ROFL

Idk anyway it was terrible

There is this anthro group here and they were taking photos of themselves down town and posting it on reddit local forum. The mods banned them lol

[dreamy rose]

hatred has always been so strong

people just don't realise how normal their lives actually are. i've met and talked to one thats actually Ex Navy and is a cop now.

[sudden bough]

Idk most people think it’s weird and don’t want to deal with it

[graceful burrow]

tech server btw

[sudden bough]

lol

[dreamy rose]

general chat btw

[graceful burrow]

public chat btw

if you're gonna get pedantic at least be right

#off-topic would have been a more appropriate channel

they chose their bed, and laid in it

[dreamy rose]

people will view anything as weird.

[sudden bough]

Yeah but some things go beyond the normal weird

[dreamy rose]

everyone treats it as general. its General. doesn't matter what the name is.

[graceful burrow]

it does
the channel topic is there for a reason
stray too far, incur wrath

[dreamy rose]

cant ban everyone can you?

[graceful burrow]

i bet the bot has a command that allows multiple users or roles to be banned

[dreamy rose]

cause that makes sense ban everyone with the Regular role.

[graceful burrow]

good

[dreamy rose]

or even better the Floatplane pilot role

[sudden shale]

Y'all the pc under desk type or pc on desk type

[graceful burrow]

[dreamy rose]

PC under Monitor

[sudden shale]

How can I acquire blue

[dreamy rose]

pay for floatplane

[sudden shale]

Gigachad setup

[dreamy rose]

[graceful burrow]

pay five dollars to floatplane and link your floatplane account to discord

[dreamy rose]

i just daily drive an IBM 5150.

[sudden shale]

PC on monitor

[sudden bough]

Yes

Monitor in PC

I’ve seen that actually

[graceful burrow]

yeah they're called all-in-one pc's and they're invariably bad

[sudden bough]

No I mean someone put a monitor in a case

Like one full side

[sudden shale]

I would like to stuff my PC with yellow stress balls

Yellow smiley face stress balls

[graceful burrow]

snowblind

[sudden bough]

That would be bad

[sudden bough]

Eh?

[sudden shale]

See how much I can fit while still working

[sudden bough]

Fire hazard

Oh no

There is a space lab going in down the street north of the airport I live next to. Yeah I’m moving. This entire area is screwed for the next foreseeable future

“Starlab”

[sudden bough]

Oh Starlab

[dreamy rose]

Luggables. a dead bread\

[sudden bough]

It’s a space science park

[graceful burrow]

how is that a bad thing lmao

space is rad

[dreamy rose]

these thing are sick

[sudden bough]

The area is horribly congested and the apartments are over priced

[graceful burrow]

your pic?

[dreamy rose]

[sudden bough]

I mean someone took a tower desktop computer and put a monitor in it

Like full size

[dreamy rose]

yeah. thats what the Compaq portable is

[sudden bough]

Ok but I mean recently

[dreamy rose]

[graceful burrow]

i already told you of one
snowblind

[sudden bough]

Oh yeah that didn’t make sense

[graceful burrow]

i wouldnt have replied with it if it wasnt relevant

[sudden bough]

Still lack of context this is discord people just blurt out random stuff some

[graceful burrow]

the context was that i replied to it lol

[sudden bough]

Well I didn’t get it

[graceful burrow]

that's apparent

[wispy marsh]

Hello ltt

Yall still arguing, I see

[sudden bough]

Typical discord

Discord : Lack of agreement among persons, groups, or things. synonym: conflict.

[dreamy rose]

they absolutely do. i'm guilty of rambling about annoying Victorian issues to other Anthropromorphic victorian animal people.

[green snow]

Is Assassin's creed 3 and black flag connected?

[graceful burrow]

they're all connected

[green snow]

I wanted to skip buying AC 3 as it's rating is low

[graceful burrow]

so do it

[green snow]

But you said they're connected 🥲

[graceful burrow]

they're all connected with an overarching story but no game is a pre-requisite for eachother

[dreamy rose]

buy all the games on the steam store and be the that one guy with a library of like 70,000 games

[stark willow]

i dont see the screenshots channel along with its whole category, does that mean i have been blocked from viewing it?

[graceful burrow]

there is no screenshots channel

[stark willow]

oh, so its just deleted?

[green snow]

I've like 130 games on steam, I only buy the ones I really like to have

[graceful burrow]

it does not exist

[stark willow]

well it used to

[dreamy rose]

she's talking about the Tech chat

[graceful burrow]

i never disputed that

[manic torrent]

the cia made us delete it

[graceful burrow]

it definitely might have existed

[stark willow]

if you are referring to me, id be happy if you didn't use "he" :)

[stark willow]

ah lol

[graceful burrow]

they did reshuffle some channels the other day, probably deleted a few

[stark willow]

well i called someone an idiot in a rush of emotions one day there, thought i got softmuted for that

[green snow]

Nothing in this materialistic world is permanent.

[manic torrent]

lol if that was the case it would be silent

[green snow]

Who was at wrong there ?

[dreamy rose]

nothing is permanent. ever

[graceful burrow]

entropy is a permanent force

it's the only thing that is permanent

[manic torrent]

nothing is ever permanent, lol

[pulsar violet]

yea it did exist they archieved it, u can sends ss now if u have a nitro boost, floatplane, or twitch sub i think

in here

[green snow]

No it's not, it's changing every seconds past

[manic torrent]

you can end pics in any other channel

[green snow]

oh ok my b

[stark willow]

me by calling him an idiot and the guy that i called an idiot who assumed i ran minecraft bedrock when i sent a java screenshot (by this point everyone thinks when i send a screenshot from java on my phone is just modded bedrock 😭)

[pulsar violet]

float bread

[manic torrent]

so meta, even this acronym.

[green snow]

Quite a confusion, I see

[stark willow]

yeah

[dreamy rose]

are people seriosuly arguing about java and bedrock still?

[stark willow]

especially when i reach 5313 fps on my mobile phone on java

[stark willow]

more of confusing pojav launcher and bedrock

[manic torrent]

... dude you argue about dumber shit all the time

[stark willow]

true

[dreamy rose]

people KNOW bedcrock is shit.

