[peak phoenix]

Used to be one of the biggest CDNs. Dunno where they are now

[shut lichen]

lol no, azure is huge.

[carmine stirrup]

Akami proxies over 30% off Internet traffic

[fossil frost]

alami is the backbone of a lot of the web.. if you watch a video, you have used akami

[restive lion]

Akamai is still massive yeh

[peak phoenix]

Traffic entering AWS or Azure doesn't equate data going to them.

[shut lichen]

you're funny

[peak phoenix]

The service running on top of AWS or Azure, yes.

[peak phoenix]

Or I've worked on some of this stuff...

[carmine stirrup]

I suppose it depends on the definition of data in that instance

[shut lichen]

oh Akamai

[restive lion]

Microsoft collecting user data from other companies running on their infra would be a huge no-no

[carmine stirrup]

The platform still sees ip and encrypted data packet

[restive lion]

That's like sue-you-into-the-ground territory

[whole swallow]

huh, I have not heard of Akamai. Time for a wiki hole

[peak phoenix]

Yeah I'm being specific. They're not scraping the data going TO the service.

[fossil frost]

it is, its against their TOS with you when you buy into azure, and its against their TOS with the various places who they sub-let their bandwidth from. a service that runs ON azure can collect all it wants... but the infra its self, noope

[carmine stirrup]

Agreed

[peak phoenix]

Yes. It'd end Azure.

[restive lion]

Sure would

[carmine stirrup]

I think that was just the word "data" having broad definitions

[shut lichen]

not talking about your user data in that way, just your network information, the traces of you going through the network at all

[fossil frost]

also, since various governments, including the us govt, run stuff on azure and aws... if MS/amazon was pulling data at the infrastructure level, it would be seen as... not a great time

[peak phoenix]

MS isn't digging in to your network traces or capturing network frames for later review.

[restive lion]

Doesn't really matter, they can't process that either, beyond processing it for what they literally have to do to get it to the client software

[carmine stirrup]

Agreed. Like, Amazon may not know what I'm watching on Netflix, but they know I'm watching Netflix

[restive lion]

Yeah so does google and every other broker that buys info lol

[fossil frost]

they know you are connected to an IP address associated with netflix, as long as you are connected to the netflix instances that are on aws, and with the amount of data moving over that connection, they could infer you are watching something, but they cant KNOW you are watching something

[peak phoenix]

Sure but Google is also tracking search terms, what link you did click, how long you were on that page etc

[restive lion]

I can assure you that the infra providers are not the ones selling that info (as infra providers, the end company using ad services built into the platform is a different question)

[carmine stirrup]

Of course they do

[peak phoenix]

It's why webpages are now so shitty. Want a recipe? Wonder why it's at the bottom of 15 pages telling the author's life story? Because you have to scroll down and that means more time on THEIR page so Google says "Oh you spent longer on this page that means better match"

[fossil frost]

they can infer it, but they cant see the data, they cant know you you are watching something, you COULD just have a bugged out client that is continuously requesting the catalogue list, would use up the same amount of bandwidth/data,

[shut lichen]

also means more sidebar ads

[carmine stirrup]

Why else would an Xfinity IP be transferring 3GB of data from an AWS instance owned by Netflix

[fossil frost]

they would be making an educated guess that would be correct most of the time... but because they cant be correct 100% of the time, they cant KNOW

[restive lion]

Yeah but that falls under the company choosing to use doubleclick or whatever

[shut lichen]

there's no other reason why, so it would be correct 100% of the time lol

[peak phoenix]

I'm unsure if AWS is looking at your IP and saying "3GB of transfer" and connecting that with the service you're connected to.

[carmine stirrup]

The packets are literally constructed differently

[fierce moth]

https://files.bruhs.xyz/upload/firefox_0FhKbZmABX.png
love pihole

[peak phoenix]

Other than for reasons of billing the service ofc

[restive lion]

I can think of like a dozen reasons off the top of my head lol

[peak phoenix]

I'll dork with it again when I finish setting up TrueNAS but...I was underwhelmed compared to just blocking ads locally.

[carmine stirrup]

I'd be shocked if they weren't.

[fossil frost]

log on to netflix and just leave it on the home screen, and then watch how much data it sucks down just showing the previews of everything on screen... are you actually sat there, watching something? no... the client is doing something, but you are not watching anything, but amazon would see your connection pulling a ton of data over the same connection

as i said... educated guess is the best they can do

[fierce moth]

you do need good ad-lists tbh

https://v.firebog.net/hosts/lists.php
id suggest this

[peak phoenix]

Speaking of...new SSD came in so time to reinstall TrueNAS. Second two 16TB drives come in tomorrow.Yay

[carmine stirrup]

Nice!

