i can run a prompt if someone want to see what it creates

Matte black coffee tumbler on wooden desk, morning sunlight casting long shadows, steam rising, commercial product shot

The first ship is entirely gibberish, the second ship is using like a vanguard hull with a modern frigate smokestack and at least looks passable at first glance

Planes are a bit big

[graceful mortar]

🤮 actually makes my stomach ache

[winged spire]

Time to post this on Etsy for 50$

[graceful mortar]

i mean, lol it was supposed to be a cute sealion eating a ship
not "Ships vs. Sea Lions"

[winged spire]

Sea lion wins

[harsh quartz]

this is just battleship but the aliens are seals instead

The day i did windows update, my PC started randomly and constantly shutting down instantly as if power was cut.
Downloaded free AVG, did a scan, it said there were operating system issues, they fixed it, now it's been running for a full day without issue.
Are the new programmers as microsoft really that bad?

[storm topaz]

Hello my keyboard recently broke and I’ve been trying to find a good replacement I have like 15 keyboards that I found but idk which one is the best out of all of them for gaming can someone please help me

[mint sandal]

@winged spire oh could possibly start a company

[winged spire]

Doing what?

[graceful mortar]

Troppa 😭

[graceful mortar]

Wait like somebody just ripped the power cord out? That's not windows That sounds more like a hardware problem. Normally windows have encounters a weird error it'll blue screen or you'll let the bare minimum see it inside of the event viewer.

[graceful mortar]

Unless you're talking about very very cheap membrane keyboards, unless you're at the Pro level,t he keyboard's not going to make that big of a difference in gaming.
Having said that I like Logitech mechanical switches.
But I game just as well on my membrane keyboard laptop and my previous illuminated Logitech keyboard which was also membrane

[zenith cradle]

yeah as if power is cut. it's been fine all of today after i did some AVG operative system thing. second scan did not show the same issue they pointed out so they did something at least. might be a coincidense, but i put nothing past microsoft anymore.

feels like the same shit when i was at a renowned car dealership to fix my car, they tried 3 times, when i described the problem to a car loving colleague, he instantly said what it was, wich ended up being exactly correct. The first thing the dealership did was drive the car with me btw, colleague did not 😄

My brother is an electrician trainee, and he is constantly annoyed at the misstakes the ''pros'' do, moral is that proffessionals can be comically shit at what they were trained for.

[harsh quartz]

yeah, and of course they didnt increase the pricing of cards or the battlepass, they just decreased how much you get from them

[strange elk]

Bruh how do you inflate a f2p game

Oh wait Destiny exists

[winged spire]

This is the stratotanker involved in the incident

Missing half its vertical stab 😭😭😭

Do a stress test, maybe OCP was triggering or PSU is dying

How should I decorate

I’m a student btw so I need some desk space for stuff

[wary bay]

Idk maybe some plants

And a headphone holder

[gilded quest]

Nspire is ass

(I'm just salty mine had a POS battery)

(also Casio just better)

[wary bay]

Hell nah

TI SUPREMACY

I also like ti system of creating equations and calling them

[gilded quest]

So much better

Or at least back when it was Casio prizm vs ti 84 plus silver edition

[echo path]

Eh imo any wait time is well worth it to fix a dud

[graceful mortar]

Oh for sure, just sucks to wait that long on such an expensive Device

[echo path]

TI has way better support for games

If that is the plane that landed, then it must’ve been a collision between two tankers

Can someone make a suggestion to me please?

[graceful mortar]

Sounds like it

Ahh

[fervent hull]

quick question. has elijah ever talked about the new redmagic 11 pro waifu?

[gilded quest]

Never played a calculator game because, and I cannot stress this enough, why would I want to do that when I have a smartphone

[gilded quest]

Why am I in Phoenix for a heat wave

[strange elk]

Probably because you dont have a calculator
Prizm has cookie clicker lmfao

Its OK, me neither.. Least not one ive got working rn

[fresh ermine]

So if I use Firefox on yt, it can load the homepage of yt, ublock origin is on, but instead of not loading the video, yt straight up said I didn't connect to the internet,

However, if I use chrome yt, there are no issues even ublock is on

[iron blaze]

guys i got an xbox 360 yesterday

[vapid smelt]

that thing is 20 years old

[cyan prism]

[iron blaze]

i mean yeah but it does have some good games

i feel like the 360 and ps3 is where games really started to become modern in a way

and it came already modded btw

Since Valve says transferability(sell lootboxes content p2p) is a fundamental consumer rights, I guess that means they will open up selling your steam games directly to other consumers/steam accounts. Surely.

Right now you really only can sell your entire Steam account at once & therefor should only buy 1 game per steam account for easier reselling.

[rain linden]

Steam accounts are non-transferable

Also you can't sell IP of other people like that. Because licensing and whatever the fuck

[dim agate]

when you buy a game you are purchasing a license to use the game, you can't transfer that license to someone else. it's not the same as valve creating their own item in a game and letting you trade it to others

you also legally cannot sell a steam account

well it's against TOS not illegal per se

[rain linden]

you also cannot use your dead relative/friend's steam account

they are tied to the person who created it

[dim agate]

yes

[rain linden]

steam support however is REALLY nice about it

[dim agate]

how so? i never bothered asking

[rain linden]

they will let you know that you may continue using the account or if you choose to you may provide them the death ceritificate

then they will close the account

[dim agate]

they'll let me use the account if i provide a death certificate?

[rain linden]

no

they will close it immediately
they are just very nice about it

[dim agate]

ah

[gentle slate]

I'd give gaben my ID

With Minecraft legacy?

