its a shit device in comparison to anyones desktop here and it shows 9 on the CPU score. Everyone will prob get 9.9 on everything

C:\Windows\Performance\WinSAT\DataStore Go here and you will get the really detailed metrics about your PC

[wraith sonnet]

Get-WmiObject -class Win32_WinSAT

[patent violet]

Im talking really detailed

uh wow ok

Huh

[wraith sonnet]

it looks like it's being maintained based off the scores

[patent violet]

check those xml files in that folder I linked

there is prob reasoning in there

I should make an XSL for this so it displays pretty formatted

Ok so the DirectX versions are only 9 and 10 in the testing

I wonder if we can add 11 and 12

[wraith sonnet]

well considering I only play tf2 that's not a problem

[patent violet]

So my desktop is running at 2019.78 fps

nice

[patent violet]

and it gives you your drive stats too

[wraith sonnet]

yeah these drives aren't great

[patent violet]

ok so this is actually telling me something really interesting

the slowest part of my drive at 1292mbps is at the start of the drive up until 16GB in

[wraith sonnet]

drive wearing out?

[jaunty compass]

I'm just printing with bog standard pla but so far it has been about as painless as a 3d printer can possibly be

all i had to do was get it set up, load the filament, hook it up to the network, and now i'm printing

i'm so glad manual bed leveling is something i don't have to do anymore lmao

[patent violet]

The fastest is at 3000mbps (This is seq reads btw, same effects tho with the other tests) which is at the 80G mark up until the 105G mark

[patent violet]

No this is somewhat expected. Although yes I suspect there is something to this at play still.

Drives will show these interesting characteristics and you could use this data to figure out where the drive is doing its best. Even perhaps setup blanking and exclusions on those zones to increase performance at the cost of space

Mine is showing it moreso than most but its been through hell

[lilac bear]

this actually just helps prove how easy the Q1 Pro is to use 😭

Bambu took the title of "out of the box printing"

but damn Qidi Q1 Pro really can

kinda skeptical cause no one really mentions it and bias exists :3

[jaunty compass]

well...yeah

I'm not new to 3d printing but like
man i'm glad i didn't have to fuck around for an hour before i could start using the new one

[lilac bear]

yeah 3D printing in 2024 is way more automatic and cheaper than people think it is

Ender V2 stuck in public perception still

[lilac bear]

breaking news people follow trends

more at 11

wait nvm finally a moment to make the mood shitty

the chain is broken

[west yoke]

corsair is a good and safe brand for PSU right?

[jaunty compass]

That's the printer I'm upgrading from lmao

The ender 3 V2

[frosty bison]

hii

[lilac bear]

holy upgrade

even though the V3 KE exists, dayummmbah

[winged spire]

Im debating buying the prusa core upgrade

I bought a mk4s like 2 months ago lmao

its like 400 euro

so if I sold my mk4s and just bought a prusa core id be better off

but thats so much effort dealing with fb market place shortbus people

[lilac bear]

isn't Prusa making an upgrade kit for the MK4S to adapt to the Core One

[lilac bear]

whatever Elon enjoyer

[winged spire]

[lilac bear]

I bet you'd buy a Cybertruck

and post selfies with it

[civic fox]

💀

[jaunty compass]

the build volume was smaller than what i needed

[lilac bear]

here's another Elon

[winged spire]

you really like talking about elon

[lilac bear]

you really like Elon

[restive lion]

shitting on elon is pretty fun

[winged spire]

its kinda weird pls keep urfetishes private

[winged spire]

agree but he has some weird like obession

[lilac bear]

you fetishize Elon publically

[winged spire]

he will just randomly start yapping about elon

[lilac bear]

cause he's a nuisance

[winged spire]

case in point

[winged spire]

You are one to talk lmao

[lilac bear]

you aren't denying that you enjoy Elon are you

[winged spire]

I have literally never said I like elon

[lilac bear]

so it's factual

[jaunty compass]

a filament recycler could be pretty sweet

[lilac bear]

I'm spitting facts and you're angry

[jaunty compass]

I want to get something like that

[lilac bear]

Elon is a bad man

[civic fox]

hes in love with elon thats what

[winged spire]

I like spaceX because theyre objectively the most active space organization in history

SpaceX is not elon

I know for a fact youre too stupid to understand nuance though

[lilac bear]

yeah personal attacks because I said Elon is bad

[winged spire]

wow you are just so fucking stupid

its like talking to a wall

[jaunty compass]

I might pick up a spool of petg

[restive lion]

at some point i vote we just delete the public chats altogether

[jaunty compass]

[lilac bear]

oh you're too busy enjoying Elon to not defend him at any moment

[winged spire]

literally any time in chat this dude will bring up elon because I like spaceX and he saw that I was talking about spaceX literally 1 time

[lilac bear]

"oh he said ELON"

[long briar]

Surprising how popular Enders are compared to Prusas despite originally being a prusa clone

[lilac bear]

Creality is incredibly accessible and cheap

[winged spire]

he does it multiple times a day

[jaunty compass]

price is extremely powerful lol

[long briar]

so are sovols which are literally better

[lilac bear]

you can buy an Ender in so many parts of the world

[winged spire]

its really odd I think he might be crushing on me

[lilac bear]

you'd enjoy it if I wore a paper of Elon's face wouldn't you

[winged spire]

id enjoy if you would stop talking

but we cant all have what we want lol

the new 3d printers have no idea what it was like 10 years ago

[lilac bear]

I'll jump up and down like Elon did at Trump's rally

[winged spire]

the fun crealities

[winged spire]

youre a trump supporter? eww

explains a lot lolll

[long briar]

can we not...

profiling is crazy

[lilac bear]

it was a meme you dumb ass

[winged spire]

Creality like 10 years ago would just regularly send murder printers

[lilac bear]

so many people mocked it

[winged spire]

I dont know much about elon memes sorry

[lilac bear]

not surprised you're opposed to mocking Elon

given how much you enjoy Elon

[long briar]

I don't care what it was 10 years ago, most modern printers can bang out a first layer that'd have been considered godly just 3 years ago

[winged spire]

just having a conversation 🤷

[lilac bear]

you're talking to a brick wall

[winged spire]

Im not speaking to you anymore so... no

my first cr10 in like 2015 would heat its bed up uncontrollably as soon as it had power, even if the main switch was off

it was 110 degrees before I noticed

[lilac bear]

yap yap you'd enjoy if Tesla made a 3D printer

[winged spire]

I sent it back to gearbest (yes gearbest)

the one they sent back would send mains voltage through the frame

[supple pawn]

That seems dangerous

[lilac bear]

go on about Tesla 3D printer

[winged spire]

gearbest doesnt even exist anymore its been turned into just an actual scam site

[blissful bronze]

Omg

I cant wait!!

