Idk what a pfp is gonna do ngl

[crystal pike]

Clippy as a pfp is not gunna do shit

goodluck tho

[sharp lynx]

i mean even if it doesnt do anything in the long run i like clippy so

[crystal pike]

I love Winston blues so

Same thing i guess

[pallid falcon]

Thsts like me liking slugcats so i tell u that you should change it to a slugcat

First thing that comes to mind when I see a clippy pfp is "lol nerd"

[sharp lynx]

i wasnt even saying that other people should change their profile pics to clippy regardless if it was for the protest or cuz i like it lol

[viscid elm]

protest by changing a PFP is dumb

[sharp lynx]

i just figured its a noble cause even if it doesnt realistically change anything, prob is more effective on something more public like youtube if at all, but hey if its an excuse to change my profile pic to something i like cuz variety is nice, then screw it lol i like clippy

[viscid elm]

noble

[crystal pike]

freedom of speech was a huge mistake

[pallid falcon]

Noble is like protesting with wallet or letting them know on social media

Or maybe writing them a snailmail for them to ignore

[sharp lynx]

i mean maybe noble wasnt the right word but yknow what i mean

[viscid elm]

letting them know how to improve is noble

[sharp lynx]

true ye

im gunna go back to ripping my CDs lol

[pallid falcon]

All that protest gonna do is make people think theyte a retro nerd

[viscid elm]

use ARM

[sharp lynx]

whats ARM? im using EAC

[viscid elm]

automatic ripping machine

[plain gale]

does it involve a massive emp?

if yes, ive already pitched that

[viscid elm]

well im not sure about one

[sharp lynx]

i am interested

oh do i need to have MakeMKV activated to use ARM or does it have MakeMKV kinda built in?

[viscid elm]

i think its built in but im not sure

[weak willow]

no it's something so simple i wonder why people havent thought about it yet.

i ran it through gpt, claude and grok, told them to rip my idea apart, none of them could do it

[sharp lynx]

gotcha. i see it mentions docker containers too so either it does have it built in and makes its own docker containers or this is more meant to be ran on a system designed to be a home server

[plain gale]

imma just guess that people already thought of it but its simply not practically doable

[runic gust]

hallo

[desert dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/laughing-hard-lol-lmao-oh-wait-youre-serious-let-me-laugh-even-harder-gif-16553942

[weak willow]

no it's doable, it's literally a physical keypad. the idea is in the language, sry i cant give away more, it's my IP

if Linus doesnt take my up offer, I'll start my own company and do it myself, shrugs

[sharp lynx]

wait

run us through the process here, without revealing personal info

[weak willow]

i dont care about personal info, i want to profit off it

im willing to put my money where my mouth is, im just thinking it would be easier to collab

[sharp lynx]

i mean fair enough, but transparency is also good. i think a lot of people would be happy knowing how something works, then giving the creator money. even if its just a basic rundown or a tldr of what your idea is im sure thatll be good for a few people

idk, what do u guys think

[weak willow]

cybersecurity is just complexity layered on a simple premise, that humans cannot remember strong passwords, agree?

[pallid falcon]

Yea also ive seen a lot of "this does not exist someone wanna go in on it with me" stuff so if u dont say what it is then its hard to care

[sharp lynx]

also can i request a nickname change, i want it to be
<-- *doesnt know

[sharp lynx]

sure, thats why a lot of people like password managers for instance

[pallid falcon]

They dint allow it, im stuck with a dead name here forever </3

[sharp lynx]

ah shiiiiiit

[weak willow]

and im saying, i know how to design a password that is 100+ bits and yet, easily remembered by any reasonable human

[sharp lynx]

maybe ill just throw it in my server specific bio then lol

[desert dagger]

I believe I have solved cybersecurity
Okay so how does that for example solve session hijacking?

[sharp lynx]

so like, an encrypted password where the passkey is the simple password that only the user knows?

[pallid falcon]

Not using internet

[weak willow]

yes, quite simple in its essence

[desert dagger]

So...like a normal password where the encrypted password is not stored in cleartext in the authentication databse or whatever you want to call it?...

[weak willow]

if you can crack that password in real time, you win. but not even a supercomputer can. that's the point

so something like this zJ8$7&k*Lq#9 takes years to crack, but no human can memorize this

[desert dagger]

...Yeaaah and thats usually how credentials are stored on the server side

[sharp lynx]

so im gunna throw an idea out here and see if im kinda understanding what youre laying down here, so you have a numpad or something that stores encrypted passwords or something, and to enter a password for a site you enter a passphrase like 123456 and it decrypts the password or something?

[desert dagger]

as in.. encrypted, and not in cleartext.. encryption might vary

[weak willow]

no decryption, only your memory. you are the password

[viscid elm]

keylogger
kinda any info stealer on the planet

[weak willow]

ah i cant explain anymore, i need to meet in person to ensure i can trust him

[pallid falcon]

Could we gaslight a ai into doing it by doing thinking code execution (ex grok)

[desert dagger]

This all feels like reinventing the wheel, and then for the example i brought up session hijacking, this would not really do anything on that

[weak willow]

i am the wheel. no reinvention. completely original.

this is not ego, i ran through gpt, claude and grok for like 10 hours each

they cant break it

[desert dagger]

Okay and gpt, claude and grok are useless for this

And more and more services are moving to passkey based solutions

[weak willow]

so either im a genius or im dumb af

[viscid elm]

.xyz is a good domain

[desert dagger]

probably the latter

[sharp lynx]

yeah like arent chatgpt and these other chatbots more designed for quick responses rather than lengthy trial and error stuff?

[pallid falcon]

.gay is good too

[weak willow]

i could release this whole concept and crash crypto right now, but i need to hold my guns a bit until im ready

[viscid elm]

my ISP does not think xyz is good

[weak willow]

if i start my own company i gotta buy materials, design, and start production...what a pain

[pallid falcon]

</3 my bios site is hosted there

[sharp lynx]

can you access iflash.xyz? (for anyone wondering this is a website that sells upgrade parts for iPod Classics)

[civic fox]

yea that site works

[desert dagger]

..How the fuck would this even crash crypto? I mean all in all what you have described is standard password encryption - which does not solve "all cybersecurity issues" as passwords is just one minor part in everything

[viscid elm]

WHAT IS THIS SHIT

[sharp lynx]

youre talking a big game here. i like ambition as much as the next guy but your sales pitch needs to be strong. im just not really understanding what youre selling here, it sounds like a hardware keypad that enters an encrypted password when you enter a simple one, or whatever the case may be

[viscid elm]

so they on purpose blocked HACS

[sharp lynx]

remind me what HACS is again?

