[bold olive]

right click your gpu, properties

[oblique jay]

Says it needs to be enabled

[bold olive]

enable

that's your problem right there 😭

[oblique jay]

there we go...

[bold olive]

ooh

[oblique jay]

Thank you... LOL

[bold olive]

show me the ultrawide

[oblique jay]

Why the fuck does it even do that? That's quite weird...

[bold olive]

it'll be SO good in my portfolio

[bold olive]

something disabled it, im not entirely sure but my guess is that when it was installed, the basic display driver was still running and didn't budge to the amd driver, hence it may disable

[ivory mountain]

just use DDU

[bold olive]

hell yeah

[oblique jay]

I did 🥲

[ivory mountain]

fuck i hate when discord shows a message but its from a while ago

[bold olive]

he did

[oblique jay]

It was just a random i ssue that started occuring, for no reason.

[bold olive]

it was amd with shitty drivers still

[tidal geyser]

i can see someone has a qd oled

[ivory mountain]

oh shit my fault discord started me from right here 😭

[oblique jay]

Yeah its sweet as. Absolutely love it

[ivory mountain]

im a little behind

[oblique jay]

Pretty sure I had the issue before I was even on 26.1.1

Unless it auto updated and thats why it was so shit

[tidal geyser]

im at the latest

[ivory mountain]

AAA ep 4 its time

[dusk patio]

I was using a 6 month old driver until recently when Marvel Rivals started crashing

[bold olive]

me who is the only ips user in this conversation and the only nvidia daily driver:

[tidal geyser]

and i got 1.5 OLED laptops

[warm anvil]

https://tenor.com/view/ricardo-smile-dance-gif-16914659

[bold olive]

to be fair i do have an OLED screen

[tidal geyser]

0.5 due to missing said OLED panel but using my desktop qd oled panel

[bold olive]

just on the phone

(the one prone to get a green line on samsung phones)

[warm anvil]

God Skypeia is so good

[ivory mountain]

the one piece arc?

[warm anvil]

Yeah I'm rewatching since the shows on a break

[tidal geyser]

oh yea i got a OLED phone too ofc

[warm anvil]

I'm on the finale with luffy vs Enel rn

[ivory mountain]

i couldnt get into one piece even after 350 episodes

[tidal geyser]

now i just need a OLED tablet and i get jackpot

[warm anvil]

Probably just not for you

I've always loved one piece

Even arlong park is goated and over hated

[ivory mountain]

its more of a show u grow up with to truly enjoy

like me and dragon ball

[pale flint]

oled

[warm anvil]

True

It has a lot of political themes it honestly a great show

[bold olive]

how do you get a phone without amoled

[tidal geyser]

with smol amount of money

most super budget phones are still lcd

[warm anvil]

I love one pieces foreshadowing

Everyone on Skypeia calling Luffy a god

[bold olive]

literally a lot of manufacturers use amoled

how

watch the 50 super series launch after GTA 6

[tidal geyser]

yes?

still lcd but wow OLED is cheap

[oblique jay]

Not sure if this tells anything else @bold olive, just booted up spotify and started using the pc but freezed and had a loud buzzing noise, unfroze for a split second and did it again.

Not sure if it is a gpu issue overall

Still working for now, but thats the same shit I kept getting before I did DDU last week or whenever it was

[ebon marlin]

why is pal using a super budget phone in the big 2026

I have a Oneplus 13R which cost me 275€ brand new in an unopened box

also just ordered a Realme GT 7 for 300€ as an upgrade for it's insane battery

[jovial swan]

is that komplett?

[trim schooner]

should i enable 10 bit pixel layout on the adrenaline software and disable HDR?

[tidal geyser]

yup

[trim schooner]

@tidal geyser ?

[jovial swan]

knew it! easy to see from the font of the currency

[tidal geyser]

1000mah more is nice but my 13r lasts way longer than i need it too

[tidal geyser]

no

[trim schooner]

so should I enable HDR

[tidal geyser]

clearly you have issues with hdr

[plain cypress]

If they have issues with HDR, definitely enable it 👍

[warm anvil]

[trim schooner]

yes

my friend told me HDR enabled looks ass on OLED panels

[tidal geyser]

fine on mine

[ebon marlin]

according to GSM's battery life tests it lasts 5 hours more which is nice to have

way more effiecent chip inside it

[tidal geyser]

over the 20 you already got?

[ebon marlin]

me no get 20

[frigid blade]

if its not calibrated i think

on the one my friend set up made everything grey

[tidal geyser]

13r is claimed to be 20hrs video vs the gt 7s 26

[ebon marlin]

I own an OLED monitor and HDR is just insane

[warm anvil]

Chat hyprland or niri

[tidal geyser]

meh you use your money however ye please

[warm anvil]

I'm considering swapping to one of them

[tidal geyser]

what is the most prone to breaking

[ebon marlin]

i'm eitherway getting my money back for what I paíd for the 13R

[rose stream]

Do you really want the tiling though as your main thing?

[ebon marlin]

i even make extra money from it

[warm anvil]

Not really but it looks cool🤷

[tidal geyser]

i just use my phones until they either lose software support or break

[ebon marlin]

i went through like 3-4 different phones in one month last year

[tidal geyser]

tis why i am so careful about phones sadly 6 months aint the amount of time a phone is meant to last

[warm anvil]

How can u afford that😭

[clear sorrel]

just bought a pixel 10 pro a while ago. Trying really hard to not do anything to it

[warm anvil]

I've been using my current phone for 3 ish years

[tidal geyser]

repairer

[warm anvil]

Google pixel 6a

[ebon marlin]

wait no that wasn't last year that was 2 years ago

[mint umbra]

Depends on panel tbh

[trim schooner]

?

[trim schooner]

well for me when i enable it on windows its really buggy

[ebon marlin]

not a thing with OLED

[rose stream]

I recommend ONLY trying it, preferably in a VM installation or such, before getting it full time, just so you don't break something if you try to go back to a traditional desktop afterwards.

[mint umbra]

I feel like hdr for alot of games isnt calibrated correctly

[tidal geyser]

meh linux VM on linux should be pretty usable

[trim schooner]

the brightness flashes, theres glitchy looking artifacts on the screen

[tidal geyser]

do not use HDR

[mint umbra]

Hdr alot better for like movies

[rose stream]

Like really tiling managers are very niche and not for just anybody, even amongst regular Linux users.

[tidal geyser]

im just gonna say its his DSC having a stroke

[warm anvil]

Fair

[trim schooner]

any alterrnatives?

[warm anvil]

Once I finally buy my PC God knows when I'll probably just fuck around on my laptop

Hot take I really hate gnome

[tidal geyser]

you do not need HDR

[rose stream]

I'm kinda indifferent to it.

[trim schooner]

what was HDR originally made for anyways?

