me 6 months of meticulous pennysaving to get my dream framework laptop

[slim yacht]

same specs all aboard the desktop counterpart albeit its tdp

[shut lichen]

only 6 months? pretty good. they should be past the backorder stage by then lol

[gentle slate]

oh also I will be able to easily order replacement parts yeah? If I break the hinge or a corner gets seriously scuffed I can just mail Framework and theyll send replacements?

[shut lichen]

https://frame.work/marketplace

[gentle slate]

oh wait shit

I totally missed the Parts category

[dreamy rose]

are either of them AMD Advantage?

[shut lichen]

many framework 16 parts won't be listed yet as they're still shipping the initial batches of laptops

[slim yacht]

no. all top of the line laptops are equipped with 200w 4090

[dreamy rose]

nothing is perfect

[slim yacht]

7000 amd gpu will probably come later lol

most likely next year instead

[gentle slate]

ok I am genuinely gonna get a framework laptop

[shut lichen]

when you eventually upgrade, you can even use your old mainboard as a computer if you get ram and storage for it

https://frame.work/products/cooler-master-mainboard-case

[gentle slate]

Damn

[shut lichen]

no battery required, just connect power to the usb-c

[dreamy rose]

hey, at least you arent getting clowned on reddit for canceling your order over the LTT Drama

[gentle slate]

I need to read up on the differences between the mobile versions of CPUs and GPUs. Like are the framework CPUs and GPus as capable as desktop parts?

[shut lichen]

how does that have anything to do with this? you say the most random shit

[gentle slate]

Didnt evne know theyre sponsored

I learned of Framework from Knifity

[shut lichen]

they're not a sponsor

[dreamy rose]

they are Laptop parts, they are going to perform like laptop parts

[shut lichen]

linus personally invested in the company after the review they did

[gentle slate]

Ohhh

[shut lichen]

and in fact, linus bought his own framework 13 during the review video, that's how much he liked it

[gentle slate]

Meh I still dont care. I still subscribe to WoW after Blizzards fisaco

[dreamy rose]

Linus invested 250k into Framework. its not a sponse situation.

[shut lichen]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rkTgPt3M4k

[shut lichen]

ENTIRELY wrong unit there bud

[dreamy rose]

it actually happened. i watched this guy delete his account live

[gentle slate]

associating big corpo with personas kinda dumb move ngl

[shut lichen]

and entirely irrelevant to this convo

[gentle slate]

I really like that you can swap modules around depending on what IO you need

I dont always need an ethernet port. But when I do it prolly isnt there

[dreamy rose]

annoyed they took the Headphone jack off of the 16.

[gentle slate]

oh the 13 comes with a dedicated jack?

[dreamy rose]

mhm.

if you are looking at a powerful laptop dont bother and buy the 16

[shut lichen]

but they also added 2 more io slots, so it doesn't matter at all

[gentle slate]

oh so its a net positive of 1 slot?

and +2 if you use bluetooth headphones

[dreamy rose]

because of the Size. not because they couldn'tfit one on

[gentle slate]

tis the one im eyeing.

im sold on it at least.

[shut lichen]

https://youtu.be/0rkTgPt3M4k?t=1003 the point where linus bought it

[dreamy rose]

i love the idea of the FW16, i just cant buy it because its 3k over here and i'm getting a desktop instead

[shut lichen]

skill issue

[gentle slate]

the framework joke

[shut lichen]

they've got a nice framework 😏

[dreamy rose]

no Just Region issue

[gentle slate]

framework ships europe yeah?

[shut lichen]

✨ skill issue ✨

[shut lichen]

parts of it, yeah. and they're continually expanding their regions

https://frame.work/locale/edit use this to find out

[gentle slate]

mane I see no reason to even touch any other laptop manu

this sounds too good to be true

[shut lichen]

it's very much true

[gentle slate]

They do not support ordering to my country. I wonder if I can ship it to a Nederlandese friend of mien

and then have it sent to me

[shut lichen]

they might by the time you order

what country?

[gentle slate]

yeah Ill sub to the notify thing. Bulgaria

2.4kg with the GPU sounds quite light wow

hmm im actually curious about its thermals

[dreamy rose]

not really

[gentle slate]

its actually been awhile since ive been legitimately stoked by something.

[elfin jetty]

bro my pc weighs like a solid 30+ pounds

the case alone is like 25

[gentle slate]

is your pc a modular laptop

[elfin jetty]

nah but one project i really wanna do is build a portable desktop with built in screen

Muh baby

[dreamy rose]

people forget these are called Luggables.

