like usb 40 gigabit

[grim belfry]

Don't tempt them

[long briar]

rather than usb 3.2gen2by2 or USB4... which can also be 20gbit

[gentle slate]

why are tech naming conventions so cursed

[slim yacht]

me when usb type c, gen 3.2 40gb

worst name someone can give

[long briar]

Saw the edit: Windows definitely had 6e support. the G14 and G16 running the same Windows 11 build.

[gentle slate]

mfw 40 EUR shipping for an AX210

[long briar]

oh I bought mine locally

[slim yacht]

or you can technically buy a desktop wifi card on shelf and dismantle it by yourself

[long briar]

desktop wifi cards are overpriced shit

[gentle slate]

Might get the Ax200. Shipping costs as much as an Ax210

[slim yacht]

they technically use the same small card but with big ass antenna

[long briar]

no they're actually about the same length realistically

[slim yacht]

yes

here it cost like 4-5 dollars more maybe with them big badonkas antenna hanging at the back of your case

[long briar]

oh those are ancient

Most antennas on decent wifi cards and onboard slots will use something like this

ICE BREAKERS LIQUID ICE WAS THE SHIT

[jaunty cove]

y put it in the front like that tho it's ugly

[gentle slate]

oh shit an ax210 for 20 EUR

Local too! do I pull the trigger?

Hmmmm. Nvm its sus

[long briar]

you didn't get the joke did yo

it's a dong 😄

[gentle slate]

or no.. Its not sus. Seems to check out

[jaunty cove]

the pc is excited lol

u see I wanted to make a dirty joke but I just assumed u had it like that normally

[long briar]

ahaha

[gentle slate]

So there's an AX210 for 60 EUR with intel branding on top of the entire thing

the other is 20 EUR with nothing

the 20 EUR now seems scary

[grim belfry]

lol

[gentle slate]

bruh i might end up being one of the few people that have ordered an ax210 in this country

this shit just aint available locally

[covert cradle]

https://www.wi-fi.org/regulations-enabling-6-ghz-wi-fi
Is it even allowed in your country?

[gentle slate]

oh.. Its considering it.

Wait no its not even considering

caveman society.

man fuck this country

[grim belfry]

lol

[analog dock]

I used to be a welder and sheet metal worker, I can give you some tips and guidelines if you decide to go through with it
But the size of the motherboard screw holes minus the size of the screws is about the level of accuracy you need, so if you haven't done something similar before you'll likely end up having a very bad time

Maybe a better idea is to get some nuts and just secure the standoffs from the rear, if they are long enough for that

Yeah looks like that is the way to go, the tray is waaay too thin to thread
Maybe someone else here has experience

[grim belfry]

https://www.protocase.com/

[deep mist]

hi

[manic torrent]

Or use plastic standoff nuts, longer screws, and then nuts of the back

Ezpz, I have everything needed for that already

[grim belfry]

I'd make a wood and acrylic case make it pretty, as I assume you're using it as a desktop

[rare otter]

I've been screwing around with ai and I made a cool lil visualizer

[wispy marsh]

This is new - it's a type of moist cleaning tool on a stick that helps with debris and stains, both dried or wet and is designed to be easily cleaned. I can't believe we're making such a useful tool like this for the first time in history, has anyone seen something like this?

[wispy marsh]

Girls with really nice hair is a rarity here, most of them are just street acceptable

The entire country is a fashion show to some degree anyway

[strong kettle]

alot of them have really generic hair

[wispy marsh]

You can't say that

"Street acceptable" is a non-offensive term

[strong kettle]

1 of my friends said that my crushes hair looks like a broom

[wispy marsh]

Have you told her?

[strong kettle]

im still trying to talk to her

but apparently she knows i have taken an interest in her so

my plans might have gotten leaked

[wispy marsh]

"Hey, just so you know, I've got feelings for you. Wanna hang out more?"

[strong kettle]

"no you're weird"

[wispy marsh]

better than not knowing

if you want a windows XP system sure

[fluid zenith]

[hearty spear]

[full fossil]

[steep girder]

If i needed a little cube comp hooked up to tv for media, would the highest end ryzens' igpus from last few gens be enough?

For at least like 1080p60 decoding and have some overhead?

Because i want it compact and don't wanna deal with wedging in a buhjungus

Or maybe intel cpu w retina/iris ipgus?

[gilded quest]

Too many times

[hearty spear]

If you get a ryzen 8600/8700, it'll last /ages/ as a media PC.

Even at 4K Decoding

[hearty spear]

https://youtu.be/Ye60Wf8lUt8?si=kUxmLjM3CdW2AQ6r
It's almost as fast as a RX 6500 XT, which ain't bad at all for an iGPU

it'll absolutely do 4K decoding for you

it's not.

It's exactly what it's advertised as in a LLM.