[lilac bear]

oh guys Tesla amazing company

[blissful bronze]

12/12/24

[winged spire]

a little shock gets the heart going trust

[lilac bear]

I can't wait for the Optimus robot

[blissful bronze]

Jack ingof.. son of greg ingof is Turning 5 years old

[lilac bear]

it'll cook my food for me

[winged spire]

who?

[blissful bronze]

Jack ingof🗣️

Jacking of..

[wraith sonnet]

wait is tesla actually making a prtinter?

[lilac bear]

nah I'm just shit posting

[winged spire]

Riverence would know he likes talking about tesla

[blissful bronze]

Tesla sucks

[wraith sonnet]

I know build quality isn't great but hey at least customer service is good when you have an actual problem

[long briar]

Nah

[lilac bear]

almost as much as you'd yap about Tesla Optimus

[supple pawn]

Don't mind Riverence, they just fantasizing about their future Optimus bot lover

[long briar]

Teslas are interesting, not good not bad

[blissful bronze]

Bad

[winged spire]

teslas new eitherloop is super intriging

canbus needs to fuck off

[lilac bear]

see see

[long briar]

They're pretty bad cars with really good and innovative tech

[blissful bronze]

I want smoke, noise and pullition!!!

[winged spire]

do you even know what etherloop is ?

[blissful bronze]

I want a car i can work on

[lilac bear]

Aquatic cannot shut up about Tesla

[long briar]

Did you know water vapour is considered a greenhouse gas?

[supple pawn]

I want cars powered by micro fusion reactors

[winged spire]

you literally brought it up dipshit

[lilac bear]

you said I was a brick wall

so no I couldn't have

[winged spire]

and with every message you prove me correct

[supple pawn]

How do we get Riverfuck to go away? Lol

[blissful bronze]

I want a clapped out Toyota with 430 whp and 0 interior just 1 race seat steering wheel and ecu screen. So call in advance i gotta install a passenger seat and need ur weight so i can adjust the suspension

[long briar]

SpaceX chopsticks is genuinely impressive though.

[lilac bear]

as long as Aquatic can shut up about Tesla for one message

[winged spire]

I saw that catch

sick af

[lilac bear]

oh now he's going to talk about SpaceX

[blissful bronze]

[supple pawn]

Aqua, you have an admirer, I think.

[long briar]

chopsticks, handing on a raft, etc. they're all actually really really cool

[lilac bear]

another Elon company

[long briar]

Elon I'm neutral on

[winged spire]

I havent even spoken in here in a few weeks and he still remembers me

[blissful bronze]

Guys i found my xbox after uhm like 4 years and it just booted right up 😭

[long briar]

just because it's an Elon company doesn't mean everything is Elon's work

[supple pawn]

The OG box?

[winged spire]

This all started when I said that the optimus robot has some cool engineering behind it and hes been harrassing me since lol

[blissful bronze]

It kept it outside in a barn!! Idk how it works

[lilac bear]

that's the joke

[long briar]

Elon is nothing without the engineers behind him

[blissful bronze]

Yea

[long briar]

just like Steve Jobs is nothing with Woz

[blissful bronze]

Oooold school before 360

[lilac bear]

because the robot isn't actually going to do your dishes

[winged spire]

nobody said that it would??

[supple pawn]

I have a nice Samsung that does my dishes

[long briar]

this brings shame to the Optimus name

[lilac bear]

it's not an actual fully AI human replica

[winged spire]

cool... nobody said it was

are you hearing voices?

[lilac bear]

which you proposed it was

[winged spire]

where, literally where

[long briar]

With the Optimus name I'd have imagined it looked more like

https://tenor.com/view/optimus-kitty-rotb-optimus-kitty-noah-kitty-optimus-gif-1293654216284577101

[supple pawn]

https://tenor.com/view/sealyx-transformers-transformers-g1-optimus-prime-bumblebee-gif-14411141678095495219

[lilac bear]

you kept defending it as if it would fight for you

[winged spire]

show me where I said that @lilac bear I will paypall you 300$ if you can show me where I said that it would be a full AI replical of a human

show me please send the screenshots

I will literally paypal you 300$ right now if you can

[supple pawn]

Hold on, let me bust out MS paint

[lilac bear]

so you admit it isn't a functional robot then

[winged spire]

Yes? its literally a prototype

[lilac bear]

finally peace

[winged spire]

youre dumber than a brick wall fr

[supple pawn]

This chat is misery. 2077 can't come fast enough.

[winged spire]

this LITERALLY all started when I said that the engineering behind optimis is cool and he somehow misinterpreted that so far to say its "a pefect human replica"

[lilac bear]

I hated you because you thought the Optimus robot would actually be able to replace humans

[long briar]

How effective are personal attacks against someone else in a chat?

[winged spire]

youre stupid then /shrug

[lilac bear]

yeah I'm very hurt

[winged spire]

I dont care anymore, hes literally been harrasing me for months

[lilac bear]

he called me a brick wall

[supple pawn]

It's not even that personal of an attack.

[long briar]

if you wanna humiliate someone, prove them wrong with clear and laid out facts, not with personal attacks

[lilac bear]

so offended

[supple pawn]

You want a personal attack?

I hope you step on a piece of lego, barefoot!

[winged spire]

for MONTHS now he'd see me in chat and do all this elon shit

Extremely weird and you should seek therapy

[lilac bear]

well you admitted the Tesla Optimus robot isn't perfect

peace is restored

[frozen vault]

What is the adrenaline software for the 9800x3d?

[winged spire]

I NEVER SAID IT ........... youre literally seeing things bro

[long briar]

Aquatic you've mentioned Riverence 20 more times than he has mentioned you

[dusky jacinth]

Their solar program seems interesting so far.

[long briar]

what do you think that says about you?

[winged spire]

I reply, he doesnt as you can see in the chat logs

[lilac bear]

whatever you say, it's more peaceful now

[frozen vault]

?

