Honestly fuck yeah

[nimble elbow]

Oils are the problem

[ashen hamlet]

shutup u smell like that underwear that was sold to the tech guru twitch streamer for 4 grand

[viscid elm]

Fossile fuel

[polar fern]

And then that ties into the construct of worth and value and currency, and amassing wealth, and all of that which actually is pretty hilarious because a wealthy person indicates that something is operating in efficiently because extra money doesn’t exist in a balanced system.

[mystic tundra]

solutions to reduce pollution are expensive, nobody wants to pay that shit obviously

[fossil frost]

@karmic flame : sorry for the ping, but trying to DM, and its coming up as undeliverable... is there a way to reach you directly outside of public chat?

[polar fern]

It’s not even about reducing pollution

[lilac bear]

this is a certified @ mods moment

[nimble elbow]

All we can do is start from #us.

[nimble elbow]

[polar fern]

I would say that if you want to get some high-powered gaming computer or something, you should also have to do something like buy a solar panel and energy storage for wherever the computer is going to be used. We can’t afford to just have endless energy use anymore.

We’re so used to having all of our candy and so unwilling to have all of our vegetables

[lilac bear]

it's when the more environmentally friendly options have financial incentives then they are used

[nimble elbow]

How old are you tho? You sound 32

[lilac bear]

like reducing packaging

[polar fern]

Candy is not nutritious. It’s just fun. You need to do the vegetable stuff because the vegetables are the things that have nutrients and help you grow literally and figuratively.

[polar fern]

The vast majority of oil and gas came from shallow, oceans, and inland, lakes and stuff that accumulated vegetation at the bottom where there was so little oxygen, it didn’t decompose. Then through heat and pressure it turns into hydrocarbons.

[fossil frost]

if only i could get away with it 😄

[harsh quartz]

Ahh, yes, let my fit the house I live in (but do not own) with 25000$ worth of solar panels to offset the 850w 2k computer in my room that runs at most, a few hours a day. Very reasonable solution, definitely something every person needs to do

if everyone had photovoltaic and such coupled with an energy storage system the grid would then become secondary.

[harsh quartz]

And what happens when the photovoltaic systems get damaged and have to be replaced? Or when the battery’s degrade over their lifespan and need a top up? The old stuff just… doesn’t go to a landfill? New stuff just.. doesn’t need to be mined?

[polar fern]

<@&750150305383186585> @nimble elbow rule 2

@harsh quartz everything grades and has a lifespan. What is your point?

[fossil frost]

[nimble elbow]

Didnt disprespect anyone, it's all good

[vapid smelt]

Using gay as a negative <@&750150305383186585>

[harsh quartz]

Your talking about this like “if everyone had renewables installed at their own expense, everything would be so much better” without bringing up any of the negatives that your ideas would inevitably lead to

[nimble elbow]

Take it with a pinch of salt

[polar fern]

“Renewable” is not a real term used in the sustainable energy field unless it is bankrolled by fossil fuel companies

[viscid elm]

Hello Langley

[polar fern]

You don’t renew sunlight it is one way just like wind.

[nimble elbow]

True

[ashen hamlet]

this isnt even funny anymore
just stop

[harsh quartz]

That is not even CLOSE to the point here, imma just leave this convo

[polar fern]

and renewable energy, such as bio fuels are not actually sustainable

[mystic tundra]

meh, or just force the makers to make those chips efficient, you know solar panels are made from something which causes pollution as well, have to be maintained

[polar fern]

Yeah, I’m aware, but we need to worry about our climate stability or else we go extinct a little bit of dirty ground versus extinction. You have to balance things out.

[vapid smelt]

Then in 20-30 years we will have tons of extra trash due to renewables https://youtu.be/SST0Y_KN6G4?feature=shared

[viscid elm]

Will their not always be food waste?

[polar fern]

it’s not perfect, and it never will be, but there are definitely vast improvements that we can make in most areas of industry to make things cleaner safer, and less emissive

[lilac bear]

it's a balance of if oil pollutes more or if solar can off set it's creation pollution after enough time

[mystic tundra]

the people working on maintaining those also cause pollution as well, though yes solar panels are one of the better sources of electricity, prob the best for renewable

[harsh quartz]

Nope, photovoltaics have no downsides and you’re wrong for thinking they do. If everyone’s had photovoltaics the world would be so much better

[polar fern]

Food waste is too non-uniform to be used as a steady form of energy production, except for in some niche cases

[viscid elm]

nuclear

[lilac bear]

kinda like people using gas generators which is very inefficient

[mystic tundra]

better, but people are scarey of them going boom

[lilac bear]

opposed to a power station

[viscid elm]

Well that's the point of school

[polar fern]

Third generation pressurized water reactors are incredibly safe if you don’t believe me just look at the United States Navy and see what reactors they are using.

