[dire bone]

the 5070 is a better card and almost half the price then the rx9070xt rn

😭

[opal belfry]

It's not better

AMD is better for rasterized perf, and you also get FSR4 which is pretty neat

[dire bone]

myb your right, price per dollar difference is insane tho 😭

[opal belfry]

You should only consider Nvidia nowadays for theirCUDA ecosystem ONLY if you do workloads like data science, ml training, 3d modelling but then you'd be wiser to go for their workstation edition blackwell line-up with more vram.

Ergo, AMD is better, man

[dire bone]

I want to get AMD due to better raster and drivers on linux, but the price 😭

[opal belfry]

What's your budget?

It's wild to me that a section of a building that was built so recently is already getting torn down to make room for new stuff. Starbase is ever evolving.

Bruh the whole side of the building just fell over lmao

[frail cipher]

anyways

[dire bone]

I mean buying stuff is less about cost and more about value for me at this point

I am trying to save up money to survive the unknown

We live in unpredictable times 🧐

[frail cipher]

does anyone know some dnd server or group that i could be part of??
im still kinda new, only 2 or 3 campaigns in the bag (all not finished)(1 i was the DM)

[dire bone]

What CPU do you use btw, I upgraded from the Ryzen 1700 to the Ryzen 9700X and it 2-3x'd my fps with the 1080Ti

[civic fox]

i have a i7-12700KF

[dire bone]

F is the one without dedicated graphics?

[civic fox]

yep

i dont need them though, it cost me like 180 bucks

[dire bone]

I disabled the integrated graphics on the 9700X, it causes more problems for me xD

Due to linux

[opal belfry]

that card probably has 2 more years in it before it's obsolete and can't run modern games

[civic fox]

K means its unlocked, F means no IGPU.

[opal belfry]

you have plenty of time to consider your upgrade options

[civic fox]

it has about a year probably, it has lost driver support. and is lacking modern hardware

[opal belfry]

but now is a good year to get amd imo

[opal belfry]

it was a classic

it has served well 🫡

[civic fox]

that much is true, mine isnt going anywhere but the box it came in.

[opal belfry]

one of nvidia's "mistakes"

they usually make bad gpu options on purpose

[dire bone]

10 years for a card is crazy

Value king 👑

[civic fox]

8 years

[silver sun]

470

[dire bone]

@opal belfry said it is good for 2 more years 🫡

[civic fox]

It won't be as it's moved to legacy support. And doesn't have support for modern games and ue5

[dire bone]

what modern games?

[civic fox]

usually games past 2021 or 2020

it has basic DX12 support, and no modern hardware shaders.

[opal belfry]

With any luck you'll run games like Alan Wake 2 with 22 frames on low settings.

2 more years before it's completely obsolete and can't run new games.

[split swift]

with what gpu

[opal belfry]

Check image

[dire bone]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sELG30sHDFI

[civic fox]

thats not playable

[dire bone]

34 medium 1080p

This isn't an fps

[opal belfry]

Pretty neat

[dire bone]

You can play 1080 low with 50fps

[opal belfry]

With FSR you can get 60 full frames

[dire bone]

^ seems very usable

[civic fox]

i would say thats also not playable

[dire bone]

damn, that is crazy!

[opal belfry]

??

[dire bone]

Anyways I wouldn't want to play alan wake 2, I would want to play ark 2

I hope ark 2 comes out in the next 10 years

[opal belfry]

50 frames is playable, anything below 25 is un-

I remember playing Prototype on my school PC. ~20 frames per second. Golden days.

[bold brook]

am i missing something, or is there a reason why anyone would be buying an rtx 5070, which is substantially more expensive (At least on the B&H website) that only has 12GB of VRAM over the 5060Ti which is not only cheaper but has 16GB of VRAM?

[long valley]

completely unrelated to everything but what is the 4th month of the year

[civic fox]

april like always

[ocean lynx]

when did this start ??

[civic fox]

April is the 4th month, it was created when the calendar was made. idk i know its the 4th month because i was born in april

[ocean lynx]

it’s only been 2000 years

Hm weird

Do y'all have never wanted to turn off the ethernet link/activity LED?

[zealous cedar]

We need rgb ethernet link lights

[abstract elbow]

Yes

[zealous cedar]

Party in the network closet!

[abstract elbow]

That'd be fun.

I am slowly starting to like desktops more. (Over laptops)

Long time laptop gamer and with my first desktop build I went all out

Well not all out rly

[zealous cedar]

Nice!

[abstract elbow]

GPU, CPU, AIO, Monitor and shit sure

Had to go for B650e-e over X870, and be quiet PSU

Cost savings

[zealous cedar]

Have to do what you have to do
I was able to go x870 but only because I just needed a cpu mobo upgrade

Ultra wide oled gang over here 👈

[abstract elbow]

I mean it was expensive for me cause I needed to get everything.

Sure if I had the monitor and peripherals already, could've done much more

[zealous cedar]

No doubt but atleast you can upgrade a couple times to offset some of that cost instead of getting a dead platform right out of the bat

Or as long as am5 is around

[abstract elbow]

Mobos don't sell great in the used market right

[zealous cedar]

Depends on the market, it can vary locally to online platforms

I’ve not had issues but that’s just me

[abstract elbow]

I mean if it works I guess I don't rly need the ROG X870E Extreme

[zealous cedar]

No not really
I don’t use half the features of my mobo

Honestly I could have went cheaper mobo better cpu

[abstract elbow]

Only reason mostly is aesthetics

Those expensive boards do look pristine

I mean first build sure was scary

Now next time I am more prepared

I lowk fucked up the AIO radiator tho

So the screws that came with the AIO, I used them.
But turns out, the screws are too long. They started screwing into the radiator.