[elfin jetty]

people are already doing some insane stuff with mc legacy

[graceful matrix]

Netherite

And aether

[elfin jetty]

people are already gregifying mc LCE

[graceful matrix]

Gtnh legacy 🗣️ 🗣️

[graceful matrix]

Fast as in hytale

Every Minecraft like game becomes gtnh

[elfin jetty]

honestly I'm here for it. I absolutely love tech modpacks

[graceful matrix]

I like it to

Im atm at EV

[elfin jetty]

especially when you are able to do stuff no one mod allows you to do, like turing trees into diamonds

[graceful matrix]

?

In gtnh?

[elfin jetty]

the pack i made has a good few tech mods, but none of them alone allow you to turn trees into diamonds

[elfin jetty]

nono, custom pack

[graceful matrix]

Los Santos customs

I just like gtnh

[elfin jetty]

XD
tis a tad messy and kinda slow, but infinite diamonds producing at all times is infinite diamonds

[graceful matrix]

Prob gona install modern texturepack for gtnh

[elfin jetty]

and i dont have a use for the thousands of diamonds i do have

[graceful matrix]

Get ultimate

Redstone and iron

Then refined diamond

Then more diamonds with obsidian

Then more dia block for decoration

[elfin jetty]

trust me, once i get my true factory set up, it will be glorious. all i have right now is a machine shop.

[graceful matrix]

Wana join the grind?

[elfin jetty]

I need to build a power generation plant building. the one i was gonna use turned into my biosdiesel production line

[elfin jetty]

I would but I have more work to do in my own server. i want to build some stuff and finally finish off my airship

[graceful matrix]

Finish your project first,my journey will take long

[graceful matrix]

New missions

[elfin jetty]

because rockstar is a bunch of assholes

[graceful matrix]

Linux 🥀
But Minecraft

[elfin jetty]

I make it a point to not play kernel level anticheat games before i switched. and gta 5 used to run perfectly fine on linux till the dipshits at rockstar implementesd that crap and said FU to linux users

so fuck em, they make a game i liked playing from time to time obsolete? I'll just pirate gta 6

take away something i paid for, well they wont ever see another cent

[graceful matrix]

Sadly enhanced doesn't have ingame chat

[elfin jetty]

[elfin jetty]

Whats wrong with Minecraft? Dont tell me you're stuck in 2016 XD

Why cant computers still use this voice by default
https://youtu.be/41U78QP8nBk

[strange elk]

No. On the contrary, its 2026 and ive played the fuck out of Minecraft, Vulkan being added is the most interesting thing to me since like.. Tridents launched.

and Microsoft sucks, theres other procedurally generated sandbox/exploration voxel games

Vintage story is more hardcore, immersive and has lore and in depth mechanics that can go deeper with mods, Hytale exists finally and a new one popped up recently that looks like a sort of mix between them and teardown

[civic fox]

if only hytale had more stuff to do

[elfin jetty]

i mean sure. I have hytale. waiting on more stuff to be added since its super early stages. minecraft has always been my go to relax game and it was also my first computer game, nothing will take it away from being my number 2 game and sure microsoft sucks but I'm not gonna stop playing my #2 game of all time just because of that

[civic fox]

same here :3

[strange elk]

Not saying you have to, just saying it ain't the only one anymore

Ive been playing since alpha, did a bunch of modded playthroughs and I'm getting over it. Haven't played much MC since around 2021

[elfin jetty]

matter of fact I am currently playing on my modded forever world

[civic fox]

very nice

[elfin jetty]

I'm getting back into it after so long tbh

there was a solid 5 years i didnt touch the game

then i got the itch again

[slow belfry]

hello, where can i share a link to a web game i am developing ?

[strange elk]

Ive played a couple packs off and on but looking more towards future of VS than Minecraft atp. Most of their updates I don't even remember what they introduced anymore since 1.14.. Or what order at least, I know bees, nether, increased y levels, some miniboss and an underground structure

[strange elk]

In your own server that you dont link here

[slow belfry]

it's on Vercel, i got a domain

[strange elk]

Ok

https://tenor.com/view/everyone-has-to-follow-protocol-pc-principal-south-park-season23ep03shots-following-the-rules-gif-19444359

[summer folio]

you should try RLcraft, it's like Minecraft but much better

[slow belfry]

it's a trading card game

[strange elk]

I suggest a glance over the second "info" channel again you should've passed by before chatting

I should try RLCraft I think. See how it compares to vintage story.. It won't but may as well look at it

[slow belfry]

i did read the info and my link is not a shit post or spam

[strange elk]

Those aren't the only two words

[civic fox]

🤦🏻‍♂️

[slow belfry]

4. Do not spam, shitpost, troll, or advertise. This includes (but is not limited to) gameservers unrelated to LTT (eg. private Minecraft servers), low-quality content (such as memes or recycled posts, etc), general spam, religion, and politics. If you're not sure your post is allowed, it likely isn't.

[strange elk]

Here I'll help. Seelll.. Seeelllf..

[civic fox]

there ya go, dont advertise. right there.

[slow belfry]

advertise means for profit, my game is free

[civic fox]

no it doesnt.

[slow belfry]

yes it does

[strange elk]

Look below this Buddy.

You're almost there

https://tenor.com/view/stare-ghost-death-gif-27106641

[civic fox]

well, the answer is obviously a no.

[slow belfry]

anyway, you can read the link in my profile, those interested

it's funny that totally useless youtube videos is fine, someone comes with a project and noooooo, its advertising

[civic fox]

oh no, anyway.

[strange elk]

Totally useless YouTube videos also can't give you a trojan

[civic fox]

das true :3

[slow belfry]

they give you brain damage

brain washing lol

[civic fox]

hmmm, not really no.

[strange elk]

Show me your research papers on that

[slow belfry]

also some youtube videos are full of links to crap, but ok

[elfin jetty]

yeah sure but it isnt really tech themed

[strange elk]

Yeah, thats on their platform. Discord mods aren't gonna moderate what you have linked in a YouTube video unless someone reports it as malicious probably lol

[slow belfry]

my project is totaly tech themed and the site even links to my linkdin acount

i made it with VS code + Cline + MCP Servers + Opus 4.6

[civic fox]

made with AI, very nice.....

