Somehow if the VRAM is enough, I might to do MD simulation of entire cell

[full fossil]

Server is accesible from tailscale and I can work from anywhere with my laptop and phone.

[full fossil]

The problem is WHERE should I put it

[wintry robin]

How to use use XLA for coding?

I mean calling XLA lib

[full fossil]

Use Jax

[wintry robin]

Okay

[full fossil]

XLA is inherently lazy so you need to jit it

[wintry robin]

I still working on project that doing RL in docking

But well generating scoring function is kind of pain...

Because there aren't simple to do that

Since scoring function is really depend on designer

Man I want to code right now

But it almost 1 AM for me....

Someone said my Current PC right now is e-waste. This sentence is kind of insulting.

For the people who can't afford the high-end PC or midrange PC

[somber dust]

hey

[wintry robin]

Hi

[austere shale]

Yk I just thought, my apartment building has free wifi, and it’s super shit security, but it’s stupid fast. I wonder if I could get in and port forward so I can host servers and stuff

[sharp ferry]

[barren meteor]

hi

[quick gorge]

is there any benefit in windows 11

[hearty spear]

it has more than 10 months of security updates to come

HDR Functionality is improved dramatically

TL;DR: If you're installing now, install Win11.

[sage quiver]

An HDR monitor is what would finally convert me to 11

[hearty spear]

I'm swapping to 11 at home with my current upgrade

[sharp ferry]

404

[hearty spear]

New Platform - New OS

[sage quiver]

I did new platform, same OS with Ryzen 7000

[barren meteor]

tkitck how do you get the pronouns thingy in your handle/name?

[sage quiver]

Still a fresh install tho ofc

[hearty spear]

Ask a mod nicely

[sage quiver]

Was a limited time thing

[barren meteor]

oh ok

[barren meteor]

am i allowed to ping a mod?

[viscid elm]

booo

[waxen chasm]

guys

[hearty spear]

I'm not going to comment about the mod that's currently in the room chatting. >.>

[barren meteor]

lol my bad

[meager shell]

random desktop showcase:

[waxen chasm]

i ordered a keyboard on amazon a few days ago and they still havent taken any money or shipped it out. i know its prolly because of christmas and everything but should i just re order

[sage quiver]

Those complement eachother well!

[hearty spear]

What does your account say about the actual order?

[hearty spear]

I'm not sure which of those two is the nerdier background.

Well done!

[hot tartan]

I don’t even know what the second one is

[waxen chasm]

order received, and when i click track package it says :We will email you when we have an estimated delivery date.

[hearty spear]

That's the D&D Dragon symbol

[sharp ferry]

Could be backordered

[meager shell]

thx.
the LTT is my main monitor, where i store all my everyday stuff.
and my secondary monitor ususally used to see my campaign details on my D&D session...

and for answer: i think D&D is a little more nerdier

[hot tartan]

Ah, LTT is worse imo lol

[sharp ferry]

D&D is nerdier

[hearty spear]

^ Here's my proof that it could be either

[sage quiver]

Different kind of nerdy so difficult to compare

[meager shell]

totally.

[full fossil]

Desktop environment is a bloatware.

[hot tartan]

I say LTT just because it’s more of a niche I would say, and I think parasocial relationships with YouTube entities are weird

[sage quiver]

meh I wouldn't say that's parasocial

[sharp ferry]

You’re telling me Linus isn’t my friend?
Literally unsubscribed

[full fossil]

Linus is a (big) tech YouTuber thus he’s not our friend

[sharp ferry]

Returning my screwdriver

[meager shell]

whaaa ?
i only use Garuda becouse it has more UI to tinker with the system settings...
if i didn't wanted desktop, i would just go for a mabox or a ms dos 😄

[hearty spear]

So, on a D&D / Tech topic:

Tiamat's Tavern (a HUUUUUUGE D&D Meme page on FB) got taken over by Vietnamese seemingly bot accounts a couple months ago, and it seems like they've been stealing posts to feed to a couple of Engagement Farm pages.

It turned into a /huuuuuge/ debacle on the page lately, and now they've locked the entire group, and it's absolutely bonkers

[full fossil]

Big tech of any form is not your friend.

[little trellis]

Hello fellow tech ppl

[full fossil]

UI is a bloatware. Return to tty-only systems.

[hearty spear]

[hearty spear]

Says the guy who got called out by Linus and Luke by name last Friday on WAN. (Or at least just Luke)

[sage quiver]

Hey, Spec wrote that and it caught me off guard

[hot tartan]

Wait Jawa did lol? What did you do

[sage quiver]

Every damn Jawa mention catches me off guard tbh

I've had this username longer than the company has existed smh

[meager shell]

this function didn't exist on my os...

[sharp ferry]

Mid os

[hot tartan]

Oh I get it now

[full fossil]

Return to tty only systems.

[hearty spear]

Jawa provided some Donations to the annual challenge on the LTT Forum

[sage quiver]

omelette only plays games built in basic

[full fossil]

My philosophy is

[meager shell]

... terminal
... on PHONE ?

why ? how ? are you still sane ? 🙃

[wintry robin]

I literally can't even though I want that

[full fossil]

Every Linux system must be CLI only.

Like how God intended it to be.

[sage quiver]

You'll be happy to hear that I deployed a CLI only Linux system the other day

[sharp ferry]

Linux mid return to ms-dos

[full fossil]

I used to run mint and GNOME and I hated it.

So I run tty only and I loved it.

[sage quiver]

but now I'm tempted to install a desktop environment

[wintry robin]

Ubuntu Cinnamon too?

[hearty spear]

Jawa, is Folding on a CPU worth anything?
Or is it only a usefully GPU task?

[plush goblet]

Hello, new member here

[full fossil]

Stuck with it. Molded with it. Probably the only guy on my lab who actively uses vim and tmux

[sage quiver]

It's mostly GPU but I think I heard something about certain work units being CPU only

#folding-and-boinc would know best

[hot tartan]

Trying to bench the 265k?

[hearty spear]

If CPUs are actually useful, I could add the client to a moutnain of boxes at work and just soak some units for a few months 😉

[sage quiver]

:q!

[wintry robin]

What is the main purpose of this channel?

