So if you just use the basic b*tch Win11 Home you don't have to worry about it?

[pure knoll]

If you any version of Linux you'll never even hear of it 😏

[errant zenith]

Listen here you fucking duck not everyone is comfortable with using Linux

[pure knoll]

Na fr bro you need to chill out

[errant zenith]

I was only joking around

I'm hardly ever serious

[pure knoll]

Okay lmao

[errant zenith]

Question

If a laptop has a USB-C port does that automatically mean you can charge it with USB-C?

[pure knoll]

No

[errant zenith]

I didn't think so

[pure knoll]

Usually you have to read the specs

[errant zenith]

I figured it had to be specified

[pure knoll]

If there's no other charging ports then yeah probably unless it's wireless chargin

[errant zenith]

The laptop my mom is selling me is one of those circular plugs

Like the very skinny ones with the yellow on the tip

[pure knoll]

Barrel jack?

[errant zenith]

Yea but super skinny and with yellow on the tip

[summer folio]

I always charge my phones with my laptop USB-C charger though

[polar fern]

Just the tip?

The yellow is simply an insulator to keep the inside and outside electrically isolated from each other

It can be literally any color

[harsh quartz]

Random reasonless aggression isn’t that funny my guy

[night grotto]

hello

[gleaming compass]

Everyone that I have heard claim to be uncomfortable with using Linux turned out to already have used Linux, several daily

[strange elk]

I felt that way till this year

[severe gate]

Linux is horrible

Pirate

Unix is the way to go

[gleaming compass]

Which one?

[eager notch]

DOS or nothing

[desert dagger]

OSX obviously

[severe gate]

NASA one

[gleaming compass]

CP/M or QDOS?

[strange elk]

NT or Bu- wait..

[severe gate]

NASA uses Unix right?

[eager notch]

Yes

[strange elk]

Is that what you're basing your statement off?

[severe gate]

Yea

Cause nasa

[strange elk]

[gleaming compass]

I don't think we should be using an operating system that has "dirty" in the name

[desert dagger]

But thats what makes it exciting

[severe gate]

Is an official reveal of the Radeon 8000 series happening this year

[errant zenith]

So is it worth setting up that one feature in Windows 11 where you can get your texts on your PC?

[severe gate]

I get texts on my pc before it broke T.T

[strange elk]

I think you can respond but IMO not really.

[errant zenith]

So it doesn't work like I think it does

I'm over here thinking that it'll work like iMessage on a MacBook

[strange elk]

I don't know how you think it works. Can't compare to that but its definitely not as well integrated.

Its not run by a Microsoft or google ID if that's what you mean

[errant zenith]

So I wonder if there is a way to tweak it to where you can enter one in

[gleaming compass]

Most Android users should already be able to get text on their PC

[errant zenith]

Wdym?

[gleaming compass]

https://support.google.com/messages/answer/7611075

[errant zenith]

So there is a web based version of the app

[gleaming compass]

And Windows 11 version isn't yet another chromium/edge app?

[errant zenith]

So is there a way I can enable windows notifications like I can with several other websites like YT and Gmail?

[gleaming compass]

Yes, you can get toaster notifications

[tranquil yacht]

LMAO I give up.

[strange elk]

Can attest. Had to replace or repair windows more times than I can count

[tranquil yacht]

checking it 👍

[gleaming compass]

check XDA on how well TWRP works for your phone

but if I understand you correctly, the problem is that the default bootloader prohibits version rollbacks

[oblique quail]

@rustic badge how's it going

[tardy terrace]

You have to be using Google's specific texting app, and then you use this: https://messages.google.com/

[tranquil yacht]

I followed the installation instruction. What do I do now?

[hidden hill]

Screwdriver (and hat) delivered today. 10/10

[strange elk]

Huh

[errant zenith]

I don't enable this with every website but this sounds like one of the few that will enable it just because in case my mom needs to contact me or something and I'm not exactly looking at my phone

[tranquil yacht]

I flashed the boot.img for lineagoos for microG, about to install the ROM

[errant zenith]

What ROM are you installing?

[tranquil yacht]

Should I lock before or after installing the ROM

[tranquil yacht]

lineageos for microG

[errant zenith]

You mean Lineage OS?

[tranquil yacht]

Da

[errant zenith]

So speaking of Android ROMs I discovered something Interesting for PCs

[tranquil yacht]

Guess I'm installing the ROM before locking

[errant zenith]

If you wanted to turn your PC into an Android machine for whatever reason you can look into this https://blissos.org/

[strange elk]

They dont make the 8tb WD blues anymore

Kids have moved on from tide pods to just liquid tide

[strange elk]

Oh hey its that one store where you get the things.

[severe gate]

The good stuff?

[lilac bear]

the things store

[acoustic pond]

I love regardless of what costco you go to anywhere in the world they look the same lol

[severe gate]

That's not LTT relevant

[strange elk]

You aren't LTT relevant

[gleaming compass]

That has worked for me for other devices

[tranquil yacht]

To be fair, you didn't provide additional instructions and I wasn't able to find much online

[eager notch]

I see you're new around here, this chat isn't about LTT 90% of the time

This has been your first and final warning

[severe gate]

Warning for what?

Joking?

[strange elk]

Existing

[gleaming compass]

are trying a nightly build?

[tranquil yacht]

I'm using LineageOS for microG which is based of the nightly build so yeah

[gleaming compass]

you are using fastboot to flash the vbmeta and dtbo or using twrp?

[tranquil yacht]

You tood me to use twrp since fastboot didn't work

[gleaming compass]

yes, it is twrp that has always worked for me

[tranquil yacht]

RN it only booting to lineageos recovery when locked, attempting to spply update

[gleaming compass]

Did you perform a factory reset in recovery mode?

