dawg what

[velvet summit]

You like Huey Lewis and the News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In '87, Huey released this; Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip To Be Square". A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It's also a personal statement about the band itself.

[hoary zodiac]

I really need to ship over my blu ray collection and just completely re-encode them

They were encoded with a 5700xt and the file size is enormous

sigh

I hate hardware encoders

if only past me was smart enough to realise that software encoders produced smaller file sizes with better quality

[gleaming rivet]

That's really cool lol

[hoary zodiac]

ehhhhhh

should I risk re-encoding my mkvs

probably not stupid idea

gonna wait a couple years then I'll re-encode from source when I get my collection shipped over

waste of time and processing power for an inferior version if I re-encoded from the mkv

• I got 8TB of storage and another 8TB drive in reserve so

[lone mango]

What codec was it

[hoary zodiac]

h265 probably?

It was encoded on software

Probably not on the slow preset either

Hardware encoders have some of the worst quality/gb

They're great for streaming and recording youtube videos

But for archiving ehhhhhhh

Im assuming you mean the app on your phone. Most likely not, it would only look for small push notifiers occasionally. I guess I would have to rephrase that. It wouldnt constantly access, only an occasional scan usually with your phones activity settings when it comes to searching for notifiers

No different from recieving a push notifier from a standard cell network

Why do we need to ban TikTok?

ban x first at least

muskie huskie needs to remove himself from the internet and take somehow even worse twitter than it used to be with him

[fresh timber]

TikTok doesn’t track me?? Wotttt

[misty sparrow]

what if tracker isn’t called TikTok

might be stupid but

[sage sluice]

what if tracker is called balou

[remote geode]

I wonder if this is a dead drive

or just a bad connection

[fresh timber]

Then my something million blocked domains will catch it

[misty sparrow]

Ok

[fresh timber]

Kek

TikTok isn’t getting through

I don’t think TikTok even tracks that much

Apple does more than TikTok

Ban Snapchat look at it trying to track

[misty sparrow]

Hm

They’re probably singling TikTok out because China

[fresh timber]

That’s the only reason

[misty sparrow]

bunch of other US companies do the same thing except they get off scot free

Cough cough Google

Google has wayyyyy more data on me

[wind quail]

Smh my head

[misty sparrow]

I mean we already know about the she’s 10 moment but you can probably get away with it

[wind quail]

You got a supendous point (spelling is hard)

[misty sparrow]

stupendous

[mortal grail]

I mean it's not even in my top 5 worst things I've said out of context in Newegg

[wind quail]

I thought i was actually having a fit because I was like felix pfp without techie tf

[velvet summit]

how to know it's not felix: the nickname has felix in it

[mortal grail]

And history corrects itself

[misty sparrow]

@sage sluice can you help me out with a problem with my pc pleaaaaaaaase

[sage sluice]

put a bandaid on it

[craggy shoal]

Boeing and Weary are the same person

[mortal grail]

Ngl I do that more than I'd like to admit

[sage sluice]

who are you again?

[velvet summit]

what's my name again

[misty sparrow]

yeah exactly

[mortal grail]

You guys have short, red names, similar pfp colours

[velvet summit]

wait

[sage sluice]

[velvet summit]

that wasnt how the song went

it was what's my age again

[misty sparrow]

343 probably

[mortal grail]

Not 10

[misty sparrow]

it probably works like Japanese stuff where he’s 343 but looks ten

[pliant berry]

@random osprey

[velvet summit]

unless....

[sage sluice]

pft red is so last year

[mortal grail]

No

[misty sparrow]

yes

[pliant berry]

Ok tgose colors arent that similar

[velvet summit]

lmao

maybe we're just colourblind

[pliant berry]

Yes

[misty sparrow]

or colorblind

two different things

[sage sluice]

as a collective

if only we were all mantis shrimp

[velvet summit]

everyone in the server except for ghosty

[pliant berry]

I may be colourblind but i aint colorblind

[sage sluice]

i just switched tabs, read my username and for a millisecond was about to respond to felix (myself)

my talent is beyond mortal comprehension

[mortal grail]

See the name just begs being pinged

[misty sparrow]

it’s mortal incomprehension

[mortal grail]

Even by urself

[misty sparrow]

Resist the urge to ping Felix and say “help me out with my pc please”

[mortal grail]

(I'm genuinely looking forward to 30 less pings a day for a week)

[sage sluice]

@sage sluice hey could you help me my pc no work i pressed the button on the screen and it no work should i buy a new pc?

