They don’t even quote video games, they quote like what Andrew Tate said on tiktok

Guys, I'm in a really unexpected situation. I ordered a computer with a new egg back on March 22nd.
I ordered it on presale so I've been waiting for the last few days for it to be in stock and for the seller to give me a shipping date. On the 28th I got a message that the payment didn't go through, I went to the bank and told them it was my payment so they could charge me. I was happy and just waited. Yesterday I spent the whole day communicating with the seller directly through the mail, so they just said they were waiting for information from new egg to update my order status and confirm payment. I continued to wait

This morning I tried to log into my account to believe the order status and I just couldn't. When I enter my email I get the message "Oops! There's an issue with your account. If you'd like us to look into this for you, please click here."
I filled out this form but it takes 2 business days to process and I just don't know what's going on with my order and money. Has anyone encountered this? This is my first time on a new egg and I don't understand anything yet. I paid $2200 and exactly one day after being charged I can't log into my account.

@digital thunder

I'm very confused right now because I've seen some bad reviews on reddit but I not believed what I saw and thought it was a spoof.

[wary fjord]

send a message to them not here

they wont read that here

@digital thunder dm them

[coral sand]

Idk where i can sent bcs My site is limited to this caption

[wary fjord]

non of this earthlings here work at newegg

the one u tagged

u can dm them

about ur concern

🙂

[coral sand]

Got it. I texted them thank you. I'm really scared because it looks like I'm a total dummy who got scammed out of $2,200

No problems logging in before I didn't pay

[wary fjord]

it will get sort out dont worry.. 2 grand is too small for newegg worth 🙂

prepare ur recipts and stuff i guess if they replied back

[sinful blade]

If you can get it returned to your account, we can help you build the computer for cheaper than buying a prebuilt. Just a little bit of waiting.

[coral sand]

I noticed they refunded my money. I'm not sure what the reason is because all I did was create an account, order a computer and wait. Then I got a statement from the bank that they did get my money and now I got the full amount back and my account is suspended.

Why did this happen?

[coral sand]

Thanks, man. I'm actually terrible at building pc's so I found a good offer that apparently I won't get. I waited almost two weeks for this.

[dusk knot]

Ghost ping

[sinful blade]

Hey, listen.
I know pc building may be confusing, but it’s literally like building a Lego set.

All the pieces usually just snap in.

I’m oversimplifying, but it really does boil down to that. You save hundreds of dollars by just DIY

@coral sand what would be your budget?

[wooden marten]

Thats a perfect comparison

[coral sand]

I'll just show you what I bought and what the dude on the other server advised me, after which I definitely decided that there was no point in building a computer
I buy https://www.newegg.com/yeyian-ypi-pg37f0c-48s1n-phoenix-glass/p/N82E16883630056?Item=N82E16883630056
His construction https://pcpartpicker.com/list/GhGN7R :с

[coral sand]

2200$

I need a rtx video card, no other, that's the problem

I'm just terribly upset about the egg situation. I really sat on a powder keg for two weeks to get what I paid for and I ended up getting banned

[sinful blade]

Might I ask what server he was from?

Also, lemme get you a build made up.

[coral sand]

I had already left that server because I realized I wouldn't find help there I found them through pk build guides, can't remember where actually. I'll try to find it and send it to you in private messages

[wooden marten]

You can easily fit a powerful one in that budget

[sinful blade]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/VnJBt7

Saved you $200 and upgraded along the way

Almost 200**

Suggest a pc is fine, they just suggest prebuilts a lot

The 7800x3d is a very cool cpu, so you don’t need a fancy AIO cooler for it

[wooden marten]

Man I could have gotten a g360a instead

and saved some money

[sinful blade]

That case is with a rebate

[wooden marten]

Amazon

[sinful blade]

Ah

[coral sand]

I can't buy anything from the new egg

[coral sand]

AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 4.2 GHz 8-Core Processor
I'm not sure about ryzen because my acquaintances had a lot of problems with it I was thinking about Intel Core

