[charred knot]

no its usb, it detects thhe output

[odd linden]

i had to rma a laptop once because it wasnt turning on properly

i took a video of me opening it and everything inside was perfect

when i got a reply back from the repair store, it said it was liquid damage, and showed the tiniest bit of "liquid" which wasnt there in my video i took at home

i called bs, but lucky the manager of the retailer store responsible for the warranty gave it a second chance, called up lenovo themselves, and had it repaired, it was a motherboard faulty issue, no liquid damage lol

[unborn condor]

could this be the reason for all my woes?

[odd linden]

idek what htat is

[clever sinew]

if he starts with bullshit ill take to another store for diagnostic and ask whats the issue and make them document it

[left dove]

thats not the source of your issues but it should be on

[odd linden]

whats ptm?

[odd linden]

lol yea

[trim gyro]

ptm 7950 is a thermal pad

[odd linden]

oh i see, so how do thermal pads fry a laptop?

[unborn condor]

well i disabled virtualization and so far no crashes

[clever sinew]

https://youtu.be/2BhKx0iQ4K8?si=4LEwSGrhfNmN6Tze

[trim gyro]

basically a sheet version of thermal paste

[odd linden]

ah

ohh those ones

[left dove]

didn't you just reinstall windows

[charred knot]

i am pretty sure?? but the device doesnt pop up in device manager

[trim gyro]

it's usually not as effective as regular thermal paste, but ptm 7950 happens to perform very very well and is perfect for laptop and gpu applications

[left dove]

ok so heres the thing

stop trying to "fix" windows after reinstalling it because all you're doing is causing more headache

[unborn condor]

automod got me lol but yes i did reinstall it 5 times

[unborn condor]

that was a while back. my current install was on a blank C:\ drive

[clever sinew]

im hella sure he messed up something while replacing usb

now is tryna blame the ptm

[odd linden]

probably lol

[unborn condor]

i wish there was a way to just completely remove anything associated with hypervisor including the fucking hypervisor itself. i don't have a use for it. i don't need to use it. there's no reason for me to have it. it's just caused me nothing but issues.

[south arrow]

Snagged a another T700 4tb no rgrtsss

Somone take my cc

[odd linden]

either way it was fried under his care

[charred knot]

fixed it
had to delete wht whhoel drivevr

[left dove]

yeah heres the thing, it doesn't just cause bsods if you're not using it

[exotic swan]

[odd linden]

whether it was the ptm or not it was under his responsibility

[unborn condor]

then why are the BSoDs happening? i had FOUR hypervisor bsods today.

[unborn condor]

and like i said since disabling virtualization i haven't had a crash yet

[clever sinew]

the ptm wasnt under his responsability thats why i think hes saying it was the ptm

but aint no fucking way ptm fries a laptop

[odd linden]

the laptop was though yea? he was in charge of applying the ptm no?

[south arrow]

[odd linden]

idk call his bs and see what happens 😭

and update us if you do i wanna see the outcome

[clever sinew]

i sent it for repair for usb and he said he doesnt put ptm but i asked him to put and the responsability of the ptm was under me

[frigid blade]

what sata ssd do you guys recommend?

[odd linden]

oh i see

[clever sinew]

now im calling bs cuz he did sum wrong and is tryna send the fault to ptm

[left dove]

show him google results showing that ptm isn't electrically conductive, so there's no way for the ptm to "fry" something

[clever sinew]

just so he doesnt come at a loss

[frigid blade]

cheaper side but still good quality

[clever sinew]

alredy said so

[odd linden]

whats the reply?

[frigid blade]

i have a laptop that runs insanely slow on the 2.5 sata hdd and could probably use an ssd upgrade

[clever sinew]

if he starts with bullshit ima take it to another store do diagnostic documented

[clever sinew]

hes gonna perform "deeper diagnosis on a closed day" to see what really is the issue

[odd linden]

i see

[odd linden]

did you send him the ptm to use?

[clever sinew]

yes

[odd linden]

mm

[clever sinew]

after i showed the ptm does not conduct electricity hes response wass

"Yeah, it shouldnt conduct eletricity"

[steel umbra]

youtube now wants me to login in order to verify/prove that i’m not a bot??

[odd linden]

is it fully fried orrr?

[left dove]

good tbh, too many bots uploading constant ai generated bullshit

[clever sinew]

LMAOAOAOAOAOAO

what he said is that theres no fucking sign of life

[steel umbra]

you gotta be logged in to comment or create a video

[odd linden]

so basically he screwed up your laptop

[left dove]

Oh yeah

I forgor that bit

[clever sinew]

i sent it fully working i expect it back fully working

[odd linden]

yea good

[clever sinew]

its a kinda not very but kinda old laptop

but still expect it to work fine

i need it for school

[odd linden]

well yea you sent a working laptop and you get a fried one back what in the bs

[steel umbra]

youtube has been dunking all the shorts stuff on me replacing actual videos with tiktok and now this…

btw you can still watch shorts even signed out

[odd linden]

isnt that normal

[clever sinew]

the thing is

[odd linden]

pretty sure you could always do this

[clever sinew]

last week he did fix that laptop but another issue

windows upd fucked the bios somehow and hp support wasnt any help and he repogramed the bios

[steel umbra]

apparently they restricted that you can’t no longer watch normal videos without being signed in some regions/places

[odd linden]

well its likely he did something accidentally that broke your laptop and hes being legit in trying to diagnose the problem

[odd linden]

oh, i guess its not a thing in nz

didnt know that was a thing but thats stupid

why need an account just to watch videos

[clever sinew]

ima wait for a answear im not gon make his life hell over a stupid rushed diagnostic

[steel umbra]

so they can harvest your data

[odd linden]

https://tenor.com/view/roblox-mighty-omega-gif-22253898

[odd linden]

yea

just kinda stupid he blamed it on ptm though

[clever sinew]

it do be

i woke up with a message like that

mad funny tbh

[steel umbra]

fuck you google, alphabet inc

[hollow canyon]

hi

can someone help me with a pc build

[clever sinew]

how so

a list?

[hollow canyon]

i want to build the best performing gaming pc i can with $1500 while i already have the case, aio, and 3 fans

[gleaming rose]

idk if I asked this here, but if migration was a simple process would y'all be willing to switch to a secure, encrypted, privacy respecting Google services alternative

(we wouldn't even collect your name, all data is decrypted client side)

[clever sinew]

r7 7800x3d and 5070 maybe

im not to aware on new pc parts

[formal sonnet]

I'd only consider it if it worked seamlessly across all my devices and offered the same or better services.

[hollow canyon]

let me try that

[clever sinew]

btw im looking at my country prices which are kinda shit u maybe can find better specs for lower pric

[hollow canyon]

ill try to

[gleaming rose]

the entire concept is built around a passkey

if your devices support passkeys it'll work seamlessly

[hollow canyon]

do u think this is decent?

