[stable beacon]

os didn't clear it apparently i might not have waited long enough

[tired bear]

@near crag
as simple as this

[stable beacon]

i reset in bios menu so there's that

still seeks to be happening

[near crag]

where buy this!!!

[tired bear]

that chip is inside psvr2 pc adapter

[near crag]

uuuuu

this is such a dumb problem ive created for myself lmao

[tired bear]

its idiotic that product like that doesent exists apart from psvr2 adapter lol

[near crag]

yea that's dumb as shit

[tired bear]

even in diagrams they locate the chip on the motherboard, but clearly you can have it externaly too

[near crag]

does this actually exist as a thing to buy though

[tired bear]

this is what is inside psvr2 adapter

PD controller (top left chip)
this mcdp6000 is rectangular one in top middle
bottom part is just power regulation for usb pd

[stable beacon]

k so im cooking my imc rn

might be because the 8gb ram but its getting real hard to type now or do too much

[tired bear]

eval board exists too

[stable beacon]

yeah

[tired bear]

[near crag]

wonder if this would work with the corning thunderbolt cable

[tired bear]

depends if they require tb or can just use type c DP alt mode

not sure if they differ in implementation

[near crag]

hmmm

wonder if theres a way to test that

[tulip sparrow]

NOT all cables are equal and many don't handle video

[stable beacon]

i dont think it has anything to do with the imc or the os, it MIGHT be windows but its taking a while for me to get into the bios menu

[tired bear]

we are beyond that
do thunderbolt cables and docks work with usb c dp alt mode host

looks same to me, other than TB support of 8 lane instead of 4

and from what i know most tb implementations just have 4 lanes hooked up anyway

[tulip sparrow]

Thunderbolt should have DP Alt support yes

I would be very surprised if a TB Dock didn't have the full suite of things

[near crag]

hmmmm

need to find something that's DP-alt mode over USB-C and test it with this dock

[tulip sparrow]

Phone?

Samsung usually does

NOT sure about the iphone

[tired bear]

New one does

15 works with type c dock

[tulip sparrow]

i was using a C to hdmi cable with my Samsung Note 10+ non 5G

[tired bear]

But it just mirrors video, no dex-alike interface

[tulip sparrow]

RIP proper Dex

[stable beacon]

throwback to when this thing broke 💀

[tulip sparrow]

OneUI 8+ has a "New" Dex mode even tho its just Googles attempt at a "Desktop" underneath some Samsung tweaks

[tired bear]

What broke?

[stable beacon]

the tip

[tulip sparrow]

I assume the cap broke off

[tired bear]

No that is a cap

[stable beacon]

the cap is stuck on the tip

[tired bear]

Its ment to twist off

[near crag]

oh no shit i'm gonna go test this

[stable beacon]

if you look the tip is supposed to be there but it's recessed

[tulip sparrow]

Tubes like that dont have a pointy tip

[stable beacon]

they should

[near crag]

thats not broken

[stable beacon]

100% is

[near crag]

THAT'S broken

[tired bear]

It is but it doesn't matter lol

[near crag]

yea goop comes outta the hole

[tired bear]

Goo is goo

[stable beacon]

its gonna be messier fs

[near crag]

just lick the extra off like an ice cream cone

[tulip sparrow]

the goop is to thick for a tiny point hence no point on a tube of thermal paste

[near crag]

bigger the gob, better the job

[stable beacon]

the gpu lock is super stubborn

[tulip sparrow]

Oh don't get me started on the lock for pci-e slots

[sinful cobalt]

try getting that latch down on a normal mobo with no special features and a 4 slot card attached to it

added bonus for a chonky air cooler in the way

[stable beacon]

i just had to push it up so it would be level and put a bit of force

[tulip sparrow]

^^^^^^^^^^^^

@sinful cobalt been there

[stable beacon]

all this to take out an ssd 💀

[tulip sparrow]

Took an hour+ to get the stupid thing open even with a long screwdriver

[sinful cobalt]

https://tenor.com/view/clair-obscur-gif-3997765438463569121

[tulip sparrow]

trying to press and the stupid thing would NOT press and I felt like I broe the stpid latch at once point I pressed so hard with the screwdriver

This was with a double slot card and my peerless assassin 120 SE cooler

Or was that the stock Wraith Prism cooler for my 3700x and my 2060 Super?

But still it was impossible to get the stupid thing open

My hand was to big to fit down in there to unlatch it and a screwdriver wasn't helping

[stable beacon]

it's working with 3 ram sticks but the slow load is still happening with 0 ssds

[silk merlin]

Anyone else on Android getting this a lot lately? There is no way to get out of it. It's like Google is forcing us to turn on backup.

[formal sonnet]

Can't say I am, but that's likely because photo backup is already enabled.

[tulip sparrow]

I am on a Samsung which I am pretty sure has their own for this

[silk merlin]

well...duh. Lol

[raven spoke]

Not related but I always get spammed with I’m low on storage

[silk merlin]

they do. I stopped using Samsung phones because of the bloatware and that they push their software on users so much.

[silk merlin]

I back my phone's photos up to a drive every few months so I'd free up space and avoid those warnings

[tulip sparrow]

Also I use tresorit myself with 50gb of space that I got for free

Also samsungs stuff is there and taking up space but isn't thrown into my face 24/7

[silk merlin]

So I literally have to close Gallery and reopen it to get rid of the pop-up. That's insane

[tulip sparrow]

I get no such popups with "Gallery"

[halcyon fox]

I wish I had a little bit more space on my desk for my speakers 😭

[silk merlin]

I think I still have an old flip phone from 1999 somewhere. I am ready to go back to that.

[halcyon fox]

This is going to be TIGHT

[tulip sparrow]

You have plenty of space there LOL

[ocean axle]

yea, theres plenty of space for speakers

[halcyon fox]

They're 5" in depth

[ocean axle]

biggest waste of space there is the laptops

[silk merlin]

you have plenty of room. Just need to elevate them

[halcyon fox]

Good point.

I'll have to look into options for that but im in a bit of a constrained budget because of all I bought already

[silk merlin]

will require a little creativity, but I have faith in you

[tulip sparrow]

Now this is a tight fit

[halcyon fox]

Yes

Linus would not be happy

[fickle ivy]

Seriously, I can't post 3 images in 1 message 😐

[tulip sparrow]

that is a 27" primary and a 15.6" portable monitor

[fickle ivy]

Which of these 3 lenses should I consider buying, or should I look at other options? Budget is $160 CAD max (part one)

[halcyon fox]

I've just got two laptops and a tablet as a multi monitor setup

[fickle ivy]

Part 2

[neon kiln]

What do you want to shoot?