[strange elk]

Brother I don't care if you developed TempleOS lmao

[slow belfry]

it's a game

[strange elk]

So was crazy down. Except for the part they stole my browser tokens and almost a couple of my accounts (and hosted their shit on my AWS)

[elfin jetty]

you know. the more shit you say like this the less and less likely anyone is to check out something made by you.

[slow belfry]

well, those rules are not made by anyone reading this, but ok

[elfin jetty]

take the L and move on mate.

[strange elk]

Well.. You also can only count to 4 I suppose so
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8ccGjar4Es

[slow belfry]

it's just sad that genuine projects get rejected because of those bad posts

and all we get is actually garbage

[elfin jetty]

this also just straight up isnt the place for it?

[civic fox]

genuine projects? i assume ones that are made with actual humans and have no ai involvment yea?

[slow belfry]

yes, correct

[elfin jetty]

so why try here if its nothing to do with what you are trying to do.......?

[civic fox]

so your project is not a quote "genuine project", regardless take the L and move on.

[slow belfry]

you have no idea what is coding with AI, i'ts not one prompt job, took me weeks

[elfin jetty]

https://tenor.com/view/bruh-again-rly-really-gif-24837012

[slow belfry]

anyway you guys are trolls

[civic fox]

dont really care what your reasoning is, i dont like ai in things i use. A lot of people also feel the same. cant be considered genuine now can it.

[strange elk]

It doesn't matter if you wrote the thing in fking binary by hand ATP, you still can't self promote lol

[elfin jetty]

"buh buh buh my project is so good i dont need to pay attention to the rules, the rule of cool trumps all"

[civic fox]

lmao

[elfin jetty]

[elfin jetty]

says the newbie who cant read basic rules. come back when you learn some reading comprehension.

[civic fox]

that would be wonderful

[strange elk]

If you can't read those how do you expect me to trust you to vet your generated code

[elfin jetty]

51 years old and still bothered by people online. thats just insane

[civic fox]

not yet you aren't

[slow belfry]

not bothered at all

[civic fox]

your messages state otherwise.

[elfin jetty]

Then why are you still here saying random shit XD

[slow belfry]

was being honest, but yes it is stupid and useless to do that on this discord server

[elfin jetty]

also for 51 years old you should really be able to read rules....

[civic fox]

yea......

[slow belfry]

i did ask where if i could share a link, and i didn't share it

so , no harm was done

[elfin jetty]

then got pissy about not being able to

[slow belfry]

no one got hit by my AI virus

and then decided to argue about it lmao

you are bored enough to respond to me

Yup, this is funny as hell

i mean i'm snowed in currently soooo what else am i gonna do

[elfin jetty]

my god same. and it was 80 something degrees the other day

[civic fox]

80? man i wish, it's been near the 40s or so the last week. Then last night around 7pm it started snowing. when i got up we had like almost 2 feet of snow...

no touching grass for me i guess lol

[elfin jetty]

last week it was cold as hell, then the first few days of this week were in the 80s, and then it snowed yesterday. Its insane

[civic fox]

what a wild turn of events that is jeez

[elfin jetty]

and that doesnt usually happen here

climate change is a bitch....

[civic fox]

tbf i live in an area where most of the year is snow. but i would expect by now for it to be done..... but nooooo we are forced to have more damn snow.

[elfin jetty]

where i live we have full seasons, but for the past 7-8 years its been getting wacky.....

[civic fox]

interesting, 9/10 we get snow before Halloween lol.

and it ends normally around april or so... latest it goes is may if we are really unlucky.

i have yet to get a proper fall season thats longer than a week if at all.

[elfin jetty]

hi, i was just wondering, i have a rtx 5080 and r7 7800x3d pc with more stuff, i bought it for around 2700euro, in my country with the parts my pc costs around 3300 to 3500, i wanted to list it for 3500 and go down to 3000, buy a laptop that si good enough for gaming for around 1500 to 2000, the rest i would bundle with the money i will earn thjis summer to buy my first car and phone, you think its a good idea or should i keep the pc, bc i feel like i dont use its full potential i was looking like a 5070 laptop, i dont need all of that performance i mostly play overwatch, maybe some story games here and there and i programm like web and in vs code, so i dont need a pc this strong

[elfin jetty]

@civic fox it went from this to this in a day.

Or well. It was the first one yesterday, then the second one is today

[orchid nacelle]

i'm in rural az in a mountain city, i get that a lot lol

[civic fox]

thats nuts, for me its the second one, transitioning to the first image overnight.

[orchid nacelle]

3 inches, then slush, then melted in a day

[elfin jetty]

SAME, it went from rainy and hot as hell to snow in one day

[civic fox]

idk who controls the weather, but like GIVE me summer already. I'm over winter.

[elfin jetty]

Lol

[fossil frost]

where i am in the uk, it can go from one, to the other, and back again, in the same morning. UK weather isnt extreme, but you can experience 4-6 seasons within the same day

[elfin jetty]

the perks (or curse) of living on an island

[fossil frost]

i went for a 20 mile run the other week... when i set off, was sunny, then rained, then started hail stoning, then a bit of sleet and snow, then back to rain, then sun... i was running for about 3 hours... and got all of that

[harsh quartz]

It’s always fun to go from 4F to 72f in the course of 12 hours

[fossil frost]

even more fun for it to go the other way round when you arent prepared for it

can always take clothes off that you are wearing... much harder to put clothes on that you didnt bring with you

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, west tn weather is always unpredictable

[fossil frost]

the speed of the tides, and the height difference of the tides in the uk is something that always shocks americans.. when they are in the uk btw... i remember a reddit post a while back of a place not too far from me, showing high tide and low tide... empty beach, vs 30ft of water with 10ft waves... and people asking "what times of year were those two taken" and the replies were "this morning, and this afternoon"

[languid aurora]

I regularly go between Knoxville and Nashville, east TN isn’t any better

This state is so cheeks weather wise

[fossil frost]

i was in morecambe bay a few weeks ago, on a very very flat beach.. and you can see the tide rolling towards you.. there are sirens to warn you to "get out of the beach, or you could die" .. because it fills up around the edges first, rather than the middle.. people have died because of it, many times

[gilded quest]

Our gas is only up 80-90 cents so far

[vapid smelt]

Wearing a fluffy jacket at room temperature weather?!

