[manic torrent]

Do you concur!!

[gusty olive]

How dare you assume

[ornate walrus]

this is the last time i come here

We are, just not that :p

[gusty olive]

Talking about Belle Delphine would be allowed because Elijah is obsessed with her so it's on topic

[ornate walrus]

ok sorry for insulting polar

[manic torrent]

I try to stick to not weirdly objectifying people

[ornate walrus]

[gusty olive]

I now remember why I usually stick to pilot chat lol

[manic torrent]

"how can I make sure to alienate women in tech spaces"

[harsh quartz]

Man, the whole belle Delphine thing is just strange. And I don’t mean him in particular. Just the whole internet

[gusty olive]

she's not even that hot lol

[manic torrent]

Can we not?

[gusty olive]

Lemme rephrase though. Elijah "admires" her and others like her because they're smart and known how to take advantage of their situation (not exactly what he said but close enough)

[ornate walrus]

i feel bad lol

[harsh quartz]

I’m just meaning the whole internet latching on to one person for looks and then not letting go. An example that isn’t even a person, the Samsung girl

[manic torrent]

I mean you gotta monetise that thirst

[ornate walrus]

polar you accept apology

[gusty olive]

Exactly lol

Oh god the Samsung girl thing lol

[harsh quartz]

The whole internet was obsessed, and then Samsung said she was trans, and there wasn’t another word said about her

[gusty olive]

Samsung was like DELETE HER

They stopped using it pretty quickly lol

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, not all publicity is good publicity :p

[gusty olive]

Unless you're a nobody then even bad can earn you something out of it

[manic torrent]

Yeah nah

[harsh quartz]

Na, it ain’t worth it. Ain’t I’m not gonna list examples :p

[manic torrent]

Id rather not

[deep patrol]

Who knows, if i remove the ssd’s from my old pc before giving it to someone. Will that remove all the bios and windows information with it and basically have a fresh restart for the computer or will it need to have bios and windows all setup again with a brand new ssd that would be put in

[harsh quartz]

Don’t cross post

[deep patrol]

Ok

[gusty olive]

I can list a good example lol

[harsh quartz]

I can list many. I’m not going to.

[gusty olive]

The nearest pro team is called Ice Bears where I live lol. They aren't NHL tho

[harsh quartz]

Oh apparently the one I’ve been to see isn’t nhl either. Our closest nhl team is another hour away.

I’ve been to the riverkings a few times

[earnest ravine]

does it make sense going for second hand i9 9900k instead of i7 9700k on pc mainly being used for gaming ?

[manic torrent]

given you have supplied zero context or pricing, why wouldn't you get the faster one?

[earnest ravine]

i mean besides the fact i7 is like 50€ cheaper, but i'm asking is it worth paying more for something second hand that im mostly gonna use for gaming

[rare seal]

Is the i7-14700KF or i7-14700K better?

[earnest ravine]

as far as i know only difference is KF doesn't have integrated gpu inside

[viscid elm]

RN they are both dying the same way

im not gonna spam like 100 vids and articles about the issue but in short no go intel 13-14th gen

[graceful burrow]

Or do
Intel is replacing chips and there's a microcode update this August

[viscid elm]

tbh just go 7800X3D for gaming and 9950X for workstation tasks

[graceful burrow]

9950x isn't out boss

[viscid elm]

fine then 7950X

[viscid elm]

the main issue rn is that we do not have performance numbers for the intel "fix" or performance numbers for ryzen 9000

[rare seal]

Well, I won't be building my computer. I'll get a pre-built from IBUYPOWER and see if the cpu is good. I don't deal with AMD at all.

[viscid elm]

why no amd?

[rare seal]

Haha. why would I?

[graceful burrow]

[boreal pollen]

Sup chat

[viscid elm]

more performance for way less power use

[graceful burrow]

Why wouldn't you kek

[heady quest]

Ok so i haven’t been chatting here a whole lot but. What’s the best budget mic for like. Recording videos

[rare seal]

lmfao. okay. well, I'm more of an Intel fan sorry.