No such mistake next time tho

Thankfully it runs fine. No leaks

I bet even an experienced PC builder could've done this mistake if this never happened to them

[analog light]

The shit I'm going too looks like government housing for a marketplace deal

Am I cooked?

[abstract elbow]

This is so stupid that can even happen.
This should never be an issue.

anyone here got one of the intel arc b580 cards (or any of the arc cards, really) ?

[winged spire]

The much more annoying one is the hard drive activity light

[bold brook]

curious as to how things have been with driver updates lately, considering biting the bullet and grabbing this b580 from newegg as i really need a GPU atm, and it's 309 whereas a 5060ti is 489 lol

[winged spire]

My nzxt case has this super bright flashing constantly around the power button

Very annoying

[bold brook]

you can disable that

i have an nzxt case as well, depending on which one you have it might be a little hidden away like mine was but you just have to disconnect that cable

[winged spire]

I was planning to just cut the cable lol

My PC is up on my desk now so it’s less of an issue

Is the ltt team interested in making a video on whether high temperatures can burn out a computer?

Because my computer was placed on the sofa for several hours, the high temperature caused my computer shell to deform

[alpine gale]

Laptop? Also, video suggestions go here: https://linustechtips.com/topic/1322697-thread-for-linus-tech-tips-video-suggestions/

I never had this problem with my T540p before.

[alpine gale]

This doesn't answer my question. Anywho, I ask because computers need ventilation. Block the vents and they overheat. Sometimes enough to cause plastic to deform, or worse, catch fire.

[muted swift]

The deformed area is not where the air outlet is, so I think it is overheating caused by other reasons.

[alpine gale]

The only reason it would have deformed there is because that's where all the heat tried to escape...

[muted swift]

Maybe one of the wires is overloaded and heating up.

[latent delta]

Hello people

Next to the wire is the screen axis, which is also very hot.

As a kid, my globus and atlases usually wrote Greelandia (Dania). Thats how I know lol

But I feel like only the Russian ones i'd ever seen wrote it, Literally all English maps just remember Greenland for some reason idk

Even like Google Maps n shit. Huh. Real question is unless they start writing in (USA) what difference would it actually make for everybody 😛

[rancid nymph]

globussy

watch me nae nae

[edgy sun]

Thats plural nominative of globus in russian

[rancid nymph]

everybody here, yes

[edgy sun]

Actually one s. Doesn't work exactly lmfao

Maybe english you can write two s in a row and pronounce just the same as one 😛

Or it's there as a remnant of sharp s ß which usually when that character is missing, it's replaced with double s.

[rancid nymph]

no speako russky

[edgy sun]

Bro i just got account statement from kraken in an email but i know without opening probably 0. Dang

[winter sluice]

Ain't no way bruh , all other games run just fine it's only PUBG with the issue

[craggy garden]

It worked for me with Dying Light

[winter sluice]

I also have dying light and it works amazing with what I'm on currently

I'm running 3dmark nomad rn to see if the system has any problem

[edgy sun]

Uninstall* window did you mean

Then get (only workable) alternative OS linux, probably ubuntu for most people. Then learn how much more painful gaming on Linux is

Nowadays I guess a lot of windows stuff at least runs on dxvk. Like gta san andreas playable if you can tolerate the weird shadows and occasional glitchy lighting lol

I still don't have any remote idea what it could be causing it but looks exactly like AO enabled... only by accident and games that old didnt have it usually... idk. Uninstall window then maybe install window again tbh

[edgy sun]

Bro maybe its just pubg. That game has a lot thats wrong with it. Consider leaving pc as is and it's not your fault.

[winter sluice]

Probably

[winter sluice]

I ain't doing all that for one damn game

[edgy sun]

If you mean 60 and 30 fps exactly, try disabling vsync and not running windowed mode idk

[edgy sun]

Yeah bro its a joke. Dont ever reinstall windows at least until you try reinstall/update driver. Then update windows if you havent in a while

Tbh its more like looking for right combo of both window and gpu driver versions together. Rule of thumb if you have old windows, get drivers around just as old. Or dont get version driver preferably before your win version released. How tf could they have tested it? On a delorean or som sht

But all games running fine except for pubg sounds sus

[winter sluice]

Ik , but I'm being fr

[edgy sun]

Unless you didnt test enough games yet. I had driver that was too new for 1603 or some sht and all source games would like crash on alt tab. But thats because all direct x it turned out

Opengl games wouldnt even run

I think only fullscreen. They would run windowed or some sht. Moral of the story was just fullscreen basically was broken. Not games

Having your new robot vacuum roll out of its own box and say hi to your family by name is so freaking cute. Nice first impression, @maticrobots!

This is a cool robot vacuum

There’s a surprising amount of innovation in robot vacuums, there were 2 companies at CES showing ones with robot arms

One had little feet to get over ledges and stuff

[quartz arch]

I know this sounds like a stupid question but where can I find a good desk i have e atx case and 2 monitors as well as a full size keyboard

[winged spire]

Either make your own or market place

[molten drift]

Anyone have experience on selling on eBay using auctions?

[alpine gale]

Cheap desks? IKEA. (Or equivalent.) Good desks? Marketplace / Craigslist, or contact a local carpenter.

[quartz arch]

I look for Ikea I found a really good one it's a standing desk but it cost $800

[alpine gale]

I sold an old phone on eBay once. Easy experience. Wouldn't do it again because it wasn't worth my time.

[winged spire]

its crazy how expensive standing desks are

theyre incredibly simple and cheap to make

[quartz arch]

How

[molten drift]

Oof. I'm trying to find a way to sell my PS5 copy of thps 3+4 when it arrives and the factory sealed copy of thp8 for PS2 I have from.buying the skateboard.

