They’re illegal

Mate. Dank Pods was on the channel, Aussies aren't illegal anymore. They're just ex-convicts.

[manic torrent]

We got cancelled

[carmine stirrup]

I do

[fierce moth]

the UK plug system is the best there is, change my mind

[dull granite]

yea

[fierce moth]

even as an australian sparky i still admire all the safety features they crammed into the thing

[hazy parrot]

UK, what?

[cerulean saffron]

microsoft thinks I'm using location hiding techniques and won't give me win11 ISO... 😂 is there any alternate mirror for this?

[short iron]

Hello everyone, I've been experiencing intermittent Wi-Fi issues on Windows, occurring approximately once every week or two weeks. During these episodes, the Wi-Fi connection remains active, but data throughput becomes slow or non-existent. I sought assistance from Copilot and Bard, both of whom provided batch file solutions to address these problems. I haven't tested either of them yet. I'd appreciate opinions here on which one is considered better and, if necessary, any suggested tweaks. If I am allowed to post the two here in text format, which channel would be appropriate?

[haughty delta]

So true ;-;

[rancid dock]

i hate modern AAA gaming

[fierce moth]

the 1080 is still the best card in terms of looks ngl

[haughty delta]

The developers are making 1080p run on 40 fps with 4090 oc ;-;

[pearl orbit]

I've seen a couple of AU/NZ plugs with replaceable fuses. But the UK does a ring feed system, like the US. AU/NZ standards are probably the safer option, though more expensive.

[fierce moth]

the US has the worst plug system by far

[pearl orbit]

Oath

[inner lichen]

Can u run cinebench 2024 gpu benchmarks?

[fierce moth]

the au/nz standards can implement a number of the UK standards such as the shutters in the receptacles, but ive personally haven't seen any fuses

[rancid dock]

they make literally no effort to optimize their games on PC, most of the AAA games are just a horrible pc port from the console that runs like ass if you dont have a high end PC. AAA gaming is literally a luxury

[carmine stirrup]

sure, give me a bit

[pearl orbit]

We do have shutters in our outlets now. Part of ASNZS 2019 I think...

"Shuttered" socket-outlets are available, but these are not required by regulation.

[fierce moth]

yeah

mainly cause that would break compatibility for many older devices

[pearl orbit]

How so?

[fierce moth]

should of phrased it better, it would break compatablity for older devices that are double insulated

and plugs that are double insulated aren't required to have an earth pin

[pearl orbit]

They could do a dummy earth like on UK plugs

Making Class 2 more safe

[fierce moth]

yeah, but that assumes you could get a new plug for the devices

fixed wired plugs would be out of the picture for an average consumer

[pearl orbit]

PDL, HPM and Deta could all adopt the system. Manufacturers would have to adapt to stay relevant.

Standardise plugs too. Figure 8 and IEC. No more Cloverleaf.

And if it's LV, then USB-C.

[carmine stirrup]

@inner lichen Running now. Hold, please

[fierce moth]

plug standardization will never happen if we're being honest

[pearl orbit]

The PD standard allows for up to 20v.

[fierce moth]

but thats PD

im talking about standard house plugs

[indigo atlas]

You need some hold music

[pearl orbit]

With a government like yours and a rubbish one like mine, we could acheive greatness.

[carmine stirrup]

lol

@inner lichen 3636

[fierce moth]

although usb c as a standard LV plug with PD would be nice

[pearl orbit]

AS/NZS Electrical Standards 2024?

Pulling a middle finger to everyone at once.

[fierce moth]

although voltage would be higher to account for some things that still use LV plugs

such as stoves

microwaves

mostly kitchen appliances

[pearl orbit]

Oh, Low Voltage for me is sub 50V.

[fierce moth]

maybe keep a standard 230v outlet in some required locations such as a kitchen/laundry

[pearl orbit]

Things that use less wattage. Lamps, small apliances..

[fierce moth]

and have lv pd plugs for general use

[pearl orbit]

This is smarter than the motorised table.

Anyways, it's bed time for me. Later!

[fierce moth]

that also improves having to worry about ac to dc conversion since everything is done at the electrical panel

[pliant marlin]

Yall have any ergonomic chair recommendations? Thinking of getting a steelcase chair..

[fierce moth]

we will still need AC for long distance electrical travel

[inner lichen]

Thanks

[austere lake]

hi!

[inner lichen]

Do u hv 5700 or 5700xt

[carmine stirrup]

regular 5700

[inner lichen]

Ok thanks

[carmine stirrup]

is that in line with what you get?

[inner lichen]

I got 3200

[wild silo]

[haughty delta]

Sadly it is, 0 optimization...

[carmine stirrup]

Just discovered my E3-1230 V2 Xeon came yesterday!

hello 1000 more points in R23 😄

About the fastest CPU one can get on a 3rd Gen platform 🤣

[full fossil]

hi

[shut lichen]

Well no, you don't, AC transmission is just cheaper

[shut lichen]

Good fucking luck with that, we haven't even switched from 3000:2007 to 3000:2018 yet

[fierce moth]

There's more power loss with dc transmission

And electrical companies are looking to make every watt profitable

Also merry Christmas

[shut lichen]

There actually isn't though.
The only reason transmission is in AC is the ability to use transformers to easily change the voltage.

[glossy crest]

merry christmas everyone!

hope both side of yall pillow are cold!

[sour merlin]

my friend has ryzen 5 1600 and rx 570 and his games are starting to drop frames alot, he tried updating gpu drivers and stuff but fps is still low and hes blaming me for it 💀

[crystal pike]

did you mess around

if so I’d do the same honestly

[glossy crest]

Ho-ho-ho I just dropped by your friend’s house and gave him a RTX 4090 and Ryzen 7 5600x3d!

[sour merlin]

no i just showed him how to install adrenalin software on his pc thru teamviewer

[crystal pike]

damn

[glossy crest]

Ho-ho-ho MERRY CHRISTMAS!

[crystal pike]

merry Christmas old man

[sour merlin]

so?

[west oar]

overpriced

[long patrol]

Bruh. ITS 9000 Nitros

[west oar]

overpriced

[long patrol]

How is it overpriced

[west oar]

9,60 $ then i’ll consider

[long patrol]

1 Nitro costs that much

NOT 9000

[west oar]

take it or leave it

[long patrol]

ok fine

9.00$

[crystal pike]

Idk I replaced my phone and laptop with an iPad

no longer a pc person

[sour merlin]

bro thats nice

[long patrol]

@west oar Are you gonna pay or no

?

[crystal pike]

I make calls through a dumb phone so

[west oar]

na

[long patrol]

why

9$

[west oar]

i dont need nitro ,9$ can get me a pack of stickers for my pc

[long patrol]

ok

[crystal pike]

I feel weird holding an 11 inch device and texting

[long patrol]

@west oar What about this?

@west oar

[west oar]

meh im good

[long patrol]

ok

[carmine stirrup]

@long patrol pretty sure this is against rules #4 and #5

[long patrol]

What Rules?

[carmine stirrup]

#rules

[long patrol]

im not advertising

[carmine stirrup]

Yeah, you are

[long patrol]

what?

[carmine stirrup]

You're listing something you have for sale

[rancid dock]

you can generate thousands of these by yourself who would buy these xd

[long patrol]

How?

you cant

[rancid dock]

isnt this the opera gx discord gift stuff

[long patrol]

no

[rancid dock]

partner-promotions

p sure it is

[long patrol]

i got all my friends to get me nitro

so it might

idk

[carmine stirrup]

cough scam cough

[rancid dock]

also you can only use these on accounts that never had nitro before

[long patrol]

ok

[rancid dock]

so worthless

[long patrol]

No, you only need to not have nitro in the last 12 months

[rancid dock]

still, you are selling something for 100 USD that anyone can claim since its the opera gx nitro gift stuff lol
p sure this is against discord TOS btw

[long patrol]

its not against TOS

its just their mistake

[minor lotus]

yeah true, its opera gx's fault for making that bug. It cant be against TOS.