[full fossil]

Yes

[sharp ferry]

You should get this checked seems to be terminal

[hearty spear]

Folding and BOINC are distributed computing systems

[full fossil]

Yes its an Alpine Linux running on an iPhone

Yes I ssh to my jump servers with it

Yes I have tailscale on my iOS whcih allows me to connect to them even with data

[hearty spear]

Distributed Computing uses peoples home PCs to do fucktons of work that would be hard for a small entity to do on their own.

Seti@Home and others used to be on it, too.

[full fossil]

Yes I code with it and yes I use vim with it

[gentle slate]

Can't wait for next year to change my ISP

[sage quiver]

Specifically for medical and scientific research. There's a team that runs events every few months where LTT competes as a team.

[full fossil]

And yes I use tmux

[gentle slate]

Going from 300/300 to 1000/1000

[sage quiver]

screen -r

[wintry robin]

Oh

[hearty spear]

I remember running stuff for SETI@Home back when single-core CPUs were still the only thing

[full fossil]

I can carry the team but I chose not to.

[wintry robin]

I thought that channel is for "scientific calculation" discussion

[sage quiver]

Some of the peeps on there have ridiculous hardware

even rented compute

[hearty spear]

..... Someone bring me my walker, I feel like I'm going to need it.

[full fossil]

I mean I also have a ridiculous hardware

But im a stingy mf

Yes I still use vim even on my phone

[hearty spear]

You can think that, but there's people on the LTT Team that do crazy workloads

[sage quiver]

Pure masochism

Did you build your resume in vim too?

[fossil frost]

i only use the clown emoji, because there is no "bellend" emoji 🙂

[sharp ferry]

“I was born at very vim age”

I gotta take part in a folding or blinc run some day

[fossil frost]

when it took 2-3 days just to get through a single work unit 😄

[full fossil]

I literally code on my fucking phone

[fossil frost]

nobody cares

[wintry robin]

I care

[hearty spear]

Be active on the forum.
There's a pinned post at the top of the page when it's time to start a new challenge

[full fossil]

[full fossil]

Bro loves Vim so much, bro used it on his fucking phone

Im upgrading my notes to obsidian and guess who will be using vim mode

[fossil frost]

its because of emo kids thinking they are pure individuals, coming up with "original" names, even though they are from the same set of names that everyone gives to a project... and the people who keep using this sort of ancient stuff outside of those for who its an absolute requirement... do it to pretend they are better than everyone else, but are infact, far less productive than if they used better tools

[bright marten]

thx for remind me to drink H₂O :)

[sage quiver]

If you get a model M and mount your phone it'll just be like OG personal computers with the tiny screens

[wintry robin]

I thought that they are something, but actually just insane person with no ill intensions

[fossil frost]

luckily, most of them eventually grow up

[hearty spear]

The fact that Japan has a popular beverage that is literally named "Sweat"

is SO FUCKIN WEIRD

[wintry robin]

But not you

[sage quiver]

sanity is overrated

but not to the point of using vim for everything

or using it at all

[wispy marsh]

with open(city_outdoor_experience.db) as world: world.cursor().execute('insert into experiences values (cloudy, warm, humid, expensive)'); world.commit()

[hearty spear]

Which is good, cuz, I'm not sane.
But I'm not insane enough to think that Linux Desktop is the future 😉

[fossil frost]

using vim outside of an absolute need by your employer to do so... is attention seeking

[wispy marsh]

That should be enough revision about Python tonight

[sage quiver]

nano has entered the chat

[fossil frost]

its A future, just not THE future

[fossil frost]

nano ftw for terminal text editing 🙂

[sage quiver]

but but steamOS release soon

[wispy marsh]

I have no idea how to use other text editors on linus

[wintry robin]

VSCode?

[fossil frost]

you press keys on your keyboard... and they show up on the screen...

[wispy marsh]

Sir

[fossil frost]

best editor outside of the terminal

[hearty spear]

Which is absolutely baller

[sage quiver]

Nano is intuitive

[sharp ferry]

Ahem… 3%

[full fossil]

anything to not make half life 3

[gentle slate]

As much as I wish Linux desktop to be the future.

[hearty spear]

Across how many Distros?

[gentle slate]

Windows just works better for me. For the 5 things that don't work on Linux.

[rotund stump]

hi

[wispy marsh]

Mac is linux
Therefore

[sharp ferry]

There’s a rumor that hl3 will be revealed at the game awards tonight
I don’t believe it

[fossil frost]

tbh, its mostly ubuntu

[hearty spear]

Mac is BSD

[fossil frost]

no its not.. macos is BSD

[full fossil]

what time tonight

i forgot about the game awards

[wispy marsh]

I see

[wintry robin]

Well... Don't forget RedHat

[wispy marsh]

Bsd don't follow Linux kernels?

[gentle slate]

Oh I'm thinking of self hosting some shit once I get rid of my isp

[sage quiver]

👀

[wintry robin]

And another distro as well

[bold cliff]

anyone hoping for a HL3 reveal tonight?

[full fossil]

mac user mod

oh hell nah im out of here

[wintry robin]

Not just Debian thing

[fossil frost]

for desktop. its mostly ubuntu, like, more than half... on the server, it could be any random shitmix

[pallid falcon]

You're on.. linux or mac?

[hearty spear]

I first bought Red Hat on CD in the late 90's to mess around with it.

[gentle slate]

A docker system with wireguard and a NAS is fine right?

[sage quiver]

Mac but with an open SSH connection to a Linux machine

[wispy marsh]

Close it

[sage quiver]

k

[sharp ferry]

<t:1734051600:R>

[wintry robin]

Fedora?

[wispy marsh]

No wait

[sage quiver]

the important stuff is in a screen session anyway

[wintry robin]

Or you're just comforting to use Ubuntu and Debian stuff?

[wispy marsh]

Do you mean an open openssh session or a closed openssh session?

[fossil frost]

"screen" is by far one of my favourite utilities, and one of the most underrated utilities in all of computing

[wintry robin]

Somehow people want highest performance as much as possible, so even though that GUI is consuming the resource...

