LETS SEE: apple watch or 3d printer as a bday gift? Lol

[sharp cradle]

3d printer probably, i found the apple watch more annoying than good when i had one

[oak pier]

i rather enjoy my apple watch, but i’m already neck deep in the apple ecosystem

[sharp cradle]

it was fine, but i kept having issues with it stealing notifications off my phone

[oak pier]

my mom has that issue, can’t say i ever have

[sharp cradle]

now i have a lovely casio which does everything i need

[urban thistle]

I don’t trust zip ties at 5000 RPM

Better than mustard cables?

[oak pier]

i trust zip ties up to like 10 lbs, how much lift do you think the fan is producing?

[urban thistle]

Not much but it’s more about the vibrations and this was much cheaper at 4 dollars

[oak pier]

holy shit i just realized what you did

you’re gonna get tape juice!

[urban thistle]

I think the electrical tape should be fine. I don’t think the wires really make that much heat.

[oak pier]

case ambient heat would be my concern

if it’s electrical tape it should be fine

most kinds of tape get oozy at like 23c

[urban thistle]

Yeah, the electrical tape won’t change at all unless it goes over 170° this computer is never gonna go over 105

[urban thistle]

Ahhh

[winged spire]

Yeah good luck lmao

Electrical tape goo is a pita

[stark idol]

Yes much better

I use zip ties on my 11000 rpm fans

Well
I did
Before i replaced them recently with screws

[restive lion]

Apple Watches are great when they work

And only for a couple years then the battery shits out

Mine barely lasts 24h

[vapid smelt]

Then you need to deal with a glued sandwich to replace the battery

[restive lion]

Yuppers

I've actually done it before

Not on my own watch mind you

[vapid smelt]

If I fix it says it's difficult I ain't doing it

[restive lion]

The hardest part is not slicing the display cable

[vapid smelt]

Is it the paper thin cables?

[restive lion]

I used a vice to get the screen off once

[restive lion]

Paper thin cables right beside adhesive galore

[echo path]

Nah I respect you now...

Successfully disassembling and repairing an apple watch needs some real skill

[flint portal]

like 3 of em

[restive lion]

To be clear I wouldn't do it on my own devices

The ones I worked on had fucked batteries so there was nothing to lose by trying (except $50 in parts)

[flint portal]

It says a lot that with AppleCare you just get a whole unit replacement instead of repair

[restive lion]

Apple Watches are designed to never be taken apart

[flint portal]

Thanks apple :)

[restive lion]

One turned out, the other I nicked the display cable and it refused to boot properly

The second one I also used the aforementioned vice so that probably had something to do with it

[echo path]

Yeah my watches are the only apple care thing i've got

[echo path]

lmao tho what did you expect tbh

[restive lion]

I mean hey the vice got it open

And it worked when disassembled

I nicked the display cable while putting it back together

[echo path]

Damn

One thing you've gotta credit Apple for is making their insides look great

Even though they don't want you in there

Maybe it's their black PCBs or custom fitting parts... idk

[flint portal]

They need better battery pull tabs

[winged spire]

Atleast the Apple Watch Ultra has good reason for an non serviceable battery

That shits rated to 100m under water

[vapid smelt]

100 meters under ISO standard 22810 BUT ALSO Apple Watch Ultra should not be used for diving below 40 meters. Which is it then Apple?

[winged spire]

The diving app stops working at 50m

The actual device works to 100

It’s a liability issue

Past 50m diving gets very dangerous

Should not be using a device like an Apple watch for it

[echo path]

prob just for peace of mind

[winged spire]

It’s so you can still wear your watch when doing deep diving

[vapid smelt]

No matter the water rating, I would never take a electronic device into salt water unless it has a special case like action cameras have

[winged spire]

Meh

I’m sure they’re using some adhesive that’s chemical resistant enough

Maybe after daily contact for years

I doubt they publish the material anywhere

[vapid smelt]

Water resistance is not a permanent condition and can diminish over time. For additional information see support.apple.com/HT205000. Just because of this fine print I would only do fresh water only

[winged spire]

That’s true just because of time as well

Water intrusion isn’t even game over in modern devices anyhow

Especially those without cameras like the Apple Watch

[vapid smelt]

Wonder what the aging curve of the adhesive is 🤔

[winged spire]

It’s hard to tell

Every couple years they change the adhesive

Not apples to apples when comparing the adhesive age

Old adhesive is definitely harder to remove than new

[kind wagon]

Anyone have a recommendation for a mouspad? I don't need a big one for my whole desk just something less then 12"x12" in size.

[sharp cradle]

artisan has some good square ones, somewhat pricey however

the aqua pads from https://shop.x-raypad.com/ are also pretty solid on the cheaper end

(my knowledge is also being pulled from covid-era memories, so market probably has changed as well lmao)

still not planning to downgrade to windows 11 :)

[sharp cradle]

you will want to in the next few years

[hushed furnace]

i will want to switch to linux yes

[sharp cradle]

if you dont need windows then yes do that

EOL OS is not the move however as it ages more

[hushed furnace]

i see, i used to dualboot windows and pop os a few years ago

now i just purely use windows but i can freely switch to linux if needed

[sharp cradle]

why not now?