[tranquil yacht]

Yes, did it before proceeding the attempt

[eager notch]

Yep

[tranquil yacht]

Step 1/2 RN

[gleaming compass]

the lineageos wiki says you need to factor reset, the format data / factory reset

you need to make sure the data partition is formated with the new encryption key

otherwise it will fail to mount

the old encryption key is only known to the previous OS install

[severe gate]

My gif perms don't work

[gleaming compass]

welcome back to how to talk like an 80's IRC'er :P

[severe gate]

What's an 80s ircer

I'm not boomer enough for 26k dial up days

[gleaming compass]

I Repeat Classes was the discord for addicting college students into flunking their classes by spending all their time using the Internet Relay Chat protocol

[severe gate]

I flunked cause I drank too much

[gleaming compass]

you could use IRC over 2400 baud too, it was just painful

[severe gate]

Boomerific

[gleaming compass]

oh, that can cause more liver damage over time than IRC. however, the diet of IRC'ers also comes with health issues/warnings.

[gleaming compass]

you haven't lived until you can correctly whistle a 300 baud carrier tone well enough that another modem thinks you actually connected

[severe gate]

Was it an ircer that caused a near nuclear attack in that Soviet erao or?

[gleaming compass]

Are you bringing back up old Kevin Mitnick myths after he died and can't defend himself??

[severe gate]

No that 80s ai that would attack the Soviet union movie

[gleaming compass]

WOPR/Joshua?

[severe gate]

Idk

[gleaming compass]

Watch this documentary:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Who_Saved_the_World

https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_man_who_saved_the_world

[severe gate]

That 80s movie that kid tapped into NORAD that nearly ended the world

[gleaming compass]

And then ditched a day of high school and had a "Day Off"?

[severe gate]

Idk

[gleaming compass]

That is fiction. It turns out the USA didn't need a high school student to get the USA nuked, they almost accidently did it to themselves at Goldsboro, North Carolina

https://prologue.blogs.archives.gov/2021/01/22/brush-with-catastrophe-the-day-the-u-s-almost-nuked-itself/

[severe gate]

Damn

[gleaming compass]

Don't give children toys to end the world because they will eventually try playing with them

[severe gate]

I heard and read aliens from the galactic federation neutralized a nuke attack on the ussr

[gleaming compass]

Or as WOPR/Joshua says:

Strange game, only winning move is not to play.

[gleaming compass]

I would think still using 8 inch floppy disk would neutralize the USA from attacking the USSR

https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2019/10/air-force-finally-retires-8-inch-floppies-from-missile-launch-control-system/

Prolly but I like the alien answer better

[gleaming compass]

Well, the dolphins haven't left earth yet so we are still ok

[acoustic pond]

[severe gate]

We need to get past the moon preferably within this year

[gleaming compass]

We been past the moon. You missed both Voyager 1 and 2 since you aren't a boomer but trust me when I say we have been much farther.

You are hoping to see if the predictions of Capricorn One are true?

Are you able to watch things that might be region blocked to the USA?

[wary phoenix]

My evening so far. Pippa is my dog btw

[tranquil yacht]

Do you install using img or ADB sideloading when using TWRP?

[gleaming compass]

I always did adb sideloading and then TWRP

[tranquil yacht]

Wait....

[gleaming compass]

but either way the data partition must be reformated and the new encryption key established

[tranquil yacht]

OEM UNLOCK -> RECOVERY MODE -> Factory Reset -> Format data/factory reset -> Format data
Right?

[gleaming compass]

yes

wait

a second format data?

[severe gate]

I mean people not bots

[tranquil yacht]

Bruh

@gleaming compass

[gleaming compass]

hmmm ok

so can you sideload the lineageos zip?

[severe gate]

We should have sent a drilling probe to Europa decades ago

[tranquil yacht]

Why you no support heic Discord? >:[

[tranquil yacht]

Apply Update -> Apply from ADB
Right?

[hasty matrix]

hi

[gleaming compass]

maybe electronjs doesn't support heic yet?

[gleaming compass]

that should work

also do minig

[tranquil yacht]

Dafaq is minig? Is it another version of microG?

[gleaming compass]

oh, I mean microg

[mild tulip]

framework 16 comes in today 👐

[tranquil yacht]

Yeah, sideliading the lineageOS fork with microG

The issue is I can't pass the SafetyNet test because of device is unlocked error.

[gleaming compass]

it isn't truly android unless google can track you :P

[gleaming compass]

you need a banking app?

[severe gate]

To make money

[gleaming compass]

does the One Action even have NFC?

[tranquil yacht]

Well banking apps still work, just some features are wonk. I thought you said you were able to lock the device and still have lineageos working

[tranquil yacht]

Yes

[gleaming compass]

yes, I was able to lock the device

but then Magisk would kill safetynet

and I learned that paypal is actually more of an inconvenience

[tranquil yacht]

I'm not using Magisk

[gleaming compass]

so I got rid of paypal and life has been better

[gleaming compass]

well, I was

I think paypal and google wallet were the only apps being nasty

[tranquil yacht]

I'm going to press no. Do I reboot back into the bootloader to OEM LOCK or do I just boot normally?

[gleaming compass]

installation aborted?

why exit code 3 instead of 0?

you might need to ask on the lineage reddit? :(

[severe gate]

The Europa clipper mission is a joke they couldn't send a drill to get a sub into the ocean wtf

[tranquil yacht]

Oh that's me cancelling a previous attempt.

[gleaming compass]

ohhhh

[tranquil yacht]

Look at the lower one.

[gleaming compass]

As OceanGate will fail to tell you, getting a sub that can deal with the pressure of the ocean is non-trivial

[tranquil yacht]

I pressed "No". So normal boot or bootloader to OEM LOCK?

[severe gate]

NASA can do better than flybys

[gleaming compass]

try normal boot?

