Hello

[crimson kiln]

I have noticed a few people are like that in here, but thankfully not many. Most are friendly and willing to not just help, but also be nice whilst helping.

[sudden citrus]

Was testing some fluorescent materials the other day during the eclipse

Love this stuff. Weird optics materials are cool

[grim belfry]

Let's-a go!

[slow hemlock]

I dont care who the irs sends, I am NOT paying my taxes.

[cedar pebble]

optics in general are really cool

seeing through silicon is 😳

[sudden citrus]

I adore optics stuff.. I collect things like sapphire / moissanite / rare earth garnets / other synthetic materials... really anything used in optics or material science

[cedar pebble]

ooo, very nice!

[sudden citrus]

Like being able to hold a solid brick of sapphire is just so cool lol

Idk why I have an obsession with it

I just do 😅

[cedar pebble]

its extremely cool!

[sudden citrus]

may aswell plug my stuff shamelessly

[cedar pebble]

whats the bottom left crystal?

[sudden citrus]

Oh those are gamma array crystals

used for capturing pictures of gamma radiation with satellites and stuff

[cedar pebble]

oh damn thats cool

[sudden citrus]

that one specifically is a LYSO

Lutetium Yttrium Oxyorthosilicate

[cedar pebble]

im trying to start a collection for some nd:yvo4/nd:yag crystals

atm all i have is nd:yvo

[sudden citrus]

The yellow bar is a Ce:GAGG (Cerium doped Gadolinium Aluminium Gallium Garnet)

and the big one is a nice Ce:YAG (Cerium doped Yttrium Aluminium Garnet) ceramic

[cedar pebble]

do you mostly buy through ebay?

[sudden citrus]

Mixed sources, mainly 1 specific guy I know in NC who has tons of synthetics, alibaba for bulk synthetics (quartz, sapphire, zirconia), and ebay / other places for the random ones I stumble upon

Like sometimes you can find weird shit for free on really weird sites lol..

Like my silicon boule there? I got that off facebook marketplace for 25$... I see them sold on ebay for thousands

[cedar pebble]

damn, thats a nice find for $25

theres someone on ebay that sells some unique ones, not worth the price for just collecting imo

[sudden citrus]

Yeah they overprice them lol

Like, the bulk material is sold by the pound for pretty cheap

comparably those endcuts are scamming the hell outta folks

[cedar pebble]

oh yeah absolutely

bulk si is super cheap

id buy a bunch from china but dont want to deal with shipping

[sudden citrus]

Alibaba is a great source these days. Lots of material science shit on there

and luckily its a lot harder to be 'cheap' with optics and material science stuff, so quality isnt really ever a worry

you get what you pay for... assuming you can afford it... or even find it 😅

it can be hard to find them but theres tons of sellers for literal boules of rare earth garnets and stuff

But as mentioned already... quite expensive. I dont have thousands of dollars lying around, so I cant buy many boules lol

[cedar pebble]

id love to buy a huge chunk of nd:yvo4/yag to make a super large 1064nm laser

[sudden citrus]

You can find some, but they're usually thin, small, or overpriced

If you want premade laser rods, they're stupid expensive

[cedar pebble]

yeahhhhhhhhhhh

[sudden citrus]

If youre just going for at-home optics, they dont need to be exceptionally pure

Now if it was like semiconductor use or something, SAW grade or equivalent / better is usually the bare minimum (Some arbitrary N% purity far above optics grade. Depends on use case)

But granted that stuff tends to get contaminated just by transporting and holding it lol, so it wouldnt matter that much anyways

[sudden citrus]

(anyhow, the chinese stuff is actually pretty good quality if you find a well known factory. I havent had anything disappointing sent to me.)

