I know someone’s dad from our school builds computers, and he thinks that he can put a 3070 in it and he also said if he can’t, he’ll build him a new computer, which is definitely what’s gonna happen

If someone gave you a chance to buy any 5090 you wanted but in return you could never use discord again, would you do it

[shut lichen]

Oh god, a Nvidia tree must've fallen off a truck without being noticed. The secret is now out

GPUs grow on trees

If they gave me a 5090 for free I would vow to never use discord again

[glad trout]

Hmm. Do I do it. Do I add a Arc B580 to the gpu compute unit of hell.

[buoyant glade]

dem so how much would u need to snow board

[split swift]

i dont get paid but I do receive free merch, their premium tier on their apps and beta features and I get to learn behind the scenes stuff

[crude vortex]

not yet,let em optimize it more w software updates

[glad trout]

busted as in underperforming?

that must be me with my space heater😎

my cpu is busted idk it crashes but when I go to bios and put it to 20 watts it stays stable

so I bassicaly have a intel atom whit 6 cores

Hi

[modern pier]

Waiting for a $439 B580 in Australia…

They’re all $479 right now

MSRP plsssss

[modern pier]

Give it a few months and I’ll be there

My growth spurt is 5 years late

I would seriously buy a B590 that’s $279 USD and slightly faster than the B580

[round star]

THANKS!!!

[uneven stirrup]

I don't know... I don't wanna buy it... it seems like an amazing gpu but it's always the price

[shut lichen]

Because the people that actually need one can afford it and will pay the price

The people that just really want one can also afford it and will pay the price.

If people weren't paying it, it wouldn't be that price

Fr I heard that the S25U supports 7 years of Major android updates isn't it?

[noble gazelle]

yep

[safe token]

🤔

[noble gazelle]

S21 ends at OneUI 7

[waxen marten]

Damn that's more than any mobile phone in the market can do i guess isn't it

[noble gazelle]

not sure

[waxen marten]

Fr

[dense flax]

i think yeah. I know that Google Pixel 8 and 9 series get 7 years of Updates

[waxen marten]

I still use my Pixel 6 for 4 years and I'm planning to go for an upgrade next year...

Any suggestions?

[noble gazelle]

Samsung

[dense flax]

Pixel 8a is good Budget Option. I myself use a Pixel 8

[waxen marten]

Like an S25+ or smth?

[waxen marten]

Daamn really

[noble gazelle]

S25+ or S25 Ultra .... both good

[waxen marten]

Fr though

[noble gazelle]

yes

[waxen marten]

I also thought about going for an Apple but I feel like It's not gonna worth buying it

Cuz as a lifetime android user, I feel like switching ecosystems isn't a good idea for now isn't it

😪

[noble gazelle]

no .... bad idea .... stay away from apple

[past fjord]

it has more vram than i have ram wtf?? 😭

speaking of androids, as an ipad kid growing up

android phones feel so dystopian for me 😭

Ive had the S21 Ultra for 4 years no issues

[past fjord]

has the performance dropped since u got it?

or like any issues

[noble gazelle]

nope

[waxen marten]

I mean it's possible cuz growing up with a specific ecosystem and then switching to another is hectic isn't it

[echo sluice]

[austere shale]

It was so bad

I was talking with somebody in here about it how we think most Microcenters would have like 5-7 5090s a piece and we were saying that is super low. And some dude chimes in like “it’s a $2000 gpu wake up” basically saying because it’s expensive nobody’s gonna buy it. Then it sold out in about .5 seconds on launch

[iron bramble]

seems China got the entire world's supply of 5090s

this is what happens when u only make cards for a month before launch

AIBs didn't get GPUs till December

[novel notch]

*week

[austere shale]

I love lying on health questionnaires so I get free health insurance from my employer

[covert cradle]

They'd have to buy them from international scalpers so I doubt that. They did definitely get the entire world supply of 5090D, because that's for China only

[iron bramble]

yeah im saying it seems like theres way more 5090D than 5090s

[crude vortex]

no paid sick leave for you

[austere shale]

I already don’t get paid sick leave so💀

[viscid elm]

it just makes it way harder for me if i get sick as i am now first day after over half a year

[austere shale]

Also kinda fuck the place I work. They sold out to an investment firm and it’s going down the shitter so fast

The field employees didn’t even get a Christmas bonus which is wild

[last stone]

land of the free im assuming?

[austere shale]

Yup, I mean we get short term disability which is nice but not individual paid sick days

[last stone]

I get 12 weeks per year if needed 😄

[austere shale]

Yea that’s definitely where short term disability would come in

[last stone]

Yea but even if like tomorrow I have a flu and take 2 days off I still get paid

[austere shale]

That would be nice, but to be fair I don’t get sick, ever. I cannot tell you the last time I was actually sick. It’s so annoying. Because I’d love a day off but nope. My immune system is just absolutely juiced from working in the sewers for so many years

[prisma burrow]

hi

[last stone]

Fair enough! haha

[echo sluice]

a discount/sales channel would be peak

[crude vortex]

@prisma burrow hi

[harsh quartz]

Nobody should buy it ≠ nobody will buy it unfortunately

[austere shale]

I want one. It’s probably the last actual powerful gpu to come out for a while. I have a feeling after this they’re gonna cut back on the hardware and move more towards framegen AI garbage, while telling us it’s what we want

[harsh quartz]

