Hi

Channel Super Fun revive when

[gilded stratus]

Anybody know how to make an xbox one fan go constant fullspeed?

[graceful burrow]

give it a different pwm signal or just take the pwm signal away and just power 12v/gnd
assuming it's a 12v fan

[gilded stratus]

How would i change the signal?

[graceful burrow]

by generating your own pwm signal

[gilded stratus]

Uhh

[graceful burrow]

sounds like you'r'e in over your head

[gilded stratus]

I just want it to have good cooling 😦

[lilac bear]

submerge the PC in water

[gilded stratus]

Not a pc

[harsh quartz]

Replace pc with whatever it is

[brave quartz]

submerge the xbox in water

[gilded stratus]

No

Xbox is my pride and joy

[rustic trellis]

[gleaming harbor]

i wonder if somebody tried flex tape on the computer parts

[hexed laurel]

I’ll do it

[gleaming harbor]

nvm someone did it

[eager notch]

Give it 48v it will go even faster

[gilded stratus]

How 😭😭

[pliant karma]

To the point it takes off yes

[eager notch]

Get ebike battery,

Wire directly to positive and negative terminals

[near nymph]

Put on better thermal paste before that 😂

[eager notch]

Give it 200v DC and you get yourself a tiny jet engine

[pliant karma]

Throw some wings and remote controlled ailerons/flaps and a tail

[gilded stratus]

Broo im broke asf just tryna make this thing last longer than yalls fathers

Hey i just made one of my first real websites that wasent just a test, can yall check it out and give me some tips?
http://ashare.mooo.com/
really proud of it (mostly because it works)

[full fossil]

Who did that lmao

i am not surprised at all

Going to have to add a disclaimer

jesus christ

i am not downloading that zip

malware everywhere

the internet is a horrible place

i didnt download anything but im running a scan

everytime i reload the page i lost a piece of my soul

i knew this would happen, but the way you corrupt everything you touch with no hesitation is truly disgusting

it is also kinda funny seeing a midget tho

even if they are on the ground, and naked

im trying to get approved by Adsense so im going to stop uploads for now

[solemn axle]

https://letsencrypt.org/

[full fossil]

whats this? Https?

[solemn axle]

It would be nice to have

[grim belfry]

Adsense is very picky

[full fossil]

yes

any alternatives?

[full fossil]

i suppose ill look into it

[grim belfry]

Most other ad networks are just malware

[solemn axle]

how do you host it?

[full fossil]

node.js on aws

no bully pls

[solemn axle]

if you have an access to the terminal, you can use nginx to as a reverse proxy that will wrap the traffic

[full fossil]

i do, that could work

[grim belfry]

You’ll also need to add a gdpr banner and privacy policy for Adsense

[full fossil]

Trying to setup the british banner one

the privacy policy is that we dont record anything and we dont know who you are, because we dont care

[grim belfry]

You also need “valuable content”

[solemn axle]

i recommended let's encrypt because it is the easiest and free method to get cert

[full fossil]

bleh

[full fossil]

sounds good,

[full fossil]

ill just upload a png called "valuable content" and its a ms paint of the google logo that says "please let me have ads"

appease their humor

if thats the word

[solemn axle]

tbh the best file upload service i've seen and that i liked a lot was transfer.sh

[full fossil]

thank you

i was going for a anonfiles.com kind of thing

they got shut down 😦

[solemn axle]

since it allowed to upload files using curl

yep, this is why we can't have nice things

[full fossil]

i mean, i could TRY to implement that

[solemn axle]

:hmm: maybe i should selfhost one

[grim belfry]

As a publisher, you are responsible for ensuring that all user-generated content on your site or app complies with all applicable Program policies.

[full fossil]

jeez

well i need money somehow

donations?

[grim belfry]

Responsibility

[full fossil]

no

[prime solstice]

A job

[full fossil]

No!

[grim belfry]

Unless you’ve got hundreds of thousands of active users Adsense is basically nothing

[full fossil]

your right

i was just doing it was cause i was bored

maybe i do need a job

Ok, ill think on this. Thanks a lot!

[grim belfry]

Also keep in mind if somebody uploads illegal content you’d be responsible for that

[solemn axle]

first in all add certs, tech related people will never fill any form on the http site

also encryption would be nice

[full fossil]

that is what i was going to do first

[solemn axle]

tbh i'm not sure how does GDPR works with all this

[full fossil]

the tos was kinda my first and last line of defense for that...

[alpine gale]

Yeah... uh... I would recommend looking into the legalities of that. While user generated content is somewhat the responsibility of the users, a hosting provider is legally liable for certain types of content, no matter what.