[sage quiver]

Hey, I live for parody

[wispy marsh]

Putty and winscp for mac

[wintry robin]

Pure SSH for me tho

[sage quiver]

Transmit

[hearty spear]

Parody is awesome, and it's hilarious
But that one is still suuuuuuper cringe

[hearty spear]

Putty is the best

[sharp ferry]

What is Linus tech tips but 20 min of cringe per video

[sage quiver]

Is that not why almost 150k of us are here

[wispy marsh]

MacSCP is better than WinSCP imo

[fossil frost]

ssh.exe usurped putty for me, as soon as that appeared on windows, never needed to use putty again

[sage quiver]

https://panic.com/transmit/

[hearty spear]

only need 300 more members to break 150k

[sage quiver]

Just a few more giveaway entries lmao

[wispy marsh]

iCloud though

[fossil frost]

what about it? its the same as any other cloud storage service.. you choose to use it, or you dont...

[sharp ferry]

At least it isn’t like Nintendo switch online

[wintry robin]

Yk different people have different backgrounds and they will using different tools that suit best for them, so you can't judge which one is the best for them based on your experience

[sharp ferry]

Use it or no backups

[hearty spear]

I learned Putty so I could deal with Cisco Hardware.
(Fuck Cisco)

[sage quiver]

k but nintendo switch online comes with a music streaming service

[fossil frost]

what?

[sharp ferry]

With a drip feed of content

[sage quiver]

https://www.theverge.com/2024/11/5/24288201/nintendo-music-streaming-hands-on-impressions

[sharp ferry]

Nso is way better than how it launched

Still not up to par tho

[fossil frost]

didnt know that... i assume it is dogshit based on that headline?

[sage quiver]

Probably

idk I don't have switch online

[hearty spear]

My Letter bombed Wii is still the best console in the world.

[sharp ferry]

No ipad support 1/10

[fossil frost]

the Wii sucked, and was awesome, at the same time

[sage quiver]

Like Instagram?

[hearty spear]

you're thinking Wii U

[fossil frost]

no, that just sucked

[sage quiver]

Wii Sports Resort best video game

[hearty spear]

The Wii was an AWESOME console

[fossil frost]

isnt it considered to be the most played video game ever?

[sharp ferry]

They only have 7 Mario games on their music app

[sage quiver]

1-2 Switch is laaaaaame

[sharp ferry]

What about everybody 1-2 switch

[sage quiver]

Maybe? Idk these days with Minecraft and 🍴

[wintry robin]

Man I want to stream my coding right now...

[hearty spear]

twitch.com is right over that a way points

[sharp ferry]

Third

[fossil frost]

minecraft is the only game i would consider close.. roblox as a platform, maybe, but its not an individual game, its a platform of games

[wintry robin]

Even though I won't go for sleep for this night (night time for me)

[sage quiver]

Share the list you're looking at 👀

[fossil frost]

ahh.. ther is a list... Minecraft at number 1, GTA5 at number 2, Wii Sports at number 3

[sage quiver]

GTA V has printed so much money it's insane

friggin shark cards

[fossil frost]

boo... its a shitty AI generated list based on this wikipedia article on most sold https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_video_games

[sage quiver]

ha!

[sharp ferry]

Wikipedia lol

[fossil frost]

though, i would say that most sold would be roughly equivalent to most played

[hearty spear]

I wouldn't

[wintry robin]

Tetris

[sage quiver]

No fortnite because it's free ig

[wintry robin]

Don't forget that

[sharp ferry]

Most played would be almost impossible to determine

[dusky jacinth]

True.

[fossil frost]

so is PUBG, and thats on there

[hearty spear]

Service Games like WoW, FFXIV and other similar titles tend to generate hundreds, and thousands, of hours per player.

Much higher than normal titles tend to.

[sage quiver]

Hmm, good point

[sharp ferry]

I mean wasn’t it not free at one point

[harsh quartz]

League

[dusky jacinth]

Also... One of the GTAs. I don't remember which one exactly though.

[hearty spear]

huh?
We already said GTA V is #2 on the most purchased game list

[wintry robin]

Why someone tend to play on game that seem to violence in some another perspective?

[hearty spear]

wat?

[dusky jacinth]

Which just says how late I am to this conversation. :D

[fossil frost]

none of those appear on this sales list.. and i know for a fact at least WoW has enough sales to have been somewhere on this list

[sage quiver]

idk ask 205,000,000 people

[wintry robin]

I literally want to do that

[sharp ferry]

Violence causes video games

[sage quiver]

Wait, Wii sports was free too

[hearty spear]

I honestly don't follow what you're asking

[sage quiver]

where tf is fortnite

[sharp ferry]

Free in what sense

[harsh quartz]

Dead

[sharp ferry]

You needed to buy a console with it

[wintry robin]

But what about the Tetris?

[hearty spear]

it was included with the wii

[sharp ferry]

Cold War

[steel marsh]

??

[sage quiver]

True, maybe that's their criterea

[viscid elm]

jawa PLEAS make a helper role

[wintry robin]

Hmmm

[sage quiver]

huh

ah yeah no

[dusky jacinth]

Yeah, and was a pack-in game, so it sold at nearly around as much as many of the first revision Wiis that had been sold in total.

[viscid elm]

look at tc1

[wintry robin]

I don't think that would be related

[hearty spear]

I got so good at Wii Bowling

[harsh quartz]

Iirc the Wii sports wasn’t free, you bought a bundle that included it

[sage quiver]

It came with the Wii in the US

Sports Resort was a separate purchase

[sharp ferry]

But it is

[wintry robin]

But anyway I think will end the conversation

To avoid some drama

[sharp ferry]

Tetris story is pretty interesting

[harsh quartz]

Yeah but it was a bundle thing technically

[sage quiver]

ig

[wintry robin]

Agreed

[harsh quartz]

Whereas Fortnite is 100% free

[fossil frost]

i, like many others, figured out the gyro movement required for a perfect strike every time, which could be made while still sat down, hardly having to raise your arm 😄

[sharp ferry]

100% is a bit generous

[fossil frost]

PUBG is still on the list, which is as free as fortnite

[hearty spear]

I found my throws got way better by holding te controller upside down

[sharp ferry]

I don’t consider games with Microtransactions to be 100% free

[harsh quartz]

No

[harsh quartz]

Was it at first?

[dusky jacinth]

An it can still even be cheesed on Resort too.

[dusky jacinth]

Oh, and then the Sports Resort equivalent on Switch as well.

[hearty spear]

I've got one of those

[dusky jacinth]

'Eeeyyy Balance Board!

