tartar sauce is also good for french fry dipping, especialy if eaten alongside fish

[harsh quartz]

Oh yeah another white staple, tartar sauce

No bueno

[hot tartan]

Yeah I don't use tartar sauce that often, if I get it served at a restraunt I'll have it, but that's about it

[harsh quartz]

If fish needs tartar sauce something’s gone wrong

Same as steak and steak sauce

[hot tartan]

nah for fried fish I like tartar sauce, but notfried tartar sauce is a no go

[weak sonnet]

tartar sauce is one of my favorites with fries

YES

[harsh quartz]

I’m not sure if we need someone that specific when we already have aquaman

[split swift]

it very good on onionrings

[harsh quartz]

That’s fair actually

Although I think whatever sauce Outback has for the blooming onion is a better fit

[gilded quest]

Is this ketchup+mayo+salt

[hot tartan]

most likely

just like any other sauce

i pay for premium

i shouldnt have to run a fucking adblocker for the FRAMERATE to work properly

i didnt even do it to fix that issue, i did it to fix the AI and sponsored links in search, and just so happened to notice that my fps issues are gone after

anyways back to trying to figure out how to write a coverletter

you wouldn’t want to breathe dry air in africa

you’ll feel like you’re drying up literally 💀

wouldn’t say either low humidity or high humidity is better at those temps

[winged spire]

Dry heat is objectively better

[spice niche]

Hi

[mystic tundra]

rip lungs

[winged spire]

what

humidity makes heat feel much worse and makes heat far more dangerous

[mystic tundra]

dry air removes moisture from your airways more effectively

[winged spire]

yes

it also makes your sweat work

you cannot cool yourself down in high humidity

I’d take 120° at like <10% humidity over 90° 90% humidity all day

[mystic tundra]

i should’ve went with medium humidity

[winged spire]

I live in a swamp

lol

[mystic tundra]

i’d take 50% over 20% at that temp

10% would make my airways feel like well done chicken nugget crust

although 50 degree is extreme either way which i’ve never experienced

i’ve only experienced 45 on a vacation

ig at that point you only care about not getting a heat stroke so dry better

[inner plank]

I’d take -20C any day over 30C

Fwiw the voice input is actually fantastic

[rough socket]

Oh well it really just works for hdr, and Dolby vision is useful only if you have a 2k nits tv

And then almost NO boxes really support real DV

If you want "real" DV support you need one of those aliexpress media boxes with corelec on it

Because it only shows the large-scale DCs

Google has PoPs all over the world

[rough socket]

Creepy

[mystic monolith]

Why? M5 is way too powerful of a chip to put in a TV, lol

[gilded quest]

That's the whole point
Make it overpowered now and it should be usable for 10 years

[meager zinc]

If you cant talk about it here then I would prefer to not talk about such topic at all

[harsh quartz]

Unexpected

https://youtu.be/817lxO6xBRs?si=NC4HpSM_WGNkXWk1

[winged spire]

What

[mystic monolith]

There's balance to be considered. Probably the A18 Pro (Same chip as Neo) would be a better trade-off, even the non-pro version. There's no reason to put laptop-level processors in TVs, even if you consider future-proofing. A 10-year-old smartTV is usually terrible because the software doesn't get updated, not because the hardware can't catch up.

And those systems often have coprocessors for codecs, anyway.

[gilded quest]

An apple tv is a box you connect to your tv
Apple actually provides software support after launch

Hell even Nvidia has updated the shield tv for like 10 years now

All tvs have severely underpowered processors and crappy software anyways

[mystic monolith]

Oh yeah, my bad, you're right, I forgot it's not an actual TV. Nevertheless, what are you doing with it that requires M5-level processing power?

Are you running local LLMs on it?

[gilded quest]

Not everything is an AI play blud 😭

[mystic monolith]

Agreed, but M5 is swinging in the way overpowered direction

[winged spire]

Dozens

[gilded quest]

I just want an M4 Mac mini with less ram and less storage running tvOS

[mystic monolith]

Sure, but why would you pay M5 money (which includes all the AI processing stuff) if you're not going to use all of it?

[winged spire]

Several chip fabs too

[gilded quest]

Because they do not make a full application SoC without an NPU

[mystic monolith]

Heck, I bought myself an M5 Macbook Pro and I don't care about running local LLMs. Would've loved to be able to shave off $100-200 to not have the TPU.

[gilded quest]

Like an apple watch processor won't work for a tv box, and every other apple SoC just had high performance npu built in

Hell my current apple tv has an NPU

It's not used except maybe for Siri dictation?

[mystic monolith]

Wouldn't be surprised if Apple uses AI stuff to do some video processing

[gilded quest]

I mean they already have dedicated parts of the silicon for video processing

[mystic monolith]

For a TV box, that makes sense

[mystic monolith]

Hence my comment

[tame temple]

but it doesnt say it in the google datacenter website

[winged spire]

Ok..?

[mystic monolith]

Because that website only shows the big DC sites...