[fickle ivy]

Aircraft

[tulip sparrow]

Desktop is a Ryzen 7 5800x3D 32 gb of 3200mhz ram a 3070 Ti (needs replacing becuase 8GB of vram) inside a Pop Air Solid case sitting on the floor

ZERO room for my 24" secondary monitor hence the 15.6"

[neon kiln]

This one

[grizzled frost]

flying or on the ground

[fickle ivy]

Both

[tulip sparrow]

Like at airshows?

[grizzled frost]

i'd absolutely go with the 300mm one then

you're going to be quite limited by what you can shoot with 200mm

[neon kiln]

I wanted to get a pcie adapter to fit an nvme drive, is it even worth it with this MOBO? or should I just stick to SATA until I can afford a new MOBO?

[grizzled frost]

HAHAH! i didn't even know PCIE 2.0 was still a thing

[tulip sparrow]

How old is that motherboard?

[neon kiln]

2015 I believe

[halcyon fox]

Not terrible, but certainly could use an upgrade.

My setup as shown here is from left to right:

Intel Core i7-13700HX
32GB DDR5 5600MHz
Samsung 990 Pro w/Heatsink SSD 2TB + 1TB WD Black
NVIDIA RTX 4060 MAX-Q 8GB

Tablet is an Onn Tablet 11 Pro (2024) running a custom Android 16 GSI

And the MacBook has
Intel Core i9-9980HK
64GB DDR4 2667MHz
512gb soldered NVMe storage (😭 )
AMD Radeon PRO 5500M 4GB
Windows 11 via boot camp

[sinful cobalt]

backstabs himself by having two laptops like that

[feral stream]

What do you guys think? I’m running 13 fans right now just gotta save up for the graphics cards on both of the computers 😄

[ocean axle]

^

[neon kiln]

I got the MOBO, An i7 7700k , gtx 1650 and 16gb ddr4 for £75, want to upgrade now though

[halcyon fox]

Gpus are definitely needed for the future

[feral stream]

lol

[sinful cobalt]

Guys grab your baseball bats, we’re stealing ram tonight

[ocean axle]

GPU wasn't top priority?

[feral stream]

No

[tulip sparrow]

ok 2015 would certainly explain things a bit more lol. My i5 3570k has a msata port on the mb lol

[halcyon fox]

it probably should be for a gaming computer

[warm anvil]

hi

[sinful cobalt]

RGB fans are an absolute priority we just dont understand

[feral stream]

It’s just 64 GB chill

[fickle ivy]

Ight, I'll order it :D

[warm anvil]

more fans

[feral stream]

At 3600mh

[feral stream]

Yeah, I can’t put any more fans in it there’s just no areas to do so

[ocean axle]

but, why?

[fickle ivy]

Just at the airport, my 18-55mm is pretty limited

[warm anvil]

frick

[sinful cobalt]

question is where did he shit out 13 fans i can only see 10

[warm anvil]

same

[neon kiln]

Definitely go for the 300mm with autofocus

[ocean axle]

AIO has one (11), PSU has one (12)

does the board too for 13?

[warm anvil]

is that ur gpu at the top

[sinful cobalt]

Watchout, he’s gonna be unleashing his X3D’s integrated graphics for gaming

[feral stream]

No

[sinful cobalt]

(its only good for troubleshooting)

[fickle ivy]

I'm just concerned with not having VR, I'll have to learn how to brace myself

[feral stream]

Push pull set up on the side. I had to buy hardware because no one really does this

[tulip sparrow]

Where is the PSu in that thing anyways?

[feral stream]

On the other side

[halcyon fox]

But no gpu???

Bruhhhh

[neon kiln]

How low does your ISO go on your camera? You should be able to get shutterspeed fast enough to not worry about that

[ocean axle]

wtf, why?

[feral stream]

Yep, the ram was my top priority I got it as soon as I could for $120

[halcyon fox]

At least get 32gb ram and a 4060 or something 😭

[fickle ivy]

It goes down to 100 and up to like 32000 smth but that's suuuupper grainy

[halcyon fox]

Fair enough

Is it actually reputable?

What brand?

[feral stream]

I’m gonna be going to 9070 XT for this one

[feral stream]

Corsair

[ocean axle]

spent more on your fans that you will be your GPU

[tulip sparrow]

At this rate we will be well in to AM6 by the time I can afford a new system

[sinful cobalt]

“We already have enough intake fans- lets add more and create a hurricane”

[neon kiln]

Keep ISO at 100, aperture as low as you can , and shutterspeed as high as you can , if you're shooting at the sky you should have enough light

And if you're really worried about being too shaky get a cheap tripod

[feral stream]

I really need to make sure I can tame the I-9 14th GEN KS

[sinful cobalt]

you need to know ball

[feral stream]

And it stays chilly 78 degrees Celsius under max load

[halcyon fox]

to be honest I have no no idea how amd gpu naming works but I think that's a high end gpu

[feral stream]

I know that case, but it is Hella expensive also nice build!

[tulip sparrow]

JUst glad I was able to get a POP AIR SOLID case

[fickle ivy]

I've got a cheap tripod, it's just somewhat hard to turn

[feral stream]

A little bit better in some cases than a 5070 TI

[tulip sparrow]

aka no glass any where with the case

[ocean axle]

you bought a 14900ks, and no GPU?

[fickle ivy]

Well, vertically, horizontal it's smooth

[tulip sparrow]

all metal

[neon kiln]

Might have to loosen some bolts ?

[feral stream]

You guys are acting like I will never be able to get a GPU. It is not that bad.

[ocean axle]

just, priority ordering

[feral stream]

My priority was getting a system that launches

[ocean axle]

we are acting like you made a stupid decision to buy RGB before a GPU

because you did that, and its stupid

[fickle ivy]

I'll be able to do 100iso and at the very max 300mm 5.6f but at 70mm I can do f/4

[sinful cobalt]

I rather prioritise having a functioning GPU to game over having a RGB fan overload

the coolers on the cards are sufficient to cool them itself

[feral stream]

It really wasn’t that expensive and I don’t think you know how hot the ks runs

[ocean axle]

you also bought a KS

[feral stream]

I like to overclock too, so it was pretty much a priority

[ocean axle]

and a 14900 (any variant)

both of which are stupid in their own right

[feral stream]

And? For $370 it really isn’t that bad.

[ocean axle]

was it used?

