[plush wren]

u can get A1 here at 16 which is upto 125cc
and A at 18 which is 125cc+

[muted moon]

AM at 14 here (under 80cc) and A1 at 16 here up to 125cc too

[low sage]

This is pre wooden block, was it even worth it

[muted moon]

and A2 at 18 which is under 45kw iirc

[teal sphinx]

I mean you can go for B full here which cost a bit more. And that will be big bike

[plush wren]

here its called MOPED still AM tho at 14 but upto 50cc

[teal sphinx]

And yes that is manual not semi auto

Most just opt for the B which we learn in semi auto in smaller bike

[muted moon]

we pass it at school here

[plush wren]

wtf

[muted moon]

almost every french have it

[plush wren]

i think you only have to pass a theory exam here for moped tho

[muted moon]

yeah

in rural france they forced us to pass it

[teal sphinx]

But you get an automatic upgrade to B full after having your license for 10 years

[muted moon]

cuz no public transport

[plush wren]

lmao wtf

[plush wren]

that is fucking crazy

ebikes seem cool but i feel like the battery life is just ass

ebikes as in e dirt bikes

[muted moon]

well most of us still went to school by car without a license lmao

[teal sphinx]

Anyone have experience with semi automatic bike? I don’t think it’s that common outside of like South Asia tbhn

Not even in china.

[plush wren]

are you in like vietnam

[teal sphinx]

Malaysia

[plush wren]

oh

[plush wren]

peak country

[muted moon]

i had this absolute banger to go to school

[teal sphinx]

I mean nothing is stopping you for riding a manual bike as long as it’s under 250cc tbhn

And even those supposedly under 250cc bike exceed that. Some rider modify their bike

[random gyro]

Has anyone been to the Minecraft movie? I am scared

[high elm]

dont risk it bro its super scary

[random gyro]

I've seen the Instagram reels where they are yelling and throwing popcorn

And the comments say that every showing is exactly like that

[high elm]

prolly just in america

yeah

[teal sphinx]

Wait the Minecraft but irl?

The trailer looks so… weird…

[high elm]

eh my friend went apparently its pretty funny

[random gyro]

Yes but so many people are buying the tickets just to go quote jack black and scream and destroy the theater. So much it's prolly gonna be a second movie 😭😭😭

[odd marsh]

just turn your brain off and enjoy

Just have fun with it

If you treat it like a normal movie you will be sad

[random gyro]

Not the problem

[teal sphinx]

I really hope more manufacturers start to adapt 3d facial recognition again

[random gyro]

Read what else I said

[odd marsh]

That's what I am saying, scream yell during the movie, clap

[muted moon]

here its already on the national streaming service lmao

[odd marsh]

Go with the theater

[teal sphinx]

Currently only Apple, Huawei and Hornor are still using 3d face recognition

[random gyro]

Ight

[odd marsh]

I saw it yesterday, we didn't throw popcorn, but we did just clap and cheer at certain points in the movie

[teal sphinx]

And Huawei apparently is planning to ditch android core completely starting this year. Not sure how well this will go for them tbhn

[random gyro]

Chicken jockey 🗣️🗣️🗣️

[muted moon]

having it disabled >>

[odd marsh]

yeah exactly

[random gyro]

I hate face id

[teal sphinx]

It’s really convenient to use eWallet and stuff

[muted moon]

oh yeah i dont use apple pay

[random gyro]

Never knew how bad it was till I tried a iPhone.

[teal sphinx]

We use eWallet a lot here

[muted moon]

i dont trust apple pay lmao

[teal sphinx]

What?

It’s amazing

[random gyro]

Idk there's just something about the ultrasonic finger print sensor that just feels better then face unlock.

[teal sphinx]

Fingerprint scanner doesn’t work for me

[random gyro]

Yeah it's faster but a good quarter of the time it doesn't work

[teal sphinx]

I have hyperhidrosis

[muted moon]

which iphone you got ?

[teal sphinx]

Eh? Try setting it up again. Face ID never failed for me

You do need to be looking at the phone screen

[teal sphinx]

I mean… it’s a norm to use eWallet here

[muted moon]

because face id have a lower failrate than a fingerprint sensor since the iphone 12

[random gyro]

13 mini

[teal sphinx]

Though not really Apple Pay. TnG are quite common here

[muted moon]

refurb ?

[teal sphinx]

Some place don’t even accept cash. Though it’s not that common

[muted moon]

my gf had a 13 mini she never had any issue with face id

[teal sphinx]

I love Face ID

That’s it. I hate everything else about iPhone

[grizzled frost]

Face ID my beloved

[azure topaz]

explode

[muted moon]

we just use these plastic thingy here

[sly epoch]

Here we can combine the 2

[muted moon]

same here

[grizzled frost]

Most people still use cards, apple pay is common but not overly so (i work in a grocery store)

[teal sphinx]

Well, look. Not every place have this. It cost money to get a whole system that work with that

[muted moon]

i just dont trust it, as someone who work in finance and banking

[teal sphinx]

While using eWallet is cheap. Everyone have a phone. And they just need to print out the QR code

[sly epoch]

Here we still pay cash and a small amount of people pay cashless

[teal sphinx]

Qr code is way cheaper than a card reader and can be bought everywhere easily

Just print it out and show it to your customer

[sly epoch]

Here we can buy a card to link to our eWallet so that we can use it offline

[muted moon]

well you dont really need card reader anymore

[teal sphinx]

Well that’s jank and most cheap phone don’t support rfid

[sly epoch]

Wait what county are you from?