[viscid elm]

Modern reactors almost can't even blow up

[mystic tundra]

yup, and nuclear power is the safest

[vapid smelt]

I rather live by a nuclear reactor over a coal power plant

[harsh quartz]

Aight now don’t say that

[mystic tundra]

in terms of deaths, least rates

[mystic tundra]

ew coal power

[fossil frost]

almost impossible with new reactor cores... old ones, that were badly made, its "possible"... but the resports of the ones that have had issues, have been dramatically overblown when you look at the actual real information

[ashen hamlet]

BRIOOO

[lilac bear]

also when it comes to Japan and Ukraine's events
Japan was done by a literal super storm

[viscid elm]

Xd I saw a chart and it's like 0.0 smn for nuclear deaths and 5 or 6 for coal power in terms of power per mega watt

[polar fern]

Nuclear power currently has one problem, and that is that typically reactor plants need a large amount of space for security and fuel handling and passive cooling with the cooling towers and all of that

[mystic tundra]

yeah but you know how’s humanity

[fossil frost]

humans, in general, are stupid.. yes 🙂

[harsh quartz]

I live by multiple and most people around here don’t even know we have them. They actually get scared when I tell them we’re close to one, even though they’ve been here for 50 years

[viscid elm]

Mini reactors

[polar fern]

Small modular reactors could address that but of course it all takes money and of course you know money is definitely more important than having a planet that we can live on and I’m just going to leave it there because I need to relax

[lilac bear]

Ukraine.. yeah that was messy is the definition of why people hate nuclear power outside of politics

[ashen hamlet]

DO U THINK UR BETTER OFF ALONe

[gilded quest]

Not an issue out west lol

We got space for days

Water.....more difficult

[ashen hamlet]

and for go playoff down or do of to do P if Kris

[lilac bear]

also like people really taking Soviet technology as an example of "what the west can't do" like lmao

[viscid elm]

Good thing most reactors reuse their water

[harsh quartz]

It’s not an issue in the east US either. Or in most place in the US. Except for maybe like, New York

[lilac bear]

"you see a teddy bear? crack cocaine!"

[vapid smelt]

They are so scary and unsafe the Navy uses them in submarine and aircraft carriers 😱

[viscid elm]

Also I found it

[harsh quartz]

I thought it was hilarious, a few years ago Russia put out a “floating nuclear power plant” and everybody was losing their shit, like the US doesn’t have dozens of them, they’re just called the Nimitz class when they do it :p

[fossil frost]

and use RTG's for space probes too, literally strapping nuclear material to the top of a rocket and launching it 😄

[vapid smelt]

Damn wind is killing us all

[harsh quartz]

Who tf dies to solar?

[vapid smelt]

Falling

[viscid elm]

Instalation

[fossil frost]

those concentrated solar arrays that beam all the light to a central point, some bird flew into the beam and was vaporised?

[harsh quartz]

Aren’t most installations at ground level or close to?

[mystic tundra]

yup

[slow grotto]

bo6 was 202GB for multiplayer and campaign, damn. Not even warzone lol

[viscid elm]

Well that's not a human

[harsh quartz]

I’m just imaging like a cartoon, all you hear is a flap, a sizzle, and a cooked chicken falls out of the sky

[fossil frost]

look into "ameren", they install all sorts of solar and wind and hydro facilities... and also kill a bunch of people during installation of these 😄

[viscid elm]

Just go by a wind turbine and you can see the birds fly

what about deaths per total pollution produced? producing those watts

[ashen hamlet]

oh hell no

Tbf, it’s a solar farm in a desert, they can only look one way :p

[viscid elm]

Google it yourself, it's so late now

[fossil frost]

probably a simiar number of people murdered to get it installed where they want it to be installed too 😄

[harsh quartz]

Alright boeing calm down

This website is good https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/death-rates-from-energy-production-per-twh

[ashen hamlet]

how is my mobile data still going

[harsh quartz]

Mr

boeing have moved beyond just generic murder now, they are killing the parents of future engineers to make sure they never get born, build something awesome, let boeing mess it up, and have that engineer whistleblow on them

[ashen hamlet]

no im a ms

[viscid elm]

O no

[viscid elm]

Ok Mr

[ashen hamlet]

waht

[vapid smelt]

Did you know that Germany loves brown coal and is actively shutting down nuclear power plants

[ashen hamlet]

very funny

[fossil frost]