[harsh quartz]

Yeah we went from like 2.60 to 3.30 ish, but apparently west tn is one of the least impacted places, which is troubling

[harsh quartz]

I wish it would do that here, that sounds so nice

[gilded quest]

We're up from $3.39 to $4.09 now

But January was $3.17

[harsh quartz]

weve been at like 2.50-2.60 for a whilte

[gilded quest]

This is only Costco pricing

I'm pretty sure all the other stations are like $4.50

[harsh quartz]

sams for us, but usually our local gas stations are fairly competative with sams, at least only like 20 cents off at the highest

[gilded quest]

I was in a Sam's today for the first time in years

I'm glad I have Costcos close to my house

[harsh quartz]

yeah, id prefer a cotsco, but sams is at least better than walmart

[gilded quest]

I just don't go to Walmart

WinCo and costco

[hot tartan]

mr high and mighty

[harsh quartz]

i rarely do for very specific things. tonight i need to go to both walmart and sams

[gilded quest]

Idk what I would buy there

[vapid smelt]

Your WinCo has gas stations?

[gilded quest]

No
They have food

[vapid smelt]

Ah

[gilded quest]

Costco has gas

[hot tartan]

but costco has both gas and food

[gilded quest]

This is facts

[harsh quartz]

ive helpde build a bunch of cotscos but never been in one

[gilded quest]

It's suburban paradise

[hot tartan]

costco has the greatest $5 lunch available

[gilded quest]

An oasis, if you will

[harsh quartz]

im actually curious to see how the cotsco apartments works out

[hot tartan]

slice of cheese pizza and a strawberry sundae is so good

[gilded quest]

3 hot dogs and 50¢ leftover?

[harsh quartz]

sams has this too

sams soft pretzels are goated

[hot tartan]

the costco pizza is just so good

[harsh quartz]

i haevnt had a sams pizza in a long time, theyre line is usually too long with people trying to buy pizza

[hot tartan]

it's my favorite pizza when compared to like pizza chains

[vapid smelt]

Too greasy

[hot tartan]

it's worth it

[harsh quartz]

but think of your protien goals

[hot tartan]

I want to try the calzone, but it's like $6

[vapid smelt]

Peanut butter

[hot tartan]

the meal i get is like 1200 calories and 40g of protein

[harsh quartz]

thats a lot of peanut butter

[hot tartan]

for $5 not bad

[harsh quartz]

only food ive gotten from sams in probably 5 years is a soft pretzel

cause its 1$ for a massive pretzel

[hot tartan]

i go to costco maybe once a week, so spending $5 on food there isn't crazy for me

[harsh quartz]

sams is like a bi-monthly thing cause its groceries in bulk

[hot tartan]

yeah atp i buy like maybe one or two items a week from costco, mostly there for the food. but I dont think i have to go this weekend actually tbh

[graceful matrix]

Hello

[snow pine]

Hey man

[silver sun]

779

[dusky jacinth]

The dedication of ^this person is sorta impressive, but also sorta lame ngl.

[fossil frost]

its all lies too.. they missed out a few numbers, and never reset.. which according to their own self imposed rules, they should ha ve

[dusky jacinth]

Lol wut.

That's even more lame.

[fossil frost]

they went 349, 351 (or something like that) 3 or 4 times, missed numbers.. and their own rules say that if they miss.. they reset.. and they tried to say they didnt miss, they just skipped

so its all lies.. several times over

[dusky jacinth]

I hope you're paying attention to this, @silver sun. You've got some recounting to do now. Lmao.

[silver sun]

If I missed a day, it's cuz of discord, not me

On more than one occasion, discord has just not sent the message

[fossil frost]

it wasnt a day missed, it was a number skipped over, a couple of times at least

[silver sun]

I know, the time i do the message is right before I fall asleep, so to not have to go search if for the last number if I have forgotten, I keep count on a server with friends

I don't go looking for them

Not here anyways

So it's not that I've skipped those days, it's just, the message didn't send, I didn't notice, and I just post the next number

[fossil frost]

tbh, im not really that arsed, im just bored, and tired, but not tired enough to go to sleep 😄

[silver sun]

Same

But it's also an explanation for the other person who summoned me here

[silver sun]

You have your explanation

[dusky jacinth]

Well, I just find it satisfying how this mellowed out easily into just all three of us being bored enough to bother. Lol.

[fossil frost]

tbh, as far as any of us are concerned, we are just each lights on a screen to each other.. what any of us think or say about each other really doesnt matter... so, best way to deal with anything is to just talk about it, and then not care, because it doesnt matter

[vapid smelt]

[chilly folio]

FUCK

i put the new forgis on the jeep

[graceful mortar]

Less than 24 hrs later .... $5.19 😩

[fossil frost]

the UKs equiv $/gal is currently $7.33

[graceful mortar]

What is that, 60% in 14 days?

[chilly folio]

bro engrish

[graceful mortar]

Yeah, But normal for y'all is like $6.50 right

[fossil frost]

around that yeah

[graceful mortar]

So really not much more

[vapid smelt]

$3.60 at Maverick for 85

[fossil frost]

i could do the maths, but i cant be arsed.. $6ish

[graceful mortar]

It would be $10.40 a gallon if you had a 60% increase.

