about 10% of the shorts is see is stuff i actually want to see, the other 90% would belong on a different site... 😄

trying to clear all them out... because... dont need that

[harsh quartz]

Yeah I made it through that wave a while back

[fossil frost]

tbh, i do like having random videos thrown in every so often... but not those videos.. i started watching those behind the scenes/podcast style westling/wrestler videos, because they are super interesting, and its all the older westlers who were in their prime when i watched it as a kid

makes me want to start watching it again sometimes 😄

#public-chat Hi. I'm new to the server

Tell Microsoft and Google that

[lilac bear]

ASUS Android probably one of the best skins

[remote sedge]

hi

[ripe panther]

hi

[ionic abyss]

no one ever told me if i got a good buy on the 500gb wd blue m.2 for $5

[covert forge]

its very cheap for a 500g ssd

[fossil frost]

wd blue are the cheapest cheapo SSDs, but, they are still WD and still have the WD warranty

[covert forge]

usually theyre 30 or 40

[ionic abyss]

i got 2 for $5 off the clearance rack at my walmart

5 each

[covert forge]

cheap

[ionic abyss]

cheap is good

[fossil frost]

cheap can be good, but cheap can also be dogshit

[ionic abyss]

now if i can find a cheap 4070ti super

[fossil frost]

cheap wd blue are good... cheap no-name ssds, are probably dogshit

[ionic abyss]

its just a wd blue m.2

[fossil frost]

my son has the 2tb wd blue as his games drive in his pc

[covert forge]

walmart does have a reputation for bargains on gpus

someone found a 700 dollar 4080

[mystic tangle]

damn walmart still has older cards like 5700xt

i see one for 270

[covert forge]

really?

[mystic tangle]

oh its open box

[covert forge]

idk if its worth it

a new 3060 costs about the same

or a 4060

[mystic tangle]

yeah it was just surprising

I also see a brand new 1050ti for 73usd

and another one for 60, damn i never thorught i would see these GPUs brand new again lol

[covert forge]

thats actually not bad

1050 tis are available new but they usually are like 150

[mystic tangle]

I see an RX 6600 for 189, that doesnt seem bad

I wish i hadnt overspent in 2020 for my 3060ti

[covert forge]

yea everyone did lol

they were like 700 bucks

cause of scalpers

[mystic tangle]

lol i found a 1060 for 120, I havent seen 1060s for sale in years

[covert forge]

damn

havent seen one since 2018

[mystic tangle]

10 series of GPU were legendary

oh hey an RTX 2080 for 322, never thought I would see the day lol

I see decent deals, i dont see any "amazing" deals as of right now but I do see some GPUs I hadnt seen in years. Although I wouldnt be surprised if some of them labeled as "new" are actually open box

[copper sun]

anyone know of a good L shaped desk thats not giant

[mystic tangle]

measurements would be nice

[copper sun]

im looking at about 4ft on the short side and 6ish on the long side but could go a little longer

[fossil frost]

yep, bunch of 3x2, and some kitchen worktop. that with some screws and a saw will give you an exactly perfect desk

[copper sun]

well im limited in space so building one wouldnt be the best option for me

[fossil frost]

limited space means building is the best option, you can build it to the exact dimensions

[copper sun]

you do make a solid point

[spice pine]

jfc the “do it yourself is the only way” bullshit is obnoxious

[fossil frost]

i didnt say it was the only way, i said its probably the best and cheapest way for constrained spaces

[covert forge]

i cant see that lol

[fossil frost]

you can buy any cheapo ikea desk that would roughly fit... ikea desks are also fine

[covert forge]

karlby top

[copper sun]

im just trying to buy a desk and save myself some hassel atm. i do plan on building my own custom desk in the future

[ionic abyss]

why ikea

why not make one yourself

[fossil frost]

cheap because mass produced and shared parts between products

[stoic beacon]

Read......

[ionic abyss]

or get a good solid oak exccutive desk

or maple

[mystic tangle]

whats with the pc community weird niche side of being obessed with building desks lol

[ionic abyss]

or walnut all are nice

[fossil frost]

if you want cheap, ikea is your friend. if you have the time/effort, build your own from kitchen stuff, if you want to throw money down the drain, buy a big ass office desk that wont fit in your space

[copper sun]

no idea. but i also understand. cuz building something of your own means nobody else has one. and you get that nice feeling of "i built this"

[ionic abyss]

that ikea crap wont last

[spice pine]

“i don’t understand why people don’t just learn woodworking and make their own desks”

[fossil frost]

mine is 4 years old so far, and is solid as a rock

[spice pine]

the same asinine bullshit behind “prebuilts are always bad”

[ionic abyss]

my excutive desk is 130 years old and looks great

[covert forge]

the woodwork one no, but the prebuilt one is true

[ionic abyss]

had to refinish it a few years back

[covert forge]

prebuilts are worse parts, for more money. theyre ass

even ishowspeed built his own pc and that guy doesnt know jackshit about pcs

[spice pine]

bullshit, labor has value and just because you can be assed to assemble one yourself doesn’t mean everyone wants to. some people are fine with paying more to have a preassembled full product.