[weak willow]

thanks for all your input, i appreciate it

[viscid elm]

when i use a vpn i can see this https://data-v2.hacs.xyz/integration/data.json

[pallid falcon]

Can does my xyz site work:

http://slugcatpilot.xyz.local
/s

[viscid elm]

Home Assistant Community Store

[sharp lynx]

also yeah the stuff these guys sell is meant to replace the mechanical hard drive in an iPod Classic, so turn a bunch of SD cards into the hard drive to give you more storage, which is also more rugged by nature

[viscid elm]

https://tenor.com/view/dankpods-gif-21161250

[sharp lynx]

gunna look that up brb

[desert dagger]

My guess is that your ISP's DNS server might be the asshat here

[viscid elm]

I KNOW IT IS

[desert dagger]

Then configure a different one

[viscid elm]

i cant do shit

[viscid elm]

that could take weeks

[desert dagger]

..Change it on your laptop/phone/pc settings to something else?

takes like a minute or two at most to go in and change to 1.1.1.1 (for example)

[viscid elm]

you said ISP

no shit have i already changed DNS

[desert dagger]

Yeaaah.. and if you configure a static DNS on your device it ignores your ISPs DNS.

Then not a DNS block, that is more intruiging, and fun, and annoying.

[viscid elm]

😐

no wait

[desert dagger]

and what is the DNS configured on the router at 192.168.50.1

(nice range, same I got at home)

[viscid elm]

the router should be using cloud

[sharp lynx]

oh so HACS is basically a ricing store for home assistant?

or am i missing something

[viscid elm]

ricing?

[desert dagger]

thats the way I am seeing it, and looks like the ISP is preventing access, I suspect might be due to the xyz domain

[viscid elm]

.

[sharp lynx]

like linux ricing, customizing a user interface with themes n stuff

[desert dagger]

I guess one interesting thing would be to see what the CMD says when running a nslookup data-v2.hacs.xyz

[viscid elm]

HACS is more like a different store front for stuff, it also allows for way better services most times

[desert dagger]

OOoooooooooooooooooh ohohoh.. bad ISP.

[viscid elm]

works fine with a vpn

[desert dagger]

yeah the ISP is certainly doing some f---ery there

[sharp lynx]

i think i understand, the reddit comment that Brave brought up gives me the impression that its more like a place to more easily find plugins for certain devices instead of manually making your own

[sharp lynx]

ive never heard of telenor

[desert dagger]

quite big in northern europe at least, used to have them as my ISP

[viscid elm]

Norwegian

and they suck

[sharp lynx]

ah. ye im an uninformed canadian lol

well, freshly informed canadian

[desert dagger]

Yeah reading the norwegian subreddit, there the suggesstion was as well to change DNS to prevent the Telenor Nettvern but thats obviously not working..

[viscid elm]

yesterday the server i had worked fine but now on the new thingy it does not

[desert dagger]

looks like you might be able to deactivate that shit there?..

[viscid elm]

not my interne, landlords

[desert dagger]

doh

[sharp lynx]

how im glad my ipad has translation lol

[desert dagger]

im glad im swedish..basically same language.

it'd be worse if sim was danish

[viscid elm]

xd

[sharp lynx]

pewdiepie ftw lol

oh damn i cant translate norwegian directly, google translate time lol

[viscid elm]

bit annoying i cant access HACS docs without using a vpn

[desert dagger]

im genuinely surprised DNS change didnt prevent that but they might do some dpi or some shit.. Or if you enable like DNS over TLS/HTTPS to encrypt the dns lookups - but if they are blocking the end addresses then yeah

[viscid elm]

i am trying to VPN the whole thing

[sharp lynx]

seems like a lot of things soon are gunna need a VPN or even a tor browser soon, its rough out there eh

[onyx walrus]

Hi

[sharp lynx]

Does any one of u guys why floatplane needs permission to join servers for me? I know that this perm is used by a lot of shady servers for them to get back on track if their server gets deleted but I dont see any reason that floatplane would need that.

[split swift]

Its just for it to verify that you have an active subscription so you can have ur floatplane role

[unkempt spruce]

should just the first perm pass discord user id?

[split swift]

Nope

[unkempt spruce]

[keen cedar]

Yes

[restive lion]

Yeah there's no reason for it to have that perm

I removed that perm from the auth url and it still worked fine

[restive lion]

(Also yes it does)

They really need to remove the guilds.join perm entirely, I have yet to see a valid use case for it in the wild

Just left of that I have my soldering set up and I use those with alcohol to clean stuff

It’s just incredibly messy right now

[sharp lynx]

[unreal whale]

I used to do that, but I worried about if it would damage my headband

[sharp lynx]

Yeah fair, I only do it cuz the headband is removable on mine and prob replaceable

[vapid smelt]

What's up with the qtips

Oh nvm

[vapid smelt]

Qtips don't go in ears

[unreal whale]

Don’t they like push the wax more into your ear?

Like actual long-term damage

[vapid smelt]

Yes

[sharp lynx]

I should get a waxvac...

(As seen on tv )

[unreal whale]

or use hydrogen peroxide

[sharp lynx]

Use huh?

[unreal whale]

Just dump it in with your head tilted

[vapid smelt]

I use the shower water

[keen cedar]

I use my finger

[sharp lynx]

Why do I feel like that would cause long term damage as well lmao

[sharp lynx]

You gargle it??

[vapid smelt]

No soap holder smh

[unreal whale]

It also cleans cuts without the stinging of alcohol as well as kickstarts the healing process

[unreal whale]

thats fast orange, my main soap to the right

I usually keep it downstairs, it’s used for heavy duty applications like getting car grease off my hands

Or sap if I’m cutting down trees and stuff

[sharp lynx]

Hydrogen peroxide sounds like one of those chemicals that needs to be locked away from children lol. I've only heard about people using it to retrobrite old UV stained electronic housings

https://healthcare.utah.edu/the-scope/health-library/all/2023/04/should-you-use-hydrogen-peroxide-clean-wound it destroys your healthy tissue

[sharp lynx]

Aha. Yeah it's good in a pinch but not prolonged

[unreal whale]

Skimming through that, it’s recommending me to wash with tapwater for 5 to 10 minutes

I ain’t doing all that

[vapid smelt]

If I get a big cut I'm using peroxide, small ones I will wash

[unreal whale]

Better than using this

[vapid smelt]