[elfin jetty]

Yuh, ima stick mine in a suitcase

[dreamy rose]

maybe because they are dead

[gentle slate]

yo with framework, theoretically cant i use an expansion SSD for linux?

since they offer 1TB plug in storage expansions

or I could just get a 2nd nvme in there and install Linux on that

[dreamy rose]

Luggable my beloved

[dreamy rose]

just put it on your internal and run Windows off the external one

[gentle slate]

a question about whether or not you can boot off of the storage expansion modules they offer

[dreamy rose]

are they USBs?

[gentle slate]

They looked like USB C thingies ye

[dreamy rose]

theres your answer

just throw linux on your main drive and Windows 2 go the External. and you've got both he way you'd want it

[fossil frost]

something that pisses me off now.. .if i buy a game for my series x, via the microsoft store.. i dont also get the PC version... the series x is a pc, why cant i buy a game, and play it on either of microsofts main platforms...

[gentle slate]

whether itd run like shit or no

[fossil frost]

cloud gaming doesnt help either, because that only works for "supported" games

[dreamy rose]

did they ever cancel the play anywhere program?

[gentle slate]

afaik you can install linux on a USB stick but you prolly wouldnt want to install Linux on a USB Stick

[fossil frost]

it became cloud gaming didnt it? and then its only for gamepass games

[dreamy rose]

on an old one sure.

[gentle slate]

this is why I say fuck consoles

[fossil frost]

what a well thought out answer to my question

[dreamy rose]

i dunno, never paid attention after 2020, didn't care for PC Before 2020.

[gentle slate]

I aint gonna touch a console with a foot long stick even

the only good thing that came out of them was xbox live chat

[fossil frost]

thats your own closed minded, shit brained choice... and your own closed mindedness, doesnt change anything for me

[dreamy rose]

i wouldn't be using MS Store either. its Steam, GOG or never for me.

[gentle slate]

I dont see microsoft being very open minded with console and PC compatability either

which is why I aint gonna get one

as you said you cant buy a game on one and play on the other

[fossil frost]

literally every game on gamepass is fine to do it... but im on about a newly released non-gamepass game, which is bought on the MS store, and should realistically be play-anywhere

[graceful burrow]

https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/xbox-play-anywhere

[dreamy rose]

i want them to let me run Linux on the bare metal. i'd buy that shit in a heartbeat at launch. every time. Its a Gaming PC.

[gentle slate]

idk I hate everything console related

[dreamy rose]

like with the Series S theres the screen attachment. add KB/M and you got a Luggable ready to go.

[gentle slate]

from sonys incessant exclusives to microsoft shenanigans

[fossil frost]

seems limited to a small number of 1st party, and indy games

[gentle slate]

ye sounds pretty shit

[dreamy rose]

Sony doesnt do any work for their exclusives and they could all fuck off to PC and maybe even do better there.

[gentle slate]

dont they fund the exclusives

[fossil frost]

no, they take a 30% cut from everything, 50% on micro transactions

they just have a larger marketshare of players, so its worth more to be on playstation

[gentle slate]

regardless theyre still annoying. Itd be fine if I did my gaming on a playstation, but buying a console for 4 games is a shit deal

[fierce moth]

older consoles are better can u can use homebrew 😎

[fossil frost]

you can homebrew new consoles too, its baked right into the console now, which is why mod teams stopped bothering, because homebrew was the goal, not piracy

[dreamy rose]

Sony isn't winning Favors with me until they get their teachers pet Studios to remake or make a Sequel to ModNation Racers, and put it on PC.

[fierce moth]

ps5 be like nope

[dreamy rose]

while that is a W, that only applies to Xbox

[gentle slate]

Demon Souls remaster will be a PS5 exclusive 😭

[stray apex]

it already is?

[gentle slate]

is it out?

[dreamy rose]

Which sucks. but its also good because theres less reason to be going for the shitter console

[gentle slate]

wait what the fuck

[fierce moth]

lol no

[gentle slate]

well I will not acknowledge its existence until its on PC

[fossil frost]

didnt know that, i thought sony had learned their lesson from last time

[fierce moth]

plus nintendo seems to be sucking up to MS atm

[graceful burrow]

Still exists and that's the only tier of being right I care about

[dreamy rose]

you sure are Oblivious then.

[graceful burrow]

That's the richest thing I've ever heard lmao

[fossil frost]

havnt owned a playstation since the ps3 🙂

[gentle slate]

the ps3 is the only console i owned

[fierce moth]

i still have my modded phat ps3

[dreamy rose]

based. but the most based place to stop was the PC Vita, sadly thats not where i stopped because of my Brother. he HAD to have a fucking PS4. and fuck was that thing the shittest piece of technology i've ever had to lay my eyes on in real life.

