[full fossil]

Bro I got the prefect solution for ya

e waste gpu like a gt 210 or something else that doesn't even register as a GPU to windows to get HDMI and Displayport out

[dapper whale]

?

[full fossil]

hmm?

Oh my mistake

is it the Monitor that is cooked not your GPU?

[dapper whale]

Neither it's probably my SSD

[full fossil]

uh nah

ssd failure is diffrent

[dapper whale]

Got to put it up again but are we started my PC to try and get my second monitor connected now it's not detecting my monitors

[tribal lance]

These speeds fine for an external game drive? ik its not insane just dont know what games truly need nowadays

[golden talon]

spinny drive?

[alpine gale]

What kind of drive is this? Provide the exact make and model.
As for whether or not the speeds are fine... most games don't really need more than SATA SSD speeds. Some will indeed benefit from the faster 3000+ MB/s speeds that PCIe NVMe drives offer, but in real-world use-cases for most average users... there's not a ton of benefit outside of video / data manipulation.

[tribal lance]

def not lol, just a cheap off the shelf external drive

[golden talon]

ahhh yeah kinda checks out

[tribal lance]

SanDisk 1T Portable SSD, not the extreme and its not the V2, the one rated for 550MB/s

[alpine gale]

Excellent - then I'd say it's getting close to what I'd expect from such a drive.

[tribal lance]

its for a 1650 system so i dont think ill be pushing massive textures and stuff haha

[tribal lance]

im guessing it could be the controller in this laptop too, its old and was cheap at the time haha

but as long as its good for most games I should be fine, most demanding thing would be COD and that can stay on boot if i notice anything

[alpine gale]

That, or just USB overhead. Rated speeds are almost never achieved in real-world scenarios because of protocol overhead. It's why "1 Gigabit" internet usually tops out around 940mbps.

[tribal lance]

funnily enough I get faster internet than rated, but thats probably because my plan doesnt even exist anymore 😂

but yeah i know how that is

but thanks, just wanted to double check for sure

maybe if I start making videos again ill compare to internal SSD

[alpine gale]

Eh, likely not. How much faster we talking? 10%? Like, you pay for 500mbps, but can reach 550mbps? If so, it's likely overprovisioning. Some ISPs overprovision by 10-15% to make up for potential overhead loss.

[tribal lance]

plan was 250mbps and now I usually get 325ish on ethernet, the closest plan is 500

could be just low bandwidth days or something

[alpine gale]

Or the ISP updated the 250mbps plan so it uses the same QoS / provisioning package as the 300mbps one's they offered at one point or another. 😉 ISPs do weird things on the backend.

[tribal lance]

Yeah and they just got bought out, so im guessing some funky things are going on over there haha

im not complaining though haha, it hasnt gotten worse

[alpine gale]

Ah, a subscriber of the formerly blue-now-red cable ISP in Western Canada? If yes, what I described above is exactly what happened to many of their speed tiers over the last 5 years. I cannot say why though. That's classified. 👀

[tribal lance]

Who would've guessed lmao

I was expecting some crap hearing how red company is, but everything here seems well so far

[alpine gale]

I hope it stays... same as it is now, but I no longer have influence over that, so I too am sort of on the fence about the future with the same cable ISP as you. Unfortunately, the fiber ISP in my area poorly outsources all of their call center support so I really don't want to use them either. 😦

[tribal lance]

I hope it does too, they're honestly the best deal where I'm at, not rural but smaller city and I don't need faster speeds so I just stick with them

I've honestly had around the same speed internet for 6 or 7 years now, didn't saturate it then, and now I only saturate it with game downloads lol

My one friend has gigabit, is in a house of 2 and plays on series X, doesn't have any servers or anything 😭

[strange elk]

Funny that I manage to get 600 mbps up sometimes, and a little over 500 down

[grim belfry]

We sell gigabit as 500Mbps for this very reason

[wary summit]

im actualy leaving australia

oh TopLime, long time no see

[grim belfry]

Indeed!

[wary summit]

thoughts on 3G shutdown?

[grim belfry]

It’s about damn time

[wary summit]

eh i think it shouldn't

got too may phones that still rely on 4G n stuff that cant call people on VoLTE

like at least have 2G but no we shut that down like yonders ago

[restive lion]

we switched from telus (fibre isp in the area) because they couldnt answer us for 2 years of asking when they were gonna lay fibre in the area (still on copper), and like 2 weeks later we got a notice that fibre was being laid.

[wary summit]

I'm on HFC with "1000" plan

i get 900 peak

Turnbull really fucked up thinking 25mbps was enough

[grim belfry]

It’s a waste of spectrum and will need to be turned off sooner rather than later

[grim belfry]

Reasonable

But also exactly why more RSPs should market ultrafast plans at 500-800Mbps

[tender pewter]

hi

[mild violet]

hi guys how is this build? for productivity, multitasking, and gaming in 1080 https://pcpartpicker.com/user/alsochilldude/saved/Bq3qbv

[grim belfry]

VoLTE is the real problem

[pliant laurel]

Any channel where i can complain regarding a video

[dusky veldt]

right here? maybe

[pliant laurel]

In the latest video setup doctor i cant change the video quality its just unavailable on my ios device but it works for other videos

[alpine gale]

That's unlikely to be LMG's fault - YouTube sometimes takes hours to days before other quality versions become available on all devices in each geographic region, or sometimes even on each ISP's network if your ISP has one of YouTube's caching servers in their Datacenters.

[pliant laurel]

Ok like its being 13 hours but its fine ig just wanted to report

[wary summit]

especially telstra's proprietary and the fact none of the telcos know how many people won't be able to call 000

[grim belfry]

Telstra and Optus know exactly how many devices cannot use VoLTE

[wary summit]

really? they said mine can't

but it can..., on Optus and Telstra

[static perch]

i think it would do fine for that. of cause it depends in the game you want to play and other settings and what kind of productivity you want to run.
overall this looks like a "i justs want a functional PC" list.

[grim belfry]

I may be able to, but it may not fully adhere to their standards and/or hasn’t been tested

[static perch]

i suggest you also look for used AM4 PCs you might find a much better value offer there

[wary summit]

but they're gonna ban any device that they are uncertain of

[mild violet]

oh lol

[grim belfry]

No?

[grim belfry]

Telstra’s VoLTE is not proprietary, and if a device is incompatible with the Telstra VoLTE network it will fall back to the Optus network for E000 calls

[wary summit]

what about regular calling?

[grim belfry]

devices which do not use VoLTE will not be able to make calls of any kind, devices that support VoLTE will continue operating fine

[wary summit]

what if they don't support Telstra's VoLTE

[fleet solstice]

Slightly hot take - LTT needs to do roast your setups more often. I'd love for mine to get featured

Hola 👋🏾

[grim belfry]

?

