[jovial sedge]

hiii guys is this the right place if I'm asking about hacking here?
(I might be a victim please lmk)
I'm sorry I'm kinda desperate

[left dove]

why do you think you're a victim of being hacked

[jovial sedge]

well, let's just say I think I'm getting blackmailed

the one I'm talking with is like.. talking about having footages of this and that
I wonder, if this is the right place ofc, how likely is it for someone to access my stuffs?

[left dove]

why do you think you're getting blackmailed

[left dove]

footage of inappropriate things, threatening to release them to social media unless you pay a fee?

[jovial sedge]

well... he wanted to like expose stuffs of mine, but those stuffs aren't known by many, not even some of my closest friends, he's threatening me

[left dove]

its a scam lmao

[jovial sedge]

I'm trying to play safe, I'm not talking to the person that much
no fee is getting talked about so far

nooo, the problem is actually surprisingly familiar
things that actually happens, partly or fully

[left dove]

thats why i said its a scam

[jovial sedge]

I mean, it's talking about the same person

soooo it's like "I hacked ur phone I have this stuff", how do I know if there's signs of my old phone getting hacked?

[left dove]

thats a scam

[jovial sedge]

really? but y'know man, I'm 90% sure that's someone I know

[left dove]

you are falling for a very old scam

[jovial sedge]

uhhh are you okay with continuing this, because I'm still afraid of things

[left dove]

Don't DM me

[jovial sedge]

yeah ofc not dm, here I mean
I'm no creep

[copper egret]

Hey.

[left dove]

but what you're describing is a very common, very old scam to extort people for money on the basis of potentially having illicit material of you & threatening to share it publicly

[jovial sedge]

but y'know they're not talking about money at all since the start
they're really wanting me to confess, though

[copper egret]

Just ask the person to send proof of their blackmail.

[left dove]

^

[jovial sedge]

won't that encourage them to like share publicly if it actually exists?

[copper egret]

Like what they have, if they do have like you doing something well now think about it.

[jovial sedge]

I wanted to confront less and just be careful with what I do and say .-.

[copper egret]

Maybe, but what fondation do they have.

[jovial sedge]

because this WILL really affect my school life if go boom or smth

[copper egret]

What do you think they have.

[jovial sedge]

idk, but I really do have some lead with who that is

[jovial sedge]

footage of me being.. not a good person

but y'know the thing is it happened like few months ago, yes it did partly and fully (there are two things he mentioned)

[copper egret]

That could mean a thousand things

[jovial sedge]

I'm sorry I couldn't be specific here

[left dove]

inappropriate or racist

[jovial sedge]

inappropriate

racism is somewhat not that bad in this school lmao
I mean, people act like it

[left dove]

ok so you have a schoolmate fucking with you trying to extort you into saying something embarrassing, when they probably have no proof at all.

[jovial sedge]

is it possible to get files easily? but I'm almost 100% sure they're waiting for me to confess

[left dove]

Ignore it, this is teenage moron antics

[jovial sedge]

like only questions and questions and questions

[plain cypress]

Don't negotiate with terrorists
Just block them and move on

[left dove]

THEY HAVE NOTHING.

[plain cypress]

They'll lose interest

[jovial sedge]

really?

[left dove]

its faux blackmail

[jovial sedge]

but about "they have nothing" I'm pretty not sure .-. that's the entire reason why I'm here

[copper egret]

They just want you to say something so then they can use that agaisnt you

[left dove]

they're just trying to scare you into saying something

[jovial sedge]

I'm afraid they have the stuffs, how am I being careful with this?

[left dove]

They have nothing on you ffs

[jovial sedge]

yeee I'm trying to determine whether they want confession or money
and whether they have proof and want to share or have another intuition
or troller all along

[left dove]

if they had something they would have released it long ago or been more direct

[copper egret]

You said you know who it, grab a group, baseballs bats and press em. Thats how you deal with that.

[jovial sedge]

oh okay that's really good
I didn't think of that
and yeah the footages, one is like 5 months ago and one is like... more than 7 months

[left dove]

this is a classic fucking scam and the fact that you're falling for it means that the person is getting what they want, i.e. fear out of you

[jovial sedge]

lol yeah that's why I'm also tryna figure out who this is
I HAVE to know because I wanna show smth

[latent pasture]

just send them brainrot memes and gifs

[jovial sedge]

thank you really tho now I can be more careful

[copper egret]

Or if you think you know who it is just dox em.

Like literally

[plain cypress]

Just pretend like they don't exist and move on

[jovial sedge]

yes the only reason why I'm responding is I'm tryna narrow things down

[left dove]

this is a federal crime, and inciting violence is not allowed.

[copper egret]

No, take the offense, defence will only get you so far.

[jovial sedge]

because they DID confess that they're hacking
doesn't matter true or not, it's illegal to do blackhat hacking right?

[left dove]

you're way too gullible.

[plain cypress]

If they're scamming you they'll lose interest
If they actually have something on you, then giving into blackmail doesn't actually fix it

[copper egret]

I didnt say hit em, i said press, scare em.

[left dove]

that's armed intimidation & menacing, also a crime

[copper egret]

Its using same force, they are also using intimidation.

[jovial sedge]

I mean yeah .-. I'm betting that there are chances of everything happening

[jovial sedge]

but y'know it's been like 20 or 30 messages and there is nothing other than asking for confession

[plain cypress]

No
When it comes to scammers it's a numbers game
Putting extra effort into a target who isn't biting isn't worth it, unless they're a dumb scammer. most likely they move on to the next victim

[copper egret]

Its a schoolmate, not some guy.