[hushed furnace]

because i dont see a need to change my os now

[sharp cradle]

i mean do you have ESU

[hushed furnace]

yeah i was typing that

i have no idea how long its for, but as long as i have it, i dont need to switch

i only have found one real issue with my laptop that i should have forseen

...when i was in windows 11 i had lenovo vantage and i set the battery to not charge past 80%

it seems that setting followed me into linux despite a fresh drivewipe lol...

and afaik there is no way to fix that!

if someone installed a mic in my room (which is hilarious becuase my laptop has a mic built in nevermind my smartphone!) theyd just hear me argue with my mom

You try clearing cmos? Adding new sticks it likely will need to reconfig. (If not a button taking the battery out for 10 seconds with a demo on yt)

[rare otter]

Ill try tomorrow. Im tired rn and I just upgraded my main build to have a 2 tb mechanical hardrive go along side my 1 tb ssd

The slot or the stick itself itd seem

Happens with old tech

[rare otter]

The stick ain't dead

It works fine with my dell optiplex

With the pc off id try the next slot, and continue with all

[rare otter]

I tried every single slot

Waitni just put the ram jn the last slot

Now something different is happeneing

I hear 6 beeps

[full fossil]

hey y'all what is your opinion (mind you going to be doing audio and video editing so mac is prefered due to it's audio stack just being less broken then windows is)

on a M2 max macbook pro

32GB ram and a 1TB SSD

and I'll also be running VMs

mainly a windows one using UTM

[harsh quartz]

It sure is a Mac

[full fossil]

and also looking for a 14 inch

[full fossil]

hey again the audio stack (and bluetooth stack) are so much less broken then windows like I can find devices unlike Win 11

[harsh quartz]

Okay. So it sure is a Mac.

[full fossil]

sup

[upbeat ermine]

i can find devices on windows

[full fossil]

then it broke on some bluetooth cards but not others

[north escarp]

I can't even find myself its okii

[harsh quartz]

I can’t find the ability to care :(

[north escarp]

[harsh quartz]

32gb seems low for running VMs but it sure is a Mac

[north escarp]

Solid opinion, I to believe it is a mac yiss

[full fossil]

okay what size would you recommend? /gen

[harsh quartz]

Also it’s a Mac so I guess 32gb is actually 64gb right?

[full fossil]

and tbh the most I'm running is Kali and Windows

[north escarp]

Latest and best you can afford ofc, also looking up youtubes of peeps using your softwares with x models for review. So you'll know what to expect

[full fossil]

Kali for when I become a ethical hacker and Windows for not gaming because most everything I play is mac compatable

[full fossil]

okay well atm I live off $427.50 USD a month so it's going to take me a bit to save

[north escarp]

[full fossil]

ya I'll also when ready see if anyone has any for sale locally

right now really want to save for some nice headphones

why the facepalm?

if it works, it works

[north escarp]

Thats bless/pray

[full fossil]

oh

and found one almost immediately for 1200

lol

even though it's a m2 pro

not a m2 max but oh well

has 2 TB of storage and 32GB of ram

so in some ways better then the more expensive one

I'll probably save for around 6 months or around there and have a friend help with a hundred or 2

I love it sellers take clear pictures

I also found one with a 5060 for a similar price

I don't know what to get

[hoary cairn]

@sonic rose Do you need a laptop or is a desktop ok?

[sonic rose]

I need a laptop for now , I will get a desktop next year .

I need a laptop to play bf6 at 60 fps , and normal esport games like cs and dota, So I feel like the 5050 will be enough

But i saw some people telling me to check the graphic card w power , I have no clue how to find that

[hoary cairn]

The specs for BF6 is the 3060ti which is more powerful than the 5050 in real world tests. https://howmanyfps.com/graphics-cards/comparisons/geforce-rtx-5050-vs-geforce-rtx-3060-ti

And your laptop will have the mobile card in it which will be less powerful than what is shown here

[restive lion]

I miss FP chat

[sonic rose]

I tried to look for some 3070 ti laptops, but they are nit fir sale in my country , and they are also super expensive

[hoary cairn]

Look at this. Your 1% lows will be 46fps https://howmanyfps.com/graphics-cards/comparisons/geforce-rtx-5050-mobile-vs-geforce-rtx-5060-mobile/battlefield-6

[sonic rose]

but at ehat quality , I can just lower everything, I really can't get a proper pc now, I need a laptop... and I live in Romania the prices are insane for no reason....

A laptop that is 800 dollars in US, is like 1700 eur here...

I have the perfect solution

[winged spire]

That door probably weighs about the same as the car

These are hipster cars sold mostly in Italy 😄 , They have a history for this

They love the Abarth style cars

[winged spire]

It goes 35mph and has 40 miles of range

[serene tulip]

bro looks like he wants to kill you 😭

[quartz shuttle]

Those are the italians

[quartz shuttle]

Abarths are goated

And tf you mean Italians like abarth style cars

They are good yes

[sonic rose]

That's what i said , the Italians love them

[quartz shuttle]

But the Italians like cars like them Alfa’s

[quartz shuttle]

(Me made mistake, correction is here now mb)

[quartz shuttle]

And yea Italians like smol cars

[sonic rose]

Usually the Italians don't go for super reliable cars , the rest of Europe will gladly take a booring Golf that can do 200k km , but the Italians usually go for Style a lot more

[winged spire]

they enjoy poor quality cars I guess

style isnt the opposite of reliability lol

[oak pier]

cool looking, poor quality cars

[sonic rose]

I lived in Italy for 2 years, they are lovable weird people

[winged spire]

an unreliable car is a poor quality car reguardless of how it looks

you can do both lol

[quartz shuttle]

Yea and ngl I would aswell, it’s changed tho I was in Italy over the summer and istg I didn’t see a single Alfa (they are reliable don’t get me wrong), Ferrari (not exactly reliable) or so

[quartz shuttle]

Who sais poor quality?

