8th ( your turn to pay)

[azure topaz]

[random gyro]

i don't do direct deposit haha

[tame trout]

This case looks so good

[left dove]

why not

[azure topaz]

you get paid earlier RAHHHHHH

[random gyro]

i like to take a picture of it and put it on my bank app lol

[left dove]

DD is great

[azure topaz]

yeah but you still have to wait until u get ur check. generally once they finalize it youll get direct desposit within a day of em doin that

quickr

[random gyro]

i like mine

[brave brook]

how much of people in US would be able to survive on typical EU pay system. You work in month from 1 to last day of month, then you get paid for that month usually around 5th to 15th next month 😄

[random gyro]

what the f- 😭

[left dove]

last job I had they refused to do DD for any of the regular employees and only for managers, was weird

[tame trout]

This is much smaller and isn't flow

[random gyro]

its 2 days advance for DD

[azure topaz]

says 2-5 for me on my thingymaboob but

[random gyro]

the one you showed looks smaller

that angle looks like a mini pc

[random gyro]

[left dove]

A lot of companies & job positions work on the paid-monthly schema here in the states

[random gyro]

you spelled it wrong 😭

[azure topaz]

maboob

[random gyro]

hmmm

[left dove]

dang when'd you start taking hrt floppa

[grizzled frost]

i get paid weekly, idk how yall live getting paid monthly

[azure topaz]

hella rarded talking floppa

[left dove]

I love that people know of rarted

such a good phrase while sounding mad silly

[brave brook]

it is literally the standard pay system, technically only your first month is harder, after that it is just being capable to think about a monthly budget

[left dove]

Honestly I think most corpo positions do monthly in just about any country

[random gyro]

i've been in the workforce 5+ years, haven't done a budget yet

[grizzled frost]

a lot of salary positions are monthly

[random gyro]

i just don't go crazy spending

[grizzled frost]

most hourly positions are bi-weekly or weekly

[brave brook]

i mean there is no difference between being paid let's say $2500 once a month or $1250 twice a month

[grizzled frost]

just peoples ability to plan ahead

[placid plover]

dont wanna be obnoxious but if a fella could help me on this thread it'd be much appreciated https://discord.com/channels/375436620578684930/1423702519649009714

[grizzled frost]

and i mean that it makes it harder for short sighted people to manage their money

[left dove]

I budget by breaking months down into single weeks that I budget for, anything left over goes into the high APY savings

5% or something like that

[grizzled frost]

this is how you ask for someone to look at your thread, thank you so much for doing it in a polite manner

[pale flint]

refurbished

[grizzled frost]

buy used working servers, not refurbished

[pale flint]

ok bro

[grizzled frost]

never buy reference servers unless you love pain and agony

[pale flint]

👌👌🔥🔥🎂

[brave brook]

i know my normal month expenses, i allocate certain sum of money as my credit card payment (i found out my average spending via CC is around 500 euros), that leaves me with ~600-700 euros of 'free money' to use for anything unplanned/self-gifts etc 😄

[raw trout]

Found a killer deal on amazon. A gaming headset with removable mic, has 7 hrs of play time, advertised as 20 HRS of battery life,
Comes with a dongle, bluetooth support, aux support.

All for 21 dollars

It's amazon basics

Feels cheap but value for money 💰

[grizzled frost]

reference servers tend to be convoluted as hell, and only 75% functional

[raw trout]

Do I need to pay tax to do bitcoin mining?

[pale flint]

your choice

can be done both ways

[brave brook]

check your local laws, but usually if it is taxed, then it is when you convert it to currency

for example in my country it is taxed with both normal tax and also social fees, so it is taxed at around ~40% rate 🤷‍♂️

[pale flint]

😂👎

[raw trout]

In india banks can not do shit about Bitcoin mining but turns out 30 percent tax when cashing out but when mining on a rpi that's a dealbreaker

[left dove]

mining btc on an rpi 😂

[raw trout]

Everything else is just too old or too loud

[grizzled frost]

mining btc at all is crazy

[brave brook]

to be precise in my country it is 19% tax under 48.4k euros profit, 25% above 48.4k euros profit, plus 15% "health insurance fees" from the profit

[grizzled frost]

doesn’t even cover the electricity cost nowadays

[left dove]

mining btc without a datacenter is wild in 2025

[raw trout]