[vapid smelt]

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/04/10/apple-made-14-billion-worth-of-iphones-in-india-in-shift-from-china.html i would just walk over to the factory and ask them to fix it

Bro apple serialises everything,it's hard to do that

[vapid smelt]

fuck i forgot about that

[grim belfry]

You can 😉

[vapid smelt]

https://support.apple.com/self-service-repair shops cant even stock pile real apple parts to use for phones since they need to be coded to the damn phone

Didn't linus say that this is more expensive

Can y’all send your math homework? I’ll do it for you 😍

[river solstice]

@foggy fern is it done`?

[manic torrent]

I need you to calculate how much torque I will need to use a MTB physical disk brake caliper on an 8cm disk using a planetary reduction drive of ugh.. I forget but I can check, which is going into a spool of wire, let's say the diameter of the spool is 5cm, and I want it to be able to brake at least 100N, ideally much more.

The spool can be setup in either single or double setup with a pulley, but that's a simple half/double.

[river solstice]

show me

lool

[gentle slate]

Hmm.. Do I raid 5 or do I raid 10

[manic torrent]

Or 6 or z z2/z3

[gentle slate]

AA youre supposed to help me decide not introduce more doubt

ohh so raidz uses zfs

[manic torrent]

I mean you provided literally zero context.

[gentle slate]

Well.. I dont got much context either

[edgy oak]

my confession:

||I bought an expensive PC and all I play is roblox||

The thing is, you decide your raid type in conjunction with choosing hardware and understanding your workload.

The crane is on a section of v slot 40x80mm C channel aluminium, and has a section that rotates and a straight section. Design is for 50kg SWL so my 25kg PC is well within limits and there's extra capacity.

It turns out that a 50kg SWL crane is actually quite hard to design and build, so this is version.. 4ish

dont ya'll hate when games use your documents folder to store ramdom stuff like the games settings, like bruh local app data folder exists for a reason, use it fml. . .

[indigo atlas]

meh

[potent cedar]

or the fucking desktop

[steep girder]

Legacy is %documents dir whatever env var is%\My Games\blah

But then they moved one up a bit to %userdir%\Games\

To fix xp to vista transition instead of changing vars, they made a hardlink junction 'Documents and Settings' -> 'Users'

(Lol thanks)

[fierce moth]

I will admit, the documents folder is much easier to back up if app data is hidden (which is default)

[steep girder]

Fk variables lets freeball it

But to this day i gotta look in profile dir Games and documents dir\My Games

Because could be either

And that beeth history of windows save dir

or app data because tbh lets just seek refuge there... evem'n though people still seem to have trouble using Local, Local Low and Roaming properly...

well technically it was David Tennant but the first episode of DW i watched was the one he regens in to Matt

guys is it good idea upgrade win 10 to 11 ?

yeah its fine

some people will say no, because they dont like that win11 introduces some changes to how they use windows 10. but they are the sqame people who cry whenever facebook makes a slight UI change

I'm never buying an asus card again. Got a 3060 12gb and windows just hangs when it tries to load

[fossil frost]

thats nothing to do with it being asus

[merry gull]

never had a problem with my other cards

Asus can take their shit back

[fossil frost]

its likely down to that particular card... or that you need to pull the card. run DDU, and then plug the card back in and then install nvidia drivers

[keen drift]

what exactly are you worried about, depends on what you're looking for

[merry gull]

I can't install drivers if it hangs on boot smarty pants

I already ran ddu

check eventviewer, it should tell you why it hung on boot on the previous boot

no, they are the same OS, win11 has some ui changes and some upgrades... other than that, the core part of the OS is identical

you sure you have all the external power plugged in correctly? ie. the 1x or 2x 6 pin or 8 pin cables? and, from seperate sources on the psu, not using a splitter?

[lilac bear]

build your own pins

[merry gull]

what do you say is the best pc case under 100$?