[graceful burrow]

actually true

[dreamy rose]

arguing what is and isn't a platform isn't dumb.

[stark willow]

pojav launcher is just another mcjava launcher, but with a few tweaks for it to allow running mcjava natively on arm64 android

[limpid oyster]

Best 1440p 27inch 165hz IPS Freesync monitor?

[manic torrent]

[graceful burrow]

no

[dreamy rose]

this is discord not google. check your tabs next time man

[limpid oyster]

Im asking humans for opinions not google

If i sent it in the wrong channel tell me

[dreamy rose]

google is run by humans

[stark willow]

use chatgpt 🧌

[limpid oyster]

Google doesnt give live feedback

Dont have to be an asshole

[manic torrent]

it is not an ashole though

[dreamy rose]

reviews give good feedback. go read those

[manic torrent]

it won't judge you for your absolute laziness and lackof understanding what "best" means

it will also automatically give you results tailored to your region ad currency.

[dreamy rose]

am not. just pointing you in the right direction

[vagrant sluice]

Is Tutanota a good email service?

[graceful burrow]

never heard of it

[vagrant sluice]

It's based out of Germany

[dreamy rose]

used it to switch my gmail on my steam account. was fine

[tiny mica]

Using it does not mean eat the bottle lol

[vagrant sluice]

Do you still use it?

[tiny mica]

And there is no metal taste to the drink, you have to wash it 3 times before using it, that's why

5600g is an odd choice, but it will do fine with the 1080

[carmine stirrup]

Wow! That's a lot of hard drives

I'm curious why you're using sata 2.5s and not m.2 nvmes

[digital prairie]

Probably just bringing them up when he upgrades the rest of the computer

[carmine stirrup]

With the right board, you could skip needing the pcie sata card, too

[carmine stirrup]

Ahhh... I was thinking they were new purchases. That makes sense.

In related news, I need coffee, lol

[digital prairie]

Depending on the age of those drives, grabbing an 8TB hard drive on sale (~100usd) and backing up the majority of the other drives could result in a lot of data saved in the event of a drive failure.

Other than that, no real comments. Why do you have 32GB of ram? Is it because it's cheap or you're just a tab junkie not unlike myself.

[carmine stirrup]

Welcome to tab junkies anonymous

[shut lichen]

that storage is clearly a collection of buying drives over the past few years lol

[digital prairie]

One of the reasons I upgraded from 32 to 64GB of ram was because every once in a while an open facebook tab would get a memory leak and I didn't feel like having my PC slow down.

[shut lichen]

solution: don't use facebook

[digital prairie]

but marketplace scores me sick deals

I just got a lg 32gk650f for 150usd

great secondary monitor

also used gpus are sick

[fresh vector]

Very sick

[carmine stirrup]

I run 64 and plan on going to 128 because I often have 100 tabs open plus Photoshop and Premiere

And way too many of those tabs are Facebook, lol

[sudden shale]

Idk if internet cafes still exist but if they still do I might just ask to go to work there any day I want and any hour and ask to get paid per session, depends on how well I did and how long I worked

My friend keeps telling me this monitor Asus ROG Strix XG27UQR 27.0" 3840 x 2160 144 Hz is a "autistic" purchase. Is this true? Cause he keeps telling me to get OLED but I don't want to cause I hate the idea of burnin. Any thoughts? Let me know

[fossil frost]

burn-in is a thing, but rare, and as long as it isnt a shit OLED, its not a thing at all (they self correct). and your friend sounds like an arsehole... so. 1. its your money, buy what you want. 2. dont be friends with that person any more

[full fossil]

Appreciate the advice my guyy

[chrome vector]

"How many chips you want, man?"

"Yes "

[fossil frost]

my brother has been txting me, complaining that he has just upgraded his internet to 1gbit, but hes still stuck at around 90mbit and its not working. done a topology map of his network, and... noticed hes got a 10/100 switch plugged straight into his router, and everything is plugged into that switch... just told him to come to mine and pick up the spare 10/100/1000 switch i dont use anymore and swap it over... hes just done that, and now hes pulling 970+mbit over a single connection 😄

dont know how long hes had that switch, but cant remember the last time i had a 10/100 switch

[carmine stirrup]

If you set a short screen timeout, you should be A OK with OLED

[carmine stirrup]

That's so beautiful ❤️

[sudden bough]

i'll take the party sized bag please

[fossil frost]

thats just what computers looked like then

[carmine stirrup]

back before SIMM memory chips

[fossil frost]

tbh, they looked worse than that before they started to look better

[carmine stirrup]

though 386s had simm chips... I wonder why that board doesn't

[jade lantern]

🍞🥪

[fossil frost]

transition period of many years

[chrome vector]

I just really like how old MOBO's look. So many chips. Everything on a different chip.

[carmine stirrup]

We're so spoiled with how modular everything is these days

[fossil frost]

and all DIP chips too, that are socketed

[carmine stirrup]

yuppers 😄

[wispy marsh]

Modular southbridge

[fossil frost]

ahh wait, that particular board was all throughole soldered, boooo... that must be when they JUST started doing that

ha, just noticed the oscillator is ziptied on 😄

also, that 33mhz i386 is as old as i am 😄

[chrome vector]

If only we could have VRAM on DIP chips, or something similar. Nvidia won't even allow their graphic card partners add extra soldered VRAM anymore.

[carmine stirrup]

the bastards

[fossil frost]

those partners do leave the traces and pads there though, so, if it was possible for the average person to get hold of the gddr chips, its possible to solder the extra on yourself, but good luck with that 😄

[chrome vector]

Yeah I heard some people were successful with that. It would be cool to try it sometime, even if with just an old card as practice. I absolutely do not need it and could not fit it on my card now, but maybe someday.

[summer nova]

It is possible for the average person lmao just takes a while to find them

[fossil frost]

by average person, i mean the average person who has spent years learning how to do SMD soldering

[chrome vector]

I work in SMT so I know how hard some of those components are to place by hand. I want to get better at hand soldering, though.

These chips at my work are really amall and have 48 tiny pads on the back. Idk how you would even approach hand soldering a chip like this.

Graveyard.

[polar fern]

Hum.