[sage quiver]

So many peeps had them sitting in their closets collecting dust

[hearty spear]

much like the NES track and field pad

[dusky jacinth]

Not enough games to use it with, unfortunately.

[sage quiver]

All you needed was a regular controller and some nunchucks

[dusky jacinth]

And their R.O.B.s and Power Gloves too, I bet. Lol.

[sage quiver]

I forget what the fancier controllers did

[sharp ferry]

Looks like pubg only takes sales from before it became ftp

No sales counted after

[sage quiver]

Makes sense

[fossil frost]

Found mine recently. Put some new batteries in it. It caught fire

[sage quiver]

that's not good lmao

[sage quiver]

heh

[hearty spear]

this was my favorite nunchuck repalcement:

[sage quiver]

nooo not a normal shape controller

[hearty spear]

this was the crappier replacement controller:

[sage quiver]

but did you have the silicone case on your wiimote

[dusky jacinth]

Had that version of it actually.

[dusky jacinth]

I did.

[hearty spear]

Yo, Dawg, I heard you liked controllers
So I put a controller on your controller
So you can Analog stick while you Gryro

[sharp ferry]

The Wii was an interesting time for peripherals

[sage quiver]

now do the wii u controller

[hearty spear]

I still don't understand that control pad lol

[sharp ferry]

The Wii U os beats the switch’s by miles

[supple pawn]

[harsh quartz]

Yeah but anything’s better than n64

[sage quiver]

yeah idk man

[supple pawn]

What about the Sega Dreamcast controller?

[hearty spear]

I didn't hate the N64 controller.

Other than the inevitable stick death

[hearty spear]

I've got giant hands, the Dreamcast controller was great

[harsh quartz]

Better than n64

[supple pawn]

Man the Dreamcast was kinda great tbh

[hearty spear]

other than shit game support, and a Dying Sega

[sharp ferry]

Didn’t the Dreamcast controller have Hall effect sensors

[hearty spear]

but: Knights into Dreams and other titles were absolutely bonkers amazing

[hearty spear]

IIRC yes

[sharp ferry]

Truly ahead of its time

[hearty spear]

I've been trying to find Hall Sensor replacement parts for the Wii U Pro Controllers.

But they don't seem to exist >.<

[supple pawn]

I played the hell out of Sonic Adventure 1. 2 wasn't as good.

[hearty spear]

I want the hall sticks in these. I will buy them.

[sharp ferry]

How different are they to switch pro controller joysticks

[hearty spear]

AFAIK they're not interchangable

[sharp ferry]

Tfw

[hearty spear]

even if the controllers look almost the same

[sharp ferry]

I doubt anyone has made Hall effect for Wii U

Not profitable

[hearty spear]

which is too bad, since the controllers are really damned good

[sharp ferry]

Make your own

[supple pawn]

No love for the GameCube controllers?

[sharp ferry]

Only solution

[steel marsh]

i love the gamecube controllers

[sharp ferry]

GameCube controllers are fine but they don’t work for all modern games

[steel marsh]

its why i own the nyxi micro switched with hall effect triggers and sticks game cube controller

[hearty spear]

GC Controllers also require extra hardware to work on PC

Wii U controllers can be connected to a PC natively

[steel marsh]

https://nyxigame.com/products/wireless-gamecube-controller-nyxi-warrior

i got this

[hearty spear]

knock off wavebird?

[steel marsh]

sort of with hall effect sticks, hall effect analogue switches, and microswitched buttons

[hearty spear]

ohhhh shiny

[steel marsh]

they even do variants for the switch

[full fossil]

Is there any historic flight data base

Of prices I can't find anything

[hearty spear]

that'd be really hard since prices change daily / hourly

[full fossil]

I feel like it's so similar though

Wouldn't it be beneficial in some fashion

[hearty spear]

no

since different flights on the same day will have different prices

there would be no way to usefully display anything

[harsh quartz]

Battlemage lookin way better than I thought they would

[full fossil]

Well yea, but the idea would be the cheapest would be displayed but the least variable to change

If I'm just checking if a machine posts do I need to put the cpu fan on? Like can I run it for a few seconds without a cooler?

[vapid zephyr]

To check if it posts, sure

[supple pawn]

I would shut it down as soon as it does, though.

[vapid zephyr]

Duh

[supple pawn]

Hey, I've seen people do stupider things. Best to be clear.

[winged spire]

critical thinking is an earned trait

I just put the cooler on there without screwing it down

That works as well.

No,it will be half life 8

[long briar]

what the balls is this leak.

I swear apple if this is true

[viral pollen]

Whats wrong with it?

Looks like any other cameras.

[long briar]

no it doesn't

The only phone with a horizontal camera bar rn is Pixels

[viral pollen]

Whats the benefit of horizontal?

[long briar]

everyone else is either an oreo, or vertical

For pixels it was that it was ergonomic and the phone could rest flat on the table

supposedly for this it was because they could shoot spatial video or smth

[manic torrent]

Who gives a shit

[long briar]

Nah I just find it hilarious

I'm not one to get caught up in iPhone leaks cause they're usually not accurate like Pixel leaks

[sharp ferry]

Is this the air version that’s was leaked?

[lyric sphinx]

Looks like lot of air to me

[grim belfry]

How much is in there?

[sharp ferry]

Most consumer friendly crypto product

[toxic iris]

16.17522 mBTC

my problem with them is that they wanna do the KYC process but I don't wanna give up my personal details

[fossil frost]

crypto is a ponzi scheme. always has been

[grim belfry]

You can't avoid that

[toxic iris]

I don't see the point in being forced into KYC

[grim belfry]

It's due to AML regulations

[toxic iris]

they have nothing to verify the information against I'd be giving them

[grim belfry]

Can you open a bank account without KYC?

[manic torrent]

... wrong

[grim belfry]

They do...

[toxic iris]

the regulations are when turning crypto into cash which isn't what I wanna do

[toxic iris]

how so?

[grim belfry]

This is an entire industry

Jumio, Stripe, Sumsub, etc etc

[toxic iris]

sure. hence why I'm using crypto

[grim belfry]

And those identity providers check against government records

[grim belfry]

You're using Nicehash.

[manic torrent]

"I don't know shit about fuck, but man fuck the government!"

[toxic iris]

who has no personal identifiably information on me thus far

[grim belfry]

If you wanted to be pseudonymous you shouldn't have used nicehash

[grim belfry]

No bank accounts?
No education?
No employer?