[graceful burrow]

how much is a pop air where you are

[left venture]

Phanteks has some good ones

[fossil frost]

i have an nzxt h5 flow, not sure what it costs in other places, but was quite cheap when i bought it, and has good airflow

[left venture]

Or Lian li lancool but they’re a bit more

[harsh quartz]

4000d sits around 100$ depending on sales and location

Ditto with the meshify

[left venture]

4000d mid it’s like the most overused case. Looks too generic tbh

[fossil frost]

its overused for a reason

[left venture]

It looks generic

Nothing special about it

[fossil frost]

it doesnt need to do. it needs to have good airflow and help cool the components correctly

Hi, I don't post here too often but someone is in this discord just tried to buy my account. I grabbed their UID, is there somewhere I can post it?

[graceful burrow]

message a mod

[fossil frost]

that too

[fossil frost]

and yeah, message a mod

[harsh quartz]

Looks mid but works great

Good space, good airflow, and it’s customizable inside which makes it adjustable for different use cases

[sweet jetty]

Oh, tysm

I reckon they know about the topic tho, I heard they talked about it in the last Wan show

[pastel marsh]

idk, how did you do on the group a 9 stage

[pallid falcon]

[idle nymph]

Oh no no I'm asking if you saw him cause that's my dad, usually he's either on the middle of the board or slightly above

[tall urchin]

yo i use a 27 inch monitor for gaming but its 60 hz. should i go for a 144hz 27 inch or a 144hz 24 inch. will reduction of 3 inches in screen size make too noticable of a difference? (i also watch a lot of content on this)

Hi

[left venture]

Is it 1080p?

Or 1440

[tender geyser]

Probably 1080p

[tender geyser]

If you’re talking about 1080p, 24 inch is worth the size trade off for sharpness

If you’re mostly gaming 27 inch is fine but for stuff involving text it’s kind of a pain unless you scale it up

[north grove]

is installing linux a really bad idea

i'm feeling linuxy

[harsh quartz]

If 1440p, 27in, if 1080, probably 24in, also is it 1 monitor or multiple?

[left venture]

If you’ve had 27 inch and it was fine get the 27 inch

[lilac bear]

27" 1080p sounds like pain in this age

[left venture]

No need to downgrade in size

Eh it’s prolly fine

[lilac bear]

yeah if vision kinda fucked lol

[tender geyser]

U have to crank the scale to like 150% or it’s unusable

[left venture]

I used to use 720p trust 1080p is fine 💀

[north grove]

SD user alert

[left venture]

Sd?

Nah 720p is hd

1080p is fhd

[lilac bear]

^^^

[tender geyser]

On a 27 inch monitor?

[north grove]

umm i think you will find that SD is 720x480

[lilac bear]

10 pixels per inch /j

[left venture]

I’m talking 1280x720

[left venture]

I haven’t tried a 27 inch 1080p one tbh

[lilac bear]

who the fuck measures horizontally

[left venture]

Well the tv we got is 1080p and it’s fine so

And it’s like 44 inches

[lilac bear]

because you sit like 10 feet away from the tv

[tender geyser]

dont ever bother with it

[tulip mantle]

Was up brother

[north grove]

idk man who the fuck would call 720p high definition

[lilac bear]

but thats what it means

and 720p was a standard for ages

but nowadays even cheap smartphones are FHD

[fierce tinsel]

720p was "HD Ready"

[north grove]

yeah i know it's the standard but the standard is stupid

[neon shoal]

i love that feeling when you finally saved up enough money to buy your dream pc and you can just buy what you want at canada computers

[manic torrent]

You know that history goes back further than 2000?

[fierce tinsel]

Well it was better than 480p..

[manic torrent]

"HD" was compared to PAL and NTSC.

[lilac bear]

it's not "the standard"

1080p is the minimum today

[north grove]

i mean the standard terminology not the standard resolution

[manic torrent]

Yes, and it's not stupid, it's only stupid in retrospect if you don't understand the context.

[north grove]

it can have not been stupid when they came up with it and also be stupid now

[lilac bear]

huh

if you want confusing

8K and 4K are both Ultra High Definition

[north grove]

don't even get me started on the flagrant rounding errors

but it is fun that 5k and 2k round down but 4k rounds up

[lilac bear]

2K isn't really even by the same definition of what 4K was

I've heard of it as QHD

and then random people started saying 2K

[north grove]

i personally cannot think of a single time when FHD is more clear than saying 1080p

[lilac bear]

1080p? you mean 1K

[north grove]

yeah 1k by 2k

you guys use 2:1 right?