Politics innit

[viscid elm]

Well they did shutdown all reactors from what I remember

[mystic tundra]

ty

[harsh quartz]

Yeah but then they had nothing to replace the lost electricity with so turned back on the coal plants

[vapid smelt]

https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/germany-approves-bringing-coal-fired-power-plants-back-online-this-winter-2023-10-04/ yummy

[ashen hamlet]

im eating cookies off of the carpet

[viscid elm]

Worst part is that it's the green party doing it

[harsh quartz]

As an American, the Green Party is… interesting, from what I know. But that’s straight politics so I ain’t sayin anything else

[fossil frost]

one of the very few things the UK is doing correctly at the minute... is actually closing down coal... the last active coal plant was shut down a few weeks ago, and is being decomissioned now

[ashen hamlet]

thats nasty

[viscid elm]

Let's hope they do not do what they did again

[lilac bear]

accidentally touched both the negative and positive at the same time

[ashen hamlet]

how finite of a material is lithium

[harsh quartz]

Is it Scotland or Ireland that has predominant wind power?

[vapid smelt]

Lmao they did

[fossil frost]

ireland produces shit loads of it... but has no way of storing it, so they sell loads of it

[ashen hamlet]

cant we just use batteries for most things and use the sun to charge said batteries

[viscid elm]

Damit

[viscid elm]

Let's hope this winter will be hot

[fossil frost]

im pretty sure that i read that the uk averages, on any given day, about 25% of its power use comes from wind generated sources

[harsh quartz]

It will be (cause of global warming)

[ashen hamlet]

thats good

[vapid smelt]

With all the extra brown coal it better be

[ashen hamlet]

the fact that global warming is somehow considered a fucking opinion in the political sphere

[viscid elm]

Was going to make the same joke, but winters might actually get colder

[lilac bear]

because coal/oil want to deny this

[vapid smelt]

This fall our weather was 20f above normal

[mystic tundra]

all of them? wtf

[harsh quartz]

This is good only so far as the winds stay reliable, and safe, which isn’t always guaranteed, and can fuck up the grid if they’re messed up even once

[ashen hamlet]

u can't deny basic rationality

[pallid falcon]

Evening, it's my hour of discord time before the app bores me

[fossil frost]

btw, for those that dont know what "brown coal" is.. its younger, shittier, less energy dense, but more polluting coal... where as coal formed further back in the carboniferous period, is more black, more energy dense, and does burn "cleaner"... germany are not only switching back to coal, they are switching to really shit coal

[viscid elm]

Just look at the polar vortex thing that happend to texas

[vapid smelt]

https://www.theregister.com/AMP/2022/11/24/uk_battery_energy_storage/

[fossil frost]

its been introduced slowly, over many years, with fallbacks and safeties in place, rather than just going "fuck it, heres loads of wind power, lets hope this shit works"

[viscid elm]

Its going to be trash in like 5 years time

[fossil frost]

a lot of overproduction goes into pumped hydro storage too

[viscid elm]

Yeah that's what I was rooting for

In norway we have a lot of places

[ashen hamlet]

okay but like how finite is lithium

[viscid elm]

We just need to build them

[fossil frost]

ireland sells it, because they dont have a lot of places where pumped hydro is possible, they do have a few, but not loads like in the rest of the uk

[viscid elm]

Yeh

[fossil frost]

UK has a very... odd... power consumption chart too... its unique to everywhere else on the planet... there are scientific studies on it... there are 2 or 3 times per day, where we place MASSIVE demand on the grid, all at once.. but its different on different days, at different times

[vapid smelt]

https://youtu.be/6Jx_bJgIFhI?feature=shared

[fossil frost]

like, a sudden immediate demand for several gigawatts, for just 2-3 minutes.. 😄

[fossil frost]

yep, and as required... they just yeet the entire lake, into another lake

[lilac bear]

oh god lmao

[viscid elm]

I suspect iot plans will become a pretty massive thing around the world

Aka the power company can controll stuff like the heating and cooling, boiler and stuff like that to reduce sudden demand

[grim belfry]

Distributed energy storage :)

[fossil frost]

in the uk, its somebodies job in power plants, and at grid control centres... to watch the popular shows on broadcast tv... to know when the peak points are, so they can judge whether or not the entire grid is about to have a massive surge in the next ad break or not

[viscid elm]

But I should anyways go now as I have 3% and its almost midnight.