[long patrol]

and the fact that im selling nitro is not advertisment

im just trying to profit from their mistake

and i spent my time and compute recources to make that list of 40000 nitro gifts

[rancid dock]

<@&750150305383186585>

I think this is the screen to get for my behind-mirror PC. 4k and has speakers for $169

[dusky saddle]

i need advice
yay or nay?
https://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/awd-it-msi-m100r-amd-ryzen-5-5500-rtx-3060-16gb-ram-1tb-ssd-windows-11-gami-m1r-55361216g1-w6w/version.asp

looking for a new pc that can atleast run fortnite 😅😅

[crimson charm]

the machine isn't bad, but assuming I did the conversion right that price is way too high

@dusky saddle

[dusky saddle]

where would you reccomend i get it from a custom build?

[crimson charm]

To build a similar one yourself it comes out to around 700USD, that one you sent is more like 900 USD,
Are you open to building it yourself or are you only looking for prebuilt?

[dusky saddle]

more of a prebuilt

[dusky saddle]

dont have time with building myself and the patience 😅

[crimson charm]

What's your budget like? @dusky saddle

[dusky saddle]

700 prob max

[crimson charm]

what currency

[dusky saddle]

gbp

i would also like to set some leeway for future projects too however thats why im going for the RTX 3060

[soft swan]

Is the ti too expensive

Nvm it probably is

6700xt tho

[crimson charm]

the premium prebuilts charge for the Ti is way overpriced when you consider the small preformance increase it offers

[dusky saddle]

yea

[soft swan]

It’s 30% better but they probably charge more

[crimson charm]

30% is a bit generious

[dusky saddle]

however if im looking for a custom built where should i go

where do you reccomend

[soft swan]

Like it’s a pretty big difference 3060 can’t even reach a 2070 super, 3060 ti beats the 2080 super

[dusky saddle]

pc specialists?

[soft swan]

Building it

Or getting someone else to build it

[dusky saddle]

someone else to build

i dont have the patience

[soft swan]

Yea like someone you know

[crimson charm]

It really only takes a few hours at max, and that's assuming you know nothing

[dusky saddle]

no like the company

[crimson charm]

You'll save a good chunk of money

[soft swan]

Yea I guess there’s companies or like pc shops that would build it

[crimson charm]

Any custom build company you go to prob is gonna charge a considerably high premium at that price point

[dusky saddle]

true

[soft swan]

I don’t mean a custom build company

[dusky saddle]

i am thinking i should just go for my original choice

[soft swan]

I mean buying the parts and taking it to a pc shop asking them to build it

[dusky saddle]

ohh

[crimson charm]

it's really not a good deal tbh

[dusky saddle]

what makes you say that

[soft swan]

You’re gonna get better parts if you buy them yourself

And they’re gonna charge less to build it probably

[crimson charm]

because using name-brand and good parts my total is only 704 USD

[soft swan]

Than if u just buy it from someone

[crimson charm]

with a prebuilt you're gonna get 'lower-end' parts even if they're technically the same spec,

prebuilts usually cheap out on powersupply, ram, and sometimes mbo

[dusky saddle]

i was looking at a nzxt prebuilt but 😂😂 nzxt prebuilts are such a scam

[crimson charm]

basically all prebuilts are a scam 🙄

you're essentially paying someone 200 bucks to build it for you

[dusky saddle]

but what if im just looking to plug and play no faffing round

[crimson charm]

that 200 could be much better spent on stepping up the GPU or doubling your ram and shit

[soft swan]

https://youtu.be/Cuhc9MIvMsc?si=ynZJQndVraVwnK7I

[crimson charm]

LTT has a guide too think it's called like the last pc build guide you'll ever need

[knotty path]

hey yall

[crimson charm]

it really is worth it to build it yourself

[knotty path]

hows it going?

[crimson charm]

I'd try to find a prebuilt system for you if I could but none of the stuff I look at it usually gonna be applicable to outside north america

[knotty path]

Hi

finally played one of the games ive been lookin forward to for a while

[polar fern]

Ho ho ho

Happy winter everyone

[still mason]

is this battlefield

[faint breach]

BF5 is fun with friends

[still mason]

i have it but never tried it

[faint breach]

It's good just no BF1 good

[still mason]

funny how i wanted to buy bf1 at first but my friend convinced me in buying batllefield 5 (he heard its better from somewhere)

[faint breach]

They lied to mans

[ocean narwhal]

How do macbooks get so insane memory bandwidth? You'd need like a 22 channel CPU to get that on an epyc server

[faint breach]

They're arm not x86 architecture

[ocean narwhal]

Or dual epyc genoa I suppose

its a hardware level thing I dont think arm is the reason. its still just ddr5

[faint breach]

Well for arm it's different with how they manage the memory compared to x86

[vague bluff]

Merry xmas LTT and all !

[ocean narwhal]

Thats insane lmao. It would cost, approx ish $6-8k to build an epyc server that has the same memory bandwidth as the max out max studio. Which is actually competitive because the mac studio costs $7k and you get a bunch more features with the server

[sturdy dune]

im glad my pc meets the minimum requirements

[faint breach]

what game?

[sturdy dune]

warhammer darktide

trying it before i buy it since its on sale on steam, but i have gamepass for a few months

[faint breach]

Yeah it's fun

[eager notch]

I don't get why Linus doesn't ever look at actual LED walls rather than that weird TCL thing he did today.

This LED wall is 160 inches diagonal while being $4000 cheaper

[left dragon]

That reminds me need to just go ahead and setup MSI afterburner for that glorious overlay information. Also SAME! I just got around to where on this system could barely run Halo Infinite on low, to now maxed out with oodles of frames above what I needed and yet runs cool as beans.

[restive lion]

(The video specifically says why they didn't touch on a panel wall)

[left dragon]

I still got to install these 2 here on my new system, never played games like either of these ever before.

They were freebies or part of cheap humble bundle long ago.

Wtf

[light marsh]

hi

[graceful burrow]

Hello

[pure olive]

howdy

[eager notch]

That's low for LED walls, the standard is 3840hz and high end is 7680 hz

[pure olive]

wtf

[hot tartan]

That’s crazy

[proper sedge]

lmao

merry christmas you filthy animals

[pure olive]

and a happy new year

[proper sedge]

7680 hz? wtf?

isnt thaat a tad fast

[pure olive]

i could run it at full resolution
with fsr3... at 1080p... in minecraft

[proper sedge]

7680 fps?

[hot tartan]

I get like 2-3000 fps with low settings 1080p already in Minecraft, almost there

[proper sedge]

lol

[pure olive]

its that 4070

[hot tartan]

It’s putting in hard work ok

[proper sedge]

bet ya butt it gets hot

[pure olive]

1080p low is hard work for a 4070

akn i love ya buddy im just fucking with you

[proper sedge]

ouch

[hot tartan]

Yeah the fans ramp up to 3000 rpm poor buddy is struggling

[pure olive]

hehe

[hot tartan]

That’s all I can really do w the 4070 anything else is a BSOD

[eager notch]

They don't take an input of 2000 hz, they only take an input of 60-120 hz and then play the same frame 30-70 times so with persistence of vision it appears that they are consistently on

[proper sedge]

im new here fam. joined the other day. im an avid it pro with about 20 years on my belt.

happy to be here

[pure olive]

oh ok that makes sense

[proper sedge]

so 70hz

[hot tartan]

Ohhh, interesting

[proper sedge]

more than 200 is required to not see the flicker

hz that is

just not on ac input

[eager notch]

They also need stupid high refresh rates so that if you are filming them, they don't appear to flicker

[hot tartan]

Oh yeah

[proper sedge]

thus is true. comparable to the lcd scanlines

or crt scanlines

[eager notch]

This is the budget version of screen that they used to film mandalorian

[hot tartan]

They used screen as backdrops I’m guessing?

[eager notch]

Yeah, and to light the production.
https://www.unit-led.com/mandalorian-led-wall

[hot tartan]

Oh that’s actually sick, thanks

[proper sedge]

@eager notch thats wicked

I work in theatrical production and I really want to get an LED screen for backdrops, the problem is to get one in the size of the stage we have is like 30,000 USD

[elfin jetty]

I cant believe 2023 is almost over

yeah and i assume building it in house would be just as expensive

exactly. 99% of the time "Will X bottleneck Y" is either an extremely obvious yes or no, and the other 1% depends entirely on exactly what you're doing.

Then I went on speed test and i picked cellular provider server in DR Congo

Apart from the ping (over half a second of it both ways), it's still faster than DSL

24Mbps/23Mbps

I think here 24Mbps down is maybe possible on ADSL but 20 upload yeah no chance in hell

[quaint venture]

Keem?