Long story short, I'm in a panic with $2,200 in my pocket

I recently moved to America and I still don't understand why having money you can't just buy what you need, you have to go through a ton of problems where you are denied and blocked for wanting to buy something DAMN

https://tenor.com/view/good-morning-funny-animals-insomnia-cat-tired-crazy-cute-gif-4548358857953075454

The most frustrating part isn't even how it works, it's that I waited two weeks and now the price of the computer has gone up and I got a refund. So my order was canceled and my account was blocked because someone wanted it that way

[sinful blade]

This ryzen has the best possible gaming performance on the market. It’s guaranteed to be great.

Most of the parts can be bought from other stores such as Amazon or b&h

Intel would work better if you were doing serious workloads; but it offers poorer performance for gaming.

I sent you message with discord channel

If you want to save a few bucks, the 4070TI super is still more than enough

[sinful blade]

Used to be a 30 days policy if no one claims it. It yours.

[idle nexus]

what on earth did they charge her with?

[pure flax]

Cat nip maybe.

[idle nexus]

but I read it on the internet so def true

[wary fjord]

yeah

she got tons of jewerly

on her house

belongs to several neigbors

she should melt every jewerly she got xD then turn it into solid bar

[idle nexus]

the original story was written by some guy named Jay who somehow made a bunch of fans believe RAM doesn't matter

65 fans iirc ya

[pure flax]

Somehow it had to be in my state I was born in.

[idle nexus]

lol it didn't actually happen

[wary fjord]

hmm

free 500 bucks

[pure flax]

Weird stuff always going on in Ohio.

[idle nexus]

by "Michigan" do they mean "Detroit?"

plus $500 nowadays covers a month of gas & like 8 dinners at McDonald's

[pure flax]

I pay 386 a month on rent with housing. My rent is 845 per month.

[idle nexus]

if anyone was thinking of doing a Sonic PC build with that Sonic Asrock board, this is your sign to get on it lol

[pure flax]

I have a 420 mm rad on my computer.

[idle nexus]

360mm copper radiator for $35 is crazy cheap

[pure flax]

With an LCD screen on the pump.

The only issue is my storage is getting full. Need at least 8TB of storage.

[idle nexus]

nice nice is that Thermaltake P3?

[pure flax]

Yes. The newer one.

[idle nexus]

niice

I love Thermaltake haha

my daily is View71

I had to drill some holes to mount it but I put 400mm (2x200mm) side rad to be obnoxious haha

[pure flax]

Also what happened to disc storage.

[idle nexus]

what cooler is that with a 420mm radiator?

[pure flax]

Thermal take.

[idle nexus]

time for NAS ig lol

MX2?

[pure flax]

Th420 V2 ultra.

[idle nexus]

nice

you should hop on Thermaltake Live on Wednesdays on twitch

it's my wednesday ritual lol

[pure flax]

I would have to check that out. I’m still running am4 with an ryzen 7 5800x3d.

[idle nexus]

I'm hoping I can use a TT W7+ in the build I've been spending way too much time being frustrated by

I haven't really figured out how I can use it to direct die cool CPU yet tho cuz the direct die frame doesn't work with X3D CPUs apparently

[pure flax]

64gb of ddr4 ram 3200mhz.

[idle nexus]

nice

[pure flax]

Was at 2400 mhz.

[idle nexus]

I tried running 64gb on 5900x but 4 DIMMs got too hot lol

[pure flax]

My Xbox series X has 11tb of storage. More then my PC.

[idle nexus]

plus it was two different sets & didn't look right

how many M.2s does your board support?

[pure flax]

Just two gen4 and gen3.

[idle nexus]

you might be able to put one of those PCIe card things to add M.2s but it'll like drop your GPU to x8 PCIe

I think that's the same as my B550 supported

[pure flax]

I have two GPU a rx480 and rx6800XT.