I mean, that’s basically what this gen was. Technically it’s more raw performance but iirc the efficiency stayed the same, so it wasn’t actually an improvement in tech over the 4090, just more juice available to it,

Also the price is just fuckin stupid

[austere shale]

“Look at how many frames you can generate!!!! Do you want 900000 frames per second? AND 144p AI upscaled to 50k?!?! It’ll look like complete shit but we’ll gaslight you into thinking it’s good, then use the power of access journalism to effectively bribe all of the tech YouTubers you like into making you love our product so you buy it!!! Consume consume consume consume”

[umbral jackal]

I mean, it has more memory, at a much faster speed too
Better video encoder and decoder too
But yes, it scales surprisingly poorly, given how many CUDA cores it has over the 4090

[iron bramble]

4080 super super

i guess ill find out soon what DLSS and frame gen is like

coming from pascal so this will be my first experience with both

[umbral jackal]

DLSS is a god send
It's the only reason I can comfortably use a 4K 144Hz monitor with my card
Much much worse framerate without it

[iron bramble]

what card?

[umbral jackal]

3090 Ti

AAA Games make it suffer

[iron bramble]

my friend has a 4070 ti super and she said everything runs perfectly at 4k except alan wake 2

not sure what DLSS level though

[iron bramble]

crazy how the top end card from 2022 is already struggling

[austere shale]

FAKE FRAMES, you are seeing the same exact frame more than once. Stop saying this slop is good. It’s making hardware worse

[umbral jackal]

Well I like to play at higher settings
Not a fan of low-res textures and whatnot
But yeah, 4K is still hard to drive on modern games

[umbral jackal]

My homie, the 3090 Ti does not support frame gen

It's just upscaling

[iron bramble]

thats frame gen not dlss

also frame gen has been on tvs for years its called smooth motion

[austere shale]

It is SLOP, nvidia is feeding the chickens, they throw their slop on the ground, and we the chickens put our head down like “yes master thank you for the slop” wake up people

[lapis solstice]

https://youtu.be/KEtb0punTHk

[winged spire]

Powerless to his greed.

[umbral jackal]

I'm not using frame generation, so no
I'm just using the upscaling, because rendering at native 4K makes my GPU scream in pain

[austere shale]

Even upscaling is slop. Anything but actual computing power grunt is sloppy cope

[iron bramble]

ok get a 7900xtx then

[austere shale]

I already have a 4090

[iron bramble]

if u wanna play at 4k native with lower settings no ones stopping u

[mint yacht]

kek

Your pfp is fitting

[umbral jackal]

The upscaling isn't slop, what?
It's not some fake frame nonsense or anything
It works extremely well, with no latency or anything
Allows me to play FPS games at 144 FPS instead of 60-70, while still looking good
I'll take that any day

[austere shale]

Ok, so by that definition that Samsung phone that when you zoomed in on the moon, put fake texture on the moon, that isn’t slop? Because that’s basically what upscaling is

[umbral jackal]

That's not at all what that is?
It's not overlaying a PNG, it's literally just upscaling what is actually there
It renders at 1440p, not 4K, while still looking much better than 1440p
But you do you, I guess

Are you going to tell me that any anti aliasing is slop now?

[austere shale]

I understand it’s beneficial, I really do. But it’s the start of a slippery slope, and if we as the consumer don’t get it under control we’re going to be fucked

[austere shale]

Also anti aliasing is starting to cover up sloppy developers. https://youtu.be/lJu_DgCHfx4?si=WK07y24zp-LceNL6

[umbral jackal]

I agree with that when it comes to the frame gen stuff
That I hate
But the upscaling breathes new life into aging hardware, and allows people to run better monitors

[harsh quartz]

Oh wow they finally put more memory on a 2000$ card. Woopdiedoo. and the encoder/decoder I’m sure is nice for some people but for gamers?

[umbral jackal]

If you're looking strictly at gaming, then sure, it's 25-30% more performance for 25-30% more power
For people like me, however, who make games for a living, and do a lot of modeling/texture work, having 32GB is really nice, and the extra encoding power is fantastic for recording/streaming things

[austere shale]

To be fair, I’ve seen that the 5090 is about 20%ish better than the 4090 overall, and it basically has a 20% higher msrp. So I can’t really be that mad at their pricing logic

[harsh quartz]

I can’t be mad just cause I’m not buying it anyways, but I can still call it ridiculous

[umbral jackal]

The price is ridiculous, but objectively speaking, the card itself is good

[harsh quartz]

Oh yeah, and the 32gb of vram is incredible nice, in a vacuum. But it’s not in a vacuum unfortunately, and going forward at this rate, it’s only going to get worse

[iron bramble]

5080 was deliberately made worse to funnel people to the 5090 and then they get shocked when the 5090 sells out

[austere shale]

I think given both the price of the 4090 and the other 50 series options they have, a $2000 price tag for their flagship isn’t bad

Also not everyone should be able to get a 5090, everybody can’t afford a Ferrari, that’s just the way the world works

[iron bramble]

people who can afford 5090s and want them can't buy them

[austere shale]

Well that’s a different conversation

[maiden flare]

Don't forget the PSUs of the future

Who would have thought that a new product doesnt have flawless software….