[viscid elm]

Having controll over it is another thing

But me go now

[fossil frost]

they are the ones who inform the people who press red buttons

[vapid smelt]

Or when people will turn on the electric kettle for a morning cup a tea

[fossil frost]

thats programmed in.. its stuff like, the FA Cup final, or certain soap opera episodes where a story line comes to its peak, or the last day of the premier league where all 10 games are all played at 3pm on saturday afternoon, so all have half time at 4:15pm and all finish at 5:15pm

[blissful sundial]

I need to take out to install linux but it stripped

Anyone

[harsh quartz]

Yeah I’m more used to how the US does grid management

[fossil frost]

by managing it, do you mean just letting it set fire to its self?

[pallid falcon]

Not a expert to use grains of salt

But Idk of those are repairable correct if wrong

[fossil frost]

stripped the head of the screw?

[lilac bear]

ah yes the "the two companies don't get along so people don't have power" strategy

[harsh quartz]

Often times encouraging it

[vapid smelt]

Rubber band trick, glue the driver to it and wait for it to dry or drill

[fossil frost]

i was gonna suggest my trick... torx bit, and pressure... since those screws are usually made out of a metal with the density of sponge cake

[blissful sundial]

It's a small screw?

[blissful sundial]

Yess

[fossil frost]

small torx bit, and a bit of pressure, push down hard while turning

not too hard, because you dont want to slip and drive a screwdriver through the board

[blissful sundial]

I dont know what that is

Could we maybe call and u could help me?

[fossil frost]

the star shaped screwdriver bits that you usually use for hex head bolts/screws

[lilac bear]

pleS help I qm under da water

[fossil frost]

go "up".. should resolve the issue.. 😄

[blissful sundial]

D m

[fossil frost]

not much more i can say on the topic really, dm or no dm

[blissful sundial]

Oh

Ok 😦

[fossil frost]

these are torx bits.. you need something like this, something that has a star shape

[spare hemlock]

hello

[fossil frost]

the points are usually sharp enough to dig into stripped screw heads

[ashen hamlet]

the star fish 🪛

[vapid smelt]

JB weld a chopstick to it ezpz

[fossil frost]

thats a new one on me 😄

[blissful sundial]

Which one to use

I have up to t20

[fossil frost]

whichever size JUST fits

trial and error really

[wispy marsh]

Those are security torx bits :O

[fossil frost]

tbh, i do have a set of screw extractor bits... that go down to really small sizes, bought them for repairing stuff on bikes, but have come in handy for computer stuff too

[blissful sundial]

What do I do now...

[fossil frost]

"security" torx 😄 ...

[blissful sundial]

Wouldn't I strip it even more

It's a tiny crew

[wispy marsh]

Well, yeah, i have some torx with flat ends that doesn't work on this one device, i think it was the Series X controller

[fossil frost]

you are probably going to ruin the screw trying to get it out, but, its already ruined... push the screwdriver down into the scripped head of the screw, and unscrew... should be enough purchase on it to loosen it

[blissful sundial]

Bro, it's the small screw that u take off a acer chromebook to install linux

[wispy marsh]

I think it was the series X or the steam controller

[blissful sundial]

Dude if I ruin this fuc king chromebook I owe my parents money bro

[fossil frost]

small tap with a hammer usually flattens out the nub inside the screw 😄

[fossil frost]

then you shouldnt be fucking about with it at all

[wispy marsh]

I don't have the tools that i consider usable for that job

[blissful sundial]

I'm just trying to install linux bc it's broken bro

The chrome is put of date

[wispy marsh]

Ah, PopOS

[fossil frost]

regular torx driver, and a regular hammer, the screws are usally made out of something around the strength of ice cream, so a slight tap on the torx driver with a hammer, flattens out that inner bit

[wispy marsh]

These ones are regular steel screws

[fossil frost]

ah ok, MS didnt cheap out and use aluminium screws then

[blissful sundial]

I'm gonna cry dude

I can't get it

[fossil frost]

you have had advice, if you are not comfortable following it, or it doesnt work, you need to take it to somebody who has better tools

[blissful sundial]

Brooo

It's just like

The hole os just getting bigger

[fossil frost]

what do you want us to do about it? you have a problem with a physical screw... you are asking digital people to deal with a physical problem

[wispy marsh]

Hey now

[blissful sundial]

😭

[wispy marsh]

Offer something better if we can't help

Like they could ask their relatives, the local pc store or the mechanics

[fossil frost]

thats exactly what i said a few messages ago

[wispy marsh]

Ah, well

I think desperate is not a good place to be

[nimble elbow]

WOOOOOOOOhhhhh

[blissful sundial]

Yeah

I'm fucked, cool 😎

[fossil frost]

its a stripped screw... its literally nothing... the device still works as it is... you just cant install linux on it... and someone in your family will have the correct tools to remove it... and if not... local computer shop will probably do it for free, if not a couple of $$ or ££

[fossil frost]

depends on the anniversary

and with whom the anniversary is shared

[manic torrent]

kek, I literally pulled apart a network cable last night

accidentally left it in the server when I pulled it out the rack

[torpid bolt]

is the Corsair Carbide Series Spec-03 a good case?