What do you want me to take from that

[mint sandal]

Fuck I can't believe I was rear ended again

[pallid falcon]

Of it was floatplane yea would agree but sounds like a yt issue

[pliant laurel]

Do i need to become paid member to watch on floatplane?

[alpine gale]

You need to subscribe to the creator on Floatplane to watch their content on Floatplane.

[wise tundra]

But it's a laptop, so I only have the three SATA ports, that's it

[slow minnow]

.

[flint glen]

oh cmon isp why wont u let me watch floatplane :/

switched to a remote vm in a datacenter to watch floatplane 😂

[severe tundra]

Hey, I'm looking to buy a new gaming pc. What's the best on the market performance wise? Looking for a pre buildt pc btw, I don't trust my racoon fingers. I was thinking about the alienware aurora R16. Is that a good choice?

[rose anvil]

dont go for alienware

[severe tundra]

Why

[rose anvil]

no bang for the buck

[severe tundra]

Well, what do your reccomend?

[rose anvil]

why dont u build your own?

cheaper and better

[flint glen]

yea honestly its hard to screw it up to where something breaks with the exeption of the cpu socket

[rose anvil]

@severe tundra

[severe tundra]

As stated before, I don't trust my tech skills. I study software engineering, I was not made for messing around with hardware.

And I'm also not rly in the mood to order all components seperately

[rose anvil]

from where are you

what region

then i can recommend you some prebuilt sites

[severe tundra]

EU

[rose anvil]

NZXT is a decent choice @severe tundra you can on the website choose your own parts and stuff and your budget

they build it for you

[severe tundra]

Lemme see

Wow... They seem to match my requirements for a 1000 Eur less

[storm niche]

Welcome to mogwarts

[rose anvil]

they have prebuilt and you can custimize your own @severe tundra there built quality is not bad and its a trusted company

[severe tundra]

Any other suggestions

[rose anvil]

for sites?

holdup

tbh i dont know much in EU

[flint glen]

newegg i belive is available here in the eu

[bright silo]

Eh

I think Newegg is only US/CA

[flint glen]

youre right i confused it with mindfactory

[bronze imp]

I wish there was some Newegg alternative in France. Sadly, there's nothing similar 😔

Why is it so hard to have a good tech shop

[flint glen]

yea tbh tho im kinda glad there aint a microcenter here that would not end well for my wallet 😂

[vital oak]

my suggestion is to rid yourself of public chat and go to #tech-chat-1

Public chat unfortunately sucks

i am going to become the one being that's even more powerful than jesus christ

Hi guys I need help. I moved my PC to a new location. Now I'm trying to connect it to wifi, I have the MAG X570 TOMAHAWK WIFI motherboard.
But it doesn't find any of the wifi connections that come from the router. They appear on my laptop and phone, but not on the PC.
The wifi works, because it finds my phone personal hotspot, but I am right next to the PC. It doesn't find the router from the other room. But then again, my laptop and phone do find it, which are much older than my PC.
I installed the latest drivers and nothing so far. Any ideas ? Please help.

[flint glen]

dumbest question first do you have the antennas installed

[lime pilot]

Hello to everyone

[wild pier]

?? Yes the router is working. What antennas are you talking about

[flint glen]

the ones for the motherboard

[surreal kernel]

The antennas you attach to the back of your motherboard to get a wifi signal

Sometimes its just 2 wires and a single antenna

[wild pier]

There are no antennas, I have this pc for 2 years and I bought it assembled.

[surreal kernel]

If it has wifi it has antennas

If you are just using ethernet sure, no antennas

[wild pier]

Actually I found something is this it? Should there be anything else >

[surreal kernel]

Those are the wifi antennas lol

They just screw into the goldish ports by the rear usbs on the motherboard

[lime pilot]

is'nt there any vioce channel for this community?

@surreal kernel

[surreal kernel]

I suppose not

[lime pilot]

🥲

[flint glen]

youre right i just noticed

theres only voice channels in the float plance section

[lime pilot]

so sed

i love to talk rather than type

[wild pier]

That worked guys thanks. I didn’t even know I had antennas lol

[lime pilot]

🥲

[vital oak]

Those are called antennas brother

[dull granite]

i hope danger zone will return to cs

maybe with bigger maps due to less engine limitations

when will Linus do a voice reveal?

[odd salmon]

hi

[tired glade]

Voice reveal?

[bitter lichen]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhA0X6_z3lY i believe it's this

[wary dock]

Is your voice supposed to change over multiple decades?

[tired glade]

Yes

[smoky badge]

The muffin man

[tired glade]

Also,in 15 years microphone tech kinda progressed

[odd ruin]

Yo

[balmy tiger]

Yes

As you grow up your voice deepens or changes

[tired glade]

Linus already was grown up

[balmy tiger]

no he looked hella young

he was 23 when he made that

today he is 38

[bitter lichen]

It has also a lot to do with your on camera performance. Inexperienced performers are usually pretty tense. It causes the vocal pitch to be higher

Also age

[stray path]

Im glad to announce that i did not drop my cpu when swapping from a 3400g to a 5600x

[pure crag]

hello, do you think if i would order a gpu with 1 year garantee left from fb marketplace without testing it irl but, i would ask for a video from the gpu running a benchmark to see if it does not turn off under pressure, where is the date and time is visible and the serial number of the gpu is also visible, i would order with opening the package when it arrives and check if the serial number from the video is checking and before ordering it i would verify if the guarantee is real. do you think i could still be scammed?
(sorry for my english)

[limber bluff]

Hi

[mortal geyser]

Hello, I want to ask, after buying this HDD, when I use it for 2 hours, the HDD makes a cit cit cit sound, what's the cause? Lack of power from the PSU or is the HDD a problem? please provide information

[glass mural]

Linus looks older in this for some reason

[dull granite]

hawk tuah

[timid blade]

I got an issue with my PC and I have no idea how to fix it
For some reason whenever I plug a USB stick or Harddrive into my pc it constantly demands that I format it but if I do it keeps saying the device is read only. I have checked the devices and none of them are actually set to read only so I dont know why its doing this or how to fix it

[keen stump]

dont let linus touch your computer parts

there is like a 20 minute video out there with just clips of linus dropping stuff lmao

And it doesn't even go all the way back to NCIX days or to newer times

[stray path]

Thankfully im not in canada
i am out of range for linus

[keen stump]

NOTHING IS OUT OF LINUS' RANGE.