No piece of software is perfect

[austere shale]

Right? Idk who buys a brand new piece of hardware and updates the drivers right away either. Assuming it’s working out of the box I’d give it a couple weeks at least like damn

Yeah lmfao

i looked at the spec and they kinda exactly the same

maybe a little extra 20hz from the xg

[fair otter]

Kinda exactly is a contradiction

[next jetty]

Yeah that's basically it

Just get the cheaper one

[shadow maple]

this guy offer me pg259qn for 250$ but it have a lil scratch on the screen

is there any pic term channel so i can send how it look like so you can judge if it's remarkable

[harsh quartz]

Except it’s always taught as good practice to update drivers asap

[fair otter]

i got sumn like a g273pf e2 for like Fuckin lIke Uhhhhhh 160 or sumn

[fair otter]

Yo if its not Broke dont fix it

[next jetty]

There are image permissions in this channel

[harsh quartz]

Except that’s not how drivers work

[shadow maple]

i don't think i can since i don't have any role

im gonna send it to you in dms

[next jetty]

You should be able to

Everyone has the perms for it as far as I'm aware

[shadow maple]

i sent in tech chat

[fair otter]

To me iT be Like Dat.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YX29Hk08lAY can someone explain the tv vs mrwhosetheboss world's biggest iphone section? I did not get it. on one side they have a giant iphone taller than man, on the other side they have a 40 inch ish tv, what was the comparison?

[mortal kraken]

Blaming it on consumers for updating their software and not vendor? What else lol

[echo sluice]

what is blud doing on the left

that discord layout is diabolical

[austere shale]

The second I fill this fucker with nitrogen it gets all foggy 🙃

[obsidian oracle]

try not filling it with nitrogen next time

[austere shale]

I have to 🙃 I think it was the glass cleaner I used on the lens

[obsidian oracle]

rip

[vapid smelt]

Fill it with acid then

[normal python]

The comparison is that there's a comparison, and because of that comparison the comparison is a comparison even though the comparison is a comparison.

[mint abyss]

understood, thanks!

[visual wagon]

Man I'm watching the latest video, I had that exact model of Sony SXRD TV in college in 2021 (got it for free on Craigslist), my old roommate still has it in his living room, original projector bulb and everything

And then the new TV y'all put in is almost the same model of Bravia I have now, just 55 instead of 65

Coolest video I've seen on YouTube this year so far haha

[pulsar violet]

What should I do I’m getting spam called by robocalls every hour and they won’t stop, I’m also on the DNCL

[scarlet owl]

Who did you piss off?

[opal thunder]

Report the numbers.

Also you piss off an ex or smth?

[pulsar violet]

Numbers every time it’s different

[scarlet owl]

You’re being chewbacca’d

[pulsar violet]

I got called by a Russian one this time

[mint abyss]

you should be able to report them from your call history also just turn on dnd and never pick up the call. those robot calls first wants to find out if your phone number is active and a human picks it up

[opal thunder]

It's that prank call app lmao.

[pulsar violet]

Never been in a relationship lol

[opal thunder]

One of your friends is messing with you probs.

[scarlet owl]

This is where he says he has no friends 😭

[pulsar violet]

Yup I messed up there and researched after cause they spoofed one of the numbers from my small town

[civic frigate]

Anyone know how to tuck these away?

[obsidian oracle]

[jolly musk]

you dont

[willow bramble]

Do you want them available when you need them?

You can tuck the long strap in another latch on the shoulder strap to stop it flapping about

Otherwise remove them completely

[small cosmos]

guys did anyone get the new discord update?

[opal thunder]

The outage that just happened was because of that?

[small cosmos]

YEah

Ahh

[opal thunder]

Are you in the experiment?

[small cosmos]

🤷‍♂️ looks like it

[sterile sundial]

What update?

[small cosmos]

[sterile sundial]

What the what?

[opal thunder]

yeah

You can extend the channels list horizontally.

Drag the edge.

[sterile sundial]

This is normal ahh discord client? Not modded?

[small cosmos]

What the fuck

[opal thunder]

Yes.

[sterile sundial]

[small cosmos]

Yeah

This looks ugly imo lets go back to the old one

[sterile sundial]

Fair, I'm on phone so I can't see anything

I'll see it tomorrow when I'm on my PC

[small cosmos]

Eugh it looks ugly

[heavy monolith]

Choosing between a 7800xt, 7900GRE, or 7900xt? I'm not too concerned with 4K gameplay

[fossil frost]

not the GRE, its been discontinued for a reason

[heavy monolith]

I'm trying to find a 7900xt for between $600 and $700. How often do they restock cards?

[fossil frost]

depends where you live, and depends on the retailer, and depends on how much AMD give a shit about the current gen when its about to be previous gen

[full fossil]

PS2 had a Netflix disc. wonder what the experience was like

[fossil frost]

shit... it was shit...

[full fossil]

was it?

I used the wii one back then

[fossil frost]

you know how modern disc drives have the noisy initial spinup?

and how old disc drives always sounded like a turbo jet, all the time

both of those sounds at the same time, while being unresponsive, and running over shit internet connections

[full fossil]

Price of a 3090FE here in albania

[winged spire]

Luma field is peak

I love looking at their scans

Really cool that LTT has one

[fossil frost]

cnc kitchen did this... 2-3 years ago

he cut one open with a mill too, to physically show the insides

[winged spire]

Cool

The prusa CHT isn’t the same geometry as the bondtech CHT

[viscid elm]

i should mod my p1s to use one of em

gotta crank those print speeds

[winged spire]

Just wait like 2 years for bambu to drop support and buy a good printer 🌚

[viscid elm]

what do you mean?