So what should I mine on that cost below 50 bucks

[left dove]

nothing lmao

go get a job

[grizzled frost]

mining btc makes zero sense now

it’s just not profitable

[left dove]

back in the amd fx days I made like 3btc off of cpu mining overnight for months

I lost/ruined the drive holding the wallet

😔

[raw trout]

Ya bro a 14 year old going to work in fucking india

[grizzled frost]

the amount of bitcoin that has been permanently lost is so sad

[raw trout]

That's sadge

[azure topaz]

nothing bro

[left dove]

Eh, live & learn

[raw trout]

K bro I'll just install the software on thin air

[random gyro]

sup

[left dove]

That's why I practice good data retention & backup methods now

[azure topaz]

there is nothing to mine on under 50$ that will make you any meaningful amount of money

[grizzled frost]

3 2 1 my beloved

[azure topaz]

or any amount of money but negative

sorry bro

[raw trout]

Im trying to raise money in my junior bank account

[azure topaz]

thats lovely. mining isnt doing that.

[grizzled frost]

you actively lose money mining bitcoin

[azure topaz]

youd spend -50$ and get maybe 5$ back before giving up

[grizzled frost]

the electricity cost is greater than the bitcoin you yield

[pearl fossil]

i hope the gpu will work once it arrives

[azure topaz]

so -45$ and a stupid extra computer thats useless

[pearl fossil]

it's still stuck in china

[left dove]

322, neighbors house will soon have a box that I'll have critical info backups saved to, as well as gcloud

[pale flint]

hope it arrives first

[raw trout]

What if i use a pc from windows 7;era that was a enterprise pc

[azure topaz]

stop talking

[left dove]

[pale flint]

hmmmm crazy

[pearl fossil]

got macos big sur on the hdd because anything newer would run like absolute crap because of the storage speed

[raw trout]

Get a combo jack splitter and then plug the green end to the phone. These things are dirt cheap. Try that and if it no work return it

[raw trout]

Try montrey

[pearl fossil]

a 7200rpm drive does not compare to even the cheapest ssds

[azure topaz]

on a g4? 😭

[pale flint]

always listen to your iphone

[azure topaz]

yeah the difference between moving parts and not

[raw trout]

Wait does g4 come with intel or powerpc?

[pearl fossil]

ngl i wanna put sonoma on it once i get the ssd and gpu

[left dove]

i want g4, and I want to replace the panel with an oled & updoot the internals

[pearl fossil]

[raw trout]

Dortania's

[left dove]

no, g4 chassis and monitor casing, swap panel with oled equivalent, and get one of them embedded mobile nano-itx boards and stuff it in the bottom. replace the USBAs for USBC andviola

[azure topaz]

is it a type C dongle like apple?

[pale flint]

goof

[raw trout]

[pearl fossil]

[azure topaz]

thats normal, generally theyre their own dacs and audio chips

[stable beacon]

aftermarket but yes type c to aux, the cable is a 3 pin

[left dove]

not really, I've wanted to do it since I was in high school

[azure topaz]

ah i see wak

[left dove]

Oh god that was 12 years ago

[pearl fossil]

[pale flint]

13 years ago?

[pearl fossil]

g4 is the name of the chip btw

i upgraded my dad's AIO from 3.5" WD HDD to 2.5" 840 Evo. The 3.5" HDD had an average speed while cloning around 10-15MB/s 😄

i think mine was last gen that had it, it only ran up to 10.4 and i swear i remember using these in kindergarten

[left dove]

I was a pudgy af lil doughboy back then

[brave brook]

not anymore, it's gone. Now there is a taped 2.5" SATA SSD in a space where 3.5" drive used to live

[raw trout]

Do you have any idea how to change the offline recovery installer to something that is somewhat new and not what the mac shipped with?

[stable beacon]

i come from a place where the most functional part of my keyboard was the rgb, i'm not even kidding i didn't have a computer to use it with

[pale flint]

18 might be considered adult but many people dont habe the right mindset to be mentally adult eve after 18

[left dove]

To me you're "adult" when you hit 23-25 since you know, that's when your prefrontal cortex starts to finish developing

[pearl fossil]

yeah not like there's any changes between a 17 and an 18 year old

[raw trout]

I had a camera but no pc to plug it in.