A user snail in here used it on his head wound a few times and his doctor wasn't happy

[sharp lynx]

I used some pure iso alcohol to clean off an Xbox one s that had been drawn on with a pen and left to rot in a moldy house that was ready to fall apart

[unreal whale]

It’s pretty useful that’s why I have it

[winged spire]

Hydrogen peroxide does not kickstart the healing process

If anything it slows it down

[unreal whale]

oh mb

[sharp lynx]

Electrical tape I find helps with getting cuts to heal lol

[unreal whale]

A special type of superglue is used quite often in medical settings

to close cuts

[sharp lynx]

Either you sweat and the sweat helps bond the skin together or there's something about the tape that helps speed things up

[winged spire]

Having a closed wound is better than an open one lol

[unreal whale]

behold

[winged spire]

What printers you got

[fossil frost]

medical glue is generally just CA. theres nothing special about it

[unreal whale]

this old thing

[winged spire]

It’s gonna dry slower

Cure slower

[vapid smelt]

They used it in Vietnam

[winged spire]

Pure CA can and will give you like flash burns

[unreal whale]

To my understanding, normal superglue breaks down in the body tissues quicker and can release toxic compounds into your bloodstream

[winged spire]

It will cure so fast it will easily burn you

[unreal whale]

Yes, it works in an emergency, but not recommended

[winged spire]

Normal superglue isn’t pure CA either

[fossil frost]

normal superglue is CA with loads of additives

[unreal whale]

i just need some sugar now

[winged spire]

Ca is super liquidy

Not ideal for most gluing applications

It’s thinner than water

[warped burrow]

tbf by the time I upgrade my hardware a clean install would be better choice

[fossil frost]

rtings doesnt just say "buy these, these are ok"... they provide the data to show why they believe they are "ok" or "shit" or "the best", and explain that their review is highly subjective, which is why they show the data, so you can choose what sort of sound profile you like, and choose based on that.. they literally make it up to you

Considering my pc turns a year old next year in how many years should I upgrade

[fossil frost]

[fossil frost]

you upgrade when the current pc doesnt do what you need it to do.. there is no time limit on it

[warped burrow]

hmm so how long do u think my current pc can do 1440p ultrawide in high to ultra settings

leme send specs

[vapid smelt]

A US astronaut had a longer obituary on British tv then the fuckin queen?

[fossil frost]

no idea, and i dont care... when YOU find that it doesnt do what YOU want it to do, then YOU spend YOUR money to upgrade YOUR pc 🙂

[fossil frost]

the initial one for the queen was more or less "queen ded... more at 10"

[warped burrow]

jit doesn't wanna give me his tech tip

I know I know I'm just asking when u think it will stop doing that well in what I need

my specs are....

[fossil frost]

there is no time limit on that, only you can judge that

[pulsar tartan]

I'm watching the moca video
And How would you hook up a Wi-Fi router if you get wifi through coax

[vapid smelt]

Freeze then shatter

[alpine gale]

Huh? By definition, Coax doesn't deliver "WiFi" ... If you head over to #networking and explain what you're trying to achieve, along with the make and model of all your existing network hardware, we might be able to help. 🙂

[pulsar tartan]

The coax goes into the router and the router doesn't work without it.

[alpine gale]

Ah righto, so the coax delivers a wired signal to your modem / router combo unit, and then that unit likely has 4x Ethernet ports and a Wireless Access Point inside it. The coax itself doesn't deliver WiFi - it delivers an "internet" signal, which is then converted to Wired and WiFi connections by the modem.

What are you trying to do with MoCA adapters then? Get wired internet to another room in your house?

[pulsar tartan]

I have a room with poor internet. And i'm trying to get a good wired connection without running long ethernet cords

[alpine gale]

Gotcha. Then yeah, your options to get a wired connection into a room without running ethernet are a) MoCA adapters (you need one for each end) or b) Powerline AV adapters (depends on your household electrical circuitry - sometimes these work great, other times they're terrible.)

[pulsar tartan]

What dose a poe moca benefit

[alpine gale]

PoE and MoCA are 2 different technologies for different purposes. PoE delivers Power over Ethernet for devices that can use this (security cameras, some network switches, doorbells, etc.) What product are you looking at?

[high yarrow]

depending some VST's require cuda , (luckaly not allot) but since FL studio itslef is graphically accelerated and to get lteh lowest latencies on your audio yo probably gonna wanna relief your CPU from as much as work as possible, but that said a 3060ti will do equally wel as a 5090 for that purpose , even the intel what are they called battlemage , or so are more than adequate

[pulsar tartan]

PPC SNLP-1GCW MoCA 'POE' Coax Filter

[alpine gale]

Oh that's just a MoCA filter. You need to install one of these on the Coax cable that enters your home if you plan to use MoCA in your home. Otherwise, your MoCA signals can leak out onto the rest of the Coax plant network along your street, at least until your ISP sends a tech to physically cut off your service.

[winged spire]

There was a spider inside my EV charging cable so I fried that little bastard at 400v 250a for 15 minutes

[high yarrow]

maybe is fiber an option?

[high yarrow]

ow needed to be this

[pulsar tartan]

@alpine gale How would I set up fiber? And is that even a good option for me i just need a simple fix.

[alpine gale]

You would run a fiber cable between the rooms, same as Ethernet. 🙂 So um. If you can't run ethernet... running Fiber is right out. Also, depending on how far away the room is, running Fiber may be more expensive than ethernet.

[high yarrow]

just point to point connection with a fiber wire between it , only sugested it since unlike long ethernet cables what you were avoiding , lenght ahs much less impact on fiberoptic

[pulsar tartan]

You're right I think i'm good with moca. And ethernet wasn't a option because I have to run it through multiple floors

And it sounds the same with fiber @high yarrow @alpine gale ( am I using the @ system right)

[neon bloom]

Sadly I am being reminded that I need to re-run ethernet across my house..

[pulsar tartan]

I heard mocas good option these days

[neon bloom]

I don't really have coaxial connections in my house so.

[pulsar tartan]

My bad 👎

[shut lichen]

Good option? No. An option if you've got coax installed and don't want to run Ethernet? Sure

You should always run Ethernet if you can

[high yarrow]

my desktopis on wifi ,eg but my ethernet (beamer,nvidia shield tv, ...) are still 10/100mbit :p

coax token ring is also 10mbit :p

[frank geode]

It’s a good idea to run ethernet because mocha is actually way more expensive because the transceivers and receivers cost almost between $300-$400 per set and ethernet will probably cost around $100 to 200

hi

[winged spire]

1200 times?

