@vapid smelt

They’re like 3-4x the weight of a normal benchy so it’s really strange to pick up if you’re familiar with the weight it’s supposed to be

[strange elk]

Dense

[vapid smelt]

did you really use tungsten filament to make a benchy?!?

[strange elk]

Two from the looks of it

[winged spire]

They’re like 7$ each

Lmao

Also yes it looks like ass because calibrating this filament is gonna cost me like 40$ lmao

I just pressed print with my generic PETG profile

[vapid smelt]

but do they float

[winged spire]

This one’s OK

I was live adjusting the flow and temperature while they printed lol

same machine from the looks of it

its 2 years old which is why theres only one left from that seller & sold out most places

not sure if they did a shortcircuit on it, but i think they may have

wonder how well 3d printed tungsten penetrators would work for homemade AP bullets

[winged spire]

poorly

the tungsten almost certainly reduces strenght

we covered the first AWS outage in my CS course (cloud native computing) and talked about it for like 50 minutes, at this rate we may not get through all the course material…

[shut lichen]

But what about second AWS outage?

https://tenor.com/view/merry-and-pippin-lord-of-the-rings-breakfast-second-breakfast-gif-23495544

[flint arch]

the bulk of what we talked about was how much of a pain it is to get everything back online after they fix the issue so that part would be the same

it is pretty worrisome that just one region going out can cause such massive issues for days

like if they happen to screw up a couple regions at once stuff there really could be issues and somehow we’re screwing up at massive scales twice within 10 days

[alpine gale]

"Oopsie, we deployed a change to our Management backbone and now we can't talk to any of our servers. Welp, guess we'll just close up shop. There's no way we could have prevented this." To be fair, humans make mistakes... but also, many of the things we call accidents are just byproducts of "that's too expensive, make it cheaper."

there’s a test reactor in Austin I got to stand on top of like 12 years ago and stare at a few spent fuel rods from, sadly it was off so I couldn’t see the cherenkov effect but it’s crazy that 10 feet of clean water shielded me from all that radiation

standing on top of the reactor I had less radiation exposure than in any other point of my life

[molten wasp]

i didnt think linux did updates like windows that way

[molten wasp]

what distro?

[toxic hatch]

BROADCOM website just displayed like that

that's means "VMware workstation pro 25H2"

[urban thistle]

[toxic hatch]

I am shocked when I first look at it lol

[molten wasp]

ok, ill assume its just buzzwords to make people think its updated and what they're lookin for

[bleak heron]

yo guys im rocking a pentium g620 with 12 gb ddr3 ram and no gpu lol and i can still run fall guys and dishonored at decent framerate. i need a gpu bro

[split swift]

No

You need a new system

I have a pentium g630 as a goofing around cpu and it sucks balls

[bleak heron]

yeah imma get a new pc in feb

[split swift]

2 core 2 thread is terrible now days

You can probably buy a temporary cpu if you want, getting an i7 2600 would be a big improvement for your current system

[faint yoke]

get a temporary PC at that point

[split swift]

That costs alot of money

And makes no sense

[faint yoke]

not if you buy someone else's ewaste

[split swift]

He is already on lga 1155

No need to get a similar system

[faint yoke]

I'm saying you can often find much newer systems on marketplace for super cheap

[split swift]

Depending where you live, yeah, but I dont think ghost has the money to get a new old system when he is gonna get a new one later

[bleak heron]

yeh ur right creeperhead but as sson as i pass my grade in feb imma get a new pc

btw i just got cooler master mwe 450 wt psu

hello i want to know if i should buy a pc for my son. he told me to go here. i found a cheap pc on this place called aliexpress called the "ryzen 5070" pc. should i buy it?

[faint yoke]

personally I would never

[faint yoke]

AliExpress is generally not a great place to buy a PC. When/if stuff gets shipped (generally from China), there's a risk of something breaking in shipping. Customer support would come down to the seller, which can be hit or miss

[soft scroll]

k then what about temu

[obsidian horizon]

temu got best pc's

[soft scroll]

k ill go to temy then

ehh same topic not point

oh wait yea u right

[faint yoke]

I mean sure like every kid is different, but of course some kids are gonna find all the ways to bypass parental controls

[obsidian horizon]

[faint yoke]

as a kid we used to play ball hockey in the street all summer, or just bike around, do stupid stuff with the neighbor kids, normal kid stuff

[obsidian horizon]

i though it was best thing cuz i got to talk to people

but people so rude i got toxic myself

[obsidian horizon]

best

btw i have played ben10 on my mom's keypad phone

sometimes someone gets hurt jumping their bike off of a homemade ramp, but that's just boys being boys lol

[obsidian horizon]

my mom was and still is overprotective

[soft scroll]

nic

nice

[obsidian horizon]

i think overprotectiveness is also bad parenting

i didnt get to learn so much stuff cuz i was limited

[faint yoke]

to an extent, but also there's so many things that society doesn't really allow anymore

[obsidian horizon]

and school definetly doent teach you anything thats worth in real life

[obsidian horizon]

such as..