[tidal lotus]

bro i got 2 bit drive whats your gibberish

[indigo plume]

Wonder how switch 2 specs will be

[fossil frost]

higher than the existing switch, lower than you would want them to be though, in order to hit the lower price point that nintendo aim for to get their core market to buy the console

[indigo plume]

Heard rumors that it will be PS4 performance

[fossil frost]

nintendo's main demographic is kids and causal gamers, has been since the Wii at least... so they need to hit a price point that is far lower than the £500 that the ps5 and series x cost

[indigo plume]

Isn't that what the steam deck performance basicly is

[fossil frost]

tbh, steamdeck performance at £300/$300/EUR300, will do well

nintendo will need to undercut the steamdeck, otherwise they are just handing advertising chances to valve

[indigo plume]

I mean they still dominate handheld market

[fossil frost]

because of their price

[indigo plume]

So even if it's on par with steam deck

Think it will sell fine

[fossil frost]

the price needs to be lower than the steamdeck, with comparable performance

[indigo plume]

Most average consumers don't even know what a steam deck is

[fossil frost]

if nintendo hand the advertising chances of "its like a switch, but more powerful and cheaper" to valve... the average consumer will very quickly know what a steamdeck is

[indigo plume]

Like I can't count the amount of times ppl asked what console I have when I use it outside of my house

Cuz most ppl only really know the switch

[fossil frost]

it would only take a couple of clever advertising campaigns from valve to make the steamdeck a well known device

[indigo plume]

Valve doesn't have the same brand power Nintendo does

[fossil frost]

because they dont advertise outside of their core market.. if they chose to do that, they would create that brand power

nintendo didnt become nintendo by hiding in a corner, they did it through aggressive advertising

valve are hiding in a corner right now, and selling to people who they know will buy it anyway

[indigo plume]

The real question is will valve get more aggressive with advertisement

[fossil frost]

they will need to have more manufacturing capacity first... something which nintendo has plenty of... valve cant advertise, and then have nothing to sell... but they also cannot have 10x as many devices to sell, and have no way to sell them

valve will have to ramp up each, slowly, creating the demand, and then creating the supply, a bit at a time

[fallow matrix]

i agressivly punched my laptop screen over skyrim

help

[carmine stirrup]

You need a therapist

[fallow matrix]

yeah i know

i got anger issues

[carmine stirrup]

Seems like it

[fallow matrix]

also i hacked an indian scam call center that has annoyed me a lot

(very funny)

[fierce moth]

respect

[young finch]

damn message logging is good

[crystal mirage]

against the tos too

[fallow matrix]

bruh

it was for a good cause tho

so yeah no spam calls at 4 am

[dull granite]

:3

hiii

[dull granite]

good

[rich spear]

hi

[grizzled solar]

yikes

[topaz musk]

I think they have a pill for that....

[noble valley]

Just finished my all white build

How does it look?

[still olive]

Looks amazing.

[rich spear]

yijh

so amazing

[carmine stirrup]

GORGEOUS! I love me some white builds

My cooling tower is coming together 😄

Currently, only half of it is occupied, lots to do still 🙂

[strange elk]

Man that's.. A lot

Wait your CPUs are using AIOs

[fallow sundial]

[tepid jasper]

good other than the pcie cables

dunno whats goin on there

[tepid jasper]

wait im so jealous i want to run an external rad on my main workstation pc

[carmine stirrup]

they are currently, but not for long

I got the waterblocks for the CPUs yesterday 😄

[strange elk]

Ahhhh ok I thought that seemed.. incredibly overkill

[carmine stirrup]

LOL

[carmine stirrup]

I'm building whole-room watercooling hooked up to my pool, so this cooling tower (which will have 5x 480mm rads) is the backup system/winter system.

[strange elk]

Ahhhh going the Linus route

[carmine stirrup]

yup! 😄

[strange elk]

Pretty badass >w<

You worried about maintenance?

[iron saddle]

which mode is the best?

https://gyazo.com/0f30e1bc3a969319b4199dea565bbe67

[carmine stirrup]

I'll get this computer waterblocked on a loop, then the next step will be to set up the manifold and then the PC will connect to the manifold and the cooling tower will also hook up to that 🙂

[carmine stirrup]

Of a massive watercooling system? I'm aware of the maintenance, not super worried about it though

[strange elk]

Fair enough

[still olive]

Pay people to do it

[carmine stirrup]

to maintain my custom whole room water cooling system?

[still olive]

Yeah

No to install it

[carmine stirrup]

I don't even understand what that would mean

why would I do that? building it is the fun part

[strange elk]

Meanwhile

[carmine stirrup]

lol

I mean... he's not wrong, but I don't want the heat in this room

[strange elk]

Meh. I think its dead for straight up cooling performance, but ofc hardline is still pretty hot, and there are albeit extremely niche use cases

[carmine stirrup]

I agree with that statement

[median idol]

Custom Watercooling for me is more of a hobby TBH

[carmine stirrup]

hardline/my scenario aside, I prefer AIO for aesthetics. I think it's also better for shipping so that there's not as much weight levering off the socket

[strange elk]

Also true, I got an NZXT kraken for at least the first reason, then I went ahead and put it in a HAF XB Evo so I dont see it anyway lmao

[carmine stirrup]

Totally

I actually like doing plumbing and doing a super clean job, this is kinda like that

I also found this!

[strange elk]

Damn that card only has a 70w tdp on the site

[carmine stirrup]

Yup, it runs with low juice

[strange elk]

Didn't think Nvidia made cards that efficient

[carmine stirrup]

though it can be shunt-modded to draw more power

As of a year ago it was the most efficient card in watts per frame

[random light]

Anyone know a company that does custom grip tape prints?

[carmine stirrup]

Woot! I just scored a 2080 for $165

[strange elk]

Damn

[random light]

I got a 980ti for 18gbp

[carmine stirrup]

That'll join my 2080Super in my folding server 😄

[strange elk]

I do want a card for tensorflow. Always wanted a self hosted personal assistant

[carmine stirrup]

true, this system could also run on-premise AI fairly well once it's all set up

[strange elk]

cough Jarvis cough

[carmine stirrup]

lol

[strange elk]

Hopefully that French AI model goes somewhere, preferably not the same way as GPT

[carmine stirrup]

Aaaand found a water block for it for $80

[still olive]

Mistral.ai actually looks pretty.good they only juat stopped.it.from being opensource but im pretty sure you can still get the older versions on there website

[strange elk]

Egh. Seems api based yeah..