[teal sphinx]

Malaysia, not a first world country evidently

[sly epoch]

Oh

I thought Philippines

[grizzled frost]

tap to pay is ubiquitous in most first world countries

[muted moon]

i disabled tap to pay

[grizzled frost]

it's bloody lovely

[sly epoch]

Its very convenient yes

[grizzled frost]

It's exceedingly rare that i find a store that doesn't support tap to pay

[muted moon]

i pay with the chip the good old way

[teal sphinx]

This is just cheaper and easier to adopt for small businesses

[grizzled frost]

most small businesses support tap to pay here too

[muted moon]

in france all store support it since like 2008 ?

[teal sphinx]

Just have to print out qr code.

[grizzled frost]

Been the case here for a long time as well

[teal sphinx]

Most small businesses here don’t earn enough to justify that

[grizzled frost]

you can get a tap to pay scanner for as little as like 20usd here

[teal sphinx]

That’s why qr code revolutionized the online transaction here

[muted moon]

here the bank provide one to you if you need one

[grizzled frost]

Yeah i imagine that's pretty common here too, just not super familiar with that system

[teal sphinx]

It cost penny to print out a qr code

[grizzled frost]

Okay?

requires more effort, here you look at your phone, double click power button, and wave it over the little pad, boom paid for

takes a couple seconds, instead of having to pull out your phone and fiddle with the camera

[teal sphinx]

While I do agree with that. Again I have to emphasise we are a developing country

We do not have the luxury of a first world country

[grizzled frost]

fair enough, regional pricing is rough

[muted moon]

i mean only in asia

[random gyro]

Chat do I get it

[muted moon]

been to africa a lot of time and they all take tap to pay

[grizzled frost]

why wouldn't you?

if you don't, that kinda defeats the point of the dev beta

[teal sphinx]

I do have to assume there are place that do not tap to pay

[muted moon]

some place dont take visa infinite or amex yes

so you have to go to atm

[teal sphinx]

Because the cost to setup qr code is so low and easy even going to like local wet marketplace I am sure you can find qr code payment

[grizzled frost]

i wonder how long until the US goes completely cashless

It's already a minority of transactions

a vast minority

[teal sphinx]

And with Face ID you can do payment in less than 10 seconds

[muted moon]

well even with a visa infinite i avoid doing transaction by card anyways

i almost only use cash

[teal sphinx]

Most of my friend just go out with their phone

They don’t even bring cash anymore

[woven elk]

https://store.45homelab.com/configure/beerinator

[teal sphinx]

Like imagine this, not having to bring cash to market

[warm sage]

i think i need more RAM

btw this is with only browser open

[muted moon]

i cant wait for the new euro banknote

european culture design, with marie curie on the 20€ bank note

[teal sphinx]

Quite fast

[muted moon]

i still dont trust any contactless / digital payment system

paying with cash

and when i need to pay with my card, i have the contactless disabled, swipe disabled and need to enter the card with a 6 digit pin

[teal sphinx]

Paying with cash is not that fast tbhn.

Finding changes take times too

[muted moon]

never said i wanted it to be fast

[random gyro]

holy unc

[muted moon]

i just want it to be secure

[teal sphinx]

Most people wanted it to be fast

[teal sphinx]

Then you can get robbed

[muted moon]

same with a phone

[teal sphinx]

But they can’t access your eWallet

It require credential

[muted moon]

well, its stupid to rob someone who has a glock

[teal sphinx]

Unless they chop off your finger or kidnap you

Which frankly it did happen in china. But it was quite stupid and the guy threatened got caught easily cuz they can easily track online transaction

[muted moon]

well if i ever get robbed i dont think the guy will be intreasted by the cash lmao

he will take my job auth keys

thats why we are legally allowed to have pew pews

[teal sphinx]

Most robber here would absolutely take your cash

They commit crimes even for 20$

[muted moon]

and you wont go far with 2x 5€ bank note

its not even enough to afford a metro trip

[teal sphinx]

It happened before

For RM50

That’s like 10 buck

[muted moon]

well

i live in a civilized country

[teal sphinx]

It’s also a civilised country

[muted moon]

if they rob for 10€ dont think so

[teal sphinx]

It’s not like it happened everyday

[muted moon]

here if you only have 10€ its literally the robber who wil give you money

[mellow belfry]

Hello, i need opinions on a question of mine

[teal sphinx]

Eh

[teal sphinx]

We were talking about security. Which I argue eWallet have better security than cash

[mellow belfry]

What's better, a S24U or an iPhone 15, raw hardware then the 24 wins by a mile but then you think about iOS and how society seed iPhones better and i have been banging my head against a wall trying to decide

[teal sphinx]

Well not in all cases but generally I do think that’s true

[muted moon]

i think its safer to only have a bit of cash

than always having your phone etc

[teal sphinx]

Also eWallet is not linked to your bank directly. So you do need to transfer it to your eWallet first.

So you’re saying you don’t always have your phone with you?

[muted moon]

no ?

[teal sphinx]

Well… I didn’t expect that

Is that a norm over there?

[muted moon]

well depends on the area

but here it’s common

[teal sphinx]

Most people with a phone here carry it everywhere

[muted moon]

i’m not even allowed to have my personal phone at work actually

[mellow belfry]

So you are saying people don't carry their intelligent apparatus everywhere?