[ionic abyss]

when a ikea desk last 130 years call me

[covert forge]

yeah so why pay for it? when even a 10 year old could do it. its a cope argument

[fossil frost]

false... for the same money, you get lesser parts, because you are paying for labour and warranty.. for the same parts, its slightly more expensive because you are paying for labour and warranty... but in exchange for the extra money... you get it built for you, and a warranty if anything goes wrong... which themselves are products

[copper sun]

oh my. i just wanted some recomendations on desks. not an argument

[covert forge]

yeah this ^^^^^

[mystic tangle]

bs, building your own pc is always the best option.... looks at my horrible cable management

[covert forge]

but the supposed warranty is kinda of misleading. cause when u build it, you still have warranty for each component

[fossil frost]

you are speaking as someone who has already done it, and can do it... 100% confirmation bias... many people cant, and wont, because they just dont have that way of thinking

[spice pine]

you’re making a bullshit non-argument against me and i’m not engaging with it

[covert forge]

oh no i can but never done it. got it given by someone

[ionic abyss]

you looking for a adjustable desk or a gaming desk

[fossil frost]

prebuilds 100% have their place, just because YOU dont use them, doesnt mean your experience is the same as everyone else

[covert forge]

why would it be against u

[copper sun]

gaming desk preferably. i wont be standing at it if thats what your asking

i dont need it to adjust up and down

[ionic abyss]

no under surface storage?

[spice pine]

because it was literally against what I just said? I know comprehension isn’t your strong suit considering you just defended my argument in the next message but cmon. Use your noggin.

[copper sun]

i would like a little space for at least my pc

[fossil frost]

so gaming desk is gonna cost twice as much as the same desk that doesnt have the word "gaming" in front of it... because its "gaming"... but it would be the exact same desk

[mystic tangle]

personally I wish i would have gotten a "gaming" desk instead of a regular desk lol cuz they do have their perks

[copper sun]

well yeah. i dont need a "gaming" desk but thats what ill be doing mostly

[mystic tangle]

like the lightning, the cable managements, the cup holders, the nice carbon fiber texture surface

[fossil frost]

what you need is a surface, about 2ft from the ground... thats it...

[ionic abyss]

wow there a lots of nice gaming desks for under $100

[copper sun]

im just looking for something thats simple. maybe a spot underneath for my pc. and i can do my own cable managment

[harsh quartz]

You asked a very opinionated thing in a very opinionated chat, this is what you get

[ionic abyss]

well dont forget the ltt cable ties when doing that cable managment

[copper sun]

i would never forget them

i have a bunch in my drawer already

[ionic abyss]

and use that ltt screwdriver to assemble the desk

[harsh quartz]

Really good and cheap 6ft desk

[copper sun]

very funny

[harsh quartz]

It’s cheap, it’s good, it’s 6ft

[ionic abyss]

needs to be 6'

?

[copper sun]

cheap yes. good? idk about that

[harsh quartz]

When the last time you saw one of these fuckers break?

[copper sun]

i was looking for an L shaped desk preferably. 4ft on the short side. and 6ish ft on the long side

[ionic abyss]

walmart or amazon

many choices

[copper sun]

either would work

ill take a look

[harsh quartz]

Secret labs has desks

first one i saw that was 6'

[copper sun]

lemme give it a look

[covert forge]

what i meant was that it wasnt a personal dig or an argument against you, but about the prebuilts

[spice pine]

Yes. The point that I was making. I’m aware. Arguing “against me” would be more “my position in the argument” but I figured that would be obvious.

I got a new monitor

[dusky jacinth]

That's gonna be one biiiiig monitor. Lol.

[eager notch]

The power cord is unimpressed

[dusky jacinth]

It's an 8300 lumen projector made for auditoriums

It weighs like 60 lbs

The lens itself probably weighs about 5 lbs

[crisp notch]

picture looks brittish

[eager notch]

Linus inspired me with his massive video wall

And I was already planning on doing something like this because it's for theatrical projection

[graceful burrow]

Adapt it to a camera and get truly silly

[eager notch]

This 60 lb projector has a MASSIVE 1.024 MILLION pixels

[quasi belfry]

Mf really said -_-

[harsh quartz]

What’s the latency like?

[eager notch]

I bought a formerly $9,000-ish projector/lens that is just over 720p because it was cheap

[eager notch]

No idea, I bought it on eBay and the company sent me the wrong power cable and apparently nowhere around here has c19 power cables so I had to wait a couple of days for one to show up

[harsh quartz]

[eager notch]

Meh, I play like 99% of the time on my ROG ally anyway

[harsh quartz]

[covert cradle]

Idk if that's a joke, but 1MP is pretty small in the grand scheme of things lol. 1080p is over 2MP

Sorry, my expectations are bit low for a public discord server lmao.

[graceful burrow]

Keep em that low you can still apply those expectations here, trust me

[covert cradle]

In fairness this server has been better than most so far, but I've only been active here a couple days

[hot tartan]

lol

[graceful burrow]

As long as you can handle how heated it gets it's actually a pretty decent server
Tons of arguments happen here

[pure olive]

At least it’s active

[graceful burrow]

By here I mean the entire server

A lot of arguments happen in every chat lol

[eager notch]

people NEVER argue here

[polar fern]

Well, this is idiotic.

[eager notch]

I wanted to start an argument on arguing

Is this FB messenger?

