[tidal minnow]

Dam uhm.... Good morning?

[left viper]

i have some exciting news to share

[orchid wagon]

hey uh

can someone help me out with a small modification to this 3d printer board

basically there's a USB chip on it that limits it to 250kbps and bypassing it or removing it enables native usb bandwidth (1.5mbps)

I just need help "decyphering" this instruction manual

[mint yoke]

🍞

[manic torrent]

So, ask your specific question

[orchid wagon]

Okay cool. Just wanted to see if anyone was able or interested in helping before I sent anything

Is it fine if I send the text file and the pictures that go along with it?

oh nevermind I can't, it's fine

step 1 says this:

1. Cut two traces near the CH340 chip (1), two going to endstops (2) and remove two resistors (3) as shown. Scratch off some of the mask from the traces on the microcontroller side (2). You can also remove the CH340 if you want.

I don't know if I need to do all of those steps or if I can just remove the CH340 ic

Since I have a hot air station it would be easier to remove the ic altogether but I don't know if I would still have to cut the traces

[manic torrent]

I mean it says explicitly you can remove it

[orchid wagon]

Okay cool that's all I wanted to know, thanks

@graceful burrow sooo... me the windows absolutist has became a full time linux user and i converted 4 others 💀

The battery life on my laptop is amazing....

With linux

[fierce moth]

What distro?

[dull granite]

linux

[dull granite]

you sound like vegan

[neon mesa]

Oh no, i love meat

[fierce moth]

I daily driven Linux a couple of times

But I've relapsed

the animals' lifes on our earth are so amazing

[neon mesa]

I only use it for my laptop, dual booting also so i can always use windows when needed

[fierce moth]

I dual boot on desktop

Arch

[neon mesa]

I don't have a reason to use linux on my desktop so i stayed

Laptop however, my laptop is a dual core i3 1005G1 and it's way lighter

Not to mention sips battery

[fierce moth]

I might daily drive Linux on laptop if I get one

Iirc you can get a refund for the windows tax if you ask

[tired glade]

Wait, Windows moving to subscription model?

[dull granite]

not really

afaik it's not gonna affect consumer windows a lot

mostly enterprise

[tired glade]

Oh, those subscription

That's a thing already

[fierce moth]

Volume licensing is the term of the day iirc

[lapis solstice]

I dual boot on laptop mostly because of gaming. It's not pleasant to game on Wayland

[fierce moth]

Wayland sucks for gaming

Cause pretty much anything is optimised for xorg

[lapis solstice]

Yep learned the lesson

[lapis solstice]

Especially steam, it doesn't support Wayland natively so was a very bad experience for me

[dull tapir]

does using work installation instead of personal while installing windows remove forced usage of account and onedrive

this is such a bs

[dull tapir]

wondering how is tiny11 debloating tool

and what is least bloated edition

[gentle slate]

Windows is a piece of shit https://i.imgur.com/EquPvfZ.png

man cant upgrade his PC in 2023 no more.

[carmine light]

What did you change?

I had that happen once, after building a whole new PC. All I had to do was call them and claim "I just changed my hard drive because it failed" and they activated it for me.

been on that same license for ages now. Currently on Windows 11

[carmine light]

What's this "forced usage of onedrive"? I have Windows 11 on my PC at home, not a work install, and I don't have onedrive installed at all

I uninstalled it immediately

[full fossil]

Rip Israel

[gentle slate]

Motherboard, CPU and RAM

[carmine light]

We don't talk about politics here

[dull tapir]

all documents are in "path of onedrive"

like desktop and documents

and constantly get loaded for syncing despite uninstalling onedrive

[carmine light]

That's only if you have Onedrive configured to back those directories up. I had all that changed before even updating to Windows 11

Only "Pictures" were in my onedrive, and I recently dispensed with that too. I keep my own backups

[dull tapir]

i reinstalled windows 11 multiple times

[carmine light]

I'm not sure what you're saying

[dull tapir]

windows 10 never made that i always had local no sync

i am not able to post images here

i made a post in tech support earlier

as soon as i install windows they are already synced with onedrive even if i skip email

i want to make it purely offline and local

[carmine light]

When I installed 11 it asked me if I wanted to use Onedrive

[dull tapir]

it never asked me

only way to skip email is if i go "work" instead of "personal" but onedrive is always presnet

[carmine light]

but idk man I haven't installed 11 that much. You might wanna make sure you didn't skip the prompt? You could always find a custom install of 11 that has Onedrive removed, or create one yourself. I haven't done that since 10, but it shouldn't be that hard to create your own custom installation media

[dull tapir]

even uninstalling it keeps it synced

[dull tapir]

this is why i installed windows 10 yesterday

but windows 10 gets stuck each time on "getting things ready" for hours

[carmine light]

Or that yeah. Just stick with 10. I love Windows 10

[dull tapir]

visually i prefer windows 11 but there is so many more stupid bloat than on windows 10

but idk why it gets stuck on getting things ready each time

[carmine light]

It might be downloading crap in the background. Try installing offline?