[warm anvil]

The ui just feels weird to me

It feels too much like an iPad, stock

If u personalize it it can look good yes but I think how it looks on installation is important cause a lot of people never customize their desktop

[frigid blade]

if they care how it looks they will customize it

[warm anvil]

That's true

The fat sidebar on the left just takes up so much room

[frigid blade]

i turned my ubuntu into wubuntu when i was messing around with it

[tidal geyser]

High Dynamic Range (HDR) was originally developed to overcome the limitations of photographic film and early digital sensors, which could not capture the full range of light and shadow present in a real-world scene. Its core purpose was to allow cameras to record more details in both extremely bright highlights and deep shadows simultaneously, better mimicking human vision.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_dynamic_range
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-dynamic-range_rendering

[warm anvil]

I swapped from Ubuntu cinnamon to cachy

[tidal geyser]

i went from ubuntu to mint to cachy

[warm anvil]

Feels cursed

This isn't windows

[trim schooner]

isnt that what oled displays basically do?

i mean theres obv a difference i notice when using HDR

[clear sorrel]

I would rather do something unique that isn't trying to replicate Windows, because it might rub off as a cheaper copy in my mind

[thin plover]

you could probably fool someone's grandma with this

[frigid blade]

i was just messing around if youre talking about me

[tidal geyser]

winblow 11, trust me its really made by micronsofty

[tidal geyser]

turn off HDR

[clear sorrel]

nah, just spraying my words all over. I'm not really a linux user to begin with, so I can't judge!

[warm anvil]

I made my Linux look like windows 7 for like a day

The I realized it didn't really look that good

[trim schooner]

i did

[tidal geyser]

keep it off and do not worry about it

[trim schooner]

slight difference ig

[warm anvil]

I woke up to this yesterday

[trim schooner]

ok

[trim schooner]

yooo we have the same wallpaper twin

[thin plover]

I made a ui-less Ubuntu homeserver with absolutely 0 knowledge on how Ubuntu, or any Linux distro for that matter, works

[warm anvil]

Fr?

[rose stream]

Honestly fair.

[trim schooner]

tuff

[warm anvil]

I love the website that has this wallpaper

[trim schooner]

wallpaper engine?

[warm anvil]

Alpha coders

[warm anvil]

Basically just static wallpapers stolen from wallpaper engine

[left dove]

looks like some rainmeter shit

[tidal geyser]

seen someone brick their install due to wallpaper engine

[warm anvil]

It's just waybar with cavasik and Cairo dock

[tidal geyser]

my back is hurting, im becoming old

[warm anvil]

Unc

[warm anvil]

😭

How

[tidal geyser]

all i know was he downloaded some plugin and rebooted i think it was and his OS was no more

[warm anvil]

Saw a tiktok of a dude saying his Linux wasnt working and his kernel was just gone

[tidal geyser]

cant do that on windows

[warm anvil]

Linux tiktoks actually gotta be satire

I just saw some dude say it took him 4 hours to install Linux mint

[swift stream]

thinking about getting this aio, it also comes with system hub

[tidal geyser]

ok?

[tidal geyser]

that looks like a REALLY high end laptop

[warm anvil]

Yeah true

[fringe prairie]

g14 on mint sybau 🥀

[tidal geyser]

lenovo yoga slim 7 14akp10 best laptop

[fringe prairie]

unironically cachy is probably the best to use on a zephyrus because a lot of the asus linux stuff is already included

was incredibly easy to setup on my g15

[tidal geyser]

one of the main founders works with the asus team

[drifting urchin]

so, i heard BS rumors via youtube that apparently, the price of copper went up by 50%, so now, this means that because the coolers are made of copper, the price of gpu again goes up

i wonder if its just rage bait

[tidal geyser]

not a lot of copper in coolers mate

[warm anvil]

Bios on my asus laptop genuinely sucks

Can't do anything on it yo😭

[fringe prairie]

well that’s like most laptops lol

[tidal geyser]

at least it looks nice

[frigid blade]

good

[warm anvil]

❌

[tidal geyser]

wonder how well smokless works on those

[frigid blade]

the majority of people who use laptops shouldnt be touching the settings anyway

[fringe prairie]

smokeless umaf and stuff does exist but eh

[warm anvil]

I'm just a brokie😭

[fringe prairie]

i tried ram oc, never touched it again

[tidal geyser]

worked pretty well on my legion

[frigid blade]

patch the bios (if you dont mind accidentally bricking it), i did that on my dell latitude e7440 to unlock voltage control so i could undervolt

[tidal geyser]

also funny thing, the guy who bought my funky legion that i sold as broken and listed as funky wants a refund due to it acting funky

[warm anvil]

Bricking it isn't ideal

[tidal geyser]

ch341a

[frigid blade]

worth the gains on a cheap laptop imo

[tidal geyser]

just to light the VRM on fire

[frigid blade]

well, in this case power effficiency gains

[tidal geyser]

or a capactior

[frigid blade]

im talking about undervolting

[tidal geyser]

mobile stuff tends to already be trying to do that

and here is the buyer of muh laptop complaining

[ebon marlin]

that's neat even though I don't own a HP Omen laptop

don't think anyone else does this

[tidal geyser]

considering this is his profile, aka selling shitty laptops for way way way way more than they are worth very much deserved

[ebon marlin]

lenovo legion? what specs and how much did you sell it for

[tidal geyser]

5600h 3060m

4000nok so like 400USD ish

they go for closer to 2x here

[ebon marlin]

same as my girlfriends laptop

I paid like 350€ for it I think

[warm anvil]

I wanna buy a better laptop but if I keep saving for the pc it'll be smarter

I have like 600 bucks rn

[ebon marlin]

Legion 5 I'm assuming

[tidal geyser]

mine yes

[ebon marlin]

just do what I did and get a Lenovo Loq with a i5 12450hx and 2050 with 32gb ddr5 for 200€

[ebon marlin]

yeah exact same laptop as the one I got for my girlfriend then

very neat laptop

[warm anvil]

Goddamn I paid more for my shitty laptop

[tidal geyser]

im using a lenovo yoga slim 7 14akp10 with the ryzen ai 7 350 and WOW ram makes a difference feels smoother than my desktop, also replaced my desktop and doing the OCCT for the parts before i list it

[tidal geyser]

it is when spotify and discord work on it yea

and windows and anticheat on windows

[warm anvil]

I remember before I swapped to Linux I thought like actually zero games with an anti cheat worked😭

No matter how good it is

[tidal geyser]

at least 52 fully support it

it just runs the anti cheat in user level

[ebon marlin]

Alot of the most popular online multiplayer games still don't have Linux support

[tidal geyser]

so if your cpu is fucking with kernal stuff no worries

[warm anvil]

Valve is my favourite giant company

For Linux support

[tidal geyser]

only 2 or 3 i can see most people complaining about

[warm anvil]

Only ones I can think of are Valorant roblox and fortnite?

[tidal geyser]

steam deck might gain support but not linux as a whole

[warm anvil]

U can just use sober tho for roblox

[tidal geyser]

roblox?

[warm anvil]

Gotta use a third party client for it to work

[tidal geyser]

BF6 i know at least fortnite maybe and probs valo too

[tidal geyser]

same case for epic

or even gog

[warm anvil]

Cod too?

[tidal geyser]

no

[warm anvil]

Oh so cod does work on Linux, cool

[tidal geyser]

what BF6 is only this much

[gritty panther]

my only linux device

[warm anvil]

Counter strike source is kinda crazy optimized

[gritty panther]

been thinking to myself I dont need it anymore and I can sell it but I'm having a hard time letting go

[warm anvil]

Just finished rewatching Skypeia

[tidal geyser]

this is kinda cool

[gritty panther]

skypeia was alright right? people are too critical lol

[tidal geyser]

very noice

[tidal geyser]

close to 200

[warm anvil]

I love Skypeia but people either love or hate it

[gritty panther]

I made the conclusion that the internet is weird. if I like it, I like it. that's what matters lol

[warm anvil]

True

[gritty panther]

there was this new anime that I enjoyed so much. from country bumpkin to master swordsman whatever it's title. I was impressed with fight scenes and actually enjoyed it but I started reading comments and people were hating on it?