[fossil frost]

That's my main problem with selling on eBay. The money is usually worth less than the time/hassle required to sell the item

[winged spire]

standing desk

[molten drift]

It feels so weird asking only 20$ for a sealed factory copy of a near 20 year old game.

Part of me is debating on sending it to get graded

[alpine gale]

Could sell it locally, to a used game shop, to a friend, or yeah: one of the online marketplace platforms.

[molten drift]

Sadly the only used game stores we have now that 3 game stops closed are just pawn shops that reek of mildew. Looks like eBay /marketplace are my best bets.

[polar fern]

IKEA has the table tops & the legs. Several professional content creators that I know of will only use the IKEA table tops for desks..

[cerulean canopy]

you will need some kind of linear rail

so it doesent wobble

[winged spire]

you just bolt a square tube to the inside of the legs and a smaller one telescoping inside it

[robust kestrel]

wazzaaa

[cerulean canopy]

thats what commericial units do
you couldnt do it bc tolerances

[winged spire]

you can infact do it

[cerulean canopy]

you would need weldless tubes as well

[winged spire]

so almost all of them

theyre extruded

[cerulean canopy]

steel?
nah

[winged spire]

you definitely do not need steel tubing

idk why youre trying to argue

ive literally done it--it works

standing desks arent magic

[eager notch]

Was looking at high speed cameras

Hello everyone,
French developer trying to take care of his workstation, may have found a new hobby, being hardware, who knows. 🙂

[vapid smelt]

Everyone bully the French man

[supple pawn]

Just get you some 1 inch steel square tubing from the Home Depot

[winged spire]

pretty much what I did

[supple pawn]

Why u yell at me?

[winged spire]

lol

[supple pawn]

Can out some unistrut on it for cable management

Or use some 80/20

[gloomy pewter]

is the i7-1195g7 good for light gaming?

[rotund schooner]

hi

[hybrid echo]

Plenty

[covert cradle]

as long as you're okay with sub-60 fps at 1080p low settings in most 3D light games. It's good in a vacuum against only the other ultralight CPUs of its era, but quite shit if you consider everything else that exists so it really depends on how cheap you can get it.

[rapid vault]

wtf jst happened to my mc: The game crashed: exception ticking world

[gloomy pewter]

is it fair for 250 usd?

[covert cradle]

That seems like a fair price, but I haven't done market reseach in that price range so I can't confidently say yes or no.

[winged spire]

just got an unskippable 11 minute add bruh

what the fuck

[hybrid echo]

Skill issue

[winged spire]

I thought I clicked on the wrong video because its literally just a 10 minute video about some extraction shooter

but no, its an ad

[hybrid echo]

[glass zenith]

I need to make very important financial decision

100 or 200?

[covert cradle]

maybe yt is doing another fuck with extension users experiment? you seem to have sponsorblock at least

[winged spire]

youtube doenst care about sponsor block

it doesnt affect them at all

[covert cradle]

I'm aware, but it's still an extension modifying the site. I don't think they really target any specific extension when they do those experiments since then it has plausible deniability that they're doing it intentionally (and tbh I could see an unintentional bug being the culprit too).

[covert cradle]

speaking of yt, they really need to bring back the dense layout. 3-4 videos per row is so bad

[crude veldt]

What channel can I share my hatred for intel stock cooler

[crude veldt]

Preferably with images

[crude veldt]

YESSSS OLD IS SO BAD

[covert cradle]

it should at least be an option, but maybe that's too complicated /s (I assume they're doing it to maximize scrolling or some other stupid ass metric)

[crude veldt]

Yeah, maybe I should add a extension to add the old layout

Warning: I suck

[honest cobalt]

hello everyone i got a question regarding my gpu power consumption

so i got an Asus dual RTX 3070 stock, using the default profile in asus gpu tweak, and i recently fount out that my peak power consumption got above the 250w "normal" limit. today i caught it for the first time hitting 286.6W when i was playing fs25 on ultra.

and the power percent peaked at 127% according to msi afterburner

which is the first time im seeing it peak this high

i dont run msi afterburner at all times when i game but i dont recall at all seeing it go so up so is it normal?

the peak temp was 81 celsius, and i got it set up in gpu tweak to hit max 83 before thottling itself (which it never hits)

[polar fern]

is it used or new?

[winged spire]

Starbase is now an incorporated city lol

whos moving to starbase city

[hybrid echo]

[civic fox]

the 3070 has a base tdp of 220w, i have seen my asus 3070 go as high as 270w before, my 3070 also never goes above 62C while under full load at these wattages either.

[winged spire]

its really interesting to see what spaceX has done for the local economy

brownsville and south padre island are like fuckass shitty dead beach town

brownsville was literally the set for sicario 2

now theres a fuck ton of tourism and major new investment happening

that whole thing with cards against humanity's land being used by spaceX is only so high profile because SpaceX has made the land values go up so much

[hybrid echo]

Space x sounds corny

[winged spire]

Cards against humanity bought that land for like 2100$ and now its worth upwards of like 60k

[winged spire]

stands for space exploration technologies or whatever

[hybrid echo]

Sounds like another website

[honest cobalt]

new

ive been using it for like almost 4 years now

[honest cobalt]

yeah, the temps are a bit higher on mine because my case fans are pretty loud if they pass 50% power so i keeo them pretty low

il keep an eye on it definetly, hope everything is fine

[languid marsh]

hi

what is the best brown switch keyboard available in india

[drowsy wren]

Stupid stuff

Cherry MX browns

[covert cradle]

browns are nice. The best of cherry imo, but I haven't experienced other manufactuer's tactile silents besides razer orange which the kb started bugging after a few months of use

[merry gull]

membrane is just fine

[covert cradle]

It's fine, but a consistent nice tactile feel is so much better still

[hybrid echo]

Keyboards are keyboards

[covert cradle]

for some of us, interacting with a keyboard is a massive chunk of our day. It's not at all surprising that some want it to be as comfy for them as possible

[vapid wharf]

Brown is nice with the correct chassis

Even G710 w/ lubed browns sound good

[long briar]

Cherry brown are barely tactile

I don't hate them, but at that point I prefer either a super big round bump or a super smooth linear

[covert cradle]

Hey @vapid wharf, super random drunk sat night question but does grace have SME (and not just streaming SME like applie silicon)?