[gentle slate]

one thing sony does right is having free multiplayer tho. Ill give that to them

[dreamy rose]

its not 2006 anymore

[gentle slate]

wait sony charges for online as well now?

[past kernel]

psp was great

[gentle slate]

why would one ever get a console

[dreamy rose]

what do you think PS Plus is for? Donations?

[gentle slate]

it was for their free games and shit wasnt it?

[dreamy rose]

nope. its so they can presure developers into giving them extra money

[fierce moth]

i remember nintendo had free online until the switch came along

[gentle slate]

so you gotta pay your electricity, internet bill, gotta buy their console and then you gotta pay them more to use your internet?

[past kernel]

yup

[gentle slate]

they still exist dw

[fierce moth]

i first played doom on a modded 2ds

[dreamy rose]

i still play half life

[gentle slate]

I bought the valve complete collection

going through half life and portal and shit

[dreamy rose]

"Blow it out your ass" -Dick Kickem

[fierce moth]

Still best controller hands down

[indigo plume]

Thinking about getting new case or cpu dunno if getting a new cpu is necessary tho

Already have 7600

[dreamy rose]

if you want the bigger number then go ahead.

[strong kettle]

ive been thinking of upgrading my 13600KF to a 14900K when that releases ngl

[indigo plume]

But the case I want idk if my 7900xtx fits

[dreamy rose]

never touched.

[fierce moth]

Shame

[gentle slate]

i wanna upgrade my CPU but not getting top line CPU doesnt seem nice

even though itd still be beneficial

[dreamy rose]

Gamecubes just aren't super common from what i've seen in my area

[fierce moth]

Controllers should be more common tho

[gentle slate]

eh i like them for specific games

I tried playing Portal with a controller. Miserable

[fierce moth]

Heck Nintendo did reproduction ones for smash wii u and smash ultimate

[dreamy rose]

Seen Mega Drives, SNESes and all kinds of other consoles but not Gamecubes being sold

i'm guessing the Gamecube nostalgic here really love their cubes or already picked places dry

[fierce moth]

I got my cube from Japan

Always check there

[gentle slate]

what antiquated connector does the PS2 use btw

[fierce moth]

As you can get some killer deals

[gentle slate]

I tried figuring out how to plug it into my monitor yday but it no fit

[fierce moth]

Av multiout

You can get a hdmi adapter from amazon

[gentle slate]

oh yall is the G502 dongle just a bluetooth dongle?

can I use it to connect my XBX controller to it?

[fierce moth]

No

The g502 dongle is a proprietary 2.4ghz interface

[gentle slate]

maaan im so sick of dongles and adapters

maybe I should invest in a bluetooth motherboard when updating my CPU

[indigo plume]

I'm replacing my g502 with like a gpro or something

[gentle slate]

I like my G502

I might get a mouse with more buttons tho. I need an MMO mouse in my life

[indigo plume]

I've never used the buttons on a mouse

[gentle slate]

I use them 24/7

[indigo plume]

I just use keyboard binds

[gentle slate]

back and forward in regular apps, ctrl and shift modifiers on mmos rn

[dreamy rose]

[indigo plume]

Will prob be returning my 7900xtx

[gentle slate]

I wish my S23 had an aux port. big Ls to this thing

[indigo plume]

Due to high idel power issues

[gentle slate]

oh dont return it. give it to me

[indigo plume]

I don't even own headphone with aux anymore

Mine are all Bluetooth

[gentle slate]

I own headphones with aux coz I fucking hate charging shit

[urban creek]

I love my s23ultra

[gentle slate]

hmm are my headphones charged? is my watch charged? Is my phone charged? oh is my mouse charged? Did I charge my controller?

[indigo plume]

I just have a charging pad that charges phone and ear buds at same time

[gentle slate]

is my microwave charged?

is the charging pad the size of a desk

[indigo plume]

I mean good mice last like 2 weeks on a charge

[urban creek]

can you charge buds from the wireless charger on the phone ?

[gentle slate]

oh yeah my g502 is actually lasting awhile

I still hate charging it tho

it uses micro usb. Disgusting connector

[fossil frost]

the hate for microusb has come from a few people not liking it for whatever their reasons are... and now everyone who watches their youtube channels, blindly dislikes it, because they are told to dislike it, and they have no idea why they dislike it, they are just being brainless sheep

[dreamy rose]

i hate MicroUSB Because i used it and sometimes STILL use it.