[solemn pewter]

What do you guys think... Magic keyboard for iPad, or Bluetooth keyboard for z fold? I already have the devices, just not the keyboards.

[gritty panther]

i dont get it lol

there was a lot of CGI but it was ok to me. people were hating on it still

[warm anvil]

It's all about opinion

People on the internet hate for no reason

[gritty panther]

yep. people that like it probably dont go out of there way to say it too

[warm anvil]

True

[fringe prairie]

i would hope it is. released in 2004

[gritty panther]

I dont play valorant but whenever I try it I get 4 digits fps when I look up

I feel like that game runs on a potato lol

[warm anvil]

I mean I can run it on high graphics without a GPU and it looks pretty good

[fringe prairie]

indeed it does

[warm anvil]

I think the next arc is ennies lobby?

[tidal geyser]

i can play minecraft at 500 fps on a 12700h igpu

[warm anvil]

I get like 20fps on val xd

[tidal geyser]

4 year old cpu intel igpu doing 500 fps

[tidal geyser]

oh yea true you have a i3 10th gen smn right

something 2 core at least

[warm anvil]

I got like 150fps on hypixel with optimizing mods

[warm anvil]

Yeah

[gritty panther]

lol

[warm anvil]

I31005g1

[tidal geyser]

did you get that laptop that was meant to be given to you

[gritty panther]

I bought minecraft recently. couldnt get rtx to work

ive never played the game. maybe I should play it without the RT first lol

[warm anvil]

My friend didn't ask his mum😭

So no

[tidal geyser]

rip

[warm anvil]

It was good too but my friend didn't even know

Cause he dual booted for some reason

[tidal geyser]

its RT also only bedrock had native RT the rest are shaders

[warm anvil]

By good I mean better than my current laptop, still an igpu

[dusk patio]

The got rid of the old RTX mode and replaced it with "Vibrant Visuals" for Bedrock

[gritty panther]

Im not an idiot. can you point me to the right direction. like a guide or video I can follow. I will really appreciate it

I want to try minecraft. I honestly feel like I missed a lot ignoring this game many moons ago

[warm anvil]

I hope to one day be like sim where I can make laptop towers xd

[gritty panther]

there was some guides that I googled but I wan't comfortable downloading files out of their website

[dusk patio]

I think you still might be able to get the RT working on Bedrock, but you'll need to download a resource pack

[gritty panther]

if it's reocmmended by someone I would be more confident lol

[warm anvil]

Anyways I think I'm on ennies lobby now

[gritty panther]

Enjoy.

[dusk patio]

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/guides/minecraft-rtx-texturing-guide

[warm anvil]

Nvm it's water 7

Then ennies lobby later in that arc

Coolio

[gritty panther]

ty so much Love you

nvm I read it. different thing

still cool tho

[dusk patio]

IIRC I used a resource pack called "Vanilla RTX"

[warm anvil]

Chat watch or skip filler

[gritty panther]

I saw that! hmm

Ill try it .thanks again

[gritty panther]

skip

😆

[warm anvil]

Same

Wow animation from Skypeia and water 7 is a big jump

[dusk patio]

Honestly yeah tho

[trim schooner]

disabled HDR and finally it looks like an actual oled

[warm anvil]

Lmao the oled testing videos everyone uses

[trim schooner]

ong

[warm anvil]

Phone camera probably isn't doing it justice

[trim schooner]

yeah it's buns

looks much better irl

[warm anvil]

I had an oled switch a while ago but I sold it

[dusk patio]

RT in Minecraft is technically no longer updated/supported, which is why I'd recommend using the Vibrant Visuals graphics if you actually just want to enjoy the game. The RT is a cool tech demo, but I wouldn't really recommend playing the game like that

[warm anvil]

Goat

What was luffys bounty during dressrosa?

[livid perch]

U9 runs pretty chill when it gets proper air flow

[stray portal]

ngl if i switch from windows i might just use slackware

[livid perch]

i got spotify, 2 tabs of tv shows, valorant, and 2 opera tabs open running with discord

and we at a chilly 40c on system temp

and fans are at balanced mode running half the max speed rn

[rain ember]

what hardware ( nvidia and any new pc will fucking suck on slackware)

[stray portal]

ryzen 7 5700x and rx 7800xt

drivers should be built in and i think my cpu is good

[rain ember]

uh

it uses 5.11 kernel

so 7800xt could be a hit or miss

just use gentoo or anything instead

[stray portal]

hmm but i see current has newer stuff

[stray portal]

gentoo is really nice i want to use it but i dont have the time : (

[gritty panther]

$35 and $50 screen from thermaltake. it plugs into the usb 2.0 port. I have the nzxt adapter so I can plug in 3 more if I wanted it wouldnt affect anything lol

https://a.co/d/08h3QoPV

[rain ember]

so no slackware xd

slackware takes 1-4 hours

[abstract wigeon]

eh? why download so slow

[stray portal]

yea but gentoo takes like way more

i think

[rain ember]

give more info

[rain ember]

1-2 hours

[abstract wigeon]

i literally dont know
internet fast steam slow

[ivory mountain]

im not buying ur game again capcom the one i did buy barely works

[rain ember]

if u use binary repos legit 10 mins

[rain ember]

i mean os and wifi card and way of downloading steam

[abstract wigeon]

arch ethernet pacman

[rain ember]

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=299496

[abstract wigeon]

seems to have fixxed itself right at end... wierd

[livid geode]

hey chat, can any of you assist me with selling my gaming pc (like setting prices, what to add, etc)

[topaz shale]

that will happen

[abstract wigeon]

go on ebay and see how much a similar thing is going for

[stray portal]

omg the avatar pandora game looks so nice i would get it but it uses UBISOFT CONNECT 🤮

[livid geode]

mkk

[rain ember]

did u do the fixes i sent?

[warm anvil]

@rain ember gotta be the best button name ever made

[abstract wigeon]

no ive just opened

[gritty panther]

monster hunter wilds performance was pretty bad but I really enjoyed that game

I locked it to 60fps lol. was getting weird issues when it wasn't locked

[rain ember]

i wanted add a easter egg where if u double click it says why did u murder the orphans

[warm anvil]

lmao

also i was meaning to ask if this warning mattered at all

[rain ember]

also nice to see someone actually using a colour theme

[rain ember]

just gtk4 being gtk4 i can replicate it but everything seems to work fine

[warm anvil]

yeah it still works fine

[rain ember]

gtk4 then

ill get round to fixing it but it shouldnt matter

[warm anvil]

alrighty

[rain ember]

just do make test in the directory of parut

and send the output

[warm anvil]

whats the directory?

this?: /home/kaiiress/paru/paru/parut/

[rain ember]

what?