[faint yoke]

like if you send your kid to the cornerstore to go get milk in 2025, someone's calling the cops on your kids being alone 💀

[obsidian horizon]

ah yes

american things only

sorry but this doesnt happen anywhere else

[oblique monolith]

Wtf

[faint yoke]

back in the day, my mom would go buy cigarettes (as a child) for my grandfather and that was normal at the time

[obsidian horizon]

i was in india till 14 then moved in to greece

[obsidian horizon]

kids still do here

infact they buy all the stuff to make a cig themselves

[faint yoke]

I'm Canadian btw but still

[obsidian horizon]

my teacher herself said she started smoking when she was 14 and now she cant stop her kids from smoking cuz she also did that...

my thoughs are completly different

[faint yoke]

like yes I'm exaggerating, but not as much as you might think

[obsidian horizon]

if somking is bad then i should stop my childern from somking telling them about my own experience with that stuff

you could probably contact EVGA support and they'd probably help you with this

I'll do that right away! Hope they answer given that they don't do GPUs anymore lol

EVGA customer support is apparently very good, it wouldn't hurt to ask. Worst they can say is no lol

[north wraith]

Looking for something like the (sold out) dbrands diy kit to make a skin for something. Any suggestions? Quick hunt on Amazon found some good thing in the “automotive wraps” section

My project is customizing a Nintendo switch case so I am concerns about thickness more than anything else.

[clear wren]

Anyone know how the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 stacks up to the laptop Rtx 5070 ti? Been searching everywhere and can’t find a comparison for the new gpu’s

[north wraith]

Basic idea is building off this prototype I made (yea I know it’s not centered!)

For the upgrade I want to have the ring slightly recessed into the case and put the vinyl along the back so it’s all flesh and smooth

[winged spire]

Is that MagSafe

[north wraith]

Indeed

[winged spire]

[north wraith]

Just for stands no charging or anything

[clear wren]

Still no answer on the gpu comparison

[north wraith]

I’ve really enjoyed the deck mate line of attachments so I wanted to find a way to interface with it while maintaining switch docking easily… so magnets!

And the stick on ring is quite strong!

(Blue thing is a repurposed steam deck stand I made. Originally it would hold a steam deck on one side and the part the switch is locked into now would have been where an arm for a phone mount would go)

But yeah if yall have any suggestions on a good wrap material for the next build lmk. Particular if it’s like “Atomic Purple” or close to it. Going for that classic GBA look with this 😎

Probably the last project I make for the switch 1 🥲 end of an era for sure.

[worthy reef]

Gaaaa!
I just can't seem to find the TV that fits the spec I'm after!
40-45 inch

Ok to reasonable speakers that don't need a wall right behind them, because of where I want to mount it.
I would like great contrast.
300-600/ish in price (I know that's an ask)

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I would be most grateful.

[gleaming ginkgo]

should I upgrade? I am playing at 1440p

[knotty thunder]

best place to buy cheapish drives for a nas? would like smth like 4TB x4? so 16TB?

[worthy perch]

All of that stuff is perfectly sufficient for 1440p in 2025. Kinda gross you're on Intel, but oh well cx. Wouldn't upgrade CPU, unless fully converting over to AM5 because your upgrade path sucks for Intel. If anything, I would upgrade your ram

[silver sun]

647

[gleaming ginkgo]

it was a black friday deal back in the day

it was cheaper than 7700x

upgrading my ram means getting a new cpu and mobo though

[worthy perch]

Nope, not on Intel

That's like 1 good thing about Intel

Backwards compatible mobos with ddr4 and ddr5

[gleaming ginkgo]

if I am getting a new mobo I might as well go with a different gen I guess

like I would just get am5

[worthy perch]