[fossil frost]

its not the best connector, but its also not the bane of all computing like people try and make out

[gentle slate]

every micro usb connector ive had fell apart.

[urban creek]

never had issues with it my self

[gentle slate]

7 cables ofr my micro usb phone, 5 cables for my XB1 controller, the XB1 controller jack is now also ruined

[fossil frost]

then you bought cheapo shit devices/cables, or are lying

[dreamy rose]

Lucky you.

[gentle slate]

mb for not buying the 25$ micro USB cable

[urban creek]

whats wrong with it ?

[gentle slate]

curious how my cheap type C cables have yet to die

[fossil frost]

people are too stupid to pull straight

[urban creek]

Oh I C how that could be a problem

many heavy handed users out there.

[gentle slate]

i used my S9 type C for 4 years. After its unfortunate death due to cat chewing, I heralded a 5$ type C cable from the dollar store. Its been with me for 3 years now.

[fossil frost]

i have 3 children, all with type-c devices, and i go through about 10 type c cables a year, because i dont trust them with £20 type-c cables... but... the 3 type-c cables i did spend real money on, that i use myself, are still as good as the day i bought them

your own confirmation bias doesnt make something a fact

[gentle slate]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

I still hate micro usb.

flimsiest connector i've ever seen

im boutta charge my S23 with the same cable I used to charge my S9

[urban creek]

why not use wirelss charger

[gentle slate]

its slow and annoying.

I cant use my phone while its charging. Plus I'll need a wire regardless and I am not home

[fossil frost]

no, its not, but it is wasteful, transmission loss is well over 30%

[indigo plume]

Wdym it's not slow

[gentle slate]

I dont really need it. I put my phone on the charger in the morning before work

[urban creek]

Im not to fussed about the efficency... I have sola power

[indigo plume]

It takes 2 he's to charge my phone wirelessly

With a cord 40 mins

[fossil frost]

my Qi charger charges my pixel7 from 10 to 90% in about 50 minutes

[shut lichen]

when you have like 45W cable charging, the 15W wireless is slow

[indigo plume]

My s23 ultra takes 2 hrs

Wirelessly

[shut lichen]

luckily my note 9 is from before cable charging went above 15W so it's the same either way for me

[gentle slate]

id vibe with wireless charging if you could turn an entire desk into a charger

[indigo plume]

And 40 min with 65w charger I have

[shut lichen]

that's only using 45W

[indigo plume]

Oh well

[urban creek]

That would be sick.... it would have the potential to cook things

[indigo plume]

I use it for phone and steam deck

Charging

[sleek urchin]

wrong channel

[sleek urchin]

sorry

[gentle slate]

can a phone limit the amout ov W that comes in (im not an electrician)

itd be cool if I can use my laptop charger to charge the laptop AND phone

[fossil frost]

so anyway... other tech stuff... went to the parent forum for my oldest sons high school yesterday, and several people complained that "the homework is sent out in different types of files, depending on what teacher they have and what class they have, some types of file i dont recognise..."... to which i added "you cant expect all families to have the same type of computer as the teacher, you cant expect all families to have the same type of computer as each other, or have the same software as the teacher or each other. if school is going to send out homework digitally, it needs to be via a software as a service platform, or, an interoperable format, such as PDF, which anybody can use as long as they have a device made in the last 25 years"... which, immediately lead to the head creating a new school policy today that, all homework must be PDF or via one of the SaaS platforms they use within school... 😄

[urban creek]

Yes it can limit its power draw

[indigo plume]

Wireless technology is just to slow to be viable option

For me atleast

[urban creek]

i can understand that

[shut lichen]

this is why we have google docs ffs

[vapid cypress]

Your welcome

[indigo plume]

I'm being told I need to upgrade my cpu

When I think 7600 is good enough

[fossil frost]

they are a microsoft based school, office365 is baked into their subscription, but some parents are too stupid to sign their kids into it at home 🙂

[gentle slate]

online education is a nightmare

I had to visit my father to sort out my brothers online shit.