[steep girder]

And it's already faster than ADSL can do infra-wise pretty sure. The fastest I remember reading was like 8Mbps download and the way they surpass that is by hooking up multiple connections

[polar fern]

see above post

[steep girder]

What did I walk into in general chat? Scroll up. A whole argument started by a dude making a joke about dead dog apparently

...and then explained it lol

No, no you must not have gotten the punchline

[polar fern]

i dunno but that keem guy seems like a massive tool

most of those lumberjack mcbeardface folks tend to be

"look how masculine i am!"

"i grow dead stuff out my face!"

[steep girder]

Who tf is keemstar. I always hear that name and like 9x10^c tonnes of contraversy whenever he's mentioned

I know he's a youtuber or something

[polar fern]

something no clue just did a wiki lookup and yeah he does some pretty horrible stuff

[steep girder]

But why do people watch this stuff or even care lol. Like who are these people. Who cares about em lol

People are way too invested in these online personas or 'public figures' these days

[polar fern]

indeed

[fossil frost]

you could say the exact same thing about any youtuber, or any other media personality

[deft bear]

Hi everyone, Happy Christmas 😄 🤶

[polar fern]

internet famous cringe jackholes are a dime a dozen these days, it seems

[steep girder]

Well no there are like 9bill views hyped up dudes who everybody doesn't even know why they're watching them. I personally watch small youtubers who I actually like... or at least can stand lol

Like pick your own content don't let youtube just feed you recommended content lol

Dhar Man. That guy is the algorithm personafied

[polar fern]

jezuz

[fossil frost]

so what you are saying is you dont watch this guy because he isnt in your own personal preference, but cant understand that he MAY be in someone elses personal preference?

[polar fern]

there are "look at me" folks and then there are the actually mentally unhinged folks that should not have access to large numbers of people

[steep girder]

Well no I'm saying if he's not your personal preference don't watch him. But the thing is keemer seems to be one of those world renowned guys who everytime I hear their name it's always in a negative context

[polar fern]

wathcing the qube 500 video

[steep girder]

So I mean idk why people feed the monsters lol. Sometimes it gets insanely unhealthy too. Like kobra. This guy literally drank his brain tissue away on stream in the course of half a decade. And people basically watch the streams and egg him on to do more destructive crap

[polar fern]

exactly, folks need to stop feeding the monsters, online and irl

[steep girder]

Same w fousitube I think it was. People literally supporting his mental breakdown

[vapid smelt]

but keemstar is a canadian he cant be a bad guy

[soft swan]

Tbf it’s his fault for drinking, can’t control people all the time

[polar fern]

sigh

[manic torrent]

I was only pretending!

[polar fern]

its not you, its the idea that your shared content is somehow acceptable

[steep girder]

Well it's hard to say. For fousi some people are of the opinion that he actually needs clinical help. So in those cases, if it's true, that's a person w mental problem being harmed by follower idk

[polar fern]

a person is not their behavior

behavior should have consiquences

[steep girder]

I mean I did see some vids on his recent spiraling down and man he goes on full delusional rants.

He was even saying he'll kill himself or someone when police showed up. Idk how he even didn't get shot or tazed at least lol

[steep girder]

Well yeah but some people's behavior isn't exactly in their control. And often they might not even have any part of the blame. Like a person w mental illness. Meh we're getting too deep on this

[polar fern]

own your stuff

[vapid smelt]

such a same the police showed up if his plan was himself

[steep girder]

Somebody was trolling him but they did do actual stalking, or at least harassment online it looks like. Then he basically lost it and had a paranoid trip

[polar fern]

hard to have sympathy for someone who acts like a monster. should people be harassed etc? no, but held accountable for their actions in an appropreate way fitting of the situation

[steep girder]

And what about a person who knows somebody is mentally unstable or some sht harasses/stalks to intentionally cause a breakdown? Are they not to blame at least in conjunction w victim?

[polar fern]

two wrongs do not make a right

[steep girder]

Yeah

But monster? Idk I just kinda used that word as a metaphor for crappy behavior combined with the collective consciousness of the followers online lol

Conscience*

[vapid smelt]

he did say the hard R and bully people online for a living

[polar fern]

he wanted to send adult toys to africa "to reduce overpopulation" like

[steep girder]

Like a lot of them get into a spiral of getting trolled online and melting down because they act 'douchy' I guess is the word I'd use

[polar fern]

oh this wasnt melting down

[elfin jetty]

[echo canopy]

eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind. If everyone actually got punishment for what they did everyone would be in deep shit rn

[steep girder]

Like ignorant, not being thankful to viewers and instead 'flexing' their 'swag'

Or whatever the young kids say these days

[vapid smelt]

eye for an eye would make people think twice

[polar fern]

fear isnt the way breh

[echo canopy]

er, not really. anger, rage, and just plain hatred makes people think irrationally

[steep girder]

Once after the first eye, second time after the last one gets taken?

[vapid smelt]

kim jong un would disagree

[polar fern]

hes fat though, maybe he eats all the eyes

[echo canopy]

Yeah and now they dont even have enough women to keep their popluation numbers up lol

[vapid smelt]

we know he eats gaint rabbits that are the size of dogs

[polar fern]

his fatehr never passed gas

[steep girder]

Bro they don't have liquid gas of any kind to fuel their cars. I heard they are powered by firewood sometimes

[vapid smelt]

kim doesnt even shit

[polar fern]

plant wheat so dense the youngest girl in the village can lay on top of it

[echo canopy]

That would be something like a steam engine and uh... do they even have the water for that?

[steep girder]

Kim Jong Un went to school in switzerland or some sht apparently. If that's true, he likely doesn't believe all that propaganda himself having seen outside world lol

[vapid smelt]

the kims even invited the hamburger

[echo canopy]

None of them do lol

you know I think it was his dad LOVED western media

[steep girder]

And there's other theories that even he himself is under serious pressure because NK has a few of highest level officials "keeping each other in check"

[vapid smelt]

he did kidnap a movie star

[echo canopy]

yes he did

remember kids to take even moderation in moderation. being extreme about something is a very easy way to radicalize you and others

cough hasan

[polar fern]

hasan lost hisway a long time ago.

sadge

[echo canopy]

he never had his damn way

[polar fern]

😄

[steep girder]

Which makes sense because that kinda 'socialism' is definitely not built on trust lmfao. Like KGB in the soviet union. They just followed people in the open without bothering to remain covert in any way. So it was both surveillance and sending a message at the same time.

Two bords wis wan stone, comrades.

[vapid smelt]

[echo canopy]

Dimmskii youre getting a little too political. just leave it at hard facts mkay?

[polar fern]

[steep girder]

Well I mean I'm not saying good or bad. The fact is that kgb existed and did stuff along the lines of what I wrote just now. Pretty much my whole family starting from parents lived through soviet union

[safe ember]

oh yeah no i totally agree with that. i just thought the tweet was funny since everyone on twitter is just reposting that text lol

keemstar is a nasty word

[steep girder]

Like my dad had to buy bootlegs which he was lucky enough to get a hold of since Murmansk is a port city. Also it's that nuclear sub city featured in red october

[echo canopy]

Is R5 5500 and RTX 2060 super considered a high-end or medium end?

[polar fern]

i dumped twitter over a year ago - place is a bowl of toxic sludge held by a racist manchild

[steep girder]

But yeah picture it's illegal to listen to pink floyed all of the sudden

[safe ember]

it is you're totally right, i just go on there for funny shit

[glossy crest]

Ho-ho-ho there was on time a saw a unicorn action fig inside a mason jar when I was delivering the gifts! It was covered in goo!

[steep girder]

Which is funny because they told me how The Wall amazingly enough was actually even looked favorably upon by gov't. Then the final cut came out (which was b-sides basically of the Wall from movie that weren't on LP)...