[neon kiln]

Do that and just change shutterspeed for your lighting

[feral stream]

The 14th GEN are completely fine now at least if you know what you’re doing

[tulip sparrow]

GOD I hope not

[feral stream]

No

[sinful cobalt]

simply inefficient versus ARL and zen +5%

[neon kiln]

If I was in your shoes I'd definitely get that lens though

[tulip sparrow]

Its only a matter of WHEN it fails NOT IF

[sinful cobalt]

I rather take a 265K combo over a 14900 variant anyday

[ocean axle]

the number of "fixed" ones ive seen die, i dont trust raptor at all

[feral stream]

I already had that motherboard on a previous build though

[ocean axle]

12900k tops then

[feral stream]

Nah

[stable beacon]

yeah i have a good idea it's not the ram, all 4 slots are populated

[sinful cobalt]

14900K is a power hogger

[feral stream]

All you gotta do is really just under volt

-107 and it’s set

[sinful cobalt]

mf talking about some undervolt after getting a 14900KS

[tulip sparrow]

run memtest 86

[sinful cobalt]

https://tenor.com/view/jerry-meme-tom-and-jerry-meme-jerry-points-get-a-load-of-this-guy-this-guy-gif-11384860625931393733

[ocean axle]

one does not simply buy a 14900ks to undervolt it

[stable beacon]

that is what it is 💀

[feral stream]

There’s really no downside to under volting lol

[stable beacon]

look at the top left corner

[tulip sparrow]

lol

[fickle ivy]

I have asked my mom to order it, I hope she actually does like she said she will

[sinful cobalt]

You bought a overclocking CPU specifically with S just to do the opposite of what it was meant for

[fickle ivy]

Gonna get 3 years warranty too just in case as it is a used lens

[feral stream]

I’m at 6.3 GHz but I’m under voting it

[stray plinth]

just got all of this cat-5e ethernet cables for $3

[ocean axle]

undervolting the ring specifically, right?

[sinful cobalt]

just say you also run it at jedec atp

[ocean axle]

AFAIK, thats the part that dies

[feral stream]

It gets a solid 14,850 on XTU

[feral stream]

What is that

[pulsar root]

Why is like EVERYONE who is drawing notes for math/physics is using an iPad lol

[ocean axle]

you dont know what JEDEC is?

[feral stream]

I feel like I should know what it is

[sinful cobalt]

This guy needs to grow both his brain and his testicles

[feral stream]

I can’t remember

[ocean axle]

Joint Electron Device Engineering Council, they make the DDR spec, among other things

[feral stream]

OHHHH

[sleek ibex]

[sinful cobalt]

basically the speed standard that is certified safe

[feral stream]

YA

[ocean axle]

its the design speed

[feral stream]

Ya I know I don’t use the abbreviation

[ocean axle]

you dont use JEDEC, or?

[feral stream]

But what would you rate the build?

[ocean axle]

no-gpu/10

[feral stream]

Honestly, not sure I would have to check currently at my dad‘s

[ocean axle]

too-much-rgb/10

fishtank/10

[midnight wind]

inb4 "why is windows so unstable and blue screening, shit vibecoded os"

[feral stream]

Is my first fish tank build honestly I think it looks pretty cool but cable management is just more difficult

[tulip sparrow]

Glad I don't have a fishtank or a cpu thats going to die

[feral stream]

If you’re crashing, then you’re doing too much

[feral stream]

Wdym

[ocean axle]

here, rate my build

[sinful cobalt]

he also needs to undervolt his fans, aio, mobo, ssd

[feral stream]

Good components I would pick a different air cooler, though it doesn’t really match

9/10

[sleek ibex]

Performance 1 FT?

[ocean axle]

NH-D12L, needed it to fit in a 4u case

[tulip sparrow]

an exploded view of my case

[ocean axle]

also, can you even id all of those components?

[feral stream]

Ahhhh 8/10 then

[neon kiln]

Can y'all recommend a budget MOBO? I want to upgrade my H110M ECO

[tulip sparrow]

all metal and mesh and I have a 5800x3d system

[feral stream]

Yes

[ocean axle]

start listing then

[feral stream]

Bro acts like I can identify compliments just by look what I can tell you is that motherboard is pricey and I’m happy that you have it. They’re really good!

Are you on 90 series or 70 series? For your Gpu?

[feral stream]

Wait a second do you not have any exhaust fans? What are you doing?

[ocean axle]

MSI Z690 Tomahawk?

[feral stream]

Z790 close enough though

I don’t constantly do research and look at computer components so I haven’t unlocked that skill, but that is pretty cool to be able to do that!

[ocean axle]

nope, it just positives its way out the case

[feral stream]

Why?

[ocean axle]

CBA to install one

[sleek ibex]

Mine is also like this

[feral stream]

Ah

[tulip sparrow]

Sounds about right

[sleek ibex]

[feral stream]

What CPU do you have anyway anyways?

[ocean axle]

9950x3d

[feral stream]

Nice

[ocean axle]

also, its not the first time ive had no exhaust fan

[feral stream]

OK in this case you’re making up for it also that one looks absolutely insane! But why only two intake fans it looks like you could maybe fit a third one in

[rocky citrus]

solid pc

[ocean axle]

3rd was on the way

that was the easist fan to access, so it was the slot that got to wait

[sleek ibex]

I've never done a personal WC loop build with rear exhaust

[feral stream]

Makes sense

[ocean axle]

i only had 8 of the 9 i needed

[feral stream]

How much money are you guys making to do this type of stuff? I don’t think I could ever do this on my $17 an hour.

[ocean axle]

a nice amount

[modest flame]

I've run into a little issue. I have Linux Mint XCFE on a Dell Inspiron 2-in-1, and I wanna rotate the screen so I can use the laptop in tablet mode with my stylus.

I can rotate the display in Display Settings easily... but the touchscreen doesn't rotate. All my inputs are registered on the exact inverse point on the screen from where i press. Anyone know what's causing this sort of thing? I assume it might have something to do with Linux drivers, since this issue didn't happen with Windows 11

[sleek ibex]

https://tenor.com/view/sweats-gif-25346666

[sinful cobalt]

mf on some $17 an hour im on $12 sgd per hour -20% for retirement fund

[feral stream]

How big is the one hard drive?

[stable beacon]

seems like the ram is totally fine i think last things to check are cpu and mb

[feral stream]

But how old are you?