[vapid wharf]

Lemme check the specs

It does come with SVE and typical arm optims

It does but they have NVPL which optimizes it for the exact chip, which means I need to rewire my brain to use them, again.

[long briar]

Rubberdomes really are hit or miss and that's the issue

[covert cradle]

I assumed SVE would be available ye, seems kinda a given but SME is the odd one. It's kinda sad that apple only lets you do streaming SVE inside of the SME units. I want proper SVE :*(

[vapid wharf]

Tbh with Grace you'll be using their CUDA anyway to run it

[long briar]

How do you know if a rubberdome keyboard is good without testing it?

[covert cradle]

that's fair

[vapid wharf]

cuTensor is a bitch.

And I got paid to figure out NVPL lol

[covert cradle]

that's something I wouldn't know about having only experienced razer oranges. I'd love to try more kbs but gettign a job comes first before I start spending on something like that.

[alpine gale]

I mean, to be fair, I ask this question of every peripheral ever made. Manufacturers make too many promises.

[covert cradle]

my favorite is when a manufacturer changes parts without changing the product name

[blazing lily]

i swear the last few LTT videos I've watched have had really badly scuffed audio, latest one has a constant low rumble from an AC or something lol

[restive lion]

I stg ltt viewers complain about the stupidest things

[blazing lily]

its a 16mil sub channel cmon

[restive lion]

Its still a YouTube channel

[covert cradle]

this is gonna be such a pita for ltt labs I suspect. probably gonna need a warning for manufacturers that have that tendancy

[blazing lily]

its maybe a two click fix to remove it in post

[restive lion]

"Fix it in post" is a phrase I despise

Sincerely,
Someone who works in post

[blazing lily]

i mean sometimes you have no choice

[restive lion]

They found the other choice; don't do anything

[blazing lily]

lowkey kinda based

but still take the fkn rumble out the mics damn get a highpass on there

[restive lion]

Just saying I see way bigger channels with worse issues that no one complains about

[blazing lily]

ya for sure

[restive lion]

Then we go over to ltt and people are complaining about a minor audio thing in the background like it's rendering the video unwatchable

[blazing lily]

nah not at all I just want em to do a bit better with audio

[restive lion]

Doubt it's worth the time for them

[blazing lily]

everything about LTT presentation is top notch pretty much, but they let the audio slip pretty often and it drags the whole thing down

[restive lion]

Audio is the hardest thing on set to get right

[blazing lily]

but dropping the price of a house on a RED is worth :V

[vapid wharf]

Jesus I need to learn c for NVPL

[restive lion]

One time cost vs ongoing cost

(Every time you want to start recording)

Audio problems are rarely an equipment issue

[blazing lily]

i think it's more LTT dont have a dedicated audio tech on set or for editing

usually cam op monitoring audio which is never a good thing lol

[restive lion]

Pretty standard for an operation of their size

Until you're getting to ~40k per shoot, there's typically not a dedicated audio op

It makes significantly more sense to spend money elsewhere up until about that point

[vapid smelt]

Also a large company

[restive lion]

It's not tho?

[vapid smelt]

Over 100 people work at lmg

[restive lion]

Large for a YouTube channel sure, but it's still pretty small

[covert cradle]

oof. I'm a C++ and Rust user myself, though lately I haven't written much of either instead just trying my hand at EE

[pliant karma]

agree lol I am still not satisfied with the audio for 2 recent shoots but being a team of two ima give it a pass.

[vapid wharf]

Dw I can link it to C++ lol

[pliant karma]

Had a team of 4 but I removed two of them for not doing their job correctly, but that made it easier to just comminicate with one person.

[vapid wharf]

The thing is I mostly use C++ since I wrap shit on libtorch (which I am in process of unlearning Python's PyTorch in favor of it)

[restive lion]

Panda can back me up on this, in our industry we usually employ dozens of crew (notably, this doesn't include anything but the actual on set crew) for many days to get similar quantities of content to LMG

[covert cradle]

made a little battery monitor, balancer, protector thingamajig

[restive lion]

Boom op promotions go hard

[pliant karma]

not just boom op, audio mixing. I had to train two of them on the spot since they missed half of the filming days. Ran a tight ship so two strikes and it was it for them.

[covert cradle]

is is a custom c-like lang like cuda or is nvpl just an api?

[vapid wharf]

API

But it mostly work through c

(or fortran if you're one of those people)

[restive lion]

Goddamn

[pliant karma]

Funny how on that 40 people crew, audio department only had 4 people. It being the smallest one out of them all

While Grip and Electric had loads of people

[restive lion]

I show up 2 minutes late to class and get crucified by my instructors lol

My brother in Christ I am paying to be here and have an hour long commute

[covert cradle]

interesting

[restive lion]

When I get paid I'll ensure im always on time

[zealous cedar]

Same with healthcare

[pliant karma]

hehe now imagine being on shoot till 6am.