[dull tapir]

it installs windows in less than a minute

but after first restart after updating

it keeps updating and restarting pc into infinity

all i did was use msi center to install drivers which pops up automatically and windows updates

[carmine light]

What installation media are you using?

[dull tapir]

ventoy and i use iso files

i have w11 and w10 also a couple of linux distros

[carmine light]

I mean where and when did you get the Win10 files?

[dull tapir]

yesterday from microsoft

i used media tool to download iso

w11 is a month old but w10 is a day old

[carmine light]

Ah, idk then man. I'd probably try to just let it run "forever" lol. If it goes more than overnight I'd probably call it a problem then. That's provided you don't absolutely need access to the PC

[fierce moth]

If you use a phone or Linux you can get an iso directly from ms

[dull tapir]

i left it for hours and nothing happened had to turn power supply off and reinstall it

i reinstalled it multiple times and never took that long

[fierce moth]

Or you can cheese it by using some mode on chrome

[dull tapir]

i need access for work

[fierce moth]

Forgot the name tho

[dull tapir]

i will try w10 again i just hope their update is not corrupted again

which w11 edition are you using

[burnt bone]

Windows updates are notoriously faulty and slow. I just use DISM to deploy Cumalative updates from the MS Update Catalogue

Less room for errors

[dull tapir]

it is really unfortunate

[burnt bone]

Ofc i have to disable all autoupdate services

[dull tapir]

i usually check for updates no cumulative updates only major ones

[burnt bone]

Pardon my cringe but where Linux shines is the instant updates.

[dull tapir]

depends on the distro but yes

[burnt bone]

Like it's literally just replacing/updating files idk how Microsoft messed that up

[dull tapir]

for me often updates are red and corrupted while downloading windows updates idk why

Hallo everyone.

[silk island]

BIOS updates are fun

[quiet mural]

Has anyone here successfully brought up a device tree and built android from source?

[silk island]

Years ago I did, for my old LG G3

But I don’t use android anymore as my daily device

So I’m not familiar with the process anymore

[rich plaza]

I love doing BIOS updates with my AMD Graphics card when My PC is at risk of turning off ;)

[quiet mural]

I have never really used iPhone

I got android by Choice

[rich plaza]

wow, evelyn has been here for ages

[quiet mural]

I need to build AOSP for my tablet

A Google Pixel C

[silk island]

lol yeah

[silk island]

I prefer iPhone personally but if you prefer android that’s cool, it’s just not really for me :(

[quiet mural]

I could never use an iPhone

Or anything apple really

I use Linux on my PC

I try to only use open source products if at all possible

[silk island]

I don’t really differentiate between proprietary and open source tbh

If something works the best for me, that’s what I go with

[quiet mural]

I daily drive a Google Pixel 6

For a laptop I have a surface laptop 4 with Debian

And I have a Android/ChromeOS build server that also had debian

And yes to make it clear I believe Chromeos and Chromebooks are good

[hardy cobalt]

Linus is going to be using a very out of date version of Android D:

[dull tapir]

does anyone know if selecting personal or work has any difference on pc or impact

when you are installing windows

[zinc oracle]

thats a plus

[silk island]

no its not

no updates = very insecure

[zinc oracle]

maybe not for linus

like its not a plus for him

[silk island]

i think he said it was in his video

[zinc oracle]

we should force linus to learne barebones programming and development, and make updates for old lg devices himself

[turbid falcon]

the difference being is that he has friends, much more of an education and money than yourself

[dense coral]

Especially the underlined part

[tidal minnow]

I just finished jedi fallen order. W game

[graceful burrow]

is that the new one

[tidal minnow]

The first one.

[hardy cobalt]

what gappened

[tidal minnow]

No. The new ones called jedi survivor.

Very good games. Personally I'd recommend them to anybody.

There is a souls like aspect to it however so you may not like it if that's the case.

[graceful burrow]

I've played a bit of the first one it's closer to a batman game than a souls game tbh

[slim creek]

I watched my friend complete it

looks fun

[tidal minnow]

I guess. It feels like alot of games at once.

Windows is mid ngl

[harsh quartz]

windows is very mid, but at least it works

its much harder to get it to work well 100% of the time

yeah but then i would have to learn a lot of new stuff and thats hard, windows is easy, aint gotta learn anything, just plug and play

and ive never had a device that doesnt have a windows driver

dont get me wrong, im not saying windows is perfect, its mid, but i know its gonna work 100% of the time with literally no effort from me

personally i have never had that happen, anecdotal evidence doesnt mean much to me

doesnt cause me an issue. like i said, it aint perfect

and linux has its uses, but i dont have a use for it

except breadOS

breadOS is perfect

it says theres a breadOS but it doesnt have any desciptions and no one here was brave enough to download it

What I want from windows co-pilot or whatever it's going to be is to be able to ask it a question, if it does not know the answer to that question, it can search the web- find a site, read the site, figure out the answer to my question from that site, then tell me that answer, all without bothering me for any input whatsoever, I don't want to know the website exists, I do not want to have to read the site myself, it needs to be able to correctly summarize and present the info requested of it entirely by itself.