Yes, 100% get AM5. Every day of the week

Regardless tho, you have very solid specs, outside of ram. Should be able to play any game you want, at 1440 and get great fps

[gleaming ginkgo]

i guess I shouldn't upgrade then in that case

are we talking about a 10-15 fps uplift?

because after the cpu upgrade the gpu would be the limitng factor

[worthy perch]

Honestly, it wouldn't give you a huge fps boost

[fossil frost]

you should upgrade if, and only if. your current setup cant do what you want it to do... if it does what you want it to do, upgrading is just shitting money into the toilet for no reason

and the only person who can decide if you should upgrade for you, is you

[worthy perch]

You would get a minor fps boost with ddr5, however, the nice thing about ddr5 would be faster load times for stuff. Not needed really, more of a luxury. If you do plan on going to am5, that is what I would buy first because you'll need it anyways and will still be able to use it with your current pc

[gleaming ginkgo]

maybe the 1% lows would be better but I don't know if it's worth it lol

I just thought that maybe this cpu is getting old a bit for this card

[strange elk]

I wish I could shit money

[covert cradle]

Get some performance monitoring tools like Frameview and figure out if the GPU is underutilized. Assuming a game is graphically demanding enough and doesn't have some engine bottleneck, it should generally be close to 100% GPU utilization

I would bet it's not an issue though

[cloud moat]

Hello! I'm a software engineer and tech hobbyist from US. Glad to meet fellow tech enthusiasts!

[flint arch]

👋

what kind of software engineering do you do?

[last basalt]

https://tenor.com/view/halloween-happy-halloween-trick-of-treat-pumpkin-spooky-gif-13662735232838864690

[cloud moat]

backend engineering and AI, but have 4 years of initial linux & network engineering too

[flint arch]

that’s cool, I’m thinking about specializing in backend engineering

i have a lot of different experience, I like networking and linux and am taking a cloud native computing class that I’m liking and it ties a lot together I feel

i have some game dev and reverse engineering too

[cloud moat]

ohh looks great

[winged spire]

We love finals

[cloud moat]

which language do you have reverse engineering exp?

[winged spire]

The work never ends

[cloud moat]

i also know a bit regarding C/C++

[flint arch]

i did a google summer of code project building gentoo images in docker containers

[cloud moat]

ahh that's good 🙂

[flint arch]

c# and swift for reverse engineering iOS apps but I’ve done a lot of stuff with open source hardware like arduino and keyboards in some C and a bunch of stuff I’ve forgot off the top of my head

[flint arch]

yeah it fits nicely if I want to do cloud stuff which I didn’t even think of when I did the project tbh

i like this kubernetes stuff because I could probably get a job where I’m getting paid for open source dev

this CNCF stuff looks like it’s pretty big

[cloud moat]

hmmm, do you have any certificates?

cloud engineers should be certainly regarded as a big guys💯

[flint arch]

i got my security+ in HS lol but it expired like 4 years ago

it’s insane

on the kubernetes page google says they deploy billions of containers

[cloud moat]

mine is around 10 years ago when I left network field lol

[cloud moat]

indeed

[fossil frost]

i dont think i have ever got any certificates or qualifications in software dev... and i have code in some of the biggest software projects in the world... i would say that everybody in here has used software i have been a part of, today...

[harsh quartz]

we love AI

[flint arch]

how are you liking AI stuff?

[fossil frost]

almost all models are designed to agree with you as much as they can

[harsh quartz]

all i did was type in aviologists

however the fuck its spelled

[fossil frost]

ill re-state my comments on AI... "AI isnt I, it only seems like its I to people who have no I of their own"

[harsh quartz]

ill restate my opinions of AI. i fucking hate AI

i wish i was back in 2016 and AI is just one of the reasons why :(

[cloud moat]

just without ethical issues of AI, it would be best in the world maybe?

[fossil frost]

"AI" or, more s pecifically, machine learning models, CAN be used as a tool to do a job.. very specific jobs.. the real problem with "AI" rignt now is that every single company wants to slap a quickly drawn "AI" sticker and stick it on to the side of their existing product without understanding what they are doing or why they are doing it... and they are only doing it to trick investors into giving them more money, and to trick customers into giving them more money

the bubble is going to burst, and its going to be catastrophic

[harsh quartz]

no

[flint arch]

I had fun writing functions and having ai call them

[harsh quartz]

AI is an underbaked overhyped tool that is being used outside of its actual usecase

moral quandries aside

[fossil frost]