[manic torrent]

... no email

randomly generated username

[toxic iris]

none of that

[grim belfry]

Didn't go to school?

[toxic iris]

an email doesn't have to lead back to an individual

[manic torrent]

No IP and times.....

[manic torrent]

it doesn't HAVE to, but it usually does

[toxic iris]

are you just trolling right now?>

[supple pawn]

You're not going to find a solid answer, too many variables with getting 2nd hand components. Personally (and this is only my opinion, do not take it as fact), I'd expect somewhere between $400-$600.

[grim belfry]

No

[manic torrent]

No, I legit think you don't understand much about privacy

[toxic iris]

the kyc process is for specific purposes. they need ti to allow you to cash out from the crypto to a bank account

none of that is required to transfer crypto to another wallet

[karmic wedge]

Arc B580 is NZD$513 after tax. Not bad. NZD$60 less than the 4060

[grim belfry]

Nicehash is not just a wallet though

They are a financial services provider

[toxic iris]

sure, they are much more but if you don't need these extra feature you wouldn't have to do the KYC process and only use a "limited" set of features

I was able to mine and transfer crypto to another wallet just fine till I've lost access

[grim belfry]

You can. The limit is that you cannot take money out of the platform

[alpine sedge]

Ima just put it at like 500 should be fine

[tired glade]

Oh,not that big difference

[grim belfry]

Didn't go to school?

[toxic iris]

so then why do they need to do the kyc for the purpose of account recovery if they have no information to compare against the KYC process would give htem

[grim belfry]

Don't drive?

[toxic iris]

wtf are you even talking about

[grim belfry]

"The government" knows about you mate...

[toxic iris]

the government has my information, sure. nicehash doesn't though

I've never contradicted that

[storm niche]

I'm not really a big fan of the government

[toxic iris]

my point is that I don't want nicehash, which is a financial provider, to have that

[grim belfry]

Don't use nicehash, problem solved

[manic torrent]

So stop using it

[storm niche]

y'all like fragrance?

[toxic iris]

which identity providers?

[grim belfry]

I listed like three right there

[toxic iris]

I'd love to, after transfering my crypto out

[manic torrent]

Keep your money under a mattress

[storm niche]

💀

[karmic wedge]

Yes but this Arc card is coming close to a 4060 Ti. A NZD$750 card

[toxic iris]

those are payment services

[grim belfry]

No they aren't

[tired glade]

Depends on load

[grim belfry]

You obviously have no clue

Sumsub's whole thing is fraud mitigation

[toxic iris]

I very much doubht that and you are conflating my arguments. doesn't seem like it makes sense arguing with you

[manic torrent]

dun & bradstreet

[supple pawn]

We're talking about loads now?

[grim belfry]

Jumio and Stripe both have very robust solutions

Ironically Sumsub seems to be the worst

[manic torrent]

I used to work for a cash in transit provider ... KYC is a commercial service you simply pay for

[tired glade]

B580 real competition will be 5060 and 8600, so yes

[toxic iris]

an identity provider. at least in the technical sense, is for the purpose of authentication

[grim belfry]

Yeah

[grim belfry]

Not in this context

[tired glade]

And AMD can undercut price,if they will feel it

[toxic iris]

sure is but I don't see why I'm being forced into it if I don't require services which depend on it due to regulations

[grim belfry]

"Identity service provider" is what they are called in Australia, and I doubt it's much different elsewhere

[manic torrent]

nicehash can make whatever limits they like on their service

[grim belfry]

Nicehash can impose whatever policies they like.
They are just reducing their liability, and hoping to not have more regulations imposed on them

[manic torrent]

which is how self regulation works - regulate yourself reasonably so the government doesn't force it on you

[toxic iris]

that's my point though. their requirement to do KYC for the sole purpose of account recovery is egregious

[grim belfry]

Not really

[manic torrent]

Is it?

[toxic iris]

yes, KYC does not help to identify the account holder but the pesons real identity

[manic torrent]

maybe take a minute and think about WHY

[manic torrent]

yes.

[graceful burrow]

What is kyc in this convo

[toxic iris]

if you have not claimed to be any real identity you can't verify it via KYC

[graceful burrow]

[viral pollen]

Hey guys on my mobo i have 8 pin 12V Power connector and 4pin 12v power connector for cpu i only need to do 8 pin right? adding 4 pin is for overclocking?

The machine posts right now as is

[grim belfry]

They could unlock your account, but without KYC you still couldn't use it

[manic torrent]

correct

[viral pollen]

Sweet. I cant find the 4 pin connector anyway lmao. Not sure if im just supposed to buy one or something

[toxic iris]

I know the why. but from a customers perspective there's no valid argument

[grim belfry]

[manic torrent]

uhhhhhh

From your perspective, you are bigmad about people knowing who you are, even though it doesn't matter.

[grim belfry]

Nicehash doesn't care

[manic torrent]

I have some news for you - we live in a society.

[toxic iris]

1. it does matter 2. it shouldn't be required to restore ones account access

[grim belfry]

It is required to use an account in the first place

[toxic iris]

I am mad about being forced into an unnecessary intrusion of my privacy

[graceful burrow]

If you use their service your beholden to their rules so what does it matter

[manic torrent]

you are not.

[graceful burrow]

Use a different service
Sucks
It's worthless to argue on the internet about it

[manic torrent]

you are free not to use the service

Nobody is forcing you to do shit

[graceful burrow]

Especially to people who

1. Don't really care
   And
2. Can't do anything about it

So what's the goal here

[toxic iris]

well, they hold my balance hostage effectively though

[graceful burrow]

Sucks

Sue them

[grim belfry]

Not hostage

[graceful burrow]

If you're so righteous about it take em to court

[toxic iris]

effectively I am since I want get my account access restored nor be able to transfer my balance out

[manic torrent]

no, that's the key, you WANT to do those things. You do not need to.