[chrome vector]

Idk why photos I send keep doing that lately

Maybe it has something to do with changing my camera settings to 108mp?

it's getting annoying

[carmine stirrup]

they are kinda big

but not really that big

[chrome vector]

Yeah, idk. It seems like it's only photos taken from my camera lately though. I'm going to test it real quick. I'm just going to take two photos of the same thing with different setting and send them here real quick.

[polar fern]

It’s the metadata messing with the imbed routine

Bbl.

[chrome vector]

Test

[white pawn]

your "friend" sounds like a jackass. ditch the negativity of their presence and buy whatever monitor you want

[chrome vector]

But like, h'wy though? Yay. I'm going to try and figure this out later. I guess I am not using my 108mp camera right now, because clearly it ain't working on Discord. Yay.

[tough siren]

when was the last time yll checked /g/

[tough siren]

your friend is right better have gone with lg or oled

[molten drift]

I wish their was a magic the gathering themed PC case.

[fossil frost]

Taobao custom acrylic cases

[molten drift]

Is taobao a brand?

Or something else?

[fossil frost]

the photos on my NAS are usually at least that, when im taking photos of plain colours... 😄

[wispy marsh]

Shopping platform like amazon, lazada, alibaba

[wispy marsh]

No, don't

Discord has to serve that to everyone using cdn bandwidth

That's expensive

[fossil frost]

my DSLR shoots everything raw, so, 20mb+ images for most images, IF i was to share any, that would then get dropped down to 1-2mb

[molten drift]

I couldn't navigate the site even with Google translator

[wispy marsh]

Yep, it's mandarin alright

But yeah, custom odms in china making you aluminium/steel/acrylic pieces

[wispy marsh]

No, don't

I don't know how but I just got the strongest desire to play a game from when I was in 6th grade... Is the online browser game RuneScape still a thing?

[graceful burrow]

Ye but it's not in browser because Java applet support was disabled
RuneLite is the new client

[pearl locust]

Also one more thing, ever since my GPU's plastic was burned there have been some little black screens on google and opera gx that appear out of nowhere

but apparently they might be related to 3060 RTX problems?

[molten drift]

I imagine it has minimal spec requirements aldonist?

[idle nymph]

your gpu is fucked

or might be

[pearl locust]

Have you seen the pic tho?

It's just small burn on the back of the plastic

PSA for anyone here unfortunate enough to use a Razer headset

They just dropped an update for their companion app

Updating will nuke your EQ settings

Back them up or so help you god you'll find out the hard way like I did

[vapid cypress]

Avg razer peripheral experience

[autumn ember]

Genuinely

Man i hate this company

[graceful burrow]

Ever gonna buy razer again?

[vapid cypress]

Buy more

Support bad companies

[autumn ember]

Not if i can help it

The headset itself is okay but the build quality is bad and the software quality is worse

[long briar]

use eqapo

[elfin jetty]

Just bought myself an upgrade

[autumn ember]

I've tried but their software really hates third party audio apps and also the hassle of another app to fiddle with ain't worth it

Actually they remade their drivers maybe i can finally use voicemeeter

[autumn ember]

oooh shiny

[vapid cypress]

L

[elfin jetty]

Very, upgrading from a 3600 on the same motherboard

[elfin jetty]

Bruh

[graceful burrow]

That's always what I hear
Build quality and software

[autumn ember]

oh no my fellow 3600'er :(

[elfin jetty]

Yea, im putting my old cpu into a new build for my friend since their pc is pretty out of date

[molten drift]

Enjoy!

[woeful topaz]

i regret buying the ryzen 7 5800x instead of the 9 i paid full price when they came out

the 9 is like $300 less than i paid for the 7 right now

[fresh vector]

You can't compare that.

[woeful topaz]

well yea but at thw time it was $100 more to get the 9

i shoudlve just gotten the 9

saved and gotten the 9 wouldve made more sense

[fresh vector]

That's like saying I regret buying 2080ti for 1200? And now you can get it for 250 rn in the second hand market.

You mean 5900x?

[woeful topaz]

yep

[fresh vector]

Why u need the extra 4 cores?

[woeful topaz]

well i dont necessarily need them but my gpu is being decently bottlenecked by the 7, cpu often goes to 100% or close to 100% usage

while gpu is at like 40 or 50

[fresh vector]

So if u brought the 5900x or 5950x, exact same thing will happen

[pliant karma]

Hehe congrats. Tempted on the 5950x but ehh 5900x just chilling

[fresh vector]

They are all very similar in gaming performance

[woeful topaz]

not just in games tho

[pliant karma]

Also 5800x in my spare system

[woeful topaz]

in general

[fresh vector]

Like rendering?

[woeful topaz]

yea

[fresh vector]

That's fair.

[woeful topaz]

i went slightly overkill on my gpu than i wanted to because the 3080ti was the only one in stock

and so my cpu lags behind a little

[fresh vector]

Cause gaming I think stock 5800x is equal or slightly faster than 5900x and 5950x

[elfin jetty]

Ah i mostly game and have some other stuff running as well in the background, in CP2077 my 3600 just couldnt keep up with my 3080ti

[fresh vector]

3600 oof

[woeful topaz]

i think ill just keep the 7 5800x and maybe get a new mobo in a few years or so and upgrade to the 7000 series

[fresh vector]

But 5800x should pair 3080ti fine.

[elfin jetty]

Whats wrong with a 3600?

[fresh vector]

Slow

[elfin jetty]

Slow? Bruh

That thing is still a beast

[woeful topaz]

gaming its usually fine

[elfin jetty]

I just have a gpu that can take advantage of more cpu horsepower now

[fresh vector]

3600?

[woeful topaz]

depends, my friend has a 3600 and a 4070 and it is not a beast

i keep telling them to upgrade it

[fresh vector]

Nah 3600is not a beast. That's 8700k

[elfin jetty]

I mean its worked more than fine for me for the past few years

[woeful topaz]

its a fine cpu but its not a beast by any means

[fresh vector]

None of the zen2 cpu are beast in gaming. Even when it launched.

[woeful topaz]

they arent bad tho

especially for the price

[elfin jetty]

It was a beast compared to the i5 2500 that i was running before that

[fresh vector]

Like 8700k is the real beast.