[gleaming compass]

yeah, not the same

it becomes much more complex to do what you are asking for

[severe gate]

They can do it

I believe in them

[gleaming compass]

also, NASA is trying to figure out how to get into space with Boeing as a partner so they need to now double check the door plugs actually have blots installed

[severe gate]

Blots or bolts

[gleaming compass]

yes

that logical operator will evaluate to true

[tranquil yacht]

Hehehe

[tranquil yacht]

:[

[severe gate]

Do u have inside contacts with nasa

[gleaming compass]

sigh...
https://wiki.lineageos.org/quirks/snet/

[tranquil yacht]

Well ####

[gleaming compass]

I think you might be to the point of needing Magisk to trick safetynet if you need it

[eager notch]

Large-nus

[gleaming compass]

No, I lost a lot of faith in them when I learned what NASA stands for :(

[severe gate]

I see

That sucks

They keep undermining my expectations

[gleaming compass]

Once you understand the true nature of NASA's name, you can set your expectations accordingly

[severe gate]

What do u mean enlighten me

I don't want to be ignorant

[rare otter]

Sup

[tranquil yacht]

Well, worth a shot. Is there a package I can get for that?

[severe gate]

Come on man don't leave me high n dry

[strange elk]

North American space assholes

[craggy rose]

JPL that does ALL the cool stuff, NASA is Just the admin

[severe gate]

I'll really

[craggy rose]

Based on that, you get the ISS shutting down, no more rockets and so on

They are doing administration in Wich it's just a desperate attempt to survive and make the Artemis program be viable

It's just sad

[craggy rose]

[craggy rose]

It's basically doing the same process that they did on Mars

[harsh quartz]

NASA does a lot of research in aeronautics too but no one likes to talk about that cause it ain’t flashy :p

[craggy rose]

Fair

[harsh quartz]

X-15 moment

[craggy rose]

That project was kinda cool

[harsh quartz]

rocket plane “kinda cool”

[craggy rose]

I mean, it was the first steps of a way cooler plane the x59

No Sonic boom directed to the ground

[harsh quartz]

Rocket plane from the 50s, btw

[craggy rose]

Yeah

[harsh quartz]

Sure modern planes might be cooler, but like, nasa was on some shit back then

[craggy rose]

Literally a rocket with some flaps and boom

[harsh quartz]

Strapping a rocket to buzz’s back and dropping him out of a nuclear bomber and saying “have fun” is some science fiction shit that they were pulling 70 years ago

[craggy rose]

They are just bringing new stuff to the table

Possible supersonic flights in the near future

[harsh quartz]

Already been done

[craggy rose]

Concord 2.0

[harsh quartz]

It doesn’t need to exist.

[craggy rose]

Commercial flights*

[craggy rose]

Fair

It's just cool

Exciting

[harsh quartz]

It isn’t commercially viable and is taking money/development away from better projects. It is cool tho, but less so since it’s literally already been done multiple times

Im hyped for BWB development and honestly that’s it, delta wings and variable pitch wings are cool, and supersonic is meh, but gimme some commercial bwb development and I’m down

[craggy rose]

Have you noticed that we haven't done something truly amazing in a while

Sure, AI stuff is big

[grim belfry]

Isn’t Silicon Valley just so innovative

[severe gate]

No u

[craggy rose]

More like guuber

Haha im so funny

[mortal kraken]

Europe had that technology just a century ago

It even crosses country borders, with no flights !

We need to have interstellar travel by now

I don't want to die of old age know people didn't make it past mars

[gilded quest]

I just
What

What does that even mean

[grim belfry]

I guess you can pay for London trains in the Uber app? Idk

[gilded quest]

I'm guessing you can just purchase tickets via Uber app if you find that more convenient?

[long briar]

you know what would be exciting? paying 25 bucks for a plane ticket across the country

[grim belfry]

Supersonic passenger travel is pretty stupid

[gleaming compass]

Kubrick made a movie just for you. You should watch it.

[harsh quartz]

Rent out the whole train

[gleaming compass]

Which part makes it exciting? Only paying $25 before you pay for other add-on fees like check luggage? Or the excitement of seeing the Boeing door plug disappear in mid-flight? :P

[long briar]

Spoken like a child

If I pay 100 bucks for check luggage it's still cheaper

And don't act like Airbus doesn't have issues either

[harsh quartz]

Bruh if I could pay 25$ for any air travel I’d do it just to fuckin do it, take a weekend trip to Washington or something

[long briar]

We need more economic and efficient travel. Cheaper for the consumer, better for the environment

we do not need supersonic travel.

[harsh quartz]

Supersonic is fine, IF we get the other shit too. Making the other stuff worse just to get to supersonic isn’t chill

[long briar]

that's.... what supersonic is right now

very inefficient and expensive compared to traditional airliners

[harsh quartz]

I’m aware. And you’ll see above I said that the concord 2.0 is a stupid idea

[severe gate]

Which movie

[long briar]

Yep.

I fully agree

[harsh quartz]

BWB development needs to hurry up

[long briar]

Now with that said - they can take some technologies used in Concorde to increase efficiency

[gleaming compass]

https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/2001_a_space_odyssey

[long briar]

Which they already have

[harsh quartz]

It could actually be a meaningful change to air travel

[harsh quartz]

Overrated movie

[gleaming compass]

You just don't like monkeys

[severe gate]

NASA needs to do more than that not enough

[harsh quartz]

I don’t like kubrick films

[gleaming compass]

Even Dr Strangelove? :(

[harsh quartz]

No

[gleaming compass]

Even Full Metal Jacket?

[harsh quartz]

And the shining was the most confusing and boring thing I’ve ever seen put to film

[harsh quartz]

Never seen it and don’t care to, I don’t like kubrick movies

[gleaming compass]

Yeah, that movie was design to troll everyone

[long briar]

Winglets on the ends of wings to reduce turbulence was taken straight out of the military research, and benefits everyone.