[jovial sedge]

oh yeah they did spam me and now haven't said anything in like few 10s of minutes

[plain cypress]

Literally pretend they don't exist

You can pretend other people don't exist

[jovial sedge]

most likely, but I haven't narrowed it down so much

[copper egret]

This stuff doesnt work, you will just become a target.

[left dove]

STOP. WORRYING. ABOUT IT.

[copper egret]

Just do that ye.

[jovial sedge]

.-. yeah maybe

[copper egret]

Worrying is the cause of all crimes.

[left dove]

no, thats stupidity

[jovial sedge]

unless if the sender does something again, I'll talk to you guys

[copper egret]

No it's the truth.

A robber doesnt rob for the thrill.

[jovial sedge]

I mean he does say that he have stuffs, but doesn't show or shi-
I think yeahh like what peyton said, tryna make me say smth

[copper egret]

A robber robs for the worrying of preservation.

[left dove]

yes my excessive worrying has led me to commit numerous federal crimes and I am actively on trial at the hague because my anxiety is so bad that I throw up sometimes

[storm jasper]

Hi chat

[rapid quarry]

https://tenor.com/view/hey-cat-waving-wave-paw-gif-11249423921160715390

[jovial sedge]

dayum
hi tho

thank you so much guys now I worry less
I appreciate y'all, but please let me ask again if there's a follow up :)

[plain cypress]

Mhm

[copper egret]

0-100, i am talking normal crimes, not like capital murder from mental reasons.

[plain cypress]

TMI on the last bit 🤢

[left dove]

no, your logic has been nothing but fuckin' dumb the entire time you've talked in here

[formal sonnet]

Have they shown you any proof of these "stuffs"? How are they communicating with you ? Email? Do you actually know them, or is this someone you "think" you know?

[copper egret]

Maybe you should understand rather then keeping your view of the world, evolving is adapting.

[left dove]

life is TMI

[left dove]

why would I want to listen to a dude who doesn't even know how to use a torniquet & wants to incite federal crimes

[jovial sedge]

• they haven't shown anything, but the accussations are somewhat.. true?
• they're communicating through instagram account, there's just a follower and following, and yeah just me so that account is just for that stuff
• my instincts says that I kinda know them somehow, but not that much

[latent pasture]

ur instincts suck

[jovial sedge]

yea probably that's true
tbh there's a probability of everything

[latent pasture]

u failed when u responded to them in the first place
just ignore them

[formal sonnet]

If any of the accusations involve ANYTHING generic or publicly accessible, they're bait.

Block em and move on. I regularly receive "we have hacked your webcam and watched you do naughty things pls pay us bitcoin or else" emails. Guess how many of my "naughty activities" have actually been leaked? 😛

[jovial sedge]

😭 exactly what I think

[copper egret]

Like i said we didnt have anything for a tourniquet and we didnt eve know how to do it, we are no medical professinals.

2 as i also said self defence is self defence

[latent pasture]

or just spam brainrot gifs at them

[jovial sedge]

not generic nor publicly accessible

[left dove]

intimidating someone with threats of physical violence & menacing is not self-defense.

[copper egret]

It is when getting blackmailed and harrased.

[left dove]

no, its not.

[copper egret]

It literally is.

[formal sonnet]

Then screenshot everything and contact your local law enforcement's non-emergency number. Tis not something we can help with, nor should we for your own privacy and safety. After all, what if the same person harassing you is right here, in this public Discord. 👀

[jovial sedge]

I'm really not trying to do offense here ngl

[latent pasture]

this guy is actively recommending them to do criminal acts in response to instagram dms i wonder how long theyre gonna last here lol

[jovial sedge]

oh yeah I'm totally gonna do that

[left dove]

hes already pissing me off

[copper egret]

Might as make a bot to spam yall, lets see what yall going to do.

[jovial sedge]

I mean, yeah that's unlikely

[left dove]

if this is a threat it's equivocal to threatening to withold cheese from pasta.

[jovial sedge]

lmao

[plain cypress]

https://tenor.com/view/kravatie-kravate-viva-kravatie-french-cat-gif-25816617

[copper egret]

It literally isnt

[plain cypress]

I'm gonna spam you with gifs

[jovial sedge]

but yeah something
I'm trying to make the guy stressed kekw

[formal sonnet]

So help me. If anyone witholds cheese from my pasta.... I'll bop em over the head. In Minecraft.

[copper egret]

Might as well enjoy these before a good night.

[jovial sedge]

without doing anything illegal, I'm partly trolling them in my responses

[delicate wedge]

Look what I scored at Costco for $20

[left dove]

oh 100% I'll whap someone upside the head with a blahaj if they deny me my cheese

[formal sonnet]

*in Minecraft

[woven crag]

Hey guys so I’m upgrading from the IPhone 11 to IPhone 16 Pro Max which is better option for charging MagSafe or USB C ?

[left dove]

god bless feta 💕

[copper egret]

Usb

Magsafe is really slow.

[left dove]

no in gta

[plain cypress]

I should have taken a pic of my new tires I got installed at Costco today

[mint umbra]

should I get gamesir cyclone 2 or the 8bitdo ultimate controller

[woven crag]

Really thought it was faster

[jovial sedge]

no way lmao
wired is faster

[copper egret]

It really isnt

[plain cypress]

U2C feels like a $30 controller tbh

[mint umbra]

cant decide between the 2

[woven crag]

Oh ok thanks

[formal sonnet]

Wireless charging is often slower than wired, and wears out your battery faster due to the extra heat it generates. I say usually because this is partly device dependent.