[graceful burrow]

Guys the post office is asking me my address to send a package wtf

Why would they do that

[viral pollen]

Hey guys how can I easily get thermal paste off the cpu pins? My cuties are falling apart lma0

[graceful burrow]

Isopropyl soak and the softest toothbrush you can find

Wait
Socket pins or cpu pins

[viral pollen]

Umm the gold side

[graceful burrow]

Nevermind

[viral pollen]

It's just on the edges of the pins not in the center

[grim belfry]

I actually don't live in a society, my legal straw man lives in a society however I am a seperate entity to them

[viral pollen]

I'm trying isopropyl 91 but the cue tip is getting damaged lol

[graceful burrow]

Sovereign straw man

[viral pollen]

I think i also just need a can of air

[viral pollen]

This is peak

[toxic iris]

in a hostage situation you don't have to save the hostage either but the alternative is damage (though of various nature, be it material or otherwise)

[graceful burrow]

[summer folio]

In Sweden you have to pay 30% taxx on every money your crypto coin increased in value pretty sure.

Of course they need to know who you are so they can help report your gainz to the IRS.

[graceful burrow]

Wow man you really showed him

[toxic iris]

in the EU you have to pay for money you've made when cashing out. but if you never cash out all you have is something material, nothing financial

same with stocks

[graceful burrow]

What do you want us to do about it

[manic torrent]

no, you don't have something material, you have "unrealised gains"

you have no idea what you are talking about

[grim belfry]

Transferring crypto between wallets triggers a CGT event here

[toxic iris]

right, and afterwards when the crypto market inevitably crashes I've got negative unrealized gains and should get taxees back?

[summer folio]

Haha, why delete top lime

[manic torrent]

yes. unironically yes.

[grim belfry]

That's not how that works

[manic torrent]

I mean, if you realise those losses, yes

[grim belfry]

You'd need other gains to offset

[grim belfry]

It didn't make sense

[fossil frost]

the government always takes, they never give 🙂

[toxic iris]

right, but realizing requires cashing out

[grim belfry]

Depends

[manic torrent]

yes.

[summer folio]

It was funny

[toxic iris]

if you hold a valuable painting which goes up in value I doubt you have to pay taxes only by holding that in your ownership

[manic torrent]

nobody said that you did? (but also sometimes you do)

[grim belfry]

What does that matter

[toxic iris]

my point is not cashing out though

[manic torrent]

... yeah, but that's what you said you wanted to do, and they are holding it hostage.

Sorry when I say cashing out I mean moving the assets you have in nicehash to a personal wallet.

not actual cash

[grim belfry]

Which is cashing out as far as taxes are concerned

[toxic iris]

I didn't if you read carefuly

I've wanted to transfer to another wallet. not exchange

[grim belfry]

So you don't want to withdraw the crypto?

[manic torrent]

yes, that's still 'cashing out'

[grim belfry]

Transferring between wallets is a CGT event, "cashing out"

[manic torrent]

you are withdrawing a security from an entity

[summer folio]

Since crypto is not "regulated" like big Stockholm stock market,
you can only use 70% of your crypto loses to lower your capital gains taxx.

While regular stock loses you can withdraw 100% of the stock loss, on another stock gain 🇸🇪

[vale valley]

hello

[toxic iris]

can you give me a resource which says transfering crypto from one wallet to another is "cashing out" and therefore taxable (in the EU). I'm open to be taught

[grim belfry]

The entire EU doesn't have the same tax law

[manic torrent]

I don't know about the EU - the point is that your contention that a business should only ever do regulation they are FORCED to is hilarious

[toxic iris]

I didn't say that

[grim belfry]

https://www.ato.gov.au/about-ato/commitments-and-reporting/in-detail/privacy-and-information-gathering/how-we-use-data-matching/crypto-assets-data-matching-program-protocol

Oooh cool

The ATO has to be one of the most technically advanced tax offices

So much data matching

[toxic iris]

I've said requiring KYC for the purpose of account recovery is egregious

[manic torrent]

they require KYC to use the service. So saying "for the purpose of account recovery" is meaningless puffery

[toxic iris]

no, they have multiple "tiers" only 2nd one require KYC

[grim belfry]

I believe that has changed

Cool

[toxic iris]

KYC is mandatory for Hashpower buyers on our open marketplace.
It is also mandatory for all users who want to use the exchange services of our sister company, NiceX in

that's what their current documentation says which is the top hit on ddg when I search kyc nicehash

[grim belfry]

https://www.reddit.com/r/NiceHash/comments/1gcbfw6/is_kyc_required_for_everyone_now/#:~:text=Everyone has to KYC now,able to withdrawal without it.

Docs are seldom up to date

[manic torrent]

so you think that account recovery isn't a possible fraud vector?

[summer folio]

Betting sites have no problem letting you insert money & gamble them away without ID.

It's only when you want to withdraw the money they require you to upload a scan of your passport+maybe a payed rent bill with your name.

[toxic iris]

no. I'm saying the KYC is pointles if they have nothing to compare the information to they gain by doing that

(for the purposes of account recovery that is)

[manic torrent]

... That's not what it's for

[toxic iris]

that's what they intend to use it for apparently

[manic torrent]

No

[toxic iris]

they gain knowledge of a real identity but at that point they have not verified that identity owns the account they claim they do though

unless the owner of the account while still authorized added information to the account that could be compared against the real identity that they gained by doing the KYC

[grim belfry]

Their platform. Their rules.

Probably also their money, technically

[wintry robin]

Hmmm

[toxic iris]

KYC -> real identity
account -> virtual identity
hence they aren't necessarily able to associate these

[grim belfry]

Deal with it

[azure slate]

[azure slate]

[grim belfry]

It’s completely standard

[viscid elm]

i cant mine this winter 😭

[manic torrent]

... They don't need to pre-associate them.

They also require KYC when doing an account recovery, it isn't ENTIRELY KYC

[toxic iris]

that's my point though. the fact that they enforce KYC for account recovery whereas they used to only do that for cashing out and otherwise hold the account hostage is egregious

[rare gull]

hi

ok bye

[manic torrent]

cry more

[toxic iris]

damn this community is hostile

[harsh quartz]

What about KYC is bad? I’m missing the context here and this convos been going too long

[wintry robin]

Not all but someone made it

I mean hostile

[manic torrent]

dude is crying because nicehash requires KYC to do anything, and it didn't before, and it's not fair because mah crypto and mah privacy

[harsh quartz]

A crypto platform following the law? Wild

[grim belfry]

Don't worry I'm sure there's some sus shit going on internally

[harsh quartz]

Anyways, I’ve started working for a small ISP and this shits wild

[grim belfry]

WISP or FISP

Or a multi technology mess

[harsh quartz]

Fiber, with a little copper from old circuits

[grim belfry]

How small is small

How many subs

[obsidian oracle]

id say 3.5-4 inch

[harsh quartz]

Idk yet, not spectrum size

[patent violet]

Try running one. Dealing with the legalities and transit providers alone will make you wish you didn't.