[supple pawn]

Can we all shut the fuck up about Optimus please? Lol

[long briar]

and so why are you still here then? He purposefully doesn't ping you and you can just walk away

[winged spire]

literally been doing this for months

you are involving yourself /shrug

[frozen vault]

What is the adrenaline software for the 9800x3d?

[long briar]

igpu

[frozen vault]

Wut

[long briar]

Again, why are you so uptight about someone online that you don't even know.

Just... block and walk away?

[frozen vault]

Do I disable it or enable it cause it lowkey lowered my temps

[winged spire]

for sure 👍

[supple pawn]

You talking the Ryzen Master software for overclocking?

[long briar]

congrats you figured out the magic of the internet

[long briar]

it's not bad software, just not very useful for the most part

[dusky jacinth]

I've come to accept that he's also on one side a troll to mostly this channel alone, so ignoring him is what I go with.

[long briar]

but if it lowered your temps, great

[winged spire]

do we know what happened to the few channels in the recent culling?

mac address and such

is it just financial issues with all the labs investment?

[frozen vault]

Alr, also the 9800x3d runs hot right? Cause sometimes it gets to like 88c

[frozen vault]

At 100% util on cinebench*

[winged spire]

yall seen the new jag car they just showed off

[supple pawn]

I mean, all modern CPUs will run into the 80s with heavy load? Seems normal.

[long briar]

real

[frozen vault]

Ight

[supple pawn]

Real what?

[winged spire]

just buy some LN2 ez

I been wanting to try some extreme cooling

[supple pawn]

If you're going to go that route, I suppose 80s is real high lol

[winged spire]

I also happen to have the resources to make my own pots

Chunks of copper are expensive though..

[supple pawn]

I got a shop for the fab part lol

[winged spire]

I love machining

blast some tunes and just crank out some parts

[supple pawn]

They going through a slow point, I could probably push a PO through for a small project.

[winged spire]

my uni recently got a super nice HAAS cnc lathe and ive been wanting to just fuck around with

[supple pawn]

You in uni? Enjoy that, I miss those days

[winged spire]

I might keep going for a masters

idk.. extra 2 years lol

[supple pawn]

I stopped at bachelors, couldn't deal with more debt. Student loans are rough.

[winged spire]

yeah..

[long briar]

REAL

wait if they're american that might make sense

[winged spire]

I could probably swing it to have most of my masters covered

most*

[west yoke]

does anyone knows a service where I can put specs and get a reliable info of FPS it'll run? can you run it seems really bad

[winged spire]

the biggest net loss would just be.. being in school rather than a full time job

[supple pawn]

Yes, make fun of people with financial difficulties, real fucking good there.

Quick way to ensure nobody respects you.

[winged spire]

Last year I absolutely burn myself out 💀 I was working part time, 20 hours a week at an internship and a fulltime student

[supple pawn]

Yup. Now you're going into politics. You really are looking to make people loathe you, aren't you?

Just going to block and move on, you aren't worth shit anyway.

Don't misunderstand me, I am happy to insult you.

[supple pawn]

I tried working full time and student full time, not a great idea. Did okay until thermodynamics and diff eq.

[winged spire]

REAL

Thermo makes me literally want to die

I cant imagine being a full time student AND full time job while taking thermo

it doesnt help that my school is on the quarter system so everything is super sped up

[supple pawn]

Yeah, had to take that one over lol

[winged spire]

10 week courses

[supple pawn]

Ah, we had standard pacing at least

[winged spire]

Im working on my next L1 rocket

cant afford the L2 I want lol

[full fossil]

Real

[winged spire]

I need to get better at like.. any art program lol

I wanna make some decals for my next rocket so it isnt just one color but I am the least artistic person ever

[supple pawn]

Oh, I can't do art things, like at all.

[winged spire]

maybe ill just go to like fivver or something lol... give them a pretty unique project

[supple pawn]

I think I'm way too far into the workflow of making models/drawings of hydraulic/mechanical structures that it's real difficult not to go into those habits. Different worlkflow, you know?

[winged spire]

forsure

My friend is CRACKED at blender but cannot do "real" cad to save his life lol

he cant kick the blender habits

[supple pawn]

I'll tell you what, making the models in Solidworks is actually pretty damn fun. Converting to fab drawings is a pain. Then there's submitting the drawings for approval by multiple people, managing revisions, pushing the models through to the ERP so fabrication/purchasing can do their thing. The logistics is crazy.

[winged spire]

If I get the choice I usually choose inventor because the workflow when actually MAKING the stuff from the cad is better

if im not actually going to end up manufacturing it myself.. solid works is pretty equal

[supple pawn]

I played around with inventor for a very short while. Also tried Solidedge. Used to use Autocad/bricscad, then the went to SW. It all depends on what you're using it for.

[winged spire]

I wanna get good at autocad or something but I just dont have the time ;-;

[supple pawn]

I do not recommend AutoCAD for 3d modeling. For 2d it's great. They way I look at it is this: AutoCAD was invented for 2d drawings decades ago. 3d was an add-on. SW and I'm sure inventor was designed for 3d. If you're doing 3d, use a software designed for it at it's inception.

You can get Solidworks for makers real cheap right now actually. Its not as full featured as the stand alone full install, but it's great for 3d printing and hobby stuff. I think it's like $24/yr?

https://www.solidworks.com/solution/solidworks-makers

[winged spire]

Yeah my college gives it to us for free

Im knee deep into the indoctrination

like what adobe does

[supple pawn]

My college didn't have Solidworks. Had Autodesk stuff, I think. Rarely used it. They did have a full version of visual Studio. I miss that.

[winged spire]

the student stuff for autodesk is WILD

[tulip bobcat]

https://youtube.com/shorts/RbpV6_rITqM?si=S7g2pShQIX_9D6RL

[tulip bobcat]

Wtf lmao

[winged spire]

I get access to basically every bit of software they have

its like $200k work of software lol

Ive been sending them the same student ID for like 5 years

[supple pawn]

Yeah. Just do not use it for commercial anything. They do not mess around with licenses.

[winged spire]

completely automated auth process

[supple pawn]

Yeah, you can probably get away with using your student ID for quite a while. But if they catch you using it to make money somehow, you're gonna have a bad time lol

[winged spire]

yeah forsure

I dont have the money to be involving lawyers yet lol

[primal kindle]

So when software developers ditch windows 10 like they did with windows 7, we will be going to linux mint right? 🤔

Thanks to microsoft, who made me strong to think about migrating to linux mint

[magic current]

Personally I'm just waiting for Linus to grow his beard back

[primal kindle]

I am using win 10 ltsc on my pc, i am thinking to use atlas (win 10) at least once before going to linux mint

tweaking ltsc manually was really fun btw

Linux Mint : hmm

[civic fox]

also use arch btw

[primal kindle]

i am not familiar with linux stuff at all, but reddit convinced me enough to try mint.

