theyre big like 4TB drives so its just a lot to back up
i was thinking about getting some NAS thing (i think thats what theyre called)
i dunno how good they are though compared to like internal drives
cos i have no more room for internal drives in my pc
quartz atlas
Nas is basically a bunch of hard drives in an enclosure connected to your network.
Yama would know more
You still have to buy hard drives to put in the Nas enclosures
subtle hawk
yeah i just thought they might be better than internals for like back up kinda stuff
i think its kinda like a cloud storage
subtle hawk
hexed citrus
yeah a NAS is basically that
also for AMD's fidelityFX I have no hopes to beat nvidia
especially when they're directly competing with DLSS
odd juniper
i think its kinda like a cloud storage
its basically a seperate "mini pc" but with harddrives that are shared through the network.

sounds good but theyre kinda pricey like 400-500 even without drives

yup. it's cheaper to just make one yourself.
configuring it will take more time though
u can just get something 2nd hand too

the key never leaves the TPM under any circumstances
not the OS

nothing has access to that key

versed blade
Oh I see
hexed citrus
that's why it's called Trusted Platform
it's similar to the apple T2 chip
only it just does encryption and credential storage
versed blade
I imagined was similar
but thought you could still link stuff to it even with apple's one
just because it is unique to the device and unchangeable
hexed citrus
no you can change the key
just that you lose the encryption on your drives and your credentials
as well as the secure boot key
desert olive
wdym vague
Not everyone reads the documentation. Specially those who are untechnologically inclined
Most heard of the restrictions by word of mouth as well.
People do need to know what Secure Boot and TPM is to begin with before complaining why they're being gated frorm this update and it seems so far (at least from my end) nobody was able to explain what those are.
hexed citrus
it's simple
security
ez to explain
also it's literally on the front page
like not documentation
not a support page
the main windows 11 presentation page
also I doubt most people that will want to upgrade to windows 11 from 10 won't know how to enable TPM in BIOS or some things like that
the people that have no idea how to do it either won't care
or will get a new machine that runs windows 11 out of the box
hexed citrus
desert olive
Consumer devices that'll have Windows 11 pre-installed should start coming out by Early 2022 iirc
but the upgrade for existing devices is on Holiday 2021
so its fair to say that
plain mica
hexed citrus
not only that but a ton of people don't understand that most CPUs, PCHes and motherboards from 2016 and on have some sort of built in TPM support
they've been requiring TPM modules since windows 8 era
chromebooks had them since the beginning
apple just recently started using T2 and now their M1
and Qualcomm had TPM support since thr 855
then again for qualcomm it's more of a secure enclave tather than a TPM
since it can do much more

C is less complicated tho, no classes, no templates, only structures, unions and functions
hexed citrus
then you barely scratched the surface of C
random magnet
isn't C++ a more "simplified" C or is this wrong?
plain mica
C++ is derived from C
spare ravine
C++ is C with classes, operator overloading, templates, and extra stuff
hexed citrus
C++ is more like the spiritual successor to C that adds OOP and other related concepts on top
random magnet
ahh got it. so if you want to learn C++, go to C first
dunno why we went with C++ immediately
hexed citrus
not at all
you can go with C++ straight off the bat
it will handhold you through the initial phase with some good sanity checks and restrictions
spare ravine
then you barely scratched the surface of C
well every decent language has pointers, types, variables, so i didn't bother mentioning them
spare ravine
well if it's a functional language, maybe you don't need some of the stuff
or if it has a GC + refefence types you don't really need pointers
but they are still used internally
so why bother hiding them

spare ravine
well i said the entry point
hexed citrus
most programs are compiled into assembly
spare ravine
some are compiled to some intermediate language first like LLVM, MSIL and however Java's byte code is called, then AoTed into machine code / assembly or JITed
I'd argue that most are JITed because Javascript is too popular
and C# and Java are really popular too
hexed citrus
being popular doesn't automatically make it the norm
spare ravine
most programs are compiled into assembly
and are they really? because why not shit out machine code directly
hexed citrus
because there's certain considerations to be taken
like the specifics and differences of each machine
not to mention that processors are optimized for this specific method of execution
spare ravine
yeah but if you distribute a binary containing machine code, what's the point if the compiler took those extra steps of generating assembly code then translating the assembly code into machine code
does it make it easier to do the code gen part?
hexed citrus
to simplify it yes
spare ravine
btw is Python JITed or interpreted
because it's performance always surprises me
it really feels like it's interpreted
hexed citrus
interpreted
spare ravine
ahh that explains everything
random magnet
what's JITed?
plain mica
just-in-time compilation
hexed citrus
basically the program is compiled just as it's about to be ran
plain mica
for example, java programs start out as interpreted, and then the longer it runs, the JVM that runs the code translates the most used portions into assembly code
random magnet
basically the program is compiled just as it's about to be ran
is C++ also like that?
hexed citrus
no
plain mica
C++ is compiled into assembly code
hexed citrus
it's compiled ahead of time
plain mica
interpreted languages trade performance for the ability to "run anywhere", i.e. linux vs windows, ARM vs intel
subtle hawk
btw is Python JITed or interpreted
There's a version of Python that is JIT
it's called PyPy
I don't know if it's production ready

