wat

[idle nymph]

what about the amd side, any worthy upgrade from my 6800 ?

[viscid elm]

9070 xt ez

[idle nymph]

cause i was thinking of upgrading my rig just for the fun of it

[vapid smelt]

https://en.overclocking.com/arc-b770-an-update-on-expected-specifications/

[gleaming ginkgo]

Not really

[vapid wharf]

How much money you're willing to spend

[gleaming ginkgo]

9070xt is over MSRP rn at least in my country

[idle nymph]

honestly the same as my 6800 so 400 buckaroos

[gleaming ginkgo]

Unless you get something like a used 3090 ig

[viscid elm]

what is the MSRP in your country for what version

[vapid wharf]

Save up

[idle nymph]

i could spend a lot more but i gotta save to upgrade my cpu too one day

[idle nymph]

fair enough

[vapid smelt]

rx 9070xt but its at a costly $699

[viscid elm]

notthing worth it there

[idle nymph]

ARE YOU SHITTING ME

💔

[gleaming ginkgo]

Like all of the 9070xt cards are at least 150 usd more than their MSRP

They nearly cost as much as the 5080

[idle nymph]

man what the fuck bro

[idle nymph]

since when is the 70 xt so expensive 😭

what the fuck changed since i went in my rock bro

[gleaming ginkgo]

Idk if my country is fucked or something, the only amd card that I considered is 6600 xt

[idle nymph]

i can see that, ig my friend is gonna have to wait until i upgrade my rig 💔

imma just buy a case for now

and wait under my comfy rock

[vapid smelt]

your 6800 would be around the red area

[gleaming ginkgo]

My rock has been since ampere

The shock when I saw the prices of the 5070 lol

I still bought it because I want to enjoy my hobby and the next couple of months are going to be busy for me

[vapid wharf]

Lmao its 800 bucks here for 9070XT

[idle nymph]

yeah nothing worth to upgrade huh

[vapid smelt]

but the ray tracing and upscaling is waaaay better

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWTot0wwaEU

[idle nymph]

ive been fine my whole life without raytracing and im not gonna drop 700 on a new card 💔

my 6800 costed me 430 euro where the fuck did those kinda prices go

i should prolly upgrade my cpu first anywya

[vapid wharf]

Just be me

[idle nymph]

are we still on am5 or did it change

[vapid wharf]

Embrace workstation hardware

[vapid smelt]

you heard about the games that require ray tracing to play like Indiana Jones a great circle?

[vapid wharf]

2x A100 40GB

[idle nymph]

are you fucking with me

please tell me you are

[vapid smelt]

[idle nymph]

im a broke bitch 💔

[vapid smelt]

https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/indiana-jones-and-the-great-circle-pc-performance-best-settings

[idle nymph]

WHAT

oh my god bruh 😭

[viscid elm]

its starting to be built in engine now

[vapid wharf]

I also have 8x V100's

[idle nymph]

should i pull the trigger atp what the fuck can a broke bitch like me do bruh 💔

[viscid elm]

play silk song

[idle nymph]

i havent even played hollow knight

[vapid wharf]

Work

[idle nymph]

aint even got time for that

[vapid smelt]

stop spending money on baguettes

[idle nymph]

and i had a job this summer but man it doesnt even cover the cost of a 9070xt

[idle nymph]

but i need it to go with my 20 daily starbucks and avocado sandwich

well i think ill upgrade my cpu

[idle nymph]

coopa, i need you to be honest, are the prices for cpus also fucked

is it over for me

[idle nymph]

and my case and motherboard prolly

[vapid wharf]

No

Just GPUs

[tulip cairn]

@vapid smelt can u help me with my wifi adapter?

[vapid wharf]

The reason why GPU prices are fucked is due to AI boom and companies buying it by the containers.

[vapid smelt]

intel had horrible new cpus so they are cheap

[vapid smelt]

i dont do wifi

[tulip cairn]

or anyone else can also help

[tulip cairn]

i am struggling since last 4 hrs

[gleaming ginkgo]

Basically if you want to enjoy ray tracing without dlss and the shticks you need a 5080 from my understanding so far

[vapid smelt]

fine you can buy the $250 rtx 5050 that can match the performance of a 2017 gtx 1080ti in some older titles (in new games the 5050 is about 17%+ faster)

[idle nymph]

Oh my god bruh

[idle nymph]

What about for am5 is it still good

[vapid smelt]

yes

just dont buy a asrock mother board they are killing cpus

[gleaming ginkgo]

Damn ASRock fell off hard then

They used to be decent when Asus still owned them

[vapid smelt]

https://fr.pcpartpicker.com/product/ms4Zxr/amd-ryzen-5-7500f-37-ghz-6-core-oemtray-processor-100-000000597 really good budget cpu

[idle nymph]

I mean for the CPU I kinda want to get something that'll last me a while

[obsidian horizon]

well

[idle nymph]

My 5700x is good but hey before upgrading GPUs I'll swap it

[idle nymph]

Sick, I'll start looking today then

[gleaming ginkgo]

I just hope that the 5070 will serve me well for a couple of years

[vapid smelt]

damn you missed out on getting a $170ish r7 5700x3d

[gleaming ginkgo]

I also bought a 1440p monitor alongside it, I found some decent deal on a flat 32 inches LG ips 180hz monitor

[idle nymph]

Wasn't that for America only

[vapid smelt]

no

you could buy them on aliexpress

[idle nymph]

And when I bought the 5700x it wasn't out yet

[idle nymph]

Aw that's too bad

Wasn't out when I was upgrading

[viscid elm]

the 1080 ti is also going for like 100-150 used at least where i am

[vapid smelt]

way too much for a card losing game ready drivers lmao

[viscid elm]

ngl unless you play the latest and most spensive games does it even matter

[gleaming ginkgo]

For now

[elfin jetty]

Wha... what gpu are you switching to that will need you to upgrade from a 5700x???

[idle nymph]

idk 🤷‍♀️

[idle nymph]

i just want to do it for the funny and to upgrade my old rig mostly

[elfin jetty]

a 5700x is gonna be more than fine in basically any game you're gonna play

[idle nymph]

i mean im planning to upgrade it as an excuse to upgrade my old rig lol

[elfin jetty]

Fair. you gonna sell your old patrs?