"AI" didnt call them, you wrote a script, and some other software interpreted that script and ran it.. in the same way that any other interpreter interprets any other scripting language

[flint arch]

I did a little hackathon with these haptic pucks that could vibrate and change temperature/color and used ChatGPT to adjust them to fit the vibe of an audiobook as it was read out

[winged spire]

I use ChatGPT to make my telemetry readouts

[flint arch]

mapped one over the chest that mimicked a heartbeat and had it get high in stressful scenes and chill out in calm ones

[winged spire]

3-4 sentences is enough to get it to make a decent enough web interface for my rocketry telemetry

Very based

[flint arch]

it was pretty cool and i won it

[fossil frost]

i did a hackathon where i wrote a javascript engine, and had it pass the industry standard JS execution tests...

[flint arch]

yeah it made a ui for an audio -> vibration deal i made for a friend...

[fossil frost]

it was slow as fuck... but i wrote a tokeniser and interpreter and an API in 2 hours

[flint arch]

won the hackathon btw

[flint arch]

that's dope

[cloud moat]

current era is similar to the period when blockchain raise rapidly, but this AI won't die easily

the most bad feeling with AI is when I get interviewed with AI bot haha

[fossil frost]

it will die just as hard, and just as easily, but because nvidia has found a way to make billions from it, it will just take slightly longer than blockchain did

there are people working on making ASICs and software that goes with them, that allows for the training of AI models without GPUs, and the FIRST itterations of them will be 10x what a GPU can do, at 1/10th of the price

once those are a thing, nvidia loses its cash cow, and everyone switches, and the money goes away, AI hype will also go away

[flint arch]

I don't think AI is going to die off

[fossil frost]

the hype is all because of money, once the money dries up, the hype dries up

[flint arch]

it's too useful but the hype will probably die off

[cloud moat]

this sounds great, tbh i wasn't ware of it

[flint arch]

it's crazy what you can do with math

or 4 bit floats in a block with a scaler

Windows Latest (@WindowsLatest)

A Windows 11 bug is duplicating Task Manager process when you use the 'X' close button to exit it.

This means Task Manager won’t quit on Windows 11, sending each instance to background.

It appears that the October 2025 optional update (Build 26200.7019/26100.7019, which released with new Start menu, accidentially broke Task Manager close button for some users (not everyone will run into this issue).

If you're affected, don't use close button to close Task Manager, as it'll create ghost entries, which use your RAM and CPU.

To exit Task Manager, use “End task” instead.

breaking the X button is wild work

[molten wasp]

just use tasklist 🤓

[civic fox]

seems to be working fine here

[harsh quartz]

theres always another issue :P

[civic fox]

well i'll wait until i see one

[harsh quartz]

have they fixed the USB input for windows RE yet?

[covert cradle]

It's only on the preview update, so you'd have to go out of your way to get this update

[civic fox]

all my usbs work. unsure what that specifically means.

[civic fox]

oh i see.

[harsh quartz]

for a little while they broke USB inputs (keybs and mouse) when in the recovery environment. seems to be fixed.

[civic fox]

oh i see, i havent had to use the recovery environment in a long time, glad its fixed though.

[molten wasp]

you broke it didnt you

[civic fox]

no?? nothings broken.

[molten wasp]

Very strange question
Did Iphones used to not embed MP4 files on discord? Say on or before iOS 2.3.5?

[left schooner]

Help guys
Should I go for one 1440p monitor with RX 9070 XT, or two 1440p monitors with RTX 5070?

[storm gate]

One 1440p monitor 9070xt

[calm swan]

sudo su

[soft scroll]

yall google photos ai remover is accually goated

and also u can get it on any phone

even apple

[soft scroll]

depends on gameplay, if he wants likie a racing sim, 2 monitors would be better but if he wants to play normal games he should go for one

[kind vine]

why would you use only 2 monitors for sim racing

[soft scroll]

i dont think ios 2.3.5 is a valid version, but ios 2 exists way before discord so there might be problems

[kind vine]

ones looking at the front windshield and u only have another for a side window

[soft scroll]

Wider fov, more realisism

realisim

[kind vine]

then… just get a UWQHD curved?

sorry but like it looks weird if you have a hinge in the middle

even if you have one of those covering things

[soft scroll]

true but it is shorter and more expensive

ive found 200 dollar 34 inch 1440 p

i mean a lot of people use e or 2 monitors for sim racing

or just buy a tv acc

[kind vine]

i use 1 as primary the other for other shit like disc

[soft scroll]

actually a lot of people dont mind the hinge (its already reallly small these days) and also your eye would erase it when focusing on the game