[ivory mountain]

the performance isnt my issue its the constant crashing

[rain ember]

~parut or cd /home/<usr>/parut

[warm anvil]

alr

[gritty panther]

I had a 4090 and never experienced it which was good. my friend with a 5070 had constant crashing

[warm anvil]

doesnt exist

[warm anvil]

this seems to be the directory

[gritty panther]

cousin with a 4070 Super also didnt have crashing problems @ivory mountain

I think it was an nvidia driver issue

I remember Nvidia getting a lot of flak during that time, that their drivers have gotten worse

[rain ember]

shouldnt be the correct way but wtv

it should be in
~parut or /home/kaiiress/parut

[ivory mountain]

im on amd but its crashing for hella people

[gritty panther]

even Inzio I remember everyone was complaining of constant crashes. I didnt have a single crash lol

weird 😆

[ivory mountain]

i just wanna enjoy my game but its making me wanna go back to worlds 😭

[gritty panther]

wait nvm. I had a crash ONE TIME first 5 minutes. never happened again

[warm anvil]

so what do u want me to do in the directory

[gritty panther]

maybe drivers are better now. when was the last time you palyed

[ivory mountain]

today 1 hour ago 😭

[gritty panther]

I heard they fixed the performance a few days ago. I can probably play it more than 60fps now

but im kinda over the game already. I dont miss it yet lol

[rain ember]

make test

[warm anvil]

make: *** No rule to make target 'test'. Stop.

[rain ember]

whatever its fine i just git cloned it and it all worked

gtk4 just doesnt like being gtk4

all will work

[warm anvil]

alrighty

[tidal geyser]

[wooden adder]

its hereee

[ivory mountain]

how much did they pay this guy to glaze mh wilds LMAO

[ivory mountain]

big W

[gritty panther]

WOW BIG BOY GPUY

[wooden adder]

time too see if we can make a diffrent gpu pcb work in a 5090 heatsink

[sinful cobalt]

Congrats on copping urself a 5090, enjoy

[gritty panther]

grats @wooden adder

[wooden adder]

pff this thing is no core no vram 🤣

I wish I coukd get a real one

[ivory mountain]

oh u just bought a heatsync

[wooden adder]

yep heatsink and bare pcb

[gritty panther]

Ive always bought the ventus 3x line. it's cheap and good enough lol

im too cheap for those fancy, premium gpu's

[warm anvil]

Hi chuds

[radiant harness]

Does anyone have a recommendation for a dead silent mouse so I can play games during my boring lectures?

I mean dead silent

[sinful cobalt]

I wouldnt say its good enough for a 5090

Its hella loud- In the SFF space its preferred to just deshroud it

[tulip sparrow]

https://youtube.com/shorts/0GxR0IiXmD0 yeah goodbye 8k

[gritty panther]

something that beefy is good enough for a 5090. it's a thic boi

they also used that cooler for the 4090 last gen.

5090 version is probably an improved version. it's fine

4090 ventus 3x on hyte revolt 3 itx

[sinful cobalt]

normally its good enough but in a hotbox its very loud

[gritty panther]

user error

[sinful cobalt]

They deshrouded and used I think Phanteks T30s

Either that or the noctuas

[sinful cobalt]

its the only other 5090 that fits in the T1 (Other referring to FE)

[tidal geyser]

me not gonna have good time with panther in lake

[halcyon fox]

I'm still working on compiling different mods together for it to be as realistic as possible

I should really use my better gpu for this though

This is on a 2019 MacBook Pro 💀

[warm anvil]

Is this Minecraft

[halcyon fox]

Yes

[warm anvil]

Looks pretty realistic other than the grass

[halcyon fox]

Yeah im still working on that

I might try to delve into the resource pack itself and mix and match textures from different packs

Since the grass textures from Patrix 256x are so much better

[warm anvil]

Yeah

[dawn garden]

Hey yall I’m a bit iffy about upgrading my WiFi/bluetooth card I am using pcbuilder but it isn’t showing prices when I look up the card I think I want

But when I search the product on Amazon it comes up (sort of) but from a “anatel” brand?

[craggy pagoda]

what do u guys think of buying a good laptop ram stick with a good ram adapter instead of spending £400 on actual pc rams? ill be using it on my high end gaming pc

[dawn garden]

Basically looking to upgrade from a WiFi 4 card to a WiFi 6e a210 card both intel

Yes my router supports 6ghz

I have cox fiber optic

Or maybe it’s ax219

I am having trouble keeping track of the multiple tabs windows etc

Az210*

I’m basically just looking for a 6e card that has as up to date as possible for as cheap as possible lol

I already have the antennas btw

I would share the Amazon link but I’m on phone and it’s in the app…

[nocturne loom]

Which country

😄

[halcyon fox]

I think this is a bit better

[dawn garden]

Ram is a crap shoot whatever you gotta do to make do I say if you can afford to pull the trigger it’ll probably get worse before it gets better

Thanks ai.

/sarcasm

[ripe osprey]

I have a question for you all what's the most powerful gpu that only requires a 6 pin connector to power it

[rain ember]

just use zram instead of actual ram#

[rain ember]

prob a 1060 or 3060

[dawn garden]

At this point I could buy a dodge ram truck for less than 64 gigs of high speed ddr5

lol… 😂

[rain ember]

zram

[dawn garden]

“Woah this ram loads irl.exe so quickly I went from runt/home to runt/walmart in 10 minutes!

“Woah this ram has 31,000lbs of raw towing ghz”

[rain ember]

who needs ram

[dawn garden]

Ok I’m done making my dumb jokes lol sorry

[rain ember]

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zram https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Swap

[dawn garden]

I remember when you could use storage as ram

[warm anvil]

U got Ethernet available?

[dawn garden]

Is that still a thing

Nope.

[halcyon fox]

? You still can though...

[warm anvil]

For sure it looks great

[dawn garden]

Ethernet is unfeasable though it would be very nice I am alas 80ft from the router because the moronic tech installed it in the wrong damn room

[warm anvil]

What fps do u get?

[halcyon fox]

About 7

[dawn garden]

80ft Ethernet running across the house would give my parents an aneurism

[warm anvil]

If you really wanted Ethernet u could buy a really long cable

[warm anvil]

Fair

[dawn garden]

I could but my mom would not let me use it.

[warm anvil]

Sad

[dawn garden]

I’m stuck on wifi4 with a 1gig unlimited speed

[warm anvil]

Pretty good speed

[dawn garden]

;-;

Nah that’s the routers potential

[warm anvil]

I use Ethernet with 200mbps speed

[valid laurel]

hi my friend at uni is looking to get a pc, She is looking to spend £1000 at most and to use it for blender and after effects, what would you recomend?

[halcyon fox]

Im reliant on Hotspot because we dont have wifi right now, and even when we do, im too far away from the router to maintain a stable connection

[dawn garden]

My computer pulls about 50mbps on average

[warm anvil]

Ah I see

[dawn garden]

Yeah. And I pay for the net

[warm anvil]

Thats really low

[dawn garden]

I get the slowest freaking speed on a 1gig connection I pay for

[warm anvil]

Idk much about Wi-Fi cards to be honest ive always used Ethernet

[dawn garden]

And I’m not allowed to move my oc closer

[warm anvil]

My router is in my room

[dawn garden]

It’s a lose lose for me so my only hope is a better WiFi card

[halcyon fox]

I wish I could do that 😭

[dawn garden]

My WiFi card has literally been sunset

[warm anvil]

Unrelated but nice fern pfp

[dawn garden]

Like it can’t even be updated because intel quit developing drivers for it

Even tho I bought this pc 3 fucking years ago

[halcyon fox]

But why would you need new drivers if it's already stable...