[grim belfry]

Yeah

[full fossil]

a note that says "dont do illegal stuff please?"

[grim belfry]

ToS won’t just magically make you not responsible for distributing CSAM

[full fossil]

yeah, that will hold up

[full fossil]

could make it a private thing

you just get a link instead of it being displayed?

that could help

[alpine gale]

That doesn't absolve you of legal responsibilities to not host ... certain content I won't speak of here.

[full fossil]

i have seen the content you speak of

i regret my creation

[alpine gale]

Right so then you know. 🤣 Unmonitored file hosting is a dangerous game.

[grim belfry]

I guarantee you there is worse out there, too

[full fossil]

i believe you

i once delved a bit too deep into the internet

[solemn axle]

let's say the content is encrypted and you can't be certain what is inside it, how do you (as a hoster) handle it?

[shut lichen]

You absolutely have to moderate the files uploaded

[full fossil]

that is good

[grim belfry]

It’s probably not worth the legal risk

[shut lichen]

You will be absolutely destroyed legally if you don't

[alpine gale]

That's one of the ways to get around it. Tis why many messaging servers offer end to end encryption. Er, well, they don't do it to specifically encourage sharing of immoral / illegal content - they do it for user privacy, but it just so happens to also absolve them of any liabilities because they have no way to view encrypted content.

[grim belfry]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_aspects_of_file_sharing

[full fossil]

hm, maybe dont make it all public, encryption, and some extra legal mumbo jumbo to try and help

just to start

[full fossil]

Maybe, "Hey we encrypt all content once we receive it to protect your privacy against data leaks!" How can we see the content if its encrypted

[solemn axle]

It could work expect you live in Russia

[alpine gale]

If your service is doing the encryption, that means you are responsible to verify it's not illegal prior to encryption. The reason MEGA continues operating today is because -- exactly what @grim belfry said below.

[grim belfry]

Encryption should be done on the client side

[full fossil]

thats what i meant

[upbeat crater]

I think I'm going to overclock my PSU from 550w to 850w

[grim belfry]

Thank you Kirashi

[full fossil]

cough

[grim belfry]

You too

[solemn axle]

They banned Tuta here because they couldn't provide decryption for E2E encrypted mail kekw

[alpine gale]

That sounds like you're actually overpowering your clock supply. PSU bursts into flames.

[upbeat crater]

According to physics, heat = energy. So I'm gonna go install my 4090ti in it and go burrrrrrrrr

[solemn axle]

I mean, it is entirely safe to use overclocked psu

Welp, into the BIOS we go

[tidal summit]

my friend wants to switch to windows 10 (hes currently using windows 11) should he switch? why or why not?

[barren apex]

if your server is providing the encryption then you are the one who is going to be royally screwed when your service gets seized by the feds... and you'll piss off all your customers

[alpine gale]

Windows 10 reaches end of life on 2025-10-14 so I wouldn't advise it unless they enjoy security risks.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-health/release-information

[shut lichen]

The only reason to continue using 10 now is if you have hardware not supported by 11

[solemn axle]

i had only one such case with acer laptop but after bios update it got fixed:
It was no longer possible to install any Windows on the machine, only linux after

[tidal summit]

if i switched to windows 11 would i be able to save my OBS settings?

im having a lot of problems with my pc right now and am thinking of switching

possibly virus?

restart the pc

[proven cave]

it did by it self ''

omfg i think i need to reset

[full fossil]

reset that shit

[clear kite]

really feels like it might be a virus to me, but im no expert

[proven cave]

could the temperture reader be lying

[barren apex]

I looked it up - exynos has had some major flops but was still used for a lot of tensor chips and was competing with qualcomms snapdragon in some areas - it just isn't "as good" as the competitors so you are correct

[full fossil]

unless u have your baby pics in the ssd

[proven cave]

and its like over 90c

the fans are so loud

[full fossil]

nah shit lags and does not complete with snapdragon

[proven cave]

and it just froze and went black

is it virus or overheating

[barren apex]

seems like it's a thermal throttling issue compared to snapdragon

[proven cave]

it was blowing out warm air

stupid acer nitro

[turbid trellis]

can anyone recommend a FOSS android contacts app?

[clear kite]

idk if that would mean it sucks. But since you end up paying the price of flagship with some phones or better chips for thhat price, it is less esirable

[clear kite]

do you use one?