[stray path]

Yeah thats fair
but im only gonna upgrade my gpu, psu and add an ssd
nothing thats as easy to break as a cpu

[bitter lichen]

I feel it’s the polo shirt + potato quality camera 😅

can I ask about a case on here?

Honestly I thought he was in his 40s already for some reason

Not that he looks it

[dusky veldt]

i thought he was in his mid-40s lmao

[hollow mango]

I miss a lot of his videos especially those were he does pranks with his employees

[fleet acorn]

is this monitor any good?

[timid blade]

anyone knowledgable about installing ubuntu server?

[flint glen]

u really want ubuntu dont ya

😄

[timid blade]

lol

[strange elk]

whats wrong with ubuntu server?

And what issue are you having?

[flint glen]

nothing i just think that with the hardware he has available proxmox or any other hypervisor would be better to be able to experiment with multiple os`s

[strange elk]

Thats fair, theyd need to know how to use that tho

[timid blade]

oh wait

I thought I was installing proxmox on the ubuntu server

[flint glen]

no proxmox is its own iso i mean you can manually install it from what ive heard but thats a giant pain in ur rear

[timid blade]

ooh

let me do that then I trust you

[flint glen]

the iso i hope 😆

here ya go btw https://www.proxmox.com/de/downloads/proxmox-virtual-environment/iso

[timid blade]

ok do I just put this on the usb or is there anything else I need to do

[full fossil]

I have a long comment about the KVM video. I really had hoped linus media had learned from past videos. This format is bad. What you should do is showcase the higgest cost component then explain the budget version. Otherwise this format feels like a comercial. I am not against people making bank and linus making bank. It just, too me, feels hugely disengenius to feature a "budget" product just to have a seller bump price, what? four fold? Please keep making great videos. And be smarter about them.

[flint glen]

well you need to write it to the usb (not just copy paste but with a disk imager like rufus or win32 disk imager or any other thats out there) and then install it

then you have a web ui that you can use from ur main pc thats gonna be serverip:8006

[timid blade]

and what can I do with proxmox exactly

[flint glen]

Well quiet a few things

Proxmox is a hypervisor wich means that you can run multiple virtualized servers in a single machine, even with different OSs so lets say you have a few linux machine and you can also have a windows machine in there too, it also allows for backups but for that id add a proxmox backup server vm as that hughely reduces the needed storage by doing incremental backups (just backing up the data that changed from the last time) and it also allows you to do lxcs now these only support linux but are pretty cool as theyre a bit like docker containers but you have a full os in there with the expetion that you cant modify kernel things so some things wont run in there but theyre super lightweight running on as little as 200mb of ram from what ive seen and also can share gpus wich is neat

[timid blade]

ok ive got it up

which Proxmox do I install

Graphical, Terminal or Teminal/Serial

[flint glen]

graphical that gives you a nice ui for the installer

[timid blade]

anything in advanced options

[flint glen]

where exactly?

[timid blade]

no matter

[flint glen]

👍

[timid blade]

installing graphical

ok im on management network config

anything I need to do

[flint glen]

you should be able to leave it on the default network adapter maybe asign a static ip if ya want but other than that nope

[worn pulsar]

wassup

[timid blade]

do I need to set up proxmox as an zfs raid

[worn pulsar]

are we actually installing prox mox in public chat rn

[fossil frost]

#linux or #networking or #tech-chat-1 or #1027757333117415424 is probably a better choice of asking these questions

[graceful burrow]

I disagree on #tech-chat-1 that channel is a containment channel

[worn pulsar]

i mean like, youtube is probably a better shout

[fossil frost]

or the proxmox discord

[worn pulsar]

i’m running esxi at the moment and considered / considering prox mox

[ebon otter]

Is there a way I can pass threw my switch into my pc so I can watch youtube and ply games on the same screen?

[prime solstice]

There is I forget what’s it’s called but you need a modded switch for it

[worn pulsar]

you’d probably need a capture card of some sort I assume

[idle nymph]

I don't get how I can't focus on homework for more than 1 minutes before moving on to something else and yet spend 3 hour reading every small skirmish in the battle of Waterloo

[ebon otter]

oh I dont have a modded switch. is there another way?

[prime solstice]

Capture card

[idle nymph]

My attention span is cooked ngl

[ebon otter]

Dont got one ether lol

[worn pulsar]

you could tape the switch to the screen

[prime solstice]

Yeah

Or tape your phone to your switch

[idle nymph]

Both are good

[prime solstice]

Can play subway surfers and super smash bros ultimate at the same time

[graceful burrow]

There is no official way to stream your switch onto a pc

Like full stop

[ebon otter]

How many beach balls is to many?🏖️ 🏀

[prime solstice]

Unless you set up a camera and stream it to your pc that way

[idle nymph]

Five hundred

[worn pulsar]

a capture card would for sure work

[ebon otter]

What if there 6 feet in diamiter?

How many then?

[idle nymph]

500

[ebon otter]

that would take up so much space

[idle nymph]

500

[silver sun]

270

[urban thistle]

Are these good specs for 250?

[graceful burrow]

We don't know what gpu it has
The only thing we know is it has a ryzen 1600, and 16gb of ram

[keen stump]

funko pop in that case is baller

[graceful burrow]

Good ram? No clue

Oh it's vengeance lpx

I mean it might be worth 250 but it's unanswerable unless we get full specs

[urban thistle]

Bro said he reset the PC and he can’t get access to the full specifications

[graceful burrow]

That's not how computers work

[urban thistle]

That’s what I’m saying to my friend

[graceful burrow]

Yeah I'd be hard avoiding it

[urban thistle]

Trying to get the seller to tell him the full specs

[graceful burrow]

If you can't get full specs you don't do business
Simple as that

[urban thistle]

Ya

[plain carbon]

Which it only runs half of it?

[graceful burrow]

What?

[plain carbon]

It says 16 gb ram 7 gb usable doesn't that mean it's only operating on mayor the 1 stick

[graceful burrow]

Yeah probably kek

And the reluctance to provide proper specs is sketchy as fuck

[strange elk]

Cyberpower

[torpid juniper]

Someone has put the wrong link for the nanokvm in the new ShortCircuit video 👀

[deep sedge]

wait so the LTT precision screwdriver comes with no bits if you buy just the driver?

[worn pulsar]

which link

[torpid juniper]

this

It's not the official nanokvm store

and its also like $200 instead of $70

[strange elk]

Jake said 30 later in the vid

[torpid juniper]

thats for the lite version

[strange elk]

ah ok, was about to ask

[red mirage]

nope

dont think so

[deep sedge]

😭

'cause ain't no way I'm spending 50 bucks for screwing
I'm not saying it's overpriced, I'm saying I'd rather save the rest for more useful stuff

[graceful burrow]

Did you just like
Not read the description?

