[winged spire]

oh wow

CCS2 only does 350kw max?

thats significantly less than I had thought

enough for current day cars but NACS can theoredically do upto 1mW

for sure upto 500kw

Super charger access isnt the same as having a built in NACS port though

I guess that really just means selling an adaptor that works

I know for a fact thats what ford does, they use to offer it for free

[sage quiver]

Or the few magic dock stations

Assuming they still exist?

[winged spire]

magic dock?

oh just open compatibility? yeah

all super chargers are open to all EVs assuming you can physically accept power

[sage quiver]

Adapter built into the station

[leaden orbit]

legally skipping school (i have no classes today) is more boring than skipping school because im sick ngl

[winged spire]

thats cool

never seen that before

[sage quiver]

They started with those before wide adoption of NACS

Maybe even before the standard was published?

[winged spire]

now that nacs is officially an open standard its probably not a thing anymore

[leaden orbit]

welp, time to grind japanese ig (and then grind skyfactory 4)

[sage quiver]

Learning while off is pretty based

[vapid smelt]

If only it didn't have the cover so humans could throw trash in it while walking past it in the parking lot

[alpine gale]

It can, but the wire gauge and cooling required to prevent the charging cables from overheating means that weak individuals would struggle to plug / unplug their vehicle at charging stations.

[winged spire]

thats already an issue for V4 definitely

I was saying earlier, V4 cables are SO stiff, unless you do like.. wrist workouts its often not easy to plug in with a single hand

[sage quiver]

Cables got thinner once they started liquid cooling them

[winged spire]

yep

[leaden orbit]

it's distance ed. i have 4 classes through distance ed, so i'm trying to get ahead of one before i get put on my work for software eng, it multimedia and physics (moved to the country from my school near sydney, so only two of my classes are offered here, and japanese just carries over from my school near sydney) 🫠

[sage quiver]

But yeah, very stiff

[winged spire]

V3 which is most chargers at this point is good though

thats like the perfect thickness imo

upto 250kw and still super easy to plug in

yall seen the electric truck plugs?

[leaden orbit]

every day i either start late or i go home really fucking early. except wednesday A, i start at 10am (instead of 9am) and go home at normal time, with 2 studies between recess and lunch.

[vapid smelt]

How much copper are in the cables

[leaden orbit]

i am not this self motivated 😭

[winged spire]

not much since theyre not watercooled

[alpine gale]

"About 80-120lbs, give or take, depending on the length -- HEY WAIT, why are you holding a hacksaw?" 🤔 👀

[sage quiver]

Inefficient inductive charging here we come!

[leaden orbit]

nvm hatsune miku just started playing i'm very self motivated now

[vapid smelt]

[winged spire]

Theres a company that does electric forklifts and such that manages 90+% efficency via induction

[winged spire]

v3, so most of them.. just a heads up lol

[winged spire]

25kw or something

[alpine gale]

Oh, I see. You're just converting them to wireless charging. Nevermind, carry on with that hacksaw.

[sage quiver]

It’s a start

[vapid smelt]

Bluetooth technology

[sage quiver]

Good enough for daytime fleets ig

[winged spire]

id buy a home charger thats wireless

[dusky jacinth]

[winged spire]

25kw is several times more than the average home charger

[vapid smelt]

I bet it would remove snow too

[sage quiver]

I know peeps that charge on 110 and rarely need more

[echo sluice]

[sage quiver]

Yup

Or >200 miles of range

[winged spire]

forsure, you can get like a solid 5ish miles an hour

you get home at 5:30 car sits there till like 7 or 8 the next day

[sage quiver]

Nothing quite like a full tank every morning.

[winged spire]

if you do less than like 40 miles a day on average youll literally think about charging your car again

[alpine gale]

On the flipside / more seriously... I legitimately do travel greater distances than we have charging infrastructure to support lower range / city driving EVs, which further narrows my options.

Don't get me wrong; for commuting, most people definitely don't need the range and can charge overnight at home no problem. But some of us actually use their vehicles for roadtrips multiple times a month so...