Why is the internet slow on my PC when I'm using linux? It's just the browsers, they open 2 minutes after clicking on them, I have to wait like 20 seconds for something to load on them

On windows everything's fine

[echo path]

which distro and the plain browser itself takes 2 mins?

[stiff pike]

Nobara (fedora) and brave

Brave was pre installed btw

I honestly do not know, first thing i'd try doing is making sure the internet is fine and then install smth like chrome

Well the internet is fine but on windows

I've been waiting for one thing to load since I first texted. Just loading yt music lol

Are u running it in a vm?

[stiff pike]

So that's...3 mins

[echo path]

Since windows might be hogging all ur bandwith

[stiff pike]

No

Windows on a secondary drive

Games run amazing on both systems no lags

[echo path]

try downloading chrome (or js download from windows onto the linux drive if its too slow)

[stiff pike]

I'll install on a pen drive and launch on Linux cuz it's so slow

[echo path]

also in terminal try ifconfig -a to get ur ip

and then ping that

to see if theres any packet loss or shi

[stiff pike]

What browser do I install? I love brave and hate everything else

[echo path]

Maybe firefox

[stiff pike]

Okay

[echo path]

chrome is pretty standard which i use on all my machines but not sure if you'd like it

[stiff pike]

Fire fox is . exe, I mean the installer. So I launch it through wine?

[stiff pike]

It's too boring

[echo path]

firefox is on linux

u can js try sudo dnf install firefox

might work

[gilded quest]

Sudo apt install IE5 😎

[stiff pike]

Everything fine on Firefox

Very fast no lags

[echo path]

try reinstalling brave then

try smth like sudo dnf remove brave-browser

and then sudo dnf install brave-browser

i dunno fedora commands that well

[stiff pike]

Reinstall did nothing

[stiff pike]

I know. Some application names "KDE wallet services" open and when I close it brave is fast

Opens when I open brave

Created some fuck ass wallet and it helped

[tawdry light]

chat shall i go with the ryzen 5 3600

[gleaming cove]

I face an internet related issue on Linux frequently. I haven't tried to see if there's a fix for it yet because I don't use it as my main OS. But if I am in a google meet on linux, it starts stuttering and it also causes more problems if I start playing a youtube video along with it (more stuttering in the meet). But it's fine on windows.

I had this problem in Chrome and firefox. Haven't tried it on Brave yet. Idk if it's browser dependent or dependent on how the OS prioritises the bandwidth that you have.

[tawdry light]

i am hesitating but ig its the only ideal option

[hardy pilot]

what's the other option?

from what are you upgrading?

[tawdry light]

nothing is really in that price range except for the ryzen 5 4500

[tawdry light]

[hardy pilot]

you can always save up a bit more to get a 4000 or 5000 cpu too (if possible)

[fossil frost]

how do you know the computer was driving?

you have no context at all

[tepid sparrow]

I'm making an assumption because if it was a human driver then...

[fossil frost]

because humans never crash?

[gleaming cove]

You trust a computer to fly the plane you sit in

[fossil frost]

or... humans crash FAAARRR more frequently than computers

[tepid sparrow]

Look, I just find it disappointing that people my age never learned to drive

[tepid sparrow]

Did I say that? No.

[fossil frost]

i find it disappointing that most people are idiots.. but there we go

Just wanna make sure im correct that a qualdro p2000 is ruffely equivalent to a gtx 1060 right?

more to the china exclusive 5gb 1060

[rare otter]

It uses the same dye thats why im wondering

[left cargo]

What?

There was 5GB 1060 wow

[rare otter]

So the p2000 is litterally just a low profile 1060 China edition

[hardy pilot]

(the 1060 is more powerful tho (uses more power too)

[hardy pilot]

kinda

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-gtx-1060-5-gb.c3060

[left cargo]

That’s very cool icl

[rare otter]

Stripped down 1060 then

[hardy pilot]

mehhh, the 6 gb was better

[rare otter]

Wait what if I over clock the card?

[hardy pilot]

yeah, probably like 1060 3gb with 5gb

[left cargo]

I mean like how Nvidia made gpu for different countries

[hardy pilot]

it doesn't have an external power connector so not a lot of wiggle room

[rare otter]

Honestly the 1060 3 gig would of actually been a decent card if it it more then 3 gigs of vram

So will take it

[rare otter]

Good point

[left cargo]

What do you plan to use for the cpu

[rare otter]

Oh its already put together

[rare otter]

Intel core i5 6600

even the 1060 3gb is more powerful

[left cargo]

Nice

[hardy pilot]

you can't boot form that nvme tho

[rare otter]

Why not ?

[left cargo]

What would happen if you pared a GT 730 2gb and a 9800x3d

[rare otter]

But will that.be noticeable in gameplay or only.in benchmark test

[hardy pilot]

pretty sure 6th gen didn't have support for it

[hardy pilot]

no idea ngl

[hardy pilot]

big gpu bottleneck

[rare otter]

Gameplay is what I care about. On medium settings this build gets ruffely around 50 fps on spiderman

[hardy pilot]

oh, not bad

[rare otter]

Im sure if I configer some settings a lil more I can get 60

[hardy pilot]

yeah, probably

[rare otter]

And with lossless scalings frame gen I can get up to 140

And it still be playable

Thanks to the p620 which picks up where the p2000 slacks

[left cargo]

Is it in a optiplex?