A future version should be able to do the same from any form of media- images, video, gifs, audio from podcasts, etc.

which are arguably "fair use" - but also not really.

legal/moral/ethical/platform specific/fair/sensible/enforced/etc are all factors in terms of content re-use

Can't 5G SA hurry up already.

Hate 5G NSA because in my area they turn the 5G towers off from 1AM to 5AM because for 5G NSA you are running both the 5G and 4G towers so it's extra power consumption, where if it's 5G SA, it's just a 5G tower and you don't need the 4G towers to do none client side data transmission.

Also faster upload speed and lower latencies.

thats nice to.

but for me it's mainly the powering down of the 5G towers overnight.

And I would be getting awesome speeds at that time as well if they didn't turn them off.

is there any affordable dac that isnt ass

[glass lantern]

Digital to Analogue Converter

You can spend for like 3

$30 to like $10,000s

[manic torrent]

apple DAC

[glass lantern]

in all seriousness If you are using like $100 and less headphones / speakers like you don't an awesome DAC really, and it will last forever as long as you are not Linus level clumsy.

If you have a $300+ pair of headphones or speakers what were you doing using the motherboard sound in the first place

[gentle slate]

I aint using $100+ headphones but im super wary from that shit. Every time I've spent less than 50 Ive gotten burnt by audio stuff

tfw you get something and it turns out to be garbage

[manic torrent]

get an apple dac. cheap as fuck, really good.

[glass lantern]

Ah I had assumed it was just passing a analog signinal through the USB port, but yeh that is cheap.

does it work through Windows/Linux/Mac

[gentle slate]

I remembered my headphones came with a crappy lil DAC thing. Audio quality's a bit dubious, but it aint got static!

This oughta do till I get an actual DAC

Oh yall, how long should one stress test an overclocked GPU?

[glass lantern]

Thing is it is an "actual DAC" it's not great obviously, but if you are going to be using a sub $100 headphones it should be more than acceptable as long as you only need stereo.

again I don't know if it works with windows

[manic torrent]

Yes

[glass lantern]

cool a nice option if I ever need it, personally I have an old sound system that using toslink and the sound system has it's own DAC and I don't even own a pair of purely wired headphones anymore so, not personally in need, but it's a nice option to have.

Although I will be replacing it within the next year or 2 it's 15 years old and only 2 speaker and the sub works anymore...

was a 5.1 surround sound system, but...

15 years happened and I took the covers of the front of the speakers soon after buying them which left them susceptible to damage over time.

I was like 17 at the time and they looked cooler with the faces off.

nowerdays I would keep them on, but yeh dumb 17 year old not thinking about the future shock horror.

probably would have lasted another 10 years if I had left them on.

got my moneys worth though I suppose.

[manic torrent]

Uhhhh wtf are you doing to your speakers

[lilac bear]

Ok this pleases me more than it probably should… https://a.co/d/0Tih6vm

[tame mirage]

Do you guys think I will notice the difference in FOV between a curved (1500r) 24 inch monitor and a flat 27 inch one?

[polar fern]

Yes

[tame mirage]

Do you think it’ll be a super drastic difference?

I’m looking to make the jump from 1080p 144hz to 1440p 144hz

But don’t really wanna pay the premium for another curved monitor

[pliant karma]

lol I was planning on getting it for fun

[tame mirage]

And I don’t want switching to a flat screen to throw off my aim and shit in CS and Val

[pliant karma]

considering the big buttons are just mechaincal swicthes too

[polar fern]

It’ll be noticeable, but they’re two different viewing distance use cases

Foxes ❤️

[tame mirage]

Would the change in curvature throw off my aim in FPS games?

Potentially?

[polar fern]

What is the viewing distance of the 24 inch curved?

I love all wildlife

[tame mirage]

Uh, I’m not sure, but my face personally is about 12-15 inches from the screen

[polar fern]

That’s a lil close but I think you’ll notice it most with your eyes, being less strained because you’re not having to constantly change focus as drastically

[hardy trout]

im broke is the gtx 1650 still good

[polar fern]

Yeah, hedgehogs are awesome

Cute

[tame mirage]

Well I own the curved one already. I’m thinking about upgrading but the model I’m looking at is flat

[polar fern]

@hardy trout Budget?

[hardy trout]

for the card or the whole pc

[polar fern]

@tame mirage you will notice the difference, mostly in eye fatigue.