[deep sedge]

i didn't 💀

[graceful burrow]

Incredible L on a magnitude yet before seen

For real tho it does just say in the description

[deep sedge]

Idk because on the product pictures, it also says "*BITS SOLD SEPERATELY"

[keen stump]

honesty is admirable tho

[strange elk]

Holy fuck Zuckerburg got a new model lmao

[strange elk]

Normal or precision?

[graceful burrow]

It tells you the bit names you can do the rest lol

[deep sedge]

ohhh
so the screwdriver only is 30 bucks

but then the bits& case is another 30

[graceful burrow]

That's why I prefer an ifixit kit

It's not ratcheting but you get a lot more and they're decent quality with a basically zero questions asked warranty

Not saying ltt support or warranty is bad or anything, I haven't ever heard a complaint for either company

[pliant karma]

lol fact I have 3 ifixit kits is something

[graceful burrow]

I love mine

[pliant karma]

Different sizes

[graceful burrow]

Got it for 60 years ago

Hi kirashi

Do you have an ifixit kit

[pliant karma]

One I always travel with

[strange elk]

I like my pro tech toolkit

[graceful burrow]

And an ltt driver?

[graceful burrow]

That's what I got

[alpine gale]

I have purchased more iFixit kits than I have fingers and toes. I technically only have 4 myself, but the remaining ~15 ish kits have been distributed to tech friends over the years.

[graceful burrow]

Based

You either have a lot of ifixit kits or few digits

[strange elk]

I have more ifixit bits than fingers and toes

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1145149839580073984.webp?size=48&quality=lossless&name=smoke~1

[graceful burrow]

I need to contact ifixit and get a bit replaced
Idk what caused it (probably using it as a pry tool) but one of the flathead is tweaked

[granite tinsel]

i have an ifixit kit and an LTT driver

[graceful burrow]

But in general they pro tech toolkit hasn't let me down

[alpine gale]

I also have the full size LTT screwdriver - absolutely love it for larger jobs / doing server rack stuff at work, though I need to convince the boss to order some for work instead of always using mine.

[pliant karma]

Nice I got the Moray, Pro Tech Toolkit, and for whatever reason I got the Manta for lols.

[graceful burrow]

I'd like to try an ltt driver but I'm not spending that much money for a single driver
I know good tools cost money
I cannot justify it since I already have what I have

[granite tinsel]

i do need a screwdriver with as thin of a shaft as possible for getting recessed screws tho

[strange elk]

That must be handy for building pcs

[alpine gale]

I'd say it's only 4/5's handy. 😏

[alpine gale]

This is where I'm at too. If I didn't already have my stash of iFixit tools, I'd jump on the LTT Precision driver. But I can't justify buying yet even more tools until my existing one's wear out. I mean, I could, but I'd rather buy food / coffee / beer than more tools, cause you can't eat tools.

[graceful burrow]

You could and send the ltt driver to me
I'm sure you pink guys like me enough for that

[alpine gale]

Hmm idk - I think I need authorization from @karmic flame to do that... 👀

[graceful burrow]

@karmic flame hook it up big dawg

Don't ban me this time tho

👉 👈

For real tho I haven't heard anything bad about the ltt drivers

Even the silly small one is good apparently

Does it have a ratchet lock switch?

[alpine gale]

The Stubby? I believe so. Pictures show the same kind of mechanism.

[graceful burrow]

Nah the full size

[karmic flame]

maybe for Christmas, if your good.

[graceful burrow]

I'm always good

I'm aldonist let's be real here

I'm the best.

[alpine gale]

Oh, yes, it does. The ratchet switch has ⏪ ⏹️ ⏩ settings.

[graceful burrow]

If that one phrase wasn't banned yesterday I'd use it here, now

[karmic flame]

Christmas is already looking not so good

[graceful burrow]

I did tag hardwarebob with it one of the times you said to try it again but we're good buds so

Nbd

[karmic flame]

I noticed that

[graceful burrow]

You should see how we banter outside of this server

Or maybe you shouldnt

Either way
Back to drivers

This is my favorite colorway and also the plus sign is misaligned in its center

Oh god it's misaligned across the whole site on my phone

misaligned on other phones (emulated with ctrl+shift+i in chrome)

[pliant karma]

Considering mines been abused to shit, that sucker is still going on like nothing happened

Battle scars

[graceful burrow]

ye like i said i havent really heard anything bad about em

just cannot justify the price

[worn pulsar]

i totally convinced my boss to kit my entire team out with them

[pliant karma]

Yea agreed it took me a while to make is justified. Until I had to start removing stripped screws students in then tv prod 1 class my prof teaches while building stage sets.

[alpine gale]

Ooooo do mine next - I want to petition work to get both Screwdrivers and enough "The ABC's of Gaming" books to have 2x of each book at all our locations.

[graceful burrow]

Are the ABC's of gaming books for the other employees

[pliant karma]

Some don’t have control on the the power tools and just full send the screw into the wood

[alpine gale]

No... but now that you mention it, they very well could / should be. 🤣

[worn pulsar]

haha, they agreed with the quality claims and so once everyone started stealing mine we bought a few more

[fossil frost]

torx driver, and a hammer ftw 😄

[graceful burrow]

We need to make an ABC's book of terms people need to care less about I already got B for ffffffucking Bottleneck

Might workshop this

With a few other people
Sounds fun

[summer folio]

7800x3D is only usefull if you got a 4090 at least.
Otherwise it will just get bottlenecked by your gpu

[hallow cypress]

What PSU should I get to handle the 5090 when it releases? (My build right now without it is 400 watts)

[vapid smelt]

will my mid range last gen cpu bottle neck my mid range current gen gpu?!

[graceful burrow]

We don't know

It isn't out

[vapid zephyr]

Only thing I heard about it is that the bot storage mechanism gets flimsy over the months, but I haven't heard anything on a larger scale

[vapid zephyr]

If you want to be absolutely sure, get a decent 1600W unit and you won't have to think about PSUs again

[summer folio]

How can you mess up a screwdriver tho?
I just use the closest flatish~ object for screws
Kitchen knife, scissors, keys etc.

[vapid zephyr]

You think making a screwdriver is easy?

Especialy ratcheting screwdrivers?

[graceful burrow]

Is that r3mpuh

[vapid zephyr]

Yes

[summer folio]

It is

[graceful burrow]

Oh damn good guess

I've just had them blocked the entire time
Ive only ever seen them try to actively mislead other users
Thankfully not many people pay them much attention

[vapid zephyr]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=845HUaWYSQA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojJIki1vKAs

There's a reason there's videos like this
It ain't that easy, there's engineers for a reason

[summer folio]

You could seen it by yourself if you had an unmodded client, & clicked on the "hidden message" text

[vapid zephyr]

What?