[formal sonnet]

And what happens when (not if, because it will happen one day) I lose access to all devices with passkeys registered to unlock access to my data stored on the service? How do I access / recover the data I'm legally entitled to?

[odd linden]

i will tell you this rn, that psu is loud af

[clever sinew]

very solid build

[odd linden]

pos psu drowns out my entire pc during idle

[clever sinew]

should be more then capable of running all games at 1440p

[gleaming rose]

you sacrifice it in the name of security 🙏🏻
I think that recovery codes are a possibility

I'm still figuring out the client sided encryption part

[hollow canyon]

lmaoo, thank u

[gleaming rose]

(the current setup needs an extension that doesn't work on iOS browsers currently)

[formal sonnet]

Recovery codes (or another means) are a must for me to use the service. Make it as difficult as it needs / should be to recover, but I must be able to setup ways to regain access to my data or I won't store it in the service.

[odd linden]

the psu works fine other wise but apparently the bearings on the fans are not good

and theres no zero fan mode on that psu

so its kinda loud

[trim gyro]

how will you monetize it

[steel umbra]

hi kirashi

[hollow canyon]

thank you, ill look at some other options

[trim gyro]

for a long time I thought it was kiraishi

[odd linden]

i bought it too because it was cheap and seemed to be good, i didnt really research it

[hollow canyon]

yeah someone told me the Montech century II is good

[left dove]

@unborn condor I'm disappointed you DMed me without asking

[unborn condor]

oh my bad

it wouldn't let me reply to the message specifically

[left dove]

weird

[unborn condor]

dunno why

sorry about that

[left dove]

but to answer your question

Honestly I have no clue- after this many windows reinstalls with specifically hypervisor related issues leads me to think it's some weird bios issue or a hardware thing

[odd linden]

bro wtf i didnt even press shift

[left dove]

what, the realtek thing? that's your LAN controller

[odd linden]

oh

i see ty

[unborn condor]

it is on the latest update for bios, i really hope it's not the CPU, i'm super tight for money and it's been hard given that this is affecting my work

[left dove]

try going into the bios and disabling hyper-v, don't turn off anything else in windows

[unborn condor]

i'm hoping that virtualization being disabled is what will finally stop it

[unborn condor]

is disabling virtualization the same thing as disabling hyper-v?

[odd linden]

im praying for you dude

[left dove]

what do you mean by "disabling virtualization"

[unborn condor]

in my bios, SVM mode, "enables or disables virtualization"

[left dove]

Oh you're amd

[unborn condor]

yeah

[clever sinew]

whats the issue ur having?

[left dove]

yeah that's the same thing

[unborn condor]

constant hypervisor_issue BSoDs

playing cyberpunk 2077 on max right now with no issues, so... hopefully that does something

[clever sinew]

try disabling svm and hyperv ye

[odd linden]

what specs youu got again?

[unborn condor]

and hyper-v? doesn't disabling svm also disable hyper-v?

[barren breach]

So like, I can very much appreciate the effort and skill it takes to build a PC like this, but am I the only one that thinks overall it looks like garbage? In terms of taste not quality

[clever sinew]

dont think so

[left dove]

hyper-v is only on intel platforms iirc

[clever sinew]

go on windows and search features

[left dove]

Oh no I'm actually silly

[unborn condor]

there's hypervisor platform but that's unchecked

[left dove]

yeah you don't have the hypervisor platform installed

idk you should be fine if you disabled all the virtualization shit

[odd linden]

youre not alone
i dont like strimmer cables
and i dont like bottom fans

[unborn condor]

i disabled svm ye

[left dove]

really fkn weird that you keep having those issues though

[unborn condor]

really hope it's not my cpu

[odd linden]

also aint that the o11 vision?

[unborn condor]

i mean it's running cyberpunk 2077 on max settings just fine??? like wtf?

[odd linden]

top glass is a no for me too

fish tank i like but when you have the top as glass thats too much

[solid crown]

it owuld look way worse without bottom fans

[barren breach]

Yeah, Im not even a big fan of fish tank cases

[barren breach]

I dont think so

[odd linden]

idk decorate the bottom with something instead

[solid crown]

there would be a huge gap on the bottom without the fans

this pc even has a rad down there, without rad/fans it would be a MASSIVE gap

[odd linden]

i like fish tank cases, just not dual chamber ones

[odd linden]

yea i just dont like hte o11 vision in general

[barren breach]

Ok maybe I can agree with that

[odd linden]

or any of the o11 cases, i dont like dual chambers

[left dove]

Give me nondescript black boxes free of glass and LED lights

[solid crown]

lianli mini v2 looks great to me though

[odd linden]

they look fat on the side, and i dont like bottom fans, having fans there looks weird, having no fans, as you said burnt, looks evne more weird

so for me and my own personal opinion, i dont like them lol

[barren breach]

I like rgb n stuff but I like it to be more understated than that

[barren breach]

Thats way too much imo

[barren breach]

I hate this too lol

[left dove]

god its so tacky

[odd linden]

tbh angled bottom fans look better than the flat ones

[solid crown]

at least its more compact than the other ones

$100 with 5 preinstalled fans no argb

[barren breach]

I think i did my own pc perfect, I just dont like that my gpu has rgb tbh

[solid crown]

thats pretty good pricing

[odd linden]

the only time i like bottom fans is when its like this

where its sunken into the case

[solid crown]

yeah they do

[left dove]

bottom text is better than bottom fans

[odd linden]

so you cant see it on the side

[barren breach]

It better but still not loving it

[odd linden]

having exposed square naked fans is not nice looking

[barren breach]

I just cant get behind the look of bottom fans

[odd linden]

i do actually like this

[barren breach]

It looks like you took a big box fan that youd have in your room, and tipped it over lmao

[odd linden]

i just dont like when theyre just "placed" on the bottom, doesnt look nice

[solid crown]

too bad the evolv x2 is pretty bad to build in

[odd linden]

i dont like how the rad makes you put the aio tubes towards the back

apparently you can flip it around but its annoying to work that way

[solid crown]

and it cant fit the liquid freezer 3 without jank mods

[odd linden]

yea

idk i use phanteks fans and aio anyways in my phanteks case

i use an nv5, just without hte bottom fan installed

[solid crown]

I wonder what yall would think about the HAVN HS 420

[left dove]

MEH

[odd linden]

whats it look like with the fans installed?

