SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS??
the one with a screw is 1200
Do I buy a keychain? Or a 5080?
5080 you fucking scrub
keychain
I love aviation but that's some stupid shit
less than 400 bucks for a 10+ Karat offshoot:
https://store.turtleshoard.com/products/f35-fighter-jet-window-sapphire-eots-cut-loose-gems?variant=47153588994336
These are lab created sapphires which were grown for use as a sensor window in the F35 fighter jet but didn't meet spec. They've been faceted in my custom EOTS design which mimics the shape of the sensor array they would have been a part of if they made spec! These stones glow blue under shortwave UV because of titani
should i repaste or no
Ive seen alot of paste in my day...suspiciously viscos
your card isn't even fucking dusty what the fuck
sacrificed a fantastic thermal paste application for nothin 🥀
curiosity killed the GPU
Final stuff for the retro project is arriving today and Tomorrow 
oh my god yes I can finally fucking start bauxite
that did not warrant disassembly.
Q tip, I believe in youu
lmfaoo
is that all? jesus roflmao
god I hate kids
and i wanted to open it up more cuz the radiator fins are cooked
why is everyone here so mad 🙏🙏🙏
do I crack open an actual dusty PC and post a pic?
yes
because you don't listen and are kinda being dumb but pop off i guess
At least it's not tar...
That one's pretty dusty, and yet still NOWHERE near as bad as I've seen
we produce hundreds of pounds of paper dust a day here, so computers can get duuuuuuusty
I like how the CPU Fan exhaust manages to keep the area around the heatsink free of dust
Very fortunate that my field work is in a clean room
and you just watch the board go from Green to.... just a layer of dust
But my laptop has taken a couple falls to the factory floor
pimp down

i cut stuff out plastic but whenever we level the board all the pcs fill up with sawdust
Dell makes a tank of a laptop
Light it on fire
that's paper dust, it'd actually burn
I know 😂
Why do I want a white GPU so bad
why is there no visible gpu there
Deth after that recommendation^
Why is that such a bad render?
That's the hot pocket slot
Jawaaaa
hi
Why is imp
They made them WORSE
because cringe
With an s blocked?
mahhhh wife
oh s-fantasy creature is blockeed..... yeah that tracks
Put the s to start the word
I'm fine with s-fantasy creature being blocked
spmi
Goober
Senpai
Why does hitting enter on the confirmation just close it out now instead of deleting the message wtf
is that IPMI's debauched cousin?
it was nice knowing you all
XD

jk jk
Also how is jawa?
haha what am I doing

Juiced.
are you always juiced or nah
the juithe is loothe
Nah it's morning and I'm tired
Gin and juice
hm i thought it was afternoon for you
hi mike tyson
No that's Linus with bite blockers
ah
hello, fellow kids
hi
fellow kidth
Hello
is your pfp the monkey from madagascar
Yes
why did linuth choothe yellow for the bratheth band
fire
it lookth like thit
He says he ate curry like 3 days in a row
LMAO
Madagascar lets you enter the world of 4 hilarious Central Park Zoo animals; A goofy lion, a dreamer zebra, a hip hippo and a hypochondriac giraffe. When these funky friends decide to trade their cagd lives for the wild, the fun begins with a daring escape -- and you'll have to lead them home!
11 action-packed, movie-based chapters that take yo...
It does look really bad lmao
it was gross
My pfp is from this of all places
dude I watched the linus+linus vid and went "OH MY GOD DENTAL HYGEINE"
Torvalds was like bro
thats because he's an OCD lunatic
like bro
Love these mini games bring back so much memories
oh shit he became british
it's so gross
yeah that's pretty nasty
I'm sure he hates it exponentially more than we do lol
when I had braces I never let it get that bad
and with the stubble it just looks like he's letting himself go lmao
i think that's also just having yellow bands
He has some newfangled new brace tech that he hates idk
nah the shit was white and it stained yellow lmao
why is he fixing his teeth again? I thought he already did something for it
just use NiTi wires like I had for christ sake
wasnt this curry staining it yellow like hell?
he talked about it during wan
Pink!
they weren't yellow, thats the thing thats being said i guess
pride flag bands lets goooo
presumably white/clear
He specifically said he'd eaten curry multiple days in a row, staining the bands
think about it
Oh that's horrendous if the bands can stain like that
Permanent fruity pebble teeth
JAWA
No.
UTINI
i do not recommend
Check my main profile
Jawa can you come around more, you're cool
no sorry gotta go (thanks)