[woeful topaz]

today i would say just get a ryzen 5 5600x instead of a 5 3600 because its like $30 more

[elfin jetty]

My friend has an 8700k, it barely performs better than my 3600

[graceful burrow]

I would not get a 5600x
Id you're buying a 5600 get the non x

They perform literally the same

[fresh vector]

8700k delid at 5 ghz with tuned Samsung bdie is still relevant today.

[elfin jetty]

Yes but my friend doesnt have all that, im talking stock

[fresh vector]

It's almost as fast as maxed out 5600 and 5600x at 3600-3800 tuned bdie

[woeful topaz]

i wanna get a ryzen 9 7900x in a couple years with a new mobo would be killer but not yet too expensive right now lol

[fresh vector]

Oh. Well why buy a k then?

[elfin jetty]

Because it was in a custom prebuilt that they bought before we even met, and had we met before they bought it i would have told them not to

[fresh vector]

Ah.

Well that's bummer.

[elfin jetty]

Yea, the pc was 4k for a 8700k and a gtx 1070. I told them just how hard they got screwed as soon as i found that out

[fresh vector]

But 8700k I think is one of greatest and iconic gaming cpu in history. I think 2600k? and 5800X 3D are up there too.

[fresh vector]

😭

hey guys. want second opinion. while playing black desert online with remastered graphics the game itself is not lagging and i got stable 120-144fps. but if i try launch any app like browser or discord they are laggy af while game is smooth.

is it safe to asume it is because of memory bottleneck? i got only 16gb ram while cpu and gpu are 5800x3d rx6700xt

when i check ram usage its aroung 12gb.

[elfin jetty]

@fresh vector now i just need to update the bios of my b450 tomahawk max to support it

[white pawn]

good god, i paid 1100 for that same combo(16gb ram and a 1tb nvme) in 2018 😛

well, 1070ti

[elfin jetty]

Yeaaa im gonna make sure they dont ever buy something like that again

[white pawn]

in 2018 tho that was a steal, the damn video card was goin for 1700 by itself 😛

[elfin jetty]

Holy hell, for a 1070ti?

Is that USD?

[white pawn]

yeah, was the height of the crypto craze, you couldnt touch any decent video card for anything resembling a sane price

[spice pine]

god, yeah, 2016-2018 prices were... unholy

[white pawn]

yup, it's literally the only reason i rocked a prebuilt for a few years, cause Dell had a sale on a system that was an upgrade to my current one for cheaper than the video card inside it would have been alone 🙂

and it reaffirmed my intention to never own a prebuilt again if i can do it

[fresh vector]

I think pc building is very cheap rn. If u are near Microcenter or in a decently sized city

[white pawn]

yeah, i built mine out last year and it was pretty decent, other than the video card

[fresh vector]

I built 12 pc for my friend last year, and only one this year.

This year the price all fallen very hard

[white pawn]

luckily i already had a 3060 12gb so i didnt need to more than double the price of the rest of my pc buying a video card 😛

[fresh vector]

Even gpu on second hand market

[elfin jetty]

Shit i bought my 3080ti "used" for 500usd

It came in box basically brand new

[white pawn]

the 4 series is just stupidly expensive, and nvidia is being such dicks with limiting supplies to keep prices up i'm honestly just waiting for intel to release their second gen card

[elfin jetty]

40 series is a shit show

[white pawn]

i just can't make myself buy used hardware, after seeing some of the scams people i know have ended up with

[fresh vector]

Oof.

[elfin jetty]

And ive also made a vow to never buy GPUs new again since i paid more for my new 3060ti a few years ago than that used 3080ti

[fresh vector]

Yeah I always public meet up

[white pawn]

especially with the prevalence of overclocking everything nowadays, since ya never know if the person selling the hardware was an idiot and only nearly killed it before selling it

[fresh vector]

As an overclocker, what?

[elfin jetty]

Thing is i found a reputable seller on ebay with a few thousand sales and all fairly positive reviews, and after i got my card i could tell why

[white pawn]

nahh, im talkin spoofed hardware ids and repackaged boards that were watercooled that had waterstains on em when we went to see why they weren't working well, stuff like that

[fresh vector]

Oh OK.

[eternal hearth]

just follow them home and personally get your money back if they scammed you

[fresh vector]

Like I just built my friend a 600 dollar cpu. I think it can do cyberpunk fine. I did get lucky tho.

[white pawn]

or the card that my brother got that had obviously been overclocked at some point and run into the ground, it died a couple weeks after he got it, and we looked and there were scorch marks on the pcb under the heatsinks. actual scorch marks

[elfin jetty]

Sorry what?

[fresh vector]

Yeah

[white pawn]

only works if you notice you got scammed at the time of sale

[elfin jetty]

You built a cpu???

[fresh vector]

Oh Oops pc

[elfin jetty]

Lmao

[white pawn]

eh, for 8 bit it's not actually that hard 🙂

[elfin jetty]

I was gonna ask if ya worked at intel or amd lmao

[white pawn]

some dude did it in minecraft, remember? 🙂

[elfin jetty]

Fair, but for 600 dollars id be pissed if thats all i got for it lol

[white pawn]

dunno, for 600 bucks i could probably put together a 16 bit processor and make it look REALLY cool, but if the 8 bit i made was any indication, it would take a long time to manage the wires 😛

[fresh vector]

Out of the 13 builds I did. I think the only build I did this year is the best price/performance.

I still have part picking skills, even tho I changed hobby haha

[white pawn]

i genuinely haven't tried to go under 1500 for a computer in a long time. i have been taking advantage of not being broke like i was when i was younger

[fresh vector]

1500 is fair for a pc

My personal pc is like 3k

[white pawn]

altho as time has gone, more and more of that 1500 seems to go for video cards 😛

my recent build is a 17-13700k system, i think i did pretty good, since basically for what i need i can probably get at least two video card upgrades outta it

[fresh vector]

Nice

[white pawn]

only thing that makes me sad is that air cooling isn't quite good enough for it under load, cause im old school enough i hate watercooling

[fresh vector]

You can undervolt.