[random jolt]

if u have the weather widget or local weather on it's gonna try to pull the local weather every time u move a good distance

but yeah 1200 seems a bit excessive lol

[shut lichen]

Once every 3.6 minutes on average to make sure it's showing the correct forecast

Probably because you've been constantly moving

[random jolt]

but u were on a p long drive so it sorta makes sense

[visual drift]

What a combo

[worldly sundial]

Thought Linus made scrapyard wars video public? Did it go private again?

[alpine gale]

It's public on Floatplane.

[worldly sundial]

Only floatplane? Ah thought that was the YT dashboard he was on. I unfortunately don't have a fp app for my TV.

You gotta be on an M4

M3 is acceptable

[steep swift]

G'day!

[cedar forge]

Oh look who we got here, an M1 apologist.

Oh I switched to M1 and I have been happy since!

[oak pier]

i have an m3… and that’s not exactly relevant…

[viscid elm]

i would argue its way easier to do fiber then ethernet as its way smaller

[alpine gale]

Except of course for the fact that one needs Fiber Transceivers, cause most consumers don't have any way to incorporate Fiber into their home network. It's not impossible, but definitely not as "easy" or simple as stapling / affixing a 50ft ethernet cable along the baseboards. Definitely way cleaner looking though.

[viscid elm]

fiber 10gig is cheaper then rj45

well sfp+

also that cable is single mode

[alpine gale]

If only most consumer grade modems / routers came with SFP+ ports. 🤔

[viscid elm]

some do

[alpine gale]

I wish more did, but given how long it's taken to see 2.5Gig ports on these devices, I'm not holding my breath.

(SFP+ is a big reason I want to move to Ubiquiti gear, along with the management side of things.)

[viscid elm]

ubiquiti stuff is fine but ngl i almost feel like my old asus router was almost nicer at times

[alpine gale]

Simpler for sure. And sometimes simpler is better. I remember when I had the DD-WRT GUI memorized. That was my first foray into more advanced networking. Was sick to turn old routers into repeaters for zero $.

[viscid elm]

o well, i should print a ssd holder thingy for my UCG fiber

[alpine gale]

Oh Ubiquiti, if only you didn't want $30 for a $1 piece of plastic. 😄

[viscid elm]

ubiquiti is 100% overhyped

but at the same time im kinda the guy to flash custom firmware on stuff

[shut lichen]

All I want in life is to not have to be on a high priority business connection for $580nzd/month to get an SFP ont

Or even just have an ONT with SFP+ out

[heavy grotto]

Should I get Cyberpunk 2077 right now because it’s on a 65% discount on Steam. For two reasons, to play it and to test my new PC. Would it be good for testing an RX 9060 XT 16gb and would I be able to use up scaling and ray tracing?

[civic fox]

yes 100% buy it and DLC

yes and yes to both questions

[tender sphinx]

also you can just refund it

if you don't like it

[civic fox]

POV you install driver V590 and afterburner doesnt know what card it is

[heavy grotto]

Oh yeah true

And I would be able to use ray tracing and upscaling on my RX 9060 XT?

In Cyberpunk 2077

[chilly whale]

i need help like real bad, when i play games neither my gpu nor my cpu is used to a point where they are even near of maxxing out therefore i get low fps in like every game even cs2 and minecraft i have a Ryzen 7 5700G and a rx 6750xt, i was just playing battlefield 6 and my cpu was at 1.4GHz after i closed the game it went to 3GHz but its base speed is 3.8GHz an d its usually running at 4.2GHz pls some1 help

[civic fox]

should be able to yep

[heavy grotto]

Okay thanks. I reckon I’ll get it

But maybe tomorrow because it’s late for me

[tender sphinx]

are you sure it isn't just thermal throttling?

[chilly whale]

whats that?

i dont know much about computers

[tender sphinx]

just the computer sensing that the cpu or gpu is too hot so it basically craps out and goes at a slower speed to not kill itself

[chilly whale]

pretty sure thats not the issue my gpu rarely surpasses 65C

and i dont know how to see how hot my cpu is

its not shown in the task manager

[tender sphinx]

do you know resource monitor?

basically the same as task manager but just not updated

I think it has the temps?

[chilly whale]

let me check

[tender sphinx]

or not im not sure

[chilly whale]

my pc is idle rn and my gpu is at 25% and at 58C

my cpu went back to 4.2GHz and is at around 10%

[tender sphinx]

hm

Idk then, if you lower your settings to the absolute minimum in bf6 does it still crap out?

[chilly whale]

yes

also have the same issues on for example counterstrike and minecraft

i cant really play minecraft with shaders without using lossless scaling

[tender sphinx]

idk anymore

have you searched online yet?

[chilly whale]

ive asked on reddit but havent gotten any replies and i asked chatgpt but he also told me mostly nonsenseä

[tender sphinx]

how about just a normal google search, like a more general search like "my cpu gets bad performance under stress" or something like that

[chilly whale]

ill try that

how often should i change my thermal paste?

[tender sphinx]

I don't rlly know

but I change it like 1 time each month or so

just when my temps starts to get high

[chilly whale]

each month??

i havent changed it in 2 years lol,

[tender sphinx]

oh wait my bad I mean like every 5-7 months

I forgot to add that in lol

[chilly whale]

also im having the same issue on linux if this helps

[tender sphinx]

dual boot?

[chilly whale]

yes

but i had the same issue before having the dual boot

[tender sphinx]

if you can replace your thermal paste then you should but if not then maybe buy some, but your temps are normal it's just a good thing to do like after 2 years\

[chilly whale]

kk

[tender sphinx]

a google search shows that you should replace it every 2-3 years

what's the bread roll?

[fossil frost]

if your temps are within normal ranges, leave your paste as it is, because its clearly fine and clearly doing its job... needlessly taking your cooler off, and cleaning your CPU and cooler, which means taking the cpu out of the motherboard, is how you risk damaging your cpu and/or motherboard... so... unless you NEED to touch it... dont touch it

[tender sphinx]

at least it is easier to bend the pins back if it is on the cpu right? because it's using the AM4 socket

[rain linden]

It’s relatively easy. Not easy

[keen cedar]

If you aren’t an idiot(respectfully) you shouldn’t damage the socket or your cpu ever but shit happens

[rain linden]

If you fuck it up, it’s easier than getting a whole ass new cpu

[chilly whale]

Uhm so ive tested around a bit, my cpu had a max power draw of 24W and when in game it was at 14W im pretty sure thats like very low, also my cpu didnt get hotter than 50C probably due to it not getting enough power.
It also went down to 1.7GHz in game

[chilly whale]

i am refering to this message

[hot thistle]

Woah okay, checking the thermal paste probably made sense in that case. I saw the earlier messages about refreshing it every few months and thought y’all were absurd lol

[civic fox]

i did mine after 1 year

but thats because i replaced the cpu

[acoustic beacon]

So YT removed trending, however I'm using newpipe and the trending page that I added back has videos that are not even a day old. I thought it would keep the out of date page and not update? How is it doing this and can it be trusted to be accurate?

