I still dont quite know the setup of your accounts. Like, whether you use family profiles and how spanish traces can be tied to said accounts. I would recommend using a new profile in a browser, or a browser that is good at stopping fingerprinting issues, and then resetting the accounts in every way possible (deleting and making new family profiles is an example).
sage sluice
And the fact you dont click that stuff doesnt make it realize "oh maybe i should stop recommending that"

This is all on a TV really, and it was made by my mom who is white and watched everything in English. We really have nothing that should tie my mom and I to it. My father has been passed for a while before we ever made these accounts, and even he, a native Mexican, never watched anything in Spanish

I guess I only have one other theory. I assume email for account was your dads. Is there anything the email gets used for consistently that profiles it as an english user? I dont know if just using another service that has already had the email in use does much, I'd assume you might need to actually browse with the email logged into the browser for full effects of profiling. Cuz if the streaming service cant really get any recent profiling from the email, which I'd assume be the most important profiling vector (apart from watched/previewed/searched/etc content), then it might rely on the other stuff like names.

It's mom email, not my father's. Mom has had it for over 20 years, and she's not connected to anything Spanish or Mexican attached to her. It's even started doing it on my profiles as well. I know many people around me who are white with Mexican names who are also getting Spanish ads. It's so annoying, and such a huge waste of advertising money

More like 30+% in some things

I had a 3060ti, and it was a solid card limited by not having enough memory

Also, a lot of 3060 prebuilts have the 8gb card

Doesnt intel have ai cards?
fair onyx
Not any that are worth anything

fair onyx
The 3090 is a way better option. But I'd have to spend a considerable amount of money to make that work
fair onyx
That card is just... Such a horrifically overpriced mess
worn wave
Better power consumption
Eh. Power is pretty cheap
fair onyx
No the hell it is not lmao
But I don't care much about the power draw of my second GPU
If I go for a second 3090, I can NVLINK them, which could be huge... But then I need to do a bunch more crap to get that working
worn wave
I guess it depends where you live
fair onyx
Power is extremely expensive here
If I get a 4060ti, I will have 40GB VRAM. If I get the 3090 I will have 48GB
But for the 3090 I would need a new mobo/case/PSU

hi, so i have this issue with game (star citizen) where i keep crashing. now i know to bring up game issues with them etc, but i have had this issue for 3 months and i could not find a fix, even after searching forever. i wanted to come here to find out if it could possibly be a hardware issue and how i can fix it/replace whatever necessary
it crashes randomly upon starting/attempting to load into the game, the error code i get is "supposedly" (according to them) 99% of the time a ram error
i have tried A LOT from disabling/enabling XMP, different profiles, but i didn't try super "techy" thing of messing with the timings as i am not sure how to do that (it could possibly be a timing error)
i tried messing with pcores on cpu and all that stuff, enforcing limits on bios, a whole bunch of stuff
i will send the error code i get, maybe it's something generic that you guys are aware of
Exception EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION(0xC0000005) addr=0x00007FFE69C486F0 digest=7c99a2a66f9e23176b587e93a2415182

the error didn't start after i installed these new sticks (they aren't even new, all of this is like 1-2 years old), the game worked fine before but i will send just in case
sinful blade
But for the 3090 I would need a new mobo/case/PSU
Yeah no, for just 8 extra, nah. Just getting a 3090 is going to be more expensive than just a 4060ti. So you’re adding on so much cost for marginal gains
clear orchid
i assume it's ever slightly so different because CAM says 8GTZR vs 8GTZRN and i assume it's a very small difference
but i bet even if i take out two of the ZRNs and leave the ZRs in, it would still crash
but enough talk, let me take these sticks out, might take me a bit since this prebuilt has wires all over the place
i will be back 😎

Well we'll know soon enough
The install is cooked if neither kit works
No way around wiping windows at that point imo
And I'm gonna clarify this rn
Reset is NOT a fix
Reset reinstalls with corrupted code
The fix is wiping the ssd, and reinstalling with boot media or an iso
clear orchid
or just not playing star citizen again
mortal grail
or just not playing star citizen again
It can impact all parts of your install
So again, you're cooked either way if neither kit works

by the time that happens, i’ll be off to college not needing this anymore 😎

I would try setting vccsa to 1.2v and vccio to 1.15v and setting ram to 1.4v just as a baseline of giving it everything it should need to work

mortal grail
At the least both kits will sell a decent price

Odds are you'll lose no money getting a replacement kit

Not too sure where exactly it is, most likely want to look around in advanced settings