You realize that if you block someone it only shows a message was sent, not from who

[graceful burrow]

I can but where would the fun be then

[summer folio]

Why would he ask if it was r3mpuh, if he could easily click to see the blocked message?

[vapid zephyr]

Because he's not a moron?

[graceful burrow]

Guessing which user it is, is fun lol

[summer folio]

Oh, it was a joke, nvm then

[graceful burrow]

Tell better jokes next time

[vapid zephyr]

No he thought you were making a joke

Which you totally did

Let's leave it at that

[graceful burrow]

I meant every word

[vapid zephyr]

God damnit

[graceful burrow]

Hi kirashi

[vapid smelt]

kirashi is a nerd

[graceful burrow]

True tbh

[harsh quartz]

No complains from mine, except it’s too big for laptops. Precision will fix that tho

[vapid zephyr]

My birthday is in four days, cringe

[graceful burrow]

[hallow cypress]

Alright thanks

[alpine gale]

Cannot recommend. This is how I broke the tip off my Spyderco ClipiTool knife. 😦

[harsh quartz]

skillissue

[graceful burrow]

Skissue*

[harsh quartz]

Bless you

[vapid zephyr]

Skissue is an actual slang for it btw

[graceful burrow]

Thanky

[harsh quartz]

I’m aware. But slang that shaves off 3 letters is ridiculous

[graceful burrow]

Umm it's 4 characters

Get it right??

[harsh quartz]

are you counting the space as a character?

[graceful burrow]

Yes

[harsh quartz]

Cause I didn’t say character, I said letter

[graceful burrow]

Yeah but that's not all that was removed

[hallow cypress]

I actually picked that too lol

[graceful burrow]

You're incorrect by omission

[harsh quartz]

Also the way I typed it it doesn’t have a space

[graceful burrow]

That's also incorrect kek

[harsh quartz]

That’s the “slang” form I’ve seen more often :p

Hi karan here

[graceful burrow]

Hello

[pallid falcon]

Hi bmo

[worldly lichen]

It's on off topic

[shut ginkgo]

Hlo

[pallid falcon]

What

[shut ginkgo]

Nice to meet u all

[harsh quartz]

But it’s on topic

[worldly lichen]

i mean my setup

[shut ginkgo]

Is this the right Linus tech tips orginal server?

[pallid falcon]

No this is the fake one /sarcasm

[graceful burrow]

It's the official one

[shut ginkgo]

O

[shut ginkgo]

Thank u sir

[alpine gale]

https://tenor.com/view/official-history-lie-narrative-report-gif-21738760

But yes, it's the official LMG Discord.

[shut ginkgo]

Thank u

[pallid falcon]

Ok but what makes it official

[vapid smelt]

no

[graceful burrow]

Bro what

[harsh quartz]

It’s been shouted out in multiple ltt videos

[alpine gale]

Well, uh, you can tell by the way that it is. Just like how the missile knows where it is by knowing where it isn't.

[pallid falcon]

[harsh quartz]

Fuckin banger, that video is

[shut ginkgo]

But other PPL saying it is what should I do

[pallid falcon]

Alr

[graceful burrow]

Look at the side bar and see all the actual people who work for Linus including Linus himself

[harsh quartz]

If this was actually the official server, it would be discord partnered with some sort of checkmark

[shut ginkgo]

U are Linus for real?

[graceful burrow]

Is English your first language

[pallid falcon]

Does linus employ non humans tho

[shut ginkgo]

No it's third

[harsh quartz]

Depends on the non-human in question

[harsh quartz]

I’ve heard he hates mimikyus specifically

[shut ginkgo]

I searched on chrome and found this server

[graceful burrow]

I typically don't try to jokingly mislead people who don't have English as their first language

[pallid falcon]

[graceful burrow]

Cause that's just something really shitty to do

[shut ginkgo]

😭

[pallid falcon]

Oh

[shut ginkgo]

I really appreciate your help sir

[summer folio]

This Discord server got so popular at one point, they had to make a Linus Tech Tips Forum to keep the messages coherent.

[shut ginkgo]

Yes

[pallid falcon]

Yes this is the official

[harsh quartz]

The mod has said yes. It’s up to the person to choose which to believe, the mod, or the others

[shut ginkgo]

Is that so but sorry I don't know what a forum means on discord

[shut ginkgo]

Thank you

[pallid falcon]

They should make a linus tech tips youtube channel next tbh

[harsh quartz]

Na, YouTube sucks, they should make a platform, something like nebula

[shut ginkgo]

May I ask a question is there any place to share art related things

[graceful burrow]

Or the mod could do mod things and ensure a user feels welcome and has the correct info

[shut ginkgo]

Or artists corner

[graceful burrow]

#creative would be the best channel

[pallid falcon]

True! I bet it'd take for like a plane

[shut ginkgo]

Ok again thank you so much

[harsh quartz]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[summer folio]

it's like an much older, archaic, way of communicating to other people.
Like a real life bulletin board where people go & puts up their post-it notes with text on, then they return at a later date to see if anyone have put a post-it note of their own as a response. But on the internet. Forum.

[alpine gale]

It most definitely is the official Discord, and the forums are available at http://linustechtips.com/

[graceful burrow]

For the record that wasn't a dig at the mods kek

[alpine gale]

Welcome @shut ginkgo, stay a while, feel free to ask about our tech tips, and know that like anywhere on the internet, there will always be a little bit of jokery here and there.

[graceful burrow]

But I can't choose how people read my messages

[harsh quartz]

But how to we know that’s official forums….

[pallid falcon]

Gimme a tech KiRaShi tech tip

[shut ginkgo]

This sounds so complicated I am happy I didn't have to deal with that

[alpine gale]

Don't get your beard caught in the letterbox!

[pallid falcon]

Tx

[shut ginkgo]

I got this 😁

[harsh quartz]

Do kobolds have beards?

[pallid falcon]

No

[harsh quartz]

L

[shut ginkgo]

I posted a art on the creative channel if anyone have a bit interest in art cab check if they have free time

[pallid falcon]

There's a creative channel?

[summer folio]

@harsh quartz The Swedish Wikipedia for Kobold shows a creature with a beard actually: https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kobold

[graceful burrow]

Yeah

[harsh quartz]

Yeah but why would I go to Wikipedia when I have an actual kobold

[shut ginkgo]

Yes I asked and someone told me about it

[pallid falcon]

I disabled all channels except this and floatplane

[summer folio]

or maybe it's his hair in the background that looks like stubb

[shut ginkgo]

O

[summer folio]

I like the Wan Show channel the most

[harsh quartz]

You don’t even check the memes channel?