bye bye cookie man
Linus has also said that he hates his braces, and would have gone with a different solution if he knew these were going to fuck with him as much as they have
I miss when FP VC was active and Jawa and Langley would frequent there
Good times
so why doesn't he just.. switch
time, effort, cost
i swear he already did invisalign
he was considering, but he didn't
it'd be a 2 hour session to swap over all his mounts to NiTi
he's since said "I would have done invisalign if i'd known what this was going to be like"
Also the all time classic when Jake was oulling up at a McDonalds drive thru whilst in FP VC
noooooo that would've been legendary to be there for lmaoooo
that's called electricity
I'd be yelling "I want a mcrib!!"
Why do your cables have bare electrical contacts on live cables?
"nono jake put the phone like an inch away from the order console- I WANT A MCRIB"
god turn off the watermark
why on earth is that even a thing
wh-
just a 14 y/o annoyance doxxing himself dw
For a second I thought the timestamp was coordinates and got reeeaaaal concerned
Here's a shit pic I took with my terrible phone
NGL I don't remember what exactly he ordered but being present whilst it happened was an experience 
lol
what goes in the red barrel I can't read it
it did do city/province or whatever you want to count that as coords
"FOD ONLY"
i.e. debris on the tarmac
Oh I see it's an aviation acronym

absolutely could not read that
Jawa, do you happen to know by chance?

I do not, sorry lol
I've sat in front of a computer for a good 14 years of my life and I somehow could read it

My PCBs come today
We were definitely yelling our orders tho

lmaooooo
okay enough fucking around I need to go do some productive work now
if I could go back in time I'd go back to the start of lttcord
If I could turn back time....
The.. public vc days? 
IF I COULD TURN BACK TIME
hell. agony. torture.
If I could find a waa-AY
IF I COULD FIND MY WAY
Sure why not
Still there btw
Also can we make tc2 vote-in only
I would troll the shit outta some mofos in that
seriously, lets make tc2 vote-in only
or put a 1000+ message barrier to entry?
yes
I hate level bots
ok but tc2 NEEDS it
I'm gonna be a part of the TC2 club right?
tc2 is where people who know their shit hang out
as fun as it is to shame dorks it do be tiring
My perfect view ruined by constant construction
I want a skylight in my office :(
I have a tiny-ass 3x2' window and it gives little to no natural light
Ooh I also want ramen
yeah my only window faces the west so it's not great, it also faces the staircases and stuff so I don't get great lighting
I do get lighting from the giant lamp post though
korean bbq ramen with a little bit of gruyere cheese,,
I want to eat hot pot so bad
I would destroy some brothy noods rn
my appetite is so out of whack lately I ate a can of salmon mixed with a can of corn & broccoli for dinner
is there even VC here any more
yes
yes
maybe I have them hidden
wtf is pilot and copilot

I changed my rx580 thermal paste
The temps before was 102
Now 75 after playing war thunder for 6 hours in max graphics
you have the chinese rx 580
I bought it for 40$ Lol
not bad
My bronze 500w should be graded gold
It handles the rx580 perfectly fine for 1 year
yeah thats not how that works
you talkin to me or the other guy
thats what I thought, but wanted to ask just in case I somehow missed somethin XD
OH
i though its means it could handle more than it could if needed
Nope
no lol
thanks for letting me know
np
@charred lava
A minor zap and a major yip?
@turbid locust floppa is in here in the voice chat shit talking your bin but also giving out pro OC tips
floppa gave me bad tert timings fuck that guy

use a goddamned calculator, or google
ok ;<
this is a great cable for when the power is out and you turn on a generator and plug it from the generator to an outlet, then proceed to Not disconnect your power from the power lines so when they go to work on the power lines they are now dealing with power powerlines in an outage!
@merry stirrup can you repeat the 9133 secret settings you just gave in #pilot-toast so Mac can see?
Yeah I’ll check the No Access channel thanks 5nail
yeah i linked them go check
mac get fucking floatplane
bro whats your go-fund-me?
This has to be some form of discrimination