[lilac bear]

480p is just 0.5K

[grim belfry]

Most of the time, when advertising displays

[north grove]

you would think so but

i think personally that most people can understand the concept of more is better

[lilac bear]

it does help if you give the exact dimensions

like 1080x720

[north grove]

and i think if you don't know what resolution is to the point that 1080p or 720p is going to be confusing to you then HD and FHD and UHD or whatever else surely is not less confusing

i just do not understand who this naming scheme benefits

[lilac bear]

I mean it's as confusing as 2K

[left venture]

8k should be XHD not uhd

[lilac bear]

1600p falls under 2K
but 1440p also does

[north grove]

i cannot see how to someone who doesn't know about displays in an advertising context how the difference between HD FHD UHD WQHD or QHD is less abstract than 720p, 1080p, 1440p, and 2160p

[grim belfry]

I worked at an electronics retailer for a couple years, and trust me Nelly from finance understood HD vs FHD vs 4k much more than 720p vs 1080p vs 2160p

[north grove]

yeah but why

it's not like "full HD" means anything

[wise plover]

Yo guys can someone help me get this virus off my computer. A guy called me named John Scammer and told me that computer has this virus

[north grove]

yeah you have to remove windows and install the operating system for a 2006 nintendo DS

[grim belfry]

While the acronyms may seem abstract, they serve as concise labels for specific resolutions. The terms are widely recognized and associated with superior visual quality; most people seem to understand it very quickly in my experience. 720p, 1080p and 2560p usually require additional explanation, making them less effective when you're trying to sell Nelly a TV

[north grove]

ok fine

but i maintain that whoever came up with the naming scheme had very little foresight and as such the scheme remains very stupid

[wise plover]

Thanks 🙂

[lilac bear]

I mean

how long until 1080p is deemed small

it used to be thought that 720p was all we needed

8K is still slowly creeping into the consumer market

[dreamy thorn]

I use 21:9 1080p and I think it's enough, but then again I'm thr guy rocking a vega 56 in 2024

[indigo plume]

well I already have prime since I have amazon prime

[real linden]

dude I just lost a usb drive with all my sensitive shit on it in a movie theatre cause the keychain broke off 💀

[harsh quartz]

Yeah. So did I. Now it has ads.

[real linden]

super fun

[indigo plume]

why you carring that shit around with you

[real linden]

look alright it had my phone backup and I was restoring stuff throughout the day cause I was busy

[indigo plume]

like if its that sensitive should be in like a bag or somthing

[real linden]

i wish i could've had it encrypted

[real linden]

it never leaves my person, it's always in my pocket and I keep good track of at least the entire unit

[indigo plume]

I just keep stuff like that in my desk

[harsh quartz]

It did*, it was*, and you did*

As soon as Youtube started nagging about adblockers, I said "Nope, you're done, get the fuck off my browser"

[real linden]

tbh i hardly ever watch youtube in a browser, i just use revanced on my phone

[karmic wedge]

I was using Revanced, but then v19.09.37 dropped and then playback became a stuttery mess

I've since shifted to Tubular

[real linden]

it's working just fine for me

[karmic wedge]

lucky you

did you change the microg provider

[karmic wedge]

Yes, I have the new microg settings one

can you solder?

[hot bobcat]

i have some soldering skills yea

and i still have the cap i nocked off

so i know which one to get

thing is after i nocked the cap off my m.2 slots suddnly stopped working

and on top of that i got a tiny bit of thermal grease in the socket

This is the only cap that was nocked off

[vapid smelt]

why is it so dirty

[hot bobcat]

my room is dusty no matter how much i clean it

Can i het these caps off amazon ?