[barren breach]

Strong dislike on the bottom fan mount lol

[odd linden]

this looks fine to me

[barren breach]

Yeah not for me

[solid crown]

its a massive case too

[odd linden]

as long as the fans match the size of the fan mount then its fine

[solid crown]

cool design though

[odd linden]

this just looks ugly

evne in my case, having a fan at the bottom just sit there on flat ground looking exposed and out of place

so i never bought anotehr fan for my own build

[solid crown]

these types of cases are very popular in the flipping scene and I think it looks very bad without the bottom fans

[barren breach]

I like that, just not the other side lol

[odd linden]

dual chamber cases

[barren breach]

I think that whole case looks like garbage, way too wide

[solid crown]

nahhh bro the nv5 looks unfinished without that fan

[barren breach]

Literal cube

[odd linden]

it lookse worse with the fan

[solid crown]

I mean this one specifically though

it used to be like $30 on aliexpress

[odd linden]

id rather leave it empty, if you want 3d print a platform and put some decoration or something

i left mine empty

[solid crown]

and it only fits slim matx boards

otherwise the board overhangs and blocks the fans

[grizzled frost]

there was some dude in here a couple days ago with a similar case that used a standard M-ATX board so part of the board was just floating infront of the fans

[solid crown]

yep 💀

[grizzled frost]

(he also didn’t see the problem with it)

[odd linden]

hm?

[solid crown]

I meannn practically it works it just looks bad

[odd linden]

ohjhhhh i didnt even know slim matx boards was a thing

[odd linden]

was that dihh 😭

[grizzled frost]

if you press on that side of the board it could short something or damage the board

[grizzled frost]

honestly don’t remember in the slightest

[odd linden]

the guy who bought a second hand refurbished hdd because he ran out of money

[grizzled frost]

as in a refurb drive that someone else bought, used, then resold?

[odd linden]

as in nvm

[grizzled frost]

huh

[odd linden]

nevermind im not even sure if i know what im saying

[odd linden]

@solid crown it does look incomplete, but i would rather not have a fan

unless somehow i build a mount for it so it looks like it fits properly

which i do not know how to do or have the resources to do

[solid crown]

argb upgrade kit might make it fit better

[grizzled frost]

do you have reverse swept fans?

[odd linden]

swept? the intakes are reverse yea

[grizzled frost]

Ah, just curious

[grizzled frost]

i’ve seen some people do all exhaust for aesthetics before and got scared

[odd linden]

uhhh they dont exist here in nz, unless you buy them for like over priced on ebay which idk if its even legit

• the rbg kit has issues, the top strip doesnt light up properly

[odd linden]

yea nah those people probably dont know

[solid crown]

yeah it is annoying that it dims

[odd linden]

my first case i got was the phanteks xt view, the defualt installed fans were all set to exhaust for aewsthetics

so i had to manually flip them around, which made them look ugly af, and the cables were showing on the front side

[grizzled frost]

one more thing to add to the list of why not to buy a prebuilt

[odd linden]

its not a prebuilt, its just a case with fans

included

it was likeee 82 usd too

[grizzled frost]

cheap case

[odd linden]

for a fish tank + 3 argb fans included

[grizzled frost]

people spend more than that on just fans

[odd linden]

and its got an rgb strip too

[grizzled frost]

looking at you lian li fans

[odd linden]

this is you have to flip the side exhaust fans around so theyre intakes

[odd linden]

no "premium" features like cable grommets but again, its 82 usd for a good looking case with 3 argb fans + argb strip

and build quality is decent

[solid crown]

wait til you hear about the new thermalright case

[odd linden]

and then i went and bought an nv5 case, glacier one aio, 3 pack of reverse d30 fans and an extra d30 exhaust fan purely for aesthetics 😭

[odd linden]

uh no idea which one that is

[solid crown]

costs $45-65

[barren breach]

This case isnt bad

I don’t mind that

[solid crown]

$45 version comes with no displays

[odd linden]

yea i know, it was my first case

[barren breach]

This looks awful with the displays

[solid crown]

I think it looks cool

[left dove]

"We need to send a technician to investigate" yeah xfinity you really should do that

[solid crown]

and cheap is cheap

[left dove]

Paying for 2 gig and people using carrier pigeons are getting more reliable data transfer than me

[odd linden]

the phanteks xt pro ultra also exist, 75 usd about

its a more normal case with front intake with mesh filter and side glass panel, 4 argb fans included with the ultra, or if you get the normal phanteks xt pro non ultra, its just the case without the fans

[gleaming rose]

you pay for the storage you get & all features are included

[odd linden]

looks like this

[solid crown]

you can get the thermalright case with no displays for $45

[odd linden]

for 75 aint bad either, no cable grommets or anything either though

[odd linden]

yeaa i know i mean thats new,

[odd linden]

case itself doesnt look too bad

except this

i dont like it when the bottom fan gets cut off

[odd linden]

same issue with this case though

[solid crown]

yeah thats a common thing with 3 fan cases

[odd linden]

but the front fans arent on display for internals, more for externals

[odd linden]

thats why i like the nv5

[solid crown]

could def get away with 2 on the intake though

[barren breach]

Its what I have

[odd linden]

i like the uh angled slope ontop of the psu shroud, rather than the usual straight cut off on a lot of other 3 full fan on display cases

[odd linden]

mine

jsut the basic looking phanteks build lol

random amazon gpu support i stole from some dudes nv5 build on reddit

[hollow canyon]

can someone help me with buying new pc parts?

[odd linden]

i dont actually keep my rgb like this btw

[barren breach]

Go to the build a PC

[barren breach]

I hope not lol

[odd linden]

camera doesnt pick it up properly but the rgb effect i got is this

[hollow canyon]

no one answers 💔

[odd linden]

its just purple with pink flowing through clock wise

[barren breach]

I have mine so it changes, just slowly

[odd linden]

my keyboard pc and mouse are all black with purple / pink rgb colour scheme

[barren breach]

Wow that vid made it sound like a jet lmao

[odd linden]

that is not slow 😭

[barren breach]

Its not super slow

But its not a dance party

[odd linden]

btw i have an matx board in that atx case

[barren breach]

The camera also makes it looks faster than it is, if you see it in person it doesnt look so in your face

[odd linden]

just letting youu guys know lol

[odd linden]

yea, camera is just not great for picking up my rgb either

it looks crap on camera, better in person

but cant see the matx boards long cables because i got the gpu support there 😁

[barren breach]

I also shouldnt say I have it set lmao. I just plugged it all into the rgb headers and liked the way it was

I never changed anything about it, I dont have any software for rgb on my pc

[odd linden]

i use signalrgb

[odd linden]

my case does have its own rgb controller, with buttons on the case for rgb effect and colour cycles

but ive always wanted the effect i have right now

[barren breach]

Kinda confused rn

1440p high on cyberpunk

Yesterday was getting 110fps ish, changed nothing, today getting 300fps

[odd linden]

how tf you getting 300 fps high on cyberpunk

what you running ay? 720p?

what gpu again?

[barren breach]

5070ti, i5 14600k

1440p

Its not 300, more like 280, but still confused

[odd linden]

oh

[barren breach]

Oh I know now lmao

For some reason the game turned on my frame gen

[odd linden]

well idk max graphics, rt off, native 1440p i get 80-90 fps ok my 4070 super

[odd linden]

youre getting like 30 fps more than me 😔

[barren breach]

I had my frame gen off last night

[odd linden]

also apparently 5070 super will have 18 gb vram

[barren breach]

For some reason its on tonight

[barren breach]

I thought it said 24gb

[odd linden]

i havent run into any vram issues on my 12 gb 4070 super except for minecraft lmao

[odd linden]

oh i resd 18

[barren breach]

I have 16gb rn, I wouldn’t see a point to make it 18

[odd linden]

yea

[barren breach]

Oh wait you said super

[odd linden]

i got 12, i dont see the point.. yet..