[white pawn]

yeah, i've thought about it, i just suck at it with new processors 😛

but also, i don;t actually play anything that requires ultimate performance outta the processor, and im using 1080 gaming monitors, since 4k vs 1080 on a 27 inch monitor isn't noticeable to me at least

the current state of gaming has actually driven me to finish a bunch of old games from the 80s and 90s 😛

[fresh vector]

Lower resolution with higher refresh rate requires more cpu power.

[white pawn]

and i think my current system is just maybe slightly overkill for things like King's Quest 5 😛

they are 60hz monitors 🙂

[fresh vector]

💀

[white pawn]

i don't need super high framerates, just need it to be smooth

hell, one game i played for years was designed to run like butter at 30fps, and it really wasn't bad til ya got down into the low 20s. of course, not all games are built the same

[past crow]

Bro at the best buy I work at we have a guy that looks like dollar store Linus who wears an ltt hoodie almost every day and a guy that looks like discount Plouffe

Mom can we have linus and plouffe from ltt?
mom: "no, we have linus and plouffe at home"

[white pawn]

i have two linuses 🙂

stupid jpg to png converter takes forever

[sudden bough]

Eh?

[white pawn]

it'll make sense in like, 10 minutes when this thing finishes 😛

[sudden bough]

Who is Plouffe?

[white pawn]

one of the LMG folks, a writer?(don;t quote me on that)

[cedar fog]

hey all, i'm new here. if i'm looking for buying advice can i put it in here or is there a better channel for that

[sudden bough]

Buying what

[cedar fog]

laptop

[sudden bough]

Oic. What are you using it for?

[white pawn]

what are ya doin on the laptop?

^^^jinx!

[sudden bough]

KeK

[cedar fog]

mix of casual use, engineering student (presentations, MATLAB, solidworks), and gaming. i've mostly narrowed it down to the legion slim 7i, trying to decide whether to drop an additional 275 for the upgrade from 4060 to 4070

[sudden bough]

What games?

[cedar fog]

4060 is 1350, 4070 is 1620, so actually closer to 270 difference total

[sudden bough]

:c

[cedar fog]

i'm generally pretty diverse, but i'd like the power to play AAA stuff

[sudden bough]

Then maybe the 4070 but be prepared to be plugged in most of that time

If it’s only like $300 different

Then why not?

[cedar fog]

yeah i've been trying to find info on how the gpu difference might affect power draw during casual activity

[white pawn]

ok, so if i was buying this, i would pay the extra for the 4070, but also would switch the screen to 1080 to reduce the heat, cause with a 13th gen processor and 4070, there will be HEAT! 🙂

[sudden bough]

Either way you will have to be plugged into to play games

[cedar fog]

bc if its the difference from like 7-8 hrs to 5-6 of note taking and browsing then that's not worth

[sudden bough]

It won’t use that much power for notes

[cedar fog]

actually no 1080p option i don't think

[white pawn]

nahh, i just mean set the resolution to 1080.

[cedar fog]

16:10 2560x1600 is min spec

ohhhhh

[sudden bough]

I don’t think there is that much difference in 4060-4070

[white pawn]

yeah, and with a 99.99 Whr battery, you won't get a whole lotta time running it even casually i wouldn't think. seems like it would need to be plugged in most of the time

[cedar fog]

most battery tests i've seen online estimate about 7-8 hrs of browsing and streamign

which is right in my ballpark. plus i'm never too far away from an outlet

[sudden bough]

That should be fine then

DO IT!!!

[cedar fog]

if i'm gaming, odds are i'm at my desk anyway

[sudden bough]

😐

[white pawn]

in that case do it! or buy a cheaper one and get a gaming desktop 🙂

[sudden bough]

Alternative. Get a small tablet for notes and buy a tower computer

Unless you do solid works on class

[cedar fog]

nah i also have a cheap ipad for notes and handouts, but i def need a laptop to take to class for MATLAB and solidworks

[white pawn]

yeah, microsoft surface or something

[sudden bough]

Ok yes

[cedar fog]

tower computer is coming after graduation

[sudden bough]

Then laptop

[sudden bough]

Get the next version of the compensator

[white pawn]

LOL

[cedar fog]

i'll let y'all know if i inherit a trust fund

[sudden bough]

KeK

You can almost buy a run down house for that price

[cedar fog]

or a mid range car

[sudden bough]

Yeah

Mines $20k used. $6k left!

[cedar fog]

just found a coupon that dropped it down to 1537 lmao

[ionic abyss]

I'll be able to judge the rosewill k50 today

[white pawn]

where you at? or are you saying its that price after tax and such

[cedar fog]

wdym?

[elfin jetty]

Well there's your problem

You inhaled your house

[prime solstice]

Dang Kirby did that last week to me

[elfin jetty]

No?

Yes?

[white pawn]

maybe!

in a very aggressive tone even!

[long briar]

uhm... huh?

wdym third party audio app

it runs on top of window's audio driver

[white pawn]

not from razer or windows if i was gonna hazard a gues

[autumn ember]

yep

I presume it was their now old surround audio driver just did not play nice with anything that wasn't windows or razer software

[white pawn]

oh hell, someone tell my wife, i was right! 🙂

[autumn ember]

Lmao

[vapid cypress]

Man these sales are crazy

[elfin jetty]

Sounds about right for EA

[whole basalt]

Thats too cheap for an EA Game

[strange star]

i get this error everytime i try to install my amd drivers "amd software completed successfully but windows deteected potential issue with your graphics device error 207"

[sudden bough]

[surreal spoke]

Can anyone help with my issue in tech support? I’ve been stumped on it for 3 days now and exhausted all suggestions from other people that have been able to help

[tiny rover]

I'm sorry to hear that, but I have no experience myself and I'm also facing a tech issue right now

[still yacht]

[silent jolt]

I bricked my rx 580 so doubt it xD

[still yacht]

Turkish style solution is to format

negan confirmed this

[silent jolt]

Its all right i will reinstall Windows tommorow when new gpu arrives

[drowsy patio]

how?

[silent jolt]

Vbios update overclocked it without me realising and it well made a puff and its done

[still yacht]

ohhh I think its works because reinstalling windows always fixed problems. In past, i lived a lot of problems in Windows. When i don't want to update, windows was doing force update. Now, i sold windows laptop then i bought macbook.

sorry my bad english

[silent jolt]

Rx 500 seems has a bug which doesnt support UEFI bios so googled for solutions, found i can change bios so i did and here we are 😮‍💨

[still yacht]

Your work seems quite difficult.