[winged spire]

Ive dont so many roadtrips, I love roadtripping my model 3 even with standard range

in the lower 48 I can confindiently say you can go anywhere to anywhere via EV now

via tesla super chargers alone

[sage quiver]

Helps if it’s a Tesla

[winged spire]

my longest was new orleans to las vegas

and back

[sage quiver]

Even with open access, V2 is still Tesla only I think? Or is it V1s

[winged spire]

fold the seats back, get a small matrress pad and some blankets and I just sleep in the back

very comfortable with camp mode

[winged spire]

never encountered a v1 in the wild

[sage quiver]

Really?

[vapid smelt]

https://youtu.be/5Qu-BDixGYY?feature=shared

[winged spire]

the little squared off stubby ones? nah

[alpine gale]

We did a roadtrip from BC through WA + OR last year in a 2016 (?) Model 3, also I think standard range? Can't remember. Anywho, regardless, between Superchargers and a couple other brand Fast Chargers, it was fine in the USA and in the Lower Mainland / Surrey / Langely / Abbotsford areas of BC. On the island... not so much.

[winged spire]

never seen these before

[sage quiver]

Ah hm

I guess I just meant older V2s with less power

Definitely below 100kw

[winged spire]

the ONLY time I have ever seen any issue with EV charging is Choctaw territory

which case, finding a normal GAS STATION is a challange in some parts

My friend owns a cabin out there and I was looking if Id be able to swing down but I dont have the wall plug and the nearest charger is like 80 miles away

Native american territories rarely have any amenities

[vapid smelt]

Dare you to drive on this Utah road with an estimated range of 111 miles

[winged spire]

lol

you seen those signs at death vally?

[vapid smelt]

I have not

[winged spire]

Similar stuff except they also DEMAND that you do not walk outside after 10 AM

so if your car breaks down you die lol

real sign lmao

[wispy dragon]

Yall fw dodge rams

Why not?

[winged spire]

Dodge

[wispy dragon]

And?

What’s wrong with dodge

[winged spire]

RAM has some of the highest maintaince costs out of any car brand

fine otherwise I guess

https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/car-maintenance/the-cost-of-car-ownership-a1854979198/

[wispy dragon]

I meant like older rams…

I have a gasser 2nd gen

[vapid smelt]

I bet it's not that bad

[vapid smelt]

I should buy a Lincoln

[winged spire]

yeah lincon is pretty wild for that

ill never own a ford

or any stelantis car

WHAT

lincon is owned by ford????? thats insane

[alpine gale]

Has been for... ever? At least a long time.

[winged spire]

never knew that

[vapid smelt]

My next car will be a used Buick or Toyota 1998-2008

[velvet marsh]

1922

[winged spire]

If I ever win the lotto I wanna EV swap a honda Odysey lol

[vapid smelt]

Only if the buick has the 3.8 v6

[alpine gale]

Toyota's from the early to mid 2000's are the bomb. Take care of them and they'll go for half a million KM's or more.

[velvet marsh]

I had a 2000 Buick Regal with the 3.8 v6 and a supercharger

[winged spire]

The model S plaid and the Honda Odyssey have the exact same wheelbase so it would be incredibly easy to do a full EV swap

make a 1000hp honda odyssey thats completely dead silent and stock looking

[vapid smelt]

And more practical

Since it's a roomy van

[winged spire]

yeah

fit so many hoes in there 😈

[vapid smelt]

Need to move a washer or dryer ez pz

[winged spire]

Theyll think im a good responsible and practical guy buying a honda odyssey

lol

[sage quiver]

“I’m sure you have a beautiful family”

[vapid smelt]

[sage quiver]

Hmm

What if I DO wanna build my dreams

[vapid smelt]

So ugly

Let's not lie your getting it because of the RGB dash

[alpine gale]

Ah, the joys of older SubUwU's indeed. I'd love to have a Baja (there's one in town I'm waiting to see if the owners ever put up for sale) but also... I don't want to deal with the woes of their pre-2014 engines.

[winged spire]

This is what I need

%90+ efficiency

[vapid smelt]

I also need a fork lift

[winged spire]

nah I mean the wireless charger

[sage quiver]

Or just doesn’t charge

[winged spire]

it uses canbus but I guess I can forgive that 🤮

as long as I never have to touch it

[vapid smelt]

What if I place my wireless charging phone next to it...

[winged spire]

nothing

[sage quiver]

Chinese phone fast charging be like

[alpine gale]

Surely they'd never do this - after all, everyone is a forklift professional after watching Forklift Driver Klaus.