[restive lion]

I'll be experiencing that in two weeks here

48h film festival time

[pliant karma]

ah yea that is fun

[covert cradle]

I am not lol. I'm young and unemployed. I feel like if I knew fortran I'd probably be employed by now /j

[pliant karma]

I was called in to replace someone at 8pm expecting to wrap at 2ish, but that just spiraled into 6. Somehow I still had the energy to show up to class and run to another shoot after

so merely 24 hours with maybe a short hour nap

[restive lion]

Goddamn

See this is the part I hate about film

[pliant karma]

Not surprised I've done this before but worse. Unhealthy AF but welcome to my world with student films and deadlines.

[restive lion]

If you asked a construction worker to work a 16hr shift they'd beat you over the head with a drill

But in film that's just normal

[pliant karma]

IASTE or any union in general wouldn't let this fly lol.

[restive lion]

Lol

I hate unions for the most part but I do like hour limits

[pliant karma]

https://deadline.com/2024/05/9-1-1-crew-member-killed-car-accident-1235914615/

this was not too long ago

[restive lion]

For run n gun (the film festival) I solved this by just using my house as the location

[pliant karma]

lol good choice

[restive lion]

Most of the crew will sleep downstairs too

[pliant karma]

last year I used my place for that too.

[vapid wharf]

I got hired to break shit and learn boomer programming languages and boomer libraries (BLAS and lapacke)

[pliant karma]

My office was editing central so I sacraficed my pc and any equipment in there for editors and assistant editors to work.

[restive lion]

Yeah my PC and edit server are gonna become the edit station

Tbh I have a wicked editing setup

[covert cradle]

well if you ever need a highly enthusiastic unpaid intern lmk. I've focused more on the cpu side of things but I do love GPGPU too

[pliant karma]

I stole this from the editing bays on campus purely for that.

[restive lion]

My pc is in the basement with the home theatre, so full 5.1 audio testing area

[vapid wharf]

I wanted to work on AMD GPU stuff but work spent $2.4 mill on new ARM's so

[restive lion]

No colour grading setups though

[pliant karma]

More concerning that I knew where everything was so super easy for me just to walk in and casually take it out without question

[vapid wharf]

So yeah, I am now focused on CPU side of things.

[restive lion]

Yeah that shit wouldn't fly at my school

[covert cradle]

SVE and SME are really cool, but I definitely enjoy AVX512 on the AMD side of things. My gtx 1080 may be dead but that 7950x3d is still doing good

[pliant karma]

Still hate it that someone stole a RED camera.

[covert cradle]

oh you said amd gpu. idk much about those

[vapid wharf]

The AMD position I wanted to do is GPU only LMOA

[pliant karma]

sucks for them reported stolen so RED can deny servicing it

[restive lion]

If it has a barcode on it and you leave the building with it, ops will descend on you like bezos catching an employee on a washroom break

[vapid wharf]

I don't know SHIT about ROCM and HIP. I only know CUDA and I am now unlearning it for NVPL

[covert cradle]

Checked out MLIR yet? I've been meaning to learn it for a while now but havne't had an excuse yet

[vapid wharf]

Nope

Too new for me since I am working with HPC

[covert cradle]

the work was still very much in progress last I checked but super promising

"one IR to rule them all, and in the darkness bind them" /j

already on the 4.5th beer so I apologize in advance for any incoherence

[pliant karma]

oh yea good luck with gaff tape for your 48h film fest lol

I killed 3 rolls of them and half of one

Director owes me money for more

[covert cradle]

extremely random, but interstellar (1080p) on us youtbue for free rn

[restive lion]

Interstellar is always free if you know where to look

[covert cradle]

I mean yea, I definitely don't have it in 4k.... I promise

[restive lion]

For legal reasons this refers to the blu ray you already own

[covert cradle]

ofc ofc. I as an unemployed poor fucker definitely own the bluray

[pliant karma]

me with a blu-ray reader on my case.

forgot the fractal pop air has that option but hey might as well use it

[covert cradle]

got the right firmware on it? for scientific purposes ofc.

[pliant karma]

no clue I just have it just haven't had time to tinker around yet

[covert cradle]

I forget the date they fixed... the ummm.. bug.

[restive lion]

I'm borrowing my friends right now to pull some blu rays

(Which is legal so fight me FBI agent)

[covert cradle]

What is sad is the level of video quality that streaming sites provide to PCs. They bring this on themselves by only letting TVs and shit get actually decent quality

[vapid wharf]

Imagine working for AMD on their GPU department but your work has been focusing on the CPU side of things

[restive lion]

It's not intentional, they just prioritize tvs since those people are more likely to resub

[covert cradle]

ik, but that doesn't make it any less annoying af. macos should be sufficieintly secure to stream 4k (hdr) content

the stupid workaround that the internet suggest is airplay streaming an ipad/iphone. fucking insane

[covert cradle]

hey, tbf cpu is super important even in gpgpu workload

[restive lion]

Anyways I have a stack of blu rays that are calling me

[covert cradle]

:D

[vapid wharf]

Not to include AMD trying to play into CPIU + GPU architecture

[covert cradle]

I hope they keep trying. the nvidia monopoly is getting very annoying

[vapid wharf]

Would it be funny for me to work at AMD and later get a PhD, and work for NVIDIA afterwards

[covert cradle]

:(

[warped igloo]

should i get a 32" 4k or 27" 1440p if i have a 5070, ill likely be gaming at 1440p on either monitor

[covert cradle]

as a producitivity obessor, 4k. but realistiaclly 1440p probably better suits a gamer

[warped igloo]

ill be doing about half of each

[covert cradle]

start with whatever you feel is more important. you can get 1440p high refresh rate for the gaming rbut after get a 4k lower refresh rate higher brigthness etc for the producitivity or content consumption tasks

[blazing beacon]

bruh

[warped igloo]

yeah i think i gotta go with the 32" 4k, i dont do a lot of high level gaming, mostly single player stuff and i dont think 5" less of screen space is worth the tradeoff

[blazing beacon]

that was u

ngl though i dont know how u could do that

[analog light]

Only my middle gpu fan is spinning and theres no display am I cooked?

like i stole a pen a LONG time ago and shit still comes into my mind while panda stole tbh idk what that thing is or how much it costs

more then a pen i know that

wasnt even a good pen it was one of those crap BIC ones

[pliant karma]

heh just ask and also relations with the people that run the dep.