[sonic rose]

Usually when you think of Fiat and Alpha Romeo the first thing you think is not reliability

[quartz shuttle]

Ferrari isn’t the greatest

[winged spire]

me

unreliable cars are poor quality cars

[quartz shuttle]

That yes, but who sais italian cars ante unreliable? (Except Ferrari)

[winged spire]

the other guy did

[sonic rose]

Up to about 2014 Alpha romeo were known for having poor electrical wiring , i don't know how they are now

[winged spire]

if the ability to do 200k km is "super reliable" you must be working with some INSANELY shitty cars

[quartz shuttle]

I mean, idk where he comes from, but us Europeans take reliability over looks 99% of the time

And don’t get me started on BMW’s leak oil and shi

Thats simply not true

[split swift]

diesel cars

[winged spire]

german cars arent reliable either for a completely different reason

[split swift]

while US only has diesel trucks

[quartz shuttle]

Which one?

[sonic rose]

Usually when you talk about reliability it' how many km it does during the first 5 years without any major breakdows , that's how they masure it .

If you live in US , It's hard to get parts and mechanics that want to work on German cars , especially Audi

[quartz shuttle]

Cant say anything to that as I live in Germany, and no German car I’ve ever had failed on me except a bmw e39 once, and idk how but I’ve gotten a Volvo to break on me

[sonic rose]

It happens , I had a wv passat from 2007 and I had 470k km on it and it was still ok. I work as a mechanic and I was in the US for training and the labour cost there is Insane even compared with EU , I don't think there is a single job on a car that's less than 100 dollars in Labour

[naive niche]

I recently replaced my cpu cooler, motherboard and cpu. Everything works fine but my cooler has some cables that are touching it. It is almost impossible for me to manage these cables so they dont touch the cooler since they are so short. Does anyone know if this can become problematic?

[fossil frost]

as long as nothing is moving against the cables, and they are just resting on the cooler.. its fine

movement will cause the cooler to wear through them

the cooler will never get hot enough to soften the plastic of the cables, nevermind melt it

[naive niche]

Alright thanks, it's smelling a bit wierd, almost like cables but i guess thats just my nose being used to dust and dirt rather than new parts

[fossil frost]

VOCs are in everything, and they get released when they get warm, but then you run out of VOCs.. all new rubber/plastic is especially potent

[alpine gale]

So long as the cables aren't pulling on the heatsink, this should be fine. If you take a clear, in focus, well lit photo of the inside of your computer, we might be able to make a recommendation.

[oak pier]

pesky VOCs

[outer elbow]

hello pookies!

[plain gale]

if thats a version of the citroen ami, i kinda like that car ngl, for city traffic only its great ngl. atleast here in germany, biking isnt that great as in places like the netherlands and a full size car nowadays is getting way too big for some streets. also much more affordable ofc than a full size car

People are mad at me for already having 192GB of RAM a year earlier before the price hike

[rare otter]

@north escarp I got my gpu in but i hear 6 beeps

[prime oar]

Did you properly plug in power?

Make sure it's snug

if all else fails bios reset

Also make sure card is seated securely

[rare otter]

The power on the card?

Im confused

The way you worded it has me confused

[prime oar]

yes

[rare otter]

The power is fine. The fans are spinning

[prime oar]

Is it slotted properly in PCIE

What motherboard and chipset

and how many NVME's do you have

[rare otter]

Im on a dell xps 9100 with an upgraded psu

That I ripped out of a asus g11cd

[prime oar]

OOOOF

H110 Chipset

[rare otter]

What about it?

[prime oar]

No NVME

[rare otter]

I dont think that should effect the gpu in any way

[prime oar]

Which GPU?

[rare otter]

Gtx 960 2 gig varient

Evga

[prime oar]

Do you have an IGPU?

if so load off that and boot into an nvidia tester

[rare otter]

I dont

[fossil dirge]

I ordered the Alienware Aurora 16 for my sister from Dell

Now I have to wait for it to come

[rare otter]

Ok

Cool

Im just truna get my desktop to work

[prime oar]

You may need another gpu to diagnose it

problem is you have no display out

sounds like a bricked vgpu bios

[rare otter]

Luckily I started to collect gpus

[prime oar]

Dual load 2 GPU's into 1 system

Are there any switches on the 960?
Like Dual-Bios

or performance and quiet mode

[rare otter]

What would they look like

[prime oar]

A small switch on the GPU itself usually front facing

what is the actual brand and type of 960

[rare otter]

Evga

[prime oar]

This one?

If it's this exact one it has a dual bios

[prime oar]

Flip it

take pic of back should have a barcode on it

Prolly a superclocked?

[rare otter]

Sent

[prime oar]

No dual bios

your gonna need a 2nd one

in the same system

and some software tools either to boot with to reflash bios or windows to reflash it

if it's still even detectable

If I had it in my hands I could just aligator clip flash it

[rare otter]

A 2nd gtx 960

?

[prime oar]

doesn't have to be it just needs to be a good working one

Ideally not the same series card

as to not get confused

[rare otter]

Radeon wx 2100?