SNAIL
Can I touch 4k with a 9070xt?
the holy snail
all praise snails
i dont have a role
LOL
why
It’s actually like 1C my car was lying
Wind chill of like -5C
bc you should praise me instead
TF
it sucks - it was like 25 this AM and I am still on summer tires on 3 cars
its 10c outside and im freezing
if you go to the LTT forum, make an account and link it to your discord account you will be green
Idk the cold doesn’t really bother me till it’s in the 20’s
i like the white tbh, thanks tho
This is like perfect running weather
what thermalpaste should i get
The kind that goes between your cooler and your CPU
the kind you put on a cpu
i got mx4
so.. mayonaise is good?
The way marketing has a chokehold on these guys is crazy
Thermal paste is thermal paste
basically any is fine
You’re gonna see a maximum of a 5° difference between the worst and the best
nuke france then
yeah thats like saying: car is car
so many companies that I almost wanna throw up at a search
for fun
i used the tf7 from thermalright, no idea if thats good and now I just need something new that performs well, should i get the tf7 again
Not even remotely comparable
i give up
same
we dont speak angle grinder

bruh, i just left a Teams meeting and it worked fine.
just download discord
use the damn headset mic ffs
any not-garbage thermal paste is more than fine.
MX6 is dirt cheap and the default reccomendation
Being a fast walker is a curse
me and Mac will be green4life
but any paste that's not objectively trash is plenty good for consumer hardware
and Tkitch too
🤌
Not paying money, so my name can be blue on a discord server
part of me is tempted to sign up before they raise the prices on 1/1
I mostly want to see some of the extras
i fixed it
Meh
what broke
me
they are?
Been one of the hardest months of my life, just a few more days
yup
If you're already a member, your price is not going up
so on WAN they're telling people to sign up now
is the most recent nvidia driver extremely broken?
I saw mention of it being a major update, so possibly
oh my
reminds me of when I was a kid lol, having cartoon themed rooms
The girls got to pick their styles 
awesome
tell whoever picked Lilo and Stitch they did a good job
lmao
When i get her back 
a good classic choice
Had to prolong court till the 10th so my lawyer could gather everything sucked so badd
as iv gotten closer to graduating uni, iv began to want to have kids lmao
These Gen 3 pros don’t stay in my fuckin ears bro
I to struggle with most plug ear buds especially if moving around
Gen 2s were fine
Awww snap lol
not even g2 fans smh

optimal
let me guess, corsair vengeance rgb ram?
more zen 6 laptop cpu testing
Cringe
Wait is Zen6 soc gonna be N2?
Eh, N2 still isn't backside power. What archaic technology
the soc chiplet? unlikely
-100k social credit
Yoru'e*
your're**