[rare otter]

Dell precision

[hardy pilot]

ngl, you might get more perf out of a 1030 than from the 620

[hardy pilot]

t serie?

wait, no

[rare otter]

I chose a dell precision 3620 because it has 2 gpu slots

[hardy pilot]

cause they had xeon cpu

[rare otter]

Actually the p620 beats the gt 1030

[hardy pilot]

really? damn

[hardy pilot]

wait, which version of the 1030? 2gb or 4gb?

[rare otter]

Yeah. The p620 is litterally just the gtx 750 ti but better and it has dx12 support

Also both

The p620 beats the gt 1030 by 54.2%

[hardy pilot]

really? both? damn

[rare otter]

I did it research. When your a budget gamer. You really have no choice but too

[hardy pilot]

I was a budget quen before, I played on a k2000

[rare otter]

It beats the gt 1030 4 gig by 54.2%

The gt 1030 is a joke even with 4 gigs of vram
A card that cost like 25$ used and only has 2 gigs of vram beats it

[hardy pilot]

(upgraded the cpu to an e5-2690, 32 gb of ecc ram, 3050 lp)

[rare otter]

I just know how to stretch a dollar.
And i put together a pretty solid dual gpu build for 150$

The ram and m.2 was the most expensive parts tho

Cause the shortage

[hardy pilot]

and then upgraded to a better system;

desktop pc specs:
r5 5600gt (I know, shush);
32 3200mhz ddr4;
6750xt;
1tb wd black nvme;
windows 11 Iot ltsc;

(I'll upgrade my desktop to an r9 5950x soon tm)

[rare otter]

But still 24 gigs of ram for something that cost less then a switch 2 id still hreat

[rare otter]

Idk much about amd. But thay sounds good

[hardy pilot]

it's a bad value cpu but I'll get a way better one soon (basically the best for am4)

[rare otter]

I was playing war frame at maximum settings using lossless scaling frame gen

[rare otter]

Its great

[hardy pilot]

no plushies on the workspace?

[rare otter]

Its my brother in laws setup i put together for him

So no. I would if I could tho

[hardy pilot]

ohhh I thought you put it tgt at your place

[hardy pilot]

coucou and sharkie are always wif me when I work on pcs at home

[rare otter]

I dknt have plushies on my desk either because my desk is tiny

[rare otter]

But you see what I mean when I say the p620 picksup where the p2000 slacks??

[hardy pilot]

ohhhh, mine are on my laps cause they are comfier dat way

[hardy pilot]

yeshhshshshshshhshsh

[rare otter]

I thought about this.

Cause I know the p2000 will only get him so far

So the p620 will generate the frames in-between during more demanding games

Works put just fine and the dude has a better cpu then me. That jackass

I spoil him

[hardy pilot]

yes, but even that will get "old" "soon"

[rare otter]

As long as most games can get 50+ i dont think he will care

[rare otter]

And the gpu in my build is a 11 years old and it still serves me well

[hardy pilot]

it's a 12 gig card, not that bad ngl

[rare otter]

+if a game struggles all i gotta do is enable fsr because for some reason fsr loves maxwell cards

[hardy pilot]

more vram than my server's, laptop's and older desktop gpus

alrighty goody nighty

gotta go eep

[rare otter]

Night night too youbgoober

Bruh I just watched a gas sign change in real time live

Was sitting at a red light and watched gas go from 4.49 / gallon to 4.64 / gallon

[left cargo]

Yeah that helped me get to 48gb ram

[hidden cypress]

got that slow internet huh

I went for the 1TB DDR7 cloud pack

[alpine gale]

If this were to happen, there would be regulatory problems very quickly, so it's a good thing it's not happening.

[left cargo]

But will it need any type of id verification?

Like a one time thing?

[hidden cypress]

in the USA, services likely will

some states are writing regulation that says the service themselves must verify ID, others say the device "provider" (os company) must, and then transmit that verification to the services

[calm swan]

arch? it’s the same process of getting an iso and stuff

[hidden cypress]

it's all super unclear, we'll know more after the midterm elections in the US

[left cargo]

I just went to the website clicked some random stuff and left

[hidden cypress]

maybe you're not the linux desktop target audience then? I mean this lovingly lmao

[left cargo]

I really hope it doesn’t go through

I hope they change Outlook atleast into win ui. Webview sucks

Discord and WhatsApp also sucks now on desktop.

[stoic beacon]

The problem was the removal of features from the desktop experience. You can’t expect to take the ONLY advantage over Gmail away and then have people stick around

[gleaming cove]

People will still stick around because of companies using this.

Every dept probably has their own team and that's the biggest problem with microsoft. They thought they could make development easier with just web devs, which is not okay for a pre installed app.