[teal sphinx]

Apparently not for them ig

Even our driving license is on a phone here

Soooo like. You do need your phone

[mellow belfry]

Amazing, I can't tell if its a more or less advanced civilization than ours

Some would say more

[mellow belfry]

Anyways if anyone else wants to voice their opinion on this

Would be helpful

[teal sphinx]

What’s your current phone?

[muted moon]

well when i go outside with my gf i only have my id card, 10€ in cash and my car cardkey

[mellow belfry]

Xiaomi mi 10, thing ran out of updates

It's an incredible phone, but its 5 years old so

[muted moon]

i kept my old phone for 8 years 🥲

[teal sphinx]

I mean phone is quite convenient and you can do a lot of stuff with it. For navigation, browse the social media, talk to someone, call the emergency services, take pictures

And frankly I do think you are an exception not the norm

[muted moon]

why would i want to do all of that lmao ?

like when i go outside it’s to enjoy being outside

[teal sphinx]

Man still living in the 90s

[muted moon]

not to doomscroll on a bench outside

[teal sphinx]

Ehh. You don’t bring your phone to a supermarket?

[muted moon]

no ?

[teal sphinx]

[muted moon]

i leave it in the car when i don’t forget it at home

[teal sphinx]

Yeah I don’t think that’s a norm

[mellow belfry]

I would but it's time for a change, tech has advanced and im stuck with a phone with a stinky battery

[teal sphinx]

People would break into your car if you leave it in your car here lol

Where you live

[mellow belfry]

If the battery life indicator was a thing on this phone it would be below 50 for sure

[muted moon]

europe

[teal sphinx]

I mean that’s a man that do not bring his phone outdoors

[mellow belfry]

Betting on greece

[teal sphinx]

Country?

[muted moon]

france

[mellow belfry]

Oh

[muted moon]

living in france but work in germany tho

[mellow belfry]

I would just go to Germany bro

[teal sphinx]

Your girlfriend also do not bring your phone outdoors?

[muted moon]

she do but don’t use it

[teal sphinx]

Well

I never said you have to use it. But when you have to use it you can use it

[muted moon]

i never feel the need to use it

[teal sphinx]

It’s not like I go to the supermarket to use my phone

[mellow belfry]

What phone do you have

[muted moon]

me ?

[mellow belfry]

Yes

[muted moon]

iphone 16 pro

[mellow belfry]

Damn and you say you don't use it too much

[muted moon]

i think i use it less than 2hrs per day

[mellow belfry]

God feeds the people who aren't hungry, but seriously good phone for so little use, although its a good thing, the less time the better

[teal sphinx]

Again, in my opinion not bringing your phone outdoor. You are the exception not the norm

I would assume most people bring their phone everywhere

[whole garden]

[teal sphinx]

Heck you need your phone to key in attendance in uni here

[mellow belfry]

If i leave my phone at home it's because it has no battery yeah

[muted moon]

i mean i wanted to get the 16e

but for 20€ extra i had the 16 pro

[mellow belfry]

Wow

How even, idk if its a steal or the e was just godly overpriced

[muted moon]

the 16 pro was in sales that’s why

[mellow belfry]

We don't have 400 buck off sales here sadly

Darn you Spanish tech markets

[muted moon]

it’s a carrier deal actually

but it’s still worth it when you see how cheap internet is in france

i pay 60€ for 10gbps at home and my phone plan + my gf phone plan

[random gyro]

twitch gets shittier and shittier ever day bro

[teal sphinx]

Why

[mellow belfry]

Ok now i gotta add a new contender to the phone options, the pixel 9 pro

[teal sphinx]

Any reason you would want an iPhone?

[tame ridge]

I need help installing my motherboard drivers

[mellow belfry]

Society's opinion plus i wanna try out iOS, its supposedly better but i got no experience

[tame ridge]

Everytime I download and extract the files, they all form in a application called ASUS Startip and when trying to download doesn’t do anything

[teal sphinx]

It’s not better imo

[mellow belfry]

I have never tried it so right now im relying in other's opinions and some say its better some worse

[teal sphinx]

Especially if you like to tinker with your phone

[random gyro]

what are u talking about

[teal sphinx]

I straight up prefer android phone notification system

[whole garden]

What phone do you use

[mellow belfry]

Yeah the main thing is that the stupid society that we live in thinks better of an iphone SE 3 than a pixel 9 pro or a S24u

So really I can't decide

[teal sphinx]

I mean like having different browser app. Side loading app, third party launcher customising and other stuff

[long orchid]

so my mobo vga light is on and i have

• reseated the gpu
• used different gpu
• used different pcie slot
• swap the ram
• did a bios update
  and it's still not fixed and im convinced the mobo is broken (its a b450 used for around 6-7 years )

[random gyro]

u can side load, have diff browsers, u have hella customization, and ios launcher is so good u dont need a third party

[teal sphinx]

I mean the thing I find is. Android are not afraid to copy better design

[teal sphinx]

It’s very hard to side load

[random gyro]

its not lol

[teal sphinx]

Browser are all WebKit which doesn’t like to work for a lot of website

No browser like kiwi browser with actual good adblocking

[random gyro]

do u really think the only browser is safari

[teal sphinx]

Even chrome or Firefox is reskinned safari

[random gyro]

brave browser

[teal sphinx]