@hardy trout Card

[hardy trout]

~$150

[polar fern]

☕️

[tame mirage]

Interesting. I will see if I can find a model that is curved. I don’t like the idea of super curved, but obviously the larger the screen, the bigger the curve will be by association. How do I match 1500R curve on a 24 inch screen to a 27 inch screen

[polar fern]

@hardy trout You in US?

[hardy trout]

yes

[polar fern]

@tame mirage sec

[pliant karma]

ah this is fun have no clue if the 8Bitdo keyboard has north or south facing hotswap sockets so I'll prob wait till someone mods it

[polar fern]

@hardy trout Think I got a solution for you.

[hardy trout]

do tell

[pliant karma]

welcome to keyboard nerd stuff

I am picky as long as it has south facing sockets I know my switches and keycaps I have will work with it. North facing it's gonna be hit or miss with compatibility

north

[tame mirage]

@hardy trout And I are both waiting with bated breath for our respective responses from TransitBiker

[pliant karma]

it's 51$ which is not bad actually for a budget hotswap one

[hardy trout]

bro dipped

[pliant karma]

you got your foot into the custom keyboard with it at least lol

[tame mirage]

Lmfao he said hold on I’ve got something for the both of you sneaks out the back way

[pliant karma]

@hardy trout https://a.co/d/4ny0syM

[hardy trout]

thank you preciate it

[polar fern]

👍

[tame mirage]

Lmfao my turn

[polar fern]

Hehe

Curved 27 inch? Hurrm

[tame mirage]

I mean, I could always get another model of the monitor I already have

I use the VQ24VQ

Asus

Could upgrade to the Asus VG27WQ1B

[polar fern]

👀 https://www.cdw.com/product/viewsonic-vx2718-2kpc-mhd-27-omni-curved-1440p-1ms-165hz-gaming-monitor/6416862

1080p model very price friendly https://www.cdw.com/product/viewsonic-vx2718-pc-mhd-27-omni-curved-1080p-1ms-165hz-gaming-monitor/6487331

[tame mirage]

Interesting indeed

Do you see any potential issues with this one? https://www.newegg.com/black-asus-tuf-gaming-vg27wq1b-27/p/N82E16824281084?Item=N82E16824281084&Source=socialshare&cm_mmc=snc-social-_-sr-_-24-281-084-_-10072023

I would like to use 144hz instead though, would that cause any issues since it says it supports it?

[polar fern]

Think the viewsonic panel is a bit better.

But you’d be fine to get the asus.

[tame mirage]

Yeah I read that a large majority of curved panels are all VA

But, even though this one has some slightly tough ghosting, I was able to sort it out with the OSD menu

[polar fern]

Mhm.

Well you got at least 2 1440p options to look at.

[tame mirage]

Will any ghosting be MORE visible because the screen is bigger?

I’m new to monitor technology

[polar fern]

Ghosting probably minimised by proper drivers, cable, etc.

[tame mirage]

Oh? I thought it was an inherit flaw in the panel technology?

[polar fern]

@full fossil tiny bit expensive but it’s uk so prolly fine. 👍

Good cable will ensure signal integrity to minimise issues. No aliexpress $3 cables

[tame mirage]

Sounds like I’ve got a lot of YouTube reviews to watch…

This is fuckin confusing….

[polar fern]

@tame mirage ivanky cable should be fine

If it arrives 😉

I finally have a server rack

[gleaming harbor]

what storage are you gonna put on it

[manic torrent]

How big?

[wicked cape]

18TB (12 usable) in my Xserve, ~3.5TB in my Xserve RAID, 600GB in my PowerEdge 2850

[wicked cape]

12U

It's the Startech open frame one

[wicked cape]

RAID isn't here yet though

[gleaming harbor]

honestly can you install a game on a server and run it if its fast enough

[wicked cape]

You'll be limited by LAN speeds

Unless you have shit CPU(s) in the storage server

then it will be limited by that

How much is a PC

Same here

How much is a low end PC?

There you go

A single one?

Linus did a video on one of them

The water cooled render one

I have spent a total of $300 on my servers

[gleaming harbor]

like bulid your own server like the whonnik

[wicked cape]

Most of that was the Xserve. Shipping often costs more than the server itself

What happened

[half summit]

Yo just a random question

[zinc oracle]

Why did I get kicked from this channel for a few minutes?

[half summit]

Do you guys think I should grind and work the full 40 hours max that's stated in my contract

[quasi totem]

there's a cooldown timer lol jk

[half summit]

Or be lax about it?

I don't know how much I'm going to get paid but the contract in my thing said that I can only work up to 40 hours max

And that's it

[zinc oracle]

Ik, but the channel as a whole disappears from my channel list for a few minutes

[quasi totem]

if you paid your homie $200 for a favor and then he just skipped town wouldn't you be upset?

[half summit]

I'm just saying

[full fossil]

Yes

[half summit]

Alright

Time to abuse the minor consent form

Work the full 40 hours, get the bread

[full fossil]

Rise and grind

[half summit]

And get money for a gaming pc

I'm asking because I got a job at Walmart

And idk if I should fully grind

[manic torrent]

Lol grind walmart

Walmart does not give a fuck. Do what you need to do to get paid.

