[tired glade]

The wall kinda over designed for its functionality

[kindred hemlock]

i have a keyboard that wont work until the i reach the home screen thingy. so i cant enter bios. it loads up when i turn the pc on. any way to combat this, or any other way to enter bios, cuz i just built a new pc and havent turned on XMP

[patent violet]

Is it plugged into the ports on the back or front of your PC

Sometimes the USB headers on the front of the case dont init until after POST

[long briar]

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to just work which it does

if you want your own peripherals, bring your own?

like for me I'm rather particular about my mouse

I have a preferred shape and anything else will throw me off a little to a lot

[grim belfry]

The cabinetry would've cost tens of thousands yet they chose $5 keyboards

Just annoys me

[long briar]

ykw nvm that's a valid complaint

[grim belfry]

The whole thing just seems half assed

[patent violet]

It really is

When I saw all the pictures I was very dissapointed

They had a contractor come out and actually custom design this place, HVAC for the Server room and all

Only for them to use very very very trash methods of management

[grim belfry]

Ugh

[long briar]

oh wait so this is good design poor execution

[patent violet]

This is good intention at design, bad design, bad execution

This shouldve been a single raceway cut through the wall.

[grim belfry]

[patent violet]

You dont mount raceways like this either

this is upside down.

you mount them the other way and then tie them to the cage

[grim belfry]

They bought so many of those fucking keyboards

[patent violet]

Also you need to use offset brackets to lift them off the wall

[long briar]

it's a kb mouse combo for sure

[patent violet]

Also wtf they had run pipes through the ground they didnt even use them

This is ABSOLUTELY disgusting.

[grim belfry]

It looks like they're just extra long USB cables too

Not TB or anything

[patent violet]

Oh that smoke alarm is also now not in code

its obstructed

[grim belfry]

Ubiquiti people for ya

[patent violet]

No clearance over the rack. Heat rises and gets trapped behind the top of the server rack

So thats stupid too.

fucking suffocates

[cerulean canopy]

when electrician does comms lol

[long briar]

private residence I think is a bit more relaxed about this, as long as there's at least one within 5m of every room door and minimum one per floor, and they all activate when one activates, it should be fine.

[cerulean canopy]

no slack in the cables either

[long briar]

I'm more worried about the tripping hazard this is

[patent violet]

Its not. NFPA coedes require clearance from all objects too

[grim belfry]

Also such crap carpet (in that room)

[last delta]

If someone wins the giveaway.. will they be emailed.?

And then asknfor shipping info?

[grim belfry]

Ugh

[cerulean canopy]

should have just used raised floor and ran all the cables trough it

[patent violet]

https://lanparty.house/#patch-panels

yeah no patch panels either

[long briar]

the pole is probably fine, it's the rest of what's attached to the pole that changes things lmao

[grim belfry]

AV companies love pretending they are networking geniuses

[patent violet]

Yeah its actually that wood its attached to that is an issue

Along with the stuff hanging under it

[cerulean canopy]

also what the hell are those ikea cable managing racks?

[patent violet]

Wtf. This is a terrible way to do HVAC

oh my god

[long briar]

LOLLLL

[patent violet]

holy fuck Id have a FIT

[patent violet]

jfc

[long briar]

Okay as a musician I'm angered by this, they have a grand piano (baby grand?) but they don't mention it; that only happens when people buy pianos for decoration.

You know that thing isn't going to be taken care of.

[patent violet]

ok so this is funny as absolute fuck. I need to count how many codes they broke with this one

[grim belfry]

It could be their partners'

[long briar]

is this an actual living space?

[grim belfry]

Yes

[cerulean canopy]

never heard of a pdu

[sour yacht]

i checked 5 of the main online shopping platforms&computer parts stores online. checked all the case options up to $60 range.
and found grand total of "1" case with open mesh front, atx mobo support and without tempered glass side panel... even the $30 cases are all tempered glass...

[long briar]

nono like personal living space

[grim belfry]

Yes

[long briar]

if so that's cool acc

[grim belfry]

There are kids rooms and cat rooms

[long briar]

u might be right on that then

[patent violet]

Something tells me they used 10 AWG here and what they did was daisy chain these outlets

[patent violet]

So the truth is, if you push too much amperage through the final outlets, the first few outlets will burn

Thos are NOT 20A rated and they CANT Be used to daisy chain that much power

that right there is a fucking house fire

You need to use a PDU thats capable of using something liek 40A. 20A x2 Split phase for example

Something like this

[long briar]

Neither are the breakers, though.

16A max per breaker I don't think they can do much about it

[patent violet]

They did do this custom so they shouldve done it right the first time

[cerulean canopy]

just run cable trays everywhere

[long briar]

I mean this was a private residence before though no?

[grim belfry]

Custom build

[long briar]

Oh.

[patent violet]

Yeah 0 excuses

[grim belfry]

Looks 100x better than the ones they installed

It's such a half assed effort

[patent violet]

These are the nice ones.U channel is so much better

Does it take a bit to setup? Yes. Is it worth it? Yes!

[long briar]

wait.