[fossil frost]

it makes a noticable difference, but not MASSIVE

[viscid elm]

kinda everyone says bambu print quality is better then the rest

[winged spire]

This is false

[small cosmos]

It is I've tried it

At least some of the best yeah, maybe the best of the best I don't know

[viscid elm]

so your evidence?

[winged spire]

I’ve been printing for 11 years and have 9 printers

[viscid elm]

sick i have had 3

well i had 2 and now 1 to not bother with getting another printer

[winged spire]

Bambu makes decent machines that won’t last as long as say, a prusa

[fossil frost]

bambu printers are largely the same quality prints, as similar devices that use the same marlin or klipper (depending on the printer) firmware and similar quality build components.

[winged spire]

That’s how you’re getting it so cheap

2027 is the cutoff for software (and security(?) updates I belive

[viscid elm]

well tbf it prints 2x the speed most prusa printers do so ofc

[winged spire]

It’s not

[fossil frost]

thats marlin vs klipper, you can switch any prusia to klipper and have it print just as fast

[viscid elm]

sick i can still print with it and still upload stuff to my printer with ethernet

[winged spire]

My unmodded mk4s does an 8 minute benchy

Same with every currently sold prusa lmao

[viscid elm]

well the quality SUFFERS

[winged spire]

Suffers.. how

[fossil frost]

not that i have noticed

[winged spire]

Also you don’t need klipper to print fast

Klipper isn’t magic lol

The mini, core one and mk4 all have input shaping already

[viscid elm]

i modded my old printer with klipper and yeah it was fast but if i wanted fast enough speeds it looked like ass

[fossil frost]

you dont NEED it, but it helps that its designed for that from the start

[winged spire]

That’s a skill issue

[viscid elm]

well not if i tuned it to perfection, at the point i was it was hardware

[winged spire]

🌚

[fossil frost]

https://tenor.com/view/measuring-tape-measure-how-long-ausmessen-size-matters-gif-23452185

[viscid elm]

the ender 3 v2 aint the best

[fossil frost]

why dont you both just get the measuring tape out, it will be quicker 🙂

[winged spire]

Remember like 18 months ago when bambu tried making the EOL for the X1c 2025?

They immediately rolled it back due to public backlash

4 years of support for a 1000$ printer lol

[viscid elm]

well worst case its still a printer you can use ethernet with

[winged spire]

Worst case it’s a printer full of proprietary parts that are no longer sold while also being cut out of the cloud ecosystem

[viscid elm]

how many parts can you not get on aliexpress?

[fossil frost]

do people actually use the cloud connected stuff from bambu? i always just assumed that everyone glued a pi-zero to the side of their printer

[winged spire]

Most people

[viscid elm]

well uploading prints from the phone is fun some times

[fossil frost]

none, you can rebuild the entire printer, from almost any manufacturer from ebay and/or aliexpress

[viscid elm]

yeah

[fossil frost]

really? was unaware that the community has gone that way, feels like a bad move

[winged spire]

Bambu has attracted a FUCK TON of people that don’t know the first thing about 3d printing

[viscid elm]

most if not almost all parts there are copies and good copies of

[clear roost]

Today's new video - retrofitting a backlit TV is really good. Made me think that it would be great anti theft protection for your home media centre setup

[fossil frost]

that also feels like a bad move

[winged spire]

I agree

But to get back to the point

Bambu doesn’t just magically have the best print quality

I can get a stock ender 3 to match the quality

Bambu offers cheap and easy in exchange for propriety DJI garbage

[viscid elm]

and take 3 times longer

[winged spire]

Well no shit it’s a 50$ printer lol

[fossil frost]

what mm/s do the bambu's do these days?

[viscid elm]

which you had to spend hours tuning

[fossil frost]

by default, in the slicer

[winged spire]

Nope

[viscid elm]

yes

[winged spire]

Ok bud

I can buy 20 ender 3s for the cost of an X1c and outpace it

lol

[winged spire]

There’s like 4 default speeds

[viscid elm]

so do not buy a x1c?

[fossil frost]

about 20 minutes to level the bed and make sure everything was tight and square, mine runs at 100mm/s for higher quality, and 120-130mm/s on stuff where its mostly straight lines

[slate tulip]

@tardy terrace

[winged spire]

I wouldn’t ever buy a bambu dw

[tardy terrace]

[winged spire]

I’m upgrading my prusa mk4S to the core one soon 😎

[viscid elm]

well you kinda cant really argue against something if you have not tried it

[winged spire]

I have tried it

[slate tulip]

You pinged me last time, so figured I'd pop in and say hi this time 😛

[winged spire]

Idk why you’re trying to argue about my experience I’ve been printing for nearly as long as reprap has existed

[viscid elm]

thats the main issue for me, i HATED having to tune the bed every time

[fossil frost]

i tuned the bed once...

[viscid elm]

what printer and why did you stop?

[winged spire]

The x1c

I stopped because bambu is a shit company with printers not designed for people that actually know how to 3d print

[viscid elm]

some times it lasts for ages other times it did not and i swear every other print i had to tune it

[viscid elm]

thats not a reason, was it too easy or too hard or was there a software issue?

[winged spire]

Do you want me to screencap the many reasons I’ve stated during this conversation

[fossil frost]

because the older ones didnt have locktite on the wheels that you used to adjust it... now they have locktite (i added it myself to mine, because mine is one of the ones that didnt have it)... it needs re-tuning because those wheels rattle loose, if they cant rattle, the bed stays where you leave it

[viscid elm]

so you had a broken part?