[heady quest]

I hear Shure SM57 is the best one

[rare seal]

I'm sure the cpu will be fine.

[graceful burrow]

Given you're buying a prebuilt I don't think you know enough to properly make the distinction on what's better or not, tbh

And being a pompous ass about it don't help

[viscid elm]

i still wanna know why go intel over amd rn?

[graceful burrow]

He told you

[rare seal]

I've been using computers since 2009.

[graceful burrow]

He's a fan boy
That basically means by definition it's not logical kek

[heady quest]

Intel is too related to NVidia in terms of Fortnite

[rare seal]

sorry not an AMD fanboy.

[graceful burrow]

That doesn't mean anything lmao

Have fun with your single channel ram prebuilt bud

[rare seal]

sure it does dude. I'm not going to argue.

[viscid elm]

i used a i7 9700 for a few years until i went amd

[earnest ravine]

tbh amd is better rn but i go for second hand intel too since i don't spend much on pc's

[rare seal]

I don't care for shitty amd

[viscid elm]

with a nvidia gpu too

[viscid elm]

what is wrong with amd

[rare seal]

I don't like em. sorry

[earnest ravine]

brother hates it internally just like me lol

[heady quest]

What did AMD do to your heart bro 😭

[viscid elm]

cmon you need to have some facts

[heady quest]

I think AMD is his Ex and Ex did too much batshi that they broke up and went with Intel

[dusky jacinth]

Technically, Intel is right now. Lmao.

[rare seal]

I ain't got Jack to prove to anybody it's my computer I'm going to buy what the hell I want.

[heady quest]

Good luck getting scammed by Intel with their 13K & 14K overheating CPU’s

[viscid elm]

well you can buy a lemon but people around you will still try and help you not too

[rare seal]

will do.

[viscid elm]

its not just overheating

[graceful burrow]

Yeah let the dude buy a dying cpu he really wants one lol

Why argue, pointless

[graceful burrow]

Wasn't overheating in the first place

[viscid elm]

400W i9 14900ks will say other wise

[graceful burrow]

It was intel pumping 1.6v into it

[graceful burrow]

Brother please
Go learn about why they're failing
It never was heat

[viscid elm]

also the whole rusting away with some 13th gen cpues

[dusky jacinth]

I'll be honest that for myself, even if that wasn't an issue right now, making the decision between Intel and AMD would be complicated.

[viscid elm]

i know

[heady quest]

AMD is on Top of the market rn because Intel can’t do shit that AMD is doing rn but can’t really argue to diehard Intel fans. Because you are most used to the experience of Intel and a little to afraid to be broad and discover new things

[graceful burrow]

It sounds like you need to do more research, genuinely
I'll resume this convo when that's done

[gusty olive]

i have

[heady quest]

What Material is Intel CPU’s are made out of?

[graceful burrow]

Silicon like everyone elses

[heady quest]

Because with the wrong Materials and Wrong care (even tho is really really really rare) it can rust.

[viscid elm]

i need to know the answer as i had the same conversation with someone who was in music production and had issues with zen cpues and a music production thing that made it hard to use so he had to use intel ( he had a i9 14900k or 13900k) but then had to go 12900k bc you know

[heady quest]

Oh. Yeah it shouldn’t rust unless a person is stupid enough to make it rust

[viscid elm]

it was a chemical leak at their fab

[graceful burrow]

Chemical* but comical works too

[heady quest]

A

[gusty olive]

iron oxide

[heady quest]

Delicious

[rare seal]

so just go with AMD and get an Nvidia graphics card? okay got you.

[dusky jacinth]

Well that's...
Actually, I do recall having a similar conversation with someone who was in the music field for trackers and such, and weirdly enough there are some odd cases of some midi or sampler workstations that just have very specific processor requirements.

[heady quest]

Best Combo out there

[gusty olive]

AMD cards are good too

[rare seal]

I don't do amd and amd.

[heady quest]

Why not?