[blazing beacon]

dude how can u not feel guilty af

i have guilt over a damn 20 cent pen i stole 15 years ago how the hell do u not

[pliant karma]

I'm one of the few students who has equipment insurance that'll cover pretty much all the equipment at checkout

so I am allowed to take stuff off campus if need be

[blazing beacon]

and u said u lost it?

[pliant karma]

no I returned it after

no way I am losing that

[blazing beacon]

then how did u steal it

some people do be stealing shit though

[pliant karma]

had one of the prof open the editing suit so I can take it for 2 days

[blazing beacon]

im still MAD at that person who stole the fuel from my car 2 years ago

[pliant karma]

People wanting to steal film equipment from my campus piss me off to say the least

two REDs stolen in the past 4 years and some expensive audio kit

[blazing beacon]

i feel that ive had stuff stolen from my car several times

money/fuel/cant say here/pack of gum/underwear

also i will tell u i do NOT know why they would want the middle thing

[pliant karma]

yea biggest rule we have on campus is storing any sort of film equipment you rented from the school in the car even if it is parked on campus

lucky our parking lot doesn't have alot of thefts but the west side of campus is always a constant battle.

[blazing beacon]

ive had my car stolen from in walmart parking lot but mostly at my house its annoying

damn thugs broke my lock so i cant even lock it anymore

i need a new car like not new new but a diffrent car

[dapper island]

Just get a new door and have it replaced

[blazing beacon]

ive had my tires slashed as well

[blazing beacon]

nah car breaks down a lot and it sucks its old AF

[dapper island]

Ik a pretty easy solution blow their brains out simple lol

[blazing beacon]

also it axel wobbles weirdly after i hit a curb

[dapper island]

They wont learn till its critical

But realistically the problem is the government got us against each other

[blazing beacon]

if i knew who it was but knowing my luck the cops would side with them im not well liked in my area

[dapper island]

True america sucks

[blazing beacon]

i know why they slash my tires its because im LGBT ive had them put hard to remove stickers on my car too that say BAD shit pictures of demons or bible verses

have had my paint scratched too

[dapper island]

Im tieed

[blazing beacon]

even got chased by a dude with a knife once dont know why but dude was in a hood walking around with a knife out already luckily he stopped chasing after half a minute and vanished

wasnt even night too broad daylight

[dapper island]

Damn

[blazing beacon]

yea i wanna move this area sucks

[dapper island]

Wya

[blazing beacon]

flordia

a red part of flordia

[dapper island]

Im in Louisiana

[blazing beacon]

yea people here are not nice

the worst part is knowing that man had he REALLY wanted to actually stab me he could have i dont think he was fully serous or tbh i dont know but dude def could have outran me

i dont have the best stam

but who knows he could have been on something dont know but am glad he didnt even if he did scare the living hell out of me

[dapper island]

Ifk

Idk

[blazing beacon]

we were walking diffrent directions he passed me i saw the switchblade in his had and averted my eyes from him and sped up and then i heard him start running behind me i turn around and hes starting to run/jog at me i was 0-0 and started running myself after i was out of breath i turned around he was gone

doesnt help i was wearing damn flipflops at the time i dont wear them anymore

[dapper island]

Damn

[blazing beacon]

yea wasnt a fun time

one other time had rocks thrown at me

luckily their aim sucked so i didnt get hit

well there was a few but only 1 was actually throwing

teen boys being mean they did hit my car but i decided not to push it their parents i know them and they have money

luckily my car is already ass and has scratches and dents so it didnt really do anything

doubt it would really affect its value any more then it already is

Love the subtle jab by Linus at Steve GN for his lack of journalistic ethics on his video about YouTube. Allowing ads for asbloxksrs.

It’s right on the start of the clip on lmg but paraphrasing “if were kinda cosplayjng as like journalists we have like a modal obligation to reach out so we did”

[alpine gale]

Sure. Upload it to https://greasyfork.org/en 🙂

[grim belfry]

It certainly does

[brittle harness]

i did delete system32 and installed linux

[shut lichen]

It'll boot a lot faster after running rm -rf /* --no-preserve-root
Steam isn't hard to get working, skill issue.

[modern granite]

Yea

I told you to not redeem it

Don't redeem

[grim belfry]

💯 Don’t want languages you don’t need slowing the system down, especially French

[alpine gale]

Redeem... what?

[brittle harness]

yeah ists my first stab at linux and im for som reason not getting my steam guard verification code. also, what doeas rm -rf /* --no-preserve-root actually do?

[modern granite]

Da code

[grim belfry]

Removes the French language

[brittle harness]

oh

[alpine gale]

What "code"?

[brittle harness]

is that in by default???

[shut lichen]

You should probably learn the main commands and their options before continuing

[grim belfry]

It is! Always best to remove it

[slim yacht]

ballerina cappucina

[pallid falcon]

Your gonna wipe everything

[grim belfry]

The —no-preserve-root flag is because Linux really likes having the French language for some reason

[brittle harness]

k it would probably also help to know some commands when im trying to compile my rust code

[west oar]

should i buy these? 9$ for the combo

[modern granite]

Yo phone linging

[brittle harness]

oh wait i hope vs code works on linux. or rustrover. or something.