Look it up, Apple mandated all the browser to be WebKit based

[random gyro]

brave browser has good adblocking and tons of other browsers are on the app store

[teal sphinx]

Still safari skin and their ad blocking suck compared to what unlock origin have to offer

[random gyro]

Nah just used

[teal sphinx]

They’re all WebKit based

I found that a lot of ads get through with brave browser on iOS

[random gyro]

The only browser I believe in is chatgpt

[teal sphinx]

On android it’s better. But still not as good as unlock origin

[mellow belfry]

The thing is the pixel 9 pro would be a bump in price with less storage

[random gyro]

stop going on goon websites cause every normal website blocks the ads perfectly

[teal sphinx]

Not goon website

[random gyro]

Goon website

[teal sphinx]

WebKit is also vey finicky with cloud flare ddos protection

[rapid quarry]

Firefox with enhanced tracking protection on blocks every reg ad when I browse

[teal sphinx]

It straight up doesn’t want to work with the captcha

[random gyro]

ye i use firefox

Chatgpt gives me no ads

also after ios 17 something browsers arent required to use webkit anymore

[teal sphinx]

I’ve seen plenty of Adblock detection in brave

Browse article also get detected

[mellow belfry]

So guys S24u or iPhone 15

[random gyro]

s24u

[frail topaz]

s24u

[rapid quarry]

The official Chrome app on IOS is literal garbage

[random gyro]

s24u clears iphone 15

[teal sphinx]

They’re all WebKit reskin

[sinful cobalt]

objectively s24u is way better

[random gyro]

Why everyone going for the s24 ultra? It. Had a shit ton of screen problems

[mellow belfry]

I know, but i want to fit into society

[random gyro]

dude webkit isnt even needed after ios 17.3 or 4 lmao

[mellow belfry]

Society mandates iPhone

[random gyro]

we need more colors 🥀

[sinful cobalt]

any1 using iphone by choice is a normie

[random gyro]

okay so buy an iphone and stop asking the same question

[mellow belfry]

We need cheap

[random gyro]

S24 ultra got the green line of death a LOT and the matte coating may have been good until you put some sunscreen on it

[sinful cobalt]

actually true

[random gyro]

um i use it by choice after 3 android phones and i love it

[rapid quarry]

Most people are going to put a case on it anyways.

[random gyro]

ur right

[random gyro]

Get the iPhone 15

[teal sphinx]

Again. We have choices in android. You are not locked in. My android phone launcher looks like this

[rapid quarry]

Most sane* people

[teal sphinx]

I prefer it like this

[random gyro]

that shit looks terrible dude

[mellow belfry]

I can't i think i have an asking the same question disease or something

[random gyro]

Bro is that like a 100 dollar phone

[teal sphinx]

I can have it like this. I am not forced to use what Apple think it’s best for me

[sinful cobalt]

wtf is this shit

[mellow belfry]

Honestly man what

[random gyro]

yeah ur layout is just you bro that shit looks terrible

[teal sphinx]

I like it. Not saying it’s for everyone. But you can have choice is what I am saying

Well this launcher has millions of 5 stars review

[random gyro]

Also Samsung phones are bloated to hell. Get the iPhone 15

[teal sphinx]

It’s frankly great. I love it, I know it is not for everyone but clearly a lot of people have the same opinion as me

[random gyro]

Many choices

Pixel and Nothing are the only android phones I recommend

[teal sphinx]

Can you have it like mine?

[random gyro]

Samsung and OnePlus are ass

[mellow belfry]

Really?

[random gyro]

why would i want it like yours, shits ass lol

🤣

[teal sphinx]

Meh

[random gyro]

Yes you have to adb the shit out of the Samsung to get rid of the apps that are locked.

[mellow belfry]

Hoping that the nothing 3 wipes the whole phone industry's ass ngl

[teal sphinx]

What I am saying is you have choice in android phone

In iOS your locked in what Apple thinks is the best for you

You also cannot side load app easily

[random gyro]

im aware genius i just changed from an s22u

[random gyro]

Not really much anymore.

[random gyro]

u can lol

[teal sphinx]

Still nope

Even in EU Apple made it as much as a pain as possible to sideload

Outside of eu you still have to use work around like sidestore or alt store

[random gyro]

If I recall Google is starting to make it a pain to side load

[teal sphinx]

Still never as close to the level than Apple

[random gyro]

me when altstore

[random gyro]

It's getting there

[random gyro]

u only care about sideloading for piracy lets keep it 100 here

[teal sphinx]

Then you have the limitation of having only multiple app unless you pay Apple for developer option

[random gyro]

am i lying

[teal sphinx]

Not really i sideload to get older version of app too

[random gyro]

stop meat munching android, apple isnt bad

[teal sphinx]

I don’t think you can find anything pirated on my android phone maybe RVX that’s it

YouTube revanced

[mellow belfry]

Well they do not sell bad tech definitely not

[teal sphinx]

I also dislike Apple for their anti repair tactics

[jade flicker]

I mean some people bought those to flex 💀

[teal sphinx]

Some open source app you have to side load

Or like discontinued app

[mellow belfry]

No spotify 🦜?