[prime oar]

yeah that'll work

[thin warren]

i need help figuring out a web cam. idk were to post my question

[prime oar]

linux is a good use to check pcie enumeration for all devices

[north escarp]

Yeah that builds got a few things going on, could be the board, could be psu, could be the gpu. Outside of just reseating the gpu, the earlier issue of over half the ram slots not working is concerning. Saving up for a new laptop/cheap desktop is recommended with a bit newer parts :/

Testing another gpu myte work as well 🍀

[near oak]

hi there

[rare otter]

Ight

[prime oar]

@north escarp I warned the world that RAM would jack up earlier this year when I bought 192GB of RAM for 500 USD

[rare otter]

Now wbag do i do

[prime oar]

Display out from the AMD see if you boot

into literally any OS
Linux preferable but if not experienced enough windows can work

[thin warren]

why buy 192 gb ram? i'm guessing it's for a server

[rare otter]

Lemme install windows first

[prime oar]

Virtualization and Building FPGA's and other exotic stuff

[open crag]

Is $200usd a good price for a xfx rx6700xt?

[faint yoke]

check eBay, FB marketplace, etc

damn, is that for the VCU118? Why not the VHK158 for the same $15k?

[rare otter]

⁶@prime oar still up?

I got windows installed

[tardy terrace]

YOOOO I want one

[wooden steeple]

Genuine question based on the recent writers videos and tech upgrade videos does everyone working at LTT have no idea how to do even the most basic of grooming practices. Everyone looks homeless

[tardy terrace]

Most nerds focus on other things

Also sometimes when you're neurospicy it's just not a priority to be like this groomed up chadly greasy-hair mf

[wooden steeple]

I am not saying that you need to be Rico suave.... I mean basics like shaving your weak facial hair and not wearing a t-shirt with stains on it

[tardy terrace]

Oh yeah that's just laziness

[winged spire]

It’s 10k

You can get a decent actual car for that much

[tardy terrace]

yeah okay but I want a little baby car

[winged spire]

Kei cars are like 3k plus duties

[tardy terrace]

I'm also looking at those

I should really go to the dmv and inquire about the street-legality of them here

[winged spire]

They might have just legalized them

Emissions wise they pass now

[wooden steeple]

As long as it's old enough to be a classic vehicle safety rules don't apply

[winged spire]

CAFE standard are gone

[wooden steeple]

Atleast in America

[tardy terrace]

in oregon they're restricted from highways over 65mph which is kiiinda gay but also not bad

[winged spire]

Most can’t get above 65 anyway lol

[tardy terrace]

yeah I don't think i wanna experience the death rattles of a kei truck lmao

[winged spire]

They’re not legal here

Hopefully that changes now

[tardy terrace]

They 100% should be road legal

they're small and compact and great city commuters

[rare otter]

Anyone able to help with my gpu issue?

My 960 2 gig gets black screen and beeps

But my other gpu the radeon wx 2100 works fine

[tardy terrace]

the 960 is dead

pls throw it away already

[rare otter]

Are you saying the 960 as a card in general or just my 960

[tardy terrace]

Both

[rare otter]

But the fans are spinning

Strange

[old quail]

don’t be mean dude, I didn’t do nothing wrong to you. Ur the one attention seeking cause ur over here tryna act like Timmy tough knuckles gng 😭🥀

[tardy terrace]

Nah you're posting about your shallow ass getting no bitches because your game is weak in a tech discord

[north escarp]

https://tenor.com/view/batman-derp-tongue-out-gif-8169679

[tardy terrace]

"what do I say to someone I'm not attracted to after they e-cheated on me" fucking nothing lmao

[north escarp]

Exactly you thrive on your own and give them no more of your time

[tardy terrace]

I more or less just "date" my friends tbh

IRL friends who subscribe to the friends++ package I like going to movies/dinner/adventures with

casual, few strings attached, people can come & go and there's never any hard feelings

[old quail]

Yeah well aren’t u supposed to destroy cheaters and make them not cheat again? Not just say shit?

Ur clearly stupid

[tardy terrace]

I think you're just incredibly inexperienced lmao

Why cause more drama

Why expend the energy

[old quail]

Bro I’m not being toxic to you, why you gotta be toxic to me

there’s no need for it

[tardy terrace]

this isn't toxicity, this is honesty

[old quail]

I don’t care, it’s still rude

[old quail]

This is rude

No matter how you look at it, it still is

[tardy terrace]

You're shallow because you immediately wanted nothing to do with the person because "she ugly fr"

[old quail]

Don’t be saying no funny shit, this is how people some people get their pc’s destroyed or their lives lost cause they think talking shit on the internet wont get them in trouble

[tardy terrace]

ok tell me how you're going to remotely destroy my pc lmao

[alpine gale]

There are a million things society says we're "supposed" to do. IMO, the best thing I do in life is take care of myself by avoiding situations that put myself in harm's way unnecessarily whenever possible. It's not my responsibility to change other people; humans are fickle and life's way too short. But that's just me. 🤷 If you feel like it's healthy to respond to this person, go ham. It's unlikely to make this person change, but you do you.

[old quail]

When did I say specifically myself would do it? When did I say that?

I’m saying it could happen, you never know

[tardy terrace]

It's not a thing that happens lmao

[old quail]

Yes it is

Don’t you see those people getting pulled up on outside their house and they get shot

[tardy terrace]

okay, explain that

that is wildly different to "getting their pcs destroyed"

[old quail]

Or streamers pc’s being hacked on live

[gilded quest]

Why has pub chat infected TC1

[old quail]

Or destroyed

[gilded quest]

Nvm I'm fucking lost

[tardy terrace]

yeah sorry you're not remotely destroying hardware

[old quail]

I never said I was going to do it

Ur chronically stupid

[tardy terrace]

I'm saying "you're" as a broad term, not directly at you

[old quail]

Hard to know that on text and not on vc right?