[shut lichen]

I know for a fact gsuit and MS stuff can be linked together to provide both easily

[fossil frost]

i have 3 kids, dealt with it just fine through covid and after covid too, its really not that hard

[gentle slate]

nightmare as in technological knowledge

like signing into teams and shit

[shut lichen]

this is also why we have requirements for what computer you must have

[gentle slate]

my mother on the other hand ended up helping out the entire apartment complex with this

[shut lichen]

(obviously not specific model of computer)

[fossil frost]

so... typing in a username and password, that the school gave to you? if you are incapable of typing into a box, then you are not gonna have a good time in the rest of your life

[gentle slate]

no i mean.. I had to visit my father to sort that out since they couldnt figure it out

[shut lichen]

make all the parents come into school and attend a fucking IT class for a week

[gentle slate]

like the amount of parents that didnt know how to do it made it a nightmare

[fossil frost]

again, if they cant figure out how to type a username and password into a box marked "username" and "password", then they are gonna struggle in general

[gentle slate]

ehh not really. You dont really need PCs to survive here

you just become a tradesman and.. Work

[urban creek]

That is why you have remote desktop

[gentle slate]

gl telling them how to install that

[shut lichen]

no need on windows. quickassist is built in

[gentle slate]

gl explaining what quickassist is to them

[fossil frost]

many of them complained that "homework should be done on paper" and i asked them "why" "because thats how i did it" "yes, but you went to school 20-25 years ago like i did, this is a different world now, and we need to expect them to deal with their homework in the same way they would be expected to deal with work in the outside world when they get there, nobody writes stuff down with a pen and paper anymore, and that isnt a bad thing"

[gentle slate]

oh wait quick assist is actually quite simple

[shut lichen]

they literally just have to open it and type the code you give them

[gentle slate]

maybe they have the capacity to do that

[fossil frost]

i was unpopular with some of the parents 😄

[shut lichen]

💀

boomer mentality they have

[gentle slate]

My school broke my back with paper

I love lugging 15kg of books to school

[shut lichen]

paper for the large majority of school work is so wasteful

[fossil frost]

they were all mid to late 30s too, like me, but just couldnt handle that their kids are growing up in a different world to them, and want things to always be "the same"... the sort of people who were stupid enough to vote for brexit

[gentle slate]

in uni I told my professors that I will not touch paper

they were cool with it. Even the boomers. Based boomers

[urban creek]

they dont need to know what it is ... only to click on it.... My mum is old and she has difficulty with this stuff as we'll

[gentle slate]

I dont like doing that coz thats how u end up with walking security risks

[fossil frost]

my grandad is 80, and can figure this basic shit out just fine, anyone who claims they "cant do it" is just making excuses for being unwilling to try

[urban creek]

Glad I left the UK B4 all that Brexit shenanigans

[gentle slate]

brewho?

oh shit boss is comign and im gaming dark souls

I lost 17k souls to this.

[fossil frost]

hmmn... my oldests first french homework is "draw a french flag and stick it to your book"... im genuinely considering just sticking a plain white piece of paper to his book 😄

[urban creek]

speakng of games... is it cool to post links in here ? there is a game on Steam has a BETA test right now. "The First Descendant"

[gentle slate]

[gentle slate]

french 🤢

[dull granite]

how do i dlip my phone upside down

dlip

flip

it onlyit only goes horizontal but not upside down vertical

[fossil frost]

french is the standard 2nd language in the uk, for some reason, when it should be spanish, since spanish is more useful

[urban creek]

Agreed

[gentle slate]

in school I chose russian

because bulgarian is very similar to russian. And russian is my fatherland

I now do communication with distant grandmother and cousins

[urban creek]

I chose French and German (grew up in UK)

[fossil frost]

i HAD to do french, and choose german over music, because i hated music at the time, and now regret not doing music

[gentle slate]

I was gonna chose German until the teacher said I look like an SS soldier.

[urban creek]

Music is life

[dreamy rose]

thats when you run not choose to not do that class

[fossil frost]

recently started to relearn the guitar again, my 8yo is quite a good drummer too

[urban creek]

timing and coordination = great skills to have in life

[dreamy rose]

Drumming, not too hard, remembering where to bang and when is the hardest part.

[gentle slate]

I wonder if we'll ever achieve an actual port standard. USB C-fy everything

USB C, USB A, a headphone jack + hdmi and display port. Seems good

[neon mesa]

Piano is the definition of easy to learn hard to master

[urban creek]

not to forget confidence

[dreamy rose]

i wish USBC would last about 20 years so we could have a great time of universal charging

[urban creek]

Anyway peeps, my game has finished downloading im gonna go check it out. Peace.

[dreamy rose]

which one?

[gentle slate]

e

[fossil frost]

clearly you have never tried drumming 🙂

[fierce moth]

I wanna learn the piano

[urban creek]

ya that one they have a beta test on now... just click apply . it is guaranteed entry

[fossil frost]

thats the main reason we are paying for private lessons, hes really good, but doesnt think he is, and hes smashing through the grading process 🙂

[gentle slate]

I hate css

Why does cloud storage have to be so annoying to work with.