[cerulean canopy]

i have them, no idea why installer didnt use them

[long briar]

That's... not the right positioning for a sub

wait these rooms would echo is much

[patent violet]

yeah no angled walls, all flat

bouncy noise

how are they gonna clean inside these

im sorry, as cool as it is to have cats running around with tunnels in your walls, thats nasty

[cerulean canopy]

better than whatever this mess is, good thing it that it is now replaced

[patent violet]

those have been there a while huh

[cerulean canopy]

atleast 15 years

[patent violet]

Yeah those are the old platebox style risers

They were the goto for a while

They look like they held up well enough

all things considering

[long briar]

flashlight and a dyson, probably

[long briar]

oh boy.

[patent violet]

All fun and games until the cat pisses in your wall

[solemn goblet]

[solemn goblet]

So shes not a boomer lol

[mossy compass]

100 years ago was 2024

I mean
I'm not saying anything
But 2000 has been effing 24 years ago

[near zealot]

haha, yeah.. not quite a boomer, but history classes etc as a kid stick I guess 🙂

[keen cedar]

We’ll chat

I have an oled monitor now

[manic torrent]

Fuck yeah

And you have a cooler, despite it being winter.

[lilac bear]

haha prepare for burn in

[teal estuary]

[lilac bear]

it doesn't make heat

[teal estuary]

it doesnt make cool either

[near zealot]

hehe

[keen cedar]

[lilac bear]

he probably heats them up before eating them too!

[lethal pivot]

imagine owning a case that has 0 cooling because the sides of the front panel barely are able to get air through it

no wonder GPU chills at 95°C hot spot

my CPU is fine at 70 under load but that gpu is fighting for its life

[keen cedar]

it was like 2 and a half hours

[manic torrent]

JFC that's what delivery is for

[keen cedar]

well

it was an hour drive but we chilled at my grandmas for a while

its my bday

[shut lichen]

It's not 2014

[lilac bear]

get back to work

[obsidian oracle]

is that the way you had it to have 95c gpu?

[upbeat ermine]

🥳🥳🥳🥳 happy birthday

[obsidian oracle]

hbday

[manic torrent]

Ok, that makes more sense:)

[lethal pivot]

yeah nothing i can do about it

other than not using the side panel for air intake

[obsidian oracle]

the fans are open directly to air tho, wdym by 0 cooling

[lethal pivot]

the side of the front panel

it looks like fairly good intake for air

expect it isnt. those fans do nothing basically cuz the front panel air intake does nothing

[obsidian oracle]

the front panel is already used by those two fans, theres no more place to stick more fans to lol

besides the top half of the front panel

[obsidian oracle]

why wouldnt they

[lethal pivot]

because this case sucks

[obsidian oracle]

elaborate

[lethal pivot]

no top mesh for air

[patent violet]

The front panel is solid and only the side of the front panel cover is the only place air can come in

[lethal pivot]

its literally just front and it doesnt even let air in

[patent violet]

therefore its basically useless

[lethal pivot]

^

[obsidian oracle]

doesnt matter that much since theres holes on rear

[patent violet]

this is the only mesh

[lethal pivot]

and the rear is exhaust

[patent violet]

lol ^

[lethal pivot]

so how would air come in?

[patent violet]

Air needs to come in from bottom or front (Heat rises)

Air needs to leave from top or rear (heat once again, rises)

[obsidian oracle]

i asked "is that the way you had it to have 95c gpu?" and he said yes, meaning theres nothing changed in the pic to achieve same result (95c gpu)

[lethal pivot]

i only opened the pc to dust

[obsidian oracle]

so it had all the panels on for 95c gpu result?

[patent violet]

I have a suggestion. Cut a hole in the front cover and glue some mesh on

[obsidian oracle]

just, leave the front panel off...

[lethal pivot]

and how am i supposed to turn on my pc then?

[obsidian oracle]

with a screwdriver

[patent violet]

lol the buttom is on the front panel isnt it

[lethal pivot]

yeah lmao

[lethal pivot]

youre trolling

[lilac bear]

never turn off your PC

[patent violet]

Yeah cut a hole in it, glue a mesh

[obsidian oracle]

no, its a better and easier thing to do than cutting your front panel 💀

[lethal pivot]

theres no way i will get my screw driver to turn on my pc in future

[obsidian oracle]

aight

[lethal pivot]

might aswell get rid of the whole case then and put my pc on my desk in parts

i mean it would cool my PC

people

[obsidian oracle]

ofcourse, thats what im planning for the pc ill build after this one

no problem with it as long as you keep it safe from people

[lethal pivot]

or cats

[obsidian oracle]

At some point it even starts making some up when it just thinks its too much work to go through the possibilities and tries to form its own conclusion

really interesting stuff

[harsh quartz]

Tbf they tested every filter in TC1 before finally getting through

[obsidian oracle]

yea i had first hand experience several times

[patent violet]

Thats why with AI you have to give it a means to come to the conclusion you want it to instead of just feeding it if you are trying to work something

A grater is basically this but indented metal on side of the holes and sharpened.