[summer folio]

it's nice & active around WAN show time

[pallid falcon]

[shut ginkgo]

The one who give really good information

?

[summer folio]

More like a slower, relaxed way of chatting/commenting/watching the WAN show(Every friday) podcast together. #the-wan-show

[shut ginkgo]

O I remember I like that

[summer folio]

You could also pay for Floatplane to chat in the chat where Linus & maybe luke reads messages if that more of your thing ig

[pallid falcon]

Linus hasint said anything in this server since like years

[shut ginkgo]

So float plane is also a discord channel

[summer folio]

I meant watching the WAN show on Floatplane

[karmic flame]

He hates us like twitch chat

[summer folio]

they have their own chat

[graceful burrow]

REAL

[harsh quartz]

Buy floatplane for vids 😦 buy floatplane for wallpapers and discord channels 🙂

[shut ginkgo]

Ok

[graceful burrow]

Aw I made myself sad again
No more Emily

[gilded quest]

The wallpapers are a scam

Blurry af

[harsh quartz]

Emily is away

[shut ginkgo]

I make my wallpapers myself

[karmic flame]

how do you have 211,690 msgs already.. Didnt i just ban you?

[graceful burrow]

L+ratio

For some reason it didn't delete my messages

[pallid falcon]

I'm the reasom he's never active :3 (your welcome)

[gilded quest]

675x1200
What year is this

[karmic flame]

Give me a bit. I will fix this for you

[summer folio]

that too actually, but I was meaning watching the wan show podcast on their payment Floatplane platform.
They multistream it to Floatplane/Twitch/YouTube/Facebook on Fridays, but only reads floatplanes viewers chat allagedly hehe

[graceful burrow]

Why are you checking my messages

[shut ginkgo]

That is so awesome

[pallid falcon]

Oi is this cleaning floatplane exclusive wallpapers to pubchat

[gilded quest]

On my desktop I only use official Intel arc wallpapers because I have Intel arc

[shut ginkgo]

They have really good setup to do this much

[karmic flame]

Its a thing mods do from time to time, we check all 140k user msgs one by one.

[harsh quartz]

Cause of what you told bob yesterday

[graceful burrow]

Damn I'm gettin banned for SURE guys

[shut ginkgo]

Oo I never seen any of those wallpapers are they good

[karmic flame]

again

[graceful burrow]

AGAIN

[gilded quest]

They're okay
I hope they do more for battlemage

[pallid falcon]

What's your favorite message of mine? (I bet it was when warship muted me once)

[shut ginkgo]

I use some 3d software and make my wallpapers there

[harsh quartz]

I really like Lenovos community wallpapers for my legion

[gilded quest]

Also the Intel sticker replacement program does not include arc graphics when I tried last

[shut ginkgo]

O nice

[summer folio]

Aldonist actually has/had 185675 messages, you're dragging behind if you're only at 140k messages.

[graceful burrow]

I wonder if ltt discord feels emptier overall if I'm not here I'm fuckin terminally online

[harsh quartz]

140k users

Like discord members

[karmic flame]

This was the most depressing

[summer folio]

Hurry Aldy, chat away so they can't catch you!

[graceful burrow]

[karmic flame]

I know what broke,, You

[gilded quest]

My AP is 2 floors above me rn

[pallid falcon]

Tru

[harsh quartz]

Money can be exchanged for goods and services

[pallid falcon]

(Idk man,,

[harsh quartz]

a spider bit me and I’m pissed

[karmic flame]

bite it back

[harsh quartz]

Can’t it’s gone

[shut ginkgo]

Bit him back 😂

[harsh quartz]

Smooshed. Into atoms.

[summer folio]

You can make like a million Paypal accounts tho, right?
I think I contacted support once because I had changed my legal name, & they went like "Just make a new account then, lol."

[shut ginkgo]

Ant man time

[pallid falcon]

I think discord is giving me a hint

[summer folio]

Paypal used to be poggers tho.
Think they called me once at school & asked me if it was truly I who had made a purchase from USA the other day.

[pallid falcon]

I mean I have like $100 in savings but I hate opening my bank app it gives me anxiety (I don't make a lot at work)

In a very tough spot in life.. yea

[summer folio]

Atleast you got work?

[pallid falcon]

Maybe Langley went a bit far with that one, cya

[shut ginkgo]

What u do

[summer folio]

I hate logging into 1 of my bank account, because their pop-up with "You have to update your income detail, what do yo do for living, do you work for the govornment, how ofter will you insert money & how much each time"?

I always click "remind me later"

[shut ginkgo]

Does pay pal ask this much

[summer folio]

Nono, Swedbank

[shut ginkgo]

O

The only thing that is annoying is that phone bill , if you have payed the bill for next two months my payment account always sends me msg that it will end on this date so recharge now , and there is two month left 😂

[real ravine]

Hello there fellow people

[shut ginkgo]

Hi

[prime solstice]

The only thing annoying about my bank is it texts me when my account reaches under $100

[real ravine]

How are you all doing

[shut ginkgo]

Good

Hru

[summer folio]

That's nice. Swedbank/Swedish banks only would notice you after you went negative balance, & charge you another -10$ for that 10 cent negative balance.

Think this was a Maestro card thingy

Or Visa? Haven't ever gotten negative balance since adult at least

It just denies purchase if it would turn balance negative.

[graceful burrow]

You ain't alone there homeslice

We ball

It's the only thing life allows sometimes

[pallid falcon]

I have.. a lot.. to say rn.. but.. I'll refrain from taking it out on public chat..

[surreal kernel]

If we arent alone in struggling why does it feel like it anyways

[graceful burrow]

It's too relatable for too many people

[surreal kernel]

So?

How does that information help anyone at all

[graceful burrow]

People inherently don't like to talk about their trials and tribulations

And people who feel like shit all the time typically are too busy handling their own stress to even think of asking anyone else how they're doing

Which is understandable

If you're having trouble with your own stress you probably aren't gonna handle someone else's on top of it

[pallid falcon]

Or your to busy with others you don't have time for your own..

[graceful burrow]

That too

Been there as well

[pallid falcon]

Also you don't always know why someone might be stugglimg with some stuff, so, the smallest comments even jokenly about a sensitive topic might be.. pushing it.. and make one uncomfortable and.. beyond .. bad

[cloud mesa]

Wheres linus ta

I need to talk to him

Very important

[graceful burrow]

Also true
I will say I'm sure @karmic flame didn't mean anything by what he was sayin, he was just playin off what we were already joking about
Its hard to be like "don't take it seriously" because that's not often a conscious decision you get to make

[vapid smelt]

he hasnt been here in years

[pallid falcon]

Hasint been on in two years

[pallid falcon]

Don't ping him..