[tired glade]

Because you can have your own

[fierce moth]

Why are government websites so dogshit?

[gentle slate]

btw Total Commander is my newest beloved piece of software

[tired glade]

Mainly for traffic reasons

Total commander is like 35 years old

[gentle slate]

yeah but its new to me.

I never knew how much I suffer with Windows Explorer. Yesterday I organized my hard drives on my PC!

[gilded forge]

I use Winfows Ezplorer with QTTabBar and ExplorerPatcher

[cloud shard]

I’m done bro I just tried to fix my new PS3 that overheats too much and now it gets the yellow light of death

[fierce moth]

[empty iris]

PS3’s always run hot for some reason

[gentle slate]

total commander very nice app

[empty iris]

At least my Super Slim variant does

[gentle slate]

yall is there a way to prevent apps from infesting the Documents fodler

I actually wanted to use it for personal documents and shit. But its just full of random stuff

[fierce moth]

this might take a while

What speed is your ssd

[summer folio]

[bleak storm]

Ok man

[fierce moth]

It ain't a ssd

Well it's a ssd to hdd transfer

[bleak storm]

So shouldn’t it be fast

[fierce moth]

Not in particular

[bleak storm]

Oh

[gentle slate]

why does task manager look weird

[fierce moth]

windows 11

dark mode

[graceful burrow]

Pour one out for the win10 homie's that don't have tabs in explorer

[fierce moth]

for sure

my pc is technically "unsupported"

so fuck you MS

[tired glade]

Let's wait for 12 and how it will change everything again

[fierce moth]

2025 is gonna be the year of the linux desktop

[tired glade]

Maybe

Because it's not getting better for AVG person and Vavle don't want to release Steam OS to public

[fierce moth]

well win10 gets axed 2025

so heres hoping that linux gets better by then

[tired glade]

Software won't just stop working

But let see what 12 will bring

[fierce moth]

this is MS we're talking about

[stray apex]

nah

[fierce moth]

whos to say that MS wont put in some stupid lock

[tired glade]

We waiting for AI acceleration lock

[stray apex]

linux is never going to be a mainstream desktop OS

[tired glade]

So,Vista 2.0 incoming

[stray apex]

unless microsoft or apple decide to base their shit on linux

[tired glade]

Like iOS or Android are

[stray apex]

or google makes chromeOS significantly more viable

[fierce moth]

11 was supposed to be the vista of our time

[tired glade]

Mac os is Unix based

[stray apex]

why would it be?

computer hardware hasn't advanced nearly as much as the vista days

you can run win 11 on 5 year old hardware no problem

[tired glade]

Keywords supposed to be

[stray apex]

vista's problem was just that all the xp shitboxes couldn't run it properly

[tired glade]

It can get even worse

At least 11 not ME

[stray apex]

win 11 is fine

it's barely different from 10

[tired glade]

That's why I will never touch it

[fierce moth]

my first laptop had vista

good times

[vapid cypress]

All that stuff that burnt australia last time grew back because of the rain

[crystal mirage]

yeah I live in the SE suburbs so i'm fine here

[tired glade]

SE?

[crystal mirage]

South east suburbs

[loud drum]

You'll be fine

Worst that could happen is the smoke suffocates you

Sort of like it did to canberra last time

[crystal mirage]

yeah in 2020 the sky was basically red

pretty crazy looking

[gilded forge]

maybe eat

[tired glade]

You should have detector for that

[gilded forge]

ew 2020 don't remind me

[jagged valley]

I assumed it was still the Beta test of season 2

[crystal mirage]

yeah I think they are testing it in small areas at the moment

[jagged valley]

yeah up here in SE QLD we're still in the beta test

[loud drum]

I have a photo I will try find it

[loud drum]

I read an article and they are doing heavy beta testing up where you guys are at

[jagged valley]

its been going on for a fre months I believe - but slowly speeding up

few*

[loud drum]

It is already getting to 30 degrees and it isn't even summer yet

[jagged valley]

but wdym, surely when you chose the Australian server you knew that Winter was only 3 days long

[crystal mirage]

here in vic it is only 16 tomorrow

[jagged valley]

huh

[crystal mirage]

at least according to google

[gilded forge]

[crystal mirage]

[jagged valley]

[gilded forge]

[crystal mirage]

[loud drum]

I cant find my photo

However I can show you this

NASA satellite images of the 2019-2020 fires

[crystal mirage]

[loud drum]

It was a fun time.