[primal kindle]

i have never touched linux btw ':3

[civic fox]

been using it for quite some time

[primal kindle]

I am familiar with cli working also, it won't be so headache for me

that's why i thanked Microsoft (powershell , command prompt)

[prime solstice]

My papa or dad aren’t software devs and their pc can’t run windows 11 and I don’t wanna get a phone call in the middle of me working saying that they bricked their system and they need me to come and fix it so I followed a tutorial to get windows 11 on older devices

[vapid smelt]

Chrome os baby

[prime solstice]

Fuck chrome os

[vapid smelt]

Gasp

[prime solstice]

I will never use that os ever again

[vapid smelt]

Chrome os is perfect for older non tech people imo

[prime solstice]

My papa and dad only know windows

[civic fox]

chrome os i heard is being replaced by android

but i cant confirm it for sure

[prime solstice]

It’s basically android

[primal kindle]

i mean, all they need is app shortcut.

[civic fox]

no like its being scrapped and it will be plain android

[prime solstice]

Idk I haven’t used chrome os anymore since I graduated from high school

[civic fox]

thats what i heard

i do still own a 500 dollar chromebook unfortunately

[dusky jacinth]

It's desktop Android on top of Gentoo basically.
Might end up changing later though to full-on Android or something.

[manic torrent]

yes, but it's the same shit

It wouldn't be different really

[civic fox]

yea pretty much garbage hardware with something that might be more useful

idk i use loonix so

[full fossil]

can someone help me? my pcs stuck in a boot loop

https://discord.com/channels/375436620578684930/1313382753982746654

[civic fox]

at least it isn't manjaro

[prime solstice]

What’s the problem with Manjaro

[dusky jacinth]

I dunno, but it's hella weird to me. Lol.

[civic fox]

its trash

[prime solstice]

I don’t find it trash

[civic fox]

oh well

honestly i wonder if its possible to make android fully desktop compatible (unless thats a thing already)

[prime solstice]

I know diy perks did it when they teamed up with mrwhosetheboss on making the worlds biggest phone

[civic fox]

like it basically looks like a desktop with a tasbar full apps etc but running android

[civic fox]

i did see that video

[alpine gale]

If the rumors are true, Google's been working on this for a while...
https://www.androidauthority.com/chrome-os-becoming-android-3500661/

[civic fox]

ah i knew it, anyway this will be interesting to see

what about chromebooks that already have chromeos and are supported for like 7 more years

do they stick on chromeos or do they switch

[alpine gale]

We have an older but still supported Lenovo IdeaPad Duet with a MediaTek Helio P60T processor that's capable of running Android apps alongside Chrome windows. It's hardware is lacking (read: it's CPU is a slug after 6 years) but it's nice to have access to apps alongside a web browser.

[civic fox]

i have the duet 5

[alpine gale]

That's EXACTLY what I'd like Google to clarify before I spend a penny more on a replacement Chromebook device. I've been eyeing up one of Lenovo's newer Duet Chromebooks (likely the 13" version) but I cannot justify purchasing it if they decide to say "screw everyone who bought devices before the switch."

[civic fox]

i would love to know that as well

[manic torrent]

that's the million dollar question

[winged spire]

Google following through on their product support promises? literally impossible

[civic fox]

yea it really is because it makes it confusing like can they send an update that unlocks the bootloader or smth and put android on it idfk

[manic torrent]

huh? why would they unlock the bootloader?

[civic fox]

so that i can do what i want with it if they wont allow me to have android on it

put loonix on it

[manic torrent]

LOL

[civic fox]

yea

[manic torrent]

realistically it's about merging chromeos and android, not about getting rid of chromeOS per se

[civic fox]

they should remove chrome os because its ass

well with chrome removing adblock not so much

[calm swan]

probably with box 64

[civic fox]

hence why my duet 5 is just sitting there because i have no use for it compared to my linux machines

well microsoft is another can of worms tbf

mines a 8gb but either way idk what i can use it for since it wont let me install any other OS

apparently not

the duet 5 will be absolutely useless unless someone can figure it out

it has OLED i would love linux on that machine

um how am i supposed to do that when there are no screws ;-;

with the chances of breaking a 300 dollar screen

yea... i haven't done that

idk what use i can put it to tbh

it just sits there

[calm swan]

doesnt crosstini exist?

can run linux apps on chromeos

[civic fox]

probably

it doesnt seem to let me

well the numerous videos did not actually work

it is just usb c

[calm swan]

run linux apps on chromeos? that requires you to unlock a bootloader?

damn

[civic fox]

it doesnt actually

i dont have the bootloader unlocked but linux apps work

[pulsar violet]

Hot Take: I hate arm rests in my chairs and take them off since they always move around and hot things

[long briar]

man what the flip

[civic fox]

bruh

[long briar]

skill issue

[polar fern]

Hmmm

Trying to figure out the best cost/reliability in a 2 tb ssd

Hmm nevermind. Doesn’t look like you can remove it from the Mac mini’s board

External enclosure it is I guess

[grim belfry]

They don’t use standard m.2 SSDs…

[polar fern]

Yeah, I’ll just get an enclosure with good heat dissipation or such.

Upping the ram from 8 gig to 32 gig

[grim belfry]

I’m assuming from the factory

Because it’s soldered

[polar fern]

Nah

2018 has ram slots

[grim belfry]

Ooohhh Intel

[polar fern]

Yis

[grim belfry]

RIP SODIMMs in Macs

[polar fern]

It’s not the fastest thing of all time, but it works pretty well and it’ll work even better I imagine with more memory.

[grim belfry]

Yeah it’d be more than capable for most things, realistically

[polar fern]

I plan on doing some video editing, but mostly audio stuff

Because it has access to my iCloud photos and such, I can piece together things in iMovie and then export it and do the heavy editing on my new PC

OK, I have an emergency dentist appointment in the morning. I should probably grab some sleep.

[winged spire]

my launch site is 19 feet UNDER sea level lol

These $10 apple airtags 3rd party that are a really good value just got some compared to the $25 ones, still expensive but better for peace of mind for my luggage

[pallid falcon]

They're that cheap?