[gleaming compass]

Kubrick would get fined for a hostile work environment if he made the Shining today

[harsh quartz]

Bwb was developed for stealth purposes and has been shown to work in bombers, but hasn’t taken off in commercial cause the commercial industry is too “dynamic and unstable”

[harsh quartz]

Kubrick should be fined anytime someone has to watch that movie

The reference to it in ready player 1 was better than the movie itself

[long briar]

I mean I think the bigger issue is size

[gleaming compass]

Only good reference in that movie was the Atari 2600 Adventure

[long briar]

Making a bwb that carries as many people as say, a 787 dreamliner is very difficult and honestly kind of impractical

[harsh quartz]

The b2 is not a small aircraft. The issue is keeping a pressurized vessel that isn’t just a tube.

[gleaming compass]

All the other references in Ready Player One felt forced

[long briar]

B2's design would be more like sitting on a small ferry in the air

rather than a plane

[gleaming compass]

I rather see a levtrain

[harsh quartz]

Trains are cool but very impractical in modern American

[long briar]

Not enough people would take it

It works in very densely populated countries like China and Japan

[harsh quartz]

For one we dont even have a power grid to sustain it

[long briar]

and yea that

[grim belfry]

Also your laws that give freight priority on the mainline

[harsh quartz]

Power is what needs to be figured out first, and that’s actually having good, reliable development here recently. After power, transport becomes cheaper and more reliable.

[gleaming compass]

Are current one is going to collapse soon anyways so why not make the move to thorium now?

No north american country can do this

[gleaming compass]

Of course not, they operate in metric, not based a king's foot :P

[long briar]

Most countries can't do that, actually

[polar fern]

All countries use metric.

[long briar]

USA doesn't

[polar fern]

Yes we do

[grim belfry]

Not all countries use all metric

[long briar]

they will use anything but metric

[harsh quartz]

We use metric for a lot more than y’all realize tbh

[polar fern]

What size are soda bottles?

[grim belfry]

What the fuck is a kilometre?

[long briar]

You also substitute literally anything for the imperial system

[long briar]

what size is a cup at mcd's?

[polar fern]

No

[harsh quartz]

Large

[polar fern]

We use metric everywhere.

[long briar]

oz...

[gleaming compass]

Some americans believe the Metric Conversion Act of 1975 is a federal law :P

[harsh quartz]

Who the fuck knows? You think anyone cares? It’s a mothafuckin large

[polar fern]

Dunno I don’t eat fast food

[long briar]

I honestly don't know either, I just know they're measured in ounces

[long briar]

Yea so instead of saying how big a pothole is

[harsh quartz]

Maybe they are, but the menu is small/medium/large

[long briar]

you avoid both metric and imperial system and go straight to dishwashers

[gleaming compass]

how do you super size?

[long briar]

I went to the states and saw KFC have a pop bucket..

[harsh quartz]

Oooo, had a joke here, have to hold my tongue

[long briar]

people buy buckets of pop from kfc???

[harsh quartz]

Firstly, it’s a coke bucket, saying it’s a pop bucket is EASILY misread as something else. Secondly, pretty sure that was a joke item

[gleaming compass]

A&W would sell root beer by the gallon

[harsh quartz]

It’s sold by the liter, why not the gallon?

[long briar]

.

[gleaming compass]

But as part of the drive through

[harsh quartz]

And? They sell root beer. You went to a root beer shop. They sell small root beers. They sell big root beers. What’d you expect?

[gleaming compass]

shrug I guess I expected a hot dog and onion rings

[harsh quartz]

4$? Gahdamn that’s cheap, gimme

[gleaming compass]

AMC movie theater popcorn "tub" is 1090 calories before adding butter and is refillable :P

[long briar]

you know what's sad? You can get pop (soda) for cheaper than water.

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, what about it?

[long briar]

I just said it's sad

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, don’t tell nestle or they’ll start raising the price of coke too

[polar fern]

The us uses the metric system.

[gleaming compass]

They can't pad the volume of water with CO2 like they can for soda pop :P

[gleaming compass]

why is fluid oz included then?

[long briar]

why is it after pounds of chocolate syrup?

[harsh quartz]

Because metric isn’t the only system in the world?

[long briar]

what is solid weight doing on a liquid packaging

[harsh quartz]

I know yall like to be special but yall ain’t the only ones to exist.

[long briar]

you don't see kilograms of ketchup on a ketchup bottle

[harsh quartz]

To call hersheys chocolate syrup a liquid is rough

[grim belfry]

A large in the USA is fucking massive lol

[long briar]

Oh yea on this note: a medium is a large in a lot of other countries...

[polar fern]

I show evidence that the United States uses the metric system and you point out the thing that I am not trying to show you. Just say “whoops I was wrong” and move on.

[long briar]

everything is just supersized in states

[long briar]

I don't think you understood the joke

[harsh quartz]

Everyone always says that, maybe everything else is just small

[gleaming compass]

You showed a bottle that says "8 oz per serving" which isn't metric

[long briar]

if you had read like a couple messages down, it was a reference to this comedy gold

[grim belfry]

USA vs Aus drink sizes lol

[polar fern]

Anyways. In my opinion, metric isn’t as “people-centric” as Fahrenheit for example. 100°F is not unusual but 100°C you’re going to be dead a while ago.

[harsh quartz]

Wow it’s almost as if our drink cups are sold by oz, so the juice company has to put serving size as oz, but they also put metric

[long briar]

They put metric on their stuff just like Samsung saying they support repairing their devices with an ifixit partnership

it's only a cover story

to make the government happy

[harsh quartz]

Firstly our larges are not fuckin 45 oz or whatever that is

[polar fern]

What do you mean to make the government happy? It’s literally the law. The government isn’t some moody teenager.