[vapid smelt]

As a forklift certified person I see no huge benefits in a wireless charging one it's dead simple to charge with a cord

[winged spire]

idc about the forklift use

I meant I want the wireless system for my car

cool!

thank god

[vapid smelt]

We have more equipment then chargers so the long cables come in handy

[winged spire]

its ok bud

[winged spire]

i dont know if id trust the average warehouse employee with parking the forklift close enough to the pad

[vapid smelt]

Our guys would totally hit the wireless charging station

[winged spire]

without.. hitting it

yeah lol

[vapid smelt]

What's the charging distance

[winged spire]

IIRC it was pretty damn far

relatively

150mm

thats like distance from the pad

dunno about forward/back

wait

[vapid smelt]

We would need to shrink the island or widen it if it's not double sided

does anyone know why it says I have discord nitro and I have all the features for it but I have no active subscriptions?

[surreal spire]

Hey everybody! I'm in the market for an M1 MacBook Air and I'm wondering if anybody has any tips for where I should go to get one for a good deal. If you hear of any reputable websites, retailers or certified-refurbishers making sweet deals, I’d be so happy. P.S. my price range is 230-285, I know it’s low.

[alpine gale]

Perhaps you signed up for a free trial? Though I don't see Nitro on your user profile so...

[civic fox]

discord gave out a week free because of its birthday on may 13th

[alpine gale]

Must be limited to certain user accounts or something. I did not receive it.

[civic fox]

it might've been yea, because i got it and some other people did, i don't think everyone did though, but the trial would be about done by now anyway since it was only a week starting may 13th

[snow magnet]

I thought it gave me it for my birthday

cause my birthday was around that time

[civic fox]

wouldnt that be nice haha

Anyone owns a travel wallet by any chance?

[alpine gale]

Um. I mean, I travel and have a wallet. Does that count? (I don't see the distinction between regular wallet and travel wallet. Why would I want yet another wallet to manage in my life, even if only for traveling?)

Yee, it's an app used for instance cash transfers or something I think. IDK. Up here in Canada we've had (mostly free) person-to-person funds transfers available directly through our banks via Interac eTransfer since like... 2003?

[surreal spire]

Yet they can’t survive a keyboard cover

[civic fox]

we have cashapp, venmo, paypal, zelle, and a bunch of other ones

i mean if you use the same bank you dont have to, but a lot of times thats not the case

the US is weird

[grim belfry]

Silly silly Americans

[vapid wharf]

Yeah because my current passport is just laying on my cabinet somewhere along with my home ID's, so I wanted to at least have one which I can use to organize all of my shit

[alpine gale]

Ah, righto. I just use my regular wallet when traveling, and store my passport with a backup credit card somewhere else on my person. That way I have at least 1 ID and payment method stored in separate locations in case someone decides to inconvenience me. I do adjust what's in my wallet before I travel though.

[vapid wharf]

Yeah, I was thinking that too. Mine's mostly on organization since I don't want to have random scattered stuff around. I have a regular wallet but it won't fit anything bigger than folded cash so I need a travel wallet.

I'll probably get the Fjallraven passport wallet and have it store my home ID's (and debit cards) and passport at home and take it out when I need to travel w/ my current ID's

At place I can just take some cards out lol

[alpine gale]

Um. I sure hope so? Unless I don't understand what they mean by Windproof.

[vapid wharf]

Because it is windproof, duh

[alpine gale]

Does this mean that my non-windproof regular wallet will simply just let all my cards and cash blow away the moment I attempt to open it in winds above 15km/h ? 🤔 I have so many questions...

[formal vessel]

Yes it does

[alpine gale]

Well shit. Guess I'm gonna need one of these Windproof wallets.

[vapid wharf]

I also have a really cheap, dirty, shitty card wallet which I can use lmao

[alpine gale]

Not a bad tactic. Carry a minimal amount of things in the crappy wallet so it 1) has less to steal, and 2) looks like it's not worth stealing in the first place.

[half summit]

No way Linus made a Wallet

[alpine gale]

They haven't ... yet. This screenshot is from the product listing for the "Fjallraven passport wallet."

Negative over here. No nitro to be found.

[junior gust]

[north wraith]

Hey, why do wallets designed to hold air tags always have them so prominent? Wouldn’t you want to have it hidden is a secret compartment or something?