Most graters start like perforated sheets, then they are punched and sharpened

Be careful on Amazon Black Fridays deals are scams. I've had a 4tb m.2 drive in my cart for months at $199, now magically it's 40% off for $212

[bright silo]

are you just now realizing that most "deals" are the normal sale prices from earlier in the year or just about

always has been like that

[prime solstice]

My local London drugs has them for ps5 for cheaper

[steel sedge]

Just trying to ahead awareness so no one gets caught in a scam

[bright silo]

also not a scam

just bad deal

[somber totem]

I need an opinion on a GPU. I just bought a VENTUS 3fan RTX 4060ti 8gb for $400 and there was a AMD Radeon 6800xt with 16gb for $349. I only care about performance so I’m gonna be playing 1080p and native resolution. Should I get the AMD graphics card and how do I know it’s okay with my motherboard. The motherboard I was gonna get was a MSI Z790 Gaming WiFi plus

and the cpu I wanted to buy was a I9-12900k

[sacred orchid]

6800xt is better yeah

or used 3080 whatever u want

[fiery prism]

yall for christmas should i get hella thock keyboard or headset

[somber totem]

Would the amd 6800xt work well with my i9-12900k?

hi!!!

[frozen spindle]

Hey, LTT Chat, IDK if i should ask this here, but is there a specific place that's trusted to buy Windows 11 Pro OEM keys? Greg Salazar pushes "VIP-SCDKey"

[alpine gale]

If you need a handful of "trusted" Windows OEM licenses, purchase them from authorized distributors, such as Micro Center, Newegg, Canada Computers, Memory Express, etc. Purchasing keys from third-party resellers might be inadvertently supporting criminal activity depending on how the resellers "acquired" the keys.

If you need say... 50+ Windows OEM licenses, you'll want to contact Microsoft's sales team to see if a Volume License or other business agreement could save money compared to buying single licenses.

[bronze pendant]

Twitch SMS is a problem.

I cannot receive Twitch's SMS to verify account. Resending codes still persists.

[alpine gale]

Can confirm; it's always been problematic / delayed for me on 3 different cellular providers.

[patent violet]

I wonder who their provider is

[patent oxide]

guys

[grim belfry]

Still not a scam

[steel sedge]

Not sure how to get that, but ok

[grim belfry]

Shady, yes.
Scam, no.

[steel sedge]

Again, not sure how you get that

[grim belfry]

Amazon is not scamming you

You get exactly what you pay for, and if you don’t, they make it right. Not a scam

[steel sedge]

Do you know the definition of a scam? Or are you just saying words

[patent violet]

if they took your money and ran it would be a scam

[grim belfry]

I very much know the definition of a scam

[patent violet]

Its deceitful.

but not a scam

[steel sedge]

Scam, "an act that is fraudulent or deceptive in nature"

[steel sedge]

Clearly not...

[grim belfry]

At least once every couple of days I have to explain to people the difference between scams, fraud, and shady behaviour

Amazon is not scamming you.

[steel sedge]

You should stop doing that then because you clearly don't know the definition yourself

[grim belfry]

It’s not right what they do and what some of their sellers do, but it’s not a scam

[steel sedge]

It is but ok

Raising the price of something just so you can bait customers with the word discount is by its definition deceptive in nature. Which is one of the definitions of the word scam.

So in the future, don't try to correct someone about a word you don't know the definition of.

[bright silo]

they arent deceiving or defrauding you

you get what you pay for

[steel sedge]

Trying to claim raising the price of somethings a discount is absolutely deception...

[bright silo]

just because it was cheaper some time prior and the sale isnt the cheapest price ever doesnt make it a scam. theres no deceit, it is known it can be researched, its kind of shady but you get what you pay for.

deceive: (of a person) cause (someone) to believe something that is not true, typically in order to gain some personal advantage.

The price and item are true. The sale is true because it is less than MSRP or other Retail Suggested Price. It just isn't the best sale. Shady but not a scam.

[steel sedge]

Wtf are you talking about... It wasn't cheaper "some time prior" it was factually NEVER $400 before the discount. The price was doubled for the sole purposes of baiting customers. Just because you can look something up does not make it not a scam... Holy shit this might be the dumbest conversation ever had...

[bright silo]

yeah it was lol

it was in fact $400 when it launched

[long briar]

msrp doesn't care how long it was in your cart for

[steel sedge]

No it wasn't, it's been in my cart for 6 months and has been ~$199 the entire time. It was raised to $400 so they could market it as 40% off specifically for black Friday

Hey guess what, after black Friday the 40% will go away and it will magically go back to being ~$199

[long briar]

still not a scam

[grim belfry]

Very shady. Very very shady. In lots of places that’s illegal.

But still not a scam

[steel sedge]

How do this many people not know the definition of the word scam... Holy shit this is what's wrong with this country ffs

[bright silo]

the product is older than 6 months but ok

i believe you are the one mistaken my guy

[steel sedge]

I'm not but ok

[grim belfry]

You’re right, I’m wrong? Because you say so? :p

[bright silo]

lets just say that is in fact true, legally they can be sued then, so why haven't they...