Assuming 6.50 14 days ago

[fossil frost]

$6.01 7 days ago

(i did the maths)

[plush grotto]

Such cheap fuel prices here

[graceful mortar]

Ahem ...

[plush grotto]

Chuckles at $10.50/gal

[graceful mortar]

So yeah, Even if you're normally $6 a gallon you're still talking over $10 a gallon is where you should be at to have the same price increase.

[vapid smelt]

6 7

[fossil frost]

majority of the cost of petrol here is tax.. like 2/3 of the cost is tax.. so it probably has gone up by FAR more than 60%, but because we already get a HUGE tax on fuel... the tax makes it look like less of a % increase

[plush grotto]

We have been warned to expect $12.43/gal next week

[vapid smelt]

At your 7-9 mpg what the cost to drive 60 miles xD

[graceful mortar]

Also I will point out most of the common English speaking countries have a public transport system/option ... We don't and because of home pricing ..commutes are 40 minutes ....each way daily... 💀💀

Oh and they just announced that even if everything was to stop today and everybody was to hug and make nice and nothing was to happen anymore 🤣 it would be 6 months before prices returned to normal..... 👀

[fossil frost]

public transport in the uk outside of 3-4 cities, sucks anus

[graceful mortar]

Fr fr tho.

[chilly folio]

apperently i can speak english

[plush grotto]

Kinda sucks here, but it works

[chilly folio]

just not to yo standerds bruh

this is racism

[graceful mortar]

Energy prices lead inflation... Blah blah blah... You can always undo unemployment with no lasting effects but you can't undo inflation without purposely inducing a cataclysmic event which will have 50 years or more effect

[fossil frost]

the uk govt has just accused the fuel companies of profiteering.. because every time oil goes up, petrol goes up the same day, if oil comes back down "well. there is a 3 month delay, because we buy 3 months in advance", but within the same week, oil went from 90/barrel, to 110/barrel and back down to 90 again.. petrol went up instantly, and hasnt come back down... the main fuel companies are now attacking the government to try and avoid a huge government investigation

[plush grotto]

This whole thing so going to take years to recover from

[fossil frost]

prices will never "recover", people will get used to the higher prices, and the cartel that are the fuel companies, will keep the prices high, because people got used to paying it

[plush grotto]

And since we have proven we are willing to pay $10+ per gallon they are going to keep it there.

[graceful mortar]

Were you here the other night? That's what I was talking about when I said the problem with even temporary pipe spikes is it sets a new price floor normal... For instance see McDonald's who just lost a new burger that's $10 on its own..... $10... In what world??

Back in 2021 when they were starting people at $26 an hour sure I would probably be more supportive... They have six cut their wages down to $14.60 an hour....

[plush grotto]

Chocolate went from $3/200g to $6.5/200g, and it's still there even tho the cacao prices have gone down.

[graceful mortar]

It's literally where "oh great we have an excuse to test the market to find out how much people WILL actually pay so we can extract every ounce out of them".. okay you took the price up 300%, But if you only lost 5% of sales who cares about the poor people that can't afford to eat? "WE ARE ANNOUNCING WE HAVE DECIDED TO REDUCE PRICES BY 3%" Mentality

[fossil frost]

things only ever get more expensive (except for TVs, for some reason.. TVs seem to always get cheaper)

[vapid smelt]

So we can watch more ads

[fossil frost]

i can go to the supermarket now and buy a 32" 1080p tv with 3 hdmi ports for £89... or a 55" 4k for £300

[solemn wind]

We have to move the 67 vs 21 debate here ig

[versed hedge]

we do not and will not we cant let members determine our chat decisions

[solemn wind]

"tech chat 1"

I don't think that is the place for the shitty funny numbers debate

[versed hedge]

if you go that way then public-chat says The chat for all things related. No memes or shitposting (except bread). and number debates arent about that

[solemn wind]

Quick someone find a video where linus says 67

[versed hedge]

nobody thinks you're funny

I know you're like 9 so please leave!

[solemn wind]

Isn't my whole thing here that neither of those numbers are funny?

[versed hedge]

69 and 21 are OG made by the gen z whereas 67 41 is made by gen alpha and is unfunny

[solemn wind]

Sooooooo

It's just new thing bad

At least I know why people hate it now ig

you're not even 13

Naw you could've touched grass i bet

I barely knew about YouTube by the time I was 8, granted we did have TiVo

On the shorts on Youtube mobiles launch topic.. I disabled the app and it started me off with a short when I reenabled it so I could watch the wan show

I avoided that shit for so long and I fell into that trap for like 2 weeks.. probably more honestly

Literally only have it on my phone in the first place for compatibility reasons, as its been spotty lately

[graceful mortar]

found the hand brake issue . now going 2x as fast, and using 100w less power .... why disabled by defult, IDK

[red flint]

I think that's mine

[pliant karma]

Noice, my brag was being the one who lead the production team for morning news broadcasts and other events during my last two years of high school.

One of the teachers I had wasn't too happy since I wasn't there when he did attendance, but it was always excused since the morning broadcast interfered with that class.

[restive lion]

im TP for the next broadcast

[pulsar kiln]

Because RIP quality and Storage space

[graceful mortar]

You still have a quality slider. I set mine to 65. (H.265 10-bit Video toolbox)

[pulsar kiln]

And there goes your storage space lol

I mean sure, it saves over a pure original. But no where near as efficient as software for space.

Gamers DGAF about power according to reviewers and GPU manufacturers.

[pulsar kiln]

Honestly not sure what that slider equals. But GPU encoding definitely takes more space for the same quality. And a lot more in my experience. 30%or more.

[graceful mortar]

I mean the source file is 128GB H.265. I'll see what the final transcode comes to.

[graceful mortar]

Laptops do though lol. If I transcode my whole 20TB library. Probably don't want my laptop staying at 105c for 2 weeks straight.