[vapid smelt]

low

[loud drum]

What do you guys think of aspartame

[glossy crest]

🧢

[polar fern]

it gross

"put it on my bill"

[echo canopy]

I wouldn't call him racist, more just calling people out for being racist against white people in a world that claims you cant be racist twoards white people

[steep girder]

There was one sample they used in a song where a guy screams something about Afghanistan. Pink Floyd insta-gebannt from literally entire country

Thats what you get when your government has a 'ministry of culture' lol

[polar fern]

i bless the rains down in castamere

[steep girder]

It also tastes sweet

But idk I think it's banned in half of Europe or something

Must be a reason behind that

[echo canopy]

reminds me of how the french are trying to keep the language "pure"

[vapid smelt]

the i3 13100 beats the 5500 and the 2060 super matches a last gen card that cost $190 which is viewed as entry level, so it would be low end

[glossy crest]

Guess I’ll save some for RTX 5060 next year

[steep girder]

Wait wtf in the last decade I think WHO flip flopped on aspartame cancer link

[loud drum]

As in it might cause it or won’t

[steep girder]

Then in wiki it says earlier this year WHO ruled out link to 'weight loss benefits' lol

[echo canopy]

who claims a alot of things cause cancer including meat

[steep girder]

I mean they added that it may have undesirable effects such as diabetes or cardiovascular disease if you overconsume aspartame... lol

[vapid smelt]

"Aspartame is one of the most thoroughly researched ingredients in history"

[steep girder]

So remind me again why is it even used as an alternative to sugar

[modern pine]

与各位交流，获取新思想😄

[polar fern]

i should build a thing that can launch missiles at the surface from orbit in ksp

[echo canopy]

yes

BE the USA

[loud drum]

I know someone that has been having aspartame since probably the 1980’s and he’s fine

[steep girder]

Well yeah if I used an artificial sweetner of any kind for some reason, I'd feel most comfortable with aspartame to be honest. Not even stevia or whatever that 'natural plant based' one is called that recently showed up everywhere

[echo canopy]

or just dont use sweetner

[polar fern]

i use coconut sugar instead of cane sugar

[steep girder]

Like energy drinks have guarana n a few others which im pretty sure are also herbs.

[vapid smelt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIAFe7zaCRU because its healthy the twins only drink diet soda!

[steep girder]

Well if it's a sugar, pretty sure it has just about the same risks as the rest of em in terms of diabetes, etc

[loud drum]

That’s the only reason I want other sweeteners

[steep girder]

Even milk. Milk has a lot of sugar apparently. Just that you don't realize it because lactose isn't as sweet I guess

[left dragon]

I saw an update on those 2, both those 1k pound women have actually lost a ... metric fuckton of weight and are/did get way healthier btw.

[loud drum]

That’s a lot of muscle mass to work with

They’ve been bulking their whole life

[loud drum]

Definitely better than before

Why do they look fake though

[left dragon]

Photo op probably processed the image way too much.

[steep girder]

Nice to hear. I mean all hatred/discrimination talk aside, there's a reason why peopless BMIs can be considered as morbid obesity in official medicine. It's actually messed up. I saw all that crap on TLC as a kid. At a certain point, you can get these tumors of fatty tissue

It's perpetually more stress on heart (so literally takes away life expectancy). On top of that, I mean it's theoretically even higher cancer risk off the bat because more tissue on your body you could say. Fat cancer is a thing.

[echo canopy]

And grinding, they’re doing a 500lb deadlift every time they get up. It’s not an insult. Fat people are shredded under all that fat

[loud drum]

Same

It’s pretty easy to work out moving around double the weight of an average person

[left dragon]

I can relate though, weight is something I am still working on lowering too and have succeeded slowly its just the more weight the more time to lose it as losing it too quickly is not good either and if I suddenly lose it too quickly without trying, then it would mean I would suddenly be in deep shit due to something else causing said weight loss.

[steep girder]

Well kinda. But that pales in comparison to the negative factors of being 500lbs. Nobody under even 10ft tall should weigh that much. Worse on heart every second of its life

[left dragon]

My caves are strong hehe from carrying my weight, I can believe it for people in that upper range above mine or like Boogie's range.

[echo canopy]

Remember that fat isn’t very dense at all so a little bit of weight loss goes a massive way in looking better

[loud drum]

Ive lost about 8kg in the past month or so

[steep girder]

Also btw that applies to muscle as well. Having too much muscle mass also shares a lot of the same problems with having too much fat.

[left dragon]

Yep, this coming year going to be trying on some other different meal changes. As increase in activities is checked, I don't and never have eaten like those sisters have to gain that so quickly. Just trying to turn what I got into muscle and I should be fine. ]

[steep girder]

Body building is pretty destructive I heard even without any roids whatsoever

[echo canopy]

If you do it too quickly

You’re supposed to give yourself recovery days and cycle the muscle groups you’re working on

[left dragon]

One thing common with some computer users growing up which I found I fell into too is, we may of gained sitting weight like tech support chair all day sitting weight. Our arms are the most worked from typing and using a mouse all day though and carry the most muscles.

We get that beer belly without the beer haha....

[echo canopy]

Do you not have like a job you get up for

[left dragon]

Which for me I know only way to work down my belly would be to work on pullups to get those stomach muscles working like, I'm 10yrs too late of doing.

[steep girder]

Well no it's also that everyone has a certain point where they have too much muscle mass for what their body is supposed to handle

[left dragon]

Oh sorry I was typing hypothetical.

[echo canopy]

Ah

[steep girder]

So problems w joints and heart as well I remember at least

[left dragon]

For me I get to walk to work and back every day.

[steep girder]

Like picture 500lbs of muscle on a small frame guy 5 foot 9 lol

[echo canopy]

I stand for 10 hours at work every day so I eat ungodly amounts of food and I’m still relatively skinny

[steep girder]

Idk at that point maybe you can't even flex too fast all the way because you'll dislocate shoulder lmfao

[left dragon]

Or.....356 6 foot 3

[steep girder]

Idk I'm not a doctor or dietician

[left dragon]

But, I was envisioning how some with bad diets and the like in the IT field can say some comform over the years into a common body shape we all know of 😉

[limber bane]

Hi

[echo canopy]

Your subconscious literally won’t let you do that unless you purposefully override it. Try to bite your tongue off and compare it to when you accidentally bite it chewing gum

[echo canopy]

Yeah too extreme is unhealthy but it’s hard to achieve in the first place

[steep girder]

Still gotta eat healthy though. Just because you're skinny doesn't mean you're fine. Diabetes is always possible to get with or without weight problem...

[echo canopy]

Yeah I have to go out of my way to regulate my sugar and salt intake.

[steep girder]

Hard as fck to get rid of though once you got it. I heard that the acquired type of diabetes can be cured sometimes with a lot of effort. Is that even true?

[echo canopy]

I didn’t even know it was “curable”

[left dragon]

Sugar from all the things, for sure. Its why for 2024, I'm going to try and find the right balance of foods that perhaps fits my metabolism better since I don't even know the rate of my own metabolism. I need to find what actually works best for me.

My parents had to deal with Type 2 Diabetes it sucks, so far I'm lucky I don't have diabetes that I know of..

[steep girder]

There are two distinct types primarily. One you're born with or predisposed to and the other you acquire at some point from unhealthy lifestyle. The one you're born with isn't curable pretty sure yeah.

[echo canopy]

Type and and type b can both be genetic. B is more based off of environment factors tho

[steep girder]

Which kinda sucks because it's in no way the person's fault ever. The other kind probably a big chunk of cases the person themselves were responsible for it ultimately. For which the punishment is like never eating even porridge with a bit of sugar. I think not even too much salt

[knotty path]

my life sucks

im at work until 2 am tonight

then i have to go back at 12 pm tomorrow

[steep girder]

Had an early childhood friend like that. Some other people I know w diabetes I didn't even realize for a while because they really don't have anything strict to follow for some reason. Not sure. Is it some severity thing?

Like one friend I only ever saw get cranky or max have a headache at which point he'd need a candy or something w sugar urgently

[left dragon]

I usually follow the if I crave sugar I have some, if I don't ill go a long while without any. Aside from the smaller amounts of sugar in other foods that are unavoidable sort of.

[steep girder]

So he actually needed sugar... or are you not supposed to do that? I remember something about regulating sugar yourself or some sht. And it's actually bad to do that

[knotty path]

i gotta fart so bad 😭

[left dragon]

Yeah education on all that is definitely ...bad I know I'm guilty of all of the unknowns on half of that.

[knotty path]

imma prob get fired

[left dragon]

[echo canopy]

Both don’t produce or utilize insulin enough so a lot of them take supplementary insulin but if you take too much and don’t consume enough sugar your blood sugar can drop too low

If you take insulin you’re able to eat like normal in general

[steep girder]

Yeah I know the insulin part. But some people I've never seen or hear of them take it

Or maybe it was very rare occasions.