[idle nymph]

what i'd do is essentially take my secondary rig

and replace its 4790k by my 5700x

in my main id get a new mobo, ram and cpu

then wayyyy later on ill upgrade my gpu

[elfin jetty]

hell yea, I've got a 5700x as well with a 3080ti. i plan on upgrading everything once my 3080ti starts struggling in games at 1080p.

then I'm gonna turn my old parts into something else

[idle nymph]

i got a 5700x and a 6800, both are doing insanely well for the prices i got them for but i wnana upgrade my secondary rig and create another one

[elfin jetty]

noice

[idle nymph]

that'd make 3 rigs

[elfin jetty]

I got my 3080ti for 500 bucks a few years ago. it said used but it was basically brand new in box without a single spec of dust

[idle nymph]

1 would be my upgraded mine

[elfin jetty]

this pc has a long history of upgrades

[idle nymph]

the second would be my "old" parts essentially (6800 and 5700x)

[elfin jetty]

my old parts went into my friends pc

[idle nymph]

and the last one would be another desktop id give to my friend who's in need of one badly (4790k and rx 570 8 gig)

so yeah 3 different rigs

imma make plans on how ill handle the upgrades 1 by 1 lol

[elfin jetty]

I love building computers for friends

[idle nymph]

its funny af

[elfin jetty]

gives me an excuse to practice lol

I've built over 10 rigs for people

them paying for parts obvs, at least most of the time

[idle nymph]

sick

[elfin jetty]

except i gave my old ryzen 5 3600 and 3060ti to my best friend

[idle nymph]

i should ask my friend if she wants that rig or nah

if she gives me a bit of money i could build her one (her laptop is dying we cant even play schedule together anymore)

[elfin jetty]

oof..

the only reason I bought all the other parts for my best friend is cause it was their birthday anyway and i needed to do something with that ryzen 5 3600 and 3060ti

[idle nymph]

im broke so i cant really afford to buy her a brand new pc TwT

and i'd feel like buying sometihnh like a b580 to upgrade my secondary rig would be a waste

cause ill upgrade my current gpu later anyway

[elfin jetty]

oh no the only parts they got brand new was the motherboard, psu, and ssd. the rest was used or salvaged from their old pc

[obsidian horizon]

guys what should i bind my mouse's 2 side buttons to because i dont think im gonna use them for back and forward

[elfin jetty]

cause at least their old pc had 16gb of ddr4

and a 1tb hdd

[uneven dagger]

Bind them to Something you’ll actually use 🤣

[elfin jetty]

close browser

[obsidian horizon]

good one, but i asked for suggestion for a reason

[obsidian horizon]

actually let me try to bind it to power toys, thanks for the idea

hopefully it works

expectations are low

[elfin jetty]

I use my mouse back and forward buttons in most games i play

[idle nymph]

oh fair

[obsidian horizon]

ah i cant bind it for powertoys run

[idle nymph]

my plans are basically slowly upgrading all my parts

[elfin jetty]

oof

[idle nymph]

and throwing them in my current secondary rig

[obsidian horizon]

guess only way to change that is from keychorn's site

[uneven dagger]

Yeah ik I’m just messing about, I have a MX Master 3s, bound one to ChatGPT, the side scroller to volume, side buttons to duplicate tab and switch workspaces

[obsidian horizon]

i dont use brower much so yeah

dont need it much in browser

[uneven dagger]

Yeah so maybe switch workspaces and then a function for your most used app?

[obsidian horizon]

catually i can set macro as well

[uneven dagger]

That’s useful

I haven’t bothered with macros yet

[obsidian horizon]

i will try messing around

[obsidian horizon]

🤔 maybe macro to switch between spotify songs

[uneven dagger]

I usually don’t use macros cause I use the 3S for all of my pcs and laptops

[obsidian horizon]

i have to press fn + page (up, down) to change music

[uneven dagger]

Ouch

[obsidian horizon]

i can turn on fn lock but that messes up the whole thing

[uneven dagger]

Yeah, what mouse do you have?

[obsidian horizon]

while playing cs if i have to press f1 to vote yes then it'd mute speakers instead

[obsidian horizon]

keychron m3

with rgb

[uneven dagger]

That’s a nice mouse

[mellow flint]

Hello everybody, i found a way in windows that allows me to install mincraft bedrock for free (Crack😈), how i can report this thing to fix it and remove this way, for a bounty?

[obsidian horizon]

i dont use rgb but yeah i have like 3 buttons free, currently i have middle button for showing desktop

its a button located right behind scroll wheel

[uneven dagger]

Honestly if you ever have more then 2 devices and don’t wanna constantly switch mice get a Mx Master 3s lol

[obsidian horizon]

you can install minecraft bedrock for free if you have java

[mellow flint]

No completly free

[obsidian horizon]

i have 1 lappy

[mellow flint]

no money at all

[uneven dagger]

There’s always going to be a way to get minecraft for free one way or another

[obsidian horizon]

ah

my friend's acc got hacked and he got another for free

😂

[mellow flint]

is there is a way to report it

[obsidian horizon]

if mojang is any interesed in dealing with that

[uneven dagger]

Sometimes I wish I could go back to one device 😭, I have like 3 pcs, 2 laptops, an iMac and a server

[obsidian horizon]

otherwise you can submit a bug report or something

[obsidian horizon]

what the fuck do you need all that for

[uneven dagger]

Is it really worth the time is the question, I doubt you’ll get paid or anything

[obsidian horizon]

he wont

he will receive an email saying thanks

mojang can do this stuff themselves, no need to set bounty

thye just dont care

[pallid falcon]

Doesn't minecraft bedrock sometimes come pre installed amyway

[obsidian horizon]

my friend reached out to mojang to get his acc back and they said they cant help
they just wanted him to buy another acc

[obsidian horizon]

?

wdym it comes pre installed?