[left dove]

I mean there's legal changes

[pearl fossil]

true

[pearl fossil]

way too many in fact

[pale flint]

you will see many changes between 17-18

[stable beacon]

i'm in the limbo between 16-17 might as well be an adult but i'll probably still be a baby at 25

[left dove]

you're 16. you're still a baby

[pearl fossil]

LMAO

same

[left dove]

you can't be in "limbo" between two years

[pale flint]

you cant say what you'll be when you grow up

[raw trout]

Rn i have a old laptop that's better than my current pc but it has no Bios pc so now it's a paper weight with the white light on the battery indicator when it's plugged in indicating a bad bios

[pale flint]

thats a great information, i will try to find a use of it

[stable beacon]

now i see why i would need something better than a 6600xt 😭

[pale flint]

somewhat acceptable

atleast its open world game and not a clicker game

[stable beacon]

i could buy a 9070 right now but i'm saving up for a car 😭😭

[left dove]

cookie clicker is like an idler game

[pale flint]

bro is buying a car at 17

[pale flint]

runs in bg?

[left dove]

I interact with it maybe 5 times a day? I just leave it running in the background

I could be using the browser version but I bought the steam version to support ortiel

[stable beacon]

is it legally required to be gifted by your parents?

[grizzled frost]

no…?

[pale flint]

if your country permits car licence at 17

there is no problem

[stable beacon]

and i'm bargaining 3000 or less 😭

[stable beacon]

16 in california im clear

[pale flint]

crazy

[stable beacon]

it's 14 in idaho cause there's no one to crash into

[left dove]

16 year olds should only be permitted to drive heavily regulated and safety-rated cars. Too many of you young fucks are on the road being a gd menace to society

[thin plover]

ngl I think 18+ for driving alone like in Europe is better

[stable beacon]

fun fact: not my dads chevy that is a 5000 pound death trap which i am trading out for a civic any time now

[thin plover]

Also cuz our tests are way stricter

[pale flint]

and who said 18+ doesnt fuck around?

[left dove]

21+ to own a car, you can start learning at 18. other than that the only permittance for under 18 is farmwork

[thin plover]

didn't say that

[true stirrup]

There are enough idiots on the roads already, we don't need inexperienced people as well

[thin plover]

I said it's better

[pale flint]

everyone does but 16 is a bit young for driving ngl

[left dove]

16 years old and wanting to drive? get them an ebike or electric scooter. not a fucking car

Also driving tests should be redone every 5 years

[stable beacon]

i started sim racing and hanging with car buddies i'm never going back

[thin plover]

me and a couple of friends got our licences at 18, it's just where we live buying a car is more of a financial burden than a necessity

[stable beacon]

plus public transport is not in my favor

i walk faster than the bus i guarantee

[left dove]

Thank you for being intelligent 💕

[thin plover]

us driving tests should just be a lot stricter in general

[left dove]

THANK YOU.

[pale flint]

now i see the reason

[true stirrup]

Almost everyone here would probably fail lol
At least here where it's super strict. You don't turn your head enough one time at a corner? You fail

[left dove]

I love that though

[stable beacon]

i was so tired during my test i thought i failed on the first 3 questions but apparently i wasn't even close to failing 💀

[left dove]

forcing people to check their surroundings at all times & being aware of blind spots is not done enough in the states

[thin plover]

driving tests are almost the same across Europe in terms of strictness

[thin plover]

if you don't use your mirrors enough you fail automatically

[stable beacon]

i literally installed a mirror and headlights on my pedal bike lol i even got the honker

[thin plover]

especially important here where there's bicycles that could pass cars on the right

[left dove]

AND under president peyton's rule, if you're ever rendered guilty of a traffic crime like running a red light or t-boning someone, you lose your license for 5 years.

[true stirrup]

It has been a couple years since my driving test and I still have a reflex to turn my head to the right side window in an instant if I hear any clicks on it because my driving instructor tapped his pen on the window when I didn't turn my head enough lol

[stable beacon]

anyone but the orange man 😭

[pale flint]

?