[kind vine]

thing is right ur still stuck with some white transparent shit in between

he also didnt state his usecase

[soft scroll]

true thats why i said "it depends"

[kind vine]

ur context of that isnt directly correlated to the hinge thing

but whatever

[soft scroll]

oh yea i meant to reply to the bottom one

[soft scroll]

but ive useed 3 monitors for sim and i dont think the hinge is a problem. just try to get a small hinge large monitor and your eye would do the rest

[kind vine]

we’re talking about 2 not 3

3 you have both windows and the front

[soft scroll]

yea even 2

Gotta be honest, not looked at advances within networking in around 10 years, and was looking at CGNAT. Does indeed a lot of players get wrongfully banned because of CGNAT? The ports used to map the different networks in a CG-NAT works how? Would i always have the same port? Is it 1 port for each private network? Or is it several for each of the private networks ports?

What i basically ask is if those ports used to identify each private network are static or dynamic.

Get a price quote? Why? They should all be the same price, no?

[strange elk]

Its codewords for "too expensive for you"

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, but an actual price would convey that as well

[fossil frost]

its code for "we want to know how much you can afford"

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, it’s also a way to avoid a backlash of people saying it’s too much and whatnot

[fossil frost]

are you a startup with little to no money? base price? are you a large company with a big budget? somehow, the same thing, is much more expensive

[harsh quartz]

Well, the company is probably much less relevant to this one in particular

honestly, are they even teaching windows?

in the us, i know they use chromebooks.

[karmic copper]

My school has Mac’s 😎 😎

[drifting yacht]

plus the lack of computer literacy people have nowadays because of chrome os, consoles, phones and tablets.

[proud arrow]

As far as i know in my country they teach Windows

[drifting yacht]

my college had some macs but mostly windows

[drifting yacht]

got it. i think if they choose to further on with computer science

then yeah teach em some linux

but windows should still be taught and used

[karmic copper]

Im in highschool (my country doesnt have middle school so I would be in middle school)

[drifting yacht]

ah got it.

[karmic copper]

Ngl they can set up way too many blockers for games and stuff on Mac 😭

[proud arrow]

What I mean is that in Primary Schools and Lower secondary they should consider Linux as an alternative
Given how Microsoft handles windows nowadays

[drifting yacht]

gotta teach them for the real world which is windows

here its: primary school, high school, college or six form or an apprenticeship till your 18 unless you choose to continue on, past that you've gotta pay) and university (optional)

[carmine dew]

That fair, but he is a clear scammer and it'll help out any parents of kids that play it and watch him streams.

Here's a Perplexity AI search that proves it too.

Perplexity AI research proves it, along with many different searches via Google and Reddit.

https://www.perplexity.ai/search/find-recent-streams-of-rylogam-pfzOSBWHQnuKa7i.mTe94A

[strange elk]

I'm not gonna take the word of some chatbot about it but it's pretty obvious

How many parents of Roblox players do you expect to be active here tho

[carmine dew]

His stream ended, when I join, he had 9k viewers, everyone was spamming scammer. It took 5 minutes for his viewer count to go down to less than 400 viewers.

[carmine dew]

Or anyone that plays it and watches him.

[carmine dew]

I checked Reddit and did a lot of Google searches myself as well, Perplexity is correct, as it usually always is.

[strange elk]

I'd say you'd have better chances in a Roblox discord but.. Knowing people as end users much less children

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[strange elk]

But like I said what a clanker says doesnt matter much to me

[carmine dew]

I'd agree if it was any other AI, but it's Perplexity, it's literally designed to be the most accurate "search" AI tool, better than Google and far better than ChatGPT. If you're going to trust any "clanker" Perplexity is the one to trust.

[strange elk]

Yea that's what they said about intel and cpus

Look where we are now

AMD is worth mentioning tbh since they clearly had planned to end support for RDNA 2 for a moment

Not that they are bad cpus on their own right but loyalty like that to a tech company especially AI ones isn't the most healthy thing

microsoft has been on a roll fucking up windows with every major update

they broke the recovery environment

and now they broke task manager

[vapid smelt]

And making windows 11 instillation drives or something like that

[compact radish]

was it really worth laying off tons of ppl and replacing them with chatgpt to make your code

[urban haven]

same probably with micropoop windont

i wonder if this will drive up lmde and balena downloads

[vapid smelt]

More people installed windows 7 this year...