[barren breach]

Not ti super

[odd linden]

yea

[barren breach]

I think the ti super is supposed to have 24gb

[odd linden]

maybe

[barren breach]

I THINK, I dont actually know, I thought I saw it somewhere

[odd linden]

i play with ray trace pn ultra with all the ai bs on cyberpunk btw

dlss frame gen

likeee only 130 fps ish

nice

[sand berry]

nice

[odd linden]

hand it over

ill take good care of it

promise

that works too

[barren breach]

Thats what im working with

[odd linden]

no dlss or frame gen?

[barren breach]

Correct

[sand berry]

I'm still using a FX 8300 and a rx 550 lmao

[odd linden]

and youre stoll getting 110 fps? damn wtf

[barren breach]

Correct

[odd linden]

i need to use dlss and frame gen to get where youre at or else ill have like no fps

[barren breach]

Im re starting the game rn

[odd linden]

are you sure you get 110 fps? 😭

[barren breach]

It turned on frame gen for some reason and dlss, i turned them both off and apparently need to restart for those to take effect

[odd linden]

yea its annoying af

[barren breach]

Thats what I was getting last night

With x4 frame gen i was getting 280-300 rn

[odd linden]

oh right forgot about mfg

im just a peasant with regular frame gen

[barren breach]

Idk if it makes a difference, but I also have the 5070ti vanguard

With the “fancy” cooler

Vapor chamber or whatever

[odd linden]

uh thats just for cooling

i mean my gpu barely gets hot enough that at max temp it doesnt go over 50% fan speed

[sinful cobalt]

mfg is essentially trans am from gundam 00

basically x3 performance

[odd linden]

restarted yet?

[barren breach]

I mean yeah but cooler = more fps

Not by a ton

But more lol

[odd linden]

i think if youre over clocking or if your gpu actually gets hot enough

like would it make a difference going from lets say 55 celsius to 60 celsius?

[barren breach]

Yeah now with dlss off entirely, no frame gen, getting 60 lol

In the city in a mission

[odd linden]

thats more like it

i get like idk 40?

[barren breach]

Frame gen was 100% off but dlss may have been on

[odd linden]

yea

[barren breach]

Last night

[odd linden]

i use both dlss and frame gen, i dont see why not if its there

[solid crown]

I always use dlss but frame generation is a case by case basis

[barren breach]

Frame gen im not a huge fan of with the weird stuff it makes happen

[odd linden]

i dont notice enough issues ect to turn it off

[odd linden]

i notice some occasionally, but not anymore tbh on cybeprunk

[barren breach]

Is there a specific way I should have this set up?

[odd linden]

cyberpunk is the only game i use frame gen on though

[sinful cobalt]

im using mfg x4 to 180 fps in 1440p ultra RT CBP2077

[odd linden]

its the only game laggy enough to need frame gen that i play lol

[solid crown]

FG was a must for stalker 2 launch but every other game I usually just lower the settings

[teal sphinx]

I am so confused why enabling video hardware acceleration causes the discord sharescreen to lag horribly

[solid crown]

FG feels very heavy in most games

[sinful cobalt]

its like 300w average

[teal sphinx]

I have an amd gpu. it was always fine when i was using intel igpu

[barren breach]

I was getting better than that?

[odd linden]

are you gaming?

[barren breach]

With mfg x 4

[sinful cobalt]

i capped it

[barren breach]

Ah ok

[odd linden]

hardware accel uses your gpu, if you screenshare a game, pc puts gsme in priority leaving any other hardware accel suffocating dying and 6 feet under

[sinful cobalt]

MFG x4 I can reach 400+ if normal 600w default

but then I power limited it to 75%/450w n UV’d

[sand berry]

CPU Ryzen 5 5600 ~4.000 TRY
GPU RX 580 ~ 6.400 TRY
Motherboard MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI / ASRock B550M-HDV ~3.200 TRY

10/?

[teal sphinx]

yeah, figured. but anyway to solve?

[barren breach]

Dlss and mfg x4 I was getting 280-300 1440p

[odd linden]

when you turn off hardware accel it offloads the work to the cpu, and your cpu usually isnt bottle necking, it usually has the headroom for the extra tasks

[odd linden]

not really

[sinful cobalt]

i forgot if i had psycho or just ultra rt

[teal sphinx]

i think my cpu are at like 50% when gaming lol

[odd linden]

i had to turn off hardware accel on my browser which is what started the issue with my browser duplicating itself

[teal sphinx]

Ryzen 5 3600 and RX580

[odd linden]

yea thats like nothing

[sand berry]

Turkish economy dawg

[odd linden]

its got head room to take on the extra tasks

[valid kite]

5070 ti or 9070 xt

[barren breach]

I had it on psycho

[teal sphinx]

i just got a rx580

[odd linden]

if you have multiple monitors and you want to waych youtube while gaming, you badically have to turn off hardware accel to watch youtube

[barren breach]

9070xt lol

[teal sphinx]

💀 just got it for 20$

[sinful cobalt]

idk what psycho even changes compared to ultra

[sand berry]

22.999,00 TRY

i aint buying that

[sinful cobalt]

I just cranked everything except path tracing

[odd linden]

true lol

[sand berry]

Turkish lira

[barren breach]

I got my evga gtx 1080ti ftw3 for $50 like 3 months ago

Usd

[sand berry]

565,47 USD

[trim gyro]

prefer western digital sn580
psu model unknown?

[sinful cobalt]

My next card I wanna get me either an EVGA or a Yeston Sakura flower

[teal sphinx]

why the format so weird. why got dot

[sand berry]

dunno

[odd linden]

what browser you use?

[left dove]

comma=~=dot in some countries

[teal sphinx]

wat

[sand berry]

price

That's the price

[teal sphinx]

4000 turkish lira?!

[sand berry]

yes

[teal sphinx]

WHAT THE FUCK

[trim gyro]

a CPU is usually cheaper than the GPU

[sinful cobalt]

I’d be down to get a yeston sakura flower wedding 4070 Super/TiS or an EVGA 3060 12gb/3090 tbh

[teal sphinx]

i can easily get 5600 for less than 50$

no sweat, no hunting around

[trim gyro]

maybe not 20, but that is true, it seems very expensive

[teal sphinx]

Rx580?

WHAT THE FUCK

[sand berry]

fr

[teal sphinx]

why would you paid 160 dollar for rx580 in 2025

[odd linden]

aint tha the price of 1080s?

[left dove]

Different markets exist in other countries lmao

[odd linden]

this

not every country has the same amount of stock level

[left dove]

ok but in their country?