[gleaming compass]

Ok, off the top of your head, can you explain exactly how to mix up brine which will freeze at exactly 0F? Because I can tell you off the top of my head what to use to determine if you reached 0C. :P

[polar fern]

No, thankfully, I don’t have to mix brine.

[long briar]

A moody teenager is probably more capable of running a government

[harsh quartz]

Cool. Why the fuck would any of us know that in either temperature?

[grim belfry]

Idk man, have you looked at US politics lately? lmao /s

[harsh quartz]

It’s literally an old man

[long briar]

a few*

[polar fern]

that’s what happens when you allow extremists and money and outside actors to influence things. 🤷‍♂️

[grim belfry]

Old men are usually worse than teenagers

[harsh quartz]

Some old women too, just to be inclusive

[gleaming compass]

The definition of Celsius just require distilled water to determine both 0C and 100C

[grim belfry]

At sea level*

[long briar]

When an 80+ year old makes fun of the current president by calling it the white senior living home "where residents feel like presidents"... yea.

it's literally watching a trashcan race

[harsh quartz]

Cool. The fucks that got to do with anything I’ve said?

[full fossil]

lindus bech bips

[polar fern]

Michaelsoft Binbows.

[gleaming compass]

still makes a lot more sense than the freezing point of brine and the so-called average temperature of a health adult male

[long briar]

Sort of, distilled water at 1013.25 hPa (sea level)

[harsh quartz]

The funniest part of this “old man race” is that the current record for oldest president is the current president, before that it was the last one, and whoever wins the next election will have that title again.

[long briar]

Yep.

[grim belfry]

Don't worry, I'm team celsius

[long briar]

either president can use that campaign against the other and it would still fully apply

[harsh quartz]

Cool, and that’s why C is used in laboratory conditions, over here too btw just in case you didn’t know that. But for daily use, idc what the boiling temperature of water is. I wanna know, with as fine a precision is possible, how hot I need to expect it to be outside

[long briar]

all I know is the equilibrium point is -40, where -40C is the same as -40F

[long briar]

except... if I take someone from mexico, chances are their definition of "hot weather" is different from an average american's definition of "hot weather"

[crude inlet]

RTX 4090

[gleaming compass]

Who are you claiming is older than Hastings Banda was?

[harsh quartz]

That had nothing to do with what I’ve said at all

[grim belfry]

This conversation is just iOS vs Android. We all hate those conversations, right?

[long briar]

It does?

idc what the boiling temperature of water is. I wanna know, with as fine a precision is possible, how hot I need to expect it to be outside

[gleaming compass]

Why hate on iOS vs Android?

[harsh quartz]

Yes, I expect to know the degree outside, so that I know how hot I expect it to be. What’s that got to do with Mexico having a different definition of hot?

[long briar]

Like I went to China and the weather was 16C. That's warm by my Canadian standards, I got funny looks left and right when everyone else was wearing jackets.

[grim belfry]

Because it's a stupid argument. People have their preferences, just like iOS vs Android

[long briar]

F is completely arbitrary

100F is supposed to be hyperthermia and 0F is Hypothermia

[harsh quartz]

If I tell someone it’s 80 outside, they know what to expect, if I tell someone it’s 100 degrees, it’s fuckin hot, if I tell someone it’s 0, it’s fuckin cold. What does Mexico have to do with anything of this

[long briar]

And the range between that is linear... but it's just a number for most people

[grim belfry]

It is 19°C and I am wearing a jacket and am still cold

[long briar]

I used Mexico as an example, if you tell someone it's 80 outside, it may be hot to you but just warm to someone else.

[gleaming compass]

really, that is like room temp for me

19C is my prefer data center temp

[long briar]

also 0F in the winter here is warm enough for me to go out in t shirt or at most, a hoodie.

I would consider that comfortable weather.

[grim belfry]

Room temp is 23°C to me

[long briar]

Room temp for me is around 17C

[harsh quartz]

But that doesn’t matter. They will know what to expect based on their experiences, saying it’s relative had no bearing on what the actual temperature is. Which is exactly what I was talking about. The actual measured temperature.

[long briar]

right, which also proves my point. F is completely arbitrary.

[gleaming compass]

you don't have to try to use Xenon processors from the Intel

[harsh quartz]

No?

[grim belfry]

Xeon*
And my office is not a datacenter

[gleaming compass]

maybe not yet, give it time

[long briar]

it's not relative, it's just a number somewhere between where the "average" person would have hyper and hypothermia

the scale between it is linear

Take me as an example, I guess I wouldn't be average because I find 0F comfortable.

[merry gull]

i guess hating on discord is not allowed

[harsh quartz]

Cool, so with what I’m understanding from you, Celsius is also arbitrary, because 16 felt different to you than it did to people In China

[grim belfry]

The same goes for celcius and fahrenheit. They're both just stupid human ways of communicating something completey arbitrary

[long briar]

Celcius is based on freezing and boiling point of water at sea level

[gleaming compass]

What more did discord say other than hello?

[long briar]

We use that as a scale to say what the temperature is

[merry gull]

was just a developer tos update

[harsh quartz]

This is what I’m not understanding, how the FUCK is Fahrenheit more arbitrary than Celsius just because it “feels different in Mexico”

[grim belfry]

The best one is the one the people you communicate with most often use

[gleaming compass]

I thought they would give the developer stuff a ... REST :P

[harsh quartz]

This whole argument is the dumbest shit

[grim belfry]

It's like a language, there's no "best" language, it just depends on who you're communicating with

[long briar]

You're so hung up on Mexico you didn't understand. 100F may give an american hyperthermia (not even true), but be completely normal to someone in a hot climate

[harsh quartz]

It may “feel normal” but they will still fuckin die

[gleaming compass]

you are leaving out how humid the location is, is it a dry heat or wet heat? :P

[harsh quartz]

This is why we use a heat index, Celsius ALSO has this same issue btw

[long briar]

Those acclimated to those temperatures won't

[harsh quartz]

They will still have heatstroke. Even if your “acclimated” to last a little longer, you WILL have heatstroke. Same with cold, you can be “resistant” to the cold, but your hand will STILL freeze off

[grim belfry]

Brits die all the time due to hyperthermia in like 26-28°C

[gleaming compass]

so what is the prefer temperature of immortals?