[pulsar violet]

And it’s Canadian https://a.co/d/aoFwvq1

No precision finding but still has sound

[pallid falcon]

Oh I thought you meant official apple

[pulsar violet]

No

Really good value though

All that matters is connecting to the find my network

[pallid falcon]

Random thought

Professors are sometimes incorporating youtube videos in lessons.. will they do same with shorts at some point?

🤔

[smoky badge]

[tulip bobcat]

Is my 128 gb ssd good

[pallid falcon]

Depends on use case

[tulip bobcat]

Games and animation

[pallid falcon]

No get biggee

[winged basin]

I wish we could see a video of linus unboxing and first look on a product on that old grey couch again.

[pliant leaf]

Non-apple tags lack some features

[pulsar violet]

Just the U1 chip isn’t it

[grim belfry]

No precision find

[blissful bronze]

Just rewatch it

[grim belfry]

And I don't think there is NFC on most either

[manic torrent]

Depends. What year is it?

[neon mesa]

What's the difference between iso alc and ethanol alc

Functionally

[patent violet]

one of them gets you drunk if you drink it

one of them makes you go blind and kills you

[neon mesa]

Sounds like there's no reason to not get the ethanol variant!

[prime solstice]

One burns when you put on your hands and the other is strong enough to burn your nose hairs

[patent violet]

as a disinfectant, ethanol will dry your skin out

iso evaps faster

also there is usually stuff mixed with ethanol variants unless you buy it as pure mixes

[prime solstice]

I’ve used ethanol once to clean my copy of Mario 64 and legend of Zelda Oot

[long briar]

they do this to prevent people from drinking it

especially because it smells... really nice

[patent violet]

https://www.laballey.com/products/ethanol-200-proof-100-tax-paid-decon-labs mauhahaha

[long briar]

yeahhh

[long briar]

that's what prevents people from drinking 90%+ ABV

[patent violet]

"you can get drunk off this"

[long briar]

like even moonshine is "only" 40%

[patent violet]

I wanna buy a pint

im buying a pint

[long briar]

wait

200 proof is 100% abv hollyyyyy

[patent violet]

here we go

[long briar]

That would go so hard for spitting flames

[pallid falcon]

W

[long briar]

I don't drink alcohol so it's the only use for it I can think of

[pallid falcon]

(Whats the use the image isn't loading for me)

Nothing is actually

Night be sign to go sleep

[long briar]

for 100% ABV it's supposed to be added to other things during manufacturing like drinnks

[patent violet]

Alright I got a pint of this shit on the way

[long briar]

more often lab use though

[long briar]

I can already smell it

[patent violet]

I was just thinking the same thing

like I feel the hairs curling

I also paid the extra $5 for a glass bottle, hopefully it arrives intact

[long briar]

I've never tasted ethanol before though

[prime solstice]

You’re gonna crack it open and vent out an entire room with ethanol fumes

[patent violet]

lol from 0 to explosive

[long briar]

real

[neon mesa]

Buy pure oxygen canister as a bonus

[long briar]

I wanna spit flames so bad

[neon mesa]

Turn your whole room into a rocket booster

[long briar]

the city I live in recently banned 4l jugs of vodka

because it was apparently too cheap and too accessible

[patent violet]

show up with this thing on your back

"Yeah I brought the good shit bro"

Later that night, everyone died in the hospital

[prime solstice]

I should get some to pour on my sidewalk so all the snow melts

[long briar]

that's... not how it works

[prime solstice]

I know

[patent violet]

https://www.laballey.com/products/ethanol-190-proof-certified-organic-sugar-cane-alcohol-1
They also got 190 proof from sugar cane omg I need this too

[pallid falcon]

Can I eat it

[long briar]

what theee

[long briar]

not the bottle, but you can drink it.

[patent violet]

They also sell 140 Proof straight

[pallid falcon]

Pfft, humans

[patent violet]

thats prob more reasonable

https://www.laballey.com/products/ethanol-190-proof-certified-organic-corn-alcohol Corn based...

[long briar]

Ah THIS is what most ethyl alcohol is made of in the states

everything is made of corn

the entire country built up by corn

I have no reason to type in this chat right now but the server requires me to for the get started thing on discord. congratulations I just wasted your time

[civic fox]

wouldnt be the first time LOL

[manic torrent]

Far less than some people

[long briar]

as if you weren't on a list already?

[pulsar violet]

Yup U1 is precision finding and sound is good enough tbh, how often do you need precision finding tbf

[pulsar violet]

On these ones there is that’s how it connected

[grim belfry]

If it's keys or a wallet more often than long distance finding

But wallets in 2024 are lame

[manic torrent]

Lol wallet. Boomer much?

[grim belfry]

Exactly

[pulsar violet]

yea but the sound emission works just as well or even better imo as its hard hook with U1 ive seen with my airpods

[civic fox]

still got mine

i still manage to lose it 5 times a week

[grim belfry]

Lose it permanently

Problem solved

[long briar]

grab a tracker for it then

[grim belfry]

Lose it permanently

[long briar]

I still have a card holder that I jam into my bag

[civic fox]

haha no i have 275 dollars in there

[grim belfry]

Deposit it at an ATM

[civic fox]

dont have a bank

[manic torrent]

I literally use my phone to pay for everything, everywhere.

[manic torrent]

Uhhhh

[civic fox]

i have cash and a card that totals that much

[long briar]

you see I want to do that, in fact I normally pay with my watch

but sometimes I just need to have a physical card on hand in case things go wrong

[late salmon]

paying with my watch would be overly inconvenient

[grim belfry]

https://tenor.com/view/just-do-it-do-it-flames-fire-shia-labeouf-gif-17696690

[long briar]

just today actually

[late salmon]

I have it set up, but it's just worse than my phone most of the time lol, since I have to flip my wrist upside down etc

[long briar]

This was super weird because I switched to my phone and it worked fine

[late salmon]

especially for payment terminals on UK self-service machines etc, the PDQ is in a weird spot

[long briar]

oh the tap point on my watch is the top of the watch

[grim belfry]

Yeah Apple Pay on my watch is weird

Feels wrong, and if I'm paying for something I have my phone on me anyway

[long briar]

I still don't know why it declined.