If you're looking for a sentient computer? That's not what they're building or advertising

no, you're huffing the hate copium, because you don't like anything

and this is a very small part of why nobody likes you, or takes you seriously

AI is still very very VERY early in it's lifespan. What we're using now is nothing like the AI we'll be employing in 5-10 years.

LLMs aren't tied to sentience, but are still very useful for a lot of areas of business and life

[spice pine]

(they do)

[graceful burrow]

(they do constantly if you actually looked into it instead of blindly hating it from the sidelines without knowing anything about it)

[hearty spear]

Are you actively trying to demonstrate that you have /no/ idea what you're talking about?
Cuz you're doing a PHENOMENAL fucking job of demonstrating you're an idiot

[spice pine]

and even then, to the end user, this is mostly what people wanted out of “AI” anyways.

[hearty spear]

I like the guy who used GPT to make up recipes and then he made them

it was kinda cool

[spice pine]

Using these “AI” tools as intended is phenomenal, they’re super fun tools to assist with stuff

[graceful burrow]

Youtuber voidstar labs did ai cocktails vs human cocktails for their April fools video and it was very fun, extremely enjoyable video

[hearty spear]

mmmmm drinkage

Here's the thing with LLMs:

General purpose ones like GPT and Bing's, and Googles aren't going to be super useful in any one thing, since the data set they've trained on is so absurdly expansive.

If you're doing something for work, you're going to want to train a LLM on data related to what you're doing, and leaving out stuff that is irrelevant, and may feed bad results

[spice pine]

me when i spread misinformation (you do this constantly)

[hearty spear]

and again: you have no idea wtf you're talking about

[spice pine]

I literally don’t think i’ve seen this user do anything but spread misinformation about products they hate on here

[covert cradle]

No, companies do that and have been doing so forever. They don't use AI to collect your information.

[hearty spear]

Have you considered actually learning anything about the things you do nothing but lie about?

Or are you happy living your life in ignorance, and literally just acting the fool all day?

[spice pine]

certainly makes me miserable seeing it

[hearty spear]

samesies

PROVE IT
or stop lying

[graceful burrow]

Me when I make up baseless rumors to try and fear monger people

[hearty spear]

The rules of an honest debate include:
When you make a claim, it's on you to prove it, since it's impossible to prove a negative.

no it fucking doesn't

[graceful burrow]

[covert cradle]

No it doesn't. LLMs/transformers do not collect or steal personal data. They literally cannot do that.

[hearty spear]

Sauce? Cuz, you have 0 credibility, unless you have a source to prove this nonsense

[covert cradle]

Data is collected the good ol fashion way, by you willingly giving it up in a privacy agreement on the websites you've been using years before LLMs even existed

[hearty spear]

And... you realize that fucktons of your data is already public domain and for sale, right?

no, because you're on the fucking internet

no simplification was needed, dumbass. Internet scrapers and crawlers have existed for longer than you've been alive

[covert cradle]

Nope, it literally cannot be used for that. At most, it makes the data they've been collecting the past decades a bit more valuable. It has no influence the actual collection of data

[hearty spear]

Up until a year or two ago everything that was on reddit ever could be downloaded.

once again: Prove it.

Because you're just spewing bullshit

[covert cradle]

Still nope

[hearty spear]

AI Ain't gonna help you hack shit, dipwad

if a jailbroken LLM is giving you that? That info's already on the fucking internet and you can find it in a search engine

[covert cradle]

AI is quite useless for novel ideas, which hacking requires unless your target is an anti-updater type of person

[hearty spear]

dude what

just what?

There's no way you're actually this delusional

[summer folio]

Don't copy that floppy

[hearty spear]

WTF is "a prototype of data" ?!

[spice pine]

i love when the delusion takes over and they’re just completely divorced from reality

[summer folio]

You wouldn't download a car.

[hearty spear]

the fuck I wouldn't

[summer folio]

Gotta pay for users data, duh. Otherwise it's stealing.

[hearty spear]

you do, because you're spewing nothing but nonsensical bullshit

You're not even using logical phrases at this point

[hearty spear]

up until a couple years ago, it was free from Reddit

[covert cradle]

Please do so. Enlighten us laypeople

[hearty spear]

inb4 he just glosses over it and continues the tirade

[spice pine]

he will, because that’s what he always does. it’s kind of annoying to just see someone contribute nothing and spread lies / misinformation everywhere constantly

[graceful burrow]

in my defense: I get hulu w ads for free, courtesy of sprint

[graceful burrow]

I just pirate what I want

I could pay for it but I still wouldn't own it

[hearty spear]

which is dumb

[graceful burrow]

Yuh

Only way to own nowadays is buy it on disc and rip it
And not everything gets physical releases

If buying isn't owning then piracy isn't stealing 🤷‍♂️

Though t-mobile does apparently have Hulu w/ads On Us for their newest plan

i’m just mad they don’t give me the option to pay the difference for Hulu without ads

[wary grotto]

i hate T-Mobile they didn't unlock my phone even after paying it off

[hearty spear]

you have to ask them to do it, and they will

[calm swan]

^

[wary grotto]

I did

[spice pine]

you do have to request the unlock, and it does have to be on the network for 40 days + payoff

[wary grotto]

they paid me the price of the phone back

But still didn't unlock

[hearty spear]

what?

