[echo nymph]

who was the first

oh terren

It's very hard to keep up with all the people leaving

[oak pier]

I like that LTT is so forgiving for their employees leaving and making their own channels, many companies would force non-competes on their leaving employees

[quartz dew]

i mean Alex did have to get an employment lawyer to help him out

[oak pier]

Is that in the new ZTT video? i haven't finished it yet

[echo nymph]

I don't think alex liked the whole gamers nexus drama

[quartz dew]

yeah

[oak pier]

lemme finish the video real quick

[quartz dew]

i dont think anyone at LTT liked it, they had some high profile people quit over it

[oak pier]

Death Threats are usually viewed negatively

[quartz dew]

and Linus is still pretty unapologetic about the cooler they tested to this day

[echo nymph]

Yeah he did a lot of damage to lmg

Who left because of that?

[quartz dew]

tim from the labs

and then like a month or two later some people left during the whole madison thing

[echo nymph]

Whats "the whole madison thing"?

[quartz dew]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linus_Media_Group

its on there "Allegations of hostile work environment"

the gamernexus thing is just above it

[oak pier]

with all these new channels from ex LTT employees imma have to keep up with like 4 channels

[rough oyster]

Pretty sure the cooler sucked tho, so its whatever

[quartz dew]

we'll never know they used it on the wrong card lol

[oak pier]

Also it wasn't entirely meant to be the best performing block, it's partly an art piece

[echo nymph]

I also hate how they fired all the employees from the channels that "they" decided to discontinue.

[quartz dew]

laid off is the term but yeah

[oak pier]

It likely would have performed fairly well had it been installed properly

[quartz dew]

and didnt auction it off

[oak pier]

While it sucks, there's not much else they can do when the channel isn't making money

LMG is first and foremost a business, if something isn't making money, they can't just keep throwing money at it

[quartz dew]

im sure it was explored but i think LMG could've done a publishing deal with ZTT, works somewhat for indie game studios

have ZTT be independant but get some upfront cash/advertismenet for a % of revenue without much oversight, but I'd also assume alex wouldnt mind being completely independant of LMG "management" too, as he put it

I'm sure the lawyer must've helped with the serverance negotiations

[jaunty compass]

oh they extended seeing the two rooms in the complete edition of scrapyard wars 10

[quartz dew]

did they mention the cheating

[jaunty compass]

in the complete edition no that's still stuck in the wan show

[quartz dew]

actually i guess linus found out on wan

yeah i was thinking of the room tour video

that video was a hard watch, whoever was the camera man was just zooming on their faces the whole time you couldnt see the room lol

[warped burrow]

Discord leaked our data again

[oak pier]

We saw when you posted the exact same thing in another channel 2 minutes ago

[warped burrow]

Ok

[jaunty compass]

who could have guessed that discord would get targeted after they started taking IDs

[warped burrow]

I just got the email it's crazy they word it like it's normal

these bastards leaked me I am furious 😡😡

[smoky badge]

oh well

[warped burrow]

In the email they say this "We have confirmed that some of your personal data associated with your contact with our Customer Support or Trust & Safety teams was exposed in this incident.
This may include:

Your name, Discord username, email and other contact details if you provided them
Limited payment information, including payment type, last four digits of your credit card, and purchase history if associated with your account
IP addresses
Messages and attachments sent to our Customer Support or Trust & Safety agents"

like good job for confirming it but are you actually gonna do anything about it? Obviously not it's discord

good for nothing company

[vapid smelt]

Since it's compromised already what's your credit card details?

[warped burrow]

🥀

I don't have anything like that on discord I don't think I put any of my personal info

[jaunty compass]

[smoky badge]

https://tenor.com/view/ilunushu-stellarnushu-anuakhil-gif-286136175020695697

[quartz dew]

i just put @smoky badge's personal info in my account just incase

[warped burrow]

jackass company

[vapid smelt]

Yet you still use it

[jaunty compass]

I was about to make a joke about the mac address channel being hit by a bus then i looked up the channel and found out that before the hiatus he literally got in a motorcycle accident

[smoky badge]

damn sim left

[digital thorn]

Exactly why I don't use my real data

[oak pier]

Given i just had to send them a picture of me and my ID, i'm not happy

[alpine gale]

If you live somewhere lucky enough to have a Governing Body responsible for Personally Identifiable Information, report Discord. Report them now. The only way anyone is going to do anything to protect our information is if people speak up.

[shut lichen]

They legally have to disclose any amount of information being leaked...
What do you expect them to do about it? None of this info really matters much in this situation tbh

[oak pier]

In the US, would that be on a state by state basis or is there a federal agency

cause the federal government kinda doesn't exist in the US atm

[alpine gale]

No clue. I'm not based in USA. Given how I've heard things are run down there... likely both state and federal. It's similar up here in Canuckistan - we have different Privacy laws depending on a company's line of business, and then also your Province, too. (Both of which are really stupid IMO - have one system, or don't have one at all...)

[oak pier]

My state actually has a site explaining where to go for exactly what kind of violation it is

in my case it'd be the Department of Justice for my state

And they have a form, nice

This form is surprisingly comprehensive and accessible

Good job my state

[clear wren]

RIP LTT, firing one of the best people in the company.

Based on what I saw in the video though, I wonder if LTT is gonna start censoring the use of Gamers Ne*us. LMAO

[echo nymph]

Is it only me who remembers the annoying banner ads at the bottom of a youtube video

[zealous grail]

What?

Who got fired?

[echo nymph]

He wanted to leave

alex

[quartz dew]

well he initially pitched it and wasnt happening

[zealous grail]

Aw man

[quartz dew]

you should probably watch the whole video for the full context tho

[echo nymph]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0GPnA9pW8k&t=3s

[clear wren]

Ye, alex pitched creating a car channel to LTT. The management said it was either he handed it over and became channel manager or he got fired. - short version, long version in the video.