[full fossil]

reset that shit unless you have your baby pics on the ssd

[proven cave]

thats gonna take ages to get my stuff back

and my games with my wifi

[dire wren]

should all transistor legs be shorted?

games you can redownload or reinstall, but any data should be prioritised like docs, pics and vids

fuck it if its broken and its lagging i have nothing else to do instead reset it

which exynos did you use?

idk ,the one on s23 fe

Exynos 2200 (4 nm) , for US sold ones, it;s the snapdragon 8 gen 1

so id assume it should be somewhat competetiive with that one

[coral pulsar]

I'm hearing ARM names

are we talking about phones

[full fossil]

nah bro shit heats up on standby

[clear kite]

yeah, about exynos chips vs the competition

[clear kite]

i think for some 8 gen 1 also did

[coral pulsar]

i have a xiaomi 9T

[clear kite]

but they probably fixed that

[full fossil]

besides 8 gen 1 is also very inefficient

[coral pulsar]

heats up fast, burns my hand when it's too hot.

i might actually need to change phone's soon.

[clear kite]

my sister has exynos 1280 with samsung a33, and it works really well for us, doesnt overheat either

[coral pulsar]

my phone heats up on standby, in my pocket

[clear kite]

ither the chip line is the issue or could just be that specific phone?

what pphone do you have?

[coral pulsar]

goes even up to good 60 degrees celsius sometimes

let's all just buy windows phones and be masochists

idk man, id say it's hard to say any specific chipsets are bad just based on, as far as im aware, just 1 anecodotal, experience lol

[coral pulsar]

maybe even put windows 10 on them

[clear kite]

like there are many who have had issues with 'better' chips too

[coral pulsar]

and play vice city in slideshow mode

[clear kite]

you can put windows 11 on some chips

[coral pulsar]

oh look my phone's hot again LMAO

[full fossil]

hmm yeah coz they are too strong for a MOBILE Lmao

[coral pulsar]

yeah

42 degrees

that's actually cool for this phone

i was 200mb free of storage

because of this

so i just reset my pc and my apps are gone just to find this out

[proven cave]

no ty i dont need that lol

i found the issue

[solemn axle]

k, i just linking it in case someone will need it

[proven cave]

yeah ive see nthat

now i got 147gb free storage

[solemn axle]

my windows partition is 128gb long

[proven cave]

i could prob free up more

[distant wren]

thats small 😮

[proven cave]

system files?

idk what that is

[solemn axle]

yep, the rest of the terabyte i made for linux

[proven cave]

oh that

mine is 512gb

and its filled with just crap

im too lazy to delete it

yeah there we go my fps is now at 1400 loll

and its not lagging anymore

god dammit i was about to reset just to find out i didnt need to

im so lucky

[solemn axle]

My linux system partition is 38mb and the rest 800 Gb are just personal files

LUL~1

[proven cave]

dayum

[solemn axle]

Since it is 38mb, i just put it in ram

[proven cave]

the fuck

you can store files in ram??

is it hard to do

[distant wren]

its just lost the moment you turn of the pc.

[proven cave]

nvm

[distant wren]

Thats how ram works 🤷🏻‍♂️ -> https://youtu.be/PVad0c2cljo RAM explained if you want to go in dept.

[solemn axle]

yes, it is called tmpfs and you can mount the ram as a disk to put files there, it is quite useful when you are converting a lot of video files and your drives are the bottleneck

[distant wren]

yeah but the moment your pc turns off its lost, so its just temporary 🤷🏻‍♂️

[solemn axle]

tbh it is the feature

you just need to copy them during boot every time

[solemn axle]

there are many cool things in linux, like ZRam that basically allows you to get +75% Ram for free

[solemn axle]

Also hibernation does prevent the data loss

[distant wren]

yeah but rather not want to have a live storage, one power out and you lost the files.

[distant wren]

yeah there was a youtube who used ping to have a txt document in live storage. it was awfull 😄 but it worked

[solemn axle]

in my case i put the entire root into tmpfs and /nix with /home on the ssd because i installed nixos, but on other distros i would mount /tmp as tmpfs instead

[distant wren]

but why?

[solemn axle]

• (system files + cache + some application intermediate files) on ram => system doesn't have to move it in ram to process (38mb isn't a big deal)
• Every boot nixos builds the system according to the system configuration => if i fucked up system config, reboot will fix it

[rocky knot]

Linux literally doesnt care how small your disk is. Itll work XD

[distant wren]

Ok, interesting so you setup a boot cmd to do this for you? Wrote a script which put it all in memory?

[solemn axle]

it'll sound stupid, and probably you have to do something like that on arch or debian, but on nixos you just... describe that your root partition is now in ram and it just works

[solemn axle]

As simple as

fileSystems."/" =
  { device = "none";
    fsType = "tmpfs";
  };

Hello, I need help comparing two tv, the LG C4 vs Samsung S90C.