[jagged valley]

holy shit - thats very orange

[olive stump]

Woooo heatwave

[jagged valley]

[loud drum]

We carried around wet clothes to filter our breath

And it's looking like we will have to do that again this summer

[crystal mirage]

here's one taken from Melbourne by me

on january 14th

[loud drum]

At least it isn't pure orange, kinda looks like those chinese cities that have terrible air quality

[crystal mirage]

yeah I don't have any orange ones

but it was orange here as well

[jagged valley]

El Niño why have you forsaken us

[loud drum]

The best part is that all of that shit that burnt the first time is back

Because of the heavy rain the last few years

[jagged valley]

fun

[loud drum]

So we are truly ready for the 2nd season of the bushfire battlepass

[jagged valley]

whats the level 100 reward?

Albanese going to Hawaii? 🤣

[loud drum]

$160bn in property damage (double season 1)

[loud drum]

That's tier 55

[jagged valley]

yeah makes sense - hopefully we only get to the mid 30s

[loud drum]

Best part is he does it again at tier 75

[jagged valley]

Im in a vc and I almost just burst out laughing

[loud drum]

To be fair to scomo, his time in office was hectic

[crystal mirage]

Half the country burning, worldwide pandemic

He was being tortured

[jagged valley]

WA is it's own country though so it's excluded

[crystal mirage]

[jagged valley]

Western Australia area: 2,527,013 square kilometres.

Queensland area: 1,729,742 square kilometres.

[loud drum]

WA is so unpopular

[jagged valley]

New South Wales area: 801,150 square kilometres.

Victoria area: 227,444 square kilometres.

[crystal mirage]

so kinda like canberra

[loud drum]

Even the fires decided they wanted the outher side of the country

[fierce moth]

You clearly never heard of south Australia

[crystal mirage]

yes I have never heard of it. What is it?

[loud drum]

The fires were in canberra so we are objectively more popular than WA

[jagged valley]

im not subbing to lt

[slim yacht]

you letter swapped? did you copy or clone your os man?

what is going on lol

[pure olive]

Unconscious but not asleep?

[past egret]

non-REM sleep

watches mostly detects movment

so if youre moving a lot it doesnt think youre sleeping

[vapid cypress]

I think it watches heart rate

[past egret]

along with movement

[vapid cypress]

mostly

Yeah since you get paralyzed when you sleep

[summer folio]

Why is #tech-chat-1 so much better than #tech-chat-2 ?

[west oar]

lvl 1 crook vs lvl 99 boss

[neon mesa]

what is that small card

[west oar]

gt 430

gigabyte oc

[vapid cypress]

Bawls

[last solstice]

what argument can I have with the people of the internet today

[plain oyster]

More doors or wheels

[last solstice]

doors

wait no neither

[pseudo girder]

tech chat is mad.

can anyone tell me something i can do to fix audio stutter on a b550 board with a 3070 ti, a 5800x and installling an m.2 gen 4 caused extreme audio stutter even removing it cant fix

its limited lanes, but why still occupied overtime by something not even there.

turned on legacy, disabled tpm...... perfect until i upgraded my drive, its not in now.

i need to disable legacy and take a week to reconfigure my shit.

i cant cause work, fucking hell.

[robust crest]

Idk if that is true but I saw an article that says Xbox wants to buy Nintendo and Warner Bros. 💀

[pseudo girder]

plz helpman!

i wanna play my games, i just thought cloning ant hotswapping was fine, but its broken.

i need a z970

no way to revert it even if i completely rolled back windows

plugged that in and i think the board is fried.

all off and powered down

but that doesnt stop the pcb burn smell..

[atomic vessel]

damn a17 benchmarks not looking too good

[last solstice]

where PPW

thats the actual shit

nvm I see the dots

[atomic vessel]

3dmark solar bay too

10 watts

[last solstice]

why does this always happen when they change the gpu so that they can get more power out of it

[full zinc]

Any good low latency remote desktop streaming software for IPad OS? Something like parsec is what I'm looking for

[atomic vessel]

idk lmao
snapdragon gen 2 beat the a17 in GFXbench too, what is going on with their gpus

going by leaks, the exynos 2400 gpu could outperform the a17 lol

[pure olive]

Crossposting cringe

[full zinc]

Public chat I thought was better was gonna delete previous msg

[pure olive]

Ok

[last solstice]

maybe they are using propriatary draw calls that would rreatly improve performance but are not being used by the software?