[manic torrent]

Knocked. And you should be able to get suitable capacitors from wherever yeah

could this thing also be the cause of my m.2 slots not working any more ?

No point in owning an iPhone then if everything gets opened only reason i own one is the actually good closed standards open standards are awful to actually use

[harsh quartz]

Nani the fuck?

[full fossil]

Open standards aren’t up to the same standard in all implementations

Just thrown in there for a badge on a box

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, but that’s cause there’s no reason to actually standardize, if apple is forced into it with other companies there will be a reason to use a standard, and there will be someone to enforce the standard

[full fossil]

Will see if it ruins my phone then

Stopped using android to get away from the exact standards coming to iOS

[dreamy thorn]

Open standards run the world, the web and emails are open standards

It's good that companies are forced to adopt open standards

[unreal sluice]

everyone I know with a "non plus" iPhone or Android has a power bank on them at all times
what's the point of a compact phone if you need to lug around additional stuff 😂

[dreamy thorn]

Either way, it's unfortunately you personally feel this way, but open systems are a good thing for everyone, they give them optional control over their computing they otherwise wouldn't have.

[full fossil]

iPhone Battery life is awful yes that’s known by everyone having a physically smaller battery will do that

Next step is ai training the 'pause event detection' which means sending just your fkm video feed itself to manufacturer ☠️

[full fossil]

I saw about that that’s why I have pi hole set up now and plan to have it in the future aswell

[dreamy thorn]

Don't see why they are even allowed to get a patent on this, specially when previous art exists ☠️

Software patents are cringe

[steep girder]

Having seen this, I am inclined to agree lmfao

[dreamy thorn]

Like DVRs with passthrough exist, some were smart enough to show ads

[fierce moth]

Heck the xbox one could do it, without ads

[dreamy thorn]

Like the Xbox one lol (even though they never added the promised DVR feature the passthrough was still a thing)

[dreamy thorn]

TBF the Xbox one has ads on the interface as well

[fierce moth]

I had a family friend use it as a passthrough to their xbox 360

[full fossil]

Could ppl not set up Pi hole?

[dreamy thorn]

Pi hole might not always be viable depending on how ads are shown

[fierce moth]

Pi hole isn't a bullet proof solution

They often struggle with video ads

[dreamy thorn]

Some form of CDN + DNS over Https + esni means you can't really know what they are doing

[steep girder]

Well ads in interface was already a big problem tbh. I remember when my sammy tv updated, broke some sht and added a 'security fix' which turned out to be immovable ad tile on home screen XD

[full fossil]

It blocks all ads except YouTube sometimes YouTube ad urs change to much

[harsh quartz]

No, pi’s are fairly brittle and wouldn’t hold up to bullets very well

[steep girder]

Luckily there was a workaround using adguard dns still

[fierce moth]

Yeah good one mate /s

[steep girder]

Tv line sucked so much there wasnt even any active homebrew around lmfao

[dreamy thorn]

It's not a URL thing, esni is for IPs that have different services in them, on a bespoke system like a console it migbt not be possible to block ads without blocking something else

[steep girder]

Or i think unsignes cfw was just impossible to install

[harsh quartz]

Honestly I’m fine with paying for YouTube premium but I ain’t paying for the prime video shit on top of Amazon prime, probably gonna go sailing if I have to watch anything on prime after fallout

[fierce moth]

[harsh quartz]

Yes

Gimme the funny hat

[full fossil]

Teams gets blocked it thinks it an ad luckily don’t have to use it anymore

[dreamy thorn]

Some countries that censored certain adult book sites could be bypassed with esni because their ips were CloudFlare's, so blocking that one IP would mean blocking many legitimate sites (block by domain isnt viable if you have dns over Https)

[fierce moth]

Well in Australia Disney stopped selling all physical media and I refuse to pay a subscription so you know what that means

They still sell physical media?