[zealous grail]

Wait what he is already fired

[echo nymph]

yes

[quartz dew]

he got an employement lawyer, left with a severence.

and first video couldnt be ad or sponsor supported

[clear wren]

But he mentioned GN absolutely wrecking LTT with their video, though not for the reasons that actually needed to be talked about lol

[zealous grail]

Wait he left lmg and he is making a car channel for ltt?

Or what's going on?

[quartz dew]

nope not related to ltt at all

[clear wren]

Yeah its LTT management related.

Its literally in the video lol

[quartz dew]

watch the video for context

[zealous grail]

can't watch the vid rn

[echo nymph]

I think at the start when they first created the channel lmg management didn't want the channel to be apart of it but when it blew up he got the choice to stop the channel, it to be apart of lmg or to be fired

[quartz dew]

alex had an idea for car channel, but LMG just shut down mac address/techquickie/etc at the time and laid off all their staff, so LMG management wasn't interested in making a car channel. So alex was gonna do it himself, got an employment lawyer to fight the non-compete, ended with Alex leaving with severance and starting a car channel with Andy (who also left)

another posibility was that LMG would own the channel and make alex the "channel manager" but going independant made more sense to him

[clear wren]

TLDR, LTT/LMG (One and the same.) was a bit greedy and demanded Alex either hand over the channel and become channel manager or he could get fired and keep the channel.

He was previously suffering from burnout beforehand but when they got a collab with a group of car enthusiasts Alex got fired up big time and loved it.

So he proposed said channel and LTT gave him an ultimateum.

I'm not an LTT fanboy, I just care about facts. Also Alex didnt leave, he flatout got fired. Severence or not.

And this seems to be a reoccuring theme with LTT as well, greed.

[quartz dew]

this whole tech house idea sounds like a bad idea

[clear wren]

LTT as a whole and the way they run things is a terrible idea, their videos are successful but they really need to reevaluate how they approach things.

From an employee standpoint.

[quartz dew]

Chief Vision Officer

[clear wren]

At the end of the video, Alex mentions the non-competition clause thing.. which is just.. stupid?

[quartz dew]

they've always had that because of the sourcefed stuff

[clear wren]

The way I look at it is LTT has knowledgable creators and staff, but that doesnt excuse the sheer amount of greedy practices that have been just popping up more and more lately.

GN may have taken a shot at LTT for the wrong reasons at the time, but I really hope steeve does make another video specifically about the way LTT is run and their business practices.

Shouldn't be firing people because you couldn't get 1% more views.

[echo nymph]

That employee who started the whole thing probably got fired

the whole gn thing

[quartz dew]

he was the first to go

[winged spire]

this is a simplifcation

being fired was a GOOD thing for alex

[clear wren]

Maybe yes, but the fact remains the way it was approached by LTT was entirely wrong.

[winged spire]

what did you expect?

[clear wren]

Not much but certainly not "Hand us your channel or gtfo."

[winged spire]

or just shut it down?

[winged spire]

it was very tongue and cheek about the "very genous" severance package he was given along with then being able to access social assistance programs

[zealous grail]

What if all the other channels of lmg were acquired like this

[winged spire]

people really seem to forget that LMG is a company

[winged spire]

he came out way further ahead then if he just quit after not being allowed to do the channel

[zealous grail]

[hot tartan]

we don't know the whole story and we never will, but it seemed like he was still happy with LTT management at the end so 🤷

[clear wren]

Happy cause he got one of their editors and a ton of money to start the channel lol

[winged spire]

genuinely what do you thinkt hey should have done

[clear wren]

Be reasonable and let Alex run his own channel along side LTT, you know.. like JTC and GN already do for their employees.

[winged spire]

GN lets his employees make a competing youtube channel?

thats not reasonable at ALL lmao

your baseline is off

[clear wren]

Dude it was a car channel, tf is that gonna compete with a tech channel? xD

[winged spire]

theyve done probably close to 70 car videos

they had a whole car channel

what are you even talking about

did you even watch alex's video?

[copper ice]

I dont think what he said was even intended the way Steve took it. And also if it was factual I dont see why Steve took it so personally. Also if Steve likes accurate scientific data he should have applauded the way they were looking at automating it.

[clear wren]

LTT started off of and is primarily focused around tech, they didnt need to give that ultimateum to be successful and it wouldnt have even been competition in LTT's space.

Linus TECH Tips is not Linus Car Tips, it wouldnt have mattered.

[winged spire]

its LMG

he was employed by LMG, he signed a contract outlining how he cannot make a competing channel, that contract was obviously enforced becuase otherwise they could get in trouble for playing favorites

[clear wren]

LTT is LMG, same employees no matter how badly they want to rebrand/make a new channel/group.

[winged spire]

its a company

[copper ice]

By doing car videos on LTT, he made it so ZTT was a competing channel. He should have a) not done car videos on LTT and approached them earlier for a non compete exemption in a non competing category. I like Alex and will watch his channel, but it does appear his departue was due to his own dissatisfaction in his role, he didnt give them much choicethey have to protect their own interests first.

[winged spire]

he signed a contract, what do you expect?

OBVIOUSLY a company is not likely eager to have an employee runing a directly competing buisness after hours

[clear wren]

Again, better from LTT but then again the bar was already lowered after the entire GN clash.

[winged spire]

I still dont think you get it

[vapid smelt]

The ltt doesn't do cars really

[winged spire]

LMG

[clear wren]

I'm not becoming a yes-man to you, I disagree with the way you view LTT.