[grim belfry]

You Americans seem to have so many regulations but also be super unregulated at the same time

[patent violet]

Fort Bend County wasn't bad for me but it was still a massive effort

[harsh quartz]

The first paperwork I was given was a CPNI document :p

[patent violet]

That's because our regulations are so specific that unless it is targeted it will remain unregulated and in order for it to be targeted it actually has to be specifically defined so back and forth back and forth back and forth back and forth until you actually cover everything

[harsh quartz]

Lobbyists :)

[grim belfry]

Telcos are mostly self regulated here so it's pretty straight forward

Legislated self regulation by industry bodies

[patent violet]

Telcos in most of the world don't hold the burden to deal with scammers or the like

[fossil frost]

theres a guy i used to speak to years ago on the old winamp irc channels on the zirc server... he used to run a small isp, somewhere in the US (cant remember where).. because it was cheaper for him to buy a fibre line, get it all installed, and offer everyone on his street ISDN lines, and have them pay a minimal amount for it.. than it was for everyone in the street to pay for whatever crap tier internet they had at the time... so he ran an ISP for a few streets either side of his house

[patent violet]

Which is really odd

[grim belfry]

Nor should they

[patent violet]

I think they should actually. Considering how many bad actors there are. They should at least make some of an effort if they are notified of an issue. Meanwhile everywhere else they don't even have to make an effort at all unless the law specifically comes in and says do this for us

[harsh quartz]

Remember when American telcos got a bunch of money to build fiber lines and didn’t?

[fossil frost]

BT has entered the chat 🙂

[grim belfry]

BEAD?

[harsh quartz]

Bt and bead?

[grim belfry]

Doesn't pretty much everything installed have to be American made too

[fossil frost]

UK Government: "here is a load of money to make sure all rural areas have a minimum of 10mbit per home" (20 years later) BT: "what?"

[patent violet]

What was really sad is that we don't consider during 2004 to 2007 they were also given a ton of money to do this and they actually made efforts only to find out they got 4% of their goal done with the money and it was used up in less than 6 months each time

[grim belfry]

Good luck with that lmao

[patent violet]

No

[grim belfry]

For BEAD?

[patent violet]

Oh

[grim belfry]

Like good luck in 2024

[patent violet]

There are approved partners for that

It says American made but it's actually american-made or American partners such as Canada which is where a lot of our stuff comes from for that

Canada is one of the largest exporters of network equipment to us

[grim belfry]

Optical line terminals, optical line terminal line cards, optic pluggables and optical network terminals must be mostly made in the U.S.

[patent violet]

They make a solid chunk of change from us

[summer folio]

The Government should just had hired employees directly themselves to do it.

[patent violet]

I think it's part of the Model Challenge?

[manic torrent]

no, that's not the free market, the free market is when the government gives money to already rich people

[patent violet]

They are starting to give to utility companies to do it

Then the utility companies can turn around and rent this to the ISPs and take their money

But the government is doing this as a long term structured loan to municipalities.

[harsh quartz]

“Free” market even though it’s a semi-regulated while also sometimes not regulated at all mess

[patent violet]

So the goal is they take the money from the ISP and then give it back to the government and the utility company basically is the middleman that ensures it gets done

This works out because utility companies are more tightly regulated

Especially when they start to get funding from the government unlike an ISP which is not classified as a utility

[fossil frost]

semi-free regulated subsidised market

[patent violet]

It's becoming obvious that the government doesn't seem to trust the ISPs themselves anymore

Perhaps if they did a little bit with the money they would allow it because oh yeah stuff your pockets and we don't care

But if you're just stuffing your pockets and doing absolutely fuck all well....

Now you're just making everybody look bad

[manic torrent]

the line between 'cheeky' and 'taking the piss'

[fossil frost]

more and more places are edging towards "taking the piss" these days, especially if they are "too big to fail"

[harsh quartz]

Boeing

[obsidian oracle]

uooo thats cool

[harsh quartz]

intel

[fossil frost]

Boeing will worm their way out of this somehow

[patent violet]

CenterPoint energy reported a take from the govt of 15 Million to run fiber across a massive chunk of Houston

And they got bucket trucks everywhere

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, but they need to. Don’t need a monopoly. Also the union has gotten their requests so it’s better in the long run anyways

[patent violet]

The really funny thing about this is that the utility companies will become a monopoly that affects the internet service providers specifically because they now have to deal with the monopoly of the physical transit being owned by utility companies

And you know damn well they're going to start complaining about that

The utility companies already maintain power and all of that to all of these Internet Exchanges and data centers ... The infrastructure to bootstrap is already there so that means low cost for a utility company

They can undercut the transit providers and even local providers own transit costs with their own hardware by a large margin

But that will inevitably hurt the bottom line of the larger providers

Come week 2 of december and BAM!

everything drops in the same week

Cyberpunk 2077 patch 2.2
Helldivers 2 introduces Illuminate Faction
Witcher 4 announced
Elden Ring introduces NightReign

[winged spire]

im too poor for this hobby

[full fossil]

Seems like the server wants me to say hi! See if that works lol

[clear ice]

how much fps will I gain if I replace 3900x with 5700x3d

[wispy marsh]

Your frametime consistency will improve greatly

[smoky badge]

🤷

[clear ice]

what does that mean

[wispy marsh]

Less microstuttering

[winged spire]

The boy in kodak gold 200

[wispy marsh]

However, your raw performance & benchmark scores will decrease

[clear ice]

okok

[wispy marsh]

You will also notice that X3D will also run a lot hotter because of the vcache design

[livid oxide]

Speaking of Nightrein. did you see that they are saying itll be on ps4? in their graphic

[wispy marsh]

I haven't really delved into that yet, i'm planning on buying and finishing the DLC before going into it

[livid oxide]

just saw it on the graphic and was confused by it on ps4 but hey i guess itll be easy to run then?