I think they're adding it back now so Outlook might be getting back to winUI

https://thecybersecguru.com/news/massive-attack-ubuntu-canonical-313-team-extortion/

[harsh quartz]

Oh, and that’s after the issue found with the Linux kernel. I wonder if they’re trying to keep people from updating

https://youtu.be/uv_F6gLbBiU?si=FV0ut3AVfFPl_sN4

[gleaming cove]

I was just about to post this

[gleaming cove]

I think many have patched it already right?

[marble pilot]

Well, the kernel exploit lets you gain root access on machines but it doesn't really affect personal users.

[marble pilot]

I think most people actually haven't. I run kubuntu on my laptop and I'm on kernel 6.17.0-22-generic and I haven't done anything to patch and I have a bunch of Ubuntu LXC containers on my proxmox server running kernels older than that on 24.04 and I haven't gotten around to updating yet.

[harsh quartz]

Yeah but if the patch manager is down, that doesn’t just affect personal machine

[marble pilot]

You're right.

[harsh quartz]

It’s just strange timing

[gleaming cove]

If this required user permission to execute and cause problems then it would be fine and not affect anyone but from my understanding, any other compromised app could utilise this exploit right?

[harsh quartz]

Kernel level exploit is discovered, and then there’s an attack on one of the larger Linux’s distros that prevent people from patching

[gleaming cove]

Wasn't this discovered a month back?

[harsh quartz]

Everything in seeing is within the last week, April 22 is the oldest I see

[gleaming cove]

WSL is also affected. And Microsoft has to release a patch for that

[rustic tundra]

microsoft attacked

[marble pilot]

huh?

[gleaming cove]

Microsoft relies heavily on Linux lmao

[marble pilot]

The early 2010's MacBooks were great. I had a 2013 MBA that I used without issues until it got stolen in 2019. Bought a 2018 model right after, which was absolute shit.

[gilded quest]

Shouldn't have let it get stolen, that's on you bud

[mystic monolith]

Victim blaming isn't cool, man.

[strange elk]

Same. But without the a. And it is my daily driver.

[fossil dirge]

In the bright side at least Apple improved a lot on the MacBooks ever since they went with their Apple Silicon now their Macs work really well

I have my MacBook Air with the M5 chip and it works very well for me

I also have my Razer Blade which I love my laptop though but I find using the Mac a lot better

[winged spire]

have threadrippers gone down in price?

[hardy pilot]

No idea (there’s no way they got a threadripper machine for this cheap)

[stray quarry]

hi

[mystic monolith]

Yeah, the Apple silicon models are amazing. I've got an M3 MBA for work and a M5 MBP myself, they're great

[agile bay]

Guys I need help, need the communities opinion 😬

I’m making “Game OS”
There will be a point system (like gamerscore - Xbox) via playtime, achievements wct

But every so often it’ll generate “coins” of some sort to purchase game intros, gamer pics ect

Should I have some free ones but comes with challenges tied to platforms, for exmaple ps3, if player has x amount of playtime = reward. If user has x amount of achievements unlock reward?

Playtime 10,20,50,100 hours ect

[fossil dirge]

Yup it works very well I have to give a lot of credit to Apple for the Silicon chips

[harsh quartz]

102050100 hours is a long time for a reward

[agile bay]

It was an over exaggeration. But it’s for the whole platform nkt just 1x game.

So user coukd play 5x games 1x hiur each, platform = 5x hours playtime

[mystic monolith]

Apple has been doing great work recently. Never been a fan of iPhones, but their MacBooks have been great since they started using Apple silicon. Really think the Neo is also a great play.

The prices they charge still feel a bit high, but I nevertheless decided to buy a new MacBook just because I haven't seen any other laptop brand beat that quality. It helps that I had a buddy who worked at Apple that was able to get me a 25% discount

[mystic monolith]

What kind of platform will this be, because I don't expect it'll be an actual operating system. How do you plan to integrate with Playstation/Xbox/Steam/etc?

[agile bay]

Windows, Mac, lunix.

It auto finds, games, Roms and installers. It displays metadata details and has emulation support.

Switch emu, will inc achievement support.. (exclusive feature)

Xbkx 360 emu, achievement tracker

Other achievement fetching, steam api, local steam achievements (😬), Exophase and retro achievements… these will all be merged into one.

Users on Xbox 360 legit can unlock x amount of achievements, then continue on “Game OS” and it’ll be in sync

Api keys will be localised but account tied as well to prevent cheating and other security risk.

[fossil dirge]

I agree Apple is doing a great job with their Macs

[mystic monolith]

Lunix? Isn't that the OS that those communist hackers use?

[agile bay]

Meant Linux, like bazzite, steam OS ect

[mystic monolith]

lol, it's a reference to an ancient parody article: https://ryanfarley.com/blog/archive/2004/02/13/343.aspx (not the true source, but archive links are blocked in this server, it seems)

[agile bay]

Ohhh 😂🤣 buttt bavk to what I was saying, challenges based on platform achievements and playtime “ps2” “switch” ect you recon it’s a good idea?