[winged spire]

Do you know what a contract is

[clear wren]

In my eyes it doesnt matter what the contract was, the way they approached Alex's request was very bad. It should have been done differently.

[quartz dew]

they did like a dozen or two car reviews

[winged spire]

did you watch alex's video

its very obvious that he got what he wanted

[vapid smelt]

Alex did yeah

Linus did a VW bus

[clear wren]

Start to finish, it doesnt matter if Alex got what he wanted or not. I'm still looking at LTT as being in the wrong for the way they approached his request.

[winged spire]

you still arent getting what im saying

[clear wren]

I don't agree with what you're saying, theres a difference. I get it, I disagree entirely with it.

[winged spire]

you do not understand what im saying and its very clear

[clear wren]

I'm not gonna just nod my head whenever you type something, I'm going to give my takes on it.

[winged spire]

idk why you keep saying that

nobody is asking you to

[clear wren]

LTT has a history of being greedy with its employees, its been called out before and the fact that Alex. one of the most respected writers and hosts on LTT's various channels called out the way that they approached it says quite a lot.

[quartz dew]

i think alex also did it but with linus presenting

[quartz dew]

i mean he spending a million dollars on a tech house instead of retaining key employees :x

[winged spire]

its pretty clear to me that LMG has plans to make a 2nd car channel, absolutely a large untapped market for them

[clear wren]

LTT is basically becoming the nintendo of the tech youtuber space so.. and yeah

[quartz dew]

rgb cabinet installations

[copper ice]

i think they were pretty good to Alex, doing car videos on LTT at all was clearly due to his interest and them allowing him to follow a market segment he was interested in if it was mutually benfical, it just appears the writer role title wasnt enough for Alex. i think it was simply he mutured to a point where nothing would have kept him happy to stay. He probably should have appoached them earlier before he was competing and decided to stay or leave then!

[winged spire]

firing him was clearly a "kind" gesture to Alex imo, from the sounds of it his alternative was simply quitting where he wouldn't have gotten severance and unemployment and anything else canada does

[clear wren]

And even so, its not entirely about alex at this point in my eyes. I've watched Linus since pretty much the beginning, one of my go-to channels was NCIX tech tips years ago.

Things have fallen very far from the original metaphorical tree.

[winged spire]

yes because its a company with 100s of employees

[copper ice]

its a different beast when you have 100 staff and well defined roles

[winged spire]

you cannot just decide to turn a blind eye to blatant contract violations by a single employee

[rough oyster]

And contracts, lol. Lil bro doesn't seem to get that

[winged spire]

100%

[rough oyster]

This ain't the cancer crew.

[clear wren]

If a contract dictates that there can be no competition for your company despite the channel proposed not even being in the same category, you are basically nintendo at that point.

[winged spire]

they literally are in the same category

they had a car channel

like what

[clear wren]

Cars are not in the tech category-.. most of the time.

[winged spire]

they make car videos

what do you not understand about that

the name of the company is literally not relevent

the company that makes, has made, and will make car videos is a competitor to another company that makes car videos

[copper ice]

Non competes are fairly standard in the business world, i guess theirs just was any competing media company. Usually that is time bound for a number of years.

[oak pier]

Generally non competes are legally binding beyond the length of the severance package

Obviously varies on exact area

[winged spire]

the non compete is not competing while actively employed by LMG

[oak pier]

Mhm, which is very legally binding in almost all scenarios

[winged spire]

so he became not employed by LMG with a large severence package and unemployement benifits

the firing was not some bad vindictive act as aurora seems to think

[oak pier]

He pretty clearly states he opted to be fired

[winged spire]

yes

[oak pier]

He had 2 other semi-valid options

[winged spire]

thats why I kept asking if she watched the video lol

its pretty clear that he was grateful for it

[oak pier]

Like it's clear he has some issues with how exactly it was handled, but overall he's happy for the final outcome

[winged spire]

cant expect much better then that though

[oak pier]

Mhm

[winged spire]

ending a relationship like that is never going to be perfect for both sides

[copper ice]

Sad Jake left, very knowledgeable server admin.. big loss. Sadly I think in his own channel we will probably get more consumer stuff as he wont have the opportunity to do server stuff. Level 1 is great but probably too enterprise for most. Jakes content was more medium/smaller grade on prem solutions

[oak pier]

We got dan

In dan we trust

Only if this PC does not do something you need or want.

RAM is cheaper to upgrade if you notice it's slow or you want to open an additional chrome tab

I'd rather give my PC to crypto miners

[obsidian horizon]

i get 70 fps (unstable) with 20render and shaders on

on 3050 mobile

[civic fox]

i get about 90fps with complementary unbound at ultra with a 3070 at 1440p

render distance at 12

[obsidian horizon]

cant beleive ts

[civic fox]

why? i tested this yesterday.

[obsidian horizon]

idk bro my card is like 4gb

yours should be atleast 12?

or...

[civic fox]

its only 8

[obsidian horizon]

is it not?

[civic fox]

no 3070 only has 8, you can mod it to 16 though if you wanted to.

[obsidian horizon]

yeah well thats understandable since you'r on 1440p

[civic fox]

but render distance is always 12 by default, i never mess with it.

[obsidian horizon]

but yeah my pc kinda performs pretty goof with that 3050 but only problem is that fps are unstable

[obsidian horizon]

i cranked it to 128 this thursday

without shaders

[civic fox]

yea thats something else haha

[obsidian horizon]

took me half an hour to load

[civic fox]

sounds about right lol

[obsidian horizon]

first i had to load all the chunks i wanted to load then the mod could load them from 1 spot

since it was not distant horizons

all those chunks were legit and not fake

had like 2fps at the end

thats actually hilarious. cats are something else.