[long briar]

unlucky

[grim belfry]

ikr bit of a skill issue

[harsh quartz]

I would imagine pretty hot since it had something to do with phoenixs rising and those are made of fire

[grim belfry]

Depends which mythology you subscribe to

[harsh quartz]

I’m just still fuckin baffled by the Mexico comment Ngl

[long briar]

Why are you so hung up on it...

[gleaming compass]

oh, I expected you to go the cryostorage direction

[harsh quartz]

Idk something about it, makes me laugh so fuckin hard

Just Mexicans being fully immune to heatstroke apparently :p

[long briar]

we ❤️ mexico

[long briar]

They're far more resilient than your average north american

I wouldn't survive a day in 86F weather

but I could do 0 just fine

[harsh quartz]

Yeah the same way people in Alaska are more resilient to cold but still wear 4 coats :p

[long briar]

I've done it before

[long briar]

We're colder than Alaska in winters usually actually

[gleaming compass]

I wish Palin was always wearing 4 coat

[harsh quartz]

Cool, point of that was missed :p

[long briar]

bring an Alaskan to somewhere 0F they'd probably do just fine

bring a floridian to 0F they might die of shock

the world can be cold???

Alaska has the benefit of mountains blocking air currents that mean their weather is generally not as extreme

[gleaming compass]

So that is the best way to put the De in DeSantis?

[long briar]

Our winters get close to Antarctica (there's about a week where we're colder than Antarctica too)

[long briar]

Perchance.

[gleaming compass]

what about 255 Kelvin?

[long briar]

Same thing ish

255K - 273.15C = -18.15C ~ 0F

it's probably a bit off but it's close enough

[gleaming compass]

I just prefer my measurement system to have an absolute zero

[long briar]

xd

absolute zero is fun

[gleaming compass]

superconductivity seems to get so much easier at that temp :P

[long briar]

but dipping your hands in the closest thing to absolute zero we have (LN2) is equally fun

having the leidenfrost effect happen with your hand is just different

[gleaming compass]

yeah, I'm not doing that

[long briar]

just like how you can hold a flame if your hands are wet, your hand turns LN2 to steam instantly because it's warm and forms a cushion around your hand

[gleaming compass]

I understand and I'm still not doing it

[long briar]

you gotta try it bro

live a little

[gleaming compass]

dry ice is my limit

[long briar]

awwww

LN2 is so weird

but it's so fun

just... don't use it too much

try making ice cream with LN2

you'll never get ice cream faster

[gleaming compass]

Speaking of living a little, you ever heard of Mathematica?

well, there is this guy Stephen Wolfram that made some money improving on the abacus with a program called Mathematica

and he has a private lake on his property

so sometimes when throwing parties they would toss samples of alkali metals in

[sharp turret]

It was over 100 F today where I am... 🫠

[severe gate]

Proof

[severe gate]

Is the 6800 xt worth keeping till Rx 9000 series?

[graceful burrow]

we dont know

https://tenor.com/view/crystal-ball-gif-25122500

[manic torrent]

So, two unreleased generations into the future.

If I had that kind of future knowledge I'd have stocks.

[severe gate]

You can easily judge using previous generations

[manic torrent]

... So then do it

[severe gate]

But from what I've seen of the 7000 series it's not worth upgrading and judging what maybe be 8000 not worth upgrading either

[graceful burrow]

we dont know

things can change entirely with a single product release

[manic torrent]

So what do you think anyone can possibly add to that?

[graceful burrow]

like bob said if i could see into the future id be playin stocks

[manic torrent]

When the 8600GT comes out it's going to be crushing everything, with an RRP of $300 and a performance that allows 4k ultra for everything.

[severe gate]

Whether their knowledge of how previous generations evolve to determine when a right time to upgrade would be

[manic torrent]

except that past performance is not an indication of future results

[severe gate]

It is in technology

[graceful burrow]

this might be the field where that's least true dude

[manic torrent]

so zen is predicted by bulldozer?

[graceful burrow]

if that was true what happened with zen 1
what happened with arc
what happened with 40 series nvidia

[manic torrent]

^^

[severe gate]

Could be presumable

[manic torrent]

Even if the tech followed that line, you're talking about tech vs pricing, which has a lot more inputs

[graceful burrow]

the only truly correct answer to your question is we dont know

go find and pay a statistician or someone to get your literal guess of an answer lmao

[grim belfry]

You sound like a super ad

Fees, rates and charges are indicitive and subject to change, read the PDS to see if this product is right for you

[near nymph]

Sup y'all

[severe gate]

How can u like tech and be environmentally friendly

[manic torrent]

The thing is also - the value of money to one person is not the same as another, also the value of performance.

[near nymph]

Hmm... Buy used when possible?

[severe gate]

It's only performance I'm concerned with

[grim belfry]

Consume consciously

[manic torrent]

That's not what you said at all

[graceful burrow]

great news
we dont know the performance of rx 9000 series lmao
so even changing the goalpost wont get you an answer

[severe gate]

It is now

[manic torrent]

Ezpz if you only care about performance buy the newest fastest card every time.

[grim belfry]

It'll be at least 69% faster than a GT 710. That's my prediction

[severe gate]

Not if you're poor

[manic torrent]

So don't be poor.

[near nymph]

Buy local?
Buys from AliExpress cuz it's cheaper

[grim belfry]

Buying certain things from Ali would probably be more environmentally friendly

[severe gate]

Predicting based on past events is still accurate

[manic torrent]

.... But why? There's no need to make that accurate a prediction?