[odd linden]

you can get a refurbished 3080 for 450 usd on new egg

that aint happening in nz

[teal sphinx]

damn it's actually so expensive

[odd linden]

but peopel keep telling me to do that anyways im like bruh, im not in the us

you guys wanna see something on new egg for nz

the two brand new 4070 supers lol

1 nzd is about .60 usd btw

yea abuot

1k - 1.1k ish

4070 super msrp is 600

though that also includes shipping in the prices i believe

but either way youre still paying for shipping so that doesnt matter its still paying 1k for a 4070 super form new egg

unless you want the refurbished ones

[odd linden]

how much are new 9060 xts in us?

[teal sphinx]

AMD RX 6600XT might be a better choice than rx580

[trim gyro]

$380

[teal sphinx]

@sand berry

[sand berry]

a 3060 costs 22999 TRY

[odd linden]

the cheapest one at the top is 463 usd btw

[teal sphinx]

i searched within turkey...

[odd linden]

my 4070 super was 1.3k nzd

so about 780 usd but thats after tax

[teal sphinx]

got scammed

wait what is TL, your currency is not TRY?

[sand berry]

dude that's crazy

[sand berry]

We mostly call it TL

[empty quartz]

Meow?

[sand berry]

sometimes YTL, TRY or TL

[teal sphinx]

the price they put 6700, the description says it's 12000
eh

[sand berry]

no

"Sıfırı 12000TL"

Sıfır means 0

like

[teal sphinx]

like if you buy it brand new?

[sand berry]

yep

[south arrow]

Mowss

[teal sphinx]

why not this?

[sand berry]

I dont live in Istanbul

[south arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/cole-and-marmalade-meow-cat-black-cat-gif-8161362

[teal sphinx]

cannot postage?

that you'll have to ask the seller

if they're willing to ship

[sand berry]

hmm

[teal sphinx]

but do come with inherent risk. try to ask for more proof. do COD (but unlikely you're able to test anwyay)

or if your place got other marketplace with buyer protection try to use those

[odd linden]

i just realsied are there no vc channels for this discord lol

[sand berry]

wait, what?

[odd linden]

am i blind?

[sand berry]

nope

[teal sphinx]

bro u still awake?

aren't you the guy that can't find the cpu?

[odd linden]

huhh?

oh yea lmao thats me

yes i am still awake i drank a coffee

[teal sphinx]

why

[odd linden]

if i slept it would mess me up

[odd linden]

what browser do you use?

[teal sphinx]

Microsoft edge

[odd linden]

oh okay

[teal sphinx]

i've been using it since their switch to chromium

i use it on my android phone now too

[odd linden]

you got hardware acceleration turned off on it?

[teal sphinx]

no

[odd linden]

oh okay

[sand berry]

back

[teal sphinx]

when am i getting my wages

;
hopefully tomorrow. or they're paying me late by law

[sand berry]

I'm currently using ProtonVPN and IT SUCKS

[sand berry]

chromium is basically the base of every browser out there rn

except firefox

[odd linden]

and they all duplciate tabs for no reason except edge

[teal sphinx]

I do think firefox should exist

[odd linden]

[teal sphinx]

but uh, i don't want to be the sucker that uses it 😂

[left dove]

..what?

[odd linden]

theres nothing wrong with using firefox lol

[teal sphinx]

it's slow

[left dove]

wrong ping

[teal sphinx]

i've used it

[left dove]

what

[sand berry]

Which OS do you guys use?

[odd linden]

a lot of chromium browsers (chrome, opera, brave) has this duplication glitch in alt tab on windows 11

[left dove]

I have never encountered that

[odd linden]

you need hardware acceleration off, and if you full screen any video on them, and alt tab, often they will duplcaite themselves

[odd linden]

i mean i can reproduce it pretty reliably

you wanna see lol

[left dove]

Not really

[odd linden]

oh okay

[left dove]

I'd rather go to bed

SPEAKING OF

[odd linden]

i see how it is

[left dove]

honk shoo honk shoo

[odd linden]

for those who want to see wtf ive been yapping about duplicating tabs

see im not schizo

[limber ermine]

Settings>System>Multitasking. Then in the Alt + Tab section, I choose the option "Open windows only"

[odd linden]

doesnt work

[sand berry]

never expected that

[odd linden]

trust me ive tried everything there is

ive tried so much to the point i swapped to edge

thats how you know ive really tried

[limber ermine]

edge is good

[odd linden]

i know

i do like it actually yea

people can talk about chromium, talk about data, spying on me and what not, idc i used chrome before anyways and only swapped because of hte bug

[fickle ivy]

and im moving to an actual fucking editing software because clipchamp is a piece of shit that lags if you have mroe than 5 minutes of footage or 10 clips

[odd linden]

i just want a good user browser that functions and has the user experience i want, which edge basically feels like a reskin of chrome

[limber ermine]

lol

i don't use actualy editing software. older version capcut

[odd linden]

davinci resolve is free yes

[limber ermine]

Now that i got a dgpu i think i can prob run davinci now

[sand berry]

use davinci resolve

trust me

its WAY better than climpchamp

[odd linden]

aalso idk where open windows only is, i swear i saw it before but i cant find it anyways, was gonna go prove it doesnt owrk lol

[sand berry]

@fickle ivy

[odd linden]

the only fix is restarting windows explorere in task manager, which i guess just ressets alt tab along weith other windows stuff

but thats a bandaid not af ix and its annoying to do constnatly

or turn on hardware acceleration, but i have it off for a reason

[odd linden]

idk how to edit videos for crap, but i use davinci when clipchamp cant do stuff properly

[limber ermine]

capcut is really easy

it's like same difficulty as clipchamp but more features

[odd linden]

hmm i see

[limpid ivy]

noice davinci is great to use, pretty intuative to use.

[odd linden]

pretty intuative 😭

[limpid ivy]

Albeit I have the fully paid studio version, both free and paid are basically the same.

[odd linden]

i have skill issues

[fickle ivy]

is it easy to learn?

[limpid ivy]

More streamlined then premire

[odd linden]

i think so if you put the time into it, i just havent

and there are plenty of guides out there which are like 3 minutes long showing you how to do whatever you need to do

[limpid ivy]

and this is coming from me who actually does edits for clients so I use 3 editors lol.

[odd linden]

i ujst watch one of those whenver idk hwo to do something

[limpid ivy]

ah yea they help for beginners.

[sand berry]

capcut just wants money, not users

davinci is free

[vapid ibex]

De ja vu?

[odd linden]

eh?