How much an old Macintosh go for? I don't know if it works but I'll ask, its one of the old ones that have the colored apple logo and the floppy disk drive. Comes with the original keyboard and speakers as well.

[oak pier]

go on ebay and find out

[alpine gale]

Impossible to say without more information. You can search used sites like Kijiji, used.ca, Craigslist, or eBay to compare prices.

[winged spire]

All the way in Thunder Bay now

[acoustic beacon]

I have the absolute worst service here, sorry I'll see if the pic sends. Wait no sorry some reason it won't let me send here.

[acoustic beacon]

How much should it go for?

[alpine gale]

Looks like an Apple II at first glance. Check the model number information on the stickers that should be on the rear or bottom of the computer. Then search eBay with that information.

[alpine gale]

Only those with roles can send photos here. See #welcome to get yourself a role. 🙂

[glass wraith]

Anyone close with someone in here that can help with my boot issue in tech support?

[acoustic beacon]

Its a display piece I touch it I by it (kinda mostly not touching it if I don't) they couldn't tell me if of works or not so its a gamble. I'm just wondering a minimum price it should go for in this condition and if they priced it right?

[acoustic beacon]

I'll do that later, right now I am maybe leaving with my family or maybe I'm buying stuff before I do? I asked a few servers so hopefully I can get some responses but do you have an idea?

[alpine gale]

Impossible for us to say without knowing exactly what it is. Could be worth -$100 if you have to pay to recycle it. Could be worth $1000. Could be worth more to the right person.

I would find out if it works and get the model number as mentioned before. If the seller isn't willing to get you either of these things, they're not worth talking to. You wouldn't / shouldn't purchase a vehicle based on sight alone, same goes for most other things in life, especially if they cost more than your disposable income.

[acoustic beacon]

I'm saying like online, what it might go for and if I'm getting a deal here? I get in the right collection to complete a set it be worth a lot to the right person.

[acoustic beacon]

I asked if it works and the staff person said she doesn't know. I asked if I could find out and one of them could plug it in, she said she wasn't sure if she could do that?

I could maybe ask a staff member if they can touch it to get a model number but its not the kinda thing one can just touch on display? Can you give a quick min max they have it for $185 idk if that's good?

My family wants to leave and this was one of the last rooms/things I saw on display so rip to that.

[alpine gale]

I've already given you everything I can regarding the value of the item. I need more information to determine if paying $185 is worth it.

[acoustic beacon]

I think its a to little to late kinda thing, my family is kinda leaving. Part of me hopes its not working and I didn't miss out on a good deal.

Unfortunately its one of the last things I saw and I don't just have time to get staff and all that involved, especially when the one person I talked to didn't know if it worked or if she could easily tell me that.

The collector in me wishes I got it. If it is working could I have missed out on a good deal?

Or are they cheaper then I would have thought?

[alpine gale]

https://www.reddit.com/r/applehelp/comments/ndbs4k/current_value_for_an_original_macintosh_computer/gyaq2qh/

[acoustic beacon]

Thanks I have like no service here worst case it probably went for $300 and I would have paid almost $200 for it but likely not. I thought original apple computers went for 500-1k but what do I know?

[alpine gale]

Lots of things on eBay are overpriced. As the Reddit comment points out, you'd want to look at listings for whatever that model of computer is that actually sold recently.

I've seen great deals on used Micro form factor Dell and Lenovo computers, and then I've seen listings that are completely overpriced for the hardware. One must put in a lot of time and effort to do this kind of thing. Tis why I only buy things I need, not things to collect. That, and storage space can get very expensive.

[pliant karma]

lol my macintosh SE sitting on my shelf on display. Surprised it hasn't yellowed

But I got the carrying pouch, keyboard, and mouse that came with it. Albeit the floppy drive is not working and from the looks it's got a ram upgrade.

[acoustic beacon]

I like to collect but not in the sense of I know what I want and I look for it. That gets time consuming or expensive fast (OK unless its ipod classics then that gets both fast for me) but if I come across stuff that's seem like they might be a deal that I'm interested in potentially I'd ask the internet and buy it if it is.

[fossil frost]

if only there were a site that you could compare more or less every cpu in existence, against any other cpu in existence... such as https://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleCompare.php and if only there was a way you could type that exact same thing into google and get several suggestions instead of being too lazy to do your own research

[fossil frost]

could not agree with this harder 😄 . my wife and kids use voice notes all the time, and expect that i can listen to them in any situation, in the office, at the doctors, in the middle of a crowded train, in the supermarket... just.... fucking.. type.... yes.. or... fucking.. no....

[strange elk]

Fuck telegram for making transcription a premium feature btw

Make them use futo keyboard or gboard so it types instead of records.. Or in the latter types and records

[fossil frost]

i just reply directly to the voice note with a typed out "no" 😄

[strange elk]

Lmao

[alpine gale]

If someone sends me a voice memo or video + audio trying to explain their problem / ask a question / communicate without this being previously arranged, I just ask them to type out their message... Like, yes, transcription would be nice, but it's not perfect and thus could misconstrue their message anyway. People need to send me written messages, or I just won't reply.

[fossil frost]

i accept transcribed voice notes from 2 people only, and that is my younger 2 of my 3 kids, and that is only when they are sending longer messages to me. and the middle of the 3 is being aged out of being allowed that soon 😄

[civic fox]

uh its looked like this for awhile. what does yours look like?

[fossil frost]

the icons seem bigger, and the time has a background to it on what im seeing

[civic fox]

oh yea thats wayyy different

[civic fox]

yours has seemingly been updated, because that is 100% some new ui youtube is testing out i guess.

[cinder thunder]

Can anyone here help me figure out which parts I need to buy for a good pc? Im thinking of selling my old one I build 5 years ago. Its got a ryzen 7 5700X3D, RTX 2060 Super from NVIDIA, 16 gb of RAM.