[tribal vortex]

i need to create a project for my uni.
most people are going to be making a management system like libraryMS, AttendanceMS
can anyone suggest me some ideas

[polar fern]

Ms?

[tribal vortex]

management system

[polar fern]

Why don’t you ask some of your classmates or your instructor for ideas as a first step?

[tribal vortex]

they're not much of a help
classmates are not much of a helpers they are the who needs help
and as for instructors they will just review and not provide help for developing

[craggy rose]

You can do something different?

That doesn't include MS?

[tribal vortex]

yes

[craggy rose]

Hmmmm

Ideas

[tribal vortex]

but i have no ideas
i'm just a beginner

[craggy rose]

Well, are you familiar with machine learning and things like that?

Oh

Beginner

[tribal vortex]

not too much
someone suggested to do natural language processing

[craggy rose]

Nah

Not creative enough

[tribal vortex]

i see

[craggy rose]

I wonder

Do you know those sorting algorithms?

Have you ever heard of them?

[tribal vortex]

can machine learning be done in like 2 months time

[craggy rose]

If you are a god in programing

[tribal vortex]

you mean like merge sort bubble sort??

[craggy rose]

Probably

[craggy rose]

Not exactly

[tribal vortex]

well definetly not a god

[craggy rose]

Well they sort pixels, some sort numbers

But, what you could do is, make a sorting algorithms that can take an image

Sort those pixels and use those same pixels to make another image

[tribal vortex]

that sounds nice

[craggy rose]

Yeeesss

And you could for example upload a portrait of a person and make a city with those pixels

[tribal vortex]

but i think it will be complicated

[craggy rose]

Will look rather interesting

[tribal vortex]

umm hmm

[craggy rose]

I mean

[tribal vortex]

the education in my country sucks so we have not been taught much
just the basics like java script, php, html &css, C,

[craggy rose]

You will just have to make a program that sort all the bright pixels and dark pixels, then make another that takes those pixels and put the closest value pixel that corresponds to the other image

And boom

[craggy rose]

Oh

Well

[tribal vortex]

can it be done in python

[craggy rose]

You could use html5 for animations, would look really nice

[craggy rose]

Maybe

I mean, it's just taking a pixel with a value and putting it in another image

Idk, just ideas

🤠

[tribal vortex]

yeah sounds simple
i'll give it a shot

[craggy rose]

😄

Nice

[craggy rose]

Just for reference, probably those image to ASCII programs would have somethings that you could use

Because it's already taking the values of an image and assigning ASCII Symbols to it

[strange elk]

Google is on my list of companies I hate now.

General dislike and distrust before

[craggy rose]

You could modify them to Instead of assigning an ASCII Symbol, assign a pixel to that value

[craggy rose]

Why is that

[strange elk]

Unable to use Spotify or Netflix without chrome

[craggy rose]

Because of the authentication?

[strange elk]

I refuse to use chrome especially because of recent changes

[strange elk]

Spotify specifically just skips 5 songs, plays some of the 6th and gives up after a few seconds, and reportedly it seems to be due to the Widevine drm implementation

bad enough I couldnt use Netflix in VR anymore once they stopped supporting Silverlight

[craggy rose]

Oh

[tired glade]

Can you stretch netflix window to full panoramic view in vr?

[craggy rose]

But why that happens only in chrome?

You could use Firefox

[strange elk]

I have been using firefox, thats the problem evidently

[craggy rose]

Oh

[strange elk]

I REFUSE to use chrome, FUCK chrome and FUCK google

[craggy rose]

I see

🐥

[strange elk]

[craggy rose]

The f word is ugly

[strange elk]

Tried an alternative app but spotify is prob even more broken

[craggy rose]

🫵

[strange elk]

The fuck word is one of my favorite words

[tired glade]

If you have suggestions for YouTube alternative,pls tell us

[craggy rose]

Newpipe's player is nice

[strange elk]

I just use youtube, idk man

Grayjay actually

[craggy rose]

Don't have ads

[fossil frost]

chrome is webkit, which is the same as safari, opera and edge. theres only firefox that is a different engine now

[strange elk]

https://grayjay.app/

[tired glade]

Like platform,not player

[strange elk]

For uploading? I mean theres not much competition

[tired glade]

For content consumption

[strange elk]

Did you even look at the site? Granted it is only on android

[craggy rose]

🐥

[tired glade]

It's just redirecting on my data

[strange elk]

Basic premise

[craggy rose]

Discord is dying

[tired glade]

There is extra load from something lately

[dense coral]

False

[craggy rose]

My mind is still on that, you could do it visually, sort all the pixels in a (10 by 300) collum [ just so that the program doesn't poop itself ] you do 2 Collums one for each image and just assign all those pixels to the places of the pixels on the other collum

And boom, optimizations 🤠

[tribal vortex]

i just rememberd sth
and i think that project cannot be done
one of the guidelines for the project is that we need to defensd our project

[craggy rose]

._

[tribal vortex]

it should hava like a real world application and

stuff

[craggy rose]

What a shame

[tribal vortex]

yeah it really sucks

[craggy rose]

Well

[tribal vortex]

that sounds intresting tho i'll still try it adter some time

[craggy rose]

Just do something that calculates the velocity on a object

[manic torrent]

Everything that can be done can be done in almost any language. Python particularly there are bazillions of libraries.