[warm anvil]

Slow speed

[dawn garden]

I’m just saying it’s slow

[halcyon fox]

It could be a router problem too

[dawn garden]

It’s not

[warm anvil]

That too

[dawn garden]

Other devices work great including my 300$ craptop

[halcyon fox]

What generation of wifi are you using?

[dawn garden]

It’s a ax3168 or something wifi4 with Bluetooth

[halcyon fox]

Hmm

[dawn garden]

I’m just looking to get any advice on if I can upgrade safely to a ax210

Or if I have to go with ax200

[halcyon fox]

Is the antenna near some sort of metal source that would interfere with the connection?

[dawn garden]

I would like the 5.2 Bluetooth and 6e

… uhh.. besides my monitor?

[balmy tapir]

why couldn't you get an ax210?

[halcyon fox]

Have you tried disabling Bluetooth and then testing the speeds?

[dawn garden]

The antennas are on the back of my case …

[balmy tapir]

i guess i don't see any reason it would cause issues

[dawn garden]

._. No do you think that would help? I use Bluetooth tho for ps5 controller ;-;

[halcyon fox]

If I have Bluetooth on in tandem with wifi on my laptop, my speeds half and Bluetooth connectivity is flakey

[dawn garden]

Pcbuilder said ax210 is incompatible with my mono

Mobo

I see I might test that theory and go wired for my controller then…

[balmy tapir]

?! its just a pcie card, i guess do you have a pcie3 or 4 mobo and the ax210 cards are pcie 4 or 5? but regardless it would still work, maybe just slower

[dawn garden]

But still, feel like I could upgrade my WiFi card and benefit

[halcyon fox]

Yeah but it really depends on how much money youre willing to spend

[dawn garden]

Idk pcbuilder marked it as incompatible

[halcyon fox]

Because really anyone could upgrade anything , but it might not be the best use of finances

[dawn garden]

I have gigabyte b550 aorus ud ac rev 1 mobo

I mean the card is 25 dollars

[balmy tapir]

ignore that, as long as you have a pcie x1 slot open youll be fine (unless im majorly missing something but i dont think i am)

[dawn garden]

I can afford it. I can’t afford to get it and it not work tho.. that’s what I’m wconused about

In pcbuilder.io do you have to build the whole pc to remove the invompatible warning?

Ugh what a heckling pain

I can’t pull the trigger on an upgrade without being sure it will work

Is pcbuilder.io even reliable

[balmy tapir]

i just wouldnt use pcbuilder.io, why not pcpartpicker?!

[tidal geyser]

Me pc so dusty

[dawn garden]

Thank you I’ll try pcpartpicker

[balmy tapir]

compatibility filters often may be wrong as well, i dont see why a ax210 wifi card would not work with a b550

[narrow wadi]

is anyone able to help me solve an issue with a pcie wifi adapter not being able to detect networks on w11?

[balmy tapir]

did you install the driver?

did you attach the antennas

[narrow wadi]

yes everything

for a second it was working when I reset the driver

[balmy tapir]

does it show up in device manager?

[narrow wadi]

having issues with wifi on w11 for longer so I bought PCIE one

[narrow wadi]

yes

The menu where you can connect to wifi networks is ther, the button is there it just displays as not available

[balmy tapir]

do you actually have a wifi network?!

try mobile hotspot?

[narrow wadi]

It doesnt even detect the neighbours so

[balmy tapir]

maybe try booting into safemode with networking?

uninstall drivers the reinstall them

[narrow wadi]

can try this, drivers have been reinstalled 3x atleast

[gritty panther]

fkn weebs everywhere makes me sick /s

[balmy tapir]

https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/47937-reset-network-adapters-windows-10-a.html maybe try option 1

[tidal geyser]

Now that is how a good dot looks like

[narrow wadi]

Im one w11

Never had issues with 10 bit 11 is quite horrible

[narrow wadi]

already tried option 1

[ebon marlin]

When updating to windows 11 it's recommended to do a fresh install rather than a regular update from win10 to win11 as that introduces issues

[dawn garden]

So I just bought this one

[balmy tapir]

basically the same tbh the setting should still be there

[dawn garden]

It’ll be here tomorrow!

[tidal geyser]

Look at my house

[balmy tapir]

then format and reinstall 😭 or go to linux

[narrow wadi]

Let me know how good this is

[nocturne loom]

Rather expensive, you should be able to find cheaper AX210 sets

[narrow wadi]

Im tempted to go full iOS

[dawn garden]

It has everything I wanted and it’s also marked as compatible and it is from my mobo manu so

I got it cos it’s gigabyte haha also it comes with the antenna I’m gonna rip out the ones in my current setup and install the new one

[nocturne loom]

An AX210 is an AX210

The 'brand' just makes a passive X1 riser

[rigid fjord]

probably being more costly because gigabyte labelling, otherwise yeah, abound 15-20

[balmy tapir]

?!

[nocturne loom]

Yeah

[quick stag]

got my self written OS running on a device that has ~80% support for it (uses Realtek something something networking while I only have an e1000 driver)

[swift stream]

i had people in amd flame me for wanting to get this aio 😔

[ebon marlin]

You can get wifi7 for like 20 bucks

[ebon marlin]

Deserved

Corsair makes the worst aios lmao

[narrow wadi]

ASUS PCE-AX3000 is what I got

[nocturne loom]

Yeah
BE200 is $23

[warm anvil]

Is that the catto

[narrow wadi]

yeah im over it, returning it and trying anotoher usb, but new pc most likely aint windows pc anymore im over it

[nocturne loom]

https://www.amazon.com/BZIZU-5400Mbps-Bluetooth-Streaming-Compatible/dp/B0DB4NNW5J/
There, much better priced.

[rigid fjord]

because overpaying for an aio with a screen when you can get a 360mm aio with screen for half or 2/3rds the price of that

[narrow wadi]

been tryiing some fixes for 2 hours now and nothing works, w11 is jsut complete dogshit

[narrow wadi]

how is the experience on w11?

[nocturne loom]

With what

AX210?

[tidal geyser]

Time to say goodbye

[nocturne loom]

I'm fond of the Asrock PG aesthetic.

Are jackery battery banks still some of the best? Or have they enshittified?

[tidal geyser]

Only the motherboard is left now

My laptop has TB4 and Oculink

[rigid fjord]

and lock yourself to icue in the process when with the likes of thermalright or arctic you could run it from the mobo's software or the likes of signalrgb

[tidal geyser]

chinese thinkbook man i wish lenovo would bring that to the west

[swift stream]

i mean, im currently stuck in armoury crate... not much better 😔

[nocturne loom]

I love my Chinese Thinkbook

32GB total VRAM is so nice for running LLM stuff

[solemn pewter]

Is there a particular brand you would recommend?

[rigid fjord]

you know you can uninstall that pile of bloat and disable it in the bios from being re-installed back onto the pc, and use remo's fan control for fan curves while using signalrgb to control the lighting

[balmy tapir]

jackery isnt bad, wouldn't blindly buy one, but they arent an avoid afaik

[swift stream]

i did, i installed it manually because no other hardware but armoury crate would recognize my fan header

[rigid fjord]

ecoflow would be the one i'd look into when it comes to that kind

[balmy tapir]

openrgb?!