[barren apex]

try rtings.com

[faint shore]

I am having a look, the LG looks like it has slightly better content Smoothing but the Samsung has slightly better colours and brightness

the LG supports Dolby Vision, is that worth worrying about?

250 quick estimate

[covert forum]

I just picked up a Logitech M170

[covert cradle]

List it for $500, accept any offers over $400.

[magic violet]

hiiiii

[full fossil]

hi

[brave osprey]

250 profit?

[torpid vortex]

Hey! I was hoping to get some opinions. I want to upgrade my pc and build one, but I want to sell my pre-built, just wondering what people think I could get for it. It’s an HP Omen with i7-6700 and 1070.

I know it’s old but it can still run games like Elden Ring really great.

New it had been like almost 2k CAD I think when first getting it (again have had it for some time now)

[balmy anchor]

after UI 6.1 update, where to find old Always On Display things? i liked my purple calendar with clock and now its just a regular clock in red which doesnt even fit with my phone color pallete

[graceful burrow]

I like the lack of context

[balmy anchor]

how should i tell then

nvm, thanks reddit, you fix everything

[covert cradle]

At most $200-250 USD*

[graceful burrow]

They already got an answer cause they crossposted multiple channels 💀

[covert cradle]

Oh lmao

[subtle bane]

hello

[torpid vortex]

No one was in here so I went over to the busier channel to have my question answered

No need to be a dick

[neon mesa]

Rip off for the buyer, but if anyone's offering yea game is game

[covert cradle]

Tbc, I'm not saying it should be worth that. If a buyer asked me if it's worth I'd say fuck no lmao. That's just the range that it's actually been sold for on eBay lol

[torpid vortex]

Yeah different people will pay different amounts

I really wish I built a pc when I bought my last one

Could have just upgraded parts

Welp

[covert cradle]

Always sell something the price that people are willing to pay

[torpid vortex]

I listed it for 1.2k on Facebook the other day cause I had no idea of worth and I got flamed

[covert cradle]

Not surprising. For 1.2k CAD someone could get a brand new prebuilt that smokes that rig

[torpid vortex]

So there’s really no way I can upgrade the pc even too huh?

[covert cradle]

That GTX 1070 is 90% of your PC's value, everything else in it is nearly worthless

[torpid vortex]

Damn really

I was hoping to get 1k cad out of this and then spend 2-3k cad for a new build, could I make something nice for like 1.5k cad

I’m going to be using it for gaming and work as I work from home as a marketer and designer

[covert cradle]

What games in particular?

Actually make a post in #1106613567966429224

[torpid vortex]

Sure

I’ll tag you when I post it for your feedback

[covert cradle]

Thanks, that'll allow others to provide feedback if I fuck up a recommendation. Gotta shower rn tho, so I'll be back in a bit.

Studying electric fields

Wich is comparable to studying the 16th century math

Don't know why but the school is almost saying to me study Euclid's elements fking book

[craggy rose]

We have a much more comprehensive way to think about it

Electromagnetism

Wich is governed by a way more powerful set of equations (Maxwell's equations)

Why schools

[unkempt bluff]

Umm some advice appreciated...
Wanted to not pay for windows given I had earlier paid for it for windows 10

[neon mesa]

You most likely won't need to

Just reinstall it regularly, without hardware changes it stays

Simply login with your MS account

I had reinstalled shit ton amount of times on my pc at this point without losing activation

[unkempt bluff]

Umm wanted to changed boot drive from a sata 3 to the gen 4 nvme

[neon mesa]

Yea, install windows there

Remove the sata drive just in case before installation

So that if the license didn't stick you can always go back to the sata installation

At this point I wonder if the server was just made in his name lol

[tawny hound]

he's on idle rn so he has the app open and on desktop

[unkempt bluff]

Tag linus?

[tawny hound]

no

but his user is linustech he's in the lmg staff role at the top

[unkempt bluff]

This is what - 7 years

[tawny hound]

like 6 and a half

maybe he talks in the staff channels

if they are a thing which im sure they are

or he probably talks the most in the floatplane members only chat

I got it for $240 at Micro Center open box, regular price is around $480

[arctic pollen]

What was open box about it? A lot of MC are bent pins, etc.