[winged spire]

I feel like I’ve thoroughly explained my reasons for not using bambu

[winged spire]

No

[viscid elm]

no it just feels like general hate and just general words of proprietary stuff nothing personal

[winged spire]

Ok 👍🏻

Maybe it went over your head

[viscid elm]

so why did you return or sell your printer?

what issue did it have

[slate tulip]

what is a bambu?

[winged spire]

A 3d printing company founded by Ex-DJI employees

[viscid elm]

ok

[slate tulip]

what is DJI?

[viscid elm]

drone

[tardy terrace]

I drool for a bambu printer

[winged spire]

Chinese drones

[tardy terrace]

a1 mini yes pls

[viscid elm]

i LOVE mine

[slate tulip]

Ah, okay. Thanks. DJI is the company, or the drone?

[tardy terrace]

dji is company

[viscid elm]

best part is just having it on and then beaing able to remotly upload a print to it while at work or at school

[winged spire]

DJI is a drone company known for making decent products that are incredibly proprietary, unrepairable products

[viscid elm]

well not the best part but a part i love

[slate tulip]

gotcha, thanks :)

[winged spire]

(Common feature on the majority of the premium printers on the market)

And can be added to ALL of them with a 15$ pi and 10 mouse clicks

[viscid elm]

sick i just wanted a printer that works with zero tinkering

it was fun tinkering but just one button to calibrate most of the printer and another to print is just so fun and easy

[steel marsh]

do not buy a inkjet from the early 2000's like LGR then LTT found out.

he was the guy that LTT referenced in the printer video remember

[winged spire]

or do im not your dad

low toxicity to aquatic animals so im chillin

[slate tulip]

Or are you?!

[fossil frost]

im old enough to be most people in here's dad, so, i could be

[slate tulip]

I'm okay with that. Speaking of being my dad - if you want to give me an early inheritance so I can buy a house, I'd appreciate it

[fossil frost]

my parents generation are likely the last generation to be able to give any sort of inheritance (for most of the population), and my generation is likely to be the last generation where most of the generation are able to fully own their own house

[slate tulip]

Yeah, it's becoming a sad world out there

[fossil frost]

wealth has been moved to much into the pockets of a select few for their to be enough of it left over for anyone else to have

[wispy marsh]

Funny you mention that

I don't own my house even though i'm paying the 200k mortgage

[slate tulip]

@wispy marsh ooh, you are in DSI, hi :)

[slate tulip]

only 200k? Lucky!

[wispy marsh]

I don't talk there

[slate tulip]

the most run down, in need of work, fixer uppers around here are like, $350k+

[fossil frost]

im about half way to having my mortgage paid off, and spent about 10 years on negative 0.5% interest 🙂

[wispy marsh]

200k that leases me the 700sqf apartment for 64 years

[slate tulip]

that's sad, it's a great server

[wispy marsh]

If i buy a car, it's 150k to lease a car for 10 years

You don't own it but you'll be happy about it

[fossil frost]

if i buy a car, i own the car.. because i would neverl lease it, i would buy via finance, but, at the end of it, there is no baloon payment or having to hand the car back, its mine when i finish paying in 5 years after the initial purchase

[wispy marsh]

No, you do not own cars in this country

[fossil frost]

my wifes car is fully owned. my car has a year left before its paid

[wispy marsh]

Your only option is a paper that says for 10 years you can drive it without much modifications

[fossil frost]

i can modify my car as much as i want, as long as it passes an MOT test 🙂 (roadworthyness test)

[wispy marsh]

That paper costs up to 95k and the price of the car is minimally 30k++

[strong kettle]

singapore? lol

[fossil frost]

what you cant do, is have an exhaust that shoots flames... because that makes your car into a firearm... and you get arrested for it (colin furze first project on youtube got him arrested because of this very thing)

Yeah DHL is better anyway for international shipping

[pliant karma]

lol DHL has yet to chuck my package vs the other carriers that have delivered

that’s not to say DHL is good

Just better than USPS for international

@long briar Now you’re catching on.

@keen gorge reminds me of LGR’s wood grain pc.

[keen gorge]

Lol yeah I can see it

[long briar]

that's actually so sad lmao

I mean great for ur economy but there's some things that'll just never be as cheap as it was

[keen gorge]

I've got all the parts available, just waiting for the new 12/16 core amd chips now

[winged spire]

It’s definitely not great for our economy

But sure

Tariffs only work when you’re protecting existing jobs in America

[long briar]

It's not great for the individual - but it does mean gdp goes up because you're forced to purchase local

or relatively local

[winged spire]

Or just.. not purchase

[long briar]

People are gonna buy regardless

[winged spire]

Price up = purchase less

It’s not a magic money pit

[long briar]

magic money pit for who?

[winged spire]

The purchasers?

[long briar]

on paper it works out for the country - not the individual

[winged spire]

Price goes up demand goes down

Not to mention the tariffs on raw goods which directly leads to fewer domestically produced final goods

[long briar]

so on a microeconomical level yes price goes up demand goes down and individual spending will likely decrease (unless necessity drives demand)

on a macroeconimics level the country'd GDP will increase because money is not leaving the country - which should boost the USD as it makes the USD more favourable to invest in

[long briar]

tariffs on raw/intermediary materials is insane to me though

[polar fern]

It’s not great for our economy.

Are you kidding me? The money is gonna be vacuumed up by the billionaire class.