[polar fern]

No, this is Patrick

Yes messenger

[eager notch]

I had that happen to me a few weeks ago, I had to enter the pin a couple of times and it hasn't asked since

[polar fern]

Yeah, the problem is if I go to access it on a computer there’s no way I’m going to remember

I just opted to have it tied to iCloud

[eager notch]

Set your pin to eleventy seven

[polar fern]

Nah

Makes no sense to have a pin for Facebook messenger

I don’t even use actual Facebook itself just messenger so having a pin just to use messenger is pretty stupid

[covert cradle]

The context behind it is very much not stupid. It's part of their transition to end to end encryption that still lets you keep chat history

I personally still wouldn't touch that shit with a 10-ft pole but this is a good thing lol

they would have to install wheel chair ramps and elevators since langley can only handel to go up 4 steps of stairs due to his old age

[vapid smelt]

im still shcoked that the lmg hq doesnt have a elevator

its not really a office you could do that in. Like they take up several units in the complex. Not every unit has an upstairs

Makes me miss the Macs I used in Highschool, with the 386 Card so you could run MacOS and DOS/3.11 at the same time.. so much fun playing Scorched Earth rather than typing class :p

[quasi belfry]

Why don’t we have these more common? Seems useful to have a cpu on a PCIe card (not with full expandable ram and such but you get the point)

[fierce tinsel]

Didn't Intel do a NUC on a PCIe card?

[quasi belfry]

Can I still buy it?

I currently have an rx6650xt and a i5 12400f, Im looking to upgrade my gpu what would be a good upgrade for abt $350 used

[lone shadow]

Because everyone was like oh its polished now it works fine and now this stupid garbage

Stupid fucking bloatware and crap ton of stupid fucking co pilot

Its 2:30am in the morning and I'm here Trying to recover photos of me and my family

[vapid smelt]

i would save up more it only looks like the rx 6750xt is an option for 350

[tawdry willow]

even in used territory?

[vapid smelt]

that is used

[tawdry willow]

Im seeing rx6750xts for $330 new

new egg

[lone shadow]

At this point wait for the 5000 series GPUs and then grab a 4080

Or a 3090 ti

[tawdry willow]

what do you guys think the max gpu i could go with an i5 12400f

[vapid smelt]

4090

[lone shadow]

A RTX 4090

[tawdry willow]

It wont bottleneck that?

[lone shadow]

No

[vapid smelt]

everything bottlenecks everything

[tawdry willow]

I always though if i wanted to upgrade to an 3080 i would need to get a new cpu

[lone shadow]

I mean why even go with a 12400f. Could have snagged a 13600k

[vapid smelt]

could get a 6800

[lone shadow]

Not worth it imo

[tawdry willow]

It was a year ago

I mean buy whatever you want. I'm still using a quadro k1100m 2gb from 2014 because it works

[crisp notch]

snes?

[fierce moth]

please promptly leave

if you are young enough to not know what a snes is

god help you

[crisp notch]

you mean snus?

[fierce moth]

🤦

literal child

[crisp notch]

nvm

[tame dust]

Anyone knows where can I learn about the context of this GIF?

[tame dust]

Thanks!

[indigo atlas]

There's some info and her name is also there as well

[twilit palm]

How do you justify to yourself buying expensive AAA games?

[pure olive]

Hug

[pure olive]

Gaseous fire

[indigo atlas]

hmm this game looks nice I will buy it

And possibly spending hours of my time playing it

[steep girder]

Where tf is android discord picture in picture

What a bunch of doghair

[quasi belfry]

No

Acorn

[steep girder]

The context is degeneracy

Irl he was getting read what he was found guilty of or getting formal arraignment or some sht

So he decided he could superman into judge from across the court

But bailiff had kryptonite

(baton and gun)

[idle nymph]

Fuck you coopa

[fossil frost]

nobody does, its full of french people

[idle nymph]

It was a misinput

[manic torrent]

I don't. I just buy them if I want them.

[fast parrot]

my headphones arrive tomorrow

Can't wait to check them

[quasi belfry]

Here’s earth (banana for scale)

[stray arrow]

Hey
Is it weird that i miss cortana?

[fast parrot]

No

If you mean as in not having it

if you mean as in wishing you had it again then I think yes

[stray arrow]

I just went back to visit windows 10
And I'll be honest, having cortana was pretty nice
It felt like i had someone to talk to

[fast parrot]

I don't know anyone who genuinely used cortana

[stray arrow]

I'll look for an alternative for anime waifu that will hang out on my pc

[stray arrow]

Same

[indigo atlas]

Probably, I haven't used it at all tho

[vapid smelt]

why do you have a picture with of my house and work?!

[manic torrent]

Lol, not mine

[quasi belfry]

When are we making a space probe with a R9 7950X3D?

[quasi belfry]

Wonder how good neurons would be at rendering

[silk ridge]

Is 84wpm 95 consistency good?

[neon mesa]

84 is still average among regular typist

though you are way above average for computer users as a whole

(Average for that is 35wpm, yea quite shit)

Personally my best is 125WPM with 98% accuracy
though many in this server achieve much higher speed

My avg is closer to 115 WPM though

[silk ridge]

yee i shoulnt be proud

[fast parrot]

my best is 136 wpm 100% accuracy on a membrane keyboard

but my average is around 115 wpm

my personal best on a mobile keyboard is about 100 wpm I think

just did a run on my phone I did 90 wpm at 98% accuracy

[strange verge]

you should be
don't compare yourself to others
try to compare the progress you made and where you started

[slow ridge]

I suggest that the admins make a voice channel so that members can share a live footage of them building a PC

[manic torrent]

Thanks for the suggestion, it will be considered with the appropriate amount of consideration.