[wise plover]

guys do you think there's any chance of hl3 being annonuced at the game awards. any chance

[livid oxide]

valve counting to 3

snowballs chance in hell

[wise plover]

I feel like it could maybe but unlikely but possible

[livid oxide]

All im hoping for from this years game awards is MH wilds beta 2 announcement

so far the only Monhun news we got was for MH now aka pokemon go but Monhun

wonder how much they had to pay snoop to not only present an award but to perform a song here at TGA

[hazy parrot]

Dudes on record saying he will feature in a song for 14 lines for $200,000

[livid oxide]

ye

[hazy parrot]

7 figs

I'm scared to guess

[livid oxide]

ez 7 figs if not 8

he performed 2 songs AND presented an award

[frank grail]

hi

[tranquil current]

hi!

[wise plover]

looks like some sort of C.O.C tower thing

[oblique summit]

Any one see the new Witcher trailer

[vapid smelt]

We should all kiss

[oblique summit]

Looks like ciri gonna be the player character in the game

2026 apparently 🤮

Is the release date

[wispy marsh]

Nice

[hot apex]

in games it is but in apps it gotta be CHROME.

[hot apex]

chrome is good tho

[urban willow]

[scarlet mica]

[long briar]

[strong gale]

[vapid smelt]

[long briar]

[strong gale]

[vapid smelt]

[strong gale]

oh wait what

oh shtmy clock is broken

why did i genuinely think its friday

holy fuck

🤦‍♂️

[long briar]

LOL

[vapid smelt]

we need you to pee in this cup to make sure your not on drugs

@strong gale i mean yes it is Friday you dont have work or school tomorrow since it will be Saturday

[rare otter]

sup

also im using minecraft bedrock shaders without rtx

[vapid smelt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLAuzWNrK0w

[split swift]

That's normal

[rare otter]

bedrock

[split swift]

Also normal

[rare otter]

oh wait are you in the yss discord server?

no your not

[vapid smelt]

play the real version of minecraft plz

[rare otter]

my ps3 is in the livingroom

i only play bedrock for the servers and realismcraft

[wise plover]

astrobot won game of the year
has anyone played it cause i dont get how i could have won

[split swift]

Bedrock for the servers 😭😭

Bug rock sucks

[rare otter]

tbh maybe its cause i modified the game files

but like. i havent experianced any major game breaking bugs

[bitter harbor]

I still have issues with that game on my desktop. And pink glitch still rears its ugly head

[split swift]

The only good things about bedrock is the wither being an actual boss and a couple other things like potions in cauldrons, much better peformance, etc

[split swift]

Java much better but java runs like ass

[vapid smelt]

mhmmm suuuure, next you will say you only watch adult videos for the plot

[bitter harbor]

If I had the stability of Java and the performance and controller compatibility of bedrock, Minecraft would be perfect

[split swift]

Java and stable don't go in the same sentence. If Java is loading and God forbid you click your mouse or keyboard, that's shit gonna turn ur screen white and crash

[vapid smelt]

[bitter harbor]

By stable I mean graphical issues and not having seemingly random deaths from glitches

[split swift]

Lol

In bugrock, iv randomly died by running and hitting nothing, it said I fell to my death

[vapid smelt]

it was Herobrine

[rare otter]

i use the realism craft addon which fixed alot of the bugs in the game and adds a shit tone of new features so

[split swift]

https://tenor.com/view/anime-cry-sad-gif-14080503

[rare otter]

i never really run into shit like that

[split swift]

Its not bad, the fov is wonky tho lol

[rare otter]

just my personal preference

i like seeing things around me

[split swift]

Yeah

[rare otter]

i had to replace the matterial bin files and replace the water textures to get this working

[bitter harbor]

On my nvidia based laptop, pink glitch all the way and on my amd desktop, audio cuts out on launch. Bedrock genuinely sucks

[split swift]

What's ur pc specs, and why isn't ur game full screened 😭

[vapid smelt]

As a OG chad i have only played java

[rare otter]

ryzen 5 3600 cpu
gtx 960 (4gb)
and 16 gigs of ddr4

[split swift]

Oh, ouch, i see why you made it run without rtx lmao

[bitter harbor]

Personally, I hate the fact that controller compatibility isn’t a thing with Java and that setting up steam input for Java is also a pita

[split swift]

Isn't the 960 the gpu thag nvidia fucked over on vram and made 3.5gigs fast but the last .5 hella slow?

[rare otter]

tbh despite the v ram limits

the 960 isnt too bad

performance wise. if you can get 1 for a cheap price

go for it

[vapid smelt]

https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16814883006 arc b580 would be a great upgrade from the 960

[rare otter]

ngl i dug my pc out of a dumpster

so i got my pc for pretty much free

[tidal lark]

Nah man what was the game awards that was terrible 😭

[split swift]

You should grab a b580

[split swift]

@rare otter

[rare otter]

if i get the money

[calm swan]

the ad awards

[vapid smelt]

looks like the b580 is out of stock till next year jan 1st

[ionic abyss]

https://www.amazon.com/SIHOO-Chair-Office/dp/B07GNDDNMW any good as a chair

[bitter harbor]

Let me guess, still no Silksong.

[heady nebula]

does the $5/mo FP plan have 1440p video or is it just 1080p?

[vapid smelt]

1080

[heady nebula]

ughhhh

[vapid smelt]

as a cool OG i only pay $3 for 1080p

[austere shale]

4gb of vram tho. I’m fairly confident any game released this years loading screen uses more than that

[rare otter]

tbh i would most likely find a way around it

[ionic abyss]

humm

would it be worth it to go for a slightly less durable chair with a 6 point shiatsu massage function?

[austere shale]

Going from a card that had 8gb to a card that has 24gb I’ll never go back, just haven’t had to even worry about it

[vapid smelt]

i went from a 2gb>6gb>8gb card

[austere shale]

Molly says goodnight

[vapid smelt]

i hope she shits in your bed

[terse igloo]

love the headphones

[alpine valve]

IS THAT A T SERIES THINKPAD???????

[ruby prawn]

Hi everyone! Love your headphones Molly! What are you listening to?

[winged spire]

This is kinda random but is any one else going to CES?

Industry attendee 😎

[vapid smelt]

why did you go back 5 years?

[clear ice]

How much performance increases will I see

[vapid smelt]

6

[clear ice]

If I switch to 5700x3d from 3900x

[terse igloo]

yes