[graceful burrow]

you still havent explained the 3 examples that prove you wrong that i provided

[manic torrent]

Buy something that suits your needs and budget

You're just trying to avoid buyers remorse, because you don't understand what a sunk cost fallacy is.

[near nymph]

Don't be poor. I heard the adult entertainment industry pays well. Alot of 💙 🤍 girls out there looking for people to help manage their profiles

[severe gate]

Try the free market sometime but it's clear noone can give me an answer

[graceful burrow]

yeah we told you that right off the bat

[severe gate]

Alrighty then

[cunning falcon]

anyone know why watching videos or even using apple music, basically anything browser related causes my games to have bad lag and frame drops constantly?

[near nymph]

Hmm I wonder how fast it'll get here

[cunning falcon]

i turn my fps counter on in fortnite and it stays at my framecap when i don't have a video playing, second i hit play, fps immediately drops and the game stutters

[manic torrent]

Because your browser is using GPU acceleration and your GPU is mid AF

And/or you have Nvidia video upscaling enabled

[cunning falcon]

nvidia video upscaling? might be that

I have my browsers hardware acceleration off and im pretty sure my 4070 super aint mid af

[graceful burrow]

technically it's exactly mid af in the product stack lol

[cunning falcon]

well 😭

[manic torrent]

If you have GPU acceleration turned off you might be CPU limited?

[cunning falcon]

7800x3d? hmm

[manic torrent]

Also what quality

[cunning falcon]

720p i believe the video was

i had a twitch stream up earlier testing that too

and someone in chat gifted subs and it made my game lag...

[manic torrent]

I mean, I can do that running 4k games with my 5700x and 3080ti

[cunning falcon]

it might be some setting i have turned on somewhere or software related because i always have issues with amd

haven't had any issue like this before on either of my other systems

[manic torrent]

Do you have shit ram ? Or an fclk ratio that isn't 1:1

[shut lichen]

Twitch's frontend is pretty poorly optimised

Enough chaos can make it fall minutes behind what's actually happening

[cunning falcon]

hm?

[alpine gale]

I'm with Ethan here. Twitch's video player is one of the worst when it decides to have a performance hissy fit. I've taken to running it specifically in a separate browser so it doesn't interfere with anything else I'm doing. (What I'm saying is don't use Twitch's video player for testing purposes. It's not worth it.)

[tidal knoll]

Im i cooked chat i have 90$ for a case and ram? Think ill get anything wit that

[cunning falcon]

well the issue happens with anything else video realted

related*

like even full screen apple music in a browser caused lag

or a low quality youtube video

[shut lichen]

I was talking about the rest of the ui, not the player itself

[alpine gale]

Ah, I don't much use the rest of the UI cause I find it all over the place. Too many things in too many places.

[shut lichen]

long hype trains slow shit down majorly

[cunning falcon]

new windows update re enabled telemetry?? umm

that or i forgot to disable something on my new install?

I swear i had debloated and made sure telemetry was off

[graceful burrow]

what debloater did you use

[cunning falcon]

i don't even remember at this point this was a bit ago

[graceful burrow]

honestly knowing you used a debloater and knowing how many issues those cause i say reinstall windows

there's a nonzero chance that's what caused it

[cunning falcon]

not like that, i just used winaerotweaker to disable a bunch of shit

..

it was very basic things that i changed so

[severe gate]

You know I feel being judged alot with a negative impact on my mental health since I've joined PC gaming from nintendo

we don't allow the microwave on the same circuit as the rest of the data center

[full fossil]

true that

[grim belfry]

It's okay I can bring my own from home

[manic torrent]

Pie warmer it is 😄

[gleaming compass]

does it run on 208v?

[grim belfry]

Yes

[gleaming compass]

The Pi is only the secondary stratum 1 NTP server

[manic torrent]

We had all the lights go out in the theater at my school while I was on stage because of the pie warmer. That was... A long time ago

[frozen barn]

Quick question, this is all HYPOTHETICAL! Say you accidentally deleted system 32, what do you do afterwards? I'd need a detailed response and process of what to do

[manic torrent]

Reinstall

[keen cradle]

good morning bob

[manic torrent]

Also is it a quick question or do you want a detailed response and a process with sign off and steps to follow.

[manic torrent]

It is! I mean it's well into evening, but yes

[gleaming compass]

put in a fresh new hard drive, reinstall to the new hard drive and the pull data you still want to keep from your trashed OS install

[keen cradle]

lol

[grim belfry]

Or just don't delete system32 /s

[gleaming compass]

Or just don't use windows to being with? :P

[manic torrent]

That would require not being dumb as rocks

[grim belfry]

Oh. I'm out of luck in that case

[gleaming compass]

The security nightmare that is Microsoft Recall for Windows 11 seems to indicate the vendor considers all their users to be dumb as rocks. Who would ask for such a "feature"?

[manic torrent]

I've been using windows for like ... 30+ years? On and off? Not once, ever, have I deleted system32

[gleaming compass]

And never corrupted your registery?

[manic torrent]

Not that I can recall

[grim belfry]

Let's just pray that remote desktop is blanked for Recall

[gleaming compass]

I think I am allergic to the Windows registry system, each time I look into it I discover I have hives.

[manic torrent]

:eye roll:

Get certified in OpenStack. Broadcom has no control over the price of OpenStack and if you actually figure out all the components of it then you will never ask us for advise ever again because at that point you are probably certified as insane.