[teal sphinx]

No I don’t use Spotify

[mellow belfry]

Wow

[teal sphinx]

Choice too limited

[mellow belfry]

What

[teal sphinx]

I listen to Chinese song too

[mellow belfry]

Oh i guess then

All the music i listen to is on spotify so no problem for me

Except one leaked song that got taken down and is now greyed out in the middle of my playlist 😢

[teal sphinx]

That’s why I said if you like choices then android phone is better

I can customise it in almost all aspect to my liking

[random gyro]

Pretty ahh phone

[random gyro]

I can customize my phone too man

[teal sphinx]

Very limited compared to what android can achieve

[mellow belfry]

Bro tbf you brought the worst to the table

I like the xiaomi high ends

[random gyro]

Sure wtv u say

[random gyro]

I have an s22u as well

[mellow belfry]

Especially those ultras with the circle man

[mellow cairn]

all phones are shit

[random gyro]

Okay unc

[mellow cairn]

anyone fanboying any phone is an idiot

[teal sphinx]

I am sure some people do not care but you’re in a tech channel

[mellow belfry]

Return to telegraph

[random gyro]

Hardwarebob older than my dad 😭😭😭

[mellow belfry]

This is true

[mellow cairn]

no, it's a matter of perspective.

[frigid blade]

There’s many ways to get Apple dev certs for cheap

[mellow belfry]

Which dad

[arctic tapir]

Would these be safe to use? never heard of the company

[mellow belfry]

Sorry, joke was too close

[random gyro]

I’m normal I have 1 dad buddy

[teal sphinx]

Like my mum and dad my siblings. The fuck they care about customisation. As long as it work. They think the way I can customise my phone is amazing but they can’t be bothered to do it to their phone

[mellow belfry]

It's like when you see a yo mamma joke, you have to take it

[mellow cairn]

plenty of people have more than one dad

My son has two

[teal sphinx]

How about android phone where I can just change a setting and I can sideload whatever I want free of charge

[whole garden]

Barely

[random gyro]

Insane glaze

[frigid blade]

You can sideload free of charge, you just have to redo it once a week or something like that

[teal sphinx]

With limitation of only 3 apps

[random gyro]

All android glazers use A series phones it’s insane

[teal sphinx]

How about not having this limitation and not having to use this workaround which require you to refresh it every week

[random gyro]

When ur apk stops working u have to update it anyways lol, i dont get this argument

[mellow belfry]

Personally id combine iOS smoothness and looks with android's freedom

And iOS just has some features that muah

[teal sphinx]

It’s different

[random gyro]

It’s really not

[random gyro]

I like androids file manager that’s about it

[teal sphinx]

The alt store or sidestore thingy on iPhone. You need to refresh your app every single week for it to not expire. And once it expire you risk losing some data

[mellow belfry]

Haven't tried iOS so no idea

[frigid blade]

Yah, I prefer the hassle free way of paying $20 for an apple dev cert that gets renewed forever

[teal sphinx]

You cannot use the app anymore if you don’t refresh it

[random gyro]

U can just refresh it any time u want lol

[teal sphinx]

Yeah if I didn’t have TrollStore paying Apple dev cert is probably easier and reliable

[random gyro]

@teal sphinx have u ever owned an iPhone

[mellow belfry]

What if yall pay me 20 bucks

[teal sphinx]

I am using an iPhone right now

[frigid blade]

It is, but getting it officially is expensive, that’s all that sucks, gotta go 3rd party for cheaper

[mellow belfry]

Which

[plush wren]

doesnt sideloading cost

[teal sphinx]

I use both just cuz I prefer android in every single aspect other than face Is

[plush wren]

https://tenor.com/view/dog-sleep-dog-sleeping-w-goofy-sleeping-sound-gif-5498863985254423453

[teal sphinx]

Xr

[random gyro]

Not normally unless u pay for dev cert

[mellow belfry]

I never understood the deal with face id is it any better

[plush wren]

whats the difference

[mellow belfry]

I love my fingerprint scanner i wish iPhones had it

[teal sphinx]

I have hyperhidrosis

[random gyro]

Yeah it’s instant on iPhone cause it doesn’t js use the camera

[plush wren]

shits crazy

[teal sphinx]

Finger print doesn’t work for me

[random gyro]

Dev cert is infinite sideloads and no refreshes

[teal sphinx]

I have hyperhidrosis(excessive sweating)

[plush wren]

i did go from a71 to 15 pro but still

[plush wren]

well thats weird "refreshes" wtf is their plan here

[teal sphinx]

I am someone who like to customise my phone a lot

[plush wren]

[teal sphinx]

That’s my point. If you’re like me, then iPhone is no go

[mellow belfry]

Sadge

[plush wren]

imo this is good enough for me

[random gyro]

Lol

[mellow belfry]

What does it use? Lidar? Sound?

[teal sphinx]

Oh wait not just Face ID I like about iPhone

[random gyro]

Sound for Face ID are u fucking stupid

[frigid blade]

Apple doesn’t want people installed 3rd party apps, so you need to reinstall them once a week, something like that, unless you pay for their developer certificate

[mellow belfry]

Stupid yes, dumb no

[teal sphinx]

Camera image on other app other than the stock camera is also great

Like taking picture in WhatsApp or telegram

[plush wren]

thats dumb

[teal sphinx]

They are clear. Unlike on most android phone

Apple also do not have a back button

[plush wren]

my snapchat camera quality is straight ass

[teal sphinx]

It’s up to the app developer to design it

[plush wren]

just swipe left to right

[mellow belfry]

Isnt it a left swipe

[teal sphinx]

And sometimes they make really questionable choice on how to go back

[teal sphinx]