[uneven dagger]

I have 2 main pcs, my main gaming machine with a ryzen 9 9900x and 9070, then a pc with i9 10900 and 4070ti for media and couch gaming, along with a legacy pc which was my dream build back in the day with a i7 4790, and dual R9 290’s, and then a old HP workstation with a 1050ti in it for a media server and vm hosting for various applications, then a personal laptop being a 2015 MacBook Pro, and a school laptop (m1 air) and then an iMac for my desk at school

[pallid falcon]

I swear sometimes mc just sometimes comes pre installed or sum idk

[uneven dagger]

It used to on windows 10

Only a trial version tho @pallid falcon

[obsidian horizon]

its free if you buy java but its not installed with minecraft launcher, you have to install it

[obsidian horizon]

10k worth of computer

[obsidian horizon]

i installed mc trial on phone back then and i found a but that allowed me to play it as much as i want

[uneven dagger]

Well school gave me the m1 air, and the 2015 Mac I pulled from a scrap pile haha and the server I was given

[obsidian horizon]

i have to go in settings and do something stupid like changing game difficulty or maybe game mode and it allowed me to play the trial version

[uneven dagger]

I remember it being limited on windows 10 laptops back in the day

[obsidian horizon]

as adult i'd simply not play but as a kid i just fucked around until i found a bug 😭

[obsidian horizon]

mine was on phone

trial version

[uneven dagger]

Android?

[obsidian horizon]

yes

[uneven dagger]

Interesting I don’t think I’ve seen that over here

[obsidian horizon]

i always played on peaceful

[uneven dagger]

That’s kinda the only way to play on mobile tho haha

[obsidian horizon]

nah

i had an aternos server with my friend who played from phone

it even had backup and suddenly both server and backup are gone

[uneven dagger]

That’s cool actually

[obsidian horizon]

took him days to build the house

[uneven dagger]

That’s a cool build

[elfin jetty]

harvesting wood was hard

[elfin jetty]

you still have a chance

[obsidian horizon]

world is gone sir

[elfin jetty]

oof

[obsidian horizon]

we have only screenshots

[elfin jetty]

you didnt back it up?

[obsidian horizon]

it was backed up but we played on aternos and it backed it up on google drive but now nothing exists

[elfin jetty]

oh wtf

thats incredibly unfortunate

[obsidian horizon]

i was kinda lazy to host my own server on my old laptop and i had shitty internet back then

now that i can, his phone's mb is fried and he doesnt have money to buy new

[elfin jetty]

I cant host a minecraft server without hamachi cause starlink doesnt have a permanant public ip I can use

[obsidian horizon]

he has a 3gb ram phone that cant run mc so waiting for him to get new one

[elfin jetty]

I could set up a vpn though

[obsidian horizon]

ah but not sure if he can play since server has to be for both java and bedrock

ok amma go eat lunch

[elfin jetty]

hmmm

[surreal obsidian]

hi

[crystal pollen]

hi

[polar fern]

I would really like to know what the hell is going on here

I’m actually not getting any notifications about subscriptions either

[frozen crow]

rip

[elfin jetty]

youtube thinkls your opinion doesnt matter and wants to shove content they want you to watch down your throat

that or there is an issue with their servers

[polar fern]

I don’t know about that, but suddenly my comments aren’t being seen or interacted with

Yeah, it’s been over a month so I don’t think so

[frozen crow]

i host a jellyfin server and use starlink, my domain points to my ip. doesnt seem to change for me idk

[elfin jetty]

hm...

[polar fern]

Imagine giving money to that guy. Yike.

[elfin jetty]

I'd have to sink more time than I'm willing to into it tbh

[polar fern]

anyways, yeah, I don’t know what’s going on here. I do not have a record of any punitive actions or anything. It’s very bizarre.

[frozen crow]

yeah fair ahaha

[elfin jetty]

look its that or absolute ass internet. I'm not paying for it though soooooo

[polar fern]

I would take the ass

[elfin jetty]

it wasnt my decision

[polar fern]

🤷‍♂️

[frozen crow]

yeah its like 360 a month aud for 3mb/s for me rather than 200 a month for up to 500mb/s so id rather starlink tbh

[elfin jetty]

they're taking thier sweet ass time rolling fiber out here

once they do I'ma pay for that

[frozen crow]

ikr its killing me ahahaha

[elfin jetty]

same

I want nothing to do with starlink

[frozen crow]

yeah thats fair

[polar fern]

I’m just trying to figure out why my comments have basically been made invisible

And now my notification history is blank

[frozen crow]

aliens

[polar fern]

You know if your comments were suddenly invisible on the platforms that you use I think you would be just as concerned as I am so maybe not make light of it

[elfin jetty]

google is indeed ran by a bunch of aliens

[frozen crow]

its happened to me before too

[elfin jetty]

or..... its just a server error and will be back soon?

shit happens

[frozen crow]

aye

[elfin jetty]

woah woah woah slow down man, I havent had any issues with em so far

They have also blocked about half the people on the server, because we disagree with their POV

[elfin jetty]

I mean, if I have a problem sure but idk, I havent yet so far

[fossil frost]

I'm just giving you a heads up. So you can be prepared

[zealous barn]

ive got a problem, so my moms grandfather is trying to put pictures from sd card to computer but when folder opened it shows no pictures

[viscid elm]

what format was the pictures on the SD card formatted in

[obsidian horizon]

how old is the sd card

[obsidian horizon]

pretty sure his grandpa doeesnt know that

[modern pier]

hlep

[frozen crow]

is the thermal paste making contact?

[oak pier]

what CPU

[zealous barn]

shii nobody knows but we have never had this issue before

it had always been plug n play

[modern pier]

intel core i7-3720QM or something

ok im just gonna boost the fans to 100

[oak pier]

have you repasted it?

[modern pier]

i will tomorrow

holy SHIT thats loud

[devout pasture]

haha i can do 103

[zealous barn]

it at first said that there was an error, however with the help of 'tools' windows apparently fixed it

yet no pictures to be seen

[severe verge]

Do you guys know wht phone does linus use that folds?

[vivid kelp]

should I buy arctic mx-6 if it costs like 8 or 10 euro for a 4g tube?

[viscid elm]

do you need it?