[idle nexus]

can't really do much besides SATA drives unless you wanna shell out the $ for like 4tb M.2s

[pure flax]

I was going to get a Sata 8Tb for cheaper from Samsung.

[idle nexus]

I think there are a couple TeamGroup M.2s that are 4tb for alright price

[pure flax]

If I did the NVMe 8tb I would of paid an extra 500.

[idle nexus]

what do you do that benefits from two different GPUs like that?

[pure flax]

Crypto mining.

[idle nexus]

what coin is worth mining now? All I've heard is high core count AM5 CPUs can be profitable but didn't know it was really worth doing for GPU anymore

[pure flax]

I just use nicehash miner.

Kvava.

[sour falcon]

BAXTER STOCKFLYYYY

[idle nexus]

I wouldn't say this is cheap exactly but for 4tb eh

PCIe 3.0 eh

[sour falcon]

the 4tb i was looking at went up to 300

it was like 249 for like 4 months straight

[idle nexus]

< $20 more for PCIe gen 4 seems worth it

thing is tho, if you're gonna put up that much $ for 4tb drive, might as well go a little further for a good one imo

[pure flax]

I don't think 4TB is enough for my 150 games library.

[idle nexus]

eh maybe not that's like another $100 or so

[tranquil pebble]

I should buy that ngl

[idle nexus]

heck this is nice but $300 ouch

[sour falcon]

nm790

[pure flax]

I pick western digital 850x 4TB.

[idle nexus]

if I ever finish this build I'm gonna use an SN850 for Windows drive

unfortunately the one I have is only 1tb tho lol

[pure flax]

I think it like 260 on Amazon.

[sour falcon]

Because I’m excessive

(301.64)

[idle nexus]

I was probably gonna pull the 1tb Hynix P41 from benching setup too

damn Hynix P41 1TB is $90 rn

2tb $140

I think there's a Sabrent Rocket gen 4 1tb I can pull from benching setup & use too

[sour falcon]

Should’ve boughten it last year :/

[idle nexus]

just kinda seems silly to have 4 1tb drives tho

[sour falcon]

I don’t understand the point of raid

[idle nexus]

the most compelling reason to do that is I already own them lol

[pure flax]

Or two 4tb drive.

[idle nexus]

depends on what you're trying to do with it

like iirc RAID 1 is like treating two drives as a single drive so system can pull from two sources at the same time

RAID with a higher number is for redundency

like in a server

so if you have an array with like 4 drives & one fails, you can replace it & restore everything

[pure flax]

I have never had my Drive failed on me. Western digital last a very long time.

[idle nexus]

makes more sense for like massive storage HDDs

or for RAID 0 it made more sense back when SSDs were expensive enough that people used HDDs for gaming & what not

like if you're stuck using HDDs that have read speeds around like 100-150mb/s

running them in RAID meant you could access data quicker in a noticeable way

nowadays even relatively inexpensive M.2s like that 1tb Hynix P41 top out at like 7000mb/s

so putting two of those in RAID wouldn't really make sense

cuz with speeds like that, I doubt even a single P41 would ever be the bottleneck, let alone, two of them in RAID

[pure flax]

I never used raid. Before.

[idle nexus]

I have (kinda randomly) 5 or 6 of these PNY SSDs that are only 250gb

I tried to set up RAID just to try it for a benchmark on hwbot but they ended up being way too slow anyway lol

[pure flax]

I'm kind of scared of using raid because of data loss.

[idle nexus]

I think it's really only worth doing for enterprise/data centers with insane amounts of data on HDDs or just for redundency so you don't lose data

[pure flax]

Right on.

[idle nexus]

I mean, unless you're gonna run HDDs, probably not worth the time & effort

plus I think you basically cut the total storage in half doing it

like I'm pretty sure if you had two 8TB HDDs in RAID0, the computer wouldn't only see the two as a single 8TB storage device

[pure flax]

I have an extra ryzen 5600 and 3600 but need a new motherboard for it.

To build a server PC.