Nom
Update turning G sync off seems to have fixed the ue5 flickering
yeah flicker on OLED can be super noticeable in some titles
Just in the engine was pretty intense but all seems good now
but also havent tested many titles tbh
Do you have a secondary display
Just the 1 didnt notice it on halo, or civ vi, or Diablo iv, or fallout. But the ue5 was alot of flickering and 1 black screen
hmmm interesting
I get really bad VRR flicker on my C4 if my other monitors aren’t set to the same refresh rate
But there is major frame jumps so id assume that to be it maybe, I dont know enough about it. Just happy its fixed for now
yeah it’s caused by framerate swings
Any of you guys familiar with zotac firestorm software? Just curious if its any good or worth having
Looks wise isnt to shabby
started talkin about sattelites and shti idk whats going on in there
I generally use zero brand specific software
anyone able to help out in here, ive been getting some issues for few days
<@&750150305383186585> give us streaming perms
@shell void important Xe3 built on IFS 3 news
Early leaks have it beating Radeon 840m (4x rdna3.5)
Maybe we will get real IFS GPUs in the future 🤑
that’s better than i expected if it’s similar tgp
I think it would be
I hope reviewers get units in January
dude don't remove the muzzle from that thing, cops will fucking shoot you
stay safe
No shit??
I'm well aware, it was in reference to a onversation in #pilot_voice
Fritzbox 6690 cable is dead after downgrade from Labor version to normal.
Someone an idea?
Fritzbox = Cable Modem
What does "Labor version to normal" mean?
- Wrong, cable is one versio... (dsl, cable, fiber, ...)
- Labor version is like Beta and normal is release/final build.
I think you cant help me, you know surely nothing about AVM
damn @frank zealot
you're right, this cable modem is clearly not a cable modem
Lmao bruh
I'm assuming there's a hell of a language barrier here, so I'm being extra nice.
Take that W.
looks like the fritzbox is on the fritz again
DOCSIS 3.1 is a cable spec btw if you didn’t know that
I think so
Part of an HFC network
fucking love kei trucks
But i dont know whats the problem with my question?
I wrote FritzBox 6690 cable... thats exactly the version.
The problem this versions have no recovery tool
And the manufacturer can't help you?
or your ISP?
is this an ISP provide device that you installed beta software on?
Its my own device.
Running on beta since a year and now i thought "why?" lets go back to stable
hell yeah, ordered a blower cooler for the last 2080ti
cant wait to see a literal brick of gpus
@topaz veldt arc raiders?
tbh ill probably sell off a couple of the 2080tis after im done rendering this project
hmmm sure
or maybe all of em idk
Gimme 5 minutes
My parents want me to do tech support for them
aight im ready
@topaz veldt
Someone an idea?
Would be a shame if its broken for over 250€
you winning?
kinda
and it died
just like that
never to be used again
I was there
XD
mkay
call isp
"hur dur internet not worky"
my guess is that you erased ISP specific config
jorj missed the whole thing
No the box is dark. Not even the power led is on.
I think the software is broken after downgrade
But cable version has no recovery tool.
No reset button.
Nothing.
have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in
is that fortnite
sims 4
oh
Is there any chance someone could help me with a specific aio mounting issue ? I tried #1106613567966429224 but didn’t get a response
what a fucking asshole
h u h
you did get a response
wat
did you buy this router or was it a ISP provided router?
Own router.
Because the ISP wont let me use Labor version.
ASUS Tuf gaming 750W or 850W for a 5060 ti 16GB? They both cost the same amount of money
then contact manufactuer
@edgy laurel playing arc with @low sorrel this PC is so fucking good now
I have a feeling it was good before
snail jumped off an cliff
fucking missed a landing I thought
roll roll
Yk what
It reminds me of water boy and fire girl level selection lmao
this is more closer
Yo, I only need 1 8 pin connector, to use the left connector or something else?
W price price for a 7600xt? It's gonna go with my overclocked r7 5700x
Then swap my 7600 non xt into my r5 5500 system
Canadian price
seems like way too much for a 7600xt to me
nvidia lyfe
piss off
i was looking at a $210usd RTX 5050 this morning which would be 293CAD
450cad pre tax for a 7600xt seems like way too much
Lowest price I've seen is 436 cad new on one
doesent matter,
May I ask why are we looking at the 5050 it's respectfully garbage
A 3060 12gb or even 4060 used is better
i wouldnt buy anything radeon older than the 9000 series because they dont have native support for fsr4 or redstone