[eternal hearth]

actual AAA games sure but these "AAA" shitty games? max at 5€

[fast parrot]

No

[slow ridge]

I hope they do, it'd be fun watching other people build their own PC's, chatting in the process and just having a grand ol time

[manic torrent]

Just building PCs 24/7?

[slow ridge]

It could be a voice channel where people can join and livestream themselves or watch other people from the LTT discord

Just to show how much we learned and how much Linus taught us

and the viewers can maybe learn by getting a "front-row seat" to building a PC, from scratch

[manic torrent]

Building a PC isn't really that hard though

[slow ridge]

well ust watch for fun then.
Who doesn't want building a pc while bonding with the boys

[hazy parrot]

Bruh. Anyone who’s done this more than like, once. Already has enough of it themselves

[manic torrent]

I am very old.

In order for building a PC to be fun for me I need it to be on a crane.

[slow ridge]

who knows, maybe some people just wanna share their 1st experience

[slow ridge]

how old are you, if I can ask?

[manic torrent]

43

[slow ridge]

oh dang

[manic torrent]

Loool.

[strange verge]

lmaoooo

[slow ridge]

I thought you were gonna say you were on your 30's or smth

are you serious??

[strange verge]

I am 26 and I feel young again

[slow ridge]

oh yeah I forgot

[dull granite]

Dave: Hal, open the pod door
HAL9000: I'm sorry, I can't assist you with that prompt. As a language model trained by OpenAI...

[slow ridge]

Im the only 16 year old here

I really wnat a good gaming PC. I wanna play some Red dead, and Helldivers 2

;-;

[strange verge]

I don't believe that's the case

[manic torrent]

The advantage of being old is I have more money and patience

[strange verge]

I also started out here at around 17 lmao

[slow ridge]

sheesh

[strange verge]

true true
being able to just buy parts is nice

[slow ridge]

nice set-up man! Are you sure you're really 50?

[strange verge]

I recently finished my build too!

[slow ridge]

cant wait to experience that

[manic torrent]

Lol I'm 43 how the hell did you get to 50 suddenly

[strange verge]

hahahah he really did you dirty there

[slow ridge]

oh eyah sorry

[slow ridge]

nice set up too

[slow ridge]

I really do apologize hahahha

[strange verge]

looking clean

[manic torrent]

I really need to move that right monitor arm over on the cross bar

[strange verge]

I plan on switching to 1440p
been on 1080p since I was playing competitively but my reflexes aren't the same anymore

[manic torrent]

The cable management there is dog shit, but I'm slowly getting it back to reasonable. Building the custom covers the floor cable channel

[slow ridge]

you guys havve such nice setups or as the kids in my place say:
"Its very aesthetic"

[strange verge]

I bought a huge ass cable canal for my desk and it's been a live saver

[manic torrent]

https://youtu.be/7Ey0ElrVMn8?si=WD4yW6HYOsOKf-AM

[strange verge]

it's height adjustable so I had to do it this way

[manic torrent]

That isn't huge enough for me 🙂

[strange verge]

you will get there man just focus on school/uni or start a side hustle

[slow ridge]

look at that spaghett

[strange verge]

now is the best time for you to learn skills
you won't have much time later in your life so use it
I regret to not have been doing more projects and learning more things now

[strange verge]

what is all of that

[manic torrent]

Haha that's bullshit. I mean absolutely learn stuff.

[strange verge]

and why does it look like a fire hazard hahahaa

[strange verge]

sorry I meant as in you won't have as much time later to learn skills

[manic torrent]

Lots of stuff needs lots.of cables. Sound, video, USB, networking

[slow ridge]

well I wanna learn building PC's, get commissions building other people's computer later in life

[manic torrent]

I literally learn every single day.

[strange verge]

that sounds good!
I did that for a while too

[manic torrent]

I decided I wanted to learn more Arduino so I started a project to build a custom dash cluster for my car. 3 versions later and I know what I'm doing 😄

[strange verge]

okay let me say it a different way
because of your job most of your time will be dedicated to a specific field
when you are young you can easily explore different fields and get into as much detail as you want
later in life you will get more responsibilities which you need to dedicate time to

[manic torrent]

I built a goddamn crane.

[strange verge]

same here
got a 3d printer and I already had some arduino knowledge and built a few things
but it took way longer than when I was 17 for example where I had pretty much unlimited time to work on stuff like that

but experiences vary
I am just talking about what I feel like has been happening with transition from uni to work life

[manic torrent]

Yeah you have huuuuuuuge amounts of free time as a young person.

But the idea that you can't learn and do new stuff as an older person is ridiculous.

[fierce moth]

eh, idc abt looks
all abt functionality ngl

[slow ridge]

well... debatable

we have research to think about now

[strange verge]

no that's not what I was trying to say
I just tried to explain that
a lot of free time = learning a lot of things
less free time = limited by time of what you can learn

[strange verge]

I used to be like that but I became a sucker for aesthatics

[manic torrent]

It isn't. Lol.

I have a full time job and a young son, kek.

[fierce moth]

also like to go by the motto, "if it aint broke dont fix it"

[slow ridge]

our curriculum doesnt allow for a huge free time

[fierce moth]

except when it comes to modding consoles lmao

[strange verge]

I don't even have a kid and barely have time

but I don't want to give up going to the gym

[manic torrent]

And I like to go for "if it ain't broken, fix it til it is!"