[steel sedge]

No because the factual definition of the word and actions involved say so. Facts don't care about your opinions

[steel sedge]

Scam does not imply criminal activity... IDK who told you that but they did you a huge disservice.

[bright silo]

scam implies defrauding someone

[grim belfry]

Language is fluid. Language is not defined by Merriam-Webster.com

[bright silo]

which is illegal

this is using your definition and reasoning

[steel sedge]

No, it imply deception or fraud

[bright silo]

okay even still, deceiving someone on a price of a product is also illegal

[steel sedge]

Yea and honestly the FTC needs to get involved because this shit has been happening the last few years. I'm sure you've seen the news feeds and videos of target and Walmart pulling the same shit last year

[bright silo]

its been a tactic forever

[steel sedge]

I can't remember it ever being this bad especially for black Friday.

[bright silo]

anyways instead of being angry at us, vote in politicians that'll make the change you desire, otherwise you're yelling into the void

[bright silo]

lack of experience doesnt make the practice untrue

[grim belfry]

Lina Khan is on to these sorts of things more than any chair of the FTC for a long time

However she’ll be getting replaced by the Trump administration for sure

[steel sedge]

That's atleast something.. atleast until agent orange tries to remove her or decrees Captain DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) supersedes the FTC lol

[grim belfry]

Fucking amazing what she’s done at such a young age

[steel sedge]

I'd have to look more into her I'm not super familiar with her works

[viscid elm]

ok

[somber totem]

I need an opinion on a GPU. I just bought a VENTUS 3fan RTX 4060ti 8gb for $400 and there was a AMD Radeon 6800xt with 16gb for $349. I only care about performance so I’m gonna be playing 1080p and native resolution. Should I get the AMD graphics card and how do I know it’s okay with my motherboard. The motherboard I was gonna get was a MSI Z790 Gaming WiFi plus and the cpu I wanted to buy was a i9-12900k

[austere shale]

Damn I missed an absolute heater of a conversation

[sour yacht]

should i just get an unreasonably overkill psu for my side rig? it has r5 5600 and 980ti rn 😄 if i get an atx 3.1 pcie 5.1 1000w+ psu for it. at least i can swap it to my main rig if i ever upgrade to a newer nvidia gpu?

just to avoid using older 12vhpwr... my main rig has an msi meg ai1300p but with the old 12vhpwr, not the updated 12v-2x6... for now its fine because i have an rx 7900xtx with 3x6+2 but in the future i might have to upgrade to an nvidia gpu...

i need a new psu either way. i can just grab a 750w and call it a day but might have to get a new psu for my main rig in the future if i want to avoid using the 12vhpwr... so i'd end up with an extra psu that i wont be using... also even if i keep the meg ai1300p on my main system i'd need a powerful enough psu on my side rig so it can handle the 7900xtx when i get a new gpu for the main system. 7900xtx will be moved to my side rig then...

so it should at least be 850w either way. for future proofing. i think it makes sense to spend just a lil bit more to have that swap option when the time comes...

[wet ivy]

What’s the price difference between that and a good (gold or better rated) 850 watt? do you actually buy high end hardware gpu wise and maybe cpu. Anyone running a 4090 should have a 1,000 watt with 850 bring the realistic limit

[meager bridge]

lol just read the funiest email

[wet ivy]

Generally you wanna run your psu at 40-60% max wattage for efficiency reasons and wear and tear. You’re right a solid psu will last 10-15 years

[cobalt halo]

o/ can a mod DM me please? Got someone in my DMs trying to buy my account

[wet ivy]

Beyond 15 years even a silverstone platinum I wouldn’t use and unless it’s a platinum I expect around 10 years give or take from your good name brand but not ultra end psu. A solid gold from a reputable brand.

[wet ivy]

What is Linus middle name? Gonk lol

I’m kidding btw

[sour yacht]

as i said. rn i have 7900xtx on my main rig. and that will be moved to my side rig once i upgrade the gpu on my main rig. don't know when but that day will eventually come 🙂

[wet ivy]

Dbrand is really smart tho. Excellent trolling. It was taught in business school that putting your middle initial makes it seem more professional than just a first and last name. First class trolling

As a finance major who ofc went to business school I love their antics. Proves you can have fun and be smart business wise

[sour yacht]

i got the msi meg ai1300p so it would last a long time. but its already deprecated cuz of the horrible 12vhpwr... it got replaced with the 12v-2x6 and i'm stuck with the old melty connector 😄

[wet ivy]

I think that depends on the price difference and frankly how much money matters to you

Me personally I wouldn’t. But it’s not wrong

If it was like $20 maybe 30 I might bite

More than a good 850.

[sour yacht]

like, if i get a 750w itll be enough today. but i can't even move 7900xtx to that rig when i get a new gpu for the main rig. so its have to be 850w. if i'm going that deep, whats spending a bit more so i can move ai1300p with 7900xtx to the side rig and use the new psu with safer connector on my main rig if i have to use that connector?