[left dove]

ja

[carmine yew]

Did you know that the mold that makes camembert and brie is in danger of going away in the near future?

[mint umbra]

I mean it is a 30 dollar controller

[left dove]

WHAT, NO

NO NO NO

[plain cypress]

Yes it is

[delicate wedge]

@woven crag the iPhone 16 Pro Max has a max wired of 45w and MagSafe 25w

[copper egret]

Magsafe is like ~25 watts
Usbc is like ~35

[left dove]

dude if I lose my brie I will cry uncontrollably

[mint umbra]

does charging speed matter that much

[left dove]

to some

[copper egret]

It does

[mint umbra]

dont most ppl charge phone when they sleep

[carmine yew]

Cheese scientists are working on it (yes that's a thing)

[left dove]

oh thank god

[jovial sedge]

ye obviously
y'know when you're just about to go and suddenly have the urge to charge your phone
there are times like that

[mint umbra]

so it shouldnt matter than much

[left dove]

no

[copper egret]

We do but sometimes battery drains faster in bad conditions

[plain cypress]

You should look up how fast some Chinese phones charge

[carmine yew]

Not by default

[azure topaz]

i want pizza

[mint umbra]

like how offten do ppl charge phones during the day

[mint umbra]

just seems like a gimmick

[copper egret]

In canada during bad weather 2.

[carmine yew]

The 80w+ ones are scary

[left dove]

depends on how old the phone is, the overall daily usage, etc

[mint umbra]

that isnt that useful

[mint umbra]

I live in canada as well

[jovial sedge]

also the heat 😨

[copper egret]

Then you might as well know

[plain cypress]

Maybe it is maybe it isn't
They can hit some impressive numbers tho

[mint umbra]

I hardly ever charge during the day

[copper egret]

What phone do you have and what do you use it for.

[woven crag]

Will this work or is there a better one

[azure topaz]

crazy bread

[jovial sedge]

damn anker

[plain cypress]

I sometimes top off at my desk or I plug in when driving (navigating) for more than 20 minutes

[azure topaz]

seems legit 🫡

[mint umbra]

because than ppl wouldnt have to buy more than one controller

[left dove]

it floppa

[copper egret]

Dont cheap out on cables please.

[carmine yew]

Yes and no, if you go from 0 to 80% in 10 minutes, that heat is on the battery for way less time

[azure topaz]

hello hello

[left dove]

that isnt a cheap cable

[mint umbra]

they keep old joysticks cuz they want them to fail

[woven crag]

It’s not it’s a 240 w cable $15

[jovial sedge]

less time but wayy hotter man
I never wanted to touch my friend's phone for that reason lol

[copper egret]

Watts and price doesnt mean a cable is good.

[azure topaz]

man the cable is fine 😭

[copper egret]

I have had cables last years and some weeks so.

[mint umbra]

the company making the controllers want them to get stick drift so they dont use hall effect sticks

[jovial sedge]

better than many phones' free included cable probably

[left dove]

take better care of your shit

[copper egret]

It wasnt user error, its just some cables just stopped charging fast

[left dove]

that is user error & damage

[woven crag]

Facts that’s what I’m using now on my 11 but I love anker I’ve been using them for years

[jovial sedge]

yeah no trust me I've used so many bad cables
but the one above is most likely good enough

[azure topaz]

i plug cable in, phone charge, happy

move data too, happy

[mint umbra]

am I only person who dosnt like braided cables feels less flexible

[copper egret]

I have had the same cable in the same place as some other cables and this is one lasted more then these offbrand cables.

[left dove]

the magic pixies are doing the happy dance when i plug my phone in

[jovial sedge]

feels more durable tho, imo
the main reason why I use them

[azure topaz]

i fuckin hate my phone

idk how to use it its all confusing

[jovial sedge]

lol what phone

[azure topaz]

all the settings in weird ass spots

man i just go to messages and spotify

[left dove]

same

text, youtube, spotify, discord

[azure topaz]

tweleve pro max

[mint umbra]

and regarding to fast charging isnt it bad for ur battery putting lik 100w into that thing

[jovial sedge]

oh dang
yea I never really used an iphone, can't relate

[azure topaz]

im not even an unc i just dont like mobile devices

[copper egret]

Not really, modern phones have things to control battery charging.

[mint umbra]

feel like putting that much heat into the battery aint good

[woven crag]

Should I get a different cable or power brick

[mint umbra]

100w is still 100w

sure they can lessen it a bit

[left dove]

I've thought about getting a laptop w/ a cell modem so I can just have data/texting & just revert my phone to a quick-access camera

[jovial sedge]

tbh y'know the brand poco? in Indonesia there are a lot of stories about how their phones just ded

[mint umbra]

but I still think over 100w is overkill

[random gyro]

why are we using such high wattage when we just plug in a phone overnight and go to sleep

[copper egret]

The phone still has regulators to control it. I am talking mainbrand phones not those 200$ motorolas.

[left dove]

I vehemently hate phone calls

[woven crag]

What’s the max for 16 pro max

[plain cypress]

Naw phone calls are so much better

[left dove]

specifically because phone calls make my voice sound like such ass

[jovial sedge]

idk, but I think mostly human errors
but these phones do have really fast charging y'know
so that might make more errors than usual

[plain cypress]

I hate trying to converse over text

[mint umbra]

why do ppl need fast charging when most phones these days have like 5000 capacity batteries

[plain cypress]

People are slow to respond

[copper egret]

45 i belive

[azure topaz]

100w at 5v is 20a thats not.... the worst

[left dove]

hell I'll take a discord call over an actual phone call

[left dove]

wtf no it'd be 20v at 5a

[jovial sedge]

y'all dont use whatsapp?