[wary grotto]

yeah

[hearty spear]

no, what did you just say?

[wary grotto]

The ftc got on their ass

[wary grotto]

That my phone isn't unlocking even after paying off

[graceful burrow]

I don't think anyone here is following what you're sayin hoss

[hearty spear]

this doesn't make sense

[wary grotto]

And they had to do some ftc stuff and ended paying me the full price of the phone

Like they refunded

[hearty spear]

that's making even less sense

[wary grotto]

THEY PAID ME BACK

[spice pine]

so, they fully reimbursed you because they weren’t able to unlock the device? i’m failing to see an issue

[graceful burrow]

Real kek

[harsh quartz]

would be a shame if I paid for it before it had ads. And I didn’t get a grandfathered in program or anything that let me stay ad free till my year was up

[graceful burrow]

I sail

[wary grotto]

It's fine it's just ughfh it's locked

[harsh quartz]

I pay when I can, so when I sail it’s more meaningful

But this year has made me grab the hat a hell of a lot more

[spice pine]

you can literally just buy an unlocked version of the phone with the full refund and move your data over

[graceful burrow]

If it's to any form of megacorporation I don't give a shit about paying in the first place

[hearty spear]

too logical

[wary grotto]

I used it to pay tuition

[covert cradle]

You are required to own an apple device and have an apple account to setup and realistically use them. Android can only detect them

[hearty spear]

well, that was your choice

[wary grotto]

True

[harsh quartz]

I won’t be for Amazon or anything going forward. I still use YouTube premium tho

[mint abyss]

i see, thnanks

[wary grotto]

BUT STILL , it was supposed to be unlocked according to them

[hearty spear]

and you got a free fuckin' phone, what's your major complaint?

[graceful burrow]

Do you use a Google Chromecast with TV by chance

[spice pine]

shit happens, no system is flawless and you were compensated for the issue

[wary grotto]

They always say they are escalating the issue

[graceful burrow]

Not revanced

[austere shale]

Have you tried going into a store

[covert cradle]

I also paid for prime before they rolled out ads, but the very moment they said ads were coming it was immediately enabled. Finally convinced me to end my sub and not just cause I'm broke

[wary grotto]

Is admitting sailing the seas a bannable offense in the server

[spice pine]

don’t do this

[graceful burrow]

No

[harsh quartz]

I’m happy to pay for YT premium at my current price, only 8$ a month and it’s fine. Once I lose my student discount I might put in a hat

[graceful burrow]

Fair

[hearty spear]

I sail for linux ISOs on the regular

[spice pine]

retail isn’t equipped to deal with device unlocks, nor can they escalate the issue any further than you can by calling support

[wary grotto]

don't tell Amazon , idk how I got the 6 month student trial of prime again

[austere shale]

Lucky bastard they just upped my rate to like $18 a month

[opal thunder]

Real

[austere shale]

Ugh, my girlfriend just called me and some fucking moron left their gas on in our apartment complex AGAIN, this is like the 4th time

If it’s the same apartment that 2 of the 3 previous times were im going to have a very strongly worded conversation with them

[vapid smelt]

They should lose gas privileges

[fair sage]

😄

[austere shale]

They should, every unit is individually valved so I could just go shut their gas off, and if I was home normally I would use my gas detector and shut off their gas while I wait for the maintenance people to open their door and turn off the gas but. I am stuck at work

[austere shale]

Update on the gas leak, my girlfriend can’t get ahold of the apartment people so the fire department is coming to knock down the door of the unit it is. Very entertaining

Honestly, mfs need to learn how to use a gas stove

[wary grotto]

No money

[keen cedar]

I don’t have a gas stove but I know to triple check that shits off

[austere shale]

The first time I think somebody was actually trying to blow up the apartment, all 4 knobs were full blast and nobody was home

[wary grotto]

[opal thunder]

I did

[austere shale]

Just looked at my screen time, 4.5 hours a day I’m on YouTube (usually listening to music, podcasts whatever while I’m at work) so tbh it’s still worth it but just barely

[harsh quartz]

I’m using YouTube less and less recently. YouTube music is nice but I can just keep a more up to date local playlist and I’ll be fine, I just listen to stuff I already know anyways

[austere shale]

I’ve tried to make the move to Spotify but it’s so hard because my YouTube music is already curated to what I like

Also I told my girlfriend to get a video of the fire department kicking down dudes door so if she does get a video I’ll post it here for the lols

[graceful burrow]

That's what held me back then YouTube started crashing on me and I said fuck it

[harsh quartz]

YouTube music is very uncreative for me “oh you like caravan palace? Here’s more caravan palace. What’s that? You want something that’s LIKE caravan palace but isn’t the group itself? Sorry, here’s more caravan palace”

[graceful burrow]

And now I hate using YouTube music
It's recommendations suck even if it's highly curated

[harsh quartz]

Like the genre selection and similar music suggestions just suck

[austere shale]

There was a while there where YouTube would crash once or twice a day but I haven’t had it do it for a while now

[harsh quartz]

Mobile or desktop?