[urban haven]

even worse
good thing i still have my win7 cd and key combo

and vista

[oak pier]

they realized win10 wasn’t more secure, so they reverted back to their beloved win7

[compact radish]

genuinely if they don’t get their shit together linux might be better for a lot of devices, especially since windows 10 reached eol and a ton of old, still capable computers can’t reach the 8th gen intel cpu requirement

[urban haven]

imagine someone saying "win 10 is getting mad rancid. time to go back to win8"

[oak pier]

difference is no one liked win8

[oak pier]

People will just use win10 anyways

[urban haven]

which is why it would be funny
i know someone that did exactly that

[compact radish]

i guess

[urban haven]

but all my close friends use debian/debian forks or artix

there is no “i guess” millions of people already are

maybe don’t be a beta tester and run insider preview builds?

[oak pier]

lol do they use beta branches of windows?

[compact radish]

im not, im just saying that microsoft loves fucking up windows every major update

[flint arch]

windows really tries to push them too

[flint arch]

isn’t just the insider preview builds that have been breaking?

[oak pier]

that’s where the major issues are

[compact radish]

no, the windows RE bug was in a standard cumulative update

[oak pier]

minor issues in the full release as well

[vapid smelt]

Small little uptick

[flint arch]

I’m not sure about WinRE but the task manager thing is on the IP build at least

oof

[oak pier]

the way win11/10 swap is funny

[compact radish]

as well i believe the media creation tool breaking wasn’t part of an update

[oak pier]

then almost switch back again when people realized they don’t like win11

[flint arch]

i need to figure out the group policy setting to block windows from installing windows insider preview builds

[compact radish]

i believe they’re entirely optional no?

[rustic tundra]

the issue has been fixed in the latest patch update

[flint arch]

who decided to start running windows 8 a few months ago???

[oak pier]

masochists

[rustic tundra]

i made a 8.1 system early this year

[flint arch]

yeah but when I do installs on other people’s computers I get worried they’ll install them because on the windows update page it really tries to push them

[oak pier]

airgapped, right?

[rustic tundra]

connected to internet

[oak pier]

Lunacy

[rustic tundra]

nothing worked except for minecraft

[compact radish]

just tell them it causes issues

[oak pier]

i don’t think you understand quite how stupid the average consumer is

you could tell them it would literally kill them and they’d forget 30 seconds later

[rustic tundra]

oh yeah you have no idea how stupid some people can be in terms of tech

[flint arch]

wow that’s impressively bad

[oak pier]

you have no idea how stupid some people can be in general

[rustic tundra]

i would crash out if i worked one day in IT support

[oak pier]

the average person is a complete and utter idiot

[compact radish]

i wish microsoft would be more public about announcing these sorts of things

[rustic tundra]

these issues have been fixed though

just install the latest KB update

[compact radish]

it feels like i find out most of these issues through a third party and microsoft is just going radio silent on these issues just to cover their own ass

[rustic tundra]

has been fixed

[flint arch]

damn 8x 8” sony pvm CRTs for $32

i may have to cop that

[vapid smelt]

Do it

[flint arch]

oh snap only 1hr away too

PVM-8042Q

[vapid smelt]

https://crtdatabase.com/crts/sony/sony-pvm-8042q

Damn it was $960 back in they day not adjusted for inflation

[flint arch]

yeah that’s insane

[vapid smelt]

1897 today dollars

[flint arch]

i wonder if anyone would buy any if I put them up for $100 on craigslist

i only have a ps1 as for consoles I should really use with one

[strange elk]

next major Win 11 update: wipes bootloader and deletes System32

[strange elk]

Many things I want, CRT is topping that list rn, along with psvita and an iPod video

[strange elk]

But love the design of this especially

Worry about all the issues though, I'm afraid of those TVs far as repair goes

[rain linden]

#1027757333117415424 ?