[fossil frost]

whats wrong with your current pc

[viscid elm]

why did you never upgrade the gpu or ram

[fossil frost]

im guessing because there was no need to do.. and im also gonna guess that after a line of questions, the answer to my question above, will be "nothing"

[remote heath]

how many members does this server have

[fossil frost]

i was gonna go with "why?" 😄

[viscid elm]

it takes seconds

[fossil frost]

my follow up after they answered "why" was gonna be "who cares"

[viscid elm]

[cinder thunder]

The cpu and motherboard are what I upgraded recently. The only issue I have is that I have an alienware m15 240hz 4k laptop and it runs minecraft way better than my pc but it has 3060. My monitor is 165hz 4k but it shouldn't look this shitty. I run like 130 fps in minecraft with the sodium mod. all the objects have rough edges and its not smooth, whereas on my laptop everything looks smooth and bright.

[fossil frost]

thats a problem with your settings, not your hardware

[safe bramble]

hi all

[cinder thunder]

Ive messed around w the settings a ton and It just looks bad

[fossil frost]

open minecraft on both, copy all settings to be the same on the one that looks good, to the one that looks bad.. and also make sure your nvidia control panel settings are the same

[cinder thunder]

There's always a dark line behind anything when I move my camera

Look at the clouds

[viscid elm]

so get a non shit gpu??????

[fossil frost]

still nothing to do with your hardware

[cinder thunder]

so my monitor

[viscid elm]

that is a monitor issue

called ghosting

[cinder thunder]

do any of you run a 240 hz 1080p monitor and are satisfied w it

[viscid elm]

i was and wanted to throw it out the window

now i am on 1440p qd-OLED

[cinder thunder]

what hz

[viscid elm]

what do you think

[cinder thunder]

dude idk the tech now. Ive never seen 240hz and high quality except on my laptop

[polar fern]

The video settings might be weird

[fossil frost]

your monitor will have a video mode, game mode and other various modes

game mode usually cranks the pixel response time, which should get rid of (much) of the ghosting

[viscid elm]

i am considering replacing the screen on my laptop with a 120hz one

but the laptop is so shit

[pliant karma]

For a second I though it was that hp laptop you got lol

[viscid elm]

dell

[viscid elm]

might be getting replaced by a HP :3

[pliant karma]

ah yess a dell.

My uncle replacing his dell with another dell.

[viscid elm]

6 bit plastic screen and a dgpu for a laptop with not the worst igpu

[pliant karma]

At least yours didn't give trackpad problems like my xps did

and overheat itself.

[stark idol]

Easy repair ??

[vapid smelt]

The track pad overheated and broke?

[viscid elm]

what gpu even is that

[stark idol]

1060 3gb (not worth repair)

[pliant karma]

xps trackpad QC problems and an i9 that could not be cooled by any means if I didn't step up to the bigger varient of the xps line.

Dell replaced it twice then gave up the third time.

Not to mention it cannot sleep anymore, just hibernate. Many times has it turned on and cooked itself in my backpack.

[viscid elm]

im gonna see how my surface is gonna act

[vapid smelt]

Give small mom and pop company dell a break they ain't a huge corporation like HP

[viscid elm]

monday and i get the surface

then the day after the HP 2 in 1

[echo sluice]

[pliant karma]

lots of laptops coming in I see.

[viscid elm]

well more like 1 tablet then one well uhhh kinda laptop thing

the HP already is gonna get a new fan and feet

well ok its on the way

in a week or two it will be getting that

[pliant karma]

lol looking through the recording on my race yesterday....the first couple of laps were a shitshow

fact I didn't hit the barrier surprised me.

[mystic tundra]

it’s called undershoot or overshoot / ghosting

the trail happens because the pixels are set to quickly change state/rotation and the panel’s crystals used aren’t very performant (don’t spin fast enough for the intended position) so manufacturers often give cheaper VA’s aggresive overdrive setting to make the monitor not have snail response and so they can advertise 1ms despite the monitor not scoring that in hands of reviewers that do proper testing which results in the crystals spinning a bit too much at first and then settling

@cinder thunder check your osd if it doesn’t offrer a “normal” , “basic” or “slow” overdrive setting

it may reduce the artifacts

[queen glen]

Is it me or am I the only one getting pissed by ai ads becoming more relevant

[mystic tundra]

but unfortunately it introduces other artifacts and slower pixel response

[mystic tundra]

ads generated by ai? please show me one good ad

[queen glen]

Nah just ai

In general, like co pilot or ai assisted apps

And talking about how great ai is

[mystic tundra]

I currently got an A1 with AMS

Was debating on getting the mini for a while tho

[somber pewter]

Nah, out of budget :/

I'm mostly going to use it for warhammer lol

[quartz maple]

It’s alright tbh, you can get it in the future when you want to do more advanced things

Your not missing out

[quartz maple]

That’s what my friend made me print when I first got mine

[somber pewter]

Might be stupid, but can't you just manually swap it?

[quartz maple]

Technically yeah but you gotta program it in the print some how

[somber pewter]

Haha, I heard from the 40k community that it's a common trend. One friend gets it and then everyone prints

[quartz maple]

Yup lol printed everyone a bunch of multi color dragons

I printed a water fountain lemme go find the vid

Best print so far

[somber pewter]

OO sounds interesting

[somber pewter]

That's sick!

[quartz maple]

Ima probably end up printing this tmw morning

[quartz maple]

Yeah dude Bambus are great

You made a good choice

[somber pewter]

I found a YouTube channel of a guy with an a1 mini printing 40k stuff

[quartz maple]

Sick! Are his files free?

[somber pewter]

Yea

He only has a couple of creators files that he doesn't share because they are friends with him

[winged spire]

FDM isn’t a great choice for miniatures

I would argue a bad choice

[quartz maple]

Makes sense

[somber pewter]

It's good enough lol

[winged spire]

MSLA is gonna be cheaper, several orders of magnitude more detailed (on the scale of tens of microns) and generally faster

[somber pewter]

I'm a beginner

[quartz maple]

Yeah definitely more than good enough for beginners

[somber pewter]

Mfw when the cheapest resin was double the price

[quartz maple]

Did you get any nozzles?