[left dove]

And people over 55 have to take driving tests yearly. Any vision issues or motor control issues are instant disqualifiers

[true stirrup]

Bro trained me like you train a dog with a clicker

[thin plover]

getting my licence has also automatically made me turn my head every time I cross any path when I'm on foot or on my bycicle

[stable beacon]

my garage is now officially my dealership showroom

[pale flint]

if its free then sure

[thin plover]

it's not like I didn't do it before, just a lot less

[pale flint]

here it takes 100 euros per test

[thin plover]

lucky

[left dove]

tests are done by the dmv, which is state, which is paid for by federal

[thin plover]

my test was like 300

[true stirrup]

Yeah exactly the same for me

[thin plover]

idk about you but my life improved significantly after i left school

[left dove]

millenials are trying to fix it but the baby boomers really shafted us all the way to genz

[stable beacon]

moral of the story: california is best and you must remain in california once you step foot in it

[brave brook]

i seen few american youtubers being very confused about non-US road signs. In US you got everything in writing for some reason

[left dove]

I'm giving most of cali back to mexico

[stable beacon]

trueee

[left dove]

mexico 100% gets 95% of texas back

[stable beacon]

mexican hollywood lol

[pale flint]

bruh

[left dove]

hell they can take newmex & arizona too

[brave brook]

i mean i suspect not many would know what does this mean

[gloomy sleet]

never seen that in my entire life

[left dove]

nada

[pale flint]

no parking

[gloomy sleet]

apparently its no stopping?

[brave brook]

stopping and parking disallowed until canceled or until next crossing

[left dove]

how tf does that mean no parking

[gloomy sleet]

yeah idk

ive never seen that before

[pale flint]

well that how it is

[gloomy sleet]

surely just put some double yellow lines?

[left dove]

good thing I live on this side of the pacific

[brave brook]

or this 😄

[pale flint]

no overtaking

[gloomy sleet]

overtaking allowed?

[pale flint]

no*

[brave brook]

very visible under snow

[gloomy sleet]

if overtaking wasnt allowed itd have a cross through it

[left dove]

yellow lines become the snow because of cars driving over, duhh

[gloomy sleet]

it hasnt snowed in england for the last like 10 years

[pale flint]

the red circle around the sign means prohibition

[stable beacon]

some road sign afaik

[left dove]

I'd like another white christmas

[gloomy sleet]

i wouldnt

i hate snow

[stable beacon]

didn't happen to me last year but it snowed in on valentine's day and right as the flowers bloomed they came again

that last one though was beautiful

[left dove]

snowing while opening presents, drinking hot toddies, gathered around the fireplace while watching charlie brown..

[gloomy sleet]

this is my version of hell

[brave brook]

go to norway/sweden for christmas ?

[stable beacon]

as a photo taking hoarder i hate the fact that i didn't even have my phone to record such a sight 😭

[gloomy sleet]

finland when it isnt snowing is better than both

[brave brook]

the most absurd snowfall i ever seen was on April 19th few years ago. Literally in middle of spring we got heavy snowfall while outside temp was like 10-15C. The snow was gone in 1-2 hours.

[left dove]

tbh I want it to snow down by the river so I can redo this shot

[stable beacon]

literally what i was saying the whole of november and december was bare except for a few fake teaser snows

i'm glad i don't live in utah anymore

[gloomy sleet]

im glad i dont live in scotland anymore tbh

snow is just depressing

[stable beacon]

i want to bring my cat out to the snow for a photo but my sister will kill me if she found out i let her step outside 😭

[azure topaz]

is it fat

[distant frigate]

Snow is the best

How can you hate this

[left dove]

this made me laugh way harder than it should

[distant frigate]

This was the aftermath of a blizzard

[azure topaz]

fat cat

[stable beacon]

cause the joke is a bigger weeb than me named her yuki which is snow in japanese lol

[azure topaz]

im just wondering if the cat is fat

:(

[left dove]

kinda pictured you just straight ahead staring saying "is it fat" uncomfortably fast

[azure topaz]

basically how it went down i want to know about this meower

[distant frigate]

It’s hard to sleep when there’s a blizzard coming to you. I watched the weather channel for most of the night lol

[stable beacon]

you decide

[pearl fossil]

is it fine if i talk about macs mostly (my hyperfixation atm and it's still tech)

[brave brook]

we don't get that much snow, freezing is more common tho

[left dove]

AAAAAAAAAA

[azure topaz]

FREAKKK

[gloomy sleet]

im inclined to agree with your sister

[left dove]

[gloomy sleet]

assuming you mean let it out on its own

[distant frigate]

This better happen again

[stable beacon]

i want to do another meme and put her on the drivers seat but i'm in danger of that as well

[gloomy sleet]

lol

[stable beacon]

i switched over to c after staring at my temps and gaining too many international buddies lol

[distant frigate]

Also it was colder at night than forecasted. Snow on the ground + clear skies = radiational cooling

[azure topaz]

yeah but are you dancing and walking and rearranging furniture?