[tardy terrace]

The fact that you're this sensitive over the subject leads me to think that you really just shouldn't bring it up here anymore tbh

[old quail]

Nobody says “your” that means a group of people, when it’s only 2 people in an argument not involving anybody else but themselves. That’s why we have the phrase/words “nobody” and “you guys”.

[tardy terrace]

ok captain semantics

[old quail]

I already did, it too stupid to understand it tho

I proved i wrong, told you what you should do

[tardy terrace]

Either way, don't engage with the person messaging you back lmao, you literally created a more toxic situation by asking us than just ignoring the person and moving on

[old quail]

I wouldn’t have to be toxic if you wouldn’t have to be toxic to me first

It’s basically self defense speech

[tardy terrace]

You can call me stupid all you want, I still know I know more than you on this subject and that's not going to change your stance or defense lmao

[old quail]

So your saying I give up but still know more? Why aren’t you trying if it’s so easy for you

[tardy terrace]

Because you're unwilling to listen to the bigger message

so why waste my time on it?

[old quail]

I explained everything u wanted me to

What else could I do

[vapid smelt]

E dating is the same as dating a AI change my mind

[tardy terrace]

god fucking warship

no dude I'm wrapping around back to your e-dating problem

[old quail]

don’t curse in the lords name

say sorry rn

[tardy terrace]

fuck god hail satan

[old quail]

Damn

Aight

[old quail]

Ong

This guy clearly stupid asf

[tardy terrace]

Not a guy, and you repeatedly calling me stupid is losing its zing

Can you come up with a better insult, you pile of fermented dogshit?

[vapid smelt]

im the only guy here why you beefing with me

[old quail]

There’s no winning and losing, it’s simple talk

[old quail]

I’m not, talking about Peyton. You’re all good man.

[tardy terrace]

You're a special kinda special aren't you

[old quail]

No im just nice and i make friends easily, i dont be rude to people unless they are to me

[tardy terrace]

Maybe don't seek validation through e-dating then

[old quail]

sorry, but, it’s an off-topic chat, quit being a discord Karen

💀

[tardy terrace]

no, #off-topic is off topic

[old quail]

yeah

[tardy terrace]

If you're gonna try and be technical can you at least be right

[old quail]

And ruining a cheater is off topic

[north escarp]

Oiii

[split swift]

Sup

[tardy terrace]

dude its e-dating you're taking it way too seriously

[north escarp]

You guys this much energy was not needed

[old quail]

Sup man

[north escarp]

Better days to come lad

[old quail]

I wouldn’t have to be if you wouldn’t leave me alone

[tardy terrace]

I have monster in me there is literally infinite energy rn

[north escarp]

Silly geese the lot of ya

[old quail]

Same as me

I drank a root beer than a mango loco

[north escarp]

How was the day otherwise?

[old quail]

Shitty

[north escarp]

Mango loco sounds interesting, and why?

[old quail]

cause it was

[tardy terrace]

Dude, you're the one who posted about your e-dating issues in a TECH DISCORD and then proceeded to defend you wanting to run a fucking stupid smear campaign to get back at the girl that you aren't even into and have never seen in-person

[north escarp]

I like the mangos

Now peytons theyre already struggling ❤️

[old quail]

can u like stfu and drop the subject

[split swift]

Speaking of infinite energy, i accidentally grabbed the high caffeine water flavor squirt bottles and felt like my heart was gonna beat out of my chest for the past 30 hours. Sleeping was a nightmare and i felt sick

[vapid smelt]

just date a AI is the same thing and you always win arguments

[north escarp]

Just digging holes in here xD

[old quail]

Ikrr loll

[north escarp]

Never tell a lady to be quiet xD

[tardy terrace]

I can feel my heartbeat in my ears

[old quail]

LOLL

[north escarp]

Silly but non the less

[tardy terrace]

I even had to turn the heat off I'm so warm right now

[split swift]

It affected me so bad bc i dont actively consume alot of caffeine besides the little bit i get via tea

[vapid smelt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34CZjsEI1yU diggy diggy hole?

[split swift]

Classic

[tardy terrace]

its like telling a woman to calm down when you know she has a right to be upset

[north escarp]

[alpine gale]

You can also just date an oscillating fan, so long as you only ask it questions a fan would say "no" to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHdTceT_i3Y

[north escarp]

In 10 years myte be a thing lol, those Chinese models are uhh getting fancy

Lmao

[tardy terrace]

[tardy terrace]

I find it interesting that every time I see you post "sup" the chat just dies

[north escarp]

Im just lurking alittle everywhere while I try to get through this last night of uncertainty

[full fossil]

[covert phoenix]

Awesome song

[tardy terrace]

[north escarp]

Hands wont stop sweating, feeling super anxious. Id give the world

[vapid smelt]

[tardy terrace]

[north escarp]

Its alot coops, but just missing my kid. And trying square some craziness. Tomorrow ill at least be able to see her after no matter what

[north escarp]

Literally me this whole last month ive been a mess

[rare otter]

@north escarp hey um

When I plug in my gtx 960 into my dell xps 9100 prebuilt I hear 6 beaps

The fans spin but there's no display at all

[north escarp]

Yeah sounds like it toasted out, happens old gpus especially with the other gpu working. Old capacitors etc will getcha

[winged spire]

Bro got the knives out

[north escarp]

Gets of dooOom

[rare otter]

So. Its dead

[crimson basalt]

bobcat

[tardy terrace]

I been thinkin about you & your situation the whole time 💕

[north escarp]