[mint umbra]

I never aswser a phon call unless I know who it is

[woven crag]

Ok

[random gyro]

no

[jovial sedge]

^^

[azure topaz]

your phone dont charge at 20v yo

[copper egret]

What a 5000mah battery will do when those CPU use so much battery

[plain cypress]

I once spent 4 hours of a work shift on the phone
I think I had 25 calls that night

[left dove]

phones dont charge at 20a either

[plain cypress]

From 2 work phones

[azure topaz]

if they were to it would be that

[left dove]

pixel 7 can take 12v pd standard

[mint umbra]

the newer cpus are pretty efficient

[jovial sedge]

no .-. certainly most bricks I see have more volts, and quite relatively small ampere

[copper egret]

They are, but still consume alot.

[azure topaz]

this would be cooler

[mint umbra]

like th new snap dragon chips

[azure topaz]

than twentyv

[left dove]

usbc pd is rated to 20v@5a

[copper egret]

Actually, snapdragons out of the bunch are the most poweful and thus consume more power.

[plain cypress]

Rip CPU

[formal sonnet]

I try to limit the number of communication apps / services in my life. I have a lot of these apps, but holy heckin hell I am not opening 20 apps weekly because 20 different people cannot agree on ONE standard.

[azure topaz]

i thought it was 19

[jovial sedge]

yeah I mean, that's valid

[plain cypress]

I'm American

[azure topaz]

or is that dell chargers

[left dove]

Discord for friends/socializing, signal for gf & gf's mom, texting for everyone else

[jovial sedge]

dang I have so many stuffs .-.

[left dove]

dc barrel jack chargers are commonly 17.5 or 19.5v

[azure topaz]

yeah im geeked

[jovial sedge]

mine is 19v 3. smth amp

[azure topaz]

[left dove]

[plain cypress]

Why are we suddenly in 2005

[mint umbra]

more custiomization with oneui

[left dove]

I have a truly in me and several keif'd bowls

[mint umbra]

clean android feels limitted

[jovial sedge]

I hate hyperos

[plain cypress]

Sobriety is so boring

[left dove]

it is

Legit I smoke weed to curb some of my autistic personality but it's also just so much less depressing to be unsober

also when you have a soft buzz going, empire of the sun hits so different

[plain cypress]

I don't even get drunk cause I dislike the taste of alcohol so I really only drink 1, maybe 2 beers at time

[azure topaz]

NGL as someone also on the spectrum, it's getting to the point where I'm down to giving it a try it

[sleek ibex]

Speaking of money, I just finished doing tax return shit

[jovial sedge]

[rigid fjord]

chorizo with chicken and cheese is even better

[azure topaz]

[left dove]

I just eat food tbh

[azure topaz]

[left dove]

sometimes eating is hard :(

[rigid fjord]

i kinda want chocolate ice cream again

[azure topaz]

i like chorizo but i had it a lot growing up so im mostly indifferent to it now

[formal sonnet]

I need to make a trip to one of my favorite food spots sometime. Craving an "Adult" Grilled Cheese, their soup of the day if it happens to be Broccoli Cheddar, or their Tuna Bowl.

[dark bronze]

https://a.co/d/icpgjJW

What do you guys think of this monitor?

[left dove]

please elaborate on an "adult" grilled cheese

[latent pasture]

32 inch 1080p wacka

[dark bronze]

I'm currently looking at IPS Monitors

[left dove]

1080p on 32" is going to look like absolute ass

[jovial sedge]

lol

what's the ppi I wonder

[left dove]

70 ppi

[dark bronze]

What should I look for then in an IPS Monitor?

[left dove]

I'd say bare minimum 1440p for 32"

[jovial sedge]

70 ppi is quite crazy

[left dove]

I'm so excited to get my portable display

16", 3k, oled..

I was excited when I learned you were like 10 minutes from me, so I told my gf and her instant reaction was "omg are you two gonna meet up??"

[azure topaz]

mayhaps at somepoint if its for hardware ventures

[left dove]

I just thought it was so funny like, babe, I have a decade on him.

[azure topaz]

that was kind of my thought process thank you

ill sell you computers 🔥

[azure topaz]

[left dove]

food stamps?

[left dove]

I'd get on it if I were you

I've got 3 people in the house and the state gives us a little over $900/mo in food stamps it's kinda absurd

[rigid fjord]

you should try salsa pasta with chicken/beef

[left dove]

ive done that but w/ bacon

[rigid fjord]

[azure topaz]

[dapper pendant]

Does anyone know how to set up emby?

[wet ember]

[dapper pendant]

Does anyone know how to set up emby?

[azure topaz]

what the fuck is emby man

[left dove]

if it looks/smells good, I'm gonna try it. If it tastes good, I'm gonna keep eating it

[azure topaz]

no. nobody knows thats why nobody responded to you

we all had the same reaction "wtf is that"

[whole garden]

whats that

[azure topaz]

[sleek ibex]

I do make homemade Syrian bread once in a blue moon but again..... I virtually have no time to do so

Okay looking at the 27'' Ver is Nano-IPS worth it or just stick with Regular IPS?

[rigid fjord]

same but slightly smaller capacity hdd's

[azure topaz]

i have so many computeres theres no reason why i shouldnt build a nas

[golden gale]

Is the pea sized dot in the centre thermal paste method still enough for more rectangular sockets like LGA1700? I did it that way, but after reading online a bit, it appears some places are suggesting a different pattern now

[azure topaz]

just do a line in the middle

not across the wwhole thing but you get it

[golden gale]

Should I redo it if it's already installed or should it be good enough?