[wet ivy]

I don’t think platinum efficiency psu is worth it for home use gold is plenty. Could be wrong but they seem to only make sense in server and enterprise uses. I guess crypto miners those filth might benefit

1,000 watts should be plenty with any Amd cpu and I can’t imagine someone with as much tech as you choosing to go Intel

You wanna be hitting at least that 40% of max wattage under stress to get in that peak efficiency range for psu

Which would be 520 watts but that’s the low end it’s more like 50%. I wouldn’t spend the extra beyond 1,000 watts unless I was building a workstation or 1-2 years ago and Intel + Nvidia 4090 and Overclocking.

It’s just wasted way overbuilt. Even 1,000 watts is fairly comfortable. If you’re an extreme overclocker or see your cpu getting above 200 watts then yeah I would

Just my 2 cents. And it kinda all comes down into your budget and how much money you have.

[sour yacht]

who cares about the "peak" when its still more than efficient enough 😄 it starts getting 90%+ efficiency at sub 200w loads.

[wet ivy]

Yeah I wouldn’t get a 750w given you plan to upgrade but beyond 1,000 watts grasping at straws to justify it. But you don’t have to justify it, it’s your money

[wet ivy]

Wasted money on electricity and extra strain on the power supply

[sour yacht]

i wouldn't need anything above 850w if the 12vhpwr disaster wasn't a thing. i'd use meg ai1300p on my main rig for over a decade... but now i'm just afraid of using that connector so already planning a potential psu swap in the future

[wet ivy]

If you’re putting this much thought into your psu it makes sense to take what actually matters like efficiency into account. Probably the second most important part of a psu beyond its rating.

[sour yacht]

most important is by far the safety 😄

and i dont feel safe with the old 12vhpwr

[wet ivy]

Well a decade is going on in years in psu years for any power supply no matter how good. In that case I’d make sure it has whatever bs next gen micro adjustment up and connecters needed

[wet ivy]

Which happens because of lack of efficiency. Cheap poorly made psu juiced up because it’s cheaper than making a good efficient power supply that can handle the wattage voltage and current

[sour yacht]

nah it happens cuz of the 12vhpwr 😄 my psu is fine other than that...

[wet ivy]

Shitty psu tend to have pretty big red flags like lack of efficiency

[sour yacht]

im not talking about shitty psus here.

my psu is meg ai1300p

[wet ivy]

Well yeah but I’m talking the crappy psu that blow up not Nvidias shitty connector

[lunar marten]

Hello there

Does anyone have a idea how I connect my floatplane account to my lttstore account so I can sign up for the Black Friday deals

[wet ivy]

Wait isn’t that only an Nvidia power cable? You said you have a 7900xtx

[wet ivy]

The deals don’t come until November 25th. Otherwise idk

For floatplane subs. Everyone else it’s 26th

[sour yacht]

as i said its ok now. i'm using the ai1300p with 7900xtx. im planning for the future...

[lunar marten]

I know but it's stating I need my accounts linked I have no idea how

[sour yacht]

even if i get a new psu with 12v-2x6 now i'll keep using ai1300p until my next gpu upgrade

[wet ivy]

I’m just curious did you have a 4090 blow up on you?

[proper field]

Hi I’m after a little advice my father passed a few weeks ago. My mum had recently bought him a drone which he has only used a handful of times. I was wondering if anyone would be able to suggest a fair resale value. I dint have any background in drones. The model is a mavric classic 3 with a bunch of accessories. Any advice appreciated

[sour yacht]

no

[obsidian oracle]

dron

[lunar marten]

I'm so very sorry for your loss

[sour yacht]

but im the type of guy getting an acrylic panel to avoid using tg. i dont wanna take any chances... never put that tg panel on my rig.

[wet ivy]

Unfortunately I don’t. If you can’t find a use or decent resale Ukraine probably needs them. I’m sorry.

I’m really sorry for your loss I wish I had more to say just that may your farther rest in peace in hopefully a better more peaceful and amazing place 💙

does anyone here know how to drive

?

[civic cairn]

The odds of nobody in this channel having a drivers licenses is very small.

[rare otter]

well do you?

im scared of driving

[civic cairn]

Yep.

[civic cairn]

That's not a unreasonable thing to be afraid of, you are taking control over a large object that can do a lot of damage if you aren't operating it correctly. If you had no concerns about getting behind the wheel I would be more worried about you doing something stupid about it.

[rare otter]

its not just that

i have to worry about road signs

and blinkers

thats too much for me.

[civic cairn]

Do you play video games?

[rare otter]

minecraft but thats it

[civic cairn]

OK, minecraft is more involved than what you need to be doing to drive.

[rare otter]

i play the ps3 edition

minecraft doesnt require me to multitask

[civic cairn]

Sure it does.

You have to manage movement, inventory, and you are controlling multiple inputs while processing the information from the game.

[rare otter]

but i do that one at a time

i walk to a crafting table and i then use it

thats 1 at a time

[graceful burrow]

Cooked

[rare otter]

i mine then i craft so to speak

i dont get how thats an example of multi tasking

i cant worry about a blinker while making sure i dont run a red light

i cant move my eyes in different directions then the other

[civic cairn]

After a while all of that just beomes musle memory, you don't even think about it you just do it.

[civic cairn]

Not many people can, you actually wind up scanning around keeping a eye on what's going on around you.