Fair, I'm a amd fan boy but I don't even use fsr
5050 and 4060 are equivalent in performance and heat output so the used 4060 would have to be notably less than $210 to be interesting
else youre just buying a 3 year old gpu for the same price for no reason
5050 will win with the new dlss bs but raw performance 4060
they’re nearly equal in raw performance
yeah TPU has the 4060 at 3% ahead which is realistically a tie
the 5050 isnt used, and it has the latest featureset (dp2.1, dlss mfg, longer driver support, etc)
4060 would have to be like $150 to be interesting
i dont like the 5050 but it's tolerable at $210
i was really hoping there would be a 5060 Super 12GB for people to buy starting next year
you're rich tho
the shining is such a good slow burn
I’m waiting for a 6090 were not the same
Hi guys, im specing out a custom minecraft jukebox right now, and want to make sure that my idea would work if executed like it is on paper.
(PB = Powerbank, R = Raspbarry Pi, D = CD Drive. The boxes in the top right/left corner are purely for holding the CD drive up, because it will need to be at the top of the box, always.)
like how slow it introduces the horror
Would it be best for me to wait to buy until jan-feb for prices to lower
Also is there any hope of ram prices going down?

long term yes
short term no
Long term being years for months?
look at last ram price boom, took aprox 2y for market to recover (for supply to reach demand levels)
Rip
Should I over budget for my build? Meaning save more than I actually plan to spend just in case of accidents. If so, how much for a 1.2k build USD
ok thats true
I'm watching it for the first time from start to finish and it is as good as everyone says
any clue as to why this happens? I need help
First time start to finish, i've seen bits and pieces obviously
I don't have the power to make such changes, I'm afraid.
cor context, I log in VR, it disables wifi outright, idk why, I then crash a min after I reset the adapter. and I crash at times when in VR also, I've fixed and check ram, did tests, reseat everything factory reset three times, updated bios and everything. it just crashes or resets the PC no even blue screen just black and resets. could be power supply but if the wifi cuts, it's probably motherboard issues

MAKE IT SO
I DEMAND
My voice toooootally has power /s
takes too long, or no one responds/ already tried.
Is pilot vc alive or something
it was blowing up earlier
it was
for 2 months i had floatplane and not a single pereson was ever in vc :('
I have to go pick my kids up in a car with Pilot Sport Cup 2s lol
This was very spur of the moment
me and snail got cyberbullied
the finest of winter tire apparel
why not slicks
helping my friend pick out some fans for his PC. he's getting the arctic liquid freezer III pro argb + antec c8. he's considering getting corsair fans for his other case fans and we're wondering how it'd work connecting the RGB and everything else with the aio fans/rgb. any knowledge on this?
If the new fans plug into 3 pin ARGB mobo headers it's easy
or he could order more Arctic ARGB Fans, instead and have them match
tempting
shit
I have a 96GB 6400 CL32 kit unused
give?

gib
How much of a price difference between ryzen 5 and ryzen 7 builds?
the cost of the cpus difference
Depends heavily on which generation and whether or not you’re looking at x3d chips but roughly $30-200$
You can get 64GB DDR4 for nearly the same price, but would it be smarter to buy 32GB DDR5 oder doubble it with 64GB DDR4

ikr
I feel like I picked the worst time to build a pc but ig it’s better than nothing
I heard gpu prices are gonna be shafted as well bc of vram shortages or smth
You already have 32GB
what does this even mean man
well i want 64
I dunno its midnigth and my english skills are giving up
So you’re going to try to run 4x DIMMSs? Good luck!
i mean if he never enables expo it’d work
How does that work with ddr5, same performance or worse?
you spend hours regretting you bought 4 dimms
lol true.
Ik there’s a 5% difference between single channel and dual channel but is 4x smth to avoid or just not beneficial
if you throw a few dozen hours at the problem testing and dialing it in you can do 6000 if you’re lucky
but it’s not plug and play
two stick or four, it’s all still dual channel.
But yes it’s not always plug and play especially with Ryzen
also a 4x16 setup is easier than a 4x32 setup on the chip for example
so if you’re in need of a lot of ram, just don’t try over clocking it
I don’t doubt it’s easy for you or even me but Jorj…
leave it at jedec and move on
i got this with opcore simplify
do i still have a hope for triple boot?
No idea what I’m looking at
Opencore patcher?
Jfc
your nvidia card and sd reader won’t work in macos
so take that information and figure out if you need those
But I’m hearing triple boot and want to drive off a cliff
umm
one OS per drive if you want to remain sane
i have only 1 boot drive
its a laptop
have fun man
Prepare for pain
none of us can walk you though that
one OS per computer IMO
It will break, just a matter of when
windows + linux is fun
*unless virtualised
eh if they’re in separate drives and you set windows to use unix time they’re perfectly fine to dual boot
VMs are easier
i have windows + linux too!
Simply run macOS through a windows vm through a Linux vm ez
its just two computers
but not fun
i tried but its laggy asf
Get another computer
broke
Vouch
Pain it is!
have you tried not?
What is usb to ssd nvme external for 200 on the board or usb stick if you must