[fossil frost]

since i learned how to wire network jacks (and stole the tools to reterminate them from my uncle...) ive stopped giving all shits about things happening to them now

he gave me a 500ft reel of cat6, and those easy rj45 connectors, and the crimp tool... rewired my whole house

[manic torrent]

oh, I don't give a shit about the cable per se, the issue is I didn't have a spare, so I had to steal IPMI from a less important server

[fossil frost]

that still doesnt solve what happened at my last-last job... where all that is in place.. but the person who runs it all (me), left... and nobody took over... and they just have someone re-use the same credentials that were set up when i was there... and have never changed it for 10 years now

[patent violet]

hah

[fossil frost]

i can still log in... i have told them many times what to do and how to resolve it... ignored me, and left it as it is

[patent violet]

Thats the same kind of incompentence. RBAC etc would cover this by allowing you to assign policies and roles to someones account instead of having to use it. We use a system that forces us to offboard people from this in order to maintain automated compliance

It is a best practice to use a unique and strong password for each cryptocurrency platform or exchange you use. This is because if a hacker gains access to one of your passwords, they would only have access to that specific account and not your other accounts.
Using a password manager to generate and store these unique passwords securely is also important.
It is also important to use two-factor authentication whenever possible as an added layer of security. In this way, an additional level of protection is provided. Even though hackers may acquire your password, they cannot access your account without the second form of authentication.

Razer looks good

I admit their Hammerhead Pros are fire.

but Synapse...

[terse perch]

the g pro wireless is currently on sale (atleast for me) might be a viable option https://a.co/d/0p07Fwy

[azure stump]

But it doesnt mean it would last

[full fossil]

We don’t talk about that

[lilac bear]

why does a keyboard software need two updates a day

and then it tells you about Razer points every day

[azure stump]

I still have my og g pro wireless i got for $60 from someone who sold it coz the cable was janked

[lilac bear]

and to check out more Razer Synapse stuff

[elder harbor]

I live in another country so the price is different

[azure stump]

I used g502 for years with weights to train my fingers lol

if its within your budget i recommend going for it

their quality is just usually bad, i haven't really seen any problems from anyone with steelseries tho

[elder harbor]

I used a viper mini for like 4 years and i dont got problems with quality

or something really

[azure stump]

Razer just seems like a good idea until you realize you spent too much money on black with a green glowy thing

[full fossil]

RGB

Razed Chroma is pure sex

[azure stump]

Well thats one of the basic ones they made

[elder harbor]

In somethings

So its a bad idea buy a hunstman mini? (for gaming)

[lilac bear]

not that it's terrible, more so just expensive

[elder harbor]

Ohhh ok

but the QC issues do exist with Razer

so you kinda just gamble

Hello All

I need help with vbios updating

I have the 2080ti Xtreme Waterforce

I see in GPU-Z My device ID ends in B9

On tech power up, the lastest vbios Device ID ends in B8

Does this matter?

[half pewter]

Ayo what keyboard is that

[elder harbor]

No it dosnt matter

[teal estuary]

why do you need to change vbios?

[elder harbor]

what periphals you use?

[iron lintel]

real

[high kraken]

Isnt newer better?

[teal estuary]

not necesscarily

in general with a bios, unless you have a need to update it, dont

its a risky thing to do

you can brick hardware if the update goes sideways

ie: power dropping

[teal estuary]

Hello! Everyone

[half pewter]

Hello

[torpid crest]

Happy Diwali 🧨

I would like to share my situation with you guys

My Ryzen Threadripper 3990x CPU is dead 😭

[half pewter]

Rip

[vapid smelt]

get a new modern threadripper

[torpid crest]

and it's been more than a year since it's warranty is expired

[torpid crest]

Bro! Really? What are you even talking about?

[vapid smelt]

https://www.amazon.com/AMD-RyzenTM-ThreadripperTM-PRO-7995WX/dp/B0CK2ZQJZ6?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

[torpid crest]

I was expecting my motherboard to be dead as CPU are more likely to be more durable so I bought a $500 motherboard on ebay and I got it after a month since I am from India but now I am getting exactly same error as my old motherboard

So in other words I just wasted another $500 in mobo, plus another $100 for custom duty, $600 in total

Now I have two TRX4 socket mobo with one dead CPU

[torpid crest]

I appreciate your effort but please stop it. Why do will I buy it if they will change their socket in next year anyway?