[pulsar kiln]

Hey, it's rated to do that. My I run my mini PC at 80% CPU usage most of it's life. Sits at 92C the entire time.

Just sitting there encoding x265 seasons of shows

I make my own releases and upload on "sites."

I also have a dedicated machine that just encodes it's entire life. Dual Xeon 2699 v4s that just encode away. Actually getting the life they were built for.

140+W in a 14 inch can be a bit hard to cool.

so.. my dad assumes because i "know computers" i am a capable print designer.. and has tasked me with creating a flyer for his business.. anybody any idea of some sort of AI design tool that will let me create a flyer and export it as a PDF, because i cant be arsed to do this myself

already tried figma's AI, since thats the only online design tool i know, but they dont let me export it

[vapid smelt]

Computer nerd = artist?

[fossil frost]

what annoys me more is.. my brother.. IS a digital and print designer...

[vapid smelt]

Lmao

Pawn the task off to your brother

[fossil frost]

apparently hes "too busy" which is why i got roped in

[vapid smelt]

Oh

[fossil frost]

i started a new job, as tech lead of a multi national company this week.. but yeah, turns out hes busier than me

[vapid smelt]

Have him higher a bloke off fiver

Canva, Adobe Express, and DesignWiz allow users to generate professional flyers from text prompts and export them directly to PDF

[fossil frost]

figured out another way to do it.. i phoned my brother myself... my dad never spoke to him apparently.. so.. successfully fobbed it off to him now 😁

[vapid smelt]

Check PayPal

[fossil frost]

i dont get why people shop at costco... £59 for a membership and everything costs the same, or more than it does in the supermarket, except that you trick yourself into thinking its cheaper because you buy it in bulk

[random lion]

Aww

[lyric sphinx]

Looks at PayPal and a request for 300 dollars is there

[random lion]

Here in New Zealand it does work out cheaper

[fossil frost]

fair enough... 100% not the case in the uk though

[vapid smelt]

Gas is currently 50 cents cheaper per gallon at Costco

[random lion]

Yeah you guys have more choice

[fossil frost]

costs the same at costo in the uk as it does in most other forecourts

[random lion]

Prime beef mince at Costco is $15.99 kg, $19.99 at other supermarkets

[lyric sphinx]

Since I live in dumb pocket zero growth city Costco is about a dollar or so cheaper

[random lion]

And because I am gluten free… gluten free stuff is cheaper like wraps is 24 for $9 instead of 4 for $8 😄

[gritty depot]

um

[random lion]

Would love to have the buying power that the uk has

[lyric sphinx]

Good thing air is gluten free

[gilded quest]

Oh, green name, rip

🫡 we'll be missing you in #pilot-toast

[lyric sphinx]

Yeah we had to come to pubic chat

[fossil frost]

we might have buying power... but it doesnt drive costs down. 1kg of mince is £13 or 29 NZD in the supermarket, and about the same in costco

[vapid smelt]

Store brand equivalent is $28 per 5 quart making it $42 cheaper at Costco

[random lion]

Can’t even activate till I get home as my phone won’t let me log in 😅

[fossil frost]

costco doesnt work like that in the uk.. might do in the usa and other places, just doesnt in the uk

[lyric sphinx]

is it gluten free?

and what are the macros

[vapid smelt]

@random lion is it gf?

[fossil frost]

start drinking it, and do the research for us, and let us know

how can to remove this application from my computer?

[alpine gale]

What initiative are you referring to? Are your messages written by a human?

[still yacht]

I was writing like an AI bot as a joke, and everyone believed it.

[alpine gale]

It's usually best to avoid that... Also not good to ping random users you're not already conversing with. 👍

[still yacht]

I just asked how you were, I didn't swear.

If you were asking about the incident that just happened

[alpine gale]

That's not the issue. Users not active in chat or those you're not already talking to don't need to be pinged. It's like sending an unsolicited email to someone you've never met, or calling a random phone number out of the blue.

what's the most recent news about steam frame release date

I can't wait to buy them from scalpers.

[vapid smelt]

Do they have ram for them?

[still yacht]

I saw it in the last message he sent about 10 minutes ago. I just wanted to say how are you. I'm not the one taking it personally.

[alpine gale]

More seriously, not sure, but I do hope they have a successful launch to push both Microsoft, Sony, and maybe even Nintendo away from proprietary console hardware. Consoles made sense before general computing got as good as it is today. Now, consoles only lock people into a platform that they don't even own after purchase.

[still yacht]

He says he already blocked me, so how did he see my message? There was no need for him to reply.

[steel dragon]

I feel like by the time people actually get their hands on the hardware it would be 2027

[still yacht]

btw But the part that looks like a bot message has nothing to do with that person.

[steel dragon]

it took valve 7 month from pre order to shipping for steam deck

and that was without RAM shortage

Submitted for your approval: a new LTT series that is essentially the show "Pimp My Ride", but for gamers and tech enthusiasts.

concept: People submit their Jank, terrible or otherwise crappy setups and the Crew at LMG come to their place and Upgrade their rigs and setups with all the latest and greatest tech to suit their needs and niches.

[alpine gale]

LTT Video ideas can be submitted on the forums. 🙂 https://linustechtips.com/topic/1322697-thread-for-linus-tech-tips-video-suggestions/

similar concept, but it would be anybody in the world, not just LMG employees, these would be regular everyday people who submitted their rig, kinda like ROG Rig Reboot.