[graceful burrow]

He doesn't like amd

[rare seal]

it's my pc thats why

Hmm…

[graceful burrow]

Oh I know

[dusky jacinth]

Sooo in the case of some music programs just being Intel biased, they aren't only just that. They can also be bizarrely specific too, so hearing what you mentioned, I can say I've been told similar.

[graceful burrow]

Preaching to the choir there bud

[viscid elm]

btw been using a AMD RX 7900 XTX and AMD RYZEN 7 7800X3D for a year now with zero issues and its just been a good time

[graceful burrow]

If they can't locate where to get the role when it tags the role in its explanation on how to get it I don't think they deserve the role

Like for real

[manic torrent]

clocks for audio is hard

[gusty olive]

goodge combo. I have 7800X3D but still stuck with my 3080 12GB lol

[viscid elm]

the 7800 XT or ofc 7900 XTX is a good place to go but the gpu you have rn is ok

[gusty olive]

7900XTX is like 50-100% better than 3080

[dusky jacinth]

For me, it's a been a few months with my Ryzen 3600 paired with my 7900XT and so far, the only issues I've ever run into either had to do with an outdated chipset driver or some games being absurdly broken in the weirdest ways for various gpu setups (the KH collection on EGS and now even the Steam ports).

[viscid elm]

thats not a nice combo

[graceful burrow]

5600 with a 3090 has been goin good for me

[viscid elm]

but ofc fully game dependent

[graceful burrow]

Esp since I play games at 1080p 😈

[gusty olive]

480 best res

[dusky jacinth]

That's heavier cpu demand than what my system has.

[viscid elm]

i play games at 1080p

[graceful burrow]

I only gave a 1080p monitor

[dusky jacinth]

So do I, but I don't have to deal with that kind of driver overhead at the peak wattage at least. Lol.

[graceful burrow]

My phone is unironically the highest resolution and nicest display I own

[rare seal]

1440p is amazing

[earnest ravine]

1440p monitors are getting cheaper

[viscid elm]

https://tenor.com/view/some-men-just-want-watch-burn-gif-19105046

[heady quest]

Yeah i have to be verified in order to get verified

[gusty olive]

I upgraded to 1440p years ago. But that's also because I have 32 inch monitors and 1080p looks ugly at that size

[heady quest]

So uhh… idk what to do

[zealous cedar]

1080p is fine for 24 inch but anything bigger 1440p is a must

[rare seal]

They are I have two 27 inch LG 1440p 144hz 1ms monitors.

[dusky jacinth]

My phone is actually a 1080p, while both my monitors are 1440p.

[earnest ravine]

24,5 ?

the only thing in my whole existence i got lucky with

bought it while it was around 250€ and then it jumped to 400€

[heady quest]

How the hell are you doing that

[rare seal]

I have had that microphone before and it's nice since it's USB and plug-in-play. I change from USB mics awhile ago to an XLR microphones.

[gusty olive]

I bought the blue mic arm and it only lasted a few months and stopped holding the mic up. I then bought the elgato mic arm and it's so much better

Is it possible to only do the ()?

Oh fun Ape Escape.

[heady quest]

So it’ll be an empty text & only the embed link itself?

For some reason i can’t buy yt music premium on my phone so i just go to pc and buy yt premium and log in with that account on the phone on yt music and i get both

ATH-M50X great for listening

[karmic flame]

also with amazon links you can remove everything after /REF

There is no best. There is different

Still young!

[heady quest]

Well what’s a good budget mic for clean recording or gaming?

[gusty olive]

This one was decent when I used it. But the lack of control with software and such back then made me switch.

[dusky jacinth]

One in a console (PS4) and one in a laptop with better integrated graphics than mine (mine had an i3-380M with only integrated, for 9 flipping years and sucked).

[heady quest]

My fucking god why is it 100+

[manic torrent]

I mean the two you mentioned I believe one was XLR and one was USB, so it's weird to compare them directly

[rare seal]

Well, thank you.