[azure topaz]

probably fine

[dapper pendant]

I have it installeded but I can't figure out how to set up a server

[rigid fjord]

do the georgia flag on a retangular ihs

[azure topaz]

just fuckin go crazy with paste it doesnt even matter

[left dove]

it kinda does

[formal sonnet]

That guide is quite literally the server setup guide... Anywho, I use Jellyfin so I won't be of use.

[azure topaz]

a line, some dots on the edges, go wild

as long as you think and it gets everywhere 👍

the mount is far more important than how you put paste on

[rigid fjord]

nah, georgia flag works better for intel ihs's

[azure topaz]

whats tthe realistic temp difference

3?

[golden gale]

It's hitting about 90c in Cinebench, but otherwise fine. Guess that's just the 14700K being how it is

[azure topaz]

thats totally acceptable

[rigid fjord]

best paste pattern for intel

[azure topaz]

253w will do that

[rigid fjord]

what cooler?

[golden gale]

Yeah I capped the power limits. At first it was actually using like 320w+

[azure topaz]

man stock cpus are so shit

thats wild

[dapper pendant]

I did all of that but it won't work

[left dove]

so do it again

[golden gale]

Cooler Master ML360L

[dapper pendant]

Ok

[azure topaz]

a bitt warm id think for a 360 aio but it doesnt look to have a great block design so im gonna say its probably fine and you shouldnt bother redoing it. cinebench is far more intensive than a game

[formal sonnet]

In that case, I recommend creating a #1027757333117415424 thread with as much information as possible, like the exact steps you've tried, the outcome of those steps, and any hardware you're using, then patiently await assistance from a volunteer who might know what to suggest.

[dapper pendant]

Ok

[rigid fjord]

tweak your fan curve some, though there are better aio's out there

[rigid fjord]

[azure topaz]

some of my favorites, just like evga BBQ

[golden gale]

I think it was on sale at the time. I've had it about a year, was on a 13600K before this

[azure topaz]

probably fine

Anyone here good with printers?

I ran outta ink and wanna refill it(cartridge, with a hole on top), and am wondering if any ink will work for it or if it needs a specific type of ink

[minor sleet]

Nah man, sorry

[azure topaz]

fuck printers

[minor sleet]

What brand?

[normal blade]

My printer is Canon

Found some ink online, it’s for Epson printers

[minor sleet]

At least it’s not a hp

[normal blade]

I would never

Fuck HP

[minor sleet]

Man, as long as it’s the cmyk whatever, I don’t see why it shouldn’t work with those tank printers

[bitter violet]

damn this server doesn't have a niche room to talk about using linux network audio tech (that's what I was hoping for). I already reverse engineered the stuff that didn't work on linux too.

[left dove]

#linux

[formal sonnet]

#linux or #audio-tech are what you're looking for.

[normal blade]

Mine isn’t a tank printer, it’s a cartridge based one, I js refill it with a hole in the cartridge and a needle

[minor sleet]

I dealt with one recently and ended the day with a hunk of twisted metal, plastic, and covered in everything but black ink

[formal sonnet]

Ensure you're using the correct ink type. It'll be either Dye-based or Pigment-based ink.
https://www.cdw.com/content/cdw/en/articles/hardware/types-of-ink-for-printers.html

[bitter violet]

I mean what I've done is apparently hard to categorize. It's apparently not something anyone has done before

[minor sleet]

First time I used a sledgehammer, very relaxing

[bitter violet]

audio-tech probably better. I'm talking about dante mostly

[normal blade]

My printer is a Canon MG2580

Not sure which type that uses

[normal blade]

I don’t blame you lol

[minor sleet]

Got an ecotank something to replace it

Haven’t heard a word since, so I’ll assume it was a good idea

Except asking how to refill it

[bitter violet]

so I like did a system where every computer/device/hdmi source and microphone I use is mixed together with network audio hardware but also wireless. So I can walk around with mic/IEMs and low latency with discord/meetings/game consoles/phone/whatever

[minor sleet]

They never used a tank type printer

[left dove]

so you made VBAN

[bitter violet]

what's vban?

[left dove]

vb-cable audio networking

literally what you're describing lol

[normal blade]

Js checked it, supports 2 different cartridge types, PG846, and CL846

Gonna check what type I have

[bitter violet]

I use dante network audio hardware, it's proprietary but it works most of the time

only reason I'm asking here is that I don't think anyone else is doing this. I have a stupid amount of expensive hardware

I'd love to see someone replicate the setup but I don't think anyone else has imagined it. I'd like to be wrong though

[formal sonnet]

That printer does not exist on usa.canon.com 🤷

[normal blade]

Yea, it’s a Chinese only model I think

[bitter violet]

latency is less than 10ms overall, that's being extremely lazy. Most of it is 1-5ms

[normal blade]

But all the Mg25- series printers are the same

Js checked my cartridges, they’re Pigment based

[bitter violet]

have you used jack?

[left dove]

I have used an audio jack, yes.

[formal sonnet]

sigh. Restricting product models by country specific sites is a surefire way to make your customers frustrated. They should let you search for the product model on ANY of their country specific sites, then redirect the user if necessary. Old man yells at cloud.

[bitter violet]

I don't know how other people use it at all. I made a bunch of systemd scripts to look at the jack dbus graph and connect to clients

basically it auto connects when it should to whatever

[normal blade]

Even on the Chinese site, all I could find for it was ONE support document/manual

[formal sonnet]

K let's skip their aweful support site. What are the ink cartridge numbers?