[fossil frost]

i had both of those until not so long ago.. the vita exploded its own screen out of its own front. and the ipod video just.. caught fire

Hey so my power recently went out and my power supply popped in my pc my friend is trying to work on it but a giant cockroach just crawled out of it

[winged spire]

trashcan

https://www.wikihow.com/Clean-a-House

and this

[fossil frost]

cockroach or not. dont play with PSUs, you will die

[split mountain]

My folks moved into this house a year ago and it was infested they had no idea until they moved in I was away for job corps

We have been trying to fix this issue for as long as I can remember

[vapid smelt]

Gotta bug bomb the whole house and find a hotel for a few days

[oak pier]

this is why you get a prepurchase inspection from a third party inspector not the inspector the real estate agent recommends

[full fossil]

Bruh

It ain’t that hard 😂

[oak pier]

Not everyone has parents that were there and present to teach them life skills

Not knowing life skills isn’t a bad thing, not being willing to learn life skills is

[full fossil]

That not good

[oak pier]

Correct, but you aren’t always in control of your situation

[split mountain]

Yea not my place I just live here again I was away for schooling

Is there by chance any recommendations on what I could do to protect my PC from creepy crawlers other than the obvious of bombing the house and cleaning up (I have spent over 300 sense I been back in the house hold trying to fix the bug issue"

[alpine gale]

This is less of a "tech" question and more of a "building hygiene / cleanliness" question... A great start is ensuring every crack / crevice in the building is properly weather sealed, followed by not leaving garbage or recycling laying around to rot. If bugs are still a big problem after that, it's time to call a professional.

[oak pier]

i love how they say “virtually invisible” then show an image of it being very visible

[winged spire]

https://youtube.com/shorts/D1JvhheHlQY?si=9LtY2Rm7FSh460H8

first delivery

[alpine gale]

It's only virtually invisible, like, when wearing a VR headset.

[harsh quartz]

realistically though, for a screen door or something like that, you wont care too much hose it looks, just does it keep the mosquite bbq out

[harsh quartz]

i had no idea thats how those trailers were loaded up

[cerulean anvil]

ya, pvm and bvm are, or at least, have the potential to be a tiny bit more than just normal crt tv

and they have always been sought after and expensive, even in those times, and its still so hard to repair them you have to know or have to get a guy with experience on them

not uncommon for good ones to go for 500-1000usd up to a few grand

its like seeing a shiny pokemon is the example i'd give

[round bridge]

Anyone play Dispatch?

[round bridge]

Ok

[topaz carbon]

hi

[glass flint]

does anyone know why my rockstar games launcher keeps giving me the failed to connect to rockstar games library service?

[winged spire]

yeah farming sim taughtme that

outerworlds 2 is WELL OPTIMIZED???

a WELL OPTIMIZED game in 2025?

2070 running on med high 1440p with RT on and DLSS set to balacned and it runs really well

while watching youtube on a 2nd monitor and streaming to discorfd

[urban thistle]

Bath time

[upper storm]

do yall think plugging in a 200W amp in a power bar is a good idea

[round bridge]

Yes

[alpine gale]

That depends entirely on whether or not both the powerbar and the circuit serving the AC wall outlet are rated for at least 200w, usually with ~20% overhead as a safety measure.

[upper storm]

nvm the powerbar is rated for 1875W

we good

I do have another question, I have 2 of these towers, I also have a triple monitor setup, should I just put them behind the monitor

[urban thistle]

Forgot old cases are sharp

[upper storm]

or should I put them next to me and use em like headphones

[sturdy dune]

have you tried not doing that

[urban thistle]

[sturdy dune]

here to help 👍

[polar fern]

Anyone here have the ugreen DH2300?

Thinking of getting 2 or the DH4300 plus

Sleepy chat

[alpine gale]

I haven't not either of those models. My Synology DS918+ from 2018 is still going strong.

[polar fern]

Uuu

I was looking at the 2 bay model because of its pricing, and I could start out with one, and then get a second one if I needed. Either one makes sense because I have two computers both of which I want to back up. It might be a good idea to have two separate NAS as the computers are used for completely different things

[alpine gale]

Or 2 separate NAS's - one in your residence, and another off-site in case of fire / flood.

[polar fern]

I could probably put one at my place and one at my girlfriend‘s place. 🤔

[alpine gale]

Yee. And hopefully UGREEN's NAS OS has this feature built-in.

[polar fern]

Which reminds me I actually need to get an external hard drive for my Mac mini. I have repaired and restored a bunch of Apple stuff in the past like hundreds of items, but the components that I need to swap out are soldered on which is not really in my wheelhouse.