If you re inserted it and its still not working but the other is. Id assume so, or some kinda power issue (the power supply i assume is also olds)

[rare otter]

I put it in my main build

Didn't work either

Ima kill me a reseller lmao

[north escarp]

Id rather move the moon then to go through all this again

[gilded quest]

How much was it

[rare otter]

34$

Like bruh. I could of went out to eat

[gilded quest]

I can sell my 960 for $34? Damnmm

[north escarp]

Ive yearned every day like a plant stuck under the concrete trying to push through

[rare otter]

I got 2 qualdro p620 cards luckily

[tardy terrace]

I'd rather use a 960 for target practice

[rare otter]

But I dont have a mini displayport adapatwr yet

[north escarp]

Awaiting the sun and rain only to feel the pain

[rare otter]

Its really not that bad of a card

[tardy terrace]

🫂

[tardy terrace]

It's 2025. it's bad

[rare otter]

Depends on the games you play tbh

Not everyone is playing cyberpunk 2077 with maximum settings lmao

[gilded quest]

It was mediocre in games contemporary to the GTX 960

[rare otter]

For some people a gtx 960 can do just fine especially for games like forza

[tardy terrace]

fuckin' how

are you playing at 600p??

[rare otter]

Nah 1080p low to mid settings I got an fps from 50 to 60 back when I had my old gtx 960

[gilded quest]

I feel like 60 class during 900 series was oddly unpopular

[rare otter]

Maybe it was my driver's

But like still.

[gilded quest]

Probably cause the 970 was relatively cheap

[rare otter]

It could game ight. I had fond memories of that card

[gilded quest]

I have fond memories of my 960

But these days it isn't even suitable for plex

[tardy terrace]

I can feel my blood pressure in my goddamn carotid

[rare otter]

Holup ima see if I can find a video that kinda backs up what im saying

[tardy terrace]

you ever have your heart beat so strong you can hear the bloodflow in your head and it sounds turbulent as fuck?

[gilded quest]

https://tenor.com/view/monster-energy-drink-smoke-can-gif-13405098252229884318

[vapid smelt]

wait the 960 only had 2gb of vram?

[rare otter]

https://youtu.be/7G-qMb031tk?si=WHLQ0HxyYhYOL79_

I had the 4 gig variant of the card and got around 50 - 60

On mid settings

This video shows the 2 gig version of the card being used

And it runs the game decently on medium and low settings

May I mind you 2 GIGS OF VRAM

Never under estimate the power of the 960

Lmao 🤣

[gilded quest]

I think we all estimated it appropriately

[alpine gale]

As someone who owns a GTX 950... yeah the 960 isn't very performant in 2025. My laptop has an i7-12700H and an A370M that perform similarly albeit a bit slower than the 950 or 960 GPUs. Not saying don't use what you have, especially if you don't play anything demanding or have an extremely limited budget, but... Integrated is often better these days than spending $50 on a 10 year old GPU. 🤷
https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/compare/4748vs3295vs3114/Intel-Arc-A370M-vs-GeForce-GTX-950-vs-GeForce-GTX-960

[rare otter]

Idk its a solid budget card nowadays

[tardy terrace]

I CAN FEEL TIME

[vapid smelt]

the gtx 950 was my first gpu

[rare otter]

Like if you have less than 50$

[tardy terrace]

This second monster may have been a mistake

[north escarp]

Was in the middle of tech country when the monster took hold

[tardy terrace]

butt fuck it

FULL CHOOCH

[north escarp]

XD

[vapid smelt]

whos butt?!

https://tenor.com/view/good-boys-yasss-smiles-gif-14810172

[tardy terrace]

I've got something in my pocket for youuu

why don't you reach on inside, and see what it is~

fucking butters I swear to god

[vapid smelt]

i dont want your used needles

[rare otter]

I wanna make a joke but this server it pg 13

[gilded quest]

10 series isn't much more in cost but is significantly higher in performance

[rare otter]

So im just gonna.......

[tardy terrace]

I have never once considered reusing a needle

[rare otter]

True. My 1060 runs excellent

[gilded quest]

GPUs tend to hit a pricing floor and kind of stagnate

[tardy terrace]

dude injection supplies are mega cheap

[rare otter]

But im not gonna act like the gtx 960 is a piece of shit

Cause it really isn't. Especially for the cost nowadays

I mean you can play forza on high settings and if your ok with like 40 fps your cool

[gilded quest]

You could get a couple large 5 topping pizzas instead tho
Have you considered that

[rare otter]

Any card that can do that at 1080p is chilln

Maybe its nostalgia but ima defend that card always. Even if my new 960 turned out to be a dud

[vapid smelt]

speaking of injections i need a new epi pen

the one in me car is a a bit old

and been in too many hot and cold cycles

.... thanks epipen.com

[gilded quest]

Can I try your old one

[tardy terrace]

Is this what adrenaline junkies do if they're stuck at home?

[gilded quest]

I'm the opposite of an adrenaline junkie

[north escarp]

The calm is good

[tardy terrace]

I get real fighty if I've got a bunch of arenaline

[winged spire]

Test tomorrow

[vapid smelt]

dont recommend i shot myself in the thumb with a old one as a kid just fucking around with it the thick needle went all the way through and touched my nail

[tardy terrace]

like I'll be a jittery, tensed up mess of pent-up left-right hooks

[subtle stag]

Im sorry if this is the wrong channel but i recall their being a transflag colors inspired ltt bottle before the cut back, is there any chance of that retiring as a timing of the year thing or limited run?