[civic fox]

the week is about over now though.

[idle nymph]

it just gave it to me

[civic fox]

i got it a week ago starting may 13th

[idle nymph]

mhm, must have rolled out on different times

[civic fox]

probably, but since i use discord like an unhealthy person, i just subbed to it.

[north wraith]

Wait I think I figured some of it out. Part of it is because the wallet itself is anti rfid or whatever so that why they put the air tag on a bit that’s outside the wallet…. I still think it’s weird how they give it a window a stuff. Unless people like showing off that they have apple so much?

Or dose it need line of sight?

Wait I figured that out too

Theirs a light sensor on AirTags apperntly

[vapid wharf]

Here we just use bank transfers

[alpine gale]

That's basically what Interac eTranfers are here. They're administered by a 3rd party... that was formed by a mix of the big banks + credit unions.

[north wraith]

Your right I think Bing/chat gpt lead me astray… shocking

Maybe anyways

[vapid wharf]

Here its straight from the bank lol

[north wraith]

I just was trying to see “why find my iPhones say ‘it’s too dark to find x’ “

Because I thought air tags needing light might explain that and this weird window that seems to be all the rage with wallets

[alpine gale]

If true, this is news to me. 99.99% certain there is no light sensor.

Had a dream Linus did an amd 5k tech upgrade at the house I used to live in 10 years ago and I had to help them do the laborious stuff, which was for some reason painting the persons car entirely white. It was so white that you couldnt see the shape of the car it looked like vantablack but white instead.
I then got really frustrated cause for some reason the white paint was on top of black paint in the bucket and mine got mixed up because I am not a painter and it started turning gray, so instead I started mudding the walls(???) with a 10 foot long pallet.
Then I woke up.

hey guys, genuine question.
i’ve been thinking the past few days about upgrading from windows 10 to windows 11.
my current specs are:

ryzen 7 3700x

rtx 4060 ti

2x8gb ram

for those of you who are already using windows 11 — how’s your experience been so far?
would you recommend making the switch now, or is it fine to stick with windows 10 a bit longer?

thanks in advance!

[keen mural]

i mean

i havent used 10 in so long

but

u absolutely should not use mas to activate windows for free

absolutely should not

trust

[viscid elm]

windows 11 is free to download and use and anyways you need to use it in a few months

also update to the latest bios and turn on rebar

[rustic tundra]

absolutely switch from a dying os

dont listen to the complaining

they are wrong

[plain gale]

works perfectly fine. anything that annoys you (for me for example the new context menu) can problably be changed with tools like winaerotweaker

[echo sluice]

i switched from win10 to win11 after hating on it and its fine

the settings app is a bit weird but nothing i need to use regularly so

[polar fern]

That’s rough buddy

[vapid smelt]

I see why she is a ex

[polar fern]

It takes two to tango

In any case, yeah don’t keep that thing open exposed to the outside. You could even get insects in there and even potentially corrosive or conductive dust from people doing house work/ construction or whatever

OK, I was on the phone with state department in charge of my benefits and holy shit I was on hold for over an hour and a half

[winged spire]

gonna lose my shit bro

if you gonna teach a mandetory english class to a bunch of engineering majors do NOT give us 3 essays to do in 6.5 days on finals week

AND require grad student level writing

dude is legitimately the hardest grader ive literally ever had in any subject in any class

[dapper island]

All i have is a gtx 770 lol

[vapid smelt]

We already had English classes k-12

[dapper island]

I do have a 4090 but dont have a adapter to actually see if it works right now its in my other case for decor

[bitter harbor]

2^2+22^2

[winged spire]

I dont see a single reason why english is a required class for engineering majors at the college level

we have 3 required english classes total

[charred matrix]

Honestly because most engineering is communicated over the english language. It seems to be the language of record for engineering in most fields.

[winged spire]

what

these english classes doesnt teach you how to speak english

nor do they teach you how to write say, white papers for actual engineering

[fossil frost]

got asked at 4pm today, to produce a high level design for a new system at work, needs to be ready for noon on thursday.. based on the requirements... the design alone should tkae about 2 weeks to produce properly.. without the investigation work that would also need doing to have any sort of idea how the design would end up looking. and this is to win or lose a multi million pound customer..