[idle nexus]

you couldn't probably get one pretty heckin cheap on ebay or something

like even B450 or something

[pure flax]

I was thinking 450. Or 550.

[idle nexus]

heck I think even x370 & b350 support Zen 3

I dunno if you even need to go with something that old. B550 new is like $140

[pure flax]

My old 450 broke on me when removing the m.2 because I brick the board.

[rich burrow]

will my cpu fan be ok without the rgb cable?

[idle nexus]

$100

[rich burrow]

i don’t have a 4 pin on my motherboard

[idle nexus]

yes

[rich burrow]

alr i might just tuck it under my heat sink

[idle nexus]

don't try to plug it into the 3-pin. It would plug in but be a really bad idea lol

which board?

[pure flax]

I want to go with asus or gigabyte.

[rich burrow]

b450m gaming plus asus

[idle nexus]

well not as bad as if you managed to plug a 3-pin into a 4-pin cuz 3-pin is 5v argb & 4-pin is 12v rgb

[rich burrow]

oh

can i get like a converter?

like a 4 pin to 3 pin

does that exist

[pure flax]

Yes

[idle nexus]

tbh I've never tried to find one but I'd imagine they exist... you might just do better replacing the fan tbh

the 12v rgb isn't addressable

[pure flax]

I was thinking of power supply cable one 8 pins to two six pins.

[idle nexus]

like you can't have it just turn, e.g., LED number 48 to purple or something

which you can do with the 3-pin argb

cuz 4-pin pinout is actually wire 1 red, wire 2 green, wire 3 blue, & wire 4 negative

whereas 3-pin is just positive, negative, data

not necessarily in that order but the point being that 4-pin is like analog where colors are made by increasing intensity of r, g, or b

3-pin actually has a data signal telling each LED what combination of r, g, & b to run

[idle nexus]

in any event, it looks like your board has 2 4-pin 12v rgb headers

[rich burrow]

oof

ima see if the fan spins

yeah my pc is gonna explode

oh well

my fans started speeding up

oh crap

[sour falcon]

https://open.spotify.com/track/5dHsj8f5cd4Q0dB49qsLWK?si=20568ff047ab4efa

https://open.spotify.com/track/2wgBBqtX5x2UfcJItChy3H?si=188c5272bf2a4ca8

woot woot

[idle nexus]

that's normal. They speed up when CPU gets hotter (basically when it does anything but sit there) & slow down when it's cooler

[rich burrow]

oh

wait what?

[sour falcon]

mine ramp up when i launch opera gx

[rich burrow]

my rgb and fan is working

so what is the other 3 pin for

what the heck

[idle nexus]

is it a separate cable or part of the same cable?

cuz could be for "daisy chain" meaning you can connect additional fans directly to that fan instead of having to connect each fan to motherboard header

[rich burrow]

separate i think

it’s just a regular 3 pin connecter i’m guessing the actual cable for the cpu fan is all in one i guess

[idle nexus]

btw I couldn't find a cheaper one of these but I'm sure they exist. I have one of these. It connects to your motherboard on one of the USB 2.0 headers & you can control RGB from software in windows. the Razer software itself is pretty decent for controlling rgb but it also installs all sorts of unnecessary crap. I never install the Razer software & use OpenRGB to control it instead https://www.amazon.com/Razer-Chroma-Addressable-Controller-Compatibility/dp/B08K3TYWP6/ref=sr_1_1?

[rich burrow]

alright

[idle nexus]

but something like that would give you a place to install up to 6 rgb devices & control up to 80 lights with it

[rich burrow]

btw i have the cooler master 212 halo white

my cpu fan

[idle nexus]

okay it has two different cables coming off of the fan itself

that's the one that controls the fan

[elfin mural]

ah yes

[rich burrow]

ohhh

[elfin mural]

the hyper 212

[rich burrow]

wait so i can’t use software on it?