[long briar]

you solve that through a proper taxing system not by giving your people cheaper consumables

[grim belfry]

Proper taxation system? The US? You’re hilarious

Can Nvidia make cpu that just works?

[sleek pond]

No, but I hear they have a few GPUs that work

[neon notch]

oh it's worse. Talking to a friend about it who worked or the post office: *Mailed packages from China must undergo formal customs entry under new tariffs scheduled to be implemented on Tuesday, according to a notice from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection posted online on Monday.

Chinese imports that are eligible for temporary duty exemptions will also be subject to U.S. tariffs of 10%, the notice posted in the Federal Register said*

Why is this important? The Merchandise Processing Fee has an ad valorem rate of 0.3464%. The MPF for formal entries has a processing fee of $31.67; and the maximum fee is $614.35.

So like a $10 aliexpress order can blow past $42 now.

[modern pier]

Love it when they don’t tell you what you did

I haven’t even used this account in weeks

I think I know what it was

I made a reference to a medieval method of execution in my old game from 2019

[civic fox]

roblox be banning the wrong people

[magic lake]

I made it to 14m before the anti nvidia bias made me turn it off

[wraith ether]

#hi

[hollow pulsar]

Does Roblox still require 65,000 ports to host a server?

NVM. Looks like they narrowed it down to 16,000 ports. Still the sloppiest and most arrogant server setup I’ve ever seen.

[sharp cradle]

they allow you to host severs?

[magic lake]

somebody doesn't know how ports work

and it isn't roblox

[spring socket]

Anti Nvidia bias?

[hollow pulsar]

I dunno. I can’t be bothered to touch anything that needs such a wide range of ports.

[hollow pulsar]

Explain

[magic lake]

the given port range is not a range of ports in use

its a range of USABLE ports

the docmentation is poorly worded I give youu

but you only need one One port in that range as long as the client connects on that port

[magic lake]

the majority of the video is basically tin foil hat conspiracy non-sense

[neon mesa]

not like roblox need the prts anyway

just use upnp

[magic lake]

upnp is not for accual server hosting

roblox is p2p anyway there is no server

you are basicly hosting a glorified matching host

I think they switched to some privit vpn abomination thing awhile ago

either way just because it specifies ports 1000 - 30000 does not mean you are opening 29999 ports

[hollow pulsar]

Extremely poorly worded. It seems they are talking about outbound ports? Bit I’ll admit I’m not fresh on TCP/UDP available port negotiation. I haven’t had to worry about that for… ever.

[magic lake]

udp do upd things

best avoid that steamiung pile of mentally challanaged garbage anyway

[hollow pulsar]

That’s what Roblox wants. UDP

[magic lake]

never has there been a game so aweful that its meer mention gives me ptsd

untill roblucks

[hollow pulsar]

Lol. So we are on the same page

[magic lake]

that game is for the short buss helmet wearing crowd

id word it differently as thats insulting to the short bus riding helment wearers

but I don't have the words

[neon mesa]

you are not supposed to host your own server anyway

probably why theres no proper implementation

[tardy terrace]

There are so many other methods of conveying stupidity other than dragging mental handicaps into it.

Do better.

[urban thistle]

I’m going to try to get 5.1 working tomorrow. It keeps on going to PCM audio

just trying to get surroundsound to work on Windows 11

if you guys have any tips, let me know!!

[tardy terrace]

change windows audio device settings

[urban thistle]

If you mean in properties and checking DTS and Dolby digital I have done so when I click test, I hear the audio and it is in the correct mode, but then it switches back

[tardy terrace]

whatabout in your audio chipset software

[urban thistle]

I tried but the new real tech audio doesn’t include it so I rolled back to a version that a YouTube video said will work, but I never got the app to show up. Probably did something wrong on that. Tho

The old drivers are installed,

Just it didn’t install the app

[magic lake]

you need to enable matrix encoding if you aren't using a true 5.1 input

realtek calls it vitrual surround sound

[urban thistle]

I got a msi B790 tomahawk because it has an optical out

But it hasn’t stayed in surround sound

[tardy terrace]

you need to install the actual latest software

[magic lake]

also that

[tardy terrace]

you can't just listen to a yt vid that tells you to use an older version

[urban thistle]

In the test menu it goes into surround sound and works

[tardy terrace]

thats how things break

[magic lake]

https://imgur.com/a/GZFBwov

[urban thistle]

https://youtu.be/Jcd7tmyR4CA?si=eNukcd7OiunUaVrK

[magic lake]

if you are using spdif then you need matrix encoding to get 5.1

[urban thistle]

How would I enable that?

[magic lake]

dont use hacked up drivers use the board vendor or the realtek direct ones

[urban thistle]

Because the modern real tech console is so bland there’s like no control over anything

[urban thistle]

I will install the ones I had previously tomorrow

[magic lake]

Then open the cp and enable the option shown in that image I linked

[urban thistle]

I still don’t understand if there’s a way to configure something. I don’t know if I was just missing it or not.