[craggy rose]

Put a camera on there, a background with some lines with known distances

Analyze the pixels and see how much time the object thrown takes to get to one line to another

Do some math and boom

now you have a way to automagically measure the velocity of an object

🤠

Real word application

[manic torrent]

.... With an error margin you can drive a bus through! But yeah.

[craggy rose]

Find criminals that are going too fast in the road

[craggy rose]

Yeah lol

I mean

You can do a practical thing with your professors

Just tell them to throw an object as hard as they can

[tribal vortex]

yeah but i don't think i can do that
i've not been trained enough😂

[craggy rose]

And boom now you have a competition to know who can throw faster

[craggy rose]

Oh

._.

Well idk

[manic torrent]

Use Yolo to detect people then pass it through to facial recognition and use a database of your classmates and make it so that it if it recognises a classmate it opens something

[craggy rose]

I'm gonna do the number 2 in the bathroom

Sya

[craggy rose]

Too boring

[manic torrent]

That's what I have on my door - if I look up at the camera it does facial recognition and opens the door

[craggy rose]

Everyone knows that trick

🐥

[solid oracle]

Smart

https://github.com/skrashevich/double-take

[strange elk]

Yeah just trying grayjay, so far super nice

[austere shale]

So question, I have a coworker who gives me anxiety working on robots, I’m teaching him how to work on the ones that I work on, and the only way I can describe it is you know when you introduce an infant to a dog and you say “pet gentle” and they proceed to full arm swing at said dog? Yea that’s what it’s like

How do I get him to be gentle

Because these are precise fit German engineered machines and I had to stop him moments before he was about to put a rotating sealing surface on a hard jaw vice

[craggy rose]

He doesn't seem qualified to be on that position

[craggy rose]

More training?

I mean, there isn't much that can be done

Aside from training

[austere shale]

It just sucks because there’s only the 2 of us, and I’m the only one that works on the wolverine robot, and we’re kinda behind, but I have to do my work, train him, but everything is taking 10 times longer because every time I turn around he’s approximately 1 femtosecond away from ruining something that costs hundreds if not thousands of dollars to replace

[tired glade]

At least start with safety briefing

[austere shale]

Or yesterday I was working on something away from my table and when I get in this morning I notice he had completely taken apart a rotate section of a robot that I had rebuild and was good, costing me at least 2 hours of time to reassemble

[craggy rose]

If he is causing you to get less productive

I would alert the supervisors

[rocky merlin]

lol, i am doing a full windows defender scan on a 16 year old pc, and instead of saying this could take a few minutes it says: this could take a couple hours

[austere shale]

Yea I’ve kind of told them that me training him is gonna slow me down but they want him to be able to know how to fix these so

[peak phoenix]

make concerns known. DOn't say "He's an idiot" but "I'm having a hard time guiding him, as an example he nearly marred machines surfaces and he risks being destructive while I'm away". If they keep saying proceed either you need a new employer or they can help.

[austere shale]

Kind of is what it is, but all I know is if they don’t throw more money at me during my review at the end of this month I’m leaving and am gonna watch the company sink from afar. I can fix a robot in about 3 days start to finish and the manufacturer is about 3 month lead time at the moment and we don’t have enough spare robots to cycle out as it is so a 3 month lead time would be absolutely devastating

[hidden hill]

RIP Meta servers

[craggy rose]

Zuckerberg keeps Stumbling on the wires

That's a crucial service at this point

[hearty spear]

the logon servers are probably tied together

[summer folio]

Just use SMS text messages gg ez

just tested on prod, its up in a jiffy

[harsh lantern]

Yeah was about to say that

i don't even get onto the website anymore

instagram is down too

[summer folio]

Instagram is meta

[harsh lantern]

yea ik

[mental raft]

Do you guys recieve my messages

[mental raft]

Nope

[harsh lantern]

How much does ridge wallet cost btw?

I got a metall wallet for cards in 2012, was like <20$.

[harsh quartz]

[summer folio]

I see.

[craggy rose]

Wow

Even discord is getting a little laggy

[summer folio]

YouTube startpage went down just for a while, no?

[mental raft]

Even PlayStore for me

[craggy rose]

It's that solar flare

[harsh quartz]

Cloudflare fucked up the internet again

[mental raft]

Lets see if something shows up here: https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/

[summer folio]

They should had bought ECC RAM, cheap server owning bastards.

[craggy rose]

Ha

Actually the danger is on the satellites

[summer folio]

Cloudflare is the new way of collecting Data, right? Google DNS have bad ceo for pravicy.

[craggy rose]

Internet Banking gets a massive hit if they get down

[summer folio]

Internet banking has anything to do with Satellites?

[craggy rose]

Well, I think it does

Everything kinda works with satellites

They help the bank to keep track of your location

Fraud detection takes place on that

[summer folio]

Internet banks does not need to know your GPS in Sweden at least.

[craggy rose]

Don't?

[summer folio]

Well, the Bank-ID app every citizen has asks for GPS, but you can click deny & it still works to log in?

I see what you mean tho, since it asks for your location access.

[craggy rose]

Wow

[lusty dirge]

Hahaha love it when websites go down

[craggy rose]

Time to hack 😎

[north hill]

So is it Cloudflare?

[lusty dirge]

Hahaahahah

[modest shore]

someone clear dns.... its always dns

[summer folio]

When something isn't working on the internetz, it's usualy Cloudflares fault.