[elfin mural]

cooler design from over a decade ago

you can use software to control fan speed

or within the bios

[idle nexus]

the other connection is 3-pin aRGB

which is the one in the dude's hand there

it'll have like two circles right next to each other then a space & one more circle if you're looking straight at it

[rich burrow]

alright

[idle nexus]

since your board only has 4-pin rgb 12v, you can't connect the argb lights

something simple like this can connect to SATA power from your PSU & make the fan light up https://www.amazon.com/ZCZQC-Controller-Plastic-Supply-Stripe/dp/B09HGJRNTQ/ref=sr_1_1?

the problem is, the only way to control it would be pressing the buttons on this thing

to answer your earlier question, something like this could convert 12v from the motherboard to 5v for argb. You could use motherboard software or connect it to the reset switch on your PC case but neither is a great option since it wouldn't really give you full functionality the way an rgb hub controlled by software thru usb would

[elfin mural]

for a sec i thought zotac made an argb controller

[idle nexus]

heck even this tiny thing is like $30 https://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Addressable-Small-Controller/dp/B07HQ9RG9N/ref=sr_1_1?

& speaking from experience, CoolerMaster's RGB software is terrible

dunno if OpenRGB could control it offhand

it's actually kind of annoying how few things there are to do this lol

ehh you might do better getting fans that include a usb hub

[elfin mural]

@mortal grail i saw your comment on that gn case vid

[hollow ferry]

Meta quest 3 worth?

[mortal grail]

LOL

[elfin mural]

liked it btw

[mortal grail]

Thx, didn't expect it to explode

[idle nexus]

instead of spending $30+ on a device that will let you control the fan on your CPU cooler only, you could get three fans that match your CPU cooler fan for $61 and include a hub that can connect to your motherboard & be controlled with CM software. CM decided to be stingy & only put 3 argb connections on the heckin argb controller, but each fan has an argb extender, so if any two are next to each other they can share & you can use one of three connections for your CPU fan argb

[elfin mural]

id say yes for vr

[idle nexus]

(picture of device on the left shows 3 argb headers, you'd have to connect two fans to a single header using argb extender thing to make all 4 work)

[hollow ferry]

I might be able to cop one for less than 400

So I was he

*jw

[idle nexus]

(middle picture of device shows USB Micro connection that should be able to connect to USB 2.0 header on your motherboard so you can control it with software in Windows)

[elfin mural]

that's a decent price

[idle nexus]

I have Quest 1. It was cool but I never really found a game I really wanted to play. Might be worth it as long as you'll play it. I know that sounds dumb but it was always my biggest limitation with it lol

[elfin mural]

dad stuff

they all play rpg games

[hollow ferry]

I was honestly waiting for the tech to be like it is now

No clue what I’ll play tho

[wary fjord]

Changes in team overtime

Probably who ported it is new interns

[tranquil pebble]

must be some pretty awful changes

[wary fjord]

Doubt they still work on that timeframe

[wary fjord]

I just realized its not the same game lol. I thought both are most wanted

But the logic still applies

The original team responsible for it probably is long gone xD now they just let the new team do their thing. Now we have this.

Nfs heat is beautiful tho

Still playing it

[pliant berry]

why does this only ever happen to me on windows https://i.imgur.com/4PNzvfY.png

[pure flax]

China gonna banned that keyboard from entering the country.

[mental yoke]

One of the prohibited import list in China states: any goods that is harmful to China's economics, culture and morals

[velvet summit]

This happens to me sometimes when I plug a drive in, I click repair drive, and then it says no errors found

[mental yoke]

And most high end GPUs and CPUs especially those involving AI are also sanctioned by the US government so they can't enter China too

[wary fjord]

just clean the pins

xD

my sdcard does that on my phone

keep rubbing the pins till it doesnt show anymore xD

but i dont know if that works on you

[pliant berry]

It did that to me when I tried opening the card in photo mechanic

The funniest thing is that they are made by the same game developer but most of the core people who made the 2012 game left

I can see why alot of AAA devs are looking into engines like UE5

Since they expect people to already know about it instead of teaching them their inhouse engine over and over again

Sorry to cut in I do not hold political opinions on this

[pliant berry]

is there a way in windows to use pen pressure but not use windows ink

[mortal grail]

pencil

[pliant berry]

[mortal grail]

before you start googling I'm joking

[wary fjord]

only if u use surface

[pliant berry]

bruh

[velvet summit]

wdym

like, an app that can use pen pressure?