[graceful burrow]

Waiting patiently for this to get funny

[rare otter]

about that.

i have aspergers

[civic cairn]

It might not. Could be a legitimate question.

[civic cairn]

Doesn't mean you can't operate a vehicle.

[rare otter]

that makes it incredibly dificult for me to get muscle memory

[rare otter]

its one of the factors to why i cant

[graceful burrow]

It's definitely not kek

But that's why I'm waiting

[rare otter]

it is a legit question

im 17 and im terrified

[civic cairn]

It's soemthing that you see as a reason, it's not.

[rare otter]

and i've been in a car crash before

[civic cairn]

I've been in several, they suck, but as long as you pay attention to what's going on around you and follow the rules of the road you should be fine.

[rare otter]

what if someone else isnt paying attention and rams right into me

i've tried talking to my stepdad about it and he keeps saying that its an ievitiability that ima crash

[civic cairn]

What if a asteroid falls on you from space? There are some things that you simply cannot controll at all, that's not a reason to not get out in the world.

[graceful burrow]

What a cool dad

[rare otter]

tees are alot more common then asteroids

then why should i drive if i cant control it

[civic cairn]

Being able to drive puts you in a postion where you have a lot more mobility - also means that if you ever get into a situaton where you need to drive you can.

Just because you have the license and can drive does not mean that you have to be driving around.

[rare otter]

but i cant multi task

[viscid elm]

in the US you almost have to some places

[rare otter]

cant remember what the signs mean

i cant focus on the blinker when im turning

[civic cairn]

True, but no idea where this person lives.

[viscid elm]

that is true too

[civic cairn]

It's something that you will learn over time.

[rare otter]

i've tried plenty times before and ended up having a panic attack

[civic cairn]

After time you won't have to.

[viscid elm]

i also have zero clue whats happening

[rare otter]

im scared of driving

[civic cairn]

Start small with driving around a parking lot, or just around the block at home. Work your way into it.

[viscid elm]

i just walk my computers around

[rare otter]

my stepdad wont let me start small

he had me drive an hour away to another town

[obsidian oracle]

damn

[viscid elm]

you need to start off as a getaway driver

[rare otter]

the whole time i was having a fucking panic attack

[civic cairn]

But you got there in one piece.

[rare otter]

i couldnt breath. i almost crashed a out 8 times

[civic cairn]

but you didnt crash.

[rare otter]

i didnt finish

i ended up crashing the truck into a tree that fell

[obsidian oracle]

nah i got that place occupied already

[viscid elm]

nice

[civic cairn]

Everybody is stil ok, no injuries?

[viscid elm]

only a few hit and runs

[rare otter]

only minor injuries thankfully

[civic cairn]

OK that's good. Still no reason to think you can't drive. It's a learned skill like any other. Take your time, practice and you will get it figgured out.

[rare otter]

what if i crash again and its worse

[civic cairn]

As you learn to drive you will become better and better at catching things and you will be able to avoid those situations.

[patent violet]

lol

[harsh quartz]

Repo in my area is not a job I’d be willing to do

[lilac bear]

didn't expect you to defend MKBHD speeding through a residential area

[patent violet]

yeah considering what he was driving that was weak. Ive done faster outside my house in a versa

meep meep bitches out the way I gotta shit

2:30AM

fucking rabbits everywhere too

[harsh quartz]

I highly doubt a versa could do that speed, especially without 4 miles of acceleration

[patent violet]

It was actually a pretty damn good car tbqh. Although had a straight shot once I turned in

and it was pretty long

even had roundabounts

makes it way more fun

[harsh quartz]

Drove a versa once. Pulled out onto a 65mph highway, hit the gas, and it just didn’t fuckin go anywhere. Just petered along as happily as it could be

It felt like a fuckin death trap

[patent violet]

Mine was the premium kit and it had a sport mode I kept on

otherwise it was indeed dragging

I wrecked it taking a turn right after it rained really slowly and I just kinda skid in slow mo into a fire hydrant

all I could do was watch

[harsh quartz]

Damn. And the fire hydrant was probably bigger than the car

[patent violet]

it was right outside my neighborhood

and the mud was so wet I just kept going over the thing

fucked it up pretty badly lol

thats also how they found out none of the hydrants in the area at the time were functional for some reason

[harsh quartz]

Idk. I couldn’t daily drive a car that small and lacking power. Even if the engine was big enough, I can’t stand that Nissan CVT

[patent violet]

the CVT was already going out on it

It started to slip

[long briar]

I love my RAV4 cause I don't feel like I'm losing out on too much go compared to my beamer

[harsh quartz]

The CVT is going out on those from the day it leaves the factory

[harsh quartz]

You’ve got the v6 rav4 though right?

[long briar]

ya

[harsh quartz]

Even my 4 cylinder rav4 has plenty of power for daily driving, never feels like I’m being put in a dangerous situation when I have to pull out or speed up on the highway/interstate

[long briar]

what year?