[stable beacon]

the best i can do without ai is take a normal photo inside the house and paste a snow background

[left dove]

degF = degC*1.8+32
degC = degF/1.8-32

[raw trout]

Why don't u use canava or paint.net

[left dove]

or krita

[raw trout]

Paint.net looks so similar to photoshop

[stable beacon]

cause i never use either before i don't use ai at all except to fw it

[left dove]

or, crazy thought

use ai to teach you to use basic photo editing tools

instead of having ai just do the work for you

[valid laurel]

anyone know about printers?

[left dove]

what kind of printers

inkjet? laser? 3d?

If the first two, avoid HP at all costs UNLESS its an ecotank model and you do a lot of printing

[valid laurel]

inkjet all in one

[left dove]

Brother

[valid laurel]

looking to use for documents and printing off artwork

[left dove]

brother scanner/copier printers are good and dont come with rarted drm on cartridges

[stable beacon]

my dad always buys cheap canon that's all i know

[valid laurel]

don’t want to spend loads on a printer maybe £200-£250 at most

[left dove]

canon is also an option

[valid laurel]

not computer

[left dove]

yeah you're not gonna be spending more than $200eu on a printer

[valid laurel]

meant to say printer

[distant frigate]

Yes

[stable beacon]

i should just use my library's printer lol

[valid laurel]

ok where’s that lol

[left dove]

?????

[distant frigate]

Also ok I found it lol

-25C lol. The forecast was for -13C

[sand frigate]

Does any1 know allot about controllers and amp cad combo devices?

[left dove]

wtf is an "amp cad combo device"

[valid laurel]

yh if i need to print something i either need to go through using my grandads one with a headache or my university one but my university is an hour away by bus

so would like my own for home

[left dove]

canon brand
or
brother brand

there you go

I'm not gonna find you specific models, you can do that on your own.

[brave brook]

A4 or A3 ?

[left dove]

more than likely a4

...honestly I don't think I've ever encounterd a3 paper

is that a euro thing

[brave brook]

then a4 ecotank printers are like 120-180 euros ?>

[left dove]

they've also got good color reproduction

[valid laurel]

a3 maybe

[valid laurel]

more like an art thing

[left dove]

yeah I just refreshed myself on the A* sizing

A0 is I think what we used in high school CAD

[valid laurel]

a1

there’s no a0

[left dove]

ja, there is

[valid laurel]

wtf

[left dove]

because the printer I was handling in CAD class def took paper wider than 2'

[valid laurel]

never seen an a0 or heard of a0

[brave brook]

A3 is a problem. A3 Ecotank printers start around 500 euros. My brother is looking at Canon PIXMA TS9550a/TS9551Ca printers. Those are A3, but unfortunately normal cartridges. Having said that, the Canon CLI-581 C/M/Y/BK XXL Multipack is 'only' 109 euros, but those are 4 cartridges, each rated for around 600 A4 pages, so while not great, 25 euros isn't that bad in the ink cartridge world. Nowhere near the 6-15 euro refill bottles tho

[valid laurel]

i would love to have an a1 printer but i know that’ll be expensive

[valid laurel]

idk what euros are, i work in pounds lol

[brave brook]

1 GBP = 1.15 euro

[valid laurel]

ok

[brave brook]

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Canon-TS9550a-Wireless-Colour-Printer/dp/B0D49H76WT

and XXL cartridges https://www.amazon.co.uk/Canon-Ink-CLI-581-Genuine-Cartridges/dp/B0CH8NDVXY/

but again, we haven't bought it yet, but the prints i seen on youtube looked nice (also can print edge to edge)

[brave brook]

[wicked cipher]

Holy cables

[robust marsh]

you were very close, very lucky

[balmy tapir]

i would reckon thats a config issue and not a speed issue

[craggy cove]

i actually sold a pc with this case, it looks better with a non modular psu lol (and an actual atx mobo)

[robust marsh]

only select devices can use 5g or 4g

[vale reef]

it factory resets itself every night

[stray portal]

sooo does that mean if the carrier doesn't like my phone model it doesn't get 5g or 4g?