[half summit]

80 hours considering they pay bi weekly

But I don't care, it's legit money

[manic torrent]

Huh?

That's a normal work week you realise

[half summit]

Idc

They payoff is worth it

[full fossil]

Why not work at Costco?

[half summit]

If I need to sacrifice my mental stability

[wispy marsh]

@manic torrent whats the laziest way to do FOSS network-wide logging and siem?

[half summit]

Walmart is chiller here

[full fossil]

Costco has better benefits

[half summit]

Also Costco is... far far

[full fossil]

Me when costco hotdog:

[half summit]

I mean true

[manic torrent]

.... it's kind of a whole thing. You need to do an analysis of what you have and blah blah blah blah

[half summit]

But they have a bias when it comes to samsclub and Costco

[full fossil]

I went to Costco last month and I can say that if the place is not far away from my place (30+ minute commute), then I would actively shop there.

[half summit]

But yea at minimum I get 800 bi weekly.

[wispy marsh]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-bed-laying-lazy-dzekas-gif-20013760

[half summit]

1200-1280 if I brown nose and play my cards right.

[manic torrent]

Like this is people's whole job to do that

[full fossil]

Me when I need to configure my own software:

[half summit]

[manic torrent]

If you're lucky you might make enough money to survive

[half summit]

British people have Tesco

[full fossil]

And funny enough, out of all places, Taiwan has Costco too.

[wispy marsh]

I just need 2% of that expertise for my home network

[half summit]

I live with supportive parents lol, no worries.

Anyways I only have two goals for my job

[full fossil]

I shop at either Carrefour or PX Mart.

[half summit]

Finally gather enough money for a good budget pc

[full fossil]

[full fossil]

i bulit my 1st pc a few months ago

[half summit]

I haven't built one

Nor experienced a simple Nvidia gpu

[full fossil]

i was using a office pc with a 1650 shoved in it

[half summit]

So you see those little things tou see

[full fossil]

Used to run with Ryzen 3600 and GTX 970

Now down to Macbook Pro

[half summit]

When you right click? Yea I never gotten that experience

[shut lichen]

40 hours is a regular full-time work week? what are you on lol

[full fossil]

Reality.

[half summit]

I have never experienced this

[full fossil]

hahah

[shut lichen]

anything beyond that is overtime

[dusky jacinth]

I did: RIVA TNT

[half summit]

So once I get the money (properly)

I'm gonna build a budget pc

[full fossil]

Im looking for an EmmC driver or an ISO that may include the driver from Windows 8.1. Unfortunetly Windows 8.1 and above do not work well on my Intel Celeron N3060
I dont plan i connecting to network

[full fossil]

how about NOOO how about NO

[full fossil]

why

[half summit]

Yea hold on let me leak the contract a bit

So i want to go deep

[dusky jacinth]

Budget is mostly in AMD's wheelhouse these days, unless you go pretty old on Intel parts.

[full fossil]

seriously, why

[half summit]

I want to go to the maximum number of hours per week

[full fossil]

i dont miss school

[half summit]

That's listed in my contract

[full fossil]

at least not high school

[wispy marsh]

Nyoom

[dusky jacinth]

As for gpus, good luck getting Nvidia's cheap unless you go used and a gen or two older.
AMD and Intel own the budget arena right now... Which is also the same in the used market anyway, soooo... Yeah, there ya go. Lol.

[half summit]

So what do you guys think?

[obsidian sun]

Hi there fellow nerds

[wispy marsh]

No

[half summit]

Is it worth it? Is it worth going the full 40 hours a week to get the good GeForce NVIDIA Experience

[full fossil]

team red

[full fossil]

hello

why the fack does no one wanna help with windows 7 when i clearly state I WONT BE USING INTERNET ON IT

[half summit]

I'm not going to make videos and wait for a shooting star to shoot and give me a miracle where I make 8 quid for a youtube video

[full fossil]

im saying I need emmc drivers for my celeron N3060 because windows 8.1 and above runs terrible

[dusky jacinth]

It's not... For GeForce Experience specifically.

[half summit]

You think I have the patience to wait to get famous for youtube money?

[manic torrent]

lol I have the expertise, doesn't make it not work though 😄

[half summit]

God you're just... ignorant, I'm jealous as how you are so ignorant and so carefree in this world.

[full fossil]

you need 1000 subs, 4000 total watch hours from viewers, and a plethora of more requirments

[dusky jacinth]

It's a constant thing apparently where everyone going from Nvidia to AMD, even to Intel as of recent, and then say they never stop talking about how good their software is, compared to Nvidia's.
Which being I am such, I actually agree with a lot of them.

[full fossil]

work in some shitty factory

[half summit]

It's 15 an hour and again I'm not gonna go and buy brand new shit

[full fossil]

No its not...