[jaunty compass]

It's pretty clear that the subtext of what management didn't say was "this is clearly working. Either bring it under us, go out and do it right on your own"

Because If they were really firing him for breach of contract they wouldn't have been obligated to give him severance. Effectively it's Business theater to keep things legal while giving him money to support himself while he starts out

[winged spire]

yep

when people want to make a new career they normally quit their job which is a much worse option

id be annoyed if I was one of the several LTT employees that quit lol

[jaunty compass]

It's especially obvious given that they only gave the "ultimatum" after the channel blew up

[jaunty compass]

I could see how it could be misunderstood if you just assume that LMG management are the standard corporate reptiles

[winged spire]

or if youve never actually had a job lol

I think thats where a lot of the confusion is coming from

[jaunty compass]

Well yeah

[winged spire]

the unemployed redditors in r/ltt

[jaunty compass]

If he were really getting fired they would be trying to not give him the severance package, they definitely wouldn't have given the channel a shout out on wan show, and the departure wouldn't be on nearly as positive terms

He was "fired"

[raw lynx]

guys whats the better game launcher, epic or steam? and why ?

[oak pier]

steam, epic is so laughably bad it's incredible

epic is harder to use, incredibly unresponsive, and takes years to load

[raw lynx]

what about download speeds or anything else? i havent really encountered the stuff you said about epic yet

[oak pier]

entirely independent of the launcher

[stark idol]

Is the ui of epic moddable

[raw lynx]

how come i dont get the full download speeds on epic?

[oak pier]

CPU limitation and/or general overhead

[raw lynx]

but i get the full speed when downloading on google/torrent

[sharp elbow]

apple, when you update your feature, do you ever for adding the cool effect? Glass was a good idea. No cause it just made it broken and now I don't know what to do. I'm gonna have to fix this.

[mystic cobalt]

Good job

Smh using MY tax dollars

[pallid falcon]

[keen mural]

used to be a g502

not too sure what i can do to lose 7-8 grams

maybe use lw pla?

[iron lintel]

gonna start saving all my money for a desktop computer
rn
I got $130

[vapid smelt]

Lighter cable

Cut holes in the PCB

[keen mural]

it weighs 37 without the cable weighing it down

[keen mural]

wha

u mean the body

i cant rlly print those unless if i use supports

[vapid smelt]

Cut the fat out of the PCB just don't cut any traces

[alpine gale]

Most game launchers download compressed files (or delta updates in the case of updates) then rely on your CPU + disk to uncompress on the fly. Unfortunately, unless you have an absolute baller system (comprised of something silly expensive like an AMD EPYC CPU and PCIe 5.0 RAID 0 disks...), you'll always be somewhat limited by your CPU's ability to decompress the data, which results in not getting "max" download speeds.

[jagged linden]

how hard is it to swap a z flip 3 battery

[keen mural]

oh i see what u mean

how exactly would i go about doing that

[winged spire]

pcb is too heavy I agree

FR4 is too heavy

[vapid smelt]

Yeah it's very high risk low reward

[keen mural]

thought so

[raw lynx]

I got 100mbps downlaod from a lower end system and 6mbps download from my current system. Mb, not MB

[alpine gale]

Extremely difficult. https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Samsung+Galaxy+Z+Flip+3+Screen+and+Frame+Assembly+Replacement/163999

[vapid smelt]

Ai says the whole PCB on ultra light mice are around 7grams

[keen mural]

so if i take the pcb out of the mouse it’s dysfunctional but i cut 8 grams

🤯

bro what are these suggestions

[vapid smelt]

Could maybe cut 1 gram of fat out of the PCB !

[winged spire]

reverse engineer the PCB and make it smaller

[vapid smelt]

Make this Shorter

[keen mural]

yeah i think ill just cut some more holes in the body

[winged spire]

Remove the connectors entirely and just solder the connections

[keen mural]

would it still work with g hub tho?

[winged spire]

Yes

[vapid smelt]

Carbon fiber

[keen mural]

yeah but that leaves carbon fibers in my hand

leading to inflammation itchiness and infection

[vapid smelt]

Make the printed side walls thinner?

why do fireworks when you can laucnh rockets

[civic fox]

cpu is workin hard at encoding a 5 and a half hour video.

[zealous barn]

how easy or hard is it to change a psu ?

[mystic tundra]

unplugging the 24pin cable may be a bit difficult and not forcing an eps into gpu pcie connector or visa versa because you’re not supposted to force plug it like that at all

yes, i’ve seen people plug incorrect 8pin where 6+2 was supposted to be

anyways, it’s like lego, hopefully a 13 year old can easily do it

[scarlet dawn]

anyone knnow why my airpod 4s got super bass heavy all of a sudden?

[runic warren]

not very hard it just takes a while

[mystic tundra]

did you plug the pods more into your ears

[scarlet dawn]

nope the exact same

[mystic tundra]

did you connect them to a different device

that has perchance boosted bass by default or you accidentally set it

[keen mural]

what do i 3d print

im kinda bored

[pallid falcon]

Slugcat

[keen mural]

something useful

not a waste of filament

[mystic tundra]

watch some veritasium videos for inspiration

Just a quick question I’m planning on redoing my thermal paste for my pc I’ve got some 75% alcohol wipes that I use for cleaning is that able to remove the old paste off the cpu?

[winged spire]

ford figured out how to get around the EV tax credit ending lol

they put a downpayment on every single car in their own inventory

[gilded quest]

Aquatic!