[rigid fjord]

remo's fan control recognises the fan headers that have a fan connected to them

[rigid fjord]

have you seen the ecoflow ones compared to jackery?

[tidal geyser]

And my desktop is no more

[gritty panther]

im so confused lol

[swift stream]

yeah, also tried signal rgb

[scarlet marlin]

followed ya'lls advice and actually got a reputable PSU
I've been running a 1.5k pc setup using a 12$ psu 😭

[thin bloom]

I got that for my pc it really works well. Been in the pc for maybe 3 years now? You should be able to switch antennas to a different one

[nocturne loom]

[scarlet marlin]

[scarlet marlin]

what should I do with the 12$ PSU?

[nocturne loom]

What PSU is it 😊

[gritty panther]

some black magic/wizardry here lol. cool

[scarlet marlin]

some Chinese brand called Mbox or something

[tidal geyser]

The 7900 xtx is so fkn big

[nocturne loom]

I think I have an Mbox case lying around

[rigid fjord]

it's kinda funny that certain amd mobo's come with a thunderbolt header

[balmy tapir]

cant say i have, coworker has some jackery products for his propertiy and theyve worked well

[scarlet marlin]

damn

[nocturne loom]

You should see how big my XTX is 😊
That thing can hold 400w at 56c 😊

[tidal geyser]

I think my xtx weighs more than a chunk of gaming laptops

[tidal geyser]

Hot spot what temp?

[narrow wadi]

apologies that this isnt english, screenshot of my driver. Does it matter of the 2,4ghz and 5ghz optons arent here?

[nocturne loom]

high
need to repaste

That's my XTX 😄

[tidal geyser]

Mine was 96c at 600w or so the card claimed

[nocturne loom]

600w?
What vBIOS are you running 😊

[tidal geyser]

Stock but I think it's more like 450

Software just funky

[nocturne loom]

I'm gonna flash it to a silly vbios at some point

[hexed tapir]

My buddy did over 900w on his water blocked xtx

[nocturne loom]

splendid

[rigid fjord]

bottom option, if that's about certain bands then that should allow you to set it to use both 2.4ghz and 5ghz or to use only one type

[dawn garden]

This is so cool thanks for hooking me up with pc part picker

[tidal geyser]

There's my boy

[dawn garden]

Idc that I could have got it cheaper I just care that I have something reliable

[rigid fjord]

worth a look tbh

[hexed tapir]

That sag

[nocturne loom]

Chinese ahh SSD setup

[tidal geyser]

Shush

[nocturne loom]

😊

[rigid fjord]

good chance it weighs as much as a corsair psu does

[nocturne loom]

My XTX is 2.5 kg ish I think

[rigid fjord]

my rm850x = 2kg according to corsair if i remember correctly

[hexed tapir]

you bought a $300+ mobo?

[nocturne loom]

I got a UD850GM for like 40 dolars to run my eGPU 😊

[tidal geyser]

Think it was either 400 or 500

[narrow wadi]

ah it was on 5

[tidal geyser]

I did this before I had any real knwolagde about computers

[narrow wadi]

you might be a hero lol

[tidal geyser]

It's been a good pc buy now I know how much I need in performance to be happy

[rigid fjord]

nope, just a bit of common sense and loose translation going on

[narrow wadi]

didnt know it was behind that, still not working sadly

do any of the other settings have influence?

[warm anvil]

so thats why my bios sucked, noted

[azure topaz]

it’s not, but sure

[rigid fjord]

only 2 referring to bands, and the bottom one looked like it was to select what band frequencies

[pulsar root]

I was looking at my school computer’s gpu and what kind of gpu is this 💀

[narrow wadi]

its on auto,

[rigid fjord]

all i can tell, is that, it's in dutch from my point of view

[hexed tapir]

It's a GPU that needs a driver update

[narrow wadi]

it is

[grizzled nova]

is this school provided?

[grizzled nova]

asrock postgres

[tidal geyser]

Workstation

[rigid fjord]

a turding quadro gpu

[swift stream]

this is their only praised one considering cable management and it is 240mm and able to handle R7 9800X3D

[grizzled frost]

turding is right

[rigid fjord]

second to worse, i would say

[swift stream]

what is the worst

[rigid fjord]

nzxt

[swift stream]

i picked their only praised aio for a reason

[rigid fjord]

what's not properly working with it?

[balmy tapir]

arent they all the same?! just asetek pumps and barely changes in rad design

[rigid fjord]

nope

corsair have their own pump that's not asetek

[tidal geyser]

Dusty fans

[balmy tapir]

oh interesting, is that newer? the used to have asetek yea?

[rigid fjord]

most aio's use asetek pumps, all different gens of it

[rigid fjord]

the older ones used asetek, and newer ones use coolit pumps

[balmy tapir]

ah good to know

[warm anvil]

https://tenor.com/view/basshunter-jonas-altberg-dota-ventrilo-venten-gif-8582876031820255088

[narrow wadi]

It doesnt detect any networks

'no networks found'

[rigid fjord]

are the antenna's connected onto the wifi card, and up away from the back of the pc?

[narrow wadi]

yes

Idk im about to give up, doesnt work

[rigid fjord]

hmm, how far is your pc away from the router?

[narrow wadi]

1 floor above

[sterile moon]

Alright bett

[rigid fjord]

try a restart of your system, also a reboot of the router

[narrow wadi]

It doesnt even detect the neighbours

[warm anvil]

bro why am i lagging on jump king be so fr

[stray portal]

Yall i want to get an external or another ssd and run linux off of it on my pc but theres a problem

I dont want grub to install cuz then it installs on my windows drive and takes up a lot of time to boot

Can i do it

[rigid shale]

https://a.co/d/07IwR0E4

I'm trying to switch my server over from from hard disk to ssd, due to the current market, is this a decent deal for what it is?

i dont need much space just trying to self host game servers

[balmy tapir]

you dont need to install grub on your windows drive to boot to an external ssd

[balmy tapir]

ssd server makes no sense with the current market 😭

[azure topaz]

rEFInd or clover efi can be put on usb sticks

he wants a 500GB game server hes good

[rigid fjord]

mp44l is dramless yeah

[rigid shale]

i dont need peak performance i just want to get off this hard drive

but the market is horrible

cant even get a gen 3 for a decent price

[balmy tapir]

yea it should be a fine drive, lots of budget builds used them in the 2020/21 ish era

[formal sonnet]

Ah yes, the fabled MediaTek MT7921 series... throw it away and get literally anything else.
https://www.reddit.com/r/ASUS/comments/1973lv0/mediatek_wifi_6_mt7921_wireless_lan_card_is_a/

[rigid shale]

these guys are decent

[formal sonnet]

Searching Google for "mt7921" (literally zero other keywords) surfaces mostly similar results. Some people say trying to use Dell or Lenovo's driver package for the card might work... if you can get their drivers to install on your system.