Guys! What should I do now?

[vapid smelt]

buy a r9 7950x

only 16 cores but they are faster

[torpid crest]

I have no money, I bought this cpu and workstation through loan for my 3D Animation career and I have barely earn enough money just to pay the loan

[torpid crest]

Yeah right and what about 8x16GB RAM sticks ?

what about these $1000 motherboards?

[vapid smelt]

just by 64 gig sticks

[vapid smelt]

$130

[torpid crest]

The last project I was working on I need 128GB minimum

I was working on the City Matrix Project in Unreal Engine

I still want to check if my motherboards are okay but I don't know how can I check since my CPU is dead

We can't buy these Threadrippers anymore, I mean socket TRX4 ones

[pale dune]

hi

[torpid crest]

hello

[viscid elm]

nah

[dull osprey]

being honest and not saying one of the best

[small cobalt]

like, it asked if I got married, or visited alaska, and random things like that

[simple copper]

Man I fix every single OEMs displays as a major US asc. And they're all the same

Some have better lvds, some have better cable management

But they're all equally shit, samsung snapbacks for most hospitality and residential save time but are cheap, and the ones that are more premium just have more metal and screws that add nothing structurally but weight... Such a waste

Even when it comes to indoor and outdoor LEDs... The only real difference brand to brand (except planars over engineered beauty) is the architecture of the display driver which is largely novastar or built upon Novastar.

Though for fun, one of the current use prismview conversions to Samsung outdoor LEDs (either xpr or xps) uses exposed copper pins like a cpu, that slot into the module and get ripped in by the worlds strongest f magnets. So I'd argue that's perhaps the most shit design out there atm... But it does work I guess lol

[dull osprey]

Yeah makes me wonder if they use the same panel, except some companies, I've got a lot of monitor reviews request I don't know what's inside, but most of the time, they work similarly with little to no difference 😄

[simple copper]

There's a lot of parts crossover.

IE Promethean uses all hisense internal boards

Philips uses 3 different company LCDs

Hisense allegedly did some Korea poaching of engineers and while has their own product, intellectually its perhaps a bit dishonest

LG makes an F ton of everyone's LCDs

Samsung has some of their own but still licenses some LGS here and there

Forgive the exposition, I fly around a lot to fix the dvled walls of the people with more money than sense and got bored waiting for my 5am flight

[dull osprey]

wow, that's very interesting, thanks for sharing!

[crimson breach]

Hey I wonder if it wouldn’t be a bad idea for ltt to make a budget guide using laptop PARTS. My current machine is a laptop mobo and heatsink I bought off of eBay, it has a 12900hx, and an rtx 3080ti, and only cost about $1000

And I bet it would beat most modern pc’s at that price point

[heady flicker]

I mean, is this a full rtx 3080 ti, or is it the laptop version

[crimson breach]

Laptop, but still gets 19800 ish on passmark

Which is better than a lot of cards in $1000 pcs

[heady flicker]

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-3080-ti-mobile.c3840 doesn't seem that good

[viscid elm]

passmark aint a game m8

its a synthetic test

[heady flicker]

I'm sure you can cram a rx 6700 XT for way less than $1000

[viscid elm]

if your lucky on a used 6750 xt you can grab one for 200

[crimson breach]

But with a good cpu, and 32 gb of ddr5, and a tb of storage, and a power supply and case?

[foggy sphinx]

ztt community is so much more toxic than this

[dire tiger]

yo guys i bought a 3080ti for 300 bucks and it actually came, and it's working perfectly fine

[crimson breach]

Idk I get like 250 floored in fn max settings and 90 ish on ultra in rdr2

[crimson breach]

That’s sick where’d you get it can I have one

[viscid elm]

yes ofc

[dire tiger]

i found it on facebook marketplace

[viscid elm]

yes?

i got a laptop for 420$ with a 16 core r9 3950x and a rtx 2070 max p with 64GB of ram and 3TB of storage, all i needed to do was basic maintenance like changing thermal paste and getting out the dust and it worked without a issue

[crimson breach]

Idk man it’s just an idea that it’s possible ltt could cover, im not saying it’s an infinite performance glitch, and you should all be ashamed for buying pcs, but cheaper mobos you can get for like 400-500 and have an i9 and a 3070ti and it’s a good price i think for what you get, especially compared to buying a new gaming laptop, and maybe compared to buying a pc at that price range

[viscid elm]

you do know who level one tech is

Looks like Linux is more viable now

[strange elk]

Its definitely better

Still tons of kinks but most aren't too bad, I can run some games in vr now well enough to play

dude i want to buy a thinkpad so bad

[long briar]

Does your wallet say it wants to?