[wicked cipher]

how much profit?

[balmy tapir]

gang what

[robust marsh]

yes

pretty much i think

[stray portal]

holy moly how do I check if its supported

[wicked cipher]

Dawg, just get a new network provider atp

[robust marsh]

i dont know, what network do you have?

[craggy cove]

i5-8400, 16gb, mobo = 60€
rtx 2060 = 70€
psu = 10€

total: 170€

[balmy tapir]

[left dove]

your country is so fucked lmao

[rigid fjord]

tmobile is in the uk, verizon nope, otherwise there's virgin/virginmedia, sky, o2, vodaphone, EE/orange

[vale reef]

[molten crypt]

only virgin?

sounds like a good time

i have a youtube addiction, what do i do?

[rigid fjord]

sounds like you're fucked for where you are, i can choose any of them for mobile use, let alone cheapo ones like lebara, but i've stuck with o2 for mobile use

[molten crypt]

people tell me to get a hobby, but i actually dont have any interest in anything, all the cool stuff is expensive

[vale reef]

probs expensive to lay wire right next to a train line, its literally meters away

we still have copper

3 whole mbps

[rigid fjord]

nah, me thinks it's just spooky's location in the uk that's fucked, i know i don't have the issues they're getting

[rigid fjord]

i'm with sky for landline use ( dsl for internet) and get a fuck ton more speed than you currently

[stray portal]

Frutiger aero

Also Lil guy was singing the music sounds

[molten crypt]

i was thinking about deleting youtube and killing myself but that would take so long, i cant be bothered to do that. i dont have good self control, like if i see what i want, ill probably cave in, and youtube is just always there, anything you want, its on youtube, music, study material, and then i end up seeing useless content that i shouldnt watch like gamign videos and i click on it, so how do i NOT see anything on my home page so that i dont get distracted?

[azure topaz]

bro what

[rigid fjord]

list of previous tests to show @vale reef

[vale reef]

bros life support is youtube

[stray portal]

no one wants to hear this bro

[azure topaz]

bros therapist is tech chat one

respectfully* 😭

[stray portal]

get wifi anywhere you go ahh message

[azure topaz]

school/work counselor, parents, friends, etc, not randos who likely dont care about you

👍

[molten crypt]

you can hear text?

[stray portal]

you know what...

actually I would say something but don't wanna get banned

[molten crypt]

youre the tech genius, help me with this issue man

[azure topaz]

im not a genius or anything

[rigid fjord]

latest test

[azure topaz]

nor am i one who studies social groups/struggles

[rigid fjord]

we can't fix what you need to speek with a doctor about

[stray portal]

show us the ip part so we can properly rate it

[molten crypt]

is there maybe an alternative to youtube or soemthing?

[azure topaz]

xvideos

[molten crypt]

wtf

this isnt youtube stuff

[rigid fjord]

nope

[molten crypt]

that isnt even a real site

[stray portal]

are you sure

[molten crypt]

you play counter strike

[stray portal]

So what

[molten crypt]

that makes sense

[vale reef]

how is that even possible

[stray portal]

it's peak

[molten crypt]

the peak of my tip maybe

what do u have cameras in my room?

youre so innapropriate

[vale reef]

im gonna chuck this router out the window and pray it lands on an infrastructure technician

[distant frigate]

This gets a lmao from me

[stray portal]

Yall fw nubia phones

[distant frigate]

Why would you do all this coaxial work when you could just go full FTTH?

[stray portal]

Me when I see the buzz (boy huzz)

[distant frigate]

Installing new amps for this is a nonstarter imo

Also swapping out taps screw that

[craggy cove]

good chips good price but eh software

[stray portal]

I prefer their redmagic counterparts

everything is so great and it also gets 5 years software updates in UK and EU

And Jerry rig everything also recommended them and likes them

[azure topaz]

why specifically in uk and eu

[stray portal]

because of laws implemented by europe

[azure topaz]

okay so theyre not going to release trhem in the US though?