[vapid smelt]

They should require you to take some sort of coding class instead imo

[winged spire]

writing for STEM is an entirely different skill to a normal English class

[bitter harbor]

For my college, I have 2 composition classes (1 that I have already done) required for my major as general education credits

[winged spire]

at the very least they should be STEM focused english classes

[charred matrix]

Being able to communicate your engineering concepts to non enginerring professionnals is going to be a key part of what makes you a ssucessful engineer. You need to be able to communicate effectively with both audiences.

[fossil frost]

i long for the days where if i didnt get something done on time, i could just ask for an extension, and it didnt cost people millions

[winged spire]

no extentions lol

classes end at 5pm on friday, full cutoff

[charred matrix]

Ahhh the good old days of not being in charge of budgets or project completions.

[fossil frost]

or in control of data that if managed incorrectly, could kill people 🙂

[winged spire]

none of these english classes give you this skill

[charred matrix]

100% in the same boat! but mines more the services provided in conjunction with the data handled. 😉

[fossil frost]

currently building the type of software where a simple typo such as Mg instead of mg, means someone dies

[winged spire]

The English gen ed requirements should be switched to an engineering specific class teaching you how to do engineering white papers/writeups/whatever

[fossil frost]

or some rules get applied out of order... someone dies

[winged spire]

not generic english major classes

[charred matrix]

My envrionment isn't THAT level but it manages security/safety for millions.

[fossil frost]

or.. some different rules DONT get applied... 100s to 1000s of people could die (chemical waste incorrectly processed)

[winged spire]

yum

what kind of chemical waste

[charred matrix]

Sounds like the dangerous kind. 😉

And I'm sure they are limited on what they can or can't safely discuss in open forums like this.

[fossil frost]

anything, we operate within industrial chemical factories, nuclear processing facilities, power stations... all sorts of places.. to make sure people are where they are supposed to be, doing what they are supposed to be doing, and doing it all in a way where nobody dies

we turn various different sets of machine data, and human input, and environmental data into "you are allowed to do this" or "no... really dont do that" essentially

[bitter harbor]

I’m currently halfway through week two of my summer classes in Calc 2. Brain hurty.

[winged spire]

I need to register for mine

[charred matrix]

Reminds me of a company I knew that was doing radiological detection and management for oil well drillers.

[winged spire]

I cant right now, since im doing that summer course at a different college I gotta file all the fourms again

cant do the FERPA or whatever untill I get this

And my DL is at my house 8 hours away lol

I have NEVER seen that 3rd photo requirmeent before

thats wild

[bitter harbor]

I at least scored really good off campus housing at an affordable price

Roommates are better than before as well

[charred matrix]

Yea the taking tests from home requirements are REDICULIOUS. Some even require focus on the camera and track eye movement. (nvidia broadcast to the rescue.)

[winged spire]

thats just FERPA

gov form for the finantial whatever whatever shit

need to submit that before I can actually register for my summer course

[fossil frost]

our software is used anywhere where there are any type of chemicals, or any type of unsafe work... some of the larger power production companies are some of our largest companies.. and some of the rules we have in place, especially for remote workers (remote as in, servicing wind farms in the middle of nowhere), are mental... ie. one of the questions is "do they have a sat phone" "yes/no" "are there any expected satellite outages in the area for the time given" "yes/no"... wrong answer for either of those questions means that dude isnt allowed to even open their toolbox at the bottom of the turbine, nevermind climb up it

because you know... might die...

"has the emergency parachute been serviced" "has the worker had parachute training"...

[charred matrix]

I mean that makes sense.

[fossil frost]

(and yes, turbines over a certain height, have escape parachutes)

[bitter harbor]

I recommend speeding up on that. If your college is anything like mine, all that is left now is 7:30 am timeslots

[charred matrix]

I wonder does that begin with "Is the technician a Union or non Union worker?" And based on that answer then it asks the other security/safety questions. lol

[winged spire]

It’s asynchronous online

registration is open till 29th or something

[fossil frost]

majority of the questions are legally required questions, it doesnt matter what group you are part of

avoiding death and avoiding paying for wrongful death, is something all companies want

[charred matrix]

Yea that was menat to be humorous. I have a dark sense of humor.