[rocky citrus]

look into syncing the configs for xrandr and xinput if you haven't already

[feral stream]

Cause if you’re under 16, that’s pretty typical to get paid minimum wage

[stable beacon]

i might just have to platform switch to intel because of the damn ddr5 prices 💀

[ocean axle]

where is 12 min wage?

[feral stream]

Culver’s

Fast food in general

[stable beacon]

i thought it was minimum wage either way even if you have a degree now 💀

[ocean axle]

thats not what i asked

[modest flame]

I see that Cinnamon has auto-rotate by default so I'm wondering if I should've gone with that instead lmao

[feral stream]

Oh

[stable beacon]

last thing to check is cpu now

[feral stream]

Am I having a stroke why can’t I make sense of this?

[sinful cobalt]

im from singapore xd

[ocean axle]

ok, so, $12 isn't comparable for CoL

[gusty wagon]

Haiyaaaaa

[tulip sparrow]

I personaklly make less then $12k a year

[feral stream]

I make 8k

[sleek ibex]

Heatkiller and Bitspower

[rocky citrus]

I mean you can make it work for your current de, just will be some manual work

[tulip sparrow]

Less tahn 1K a month and yeah

[stable beacon]

in california you have to be like 14 to do anything other than actor and 16 to do anything you can actually find like a clerk, and 80% of everything wise has to be 18

[ocean axle]

i've since given all of that away

[tulip sparrow]

half goes towards rent alone let alone the rest of the bills and food

So yeah I get nothing for my self

[haughty juniper]

Just finished my custom PC build. Upgraded before the crazy prices

[stable beacon]

i tried finding a job but school burns me out so bad i realized especially in this market a job would kill me so i make a side hustle from selling photos

[haughty juniper]

I was waiting on umbrellas and fans and dragons to much where winds meet lol

[tulip sparrow]

money barely keeps me sheltered and alive

[gusty wagon]

I make anywhere between 38k to 52k

[feral stream]

That is a big anywhere

[stable beacon]

so far i've made around 300 but even that is tiring as hell and i have a lot to go through and even then it's a gamble to market my pictures

[ocean axle]

part-time?

[sleek ibex]

Heatkiller and Aquacomputer are those two brands you'll see at least one or two of their products in my builds

[gusty wagon]

Yep, 38k is baseline performance

[stable beacon]

i would've died if i wasn't with my dad

[sinful cobalt]

most of my money i literally earn from investments lmao

[ocean axle]

because thats under federal min-wage for full-time

[gusty wagon]

52k is probably one of the highest i've gotten so far

[stable beacon]

i'm living off of grant money from my family like presents and new year stuff

[feral stream]

For Singapore?

[tulip sparrow]

currently living with parents and I had like 8 people living in a 3b2b place and yeah

[feral stream]

cause Singapore doesn’t have a minimum wage

[tulip sparrow]

social sercurity

[stable beacon]

i have a gross value of like 3-4k from last year and a current balance of like 600

[gusty wagon]

Yep

[ocean axle]

im assuming US of A for Topken

[stable beacon]

especially here in california that wouldn't last me a month 💀

[tulip sparrow]

yup

SSI so yeah

[gusty wagon]

Our salaries are high, but our cars are expensive

They're a minimum of 200k usd every ten years

[feral stream]

I’m so dyslexic I read that as us. Of. A . not US of a.

And I’m American 🤣

[tulip sparrow]

I am unable to drive for starters so at least I don't have that payment hanging over me

[gusty wagon]

A G-wagon would likely be around 400-600k usd per ten years

[stable beacon]

i wouldn't even say silicon valley is the greatest place on earth to be, but it's the most expensive to live in the entire state and i'm assuming because of trillionaire tech companies in the west pretending everyone can afford jensen huang's leather jackets

[feral stream]

Rate this computer

[ocean axle]

my car payment is more than you gross, its really not fun

[stable beacon]

east side san jose is dirt cheap quality for mansion prices

[ocean axle]

gpu/10

[tulip sparrow]

When living with 8 people in 1 place I had less then $10 in my account by the end of the month

[feral stream]

it’s getting a white 9060 XT

[stable beacon]

i paid mine in cash because i don't see a reason to get anything especially if you're young just get a corolla for like 1,000 and in cash

[tulip sparrow]

So yeah it can take me years to afford anything for myself

[ocean axle]

you wont find a corolla here for $1,000

i also didn't want a shitbox

[stable beacon]

where are you lol

[gusty wagon]

you'd prolly have a better pay at a good restaurant that doesn't do tipping

[ocean axle]

SoCal

[clear canyon]

very nice, from that one angle, it looks like a 10/10 for looks but where da gpu

[stable beacon]

you better not drive a porsche or something

[tulip sparrow]

There currently isn't one LOL

[ocean axle]

i dont, but some of my colleagues do

[clear canyon]

lol

[tulip sparrow]

Also 14900KS system without a GPU

[stable beacon]

90% of people are slow npc drivers that think they need extra screens in their car that's worth 50k

[gusty wagon]

Rogue gives me a feeling she drives a mercedes or jaguar

[stable beacon]

used mercedes is dirt cheap 90s c class is the best kind

[ocean axle]

i had a relative shitbox, it spun the transmission's input bearing, and i didn't want to rebuild the transmission to fix that
later did anyway, and it sucked to do, as expected

[gusty wagon]

Nah, nah, a 2020's S-class

[haughty juniper]

Here is my setup.

[ocean axle]

hah, no

[ocean axle]

no, I have a Tesla

[haughty juniper]

no I had the glass break had to replace it its off lol I doubt the PC store mounted that monitor like that nice try 😛

[clear canyon]

what

[gusty wagon]

Oh, talking about broken glass

I've accidentally swept half a dozen ceramic/glass cups off my table

[clear canyon]

the run on sentence confuses me lol

[sleek ibex]

Is it a German car or is it from the land of the rising sun?

[stable beacon]

BMW

[gusty wagon]

I've not broken any pc chassis glasses yet

[feral stream]

I don’t really need GPUs for what I do for what so it really wasn’t a top priority I really just do video encoding which I can get by without a GPU and virtual machines

[stable beacon]

probably has a check engine light every weekend too

[ocean axle]

you're going to need to be more specific than that

[sleek ibex]

BMW 3 series?

[feral stream]

But my next purchases are gonna be GPUs

[stable beacon]

all bmw's drive the same, in the shop or with a light show 💀

[ocean axle]

yea, thats fair

[haughty juniper]

you dont have 7 kids 😛 lol

[ocean axle]

thats not much more specific than just "BMW" is

[gusty wagon]

I'm not intending on having kids

[modest flame]

@rocky citrus I got it working with a BASH script, thanks!