[strange verge]

this is how my last arduino project went lmao

[slow ridge]

i think it's called optimizing

[fierce moth]

speaking of fixing things, i gotta get a new gba reproduction mobo cause i botched a repair job

[manic torrent]

Like this RC speedboat that barely has any original parts

[fierce moth]

long story short, i ripped off one of the fuse pads

so rip

[strange verge]

yikes

[fierce moth]

mixed with not enough flux and smd shit

[strange verge]

maybe you could bridge it with a copper wire?

[slow ridge]

your consoles focused yes?

[silk ridge]

who knows their Monitors

[fierce moth]

hmm?

[fierce moth]

nah the fuse pad is clean off

[manic torrent]

https://dontasktoask.com/

[fierce moth]

nothin left

[slow ridge]

you focus on consoles? Gameboy, gamecube, xbox, playstation, dreamcast?

[fierce moth]

yeah

[strange verge]

LMAO

[slow ridge]

facinating

[fierce moth]

im kinda the retro modder around here

[slow ridge]

I have a 1080p 1366x768 screen for my windows 7 laptop

[slow ridge]

noice

[strange verge]

also small tip at your age you can get into older nintendo consoles / games and flip them for easy money
just check your local marketplaceses and try to understand the value of things
that's what I did for a while at your age

[manic torrent]

Is it 1080 or 1366, because those are different

[silk ridge]

LG 27GP750-B or the ViewSonic G2431

didnt mean to tag u sorry

[slow ridge]

1366

[manic torrent]

Do they have reviews at rtings?

[fierce moth]

+1 for rtings

[random jungle]

hey guys davinci resolve is lagging in M1 chips

any tips?

[manic torrent]

Get an m3

[random jungle]

bruhh

[slow ridge]

true hahahha just update your system

[fast parrot]

my old tv is 1366x768 yet is capable of 1080p over hdmi

[random jungle]

real

[slow ridge]

I oncle connected my windows 7 to a samsung montor which was 4k if Im correct

[fossil frost]

it can accept 1080p in.. but its not 1080p.. the tv can accept 1080p input but would then downscale it to 768p

[silk ridge]

idk rtings

[manic torrent]

It is capable of 1080 input, not display.

[fast parrot]

That's what I meant

[manic torrent]

Use the power of search

[manic torrent]

Also it must be very old, because that stuff hasn't been widely available for ages.

[fast parrot]

It is old, from like 2011 I think

[austere shale]

This LED board is $230 and I hate it

For reference I reverse engineered it and have a quote from a pcb manufacturer to make and assemble them for $20 a piece

Unrelated but absolutely massive W for twitch, I’ve been boycotting twitch since all the glorified cam girls took over what was once a respectable video game streaming site, now hopefully I’ll actually be able to watch it if they hold true to their word

[tired glade]

Oh, another crack down on twitch

[tired glade]

Oh,not twitch viewer in online community, those are rare

[austere shale]

Was a shit site, too many e-whores, nothing against them personally just go to a site like chaturbate where the audience isn’t primarily underage. Can’t tell you how many buttholes peaking around g-strings I’ve seen on twitch not even logged into an age verified account. Absolutely unacceptable

[tired glade]

Oh, right, those still on twitch,not on kick

[austere shale]

There’s still so many in twitch, I opened up the just chatting section just because I was curious and this was one of the first titles I saw “(18+) COLONOSCOPY CAM,TOS CHANGED LAST 24 HOURS”

And I wish I was lying

[tired glade]

I haven't seen them in a few years at this point

You really need to search for them

[austere shale]

I’m not logged in and it was one of the first 5 in just chatting

[tired glade]

Oh, just chatting

[lapis solstice]

Huh...that seems like a good plan

[fossil frost]

kick is gonna have a bad time when it becomes popular enough for the likes of disney to notice it.. because of the "watch party" section, where its all just illegal pirated broadcasts of movies

[austere shale]

Twitter is great in its pure unrefined form, every now and then I just like to throw a bit of my own unpopular opinions in some comment sections to stir the pot

[lapis solstice]

Yeah I'm gonna make a new account

[wraith sonnet]

The fact Amazon hasn't done anything for literal plagiarism is amazing.

[austere shale]

My favorite is Instagram. I’ve tried doing the whole “do not recommend this content” thing for weeks regarding a certain conflict in the middle-east ish. Now I just say things to get people all riled up since instagram didn’t listen to me that I didn’t want to see said content

[fossil frost]

because nobody has made amazon do anything yet... amazon will keep taking their money until someone like disney tells amazon to "stop taking their money, or we will take YOUR money"

[wraith sonnet]

Also longtime no see bizzeh

[fossil frost]

you dont fuck with the mouse 🙂

[wraith sonnet]

Do you mean the duck?

Kekw

[fossil frost]

Mickey will come for you

[wraith sonnet]

Have you not seen that Disney is pivoting branding towards Donald Duck?