[pliant berry]

like to use an app with pressure like clip studio, photoshop. but windows needs ink enabled to use pressure. ink sucks cuz sometimes it will lock the mouse on initial contact

[velvet summit]

hmm

[wary fjord]

u have to configure that in app

i think

it will overide what windows going on in life xD

[pliant berry]

also I never realized how different image rendering is in windows.. this is borderline unusable

[wary fjord]

once u set it up

blender so fun

with pen

[pliant berry]

I never really did learn much of blender yet

I started donut tutorial at one point

[mental yoke]

I can't even afford Photoshop the good old single product one time purchase is gone they all now require cloud subscription

[pliant berry]

yeah it really sucks for home users

[mental yoke]

Professionals: We are rich we don't care
Home users and individual creators: NO

[mortal grail]

Just do a me

Get free alternative

[elfin mural]

^

[pliant berry]

well no for pros it's pretty cheap cuz it's a tool that makes you money and you no longer have to pay hundreds a year to keep everything up to date. instead you can pay 100-300usd ish a year to keep everything up to date

unless you are the type of person to just never update anything

[elfin mural]

it's truly ass when adobe blocks old versions tho

[pliant berry]

that I agree is stupid

[mental yoke]

The early cancellation fee is hefty some Aussie dude got charged hundreds of Australian dollars for early cancellation for annual sub

[elfin mural]

old versions shouldn't be blocked even if it's cancelled

[pliant berry]

yeah there is a reason they separate annual and monthly billing cycles

[mental yoke]

For students it's only annually and for all products plus cloud very poor UX

[pliant berry]

what?

[mental yoke]

Yes in Canada

[pliant berry]

student discounts are not annual only

[mortal grail]

If you mean just photoshop yeah

[pliant berry]

oh maybe in canada

[mortal grail]

If you mean the gamut I disagree tho

I've been convinced at this point davinci resolve is genuinely better

[pliant berry]

The only big complaint I have with adobe is probably how stingy they've been lately. I share my sub with someone and we both use different sets of apps. recently started getting flagged "unusual account activity your account only supports 2 computers 1 user please upgrade"

[mortal grail]

Can only have two devices on the account yep

[mental yoke]

They explicitly prohibit account sharing in ToS except as permitted and it is not just Adobe

[mortal grail]

No one cares about that tho

[pliant berry]

yeah only now they are saying, oh you are using both devices at once?? no no you can't do that

[mortal grail]

You pay basically enterprise fees at this point

It's ridiculous

[mortal grail]

I used to pay like half of what it got up to this year when I stopped

And I'm not going back

Half was like only a few years ago too

2021?

[pliant berry]

rn im paying like 30usd/month. If it was just me id get the 10/month PS and LR bundle

[mortal grail]

That's still quite a lot

If you don't use it for your job

[wary fjord]

have u seen krita ai yet @pliant berry

[mortal grail]

And even then, davinci

But davinci doesn't have a ps equivalent

Who even uses lightroom anyway when they know how to use photoshop? Lol

[pliant berry]

yeah but then again no one is saying you need ps for home use. there are many alternatives out there

[wary fjord]

a real artist will draw on ms paint

xD

and still lvl with bob ross in realism

[pliant berry]

for field work about 90% of your work is in lightroom with the other 10% in PS

[mortal grail]

Just use photoshop

[crude wolf]

https://tenor.com/view/elsword-gif-27268482

[mortal grail]