Doesn’t work for all app

[plush wren]

does for like 90%

[mellow belfry]

I use the swipe thing on my phone i prefer it over the buttons

[teal sphinx]

That’s why I say they makes really questionable choice sometimes

[frosty prism]

are my temps fine? i5 14600kf and a 5070

[frigid blade]

They want all apps to go through their App Store to maintain their quality and security standards, it’s pretty easy to install a malicious app on Android by accident

[mellow belfry]

Takes less space too

[teal sphinx]

Still, having a fucking back button that works 99% of the times is better imo

[plush wren]

yes but how would making you have to redownload it every week make it more secure, sounds just like its more non secure as they can release some update that is malicious

[teal sphinx]

I use that on android too

[plush wren]

doesnt bother me so

[placid holly]

can like… pc parts go through xray machines? I just got some and need to flight back and i dunno if itll all work or not, im probably stupid

[plush wren]

why not

[teal sphinx]

But it trigger an actual universal back button which work for 99% of apps

[frigid blade]

It’s to stop you from doing it…, if you get annoyed enough you’ll stop trying to install 3rd party apps lol. If you know what you’re doing they’ll allow you to do it for a price

[mellow belfry]

Afaik you can get almost anything in your non cabin luggage

[teal sphinx]

It doesn’t bother me when it does work until you find a developer who doesn’t do it the way other developer do it

[plush wren]

lmao id rather keep redownloading it than pay to be able to download apps

[frigid blade]

It’s all about money and controlling using experience

[mellow belfry]

Liquids and allat

[teal sphinx]

Then you’re there trying to figure out how to go back

[plush wren]

[frigid blade]

Most apps and websites have back buttons

[plush wren]

https://tenor.com/view/android-ios-phone-boot-animation-gif-21858795

[teal sphinx]

They can put it on top left top right bottom left bottom right or you have to scroll back to the top of the page to go back

[mellow belfry]

What does this mean

[teal sphinx]

Instead of a universal back which work for all apps

[plush wren]

clunky

[teal sphinx]

Some back button is so tiny I can’t see

Or it’s like black on grey background and I will be there looking for the damn back button

[plush wren]

vro is bothered about a back button

stop using shit sites and apps

[frigid blade]

Safari is simple

[plush wren]

the back button is right there on safari

[mellow belfry]

Isn't safari like some prehistoric shit

[plush wren]

❓

[mellow belfry]

I will never use anything other than google, steal my data if you want, its more comfortable for me

[random gyro]

Firefox

[frigid blade]

What do you think safari uses as its search engine…

[mellow belfry]

Idk i always thought of it as something like edge or explorer, you use it to install google

[plush wren]

so many buttons on specific browser apps just let me search 💔

[mellow belfry]

When i had my macbook

[frigid blade]

Anyway, I don’t use chrome on Apple OS devices since safari has the same exact things

[plush wren]

thats cray

[teal sphinx]

Do me a favour and look up what’s my browser

[mellow belfry]

I would prefer dying over using any other browser

[teal sphinx]

It will show you WebKit

[plush wren]

😭

[frigid blade]

Chrome is ugly on iOS

[random gyro]

Bro I’m aware most browsers are WebKit, however it’s not required anymore u stupid bitch

[plush wren]

thats what i thought too until i switched to firefox and realized it doesnt fucking matter

[mellow belfry]

Steal one from school :politetrollface:

[plush wren]

i jist dont want to relogin on everything to switch

[teal sphinx]

It’s not required but Apple again made it very inconvenient for any other browser to develop

[plush wren]

dont have them at school

[mellow belfry]

Ugh

[teal sphinx]

Our lovely Apple

[random gyro]

I don’t care

[mellow belfry]

Too bad

[plush wren]

[mellow belfry]

They would be an ass either way

[teal sphinx]

dude its a browser u watch anime and search random shit on it who cares

[mellow belfry]

You forgot gooning, very important

so if i boight a used laptop from usa and it was shipped by plane I'd have to get the battery shipped by cargo or whatever the sea option is

Alt+f4 is better

[plush wren]

well i use ctrl tab to shuffle between tabs

[frigid blade]

Do I go for the cheaper but less known fiber provider or do I go with more expensive ATT?

[plush wren]

more expensive

actually idk about either so

probably both are ass

[random gyro]

fiber isnt even available near me man

[mellow belfry]

fiber is gonna become a thing here in maybe 2040 if we are ambitious

[frigid blade]

You checked ATT? It was the only one for me

[random gyro]

yes

[plush wren]

[frigid blade]

Xfinity needs to hurry up building their fiber infra, I’d use them if they had it here

lol, US futures market crash is bringing down every other market too

[arctic tapir]

Should I get these metallic silver cable extensions to match the GPU and stuff for my build?