[heady quest]

What budget product would you pick for a microphone

[manic torrent]

There are many YouTube channels which show direct recording comparisons of mics

[gusty olive]

Cheaper than this

[rare seal]

I remember back in 1993 at the age of three messing with my fathers and uncles compact PC from 1986 that had MS-Dos on it and I was playing a game called EA World Golf Tour with pink and blue graphics.

[heady quest]

GODDAMN

[gusty olive]

But even then everyone's voices are different.

[rare seal]

Such a good microphone.

[full fossil]

my mic cost 30 dollars 💀

[karmic flame]

U need to remember even $400 is cheep in the world of microphones as they can easily go into the thousands of $

[manic torrent]

I have a BM800 and an sl40x. Both cheap mics, but work fine

[gusty olive]

Also got this lol

[rare seal]

I just paid $99 for mine.

[dusky jacinth]

I would certainly hope it's a ton better than both a Snowball and Dualsense's mic for that kind of price. Lmao.

[heady quest]

Yeah ion wanna waste all my money for a microphone

That’s why i’m looking for a cheap one

[karmic flame]

fair enough.

[manic torrent]

My microphone arm was $150aud

My interface I use at my desktop retailed for like 800, but I paid 50

[karmic flame]

5 finger discount ?

[heady quest]

The only thing i want for my mic is for it to have no mic peak (i think that’s what you call it) so i can scream into the mic as loud as i can and not have it be silenced out

[gusty olive]

Yeah who would spend hundreds on a mic that's crazyyyy

[heady quest]

Why is that specific woman on there

[karmic flame]

my old case had firewire back in 2009.

I never used it sadly.

[dusky jacinth]

Which ones though?

[heady quest]

We have 24 Chicks that we’re raising & they cost more than a thousand dollars

[gusty olive]

Women are expensive

[heady quest]

I mean Baby Chickens

[gusty olive]

Chicken nuggets

[heady quest]

No

[rare seal]

Well, I always go for Sennheiser or Beyerdynamic headphones. as for the microphone and audio-interface it's whatever is good and I can afford.

[dusky jacinth]

Unless you're that one launch model PS2 owner who plays the select few games that utilizes the firewire port for local multiplayer/splitscreen.

[heady quest]

Eggs

[dusky jacinth]

I'm certainly not one of them though, but I do own that age of a PS2 myself.

[heady quest]

My father still has a working PS1 suprisingly

[zealous cedar]

No love for audio technica?

[heady quest]

He has the whole collection of PS1, 2, 3, & 4, still earning up for a 5

[rare seal]

never had any of their headphones. I like an open back pair of headphones.

[heady quest]

And i’m planning on inheriting it 😈😈😈

[dusky jacinth]

Used them once, ATH-M30x specifically.

Was good for as long as it lasted.

[zealous cedar]

They have some open style. I have a set of AD700 and the sound stage is so wide. Some of the best gaming headphones back in the day

Hi, I'm new and am following the Discord directions on what to do! 😅

[harsh quartz]

I have like 100$ in it and thought it was pretty funny

[sick glacier]

Yeah a hundred bucks is like, oops, there it goes

Meanwhile this guy

[harsh quartz]

Yeah , I had 100$ in it before Linus ever even talked about it. I didn’t expect them to go this poorly but didn’t care too much :p

I also have 100$ in Boeing

[sick glacier]

Yeah, I don't hold any position in Intel, and never have, but I always hope they do well because competition is good and so on

When I saw the job cuts being in the five figures I knew it was gonna be bad

[sick glacier]

[harsh quartz]

I hope they do well but man, this whole 13/14th gen thing has been nasty on their part. They have no handled it well at all

I need to just put the 200$ back in ford, that’s where the 200$ came from to begin with :p

[sick glacier]

Yeah, and I saw that Steve (Gamers Nexus? Always forget the channel name) is gonna report on something

And we know how that usually goes

[harsh quartz]

[sick glacier]

[vapid smelt]

[harsh quartz]

I’m probably just gonna dump another 100$ in intel tonight since it’s cheap :p

[graceful mortar]

Sweet.