[wispy marsh]

Aregghhrheje some people told me to use graylog, elastic and mundo db. The compose keeps failing and I don't know how to fix it

[dusky jacinth]

No it's not, dude.

[full fossil]

no its not bruh

[half summit]

But yea December once I get the money I'll talk to you guys

Ok helping me do a build for a computer

[dusky jacinth]

Also isn't. I know somebody who is a content creator doing vids and he barely tops a hundred.

[full fossil]

stop being a smartass

[dusky jacinth]

No, he does gaming.

[manic torrent]

I think I could easily get a viable youtube channel, but I just don't want to RN, it's hard work.

[half summit]

It's actually hard to make a proper youtibe channel where you make a stable income

[full fossil]

i dont play nothing, i do this stuff called bm (which is fairly popular), not the band btw

[half summit]

Trust me if I became a youtuber

[full fossil]

what is ther budget of your pc ?

[dusky jacinth]

The GTA games and BeamNG.
He also does pc building on a second channel.

[half summit]

I'm predicting in December? 1500 or less

[manic torrent]

oh yeah I wouldn't be doing it for money

[dusky jacinth]

Both in combination do not net him much, if at all.

[half summit]

Look if I was rich

[full fossil]

I own a yt channel you dingus, it took mearly 1.4 years to reach 500 subs

[half summit]

I want to do a youtube channel

Where all I show case is me working a 9-5 job

[manic torrent]

lol, people come along to my staff meeting?

[half summit]

"Vlog 91 - I got a new job"

[manic torrent]

I don't think that would work for me, since I'm working on products that are in development and business strategy and stuff

[full fossil]

its every channel for themself in the midi arts community, no sponsering, just pure content build up

[half summit]

"Vlog 93 - I got fired by my boss because he finds out about my youtube channel and started dropping things in front of me."

[dusky jacinth]

Ma dude, I am someone with less than 200 subs, not even actively making content at all, and yet I have one video with over 200k views alone out of literally everything I've uploaded.
You wanna know how long that video took to get that high?

I mean tbf

YouTube is a dream job/hobby

only if you say it right

[half summit]

haha keyboard part. When I was young we just had keyboards.

[dusky jacinth]

Or stop telling people what to do, knowing you're an ameteur with probably no presence yourself. Lol.

not whatever the other guy was

or just get a normal job????

But as you can see from the price

[dusky jacinth]

I'm mostly a hobby artist/animator and tech nerd if talking seriously.
The video on my channel that blew up over the 12 year span was... Actually a music video in an old movie now lost to time.

I have a job made. Y laziness

[full fossil]

pretty much what im doing
So being in the midi arts community measns you render black-midis, legit run, or both
You can dl midis and use them in videos as audio or visuals, the description requires credit to the owner, its harder to grow these days, and some people are getting bullied for things they made literally years ago
(this is extrememly simplified)

[velvet root]

YEs

[dusky jacinth]

Honestly, that sounds cool.

[manic torrent]

so yeah, as we covered, it's minimum wage job because you have no marketable skills

[half summit]

I wanted one but the price is pushing me back

[full fossil]

unfortunetly getting accepted in the community is much harder

[half summit]

Bey..Hey. I'm working one in a week or two

[dusky jacinth]

I feel that, but anywhere these days.

[full fossil]

my aim for youtube wasnt to get paid, just to do what was popular at the time

[dusky jacinth]

My aim for YT was just do... Something for the hell of it, see what came of it.

[full fossil]

and its still popular, very much, just when i started it was harder to grow

also im still uploading

[half summit]

If I was a kid back in 2010 youtube (I was a little shitling) I would probably make videos where I just do simple hobbies

[full fossil]

im currently editing a timelapse of a windows 11 install on my celeron n3060 (i rarely do stuff like that)

[dusky jacinth]

So far, a little over a hundred subs with a vid over 200k in views that... Wasn't even something I made while everything else sits in the digital dust, mostly unseen by anyone...
Basically, I saw no real motivation to come up with anything on my channel so far and until then, I'm not held by any obligation to do anything about that. Lmao.

[full fossil]

after editing, about 12 mins, im currently adding common music from the midi arts community (e.g 9KX2 and Ouranos)

the biggest mistake by far was Tau 2, it was an un-needed sequel to a midi from 2018 that was overrated enough

btw im not new in the LTT server, i've left and rejoined many times

infact some things ive said date back a bit far

[fierce moth]

Well rip my poor gamecube

i7 13700KF works better than i9 13900KF for some unknown reason
AMD has worse preformance but loads faster
Intel has better preformance but loads slower
Windows 11 preforms better than 10 for some reason
WIndows 8.1 is very popular
Windows 8.1 and above has a winMM issue requiring a patch for optimal preformance, however also required for Kaby Lake and Kaby Lake Refresh systems running Windows 7

Rule 1 in midi arts stuff: no tau edits, else your hated

[dusky jacinth]

Anything on Macs or Amigas in that mix?