[north hill]

Lol

[craggy rose]

I wonder how their fraud detection system works

Everyone there is nice so maybe it isn't even a thing

[lusty dirge]

We should all time to see how long it takes them to fix this lol

[summer folio]

Well, you got your 6 number password & your bank-id token that's downloaded to the phone.

[north hill]

Watch this be big enough for Kevin Fang to make a hilarious video

[craggy rose]

Simple

[lusty dirge]

Man this has got to suck for people that rely on social media lol

[craggy rose]

Elegant solution

[summer folio]

Anyone, anywhere can just do a Bank-ID log in request, on anyones SSN anytime tho, since Social Security Numbers are public information in Sweden.

Then if the person starts their Bank-ID app, they will have a quest from their bank to hit pin to log-in.

Technically you could "spoof" a log-in request, just before they are going to use their bank-id themself to log-in. & Get logged in as them.

[north hill]

Which is why I don't rely on it for family and local friends

Just use standard texting and calling

[lusty dirge]

I dont either haha

[harsh quartz]

No, when EVERYTHING stops working all at once on the internet, it’s usually cloudflare

[craggy rose]

Security numbers are public

Wow

[summer folio]

Yep. Sweden have a love for transparency, it since old.

[summer folio]

Usually, the fix is just to change DNS from 1.1.1.1 to something better. lul.

[harsh quartz]

8.8.8.8

[summer folio]

🕵🏻

[harsh quartz]

Best dns is 127.0.0.1

[summer folio]

Offentlighetsprincipen, aka Transparency for the government, all documents should be handed out to any citizens if asked for, is from 1766.

& Since the government handle Social Security Numbers, it's public information.

[slim mirage]

New face filters on Instagram today good job team

[dull granite]

nintendo is more evil than Blizzard or Activision or EA or whatever

[lusty dirge]

Yup i agree there

[dull granite]

ea is had cuz they greedy

[outer pollen]

not wrong

[craggy rose]

I like it

[lusty dirge]

I used to love Nintendo but not so much anymore

[craggy rose]

It certainly helps to not have a corrupt government

Or at least not as much corrupt

If you're mad at someone on IRC, it is stardard to order a 2 meter tall Ice statue to their homes front door with payment by invoice at delievery.

[craggy rose]

O_o

Bruah

Starting to love Sweden

[summer folio]

(You can only pay with invoice, if the deliviery adress is the same as the registered adress on the Social Security Number)

[summer folio]

Does!

Although it is not always 100% followed.

[craggy rose]

I mean, the public would notice it pretty easily

Like, " how can this guy have a 15 million house but there isn't any documentation "

Where did this money come from

Things like that

[summer folio]

Amelia Andersdotter, a former Swedish Pirate Party EU-parliamentarian, sent a request to the swedish police authority, for the national police chiefs cookies on his work computer.

[jaunty compass]

I found a refurb acer 516 chromebook with an i5 1240p and 8 gigs of ram for $270 on ebay, should i grab it?

you can put baremetal linux on it (which is what i plan on doing if i grab it)

[harsh quartz]

8gigs of ram, 4gigs of storage

[jaunty compass]

256 gigs of storage, and it's a m.2

and the display is 2560 x 1600

[harsh quartz]

….why

Can it even drive that panel?

[jaunty compass]

it's a 12th gen 12 core i5

so yes

for the price the specs are actually really good looking, the problem is chromeOS

[harsh quartz]

I don’t understand the idea of “powerful Chromebooks”

The whole point of chrome OS was to have something to run on ewaste

[calm swan]

linus anime tips

[fossil frost]

the point of chromeos was to get kids hooked on chromeos, so that when they start growing up, that is what they are used to, and that is what they want... and several years on from the huge uptake in chromeos usage, the devices are getting more powerful and more expensive to go with the relative ages of those who grew up with chromeos

its a long game by google

[calm swan]

pretty smart

[harsh quartz]

Yes but the problem with this gamble is that it’s shit

[jaunty compass]

it also lets them get all of your data

if you grew up on a chromebook and keep using them

[calm swan]

i mean kids arent running like premiere pro anyways

all it needs to do is play brain rot and minecraft

occasional schoolwork

till they get to like highschool

[harsh quartz]

ChromeOS is just bad, the ONLY good thing about it is how lightweight it is, which isn’t really an upside when your running it on high performance computers

[fossil frost]

when the majority of people want something that lets you browse the web and send emails, and maybe do homework at school... its a pretty solid gamble

[fossil frost]

thats your opinion, based on how you use a computer, not based on how the general public use computers

[harsh quartz]

And it’s fine for that, but again, that doesn’t need a powerful pc

[fossil frost]

and you dont need a powerful phone to make phonecalls.. but people like to run more resource intensive apps on their phones, like games.. and people are going to want to start to do the same on chromeos too

[harsh quartz]

But if they already have the powerful hardware, windows is just the better option

[outer pollen]

oh no

[fossil frost]

for what you do with your computer, an OS you have never used before is by far the better option.. why dont you switch to something you dont know, are not used to, and would take time out of your life to learn how to switch over?