It's literally photoshop lite

[pliant berry]

photoshop is too slow when you are trying to batch edit 100-500 photos. lightroom is good for skimming and preset editing

[crude wolf]

depending on how good your gpu/cpu is

[pliant berry]

photoshop you only really use if you need some more advanced correction or editing

[mortal grail]

Maybe I'm just different

[crude wolf]

or deception if you a con artist

[wary fjord]

felix is built different

[pliant berry]

nah it's just the workflow really. cuz it takes time to open a raw in photoshop and get all the settings. lightroom you don't have to worry about opening photos one at a time

[elfin mural]

im not an artist but i see a ton of artists i know use ps

[pliant berry]

I made the mistake once of editing one event with photoshop only, took me like 10 hours to get through everything because of all the opening and closing of tabs

[elfin mural]

.psd files are so common

but then again

not like exporting in .psd is ps exclusive lol

[mortal grail]

This is not the normal thing to do???

I will sit down and make each image I pick as good as it can get

[mighty hazel]

Idk about photoshop but on premiere it takes surprisingly little time to export even on gtx cards

[crude wolf]

Thats the same in blender

you make a mistake in blender

[mighty hazel]

It’s like a minute difference between a 1070 and a 3080

[crude wolf]

you spend hours redoing the edit you accidentally made

[mortal grail]

Apples to oranges tbh

[wary fjord]

you can run photoshop to use your gpu for hardware acceleration than ur cpu

[mighty hazel]

I guess video editing isn’t too tough

[pliant berry]

I think that's really just the difference of casual vs pro. trust me when you take anywhere from 500-2000 images a day you aren't trying to perfect every single one xD

[elfin mural]

id think using an ipad+procreate is better for artists

you literally pay once for the app

[crude wolf]

better than a subscription

[mortal grail]

I mean I'm not going to just change 500 at once, I rather pick from the 500

Then edit one by one

[mighty hazel]

My iPad crashes on the video editing app for some reason

Not enough ram I guess :/

[pliant berry]

procreate is a little too simple for some people from what I've seen. a more complete competitor would probably be clip studio since they also have 1 time licenses

[mortal grail]

I'm also a perfectionist at heart

[elfin mural]

hm ye

i mean clip studio is also on ipad

[mortal grail]

So really calling it casual vs pro is a bit misrepresented

It's just the way we do things, we prefer different approaches

[wary fjord]

it takes time until u find the software you really comfortable with

then it has performance issue

xD

[crude wolf]

you gonna be doing more complex stuff

And you gonna have to store more projects

[mortal grail]

I'm so used to PS I can pump out a pic in 15 minutes or I can sit down for hours making it perfect, I just don't see the appeal in batch editing

[crude wolf]

or make a Ai generated photo and spend less time making it good enough for the eye

[pliant berry]

it's just that when you do it for a job you realize how much workflow can impact turnaround time.
I have a paid app now that is solely for panning through images and rating them, but that is a stupid investment for vast majority of people. I only got it because it saved me a few hours a day in waiting for render times

[mortal grail]

Call me weird idk

[mighty hazel]

Wasn’t Adobe suing people for using an older version 💀

[mortal grail]

I mean if you're really filtering that many

[mighty hazel]

Wasn’t even an old one it was like the previous one

[mortal grail]

Maybe

Has to be a buttload of rapid shutter tho

[wary fjord]

when something repetitive u really gonna go in batch route

xD

or make a script for it

[mortal grail]

I mean I make this argument for PC recc's

[crude wolf]

Become a coder

[mortal grail]

I often bring up threadripper, gen 5 ssd's etc

For people that genuinely you can see the need

[crude wolf]

and make your own panning software

Or just make a Ai

[pliant berry]

yeah, I thought it was stupid but when you start going through so many I realized lightroom's image renderer just took too long for that. Usually I have to filter through and edit a batch in about an hour or 2

[crude wolf]

that can go through hundreds of images faster

[sinful blade]

Gimme your crayons

[crude wolf]