[vapid smelt]

dont ping him

[pallid falcon]

Agreed

[graceful burrow]

I can't un-ping him but it will give him a chance to say sorry or anything

[pallid falcon]

Let's move on..

[graceful burrow]

Probably a smart idea

[sly flint]

Today on a kinda sad news, I turned my 1tb external hd with about 300 gb movies, anime and stuff into a Windows installer only USB.......... Had to complete format the ssd...... Oh the price of my stupidity

[pallid falcon]

Oops.. I'm sorry

[graceful burrow]

Make it a ventoy usb right now and you can have both at the same time forever

You can store whatever you want on a ventoy usb, it'll just pick out the iso files when you boot to it

I store tools and utilities with my iso files :)

[pallid falcon]

I don't think I ever was able to get ventoy working 😕

[graceful burrow]

I hope you can in the future, I try to avoid anything else cause when it works it works

[vapid smelt]

what a time to be alive $84 for a 12100f

[north iron]

hi

[sly flint]

Currently I don't have 10 gb usb

But not a bad idea

[sly flint]

Honestly, I thought more ppl would laugh or joke around it more

I was wrong

[pallid falcon]

Oh

[summer folio]

13100f was not 4$ better?

[summer folio]

I was about to say maybe even go for the 11100f for 80$ then,
but then I remembered there never was a Core i3 for 11:th gen Intel desktop.

Such a shame. 11:th gen intel was the goat

[slim steppe]

hi

[hearty rain]

Hi, I may have uh found an arcade restore ISO online and got it working on a spare AIO I hve

Honestly, nothing fancy OS wise, it's pretty stock windows 10, no cortana or anything special just windows 10 drivers and the game it self.

[graceful burrow]

What game?

[hearty rain]

SlappyTickets I think

it just can't find the validation token so it will never boot, (The dongle has the token)

Most arcade games look to be Windows but theirs some Linux ones like Nerf Arcade being Ubuntu

[hearty rain]

I've been told the Tombraider arcade game has a better OS and it's the same company

[slim steppe]

Anyone have any idea how to fix a windows install that won't boot without losing data/reinstalling? (I have bad internet, so it would suck to do a full reinstall of everything all over again.) I don't have any restore disks/backups, I just have an installer USB with Ventoy.

Startup Repair doesn't work. I think maybe trying to boot it from USB using an external m.2 drive enclosure (it was originally inside a laptop, I had swapped to another drive that had Windows on it for doing some things) is what broke it in the first place, but IDK.

[gilded quest]

It's annoying but, if it's all media like that, it's not the end of the world

Big difference between losing some movies and losing a lifetime of photos or a graduate thesis

[urban thistle]

Rate my bedroom set up

[wispy marsh]

Which half is her half?

[gilded quest]

What happened to the phone cable

[urban thistle]

Like any lightning cable it started exposed the wires at the end of it so I just use the electrical tape down it so I can’t make it worse

[urban thistle]

Her half?

[gilded quest]

Yucky

[manic torrent]

the aesthetic is certainly... something

[slim steppe]

her half is the whole bed
that bed is small

[gilded quest]

It is a little small
I upgraded my bed from a full to king earlier this year and it is easily one of the best purchases I have ever made

Like, a queen would have been fine for me partner and I
But the king wasn't that much more expensive and fuck it, why not go all out

[urban thistle]

I’m a sophomore in high school so there’s no point in me getting that kind of bed plus it would look really weird in my room

[slim steppe]

that explains it lol

nice to see you keep your room clean though

[graceful burrow]

That gamers nexus video is unwatched

-17 points

[urban thistle]

Watching that right now was just posted today

[graceful burrow]

It's a good one

[urban thistle]

Yeah, I’m liking it so far

[graceful burrow]

That pc is a fucking enigma

Every design choice conflicts with every other design choice it's impressive

[urban thistle]

I told him not to get it without knowing the specs. He talked the person down to 200 and here are the full specs.

[graceful burrow]

That's a tough one cause a quick ram swap and it's actually fairly decent low 1080p rig (assuming the psu isn't a bomb but if they were that reluctant getting the specs they never checking psu model)

It's also got half decent upgradability unless it's a very first Gen am4 (and even then tbh)

[graceful burrow]

@grim belfry Thoughts?

For 200
It's tempting

@tardy terrace you too I'm pulling you into pubchat 😈

[tardy terrace]

wh-

[graceful burrow]

What do you think of the above pc for 200?

Not the worst in the world right

Or are these gummies secretly kicking my ass

[tardy terrace]

$200? yeah that's a baller deal

get that shit

[graceful burrow]

I'm on that side too

Like even as a broke highschooler that's worth

[alpine gale]

I've seen far worse for $200. While it might be older, a 1080 is still very useable today, 16GB memory is fine for normal usage still, and the motherboard will likely accommodate a newer CPU if desired.

[graceful burrow]

If the 16gb of memory is real
The photo of the case showed two sticks (in the typical correct slots)
And windows is showing 2
But it's only giving 8gb usable
Which is why I said 50 for new ram earlier

It's vengeance lpx

[grim belfry]

Ewaste

[graceful burrow]

And if it's on a 1600 build, it's probably the really shitty old lpx

New lpx I don't generally have an issue with for average consumer

[tardy terrace]

lpx is perfectly fine ram :(

[grim belfry]

Imo don’t buy anything that doesn’t meet the requirements for Windows 11

[graceful burrow]

My 2x8 kit of lpx is great and really flexible

[tardy terrace]

sorry that's just your opinions

[graceful burrow]

That is a completely valid point
Counterpoint, am4 is wildly upgradable even if it's a first Gen am4 board

A 3600 is compatible with every am4 generation and has ftpm 2.0 for windows 11

AND

3000 series am4 chips are stupid cheap

Like dummy cheap

[grim belfry]

I was indeed asked for my opinion

[graceful burrow]

And there's a decent chance the board can take 5000
Which means 5700x3d

It was a good point to bring up

[grim belfry]

I wouldn’t throw away that machine but I also wouldn’t pay for it

[graceful burrow]

One people do need to start thinking about

[tardy terrace]

I'd bite for $200

although I'd probably try to lowball at $175

[grim belfry]

Good point

[graceful burrow]

If I was hurting for a computer, there are much worse starting points

[tardy terrace]

3rd gen retired office optiplex.. eugh.