[vivid kelp]

I need thermal paste

[viscid elm]

new pc or fixing up the old

[vivid kelp]

fixing temps

[viscid elm]

what are they

how old is the current paste

[vivid kelp]

like 5 years old or so

maybe a little more

[viscid elm]

yea prime time to replace it

anyhow mx4 or mx6 with the smallest size is nuf

[vivid kelp]

I do also need to replace the fan... the bearing is just like absolutely done with its life

I just can't really get a good deal for the fan

[vivid kelp]

is it much better then tm30?

as I can get tm30 for a little cheaper

[viscid elm]

tm30 is just sad

[viscid elm]

what cooler

[vivid kelp]

its a laptop

[viscid elm]

aaaa

[vivid kelp]

so a HP elitebook 855 g7 fan

[viscid elm]

aliexpress it is then

[vivid kelp]

my warranty just ended for this laptop

[viscid elm]

rip

[vivid kelp]

very sad

[viscid elm]

its 10$ for a new fan

[vivid kelp]

I had on site repair

[viscid elm]

fyi with a laptop you way way rather wanna be using PCM/PTM

something like PTM 7950 or thermalright helios is going to show way better results

[vivid kelp]

Do you have a link?

[viscid elm]

well
https://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-HP-elitebook-855-g7-fan.html?spm=a2g0o.home.search.0

[vivid kelp]

Yeah I looked at that

I really dont know where to buy it tho

[viscid elm]

well any store on ali will be fine

not really had any issues, i just pick the cheapest and calculate the cheapest with shipping as sometimes the thing can be half a plus one but the shipping on the non plus one is like 2x the price of the thing

[vivid kelp]

I can get free shipping pretty quick

like 15 euro of choice items

[viscid elm]

o yea just make sure the fan looks the same before you buy it

[vivid kelp]

and like almost everything is already free shipping

[vivid kelp]

same logo on the front and same place of the connector should be fine right?

[viscid elm]

well that does not say much, it has to look the EXACT same

[vivid kelp]

lots of them only have 1 screw

guess that is the elitbook 850 g7 but I thought this one had 2 or 3 screws

I should check

[viscid elm]

yes

its a form of defense

[vivid kelp]

The person/machine/underpaid kid that applied the thermal paste on this laptop should really not work with laptops

There is thermal paste on the motherboard next to the cpu

Leaked out or something

[winged spire]

meh

its not harmful

[vivid kelp]

true but it does not look right or something

looks very cheap

On discord?

[polar fern]

@elfin jetty after contacting youtibe via their support forms twice, my notifications seem to have returned. Strangely, only one new notification appeared at first, but then a bit later all of them came back.

on youtube

[pallid falcon]

Oh, yt

I had that a few times but it only happend on the android app

[polar fern]

yeah this was everywhere.

normally i get at least a dozen or so interactions, even from the channel owner, and siddenly silence for several weeks despite me posting comments per usual

[winged spire]

Curious

[polar fern]

i looked at the link from before & it seems that was a browser related thing. my issue was with youtube hidingm y comments, then the notification system going blank

[winged spire]

Crazy how it is almost the same shades of orange lol

“Cosmic orange”

[polar fern]

and it was on multiple computers/browser and my phone, so it could not have been on my end

[stark idol]

Would you rather buy orange or cosmic orange if you’re part of the general populace

[polar fern]

i wonder if it is related to that newly discovered glitch with views vs likes

[winged spire]

Neither because I don’t choose my phones color based off the name of said color lol

[polar fern]

because the timing is basically identical

[winged spire]

Is anyone seriously buying the silver iPhone

Could you be more boring 😭

Blank silver is definitely significantly more boring then even a solid black phone

[pallid falcon]

I buy black phones..

[winged spire]

That’s fine

Black can look amazing

[polar fern]

i need to remember to post this on the forums

[winged spire]

Silver is so generic though

Idk

0/10

[pallid falcon]

More generic then just black?

[winged spire]

Yeah

[pallid falcon]

Hm

[winged spire]

At least like a good black

[polar fern]

i was finally able to buy a product red iphone last time i bought one, so i did that. not a fan of red, but i support their mission

Space grey would look way better than silver

anyways yeah. he tried printing a 400+ mm single case fan

the print was too fragile

i politely commented that it reminded me of this series of cases from aerocool

[winged spire]

They added a peal to the weird back pocket now lol

[polar fern]

there is a video of one of these cases having the fan spin, but it's buried in youtube's horrific search results somewhere

[harsh quartz]

Same with cars. Silver is the most neutral color imo.

[fierce hamlet]

Hello

[harsh quartz]

Also hot take gray > silver

Gray or grey whatever it is

[dusky jacinth]

Yeah, I saw it.

[winged spire]

Some silvers can look nice

Like you can get a nice metallic or Pearlescent

Your moms generic silver civic or something ain’t it though

Should I consider upgrading to iPhone 17 from a 64GB iPhone 12? Even with 9.8 GB free I can't download iOS 26

[topaz cairn]

greetings

[west oar]

yes because 17 is bigger than 12

[plush grotto]

I mean, that would be a descent upgrade I think.

[fossil frost]

"decent upgrade" is subjective.. does your current phone do everything you want it to do? if so, why waste money on what is effectively an AI junk update

[plush grotto]

It is 5 years old, so just in hardware it should be an upgrade.

[fossil frost]

what does it matter if its 5 years old if it still does what they want it to do?

not everything is a competition of "IT MUST BE FASTER THAN MY FRIENDS ONE"... most people want something that works, regardless of its age

<@&750150305383186585>

[plush grotto]

Wouldn't let me tag them

[plush grotto]

Going from a base iPhone 12 64gb to a base iPhone 17 256gb is an upgrade.

Sure you can argue about the whole "it still works" thing

But an upgrade is an upgrade whether the older device works or not.

[fossil frost]

they didnt ask if it was an objective "an upgrade" they asked if it was a subjective "decent upgrade"... "decent" being the qualifier, means that its irrelevant what anyone else thinks.. if it does what they already want it to do... and the new one adds nothing for them.. no its not a "decent" upgrade.. its a "expensive AI riddled slop" upgrade

[plush grotto]

Faster chips, better camera, better screen, more storage, better battery.