[normal blade]

846s

Or wait 845s

Wait I’ll go check again, alr forgot😭

Well shit

[carmine vortex]

Got a slight problem with my 7600x. Upon restart after a power outage my 7600x hits 110° and then the pc shuts off to save itself. This repeats multiple times until whatever problem was going on resolves itself. It only happens after a power outage though.

[normal blade]

The black one is a PG-845S

But the color one is a CL-846S

[formal sonnet]

Unfortunately, I don't read Chinese, so good luck determining if they're pigment or dye based.

Reason 64532 to avoid inkjet printers. If you need Inkjet these days, go with inktank models.

[normal blade]

PG stands for Pigment based, and CL stand for whichever the other one is

[solar moat]

you cooler check that

[formal sonnet]

Aha, yes, I think you're right. https://www.canon-europe.com/pro/infobank/all-about-ink/

Most Canon inkjet printers use a hybrid system of pigment-based black ink (with the code on the ink cartridge starting PG for "pigment") and dye-based coloured inks (cartridge code CL, for "Colour Life", Canon's high-longevity dye-based inks technology).

because i tried it on both my phone and laptop and theres so much uhh,, stuff on there

along with so many movies i havent even heard of prior to now

[mystic lodge]

greetings!

[left dove]

🤨

why would you download something called that

[kindred halo]

What's that program supposed to be

[mystic lodge]

its supposed to find out everything your ip downloaded (i think)

[balmy tapir]

iknowwhatyoudownload.com?

[mystic lodge]

yes

[balmy tapir]

thats the site that just tracks ips on public trackers for torrents iirc

in which case, you can search by your ip and see things youve torrented on public trackers with your public ip

Our system collects torrent files in two ways: parsing torrent sites and listening DHT network. We have 13,593,867 torrents which where classified and which are using now for collecting peer sharing facts (up to 200.000.000 daily). We don't guarantee we can show ALL peer sharing facts:

yea

[left dove]

and keep in mind you don't keep the same public ip forever (unless you pay specifically for that from your isp)

[mystic lodge]

i tried multiple ips but non of them seem accurate

[frail delta]

A $200 premium isn’t really that much to have it professionally assembled, with a Windows license and a warranty

it says i downloaded shows and uhhhh material thats almost 53GB today mornign at 1am when i was studying

then someone on your IP probably was

or that

[frail delta]

Your ISP is likely using CGNAT 🙂

[kindred halo]

[frail delta]

Nope. It’s actually quite an accurate tool

[kindred halo]

Bogus means stupid / unreasonable, no?

[left dove]

bogus means fake

[balmy tapir]

its a legit site, just not 100% accurate

[kindred halo]

It's been in my vocabulary as stupid / unreasonable since the dawn of man

How many times have I misused this word

[frail delta]

Nothing ever is, but it also doesn’t just make up bullshit like an LLM. It’s very accurate

[balmy tapir]

well yea, its more likely to miss something than falsely add something

id imagine CGNAT is the cause in this case

Or “CHICKEN STRIIIIIIIIPS”

[left dove]

like my fractal render settings, many of them equate to "hey dipshit this is what you were using last night while stoned off your ass"

[minor sleet]

Or a random element + UUID

Yus

[vivid pendant]

Interesting

OC 5080 keeping up with 4090

hi

[elder quarry]

Hello

[left dove]

[elder quarry]

Sims?

[spring latch]

is it worth to get a 1440p monitor for twice the price of 1080p one?

[left dove]

yes

[elder quarry]

I played sims for a while ago, it was ok

[minor sleet]

Usage?

[left dove]

👀

[minor sleet]

And what monitors

[left dove]

thimth

[spring latch]

gaming

[minor sleet]

Weak shit

[left dove]

ohhh ive been trying to figure out that game

[elder quarry]

Dang

[left dove]

its really neat

[spring latch]

AOC 24G4XE and AOC Q24G2A/BK

[minor sleet]

It’s the first game I ever put 1000 hours in

Minecraft? Only about 900 hours, over 5 years

Stormworks? 1200 in a lil over a year

Been expanding my knowledge in it, with boats and planes

[eternal cloak]

Damn, that's less than half than my third World of Warcraft character

[minor sleet]

I’m a casual..ty gamer, I don’t normally put 16 hours a day every day for several years into a game

I put a very big gun on a train once :3

[eternal cloak]

I don't either lol

[broken saffron]

close enough

[eternal cloak]

The game's 20 years old, what do you think happened

[minor sleet]

Was so damn powerful I may had to’ve made it smaller (it deleted vehicles)

[minor sleet]

At least that’s stable

[eternal cloak]

Though tbf I also made 3,000 hours into a single FFXIV character within about 1.5 years

[minor sleet]

Stormworks is like trying to defuse a bomb, because one tiny mistake and boom, several hundred hours of progress gone and a little bit of your sanity

Deadass have corrupted a save 10 times

And it’s had 277 memory leaks

And has just refused to even work 19 times

[iron glen]

assassin's creed my beloved

[minor sleet]

Oh and the devs have released game breaking updates at least 20 times

Including breaking: all gases, jet engines, modular engines, buoyancy, and more

Oh and have intentionally removed some features including boilers having the ability to explode and gearboxes have a torque limit

Also Stormworks gives thermodynamics a fat fucking middle finger

Infinite power? Easy asf, just make sure you got a clutch that slips

[minor sleet]

You can shove 40c air into an engine and it’ll perform the same at 10c air

Aerodynamics? Ignore it, not a fucking thing, making something more aero makes the vehicle perform worse

Want any kind of fun? Just buy all 3 9.99USD dlc’s

[fallow yacht]

hallo kaz

[minor sleet]

Or buy 1 and have a friend buy the last 2

[fallow yacht]

what do y'all think?