Rivian update

[winged spire]

they bought their own cars to keep the deal and just pass it on to whoever buys it from them

[gilded quest]

It's been at the service center since Sunday. Don't expect to get it back until Tuesday

[winged spire]

did they say what was wrong

[gilded quest]

The Rivian will have been in the shop longer than it's been with us

[gilded quest]

Hold on I gotta check the text

[winged spire]

im guessing pyro fuse

[gilded quest]

They had to replace the onboard charger

I am hoping that means it's fixed

The vehicle is estimated to be ready for pickup on Tuesday

And no loaner on a $95k SUV for this BS

Wait what. Even aquatic got a loaner for his old Tesla

Hey. Think LMG/LTT would help me shedding some light on a scam/stolen GPU from Amazon?

@alpine gale I got a Halloween cosplay instead of my RTX5080.

[vapid smelt]

Email ltt/lmg

Kirashi can't do nothing

[winged spire]

add GN to the email thread so you only have to send one email!!

[sullen wasp]

No he was emoting on what I said.

[alpine gale]

That sounds like you should contact both Amazon and Law Enforcement. There are just too many scams to ever have effective publicization about. The best way to stop people from getting scammed is to eliminate the scammers.

[sullen wasp]

I did and PNY about it.

[winged spire]

eliminate?

[sullen wasp]

GN?

[vapid smelt]

Gamers Nexus

[winged spire]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-drone-gif-20814552

[sullen wasp]

The thing is. I went straight to PNY page in Amazon so it wasn't a 3rd party. My only thoughts are. PNY sent it to Amazon warehouse and someone from Amazon warehouse stole it.

I took a video before I opened the Amazon package cause I felt it was too light and the box was way too big for it as well so I had the foresight to do that.

[alpine gale]

Sounds like the person who ordered expensive camera equipment but eneded up with a box of rocks.

[sullen wasp]

So I should email both LTT and GN about this? Think anyone from those 2 would pick this up?

[shut lichen]

So he can make a video grilling Amazon without contacting them about what may have actually happened?

[shut lichen]

Or y'know the wrong label was put on the wrong box... The underpaid Amazon warehouse workers screw up sometimes and don't care

Sometimes you get the wrong thing, sometimes you get a whole box full of the thing you ordered

[winged spire]

[sullen wasp]

It was the right label and order number. I ordered 1 big bloody expensive item, and they sent 5 cheap rubber and fabric.

[merry glen]

Paying that much and the human residue is still on it? Shit dude

[sullen wasp]

Explain?

[shut lichen]

They're a shitposter, ignore

[merry glen]

bloody

[merry glen]

damn didnt know this was a no fun zone

guess linus cant even be in his own server

[shut lichen]

What alternate reality do you live in where this is fun?

[merry glen]

twas a joke

[shut lichen]

Jokes are meant to be funny

[merry glen]

cause blood is a bodily fluid and bloody is also a word to convey expression

therefore twas funny

[shut lichen]

It wasn't funny

[merry glen]

twas also the night before christmas

[merry glen]

chat this might be the grinch

[rough oyster]

Comedy is subjective. I found it funny

[winged spire]

Bro💀

[restive lion]

Would you guys buy a 12tb hard drive with 30k hours on it for $150 for Linux isos

[winged spire]

💀

[restive lion]

Not a good deal then?

[gilded quest]

Is it recertified

[restive lion]

Nah marketplace

I wouldn't buy used drives for data I care about losing

[civic fox]

i mean i would

i have a 1tb with 20k hours. still works fine.

[shut lichen]

No

[jaunty compass]

i only buy used storage if it's a crazy deal

like the 4tb nvme i got for $90 brand new in box

that drive currently holds a good portion of my installed steam games

[tepid sparrow]

But if it's just a bunch of .iso images that you can redownload?

I mean I would cry if my backup HDD died tomorrow, but I also have enough of the data scattered on my laptops I could rebuild as needed

[restive lion]

Yeah that's exactly it

[tepid sparrow]

Honestly it's worth it. But be wary that drive WILL cack it

[restive lion]

All my important stuff is in a raid array

[civic fox]

if its not for important stuff, why not.

[tepid sparrow]

I literally might switch one of my netbooks back to an HDD just to really feel what it's like

[civic fox]

oh trust me it is not fun.

even on a 7200rpm drive. it is sloooowwww

[restive lion]

I've been watching marketplace for a decent drive to pick up cuz I don't want to pay full price (read: fucking broke)

[civic fox]

oh i feel your pain there, being broke is rough, but tbf if you can find one with lower hours that would be lovely, if not then go for it.

[summer folio]

Used a RAM disk drive on my Netbook, chrome launched faster thay way

[split swift]

its slow

[worthy crater]

yo anyone here has a very old unused pc

[split swift]

why?

[worthy crater]

i wnana buy for cheap

and upgrade it

[split swift]

you cant do that here

[worthy crater]

maybe if its too old and you can gift :D

why lmao

[split swift]

against rules

[worthy crater]

why is it a rule

what is it preventing

[split swift]

its just against the rules, you cant ask to buy things from ppl

[worthy crater]

its a stupid rule

[split swift]

its not

[worthy crater]

how exactly

[split swift]

go buy an old office pc from ebay

[worthy crater]

poor country no acess to ebay

plus too expensive

some people have it as extra weight in their home, i can take it for cheap/free

[split swift]

1. its self promoting
2. ppl can easily get scammed
3. its not on a site with buyers protection
   etc

[split swift]

go check locally then

[worthy crater]

its literally ME paying bro 😭, and also if they want to give it for free then what

[worthy crater]

live in the smallest coast city in my country

[split swift]

then find a different way, you cant do that here

[worthy crater]

why do you care honestly

[split swift]

why are you so adamant?

[merry glen]

but access to discord?

and roblox??

[worthy crater]

"No AcCeSs To An OnLiNe ShOp But AcCeS to ChaTtIng ApP?"