[gilded quest]

So pretty sure it's supposed to go in the thigh or something

[vapid smelt]

yeah...

[winged spire]

Do i pop one of my adderalls and do an all nighter or do i wake up at like 5 an and study then

[tardy terrace]

its an intramuscular needle soooo

[winged spire]

Lmao

I already got the monster ready

[tardy terrace]

its meant to go through the outer thigh fat layer and rapidly dump speedy juice into your thigh muscles

[oak pier]

[oak pier]

[tardy terrace]

yeah for me it 100% did not work

[north escarp]

[oak pier]

weird

my doc warned me the exact opposite could happen, that i could have a loss of appetite

[gilded quest]

I've never left concerta

[tardy terrace]

I took it from 10 to 14 and it was misery but I was medicated so the school was happy 🙄

[oak pier]

i was content with ritalin, other than 130-140bpm resting heart rate

[north escarp]

Hoping it helps but definitely reach out to your doctor should it make you feel worse or any type of way ❤️

[oak pier]

even higher if i dare have a small cup of coffee

[tardy terrace]

I'm 1 1/2 monsters in and my heartrate is at a chill 70bpm what

[oak pier]

my resting heart rate on days i don’t take my meds is 60-70

[subtle stag]

I'm still on the oral tit tacs for now unless they change me to the transmission fuild or ..... Sleeping pill brain joke make yes...... Hotfix-patchingirlin

[gilded quest]

I miss the appetite suppression when I was on 50mg doeses

[oak pier]

so >2x increase from the meds

[vapid smelt]

hey you might get lucky (from mayo clinic site)

[north escarp]

My heart rates around 149/90 rn not sure if good or bad

[oak pier]

depersonalization is scary

[tardy terrace]

I'm 3 years of hrt in spring next year, I was on titty skittles for a year before my dr transfered me to adult transgender care specialty and she was like "bitch you're getting on the juice"

[oak pier]

nothing felt real

[subtle stag]

This channel fun to try and follow while taking a sleeping pill i hate because of how weird it makes my grandma when she does

[vapid smelt]

[gilded quest]

Oh fuck did I take my melatonin

[tardy terrace]

FUCK I forgot to order melatonin

[oak pier]

ritalin is also methylphenidate

[gilded quest]

Always and forever

[oak pier]

LOL, are we all on melatonin?

[vapid smelt]

yes

[oak pier]

is this a universal adhd thing?

[gilded quest]

I used to hit the zzzquil daily

[restive lion]

Used to be back when I took adhd meds

[tardy terrace]

Y'all wanna see some wild shit?

[oak pier]

ofc

[north escarp]

I dont take nothing, except a multivitamin sometimes

[restive lion]

ADHD meds make sleep fucking impossible

[hushed hearth]

I have tachycardia, my heart rate is always high

[gilded quest]

Absolutely not

My roommate is an excellent sleeper

But I've always struggled with sleep

Gemini is giving a year of free pro subscription to students

Based

[blazing beacon]

dont forget to cancel before the year is over

[winged spire]

I got a year of free ChatGPT pro last year for being a student

Unfortunately gonna loose my chat history with ChatGPT

[blazing beacon]

dont wanna fund the bubble lol after all that bubble needs to pop

[winged spire]

No

[blazing beacon]

really even the free version has it

[winged spire]

The ai bubble popping will be catastrophic

[winged spire]

?

[blazing beacon]

nah it needs to pop it will and the sooner the better

[blazing beacon]

history

[winged spire]

It will be a horrible horrible time

[blazing beacon]

its already a horrible time because of ai

[winged spire]

The nasdaq will drop 30% overnight

[blazing beacon]

good i dont care

[winged spire]

You’re a child right?

Adults care lol

[blazing beacon]

no but i dont have stocks

the bubble needs to pop as for job losses we already have those due to ai

[winged spire]

Ok bud

[blazing beacon]

btw the bubble WILL pop the amount of profit they would need to earn to justify the spending is more then amazon,meta,google,microsoft,apple combined by like 2x

its such a LARGE sum of money that its impossible

[winged spire]

🥱

[blazing beacon]

even sam altman has refered to it as a bubble my dude everyone knows it will pop

when is the question not if

[winged spire]

You’re literally talking to yourself right now

Never said it won’t pop, I simply said it will be horrible for everyone with any actual assets at all so apparently not you

[blazing beacon]

im broke i dont have assets so good maybe assets should loose value some and wages should go up for once instead the economy is needing a wake up call

[winged spire]

You should take an economics class lol

[blazing beacon]

the only ones who like this current state are in the top 10%

[winged spire]

Everyone getting poorer will not magically make the economy better

[blazing beacon]

2/3rds of the US are paycheck to paycheck while companies make record profits because assets are valued so highly while wages stagnate for decades maybe if the top 10% feel some burn they will actually do something

[winged spire]

Do you think that wages aren’t going up because nvidia is valued very highly?

[blazing beacon]

it isnt helping but it is making power and water cost more

and hardware

[winged spire]

Do you know what will make water and power harder to pay for?

Everyone’s savings going down 30%

[blazing beacon]

we would be in a RECESSION if it wasnt for the sheer AI spend

[winged spire]

And you’re actively calling for said recession

[blazing beacon]

if we got classified the government would actually have to take action

[blazing beacon]

we are in one already its just not classified because of the AI companies thats worse

[winged spire]

Do you know what a recession is

[blazing beacon]

most people dont have savings anymore

[winged spire]

Delusional

[harsh quartz]

good.