[viscid elm]

was is going on

[fossil frost]

if they asked "is the 17 an upgrade over the 12", my response would have been "apple would be a fucking stupid company if it wasnt"

[fossil frost]

spammer

[viscid elm]

sick

[plush grotto]

Fine. @compact summit don't upgrade, it's a useless generation.

[viscid elm]

i just replaced my quest 2s joysticks joysticks

[plush grotto]

https://tenor.com/view/hi-flag-waving-waving-flag-white-flag-gif-11354511317611877673

[fossil frost]

i had to replace my kids quest 3's thumbsticks a few months ago, after only having it for 6 months, they just... fell out

[viscid elm]

wat

[fossil frost]

he was using it, and the left hand controller, the plastic half ball bit that holds the thumb stick in the controller.. sort of just.. disintegrated.. and the thumb stick fell out of the controller

then the right one did the same about a hour later

[viscid elm]

wah

i wanna see some pics if you have any

[fossil frost]

ebay'ed a set of new ones, replaced them within a few minutes..

a month later.. left hand controller got stuck in the pair-loop-of-doom, and had to be replaced by meta

[viscid elm]

one funny thing is that the plan is to try and get me a quest 3 this year

[fossil frost]

are you a 10 year old who will use it as a toy? and has little to no idea how much force a thumbstick can actually take?

[viscid elm]

i would hope not

[fossil frost]

then you will be fine 😄

[viscid elm]

i can see why labs was making a stick holder thingy

my sticks died as i really did not use my controllers enough

[fossil frost]

i wanted to use his quest3 to play batman, but.. because my eyes are fucked because im 40 now... its blurry as fuck without glasses.. and.. cant fucking wear it with glasses

[vast crow]

Im in an overnight school trip and everyone is playing a board game, exept me because they said they were “to many”, but i just think they wanted to exclude me. Jesus christ im lonely

Anyways how are you guys

[viscid elm]

go and try to be with them or someone else instead of being on here

[fossil frost]

"other people" are dicks... try not to let it get to you

[vast crow]

Nah, they legit just told me to go away

[vast crow]

It still hurts tho

[viscid elm]

are there nobody else

[vast crow]

Nah

Im all alone, thats why im here

Anyways my pc looks so cool

Built it last week

Finally upgraded

[fossil frost]

yep, always does.. but what helps is learning how to brush it off and move on.. the more you realise that other people are just dicks... the easier it gets to brush it off and move on

[viscid elm]

when i get mine i really need to get the glasses thing too as i have 3D printed a PPI thingy for my q2 that also helps protect the plastic lenses from my glasses

[vast crow]

Ik, but everyone is there exept me

[viscid elm]

quest 3 glasses thing

[vast crow]

Dont they cost like 200

[viscid elm]

1/4 of that

https://www.zennioptical.com/p/vr-inserts-meta-quest-3/VR70003/VR7000301?utm_source=meta

and ali probs has em for like 10

[fossil frost]

£4.70 😄

[vast crow]

Damn

What are some good pcvr headsets

[fossil frost]

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008153864015.html?src=google&pdp_npi=4%40dis!GBP!5.10!5.10!!!!!%40!12000044014734272!ppc!!! 😄

[vast crow]

I have a 9070xt and i think that vr will finally work

[viscid elm]

aaaa you have the 3s

[fossil frost]

i never bothered with PCVR. VR in general always seemed like this genenerations 3D TV

[vast crow]

Ik, but you can really good headsets for 100 bucks

[fossil frost]

the 3, i just sent the 3s link to illustrate the point that they cost nothing on aliexpress

[viscid elm]

ye

[fossil frost]

you can get really good 3DTVs for not a lot of money too... doesnt make them useful

[viscid elm]

you just put a old pair of glasses in it

[vast crow]

Yeah, but vr is pretty cool

Plus you literally use VR yourself

Plus i wanna play those vr anime games

Shooting a kamehameha in VR would be sick

[fossil frost]

no, my kid uses it, i wanna play batman, because ive played all the rest of the arkham games

my kid uses it now mostly to watch youtube on a "huge screen"

and play golf

[vast crow]

I mean, POkemon on an 144 inch screen would be kinda

[fossil frost]

the "huge screen" it gives you for regular content looks like ass

it would cost a lot less, and look a lot better, to buy a 75" 4k screen and sit closer to it

the only impressive thing about VR is the quest type VR systems where its all self contained.. its impressive that they squeeze that much tech into such a small space

[viscid elm]

the quest 2 is insane

full hand tracking and room tracking and ability to play so many games all while doing like 4k

eh na 4k is a bit too high

well no wait yes 4k as each eye is doing like 2k

kinda but not

[sharp cradle]

i forget if I used a quest 1 or quest 2, but it was quite a decent headset for how much it costs and with no pc

loved superhot

[elfin jetty]

Your kid sounds like an old man already XD

[fossil frost]

he has golf lessons, hes pretty good. likes to play it on VR and also on the actual golf course behind my house

[elfin jetty]

https://tenor.com/view/golfing-golf-golf-cart-golf-course-playing-golf-gif-14982582100165608205

[fossil frost]

i have 2 full 18 hole golf courses within walking distance from my house.. and a further 5 within a 15 minute drive

[vast crow]

You must be a lucky fella

Btw why is you name bizzehdee?