[minor sleet]

Steelseries edging?

[upper wave]

I have finally moved away from Adobe

[livid fern]

Quick edging

[glacial dune]

hey guys i was planning to gift my friend a ps5 so should i gift him a Disc or digital ( idk what should i choose)

wrong chat my bad

[upper wave]

Does he own a PS4 with physical games?

[broken saffron]

wdym

[glacial dune]

nah

[broken saffron]

then u can go for digital honestly

but personally i prefer disc

[upper wave]

Than either would be a viable option, I would get the digital one or the physical but physical games are usually cheaper and own them forever (or until the disk breaks)

[steel umbra]

nothing special of a mousepad

[glacial dune]

i think i should get him a digital once

[thin oak]

I want to clean my pc case, I tried to clean it before but due to no air blower equipment it was all cloth and some dirt left inside
any equipment that could help me to clean my pc

[glacial dune]

inhale all dirt

[elder quarry]

Isopropyl alcohol with a cloth

[elder quarry]

This

[glacial dune]

deep breathing

[thin oak]

I was thinking of using a big balloon, fill that with air and use that air to clean the pc

[elder quarry]

That balloon needs to be very big then

You will need lots of air

And pressure

A bicycle wheel could work

[elder quarry]

But you’ll need many

[thin oak]

nah i went to yt and checked some videos

[brave brook]

still can't decide if i want to NASify 12 year old normal computer hardware or a 7 year old Mac Mini (damn, it has been 7 years since the 2018 mini launch)

[gleaming rose]

storm knocked out power :(

[elder quarry]

Computer ,

[elder quarry]

Oh god is 2018 7 years ago

[brave brook]

i mean i have a Z77 ITX board, i would add a mPCIe to M.2 key M adapter for boot drive, add an LSI card in IT mode for 8 extra drives, got an ITX NAS case. That would allow me to have 7x3.5" + 2x2.5" in addition to the NVMe boot drive.
Booting from NVMe would require me use an USB bootloader hack, and the NVMe drive would be limited to 500MB/s tops, but hey, still not that horrible, and only other possible use for mPCIe slot would be a 2.5 gigabit NIC.

also i still can't believe i dodged the "fake new" Exos scandal with my hard drive purchases

[mortal mantle]

how the fuck can I tell if a CPU is failing

(on Linux without root)

[random coyote]

4070 or 7800XT what you say guys?

[mortal mantle]

7800XT

[random coyote]

Is the gpu the black screen is still an issue on amd gpu card?

[mortal mantle]

I don't have any black screens so non issue

[real lantern]

hello everybody

i found a 1080 ti on aliexpress for 30$ i know it's a scam but it's aliexpress verified (which means i can refund it)

[mortal mantle]

likely isn't

[random coyote]

I see well which one is a good combo ryzen 7 9800x3D 7800XT or nvidia 4070

[real lantern]

i'm seeing people debate over if it's a scam or not on aliexpress discussions

[mortal mantle]

still 7800XT

[real lantern]

y'know i could always do with a little bit of experimentation

[brave brook]

there are tons of very weird lsitings lately on ali

[random coyote]

Soo meaning 7800XT OUTPERFORMS the 4070?

[dawn cedar]

Yep

[real lantern]

it's been like that the entire time, not just lately

[mortal mantle]

both are very good cards

[storm jasper]

Is the DEEPCOOL PL750D good?

[dawn cedar]

Sanctioned company,

[brave brook]

i haven't noticed as obvious cases tho before. Like this

[storm jasper]

Not in my country

[random coyote]

Both cards are good but??

[mortal mantle]

lol

[real lantern]

not bad, I might add this to my experimentation list

[brave brook]

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008469401562.html here you go if you want to get scammed LOL

[real lantern]

it's a 404

[frail delta]

remove the i in www

[storm jasper]

Is the thermaltake BX1 any good?

[brave brook]

fixed, sorry, it defaults to vietnam for me for some reason, so i delete the stuff from the link and i failed this time 😄

also when you click at the seller

[mortal mantle]

they got banned

[real lantern]

why did aliexpress remove refund certification on products!1!!!1111

[mortal mantle]

(I think)

[elfin night]

for games like elden ring, rainbow 6, would you recommend getting windows 11 22H2 or keep at windows 10?

i know windows 24H2 sucks so cant use that

[mortal mantle]

it doesn't?

[real lantern]

most shop######## stores are either scams or extremly lazy

[mortal mantle]

like I'm on it and have 0 issues

[real lantern]

it's pretty good (i'm on 22H2 btw)

[whole garden]

24H2 is fine

[teal moon]

late response but I found out the issue was the flash drive I installed it on lol

[elfin night]

i heard directx11 has issues when running

[real lantern]

nooo way LEBRON has MOBILE DRIVERS!?!?!?1

[mortal mantle]

it doesn't

[elfin night]

alright thanks ig

[real lantern]

https://tenor.com/view/lebron-james-tee-grizzley-first-day-out-edit-lebron-edit-gif-10876952049472718041

[brave brook]

got few stuff delivered from lazy ones, but hey, items were like half of the EU reseller price. For example this was like 12 euros a piece, so i got 3 from Ali for less than price of 2 in my country 😄

[mortal mantle]

and aliexpress is somehow good for memory cards and cables

[real lantern]

and storage if you use common sense

[brave brook]

solved an old Jetway mini PC extra SATA connectivity issue for me; Jetway mini PC had the headers, but cable was never sold anywhere for it

[mortal mantle]

isn't a memory card storage?