[merry glen]

yes

[worthy crater]

are you fucking stupid

[merry glen]

no

you have access to discord and roblox, but not ebay?

seems like you're lying about something

[worthy crater]

um

ebay just deosnt fucking ship to georgia?

[merry glen]

global shipping program

yes they do

[worthy crater]

im guessing it ships to north korea too hm

[merry glen]

georgia is not north korea

[worthy crater]

when was that ever said hm

[merry glen]

you clearly dont live in georgia if you're comparing it to north korea

[worthy crater]

I do live in georgia

შენი დედის მუტელი მოვტყან

[merry glen]

what is that meant to convey

im a gorilla ooh ooh ah ah

im a dog woof

[worthy crater]

i dont understand why it matters so much, going on a MARKET has lower chances of freebies than GROUPS or DMS which have weight on their shoulders of old useless tech

[restive lion]

Wow I love a bit of racism in the morning

[worthy crater]

making fun of my language

[merry glen]

what

[worthy crater]

is insane

[merry glen]

twin trying to scam people is insane

[worthy crater]

exaclty how am i scamming anyone when im very clearly saying does anyone have any old pcs they want to get rid of

[merry glen]

because you claim ebay does not ship to georgia, and get extremely defensive when you cannot further elaborate

also, what about georgian services

[worthy crater]

well it does, its asking 561 USD to ship a 91 dollar pc rn

i can dm you the proof

[restive lion]

Claiming you're going to beat his mothers ass in another language is also pretty insane ngl

[worthy crater]

literally not what it means

😭

it means condolences for your mother

for birthing him essentially

georgia is one of the oldest languages in the world

[merry glen]

what would be negative about that

[worthy crater]

so translators are a bit shit to it

[merry glen]

???

[rough oyster]

another word for the r slur

[worthy crater]

m so yummy 261 DOLLAR DELIVERIES YESS

[worthy crater]

idk what ur talking about ngl

[merry glen]

fella don't you think its a little concerning you're going as far as saying all that because i exposed you for a scam

[rough oyster]

Yeh you're pretty weird.

[worthy crater]

not really when youre an idiot. Please enlighten me how it is a scam 😭

[restive lion]

<@&750150305383186585> we got some fire racism, slur calling, and some scamming(?) have fun

[merry glen]

cheers

[worthy crater]

very clearly said that id either buy it for super cheap or ask to get gifted since im looking for old used office pcs

[worthy crater]

I bet they love you at parties 😭

bro has a special role at the prison with the cops

[mint sandal]

Anyone like project cars much

[merry glen]

???

[worthy crater]

was i talking to you

[rough oyster]

What is the implication there?

[merry glen]

this is a discord chat, thats not how that works

[worthy crater]

that hes a snitch maybe its that

[worthy crater]

it is how that works lmao i was replying to him

this guy is actually so dumb 😭

[merry glen]

mhm

[rough oyster]

This isn't a private dm, it's a public chat

[worthy crater]

so wait, if i say YOU are dumb, that means the whole server will come at me saying whyd you call me dumb?

are you guys this stupid? or is this ragebait

[rough oyster]

They're allowed to do that.

[worthy crater]

im sensing it is ngl

[merry glen]

no, they'd call you weird

because you're pretty weird

[worthy crater]

for reasonably calling a person dumb?

[merry glen]

not reasonably no

[restive lion]

Battle of the witless

[merry glen]

woah woah woah there

[worthy crater]

Youre literally taking it onto yourself everything i say, even if its clearly directed at someone else.
You accuse me of a scam, when no money is involved/promised anywhere.
You make fun of my language, culture, etc, and call it gorrila tongue.
that is all me, right?

[merry glen]

nobody called anything gorilla tongue

[worthy crater]

interesting...

[merry glen]

read what i said below that

[merry glen]

^

its showing you that just because you type a language doesnt mean youre from georgia

[rough oyster]

Yeh, quotes like this are meaningless.

[worthy crater]

literally the language GEORGIAN

[merry glen]

yes?

[worthy crater]

😭

[merry glen]

you dont change languages when you move countries

[worthy crater]

only the country GEORGIA uses the language GEORGIAN

[merry glen]

and?

the only country that uses japanese is japan, but americans can also use it

[worthy crater]

I was birthed here, raised and learned this language

[merry glen]

if you genuinely want an old pc, use ebay

[worthy crater]

500 dollars in shipping for a 90 dollar pc no thank youuu

[merry glen]

then pick something that isnt 500 dollar shipping

[merry glen]

like a neighboring country or something local

[worthy crater]

minimum is 200 dollar shipping

[worthy crater]

soo does that disprove anything i said orrrr

[merry glen]

i doubt anything local or in a nearby country would be 200 dollars for shipping

[vapid moss]

you were saying that only people in Georgia speak it

[worthy crater]

no? i said only the COUNTRY used the language

where was people said

obviously no country only has local speakers

thats like saying grass is green

[merry glen]

thats not what the image conveys

it means multiple countries speak georgian

[worthy crater]

no?

[merry glen]

yes

[worthy crater]

immigrants dont make a countrys official language that of the immigrants original country bro 😭

i immigrated to germany BOOM germanys official language is georigan now

[merry glen]

nobody was taking about languages on an official level, you dont work for the government

[worthy crater]

Pretty sure this is exactly that

[vapid moss]

when you go back far enough do

[merry glen]

the point is, use ebay locally or go to a store

[worthy crater]

a country using a language has literally no other meaning than official use

[merry glen]

no

there are people in the usa that speak japanese, but japanese isnt an official american language

[worthy crater]

ebay isnt available and stores sell them way more expensive, im looking for freebies or cheap used pcs

[worthy crater]

notice how you said people and not the country? :D

[merry glen]

ebay is very much available

[worthy crater]

technically it isnt :P

[merry glen]

how so

[worthy crater]

561 dollars in shpping makes it unavailable :P

[merry glen]

561 dollars you say?