[marble pilot]

No they checked for that it's all good. Someone just had second thoughts and it sat for a while so they kept marking it down

[arctic pollen]

Damn that's lucky - my MC has no open box x670e

We got the MC extended warranty for 2 years anyway

[arctic pollen]

If I did that i'd have like $5,000 in MC warranties lol

I have used ASUS warranty a few times in the last few years and have been satisfied, but apparently I am the only one if you ask the internet lol

I've spent... Soo much on AliExpress. So nice. Buying stuff from the source

[shy shale]

I love how anime and kawaii are in the title but it's just all black

[near nymph]

😂

[tulip river]

wonder if i can make my own with the topography of Menachite Mountain

[shy shale]

AliBaba and TaoBao are similarly pleasant shopping experiences. Only con is the shipping times can be horrible if you need something NOW

[near nymph]

Their estimated delivery is BS. Usually comes before 😂

[near nymph]

Taobao... I'm illiterate hard to navigate

[shy shale]

The estimates tend to be fairly accurate for me, but since I'm closer to China it makes sense

[near nymph]

I'm in Canada. Stuff shows up in a week or two.

[tulip river]

ive broken resolve

[shy shale]

Still pretty fast to be honest

[shy shale]

Can you not like google translate the whole site

[near nymph]

Except looking up stuff is a bitch

[full fossil]

man i cant find a h series laptop

[near nymph]

I have to guess the name in Chinese 😂

If I search in English. Barely anything shows up

[shy shale]

Man don't do that to yourself just google translate or deepl it

[near nymph]

😂

My parents are Taiwanese. I ask them yo wtf you call this?

Usually. It's close enough

[shy shale]

Hey that works too I may be chinese but my Chinese is like hardly called usable

[near nymph]

My Chinese is Soo shit. I sat in the wrong train seat. Got cussed out by an old man then the train conductor apologized to me after seeing my passport. And cussed the old man who snitched and he was called a disgrace to the country.

Turns out First Class is just premium economy on high speed train. And business class is actually first class

[idle nymph]

thats actually crazy 💀

[near nymph]

Dang charging cables are cheap from China

I saw them even cheaper 19¥

[neon mesa]

graph theory and dynamic programming absolutely fucked my brain 10 times over

i'm having a harder time here than any other programming concepts i've gone through so far

by a few folds

[feral island]

Which one of these phones would be most worth buying. Keep in mind theyre almost the same price, spec wise one is better at one thing while the other is smth else, i just dont know which one to choose, (i have a galaxy A54 rn)

[neon mesa]

keep the A54, it's a decent phone

there's no reason to upgrade unless you heavily play mobile games

[feral island]

Its battery is not doing well anymore. Nor is the camera on par with what i do.

[neon mesa]

ah the camera, yea the A54 is mid

[grim belfry]

Those two options are not much of an upgrade either

[neon mesa]

how much is google pixel

[feral island]

What about a xiaomi 13T

[feral island]

The pixel 8A is 4299 DKK

[neon mesa]

personally not a fan of xiaomi (crap OS)

[grim belfry]

I'd get a used/refurb flagship

[neon mesa]

pixels are known for their superb cameras

probably your best option if you want the best bang for your back in camera quality

[feral island]

My budget is 5000 DKK / 727 USD / 670 euro max,

[feral island]

The pixel 8A just seems tiny,

[neon mesa]

how much is the regular 8

[feral island]

5699

I think, and the Regular S24 is 5499

[grim belfry]

Pixel 7/7 Pro?

[feral island]

3990 DKK,

[neon mesa]

MKBHD's "Camera ELO" ranking

Pixel 8A has the same camera as 7A

[feral island]

Ah

[neon mesa]

yea the 8A is the best camera quality/dollar around

[grim belfry]

Other than an actual camera of course

[feral island]

Battery life tho. Id like to be able to watch movies. My current phone can handle youtube for 4 hours before it dies

[grim belfry]

Pixel 7/7 Pro with budget for a battery replacement in a year or so?

[feral island]

How good is the Nothing 2 as its the only one within budget that has wireless charging

[feral island]

The photos i take are landscape astrophotography. Does it handle low-light good?

[neon mesa]

the 8a also has wireless

[grim belfry]

Very well

[feral island]

7.5 watts tho. Nothing 2 has 15 watts i think

[idle nymph]

apparently its a good phone, im on the nothing 1 and its great

[neon mesa]

nothing phone 2 is all the way at 18 in camera quality compared to literally first place
if camera is what you're seeking the pixel is the best one there

[near nymph]

I would go with OnePlus due to the brand and parts availability

Also... Wireless charging...

Generates heat and less efficient way of charging. More wear and tear on battery

If you want to keep the longevity of your battery. Slow charge 😂

[feral island]

Oh wait the regular pixel 8 is 4995 DKK

[near nymph]

Wait what country are you in?

[feral island]

Kingdom of denmark

[near nymph]

I would advise against Pixels...

[feral island]

Scandinavian nation