Was thinking later down the line it identifies what games you like playing, and recommends games based on platform, genre ect but also weekly challenges to encourage others to play other games?

hot take: planned obsolescence is a good thing because it make us shareholders happy and more revenue for compaines like Samsung, Google, Apple and including a monopoly of services

[alpine gale]

Planned obsolescence is only good for stonkholders in the short term. Long term, it eventually results in collapse of the stonk market and eventually the human species.

As long as it only affects the next generation it's fine

yeah, if everything had planned obsolescence the building you live in would probably collapse within 50 years

so they can sell you a new one

subscribtions for tap water

at $499 based plan, no hot water, low pressure
$2999 for hot water, low pressure
$3999 for hot water, high pressure

[winged spire]

Literally that’s how it works

You pay a monthly fee for tap water based on how much you use

[mystic tundra]

i meant they install additional equipment to limit the pressure you’re getting and no hot water if you don’t opt for the plan, plans wouldn’t include water usage

[winged spire]

How would they prevent you from adding a water heater

[mystic tundra]

they would rust and clog within 2.1 years bc planned obscolescence

actually you wouldn’t even able to be buy one because a multi trillion company bought all of the relevant manufacturers and dissolved them so you buy their tap water plans

[hardy pilot]

Not in my city anymore (since two years ago)

[winged spire]

Then you pay for the water in your taxes

[mystic tundra]

yeah same a heat is too large for the apartment i live in

would have to remove and add walls

but it’s irrelevant bc of planned obsolencence i cannot even buy a good cement and tools that can handle the actual work!

[winged spire]

Most of the products I buy are quality 🤷

People say this shit just after buying the cheapest possible Chinese garbage

[mystic tundra]

same

well expect kingston 256gb drive that corrupts video files

and thermal module that got a shortin capacitor

my fault for buying the cheapest

i’ll issue warranty claim later for the kingston drive

doubt anyone would buy such flash drive even if it’s nand crisis

what else broke this year hmmm

probably nothing else

[harsh quartz]

Wait is it not sarcasm?

I’m very confused right now

[restive lion]

fug

[hardy pilot]

(It’s not)

[crystal flare]

here's a thought. take these ai companies to court over various things like image generation stealing from both copyrighted sources and artists, bring up the fact that this stuff can be used to make deepfakes of people without their consent. i'm sure there's some court that will take the case, if the uk can sue valve for being a monopoly, why can't we sue these ai companies for their technology bein borderline illegal.

sure this may stunt humanities evolution, and cause a ripple effect in the tech world, but hey, at least ram prices would finally go down as millions would begin to give up on it, because "I can't generate my Waifus!!"

Seriously what has happened to holding large companies accountable?

[queen glen]

Because most people are so easily pleased by these big companies they completely ignore the moral side of things like for say Disney, terrible company but hey they give us good shows and movies so who cares

[crystal flare]

good shows my ass, everything disney produces is terrible.

[hollow token]

certainly a minority opinion

[harsh quartz]

Here’s the fun part, they have, here’s the really fun part, they’ve lost

[crystal flare]

any recent cases?

[harsh quartz]

I’d consider them all recent but yeah gimme a minute

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/jun/26/meta-wins-ai-copyright-lawsuit-as-us-judge-rules-against-authors

An no, this isn’t image gen, but it’s a precedent

[crystal flare]

How did they lose?!

[harsh quartz]

uhhh its been a hot minute but IIRC its because the authors failed to show "actual damages"

basically said tat even though they could prove the AI would regurgitate their books word for word, it wasnt enough to prove any actual loss on the authors side

[mystic tundra]

not the AI-driven that’s more salt in the injury

why the question marks

[harsh quartz]

i dont know what you mean

[west oar]

it means ai bad

[alpine gale]

Not sarcasm. I'm just PTSD scared for any large acquisition due to how poorly many of them in the tech sector have been going over the last 10 years.

I can understand a summary of a cited source, but you gotta cite the source

[twin raft]

[hollow token]

I don't mean to get into it, but also all the deepfakes and vile shit going on with image/video generating. It's just a lot of grime x_x

[uneven stirrup]

ram high, ai bad

[twin raft]

They keep dumping more money into AI but I'm honestly not seeing it's worth

[uneven stirrup]

What’s funny is all this money is going into ai… and like… nothing has been like blown my socks off

Don’t know if that’s mean to say or anything… but I truly haven’t seen true invocation in the ai field

[hollow token]

I think AI in the scope of chatbots, image/video generating is going poorly, but in the realm of surveillance and healthcare I've heard some big stakes in AI

[uneven stirrup]

Yeah… cause they make money by doing that kinda crap

Surveillance bs

[hollow token]

AI isn't just word generator, it's just a neural network trained to follow the most weighted path

[dim agate]

my company's going to start rolling out a new AI agent, pretty cool for automating a bunch of things that otherwise we would be putting hundreds of manhours a month into doing anyway

[hollow token]

that sucks

But also what most companies are doing with the technology. undercut people for AI

[dim agate]

they invested into it a couple years ago, a beta version is coming in soon

[dim agate]

for this particular one in my company nobody's being cut, and you're going to always need humans for SOC anyway

these things are being automated anyway, it's just way easier to automate using AI rather than taking a week to figure it out yourself

[hollow token]

Oh so this is an industry standard thing to be automated, you're just replacing a team that used to do it with an agent?