[graceful burrow]

Desktop
I don't consume media on my phone unless it's text

[austere shale]

Really, I can’t say I’ve ever had YouTube crash on desktop

[harsh quartz]

I’m surprised the desktop YouTube is crashing. Is it through browser or the app?

[harsh quartz]

Ditto

You did the right thing blocking and reporting the user. Discord has details on reporting abusive behavior on their support site.

At least it wasn't a bot this time.

Maybe it was genuinely just advertisement spam and not a scam redirect this time but idc.

Hello There

[austere shale]

Video of the fire department kicking down the door as promised

[fossil frost]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nk-zi8grFdw was apples new ipad app realistic.. 😄

[deep sedge]

Apparently the CEOs of NVIDIA and AMD are cousins

[fossil frost]

yes, everyone knows

[deep sedge]

Damn I'm late as hell

I just discovered that now

[solemn axle]

How much space you would need for Windows?

realistically, i know it is possible to install in on 30gb

[hearty spear]

you probably want a minimum of a 64gb drive

you can but you'll run out of space quickly

[solemn axle]

I have 1Tb drive i would like to allocate nearly entirely for linux

[hearty spear]

so make the windows partition like 64gb and just use the rest for windows

[fossil frost]

partition 100gb off for windows to be safe, so you have room to install stuff within windows too

[hearty spear]

or buy a super cheap 128gb SATA and put windows on that as a separate boot drive

[fossil frost]

also this, this is the better way

[hearty spear]

since dual boot is a headache

[solemn axle]

the only way would be to use thunderbolt and external drive

this laptop has only one nvme slot

[hearty spear]

oh, RIP

[fossil frost]

i run an nvme in an enclosure over usb-c 3.1 10gb for my linux install. works perfectly fine

[solemn axle]

:hmm: but at the same time i'm not sure windows would react the same by being on the external drive

[fossil frost]

it runs fine when it is installed to external.. but.. it wont let you install WHILE its external

[hearty spear]

windows can get cranky about being on an external

[fossil frost]

you need to have the drive inside the machine first... install... then rip it out and put it in an enclosure

[solemn axle]

do you mean ui won't show the external drive?

[fossil frost]

it will show it, and let you choose it, and then will complain about it being external

thats over usb though... not sure if it would also complain about thunderbolt

[cobalt narwhal]

Yo chat

[fossil frost]

im sure you can do something with ntlite on the windows iso to remove that limitation though

[solemn axle]

oh, it wouldn't be a problem, i always do install it using dism image applying

also, is BitLocker any good?

[fossil frost]

yeah, especially if you have a drive that uses opel, and set it up to use it

even if you dont, you dont really notice its overhead if your CPU has AES instructions

[solemn axle]

ok, I just usually used veracrypt for windows and luks for linux

[fossil frost]

i use bitlocker on my home and my work machine

multi-national multi-billion company, with a very expensive IT team trust it

[hearty spear]

most people don't need that though 😉

I don't have anything remotely interesting enough to put bitlocker on my PC

[fossil frost]

i did have it turned off on my wife's laptop, because of those reasons, and because she has a habbit of pressing buttons that she shouldnt press.. and i got sick of having to find the keys on her MS account and unlocking the bitlocker boot drive for her

[solemn axle]

do Microsoft force to use MS accounts for bitlocker now?

I remember back then you just had to save a file

[fossil frost]

no, but if you do have an MS account, they give you the option to back up the keys to your ms account

can still save to file

[solemn axle]

i'll probably prefer a file

[hearty spear]

(But if it's saved to your MS Account it's way harder to lose that stupid file)

[solemn axle]

the only reason i use MS are my 3 minecraft accounts

[distant rune]

[storm scarab]

Perhaps I haven't seen anything yet, but I'm curious as to why Linus hasn't commented on the ASUS ROG Ally warranty & RMA shenanigans that GN uncovered last week? Is there commentary coming? Seems odd that Linus would remain silent on this issue, considering how many others have chimed in...

[harsh quartz]

That’s a wan show topic, if anything

Ltt also rarely makes videos about this stuff except for wan show clips

[storm scarab]

I suspected as much, but still. Linus has always been an advocate for the consumer and I would expect that he would find this particular issue to be concerning. I suppose we will see on Friday.