[worthy crater]

yeah

[merry glen]

you wouldnt mind showing an image, no?

[worthy crater]

sure

dms?

[merry glen]

use tech-chat-1

[merry glen]

that is from the united states

[worthy crater]

check the chat again

[merry glen]

that is from germany

which is in europe, not asia

[worthy crater]

which is the closest one!

georgia isnt asia :P

[merry glen]

it is in asia

[worthy crater]

google it :P

[merry glen]

yes, it is in asia

[vapid moss]

"georgia isn't asia" copy pastes that its in asia

[worthy crater]

europe, asia means its from asia? IM SOBBING BRO

[merry glen]

europe, asia means its from europe?

[worthy crater]

Georgia[c] is a country in the Caucasus region on the coast of the Black Sea. It is located at the intersection of Eastern Europe and West Asia,[17][18] and is today generally regarded as part of Europe.[19] It is bordered to the north and northeast by Russia, to the south by Turkey and Armenia, and to the southeast by Azerbaijan. Georgia covers an area of 69,700 square kilometres (26,900 sq mi).[20]

[worthy crater]

no but the thing i just says its from europe, everyone regards it as europe, president says its from europe sooooo

[merry glen]

it doesnt matter what the president says, shipping is based on distance

its still just as far

[worthy crater]

Im pretty sure we were arguing on whether its asia or europe

[merry glen]

i used the continent to convey that not only is it far from germany, but its not even considered as in the same continent

[worthy crater]

and im telling you, germany is the closest seller

does it matter if its written on paper as australia america or euorpe??

[merry glen]

no

thats my point

and i once again highly doubt the closest computer you can find is from germany

[worthy crater]

well idgaf about what you doubt lmao

its so sad whatever you are

genuinely

i feel pity

[merry glen]

because you cant scam people online?

it seems you dont even really understand why shipping cost varies, which leads me to believe that you are making excuses to self-promo on discord

which even if the shipping cost legitimately was as exaggerated as you tried showing, it is still self-promo

[shrewd steeple]

HIii wsup people

[pallid falcon]

[violet spade]

Hi

[worn dust]

How is everyone on this fantastic day 😄

[echo sluice]

I'm worried again with youtubers using temu even Mr dankpods has done alot of temu vids recently, now psivewri

[obsidian horizon]

[hollow scroll]

Yeah, even big Clive has been buying aliexpress stuff recently

Although he does take it apart to see how it works

[obsidian horizon]

great

i started watching austin evans some months ago and stopped after some days

his thumbnails were so clickbait

i got an ick

[reef field]

i have to say hi so, HI

what is a battlestation?

[slow vine]

A pc setup, where you play games

Where you go to online battles

[shut birch]

everyone's getting fired or what

[tepid sparrow]

Basically the setup that you play games at

A battle station

[tepid sparrow]

His earlier stuff was good

[obsidian horizon]

hmm

[tepid sparrow]

Shipping would be the same if one of us Americans shipped to there

I don't quite think it's worth $397 to ship a $20 laptop

[lost ice]

If i have a fresh install of windoes and dont download gpu drivers, can my pc just started crashing one day because i didnt downlod drivers

Like after using for a while

Just started crashing cause i dont have drivers

[floral bramble]

yeah it can windows uses basic drivers, but they suck after a while your gpu can crash or freeze ’cause it’s not running the right drivers just install the official ones to fix it

[lost ice]

The issue i had before on my old pc is that the gpu drivers can game fine at first than started crashing after a montj

[floral bramble]

yeah that happens windows drivers work fine at first but after a while they start bugging out and cause crashes you need the official gpu drivers to keep it stable

[lost ice]

and than i did local reset and it didnt fix it, than i installed gpu drivers, idk if it fixed it or placebo

[floral bramble]

maybe it actually fixed it but most likely the drivers were the issue

[lost ice]

recently i was playing games

than i unplugged my laptop

and than i replug it

and my gpu was like dead

it was at 50 degrees and fans are not spinning and my fps was very low

i have to restart the laptop to fix it

is that just a glitch with power? @floral bramble

[floral bramble]

yeah

gpu gets stuck in low power mode when you replug fast restart fixes it happens

[stuck furnace]

is it worth it to get the 7600x3d or spend 200 more on the 7800x3d

[strong marsh]

Unless that extra $200 nets you >10-15% more real-world performance in the games you play, the 7600X3D is probably the smarter buy.

[summer folio]

9800x3D or bust

[stuck furnace]

it to much tho

[summer folio]

in Sweden 7600x3D is 350$, 7800x3D is 420$ & 9800x3D is 540$
25% VAT/Sales tax included in price of course, like in all 1st world countries.

[hasty widget]

Have you guys seen the new digimon

[summer folio]

I prefere the original one

[summer folio]

what gpu you have lol & what resolution on monitor

[hasty widget]

Yeah but so far this game looks pretty fun, ive never played digimon so far but ive collected it whilst being a pokemon fan

The demo is free and runs well

[summer folio]

Must certainly, 7600x3D is the best pick for you

[hasty widget]

Btw the evolutions for digimon confuse me

Cause wtf is this

[stuck furnace]

rx 9070 xt 1080p

[hasty widget]

Brutal

[summer folio]

I prefere the original Digimon World 2000 Game Evolution tree for PS1.

[hasty widget]

BRO WHAT IS THIS

You have to explain it to me

[summer folio]

There is a 5% difference for 1% lows between 9800x3D & 7600x, & 8% difference for average fps, with a RX 9700 1080p
The difference between 7800x3D & 7600x3D would be less than that for you then most certainly.
if the price difference is worth it is up to you then.