[jaunty compass]

Linus trying pop!OS repeatedly feels like Sisyphus pushing a boulder up a hill repeatedly

[strange elk]

Dont worry about it atp

[fossil frost]

its because "look at how shit everything is and how everything is fucked" is a much more enjoyable and engagement driving video than "everything just worked fine"

hes going out of his way to make mistakes, hes going out of his way to have it go wrong, hes going out of his way to be the TV show character that people expect him to be

[jaunty compass]

He somehow has far more jank on Pop!OS on a normal computer than I have running fedora or chimera on a lobotomized PS5 with no proper hardware support and running hacked together system modules

[strange elk]

I certainly wouldn't have wanted to be discouraged from using Linux ATP if I were still in high school or smth

[celest tangle]

tbf I always had a LOT of issues on pop os as well

[strange elk]

Like is it a bunch of 40+ year olds watching this content or

[jaunty compass]

[celest tangle]

I went kubuntu last time this time I went endevor but I am tempted to go back to kubuntu

[jaunty compass]

I've never used Pop!OS tbh

I've used almost every other major distro though

[celest tangle]

my first linux experience was neptune os if anyone can remember that

its still around but not NEARLY as popular as it once was

[fossil frost]

its ubuntu with a slightly different UI

[jaunty compass]

My first experience was Linux lite when I was like 12 which was horrible lmao

[strange elk]

I'd say and when was that but

[jaunty compass]

The lite was having no dependencies almost everything needed apparently

[celest tangle]

I was 14 when I first tried it I was helping my schools IT department setup the new chromebooks and they had some old thinkpad e545's that where being swapped out for newer ones and I got to keep a few of them

[jaunty compass]

It was like 10 years ago, Linux is way better than it was then in terms of daily driving

[strange elk]

Started a couple years after that. I don't even remember how I learned about Linux atp

Wait I lied, heard about the raspberry pi first

[celest tangle]

it didn't have windows and I didn't want to pay for a key so I decided linux was the best option I was really into the anime project neptuna so thats 100% why I chose neptune os

its not related at all I think tho other than the name XD

[jaunty compass]

I tried it after hearing about how it was lighter weight than windows and would run better

[strange elk]

Raspbian was my first steps into it, and I kinda only got more interested

[jaunty compass]

I knew software compatibility would kinda suck going in so I didn't immediately get put off luckily

[fossil frost]

i think mandrake and redhat were my first attempts at linux, then gentoo, then ubuntu (for a long time) then recently switched to fedora, because i dont like snap

[strange elk]

I ran lubuntu in a VM for a while in fullscreen to do my schoolwork. Was pretty sick.

[jaunty compass]

But after that it was 2 years before I tried to daily drive it again which was on a way better laptop with Linux mint which kinda sucked...but then I tried kubuntu, which was a way better experience

So I stuck with kubuntu for a while

[strange elk]

I only really played Minecraft back then so it was sort of perfect for me to switch but didn't do it until my hard drive died

[jaunty compass]

And more recently I've used Bazzite, chimera, fedora, and Manjaro as daily drivers for some amount of time

[strange elk]

I tore the ribbon for the hard drive cable, the replacement burnt up so i installed mint xfce on a flash drive for a while before i got a USB to sata adapter to install Linux on.. Or something along those lines. Only other game I had on PC then was Borderlands 2

Ran like ass but it ran

For a month until said USB stick died from wear

And now the CPU in the laptop is dead

😔

[jaunty compass]

Oh right and nobara

Nobara is what I'm using right now on my handhelds and steam box

Because it being immutable fucked things up

[celest tangle]

when I started on linux I just used it for school stuff word documents, google classroom, and research, it worked great for that and since it was an old bulldozer?(I think) amd cpu it still felt pretty good to use

[snow magnet]

I run XFCE on all my LGA 775 stuff

and on my Core 2 Duo T6600 laptop

[celest tangle]

I did upgade form the a6 to the a8 since it was still a socketed mobile cpu which was really nice to be able to do

[snow magnet]

nice

[celest tangle]

ah it was richland not bulldozer but still old not great architecture

I wish I had been able to get the a10 it was just an overclocked version of the a8 but it still would have been nice

[summer folio]

same thing different name

[celest tangle]

ah I thought there was a difference

[summer folio]

I call everything between Zen & phenom: Bulldozer hehe

[celest tangle]

sadly the thinkpad e545 couldn't use the fm2+ cpus or I could have gotten a way better cpu for that laptop

not fm2+ the mobile equivelent

[summer folio]

phenom so cool
didnt even have to get ddr3 ram

could reuse ddr2

[celest tangle]

nice

there was a weird inbetween generation thing where some of the richland cpus worked on the e545 and some didn't

fun fact : bald people sometimes aren't actually bald, they have micro hair that can't be seen by eye and you'd have to lick their heads to feel it

so far out of 100 of the bald guy I've licked only 38 of them are actually smooth bald

[tender scarab]

first time chatting here and I see this

[long briar]

You can just place a piece of printer paper on their head to show the same effect

But I can understand why you'd prefer licking

Bro who the hell calls it an Omnibox

[alpine gale]

The developers. I understand what you're getting at: users don't call it this, but that doesn't change its name.

[restive lion]

The same people who call discord servers guilds

[oak pier]

those are two different functions on discord tho

[merry gull]

i hate home appliances sometimes. like do we really need it to beep every fuckin time we push a button?

[thick temple]

depends, if it doesn't have a screen, then semi-useful - if it does have a screen, there's generally a setting to mute it

[restive lion]

Guilds are servers

Server does not exist as a developer

Iirc user-facing guilds are called clans

[slender pebble]

hi I just buy i RX6750XT I install it and the screen black I tried everything nothing work pls help

[mystic basin]

@slender pebble ask AI to create a checklist to diagnose all issues for your PC and that GPU Card.

Check off 1 by 1, in order.

1. Wiring Issue
2. Compatibility Issue
3. BIOS issue
4. Check GPU works on other PC
5. Check previous GPU worked
6. Based on the above five, proceed accordingly as AI suggests.

[slender pebble]

turn off CSM and it’s work

[faint wharf]

sounds like an engagement farmer on twitter

[young trench]

i adjusted the scaling, the os looks somewhat okay. but the text in chrome and other installed applications are way off.