But when worst comes to worst, having a physical debit card on hand always helps

I have my credit cards in a safe and set up on my phone and watch

[grim belfry]

I don't have any physical personal cards

[long briar]

the city I live in is so behind in tech

that I also need to carry physical driver's license and transit card

[grim belfry]

L

I just use a forged digital driver's license

https://www.itnews.com.au/news/nsw-digital-drivers-licences-easily-forgeable-580150

I wonder if they ever actually fixed that

[manic torrent]

Left hand watch on drive through is no bueno

[long briar]

I realize I've never actually paid in a drive-thru

I always order ahead

[manic torrent]

If only I had an app on my phone where I could transfer money around to put more on the card the phone uses......

[patent violet]

The fact this is not validated off a backend is stupid as fuck

[grim belfry]

It is, but only on refresh

[long briar]

nono they're linked, this is my main account that I use for my phone

[grim belfry]

It's done so that it works offline I assume

[grim belfry]

Do they use the big long sticks for the payment terminal in hipster land?

[patent violet]

Should be marked [Not Validated]

or something

[long briar]

Like the card my watch and phone uses are the same

[manic torrent]

Yeah but they don't shove them all the way into the car

[grim belfry]

Police can always see the correct data

[long briar]

my watch got declined, my phone was fine.

[grim belfry]

They used them for a couple months here but now they just hang out the window

[manic torrent]

Skill issue. I have never ever had that.

[long briar]

EXACTLY

[manic torrent]

Every time it's declined it's because there's no money

[grim belfry]

I'm pretty sure the only thing that can be forged is the age for buying alcohol

[long briar]

I've NEVER had that before

they're actually on the same card tho

[manic torrent]

Might have worked if you just used the watch again tbh

[patent violet]

it prob would have

[grim belfry]

Probably just a bad tap

[patent violet]

did you not use it on the watch for a while

[long briar]

I use it basically every other day, though.l

[manic torrent]

There's lot of reasons why transactions fail

[grim belfry]

@patent violet

Update, 19/5 6.30pm: Service NSW told iTnews that the issue is known and does not pose a risk to customers.
I guess they haven't fixed it

[long briar]

O shoot last time I used it was Nov 26

still shouldn't be an issue tho?

[patent violet]

it couldve had the internal sync counter off by some amount

[manic torrent]

Should be fine. Was likely just a snafu

[long briar]

my phone ss

[long briar]

and this one didn't tell me anything

so no way to know why

oh well wearos things ig

[grim belfry]

Apple Pay is just better

[manic torrent]

And THAT is why you always leave a note.

[patent violet]

Oh the virtual number updated

and it was out of sync lol

[long briar]

wait do they update monthly?

[grim belfry]

But fuck you Apple for removing dual network support

[patent violet]

the virtual number used with merchants that you dont see rolls often

not the last 4 or whatever though

thats part of the fun

[long briar]

no I do see it

[grim belfry]

There are still a whole bunch of PSPs who don't use LCR

Give me back my dual network support Apple

Fuck you

[long briar]

it's called "virtual account number"

[patent violet]

I read LCR as Least Cost Routing

[grim belfry]

Correct

[patent violet]

ok so whats PSP

[grim belfry]

Payment service provider

[patent violet]

Why do they need LCR?

Im literally doing LCR on Kamailio for Telephony right now lol

thats the only LCR I know of

[grim belfry]

Because if they charge a dynamic surcharge, and they don't use LCR it will use Visa/Mastercard and the surcharge will be higher than if the EFTPOS network was used

https://www.rba.gov.au/payments-and-infrastructure/debit-cards/least-cost-routing/

Almost all cards in Australia are dual network with Visa/Mastercard and EFTPOS

But Apple removed the option to force the use of EFTPOS

Very niche rant but oh well

[long briar]

beyond me lmao

I just connect and use and hope no issues arise

[grim belfry]

https://tenor.com/view/charlie-always-sunny-in-philadelphia-gif-8902231

[patent violet]

Thats prob because... at least if im reading this right

LCR on tap and pay is toggled by the Merchant now

[grim belfry]

Incorrect

[patent violet]

and the only way you can override that is by using the actual card

[grim belfry]

It was an iOS 18 thing

[grim belfry]

iOS 17 users can still manually select the network

[patent violet]

OHH thats what its doing, its actually letting you do the manual override for tap and pay

[tulip river]

Fuck radio makers

[patent violet]

wooow wtf noo

[grim belfry]

Yes

[patent violet]

let the merchant choose

[grim belfry]

It was very handy

[grim belfry]

No why

[patent violet]

they pay the fees

[grim belfry]

Not in Australia they don't

[tulip river]

wait whats today's drama

[patent violet]

Whaaaaaaaaa

[grim belfry]

In most places the consumer get passed on the fees

[patent violet]

oh thats what you mean lol

[grim belfry]

Hence why I would like to choose the network with the lowest fees (EFTPOS)

[tulip river]

"cash is king" so i have a bank card in a sleeve that looks like money

[patent violet]

wait do they add that to the reciept as its own item?

[grim belfry]

Depends

[patent violet]

Like if its directly being passed down as a line item sure

[grim belfry]

It's tricky because that's not a taxable item

[tulip river]

you may sometimes see "processing fee" or "transaction fee"

very common when buying cars

[long briar]

that's so stupid

[patent violet]

Well yes but this is something else

[grim belfry]

It doesn't have to

[long briar]

this is your payment processor fee

[grim belfry]

It's optional

Blame the PSPs for pushing crap like this

Advertising "fee-free" payment solutions to the business but charging the consumer instead

[patent violet]

wait what the fuck

[grim belfry]

What

[patent violet]

yeah holy fuck

you are right what the fuck

[grim belfry]

I've really delved into this crap the past couple months as we recently changed PSPs

https://tenor.com/view/charlie-always-sunny-in-philadelphia-gif-8902231

[long briar]

wait that's acc so so so stupid

my condolences to you bruh

[grim belfry]

Taxis charge a 5% surcharge

It used to be 10%

@patent violet How long have you done telephony for

Is it just a recent thing?

[manic torrent]

Yeah but that's because fuck you

[grim belfry]

The taxi industry is so dodgy

[patent violet]

A few years now-ish

[grim belfry]

What soft switch do you use at work

Kolmisoft is pissing me off

[spiral zodiac]

I'm thinking the biggest driving factor for why sales were good this black Friday and cyber Monday were due to the risk of the tariffs coming. Nobody wants to pay stupid amounts more for stuff.