[harsh quartz]

2017, it’s an SE AWD model

[uneven gulch]

how much would you guys pay for a pc with 16gb ram a 4500 for a cpu and a 6800 for a gpu with the asrock a520m-hdv mobo

[long briar]

those 6 speeds are awesome

[harsh quartz]

She’ll easily sit at 80+ on the interstate, if I put the right tires on her, but she doesn’t like the ones I have on now so I keep it between 70-80

[uneven gulch]

and 1tb storage

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, I like it, but I’m at 150k miles and the person who drove it for the first 100k was rough and didn’t get the services done, so mines a little rougher than most, but she still drives fine

[remote saddle]

hi

[silk island]

says someone who likely speeds themselves

not saying going 96 isn't dumb but this is filled with irony bc almost everyone speeds

[lilac bear]

I called it

[silk island]

everyone as a whole needs to learn to not speed and respect the damn speed limits

everyone also needs to learn to not be shitty drivers

[harsh quartz]

5 over versus 60 over is VERY different.

Even the law agrees, 5 over is a small fine, 20+ in most places will put you at risk of losing your license

[lilac bear]

70 over if you account for her trying to correct someone, "it's actually a 25MPH zone"

[harsh quartz]

It’s whatever, at that point it’s semantics

Damn how many edits you gonna make?

[silk island]

my point stands, respect the damn speed limit

[lilac bear]

I added so much unnecessary words

[silk island]

do not go over it, it won't save you any time

[harsh quartz]

Your point is dumb. And moving goalposts. And ignoring the fact that he was a dumbass in this scenario.

[lilac bear]

me when I back track from saying everyone speeds

[silk island]

i did not say he wasn't a dumbass

i said straight up that it was dumb of him to go 95

and my point isn't dumb

it would actually reduce crashes and incidents if people respected the speed limit

[lilac bear]

you cannot give up that going 96MPH in a residential zone is a bad idea

[sacred orchid]

cant be going over the speed limit anywhere

[harsh quartz]

Driving 70 when traffic is flowing 80, but the posted limit is technically 70, is dumb and more dangerous than just goin 80 with the rest of traffic

[lilac bear]

oh join her new goal post sure

[sacred orchid]

what

[silk island]

i go 102-105 in a 110 km/h zone. idc about other traffic.

they can pass me if they care that much

[sacred orchid]

squeeze through traffic then laggah

(dont)

[silk island]

the faster you go the longer it takes to completely slow down and stop if necessary

[harsh quartz]

5 km/h isn’t nearly the same as mph. 10 mph is quite a lot on an interstate

But this is still moving goalposts.

[silk island]

idc if im moving goalposts or not

its a conversation

[lilac bear]

[harsh quartz]

A bad one

[lilac bear]

"I refuse to admit I was wrong"

[silk island]

okay point to where i explicitly said that it wasn't wrong of mkbhd to drive 95 in a 25mph zone

[lilac bear]

"speeding 70MPH over the limit in a residential zone is a bad idea after all"

[silk island]

oh wait you can't bc i didn't say that

[lilac bear]

96* holy fuck

you keep saying 95

illiterate fuck

[silk island]

you're arguing over semantics at this point

[lilac bear]

don't take what Polar said about you and repeat it

[harsh quartz]

No, your point is more “because it’s normalized for people to do 5-10 over in heavy traffic, doing 60+ over isn’t a big deal”

[lilac bear]

I told you to stop repeating what Polar already said

[harsh quartz]

Kek

[silk island]

that was not what i was implying at all

bottom message in this

[sacred orchid]

reading comprehension lost

[silk island]

i literally said straight up that it was wrong

you guys argue for the sake of arguing and are twisting my words

[sacred orchid]

first time?

[harsh quartz]

Then what’s your implication with this?

[sacred orchid]

this is like a regular occurence xd

[silk island]

the fact that its still ironic for someone to criticize speeding when they likely do it themselves even if its not anywhere near as much over as mkbhd did in that dumb video

[sacred orchid]

some mf started malding cuz i said theres a tendency for redditors to have a sky high ego on surface level knowledge yesterday 🤣
"b-but not all redditors"

[harsh quartz]

And with this, your equating 5mph over to 60+mph over

[sacred orchid]

arguments are very common tldr

[silk island]

no i am not

[lilac bear]

talking to yourself much

[silk island]

speeding is bad, speeding 60+ mph over is ludicriously stupid

[harsh quartz]

They do that a lot, they keep causing arguments in tc1 and I refuse to interact with them

[lilac bear]

also why are you siding with the person who is defending MKBHD doing 96MPH in a residential zone

[sacred orchid]

well ur replying to it so no 😁

[harsh quartz]

The fact that riverance is the one I agree with most out of yall is wild

[sacred orchid]

im not siding with them idek what they said

[silk island]

i am not defending marques speeding, he did something insanely stupid

[graceful burrow]

What are you guys arguing about lol

[silk island]

but all speeding is stupid, what he did was ludicriously stupid

[lilac bear]

I love

[harsh quartz]

Apparently, im not allowed to criticize someone’s going 60+ mph over cause sometimes I go 5mph over

[lilac bear]

someone tried to defend MKBHD with "everyone speeds, it's not a problem" and now they moved goal posts to that all speeding is bad

[silk island]

why exactly do you do that in the first place?

you're not going to get where you're going any faster

[graceful burrow]

It sounds like all of you are wasting your time
Think about who's saying this

[silk island]

other than maybe shaving like five seconds off the total drive time

[harsh quartz]

I get there 5mph faster, actually

[graceful burrow]

Get it together

[sacred orchid]

what do u love

[lilac bear]

pizza

[sacred orchid]

nice same

[harsh quartz]

You ever taken like a 4-8 hour trip?