subtle hawk
Case in point is Google

more of this kind of behavior where they "audit" you and threaten you with fines/lawsuits
subtle hawk
Why isn't Oracle declining
they look like a shitty company
pretty sure startups and new businesses don't use Oracle products
plain mica
yeah which is why they were struggling to gain market share with their cloud
it's expensive to migrate away from Oracle DB, and im sure they have the right contracts with the right company, so im sure they will stick around
and then there are things like GraalVM that may actually secure them a position in the future, since that basically compiles Java and other languages to machine code/assembly.
subtle hawk
With OSS solutions a company can swap support contracts anytime
lol
or do support in house
plain mica
support in house is expensive, because the engineers have to learn the software
like how my team is a de facto support team for Istio and we dont know anything about it :^)

You'd think wired would be cheaper 
My cat bit through my cables
And just the replacement cables cost $100

it's $182 USD, and 1 month old, but im enjoying it so far

oh ye, those are pretty fine for a gaming headset

And since Hyper-V is permanently enabled in Windows 11, I don't think any Android emulator will work on it

Is it fine to install windows 11 without Tpm2.0?

Facebook used to be good in the late 2000s/early 2010s
now it's just cancer
If it weren't for the fact that it helps me network to get a job, I would've deleted my account
plain mica
their policies are a bit predatory
the one that comes to mind that i looked at recently, is being unable to use their API to get content and re-use it outside of their platform
so you can't even do something like read a feed and repost it, like you can with twitter

that's why you color code wiring as well as triple check polarity before plugging in

Only NAS storage I can trust are WD Reds or Seagate's equivalent
Yes
versed blade
Got a my book with 36TB gonna shuckle it
hexed citrus
they're shingled drives
versed blade
Ironwood/Exos don't have a Nas the cost more
hexed citrus
same with seagate ones
subtle hawk
but I'm on private trackers and they pretty much trust reds from what I know
hexed citrus
you want the red pro if you want typical drives
pale pawn
The feeling of buying 36tb of for a mere £500
y not 5tb in nvme storage 
versed blade
Not really
subtle hawk
subtle hawk
they're data hoarders so I assume they picked the best drives for their shit
hexed citrus
ramzh their entire lineup of reds are SMR
versed blade
Like 8TB=>
hexed citrus
only red pro are the normals now
subtle hawk
since when
I bought mine in 2018
I only use it to store anime
I don't run it often
hexed citrus
well then you won't notice it
SMR drives start being a pain when you need to rewrite something on them
so if you fill them once then just read it's fine
subtle hawk
It's basically a WD Red that I converted into an external drive using an enclosure
subtle hawk
I almost bought a WD Purple because it was cheaper
versed blade
Dw what purples are tbh
subtle hawk
they're for CCTVs
subtle hawk
so they're write focused
versed blade
Seagate stuff as it doesn't come in preinstalled Nas cost more
hexed citrus
pro and plus are CMR
versed blade
Idk I got 12TB ones all I know they are CMR all that matters to me 
subtle hawk
I want to seed at home instead of relying on an online seedbox
subtle hawk
Ramzh, are you running unRaid
subtle hawk
red - 229 euros
red+ - 242 euros
red pro - 287 euros
ill probably wait for prices to come down lol
im not in a hurry anyways

Chia mining is still a lot isn't?