Its pretty unique

[fossil frost]

busy d, became bizzy d, which became bizzehdee

its still pronounced busy d though

[vast crow]

Oh, fair enough

[sterile sundial]

i wanna get into PC flipping

where do i even start, like ik how to build PC's but taking Pics and stuff i aint any good at

[viscid elm]

no

[fossil frost]

if you wanna work for yourself, first thing you do is do basic research for yourself instead of getting other people to do it for you

[viscid elm]

this is how we get 6th gen and 1050 computers for 500

[sterile sundial]

im wanting to get advice wich isnt a bad thing mate, but brill 👍

[fossil frost]

you want us to make the effort for you, instead of learning for yourself

www.google.com

[sterile sundial]

thats a overcharge which aint even ethical

[elfin jetty]

@sterile sundial its gonna be really low margine, 10 maybe 20 bucks more than you pay for the pc itself

[sterile sundial]

it aint effort, its getting advice from someone who already has knowledge and experiance in such things and are willing to help, if u aint gonna say anything helpful, then u dont gotta say anything at all

[elfin jetty]

You gotta find a steady and relatively cheap source of used pcs and other parts

[sterile sundial]

i feel that and understand that. Its a proper gamble. I appriciate the heads up nevertheless ❤️

[fossil frost]

yeah... thats having someone else make effort for you, instead of doing basic research, like searching, and reading, and finding out how to take photos, looking at existing business models, looking at margins and generally how to run a business.. its not for us to set your business up for you... its up to you

[viscid elm]

used or new

[fossil frost]

and.. if you cant do the basics like look shit up for yourself... you ARE going to fail at business

[elfin jetty]

Ive been looking into stuff like this too, and it will definitely take time to really start feeling the profits

[sterile sundial]

lets hope i dont find any spider eggs in any system 😭

[elfin jetty]

But if you dont then you won't have a chance to become spooderman

[sterile sundial]

😂

[elfin jetty]

All he is asking for is a bit of advice. Ya gotta chill man. This isnt that serious

[fossil frost]

they are asking for somebody to hold their hand while they start a business... nobody holds your hand for you when you are in business.. everyone is trying to cut your hands off... EXPECTING people to hold your hand is setting you up for failure

[sterile sundial]

I'm in the UK and there arent as many people reselling like the US, Canada or Netherlands etc, so hoping for some decent business 🤞

[fossil frost]

there are literally 100s of them doing it on facebook marketplace and ebay, its extremely common

[elfin jetty]

Thats... what??? Where are you even pulling this out of

Nowhere does he say he wants to make a whole business out of it

Could be a side hustle or just for fun

[mint sandal]

Kind of just had my mind blown

[elfin jetty]

Jumping to conclusions helps no one

[elfin jetty]

Oh?

[fossil frost]

"side hussle" is a business.. and its a business that HMRC wants their cut from, and if you dont give them their cut, they take you to court and explain to you how exactly what they are asking how to do.. IS a business

[mint sandal]

They identified the faction that one shooter belonged in

[vapid smelt]

Idk trump got a small loan of a million dollars from his pops that's pretty hand holdy

[sterile sundial]

legit for fun 😭 college is too boring and i dont get enough work from there to keep me busy or engaged lmao

[elfin jetty]

Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down...

[fossil frost]

musk too.. its a lot easier to become rich when you are already rich

[mint sandal]

It leads right to nick Fuentes and gryopers

[elfin jetty]

I think you are way overthinking this bud....

[fossil frost]

absolutely not no.. HMRC run ads in the uk on tv and online, saying this exact thing is taxable and they WILL come after you for it

[mint sandal]

@elfin jetty apparently the kid was posting a bunch of gryoper memes

[elfin jetty]

Why are we politicking in general...

I come here to get away from that shit

[sterile sundial]

I have an accountant and lawyer, anything of the sort, ill be fine and covered mate, please relax.

[mint sandal]

Sorry just thought it's wild

[fossil frost]

so then you ARE running a business.. and you should be able to do the basics without asking opinions on discord

[elfin jetty]

@mint sandal I dont disagree with you, im just not here for that lol

[mint sandal]

Lawyers are definitely awesome

[fossil frost]

so? im overthinking it, when they have literally just said it IS a business ?

[sterile sundial]

I come here to talk tech and chill w cool likeminded people lmao

[fossil frost]

and im telling you that thats a bad idea

[viscid elm]

new or used

[elfin jetty]

This conversation is going in circles. Its probably better to disengage

[mint sandal]

Or tech being developed?

[viscid elm]

wat

[sterile sundial]

i have them as a "just in case" i dont have a business bro... where are you plucking this out of ur backside from? I get that we as a community are toxic at times, this is just unneccecery...

[mint sandal]

There's some awesome tech that will be in airplanes manufactured near me

[elfin jetty]

@fossil frost at least you are self aware with your about me

[viscid elm]

new or used

[sterile sundial]

Sorry, i dont understand, mind if you ellaborate?

[viscid elm]

parts you buy

[elfin jetty]

New or used hardware

[mint sandal]

This is the plane that will be built

[sterile sundial]

Ahh, mix, new preferably, but if a part is in perfect new state and quality, i would buy them too

[sterile sundial]

This aint the sonic boom right?

[mint sandal]

It's supersonic

[viscid elm]

you will not be able to do it with new parts

[sterile sundial]

yeah, i heard theyre planning on calling it quits. wayyy to expensive and there are too many isssues

[elfin jetty]

The only new parts youd be better off getting is storage

[mint sandal]

Nah it's still happening they're building a manufacturing facility right near my city

[sterile sundial]

I understand that, im just saying i would prefer if they are on a good deal. But as i also said, if in good state, then im good too

[sterile sundial]

Rip, u aint sleeping bro. consider 100x glazing windows

[mint sandal]

@sterile sundial they already had a successful test with boomless supersonic flight

[elfin jetty]

The only parts id recommend brand new is storage. I dont trust used storage especially if it has to be shipped in

[mint sandal]

Sam Altman is also one of the big investors

[mint sandal]

That's the engine they designed in house and will build

[winged spire]

Mmmm

How high is too high for tire pressure

Recommended is 40 and with this heat it’s at 49 lol

[mint sandal]

Got all mine at 35

[sterile sundial]

fair true tbh

[elfin jetty]

Uhh...wtf

Thats probably not good for your tires

[mint sandal]

Love the tires I got

[sterile sundial]

i love aviation and love planes, i wish i understood this in detail 😭

[mint sandal]

One engine produces 35,000 pounds of thrust there's four per plane

[winged spire]

Bruh he made a mess of my bathroom

I definitely woke his ass up from a nap in there

[sterile sundial]

nah, thats maddnessss

[winged spire]

But he knocked over everything 😭

[elfin jetty]

Is that... a carpeted bathroom..