[real lantern]

i read it as memory only mb

[brave brook]

and weirdo adapters too. Like how about a 2.5 gigabit NIC for mini PCIe?

or mini PCIe to M.2 key M ? Sure, it is only PCIe 2.0 x1, so ~500MB/s, but it means i save a PCIe slot

[real lantern]

oh yeah actually old laptops used to have mini pcies

[brave brook]

upgrading Ivy Bridge/Haswell era stuff

[real lantern]

i speak before i think

[brave brook]

look at bottom left corner 😄

[mortal mantle]

or just mass produced open source stuff

[brave brook]

even Z97 era boards still had sometimes empty mPCIe for WiFi adapters

in bad location sometimes, for example here it is under the faster M.2 slot on a Z97 Extreme6, but oh well

[mortal mantle]

like the PSxMemCard Gen2 in this pic (based on 2 open source projects SD2PSX and sd2psXtd)

kinda interesting how the PS2 still gets new stuff

[rigid fjord]

ph-jst header then dude

[brave brook]

jetway literally didn't do any specification for that connector. Just "here is a SATA power header connector" 😄

[rigid fjord]

tbf mini pcie compatible for many things

[brave brook]

"there you go, deal with it" system 😄

[rigid fjord]

i stand by what i said and fuck you warship

[brave brook]

it was my router for a while, had 2x gigabit NIC

[mortal mantle]

gigabit is cool

[brave brook]

now my router is an UN100D. 2x2.5 gigabit

[rigid fjord]

when you have to gpu swap because one went and said i'mma have a fuckywucky time

[brave brook]

yeah. I just want to keep my main PCIe slot for HBA, and want to have my onboard SATA ports for storage too. Which is why i will pick up that mPCIe to M.2 key M adapter and use that for system (via USB bootloader hack which loads NVMe EFI driver)

[mortal mantle]

I just use my ISP router (speed in image)

[brave brook]

not as inbalanced as my server tho. 2950x with 128GB RAM and GTX960

[brave brook]

ISP router has next to zero configuration options, so i put my own router behind it to provide me with necessary services

[livid fern]

Bridge mode? Or just plugged in

[grim pasture]

Is a ryzen 5 8400f worth it if its 105 bucks?

[native karma]

i swear i was in homelab for a hot second

[brave brook]

nope, just plugged in. ISP does IPv6 DS-Lite, so there is nothing i can do. DS-Lite is a NAT already, so i just did another level of NAT and that gives me options like own DHCP etc

[livid fern]

Ahh i see

[rigid fjord]

not over a 7400f/7500f or 8700g at least

[grim pasture]

it is like 150 bucks

[whole garden]

Hi rauko

[rigid fjord]

sup

[brave brook]

options from ISP router for IPv4 is pretty much DHCP reservations and changing the IPv4 DHCP range. Not even setting own DHCP server is allowed

[native karma]

well you can't expect anything good for cheap

[whole garden]

How you doing

[rigid fjord]

i was hoping to not use my rx 590 and wait out to get an rx6600xt/6650xt/6700xt/6750xt tbh

[rigid fjord]

slightly miffed, you?

[livid fern]

Wow

[rigid fjord]

pretty normal for many isp routers tbh

[whole garden]

Doing good, why you miffed?

Also haven’t seen someone say that in a long time

[native karma]

serverposting

[sly epoch]

Guys I think Im obsessed looking at my pc that I built

[rigid fjord]

having to gpu swap

[brave brook]

i highly suspect they are just waiting to be bought out by someone. Liberty Global sold away most of their ISPs to others, so they are left with just little of what they used to have and UPC Slovakia was left to rot i would say :D. I mean they all Liberty Global was left with is Virgin Media O2 (50%), VodafoneZiggo (50%), Virgin Media Ireland, Telenet in Belgium... And UPC in Slovakia.

Unfortunately for Slovakia, none of the major players who were normally buying up the UPC ISPs in other countries weren't interested in the Slovakian market

[whole garden]

Did the 560 die? or you upgrading?

[brave brook]

i mean Vodafone for example had interest in Czechia & Hungary, cause they had mobile networks there. In Slovakia, they had nothing. For UPC Poland, they found someone who bought that company.

So i suspect they absolutely minimise any development for now. Will wait and see how it will pan out in next few years, worst case scenario i will change to better ISP (but worse TV service)

[livid fern]

Holyy

yeah i know 1% Abt networking xD

[brave brook]

UPC Austria was acquired by T-Mobile Austria on 31 July 2018 and fully integrated in Magenta Telekom in May 2019.[11]

In July 2019, Vodafone bought Liberty Global operations in Germany where operates Unitymedia, another Liberty Global subsidiary, Hungary, Romania and the Czech Republic.[12] On March 31, 2020 UPC Czech Republic merged with Vodafone Czech Republic, UPC Hungary merged with Vodafone Hungary and UPC Romania merged with Vodafone Romania.[13]

UPC Poland was sold to Polish cellular telecommunications provider Play (owned by Iliad Group) for US$1.8 billion. Deal was closed on April 1, 2022.

[grim pasture]

@rigid fjord You think this is smart?

I have ordered a case which I wanted because it was in sale and available (Phanteks xt pro ultra black)

It has 3x 140mm argb on the front and 1x 120 mm on the back (exhaust).

Do you think it's smart to add a 360 AIO to the top and 3x 120 mm on the bottom?

Because it's not a fish tank case and the fans on the bottom might not get enough air