[echo canopy]

You can be pre diabetic which is just a less severe case

A lot of Americans are

[steep girder]

Is that what hypoglycemic is?

[echo canopy]

That’s just low blood sugar

[steep girder]

Meh some kid told me once he 'had hypoglycemia' which was basically early stage of diabetes potentially

Right low blood sugar. I also know that keto diet + hypoglycemia = 'ketoacidosis'

[echo canopy]

I’m not familiar with it being a early sign I just know it can be a side effect of taking insulin

[steep girder]

So the whole diet you induce ketosis whatever that is lol. But some people may not know they're hypoglycemic or early diabetes and fck up because it makes a world of difference and they end up with that but acidosis appended to it

Acidosis idk but it's never a good thing when you hear it. I think that person can even die and needs paramedic immediately. Nice diet.

[echo canopy]

Just don’t eat a lot and eat a diverse diet literally 5 head move /j

[steep girder]

Maybe the other way around? Low blood sugar means take insulin? I thought it helps process sugar. But yeah the whole thing w diabetes is your body stops producing it. The general concept I think I understand. You surpass some threshold where it goes off balance

Also in general when you give your body supplements of anything, I always hear about it causing problems where your body stops producing whatever on its own. Nicotine addiction I could be wrong but your body has less than even normal level of it when smokers get withdrawal

Somebody told me fruits are important because drinking only juice for a long time somehow makes your body stop digesting fruit properly. So you can get physically dependent on the juice

[loud drum]

The classic storage method

[echo canopy]

Insulin causes your blood sugar to drop. You naturally produce insulin in response to sugar.

[echo canopy]

In the case of type 1 diabetes you literally can’t produce it and have to take supplements via shots

[steep girder]

You gotta eat enough of food with every single nutrient all humans require lol. You need minimum of everything which is different depending the person.

[loud drum]

Is type 2 the next tier in the battle pass

[echo canopy]

It’s actually a rank below type 1

You can still produce insulin in type 2

[loud drum]

Wait so type 2 is tier one then type 1 is tier two?

Would that make ‘type 3’ tier 3?

[steep girder]

Ohh. I think I get it now. So they're not even truly the same condition even? You're born with something that makes body unable to produce it entirely. The other one is more of a balance gone out of control? Because that would explain it

[echo canopy]

Type 2 you’re unable to effectively use insulin

[steep girder]

And people are born with it because it's somewhere in the actual genes right?

[echo canopy]

Both can be caused by genes but generally type one is genetic and caused by a autoimmune Disease

Your body kills its own insulin producing cells

[steep girder]

Well whatever it is there's some threshold you cross of how out of control the insulin level is idk. Also again I heard it's even possible to somehow get back to normal but hella hard and long process

Insanely strict diet and you can't screw around at all. That's the way apparently to undo diabetes if you gave it to yourself by doing unhealthy sht. Could be fake news though

[steep girder]

I didn't know that wow. So this adds one more to the list of things that can be caused by immune system attacking its own body. Too many things like that wtf

[polar fern]

And sometimes the immune system attacks the beta cells.

[steep girder]

A rare condition called Guillain-Barre exists where immune system just up and attacks the nervous system. It's painful as hell apparently. Feels like entire body is on fire.

[polar fern]

Vaccines can cause that

Trigger it I mean

[echo canopy]

not that you shouldnt get vaccines

[polar fern]

Autoimmune disorders are hell

[steep girder]

That's the scary part tbh. Keyword is sometimes. These things can happen out of nowhere to anybody from the looks of it. Like not even sure if the cause of the nervous system attack is known. Or Lupus I think is also one where it just seems to be an immune response

[polar fern]

Yes

Was just about to mention lupus

[steep girder]

A certain public figure's wife supposedly took a very recent vaccine which some found controversial. She was required to do so as well in order to keep nurse job or some sht.

[polar fern]

A girl I dated for a bit had a lupus flare right before we were supposed to meet up (online dating thing) & she was bedbound for like 3 weeks

[steep girder]

Boom. GBS. I think she's better now but wtf. Kinda sucks. Then again every single vaccine every admittedly have very very tiny chance of severe responses. Just that usually everybody agrees the benefit outweighs risk.

[polar fern]

We did phone calls tho 🤓

[echo canopy]

I would imagine it depends on the type. some functions by just giving you a weak version of the bacteria or virus, some expose you to something or gives you some kind of antibody or whatever, and newer ones gaslight your cells into producting antiboides

[steep girder]

Like my uncle's fiancee had the very bad response to smallpox vaccine (pre-early-90s one). Today she is still very affected by it. It was a ripple effect. First she had kidney problems or something. Then eventually peritonitis somehow. Had to get I think both of her ovaries removed eventually. Yeah sucks

It's a freakishly small chance of it happening but idk. I mean risking that in every kid vs nobody vaccinated against smallpox lmfao

Smallpox on the other hand has very serious kill rate. And the only reason nobody gets it is that vaccine. So helps a lot I'd say. No idea how somebody can be anti-smallpox vax

[echo canopy]

muh autism bro

[polar fern]

The mRNA vaccines just expose you to a fragment of the virus. It can be programmed to recreate other parts of the virus like the envelope proteins or nucliocapsid protein. Kinda neat how flexible it is.

[steep girder]

A lot of the tiny amount of people who have polio in developed countries got it because it was congenital or they couldn't get the vaccine in time. So people wanted the vax. They couldn't get it though. So it's not just the anti-vax problem. Sometimes reversely the vax is anti-you

[steep girder]

mRNA ones I heard are very new and not nearly as researched as the others because of it. There simply hasn't passed enough time yet

But I also remember reading that some believe mRNA is the only shot so far against specific viruses. Like HIV

[polar fern]

That’s not true. They’ve been working on this for like 12 years. The only new bit is the delivery method being successful

[echo canopy]

Some people are born immune to HIV fun fact

[polar fern]

Very few

[steep girder]

12 is still relatively way too new though no?

[polar fern]

It’s a mutation

[echo canopy]

in medical 12 is kinda old isnt it?

[steep girder]

And if 12 is years since they first started developing it, idk that's even less time since human trials

[polar fern]

The mRNA vaccines are the next step in vaccine development. It can be used to treat all kinds of stuff including cancer.

[steep girder]

Lol. Again, they're still arguing over aspartame it seems which has been around for nearly half a century... at least

[polar fern]

There are a lot of different compounds that have a sweet taste to them that doesn’t mean that they are “safe”

[echo canopy]

like antifreeze

[polar fern]

Propylene glycol, yes

[steep girder]

Propylene glycol is half the oil solvent in literally every vape juice lol

Ethylene glycol I know was the one that poisoned everybody one time in Austria because they started adding it to wine for sweetness lmfao

[polar fern]

if I had to choose between propylene glycol and beaver butt gland extract, I would choose the beaver

Yes

The Austrian wine tainting scandal

[steep girder]

But antifreeze is neither no? Antifreeze has some kind of those esthers or ketones whatever but the problem w it is once it gets to liver it metabolizes some of it into methanol ☠️

Im no doctor so I can't legally give medical opinion and have patients... but I wouldn't recommend drinking antifreeze lmfao. I don't think anybody recommended a single drop since it was made. Like that's one of the things you don't need long term trials for

If there was a trial, it was just one which was short and sweet. Cause of death? Well he drank antifreeze and holy sht autopsy found like formic acid corroded optic nerves and sht tonnes of formaldehyde idk

But i'd bet they already figured roughly what happens when you drink some ketone or whatever.

[steep girder]

I heared it being called the 'Austrian Wine Poisoning'. But yeah i'd say it's rightfully so a scandal. The stuff didn't end up in wine bottles by mistake. And the even sadder part is that it was used to cheat in wine reviews or ratings

[echo canopy]

Concentration matters heavlity as well as the way in injest it.

[steep girder]

They basically couldn't add sugar which they had a way to test. Then apparently nearby there was some other industrial chemical plant that had excess ethylene glycol. Somebody got the bright idea to use it since it was sweet and they couldn't detect it in the conventional ways

So like hundreds of people plus I think with liver damage all because they wanted to sweeten wine

[steep girder]

Well certain things like methanol for instance it's really moreso the doseage pretty sure. Maybe concentration really matters only if it's mixed with regular safe to drink alcohol. There's a funny way in which normal alcohol counteracts the poison one

[echo canopy]

i meant to say dosage

the amount you would inhale over X period of time in vape juice (and 30% is usually the flavor and nic) its "healthy".