Washer and dryers cost like $4-6k. This is way cheaper

And .. I don't have to fold ☠️☠️

[uncut torrent]

Really

Mine didn't cost that

[vapid smelt]

i just leave my cloths in the hamper when i clean them i dont even bother putting them in my dresser

[graceful mortar]

Yeah... So because now you have to get Eco washers the cheap ones won't wash your CLOTHES so you can get a cheap one but realistically you're going to do the load five or six times to get it clean and you're going to spend a ton of money on detergent so you're going to have to get a nice one cuz those are the only ones that'll actually clean properly.

[graceful mortar]

Yes. But what if you didn't have to?

[uncut torrent]

I didn't know that, mines are budget-y ones but they do the job well

But we don't have a specific eco requirement for appliances

[graceful mortar]

The new low water washers they only fill till like 3/4 is full as your clothes are. So 25% of your clothes sit on top and then apparently they're supposed to whirlwind and clean them but they don't work like.
that I've literally taken clothes out and be like these didn't even get wet They just sat on top the whole time..

[graceful mortar]

Oh the old stuff is awesome You could get a $200 washing machine, easy get your clothes clean. So clean sometimes it put holes in it if you put too many clothes in it but they always came clean...

[vapid smelt]

my work is giving us 15-35% discount on all GE appliances on top of our employee discount

[graceful mortar]

The company that has been on life support more than insert distasteful celebrity comment

[uncut torrent]

Yeah I have those super basic whirlpool ones, so basic they decided to put a fire alarm in the dryer because why not

[graceful mortar]

Nice!

[uncut torrent]

So when the dryer is done I get a heart attack but hey it does the job 👍

[graceful mortar]

Allegedly if you go to certain retailers you can buy "extra" commercial use only stock. They are simple old school fully mechanical no $1,500 computer board to die. But apparently the government is cracking down on that as they don't meet the energy requirements for residential sells.

[graceful mortar]

So nowadays for instance most of these Eco washers take 2 hours to wash your clothes. That's not a big deal until you realize that you're putting less than half a hamper in there if you want them even remotely clean-ish... And somehow someway these new dryers take like an hour....

Look I'm not saying that I'm the youngest person out there but I literally remember when clothes washers would take 35 minutes and it would literally be 12 minutes in the dryer and the load of be completely dry.

[vapid smelt]

$1,524 for me

I have used both, yes the new ones take longer, but they use much much less water

[graceful mortar]

And I'm talking about like full loads, I know that laundry hampers aren't standardized. but like think at least a 13 gallon trash bag stuffed as much as you can get into it.

[marsh carbon]

Also you cant fully fill a front load

[graceful mortar]

My counter argument for that is depends on how dirty your clothes are If you're like just going to the office maybe they get a little sweaty and that's all sure.
But like if you're a mechanic or something, they don't use less water when you have to run the load five times.

[graceful mortar]

All mine are top loaders, but yes I know that. You can only put like a quarter of the drum tall loosely packed clothes in a front loader. Like four pairs of jeans and two T-shirts.

[marsh carbon]

Its closer to 70%

About a 9-10 days of clothes

[vapid smelt]

i can fit my full week of cloths in my front load minus my towels

[marsh carbon]

^

[graceful mortar]

Did you buy the extra large commercial ones cuz all of the front loaders I see there's no way you're getting that many clothes in there even if you filled it up till you literally couldn't fit anything else in it.

The front loaders I'm talking about are like the 10-in drum ones

[marsh carbon]

No, standard lg one

[graceful mortar]

I do miss my "8 load" front loader. She was the brand Speed Queen and she was from 1996. The old homeowner left it behind and he used to own a laundromat.

When I tell you that I could literally do every comforter in the house at once oh my God 🤤🤤

I'm not kidding when I said it had like a 26-in drum on it.

Actually wait so the drum was bigger than my arm and for my shoulder to my fingertips so it was like 42-48 drum something like that.