[ancient chasm]

oh you can change the texts too
in GNOME settings

just make it to basic sans

tbh just remove GNOME
and use KDE plasma

[graceful matrix]

Anyone here have experience running Elden Ring on Arch? I'm getting pretty bad stuttering issues and I don't know where to begin with them

[elfin jetty]

Kde plasma my beloved :3

[elfin jetty]

Nvidia or amd gpu?

[viscid imp]

Nvidia

[elfin jetty]

Could possibly be a driver issue, but im not familiar with arch

Does Elden ring have a native linux version?

[viscid imp]

Nope, has to run through Proton

[elfin jetty]

Hmmm... could always try switching to hotfix or experimental. Or any other version and seeing what works

[chrome fulcrum]

Would anyone be interested in making a Google sheet comparing every single phone released after 2020? have some ideas on formatting and I think something like this would be very helpful. Dm if interested

[alpine gale]

Nah. I just use gsmarena.com's compare feature when I need to compare phones. Works pretty well for my needs.

[gilded quest]

Cheaper than....a space heater?

[echo path]

well my heater draws ~800-1500W when in use and all the laptops have a total max tdp of somewhere around 450W and they heat the room enough for me

Plus the smell of old hot electronics 🙂

[sage wing]

idk twinn jus felt like sayin it out ig?

[viscid rampart]

[pulsar kiln]

Okay I'll accept

[viscid rampart]

🙂

[vapid smelt]

i dare someone to click the download link

[cyan prism]

I'm too scared to do it

[upper storm]

1gb ram and 32gb storage, what distro can I run? its a digital photo frame I wanna make it into a system monitor for my nas

[pulsar kiln]

Basically anything headless will be just fine.

If you need a DE, you're looking at lightweight DEs

[upper storm]

what are some very lightweight guis

[pulsar kiln]

LXQT or XFCE

[upper storm]

puppy linux?

[pulsar kiln]

Maybe LXDE but not overly well maintained comparably

In other words, if you need a DE, search for a distro with the one you want of those.

You'll also need one that supports whatever SOC is in that thing.

[flint current]

hihiiii

[placid mulch]

oi

where do you take a dog thats lost its tail?

buh duh bump

[tribal meteor]

Aftermath of mixing down one show:

[hexed pulsar]

What you think I should upgrade on my pc my specs are 12400f 16gbs of dual channel ddr5 5200mhz xpg lancer non rgb rtx 3080 rm650x and 2tbs of storage

[pulsar kiln]

What can't you do?

[hexed pulsar]

Idk I just wanna get a more balanced spot in my system

This upgrade won’t be immediate but it’s for later down the road

[pulsar kiln]

Upgrading is more about upgrading the part holding you back from what you want to do. Not "just because". "Just because" is partly why all the shit is expensive these days. People upgrading when they don't really needs to.

Just enjoy your PC as is if it's doing everything you need

[hexed pulsar]

I wasn’t gonna go for ram or storage I was thinking more of a cpu upgrade

Bc my cpu is lacking in some of the tasks I do but gaming it’s great

[pulsar kiln]

What tasks?

[hexed pulsar]

For blender

And some more things that are cpu bound

[pulsar kiln]

Such as?

[hexed pulsar]

Virtual machines

Lm studio

[pulsar kiln]

I mean, you want blender performance, a threadripper 9000 is what you want

[hexed pulsar]

Nahh that’s out of my price bracket

Too much moneys

Is am5 worth the upgrade from where I’m at now?

Only thing I’d have to do is get a new motherboard and cpu

[pulsar kiln]

So you're looking more at the 9950x or something. Or, simply a 12900 or similar if you want to maximize performance for your platform

[pulsar kiln]

Depends on just how much more performance you're looking for

A 12900 or 13/14 is a substantial leap for those specific tasks

[hexed pulsar]

I was thinking a Ryzen 7 9700x or maybe a f or whatever is the non igpu chip

My long term goal is to eventually go am5

But rn imma ride out intel im just scared of the 14th gen cpu bugs

[pulsar kiln]

You'll have to weigh out the costs of getting RAM with a simple CPU upgrade. A 13900 or similar will slap the shit out of a 9700x for those specific tasks

[hexed pulsar]

It will???

Idk that thanks for the info

My cpu cooler can’t handle that chip

[pulsar kiln]

My mistake 13900

[hexed pulsar]

Oh ok

[pulsar kiln]

13 and 14 will destroy the 9700 on that stuff

[hexed pulsar]

Sounds good thanks

I’d have to upgrade the cooler and psu tho

[pulsar kiln]

Single threaded stuff as well is often better on the Intel.

[strong kettle]

even the 12900K would beat the 9700x in blender by alot

[hexed pulsar]

My rm650x won’t handle the cpu and my gpu

[pulsar kiln]

The K yes

[hexed pulsar]

My card is a monster

[pulsar kiln]

You planning to load both simultaneously?

[hexed pulsar]

Yes

[pulsar kiln]

Seems a bit ostentatious

But okay

[hexed pulsar]

I know but I wanna see the true potential of my hardware instead of just running esports and cyber punk

[pulsar kiln]

This sounds more like a benchmark build than real world

[hexed pulsar]

I got ai models on there but I probably need more storage to get bigger models

Also I got spare hardware

I could build another machine if I want with a 10700t and a rx5700

[hexed pulsar]

Interesting combo here

I also got a 750ti a e5 2620 v3 and a full server for future projects

I’m totally thinking on buying someone’s old rig with a 13900k and worse gpu and take the cpu out and put my 12400f and in the other build and flip it for a profit

[pulsar kiln]

You're thinking slightly better now

[strong kettle]

is it like a legit X99

or a chinese one

or a C612

[hexed pulsar]

Legit came out of a hpe proliant ml350 gen 9

Dual socket motherboard

500w redundant power supply

[strong kettle]

dang a C612

those sell for a decent amount

like $150+