[mortal grail]

Put a bandaid on it

Uh I mean @sage sluice help

[sage sluice]

put some gas in it

[mortal grail]

[sage sluice]

whats the stupidest help youve had to provide someone

[mortal grail]

That's an interesting one

I probably couldn't say of all time

But revently

[misty sparrow]

“Insert the installation thumb drive and if it doesn’t work take it out and plug it in again”

windows device connect and device removed sounds play rapidly

[mortal grail]

I helped a highly trained technology specialist and pc gamer of his country learn that the gpu is where the monitor cable goes to

[sage sluice]

thats pretty rough

omg

[misty sparrow]

couldn’t be me

[mortal grail]

We've been reminding him every week for 2 months now

[sage sluice]

what did he keep tryna plug stuff into his mobo? lmao

[mortal grail]

He was ready to junk the whole pc

[velvet summit]

https://tenor.com/view/ohhh-damn-bro-daamn-that-was-obvious-realising-gif-24880382

[mortal grail]

Even his gf had something to say

[sage sluice]

theres no way

[mortal grail]

There absolutely is but I will never name drop who

[sage sluice]

so a "specialist" wouldnt even take the time to troubleshoot

[mortal grail]

Yep

Like, really distinguised

[sage sluice]

sounds like they should take up knitting

[mortal grail]

Can't evaluate further

[velvet summit]

tbf after being specialized for a full day of work you dont want to troubleshoot your own crap

[mortal grail]

It was just one of those moments yk

"I've tried everything"

But then I see the fps numbers and I'm immediately like

"Where's the hdmi going"

[sage sluice]

if it comes to the point of throwing your pc away i think thats just

[velvet summit]

lmao

[misty sparrow]

Some people do stupid mistakes sometimes

[mortal grail]

Figured it out in 20 seconds

[sage sluice]

like money to burn much?

[mortal grail]

Even me

We're only human

[sage sluice]

my stupidest mistake building my pc was getting mini itx

[mortal grail]

He makes a lot

[misty sparrow]

I heard that someone bought a broken pc off someone only to find out it isn’t broken, it’s just the PSU switch isn’t turned on

[sage sluice]

lmao

[mortal grail]

I would've actually gone and picked it up if it came to that lol

[mortal grail]

Or recently that threadripper pc found under a bag of trash

[sage sluice]

whats his number ill pretend to be a nigerian prince

[mortal grail]

It starts with 10

[sage sluice]

9

[pliant berry]

From the hundreds of hours of troubleshooting when I was younger I just kinda laugh sometimes when I have a new problem and figure it out without too much hassle

[mortal grail]

11

[sage sluice]

years

[mortal grail]

Thanks ghosty for saving the chat

Your message is the last line of defence

Deleting that would be

[misty sparrow]

Do this instead

except with ransomware

Who the heck is pretending to be the prince now

[misty sparrow]

the fresh prince of bel air

getting my first tat soon, apparently my artist is having issues rip

[pliant berry]

One of these days I need to invest in a new battery bank

Rip

[sage sluice]

im hoping its nothing major

[pliant berry]

Most of the time it’s death in the family, at least that’s every time I had heard the phrase in the past few years

[sage sluice]

unfortunately yeah, same here

on the upside tho, im pretty excited to finally get one, ive been wanting to for a good minute

id be lying if the idea of a needle stabbing me for hours didnt sound a bit scary tho lol

idk how people that'll spend like 16 hours getting a tatt tolerate it

It's almost like I'm supposed to be useful for something at this point idk

[misty sparrow]

Can I have a glass of water

[sage sluice]

i want water first

[mortal grail]

You're bread, you'll dissolve

I can't recommend

[sage sluice]

technically it floats first

humans desolve in water too, it just takes longer

[misty sparrow]

I don’t care if I get moist

[mortal grail]

"You don't immediately sink into lava don't worry"

[misty sparrow]

water please

[sage sluice]

its because i am?