[vapid smelt]

speedqueens do cost a bit more

3.2cu ft for the washer drum

[graceful mortar]

Anywho. All the appliances are breaking at once at the house right now. Fridge is on its LAST leg. The whirlpool washers and dryers have been 🤬 since day 1. Like literally 6 bath towels max loads or it won't clean or spin.
Stacked oven takes 30-40 minutes to preheat.

[vapid smelt]

just dont buy anything Samsung and dont get a LG fridge

[graceful mortar]

But at least the commercial air conditioner is holding on replaced 7 years ago. Too bad power is .38/kw when it was .20 LAST YEAR...

[harsh quartz]

But muh gaming smart fridge

[graceful mortar]

Yes because if those are the commercial ones. That have no computers. So can be repaired forever. Unlike our 3 year old fridge. So many issues they don't make the main boards anymore. Since theya rent required to make parts for products they sell.... It was a $3,900 fridge...

[harsh quartz]

Did you get it serviced this year?

[vapid smelt]

10cents here in utah, yall should live in hobbit homes in the hot Arizona desert to use less power and stop making Styrofoam homes

[graceful mortar]

Facts! Hell we have been talking about getting an ex commercial kitchen unit just so we don't deal with this BS... The residential units would live longer. BUTT to keep the power bill at $350 a month (avg) for 2,000 sqft. We have to keep the air conditioning at 80. Which the Nest thinks means 82-84...

[vapid smelt]

its 65 in the basement right now

[graceful mortar]

The Air conditioner? YEah. Home owner son is certified HVAC and commercial kitchen repair.

[harsh quartz]

OH you meant price of energy doubled, for some reason I thought this was talking about the efficiency of the ac unit

[graceful mortar]

Oh you can get an energy efficient home but I'll tell you right now if you can show that you can keep your air conditioning at 72° for less than $100 /mo to prospective buyer that holds automatically $800,000-1.2 in this neighborhood. Bear in mind these homes the biggest one is 2,200 ft²..

[uncut torrent]

I think LG fixed the engine in their fridge, or at least what the internet told me when I was shopping for appliances

[graceful mortar]

No the energy price did! I'm actually really happy I got rid of my Tesla because I'd be furious if I was filling up for 38 cents per kilowatt at home and $1 something at a supercharger...

Do Bear in mind I'm told that my experience, although real world, was a bit abnormal I was averaging 405 watt hours per mile

Brb

[harsh quartz]

It’s almost as if people have been saying this for years :p

[mellow lichen]

Well, just bought a LTT Deskpad, hope its going to fix the issues I have with my current one

[graceful mortar]

So the interesting factor is is apparently it's because of the exponential growth in AI requiring exponential power from startup companies who are being funded massively. That coupled with the fact that although we were making progress towards low carbon they're not allowed to restart any of these plants that they took offline and scaling up rapidly renewables is extremely costly and that's why you know it's almost double.

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, and the plants that they are bringing back online are the bad, easily restored coal plants. Maybe not there but in other places

[graceful mortar]

Need more nuclear. We have "meltdown proof" designs. Fully passive systems.

We also could start shooting nuclear waste into space. Since 1960 all waste generated is stored on site of the facility. Been trying for 50 years to get the US nuclear waste site in Nevada online.

[harsh quartz]

I wouldn’t call it meltdown proof, but highly “incompetence resistant” might be a good term :p

[vapid smelt]

https://www.sltrib.com/news/2023/11/09/utah-cities-abandon-their-decade/ was a very sad day

[grim belfry]

Don’t go all titanic on us

[harsh quartz]

The nuclear waste is to space thing it’s a pretty bad idea IMO, at least until the space industry is a lot more reliable. For now, the Utah facility would work if they would let it come online

[harsh quartz]

Huh?