[steep girder]

To this day, if you get poisoned with it, at the hospital they generally do that exact same thing. They give you ethanol just like vodka is. Only they do it directly into veins I guess and also add something saline to make the pH proper

[echo canopy]

i mean its effective

[steep girder]

Nah nicotine in vape is definitely way too much to be even inconsiquential. It's definitely unhealthy amount. Like your body apparently produces nicotine naturally in small amounts. It's a neurotransmitter as well or something like that

But even in a single toke of the lightest nicotine fluid you can usually buy, it's definitely harmful

[echo canopy]

I was calling the dosage of propylene glycol safe not the nic

[steep girder]

Well propylene glycol (or vegetable oil they use too or anything like that) idk... I mean before vapes, did we every even inhale vapors of that sht into our lungs in human history? Lol

[echo canopy]

its not "good" for you at all but the ammount required for vaping is very low compared to drinking a entier glass of antifreeze

[low rain]

i was thinking "damn i need to do some good deeds" so i was looking for spots to volunteer and i just found a spot that you have to pay to volunteer wtf

[steep girder]

At least in those amounts habitually on purpose. Like idk maybe something cooking once in a while people inhaled a whole range of stuff like that. But it's not nearly as much. I mean I still wonder that myself: where does the glycol go? You breathe some of it back out but...

Pretty sure it just chills in your lungs until you cough it up no?

[echo canopy]

it skips the whole digestion part and just goes straight into your blood stream

[steep girder]

Like cigarettes yeah tar, etc. But vaping I swear I've gotten mucus that's whitish or clear sometimes that I never had before

[steep girder]

No it's not supposed to. The nicotine does. The glycol is supposed to be 100% come back out as soon as possible

It's just the solvent used to put the nicotine or whatever substance it is youre vaping

[echo canopy]

I meant the part you dont breath out, sorry

[steep girder]

No other purpose to it. The whole idea is it's supposed to be very inert and not interact with your body when you inhale into lung. It shouldn't cross blood barrier at all pretty sure

[steep girder]

Either way, the part you never want to breathe out intentionally that's supposed to go into your blood for sure, which is the nicotine, is already very harmful at those dosages when you use it on repeat multiple times a day

[echo canopy]

definitly. not arguing aginst that

[steep girder]

The glycol idk but popcorn lung if you heard of it is a real danger if the vapor isn't cooled down enough before it gets into lungs. So the vapor no matter what it is can be too hot and a lot of people burn their lungs like that

And it's not exactly something most people even realize tbh. Like to vape properly, you gotta know how. One of the things is avoid small devices and try to get as big as possible chamber, whole device in general. You want a lot of expansion and distance travelled by vapor from when it gets made before you inhale it

I heard those cheap disposable ones that look like cigarette they sold at conveniences at first were definitely something to avoid. After that, idk. Vaping in the first place is not only objectively putting poison into your body "in a better cleaner way than through cigs"...

It's also not something that has long term data so idk. Best answer is don't lol

[steep girder]

Right? It's something that's really obvious if you see or read it explicitly,,, and yet everybody talks about cancer and the tar

Like nicotine is 120% guaranteed health problems over specific periods of time depending on the quantity, frequency, etc

Eventually, blood vessels harden and a whole bunch of other problems. Very serious stuff. So screw considering the cancer risk imo lol

The nicotine should be enough. Cancer idk. Even with burning tabacco which we've been doing for a long time, it's just too uncertain. Some people been smoking their whole life and still kicking it in their 90s. Others some of them get lung cancer from cigarettes in under a decade or two.

But all of them have way worse hands and varicose veins n sht I'd bet than they would had they not smoked entire life.

If you're one of those people who drinks a glass of wine a month or even a year. Idk maybe "for the antioxidants", every time you drink one of those glasses, you're both getting those (always presumed to be needed and helpful) antioxidants and killing some number of brain cells at the same time.

Also why is it always presumed that you never don't need more antioxidants lol. It got what the plants need. Why? Because it got antioxidants. But why do they need them? *

And whenever you hear "I'm perfectly fine to drive" or even "I'm better when I drive just a bit tipsy", that's BS as well. It's literally impossible to not be in more danger as long as any amount of alcohol reaches brain still. All it does is slow down nerve signals I think. So literally slower reaction time all around. Even if you don't notice at all that you're a bit drunk, it's actually still possible that it affects driver that way. So yeah... the laws are there for a reason and wherever it's non-zero, they're actually more lax than what they are supposed to prevent irl. Not the other way around. Mic drop

[alpine gale]

It's also great to ask fellow super-busy adults how much sleep they get each night. If it's less than 6 hours (on average), their brains are about as responsive as someone who drives around with 8 hours sleep (on average) after having 1-2 drinks. Something something sleep deprivation is dangerous. Get your beauty rest, people.

[steep girder]

Isn't the normal minimum most people agree on 7 hrs for adults?

[vapid smelt]

i only sleep 10-13 hours a night

[steep girder]

Idk some people say that's more than enough and they feel absolutely fine when they sleep 7 hours every week literally the rest of their life pretty much. They are able to stand it to the point where they add that on the weekends they get that same amount in as during workdays. Often times I hear the argument that weekends are your day off so why waste time you could be using for something personal. That's kind of true.

On the other hand, 7 hrs is apparently not enough sleep for pretty much any person. Especially adult tbh because after 30 your brain like stops growing back anything at all you could say. Kids idk they can get Hep B, lay in bed with jaundice for a week unable to do anything. Then after that they get over it and that's that. Adult gets hep b idk. Probably way more serious. If something gets damaged in adult body, it heals way slower to say the least. Again, brain cells lol you grew them the slowest until most people by 30 it's literally said to stop

Which tbh I don't get still because you can still remember and learn things your whole life no? Like at almost 30 memorizing the greek alphabet in its entirty finally. And all of their written shapes. Like greek alphabet is insanely easy for a foreign one tbh

Guys wtf I knew like 1/5 of greek alphabet by the time I left grade school. Math alone teaches pretty much everyone pi, sigma, delta, etc.

[carmine stirrup]

Just to reduce spread of misinformation: alcohol doesn't kill brain cells.

It does, however, damage dendrites and affect communication between brain cells

[steep girder]

But you learn usually just one of the two upper or lowercase lol. Alpha and omega I knew because like also a lot of people it's what god calls himself. Those are the first and last letters of the alphabet. Omega I knew uppercase because Ohms. Same thing they showed me just one of the two cases and said that's a greek letter which I guessed immediately was the equiv of latin O. As always, it's greek because they had to use another unit symbol which was still available. Can't use either of the two latin O's? Standard procedure as always: use the greek one. After that, there are more like Hebrew alphabet, etc

But I actually knew a lot of the letters' names. Maybe even all 24 of them I'd hear and know that it's a greek letter. So when I finally learned the entire Greek alphabet I really just put them in order lmfao.

[graceful burrow]

they should rename this channel to dimmskii diary time

[steep girder]

And learned both the uppercase and lowercase I guess because that's the real useful part for reading anything. Sigma I knew for a long time had uppercase and two lowercases I guess

[opal thunder]

[vapid zephyr]

It only kills your dendrites and basically everything else in your body, but the braincells- that's the important bit to clear up

[steep girder]

Well I mean we discovered digital information in general at one point. Before that, we lived completely oblivious to even countable and orderable discreet values. Our brains still somehow must have done it but we didn't realize

[vapid zephyr]

[steep girder]

Like at one point, if we were presented with two paths to keep running (away or after something usually): left path has one cheetah blocking it and the right has two or more...

like any primate we'd probably instinctively turn in the direction with at least one less count of deaading stuff than the other option. If you had no other option.

[vapid smelt]

make 4060s not 4090s

[steep girder]

Because idk behind you is a stampede of rhinos and you're running away from that thing originally. So we instinctively knew what we saw often times with even other animals already having a pretty abstract relationship with "what's safe" and "what kills us". When we see more than one, we somehow all count and to LTEQ, EQ or GTEQ with respect to another count. And yet we didn't even make the connection between that and the number of fingers held up

Which I guess in a way makes sense. We didn't think about the abstract basic algebra even perhaps. So we never really thought of one or any count after it for any reason other than the other number of existential threat or reward. So I mean idk apple tree. I'd bet most primates would go for the tree with clearly more apples than the other one. So if it's visible off the bat that one of two trees has more fruit...