[distant frigate]

Yeahhh this is to be expected lmao. 6 GHz is not easy to do at all on coax

[stray portal]

other regions get 3 years

[azure topaz]

lol

thats absolutely stupid

"here we already made the updates but we're not going to serve them to you"

"get fucked moron"

[stray portal]

it costs money to send out updates

[azure topaz]

yeah glaze the company

thats unacceptable lowk

[stray portal]

I'm not glazing but for a smaller company I see why they cheap out in non mandatory markets

[wheat torrent]

my friend sent me some used ssd and I think the border office will fuck me over big time

[azure topaz]

if a significant game update comes out but you can only download it in regions where the game sold good would that be fair

[stray portal]

Brands like honor do it too, many brands do it in fact

[azure topaz]

yeah and thats also crap

👍

[verbal prawn]

why is thinking about spending money so much easier then actually spending money

[azure topaz]

yeah sorry, cause you live in brazil, you cant download this update

[stray portal]

don't get me wrong it still sucks and everyone should get the same treatment.. Everyone's money is worth the same

[azure topaz]

so say that it sucks and dont start out with "it costs money"

rather than glaze the company cause "other people do it too"

[stray portal]

I'm just saying I get where they are coming from

[verbal prawn]

i don't

[azure topaz]

im saying its unreasonable regardless

esp if the updates themselves are already mostly the same across regions lol

its just another way to cheap out and decrease support simply because they can

[stray portal]

yea I get that but everyone in the industry does it so it isn't really fair to point fingers at someone specifically

[azure topaz]

i dont htink apple makes my phone less supported in the US than it is in the EU

they just apply the changes the EU makes them do world wide

because that makes actual sense

[verbal prawn]

whats stopping you from just downloading another countrys udpates?

[azure topaz]

probably some arbitrary security bullshit you cant get around without losing banking support or something

similar to knox or whatever

[verbal prawn]

fuck knox

let me root my device so my airpods work properly

[azure topaz]

thats a crazy sentence man

[stray portal]

kinda true but windows also does it to some extent.. Some features are simply not avaliable in America because Microsoft doesn't wanna miss the money from forcing Americans to have bloat

[azure topaz]

i mean thats true but its still stupid 😭

[stray portal]

Windows in Europe is extremely different to American windows you would think it's a modded version

[azure topaz]

i dont care that other people do it because everyone is doing it, doesnt change that its still dumb

like lemmings yo

[stray portal]

ya it's sad the state of the world we live in that companies can just do this.. But atleast Europe does something to combat it

[azure topaz]

1 company finds a way to make even more money and they all follow

[stray portal]

exactly I lose all respect for companies that do that

[azure topaz]

redmi and honor should be no different 👍

[verbal prawn]

sounds like the rest of the industry and apple icl

[azure topaz]

hate everyone

you can hate the company and still buy their product i wont hold u on that

[atomic shuttle]

guys what could I possibly do with a key-shaped, 1.8Gb flash drive

[verbal prawn]

get a new flash drive

[azure topaz]

i accept that unfortunately therte is not going to be an optimal no con solution to a lot of tech related things

[atomic shuttle]

I was thinking of flashing an os on it but it is way too small for that

[azure topaz]

how bored are you man 😭

[verbal prawn]

nice

[azure topaz]

shut up bitch

sorry jerry

[stray portal]

lowk get a very minimal Linux distro and install it on the stick

[atomic shuttle]

I'm not bored

[verbal prawn]

only if you get on ron

[azure topaz]

youre

[civic ferry]

we maybe need a new gpu

[azure topaz]

wondering what you can do with a 2gb flash drive

i think youre a smidgen tiny little bit bored

[verbal prawn]

store bios updates

[stray portal]

install like some shitposts

[azure topaz]

yeah bro go take some screenshots of your bios and store them there

[stray portal]

those low quality shit posts

[azure topaz]

use it as a boot loader and install an nvme drive to an unsupported system

[verbal prawn]

also why do you have a less then 2gb flash drive in 2025

it's not even 2

[azure topaz]

i had a 128mb dont worry

i used the 128mb for exactly what i said above lol

[atomic shuttle]