[grim belfry]

Unsinkable ship

[graceful mortar]

True I guess you could say environmental disaster resistant... Basically they can completely sustain without intervention during station blackout.
Which typically you know is the major cause for most of our meltdowns except for poorly planned "safety tests"

[harsh quartz]

Yeah. Nothing is for sure, especially when dealing with something as dangerous as fission, always expect the unexpected

[graceful mortar]

Do people actually live in Utah?? or do they just live near that lake that's full of salt that has rotting fish in it.

[graceful mortar]

What are you talking about Just strap it to a rocket... It's not weapons grade it'll be fine.

[harsh quartz]

Although, the fusion breakthroughs in the past year are really fuckin cool

[vapid smelt]

the lake and the arizona border aka St. George

[graceful mortar]

I'm just going off of memory here but I think it's a molten salt reactor that they're like yeah if you remove all the power the reaction just stops

Maybe it was molten sodium....

[graceful mortar]

You mean not Colorado City 🤣🤣

[spare lintel]

drama incoming regarding intel refusal of RMA/Recall?

[grim belfry]

And you go on about Australia

[graceful mortar]

I'm betting he got his hands on the microcode...

[vapid smelt]

well big brother has most the land

Approximately 71 percent of Utah consists of public lands managed by federal or state agencies.

[grim belfry]

Kek

[graceful mortar]

It gets better and Intel missed earnings by 80% 😱 and their stock is at a 52 week low.

Bear in mind this is before they briefed investors who have no idea what any of this means what their liabilities are in this situation.

[full fossil]

Hey guys!!

[graceful mortar]

That's pretty common past Texas since that's the pretty part of the country. The other coast is pretty too, but all that was before they decided that preserving land for public use was a good thing....
You know the don't tread on me and I don't like this flavor of tea era 😜

[spare lintel]

intel likely will be sued not only by EU but by their investors too

[full fossil]

it will come back up

[graceful mortar]

Intel is currently slashing jobs and there has been talks about putting projects like their new fab centers on hold because of this this is extremely major.

[vapid smelt]

i do like nature but 71% is allot to save

[graceful mortar]

The fab part is the crazy part because they're still paying interest on those loans even if work is not progressing and you're talking about multibillion dollars worth of loans...

In other words though. Maybe the skyrocketing inflation that my city is seeing because they're supposed to be two fabs coming here we'll go away... Or TSMC will go WATCH THIS and supercharged their fab building.
Bear in mind the state gave the land of TSMC It was originally I believe state trust.

So I found unusually large cookies on my firefox from website therewego <dot> uk - that I never visited - thought it's just some thumbprint tracker - but after removal that cookie kept coming back no matter what I did - so I blocked the website with ublock. I can't find out at all what that website is or what it does anywhere on the web - does anyone have any ideas?

I prayed for Linus’s sister chat

[graceful mortar]

Yeah but just means you can't own it it doesn't mean it can't be used for other things. Like do you really want to live next door to a mine like they do up in Alaska?

[graceful mortar]

Tech chat?

[full fossil]

oh. Apologies.

[vapid smelt]

does intel use the Arizona desert sand to make the cpus

[graceful mortar]

No the use virgin sand mined by those starving children used to see in those 1-800 videos in Africa. I think they feed them now though. /S /j

You did the right thing- block them.

Alex Clark voice
We spend eleven THOUSAND dollars on laptops to find out which is the best!
Annd... The two most expensive suck
Alex laugh 😅
Let me tell you why.

insert review that ISN'T a review because it's a short circuit review

[pliant karma]

lol which one is the newest

[graceful mortar]

Not a tax write-off. My dumb 🤬 spent my own actual money

[pliant karma]

You'll beat me if you get one more.

[graceful mortar]

The 2 on the right are new new

4090 + 14900HX

[pliant karma]

none gaming so just business laptops. One with 1650ti in it

[graceful mortar]

It's a 22 G14. I was trying to find a replacement for it so I bought a blade 18 and thought maybe there might be a bit too big let's go and order a legion 9i just in case....