I want to develop for backend service. Now I am iOS developer and I good for writing code in Swift. But when i try write backend service, i don't find project idea.

I released apps in App Store, i have two applications for ios platform

[stoic beacon]

Sunbird just completely shut down

[spice pine]

[sudden bough]

what's that?

[gilded forge]

the app that was supposed to bring iMessage to android

[sudden bough]

oh yeah cause they want to collect messages

[gilded forge]

that's not what it was

who knew routing plain text messages through a mac mini server farm could be a security risk lmao

[sudden bough]

wasn't there a hack tht exposed that anyone can gather text info

[gilded forge]

there wasn't a hack. but it was discovered that messages being sent were being sent in plain text, and not end-to-end encrypted.

[sudden bough]

dumb. why did they want to do that anyway?

[vapid cypress]

If normal people walk a dog, does Usain Bolt run a dog ?

[fossil frost]

normal people run with their dogs too, i run with my dog, he loves it

[vapid cypress]

Who let the dogs out

[sudden bough]

yeah i run with my dogs

[leaden crystal]

my pc just randomly crashed and rebooted
also a red led near the cmos battery of my moterboard was enabled
should i worry about that?

[prime solstice]

And does a dog walk a gamer?

[urban thistle]

Yo guys, I think I’m gonna start using my VR headset as my gaming monitor. My normal monitor can only go up to 70 shirts so 120 would be a big improvement.

[prime solstice]

I want one of those xreal glasses

[sudden bough]

xreal glasses?

[prime solstice]

Yes

[sudden bough]

what is

[prime solstice]

Glasses that have a screen in them

[sudden bough]

they look dorky

[prime solstice]

Yeah but you get a 120 hz screen

Or something like that

[sudden bough]

i supposed they are neat but id wait until the next version or something

[dreamy rose]

no. but it can make the water taste metally

[dreamy rose]

nope. went back to gmail

[fossil frost]

so, the big light i have on the front of my bike that lets me see where im going when i act like an idiot in the forrests at night... the bracket snapped and i cant use it anymore... an m5 bolt, 2 m4 bolts, and some fusion360 + my 3D printer later.. new bracket

[sudden bough]

Neat. An actually practical usage for a 3D printer

[fossil frost]

ive had several practical uses for mine

replacement knob for a bbq, and replacement knob for a food mixer, various toy wheels for school projects, GPU stands, other brackets for other things, cases for my raspi's, clips for LED strips

[sudden bough]

mrrr

[fossil frost]

made several robots with it too

and several models for the kids

ohh, also, my usb hub, its now part of my desk because i designed and printed out some brackets to mount it as part of the desk

[low rain]

I’m otw to school to do my slc and I realized that the template the teacher gave me was from q2 2022 and rn we’re in q1 2023 😭

[full fossil]

Guys i need more fps on amoung us my cpu can't run it

[sudden bough]

You mean GPU?

[fossil frost]

a set of callipers and a few days of messing around with fusion360, there isnt a lot that you cant do 😄

[full fossil]

idk but the game suddenly lags and crashes

whats a good game that will make my gpu (GTX 670) work hard (preferrably fps games). PC specs: i7 4790, gtx 670, 2x4GB RAM DDR3

[marsh carbon]

Tf2

[spice pine]

anything released after 2014

[full fossil]

thanks

[gleaming harbor]

[dreamy rose]

Half Life Opposing Force

[full fossil]

I can run cod advanced warfare and mw2 cr at 100fps

[drowsy patio]

was just laughing at the name

[drowsy patio]

when was it released?

[rose kernel]

anyone got any suggestions for things to ask for for christmas? preferably technology related

[sudden bough]

:d

[sudden bough]

what do you need?

[rose kernel]

just cool or helpful things or things you consider necessities, I don’t know if I need anything specific, but I might 🤷‍♂️

[sudden bough]

i got a robot mop for my birthday. cost $30 its perfect

but if you don't have a robot vacuum and mop you may want a combo

[rose kernel]

know what brand it is?

[sudden bough]

Hong Hui smart

Got it on Walmart.com

And I have the Pure clean vacuum

They are both dumb. No aps. No internet connections. Perfect

[rose kernel]

I’ll look into it thank u

[sudden bough]

But idk. You can ask for a steam deck

oh i also got a popcorn maker. a red nostalgia one

popcorn is good snack food instead of the processed stuff

[polar fern]

Nostalgia?

[sudden bough]

its a brand of old style appliances

[polar fern]

Old style? Now I’m curious

[sudden bough]

like vintange style appliances before they got all moderny

[polar fern]

Like this?

[sudden bough]

yes!

but mine doesn't have a switch

things didn't have switches back then

my parents have a wheeley one but full size

like 5' tall

[polar fern]

Mine from 1978 has a switch

[sudden bough]

idk i remebered ours just plugged in like mine does

but ours was metal

it had small corn cobs on it. white where the red is and yellow top

[north dawn]

https://i.servimg.com/u/f56/15/46/86/41/tm/dogger19.jpg
This is maximum 70s kitchen appliances

[sudden bough]

those just caught fire

we also had a manual meat grinder which i was terrified of

i'm also terrified of my garbage disposal

[north dawn]

as you should be

[polar fern]

That’s more like 1960’s

Properly installed garbage disposal units are pretty safe

This is the popcorn popper I have

Has switch

Older than I am, and it still works perfectly

[sudden bough]

ours was skinnier

maybe we had the cheap brand

[polar fern]

Yeah, there’s a model that is slightly narrower

[sudden bough]

idk where they got it. i also have a can opener from that time. still works

[polar fern]

Does it make the extremely awesome and amazing electric motor sound?