[gleaming harbor]

i wonder when 16gb is the bare minimum

[harsh quartz]

I don’t remember them making a video the last time asus was in hot water

[storm scarab]

Just about a year ago, there was a WAN show discussion about the Mobo BIOS issues. Its titled "ASUS is in the doghouse" its on LMG Clips

[grim belfry]

Today. Don’t buy a new computer with 8GB of RAM

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, but it wasn’t a dedicated video, so yeah I imagine it’ll be the same thing again

[stuck marten]

I thin kthis might be the DDr3 talking but for me now 😭

[harsh quartz]

Is it not? I’ve considered 16 the minimum recommended for a while

[quasi belfry]

Yes, and yes

[storm scarab]

I just want to know his take on this. Its a bit scandalous what ASUS is doing in that RMA process.

[graceful burrow]

If he wants to talk on it he will
We don't know if he plans to or what he'll say
We have access to the same info you do lmao

[lilac bear]

already is if you play high settings modern games and firefox at the same time

or chrome like a pleb

or opera gx like a real gamer

or edge for the gooners

safari for the mac users

tor for the piraters

[grim belfry]

👀

[harsh quartz]

“Company bad. Oh no. They’ve done it again. Who could’ve seen this coming? Won’t anybody think of the children!?” honestly the fuck do you expect him to say?

[harsh quartz]

Honestly Firefox takes so much more ram than chrome does now

[storm scarab]

Wow, didnt expect to be fucking chastised for expressing a desire to hear commentary on a topic, jesus fucking christ @harsh quartz

[harsh quartz]

Damn, not even a reply, just a straight up @

[graceful burrow]

Dang you really ticked this guy off polar

[harsh quartz]

I really hope Linus has the hottest of hot takes and agrees with asus or some shit now just to prove me wrong :p

[spice pine]

I don’t think i’ve seen LTT comment on controversies that aren’t their own unless it’s on WAN show tbh

[harsh quartz]

They don’t usually make dedicated videos unless it’s actually like a danger to the community like the burning 4090s

[storm scarab]

LMG does business with Asus. And Linus daily drives an Ally. Is it that outrageous to expect a comment on it?

[spice pine]

Considering the lack of precedent, kinda?

[grim belfry]

Why is Jesus fucking himself?

[harsh quartz]

It’ll be on wan show. It’s always on wan show.

I’m just curious why you think it’ll be any different than what GN, or Louis, or any of the other YouTubers have already said

[wispy marsh]

is wan show live?

... oh. it's a tuesday

[spice pine]

it’s not friday

[manic torrent]

they have called out asus before

[storm scarab]

I like hearing Linus' opinion and perception of these incidents. Its why I follow LMG, its why I watch the channels.

[harsh quartz]

Kek, it’s actually just 4 days late

[manic torrent]

I mean when it happens it's live....

[wispy marsh]

I took annual leave today so it feels like a weekend

[spice pine]

He calls out apple for their nonsense all the time, why should ASUS be any different? Thats all im saying.

[storm scarab]

Thanks for sharing that. I hadn't seen that before. Much appreciated.

They call them out, they just don’t make drama videos. They do all the opinionated shit on wan show

[rough temple]

fun fact
1 KB is 1000 Bytes
1 Kb is 1000 bits

1 KiB is 1024 Bytes
1 Kib is 1024 bits

it's from an old standard that 1 KB is 1024 Bytes cause unit people realised making exception to metric system making it base 2 instead of base 10 is bad
so they made a new unit, metric binary, it read Kilo binary, mega binary and so on

windows did not adopt this standard and kept using the 1 KB is 1024 bytes tho
so it really depends on what you use

[manic torrent]

wow thanks for this, also base 2 instead of base 10 is not bad, and that's now how it happened

EVERYONE used base2, except for hard drive manufacturers who wanted their numbers to be more higherer

[rough temple]

I'm not talking in terms of using it
I'm talking in terms of making exceptions to the metric system where kilo means 1024 instead of 1000

[harsh quartz]

Truly an American company at heart

[manic torrent]

bytes were never metric. There's 8 bits in a byte.

[rough temple]

of cours it's not, kilo is the metric unit i'm talking about

[manic torrent]

kilo is a metric prefix not a unit

[harsh quartz]

Kilo is just a multiplier, not a unit

Can we start measuring in kiloyards and kilomiles

[rough temple]

fair enough, thanks for correcting me on that

but that 1000 multiplier instead of 1024 still applies

[rough temple]

exceptions to the metric unit prefixes*
there

[trim pendant]

4080 or a 4090 for a high end pc which would be the best overhaul

[manic torrent]

... the 4090 is faster.