always has been
||cries in gtx 1650||
a 1650 isn't that bad
Finally someone else with reasonable opinions
its just cutting off/on power to the drives containing os
isnt a GTX1650 about a RTX2050M
aint good enough for 2024 onwards
ok, a 3 position switch would still be better
cant have both on at once that way
how else would you transfer files 
NAS, USB, dont?
@turbid locust do I bother stabilizing 8000 or just run 6000 on mitx 9800x3d
Eh it aint that bad for 1080p
6000
Gear 2 or you’re a poser
8000 for keks 6000 for daily
In fact go for 8400
you have an obligation to run g2 if youre using a 1dpc board

on min settings?
That doesnt sound too bad
kinda
wdym kinda?
i mean unless you slam cas latency can’t you do 8000 at 1.35v
Even in 23 my 1650 super would struggle with unoptimized games like tarkov bc of the vram limitation, you can get a lot of newer games running at decent fps but it hitches
Comp games run no problem tho
Tarkov is a Unity game, it running like shit is basically a given
i run no ram fan and just use the cope trefi
Any day now they’ll switch 
g2 will be putting less heat into your case because you can run 0.8vsoc :p
Tarkov almost certainly isn't going to be switching from Unity, ever
How does one learn about gears in this context?
2000uclk with gdm enabled is a joke for your memory controllers
i had no issue posting 8000 repeatedly at 0.8vsoc
Nvm
yeah i couldnt test it because i dont have a good motherboard
pulse 9070xt?
yes

amazon says no
also an CORSAIR RM1000e (2025)
ballin
upgrading from what
should have gotten a Leadex Titanium 2800
3060 mb
what res?
1440p
if youre gpu limited in the game that you play, and you want more performance then buying a gpu right now isn't a bad idea
these are probably the lowest prices that we're going to see for a while
it was not avalibile atm, my first choice would be be quiet power zone 2 but it wasnt avalibile either
Alright
was a /s necessary?
i want you to google that PSU, and consider what it is
tis but a scratch
it requires 200-240v
can i put 400v 3 phase to it?
probably no
USPS tracking is always so shit lmfao
it is
i’ve found every carriers has gone to shit lately personally
like i won’t see the mpower tracking update till monday probably when it’ll magically pop up in north carolina
UPS has live
Bro dropped my ram off Monday and it supposedly hasn’t moved
AMD Desktop Ryzen 7 9850X3D 120W AM5 DVTP/N: 100-00001973-00
thx discord for reminding me how crazy i am
lol of course I reinstall OS/drivers on 9800X3D SFF and there's a new nvidia driver
i updated to the latest studio before leaving and it seemed fine
@wise bear i was mistaken, they did push it to studio
updating from october to december 🔥
i do because im lazy and skeptical
it's nice to only update like once a month, or once in two months with this last cadence
it's the same driver afaik, they just push updates less frequently
I don't mind updating if it fixes shit
BF6 alt+tab window render is wonk and of course it crashes losing focus
I wrote a script to collect nvidia version and post it on a dashboard for all 5 of my systems I care about
i just rarely update my driver
jufenstein doesnt stop @topaz veldt
my work machine is currently running GRD 581.42 (September 2025) and before that had studio 572.60 (Feb 2025)
Hmmmm
Do you play BF
no
besides, thats my work machine, the only game its "played" is the one i work on
i probably should actually update the driver on it though
Nice! El Scripto is working
haxor
hoarder
I need to setup an SMTP trigger on new file
I wrote this it check and pull datacenter nvidia
yeah you gotta be a different level of neurotic to update on every release instantly
I update when I have issues/it’s been awhile
i update when i have issues, or IT or graphics yells at me to
the last time i updated was because nvidia fixed a bug for us iirc
tf
you have to update it yourself at work?
I usually update if I’m playing a game that came out recently
well, IT doesn't do it automatically
do you have admin on your machine?
wery wierd to me
in my corpo IT (we) do everything through scripts, user doesent have any admin rights
¯_(ツ)_/¯
both this job and my previous ive had admin access
but then again, im a software dev
i need admin to be able to profile things, among many many other times i need admin
yea we dont have devs other than couple of SAP people
SAP the company?
sap the erp product