[rigid shale]

https://a.co/d/09zjwQZF

[rigid fjord]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/L9VmP6/ not much cheaper, but is a gen 3 nvme drive

[rigid shale]

i've never heard of timetec

do they have much history or any semblance of a user base

[rigid fjord]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/hTqPxr/ also a gen 3 drive

[rigid fjord]

they do, usually much overlooked in the process

[stray portal]

Hmm how

Also linux installs seem to install grub too idk why

[rigid shale]

i'm not opposed to lesser known but this is also storage and i would prefer knowing i won't have a drive fail

[frigid blade]

Do most people even need gen 4+ drives

[rigid shale]

not really

[frigid blade]

I feel like Gen 3 speeds are reasonable

[rigid shale]

they are

[rigid fjord]

dude, you can get the most well known ssd brand and it end up being a dud

[formal sonnet]

Timetec is one of those (IMO) oddball lesser known but acceptably okay brands, kind of like Mushkin. I have a few Timetec memory sticks in various USFF computers and my Synology NAS, all working just fine.
https://www.reddit.com/r/computers/comments/14vuuik/timetec_ssd_experiences/

funnily enough they're great for sodimms

[formal sonnet]

Never store data on something with the expectation it won't fail. All things will fail eventually - it's just a matter of time. Tis why backing up data is the #1 way to ensure you don't lose something important.

[rigid shale]

i really wanted the wd blue sn570

but they are mia across all retailers

[rigid fjord]

i has that

[balmy tapir]

grub is fine, but just install on the external drive and make sure bootload goes there, unplug the windows ssd if you want to be 100% sure. then you just boot to linux using f2 or f10 or f12 or whatever mobo boot menu key is

[rigid fjord]

holy network issue today

[rigid shale]

i'll probably give timetec a shot then

as long as it lasts me a couple years i'm happy

hoping ssd prices come down by then

memory related prices in general

fucking ai

[narrow wadi]

intersting, just in time before i was about to put it in the box

[rigid fjord]

don't expect price normalizing til 2027 at least

[rigid shale]

well as long a timetec holds up until then i'm happy

plus i'll just have the hdd backup the ssd

[wispy thunder]

just treat current prices as normal

[rigid shale]

should be pretty easy with ubuntu

[wispy thunder]

now that both ram is going crazy + copper prices are soaring

[rigid fjord]

you can't due to hard scalping of ddr5's as it is

[rigid shale]

still learning linux but

linux is nice

[verbal prawn]

whats the difference between the mt7921 and 7922

[wispy thunder]

wdym youcan't

[ebon marlin]

7922 is 1 number bigger than 7921

[wispy thunder]

I said just treat the prices like normal - you already know they're not coming down for a long whie

[rigid fjord]

have you not seen how bad many kits are being scalped for

[wispy thunder]

and what are you gonna do about the prices?

[balmy tapir]

id avoid mediatek tbh

[wispy thunder]

what can you do about the prices?

[formal sonnet]

For me, nothing. They're both MediaTek WiFi chips, and thus WILL NEVER be in a system I own. Ever. Period.

[verbal prawn]

i mean the 7922 is already in my framework 13 so just curious

[wispy thunder]

good choice.

I hate that AMD partnered with mtk

[rigid fjord]

mediatek wifi be like intel lan

[verbal prawn]

i mean the wifi works good enough for me so

[wispy thunder]

their wifi chips are so shoddy with mesh wifi networks

they're ok with single AP networks like most home wifi though

[rigid shale]

ordered the timetec thanks guys

[formal sonnet]

Like, if I buy a laptop, I check the specs to at least see what WiFi manufacturer it should have. Then, when the laptop arrives, I check the WiFi chipset manufacturer again. If it's MediaTek, the laptop is immediately returned.

[tidal geyser]

Jebus

[wispy thunder]

all modern AMD laptops come with mediatek.

Intel will more than likely come with Intel

[formal sonnet]

Tis why I avoid AMD laptops mostly. 😉 Oddly enough, I don't seem to have issues with tablets that use MediaTek CPU's or WiFi chipsets though, which tells me this is MediaTek's Windows drivers being incompetently written.

[tidal geyser]

Zen 5

[wispy thunder]

what laptop

[tidal geyser]

Lenovo slim 7

[verbal prawn]

my framework 13 is been getting like 500 on my home mesh wifi

[rigid fjord]

the i226-v is no better than this, and both intel lan chips suck

[tidal geyser]

Can always put in a intel card

Just do not get a xx1

[formal sonnet]

Sure, but then I want a discount from the manufacturer. Rather, I'd like the manufacturer to simply not include a WiFi card from the factory if the cards are going to be problematic. I refuse to pay for shoddy products.

[tidal geyser]

Iv never really had a laptop with bad internet and used all kinds of network cards

[verbal prawn]

sidenote if i was to say by a new wifi card and it's wifi 7 i would then be able to use wifi 7 on my laptop correct?

[tidal geyser]

Make sure your AP has 6ghz

[rigid fjord]

yup

[tidal geyser]

It's not a requirement on the wifi 7 spec for uh reasons

[formal sonnet]

Yup. Assuming the card is compatible, adding a WiFi 7 capable card to a device will allow it to use WiFi 7. Your networking hardware (Router / Access Points) must also be WiFi 7 to take advantage of all features though.

[verbal prawn]

yeah my main telus AP is wifi 7 and the mesh network is just plain normal wifi 6

so i would have to swap the network im connected to for wifi 7

but funny number go up more

[narrow wadi]

Tried the option, thanks for helping me but I am returning this aswell, jsut borderline scamming people with a product this bad

Any other options for wifi adapters?

[verbal prawn]

buy a new one

[rigid fjord]

ax200/ax210/be200 chip wifi cards

[verbal prawn]

be200 is the current best afaik

[narrow wadi]

ax210 almsot not available here

[verbal prawn]

aliexpress

[formal sonnet]

Wow. I can't even recommend reputable name brands anymore. MediaTek must be offering their WiFi chipsets at prices so competitive that manufacturers feel it's worth it to switch. https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxhardware/comments/1hv9xnl/disclaimer_the_tplink_archer_tx55e_is_no_longer/

[rigid fjord]

certain models be using realtek also

[rigid fjord]

not available?

[narrow wadi]

ah amazon

[verbal prawn]

where do you live

most pcie wifi cards, are just an adapter that takes an m.2 wifi card as it is, under the heatsink

so you stick that chip in a pci slot and its ready?

[verbal prawn]

i've heard be200s have some compatabilty issues

[verbal prawn]

yeah just like an ssd

if it's on a card, yes, if not then it goes into a m.2 slot for wifi use

@warm anvil how did you get the audio reactive wallpaper on cachy?

[rigid fjord]

for example, this is on an adapter card so it goes straight into a pcie slot @narrow wadi

[narrow wadi]

yeah I know I got one of thse

had no idea what t do with just the chip

[rigid fjord]

then you could open the card up by removing the heatsink tbh

and replace the wifi itself

this is what's under the heatsink

[warm anvil]

Who pinged

[rigid fjord]

like so

[rigid fjord]

casper did

[warm anvil]

Oh it's not the wallpaper

[formal sonnet]

You can check your Discord Notifications to find out who pinged you. (Assuming they didn't delete the ping.)

[warm anvil]

Install cavasik it uses cava but it's more customizable

[warm anvil]

Oh alr

[warm anvil]

It's in the aur

[tidal geyser]

i am starting to see where the windows hate is coming from no programs open and the bottom right is just for ejecting my monitors usb for whatever reason, 11GB for nothing at all

[warm anvil]

@frail sequoia

[tidal geyser]

i so badly prefer certain features windows just offers right out of the box with this laptop but linux aint gonna use nuf ram to make me cry

[rigid fjord]

slightly older a wifi card but at the same time, annoyingly not upgradable in comparison @narrow wadi

[tidal geyser]

tf is dis and why do i have 3 ofthem

[plush wren]

50% ram on cachyos with nothing open

[narrow wadi]

ill just go back to usb

[frail sequoia]

yeah?