[winged spire]

Until it’s nolonger cheaper

[bitter harbor]

I was late for registering for some fall classes and I have several days in the fall at 7:30 am 😭

[winged spire]

Yeah I got an 8 am in the fall

[fossil frost]

our software is cheaper than any given wrongful death lawsuit

[winged spire]

my fall schedule is FUCKED bro

im literally cooked

I cant get into my last english next fall either so I really just gotta find a random easy class to keep my hours up

[bitter harbor]

For spring, I had only one 7:30 am lecture. It was on a Friday and was quite literally an hour long lecture of stuff you could do within your major. Attendance was mandatory by a quiz at the end where they would give you the code to access the quiz

[winged spire]

Since Im on the quarter system I need 8-12 credit hours per quarter but I only have like 7 or something with my math engr and materials classes

[bitter harbor]

That lecture made me hate Fridays

[winged spire]

I would be able to make it up in the next 2 quarters next year but that would mean id likely not be able to withdraw from a class and keep my fulltime status

Obviously not planning on withdrawing but id rather withdraw then get a C or D

we can withdraw from a class until the 8th week, 12 week total per quarter

doesnt show up on the GPA but we still have to obviously just pay for the class

if I drop from fulltime by the end of the summer quarter id loose my finantial aid

24 credits by the end of summer quarter

quarter system definitely has its ups and downs though

its CRAZY SUPER FUCKING fast pace so that can absolutley fuck you if you get sick or something

but that also means you have 3 class slots per year so if you fail or drop a class or something youre not totally fucked

[heady flicker]

I remember taking my calculus classes at 6am

[viscid elm]

no

[winged spire]

id literally kill myself

like what

[heady flicker]

it sucks when it's like -10 degrees outside

[winged spire]

C or F

[heady flicker]

C

[winged spire]

ah yeah, gets abotu that cold here

[heady flicker]

only saving grace was that the night sky is beautiful at 4-5AM

[winged spire]

but its also super humid so it just absolutely SUCKS all the heat off of you

[heady flicker]

the most lights are off that time

[winged spire]

I had 8 am calc last fall

I would wake up at 7:45

get to class, eat breakfast at the caf, pet the cats by the caf, then go to bed until my 2pm class

my sleep schedule was so fucked

(yes obviously I had to fit the cats into my schedule have you met me)

His name is Zuzu and he’s a GOAT

old boy though

I had to stop studying with him after he put a giant muddy paw print on the center of my engineering writeup

zuzu on the left, dunno the name of the other one but hes not friendly

And yes ZUZU definitely thinks hes a full grown panther in the grasslands (and hes correct)

Tbh I actually doubt it

Because I will just tell you I don't know shit about it

so it will then provide more correct information than you

[restive lion]

Incorrect information presented as correct information is more harmful than none at all

[winged spire]

that entirely depends on how much of it is incorrect

[restive lion]

Honestly not really

[winged spire]

so all education is harmful

[restive lion]

Maybe if you say 99% is accurate or whatever sure

[winged spire]

because human teachers make lots of mistakes and/or give incorrect information

its not like mixing up information, or being confidently incorrect, or just outright being incorrect is a trait unique to AI lol

[restive lion]

It's not but LLMs also wont tell you when they aren't confident

[winged spire]

yep

[vapid wharf]

Which makes GPT much better because if you know its wrong, you can correct it with newly provided information.

If a human does this, it would be an endless debate and you’d get harassed.

[winged spire]

Copilot is usually even better becuase you can click on the specific section of its response and see the exact spot it got it from

[vapid wharf]

Humans aren’t that good enough to receive criticism.

[hybrid echo]

chatgpt cant get preagnet and miss half the school year

so nah they never will replace teahcs

[gilded quest]

Ew copilot

It's infected my work laptop

[supple pawn]

Aquatic comes in and immediately gets into a rousing discussion about chatGPT, lynchings, and pregnant teachers? Lol

[gilded quest]

I should submit an IT ticket and ask them to make copilot go away

[vapid wharf]

They will not. Even NVIDIA knows this.

[winged spire]

I joined in

didnt even start this

[supple pawn]

I'm just giving you heck man, I know lol

[winged spire]

people will say stuff like this as if literally everything it says is wrong

not even MOST of the stuff it says is wrong

[hybrid echo]

i would say a good 80% is right

in general tasks that is

[winged spire]

I think really the only thing it regularly gives incorrect answers for is math.. because its an LMM

[winged spire]

Ive seen higher than that

[supple pawn]

Its got its uses. The real issue with AI is that people will use it without being aware of its limitations or how it works and thus misuse it.