[rough temple]

what's your budget

[trim pendant]

3.5-4k

[trim pendant]

ik that but i just want some other opinion cause my friends saying i don't really need a 4090

[harsh quartz]

Kilo when used in the metric system means 1000, when used in a different system altogether, it can have a different meaning

[manic torrent]

You don't

[trim pendant]

igh

[manic torrent]

You asked which one is best - the 4090, ezpz

[harsh quartz]

Objectively, 4090, subjectively, get Whichever you want

[thin tulip]

"Press ANY key to begin."
"😭Help! I can't find the any key!"

Dumb joke I remembered.

Lol just list it in bytes at that point.

"Oh my gosh, Did you see some random person none of us know got married?"

"Uh...Congrats IG???...???"

[thin tulip]

Who they wxpect to need measurements that precise: "Oh no! I need to download something 2 KiB in size! I only have 2008 bytes left!"

[manic torrent]

....

[thin tulip]

What?

[wooden knoll]

what

[manic torrent]

that's not how measuring works

[thin tulip]

Wym?

KiB and byte are compatible.

I know 2008 is not a possible value to be left due to page size.

No, I mean the precision

[near nymph]

Dont use the heatsink. Remove it and use the one built in the motherboard?

[grim belfry]

You can contact your bank and get your online payment limit increased, if you perform high value transfers regularly. Here in Down Under Land at least, the North American banking system seems wack

[near nymph]

Oh they let me. $25k was the limit though

I needed to move $32k

[sonic spruce]

theres 1 heatsinks and 2 drives, idk what you mean

[sonic spruce]

@near nymph so what should i do then?

[near nymph]

Hmm... My health data is worth a cup of coffee???

lol

[near nymph]

Oh I can. But then I need to pay the bank for extra security

[grim belfry]

Lmao

What a joke

[near nymph]

If you are moving millions

You're considered high networth. You'll need a special fob that generates codes

To authenticate

[sonic spruce]

so can i put it in the top middle slot or no?

[grim belfry]

They're phasing out those physical TOTP generators here

[near nymph]

I need to get myself one of those when I go to China

So I can authenticate shit and not need to visit the branch

Don't wanna spend thousands on a flight 🤣

[near nymph]

HSBC should still use it?

[grim belfry]

Yeah you can still use them, most banks aren't issuing many new ones anymore though (In australia)

[near nymph]

Yeah they cost the bank money to run

When they can just do mobile authenticator that can be given to the regular joe. That infrastructure is already there

[covert cradle]

They only cost money to deploy, which is $10-20. You could even buy a programmable fob yourself. The bank isn't involved in how you've stored the shared secret.

[shy temple]

heyo

[grim belfry]

This. Except using your own TOTP token would most likely invalidate any fraud protections

[covert cradle]

Part of the appeal of those deployed fobs is the shared secret isn't extractable. Buying your own fob would only really be an option if they allow app totp where they just give you the shared secret as a QR code or string

Just added a 43" 4k tv as a side monitor, noticed my PC is a bit slow on the browser, it has a ryzen 5600x. Is the 4k screen really that CPU demanding? I thought the resolution only demands GPU

[opal thunder]

Dang I was about to say this before I read your message.

[manic torrent]

It depends.

[grim belfry]

[manic torrent]

Sometimes TVs can connect at 30hz which is terrible

[dreamy granite]

actually would make sense, many security keys allow for many different things, bundle them into a single one is always better.

[dreamy granite]

tvs has generally very very low input response, unless its gaming specific even then it can be horrible, nothing todo with your hardware thats just tvs. They are more good for displaying information then interactive things.

[potent timber]

[manic torrent]

Yes, but it's typically ok enough for browsing, depending on the TV.

removing the supporting screw causes it to hang off on just the PCIE slot

which stresses the fuck out of me

Alcohol and lighter

[potent cedar]

rotate computer 90 degrees so motherboard is lying flat over the ground

remove screw with one hand while holding gpu, then use that hand to put the screw somewhere else and unlatch the latch, then pull the gpu directly upwards (away from the motherboard) with both hands

[potent cedar]

this step is very helpful when dealing with ram too

[gentle slate]

[long briar]

...right?

[near nymph]

Yeah but my kitty got bit by it

[gentle slate]

tell ur cat to man up

cats outside get bit by bears and dogs. some centipede aint no danger

[near nymph]

It's a poossy. Its a female. She's of course gonna be a bitch

[gentle slate]

tell it to bite back.

[gentle slate]

mf do you know the scars I have from one aggressive feral female cat

which despite the extreme aggression, I fed and took care of.

[solemn axle]

It's pink

i like it

cute

[near nymph]

It's dead

[near nymph]

Mine is grooming me

Mine is too much of a bitch.

[long briar]

and thus my point proven

[gentle slate]

kiss it

[unique cloak]

hi chat!

[keen edge]

[manic torrent]

I live in Australia but I have a proper ISP

[grim belfry]

Dodo does have a bit of a history overselling CVCs

Launtel or AussieBB?