[ruby belfry]

Going back to the topic from the WAN show 12.4.24. re PIA and VPN. Since being taken over by Kape Technologies, I have found it being flagged a lot more. Not just for the occasional 'robot check' but MalwareBytes blocking certain servers (especially in the UK/EU regions) More of the 'are you human' checks (which will fail to load sometimes) and advertising of all sorts getting around the VPN. I have cancelled my PIA subscription this year due to these issues and at one time you could get a human tech chat within minutes now you're talking months before somebody gets back to you. Suffice to say I've looked into Nord VPN. The only problem is that it doesn't give you as many seats on the licence like PIA did when Linus was doing the voucher. I could really do with 8 seats on a licence for Nord however the maximum is 5 unless you have another account.

[full fossil]

Perfect idea /s

[harsh quartz]

Fair, but physical is good

[ruby belfry]

I would without a doubt always own a DVD and then rip it to my Plex server at least then worst case scenario I have got a physical copy to go back on. Having physical media especially in the days of services being taken over then things cancelled removed from storefronts etc. Keep physical media.

[harsh quartz]

I’m also pissed that Amazon prime video says it supports 4k and then won’t let me fuckin select 4k as an option

[fierce moth]

There's always the high seas

[fierce moth]

Widevine is a bitch

[harsh quartz]

The oceans have a lot but they don’t have everything

[harsh quartz]

Widevine?

[full fossil]

hi

[harsh quartz]

Didn’t know about that, imma go turn it off and see if I can get 4k

Cause it’s so dumb watching 1080p content on a screen that can do 4k

[fierce moth]

Widevine is drm

You can't turn it off, and only likes certain browsers

And certain os'es

[harsh quartz]

Quick google says there’s workarounds for it, imma try them

[steep girder]

Why not sell physical media god forbid the ownership and means of access is off the grid free of ever-changing ToS

[harsh quartz]

I’m on windows 11 Google chrome, it better fuckin like that

[ruby belfry]

Sometimes the oceans are littered with garbage

[fierce moth]

I have my methods

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, the Atlantic Ocean has this giant patch of garbage that’s so big people call it an island, they’ve even named it. “The UK”

[steep girder]

It's time to bust out the firewood and oven cabin smh

[fierce moth]

I'm not going in depth though

[ruby belfry]

Ouch 🤕

[steep girder]

What I learned about tech in my years is fuck tech

And Im a programmer by profession 🐱

Sad existence

[ruby belfry]

I have to agree with you @harsh quartz but ouch none the less

[steep girder]

Pun intended?

[fierce moth]

no pun intended

[full fossil]

ah

[crystal drum]

[full fossil]

1. what double ping 2)Elijah may be capable of great things but no one can match linus

[steep girder]

Anyone know if xz utils safe to apt update on ubuntu server yet?

Because the whole backdoor thing...

[fierce moth]

discord can be fucky with double messages if the internet is sketchy

[harsh quartz]

What on discord isn’t broken

[fierce moth]

true

[fierce moth]

iirc it wasnt pushed to prod ubuntu server

[steep girder]

Oh wait my sshd only listens on 10.69.0.0/24 lopl pwnt

[fierce moth]

only testing

[steep girder]

True thanks

I use vpn service with manual approve and ip assignment as intranet for sshd so im safe tbh

It wont let pub ip even connect let alone the exploit that comes later p

At least I think...

[full fossil]

what do you even need a vpn for

it gotta be at least 2 terrabytes

🔥

[steep girder]

zerotier

[fierce moth]

the only distro that got the exploit in daily use was arch

and that isnt a prod server distro (at least i hope)

[steep girder]

Its not a vpn in the common sense of the word how and why ppl use it

[full fossil]

Ghost ping

[steep girder]

But i mean case and point I have a virtual network iface which sshd only listens on. To get a 10.69.. addy for it, theyd need to find my network id out, hack my zt central account, add attacker machine and manually approve it + assign addy

[full fossil]

?