You look like a marker

[mortal grail]

I haven't ever really found myself at the point where I'd lose hours through filtering

[sinful blade]

https://tenor.com/view/the-big-bang-theory-true-its-funny-because-its-true-sheldon-cooper-gif-17858348

[mortal grail]

Not really the kind of person to snap every pic I see tho

[pliant berry]

yeah that's why it's a really niche program

[wary fjord]

use GAN for image + Reinforcement Learning train ai to do your job xD

[mortal grail]

I graduated from that ages ago lol

[mortal grail]

I guess

Though you know what grinds my gears

When people boast that they edited with lightroom

Not what you're saying

But you know when people share

[crude wolf]

there will still be people looking for the perfect angle

[mortal grail]

It's just like "ok yeah you put basic filters on like it's instagram"

Well done lmao

[pliant berry]

lightroom presets are also advertised everywhere. it's annoying

[mortal grail]

100% me

[wary fjord]

lightroom is magic xD

[crude wolf]

is it that you have your pay for it

[pliant berry]

Though I've seen some presets that are actually really useful

[crude wolf]

They probably some opportunists

[pliant berry]

most of the time yeah

[crude wolf]

Just like the crypto wave

[pliant berry]

I wish there were good lightroom alternatives. The only one I could find really was capture one but that costs a fortune compared to lightroom

[mortal grail]

I feel like google would probably have something for that

[wary fjord]

all alternative i see is just ai xD

https://skylum.com/luminar

[mortal grail]

Seems like the sort of thing they'd care about

There are some great photoshop alternatives out there

[elfin mural]

ai is such a cringe buzzword everyone and their dog likes to use these days

[mortal grail]

Tho they really are just alternatives

Nothing truly competitive unless you spend

[elfin mural]

before this it was smart

iot

[pliant berry]

I've looked for a while but there honestly isn't much. I see luminar used a lot but more often I see it used with lightroom not in place of lol

[elfin mural]

smartphone?

AI phone

[pliant berry]

AI phones are the future now

[wary fjord]

tesla helping america become dystopian

[wary fjord]

[elfin mural]

[wary fjord]

[mortal grail]

So many things I want to say but I'd be breaking the rules

[elfin mural]

rockets that explode

[mortal grail]

Lol

[elfin mural]

[pliant berry]

[elfin mural]

100%

[mighty hazel]

Did u hear about that ev that launched the drive into the sky

[wary fjord]

its just human snap alot

xD

[elfin mural]

one big company able to control people's brains?

nothing could go wrong

im sure

[mighty hazel]

They took psy op to a new level

[wary fjord]

when they snap they are intimidating.. hard to approach so when teacher says "any questions?" they just "no maam"

[mortal grail]

My tl;dr is agree but like, the things I'd say to get there would break all the political rules

[mighty hazel]

Yea this

[elfin mural]

LMAO

ai generated?

[mighty hazel]

No

Some say it also hit someone crossing the road 😭

It launches both drivers and people on the street

[elfin mural]

that's a driver fault

[mortal grail]

I have no idea about this incident

[elfin mural]

not car fault

[wary fjord]

does it have parachute atleast?

[pliant berry]

I love it when apps that have already existed for a while just rebrand themselves as "ai" apps

[elfin mural]

now im not keen about chinese cars as well

[mortal grail]

I think james bond's one did

[wary fjord]

i take that as a no

[elfin mural]

[wary fjord]

those chair where it punchture the middle if u put a lot load on it when u land on those chair from being throw way up high xD goodbyte

[mighty hazel]

Yeah it launched a pedestrian and the driver too 😭

[mortal grail]

The other day I heard that some CN brands are failing the car tests here completely, 0 star safety out of 5

Lowest they've ever been

[elfin mural]

in the mg's defense

it lacked active safety

[mortal grail]

It was common place to get at least 1.5 - 2 stars

[elfin mural]

the crash itself was ok enough

[mortal grail]

But therein lies the issue