[gusty wagon]

Unless i settle down and he/she wants to adopt one

[sleek ibex]

BMW 3 Series E90?

[ocean axle]

No (not being pedantic on E90 vs E92)

[rocky citrus]

yeah np! pretty sure you found people with the same issue so ye, enjoyyyy

[ocean axle]

I'll take that as specific enough though, referring to that generation of BMW 3-series

[sleek ibex]

Oh? Am I in the ballpark?

[ocean axle]

Maybe?

[sleek ibex]

325i?

[ocean axle]

Yes

E46 325i

ZF 5HP-19 transmission

[sleek ibex]

Noice

[stable beacon]

it seems less paste-like than i remember also it looks white

one time i literally had a nightmare about bent pins like it was insane and gory

time to abduct my sisters cpu i guess

hopefully i can use that as a temporary cpu holder

and this is why it needs a proper tip

[clear canyon]

why did you add so much thermal paste

like holy hell thats alot

[heavy knot]

looking to update components on motherboard, and i noticed this in the BIOS section: Is this an app? or is this like a one-time use .exe?

[stable beacon]

the tip broke

[clear canyon]

you download it and run the exe, it will update your bios, if you do this you CANNOT turn off your pc during the update or you will brick your motherboard

[stable beacon]

i have a spatula so it's fine

[clear canyon]

take alot of it off, it will get everywhere

[stable beacon]

i just need to see if it will fix the slow post problem

[clear canyon]

what cpu is it

and unless you installed it wrong before hand, it wont help at all

[sharp ivy]

Wait how do you boot the recovery partition

I needa wipe all the info off this install of windows

[clear canyon]

by booting into recovery mode

[sharp ivy]

but how do I do that

[stable beacon]

this is a 5800x this one uses a 5600x normally

[sharp ivy]

I tried f8

[formal sonnet]

Are you planning to reinstall Windows on the laptop after?

[stable beacon]

same as before so it doesn't seem to be the CPU

[clear canyon]

go into windows and search "Reset this pc"

[stable beacon]

the motherboard might be broken now

i just have to wait and see

[sharp ivy]

No, I aquired it for free but it has admin programs on it and the bypass password trick for win 7 isn't working

[clear canyon]

did you update bios>?

[sharp ivy]

I don't have the password

[formal sonnet]

Then just do a fresh reinstall... Replace Windows 11 with whatever version you're trying to reinstall. https://www.howtogeek.com/874846/how-to-do-a-clean-install-of-windows-11/#:~:text=Option 1%3A Clean Install Windows 11 From a USB Drive

[clear canyon]

windows 7?

[stable beacon]

no i haven't but now i know it's not the cpu, ram, or ssd

[sharp ivy]

Maybe not windows 11, I don't think that's compatible with the Pentium D

[clear canyon]

there is a linux iso that you can install on a USB and load through ram that allows you to reset your passwords

[clear canyon]

ur ram is at stock speeds aswell btw

[sharp ivy]

Basically I just needa get rid of the old account on it so I can make a fresh one

[stable beacon]

i enabled xmp it does nothing

[sharp ivy]

I don't need any info off it

also I can't connect it to the internet

[clear canyon]

what is "MassStorageClass2011"?

[sharp ivy]

ah k

[stable beacon]

i ran it at stock for stability purposes and it booted perfectly fine

[clear canyon]

thats dumb

[stable beacon]

my SD card reader probably nothing else is connected atm

[clear canyon]

just run it at rated speeds

[near crag]

this will update the firmware of the ASMedia USB4 controller on your motherboard

you run it once and it does its thing

[stable beacon]

yeah it's the motherboard who's mad at me for crashing too much, and this is the warranty replacement motherboard

[stable beacon]

not when i can't even run at all

[clear canyon]

wdym

[stable beacon]

windows was acting weird too but that's just a side effect

[clear canyon]

what exactly is going on

[stable beacon]

we're talking about 2 seconds vs 2 minute startup

[heavy knot]

oh gotcha. in my mind it was like a firmware update that i've seen asus computers do

[stable beacon]

and post is taking 10x longer to show up

[clear canyon]

thats most likely your drive, what are you booting off of

[sharp ivy]

I'm assuming this wouldn't help

[stable beacon]

literally nothing right now i took out all my SSDs

[clear canyon]

thats for the bios

[sharp ivy]

yeah I though so

[stable beacon]

https://discord.com/channels/375436620578684930/1466634579967479919

[clear canyon]

what was you booting from before

[sharp ivy]

can I enter win 7 recovery mode without logging in

[stable beacon]

SN770

[clear canyon]

possibly, if you turn on and off the system as its loading up, it will force recovery mode since it will think the system is unstable

[sharp ivy]

oh wait that's recovery mode

I am very tired

[clear canyon]

yes

[sharp ivy]

I've already done that lol

can I wipe all the data off the install using another pc?

[clear canyon]

yes

[sharp ivy]

like I had it set up earlier like this

[clear canyon]

or you can just get a USB and install a new instance of windows on it

[stable beacon]

i took off the sd card thing and it seems more responsive, or that i installed a new cpu

[sharp ivy]

ah k do you know of some good guides that could help me with that

[clear canyon]

that also wipes it

[stable beacon]

i just need to put the boot drive in to be sure

[sharp ivy]

I'll go with the direct to drive method

[clear canyon]

how many things is loading on startup

[clear canyon]

the what

[clear canyon]

wdym

[sharp ivy]

ah nvm

[sharp ivy]

like plugging the HDD into another pc

ok I've done that

[clear canyon]

its easier to do the USB way but that works

[sharp ivy]

Ok now do I wipe the users folder?

[clear canyon]

lol, no

just watch a video on it

there is softwares that is needed

[sharp ivy]

I can't find a good one

[clear canyon]

how?

[sharp ivy]

ohhhhhhhh

thanks

alr I think I can do it then

[stable beacon]

just discord but it happens when i log in, anyways here's the results with the loaner 5800x

[clear canyon]

seems fine to me lol

[stable beacon]

well we know it might be the CPU then since that's the part I replaced

[clear canyon]

was it overheating?