I just found it in my drawer and i thought it looked cool

[azure topaz]

just as a bootloader, which i mean, bootloader partitions are usually 128mb or 64 or soemthing so, makes sense

[azure topaz]

in my room somewhere

jerry listen to pieree bourne

[verbal prawn]

i have a 128gb flash drive somewhere

[azure topaz]

im thinkin ex factor

rn

[azure topaz]

i have no large flash drives lowkey

just a couple of 32s and such

[verbal prawn]

ew sounds french

[azure topaz]

hes not

[atomic shuttle]

isn't a bootloader the thing that allows you to switch to a different OS

[azure topaz]

hes the pieree wanna come out here? guy

[azure topaz]

yes

[stray portal]

I have a 16gb flash drive... Poor guy is the reason my windows got fucked up multiple times

[verbal prawn]

I had to buy a new one recently and I lost it somewhere

[azure topaz]

this is why i have two 32s

cause ill lose one at least constantly

sometimes both but ill never find both only one

[verbal prawn]

so i need to throw away my 8gb flash drive to find my 128?

[balmy tapir]

lol

[azure topaz]

the solution to losing your lighter is to just throw ligthers around your room so you cant lose them

this applies to flash drives

just get like 8 of those bitches and spin in a circle while throwing

[stray portal]

Last time I fucked up my windows I tried to install opensuse but it destroyed all of my partitions and my windows was still there with all it's data, it's just that it couldn't boot I think the windows boot thing was destroyed so I had to stay up until 4am to reinstall everything

Does anyone know how the AMD 9000 series card do with video encoding, I'm running an RX 6650 XT and not having NVENC has been a pain since swithcing to team red

[vital gyro]

I like how standard Integrated Graphics finally made it to 750 Ti/1050 (non-TI) levels of performance, and the "high end" iGPs can perform at the same level as a 1650 non-SUPER.

For lighter titles like Fortnite (performance mode especially), Minecraft w/o shaders, Roblox, CS:GO 1 (bad example since even a GT 1030 can run that very easily), Marvel Rivals, Overwatch, Valorant and COD, you don't even need a GPU anymore since all of those will run on the modern integrated graphics in the 8000 series APUs.

[random junco]

nvidia is objectively better for encoding/decoding anyways, but the 9000 series will be better than the 6650xt

[empty quartz]

Get a b580 if you need to do video encoding

My b580 is also better for fucking rendering in blender

[stray portal]

A telefo-WHAT??

[craggy cove]

oops warshipped

[rose stream]

Depending on what you do.
In only a few cases (particularly involving anything RT related) is where a B580 wins out, whereas at everything else, that... Does not have anyone considering Intel at all when it comes to gpu rendering in Blender.

Arc gpus will lose to both Nvidia and AMD gpus for everything else in Blender rendering, and then when it comes to RT, they'll get absolutely trounced by Nvidia gpus utilizing OptiX.

[iron glen]

[steel umbra]

[tame trout]

Reminds me of something sad tbh

[kindred halo]

[rose stream]

Yes, they can and way better than 6k series.

[craggy cove]

they wanted an iphone se lol

[tame trout]

That's longer than the average child in gaza gets to live

[craggy cove]

what

[iron glen]

what could possibly be wrong that i can't access marketplace

[kindred halo]

Yeah that's usually sub 48h depending - But I don't think it's best to discuss that here

[iron glen]

i am 23 years old afterall

[rose stream]

Just don't compare them much to 7k series, especially the RX 7900 skus. All of three of them are better for video encoding than everything before and after at this time. Lol.

[tame trout]

One every hour

[craggy cove]

my brother had this and they randomly removed it

then i got it but got the option of an ai face check ???

and it failed me for some reason even tho i was 19 then

[distant frigate]

I hate random bad chest pains. But it’s not life threatening thankfully

Chest pain doesn’t always mean a heart attack

[stark kiln]

I barely have them

[royal loom]

just get one with the least and mod it to have more

[distant frigate]

Heart attack would actually have radiating chest pain

[stark kiln]

Why would it be modded to have you

[royal loom]

cus i shall me the mainboard

[stark kiln]

If you shall be the mainboard, main thou shall connect to thy mainboard as a graphical chip?

[royal loom]