27" 2160p 240Hz QD-OLED has hit a new lowest price in the USA with this new monitor ($700): https://www.amazon.com/MAG-272UP-QD-OLED-X24-Adaptive-Sync/dp/B0FTZVBX84/
i like that samsung is cutting qd oled prices as woled monitors get more popular
also, the amount of "untrusted" shit i need to run constantly
if i didn't have admin access, it would be a clusterfuck for IT
windows sandbox
"untrusted"
i compiled it myself, because its the thing im paid to work on
Speaking of untrusted stuff...

A Japanese game studio is now requiring job seekers to draw in front of them IRL to prove their portfolios aren't AI-generated.
Sometimes, modern problems require "backwards" solutions: https://80.lv/articles/japanese-game-studio-tasks-job-seekers-to-draw-in-front-of-them-to-make-sure-their-portfolios-aren-t-ai-made
Preview image by @0homi_
ofc none of the debug builds are signed or anything
This is honestly pretty smart.
would be really hard for me to draw in font of them, given i don't draw
yes i realize its targeting artists, not devs
@shell void give me a new game to play
I'd love to find out about more studios who do this now too. Really good for getting on good artists too.
Literally anything else
@shell void I just killed my pc lol
I plugged a usb-c cable into a usb-a port in my motherboard by accident in the dark. The whole pc shorted, lost video output, and fans are spinning like crazy.
so you unplugged it from the wall, plugged it back in and turned it back on, right?
Tried that too
I just tried again after leaving it unplugged for 5 mins, now I have video output again... that could have been bad.
Wait did my bios reset itself
but it should just turn the port off, and then reset it when you reboot
yup my RAM is no longer overclocked
why did i lose 21 for that
riot games is cruel
league of legends
i want a pro art laptop so bad
Which chip would you use for a 1.2 k usd budget build?
Used for gaming
7600x or a 265k probably
Fuck you
i’d whoop u so hard
Oxygen not included 
looks cool not on sale tho
I love it
Finding engineering solutions for every problem
r5 9600x or u5 225f if youre going new from domestic retailers
whats the number
❓
Í
Intel® Core™ Ultra 5 Processor 225F
🙄
it's decent at its current $158 price
better than the more expensive 9600X, but only if you dont care about future cpu upgrades on the same motherboard
Ok quick kinda dumb question, when I put my gpu cooler back on without screws etc should I be able to see the heatsink touching the gpu die or will touch when I screw it in?
I got +35 in a match the other day it was nuts
The ARL plague 😔
Hard to say bc of ram prices but if it were me I’d go for a 5700x3d and a amd card
why in the world would you buy INTO am4 in 2025
Idk what DDR4 looks like but it can’t be much better than DDR5. Going AM4 in almost 2026 is psychological torture
like my 265k pissed me off but i'll maintain it's a great budget chip
now it’s at a point where when you buy certain 1 year old mid range phones with 12 gb ram rest of the phone is free
because the lpddr4x or lpddr5x modules cost just as much as the phones
ddr4 = old ddr5 pricing
so not worth kneecapping your entire system for
the ram pricing sucks yes but it doesnt actually make that much of a difference in total system price
buying am4 unless it's your buddies old stuff for cheap is a dumb idea
well +20% total system cost if you get a 2x16gb, b650m, 6 core part, mid range gpu
New AM4 was a bad buy in 2024 let alone now lmao
yeah dont buy ancient hardware just to save $100 on ram :p