[magic lake]

you shouldn't need anything else

core driver is probly missing the dd licensing and needed apos

I dont know what format your receiver expects

toslink is honestly quiet dated

it doesn't do anything particularly well regardless of what certain people will tell you

[urban thistle]

This is all over tosslink ^

[magic lake]

pcm requires matrix encoding iirc

[urban thistle]

Where can I find that or enable that I didn’t see it in any controlled panel or app

[tardy terrace]

I think what you need is an external dac capable of actual surround out
https://www.amazon.com/Creative-External-Multi-Channel-Discrete-Optical-out/dp/B0953LL5R6

[magic lake]

you wont unitll you install the oem drivers

The motherboard is advertised to do 5.1

[urban thistle]

No like with the OEM drivers

[tardy terrace]

and look where thats getting you

are you sure you don't have to do analog 7.1

[urban thistle]

Yeah, but look at that price tag

[tardy terrace]

i.e. the 3.5mm jacks

[magic lake]

it can do it with either matrix encoding over toslink or analog input

[tardy terrace]

i would just do analog

[magic lake]

but methinks its time to buy a hdmi capable reciver lol

so much easier lol

[tardy terrace]

this is why i just fuck w/ 2.1

[urban thistle]

The current audio solution is technically better than analog

[magic lake]

it also techically doesn't work

[tardy terrace]

but is it perceivably better

because rn you can't hear shit

[urban thistle]

Dolby digital and DTS doesn’t seem to be activating when it needs to but PCM IS working

[magic lake]

tos link does not have the bandwith to support 5.1 if you can't get matrix encoding working you wont get 5.1

[urban thistle]

Is there a place I need to configure something to get it to stay?

[magic lake]

trashlink is like 3.8Mbit or something lol

[urban thistle]

That’s 96

[tardy terrace]

kb/s

[urban thistle]

An audio is coming through fine just it wasn’t in Dolby, digital or DTS surround

[tardy terrace]

or ksamples

[magic lake]

I don't even know what tos link standard that reciv is

[tardy terrace]

isnt dolby/dts mainly used in movies

[urban thistle]

That just says hz

[tardy terrace]

ok so 96khz sampling

which if we look-

wow ok i was way off

[urban thistle]

gHz?

it says gHz

[magic lake]

that receiver is extremely old and not old like classic old I mean old like old and crappy old lol

[tardy terrace]

yes because we're totally running near-hundred ghz hardware for audio

[urban thistle]

Wait, hold up yeah, you’re right lol

[magic lake]

are you playing 5.1 content lol

[urban thistle]

Yes

[tardy terrace]

dude either get a new receiver or just use analog

[magic lake]

I mean dd should WORK but I know its extremely finnicky

and if you installed some hacky driver you might have perma-broke the apo stack

I would ddu the audio drivers and start over with only the board vendor drivers

getting the DD processing to work correctly is a challange when the motherboard vendor doesn't do it right

[tardy terrace]

pee
cee
em

[magic lake]

https://www.amazon.com/Pyle-7-1-Channel-Bluetooth-Stereo-Amplifier/dp/B08LX2LHXV

cheap but has hdmi and some wattage

connect any of your hdmis to it set that hdmi device as your audio out

done

dont even need to run a display though it

if you got money to burn get a yamaha or sony

[urban thistle]

Yeah, I have a $25

I’ll do some more troubleshooting tomorrow

I probably will find a way to get it working

[magic lake]

3.5 to rca

Hi! Does anyone have any knowledge about SteamOS?

I was trying to install it on my laptop and it was working fine till it reboot after I clicked on "Reimage Steam Deck".
Now I can only see black screen on my laptop

[south skiff]

is a i5 13600kf worth boosting

[covert cradle]

Does your laptop have amdgpu?

[viscid elm]

SteamOS only works on the steam deck you need something like bazzite yo do what you want to do.

[stray orchid]

are there any ways to cool down a laptop that actually work? ive seen mixed opinions about cooling pads, and not much else available besides them

[torpid crest]

I guess amd internal and nvidia rtx 2060

cause it has amd ryzen 7 3000 something

[viscid elm]

Speed up the fan speed and use ptm for thermal paste

[viscid elm]

Just follow what I said

[torpid crest]

oh! I see Bazzite also supports Fortnite too

I mean Epic Game Launcher

[civic fox]

linux as a whole supports that launcher, fortnite it does not

with either lutris or heroic

[torpid crest]

wait what? We cannot play fortnite on Bazzite or SteamOS?

[civic fox]

nope

[viscid elm]

Only windows no other OS supports fortnite

Well the anti cheat

[civic fox]

like most online shooters these days

[viscid elm]

But you need it yo start fortnite

[stray orchid]

anything besides repasting? max fans don’t change much

[viscid elm]

Temps?

What temps do you get

[torpid crest]

I don't see if it's not possible to make anti cheat for linux

[stray orchid]

~80*c sustained

[civic fox]

epic games refuses to enable support

[torpid crest]

I am download Bazzite and let's see if it's working on my laptop

[viscid elm]

Do not take it up with me, take it up with the developers

[hollow pulsar]

Linux is a challenging OS for game devs.

[viscid elm]

Why are you trying to go lower?

[civic fox]

tbf fortnite runs like ass for me since its cpu bound LOL

[torpid crest]

Yeah

[viscid elm]

Most laptops can boost until they hit 100c

[torpid crest]

Does these linux based OS helps with that FPS drops on laptops caused by those large number of Windows processes?

[civic fox]

not entirely no, theres a chance that it could but the benefit would not be substantial

[stray orchid]

i actually didnt know that, it seemed super hot to me, thanks

[viscid elm]

Unless you are willing to put in some effort linux is not going to make every game run two times faster, but most games it tends to only be a small boost.

[civic fox]

DX12 and nvidia are not great atm, on linux last i tried it

[viscid elm]

If surface temprature like the keyboard is too hot for you then try pointing a fan at it to cool it down.