[grim belfry]

Become a certified SharePoint Expert

[gleaming compass]

I can azure you that SharePoint isn't the cloud

[grim belfry]

You can host SharePoint in the cloud

[gleaming compass]

Not the same

[grim belfry]

Shush

nvm Microsoft discontinued SharePoint certs

[gleaming compass]

oh darn

[grim belfry]

😢

[gleaming compass]

you can still learn about it without the merit badge/xbox achievement

[grim belfry]

It's moved to the teamwork certification

[gleaming compass]

gross

[grim belfry]

Teams ❤️

[gleaming compass]

have you used skype for busin... I mean teams?

[grim belfry]

Don't worry they haven't killed skype for business

[gleaming compass]

I know, they just renamed it to Teams

if you write any app for Teams, there is a ton of references to skype

[grim belfry]

ik

[gleaming compass]

And Adaptive Card has to be the worst schema ever created for messaging

[grim belfry]

Still better than Google's IM mess

[gleaming compass]

of which no two different platforms for Teams treat the Adaptive Card the same way

[gleaming compass]

They should aim a little higher and try to make something to compete with Slack

[grim belfry]

Slack is much more expensive unfortunately

[gleaming compass]

It is pathetic when a video game company can write a better business messaging app than the one Microsoft paid $8.5 billion for

[gleaming compass]

Want to hear a joke?

[grim belfry]

What

[gleaming compass]

Here is the previous name of the product we now call Slack:

[keen beacon]

for dram frequency, do I choose 3200 24x1.33x100 or 32x1.00x100

[grim belfry]

What a beautiful logo

[grim belfry]

CloudRAM 2.0

[keen beacon]

😹

[gleaming compass]

intel or amd?

[keen beacon]

Intel

on a i7 12700f

[gleaming compass]

enable XMP, maybe?

the whole point to XMP was to do that for you

[keen beacon]

yea ik but im tryna manually set them

xmp was bugging out

[gleaming compass]

do you have a bootable usb drive with memtest86+ to test after putting in manual values?

check the manual for the motherboard on the prefer format it is expecting dram frequencies in

you are going down a long rabbit hole

[keen beacon]

no worries I found it

[gleaming compass]

if XMP was buggy, try seeing if the is an updated BIOS/UEFI version

[keen beacon]

ye I updated bios xmp sometimes is weird for corsair but I got it working now

[gleaming compass]

cool

[ruby anvil]

ya'll reckon I can transport a small NUC computer in a backpack by airplane?

[grim belfry]

Yes

[ruby anvil]

And it wont be a problem with the components? I've transported laptops before, but I feel way more worried about transporting this device 🤣

[grim belfry]

They're basically just laptops :)

[chrome bison]

What do you guys think about the dark web?

[grim belfry]

It exists.

[chrome bison]

lol I know that but

I wanna discover something that will bring excitement in my life

[grim belfry]

If you want to commit crime and/or get scammed, use the dark web.

[dapper shard]

Come on now
Those aren't the only use case scenarios

[chrome bison]

I wanna use it to learn stuff about aliens

I have a good feeling there is a lot of info about aliens on the dark web

and my I’m scratching that part of the mind to explore so bad

[grim belfry]

Come on now, what do you think 90% of TOR users are doing on there?

[chrome bison]

buying drugs lol

[grim belfry]

Most aren't just checking facebook

[chrome bison]

Can I connect with people on TOR network to learn more about aliens

what are the pros and cons of my situation

[grim belfry]

Wasting your time
Getting put on another watchlist

[chrome bison]

but I wanna learn about aliens

I reallly do

[grim belfry]

Facebook does that

[chrome bison]

I think dark web is perfect place to learn more about them

think about it it won’t be available on clear net

It has to be available on dark web

[midnight pumice]

Does anybody know of any offshore sip trunk registration services? Like maybe in China or Russia.

That I could use with a pbx in the US

[grim belfry]

Sounds sus

Your answer is probably no

[dapper shard]

Fair enough

[midnight pumice]

I mean, it's not blatantly illegal, but can be used for illegal things

Just so I can do Caller ID spoofing

[dapper shard]

Btw would appreciate it if someone can diagnose what's happening to my laptop on the tech support channel

[midnight pumice]

Looks like a GPU issue

Or Ram

First try reseating ram

Or just drop it down to 1 stick if it's 2

[dapper shard]

Why does it happen only when it boots up tho

[grim belfry]

There are very few legitimate reasons for caller id spoofing

[midnight pumice]

Try a graphics driver

Not sure

[midnight pumice]

Right. But I am providing this service for a few other people I know to use

[dapper shard]

I updated the nvidia driver same issue
I switched to igpu to check and the issue still persists

[midnight pumice]

So I can't guarantee

[grim belfry]

So we cannot help :)

[midnight pumice]

We've used it to listen in on calls before

All good

I haven't even looked but I feel like I could probably find something

And just set up some kind of free pbx system in a vm

And use that to route

[grim belfry]

There are legitimate methods for having an Alphanumeric ID for SMS

[midnight pumice]

I used to do lots of funny things with call spoofing. Those are all past the statute of limitations now though

So I can talk about those openly

[midnight pumice]

You can get into other peoples voicemails and spoofing helps with SE

So they're pretty cautious about sip trunks in the us

[grim belfry]

Very smart

[midnight pumice]

I didn't admit to anything and if I ever do, it's because it was beyond 5-7 years ago

When I was a teen

And is past the statute of limitations

[slim token]

bruh what is this new youtube ui

[midnight pumice]

I'm just trying to get something set up for someone else right now

[midnight pumice]

I have like 50 different YouTube channels

From different 0 day examples

Lol

[slim token]

no one has found a way to change it back?
like an extention?

[slim token]

i found a filters list for ublock origin to do it

[slim token]

what is it with tech companies and their seeming need to change user experience for no benefit

[slim token]

but youtube isn't ticktock
im not watching a short 1-5 minute video that im going to click off halfway through

[grim belfry]

In A/B testing it has probably improved some metric

[slim token]

i fail to see how changing the ui to something objectively worse earns youtube more of anything