[plush wren]

looks ass imo

[frigid blade]

I guess it depends on if you care enough on aesthetics enough to pay more

[plush wren]

[mellow belfry]

Buy whitey ones

[frigid blade]

I plan on shoving the new build in a corner in the basement so I won’t be caring about how it looks

[arctic tapir]

Of this build is truly on aesthetics too lol

[proper gull]

3rd world country

[frigid blade]

Majority of the US doesn’t have fiber somehow

[arctic tapir]

Rebuilding another pc to look like this, but crystal ram and fans to match the GPU

[proper gull]

Because they took billions in grants for it then did nothing

[frigid blade]

It’s like a quarter of connections tho, not too bad

[proper gull]

It's 2025, it should be damn near 100%

[frigid blade]

After looking it up, apparently over 50% of households have access, just don’t use it

[frigid blade]

https://tenor.com/view/donald-trump-billions-money-cash-plenty-gif-10135114

$145/month for 2Gbps speeds up and down fiber, worth it?

blud got the GDDR6 4070

uhh

[distant frigate]

Here’s the IXP’s in the USA

[sinful cobalt]

its like 3% slower than the 6X 4070

but its fine

[tepid gazelle]

i bought it from a sketchy guy

but the serials match, doesnt run hot, doesnt say fake in cpu z so i think im good

[sinful cobalt]

go do a synthetic benchmark

[mellow cairn]

Every map of the US is a population distribution map

[distant frigate]

lol. You can see that the dense cities have the most IXP’s

Like Seattle, San Francisco, NYC, Dallas

[gleaming timber]

good deal?

[regal junco]

Anyone know what is causing this error?

[torn bluff]

WTF happen 😭 😭

[tepid gazelle]

Here’s the difference with my 3060 ti

[empty quartz]

What cooler

[regal junco]

Corsair h150i lcd xt

[sinful cobalt]

???????????

oh

[tepid gazelle]

It runs good

[sinful cobalt]

yea its that much 90 vs 130

[tepid gazelle]

So there’s no way it’s fake then right

[empty quartz]

Run with a preset

[tepid gazelle]

I’m just very skeptical because the seller was sketchy and had no receipts 😅

[tepid gazelle]

Wym?

[empty quartz]

Use gpu-z

[empty quartz]

Like high/ultra preset

@tepid gazelle But show a screenshot of gpu z, that doesnt seem right

[regal junco]

I’m worried it might be a pump failure since I double checked all the connections very thoroughly and everything was correct

[empty quartz]

Nvm

I was wrong, thats just a normal 4070

[tepid gazelle]

Let’s gooo

[odd marsh]

Oh lame GDDR6 version

[sinful cobalt]

downgraded technically

4070D

[empty quartz]

Nope

[sinful cobalt]

u cannot convince me otherwise its a 4070D since its GDDR6 and not the normal GDDR6X

its nvidia shenanigans

[empty quartz]

4090d and 4090 use the same vram

And less cores for the d version

[sinful cobalt]

ok buddy but Im not directly comparing the situation to a 4090 and 4090d

i expressed that I consider this 4070 version to be a 4070d

[empty quartz]

Its not a 4070d

[sinful cobalt]

dont hit me up with ur 4090 and 5090s with D whatever bs ur not convincing me otherwise

[empty quartz]

It would have less cuda cores

[sinful cobalt]

its nvidia bullshit

[odd marsh]

5090D is the same performance as a 5090 and I’m pretty sure 5090D holds the 3Dmark records

It just has AI limitations

[sinful cobalt]

ai detected

https://youtu.be/-qbylbEek-M?si=1FX39zzCfV3RjndJ

[odd marsh]

Ok thanks

[rapid quarry]

Strong evidence. More investigation is required though

[sinful cobalt]

didnt mr huang say AI 200 times during his ces presentation

multi AI generation

infinite fps glitch ❌
infinite fps replication ✅

[rapid quarry]

How is that compared to the word "the?"

[cedar hollow]

[sinful cobalt]

do not compare the goat to something as puny as AI

[empty quartz]

@sinful cobalt 1fps difference at 4k, 3fps difference at 1440p, and 5fps difference at 1080p, therefore; its not a 4070d

[rapid quarry]

Weird Al does not deserve the slander 😭

[sinful cobalt]

its still a scam since u still need to lookout for 6 and 6X

therefore ur not convincing me otherwise unless u wanna say 4070nonX or 4070DDR6 or wtv

and using GDDR6 to nego can be a weapon

[empty quartz]

So what you’re telling me, is a 3% perf loss at 1080p & 1440p, and a 2% loss at 4k makes the 4070 gddr6 a scam?

It had a price drop

[carmine pike]

guys

real talk here

[empty quartz]

The 4070 super replaced it for that original price tag

[carmine pike]

ive recently got a job at "sales" so possibly very much money coming my way, just need to get it for real (im at experience time rn, ends may 11)

do i upgrade my cpu to a x3d or a better gpu

also am5 cpu*

[clear canyon]

what is ur current specs

[carmine pike]

ryzen 5 5600 and a rx 6600

16gb ram

[clear canyon]

whats ur buget

[carmine pike]

around 700usd (4000brl, my currency)

[clear canyon]

well, with ur specs, its hard bc a platform upgrade to a 7600 would take ur enture budget

what is your PSU

[carmine pike]

also yeah psu, imma get a 750w or 850w

xpg core reactor, there are some in brazil i think

[clear canyon]

I would do a platform upgrade first so you can get a better base to upgrade from

but goin x3d with ur budget prob wont happen

[carmine pike]

yeah its kinda on the higher side i figured

[clear canyon]

its not cheap

[carmine pike]

but will a "budget" am5 differ much from like the budget x3d am5?

[clear canyon]

there is no "budget" x3d chip

[carmine pike]

5800xd?