[dim agate]

no we're replacing an outdated system

whenever there's innovation people are going to lose jobs, imagine how many people lost jobs when excel came out

[hollow token]

The historical context goes short with this newest innovation. AI is meant to fill in for the human. Every other innovation before was meant to convenience the human

[dim agate]

people used to just work as calculators before computers

find a person working as a calculator now

[hollow token]

Put yourself in a horses boots (hooves?). Farming equipment was invented to convenience the human, but it also filled in for the horse. Now horses have nothing to do except look nice and ride for competition/travel (which also, cars filled in the horse for travel, so that's now for enjoyment than necessity)

[analog kernel]

hi?

[gleaming cove]

usually, a lot more people are going to gain jobs in another industry because of this

[dim agate]

so we should get rid of cars in order to use horses more? what's your point here

[hollow token]

Don't perceive the rise of AI with the historical context of creating jobs we can't perceive of yet, because AI doesn't follow the historical context. It's not conveniencing a human, it's filling in for one

[dim agate]

"It's not conveniencing a human, it's filling in for one" i feel like you're a chatbot

[gleaming cove]

Everyone said the same thing when computers came

What makes this any different

[hollow token]

I feel like you're missing what I'm trying to say

[dim agate]

can't imagine thinking that as a human calculator, i would have a job after the creation of excel

don't get me wrong i'm not arguing for AI to be in everything, i think your take is just stupid

[hollow token]

Then you're missing my point

[dim agate]

i could get a python script to replace a job and you would believe that's bad

[dim agate]

is this your point

[hollow token]

you recycle the excel part and the calculator part when I'm thinking of the greater scope

[dim agate]

can you define the greater scope?

you've just been talking about horses and "filling in for a human"

[hollow token]

Don't perceive the rise of AI with the historical context of creating jobs we can't perceive of yet, because AI doesn't follow the historical context. It's not conveniencing a human, it's filling in for one

[dim agate]

you just copied what you said earlier???

[hollow token]

That is my point

[dim agate]

chatgpt please reply with something else

[hollow token]

These are all my personal thoughts. I'm not getting them from anywhere else

[dim agate]

so using AI to automate something = bad
using an automation team to automate something = good

you're just saying a bunch of nothing

[hollow token]

I don't believe in absolutes

[dim agate]

right you just think AI is bad

[hollow token]

In a lot of ways yeah

[dim agate]

what do you think AI is actually good in

[hollow token]

well it's doing really well in the surveillance front, and it is actually making some good strides in healthcare

[dim agate]

elaborate

[hollow token]

surveillance side, the flock cameras and facial recognition have been the best surveillance technology we've had

healthcare side, AI has been able to recognize tumors more efficiently than doctors have been able to

[harsh quartz]

I really like the movie hidden figures for this point

[hardy pilot]

There’s a research that used image processing and analysis to find cancerous cells before human could see them

1 research

Only 1 for now

[dim agate]

but we've already had facial recognition in the past without AI and humans used to do this already, isn't this taking away jobs?

[harsh quartz]

flock surveillance being "the best surveillance" is a hilarious statement. Its only good surveillance cause theyve just put cameras everywhere. has nothing to do with AI :P

[dim agate]

healthcare part i'll give you credit i've read an article on that

[hardy pilot]

So not exactly a big enough pool of results

[dim agate]

eh it's gotta start somewhere, results take time

[dim agate]

added to my watch list thanks

[harsh quartz]

good movie

[hollow token]

Well, no. Flock does more than recognize faces. It's able to elaborate on the actions of people, string recognized faces to a database that uses AI to connect locations of where they recognized said faces

[hardy pilot]

Yes, but it can’t be used as an argument since there isn’t any other evidences of the potential benefits

[dim agate]

1 research is better than 0, at least you have some ground to stand on

[harsh quartz]

this is a really cool use of AI too, even if it is just a one off for now https://www.the-scientist.com/chatgpt-and-alphafold-help-design-personalized-vaccine-for-dog-with-cancer-74227

[hollow token]

This is the core infrastructure of AI

AI at it's foundation is a network of nodes, trained to follow the most preferred/weighted paths

[dim agate]

wait so using AI to recognise faces is a good use case but using it to automate something nobody wants to do is a bad use case

[hardy pilot]

Yes, and im not against it at all but you can’t base an argument on a 1 of 1 research paper, you can use it amongst other arguments but using this as a sole source is not a good thing Nil

[hollow token]

You're misunderstanding my values of good and bad

[hardy pilot]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-apparently-obviously-gif-19251629

[hollow token]

It's good if it actually does something new a human couldn't do. It's bad if it fills in for a human

[dim agate]

don't worry he's only talked about horses, surveillance, and healthcare. don't forget about the "It's not conveniencing a human, it's filling in for one" quote

[dim agate]

humans can do surveillance as well

[hollow token]

Not in the capacity flock has

[dim agate]

you work in the surveillance industry?