subtle hawk
how old
versed blade
I only have external that are spare now I don't what to use them for tho
Kinda too small like all 1TB-4TB
Any idea how to use them
subtle hawk
Before I bought my 8 TB, I had two 2 TB drives
at one point the data was mirrored
but i decided to say fuck it and use the other one to store more anime
versed blade
Grippie are you running unraid
subtle hawk
nope
I just copy paste anime into my drive
my WD red is a glorified external drive thanks to the enclosure that I bought
for seeding torrents, I have a seedbox
versed blade
Nice
subtle hawk
I wanted to buy a MyBook but I heard the data is unreadable if it was shucked and plugged directly
versed blade
Idk I was thinking to run some @home stuff but need high upload Which the this shit country doesn't have
subtle hawk
because the controller for the MyBook scrambles the data apparently
versed blade
Don't even know why
subtle hawk
you on private trackers?
versed blade
Some
subtle hawk
AB?
versed blade
Nah been trying to get an invite for like ages same as BakaBT
subtle hawk
I'd invite Fish there if I could
oh, BBT is interview only
got in there when they abandoned the blacklist
versed blade
Didn't know there was one
Friend of mine told me it was invite only but that was 3-4 years ago
subtle hawk
I was on AHD until it rip
versed blade

gloomy tinsel
@versed blade casually bluestack opens up and loading azur lane
idk I think task manager bugged
versed blade
was wondering
gloomy tinsel
because my nvme ssd is rated for 2800 or 3800 something like that
versed blade
cant remember something like that happening except when windows svchost bugged or whatnot

best way to end the task is to take out the battery/psu at this point /s
versed blade
well i added psu

now that i think of I actually need to rebuild my pc due to the frontal mic jack giving issue with hissing sounds. Probably a power cable running there or something
idk I have AsRock and love mine
versed blade
idk I have just the Taichi
and for the nas got the pro4 mAtx
AsRock iirc was a sub brand of asus so the quality is there imo
also not too overpriced
however next build will be fully asus just because their aura-sync too good

I'm so used to Linux CLI
i feel ya
subtle hawk
You use Arch Linux?
versed blade
lol nope
subtle hawk
I (used to) use arch btw
versed blade
use Debain based most of the time
subtle hawk
nice
versed blade
did use Manjaro/Arch for a while
Arch more to try the installation than anything else
it was fun
subtle hawk
kinda sad that we can't run Android apps on Linux
also Arch was a learning experience for me
subtle hawk
I learned how the file system, etc. worked
made me more interested in Unix in general
I should do Gentoo next
gloomy tinsel
I wanted an AIO too
fck it fan cooler did better job
AIO good aesthethic
not sure spelling it
subtle hawk
I'm legit scared if the AIO starts leaking
versed blade
made me more interested in Unix in general
same same
never tried gentoo and not planning to tbh
i have an aio and it's fine
plain mica
I should learn the Windows commandline more ngl
windows command-line is ergonomically bad imo, powershell is reasonable (and also runs on linux)
versed blade
ngl I hate both and use ubuntu terminal to do my stuff on windows
shame I cant have it as default
plain mica
i ended up writing a handful of utility pwsh scripts to run on my ubuntu server 😅
we have a 2k line bash script at work, i hate it
there's also weird edge cases with arrays in bash, which makes it painful to write large scripts
subtle hawk
With WSL being a thing, I wonder what's the use case for Cygwin now
maybe pure POSIX on Windows?
plain mica
POSIX shell doesn't support arrays 🙃
versed blade
I just checked the price for one of these and it's £500
got the my book with two of them for £508
I feel like a thief
versed blade
<@!208966866683559936> I have a couple of those that are being tested
niceeee
I still need to check few more hdds but cant find a decent mybook deal
this was a steal
tho my ocd is telling me to buy more 18TB instead of 12TB as planned now
subtle hawk
@versed blade are you doing a RAID 10 
versed blade
well if you want to RAID them yes
was thinking to move them to unraid tbh
I think OMV MergeFS+snapRaid should be able to achieve the same
but didnt look into it yet
versed blade
ah no no
just waiting for more but prices kinda yikes
moreover my psu isnt here yet
versed blade
they do but with unraid/mergeFS+SR size doesnt matter
as long as the biggest drive is for mirroring

quartz atlas
the bleed is really not that severe tbh, but if you really want closed backs, you cant go wrong with EPOS line and beyerdynamic
tho depends on the model u get for BD
u might need an amp
since iirc some of those are hard to drive
hexed citrus
the audio card in my rig has a RC4580 op amp
it do be chonk
it can drive 80 ohm headphones ez
quartz atlas
The DT770 Pro requires an amp to run it properly. If you still want the DT770 pro but can’t get an amp or travel a lot, the 32 ohm version may be better for you.
oh then thats great then
you know what you're doing
hexed citrus
ye I was eyeing the DT 770 pros for a while