[jaunty compass]

I could flash linux onto it, so i'm considering it

[fossil frost]

ohh yeah, for all those reasons... people use what they are used to

[jaunty compass]

for a machine with 12 cores and decent integrated graphics and a really good screen... honestly i'm considering it

[calm swan]

w deal if you flash linux

[jaunty compass]

the problem is only 8 gigs of ram

the ram is lpddr4x so it's not upgradable

[harsh quartz]

Okay, so then they hamstring themselves. If they’re spending that much money investing in a powerful pc then they should be willing to invest a little time to get the best use out of it

[fossil frost]

for what i do, a linux based os, probably ubuntu based, would be a much more productive option for me, but i grew up with windows, i have always used windows, i am used to how it works and all its peculiarities... im not used to how other things work... so i use what i am used to... because its more efficient for me to use a less efficient tool, because im more efficient at using that tool, than i am at using the better tool

efficiency isnt just about the tool its self, its about how well you are able to use it

and tbh, you sound like you are saying "i dont like chromeos, so nobody else should be allowed to like it".. people like what they like, just leave them to it

[harsh quartz]

But windows doesnt hamper you and you still have the ability to do everything you need to. In regards to buying powerful pc hardware, chromeos will hamper you, you will not be able to get full use out of it is my point

[harsh quartz]

If you think this is what I’m saying then you aren’t paying attention in the slightest

[vapid smelt]

It already has Linux

[harsh quartz]

I also already clearly stated I enjoyed using chromeos when I was on a budget, and you ignored that

[fossil frost]

where? i didnt ignore it, i didnt see it

[graceful burrow]

chromeos is baller tbh
if you just need a web browser you cant get it simpler

[calm swan]

oh yeah crostini

[harsh quartz]

Nope, I take the L on that one, I never sent that, my bad

[calm swan]

for really young people and old people chromebooks are probably the way to go

[graceful burrow]

ive almost installed chromeos to my lightweight laptop a few times just because it would run better than even linux does

[harsh quartz]

So just an fyi, I used chromeOS in college and quite enjoyed it, but it had to be on a budget for me to justify using it

[calm swan]

super simple to setup and update

[summer folio]

They had a Kinesis Advantage keyboard in short circuit today!

The lack of superior Dvorak layout in the review is disappointing non the least, I mean, pretty sure they can even come prefigured as such...

instead James show cases garbage qwerty layout?

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, and I never said otherwise, I just don’t understand 1000$ Chromebooks with i7s and shit

[fossil frost]

also... FYI, google have a practically unlimited market research budget... you think google have just blindly walked into this as a gamble? or do you think they have poured a fuck ton of money into research, and have come to a conclusion that they expect things to go their way? if they didnt think this plan would work, chromeos wouldnt exist

[graceful burrow]

oh yeah those are dumb kek

[calm swan]

i doubt anybody is buying that

[graceful burrow]

just get a chromebook with a low to mid end cpu
lower on the mid end
like four cores no ht kek

[harsh quartz]

But it exists was my point. ChromeOS is great for low end users, web browsing, and people on a budget, like schools, but I will never understand powerful Chromebooks

[fossil frost]

is anybody buying such an overkill machine though? or is it a paper product that doesnt actually exist, and is only there to make the $500 machines look like an even better value

[vapid smelt]

Framework

[harsh quartz]

Even 500$ for a Chromebook seems high to me, I think of Chromebooks as like 150$-300$ machines

[harsh quartz]

Frameworks only L

[lilac bear]

Framework is terrible

[gilded quest]

Business grade chromebooks are a thing

[hot tartan]

I feel like that’s just baby’s first MacBook

Do you need a backpack?

if you want a premium backpack then sure

[tired glade]

Are you fine paying 350$?

[young temple]

Wasn’t it 250?

[tired glade]

Yea, it's 249.99

[young temple]

It looks durable but I agree , gonna do some odd jobs during the summer and see how much money I end up with

[tired glade]

28.575 x 39.37 x 3.175cm

[young temple]

That’s big

[tired glade]

It's pretty big, don't forget that

[left venture]

350 for a backpack wat???

[tired glade]

250

[young temple]

And it comes with a lifetime warranty

[tired glade]

If you need that

[left venture]

does that come with like an ounce of the white powder or smthn 💀

[young temple]

If I get enough money then maybe

[left venture]

250 is crazy

[tired glade]

It's kinda avg for what it is

[left venture]

^fr

[young temple]

Ur right

[left venture]

i mean their merch is pretty expensive

[young temple]

Any alternatives

[left venture]

even the screwdriver is like 70 bucks

[young temple]

69*

Nvm the backpack warranty doesn’t cover wear and tear,rips, and cosmetic damage, pretty bad for a lifetime warranty

[fickle jolt]

Not my PC But wow!

[young temple]

Mom I swear it’s for homework

[fickle jolt]

Im doing a all black one with no RGB 😉

[young temple]

I wanna do a similar thing but white with only icy blue rgb, the entire setup will be 2300

Monitor, mouse and ultra wide monitor included

[fickle jolt]

Oooo

I like minamilistic looks

[young temple]

I plan on running 1440p high settings

[left venture]

for 2300 bucks u should be running epic

[fickle jolt]

I have a 7800X3D at the moment

1660TI while i wait for my 4090

[young temple]

A 7600 and 7800xt can do that(I genuinely thought it couldn’t ty)

[left venture]

idk how much of that is gonna be the pc only, so imma assume like 1700 u can do a lot better like a 4070 ti or something

[fickle jolt]

can the 4070ti hit 4k?

[young temple]

The 4070ti don’t like overpriced gpus

[left venture]

yeah

[fickle jolt]

what fps

[left venture]

its 699 and its way better than the 7800xt

[left venture]

idk like over 60

the ps5 is like a 2070

gpu

[young temple]

For 600 I want a solid 100

[young temple]

ITS 700 DOLLARS, HELL NAW

[left venture]

used to be 800

[fickle jolt]

Or i might get a 4070ti until 50 series

[left venture]

the cheapest one is 699

[fickle jolt]

card that can still hit 4K 60FPS+

[young temple]

The 7800xt is only 500

[left venture]

meh still worse than 4070ti

theyre close

[young temple]

Nvidia fanboy detected

Spend 700 on a gpu when you can get similar for 500

Anyways imma go now cyall

[fickle jolt]

4070TI or RX 7900 XTX?