[hardy pilot]

Oof not a gud argument

[hardy pilot]

Or work at all? ngl

[harsh quartz]

so the funniest part about flock systems, is basically the only confirmed GOOD uses of flock have been due on a subsect of cameras in a certain area where they already knew a specific car make model and color was going to be, and they were able to use flock cameras in taht area to find and track the car a week later and get its license plate, but i dont see how thats ANY different than just... having cameras?

but noooo, we have to use AI to register people and track them specifically, because thats helpful...

[hollow token]

I'm taking no attack on anybody's character. But be careful doing so, just shows the confidence in your take

I simply mean to learn and solidify my own opinion of the subject. At the end of the day, I'm no larger than the collective so my opinion stops short of myself

prebuilts have hit an all time high i just saw a watercooled pc with an intel Pentium gold

and no gpu

genuinely if it were cheap enough then it would be a decent base since it has a nice case and seemingly decent motherboard and aio

but it had a weakass psu

[echo path]

Turns out you can now buy PC sticks which you just plug directly into a monitor like a firestick

[hardy pilot]

Yeah, intel made some a couple of years ago, there were also a couple chrome “sticks” at one point too

[echo path]

Well I could see where they could be used

[peak fiber]

any good headset recomend ?>

[echo path]

What's ur budget

Also wired or wireless (wired is better for esports or competitive gaming)

[oak pier]

wired is better, full stop.

[hardy pilot]

2.4ghz is good, offers quite a bit of distance freedom and is way better than Bluetooth

[rough socket]

Yeah well sure I'll use a wired headset in my living room at 3m

An audeze Maxwell basically means no audio quality loss from wireless for example

It's more expensive sure, bulkier too, but it's not "better full stop"

[oak pier]

“no audio quality loss” is a wonderful marketing term, especially given it’s impossible

No perceived audio quality loss is possible, but not the case most of the time

[rough socket]

Yeah you know the human hear have limits

[oak pier]

Which is exactly what i mention in the message directly above yours

[rough socket]

And since audio quality is all about perception it changes absolutely nothing knowing it's "perceived" or not

[oak pier]

“but not the case most of the time”

[rough socket]

Which is why we are here to advice him something that is good

If he does need wireless tho

It's just saying "it's better full stop" is just wrong

It's the same, most of the time they are garbage so eh

Hello friends

I’m new

hi guys im new here

[weak estuary]

help

[fresh siren]

just catch it?

[outer rose]

Quick question Ubuntu users.

I'm using MSI B450M PRO VDH MAX, Bios is at latest, and using 5600GT, I just noticed Firmware Updater on Ubuntu (installed the latest as of today, running on spare NVMe i have lying around)

Is it even okay to update the UEFI dbx? Current Version is at 20230501, Latest is at 20250902.

Won't it break my main NVMe bootloader where my Windows 11 23H2 is installed?

[gleaming cove]

23H2? Crazy
When is it's EOL?

[outer rose]

Now lol, eh i dont plan on updating it anyway, just giving Ubuntu a shot.

[fresh siren]

you can nothing gonna break

[gleaming cove]

I just checked
It's apparently november 11, 2025

[outer rose]

And the catch is?

[fresh siren]

none

[gleaming cove]

Yes you should trust Stalin-

either way, this isnt that server, so nobody cares, and nobody can do anything

[remote berry]

Hi

[hollow token]

💀

[remote berry]

Guys how do I stop my psu from having a heart attack while trying to handle huge spikes it’s a thermaltake smart 500w (I know it’s very bad I’m upgrading)

[fossil frost]

what cpu and gpu?

[remote berry]

My games keep crashing and everything is super laggy at startup

It’s a Intel i5 10400f and a rx6600 and I already troubleshooted my ram they are fine

[fossil frost]

that cpu+gpu combo shouldnt be putting any pressure on that psu at all

even with a heavy OC on both gpu and cpu, you should be more than fine with 450, nevermind 500

[alpine gale]

Shouldn't be, but... ahem as someone who's built a system with one of ThermalTake's "Smart" PSU's, I wouldn't be surprised if a component (likely a capacitor) is failing, causing it to shutdown under load.

[remote berry]

Well it’s been fine for about a year but now I’m having bad driver timeouts on every game, my pc sometimes won’t boot until the first or second boot and sometimes when it boots it acts as if it’s running on 20 fps and has a ton of input delay

[hardy pilot]

Windows shitting itself

[fossil frost]

was about to say this... the only thing i could think it could be is... a dead or dying part of the PSU that needs swapping out before it fully dies and takes out the rest of the system

[remote berry]

I’m going to get a seasonic gx 650 since I’m upgrading to a gigabyte b550 motherboard and to a and 5600

[fossil frost]

check event viewer for WHEA errors

[remote berry]

But that’s in like 20 days and I want to be able to play games until then

What’s a whea

[hardy pilot]

Wait for the new psu

[remote berry]

I can’t wait for a 500mb download to finish without doing something else…

[hardy pilot]

And?