[manic torrent]

Launtel 🙂

Dodo is just yet another TPG sub brand.

[grim belfry]

[gilded stratus]

Can someone please explain why florida tries to kill its residence every week or so?

[manic torrent]

Florida is just terrible.

[gilded stratus]

it just tries to kill you every week. Its fineeee

Florida is deadass annoying sometimes though

[shut lichen]

What is it with Vodafone being consistently shit everywhere, then rebranding and still being shit

[grim belfry]

If you never leave the inner city they'd be fine.

Much cheaper than fucking telstra

[drifting bison]

I don't feel like starting any controversial augments today on this server lol

[grim belfry]

Do it

[drifting bison]

nah, cuz it’ll last for an entire week or momth

[grim belfry]

Go on

[drifting bison]

plus admins/mode are so fcking sensitive

[drifting bison]

ok, I need to think of something

[terse folio]

the local company on my country start making handheld too

[drifting bison]

gaming is so ass! cuz gaming companies want to brainwash us for our money.

[grim belfry]

🤨

I expected better tbh

[drifting bison]

niga my brian isn't braining

[manic torrent]

it's a good thing it's a professional gaming device

[terse folio]

They use a full blown laptop cpu

Not Z1

[manic torrent]

That's not that much of a surprise or a big deal

[slim yacht]

technically a Z1 is also a full blown laptop cpu with slight tweasks

[harsh quartz]

Honestly good on them for a 16 and a 32 ram option, that’s what’s kept me away from handhelds so far is they’re on 16 unless you get one of the expensive ones like a GPD or Aya

[atomic vessel]

dunno why they got a npu in there tho

as far as i know there aren't any major uses for it in gaming yet

guess it just came with the 7840?

[harsh quartz]

Don’t most new chips just have one baked in?

[idle nymph]

I don't really see the point of more than 16 on a handheld so far

[slim yacht]

cities skyline on the move

[idle nymph]

i mean if yoou get to the point where you need 16 gig on a handheld the cpu is probably already dead by this point

[harsh quartz]

A perfect world would be a deck with sodimm modules so I can replace/upgrade my own,

Also would like to see if 32 can increase the lows/drops in more demanding titles like 2077

[austere shale]

Honestly ram is so cheap in the grand scheme of things I wouldn’t mind paying the extra couple dollars for 32 just to be 100% safe

[woven dust]

Hi chat

[shell yew]

calc speedrun in a week for data science

not too shabby so far, in the fifth day of holiday after igcse test

needing some help rn, any recommended peeps for maths in general?

[stoic beacon]

The textbook of whatever class you're currently taking.

[shell yew]

imma try, thx :3

[harsh quartz]

That’s my thing. It would probably be like 20-30$ more for a 32gb variant

[drifting yacht]

wtf is this, good luck i would never be able to do that

[timber nimbus]

well then

[lilac bear]

well then

[strange elk]

Task failed successfully

[timber nimbus]

I may need a new motherboard

it's over 10 years old

[dreamy python]

thx

[full fossil]

hmmm

[fringe lily]

Am i the only one but like when i clikc the comments of a twitter post it shows me other posts like wtf

Are people just reposting stuff in comments

[wispy marsh]

Has LTT announced the small backback?

[wispy marsh]

Are you signed in?

[fringe lily]

Yeah

[wispy marsh]

Hmm

[harsh quartz]

Don’t think so, there’s the tech sack though

[lilac bear]

small price of $300

[harsh quartz]

Brand it the Linus sized backpack

[river solstice]

get a dell ultrasharp, those are under 300$ and have a delta e < 2

[twilit palm]

bothers me to no end that youtube won't fill my screen. In this case the recording is the same aspect ratio as the screen and yet I am getting these black bars:

we should make youtube bankrupt over this

tear down the walls of youtube HQ

[zinc monolith]

what happened to this server?

I haven't checked since a few months ago

[graceful burrow]

It is
The server

Idk what you mean by what's happened not really anything has changed in the past few months

[stoic beacon]

Gumball and Iheuzio are gone, only to be replaced by 10 more of each

[graceful burrow]

Many more are gone thankfully

[zinc monolith]

#announcements

[zinc oracle]

Oh that's still there lmfao

[graceful burrow]

You actually believing that for some reason? You can't be real dude

Look at the date it was posted
What day comes immediately after that

I'll wait

[zinc oracle]

Or click on the link

[zinc monolith]

bruh

that's just bad timing

[graceful burrow]

It's quite easy to sus out what was going on, actually

[wispy marsh]

The link brings you to the full documentation stack for the business process

[graceful burrow]

Especially given maze bank is a fake bank in grand theft auto

[zinc monolith]

yeah I forgor that existed

[wispy marsh]

You can find the relevant documents at https://lttstore.com/products/screwdriver

[zinc monolith]

april's over

[graceful burrow]

Yet you still fell for it

Idk what kind of reaction you expect lol

[potent timber]

"WARNING: Not compliant with airport security restrictions in some countries (including but not limited to US and Canada). Verify all security/travel restrictions before traveling with your screwdriver!" - uh?