[winged spire]

Budget Resin printers are like 150-200

[somber pewter]

.2

And an extra .4 on accident

[winged spire]

You’re gonna wanna use pretty high quality filament for .2

[quartz maple]

Nice, I haven’t had the chance to use my .2 nozzle yet

[winged spire]

At that scale filament consistency is super important

[quartz maple]

Definitely

[somber pewter]

Great! Please consider I don't live in a mainstream market I am importing this printer

Also I don't have neither the space nor ventilation for a resin print

[winged spire]

Ok

[quartz maple]

I believe the .4 they sell is a better one than the one that comes with the printer so that’s good

[somber pewter]

Ah didn't know

[winged spire]

Nozzles are a consumable so having extras is good

[somber pewter]

I hate filament costs here

[quartz maple]

Yeah, also don’t bother getting the .6, it makes a %15 percent increase in print speed and is lowkey not worth it

[winged spire]

.6 is basically free speed tbh

[somber pewter]

It's 17 eur for the absolute cheapest filament

[winged spire]

For most things you’re not gonna see a quality difference

They’ll also increase strength

[somber pewter]

And like 30 eur for a roll of the good stuff

[winged spire]

Big nozzle = big strong

[quartz maple]

The filament price pill is hard to swallow 😭

Sometimes u just gotta press buy now and look away

[winged spire]

17 euro per kilo isn’t trrrible

Really anything under that is gonna be a budget brand

[somber pewter]

No no

That IS the budget brand

[quartz maple]

Overture and anycubic is the only ones I stick with tbh

Are those considered budget brand?

[somber pewter]

Ah I haven't linked my acc

[winged spire]

Yeah

[somber pewter]

Check off topic so I can send

(I fucking love protopasta)

It’s so expensive

[somber pewter]

I sent it in offtopic

[winged spire]

It’s like 50$ per kilo

[somber pewter]

The cheap filament I can get

[winged spire]

High temp PLA

[quartz maple]

The next brand I would try is bambu filament, I heard it’s high quality

[somber pewter]

And esun pla is twice this price

[winged spire]

It’s fine quality

Nothing great

On par

[quartz maple]

Do you have access to Amazon?

That’s where I get all my filament from and haven’t had trouble

[somber pewter]

Not really

[quartz maple]

No way..

[somber pewter]

I can order but I amazon boxes get commonly stolen at customs

[somber pewter]

Yea

[quartz maple]

Yeah I wouldn’t bother then..

Dang that sucks

[quartz maple]

Please please make sure to wash your build plate when you get your printer lol

The bambu subreddit is full of people asking why their print isn’t sticking to the plate

[somber pewter]

It's getting sent by truck to here

Was supposed to be on a suitcase via the friend that ordered it from me from the uk

[quartz maple]

That’s good, hopefully the mail people don’t drop kick it into your door😭🙏

[somber pewter]

But it doesn't fit by a cm

[quartz maple]

Dang lol

[somber pewter]

Yea

Btw

What material would I use to. Print something semi exposed to heat

[winged spire]

How much heat

[somber pewter]

I want to attach something on the plastic shroud of my cpu cooler

[winged spire]

Pla is fine upto like.. 45c

[somber pewter]

So I can attach a sideways fan to cool the vrms

[winged spire]

After 45-50 it starts to soften

PETG is probably your best bet

Pretty easy to print too

[somber pewter]

What else can I use petg for

[winged spire]

Everything

PETG is goated

[quartz maple]

Where are u putting the printer? PLA melts rather easily but the fumes are safe in a ventilated area, petg fumes are way worse

[winged spire]

It’s WAY more impact resistant than PLA

[quartz maple]

PETG is the better option

[winged spire]

it’s more uv resistant, it’s “slicker”

[quartz maple]

But depends on how ventilated your area is bc it isn’t as safe as PLA

[winged spire]

It’s about as safe

PETG and pla are going to be about the same

[somber pewter]

Uh idk

[winged spire]

Pla fumes are actually MORE dangerous than abs fumes, but it just produces much lower amounts than abs does

[quartz maple]

I read something about fumes from filaments, I might be mistaken tbh

[quartz maple]

I meant ABS

[somber pewter]

I can put it on my desk now, but in a couple of months I'm going to get a new monitor so there's not going to be space on my xesk

[quartz maple]

sorry yeah you should be fine with petg

[winged spire]

Abs fumes are more annoying than anything else

[somber pewter]

And my desk is right next to a window

[winged spire]

ABS Smells like ass but as long as you’re not in a sealed box you should be fine

[quartz maple]

I don’t believe the A1 series can even print ABS lol so he should be good

[winged spire]

Is it not an all metal hotend?

[quartz maple]

It is

[winged spire]

Then it should be able to

Just slap a cardboard box over it

[quartz maple]

Doesn’t it need a heated chamber?

[winged spire]

No

just any enclosure

[somber pewter]

I was planning on using a bucket

As an enclosure

[winged spire]

That works I guess lol

[quartz maple]

Oh god lol creative tho

[somber pewter]

https://tenor.com/view/this-is-a-bucket-team-fortress-tf-gif-15812649

Fuck embed fail

[quartz maple]

im about to try this on my A1 ill let you know how it sounds

[quartz maple]

https://tenor.com/view/this-is-a-bucket-team-fortress-tf-gif-15812649

[somber pewter]

I don't want to make an ltt forum acc I'm too lazy ah

[quartz maple]

defo read the bambu reddit, you be more prepared for when your printer comes

[somber pewter]

I have joined it

Doe most people have way more highend printers lll

Lol*

[quartz maple]

yeah lol thats kinda true for mini but the problems are all universal in some way

thers alot of blob posts on there

which you just avoid by always watching your first layer lol

[somber pewter]

I'm scared of how expensive pla is

[somber pewter]

Lol

[quartz maple]

The one of the left just accepted his fate

Ik it’s a animal dryer but I can’t think of any pet that wouldn’t freak out being stuck in there

Way too small

[iron summit]

I don’t think they are meant for 2 cats

[quartz maple]

Yeah also that

[iron summit]

The pro groomers have bigger ones too

[tulip oak]

Goodnight @quartz maple

[quartz maple]

Goodnight @tulip oak

[tulip oak]

I went to every discord server I'm part of and said goodnight to only one person onto it

[quartz maple]

Let’s go I’m the lucky one

[tulip oak]

The A220 stuck out

[fierce cedar]

fellas

i have lost my screwdriver

[heady flicker]

coin

[winged spire]

Good chance to buy the clear one now

[fierce cedar]

it's not affordable to me right now

and i'd rather just not buy another one

i do technically have another one, but it's not one that can be used

https://i.imgur.com/igqf3qN.png

it has dans signature, or mark or whatever he signed on it

[quartz maple]

howd you get that...

id clearcoat it and use it at least tho

[winged spire]

Bruh

I was driving through Winnipeg and all the sudden everyone on this 4 lane highway started merging into a single line and I was like wtf is going on

It’s a DUI checkpoint I guess

Also Winnipeg drivers are some of the worst I’ve ever seen

[fierce cedar]

dan week floatplane giveaway

anyways my wife found the damn thing within 5 minutes of me telling her how i can't find the thing. it was behind the living room tv. i don't know why it would have been, but that's where it was

i've been searching all day.