[night heron]

phanteks nv7 spotted

[night heron]

7900xtx is the competitor for the 4080 super

[young temple]

I’m hyped for the 2500x

[night heron]

is that the new corsair case?

[young temple]

So what do we suggest the 7900 XTX or the 4080? Both the same price in the UK

[prime crest]

7900xtx for future proofness. 4080super for rt/productivity or just raw performance.

[fickle jolt]

Only keep me going until 50 series

so i can play 4k gaming til then

https://tenor.com/view/bread-loaf-gif-26074269

[manic torrent]

It's just ... stuff. objects. you know 😄

[neon mesa]

yea i've seen that analogy on online resources a lot like
animal class and dog objects but it just doesn't click how i would actually use it in real scenarios

it gets even more confusing when dealing with class relations as it's no longer just classes and objects

[manic torrent]

Fiona object of class User,
Fiona = User(name='fiona')
FionasStorage object of class ObjectStorage.
Fiona.storage = FionasStorage(backing='s3)

[neon mesa]

I get the simple parts
i just become lost when it reaches superclasses, subclasses

[manic torrent]

it's just a class that inherits everything

[neon mesa]

and i also have yet to see the benefits over regular old procedural programming, though i never actually wrote any big program

Reading google's course on kotlin classes and objects i can't wrap my head around it

[manic torrent]

here's a real world example

[neon mesa]

The further thing i can somewhat understand is up to the point of secondary constructors then i can't understand shit

[manic torrent]

So the credentials base is the base class with the core items - name, type, details and expiration

When you create a credential, you have all of those things, but you also need the credential.

The third class is the 'normal' return for credentials - but critically it DOESN'T include the actual credential

These objects are just models, the actual data is backed by a SQL database, but these models are used to interface it to an API

What this means is that the documentation is generated on the fly for those interfaces, and all the checking of types etc is magic

[neon mesa]

Yea i still can't click it yet, i have massive skill issue

[manic torrent]

An object is just a fancy way of saying a bunch of related information (and functions and stuff)

[neon mesa]

i'll need to, invest some time into proper OOP course after i finish DSA

hope i get that eureka moment where everything suddenly make sense

    expiration: ...

    def serialize(self):
        match self.type:
            case CredsType.Foo:
                d = {"name": self.name, "randomhardcodedvalue": "foo", "type": "Foo", ...}
            case CredsType.Bar:
                token = generate_bar_token(self)
                d = {"token": token}
        return json.dumps(d)

now, any credentials related code can call .serialize to get an accurate serialized model, without needing to import a helper function or anything (which doesnt really make sense, since the logic is solely related to the credentials code).
You have a base implementation of serialize, but you can modify that implementation in a specific subclass, and the code that calls serialize doesnt know (or need to know) that its using a different implementation. Say,

class ClientCredentials(CredentialsBase):
    client_id: int

    def serialize(self):
        match self.type:
            case CredsType.Foo:
                d = {"name": self.name, "randomhardcodedvalue": "foo", "type": "Foo", ...}
            case CredsType.Bar:
                token = generate_client_token(self)
                d = {"token": token}
        return json.dumps(d)

theres a subtle difference here, that only applies to ClientCredentials, but any other method on CredentialsBase would remain exactly the same (eg if there was a deserialize function, it wouldnt need changing since it doesnt generate any tokens). The object the same way as CredentialsBase, with an extra data point, and returns a different kind of token.

this is even more confusing

[restive lion]

ok well idk if you've ever used the discord API, but Users are the base of a user (what you would get in dms and anywhere not within a server), and then a Member contains User information, but also has more information because its tied to a specific server.

so you can think of it like that

[neon mesa]

I'm still a CS undergrad, my biggest project is just a simple 3-page static website with JS swup and a simple flask-SQL database site so i never even touched discord related stuff

though right now i think i'm learning too far beyond my actual skill level and re-learning the fundamentals, currently focusing on DSA

then i'll take a course on OOP

[fossil frost]

i never took any courses at all. ive been self taught from the age of about 12. and have now been a professional dev for 22 years... quickest way to learn more, quickest way to learn faster, quickest way to make it all stick.... come up with a personal project of some sort, and just do it, start the project... its like learning a language, you need to use it outside of a class room to actually learn it

[neon mesa]

i've been doing those too

it's just that i wanna have the fundamentals really stick

[fossil frost]

textbook fundamentals are not the fundamentals you will end up using in the workplace

[lapis solstice]

Don't fall into tutorial hell

[fossil frost]

textbooks are not the reality of what happens in business

[neon mesa]

i'm not following those tutorials
i'm wanting to understand the concepts itself

[fossil frost]

when you are constrained by business rules, many rules you learned from textbooks, go out of the window

[restive lion]

Yeah you'll learn way faster and way better by just doing it yourself and asking people along the way

[neon mesa]

probably not necessary but, personally i can't accept something "just work"

i really wanna know why and how of it

[fossil frost]

then you are going to struggle, its very good to know how things work, but sometimes, you just have to accept that its magic and that is ok

right now, understanding "how programming works" is good... those are the basic underlaying things you DO need to know... but there are other things where its irrelevant

[neon mesa]

i'm only entering 2nd semester, i probably have plenty of times to it

[restive lion]

There's definitely a time and place for not exploring

[neon mesa]

yea i prob won't have to know how a certain library or module works

but right now i feel like i don't have the basics of it well understood

[restive lion]

That's how you end up deep in the weeds of the openssl rabbit hole

[manic torrent]

Yeah the models are actually for FastAPI so they are used to do a bunch of stuff, but the models are ezpz to write.