[viscid elm]

And he has a nvidia dgpu

[stray orchid]

i put an coldpack with a towel around it on the keyboard when it gets too hot to the touch

[civic fox]

right, iirc it can be up to a 20% performance loss

[torpid crest]

I didn't expect it run faster, I just need the same performance but without those frequent FPS drops that happens for just few seconds after every 15-30 mins. My laptop is clean and doesn't have dust inside.

[civic fox]

its not a guarantee that linux will solve that

[viscid elm]

Did you replace the thermal paste?

How much ram do you have?

[torpid crest]

Should I select "Yes" for Steam Gaming mode while downloading Bazzite?

[torpid crest]

16GB

[torpid crest]

Yes, I applied Deepcool thermal paste that came with my Desktop CPU Fan

[magic lake]

steamos isn't gonna fix your laptop being under-engineered pile

[torpid crest]

I choose KDE desktop environment cause I think that would be friendly for non-developer like me. Not sure if it's best choice.

[magic lake]

if its dropping fps that relaibly its throttling because its overheating / power limits

[hollow pulsar]

Use what works best for you. Check out what’s available and explore.

[magic lake]

first thing I want todo when i become president of the world is ban the manufacture of gaming laptops thinner then 1.2in

[viscid elm]

Yea steam gaming mode looks to be what ya want

[torpid crest]

It only have 4 core cpu but have a decent 6GB Nvidia RTX 2060. I only play at medium setting and it doesn't over heat but I still got that FPS drops

[magic lake]

that doesn't mean its not a over heating pos

let me guess acer ?

[torpid crest]

ASUS

[viscid elm]

Did you clean the old paste and did you applied the new thermal paste over the entire die or just put some in the middle and hope for the best?

[civic fox]

i have a 4 core and yet it bottlenecks like hell sometimes yeeesh

[viscid elm]

Temps?

[magic lake]

I mean its a mobile quad core with a mobile 2060 linux isn't gonna fix it

its probly going to perform worse out of the box

nvidia on linux can be. .... challanging

[viscid elm]

Well even on windows it should still work OK

[torpid crest]

I did clean old paste and I didn't applied over the entire die but it definitely covers the entire die cause I have applied plently in the middle

[torpid crest]

around 80

[civic fox]

on windows it should work as it should

[viscid elm]

Well that is kinda the point of bazzite

[magic lake]

good luck

you are gonna need it

[viscid elm]

Knew it, the entire die generates heat so every single millimeter has to be coverd

[torpid crest]

Let's hope for the best

[magic lake]

its fedora based O god help him lol

[torpid crest]

oh!

[magic lake]

lquid metal is what I would use

[viscid elm]

God no

[magic lake]

with proper prep

[viscid elm]

Never ever suggest anyone use LM

[magic lake]

why

[viscid elm]

Liquid metal

The substance known to kill the most amount of gaming laptops other then spills and drops

[magic lake]

only if you are an idiot with it

[viscid elm]

What??

[magic lake]

its why god created kapton tape and conformal coating

[viscid elm]

It still spills

You can't kapton tape the entire laptop

[magic lake]

yea if you spludge the entire tube on there and dont rtfm

you dont need you

you apply conformal coating to the package area if needed

then you apply kapton tape to contain it

[viscid elm]

No it spills from the manufacturer and have to tell the clients shits ducked

[magic lake]

you fold the tape in half and leave the one half of it folded up (sticky side up

this creates a barrier incase you decide to throw your laptop in a paint shaker

[hollow pulsar]

Speaking of Linux, I haven’t checked on Zorin OS in a while

[magic lake]

I 3d print gaskets for them tho

easier no fuss

but really all you need todo is rtfm when applying it

[viscid elm]

There is also the issue of it tensing to spill on that erea and then you have insane hot spots

[magic lake]

people treat it like thermal paste it isn't thermal paste

[viscid elm]

But most people have also never applied it

[magic lake]

if you use cheap lm maby but properly fomulated stuff like from TM will stay put

its the ONLY way to make the thermals better when the cooling is frankly inadequate

[viscid elm]

There is also the case we have PTM at a cheap price now

[magic lake]

you need every degree you can get out of that pos single heatpipe

[viscid elm]

Wich provides closer to LM performance without the risk of sending the laptop straight to a e-waste bin

[magic lake]

I mean its a quad core with a 2060

its already half way there

the mobile 2060s where so aweful

you take a chip that needs power limit then not give it power limit and also install it inside a oven

[viscid elm]

Should be better then even super high tier igpus

[magic lake]

thats not a very high limbo bar

[viscid elm]

Anyways he is probably not going to fix his issue by using Linux

[magic lake]

you know what would fix his issue?

this segue to our sponsor!

[viscid elm]

Actually covering the die

I dono use some Holywell ptm7950 from ltt store

[magic lake]

and a hammer

hammer the cooler extra flat that will fix it

can't over heat if it doesn't turn on

https://tenor.com/view/brain-brain-meme-big-brain-big-brain-meme-big-brain-time-gif-2441110471562975014

[civic fox]

would it be easier to take my mobo out when replacing the cpu or just put it in without taking it out

[hollow pulsar]

Game in the summer with the laptop over the AC vent.

[magic lake]

or move to the south pole

[torpid crest]

and I paid $1055 USD here in India

😭

[magic lake]

tho being a asus it would still find a way to overheat in -230 degrees

hes from india lol

so the ambient temps are what?

5.74 billion degrees