[narrow wadi]

im over it, old usb was doing 250/250 which is not 1gb but im fine

[frail sequoia]

my basic ass desktop 😭

[rigid fjord]

actually worser than a decent pcie card

[verbal prawn]

ngl i don't know how to do that on pc and i've been using discord for 10 years

[tidal geyser]

wonder how much of that is the DE+the extra things you added to it

[formal sonnet]

Great question, as I do not have them, nor have I seen them before.

[tidal geyser]

im thinking about installing LTSC again but im selling this laptop in 2 weeks to a classmate

[rigid fjord]

dude

[verbal prawn]

when did that button exist

i don't remember seeing that button

[tidal geyser]

omg its only ai

[frail sequoia]

@warm anvil why the ping a few mins ago?

[tidal geyser]

its the only reason its this bad

[plush wren]

idk it was gnome + some extensions

havent booted into linux since that day jan 25 lmao

[tidal geyser]

i wanted to use my NPU 🙁

[formal sonnet]

I was just gonna say, that's what I'm finding searching the internet, too. So happy I didn't buy a laptop with an NPU.

[rigid fjord]

they changed it, and tbh, been there since at least 10 updates ago

[narrow wadi]

atleast they work good

pcie cards are being dominated by a company offering such good deals

[tidal geyser]

holy shit im getting access to recall

[rigid fjord]

that's debatable tbh

[verbal prawn]

also side note real question

why the fuck don't discord pings appear for me in the notification bar in windows

[tidal geyser]

well this was just 300$ for a zen 5 cpu that at max load is doing half the power use my desktop used at idle

[formal sonnet]

It's been there... forever. For as long as I can remember. At least 5 years, if not longer.

[rigid fjord]

github -> removeAI and run

[verbal prawn]

in my defense i used to have 10k unanswered pings

[rigid fjord]

this one only been around for 2 or so years now dude, previously it was in a different location

[rigid fjord]

yup

[tidal geyser]

i really did wanna try out some ai stuff but my god i cannot have a 16GB laptop using well over half its ram on nothing

i even uninstalled copilot

[formal sonnet]

I think you're right actually - it used to be in a different location in a prior iteration of the UI/UX. If only Discord had a fully documented user guide for their software, rather than help articles that make you hunt for information, some of which may or may not apply to your account depending on A/B testing.

[rigid fjord]

it was up by the pinned messages and hide/show members previously

[distant frigate]

https://youtu.be/zPAY2VxfFBk?si=-gOPWBhO9pt4X7gf

[tidal geyser]

its not even done and i have both discord and a firefox tab open

[distant frigate]

A thinner smartphone than the iPhone has a 10,000 mAh battery. Insane

Silicon carbon battery

[tidal geyser]

the oneplus 15 has 7300?

[formal sonnet]

Oh good, I found the FAQ article.... that shows the Inbox button NOT in the location I see mine. 🤣 https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/360045027712-Inbox-FAQ

[tidal geyser]

im dam sure it is

[hexed tapir]

The problem is they are stuck in a glass sandwich with glue and tape

[tidal geyser]

yea 7300mah

[rain ember]

8gb 😢

[formal sonnet]

Then again, I also remember when the Inbox used to be at the top of your Guild list.

[tidal geyser]

tf is a AI file

[rain ember]

agentic os remember

[stark flicker]

What are you executing

[tidal geyser]

windows is becoming worse and worse

[formal sonnet]

No, no, you see, they misspelled "All" in "All files" - the script is cleansing your computer of all files. /s

[tidal geyser]

meh gives me a good reason to reinstall in english

[rain ember]

reason why i swapped to cachy tbf

[rigid fjord]

yeah, shows how it used to be, it also shows how slow they are at updating their FAQ's

[rain ember]

windows didnt work and i hate deb base but to lazy for arch#

[tidal geyser]

this just works out of the box and im gonna sell it in 2 weeks

also 512GB ssd

if it had a 2280 slot maybe i would slap in my 2TB and do 1TB for windows the other for cachy and see how this did

[rigid fjord]

also for win 11 purposes

[fringe prairie]

16gb soldered is pain

[tidal geyser]

im fine with it as long as it means SPEEEEEEEED

[rigid fjord]

soldered ram, is just a pain in general

[tidal geyser]

also power efficent

[hexed tapir]

Step one is to ask the AI how to install a good flavor of Linux

[fringe prairie]

im fine if its at least 32gb but 16 is...

[tidal geyser]

yeeeaaa tis why i kinda wanna sell it but expected pricing for panther lake might be up to 30k nok so like 3000$

[fringe prairie]

😬

[tidal geyser]

this ryzen ai 7 350 lenovo slim 7 with its 860m is nuf for most of what i would really ever do on it

[warm anvil]

To answer your question

[tidal geyser]

but uh kinda promised a classmate i would sell it to him for 800

[warm anvil]

Go to the ping and scroll up a lil

[formal sonnet]

"Cortana Copilot, tell me how to disable and remove yourself from the Operating System."

[azure topaz]

not at 16gb lol

[tidal geyser]

wat

[rigid fjord]

that makes the hx ai 395+ look more of a bargain if it does

[azure topaz]

16gb just too little fo me

[warm anvil]

Jarvis delete yourself

[naive temple]

what are the ultra cpus used for?

[fringe prairie]

pcs, laptops

[azure topaz]

the same things any other cpu is used for i wont lie

[naive temple]

buncha einsteins here

[warm anvil]

Cpuing

[azure topaz]

you want the same generic answer but less mean ?

[naive temple]

i want the specific answer

[fringe prairie]

stupid question gets stupid answer

[hexed tapir]

Imagine having that laptop just as panther lake released

[naive temple]

cause im guessing its not for games

[azure topaz]

what does anyone do on their computer specifically

[rigid fjord]

more like
clippy
cortana
recall
copilot "how to nuke ai from my pc"

[fringe prairie]

nothing stopping you from gaming

[azure topaz]

265k and 9700x pretty evenly price and game the same

[tidal geyser]

Yes imagine

[frail sequoia]

is it "sudo pacman -S cavasik" or "yay -S cavasik"?

[azure topaz]

not really any difference

[warm anvil]

Yay

[frail sequoia]

alr ty

[azure topaz]

most people are swayed to amd cause of their massive presence online

[naive temple]

why did intel even make those

[azure topaz]

lotsa recommendations everywhere

[rigid fjord]

clippy was the only real helpful agent microsoft made

[azure topaz]

???

[fringe prairie]

because they can?

[tidal geyser]

Tbf 1851 do be a sad socket

[azure topaz]

why did amd make ryzen 9000?

[hexed tapir]

14600kf is pretty cheap( $228) and supports ddr4

[tidal geyser]

Only for x3d

[warm anvil]

more like
clippy
cortana
recall
copilot
Chris Titus debloat w11

[naive temple]

i mean u do have the regular i series

why make this ultra bs

[rigid fjord]

wouldn't touch a chris titus script

[fringe prairie]

which is the predecessor to the core ultra series