Then apparently most civilizations started to count things on fingers just one hand and had base 5 system. Both hands along with base 10 came later on after another long while

But yeah that's digits. Digital systems use those. Tech chat

someone please help in tech support channel!

[steep girder]

Well wait did you already use the disk before and it's gone lol. Or is it a new one? Because if it's new then you didn't plug something in correctly. Most external disks have two cables you gotta plug in. Power and data. So make sure like sata is plugged into mobo and a second port is connected to inner side of PSU where every other connection is

[broken sleet]

can we take it to the chat

[steep girder]

I mean sure I'll give it a try. If the drive isn't broken should be a quick fix. Let's go.

if i dont have any ssd slots left, are there any adapters or other ways to put an m.2 in my computer

[winged ferry]

What is that

Is that a pcie thing?

[vapid smelt]

M.2 to PCIe Adapter

[winged ferry]

How does it work

[wispy marsh]

Only the lightning mages know

It's a family heirloom secret

[jaunty compass]

Well m.2 nvme drives use 4 pcie express lanes, that's a 16x card
4x4 is 16, so you can split one 16x slot into 4 4x slots

[wispy marsh]

What if it's plugged into a x4 slot?

[hot mulch]

your house will burn down

and form a black hole

Only one would work probably unless it's wired in a really stupid and clever way

Guys lol wtf who knows about commander pro at least a bit

Bc I don't want somebody to plug in the wrong thing. There was a drive sata power hooked up along with it. Is it possible to fry something?

[wispy marsh]

It's a fan controller using sata power

Except the abomination takes up a 5.25"

[steep girder]

Yeah but there's an adapter for some reason idk. It's already messed up.

[wispy marsh]

Might be open box

[steep girder]

Like is it possible to hook it up without that extension cale

[wispy marsh]

Check online for manuals and box contents if it's supposed to come with that

[steep girder]

And can it share a sata power cable with hdd

[wispy marsh]

Yes

[steep girder]

Ok

[wispy marsh]

Don't daisy chain like 6 hard drives along with this though

Three or four is the most i recommend for that cable

[steep girder]

Right I just got worried when I saw photo of adapter and a drive together with commander idk

Wanted to connected just the drive to same cable as the first disk.

Instead we unplugged sata and commander

idk now hes offline lol

I thought it was new drive installed so assumed too much. Turns out it was hdd plugged in there the whole time never used,,, if I'm finally understanding correctly

And if anyone has any clue as to how an hdd in sata can be showing in devices but not at all in disk mgmt. Refresh didn't work. Device manager update didn't either. Different sata port as well. But the system drive is plugged into that same mobo and works fine so idk...

I've had it not show up immediately before on like xp because the partitioning was GPT. It froze a bit, replugging eventually gave error in disk manager and still at least showed the drive. There was also one big unknown volume saying GPT somewhere that I couldn't edit. So idk...

[gilded forge]

dimmski you're like the only person in this server that I know will write whole paragraphs in reply to one messgae6

[steep girder]

Well this dude went offline lol

And I don't want to be the reason why he fries his system trying to get one hdd working lol

Thats what I get for skipping steps I guess

[steep girder]

There was still fdisk in command prompt, sea tools checks, a few other things. But people with this same issue are saying apparently it might show up in 3rd party tools. They do a smart check or something and the drive shows up all of the sudden. But after reboot it's still a problem. Is the drive just borked?

It's 4pm Christmas day here and I am in a food coma

[steep girder]

You always pay extra for the hummus and they don't put it in. It's a conspiracy

Actually merry christmas

It's 33 min into christmas here

I got a ps1 for Christmas Eve

With final fantasy 7

its 9:34pm here on the 24th.

git gud

[steep girder]

That's difficult to do from timezone in most places

[opal thunder]

Yes but I live in one of the bigger cities in that timezone.

[steep girder]

But a few... especially ones in those timezones with half hour offset lol

[prime solstice]

Hey leave me be I’d rather play my ps1 and finish off this Christmas Eve before the 25th

[gilded forge]

fair. I spent most of my Christmas Eve playing far cry 6 and half life 2.

[steep girder]

Honestly ps1 w final fantasy for christmas is better than ps6 which just means you gotta pay monthly to go online lmfao

[opal thunder]

Bruh the steam sale is tempting but I have to get dental surgery to remove my wisdom teeth.
I cry.

[prime solstice]

I brought my steam deck to my grandparents house and mostly played games

[steep girder]

For you this christmas I got an ongoing expense

[prime solstice]

Yeah I did get ff7 with it

[gilded forge]

ya know what would ease that pain, a $14 bundle of every valve game.

[steep girder]

Final fantasy for 90$ on ps5 and it runs at like 30fps or something

[prime solstice]

I’d enjoy the fps I get on the original PlayStation

[steep girder]

It would but I already bought all the valve games a long time ago not in a bundle lol

[opal thunder]

free fallout 3 was pretty nice

[steep girder]

[opal thunder]

I forgot to get fallout 3 while it was free

Just get the ps1 and the ps4 pro you got a ps5 pro

[opal thunder]

sadge

[prime solstice]

I got 2 books today American Prometheus a book about j Robert Oppenheimer that is 719 pages and ask iwata

[fervent swallow]

lol

[prime solstice]

I kinda want to do that to my brother buy a cheap ps4 and tape my ps1 to it and put it in a ps5 box and see his reaction

[gilded forge]

I got the 4k Blu-ray or Oppenheimer to watch (or rip)

[prime solstice]

Nice

[fervent swallow]

lol

[steep girder]

That'll be the highest def blu ray youll every watch probably

[prime solstice]

Make sure you wear sunglasses when they test the nuke I should’ve done that when I seen it in the movie theatre

[steep girder]

Blu ray I don't think has any more capacity after that. I did the math before. But 4k feature length movie I think already uses disc with most possible layers, etc

[gilded forge]

most definitely. the only other 4k Blu-ray I own is Interstellar.

[prime solstice]

Christopher Nolan makes good movies

[steep girder]

After that the last thing we can do is write on double sided bd

Which is funny because double sided compact discs are kind of an automatically available future support without any specifications or intention. Just you can make a double sided disc

I remember DVDs used to do that. Also when we ran out of space on them using the maximum possible capacity they can get. Kinda sad bc after blu ray there's likely no more compact disc forever.

[iron drum]

does anyone know how to force shut down a laptop without holding down a power button

my laptop is stuck on the updates are underway fucking thing

[graceful burrow]

remove the battery

[iron drum]

is that the only way?

[graceful burrow]

hit it with a very heavy hammer

[iron drum]

alr bet

[steep girder]

Or anything spinning to be honest really soon. HDD gone. Floppies gone. Audio CD and vinyl I guess. Audio CD still has better quality than some digital releases to date . You can buy albums in like mp3 not even 320kbps.