The same stuff they could have had for significantly less mere months ago.

[short rock]

ltt, guys, as much as I hoped math would be that simple, you can't simply subtract the percentages and go that way. it's not how it works. they have references, and you have to calculate based on those references.

as someone in comments said,
'Adding 25 cents to a dollar is an increase of 25%. Taking them away again is only a 20% decrease.'

[fossil frost]

people get that wrong all the time, and it does irritate me 😄

[short rock]

it'd be fine if it wasn't for a video that focused on numbers; but inaccurate values on product reviews affects what the end user thinks they're gonna get vs what they get

[blazing hemlock]

What am I looking at here.

Why is it on tape?

[strange elk]

Ooo

Man I want an actual walkman so bad

[golden atlas]

man, have you guys seen Gamers Nexus, newest video on NZXT? I didnt think the company could do this even

never

[golden atlas]

just look at reddit, there has to be someone who has asked that already

[supple pawn]

But I'm sure all the driver pains are solved by now

Plus AI!

[golden atlas]

id rather use the new Snapdragon elite phone cpu/gpu as a gpu than the intel one

Did...Linus just make a Yu-Gi-Oh reference? Lmao

We got Linus doing Yu-Gi-Oh jokes, Steve doing MtG jokes, where's Austin to make the Pokemon TcG jokes? Lol

[short rock]

the following was my response, in order.

"Yall noticed now?" (it's been like this for a while. I thought we knew, and that we understood that the parts were potentially used and old inventory)
"Oh, they advertise it as new and with no strings or cancellation fee and stuff."
"That's illegal?"
"Holy shit, that's illegal."
"Bro that's illegal"
"HOLY SHIT IT'S ILLEGAL"

[golden atlas]

xD

i havent been in the pc industry id say for a couple years now so i had no idea nzxt started rotting

[supple pawn]

Don't you worry, NZXT will issue an apology, we will all forget about it in a week, and no meaningful changes will be made.

[golden atlas]

nah, its like a oil fire that they will try to put out with water

i checked out nzxt's discord aswell, that was super dead aswell

[golden atlas]

"Oh, they advertise it as new and with no strings or cancellation fee and stuff."
"That's illegal?"
"Holy shit, that's illegal."
"Bro that's illegal"
"HOLY SHIT IT'S ILLEGAL" my exact toughts aswell, im watching the video rn to the end xD

also what the frick, they have access to anything u store on the pc u rent, like passwords and everything

[short rock]

as a part of said discord we're always like this; we come online & chat when we want to, and if we chance upon someone we know, all the better

[short rock]

yeah, well, if you keep that stuff on the drive and then give it back to them, they now have it

as long as you wipe it, or as I recommend, just use a different drive, you should be fine

[golden atlas]

also, the packing stuff seems ridiculous

[short rock]

I'd expect the average guy to be able to put two and two together and figure that out

what packing stuff? I haven't watched the full thing

[golden atlas]

the people renting are most likely 14 year olds so idk

[golden atlas]

You have to send the pc back in the exact condition you recieved it in aswell with the original packing. (packing peanuts and everything

bubblewrap must not be popped etc

[alpine temple]

Anyone know more abt the nzxt situation? I just bought a 3k prebuild no subscription

[jade snow]

Did they ever fix the DX11 performance?

[full fossil]

I think if your traveling to stay with a friend or family member for a couple months, being deployed somewhere for a short period of time, need a high end pc just for a single project, maybe want to try pc gaming for a month before you go buy one, and I am sure many other scenarios I can think of. Being able to rent a pc for a couple months could be a huge benefit.

I view the pc rental like a car rental situation, of course for most people buying one is a better deal, doesnt mean there isnt real use cases this helps people in

[supple pawn]

The problem isn't that there isn't a use case. The problem is the deceptive advertising, shady, anti-consumer contract requirements, and clearly trying to hide the use of old stock. Deceiving customers is always amoral and NZXT should be treated accordingly.

[alpine temple]

Okay thats what i thought a bunch of people said i might be affected but i just bought a 3k pc outright(not renting) but i think im fine guess imma found out when it get here 🤷‍♂️

[supple pawn]

Also, renting a PC is not a car rental situation. Renting a car is cheaper despite the car being many times more valuable, and a car is far more necessary than a gaming computer. NZXT's PC rental is like a 'getting a payday loan at 90% interest to buy spinning rims for your car which you'll never actually own' situation. Totally unnecessary, way to expensive, predatory, and incredibly stupid.

[minor patio]

that was not funny

but nvm

[full fossil]

I don't disagree with your main point but there is no car that you can rent and especially use as much as you want for a month for $60-260 lol

normally that much a day

[pallid falcon]

you can rent my pc if you want :3 (1k/mo)

[supple pawn]

You're right, I mixed up daily v monthly. My main point still stands, however. PC is a luxury and is like $1,500 and a car is, depending on the situation, a necessity and is like $40,000.

Not really apples to apples comparison.

[full fossil]

i think it would have been smarter to sell them at cost or even below

I can literally say "hold on let's run that back" and rewind the tape for the conversation

[dreamy thorn]

Ever heard of a cassette player?

[upbeat ermine]

no. whats that?

[strange elk]

Bought virtua.zip on cassette and it ended up getting eaten

Jensen player

Had the damn thing for a week and the tape was $20, way overpaid ngl

I just buy flac now and I'll get a dedicated player someday. Prob a 5th gen if any are left by the time I get to it

Always wanted an iPod classic. Since like elementary school

[fossil frost]

i had 2, and the first gen ipod touch... all 3 died over time

ipod touch only died last year

[strange elk]

I have the 6th gen touch, battery is bad and iOS 12 doesnt run well on it

Its been in pieces for years, the screws magnetized and organized on my desk support pole

Got it for free from a drug study kekw. Shoulda left it on iOS 10

[fossil frost]

replace battery and new flash? although 6th gen maxes out at 128gb

[obsidian oracle]

lol

[strange elk]

Idk if I care enough to ngl

Sounds like a lot of work I'm not qualified for

[fossil frost]

i took mine running and cycling with me, because if i dropped it or lost it or anything else happened to it... its less expensive to replace than my phone

less identity-theft-y than having my phone too

[strange elk]

I just want to have a device for music. Intent. I dont care enough till I have something high quality enough though

[fresh sorrel]

sameeeee i want to mod one so bad

i want that or a zune

[strange elk]

Dankpods really got me interested in it, but ofc I also want usb c and not to be restricted to alac.. Dont really want rockbox unless it feels/looks the same as stock

Foobar2000 is on iOS and you can throw flac on there from a pcs file explorer

[fresh sorrel]

theres a classic skin for rockbox

[strange elk]

What about performance?