[austere shale]

Don’t fuck the mouse

https://tenor.com/view/rock-one-eyebrow-raised-rock-staring-the-rock-gif-22113367

[fossil frost]

doesnt surprise me since early mickey is now public domain, but, any re-use of early mickey, like remasters, are still covered. and any mickey basec creations that are not those originals, are also still covered

[wraith sonnet]

We have decided to change our branding because our lawyers are too confused at what the law we've lobbied away means

[fossil frost]

also, early mickey is no longer copyrighted.. so you can create your own stories with that image.. but.. Mickey Mouse is still trademarked, so you cant refer to Mickey Mouse in any of it

Michael the Small Rodent would be fine though

[austere shale]

Michael mouse

Fuck, beat me to it

[wraith sonnet]

I would rather Disney pivot to something way more modern for branding, like WALL-E

Little dystopian for Disney but I'm sure their artists could make it work

[fossil frost]

also, while you can use the original mickey, you cant do anything that would confuse people into thinking it came from, or is in any way associated with disney

[austere shale]

In a perfect world Disney would just dissolve but that’ll never happen

[fossil frost]

because they could fuck you up for false representation at that point

[gentle slate]

so I broke my Galaxy Buds FE wtihin an hour of using them

ANC and Ambient Sound no longer work

[wraith sonnet]

In a perfect world someone would challenge Dodge V Ford and fix everything wrong with modern capitalism

[fossil frost]

and the JLab ones that everyone told me not to buy for running, are still working fine, after me having had an impromptu swim in the river in them too

[gentle slate]

I drowned one of the microphones on the right earbud by readjusting it with a lightly moist hand

Verdict: get Galaxy Buds FE only if you live in a desert or never leave the house.

[austere shale]

In a perfect world Volkswagen would still be allowed to sell diesels and the world would be saved by cheap diesel electric hybrids instead of the pure fantasy that fully electric vehicles are

[fossil frost]

i ran all autumn, winter and spring in cheapo jlab ones, and jumped into a river to rescue a struggling dog

[gentle slate]

Tho I love how they sound tho. They actually sound really nice

ANC did a mighty fine job before it drowned too

Never expected such nice bass from something that fits in my ear

[fossil frost]

i run in mine, and use them almost exclusively for podcasts... so as long as they make sound, i dont care... my nice headphones i use at home are proper over ear headphones

[wraith sonnet]

When did this happen?

[austere shale]

My daily drivers are AirPods Pro 2 and at home I have a set of beyerdynamic 990 pros

[wraith sonnet]

I'm running beats studio buds (the clear ones) and SamsonSR850's

[steep girder]

Only hackers can type this:

[wraith sonnet]

I used to use the KPH30i-CL'S but the plastic is a little problematic where I live.

[austere shale]

Around 2015, look up diesel gate, TLDR Volkswagen cheated emissions on its diesel cars, (every manufacturer does it) but because they weren’t American Uncle Sam shafted them by not allowing them to sell diesels anymore. But right around that time Volkswagen was experimenting with the XL1 which was a diesel electric hybrid that got 280mpg, given it was a prototype but given how far batteries have come in recent years I don’t see why cars couldn’t be averaging 150mpg by now

Very sad, very unfortunate

[steep girder]

Boat?

[fossil frost]

Volkswagen can sell diesels... they still make millions of them... they just dont sell in the USA... 1 country stopped them from selling them... one...

[austere shale]

I never said they can’t sell diesels, just they can’t in the US

[fossil frost]

"American Uncle Sam shafted them by not allowing them to sell diesels anymore"

[steep girder]

Oof

[fossil frost]

"In a perfect world Volkswagen would still be allowed to sell diesels"

nowhere did you specify "in the USA"

[austere shale]

American Uncle Sam

If you can’t tell that I’m talking about America by that then I can’t help you

[steep girder]

All cars in Bulgaria diesel. F you climate tzar whoever tf the current unelect is

Engine lifespan lownge

EU literally ruining life

[austere shale]

I’m at just about 200k miles on my 2012 TDI, and I piss pound it every chance I get

[steep girder]

And happiness

Nice

[fossil frost]

you saying that engine lifespan is lower in diesels?

[steep girder]

Higher

[fossil frost]

ah ok.. good 🙂

[steep girder]

Lower rpm. So at least mechanical wear lowrt

lower*

[fossil frost]

lower rpm, higher torque, better mpg, lower emissions per mile, and since they are all turbo now too, faster... than the equivalent petrol car

[steep girder]

Oh yeah turbodiesel and youre set 👍

[austere shale]

Can confirm, I have a slightly better tune than a euro equivalent TDI and my big fat wagon is faster than stock US GTI’s and as fast as a stage 1

I also pulled a Tahoe out of a ditch with my TDI one time too, that was cool

Is it just me or pixel 8a doesn't make sense at all

They should just sell the vanilla 8 alongside 9 series like apple does

The pixel 8 is already sub 500 usd

[gentle slate]

Yall, exterior network speed is separate from home network speed right? Eg I can have 100/100 internet plan but at home I can do 10gbit speeds?

[gleaming ginkgo]

I even got mine for 560 2 months after launch

[night heron]

yah correct

[gentle slate]

And my dream NAS setup burns up since my ISP is shit and I get an ONT Router combo that I cannot change

[night heron]

you can have a 5 megabit wan connection and run 800 gigabit lan at home

[gentle slate]

I've already used up all ethernet ports

[night heron]

theyre not dependent on one another at all

[gentle slate]

ye it kinda clicked in my head. The internet speed would be what my ISP lets me use to access the world wide web.. And my connection goes through them. Meanwhile at home, it'd be like plugging in one PC to another with a USB cable.

Except its big data

[night heron]

if you just need to connect two computers at high speed then that's super cheap

[gentle slate]

Well it'd actually be 3.

Id like a NAS, then the 2 PCs. But I need a new ONT Router if I wanna do that.