[vital oak]

i have £60 to spend so Noe…

[long briar]

thought so.

[vital oak]

but i have found a t470 for £55, just does not hold a charge (battery issue) and im not sure if it comes with the charger

[harsh quartz]

Howso?

[long briar]

Ever consider not wasting money when you're jobless?

[vital oak]

waste? thinkpad?

[long briar]

Your wallet says otherwise.

You're broke, any money spent on something you don't need is a waste.

[vital oak]

i’m not gonna pass away if i buy a thinkpad

[long briar]

why do you want a thinkpad?

[vital oak]

cause i want a portable computer so i can do shit from my bed

and also downstairs/outside

obviously

also when it’s not viable for stuff like that anymore i’ll probably hang it on my wall and sue it as a server

[long briar]

oh you don't have a laptop already?

No desktop either?

[vital oak]

i have a desktop

[vital oak]

no i do not

well i have 2 but they’re both dead

[long briar]

fix em

instead of buying another laptop then having 3 that's dead

[vital oak]

how do i fix a dead motherboard and an irremovable bios lock

[long briar]

what's with kids wanting to spend every dollar they have

[harsh quartz]

Why do you have them to begin with

[vital oak]

also they are both in motherboard form

[vital oak]

why not

[harsh quartz]

Money

[long briar]

when you're broke the goal is to make the most out of what you already have

[vital oak]

i am capable of saving money

i want a server and laptop to get stuff done

eg host a website and do stuff i need to do outside of my bedroom

[long briar]

your wallet says otherwise.

Capable of saving money and having 60 bucks doesn't match up

[vital oak]

i do not have a job

where is the money coming from nexgen

[long briar]

So why are you spending money

[vital oak]

there is not money to be saved

[vital oak]

#public-chat message

[long briar]

.

get a job so you can do what you want to do properly

[vital oak]

i will in the future

this conversation is getting nowhere though

there is no point in saving £60 anyway

[long briar]

£55 is 92% of your wallet

[long briar]

it's literally all that you have.

[vital oak]

so what

[long briar]

so why are you so adamant on spending it all

[vital oak]

why wouldn’t i

[long briar]

So that you can continue buying depreciating assets?

[vital oak]

there is no point in saving it

[vital oak]

what can i buy with £55 that is that useful to me that wont depreciate

[frail cipher]

guys

[vital oak]

hello

[frail cipher]

i got a r5 5600, a rx6600 and 16gb of ram
can i play cyberpunk on high settings?

[vital oak]

yes

[frail cipher]

really?

[vital oak]

depends on your resolution, definition of “high” settings, temps, minimum fps requirement, etc

but yes

[vital oak]

what i mean by minimum fps requirement is how much fps you consider playable

[shrewd plume]

idk

[frail cipher]

1080p, gpu not hitting 200°c is good also

[frail cipher]

60, if i push too hard on my concepts i can go low enough as 30fps

[long briar]

💀

[vital oak]

why must u respond to this but not my questions

[long briar]

at 1080p you can do medium-high ish

[frail cipher]

in high no raytracing its doing avg of 90 on the benchmark

hold on

avg of 100 maybe

[long briar]

wait what framerate are you targeting?

I also assume 1080p

[frail cipher]

not framerate, graphics

[long briar]

What refresh rate is your monitor.

[frail cipher]

beautiful enough to make me escape reality while playing, frameratey enough to not get nauseous

[frail cipher]

165hz

[long briar]

investing 55 pounds or even a banking account with interest

[vital oak]

i’d say investing in a thinkpad is more valuable for me in terms of learning opportunities

[frail cipher]

dont bring lenovo into this

[vital oak]

i’ll be using it to host a website and to code various things

[long briar]

your 2 other dead laptops can't?

[vital oak]

?1?

[long briar]

just hook em up to an external monitor

[vital oak]

they do not function

[long briar]

wait t470 is 6200u right?

[vital oak]

yes

[long briar]

2c4t?

[frail cipher]

anyways, im gonna turn raytracing on and see if my pc dies

[vital oak]

depends on the t470

[frail cipher]

cya in a bit

ok

its doing avg 70 on ultra settings, no raytracing

im not gonna push my luck

[vital oak]

it could go up to an i7 7600u iirc

but yea, sure, why

[long briar]

no, you said you were gonna buy a t470.

and the one you were gonna buy

is 2c4t?