[fresh sorrel]

and i want bluetooth support

[fresh sorrel]

ive heard its good and it looks p good too

[strange elk]

I'll have to check it out then

Bluetooth.. I'll prob just get a dongle for that

I could add a board but do I really wanna..?

Especially with the other mods I want like batt and flash

[fresh sorrel]

http://themes.rockbox.org/index.php?themeid=1310

This is the closest i believe

[fresh sorrel]

yessss aesthetics

theres also a mod that replaces the speaker with the taptic engine from the iphone 7 and its really coool

[strange elk]

On an iPod classic? I didnt know those had speakers

[fresh sorrel]

For like, UI noises

[strange elk]

Man that sounds awesome tbh. I love how taptic feels, exactly what I want for scrolling

[fresh sorrel]

My only issue is acquiring music TwT
I dont really listen to albums i just have a large playlist of random songs

I believe this company is the one that produces decent ones

[strange elk]

Yeah I also usually listen to singles so theres only like 20 albums I have

I just listen to singles on spotify for now

[fresh sorrel]

i use apple music since its cheeaper now

and lossless

[golden atlas]

soptify family is best

daw0id+09áiwdji90wad i have storek

[fresh sorrel]

i have a vendetta against spotify tbh i dont like the UI and crap

[strange elk]

Wonder if theres a dualsense version

[fresh sorrel]

lmao make it yourself

can just run the audio through the vibration motor

[strange elk]

I have solutions for that I'm not going to really explain

[fresh sorrel]

I love this one

[strange elk]

Could possibly fall under a rule but only reason I still do is because of it lol

[fresh sorrel]

still apple music has lossless and spotify doesnt smh

[strange elk]

Shit I have an apple watch I prob won't use again, its a gen 1

[golden atlas]

whats lossless

[strange elk]

Without loss

[obsidian oracle]

[obsidian oracle]

[strange elk]

Lmao

[fresh sorrel]

I REALLY want the energizer brick phone

[strange elk]

I prefer owning my music anyway because online services suck

[golden atlas]

amazing phone

[fresh sorrel]

I want it so bad

[golden atlas]

[strange elk]

What is that android 6

[fresh sorrel]

this was a prorotype shown off ages ago

huh MWC 2019 i totally thought it as older

[strange elk]

I wouldnt know. I knew KitKat, marshmallow and whatever android 13 is

[obsidian oracle]

25000mAh battery gang

[strange elk]

I forgot what my first and second android phone ran

[fresh sorrel]

18,000mAh battery

[strange elk]

20k anker batteries are larger than that thing is

[obsidian oracle]

wasted potential, even the latest redmagic has smth like 10k with still being 1/5th the size

[obsidian oracle]

cus theyre batteries that do reverse charging for plenty of devices

[fresh sorrel]

still 2019, Says Android 9

[obsidian oracle]

ah fair enough

[fresh sorrel]

and its not like energizer is really a phone company

[strange elk]

Reverse charging?

[obsidian oracle]

powering devices

[fresh sorrel]

no idea it never came out

[strange elk]

Oh PD

[fresh sorrel]

this was the only thing shown of it

[strange elk]

fair

[fresh sorrel]

it had a pop-up selfie camera with two cameras on it

[obsidian oracle]

aww that sucks

[obsidian oracle]

any pics of that?

[obsidian oracle]

damn

[strange elk]

I was more interested in the rugged stuff back then, so like caterpillars phone or smth

[obsidian oracle]

it better have some good portrait mode

[strange elk]

So like.. You can just install caps to iPods to make them sound better?

[obsidian oracle]

caps?

[fresh sorrel]

capacitors

[obsidian oracle]

capacitors?

i dont think thatll help

[fresh sorrel]

unless theyre literally broken i dont think it will really make a noticable difference

i mean recapping doesnt hurt though

[obsidian oracle]

why bother

[fresh sorrel]

doesnt hurt ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Im sure apple used good quality ones so its not like the OG xbox where id be worried about htem leaking randomly

[obsidian oracle]

selling it doesnt hurt either, even gives some money back

[fresh sorrel]

you can use that money to buy more caps

[obsidian oracle]

lol

[strange elk]

God usb c is expensive.

[merry basin]

hi

[fresh sorrel]

https://eoe.works/products/tarkan-diy-mod-soldering-audio-capacitor-bypass-kit?pr_prod_strat=e5_desc&pr_rec_id=b4d080905&pr_rec_pid=6922077143177&pr_ref_pid=7198323572873&pr_seq=uniform

I guess I gotta save $400 for this, or find something else lol. Honestly sucks but that moonlit market back looks really ideal and well thought out

[winged spire]

[gray zephyr]

i have my radiator fan on cpu_fan and aio pump on the aio_pump header , the cpu fan can't be controled

can i just use aio pump to the cpu fan in this case

[fossil frost]

pump header usually produces more current, to drive the pump, if you try and run it from a regular fan header, you can either kill the header, or, your pump will run slowly/badly

[full fossil]

I wonder if Lisa and Jensen have anymore cousins that could maybe run Intel

[rose garden]

hello can someone help me

my pc is tearing idk why

[solemn reef]

I currently have a rx6600 and i5 11400f do u think they are a solid combo or is the i5 just too weak for the rx 6600, the system is coming up on 2 years old should I upgrade components or just remain the same.

[solemn reef]

Tearing? Like screen tearing.

[fossil frost]

they are fine, especially if you are playing at 1080p

[solemn reef]

Yeah ok thanks so no bottle neck should be going on then? It says 8% bottleneck on test but I don’t know if they are the best testers online.

[solemn reef]

I have a 1440p monitor so run that on Fortnite and some games and it still handles well

[fossil frost]

bottleneck doesnt mean what you think it means... ignore the word entirely, and you will be happier

[solemn reef]

Yeah ok thank you

Bc when I run Fortnite it’s on high 1440p and I still pull a solid 120-100 fps but my cpu sits at 100% that’s shouldn’t be an issue?

[fossil frost]

thats fine, you are paying for all of a cpu, you should be using all of it

[solemn reef]

Yeah. Thank you for your help, bizzehdee