Coz the one I have only has 2 ethernet ports

[night heron]

network switch my friend

[gentle slate]

Wouldnt that gutter the speed

[night heron]

10gb switches are pricey though

[night heron]

nah

[gentle slate]

I recall sharing a switch with me mums PC when I was 14. My PC basically got

half the speed.

Hellish times. Waiting for hours for games to download.

[graceful burrow]

Even a barely decent network switch shouldn't impact speed or latency in a notable way

[crystal flare]

Get this stuff, I use it all the time for work, it’s a red powder that turns bright neon radioactive comic book green when it’s in water

Biodegradable in sunlight, color disappears in a couple days

Doesn’t stain either

Insanely concentrated, 1 pound of the stuff will make 100,00 gallons of water the brightest neon green you’ve ever seen

So if you throw it in a pool to mess with somebody they’ll freak out, get all upset not knowing it’s gone in a couple days

not legal advice

That being said the extra vram from the 7900xt would be very nice

8bitdo made a c64 style mechanical keyboard

[glass lantern]

Like completely off topic but if you knock on the door of a toilet then there is no answer you try opening the door and you can't so you loudly knock a second time and there is still no answer and the try pretty vigorously to open the door are you insane for thinking the door is broken?

Because I did that and explained why I kept trying and they looked at me like I was insane.

When at least from my perspective it was silly of him not to answer

[fossil frost]

If someone knocks on the door, you answer in some way, so nobody tries the door. Even if it's as simple as "occupied"

The person in there doesn't have to shout "I'm half way through the second shit, and I've wiped twice so far"... So not replying is just rude

[indigo phoenix]

They might not be able to hear

Most people would generally assume the door is broken or locked, but the next course of action would be asking someone at the venue for clarification. Trying to force your way in is weird, yes.

[harsh quartz]

Take-two is acquiring gearbox, W

[harsh quartz]

Why put this much effort into opening a stall door anyways?

[graceful burrow]

damn why is take-two burdening themselves lol

[harsh quartz]

Might actually get a decent borderlands 4?

[graceful burrow]

https://tenor.com/view/jack-tanamen-gecky-incorporeal-gif-21102682

[harsh quartz]

The d&d games was decent, if they keep down that route we might get something good

And a decent publisher could help that

I’m aware of how much copium I took to say that though

[spice pine]

no amount of restructuring could ever fix gearbox

[graceful burrow]

not with randy there

[harsh quartz]

Randy the dude that sold out gearbox to epic for that exclusivity stuff?

[spice pine]

real

[graceful burrow]

randy the dude who lies about shit and kills beloved franchises

they're doing it to risk of rain next

rip ror

[spice pine]

and who also has some uh… less-than-savory allegations

[harsh quartz]

I’m still very hopeful with ror

[graceful burrow]

im not in the slightest

as soon as it left hopoo it was dead

[harsh quartz]

I think the fan base of ror will keep it from turning out like borderlands did

Borderlands had IP and a huge following to survive the hits, but ror doesn’t really have that, if it gets fucked up, it’s dead then and there

[graceful burrow]

yeah
that's why it's going to die kek

[harsh quartz]

They’ll probably be more careful after the BL3 fiasco, but maybe not, I’m just hopeful cause it’s 2 of my favorite game series

[harsh quartz]

Oh, I also didn’t know about those allegations, yeah, that’s more than a little rough

[graceful burrow]

gearbox does not be careful

they simply dont care

Na this is at work and I didn't force the door open and it was a colleague, after trying to vigorously open the door I was just about to say over the headset that the toilet door is broken and can I force it open just as someone said "wait a minute" and my reply was "I didn't think anyone was in there because I didn't get an answer to the knocking."

To me it's obvious you should answer someone knocking on the door even if it's just to knock back the same amount of times if you don't want to give your identity away.

[eternal hearth]

you didnt audibly ask if someone was there?

[glass lantern]

A lot of people don't like being talked to while they are on the toilet, so no.

[eternal hearth]

im sure the best way to make sure if someone is there is to just ask instead of coming through the door

[glass lantern]

And again I neither said I was going to force the door open, not actually did it.

[eternal hearth]

yes but "trying to vigorously open the door" scares the shit out of them

[glass lantern]

The fuck are you talking about I knocked first and then door wouldn't open. like I don't know where you are from but that is the standard way here to ask if someone is on the toilet rather than talking to them and potentially making them feel uncomfortable.

[eternal hearth]

im not saying you did

[glass lantern]

I knocked on the door first and waited like 5 seconds before trying to enter*

[tired glade]

Oh, Nvidia using ai cores for HDR now

[glass lantern]

Are you telling me that if someone knocked on a toilet you were using you would just sit there silently not only through someone knocking, but trying to open the door, then knocking again?

[eternal hearth]

no but you still dont see them so in this case they dont answer -> to make sure if there is someone ask audibly

your methods failed for that person so do better next time

[graceful burrow]

Honestly wouldn't put much stock into what this dude be sayin

[eternal hearth]

weird thing to be arguing about

[graceful burrow]

I agree why would you start lol

[glass lantern]

Yeh considering I'm 34 and have never had someone not answer in some way to 3 knocks on door the first time and that he himself admits that he wouldn't just sit there silently I'm gonna ignore the rest.

To be fair I started it.

[indigo phoenix]

Still the effort put into forcing it open is where it gets weird.