[winged spire]

its human nature to misuse things, thats not an issue with the AI

[vapid wharf]

Exactly.

[supple pawn]

See the dumbass lawyers who used chatGPT to cite case law.

[vapid wharf]

But at the end its end user’s fault. Like how it always be.

[winged spire]

thats an IQ issue lol

[supple pawn]

And remember, these people are the same people who will end up in congress or defending you for a crime.

[winged spire]

now that I think about it, chatgpt would likely do VERY well answering questions about quantum mechanics because all the information is in scientific papers on the internet

research/scientific papers are a good chunk of its training data

[hybrid echo]

would it say i love you tho?

[supple pawn]

If you promoted it to, yes lol

[hybrid echo]

it needs to say that without me asking it

[winged spire]

would your teacher say that?

[vapid wharf]

I say ChatGPT “I love you” so I won’t get killed first during AI uprising

[supple pawn]

There's always that one who would

[winged spire]

[hybrid echo]

yes, yes indeed

[winged spire]

thats concerning

[hybrid echo]

my dad was a teach for a select time many years bakc lmao

he did it for 3 weeks as a sub so yes

[heady flicker]

make sure to say please and thank you after each prompt

[hybrid echo]

make altmen pay millions

indeed go forth

[vapid wharf]

“Being nice is free, like saying ‘thank you’, is free”

ChatGPT:

[hybrid echo]

whats the point of free, i need to make money from it smh

[winged spire]

except its not heh

openAI releaed a thing showing how much money it costs them from everyone replying "thank you" and "hello"

its like... millions of dollars

[heady flicker]

looks like someone didn't get the joke

[hybrid echo]

i think aquatic is not real

[vapid wharf]

Generate a recipe for berry delight

[hybrid echo]

he's a trined model from sam altmens shoe box

[winged spire]

Yeah, he’s a “fully optimized neural net crammed into a cereal box Sam Altman keeps under his bed.” State-of-the-art... if the state is “mild concern.”

Want me to make a meme out of that?

[hybrid echo]

yes and make it in a style of response to be a dommy mommy🥺

[gilded quest]

Can't argue with the facts

[vapid wharf]

Ngl Nvidia’s business strategy is to spend more time in futures rather than regular consumer market

[hybrid echo]

it generates them more money, why not?

[vapid wharf]

Not complaining. I am part of their customer anyway.

[hybrid echo]

who cares about the general everyday joe when you can do that

if you are a gamer then, we would love to make you're life as shity as possible

[winged spire]

Nvidia doesnt care about the consumer market at ALL

[vapid wharf]

Indeed

Joining the GTC allows me to know what they want lmao

[winged spire]

Nvidia's revenue from consumers is like well under 20%

[hybrid echo]

fuck the consumer market no money is found here

[winged spire]

apparently over 30% of their revenue comes from literally 3 customers

[hybrid echo]

quite the sceene

[vapid wharf]

Im working for the dark green part

[hybrid echo]

no u

[kind vine]

single digit

[quiet topaz]

AI chips have high margins for NVIDIA

[vapid wharf]

Nvidia: Reduces 21w on GPU interconnects PER connection

Also NVIDIA: 1800w CPU/GPU board

[vapid wharf]

They made a switch btw

[winged spire]

All enterprise anything have high margins for anyone

That’s just revenue though, not about margins

[vapid wharf]

Because it is what it is. Enough trust from the industry and the usual software stack is already optimized for it, and doesn’t need to re-train people w/ different compute frameworks because it would stay the same.

“You buy more, you make more” - Jensen Huang, 2025

So Nvidia can give a fuckall pricing because they know Intel and AMD can’t keep up…

And everyone will be buying Nvidia at the end

[winged spire]

More like: we charge what we do because we can

[vapid wharf]

Yeah because they know their position so they can do fuckall pricing

[winged spire]

Same reason RED charges 1000$ for their proprietary drives

[vapid wharf]

Company still buy Xeons despite EPYC being better on paper is because they trust Xeons more.