[stable beacon]

i just have to put the 5600 back in and see the results

[stable beacon]

no definitely not in post

[clear canyon]

also, changing the cpu resets bios so you might had something wrong

[stable beacon]

cmos didn't clear it apparently but yeah maybe it was slow when i put it in

[clear canyon]

damn that sucks

[stable beacon]

no way to know until i reinstall

[clear canyon]

yeah it does sound like the cpu

:(

[stable beacon]

i just enabled xmp and that's it i had other settings on too but i haven't touched them in 2 weeks when i had to reinstall windows since the network things were corrupted and linux networking was fine

[clear canyon]

yeah, if the new cpu is causing issues too, try updating the bios

[sharp ivy]

Nvm I found the fun f8 menu

👍

wait which one of these do I choose

the blanked out one says directory services restore mode

[violet briar]

https://www.gamestop.com/pc-gaming/pc-components/cpu/products/amd-ryzen-7-5800x3d-processor-8-core-16-threads-up-to-4.5-ghz-am4/341864.html

i thought they didnt make 5800x3d anymore

that seems decent

[sharp ivy]

alr I'm booting safe mode

[stable beacon]

well this is new

there's a chance i might have a short but idk

i tested the power switch pins directly, so it's not the button that's the problem

it might be i put 91 iso around it but im not sure

the entire area is dry now though

i'll try to see if it turns on without the cooler for a second

nope

i reseated and nothing

apparently i discovered my CPU cable wasn't seated in all the way

i'm surprised i haven't caught that in months

that still didn't fix anything though

do i have a short at all

pins look fine but might have paste

guys i might actually be cooked help

[torpid reef]

What are some reasonably priced ARGB fans 120-140mm with good performance? Preferably in packs of 3-5.

[ivory mountain]

Arctic p12 and p14 pros

[stable beacon]

i assume this is all i really need to get the motherboard to try to post but i'm not getting anything from the power button

[fringe prairie]

quite the deal if you can pick it up

[stable beacon]

bridging the pins doesn't work either i tried reset which doesn't exist as a button on my case

[torpid reef]

The ARCTIC P12 Pro A-RGB White for $30/3-pack seems like a sweet spot for me. Thanks.

[warm anvil]

anyone got a minamalist waybar theme that shows open apps🙏
for top of the screen

[torpid reef]

Is the EZDIY-FAB ARGB PWM hub anything to have? I'll have 8 ARGB fans that needs controlling. Scared of the 4.1 ⭐ on Amazon.

[stable beacon]

the psu does work so idk why it's not trying to turn on

ok nvm i got it

i might not have bridged them correctly but i'm getting a power on response

i've been at this for 6 hours my pc started fucking up around 5 and it's 11 💀

[azure topaz]

sometimes its good to take a break and refresh yourself and not kill something by frantically testing things

[stable beacon]

i finally get to have dinner now 😮‍💨

it took a while since it had to reregister the cpu but it's not hanging in post anymore

[quasi field]

is this a good score?

https://browser.geekbench.com/opencl-benchmarks

[stable beacon]

to think all that instability was caused by a loose cpu power connection 💀

[quasi field]

oop

[wise cloud]

airpods 2 pro vs 4 with ANC?

[quasi field]

pros 100% better

ive tried the 4s they sound more dull compared to the pros cause you don't have the same seal on the ear also anc can only do so much when it doesn't have a tip!

[stable beacon]

its doing ok in prime95 surprisingly or maybe because its at base

[quasi field]

it gets worse trust

[tidal geyser]

Use hwinfo

[limpid current]

hardware unboxed recommended https://de.msi.com/Monitor/MPG-274URDFWDE-E16M but there are reports of MSI displays dying left and right, not sure if I should sink money into that

from what I've read it depends on the panel supplier, but I can't find any info on that

[tidal geyser]

I have had 3 people in the past month asking why their vrms are hotter than hell but touching am it's fine

[stable beacon]

whats the difference

[stable beacon]

why would they touch them in the first place 💀

i mean there's "the cpu is at 99c but the cooler is ice cold" type shit

[tidal geyser]

It does not report false values

[tidal geyser]

It's a big metal block why not

Also like you said a actual issue like that is not impossible

[plush wren]

[mint umbra]

Is it possible to use mac os without buying a Mac on its own

[tidal geyser]

Yes but I would not

Also dam you would need to buy another amd GPU that being like a Rx 6900 xt

And maybe intel cpu

[plush wren]

macintosh

[stable beacon]

maxes out at 85c on prime95 small ffts

[tidal geyser]

You also need a 11th gen cpu by the look of it

And ofc all this is going to waste in a year or so once apple finally stops supporting x86

[cold skiff]

💀

[mint umbra]

Why

I already have amd GPU

[stable beacon]

i'll buy the 6900 xt off you

[tidal geyser]

since its the last gpu to be supported??

[mint umbra]

I see

[stable beacon]

8gb vram is really bringing me down

[tidal geyser]

he has a 7900 XTX

[mint umbra]

I thought I could try dual boot mac os lmao

[stable beacon]

plus i need a 5950x for my editing work apparently it uses more cores than i thought i'd need

[mint umbra]

As mac os seems simple enough for me lol

[tidal geyser]

do whatever flavor linux distro that tries to imitate it as much as possible, support should be better on linux vs mac how easy it is for you to learn i dono

[stable beacon]

might as well get a 9070 xt with that money although $600 9070 xt's have disappeared from the micro center oasis 😭

[mint umbra]

Why would I get a 9070xt

[stable beacon]

either way i think i need a laptop more than anything else so i can work on my photos while traveling

[hexed tapir]

i feel sorry for him no fsr4

[tidal geyser]

fp8 fsr4

[mint umbra]

Fsr sucks

[stable beacon]

i was talking about me

[mint umbra]

Oh lol mb

[tidal geyser]

and you are too scared to use optiscaler to even try out fsr4

[stable beacon]

they're basically the same thing but one has rt

[tidal geyser]

rx 6400 has rt

[mint umbra]

Most times I've used fsr like blurry edges like hair and stuff

[tidal geyser]

yes because you are using fsr 3.1 at best

[stable beacon]

i'm here stuck with using extra low graphics although assetto corsa evo is still in early access

[tidal geyser]

the 9070 is also a lot more efficent

[mint umbra]

Last used fsr on black myth wukong

[tidal geyser]

yes thats 3.1

[hexed tapir]

mine was "$441.93"

[mint umbra]

Dlss just seems alot better

[stable beacon]

at the same time kunos is codeveloping a rally game and that one's already more optimized despite being newer

[mint umbra]

I see more ppl hyping up dlss than fsr4

[tidal geyser]

no shit when you do not even wanna try out the shit made to actually compete

[stable beacon]

1. that's already 600, 2) how the hell do you get those rebates

[tidal geyser]

well yea fsr4 is sitting around dlss 3.5 to 4 levels

[mint umbra]