Everything else makes sense

[glass lantern]

No again I didn't try and force it open, for the third time... I tried giggling the door handle to see it was just stiff and pushed extra force than normal, but little enough definitely would not break the door.

Just in case the door and door frame were stiff

[crisp notch]

and drunk homeless people

[glass lantern]

And before trying to force the door open I would have shouted to make 100% sure and would have tried to finagle the door open for at least 5 minutes, got someone else to take a shot before actually trying.

When I'd battlmage coming out??

I hope it don't dsuck

[glass lantern]

No idea, and to be fair I don't think it's going to be that impressive either. Intel just doesn't have the money to dump in that they once did so I'm not expecting it to be impressive... maybe if they had spent all the money they spent on acquiring stupid s$%& when they were rolling in money on GPU development Intel would be ruling the GPU market by now.

Like really it was a stupid amount of money they p***ed up the wall.

Like maybe Intel has a Zen moment where they got the Jin Keller of GPUs who can organize a team and gives them enough freedom to actually lead the team rather than bogging them down in bureaucracy so they can get s*** done on a relative shoe string budget, but like I don't see that person, nor do I believe they would not bog them down in the bureaucracy inside.

dude this isnt a mod matter kek

mods arent lmg staff

[harsh quartz]

I thought dude was calling mods on his own post asking it to be taken down :p

[graceful burrow]

same kek

then it clicked

[cerulean saffron]

You can run firefox beta with your own "extension pack" and add all adblockers you want... Works just like Desktop if you use "enable desktop site"

A bit annoying to navigate by pinching to zoom with the (horizontal-optimized) desktop layout in a phone's vertical screen

but far far less annoying than those ads, and much easier than trying app mods (also less risky than app mods)

plus you get linux desktop like features like background playback with desktop site + adblock 😄

[reef wharf]

mmmmm, the rules would not agree with that, but good to know for future, thanks

[graceful burrow]

where in the rules does it say mods are lmg staff

i'd love to see that lmao

[harsh quartz]

Lmg staff make a point of not being mods cause they don’t wanna deal with shit

[graceful burrow]

yeah, this shit

[tired glade]

Wait, background playback isn't normal around all browser?

[grave nacelle]

I looked up how water damages motherboards. Something bout electrolysis.

[jaunty compass]

in other news, I hope battlemage is good

i'd love to pick one up for my spare system to play with

[grave nacelle]

Why dont we electroplate solder with gold? Would it prevent solder oxidation & prevent them from getting brittle?

Would goldplating motherboard. Make it further water resistant?

Guys I have a noob question
bought a laptop that has a 512gb ssd
came with windows

want to get a 2tb ssd
was wondering wht is the process of duplicating my current ssd completely into new ssd
like dont want to install windows and all
and if i do need to install windows will i be able to get windows key out from current one

[brazen vine]

Hello

[lilac bear]

I love the "can someone just do it all for me" begging in between the lines

I just do a fresh install of Windows, it will know what key the laptop uses and if it is yours or not

Hey everyone, question, If I throw 64 gb of ram into my M18 Alienware, the speed drops from 5600 to 5200 per channel. Will It be noticeable or no. I mainly game on the PS5 but as far as everyday task I can saturate ram pretty quick.

Yo what chat do I use for help with tech?

[gilded quest]

Tech chat 1 if you want your issue to be ignored
Tech chat 2 if you want the potential of an answer
Best option: make a post in #1027757333117415424 then post a link to it in tech chat 2 asking for help. That way all the information is readily available

Yea your right, I use multiple desktops to switch from my work with all those tabs and programs to my school , then to my normal news and sports sites on get on with discord and battle net running on another. That probably is wrong but it helps keep a little orginization going at least in my head

Is anyone familiar with book authors that have a series on how computer components work on the lowest level

I would like to understand how each component works together, from the lowest level you can possibly go and maybe even build my own computer component from scratch after the book

I also want to gain a deep understanding

[undone cape]

Does it provide a deep understanding of the technical aspects?

[harsh quartz]

Oh, probably not, maybe this one instead?

i got a new server, decided to bench it with CB before swapping it out

[undone cape]

From the looks of it, it just shows electronics

Like the innerworkings of each component. For example the CPU: ALU, registers, the pipelining, multithreading, and whatever other stuff. That should be the level of depth

I know a bit, but just want to know more yk?

and a slight whooshing noise was heard

[pliant karma]

huh been a while since I saw that case lol

32gb should be plenty for that

[manic torrent]

The lowest level you can possibly go is understanding how electrons work and how they interact. The lowest level is very low

[pliant karma]

[teal estuary]

its not a book, but Ben Eater has YT videos on building a CPU, GPU, and 6502 based computer, which while not modern, does go over a lot of foundational low level stuff

[harsh quartz]

So the lower level it gets the higher level it gets

the part from zappy kite to thinking machine is the really interesting part, IMO
the evolution of computers once we had them, is a very iterative process

the biggest jump IMO was the first ones

from mechnaical calulators, to special purpose electromechanical computers, to fully electronic general purpose computers

[harsh quartz]

Who looked at the idea of running electricity at the time, and went “I bet I could put this shit in some sand”

[teal estuary]

the first computers didnt do that though

[harsh quartz]

Ik, but it’s funnier to think of it like that

[teal estuary]

and it wasn't a straightforward process from sand to transistor

the transistor was really just an evolution of the vacuum tube