[graceful burrow]

😘

[silk island]

no.

[harsh quartz]

Yeah when your drive is 5 minutes it shaves off 5 seconds, sure, but when your on the interstate for the next 5 hours, an extra 10mph shaves off a good bit

[graceful burrow]

Guys do you think elden ring will win goty

[silk island]

yeah but it increases the risk of an incident

[harsh quartz]

I think it’d be funny as fuck if it did, so I hope it does

[graceful burrow]

Me too, real bad

[silk island]

10mph is a fuckton more than 10km/h

[graceful burrow]

Evelyn we're talking about video games now

[silk island]

no

[graceful burrow]

Lame

[harsh quartz]

Again, your just restating things I’ve already said and arguing it back to me

[graceful burrow]

Lame as a horse

I tried

[harsh quartz]

Lame as glue*

[silk island]

speed limits are in place for a reason polar

they aren't meant to be ignored

[harsh quartz]

Everyone’s mad cause dlc wasn’t allowed in previous years just cause it was DLC, but for Elden ring they’ve made the exception to that rule, so I wanna see it win

[graceful burrow]

Me too yeah, it's gonna be crazy I'm confident it'll win

[silk island]

the only reason people get away with it is because its impossible to give everyone who drives over an infraction unless there are speed cameras installed literally everywhere

[harsh quartz]

Only contender I can see possibly contesting is the other souls like, Monkee game, just cause of how big it was in the east

[graceful burrow]

Yeah
I think balatro has a good chance too

[silk island]

💀

[lilac bear]

wow almost like MKBHD broke this

[graceful burrow]

Ultimately I only care if elden ring dlc wins, everything else is whatever it's just a bunch of old dudes voting

[harsh quartz]

Balatro, even though it’s liked, I feel like it’s still kinda niche to be a GOTY, since goty is known to bias AAA titles with spectacle over anything else

[silk island]

no shit sherlock

[graceful burrow]

Who cares kek

[lilac bear]

would a multiplayer game get GOTY? because kinda surprised HD2 isn't on there
but at the same time holy fuck did Sony shoot that game in the gravel pit

[sacred orchid]

yes, overwatch did for example

[harsh quartz]

It is, isn’t it?

I thought helldivers was on the list

[lilac bear]

not for the actual GOTY

but the sub categories yes

[harsh quartz]

And what the fuck is this metaphor game

When was this a thing?

[raven grove]

HD2 won a couple awards at golden joystick

[harsh quartz]

Oh, I must’ve seen the subcategory and assumed. Cause I also though satisfactory was on there

[lilac bear]

AstroBot, Wukong, Balatro, Erdtree DLC, FF7 Rebirth, and Metaphor: Refantazio

I wouldn't be lying if one of the reasons HD2 fell off is because for some god forsaken reason Arrowhead keeps balancing the game as if it was PvP and not PvE

[harsh quartz]

Aight I’ve looked up metaphor and it just looks like a generic jrpg

“Is this persona?”

[lilac bear]

legit thought the same

[harsh quartz]

Apparently, great critic and audience scores, but I feel like that’s too niche to with a GOTY as well

[crystal pike]

Should i get a t470

its expensive asf

[raven grove]

Thats part of it, I think banning it in like 100+ countries disnt help

[crystal pike]

the las vegas gp is in less than three hours

[boreal token]

We're so back

[raven grove]

Oh shit

[boreal token]

Friggan penatrating oil beer

Drove 45 min to get it

[raven grove]

Better be good

[crystal pike]

what is that

is it a catalyst converter?

[raven grove]

What

[crystal pike]

I dont know

I’m trying to figure out what it is

[raven grove]

The beer or pb blaster?

[crystal pike]

Is it a quenching oil? Couldnt figure out anything from the labels

[crystal pike]

Pb blaster?

[raven grove]

It quenches something alright

[crystal pike]

is it beer?

[raven grove]

Yes

[crystal pike]

oh

[raven grove]

Designed after pb blaster, a penetrating oil

[boreal token]

@raven grove sending a buddy in new england some goofy ohio beers

Including the blaster

Also average discord interaction above wtf

[raven grove]

Probably significantly less dangerous than dead mans curve

[boreal token]

I still go around it going 80 idgaf

[raven grove]

Mad lad

[boreal token]

This could fix me

Wanna get faded off the kirk

Why they discontinue it

[raven grove]

Thats some 3d asset beer right there

Generic ass beer

[raven grove]

[cursive pumice]

Volkswagen has sold more sausages then cars

[raven grove]

[boreal token]

[raven grove]

Solid stout.
Probably

[boreal token]

technically not allowed to ship alcohol in the mail