[elder mural]

Yo can a Wifi 7 PCIe card work on a motherboard that has the wifi6 PCIE card (if you buy the wifi version) because currently I have no wifi card Ans need to purchase one

[vapid ibex]

Guys someone tell me this is normal I slept around 12-1 am and woke up 5 am and feels like I woke up 5 pm

I don't think that's okay

[vapid ibex]

Saying you also talked about it yesterday lol maybe it has to do with the browser's hotkeys

[trim gyro]

biphasic sleep is normal

[odd linden]

idk man, i normally sleep 7-9 am and wake up in the after noon like 3 - 4 pm

but today i stayed up because i had to do stuff early morning, its 5 pm rn

[odd linden]

and uh yea idk i hate that issue and people sometimes dont believe me / have no idea what im talking about beacuse they havent encountered it

[vapid ibex]

This never ever happened to me I can't remember anytime where it felt like that my brain feels wronged

[odd linden]

so i took a video for proof to show people 😭

[sand berry]

btw i found one thats 7600 TL (TRY)

[vapid ibex]

Lol DW a lot of people are mean for no reason

[charred kiln]

okay you're gonna make fun of me but please be helpful if you know what im talking about.

I have a bambu X1 Carbon and I am trying to use orca slicer on developer mode, everything is fine till I press print and then I get this, anyone knows a fix?

[odd linden]

theyre not mean they just have no idea what im talking about

[sand berry]

maybe ask GPT?

sorry idk about printers

[charred kiln]

I prefer asking real people cause I know GPT will give me a shit answer based on past experience with it lol

[sand berry]

true lol

[vapid ibex]

True but there are also mean people lol it's life

[lavish needle]

Would you rather have very tiny fingers or no left foot

[odd linden]

yea

[sand berry]

how tiny are we talking about?

[vapid ibex]

No no no no tiny fingers my left foot is my strong foot

[odd linden]

probably no left foot

[lavish needle]

Your fingers would be 0.1x of their current size

[odd linden]

yea definitely no left foot

[sand berry]

goddamn

[odd linden]

i mean have you tried walking without moving your left foot, not too hard, just get a fake foot adn youre set

[vapid ibex]

Lmao didn't think of it but isn't that against the rules

Like you could also get prosthetic fingers

[odd linden]

wasnt specified

prosthetic fingers aint work as well as real fingers

i mean neither does a prosthetic left food but fingers are far more useful than a left foot

[lavish needle]

You would just have no foot, your entire leg would still be there

[odd linden]

id still choose the left foot gone even with no prostetics, losing the use of fingers is way more devistating

[vapid ibex]

It feels weird because I always relied on my left foot for football and just more balance to do stuff with one foot

[odd linden]

i mean i guess, butt think about day to day life, how much you use your fingers

youi cant hold stuff if youre fingers are 0.1x the size

at that point its not "tiny fingers" its "no fingers at all"

[sand berry]

since Discord is temporarily banned in Türkiye (Turkey)
I need a VPN (Currently Using protonvpn)
Any VPN you guys can recommend?

[odd linden]

wait what what happened?

[vapid ibex]

Fair enough why not remove one hand then instead of make the fingers smaller

[sand berry]

Long story

[lavish needle]

Mullvad

[sand berry]

thx

[sand berry]

prob. no left foot

[odd linden]

i just think hands and fingers are more important than one foot

even both foot gone, you can have a wheel chair, or those people who walk on two prosthetis

[vapid ibex]

I have a strong urge to say put your foot in your mouth

[vapid ibex]

This is a metaphor btw

[sand berry]

i need my fingers

[vapid ibex]

Guys guys guys how about NEITHER

Don't fall to the systems grasp

[sand berry]

Someone made an OS that only Runs TETRIS

what the hell...

[verbal nymph]

my laptop has been getting random major fps drops recently, it doesn't matter if I'm gaming or on chrome, it spikes down to about maybe 5 to 0.

anyone know whats going on

[odd linden]

well. check task manager to see if anything is out of place

in your processes and in your performacne tabs

[verbal nymph]

nothing out of the ordinary, just chrome eating memory

[odd linden]

hmmm

what specs is it?

[verbal nymph]

I thought it could have been heating issue since the fans also stopped spinning when it began happening

[odd linden]

maybe

[verbal nymph]

lenovo p51, 1tbssd, 16gb ram, nvidia quadro m2200, i think cpu was i7 7somehting

[odd linden]

fans stopping isnt good

[verbal nymph]

yea, i took it apart and cleaned the fans best i could, and the run now, but it still happens, then a friend told me to update drivers, but still no good

it is refurbished and i've had it for about 1 or so years now

[odd linden]

you got anything interacting with the nvidia api?

i doubt it but idk im not smart

[verbal nymph]

explain if u can

i'm new to all this tech stuff, my first laptop in covid was an old dell workstation with windows 7

[odd linden]

uhhh idk how to explaining it tbh, i just know certain stuff interacting with nvidia api, example: signalrgb controlling nvidia gpu rgb, will make the gpu stutter badly

but thasts on pc

[verbal nymph]

then i shouldn't have anything interacting with it to my knowledge

no rgb, its an old gpu

[odd linden]

when the lag spikes happen, anything weird in the performance tab on task manager?

[verbal nymph]

it happens quick so i barely have time to check it

i can try

would i be checking performance or the processes tab

[odd linden]

ive never had issues like that on a laptop, sorry not sure what it could be

performance, check your gpu and cpu and ram

see if anything spikes with the lagg

maybe a clue to where this lag spike is coming from

[verbal nymph]

i'll get back to ya once it happens

it might be my cpu, i kinda saw it spike

[odd linden]

hmmmm

it might be

you might need to google isues, this is above my pay grade

[verbal nymph]

yea my cpu and gpu spike

to be frank im not sure what to look out for

[charred kiln]

https://tenor.com/view/dankpods-frank-bitey-frank-dankmus-format-error-gif-22269380

haha get it? frank?

[vapid ibex]

Can you download HW info and check the temps

It could also be unrelated and just a background task messing you up

[verbal nymph]

what typa task would it even be

[verbal nymph]

got msi and task manager up, temps look fine

bottom of the laptop is quite warm near hot, but not terrible

[vapid ibex]

Hmm that's weird it might also be a driver thing? I am not too sure what might cause this

[vapid ibex]

Ya pretty normal

[verbal nymph]

i already updated my drivers yesterday

[vapid ibex]

When did it start happening?

[verbal nymph]

lemme think

maybe around last friday or even thursday

[vapid ibex]

Can you recall any changes you made that might have contributed to the issue

Maybe a windows update or anything you can think of

[verbal nymph]

nothing really

[vapid ibex]

So no changes no new programs or anything?

[verbal nymph]

yea at least any that was close to when it started happening

[raw swift]

Would going from a 3060ti to a Rx 6700xt be a upgrade or no?

[verbal nymph]

so im looking at processes and my chrome and discord tasks are being run by my gpu in 3d mode or something

[vapid ibex]

That's weird

[verbal nymph]

i can send pics right?

[vapid ibex]

Sure

[verbal nymph]

few other things are like that as well

[vapid ibex]

Pretty sure it uses the GPU of the laptop

Maybe try checking crystal disk info your SSD might be dying maybe

[verbal nymph]

how do i do that

[vapid ibex]

Search crystal disk info download it , open it and check the disk health

Also on that note is your SSD near full or not?