[graceful burrow]

This is a bajillion times better than the oem proprietary landfill other people get

[tardy terrace]

Turn them fuckers into servers gdi

[graceful burrow]

Those old optiplexes make great nas'

[tardy terrace]

ikr

[graceful burrow]

Nobody ever does it

[tardy terrace]

perf little media boxes

[graceful burrow]

I've never seen anyone in the wild do it

[tardy terrace]

I kinda want to now, but my nas is currently living on a shelf

[graceful burrow]

It's always how do I fit a gpu in here

[grim belfry]

Oop

[graceful burrow]

I saw that mra code

[tardy terrace]

geseundheit

[graceful burrow]

Whatever an mra code is

Mreow code

[graceful burrow]

I'm gonna swap to try out hexos when they ever fucking invite me

[tardy terrace]

what is hexos

[graceful burrow]

I'm tired of truenas and it's bloated os removing important features (smb version toggle, fucking docker)

[grim belfry]

Fancy gui for Trunas scale no?

[graceful burrow]

It's built on top of truenas to be a LOT more user friendly

[tardy terrace]

scale is better

[graceful burrow]

Yeah I'm talking about scale

[tardy terrace]

kubernetes tho

[graceful burrow]

Unraid

[tardy terrace]

scale is free.

[graceful burrow]

And removing features I need and actively use

[tardy terrace]

I don't feel like paying for a license per drive

or w/e their model is

[graceful burrow]

I run qbittorrent and jellyfin on docker and in new versions they remove docker

I need those, those are my base non-negotiables

I can't set a samba version for no stated reason so I can't connect to my nas with my laptop (runs chromeos flex and no, nothing runs nicer on it, 23 distros tried)

It's ui is needlessly clunky and then they remove important features to "trim the sharp edges"

[tardy terrace]

@lilac bane tell aldo your setup

[urban thistle]

So what is your guys‘s thoughts on it?

Any upgrades that My Friend should think about doing

[graceful burrow]

I say for 200 buy it, it's likely nicely upgradable
I'd nab some decent ram and depending on the motherboard you can upgrade it pretty nicely

It's a solid starting point 1080p machine

Everyone here seemed to agree on that in the end

[graceful burrow]

It's the sequel to undertale

[merry sapphire]

uncultured (jk)

[tardy terrace]

never played undertale

[urban thistle]

I know it’s the 4 GB variant

[glass mural]

I claim the whole universe as my own

[merry sapphire]

is that a part of a gpu im seeing rn

[graceful burrow]

By the by if you're looking for another co-op game kinda like it takes two, check out brothers: a tale of two sons

[glass mural]

I’m selling the andromeda galaxy for 1 4090

[tardy terrace]

I think Mae's got that one too

[urban thistle]

You should’ve been here earlier when it was hot glued onto the GPU

[merry sapphire]

excuse me...

[urban thistle]

Scroll up

[graceful burrow]

Looks like I'm wrong it's just normal, they were just gold that Gen which is weird but Nvidia will be nvidia

[merry sapphire]

rip gpu

[urban thistle]

Not very specific

[graceful burrow]

[merry sapphire]

brotherr

[urban thistle]

I guarantee it still works perfectly fine

[merry sapphire]

I'd assume so

just gotta be careful w/ it

[urban thistle]

Yeah

[tardy terrace]

hey @graceful burrow do you think if I email broadcom they'd give me technical documentation on an old vdsl chipset?

[graceful burrow]

I have never received an email back from a mega corporation about anything but billing stuff
Do I think they'd even respond let alone give you documentation? No
But you should email them asking for technical documentation
If you do email them you lose a bit of time and they don't respond, whatever
But if they do

[grim belfry]

https://tenor.com/view/doubt-press-x-la-noire-meme-x-button-gif-19259237

[graceful burrow]

What data specifically are you looking for this sounds like an interesting idea

[grim belfry]

VDSL is yucky

[tardy terrace]

so, broadcom's already kinda based and has gpl/lgpl code for building firmware packages for the bcm63138

[graceful burrow]

Sick actually

[tardy terrace]

but I'd like technical documentation on pinouts/jtag interfaces

[graceful burrow]

Ah
I assume you've done cursory research online to see if anyone before you has hacked it to shreds

[tardy terrace]

because I'm stuck w/ vdsl right now, and I'd really like to do fancy shit w/ my modem

[graceful burrow]

Valid af

[grim belfry]

https://tenor.com/view/other-peoples-money-fiber-optics-new-technologies-gif-25791269

[tardy terrace]

also maybe I wanna build a silly little dsl network in my house to distribute connectivity, just to be a nerd

[tardy terrace]

Yeah well ziply isn't coming to my neighborhood anytime soon :(

[grim belfry]

https://tenor.com/view/wireless-fiber-optic-internet-gif-20244181

[tardy terrace]

[grim belfry]

Much faster than xDSL

[tardy terrace]

vdsl2, bonded

it's not g.fast, but it's neat

[split swift]

w h a t

[tardy terrace]

++ I wanna enable LACP on my modem

[grim belfry]

Even more ewie

[tardy terrace]

tf you mean "ewie" it's literally two lines bonded together

if one goes out I still have half of my internet

[grim belfry]

g.fast is really fucking cool but has very few practical use cases

[grim belfry]

If something happens, it’s almost certainly going to happen to both

[tardy terrace]

g.fast is great for people close to a dslam w/ trenched lines

[grim belfry]

Eh

[tardy terrace]

My experience says otherwise

[tardy terrace]

otherwise you might as well do gpon w/ overhead lines

g.fast has its place

dsl still has its place, and there's constantly new revisions coming out for it that enables more wild shit

[grim belfry]

Ewie not aerial

Not worth it

[graceful burrow]

Holy shit you two are nerds

[tardy terrace]

who?

[graceful burrow]

You and toplime

[tardy terrace]

can't help it

[grim belfry]

I don’t like nerds

[graceful burrow]

Dw I don't like myself either toplime

[tardy terrace]

I think internet infrastructure & distributed networking is very neat :D

[grim belfry]

You should do GPON instead

Cheap as

[tardy terrace]

I'd do gpon if my ISP'd let me hang my own fiber line to the dslam

[grim belfry]

They’re making pizzabox OLTs for like $200 now

[harsh quartz]

Internet is a demarc and everything on the other side is just a cloud that isn’t real

[grim belfry]

ONTs can be had for less than $5

[graceful burrow]

Holy shit everyone is above my head in this convo how

[tardy terrace]

my modem has a gpon sfp cage already

actiontec c2300a

v nice little box

[harsh quartz]

Don’t worry, I’m single-handedly lowering the average IQ by at least 50 points

[graceful burrow]

Finally a conversation at my dumbass level

[gilded quest]

Suuuucks

[tardy terrace]

I KNOW

gigabit service here would be half the fucking cost of centurylink

[gilded quest]

Ziply till I die