[clear canyon]

that is not an am5 cpu

[carmine pike]

oh

[clear canyon]

thats am4

ryzen 7000 and up is am5

[empty quartz]

[carmine pike]

ok ok

[empty quartz]

Im surprised people dont know this

[clear canyon]

it can take a sec to understand if ur new, thats how it was for me lmao

[high elm]

i dont expect my grandma whos looking to buy a pc to know this

Thats different

Im talking about “predo”

Just didnt wanna single predo out

[high elm]

predo

[carmine pike]

you can say it

[high elm]

of all names “predo”

[carmine pike]

its... a nickname

im not a criminal

[high elm]

so youre “predo mountain”

gotcha

[carmine pike]

change one letter of my name, and in japanese its rock, but im tall, so mountain

anyways, ryzen 5 7600 its ok? or should i go a little higher?

[high elm]

yeah its fine

good upgrade path too

• included stock cooler

mobos r just expensive here

[empty quartz]

Z790 + ddr4 = shit

[high elm]

ya in hindsight i shouldve just went with a maximus apx

[empty quartz]

Yeah

[high elm]

or an apex encore

maybe next gen

[empty quartz]

My board would’ve been $560 cad, if it didnt get it on sale

[high elm]

[limber nacelle]

mobos r just expensive here

[empty quartz]

X99 referenced :3

[limber nacelle]

singapore moment

[sinful cobalt]

yes gotta chase max fps numbers

and the price drop was nonexistent for my market

[high elm]

ya i think its quite normal to spend usd $499 on a mobo here

[sinful cobalt]

did that include with 2 vacations to asus taiwan?

[high elm]

lmao

[plain cypress]

For what class of board

[limber nacelle]

also i hate the way you gotta find deals, i helped someone from singapore once and i think i went through like, 10 flyers

comparing between

[empty quartz]

@high elm your z790 is $575 cad here

[limber nacelle]

god awful

[high elm]

flagship chipset

[high elm]

😭 pricing is trash here lol

[carmine pike]

alrighty, im gonna see about the case later

ignore prices

[empty quartz]

I have no idea what asus was thinking

[high elm]

theyre all $20 apart bcuz its not the store that sets the price its the distributor

they charge what they feel like charging

[high elm]

nah its the local distributor

[limber nacelle]

yes but that's why i had to go through so many to see what was the cheapest place 💀

[high elm]

they buy it from the board partners at MSRP then sell for 20% more

[limber nacelle]

and it's like. scanned flyers iirc

so i couldn't even CTRL+F to find shit

[high elm]

yeah lmao its old school AF

[empty quartz]

Asus is selling the board here for $575 cad, im not converting your price’s

[plain cypress]

For what class of flagship chipset

[high elm]

cad is super close to SGD

[limber nacelle]

after that day I vowed to never help another singaporean with a pc build lol

[high elm]

like Z890/X870E/X299

[limber nacelle]

so much work

[sinful cobalt]

Ur mobo go taiwan asus twice both nvr jio u walao eh

@high elm

[plain cypress]

Shush now x299 was HEDT

usually people just buy from whatever SI here

[high elm]

ya its kinda meh ngl

[limber nacelle]

kinda -> is

[high elm]

i bought it cuz i wanted a DDR4 Z790

[empty quartz]

Why

[sinful cobalt]

i wouldnt be surprised if they realised an astral mobo since now thats their flagship

[plain cypress]

Uhhh they could

[sinful cobalt]

?????

[high elm]

ddr5 was like SGD$300 at the time

[plain cypress]

Although they may want to keep astral and matrix for their Nvidia products

the maximus extreme is $1599 💀

[sinful cobalt]

if that thing doesnt boost the 14900KS under liquid nitrogen to 10ghz its a skem

[limber nacelle]

[azure topaz]

sorted by sold listings

[azure topaz]

thats what an informed person would say

[gleaming rose]

i mean honestly it's personal preference. i prefer oleds, it's just a matter of whether the difference is worth $250 to you

[azure topaz]

im at like 200 clicks on the listing in the first couple of days i think itll sell

[gleaming rose]

i wouldn't be unhappy either way for $250

[eager pond]

ahhh okay okay. I heard there are some qc issues, have you heard of any ?

[limber nacelle]

oh bro is on that hustle

[graceful meadow]

[azure topaz]

[gleaming rose]

[azure topaz]

[eager pond]

[azure topaz]

[azure topaz]

[gleaming rose]

ebay has good buyer protection

[eager pond]

[gleaming rose]

[gleaming rose]

I'd say wait and see

[azure topaz]

[gleaming rose]

[azure topaz]

@azure topaz technically speaking to get the equivalent of a 4090ti, all you’d need is an rtx 6000 ada core and a 3090ti pcb

[torn bluff]

should i buy macbook with low storage
m2/16gb ram/256gb 13 cycles $680

ill be using it for mostly school/work and some light editing but would a external drive be fine

[empty quartz]

@south arrow

[empty quartz]

Do you need a laptop?

[solar geode]

[torn bluff]

[empty quartz]

Shhhh

[solar geode]

anyways had a quick question. anyone skilled with jellyfin and/or embedded subtitles?

gotten into a bit of a twist with loading them in the web player

[empty quartz]

@solar geode wormm has been here since jan 2022

[empty quartz]

Alr, because if not, i was gonna say m4 mac mini

[torn bluff]

lol the mac mini is def a beast

[empty quartz]

@torn bluff the 256 should be fine, but videos will use up alot of storage, so external ssd/external hdd

[cunning rock]

that thing is trash for gaming

[empty quartz]

Not everyone is a gamer