[random jolt]

anyone know if u can use the built in storage on the ucg max as a local file storage server?

[forest remnant]

printed a new top panel for my case, I'd like some feedback while it's still PLA

[fresh sorrel]

It’s nice! Make sure you figure out how you’re going to attach a mesh to prevent dust though

[forest remnant]

It's exhaust only and the case didn't come with a top mesh lol, I'll see about buying some mesh soon

[stark idol]

I’d go ironed instead of fuzzy ngl

[forest remnant]

that's just my pei plate, can't do much about it

[stark idol]

Oh tragic

[forest remnant]

I was hoping the hilbert curve pattern would show up in the bottom layer but it doesn't

[stark idol]

It looks thin as well but since it’s just a pc top it should be fine

What material are you going to print it in after pla

[forest remnant]

same thickness as the original and yea it handles no weight

[shut lichen]

Pattern seems to big, potentially blocking airflow too much

[forest remnant]

uhhh I have literally nothing but high grade engineering filaments so, either pa6 or pps

[stark idol]

Oh wow

[forest remnant]

oh that's an interesting one, currently the shortest distance between each triangle is 3mm so halfving the size isn't too big an issue, I didn't know having too big of holes would be a problem

[shut lichen]

Technically the holes being big isn't the issue, it's the not-hole bits being too big that might

[stark idol]

A stress test with and without the plate would show

[forest remnant]

I mean the original looks like this

[fresh sorrel]

The solid parts of it make up the same shape rotated, try cutting it out see if it looks cool

[forest remnant]

well the cpu was always going to try to hit the 95c temp target but the gpu dropped 3c between the original plate and the printed one

[strange quiver]

I’m getting a 5070 this thursday!!!!

For comparison i’ve had a 2070 for 4 years

[forest remnant]

minor upgrade

[strange quiver]

i hope the upgrade will be pretty noticeable l

[strange quiver]

??

[forest remnant]

(that was a joke)

[strange quiver]

oh 😭

i’m doing it cause my 2070 wasn’t running half life alyx 😭

[forest remnant]

oh I have that in the pattern already I made those solid for structural reasons but now I'm looking at it and it seems like an irrelevant issue so

[fresh sorrel]

Oo

[forest remnant]

I'll keep the pattern the same size but add the holes back in

[strange quiver]

i didn’t think of if it would fit or not!!!

well it’s being delivered Thursday. if it doesn’t fit then goodbye 600 bucks 😪

[alpine gale]

Why "goodbye 600 bucks" ? If it doesn't fit, just return it.

[strange quiver]

Cause imma throw it out the window and hit it with a hammer if it doesn’t work

[alpine gale]

https://tenor.com/view/why-huh-but-why-gif-13199396

[strange quiver]

or maybe i’d get so attached to it that i would never wanna return it. So we get married and have a family together

Until I start cheating on it with the 7090 three years later

[forest remnant]

just get a pcie riser and run it outside the case like life support

[oak pier]

the hammer is for making threats, not for actually hitting stuff

[strange quiver]

ahhhh smart

[oak pier]

(i keep a hammer ontop of my rack to keep the servers in line)

[forest remnant]

I have a small hammer named "hard reset"

[strange quiver]

ohhhh….. could have told me that with my old pc after the counter strike game i played

[oak pier]

works 100% of the time until it doesn’t

[strange quiver]

Is the 5070 pretty similar in size to the 2070 super?

[oak pier]

no

[strange quiver]

oh…

[oak pier]

well, depends on model, but generally no

[strange quiver]

i might regret buying it……

[oak pier]

the 5070 will be quite a bit bigger than a 2070

[strange quiver]

ohhh shoot….

[strange quiver]

my pc is prebuilt cause i got it when i was like 13

[oak pier]

did you not check compatibility before hitting “pay now” on a 600usd purchase?

[strange quiver]

yeah i didn’t

[oak pier]

i wish i had enough money to be that careless

[strange quiver]

😭😭

i have an omen 875. someone check 😭😭

i can’t find the size of it

[oak pier]

take a tape measure and see how long of a gpu it supports

[strange quiver]

It’s 1am rn but ok

i think it’ll fit

i think we good

phew

[vapid smelt]

Is OLED a bad idea if I want to use it for both productivity and gaming?

[shut lichen]

No

[forest remnant]

the organic materials will mold upon contact with productive tasks /j

[forest remnant]

new top!

yes I will get a mesh

[viscid elm]

Why would that matter

[forest remnant]

well it's basically just open now and the black mesh will make the transition to white look nicer

[viscid elm]

If it was for dust at all just no

[forest remnant]

they're exhaust fans so yea not for dust but I'm taking this pc to a dorm and I'd rather not have stuff drop in, especially when the fans stop spinning sometimes

[visual marsh]

bf6 uses all my 12 cores

guess who picked the right cpu all those months aog

[viscid elm]

Bet a single ccd would give more fps

[forest remnant]

man I love high temp nylon cf 🥰

I think this will live pc temps

[primal cairn]

I found what is causing my black screen issues

My power connector, the one on the PCB not the cable itself, is fried

Manufacturing defect from MSI

[latent delta]

MSI

Multiple serious issues

[strange quiver]

sceptre monitors are always great deals. I got 3 curved 240 hz sceptre monitors

You can get non curved monitors

They have a shit ton of options

I can give you a link to a fairly cheap 240hz no curve sceptre monitor if you want

Oh lemme see

1440p would be 165hz instead of 240

again, sceptre monitors are pretty cheap in general

dmed you a link

[undone mountain]

depends on your budget i guess kinda stingy of em to only include 256gb

still annoying how microsoft refuse to conform to IEC standard units where

• 1 KiB (reads KibiByte) is 1024 B
• 1 KB is 1000 B
  on windows 1 KB is 1024 B.
  My SSD is listed as 512 GB. fdisk shows 512110190592 Bytes, which is:
• 476,939781189 GiB
• 512,110190592 GB
  as shown in the screenshot, windows shows the GiB values as GB

so all those

windows shows less than the size advertized because of reserved space
claims are all BS