Since the price difference is just 60$ in Sweden, but 200$ where you live, I feel like ur getting scammed by going for the more expensive CPU ngl.

TL;DR @stuck furnace All signs points towards go for the 7600x3D, if it's just for gaming.

That is true, choice is up to you. e

Still sounds like the 7800x3d is overpriced compared to 7600x3d where u live

Really bad AI too

Like did anyone actually watch it before hand

Mmmmmm

[restive lion]

Seems fine?

I don't see any funky distortions

[robust crest]

Has anyone been in a similar situation where you forgot to pair the speaker connector onto the laptop before closing the plate shut?

I thought I messed up with the cables when I didn't get audio lol

[unkempt bluff]

Anyone aware of good desktop speakers?

[gleaming spindle]

Brother
getting two of those would be my entire pc and monitors 🫠

[restive lion]

[unkempt bluff]

My criterion of looking at speakers is literally because my 2k monitor does not has in built speakers

[restive lion]

you said good without how much you were willing to spend so I gave the ferrari of speakers

[unkempt bluff]

So i was like which would be a good value that would have clean audio, good for music, can keep me engaged for single player gaming as well

[restive lion]

oh fuck off warship

[unkempt bluff]

Budget not fixed but has to be above average and value.
Legit started research today

[restive lion]

these are fine if you aren't (other word for bumhole that the bot censors) about your sound quality https://us.creative.com/p/speakers/creative-pebble-v3

A kid just tried to convince me that doom slayer was created by fortnite

I wanted to slap the fucking sea dog shit out of him

[unkempt bluff]

3.6k inr on Amazon.

And what if i am a butt hole for audio quality???

P.s. made a 5.1.4 home theatre with xtz speakers if that help you getting to know my taste profile

[restive lion]

then pay up lol

[unkempt bluff]

Like the budget in my head was 5-8k

Inr to be specific

[restive lion]

so about $90USD

[unkempt bluff]

You could say. Prices maybe somewhat different India and US

Also would it be wise to spend that much on speakers? Would desktop speakers last as long?

[restive lion]

im not from the US even but converting anything to/from CAD is bullshit

[unkempt bluff]

I mean on here everyone naturally thinks in USD smh

[oak pier]

studio monitors are great

[unkempt bluff]

My idea of speakers came because I just upgraded to 1440p and it would be a disgrace not to have speakers with a 27 inch monitor

[restive lion]

you can get some reasonable stuff for around there, but there's mainly 3 categories of desktop speakers: $3 TEMU speakers, $30 fairly reasonable speakers, and $250 studio monitors

[unkempt bluff]

Studio monitors are more for audio production???

[restive lion]

theyre for anyone who want strong, accurate speakers really

[unkempt bluff]

And realistically that 90 to 120 dollar window non existent? For a better than average expectation?

[vast crow]

Yo, whats a good 1000 buck upgrade for my pc, i have a 7800x3d and 9070xt

[restive lion]

ehhhhh

[unkempt bluff]

I prefer the slight tune than dull or plain honestly.

Like for example, chose xtz because of the tweeters technology - the Chimes and whistle sounds or rather the lighter ones came off best

[unkempt bluff]

But again that budget category was different because that was shared home fund - desk is for me only 💀

Im seeing edifier r33 bt on amazon

[tardy terrace]

edifiers are also a fine suggestion

[unkempt bluff]

Seems research gonna start

https://amzn.in/d/hyY3GCR

[restive lion]

yeah edifiers are also decent

[unkempt bluff]

Range is from 6k to 12k inr on amazon

I have 0 knowledge on how their models would differ

[tardy terrace]

i have these
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08869TSQ4?th=1

[unkempt bluff]

More than 12k too but beyond that i guess no value going up in price

[tardy terrace]

they are very good

[unkempt bluff]

Optical input 🤔

Im on a msi b650 gaming plus wifi board 💀

[unkempt bluff]

I you guys want full spec I can share for reference

If*

[unkempt bluff]

Manageable then

Could take it from there monitor or direct from pc

[unkempt bluff]

15k inr too steap

[restive lion]

used market?

[unkempt bluff]

India is a market of frauds in used because of the number of repair shops

Service would become a pain in the ass if not bought new

[restive lion]

ah

i buy everything used here

[unkempt bluff]

Well not an option on this side of the world 🫠

[fossil frost]

i have had these, they are very good for their price. sound perfectly fine for every day use, and are probably better quality than the quality of sound file you are using too

[restive lion]

For me probably not but for most people yes

(I work in film )

[fossil frost]

tbh, film and music produces need to stop using studio monitors, and master to what people actually listen to their stuff on

[restive lion]

We do (IMAX theatres )

[fossil frost]

a lot of producers dont understand that what they can hear isnt what the end users will hear, so they end up producing dog shit sound. very very few producers actually understand that they need to bias what they are mastering, because what they hear, isnt what i hear

[earnest path]

Could someone help me. I ordered a new gaming laptop with no OS and want to prepare a windows boot. How do I do it? Can I use an external hard drive that plugs in via usb? And where can I get a cheap key?

[fossil frost]

you could have googled almost the exact same question https://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+create+a+windows+usb+boot+drive

many many guides on how to do it

[real stratus]

Get another computer, a usb flash drive, the Windows 11 (or 10 if your a diehard) iso from microsoft, and rufus or something. Flash iso to usb. Plug usb into laptop and boot off usb, install windows. Then install drivers, and find a way to pirate windows. Enjoy microsoft spyware

linux is always another option

I will forever hate the people who come in here asking for help about debloating

[vapid smelt]

Just use Linux at that point

instead of removing random components they should be learning what they're actually wanting to delete and how it ties into other system components