[sinful jetty]

gamers

[shut lichen]

rm deletes things
-rf makes it delete everything in the folders
/* is the path to delete, which in this case is the whole filesystem
--no-preserve-root overrides the thing that would normally stop you from deleting important things

[grim belfry]

Vs code is available on Linux

Same with

[sinful jetty]

vscode works super well on linux

[modern granite]

Hello your computer has virus

[grim belfry]

[brittle harness]

so you guys are basically trolling me

[shut lichen]

Well done Sherlock

This is what the internet does

[brittle harness]

oh well that happens when trying a new os

[sinful jetty]

internet people are so cringe

[pallid falcon]

Microsoft supporting Linux weird

[brittle harness]

on my way

[grim belfry]

And you’re… not an internet person?

[pallid falcon]

Neofetch 🙏

[sinful jetty]

idk probably

[shut lichen]

Digital ocean guides are usually pretty good

[brittle harness]

also why is my jetbrains page in german? my system language and timezone is sweden

[winged spire]

decided on my radio for the cubesat/balloon

[sinful jetty]

neofetch is trash

[west oar]

@turbid falcon opinions on the p12 max? im planing to buy those to replace my radiator fans

[winged spire]

this with an RF amp

[brittle harness]

wait vim is preinstalled?

[next stratus]

Depends which flavour of linux you run

[grim belfry]

Depends what distro you’re using

[brittle harness]

im using kubuntu

not gonna open it i wanna be able to actually exit my programs

[sinful jetty]

man setting up your linux installation will take you down a bottomless rabbithole

[grim belfry]

Ubuntu and be done with it I say 😌

[shut lichen]

nano > vim
This post has been approved by normal sysadmins

[brittle harness]

thats kinda what i was hoping for lol

[next stratus]

Im a sysadmin, I dont approve this post

[sinful jetty]

nano is so annoying to use tho once you get used to vim

[next stratus]

Each to their oen though

[shut lichen]

You're clearly not normal then

[next stratus]

Never said i was haha

[sinful jetty]

@brittle harness neovim is something worth looking into

[brittle harness]

sticking with vs code for now but maybe ill try it to be able to say that i code in neovim

[sinful jetty]

neovim has literally unlimited potential for customization

people literally have git repos specifically dedicated to their nvim config files and whatnot

[brittle harness]

oh dis gonna be my most used command BY FAR

[pallid falcon]

vi > vim

[sinful jetty]

me when i lie

[turbid falcon]

really good fans tbh, they're cheap to get and their most optimal speed is at around 1800 rpm

[pallid falcon]

idk how to use vim (i was taught vi)

[sinful jetty]

isn't it a superset of vi?

[pallid falcon]

idk

[sinful jetty]

like all vi commands should just work on vim

[grim belfry]

Nano is superior

Cross platform

Good luck using your vim bullshit in powershell

[shut lichen]

Love installing git on windows and getting nano and a bunch of command aliases to make by brain work less

[grim belfry]

winget install gnu.nano

[shut lichen]

Gotta have git anyway, not much point in installing it seperately

[grim belfry]

Does git install nano?

[sinful jetty]

my favourite thing is subconsciously trying curl in powershell and then getting struck down by microsoft's incredible design choices

wydm curl is an alias for "Invoke-WebRequest"??? lmao who decided that one

[shut lichen]

There's an option in the installer for it, a long with aliases for commands

[grim belfry]

What about when you do winget install git.git

Is that the default

[shut lichen]

I can't remember if it's a default option or not

Did winget ever get the option to have the installer open?

[sinful jetty]

i remember it opening some kind of installer gui for git

when i used winget

[grim belfry]

Yeah with flags

Some things will open a wizard by default

[modern granite]

Guys after setting up your linux machine type sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root to speed up linux like crazy <3

[pallid falcon]

is it?

[grim belfry]

winget install gnu.nano

Try it yourself

[pallid falcon]

👀 interesting

[sinful jetty]

do you actually use nano on windows?

or are you just memeing

[grim belfry]

I have used it

notepad.exe is usually easier

GUI ❤️

[pallid falcon]

vscode <3

[grim belfry]

vscode is a pita to just change something little

And notepad is already there

[sinful jetty]

man now i really want to go back to arch, i just don't know if i have the patience to do that

i genuinely miss tiled windows

[pallid falcon]

arch kde is bae

[shut lichen]

Ok but what is the flag?

Last time I tried it didn't seem to exist

[shut lichen]

... No

[grim belfry]

Knowing Microsoft it’s probably different for each package

[sinful jetty]

lol i went the footgun route and picked my own stack for a desktop

[grim belfry]

Yes….

It’s preinstalled

[sinful jetty]

it's never too late to torture your linux installation by ripping out random components and replacing it with something else at runtime

[modern granite]

Yea like speeding up by using
sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root

[ocean dust]

im a cat ( not a furry )

[viscid mason]

also just so no one gets mad, when i say "performs good" i mean it works great as a work laptop and a little bit of now settings gaming

[sinful jetty]

what the hell lmao

[viscid mason]

lmao

also this is NOT my main computer, this is just a secondary i made cause i got bored

[viscid mason]

hehe

[sinful jetty]

i dream of doing jank shit like this one day

[wet ivy]

I wanna make some nice and cool friends! If anyone wants to be friends and is a nice person I’d be happy to be friends 🙂

If you’d like to be friends please dm me I’d greatly appreciate it! And if we’re friends I can share pics of my ultra cute twin cats!

Today I found out the CEO/co-founder of Duolingo is also a CEO and Founder of reCAPTCHA

[tawny ibex]

Hey I'm new in kali linux how can I start learning linux for cyber security

Tools like Nmap Wireshark

[viscid mason]

lol, it’s fun

[next stratus]

Youtube tutorials for the tools you want to learn

[sinful jetty]

does wd-40 help that hinge?