I know this artist by the name of DJ Zinc. He re-released his first famous mix of ready or not on band camp. The mp3 is available on soundcloud and I think band camp as preview lol. When you buy it, it's in CD quality. Worth

[steep girder]

I don't even own a blu ray player lol. Last one I owned was a ps3. Which tbh I didn't specifically get for the movies but it was a very nice plus

Also it played audio SACDs. So that marks 4 formats along w CD, DVD and BD. Imo all players should support that minimally. For SACD, at least reading if it's a burner. So you can watch 4k interstellar but also play that 24bit depth special edition dark side of the moon

If you dont have SACD player, can't read it at all. Lol so 4k movie but can it run 70s pink floyd album

[steep girder]

Hold power button btw. If you do it long enough, it should turn off usually. The updates will stop but you might have to repair your OS to get it booting again... in other words not recommended

[prime solstice]

Honestly without John mcclane we wouldn’t have Christmas

[steep girder]

And if the outcome lands on windows not breaking, you'll still have to wait for update to either complete or roll back for roughly the same amount of time. So just wait it out because you're at least part way done

[rapid jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/loading-microsoft-windows-windows-xp-gif-17309666

[steep girder]

Then uninstall the update if you really want in programs and features lol. They uninstall pretty fast that way for some reason. Install and roll back like 10 min sometimes still. Afterwards it's as easy as right click uninstall then reboot w practically no waiting. I wonder why that is lol

[steep girder]

The blue bar is not authentic looking tho

[rapid jackal]

idk..I just searched windows

[steep girder]

I remember for xp I literally drew 800x600 bmp and somehow set it as the startup logo

It could only be 8bit color 800x600 though. For a 256 color splash screen xp one looked really nice. They made it work :P

Today on my android smart phone just to get full access to my own device i have to flash custom firmware. Then the boot logo becomes warning page that says device isnt authentic and may be compromised

I still havent managed to replace any of the boot logo. Or at least to remove that message. But to change logo on that device, you would still end up with the same problem

[wispy marsh]

It's a brainwashing method

[steep girder]

Well no I mean no brainwashing required

[wispy marsh]

The more you see of something the less uncomfortable you become with it

[rapid jackal]

I have a Samsung A03s that I want to install a custom ROM on...but it doesn't have OEM Unlocking in the dev options :(

[steep girder]

At least for that part. Like brainwashing or not; comfortable or not I still can't get root on my device without breaking half of the features it came w

[wispy marsh]

Lineage, maybe

[steep girder]

Which personally I never really use. Samsung pay and crap. As long as I get play services to pass dmverity and safetynet etc. Some apps require it like pokemon go to start.

Which already became hella process tbh. Used to not be a thing. Then at first it was simple. Today, it's like no more magisk but zygisk or some crap. It has to be systemless. Then you gotta hide root from play services and all the apps that check for it

[indigo atlas]

https://xdaforums.com/t/samsung-galaxy-a03s-no-oem-unlock-option-in-developer-settings.4493149/ , maybe you can get some info from this

[steep girder]

Sometimes gotta disguise the magisk app with a different name too

[rapid jackal]

Indeed.

[steep girder]

Yup. Ive even had devices lately which I was fortunate enough to have that option. Some regions I think or another factor plays into it. Not all of them had bootloader unlock for a while now

[wispy marsh]

Never had such problems because iPhone

[steep girder]

But yeah sucks. For a device like the one you posted, perhaps the only root method remains to be getting ahold of samsung jtag or whatever the heck their diagnostic is. It's a hardware thing w cable or something along those lines

Or testbed. Xiamoi 5s I know you like opened phone and clamped it into a testbed. Then from there you can flash directly whatever you want without even unlocking bootloader

So I guess their security worked on the premise of only xiaomi is supposed to have their equipment.

Another thing is to wait like 5+ years (or even 10+ who knows) until maybe with a decent chance an exploit is found where you can just root the phone without flashing

So on Sammy the way it works is you get updates to fix those vulns but eventually all phones no longer receive newer fw updates. Best way though is to stay on the very first fw you got out of the box to increase your chances

[rapid jackal]

I have a pixel as my main phone. the samsung one was a mistake.

[steep girder]

But idk samsung I disabled automatic update and said no at least twice when it popped up. Then one day i realized that the phone updated itself when I wasnt looking

And pretty sure there was a useful hole (so I can gain access to my own device without voiding warranty or breaking it or violoating terms of service ffs) on the older version by then

[steep girder]

Pixels idk they might look better in some ways but... it's google lol

[iron drum]

wtf this symbol mean

💀

[steep girder]

Copy

[iron drum]

nah its

next to the minimize symbol

[rapid jackal]

where?

[rapid jackal]

maximize?

[steep girder]

Oh lol right

[iron drum]

it makes the window smaller

when i click it

[steep girder]

un-maximize

[iron drum]

the app im using doesnt have a unmaximise button is there any hotkey for it

[steep girder]

Yeah and when you click it and window unmaximizes symbol changes to just one square window right

Windows itself should be able to always do that with hotkeys

Start button+arrows

[left viper]

what is a payphone? i tohught i had unlimited data?

[steep girder]

Play around with that. I know that once window is on top half or quadrant of screen, start+up maximizes sometimes. Start+down I think goes back.

[iron drum]

TYTYYTTY

[steep girder]

When it's small window, start+arrows moves it around between quadrants on screen. If you have multiple displays you can go further do the side or wherever your other desktop is. Then it moves the window between monitors too

Very useful thing which I tried and it happened to work. When second monitor is off or disconnected but the other desktop is still there for some reason..

Open firefox. It's on invisible side where I left it. Gg.

[steep girder]

Np. Theres a lot more of those just search it

Probably one which minimizes and maximizes directly without moving window first

[merry gull]

today's search history starting off strong

[steep girder]

Lmfao reddit I have seen someone using a h4 car bulb to heat pcb to change fried components.

[vapid smelt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SNKflKhCUo o wait you want to melt it not find a surface to work on

[steep girder]

Honestly you can just conventional oven to reflow pcb

Apple certified technicians apparently did it as well. Not an oven meant for that purpose. I mean literally stove oven

Just increase temp until solder melts and stop in time before pcb and anything else does

[steep girder]

Honestly is it perhaps possible to reflow with a hair dryer on hottest?

If you move it in close enough lol. Actually I doubt it.

[vapid smelt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYrucIWig24 got a pan and sand?

[steep girder]

Honestly a soldering mat should at least withstand having heat gun reflowing on it. I mean it's a soldering mat lol. I'd personally just be ok with hardwood table though. Hardwood tables usually do all that.

[merry gull]

Also, is there any way I can make my Ender 3 actually SAVE the settings I give it? I have the perfect settings and when I turn it off, they're gone

[merry gull]

Probably

[steep girder]

Well yeah but hot air and oven you use specifically tools meant for that purpose. 3d printer to reflow is automatic no answer in my books because it's a 3d printer... not a 2d solder on pcb unprinter

[gilded forge]

I don't like sand. it's coarse and rough and it gets everywhere

[vapid smelt]

that why i store it in a backpack

[steep girder]

Like oven idk but id bet the solder will reflow but if pcb is on the oven grill, it might melt first where it's touching.

[merry gull]

How to get a massage:
Step 1 - Wear crocs

[steep girder]

Maybe I'm talking crap. Main thing though is I'd look for something that wouldn't melt more than solder or fry components somehow

[merry gull]

I'm broke, just bought my printer

[steep girder]

Which with soldering iron I know you can hold it for too long and fry things if youre not careful. Blowtorch or jet lighter idk but it's not as evenly spread as air gun or oven lol

[merry gull]

Can't hand solder BGA

[steep girder]

Like you can solder maybe or even say reflow... but not the entire thing. Reflow should be done on whole board at once pretty sure :P

Actually nah. But definitely not just one pad where you jet the visibly blue plasma on it. That's not a reflow. But yeah I still want to emphasize how you can even apparently use oven to reflow

Sometimes it comes out fixed, sometimes it doesnt. Apple certified repair shop apparently just left it up to rng. Like 10% of them are working again. Good bin. The other 90% bad bin which is where they would have ended up anyways I bet

[steep girder]

Maybe but that sounds like torture.

Unless you reball it or have the right amount of solder on it to just reflow

Youre gonna be sitting for like an hr at least. Then you gotta use suction to remove solder a bunch of times i bet

Theyre close together so you can easily get danglers or just fuse two contacts

Then pull off solder or wick maybe idk

[devout pasture]

do you know if we can customise these in windows

[steep girder]

Yes but it's not recommended unless you really know what you're doing. Officially not allowed even

uxstyles or something. Since 7 it's the same system on desktop windows but since 8 the apps have a separate framework. If you look at like settings app or microsoft store youll notice that the windows and buttons are diff. That I'm not sure about

https://github.com/namazso/SecureUxTheme

Actually this doesn't require patching windows files so better. Still officially not supported tho. Windows can have custom themes but they lock it so that only microsoft signed ones can be loaded. Then you gotta search for win 10 or 11 themes to download whichever one you have. Then patch and set through that program

Problem with 10+ is that themes are incompatible between even major builds. So like creators edition theme won't work on 1909 at least completely. Sometimes not at all. You could end up with like explorer crashing when it opens file copy dialog. Sht like that. There are themes on deviant art I know. But idk if it's 100% safe. They're dlls. Maybe its only supposed to load from resource header but I'm not too convinced. It's windows after all.

And even then, you can still have a virus inside the theme file sitting there