[verbal nymph]

no about half

[vapid ibex]

That's good but check crystal disk info

[verbal nymph]

which one is the right one to download

[vapid ibex]

Any one they are just skins

[verbal nymph]

okay i ran it

not sure what to look for

[vapid ibex]

The health

Does it say good?

Something like this

[verbal nymph]

oh dear

thats not what mine looks like

frick

[vapid ibex]

Oh no wrong version I think

[verbal nymph]

i got the wrong one

[vapid ibex]

That's the retro one lol

[verbal nymph]

98%

[vapid ibex]

Well good news is that's good bad news is idk what the hell is causing this

Could you try uninstalling your GPU drivers with ddu and reinstalling them

Search a video on how to use ddu

[verbal nymph]

i don't want to half to bring it to a shop cause thats expensive so I've tried doing a bunch of stuff

some of my friends keep telling me its a thermal issue, so maybe redo thermal paste?

[vapid ibex]

Hmmm I don't think so

Try ddu first

If that doesn't work we could figure out something else

[hoary tree]

Valve fanboys are the absolute worst

[charred kiln]

nah its prusa fanboys and arch users

[hoary tree]

Valve, Linux and prusa fanboys are like the three horsemen of the apocalypse

[vapid ibex]

I don't like having Linux pushed to users

Like a lot of people who push the idea of Linux scrap off most of the cons or talk about it from a biased perspective

Like oh who cares about Fortnite anyway? Oh who cares if you can't play anti cheat games? You are doing yourself a favour

[charred kiln]

ikr

I like linux too but like you dont have to shove it down everyones throat

cant say the same for prusa tho, 1200eur for a bed slinger that cant even auto bed level is an atrocity

[charred kiln]

yeah its insane

I find it fun as a hobby and I even liked it when I used it daily but its insanely misleading what people say about it

[vapid ibex]

Exactly and someone will pull up and say "oh I never said that I know Linux isn't perfect but still better than windows" ya for certain stuff but why use it for daily use when u can have an operating system that doesn't make you work

[charred kiln]

for daily use for the ignorant user it has a long way to fo

[vapid ibex]

I literally saw a video about a windows update because I heard about a feature where I can copy text when taking a screenshot and directly saw comments about "oh just switch to Linux"

Their fan base is toxic

That's why it won't grow in a while

[charred kiln]

absofuckinglutely

[charred kiln]

same for open source 3D printing, I recently saw a comment on a bambu X1 review that said "bambu printers are not open source avoid at all cost" and I find that INSANELY out of touch

[vapid ibex]

I even used arch for 2 years because I had an igpu and the amount of stuff I had to do manually instead of being straight forward sucked hard, ended up using windows 11 at the end because programs were supported and upgraded my system fully

[charred kiln]

some people just want their printer to do the job...

[vapid ibex]

Open source applications aren't even good, like only a few like blender and davinci resolve are decent but otherwise they don't hold up

[charred kiln]

disagree to a certain degree

KDE connect is amazing

I mean its less trash than the windows phone connect

[vapid ibex]

Ya I did say some because overall most aren't great but only a few

[charred kiln]

but yea overall I agree with you

[vapid ibex]

Windows phone connect is too clunky

[peak knot]

Open source can be great but sometimes private developers are able to do the job better

[vapid ibex]

Ya most of the time

[charred kiln]

like dude just because it works for you doesnt mean it works for everyone

[charred kiln]

I have absolutely no idea about what im saying but I guess private devs can coordinate better

[peak knot]

I mean good example is openrgb vs SignalRGB we support more devices and are easier to use and offer a more complete solution biggest thing openrgb has on us at the moment is it works on Linux

[charred kiln]

yeah i find open rgb pretty damn trash

doesnt support my fucking GPU

[vapid ibex]

See this is the type of thing I'm talking about

[charred kiln]

vxTwitter / fixvx · Aug 5, 2025, 8:36 PM

[charred kiln]

for some reason the first thing I see in a picture is the aspect ratio

[ebon marlin]

Late 2027 release for a Switch 2 competitor 😭

[vapid ibex]

Pixel 6 pro

[peak knot]

PSP2… literally shows the psvita

[charred kiln]

eyo fellow pixel user

[limber ermine]

is this a bad fan setup?

[vapid ibex]

I really REALLY want to get a ps vista, use a 256gb SD card and mod it to oblivion

[ebon marlin]

Cuz there's no psp2 pictures yet

[vapid ibex]

Salute 🫡

[peak knot]

Love my hacked vita

[ebon marlin]

No one knows what it's gonna look like

[limber ermine]

Front 2 intake, top 1 intake 1 exhaust, back 1 exhaust

[ebon marlin]

Vita is pretty neat

[vapid ibex]

It's going for 90 quid on eBay market oled version, U think it's worth it? I never owned a console personally other than the Wii , I used mostly a ds, new 3ds XL . And I miss playing games in the comfort of my bed after a long day

[ebon marlin]

Great since it's pocket sized

[vapid ibex]

That steam deck is humongous also the switch looks like a 2012 Chinese tablet with that screen

[ebon marlin]

Had a lot of fun with the Project Diva games

[ebon marlin]

Yeah it's a day one unit which has been to hell and back

Multiple times

[charred kiln]

holy handheld pile

[ebon marlin]

The top intake/exhaust plastic grills have melted lol

[vapid ibex]

Does it support normal sd cards ? I heard it uses a different version or is that false

[peak knot]

I collect handhelds beyond gaming consoles lol

[ebon marlin]

You need an adapter

Sd2vita

[vapid ibex]

Ahh thought so

[peak knot]

You have to use microsd cards using the memory card adapter but you have to jailbreak it first

[vapid ibex]

It's fine tho since I do already have the SD card I just need the adapter

[ebon marlin]

Vita has a proprietary SD cards it uses but sd2vita let's you use normal SD cards

[ebon marlin]

They're on AliExpress for 1€

[vapid ibex]

I think it's pretty easy to do it I heard you can do it from the thing itself

[ebon marlin]

Yeah it's very simple and quick

[vapid ibex]

Ali express my love, I got a Xeon from Ali express for 3 quid

Couldn't believe it

[ebon marlin]

Yeah AliExpress sells alot of ancient Xeon's for dirt cheap

[vapid ibex]

Here it's a Xeon E5 2680 v4

[peak knot]

Best thing I got for free recently was a MacBook Pro m1

[vapid ibex]

My current system has the Xeon E5 2697 v4

It was like 35 quid from ebay

[vapid ibex]

Wow whos the supplier give me the name

Is it Mr trash bin or Mr family or mr work place

[peak knot]

I volunteer and do electronics recycling someone dropped it off to be recycled and I saved it and got it factory reset

[vapid ibex]

So mr workplace

Nice

[peak knot]

Not workplace just a side hustle

Work sends me enough tech as is

Half my daily is stuff borrowed from work lol

[vapid ibex]

All my pcs were OEMs that were mostly gutted and only came with a CPU and PSU and the motherboard I had to add most of the stuff and it helped me gain some experience

My current pc is a thinkstation p510

[peak knot]

This is my test bench setup I work from

[vapid ibex]

A hp z240 and a lenovo p510

[vapid ibex]

That white keyboard is screaming to belong in a white setup

[peak knot]

Logitech g715

[vapid ibex]

It belongs in a 13yr old kids setup with 5070 build lol

I keep seeing 13 yr olds with white pc builds on Reddit and I don't understand the trend with the white RGB it feels almost the same as everyone

Do most people buy RGB stuff for the gamer look or because of the colours ?