<@278694081440251905> only thing i could find regarding this
CPU system agent voltage is the one

Yes

would that be this?

maybe different setting then
i don’t think this mobo has VCCIO

Man I love coming back home, waking up, and there's grounds in my coffee. Just lovely bruh

I miss having a Keurig bruh
overrated? Sure. Functional asf? absolutely and they're basically a necessity
We switched from a Keurig to a Bunn like whyyyy
icy ore
Oh lord why
icy ore
Keurig is just too convenient
craggy shoal
They said they wanted a clean coffee maker without any mold or whatever else inside. So they decided to invest in the most basic coffee maker that doesn't wake up on its own at a given time, takes forever to brew a whole pot, and still has the same reason as to why we switched from our Keurig anyways (mold and garbage inside)
I have to clean this thing every month. It's not the easiest to open so I don't even bother. Instead, I just run some vinegar down it to clean it out. It's annoying
Basic coffee maker. Yeah that's a good idea
icy ore
Yeah I get the mold reasoning behind it but i think it’s kind of easier to clean the keurig as opposed to the other kind
craggy shoal
That too. And if they wanted to get another coffee maker anyways, why not just get another Keurig?
icy ore
Is this at work?
craggy shoal
Nah this is at home
So I have to wake up and brew the coffee 💀
Sometimes I purposefully wake up before everybody else so someone else can make the coffee so I don't have to

Ahh I was gonna say if it were at work they probably were factoring in cost of kcups

Actually my parents were factoring that cost too

velvet summit
We switched from a Keurig to a Bunn like whyyyy
There are good bunns
craggy shoal
I'm sure most of them are good coffee makers tbh
But we got the most basic one of all
water in, grounds prepared, close lid, it starts brewing
All manual. No automation that heats up the water and starts brewing the coffee to have it ready for when you wake up
Insane to me
velvet summit
Commercial bunns always is preheated
Yes you still have to manually put a filter and grounds into the basket, but you just pour a pre measured (could just use a coffee pot) into the water inlet and it will instantly start brewing
And they're reliable as well
I'm honestly not really a fan of Keurig due to the coffee quality, though with the refillable pods, it's a bit better
But most of the store brought pods suck
craggy shoal
Yeah I would prefer the refillable cups
velvet summit
In terms of pod machines that I do like the coffee quality of, Nespresso does manage to seal in the most aromas, but it's also owned by Nestle so who knows how much child labour was put into it (it's also quite expensive)
craggy shoal
Yikes I didn't know Nestle was one of those types of companies

Well
Nestle did try to hide it but they've been around for so many years
They have openly admitted to not being able to guarantee that there's no child labour involved though
devout forum
to be completely fair
Neither can basically any company at this point
materials used in almost every product is made SOMEWHERE with child labor
velvet summit
Depends on the scale and type of product
I think it's reasonable to be able to guarantee chocolate and coffee to be fair trade
But that often costs a fair bit more for both the company and consumer

@mortal grail hi remember my thing from last night
can upgrading to windows 11 work?
i’m on w10 right now
mortal grail
Hi
unreal trail
hi
mortal grail
Nope
Corrupt windows is corrupt
You can't uncorrupt it
Move the precious stuff off the drive, wipe it, start over on a completely new install
Reset is not an option
Data recovery
Is not an option lol
That windows is very clearly having issues
The windows is being fed it's last rites
It is going from windows to windisn't
It will ex-window
The point of no return went out the window
If this isn't clear enough, there's an additional problem to trying to push forward with a buggered install
And that is lost performance
The corruption will also slow the pc down
This genuinely means you lose FPS from a corrupted install
There could be maybe one other thing, if the pc doesn't crash
If an sfc /scannow succeeds perfectly, it may be possible to fix
But the persisting problem is if you continue to crash, mixed ram is a giveaway
There is a really strong chance that reinstalling will already add 10% or more fps given what looks like major corruption

that's an addon and not the base product