[mortal grail]

Lead

[sage sluice]

[mortal grail]

Cos everything eventually becomes lead

[misty sparrow]

Imagine dying and eventually being used as a pencil

[sage sluice]

thats not lead

thats graphite

[misty sparrow]

what do they call the mechanical pencil refills

[sage sluice]

lies

[mortal grail]

Holy crap he's even stealing my sentences now

[velvet summit]

i mean

we could bring back leaded pencils

[sage sluice]

get back to the nursing home, felix is getting an upgrade

[misty sparrow]

We have a new Felix now

and in sandwich form

[sage sluice]

not without the lead plates

[misty sparrow]

imagine a kindergartener accidentally poking themselves with a lead pencil

instant poison

[velvet summit]

well

[sage sluice]

cant? we already have. you can grab your notice on your way out

[velvet summit]

lead is a neurotoxin

you won't instantly die

but you will get its negative health effects for the rest of your life

[sage sluice]

consumption is much more toxic

[mortal grail]

https://tenor.com/view/green-goblin-norman-osborn-osborn-spider-man-mask-gif-24772759

[sage sluice]

note tomatos on lead plates

[velvet summit]

yeah the acid dissolves the lead better or whatever

[sage sluice]

yup

[velvet summit]

but that's also why it's safe to handle lead barehanded

[mortal grail]

Lead also isn't easily filtered out the body

[velvet summit]

your skin protects you, though ideally you dont get lead in your wounds

[sage sluice]

eat a tomato

[mortal grail]

Hence the persistence of health problems

[rancid juniper]

https://www.youtube.com/live/ylAiyCaiZag?si=5U6AaewNGqz0gfNl

This game is stupid demanding

Wow

[velvet summit]

which is why it's a neurotoxin

your body thinks it's calcium or whatever

[sage sluice]

lead poisoning is hip and cool

[velvet summit]

goes into the bones, where your blood is produced

[misty sparrow]

-# vaping the kfc chicken flavor was worth it

[velvet summit]

bones get weaker, dna gets damaged in the blood

overall pretty terrible

[misty sparrow]

If your conscience knows it’s bad then why doesn’t your brain not know

[velvet summit]

💀

[misty sparrow]

strange

[velvet summit]

lead and its negative health effects are pretty well documented

[mortal grail]

Wtf 4K 60 on a 3060 is amazing

Sim racer moment

[rancid juniper]

4k 60 probably all low

[sage sluice]

hows the physics?

[mortal grail]

That's still good

[rancid juniper]

Grass for some reason is one of the most demanding

Even at low

[sage sluice]

i mean its pretty simple why

[rancid juniper]

Guess so

[misty sparrow]

It’s strange because no player is going to actually look close enough at the grass

[sage sluice]

just because the model is small doesnt mean its less complicated

[mortal grail]

If they actually modelled it properly then yes for anything ray traced it's death

[rancid juniper]

Lol

[sage sluice]

i want to see a mirror maze with path tracing

these goofy things

[mortal grail]

Me too tbh

Put jensen in the middle with a torch

"The rays!?"

"THE RAYS!!"

[sage sluice]

he doesnt need a torch, the jacket is enough

not that we'd be able to get one here in australia anyway

uh prawns and barbies or whatever

[mortal grail]

I mean nvidia themselves already confessed to this

The 3dmark tests also show this

But 3dmark is way more reliable

[rancid juniper]

OpenCL testing I sometimes ignore on geekbench

[mortal grail]

I often ignore geekbench

[rancid juniper]

Geek

[mortal grail]

Cos it's really rough

[sage sluice]

i often ignore

[rancid juniper]

[sage sluice]

bench

[mortal grail]

Geekbench is like barely valid for our normal use cases here

[sage sluice]

then why use geekbench?

ive never touched it

[mortal grail]

Sits at the edge of the cutoff ahead of vs websites, ubm, and sponsored recommendations

[rancid juniper]

When will unigine make a new benchmark?