[full fossil]

theres no support for mac at all

[rigid vessel]

guys

[full fossil]

linux works but isnt very good

windows is generally recommended

[rigid vessel]

any of you remember a website where you can download like almost every version and delta updates of windows

[full fossil]

i dont care

[dusky jacinth]

And I'm assuming Amiga systems are too archaic for the midi community too, right?

[full fossil]

i have no idea what amiga is

[peak sleet]

yes lol

[full fossil]

So i mean, I guess mac might work under wine like you do in linux, but it wont work at all under M1 macs

the apps used for legit running, and rendering require x64 (besides UMP, UMP being based in java, it will work under x86 with a memory cap)

so no ARM64

or ARM

A company that produced custom workstation-level home computers mostly under the Commodore USA umbrella at the time they were still around, and even were stable mates with Atari at the time Commodore owned them as well.

[full fossil]

yea uh the midi art community was formed in early 2014, more widespread in 2015 though

[dusky jacinth]

Ah.

So quite recent then.

[full fossil]

when synthesia was at top and before the winMM patch was developed ruling out PFA

PFA was basicly just for those who didnt wanna pay for synthesia

made in 2010 (1.1.0)

1.1.0 has an x86 version, however it uses a lower address bus or whatever, limiting it to 2GB

[dusky jacinth]

To be fair, I never knew you guys existed. So this is kind of news to me, as somebody who was getting into dabbling with music production (just to see what I could do with it), but mostly at a high level as in using more mainstream stuff now like Ableton Live, LMMS, and such.

[full fossil]

i can give you some bm examples in dms if you'd like

[dusky jacinth]

With my first introduction to sequencing and such being early Acid Pro before they were bought out by a larger company, which I think was Sony.

[full fossil]

i want to talk a bit more in dms

it would also allow me to give some examples of midis in video form

[dusky jacinth]

Eh, I think I got as far as I can see myself going for this convo, but I appreciate meeting somebody out of that sector of music.
And honestly, I wouldn't mind hearing those examples you mentioned.

[full fossil]

alright leme find a good example and send it in a dm

[full fossil]

sent something

i have like 0 examples cause i cleared my g drive

[neon mesa]

Samsung phones really became way too similwr to each other

Can't tell the difference between A series and S series if there's a case

Back then you can see the front and know what it is

Now every phone is some rectangle with a hole punch camera

[low rain]

My friends got me to buy rust

[polar fern]

Whew. Summer sure ended quite quickly this year.

[full fossil]

yeah it really cold here tonight also

im ok with it

[polar fern]

Yeah it’s fine, unfortunately it’s still 75% humidity which is pretty unusual for October

This entire summer overnight has been 99% humidity basically every single night

It’s really unusual for this region

[full fossil]

it seemed like a normal summer here

[polar fern]

Yeah, normally, we have a mix of cooler dryer nights and warmer more humid nights, but it has been 90% + humidity no matter what the temperature has been

[pliant karma]

lol wish I could say the same it's gonna be like this till nov at least but some weeks will be cooler so ehh

[polar fern]

Since about the first week of May, it has been like this.

Yeah, I like living where I do I like having four seasons and the leaves changing and stuff.

[fierce moth]

It's 22c atm

[full fossil]

12c here

[fierce moth]

Pretty good weather for spring

[full fossil]

Australia ?

[fierce moth]

Ofc

[full fossil]

"spring" was the dead giveaway lol

[polar fern]

The weather in the past three years has been completely uncharacteristic of the last 40. We’ve had absolutely drenching soaking multi day rainstorms that have caused flooding. We’ve had more tornadoes in the last three years than in the last 25 and they’ve actually caused damage which is super unheard of in this area.

Like, yeah, we do get the occasional tornado every few years but we’ve had several each year and they’ve caused damage which is a new thing

[fierce moth]

Weather's been mental lately

[full fossil]

forest fires are bad in my country now

that's new

[fierce moth]

Wouldn't be surprised if I got 50c weather during December

[full fossil]

im happy at 15c

[polar fern]

Yeah a few months ago, the air quality was so bad here we had to close the house down to 2 rooms with air purifiers on full blast in both rooms. The cats were in there, too, with their food and their litter box.

The sky was literally brown and orange

[wispy marsh]

Android is not for me. Change my mind.

[fierce moth]

Sounds like some shit from fallout lol

[fierce moth]

😭

[full fossil]

i have a iPhonne to keep my gf happy lol

[fierce moth]

Man's has an addiction

[polar fern]

@fierce moth yeah actually

[fierce moth]

Bro, if you need a specific phone to keep someone happy you shouldn't bother with them

[wispy marsh]

This is all the Apple stuff that the family uses. I just keep all the boxes.