[vital oak]

??

yes, i did

[long briar]

And do you know what processor is in it?

[vital oak]

i have no idea but for this sake sure it does

[vital oak]

not off of the top of my head mane
and it varies with different t470s, not a set processor

[long briar]

But you said there was a t470 for 55

[vital oak]

i did

which i’m considering buying

[long briar]

and you have no clue what's in it

[vital oak]

..not off the top of my head

i didn’t recite the ebay listing like a musical or soemthing

[silver sun]

302

[long briar]

so you're spending basically all of your money about to buy something you haven't researched?

[fossil frost]

as in, ancient socketable laptop cpu?

[vital oak]

..???

dude i’m not reciting an ebay listing

that isn’t what researching is
i have researched thinkpads for a while now

[long briar]

context: he has 60 bucks total. he wants to spend it all on a thinkpad that has maybe a broken battery, possibly a 2c4t proccessor, possibly 4gb of ram, and he has absolutely no clue what he's buying aside from the thinkpad name.

[vital oak]

the t470 has not got a socketable cpu

[harsh quartz]

New vampire survivors dlc dropped

[fossil frost]

intel made a cpu named "t470", i assumed you were on about that.. and that IS a socketable laptop cpu

[long briar]

nvm they're all 2c4t 😭

it might not even have a 1080p screen 😭

[tired glade]

Wasn't there 288v also?

[tribal lance]

Should I use a live CD to wipe my boot drive before reinstalling Windows? I was having issues with the prior install and now this one, was wondering if that could change anything

[vital oak]

the battery isn’t “maybe” broken it does not hold a charge
i am not sure if it includes a charger
the t470 does not have a 4gb ram configuration option
why does the core count matter to me
i have researched thinkpads extensively for multiple months now, i am very much aware on what im buying

you’re literally spouting bullshit lol

not to be rude

[fossil frost]

if you delete the partitions, and reformat the drive during installation, that is effectively what you are doing anyway

[long briar]

24Wh battery 💀

[long briar]

This was an option.

[tribal lance]

And that's really what I thought, I just didn't know 100% for sure

[vital oak]

do you care to actuallt respond to my message instead of sending me an image

[vital oak]

awesome, i don’t care
why would that ever matter to someone like me

[vital oak]

also i have 60 gbp total, and why would that possibly matter

[long briar]

so it's not maybe broken battery, it's broken battery.
no charger is bruh
T470 did have a 4gb ram option.
2c4t from 2015/2016 is really, really slow.

You'd actually be better off just hosting off your desktop assuming it's half decent

[vital oak]

i already stated that, the2 batteries are replaceable for cheap if i need to
it most likely includes a charger, the images show it, i just do not have text confirmation
why does this matter
why does this matter

[long briar]

I'd know how slow a 6200u, 6500h, and a 7100u is. I have laptops sitting in a bin because they're practically ewaste

[vital oak]

i’m not constantly running my massive am5 desktop with a 6750xt in it

[long briar]

they're too slow to do anything

[vital oak]

i’d be fine with a t430

[vital oak]

do you even know my use case?

[long briar]

you said web hosting

[long briar]

because that's what you're buying, apparently?

[vital oak]

hosting a super small, probably 1 person per day website is not difficult
i am going to run some form of linux on it, not windows bullshit
only work stuff i’m gonna sue it for is coding

[vital oak]

you were showing me that there is in fact a 4gb option

why does that matter to me? it doesn’t!

[long briar]

you said there wasn't a 4gb option

[vital oak]

and i was wrong, there was a 4gb option

well done, you have.. 1 correct point

[fossil frost]

4gb of ram will get absolutely eaten by a compiler or interpreter when building any code at all

[vital oak]

that is not relevant at all

[vital oak]

funny how it has 2 ram slots

[long briar]

ykw it's your money do whatever you want

[vital oak]

if i need more ram i can have more ram

[long briar]

you know you need to have money to buy ram right...

[vital oak]

could’ve said that like an hour ago

[vital oak]

i am aware

[long briar]

and you're spending like, 92% of it on a craptop?

[vital oak]

it is not a craptop, whatever that means

a t470 is an incredible laptop

[long briar]

incredibly slow

[vital oak]

Hey did you know buying stuff costs money

[long briar]

you have none.

A tank of gas costs more than what you have.

[vital oak]

..for running probably arch linux on it? to code? does it even matter?

[vital oak]

luckily i don’t drive

[long briar]

you don't even have a job

[vital oak]

did you know i can get money in the future?

[long briar]

Do you realize how broke you are

then go buy something that isn't ewaste in the future