[steep girder]

Only then would the xz utils backdoor have worked had I picked it up in an update on my server

[fierce moth]

i use my yubikey for remote ssh auth

[steep girder]

True

[full fossil]

Mb, my phone must've done that
Discord mobile is buggy

[full fossil]

.

[pallid falcon]

.

[full fossil]

.

[lapis solstice]

iirc, even though it got into arch, it won't work, because sshd doest link to the backdoored library

[tough vortex]

anyone know stuff about arch linux

im getting stupidly slow download speeds of 15KiB/s

for some reason and idk how to fix it

[mortal kraken]

Try changing mirrors maybe? Probably congested

(that is if you're getting slow Pacman package stuff)

If it's slow download speeds elsewhere then tell more perhaps

[daring fulcrum]

Linus breaking bad is always funny

[kindred bison]

why does this keychron keyboard have a separate mac and windows mode with a light and everything

the fuck is different

[prime crest]

Mac

[barren linden]

Different key command needed to be sent for the command key. Especially for Bluetooth

[kindred bison]

wouldn't you buy a special apple keyboard if you need special mac stuff

[barren linden]

But special apple keyboards aren't keychrons

[kindred bison]

yeah well

i'm not in the market for a keyboard that i have to pair or plug in so

[native seal]

why is lie nus a lier

[kindred bison]

when keyboards start talking about os compatibility i find vestigial eyebrows to raise

[sand igloo]

Well, with all keyboards, you either have to pair or plug.

[kindred bison]

don't they make them with wireless dongles like mice

[sand igloo]

You still have to plug them in.

[kindred bison]

well I mean you plug in a little dongle sure

takes up a port but no cable

[sand igloo]

Right, then it's a wireless keyboard.

[kindred bison]

doesn't even take up a port if you connect it directly to your motherboard usb 2 headewr

[sand igloo]

You still need to plug and/or still need to pair, that's how a keyboard works.

[kindred bison]

oh thanks I didn't know

[dense shadow]

hi all, just joined the server

[kindred bison]

most people don't even use thier motherboard's usb 2.0 header at all or know you can get a little thingy that just connects plugs directly to that and gives you 2 ports, there's your keyboard and mouse with no bluetooth or cables as long as they have those little wireless dongles

and you haven't even lost a port

[full fossil]

I HATE

rtx 3050

[indigo atlas]

nice

[lethal ridge]

Anyone here who know stuff about ios?

[pallid falcon]

The rtx 3050 hates you also

I don't tho :3

[golden talon]

fuck the 3050 8gb

3050 6gb is based tho

[pallid falcon]

How

[golden talon]

fastest card that runs on bus power for less than $200

[pallid falcon]

Ok

[left venture]

Pretty sure 3050 is just under 200

For the 8g

[full fossil]

at that point get a 2060 for like 140

[ionic abyss]

i need something more powerfull than a 3080\

[silver sun]

116

[ionic abyss]

ive seen no good options under $700

[graceful burrow]

Used 3090's can sometimes pop up on ebay for less than 700

[ionic abyss]

im looking at a 4070ti super currently

[harsh quartz]

4070ti super, for when a 4070 and a 4070ti isn’t enough

[ionic abyss]

if im spending so much i want 16gb of vrams

[harsh quartz]

Amd

[ionic abyss]

id prefer nvidia gpu

[graceful burrow]

24gb with a 3090

[harsh quartz]

Keep walking up that product ladder

Could get a 3090 but I want the newer gen, so a 4070, but I want the vram, and the closest is a 4070ti super

[ionic abyss]

it meets my needs and should out preform my 3080

and should be compatable with the 2 connectors i know i have for gpu power

why should i consider amd or intel

amd is know for buggy drivers

intel is lackluster

i see no reason to to take chances

[hardy trout]

is 11 still worse than 10 its been like 2 years

[sharp bobcat]

I mean if you want something faster than 3080 you wouldn't take a look at intel because at least for now they're not gunning for that position

not because they're lackluster

[left venture]

3090 for 700+ used is such a rip off

They were like 800, 900 bucks new like a year or so ago