I don't see many ppl even talk about fsr

[hexed tapir]

amazon reward points xD

[mint umbra]

Why are they always a step behind

[tidal geyser]

since amd like money

[tidal geyser]

what does amd make

what does nvidia make

[stable beacon]

my dad uses prime every week and he always says something about "it's too expensive"

[tidal geyser]

im talking company wide

[mint umbra]

Both make GPUs and ai

Nvda just don't make CPUs

[tidal geyser]

i mean as a whole

[tidal geyser]

technically they do now but to not shatter my point, nvidia only got gpus

[stable beacon]

they do, nintendo consoles have nvidia cpus

[tidal geyser]

gpus has been nvidias only focus

[mint umbra]

And ai

[tidal geyser]

well yea dlss

[stable beacon]

although nintendo consoles almost always have aged hardware like the switch gpu is a modded 750 ti i think

[rocky citrus]

you are a cat

[stable beacon]

i don't know about the switch 2 but i'm not buying anything from them until they fix their shit and i can actually have money to enjoy them

[hexed tapir]

its only $120 a year you get the fast free shipping amazon video and amazon music

[ebon marlin]

Whatever is cheaper

[left trellis]

I own both

[fallow bluff]

So... I was wondering if anyone has tried making a VAIO PC model PCV-MX3GKL5 into a modern stealth PC build?

[ebon marlin]

Techpowerup should have indepth benchmarks for both drives

[left trellis]

I shall check then ty

[ebon marlin]

Or was it toms hardware

Worthwhile to check both either way

[fallow bluff]

If you are wondering what I meant, it''s this:

[pure trellis]

Oh, people seriously discussed usb c as high voltage chargers

[random gyro]

lazy game reviews?

[ornate harbor]

That looks old and modern at the same time

[fallow bluff]

Yep

[random gyro]

knew it ^^

[fallow bluff]

It's a literal media player, radio, and entertainment system combined with a PC.

[random gyro]

id be set for life if i used one of those as my main desktop

[ornate harbor]

I think thats older then me

[fallow bluff]

I wonder if we could just replace the old components with modern PC parts and make it into a pseudo-modern stealth pc with additional capabilities.

[random gyro]

it is possible, (maybe)

[pure trellis]

So,slipe build

Also, depending on the definition of old,the case can be upgrade from modern cases

[random gyro]

you do need to make sure there is enough space for parts like a graphics card, better power supply, and motherboard

[torpid sinew]

oh, mighty crucial ..

[solar moat]

RIP 4x16GB in 1 pc sounds so bad

[cold skiff]

Probably DDR4

[heavy sandal]

No

I will admit it did suck having to use default speeds

[solar moat]

so ddr5 3600

[heavy sandal]

Yeah pretty much

[solar moat]

ddr4 wins 😢

My pc would crash if i tried to use expo

Btw the fans are temporary

Guys I’m finally getting a new monitor soon

This one

[sour storm]

annoyed about my mousemat being so dirty :c

[craggy cove]

wash it

[tidal geyser]

i did that not long ago and it looks so good

[sour storm]

how? it keeps getting dirty

[tidal geyser]

i would not wash a mousemat more than like 10 ish times in the washing machine

[frail sequoia]

Is there any better 1440p monitors for roughly the same price?

[tidal geyser]

wash it when it gets too dirty

[frail sequoia]

Or is that one good

[craggy cove]

i got 9 more cycles left ig

[craggy cove]

not gonna clean my room cause it will get dirty again yk

9000 mah battery, flagship-ish chipset... 400$ phone

[sour storm]

the diffrence is the room doesnt get dirty within a day or tow...or i have just been cleaning the mouse mat wrong but like idk what the proper way to clean it

[craggy cove]

290$ if you live in china!

[craggy cove]

washing machine or lightly scrub with some soap

i had some weirdish stains left after it dried but my mouse glides better now

[sour storm]

does fairy work?

[craggy cove]

yeah fairy is good

[sour storm]

i learned last year it's pronounced fairy as in the magic creature

it makes it like new

You could also just R&D the OS rather than just slap random components together, Android has been giving manufacturers that option for ages

[craggy cove]

now that i think about it my mom says it the exact same way

[sour storm]

that's how it's pronounced in the ads here

[gaunt spade]

270$ if your china citizen
325$ to import

[craggy cove]

[eternal cloak]

Redmi can have 20,000mah and it's still barely gonna last a day keek

[craggy cove]

how is it with the regional os

[bold olive]

legit my monitor rebranded but with hdr10 instead

[gaunt spade]

what

[sour storm]

the funny lnaguage

[craggy cove]

like are there any problems with the os being chinese

or can you just set it to english and forget

[gaunt spade]

i dont believe so i think you can change it

im not in china i just import alot of things so i just checked

[eternal cloak]

You can't, no

[frail sequoia]

Idk if the monitor is good or not tho

[gaunt spade]

if your chinese you get 15% discount

1869 yuan

[eternal cloak]

Due to Chinese "security regulations", they alter the OS quite a bit

[gaunt spade]

is that on china versions

cuz some phones have china version and normal but some only have 1 version

[craggy cove]

sometimes you can flash it to the global os

[gaunt spade]

anyone know whatsup with oneplus

havent watched anything yet

[gaunt spade]

yes that

some have chinese versions

[eternal cloak]

Aye, but not many people are gonna do that lol

[gaunt spade]

i would do that

[eternal cloak]

Hence why the seller offers it to do for you to begin with

[gaunt spade]

to import and sell for more

[craggy cove]

most of the time you cant but id do it

[eternal cloak]

Then you're automatically within the 1% of the 1%

[craggy cove]

probably cause it takes more effort for them

Ping me then

Why so many these EVs use self driving

Feel like self driving is too sus

Could never trust a computer with my life

[boreal tiger]

but its totally optional

[mint umbra]

The more ppl use it the less safe it would be on road

Atleast to me

[boreal tiger]

well there is also another prespective

computers cant drive while they are drunk

they dont sleep

the yreact faster

[cosmic idol]

You do all the time when you fly in planes though 🤔

[mint umbra]

React faster lmao doubt

I've seen tests were these self driving cards run into kids lmao

[cosmic idol]

(Not saying a cars self driving is the same level as a plane’s autopilot tho lmao)

[frail sequoia]

I need monitor advice, is this worth the money?

https://amzn.eu/d/cp8GlV6

[boreal tiger]

have you seen those volvo trucks stoping the truck as soon as it dettects obstruction or children sure it has problems but its not bad