[stoic beacon]

Certain countries have laws about how long of a metal object you can bring with you. This is just a warning to say that it may get taken away at airport security.

Linus has talked about how he gets around that in Canada by using a Stubby with the extension so that it's not the full length

[brave flare]

hi

I think I might get a gaming laptop for gaming and college

I’ve been looking at the rog zephyrus g16

[stoic beacon]

That's a really good laptop. Just make sure you buy a config with enough storage and ram for your needs

They aren't all created equal

[brave flare]

I will most likely just get a model with 32gb and 1tb storage

1TB should be more than enough considering most of the schoolwork is probably going to be cloud based storage

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, easily

[brave flare]

Although I have looked into the 2TB one just because

[lilac bear]

pay extra fuck your money

[crisp notch]

if i bought one of those lil usb hubs that go on your mb and filled it with usbs that have various operation systems on them, could i technically have as many operation systems as i'd like (as long as i have enough usb ports)

[tidal minnow]

I mean you can do it without using a usb hub by simply partitioning your drive.

[crisp notch]

could i also do that with an external drive?

[tidal minnow]

Not too sure. Probably

I would be careful.

If you dont know what youre doing (like me)

[crisp notch]

i most likely won't know

[brave flare]

TRUE

[stoic beacon]

If you're doing it with an external drive, you would just live boot. You will not have good performance though compared to a separate partition

[tidal minnow]

You could end up screwing your main os if you dont allocate enough storage etc for.

[crisp notch]

dang

[brave flare]

its not even my money its the cities @lilac bear

[ionic abyss]

so when buying ddr5 i should only grab the 7200 or 8000 ram right

ooh

one company offers ddr5 9200 ram

[long briar]

Yes

the more expensive the better the ram

[gray zephyr]

why linus still with the galaxy note 9 ?

[stoic beacon]

Watch the last 110 hours of WAN show, you'll know why

It's mostly because it works and he doesn't care about anything that has come out phone-wise since

[gray zephyr]

but he is a techy person , i am only interested in newer phone to get the fastest experience

i remember he said he will be keeping the note 9 and not go note 10 because of audio jack , and now i am sure it really doesnt matter

[stoic beacon]

He's a realistic person. The Note 9 already does more than what he needs, so why upgrade?

[graceful burrow]

Just because someone's techy doesn't mean they require the latest products lmao

[stoic beacon]

Imagine a techy person using an outdated PC, for example. Absurd!

[graceful burrow]

Most people here are techy
Most people here also don't have a 14900ks and a 4090

[harsh quartz]

Techy and frugal? might as well be the Easter bunny

[graceful burrow]

That's a gross assumption of a large group of people

[brave flare]

the easter bunny isnt real?

[graceful burrow]

Good job you unraveled the joke

[harsh quartz]

I also never said that, you did

[shut lichen]

I still use the note 9 too

Great phone

[harsh quartz]

The shake it up line got me

[long briar]

Gamers Nexus with his FX8350 hahaha

[graceful burrow]

If I were him I wouldn't upgrade because I needed the performance boost
I'd upgrade to increase efficiency lmao

[vapid smelt]

that he had to make even slower because the mbo was having problems

[long briar]

Well he had a Samsung Fold because of the novelty of having a folding phone

[long briar]

exactlty.

[jaunty compass]

Of course they do

Everyone has the most modern specs smh

8k RTX 6090 ti

I9 16420k

[upbeat hill]

I do not have new specs by any means lol.

Hi I'm new lol.

[vapid smelt]

im old

[jaunty compass]

(I'm being sarcastic)

[upbeat hill]

(I suck at understanding sarcasm lol.)

[jaunty compass]

I'm playing Minecraft on a 2ds I bought yesterday for $80

[upbeat hill]

I'm jealous.

[jaunty compass]

Yeah it's a really good price for a new 2ds xl

[upbeat hill]

I wish I still had my 3ds.

[vapid smelt]

i thought the 2ds looked like this

[jaunty compass]

That's the old 2ds

[graceful burrow]

They're both 2ds'

[jaunty compass]

This is the new 2ds xl

It's the updated better 2ds model

[upbeat hill]

Sick!

[jaunty compass]

It has a bigger screen, faster CPU, and more ram

[vapid smelt]

nah clearly the old model is better since it doesnt have a hinge that can break

[graceful burrow]

honestly
Got you there

[jaunty compass]

That is a pretty fair point

But the old model can't really play half Life

[calm swan]

new 2ds for $80 goddamn

i would kill for that