And I hate them all... So... Yeah

[graceful mortar]

I just want one that doesn't feel obsolete in 12 months which is what happened with the 2022...
Though in all fairness a lot of that was because it was in RMA HELL for eight months straight and by the time I got a fully functioning unit back between 23s were not only on sale but they were actually cheaper than when I paid for mine and my particular model was a whopping $1,300 off.......

Should give you a clue why there is not a second Asus... even though my two previous gaming laptops would g752 from 2016 with a 970M and the G14 were both ASUS.

[pliant karma]

oh yea that i feel ya two of mines are pretty much phased out to an extent.

Xps 15 9500 max config already problematic to use so I pretty much shelved that laptop and the work 2019 16in i9 MBP is likely seeing it's final MacOs update.

[graceful mortar]

I was going to buy another one but. I decided to take a look back at all of my Asus products and quickly realized that I had a 60% RMA rate....
Five products 2014 to now 2 out of 3 had catastrophic failures, one of them Asus was like "we don't cover OLEDs".... Even though they're firmware bugs is what caused the burnout.

Two ROG swifts 2 ROG laptops 1 ROG motherboard.

Which is a shame because the SCAR 16 was my front runner and both of these machines have a compromise in one way or another.

[pliant karma]

rip

The laptop I regretted getting was my xps 15. Palmrest replaced twice but till displayed problems with the trackpad not registering clicks or delayed response.

and windows modern standby not operational on it.

It’s like 40usd, so plus shipping, yeah, I can imagine

[graceful mortar]

It was good enough for Challenger and Colombia though....

[harsh quartz]

When nuclear is involved, challenger becomes a lot worse

[graceful mortar]

Their plan is actually to store it in the Nevada mountains on the ancient Indian sacred grounds they chose.

Soo there's a new civ game coming out? My favorite thing about the entire game is the cutscenes 😅😅.

So much so that when I used to play online with friends I would actually quit the game if I found out they turned them off to save time.

[harsh quartz]

Better idea than what they’re currently doing

[graceful mortar]

The TOWER OF POWER blade 18 is too much for 2k games to understand. 🤣

[graceful mortar]

Currently they're just storing it on sites of the nuclear power plants. They haven't had any issues.

[harsh quartz]

Yes. So any kind of storage is better 🙂

[fresh sorrel]

im so sick of smart tvs oh my god

[graceful mortar]

Yeah there's been a couple where somebody will buy them on clearance only to find out they're on clearance because the Netflix app never got updated and no longer works and everything else has security flaws so there's not able to use any of the smart abilities.

[vapid smelt]

just buy new better one

[fresh sorrel]

i dont even care about using the smart features half the time just give me an input switcher and picture options ffs

[graceful mortar]

But then how will I justify my massive 60% profit on the product? Smart adds 40% and AI adds another 20%.

Don't forget the reoccurring income from the ads spots that I sell to run on your television

[fresh sorrel]

yep -_- i hate it

[vapid smelt]

i hate how weak and slow smart tvs are

[graceful mortar]

They only need to be strong enough to serve ads. Everything else just convinces you to upgrade every 12 months

[vapid smelt]

i bought the nvidia shield pro just because of the tv lag

and for the fact it has the 4k upscaler

[fresh sorrel]

its insane how underpowered smart tvs and infotainment centers in cars are lmao

[harsh quartz]

Just give normal tv :p

[vapid smelt]

and how low res the backup cameras are

[harsh quartz]

That’s not much of an issue anymore

[fresh sorrel]

cant really anymore, only options for non-smart tvs are like monitors which arent as big or retail screens

which are more expensive

[vapid smelt]

and have no hdr

[fresh sorrel]

im ok with smart tvs as long as you can quickly switch inputs and youre just using one or two anyways

just dont want intrusive crap

2x16GB DDR5-6000 CL36 for $115 is highway robbery. CL30 sells for less. Though maybe without RGB...

Definitely, a 2tb crucial p5 or anything along those lines will be more than enough, thankfully games aren’t at the point where they’re 600gb so gen 5 is a bit overkill for a standard desktop