[restive lion]

I hate fastapi

Godawful lib tbh

[neon mesa]

woops accidentally pressed enter

[restive lion]

Doesn't help that the author proposes some of the worst things I've seen to the python forums lll

[manic torrent]

Haha, what do you hate about it. It's perfect for building actual APIs.

[fossil frost]

im gonna sit here and absorb the glory of not using python... 😄

[neon mesa]

for now i will finish DSA and OOP, then probably continue learning android development which i temporarily paused because i'm going back to the basics

[restive lion]

Well it's use of pydantic irks me, since pydantic is super slow compared to just about any other model lib

[fossil frost]

continue with your android stuff, because as you are learning stuff at school, you will be able to apply that later on that day, and have it sink in faster and harder

[restive lion]

Strongly suggest msgspec for models btw

Tbh the only things I liked about fastapi that starlette (the web framework it's built on) didn't offer me were its decorator routing and the OpenApi generation

[manic torrent]

I'm not changing now, I literally just finished making it work :p

[restive lion]

Fair enough

I got fed up with it after fighting it on accepting a header properly for a couple hours and proceeded to spend a month removing it entirely and switching to starlette lol

[manic torrent]

That said, the API layer is fairly thin and relatively easy to replace.

[restive lion]

Someone tried to argue me that with pydantics rust rewrite it'd be blazingly fast™️ but I went and ran some benchmarks and it was still the slowest of the bunch lol

Hard to beat other libs written natively in C

[manic torrent]

yes, but are you comparing meaningul numbers?

because 100% slower on a library that is .02% of a request is not exactly a big deal 🙂

What process would one go about to ROM a carrierlocked S23+?

Or idk, google

Hell I'm using wallpaper engine

[thin tulip]

I wanna overclock my phone. I wanna change the thermal target and push the Kryo Prime core to hopefully 4.2 GHz if I can. I know I prob would have to downclock some of the other cores to keep the powerdraw below 12 W.

[thin tulip]

Was thinking of changing the thermal target for the SOC package to 55C

[fossil frost]

if you dont know how to flash a new rom to your phone, you really shouldnt be messing with anything like that, and, i doubt you are

[bleak cypress]

A friend of mine purchased a Radeon Rx 580 8gh from a company called qthree on Amazon. I can't find anything out about the company of money anybody is familiar with it and are they legitimate. If it's okay to do please send me responses privately I don't want to clog the chat up. Tia

[fossil frost]

its usally best to kepe conversations IN chat, otherwise, nobody is going to DM you, because it seems suspicious that you are asking people to immediately go to DMs

[bleak cypress]

Okay 👍

[fossil frost]

and, most sellers on amazon are individual traders, your only indication of if they are legitimate, is if they have good or bad feedback/reviews on the platform

and, if it doesnt turn up, it doesnt matter, amazon has one of the best refund policies of anywhere

open a case "it didnt turn up" "ok, here is all of your money back and we will just withhold that money from the seller"

[bleak cypress]

I just know something is off about the card, no website to be found, pulling up 0 information. So I figured I would ask.

[fossil frost]

ive sold stuff through amazon in the past.. if you searched stuff on the business name i used, you wouldnt find a website or a registered business name

doesnt mean its not legitimate

[bleak cypress]

I'm going to try it in my system and try for more information on to try and help him

Thanks though. Appreciate it

[forest birch]

Anybody know what's the proper or best way to describe a protective case to put the cpu in? Thinking about swapping out 1800x into 5800x and don't have the box for 1800x anymore.

like the one that LTT uses to keep their cpu safe in the 3d print case

[strange elk]

Idk how that message got replied to but ok..

[strange elk]

Id probably ask the XDA Developer discord or search through their forums

[severe belfry]

Good morning everyone 🙂

[hearty spear]

AM4 CPU Tray?

AM4 CPU Holder

[pliant karma]

I think just cpu tray holder but yea pretty much

[hearty spear]

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3788117

[hearty spear]

well, by specifying the CPU socket, you get one that fits right. All CPUs are different dimensions

(And a PGA Holder will need to be different than LGA)

[pliant karma]

The design ltt specifically uses is not publicly available, but I saw some people on the forums have the file when Colin sent it to them albeit they can't share it.

[hearty spear]

I doubt most people need to hold the quantity of CPUs that LTT does lol

[pliant karma]

lol yea

[full salmon]

is there a reason why yday my monitor said no display but today when i turnt on my pc its now working? anyone know a erason as to why this is?

[pliant karma]

all my cpus are so old I am like piece of soft foam and cardboard box

stored on a shelf where I do not see them

[hearty spear]

the ryzen 1800 he mentioned is pretty damned old lol

[pliant karma]

oldest most recent cpu I have is a 2700x but I sold that to my cousin recently

Thanks for the answer about the cpu holder btw.

Yeah it is but it doesn’t actually like it sometimes

Given how good it is for most task and even games but it’s a bad match for my rtx 3080, barely any uplifts from Gtx 1070.

Yeah, and quite a few of the android OS’s being sent with phones are similarly uncustomizable, at least IOS simply works