[peak knot]

Mostly for looks

People pay a lot for aesthetics

[vapid ibex]

I prefer warm colours so I got a monitor light bar, it really helps when you spend long hours on the desk

One thing I hate is that it literally shows any spec of dust

[peak knot]

Ring light in my pic can have its color temp changed

[vapid ibex]

Ya same with this, has 4 temp options and light intensity

[charred kiln]

ts is so optimum omg

[vapid ibex]

This is the control thing for it

[vapid ibex]

Optimum tech?

[peak knot]

Mine has an app

[charred kiln]

ya

[vapid ibex]

Woo fancy but how does that work

[charred kiln]

also wired model o my condolences

[peak knot]

It’s an elgato stream light it connects to wifi and then your phone just local connects through your wifi to the light

[vapid ibex]

Nah he more of a "esport" type of setup, I like warm setups his is too much in my opinion like different colours , I'm going for a setup similar to this

[peak knot]

They don’t make this model anymore which is a shame cause it’s peak

[vapid ibex]

Fancy stuff

[charred kiln]

his is also light flooded tho

[vapid ibex]

Ya warm light tho not RGB

[peak knot]

PS3 videogame piss filter vibe

[charred kiln]

his is white light that makes you have a headache

[vapid ibex]

PS3 gaming era was so dark and scary

[charred kiln]

also rude

[vapid ibex]

Hmm It looks more warm to me but I might be blind, either way my current light looks ok

[vapid ibex]

Nothing personal 😭 i just didn't know what to put

I got kicked out of a server because of it and I never even swore in that server

[charred kiln]

if you have nothing good to say dont say

[vapid ibex]

It doesn't mean it's meant to be an insult could just be banter

Better?

[charred kiln]

[vapid ibex]

Ya sorry 😔 my mind is not well lol

[charred kiln]

[vapid ibex]

It's foggy because I slept 4 hours and thought I slept like 12 … I slept 12 am and woke up 5am thinking I woke up 5pm

I thought I actually died I slapped myself

This never happened to me before

This is 89 quid

I wonder if it's worth getting

[sleek ibex]

Developers and other folks absolutely hated making games for the PS3.... Even the PS2 wasn't any better

[vapid ibex]

Oh ya the CPU was bonkers to work with

But it was more powerful than the ps4s one

[sleek ibex]

Yep even the folks behind Gran Turismo (PS exclusive) confirmed that sentiment

[vapid ibex]

My uncle got Gran Turismo 7 because he said it will help him get a feel for driving when he takes driving lessons .... Lol he now is doing the driving lessons but said it's not even close to it , I told him it was just an excuse to play the game 😂

[charred kiln]

yay my solder sucker arrives today

[sleek ibex]

Damnit discord, duplicate post..... And it deleted both the posts

Welp let's try this again

One of the major selling points to the PS2 was its DVD functionality. Especially since dedicated DVD Players during the PS2's day were obscenely expensive which made it very appealing

[vapid ibex]

I literally have no words just wow

I sometimes believe these are bots but wow

[sleek ibex]

Shit... I was still rocking a CRT monitor at 13

[paper urchin]

Guys what wrong wiht my pc mc take me 30gb of ram ??

[vapid ibex]

I never even had a pc at 13

I remember when i was 6 using a crt TV and a Wii playing FIFA lol

What blows my mind is when they say they got it themselves

Like no need to lie

[viral lantern]

At 13, me and my family were living with our grandparents (MENA generosity) because we lost our home during the 2007/2008 recession

[vapid onyx]

[tidal geyser]

Modern game needing modern hardware, no never

[charred kiln]

I wish I had moneys for that

[tidal geyser]

Also ain't that one of em 60 or 90$ games

[sinful cobalt]

i still have some “mental shit” similar to that of my uncle who literally has depression

[tidal geyser]

You do not have 30$?

[true stirrup]

Ngl it's so cheap I'll probably just grab it and not question it

[charred kiln]

it's like 60-70 to me cuz I have to import it

and I'd rather buy filament with that money

[tidal geyser]

Tf is dis

[sinful cobalt]

a new type of negative firmware we now call “AIware”

[vapid ibex]

I mean it does look like a mature setup but at 13 this is beyond anything I could have ever imagined, I didn't have a phone until 12 and I'm 18 so it's not like it was during the early 2000s, my cousin had a iPhone 4 at 3 dude 😭

[charred kiln]

if you don't know what it means block it lmao

[vapid ibex]

I actually used a Nokia that had no SIM card or anything just already downloaded games and I messed with it, was my mom's old phone it had angry birds. Its probably what made me interested in tech in the first place I remember when I was around 5 I used to play angry birds in church 😂

[sinful cobalt]

he simply has rich parents willing to love him financially, i cannot speak anything else. We all have different circumstsnces

[nimble badger]

hey could anyone help me with my post in #1106613567966429224

[vapid ibex]

That's understandable and all but this is beyond "financial help" it's more of a "just cuz" you know?

I wish more parents help their kids financially but this is a bit over the top

[sinful cobalt]

hes a reddit user.
full stop

thats all u need to know

[vapid ibex]

😭

[tidal geyser]

Flashing

[iron glen]

idk about helping, i'd rather them teach me quick ways to make some cash but ig google is a friend

[vapid ibex]

I think it would be better to learn the ways to make cash at that age but more so focus on your learning

At some point (during college break and stuff) they could get work experience or if their parents are fortunate and own a business they could get work experience there

[iron glen]

a for effort ig

[tender root]

Guys I have a 32GB (2x16GB) Corsair Vengeance 7200MHz CL34 ram kit [CMK32GX5M2X7200C34]

which is 'optimized for intel', i believe it only supports XMP, however I wanna get the 9800x3d, am I supposed to buy new ram too, or will these work out?

[indigo lintel]

#tech-chat-1 message

if it only does xmp u might be screwed

diagnosis: lack of google

Edit: god damn this took long to send. Mobile data here is tweaking

[iron glen]

because
a. very niche cases you need an actual person
b. some people are idiots and don't think about googling

[gloomy sleet]

locally run deepseek

[paper pelican]

Both have g sync+freesync with hdr10

[vapid ibex]

Let me guess Aoc 24g15n

[gloomy sleet]

locally running deepseek is the best way