[sudden bough]

yes, grinds like crazy

[polar fern]

That buzzing noise is actually the transformer

[sudden bough]

its gross and a bit rusty i need to clean it

[polar fern]

Yeah, the cutting blade usually gets pretty gross after while

[sudden bough]

still sharp

has a blad sharpener

[polar fern]

Yeah, I think it’s actually made from some sort of tungsten alloy

Almost every appliance that I know of built in the 1970s and early 1980s is still working and people just never replaced it

My girlfriend‘s mom uses a washing machine and dryer from literally 1970

Washes stuff perfectly fine

[sudden bough]

wow X64 exception type on usb boot 😐

meh imma remake the boot disk i guess...

did it again!. meh ill try tomorrow

[digital prairie]

Stuff surviving from back then has quite a bit of survivorship boas attached to it. Yes, things were more durable back then and more repairable, but the only stuff that survived until today is more of an exception than a rule.

Same with how people can say that music from a certain decade was better than the crap we play nowadays. Only the good music survives to be played for decades after it's written.

[sudden bough]

uh no music was better back until around the 2010sish. things got watered down because attention spans got shorter and saturation became higher

good songs are an exception now, not the rule. youd maybe get a few meh songs a few decades ago

listens to elton john

[whole swallow]

maybe for the stuff that gets radio play but once you get into smaller labels/indy stuff there's more good music than ever

[sudden bough]

yeah pop music is poop

[harsh quartz]

Subjective matter is subjective?

[sudden bough]

a lot of music has been lost though. same with movies. that warehouse fire a while back ended an era

some black and white and silent films were really good

[sudden shale]

Tutututu Max Verstappen

[fierce moth]

Music is upto the matter of opinion

[sudden bough]

prolly have to been there kinda thing

[dreamy rose]

about. 1999

[old yacht]

I had a conversation about this with some family a while ago. Ill give my take not that anyone asked. I think Music right now is at its most creative point it ever will be. Reason being the bar for entry has been lowered so much that basically anyone with a phone can getup and record something.

Yes that makes it so alot more garbage stuff gets out there, but music is subjective, and I think its much better to look at how music has evolved in a short amount of time due to more and more people getting access to it.

So while some people wont like songs that are made. I think That todays music is better, because we get more creativity. (Again art is subjective, but thats why I think this generation of music is the best)

[sudden bough]

I think im just old lol

[harsh quartz]

Subjective matter is subjective?

[sudden bough]

I think something of the simplistic substance is gone it a lot of the music now

[fierce moth]

Like

A shit ton of people ain't gonna agree with my music tastes

Same goes with other people's music tastes

It's the way of the world

[sudden bough]

Yeah it’s more individualized now I guess. And not a collective meaning

[fierce moth]

My parents literally say I was born In the wrong generation 💀

[harsh quartz]

Just hit em with the “and who’s fault is that?”

[old yacht]

I agree, i soemtimes get bothered when people just hear a song and go "Oh this generation is bad, or this one could be better" Again I get its subjective, but like why hate on others enjoyment of music, if you dont like it, dont listen lol

[mental kayak]

Is that their way of telling you that you were an accident

[fierce moth]

Cause I like shit like Frank sinatra and classical

[fierce moth]

Oh God no, my parents music taste couldn't be more different from mine

[harsh quartz]

Yeah that’s not what I meant

[fierce moth]

My mum likes grunge and my dad likes metal

[fierce moth]

Mind explaining then?

[mental kayak]

I was expecting one of them to be into gangster rap

[harsh quartz]

Who fault is it that you were born when you were?

[fierce moth]

Funny thing is that if I drive I put on some jazz and I say to who ever is in the car, "I'm the driver so cope"

[fierce moth]

Ohhh

[sudden bough]

My dad likes oldies. Mom likes country. Sister is all about rap. I’m in that same classics boat with 90s pop

[fierce moth]

Now I get it

[harsh quartz]

I listen to exclusively lo-fi alt history punk

[sudden bough]

Star Wars but classical

[fierce moth]

Big band jazz and classical for me

[sudden bough]

Yes

Swing music?

[fierce moth]

Star wars is classical

[fierce moth]

Ye

[sudden bough]

Idk something I saw on YouTube

I know there’s an Adel and she’s got some the same classic features. Believe it or not I like Lady Gaga cause she’s more like a 90s pop. I’m just old and don’t like the new type of music. I grew up singing in a choir so

[fierce moth]

That quality tho

96khz @ 24bit

[sudden bough]

lol

Anyway, I don’t hate modern music. I just don’t care for it

And I think a lot of the songs miss something

I like some K-pop, though

[fierce moth]

i could never get into modern music

and i find rap music terrible

[sudden bough]

What don’t like BLACKPINK

[fierce moth]

but that just my opinionm

[fierce moth]

what is that

[cedar fog]

kpop

[sudden bough]

Rap and R&B in the 90s was good but then like most music it went poopy

BLACKPINK as a K-pop band

[fierce moth]

i dont listen to kpop

[lilac bear]

ah yes the "all music was good back in the day" as if there wasn't tens of thousands of shitty start up guitar players

[sudden bough]

Is that millennial whoop whenever that started happening that’s when I got bad

I’m saying it’s different now

[fierce moth]

also, VGM is top notch

istg nintendo makes better music than 90% of todays artists

[lilac bear]

it's like saying "all video games are shit today"

[sudden bough]

lol

[lilac bear]

[sudden bough]

Remember, when 8 bit music became a thing

[dreamy rose]

classic sega. thats peak

[fierce moth]

sonic 3 and knuckles

top notch

[dreamy rose]

you got shit like Collision chaos from Sonic CD (not the US crap the stuff they made for the EU and japan. because apparently "the Americans wouldn't like it")

[sudden bough]

Y’all ever heard of a band called garbage?

[dreamy rose]

they've made a LOT of music havent they?

[sudden bough]

[sudden bough]

I mean not all music back, then was good. Some songs were duds. Even from Brittany.

[pliant karma]

Gotta love it when person behind you has high beams

[sudden bough]

But the whole genre of music back, then isn’t really thing anymore

[sudden bough]

Slow down very slowly

[lilac bear]

idk I've just been hearing "the 80s were the last time music was good" since the 80s

[fierce moth]

thats what i do when someone tailgates me

unless if its on a busy road

[pliant karma]

Nah I brake checked that bastard and went speed.

[fierce moth]

in that case i stick my finger up at them

[sudden bough]

I actually got 25 and a 25 and get tailgated for it

[fierce moth]

well as an australian i yell obscenity's at shit drivers

[mental kayak]

you realize if you brake check someone with a dash cam and they smash into you you're fucked right?