I already put 32 gig of RAM in it up from the 8 that it came with

One of the things that makes soldered on or non-removable components worse is that it makes data recovery or even repair in general basically impossible unless you specialize in those types of jobs, so if something happens to the board, then you’ve lost all of your data

[urban thistle]

Cleaning out the hard drive 👍

[polar fern]

Hehehe

[elfin jetty]

I have confined windows 11 to a vm stored on spinning rust in a toaster

[restive lion]

Even if it does id use restic regardless

No sense locking yourself to a proprietary backup system

[zealous grail]

How many months old is the rust

[zealous grail]

Try to get one that says(mac compatible) so you get all the features like encryption and password lock

[restive lion]

Wot

There's no classification for that and anyone who tells you there is is trying to take your money

You just need to format the drive to APFS

[strange elk]

want to set up proxmox so bad but lvs hurts my head

[elfin jetty]

A few years old

[polar fern]

This has not been an issue for like 20 years.

And it’s actually funny because most drives that windows can’t see when mounted macs can

[elfin jetty]

omg I love this

[polar fern]

Uh

Sus

<@&750150305383186585> sus linked file 🤔

[tender glade]

?

[alpine gale]

What file? I see a video above. No files. If you don't see a video, either your Discord client is outdated, or you're running an Operating System that doesn't have the codecs to load the video file...

[polar fern]

iOS discord

👀

[alpine gale]

Womp. Womp. Ask Apple / Discord to write support for WebM videos into iOS.
https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360052829313-WebM-support-on-iOS

[polar fern]

Oh, so it is actually a security thing.

fascinating

[alpine gale]

It's not a security thing. 😉 I mean, any file format could be malicious, but that's not the original reason Apple decided to not support WebM in the first place.
https://appleinsider.com/articles/10/05/20/steve_jobs_says_no_to_googles_vp8_webm_codec

[urban thistle]

Clean 👍

[tender glade]

kind of a lie

u can in browser

just not in app

[alpine gale]

In browser... on iOS or on MacOS?

[tender glade]

on ios

[alpine gale]

Righto, so Apple is deliberately not allowing the same Safari experience within an app? Natively at least?

[polar fern]

@urban thistle I hope you rinsed it off with alcohol

[urban thistle]

Nope 🤣

[polar fern]

Oop

Dissolved solids enters the chat

[tender glade]

haha funny :)

[elfin jetty]

O wtf

Yea it is .webm

heheh

[elfin jetty]

better? its now set to do mp4 cause I never changed the save format

[still tide]

hi

[winged spire]

how many Gs do we think a standard PCB can handle

SMT components

like do yall think 70Gs is too much lmao

[strange elk]

Bruh literally did half the things I did but with candy icons instead

Added the wiggle, transparency, aero borders, think buttons and 10 or 11 icons

CRT effect on window close

[strange elk]

Doesn't even embed in Linux I don't think

Or maybe that's matroska..

[elfin jetty]

Lmaooooo

[elfin jetty]

I want

[strange elk]

I'm off PC. Probably a community thing tho

https://github.com/Schneegans/Burn-My-Windows

Might be it, close at least but I'm p sure I just got it from the downloader in the settings

[elfin jetty]

[winged spire]

Hm

[elfin jetty]

oh wow thanks mate this is gonna be epic

[winged spire]

I will be maxing out at like a theoretical… 80Gs

Bruh

How do I even design a PCB for those forces 🥀 throughhole for every component lol

I assume that would be enough to rip smaller surface mount components off the board?

[elfin jetty]

loving it already lmao

[red hawk]

from what i can see online, SMDs will have no problem with 80Gs

[stark idol]

I looked at the amazon ai product finder for single board computers…

Ai is the future 🚀 🚀

[civic ingot]

agi maybe. ai is just stupid

[smoky badge]

<@&750150305383186585>

[stark idol]

That was a joke message …

[civic ingot]

I know

[sturdy knot]

why have ddr5 ram skyrocketed to heaven

[wind pulsar]

Because AI data centers started bulk buying DDR5 memory and after that people started panic buying RAM before it gets more expensive on top of that =p

[uneven stirrup]

If your eyes can only see 30fps what’s the point in a 120hz monitor

[fossil frost]

"Linux" market share on steam crosses 3%,

[civic fox]

well its getting somewhere i guess lol

[fossil frost]

its been around 1%, and never above 1.4%, for the last 5 years before this year. 3% is a 200-300% increase in linux users

[civic fox]

yep

linux is nice, just can't do what i want it to do. so for now its not something i'll run on my system.

[proud heath]

where do i report a guy

apparently there's someone being unnecessarily mean to me for no reason