[mortal grail]

They have, like 3 since last gen

LOL

[mortal grail]

Good question tbh

[rancid juniper]

:0

[mortal grail]

They have speedway, steel nomad, solar bay since 40 series dropped

RT, Raster, Mobile respectively

[rancid juniper]

Unigine not 3dmark

[mortal grail]

Oh

Oh right

[rancid juniper]

Unigine superposition was 2017 XD

[mortal grail]

Superposition

Yeah mb

[sage sluice]

ive only tested these on mobile since theyre free there lol

[mortal grail]

Superposition is still good for raster tho tbf

[rancid juniper]

Np

Oh yea

[mortal grail]

You just do the extreme setting

[sage sluice]

time spy is the only test i really do now tbh

if i do any

[mortal grail]

TS is becoming too cpu limited

TSE still works well

[rancid juniper]

Steel nomad

[sage sluice]

im too broke to extreme

[mortal grail]

Steel nomad is the direct replacement

[dusk knot]

Synthetic benchmarks? I sleep yet again

[mortal grail]

It's like $6

Lol

[rancid juniper]

LOL

[pliant berry]

You can often find 3dmark on sale for like 2usd

[sage sluice]

your point?

[rancid juniper]

It's cheap

[sage sluice]

2 usd i could fork

[mortal grail]

Not an hour ago I read "$200 tattoo"

[pliant berry]

If you are too broke for that I hate to break it to you but you might be in the wrong hobby xD

[mortal grail]

[rancid juniper]

I've spent countless hours trying to make my PC look good in 3dmark

[sage sluice]

ive been saving up for it for years

[mortal grail]

Time to sell GRE

[rancid juniper]

Fr

[mortal grail]

[misty sparrow]

I think time spy is the only free test right

[mortal grail]

The guys who play for keeps on 3dmark spend like $6 a minute on liquid helium these days

[sage sluice]

i mean ive made other money lol i just dont put it all towards stuff i enjoy, responsiblities or whatever

[pliant berry]

I think? But not the extreme version

[rancid juniper]

Everytime GRE pops up I go fuming just for the fact that I should've waited a bit longer instead of getting the 7800xt

😔

[mortal grail]

Ye just the basic

[mortal grail]

You got the same perf/$

Why be mad

[sage sluice]

i bought the gre for 570 like a couple months before xt was selling for 600-620

[rancid juniper]

Oh

[mortal grail]

Wait for it

9070 will release

Then frost mad ogen

[rancid juniper]

Nah I'm training to keep myself calm

[mortal grail]

Keep calm and make tea

[sage sluice]

i could go for some tea rn

I'd probably wait like 4+ gens from either AMD or novideo

[sage sluice]

i left my dark chocolate espresso beans at home

[rancid juniper]

Or... Mmmmmm intel

😋

[sage sluice]

intel is def making a name for itself in the market

[mortal grail]

I wonder what the next letter is

hope it doesnt do well get cocky like amd and immediately skyrocket into the earth

you look suspicious

[fresh timber]

I am Felix so that checks out

[sage sluice]

so true

you said they were 10.. 😔

[sinful blade]

How do I stop my display from being slightly too big? Like it’s almost fitting my screen, but there’s half an inch off.

[misty sparrow]

you don’t sort them? huh

[unreal trail]

heh

[misty sparrow]

I’d at least change the file name if that were me

so it’s simpler

[sinful blade]

Like no matter what resolution it’s at, it’s just off by an inch

[craggy shoal]

Just one big folder is good enough for me

[fresh timber]

Go google plex

Damn

[craggy shoal]

"I know nothing about [insert product name here]" okay?

[fresh timber]

Ru using hdmi?

[sage sluice]

scale and layout

Right-click on your desktop and choose Display Settings. ...
Click on Advanced display settings. ...
Select the Resolution drop-down menu. ...
Choose the appropriate resolution value. ...
Click Apply and Keep changes. ...
Right-click your desktop and select Screen resolution.

copy and pasted off google because im talented

wait thats reso

idk man

😭

the fake felix would do better here

[pliant berry]

Yeah for the same reason I don’t organize mine anymore, with a couple dozen movies and tv shows and over 10k music albums it becomes very tedious

[fresh timber]

With my tv I have to scale hdmi every reboot

[craggy shoal]

Ditch the VGA cable and switch to either HDMI or DP

[pliant berry]

I just let the software tag and organize it now

[sage sluice]