[fierce moth]

That's an immature train of thought

[full fossil]

its not a huge issue

[polar fern]

I have respiratory PPE because of the pandemic and I had to use it just to go out in the other part of the house where we weren’t using air purifiers. It was really bad. It was so traumatising I can still taste the air from that few days

[fierce moth]

I still have some of my boxes for some tech I have

[rare hamlet]

Same I just got the new iPhone as well lol

[fierce moth]

Specificly my g502 lightspeed

[lilac bear]

Pixel 8 has temperature sensor!!!

[wispy marsh]

I keep all the boxes unless the warranty has expired in which case I cut out the warranty sticker/section and throw the rest of the garbage away

[fierce moth]

I just find the box to look cool

[wispy marsh]

Unless it's an Apple product

Which I keep the entire box until I sell it

[fierce moth]

Kinda the same reason why I still have my game cases

But that's a different story

[neon mesa]

Someone this deep can't be saved, so no I won't change your mind.

Personally, outside of the M macbooks they're meh

[full fossil]

they sip power

[polar fern]

Took me a minute to find it, but this was back in June when we had the wildfire smoke drifting down from Quebec. About 3 o’clock in the afternoon. There aren’t any actual clouds in the sky it’s just smoke.

[full fossil]

yeah it was nuts

[polar fern]

The smoke was so bad that you could see denser parts of it wafting across the sky

I think the air quality went up to about 242 that day

Healthy air quality is below 28

[full fossil]

we are in for a good time

[peak sleet]

Hi, so basically, I was playing some DCS a quite demanding game with an Xbox controller connected, and all of a sudden, it disconnected and Bluetooth was gone there is no more adapter or way to turn Bluetooth on. Bluetooth has always worked until now. Its also completely gone from device manager.

[polar fern]

@full fossil I live about an hour from the Atlantic ocean. should be fun.

[full fossil]

lucky

im about 12hrs away

[polar fern]

I don’t know some of the weather we get up through here occasionally, can be pretty violent

Back in 1993, we got approximately 3 feet of snow which is a record for this area that has not been broken since

[full fossil]

winter was not that bad

not muich snow, if i recall

[polar fern]

And now, with the tornadoes, and basically no snow at all, we could end up getting tornadoes in the winter time

[full fossil]

chill in the basement

[polar fern]

We are close enough to the ocean for it to have an effect on the weather

Many of the houses here actually don’t have basements it’s very scattered

My place has a basement, but my girlfriends place does not, and my two housemates have frontline facing jobs where they could bring Covid back with them, so I don’t stay there much

I do occasionally stop by hang out and stuff, but I’m usually at my girlfriend’s place

[full fossil]

i live on the top fllor

floor

[past egret]

the sea floor?!

[polar fern]

My space in that building is on the ground floor. However, there are too many shared communal areas and the HVAC is all central so there is literally no way to isolate at all.

[full fossil]

im lucky , i live alone

[polar fern]

Well, technically I live alone. Also each of my housemates has a different section of the building, but we share a kitchen and laundry and stuff.

[full fossil]

i dont share anything lol

[polar fern]

At my girlfriends place if we need to isolate, we can actually do that safely and effectively because of the way her house is built

[full fossil]

thats good

[polar fern]

And her HVAC system has some super high-end air filtration thingy

[full fossil]

perfect

[weary vale]

anyone learn me english

also i need learn scripting c++/pyton

[polar fern]

It’s been a little bit rough isolating here away from most of my stuff, but I do have a little corner where I have my computers and before her kids went back to in person school it was kind of nice having them here and having lunch and breakfast with them.

[full fossil]

yeah, sometimes i do with i had a roomate

wish*

im alone too often

[polar fern]

I am used to being on my own. Even when I was still living with my parents, I had my own space in the house away from everyone else, so it’s not that much of a difference.

[full fossil]

its been years , im kinda over it to a degree

[polar fern]

The cool part about when I was living with my parents is that yeah we did get sick occasionally obviously, but it was set up in a way where if I got sick I did not get the rest of them sick which I always tried to do because I was always hanging out with people and going places almost every night after I graduated high school and I am sure I would have brought something back if I hadn’t had my own space

My parents were basically 90 hours a week type workers and I didn’t wanna mess that up for them

[full fossil]

my parents did not want any guests

[polar fern]

That’s weird

[full fossil]

we lived in a pretty small house

[polar fern]

I had people staying over on the sofa in my part of the house all the time

[full fossil]

yeah

that would never happen at my place

[polar fern]

Well, I had my own door in and out of the house and my own door into the garage and my own door into the area with like the utilities and laundry and stuff and my own bathroom, so it really didn’t matter.

As long as I kept my part of the house, clean and stuff, and I wasn’t doing anything dangerous or sketchy they didn’t really mind any shenanigans I was up to

[full fossil]

yeah

i wish lol

[polar fern]

I think it’s important for children to have some degree of independence, especially if that’s the type of person that they are

[full fossil]

we did not have big house to have stuff like that