[winged spire]

Just the sink area

[elfin jetty]

Still

[winged spire]

It’s just a sink bruh

[elfin jetty]

Who the hell thought that was a good idea XD

[elfin jetty]

Yea but its the same reason you dont want a carpeted kitchen

We looooove contractors that decide everything needs carpet

[viscid elm]

hope das has GFCI breaker

[winged spire]

I managed to trip one of my breakers with 2 3d printers and an ultra sonic cleaner

[mint sandal]

It's about 1300 mph

[vapid smelt]

He has a leaking tub and an AC unit he had to fix himself I doubt it's a GFCI outlet

[winged spire]

This place is NOT up to code

[elfin jetty]

There's no way in hell that should be drawing enough power to trip those....

Thats... really concerning

[mint sandal]

Shit I might be building a house soon might need to get myself a nice garage

[vapid smelt]

Get 38" doors for everything

[elfin jetty]

Remember, insulation is your friend

[mint sandal]

Although I'd love gothic architecture

[vapid smelt]

Fuck moving furniture with narrow doors

[vapid smelt]

Black house in the summer

[covert cradle]

lots of places like daisy chaining bathroom outlets to save a few bucks

[mint sandal]

In the woods tho lots of shade

[viscid elm]

well you do not need to worry about it if it goes wrong

[covert cradle]

what?

[viscid elm]

cant worry about it if you cant worry

aka ded

[covert cradle]

daisy chaining gfci outlets is to code and functionally works. It's just cheap and means higher chance of a nuisance trip

[mint sandal]

Having a few secret passages would be fun

[covert cradle]

Oh I mispoke, I meant daisy chained to a gfci outlet

[viscid elm]

yuh

SpaceX won the environmental lawsuit against them since 2023 for starship

Very based

[vapid smelt]

What was the lawsuit about

[winged spire]

They tried to claim starship was damaging the environment

(Surprise surprise it isn’t)

[plush grotto]

I mean, it kinda is.

The whole starbase.

And the pressure from launch/landing is devastating to any wildlife in close proximity to the pad.

And I'm not counting noise pollution

[viscid elm]

Ye

It's the chemicals too

[winged spire]

What chemicals

Which ones

There are MANY MANY MANY MANY MANY review boards in charge of what they’re allow to do and how they’re allowed to do it

[vapid smelt]

The lawsuit impacted the environment to all the paper,ink and transportation used for the lawsuit

[winged spire]

This lawsuit definitely caused significant ecological harm

Millions of dollars poured in, thousand and thousands of manhours on both sides

[winged spire]

Its a barren wasteland

There is the occasional bird I guess

We banning airports first though right? 😛

[sullen ore]

Oh Shi framework review is out

[viscid elm]

Even the ocean?

[winged spire]

Roughly 99.9999999% of the ocean is empty

[vapid smelt]

The small fish and bugs!

[winged spire]

So yes

Most of the ocean is a barren wasteland

[viscid elm]

Groundwater

Birds and other animals still roam

[vapid smelt]

Why didn't they sue the government testing nukes in Nevada back in the day 🧐

[winged spire]

Something that would cause ecological damage is say, using very, very toxic fuels then dropping the used stages in the ocean

[winged spire]

This would be just about every rocket program except for spaceX and rocket lab

[covert cradle]

I would expect these people to be against all rocket programs

[viscid elm]

Nuclear bombs have done horrible things for science, as old of the ways we used to measure the amount of fossile fuel carbon can nl longer be used

[vapid smelt]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivanpah_Solar_Power_Facility we are cooking birds and bugs alive on a solar plant that was pretty much a failure, but they care about rockets 😭

[winged spire]

Get in losers we are going to mars 😈

Leave the decelerationists to fend for themselves

[viscid elm]

Astroid mining is the only way we can go forward

[winged spire]

I will say, starship probably does wild things for the sand crabs near the pad

[vapid smelt]

I'm 80% sure my grandma and all her siblings got cancer from the fallout of testing nukes in Nevada

[winged spire]

How many nuke parties did she go to

[vapid smelt]

Non she was in utah

[winged spire]

They use to just go out to the desert and party and watch the nukes fall in real time for testing lol

[viscid elm]

I cannot understand how we still have any nukes left

[vapid smelt]

Everyone on my grandmas street ended up getting cancer

[winged spire]

This would be sick btw can we bring this back

I’d drop 1000$ per seat to go see an actual Nuke go off irl

Think of the tax revenue

[viscid elm]

[winged spire]

@vapid smelt did a battery health test

These mf gave me a brand new pack fresh off the line

As far as I’m concerned this car is now worth more than I bought it for even after adding 40k miles lol

It’s got more range then it did when brand new and can charge to 100% without degrading the battery

[granite tinsel]

close enough, welcome back OS X aqua/windows aero

[split swift]

that new looks is awful

makes me even more glad im not on apple devices

[winged spire]

android fanboys will yap and yap about how they love android's customization but then as soon as they see a customized iphone they send shit like that

(it was never actually about the customization)

https://tenor.com/view/my-honest-reaction-my-honest-reactor-nuclear-power-smoke-gif-26582644

[split swift]

no, the new liquid glass update looks like ass

[winged spire]

yeah.. you can just turn that off

[split swift]

and iv just never liked apple products

[winged spire]

the option to make things look bad isnt a bad thing

liquid glass itself is fantastic thouih imo

but that lock screen is about as customized as it gets

[split swift]

i dont like it, its too over the top

i like my simi transparent look

simi transparent of the color black

[calm swan]

aaand every single android phone manufacturer will copy it in the next year

it'll be the chinese first then samsung lol

[split swift]

i hope they dont

the latest UI change is total ass

[calm swan]

i wouldn't be surprised if they did

and no imo it's not ass

[split swift]

they added extra steps to something that didnt need it

[calm swan]

i've been using it since day1 of the beta, it looks way better than day1

[split swift]

it was infinitely better before the change

[covert cradle]

I'm only on macos, but liquid glass is just kinda meh. It was really bad in the first beta, so much poor text contrast in so many places

[calm swan]

of course it was bad on the first beta... it was the first beta lol

[strong kettle]

i honestly cant see a diff im on ios 26

[covert cradle]

sure, but it was also just egregiously bad. Like how tf did multiple people okay such poor text readability