[remote berry]

So that’s not going to happen

I’m too impatient

[fossil frost]

Windows Hardware Error Architecture.

[hardy pilot]

Oh well, not my fault if something happens

[remote berry]

I’ve tried to reset windows completely and it will be fine until I restart the pc again and then the problem persists but if a game runs normal it will crash within 5 minutes and I’ll get a driver timeout and if it runs bad it crashes a little bit later than 5 minutes

[remote berry]

I’ll look into it when I get home

[fossil frost]

windows is really good at telling you whats wrong with it

[gleaming cove]

Doubt it
Seems like a hardware issue (probably a fixable issue but we would need to check the event viewer for more info)

[remote berry]

I’ve even tried using ddu and completely wiping it

[fossil frost]

you are trying to solve a hardware issue with software

you need to look at event viewer and look at what the hardware issue is, and fix the hardware issue

[remote berry]

what can I do to make it work temporarily without killing my components

[gleaming cove]

We need to know what the error is first

[remote berry]

And I’m going to look into errors

[fossil frost]

look at the error log, and find out what the error is. without knowing what the issue is, theres nothing we can tell you

[remote berry]

It will probably be about 10 mins before I can check

I will come back to tell you guys when I can check

[hardy pilot]

Yes, but a failing psu wouldn’t cause this

[fossil frost]

yes, it could

[remote berry]

I mean i do have one of the worst rated psu

[fossil frost]

but so could many other things, which is why we need to know what the error is

[hardy pilot]

Cause huge latency? Never seen a psu cause that

[remote berry]

Because I cna move the mouse and about a quarter of a second later it would move it

But some boots it acts as if it’s fine until you try to load a game

[fossil frost]

a PSU dropping the 3v line to 2.5v and then back up to 3v again, leading to ram suspending its self and waking again, or the 12v line dropping the number of amps it can produce, or dropping in voltage, in turn, limiting the cpu or gpu frequency? that would cause massive lag/latency. so yes.. it can, and does cause those issues

[gleaming cove]

When the power requirement increases, it is causing issues?

[remote berry]

I mean whenever I play rust it will get 17 fps in the menu but will slowly go up to a high of 210

[hardy pilot]

Oh well I guess I never had to deal with a barely functioning psu, I’ve exploded some but never dealt with dropping voltages this much

[fossil frost]

as kirashi said, it could be a failing capacitor, leading to the PSU being.. iffy... not failed, but, intermittently giving bad stability, which can 100% lead to all of what has been described

[remote berry]

And it’s sometimes while doing the cleaning up stage of loading into a rus map

I could also try using msi afterburner and turning the power limit down like %20 to check for a bad stability issue in the psu

[fossil frost]

your motherboard monitors the power lines, windows monitors those sensors, windows will report WHEA errors if there are power errors

[fossil frost]

you are trying to solve a problem, when you dont know what the problem is.. you need to know what the problem is, before you make it worse by doing something you dont understand

[remote berry]

ok I’ll check WHEA first

And tell you guys

Oh another thing is that sometimes the audio will be poppy or having crackles in it

[fossil frost]

check the error log, error log will tell you what it is, and when you know what it is, you can fix it

[simple creek]

RIP Ask Jeeves

if its only been millions over 30 years, thats probably why it died

[winged spire]

Ship 40 rolled out to the test site last night

They’re really pumping them out now

Ship for the next 2 launches are just about fully finished

[remote berry]

There’s none there

It’s empty

[fossil frost]

try and force the issues to happen

load a demanding game

[remote berry]

Running rust to make it crash

[remote berry]

No errors after it crashed?

[fossil frost]

remove the filter, and just look for anything that has a red triangle, the filter might be too agressive

[remote berry]

nope still no errors at all

Oh wait I didn’t refresh it before I left

So Idk

[fossil frost]

just keep an eye on it, keep refreshing, keep checking, anything in red, look it up and see what it means

they usually persist across reboots and hard crashes too

[remote berry]

ok

[rough socket]

I really needed Ai for that thanks

[fossil frost]

something CPUs are specifically designed to do, arithmetic.. it would have taken a cpu... a cycle, maybe 2 cycles.. to calculate that.. AI model would have used a swimming pool to cool the 1000s of W's of power that it used to calculate that

[rough socket]

Yeah that's quite insane

Especially since I already have the normal conversion juste above lol

[hollow token]

You got a lotta tabs

[rough socket]

Yeah I'm a tab addict, and on the phone I often close them all

On the pc it's absurdly going over 300...

I just open a new tab for anything and don't close them

[pliant karma]

Sound about right for my friend too.

He started grouping them so it's tolerable.

[rough socket]

I sometimes just delete them, I don't really use them lol

[lethal pivot]

I'd say im not a tab person however on my phone...

i have 44 tabs open on samsung internet

[harsh quartz]

i didnt know my mobile brower had tabs until one day i randomly hit the button and it said i had 99+

i then figured out why my browser was running so slow