[blazing beacon]

1 area in a bubble doesnt counter that people are still feeling recession effects because AI isnt making jobs

[winged spire]

The WORLDS retirement fund is the s&p 500

This wouldn’t even be a us thing, it would be global

[winged spire]

You aren’t answering the question

[blazing beacon]

i dont care at this point the economy is already screwed pretending its good only makes the problem worse

[tardy terrace]

have you tried Getting Good™

[winged spire]

I will pay for an macroeconomic class at your local community college please 🙏

Everyone’s savings dropping dozens of points overnight will not fix the affordability crisis idk why or with what methods you seem to think it will

[blazing beacon]

im saying the pain will be worthwhile to course correct rather then letting this go on that is also hurting people

[blazing beacon]

maybe they shouldnt be dumping money into AI

[winged spire]

What

Do you know what the s&p 500 is

[blazing beacon]

maybe the pension funds shouldnt be going all in on AI

[winged spire]

Do you know what the nasdaq is

The s&p 500 is damn near 100 years old

[blazing beacon]

i do it doesnt matter maybe when you get savings it should actually be held and not invested into risky stuff

[winged spire]

My god

[blazing beacon]

yea and its become warped

[harsh quartz]

i dont have money in it, fuck it, let it burn

[blazing beacon]

same if 2/3rds of people are barely making ends meet the system has failed

[winged spire]

Let me know 🤷

[winged spire]

It will especially be bad for old people as that’s where nearly everyone’s retirement funds are

[blazing beacon]

so your advice is to let the bubble keep growing and growing? because the people with stuff might get hurt

[harsh quartz]

they pulled the ladder up behind them, lets yank the ladder back down

[winged spire]

A 20 year old having their retirement savings hit isn’t that bad but a 60 year old .. rough

[winged spire]

Massive oversimplification

[blazing beacon]

why are retirement funds in the stock market and not in savings hmm?

[blazing beacon]

but still true

[winged spire]

Dude I literally don’t have time to explain fundamentally how to save for retirement to you

[harsh quartz]

that 60 year old also has assets to offset the losses, and social safety nets that younger generations dont/wont have

[blazing beacon]

i cant save for retirement im one of those 2/3rds of people who is paycheck to paycheck saving is a luxury the fact you dont understand that shows your already in a good state

[winged spire]

You are the only one that doesn’t understand the things being typed here

[harsh quartz]

this is an insane statement

[blazing beacon]

i just think the system needs to change is all i know its insane its mainly a point that maybe the stock market shouldn't control the ENTIRE economy at this point its a huge flaw that has gotten out of hand infinite growth

[winged spire]

You can’t not understand compound interest and still argue about the socioeconomic effects of a tech bubble popping in the same conversation

[harsh quartz]

the stock market doesnt control the economy, it is, in theory, a reflection of the economy. the government should, SHOULD, control the economy

[blazing beacon]

compound interest benefits the people with the most money the most 3% on 100k isnt much 3% on 10 million is a lot

[winged spire]

Jesus Christ

[tardy terrace]

Oh cool we're rocking the same font

[winged spire]

It’s a PERCENTAGE

[harsh quartz]

dont bring him into this

[winged spire]

that’s how a PERCENTAGE works

[blazing beacon]

yea sadly Raegan made sure that didnt happen deregulation sure helped us a lot

[winged spire]

50$ a month for 40 years is over 150k in the s&p

[blazing beacon]

and how much will inflation affect that in 40 years

look at inflation in the past 5

[winged spire]

unprecedented historical events

Look at the past 5 years

Yeah no, let’s look at the 100 previous years

[harsh quartz]

keep all your money in crypto

[winged spire]

3-5% inflation

[harsh quartz]

just put it all in trump coin

[blazing beacon]

5 years is half a decade and its not slowed its gotten worse thats no longer unprecedented

[tardy terrace]

IRAs lets goooo

[blazing beacon]

LOL because they STOP counting stuff that goes too high

[winged spire]

What

[blazing beacon]

its clearly not 3-5% anyone who lives in the real world and sees with their EYES can tell that not what the government says

[winged spire]

Do you know what inflation is

[harsh quartz]

i too like funding the irish republican army

[tardy terrace]

what no

[winged spire]

Font?

[tardy terrace]

name font

[winged spire]

Oh

[harsh quartz]

i need to look into IRAs but am gonna try to wait out the bubble

[winged spire]

It doesn’t show up in here

[tardy terrace]

Yes it do

[harsh quartz]

it does for us

[winged spire]

Is that a setting

[harsh quartz]

it seems to be random on discord. also it doesnt show on mobile. but seems to 50/50 on desktop

[tardy terrace]

works fine for meeeeee

[harsh quartz]

a couple weeks ago i didnt know about it and whoever has the drunk lenny the lenny was just extremely drunk with the new font

[winged spire]

It never really shows up in chat for me

[harsh quartz]

yeah, it doesnt show up on mobile, like i said

[tardy terrace]

[alpine gale]

Yee, it's another one of those "rolling out slowly... to users we feel like... on Desktop only" features.

Anyone got any good themes

[winged spire]

SHAME

[tardy terrace]

I like the earthy forest one

[winged spire]

I wanna do a custom one

I keep trying to do it myself and I just give up because it always ends up looking like ass

[full fossil]

imagine spending that much on nitro per month or year

[winged spire]

Especially with more than 3 colors

[tardy terrace]

it pays to have money

[winged spire]

A Big Mac meal per month for nitro

[full fossil]

nitro is a scam 😭

[winged spire]

And I get 500mb uploads

That ALONE is worth it