[viscid mason]

That would get black stuff on it

[sinful jetty]

vaseline would probably also work wonders

[viscid mason]

So my plan is to use olive oil

[sinful jetty]

olive oil stinks

[viscid mason]

Or keyboard lube

[winged spire]

WD40 isn’t a lubricant

[viscid mason]

True

[winged spire]

Use superlube

[viscid mason]

Ye

[winged spire]

Superlube is goated and foodsafe

[viscid mason]

Maybe

Idk, i don’t mind the sound

And with the way the hinge is designed it would get oil or lube everywhere

If I wanted it gone I could just sand it

But for Gen 1 this is fine lol

[sinful jetty]

any plans to jerryrig that keyboard? lol

[tired charm]

Anyone know if it would be better to buy all the parts for a new pc in one go or just get them as i get money

[viscid mason]

lol, I might add a low profile mechanical one eventually

[sinful jetty]

do whatever gets you the parts

[viscid mason]

Yeah lol

[tired charm]

so it doesn't matter really?

[sinful jetty]

no?

i mean depends on if you have a specific system or part or configuration in mind, yk

[viscid mason]

Not rly, I would recommend checking for any bundles to same on money tho

Like cpu/motherboard combos

[tired charm]

where would you recommend that?

[tired charm]

ok

[winged spire]

https://a.co/d/6qIlBZs

[viscid mason]

Microcenter if you have one near you

[viscid mason]

Thx

[winged spire]

This stuff works on everything

[winged spire]

And it’s delicious

[viscid mason]

Lmao

[tired charm]

i don't think there are any in australia

[viscid mason]

Oh yeah prob not

[sinful jetty]

australia sounds expensive lol

[viscid mason]

Yeah id just get them one at a time in that situation

[tired charm]

ok

[winged spire]

It’s also clear so it doesn’t leave that nasty ass crust lithium grease does

[viscid mason]

Fr

[sinful jetty]

man i wish i could help you out with buying a used GPU, that shit saves you so much money if you're on a budget

[viscid mason]

Super lube is just built different

rtx 3080's are hella cheap atm

dang, that’s actually kinda insane

[sinful jetty]

it is a really shitty aib but a 3080 is a 3080

[tired charm]

wait nvm

[sinful jetty]

this card doesn't even have 0 rpm mode 😭

[warped igloo]

i got a new 5070 for $150 😭

[tired charm]

not the cpu i was looking at

[viscid mason]

Yeah lol

[viscid mason]

How!?

[sinful jetty]

nice, but how??

[warped igloo]

employee discount

[viscid mason]

Bros hacking irl

Mod abuse lmao

[tired charm]

if i buy seperately what should i buy first?

[viscid mason]

That’s up to you

Probably a case or GPU tho

Or maybe motherboard

[tired charm]

ok i might get a case first just so when i get other parts i can just put the boxes in there

[sinful jetty]

what's your budget? i can help you find some parts, if you'd like

[viscid mason]

Fair

[cinder vapor]

[tired charm]

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/user/Shoogz/saved/#view=yGwQGX i am using these

[viscid mason]

Embed fail

[sinful jetty]

the pc won't run until you have all the parts anyway lol, just don't worry about the order quite yet

[cinder vapor]

Yeah

[pulsar violet]

Is there a way to install Linux on my windows drive without creating a new partition and wiping the drive but also have no connection with my windows drive?

[viscid mason]

Oof

[sinful jetty]

it's a private list, i can't view it

[cinder vapor]

Use a separate drive?

[viscid mason]

Shrink the windows partition as much as possible

[pulsar violet]

Alr

I might get a external SSD

[sinful jetty]

WSL

[viscid mason]

And then use the new leftover partition to put Linux on

[pulsar violet]

as I have 2 systems

[pulsar violet]

I got Hyper V as well

[viscid mason]

Or that lol

[tired charm]

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/JqvHsp that better?

[viscid mason]

Alr yall

It’s 4:30 am for me

Cya and gn

[sinful jetty]

it's always weird seeing parts lists from other countries. in canada, amazon is pretty much the cheapest option 95% of the time

[tired charm]

haha

are they alright parts?

[sinful jetty]

*sus ssd

lmao i got censored by the bot

[tired charm]

should i change anything?

[sinful jetty]

imo shelling out some money for an ssd with dram is worth it

[tired charm]

what should i get then?

i just want to upgrade from my pc i have atm lol, it is so bad

[sinful jetty]

what's your current system look like?

and what do u want to do on ur new pc? like what games, what resolution, etc

[tired charm]

idk the parts but it is an inspiron 3891

[sinful jetty]

that doesn't sound very good lol i feel you

[tired charm]

i want to be able to run fps games decently well

[sinful jetty]

have you looked into buying a used GPU?

idk what the used marketplace looks like when you're upside down, but don't worry about it if you're not confident

[tired charm]

i haven't really looked at used ones, i was going to get the allied stinger-a pc before but it was cheaper to get better parts

i will just save the extra money for parts if i need

[sinful jetty]

about the cpu cooler

it's a good choice, thermalright makes banger heatsinks. did u want rgb?

[tired charm]

tbh idk if i want rgb or not, like would it look dull with out rgb?

[sinful jetty]

that's a personal preference

this is what i use https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0BN9ZFZ2X, and my tempered glass panel is facing the wall. i don't even care lmao

[manic torrent]

RGB is disgusting

[sinful jetty]

i should not make comments about aesthetics, i have ram with red heatsinks, and brown noctua intake fans

but i agree, i don't like rgb lol