[manic torrent]

tldr don't yuck others yum

[dreamy rose]

the last time music was actually tollerable was 2015.

[pliant karma]

Yea had to plan it right. Just a fast tap not the first time I’ve done it

[manic torrent]

looooooooooooooooool

[lilac bear]

let me guess your age, 27?

[mental kayak]

(a lot of people have this strong belief that the person that hits you is always at fault- which isnt true and is why i am pointing it out lol)

[manic torrent]

what's my age again?

[lilac bear]

90

[manic torrent]

you aren't even old enough to get the reference 😦

[sudden bough]

My age depends on what the client asks

[manic torrent]

and how much they are paying?

[sudden bough]

I got it

[sudden bough]

Yes

[lilac bear]

seriously

[manic torrent]

what the hell is call ID

[lilac bear]

how many "the 80s were the best" people live in chat

smh Windows 98 > Windows 11

[mental kayak]

i prefer 95...

[sudden bough]

No medieval ages when they launched the hurdy-gurdy

[mental kayak]

oops wrong reply

[pliant karma]

[manic torrent]

wrong, it was in fact the 90s, which is mathematically provable. I mean, you can't go back, but the mid-late 90s were basically the most amazing time for tech and gaming.

[dreamy rose]

Debian Hamm was better

[sudden bough]

Arguably true

[lilac bear]

stg there are 20 year olds in chat that basement dwell and think "the old days were better"

[lilac bear]

seriously

[fierce moth]

back in my day!

[sudden bough]

Back of my day we did the Charleston

Now y’all just floss

[manic torrent]

yeah I mean, I don't want to go back, and the 90s was absolutely fucked up for a lot of reasons, but it was a hell of a ride.

[lilac bear]

floss isn't even a thing anymore 😩

[sudden bough]

Yeah, it was good.

[sudden bough]

Well, guess what the Charleston still is

[lilac bear]

the default dance

oh sorry I am too young to get it

gatekeep your shit all you want

[fierce moth]

the 2000's was great for gaming ngl

[sudden bough]

Do people still square dance in school?

[fierce moth]

everything from the ps2 to the wii

[lilac bear]

the 90s or 2000s make up your mind

[mental kayak]

man the ps2 slim with the automatic disc ejector

cant remember how many of those i went through lmao

[manic torrent]

Man, I played so many hours of GTA:SA on my PS2 slim

[mental kayak]

i went through.. at least 3 copies of GTA:SA?

[sudden bough]

90s is when things really took off. 2000s is when things started to evolve

[lilac bear]

seriously

[mental kayak]

at some point it just stops reading or has dead spots on the disc- no matter how much you kept it in the case haha

[lilac bear]

"oh my HDD is better than an SSD" types of people

[mental kayak]

hdd is way better

[lilac bear]

[sudden bough]

HDD is at peak development. SSD has time to grow

[mental kayak]

yes so it makes more sense to buy spinning media

debate over continue on

[manic torrent]

Picture me, 12 or 13, trying to run doom on our 386 with 4MB ram. I couldn't get it to load. I thought "oh well, it can't be THAT much better than wolfenstein."
Then I learned you could press left shift to ignore autoexec.bat and config.sys - and there was enough memory to run doom. holy fucking shit you guys.
also, getting my first 8 bit ISA sound card? shit was CRAZY

[sudden bough]

I think HDDs are more stable. SSDs are just speedy

[fierce moth]

hdd's only make sense for bulk storage on the cheap

[manic torrent]

There was fundamentally game changing tech coming out regularly

[lilac bear]

nooo SSDs are better for every day use

[sudden bough]

lol

[lilac bear]

seriously

[sudden bough]

Computers today are Lego’s.

What?

[fierce moth]

all flash nas is more expensive per tb

[sudden bough]

Back then everything was new and exciting

Tech is still evolving but the momentum has slowed

[fierce moth]

if i was gonna build a top of the line nas

[lilac bear]

I can't tell what is sarcasm anymore aside from Zek

[manic torrent]

indeed. what even IS sarcasm.

[fierce moth]

it would have a shit ton of spinning rust cause i can get a shit ton of storage, maybe have an nvme caching layer

[sudden bough]

sarcasm is collective knowing of a true thing and producing an obvious counter to that thing as true

[manic torrent]

obvious?

also collective?

[sudden bough]

Yes but you have to know the thing to understand when someone is using a counter to it

[manic torrent]

oh, I don't think you do

[sudden bough]

What

[lilac bear]

oh really

[sudden bough]

I mean, what is your definition

[mental kayak]

well the drugs were better in the 90's

[sudden bough]

True

You were less likely to die from them

[mental kayak]

yeah now its all fentanyl - just a matter of how much

[sudden bough]

Something was lost when some tampered with pain medication in Chicago.

[clear mesa]

the only thing GTA i will play is fivem which relies on RAM and its recommended 32GB which i got a 16gb

Im also doing fortnite on low settings like comp settings and normal settiings for GTA

[clear mesa]

my budget is 2.2k

[fierce moth]

you'll be able to do high settings on fortnite

[sudden bough]

Oh

[clear mesa]

Im doing comp

[gleaming harbor]

[clear mesa]

and on normal settings that will be very good

[sudden bough]

Look at Black Friday pre builds

[clear mesa]

Fivem is gta rp

[sudden bough]

I’ve and omen and it works well

[clear mesa]

it is a prebuilt

[sudden bough]

What?

Oh lol

From where?

[clear mesa]

here are the specs

Intel Core i7-12700K - 16GB DDR4 Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 - 1TB SSD - Black - Looking to upgrade the 16GB to a 32Gb since its the recommended for Fivem also its on sale for 1.5k so its quite the deal if you ask me

[sudden bough]

That sounds better than mine so yeah

[clear mesa]

I have gotten better with PC's and all things including tech in the past 2 years

should i upgrade to 2TB?

[sudden bough]

You might want to because my hard drive is full and it’s only 1 tb

[clear mesa]

Roblox, GTA, Roblox, maybe cod, and lots of Sim racing games

[sudden bough]

I can play city skylines on high with no problems