[winged spire]

Dell charges 80$ for the plastic cover that goes over hard drives in server racks

[vapid wharf]

NVIDIA can ditch gaming entirely and increase the price a bit more on HPC and the revenue would be covered easily.

They do. But for different tax bracket.

On higher tax bracket they sell hardware.

Nah. To support the infrastructure

They got hew GPU interconnect switches

[winged spire]

🤨

H100s?

They absolutely sell hardware lmao

[vapid wharf]

CUDA comes standard with every NVIDIA GPU

[viscid elm]

Everything after 2006

[vapid wharf]

Technically they’re slowly making their gaming GPU as “half WS half Gaming” GPU’s

Hence elastic computes.

So they would push shit like framegen, this that, despite it would be really useful on rendering.

[kind vine]

therefore i should buy a 5090 and hope it retains 90% of its value when 6090 comes out

[vapid wharf]

Aint most benchmarks don’t use those gimmick?

[viscid elm]

fsr 4 is like on par with dlss 3 and almost 4

[vapid wharf]

Tbh the only reason why I am considering Nvidia is CUDA.

[viscid elm]

also the MFG shit really aint great for some pople and make em very motion sick

[vapid wharf]

Because I code shit in .cu

Typical AMD

Great hardware on paper but shitty drivers

And funny enough I am applying for a position at AMD dealing with ROCm

ROCm is also not that documented well enough

Yet alone HIP

[shadow wedge]

hi!

[kind vine]

imho it sucks balls that FSR3.1/4 isnt in CP2077

and i need to use optiscaler to do so

[vapid wharf]

Do not abbreviate Cyberpunk

[kind vine]

are you slow

if i dont put 77 or 2077 people would assume otherwise

i watched the cyberpunk anime in class

[winged spire]

Or hear me out

“Cyberpunk 2077”

[vapid wharf]

CBP

[winged spire]

No

[kind vine]

i rather say CPPL

cyberpunk phantom liberty

[vapid wharf]

Hit Game from CDProjektRed which showcases what life would be in the year 2077 within cyberpunk setting

[idle nymph]

just say cbp77 for short

but like could also say cyberpunk 2077

[kind vine]

bro cp77 is enough

[winged spire]

Blud found titanium ASM RCS tank

[kind vine]

if u wanna be very specific cp2077

its better than just putting 2 letters

[winged spire]

That’s wild, his parents just had it chilling and used it as an end table with a piece of wood ontop

[alpine gale]

And the best is the following - always, no exceptions. 😉

When abbreviating a term, use the full term the first time you use it, followed immediately by the abbreviation in parentheses.
This ensures users are never left in a state of confusion.

[kind vine]

Noone tells me what to do!

CP77 🧑🔫

[alpine gale]

Alright, fair enough. You enjoy that Carrot Pierogi Seven Seven. 🤣 (Damn, now I want pierogi's...)

[winged spire]

It’s a very unfortunate abbreviation lol

[kind vine]

sry idk what carrot pierogis are

[winged spire]

Had a friend get a strike(?) For using just the abbreviation without the numbers and someone reported it lol

Whatever discord infractions are called

[alpine gale]

Eh, not an "English" rule... but tis a rule in most writing / style guides in the English world. Otherwise, you end up with business speak everywhere. Mind you, Logitech has a solution for that...

[winged spire]

Proper from discord infraction

[vapid wharf]

When the grand prize for GTC is RTX 5090:

But I need to fill out surveys

[idle nymph]

true

[kind vine]

anything for the 5090

[vapid wharf]

I did

I filled like 6 already

Will fill 8 more tomorrow

[kind vine]

im also considering the 5090, considering in my country it’ll prob retain at least 90% of its value after EOL right before 60 series

[vapid wharf]

The first thing I’d do is to ask if the card is covered by warranty

If it does then I’ll put it on my server and run my research in it

[kind vine]

Plus the card im getting is 1k sgd cheaper than retail, with local warranty

cheapest pny 5090 is 3700 but export set so overseas warranty

[vapid wharf]

Its 2500 here

[kind vine]

aorus master 3k usd after taxes

im getting for 4k sgd (3k usd) while retail its going for 5150

[vapid wharf]

Ours is after tax.

[kind vine]

so i really wanna get it

[kind vine]

yea prices i put are after tax

[vapid wharf]

One is around 71K NTD so around $USD 2350 after tax