[mint umbra]

I feel way more safe with a human driving that a computer

[boreal tiger]

btw have you drove a tesla

[cosmic idol]

It’s pretty good value, and on paper it looks pretty good

[mint umbra]

Why would I own a Tesla

The range is shit in cold temperatures

[cosmic idol]

They never said own
Just drive

[mint umbra]

If I didn't own one why would I have driven one

I'm not gunna ask strangers to drive their car

[gaunt spade]

anyone know a good app to mirror phone screen to pc

[frail sequoia]

I have a 6600xt and ik it’s a 1440p monitor but the games I play that are the most intensive are assetto corsa and cs2 so I should be fine

[mint umbra]

And Tesla would prob be last ev I'd be interested in

[frail sequoia]

Google it

[boreal tiger]

dont you have friends family members cousins etc

[cosmic idol]

Because sometimes that happens..?
I drive my mums car primarily
But I’ve driven a Subaru outback
A Honda civic
A Toyota Corolla
And I’ve been in a Tesla before too…

[gaunt spade]

[mint umbra]

Sorry my family isn't rich

[cosmic idol]

Look long story short I think the concern about self driving cars rn is pretty valid
Like - they have ages to go for me to be comfortably sat in the back and not worried

[boreal tiger]

ok so you havent owned one havnt driven one and you still you hate how?

[frail sequoia]

My first car when I turn 17 is gonna be a old civic si or a Peugeot 206 (I am 16 and need to be 17 to get a license in Scotland)

[mint umbra]

I've seen videos and the build quality for the price your paying is awful

[cosmic idol]

Mine will be whatever is good for the price lmao
Im not set on a make or model so I’ll see what happens

[boreal tiger]

which one do you like civic or peugeot

[cosmic idol]

My first motorbike - I’d love it to be the Honda cb500fa

[mint umbra]

I drive a Corolla

[frail sequoia]

I just looked on auto trader for the cheaper cars below £2.5k

[cosmic idol]

Fair enough

[frail sequoia]

Both, I can’t buy any tho cause I’m 16

[mint umbra]

I would rather walk then get into a vehicle that uses self driving

[cosmic idol]

I’ve driven a 2005 manual corolla
Things good fun ngl

[boreal tiger]

you can buy it you cant drive it

[tidal geyser]

its why self driving cars will not let you?

even the ones that are "full" self driving check if you have your eyes on the road

[mint umbra]

I've seen videos of a mf sleeping while the car is driving

[frail sequoia]

Not yet, cause I need to be 17 to get a license in Scotland

Js need to wait till August 30th

[tidal geyser]

yeeeaa they have ways to bypass it aka human fault if it crashes

[boreal tiger]

still you CAN BUY it

[mint umbra]

And I've seen videos with cars driving and no one is in driver seat

[tidal geyser]

i see self driving more as even better cruise control

[cosmic idol]

Ngl this mindset kinda silly lowkey
Yes there is risks there right now, but people are constantly trying to improve that, and im sure countries will implement more safety standards as time goes on sooooo

[frail sequoia]

No I can’t, I don’t have a job yet

[mint umbra]

I'm against self driving should always be a human driving

[boreal tiger]

you dont need a job you need money

[cosmic idol]

Valid concern if you’re basing it off of current technology
Silly to rule out the future

[mint umbra]

Can't trust a computer with life and death situation

[tidal geyser]

people said the same thing about cars

[cosmic idol]

What about plane autopilot..?

[tidal geyser]

i would never use a metal beast over my trusty horse

[mint umbra]

What if it has a glitch and kills someone who's liable if they aren't even one driving

[tidal geyser]

you mean what happened?

[cosmic idol]

I ain’t even gonna argue
Shits like talking to a brick wall

[tidal geyser]

also i think it was ruled as the guy speeding up

[mint umbra]

With people you still ones in control

Over self driving

A computer is driving for you

[tidal geyser]

most accidents are due to human error

[boreal tiger]

why you refusing to evolve ?

[mint umbra]

Evolve ?

[tidal geyser]

a computer never gets tiered can never get sick, can never feel self ending or whatever

[mint umbra]

Not everything needs to run by some ai shit

[tidal geyser]

people said the same kinda things back when we used horses to move around

[cosmic idol]

Honestly
Humans are even more stupid

A computer won’t try and speed to impress someone
A computer won’t drink drive
A computer with the right sensors and software will be able to go faster, react quicker, and drive with more precision

I get your concern for it now, but ruling it out is just simply silly, and just shows lack of perspective imo.

[boreal tiger]

metaphorically

[mint umbra]

You're still the one in control

[tidal geyser]

a computer can also talk with any other compatible computer around it

[mint umbra]

When it comes to operating machinery that has ppls lives at risk should always be human

[tidal geyser]

you can see traffic in real time and speed up or slow down to never create a jam

[boreal tiger]

it might also end inssurance compnies hopefully

[tidal geyser]

so all medical factories should be human?

[cosmic idol]

Literally
I saw a clip of what it could be like when they’re all self driving
Shit is SO much more efficient

[mint umbra]

Yes

[ionic peak]

280 could do next month

[tidal geyser]

you are insane

[frail sequoia]

And I need a job to get money

[torpid sinew]

I like how your focus is on that, instead of the old crucial logo, or the SDR ram sticks that they are.
The memory chip seem micron, but I cant tell.

[tidal geyser]

have you just not heard of bacteria

[ionic peak]

Insane? Haha hahaha haha he is

[thin plover]

if a ball rolls out on the street from in between parked cars an ai model might just swerve around to avoid it but a human could anticipate that

[mint umbra]

No I don't think anything with ppls lives at risk should involve ai

[thin plover]

but in general humans are more stupid in traffic

[tidal geyser]

it looks so scary but there are so so so so many benefits

[mint umbra]

Ive seen tests of self-driving where they drive right through the dummy

No thanks

[tidal geyser]

that is so idiotic, most AI is just pattern recognition

[boreal tiger]

which bacteria

[thin plover]

I've seen enough traffic accidents where people hit each other

[cosmic idol]

Im sure there’ll be future features
With cameras to observe potential hazards to anticipate them lol

[cosmic idol]

https://tenor.com/view/speak-gif-9578947274896178319

[tidal geyser]

Escherichia coli

[thin plover]

yeah but it takes ages to learn all the very specific scenarios

[mint umbra]

A computer doesn't care if an action is dangerous or not cuz it's not a risk of losing its life

[cosmic idol]

honestly with how ai models are tracking I wouldn’t say that