[atomic vessel]

maybe
i hope it's something that could be fixed with software because this is a pretty bad sign for apple or tsmc

[last solstice]

any way im starting to hate gpu's they stupid and dont work

[night heron]

wdym dood? it scores 2900 in geekbench 6 single core

snapdragon 8 gen 2 only gets 2000

[atomic vessel]

power consumption's not satisfactory

[night heron]

45% single core performance lead is bigggg

[atomic vessel]

power consumption sucks at high performance levels apparently

[last solstice]

I mean honestly this is just one outlet you got these leaks from. + still IOS 17 is in beta. soo we wait and see ?

[atomic vessel]

CPU peak 14W, GPU peak 10.5W

yeah it is worth waiting

in part because some of these results are a bit shocking to say the least

[full fossil]

hello

[neon mesa]

sooo apple simply cranked power limit way up to get that sweet halo benchmark scores

in theory if the 8Gen2 GPU power is cranked also, it will beat the A17 assuming linear perf/watt

also damn, didn't know 8Gen 2 is better than A16 for less power

[full fossil]

for phones?

[harsh quartz]

I swear they name their chips like that just to confuse people

[tranquil siren]

guys red brown or blue switches? have never used any of these i have only laptop so far but i buy keyboard for gaming

[harsh quartz]

Personal preference but I like my tactile switches

[neon mesa]

can't wait for 8Gen3

[keen cedar]

I prefer red or blacks

[harsh quartz]

IMO gaming benchmarks shouldn’t be a thing for phones and phone hardware

[spice pine]

but then how would the apple haters dogpile on the yearly release?

[vapid cypress]

Apple bad

[prime solstice]

But then how else will ik if my iPhone 11 can handle death stranding

[harsh quartz]

Bruh imma dogpile on the yearly release cause it’s apple and a yearly release is dumb AF.

[harsh quartz]

Just assume it can’t and leave it be :p

[prime solstice]

But I want a walking sim on my phone

[harsh quartz]

Pokémon go

Or Gasp, that’s more of a walking sim

[lilac bear]

"yearly release dumb"
bro that's all phones😭

[harsh quartz]

Yes, and it’s dumb when all phones do it

[spice pine]

can’t agree more

[harsh quartz]

But apples are the worst cause apple fanbois make a big deal about it, meanwhile nothing even changes between the 14 and the 15 other than the charging port

[lilac bear]

can't agree more

[spice pine]

and the new telephoto lens, and the chip upgrade, and the action button, and the titanium chassis, etc. but yeah

[lilac bear]

titanium is stupid
I'd rather break 1000 S23Us than admit it's a stronger metal

[neon mesa]

Oh, more shit android has for the last 10 years

[lilac bear]

titanium is not common in Android bro

[neon mesa]

I'm talking telephoto

[harsh quartz]

Telephoto lens is useless to most people, the chassis is only on the pro and max which is a whole different conversation, the action button doesn’t deserve a whole new model for it, and the chip upgrade isn’t useful for the vast majority of people

[lilac bear]

teledeez

[spice pine]

oh wow what an original and nuanced take, not factoring in the hundreds of android device manufacturers and non-standardized development

[neon mesa]

I'm not trying to be original but ok

[spice pine]

… but they’re still differences? doesn’t change my point.

[neon mesa]

That sarcastic remark is also, almost as unoriginal as my statement

[lilac bear]

telephoto is useful 😭

Samsung always makes a big deal out of it

[spice pine]

200 Megapixels!!!!

[harsh quartz]

Ik il, but they’re not differences big enough to constitute a whole new model for every year, the only thing that justifies a new model is the charging port change and they only did that cause of the EU laws

[neon mesa]

New port that's forced by the EU law.
And a chip that makes my exynos handwarmer looks cold.

[harsh quartz]

A new port that should’ve been introduced 10 years ago and a chip that can…. Run X faster?

[lilac bear]

bro is flexing Exynos 😭

[neon mesa]

That's not a flex

[harsh quartz]

In no way was that a flex

[neon mesa]

I literally called it a handwarmer

[lilac bear]

your bank account isn't a flex either

[neon mesa]

Truly a comprehension issue

[lilac bear]

good thing I use android

[harsh quartz]

I feel like I’ve truly missed a step in this conversation

Cause I have no idea how fionya insulting the iPhone led to them flexing their bank account

[spice pine]

I’m only an “Apple Fan” so long as it pisses someone off. 🤷‍♀️ i’d sooner go without a phone entirely

[tranquil siren]

totally correct

[tidal minnow]

Until my phone can run crisis it automatically loses to my grandads 9800gt

[lilac bear]

phones are useless

[spice pine]

give me a pager or something

my phone is quite literally a glorified discord browser

[young bluff]

BREAD

[spice pine]

total usage for the week

[lilac bear]

can an iPhone make bread?

no it ain't