[split swift]

bruh, tailscale is down :(

also, the server is pretty dead rn

its normally way more active

[calm swan]

change icons to clear

[strong kettle]

if thats bothering you just dont use it XD

[calm swan]

i've had it on dark mode clear icons and it looks fine

i'm not bothered by liquid glass at all

[strong kettle]

an update is meant to add more options to choose from

options that are subjective

if you dont like it turn it off or dont choose it

[strong kettle]

yea honestly its fine

[restive lion]

The messages app is pretty egregious

[strong kettle]

i dont think it even changed

[covert cradle]

It's just meh, nothing to really think much about. The changes on macos are much less noticeable than ios afaik though. At best 1% of my time is in OS UI elements or Apple apps

[restive lion]

Tf u smokin

[split swift]

smoke

[restive lion]

This whole thing and the sheet it brings up is entirely different

[strong kettle]

and thats bothering you?

[restive lion]

And holy fuck are the touch animations annoying

The touch animations sure do

[sage quiver]

Safari has the worst change IMO

Multiple taps to access tabs wtf

I know you can swipe, but c'mon

[restive lion]

Yeah actually the sheet it brings up is utterly useless now

[sage quiver]

Also, is automix working for y'all in Apple Music? It only ever seems to trigger at the last second for me.

I think this is the number 1 complaint I have of any UI - once I learn the look and feel of a given UI, I want to navigate it as fast as humanly possible for my brain and motor skills. This means the device / OS / software must allow all animations be set to 0x lest I become frustrated when the UI gets in my way. (This isn't just an Apple thing.)

[alpine gale]

First setting I change on any iDevice I use. It's not enough though - reduce != 0 for me.

[sage quiver]

Fair enough

Interesting.

[restive lion]

Yeah I have that enabled but it's still annoying

[restive lion]

Not a new thing tbf

[sage quiver]

Guess I haven't checked accessibility settings in a while

ah, iOS 18

[alpine gale]

That's a neat setting for those prone to motion sickness. My work phone is stuck on iOS 16 because it's an iPhone 8 Plus so it's missing this. The jury is out on whether or not they provide new / updated phones for IT staff.

[sage quiver]

You must educate them on the necessity that is Liquid Glass

[alpine gale]

LOL. "Uh, yeah, boss? I'm really slow at my job because we don't have Liquid Glass. If you upgrade me, I'mm be faster."

its a massive shame rocket lab needs to do this

a company starts dying the second it goes public

rocket lab could never do something as risky as starlink or starship while being publically traded, the first setback and shareholders would be demanding change

[sharp notch]

Guys

is picking up a used 6800XT good?

[elfin jetty]

Sure, depends on how much it is

[sharp notch]

244

[elfin jetty]

USD?

[sharp notch]

yea

[elfin jetty]

Id say thats a pretty good deal then

[sharp notch]

not mined, used for games. also no warranty so i can repaste and rethermal pads for an extra 20$ @elfin jetty
worth?

[elfin jetty]

Go for it, most that im seeing for even used are upwards of 300

[sharp notch]

wait lemme give u the full listings and see which one u think is the best deal

@elfin jetty GPU Sale (Used, Like New, Sealed – No Mining)

RTX 3070 – $220
RTX 3070 Ti – $250
RTX 3080 – $299
RX 6700 XT – $165
RX 6800 XT – $201

Warranty: 3 months personal for RX, 5 months for RTX
Refund/Swap available
Direct only (no marketplace)
📍 Location: Bogor Barat

which of them 5 is the best deal u reckon? @elfin jetty

[elfin jetty]

If you want RT, 3080, if that doesnt matter as much, the 6800xt performs without about 5-7% and is sometimes a little faster than the 3080

[sharp notch]

elaborate by "sometimes" please

[elfin jetty]

Depends on the game

[sharp notch]

oh

[elfin jetty]

They're super similar in performance

[sharp notch]

i fucking hate how 5060Ti 16GB here costs the same as "MSRP" 5070Ti

[elfin jetty]

Yeaaaaaaaaaa Nvidia sucks ass with pricing

[sharp notch]

is it nvidia not scalpers? or snipers? or whatever u call them fuckers are

[elfin jetty]

If its only ebay, its likely scalpers

Hi LTT Community,

I’m reaching out from Ping, a youth-driven esports and content hub we’re building in Kuching, Sarawak (East Malaysia). It’s the first of its kind here — not just a cyber café, but a community space with 240/300 Hz rigs, console lounges, and creator pods.

Why this matters: Sarawak has a growing gaming community but no proper infrastructure. With government interest and youth energy, Ping Hub could become the anchor esports hub in East Malaysia. We think it’s a story worth telling, because it’s not only about tech but about how access changes a whole region.

It’d be amazing to explore a possible collaboration? maybe a feature, a build video, or even remote coverage of how we’re trying to pioneer esports facilities in a place that’s never had one. It would mean a lot to the community here.

Would this be something the LTT team be open to discussing? I hope the community could help me highlight this to them. Been trying different ways to get in touch with the team.

[fossil frost]

probably best to post this on the forums

[broken oriole]

How do i post on the forums?

[fossil frost]

go to the forums... and post...

[plush grotto]

xD

¨such advanced steps

[fossil frost]

its not a difficult thing to do... its basic web usage... if they cant figure that out, they are going to fail at what they say they are doing...

i cant speak for LMG, but the request essentially boils down to "can we have free publicity and free stuff from LMG in a country where LMG has no presence" ... so i can only guess the answer isnt gonna be "yes"

[broken oriole]

Couldve just shared a link to the forums 🤷🏻

[fossil frost]

again, if you cant figure that out for yourself, you are not going to get very far

I have cpu+gpu combo well within the recommend specs, I still just push 70fps on high with fsr on.

The game is fun and so far I've experienced little bugs. But it's just badly optimized.

I've played about 20 hours so far.

Switching to your secondary is faster than reloading

I’ve been enjoying it quite a lot. I do with the performance was better, and that Randy would shut his fucking mouth, but the games fun IMO

But I also enjoyed TPS when a lot of people didn’t
