general-chat

[fresh timber]

I gotta pick a new one

[pliant berry]

In all seriousness though let’s try not to make jokes about topics like that

[mortal grail]

Yes plssss

[sage sluice]

nor talk seriously about it either, because this is not the place 😭

[wind quail]

Seems legit

[sage sluice]

the vex is disgusting username really pulling through

💀

[fresh timber]

If we drop it

We drop it

No more vex is disgusting

[sage sluice]

balou is disgusting

[mortal grail]

Ok deal

[pliant berry]

I need to try hexos eventually

[fresh timber]

It’s bad

[sage sluice]

dunno what it is

motor shut up

[pliant berry]

Damn

[craggy shoal]

ok

:(

[sage sluice]

[pliant berry]

How could it be that bad, I mean it’s built on truenas

[craggy shoal]

it's limited (this was the only thing I was gonna say Balou)

[pliant berry]

Well yeah I don’t expect such a young project to have a wide feature set

[sage sluice]

mhm

[craggy shoal]

No like it's simplified

not because it's new

[pliant berry]

Oh well that’s the point of it

[craggy shoal]

Like the difference between the crappy MS Store apps and downloading the "same" program from the developer's website

(if that makes sense)

[fresh timber]

True nas is simple enough

Just learn it

[craggy shoal]

Yeah really not that hard tbh imo

[sage sluice]

god im so excited to step away from microsoft entirely

steamos hurry up

[pliant berry]

Umm, honestly not really unless you have a background in linux. Very easy to get random errors

[fresh timber]

I have no background what so ever

I just installed it and played with it

[sage sluice]

whats a linux??

[fresh timber]

I still don’t understand it

[pliant berry]

I just want a piece of software I can recommend to people that want qnap like experience without being locked into their hardware

[fresh timber]

But I know enough to learn truenas and watch throrials

[fresh timber]

Not hexos that’s for sure, go for a synology or something

[sage sluice]

software is like if you jumbled the entire world into a pot and told them to chat with eachother in 300 different languages and cultures

[pliant berry]

Depends what you use it for. Personally I had a lot of issues with permissions of shares on different pcs and lot of issues with apps until they finally removed helm

Sounds about right

[sage sluice]

the fact we dont have more software standards is painful

[fresh timber]

Software standards

Funny joke

[sage sluice]

🥹

[pliant berry]

Long live rust 🫡

[fresh timber]

I hate that

[sage sluice]

live laugh love

[fresh timber]

That game is cancer

[fresh timber]

Live laugh rust

[pliant berry]

Man I have had this phone for several months and still can’t type

[sage sluice]

rust is fun when im watching welyn smoke people for the 5000th time

[pliant berry]

Not the game

[fresh timber]

Which phone

[sage sluice]

i love that feeling of tetanus crawling through my skin

[pliant berry]

iphone 16 pro

[sage sluice]

after i smacked my hand onto a rusty buzzsaw

[fresh timber]

Everyone should make and maitain a pi hole server

[velvet summit]

I love Costco but I hate the parking lot

[fresh timber]

Which is ur old phone, shouldn’t be a large change

[pliant berry]

iPhone se

[sage sluice]

clouds should be fluffy but theyre a scam

[fresh timber]

And that makes sense

I’m using a 14 and want a litterly anything 13 pro max or better, I want big screen and battery

[pliant berry]

The screen is only a little bit wider but after having used phones of nearly the exact same screen size for probably 6-8 years yeah I guess it screws with you

Btw did yall see the vlc booth at ces

[frigid stag]

The 5s one?

[pliant berry]

The 6s one i think

[mortal grail]

All the SE's are good

Still the best budget iphone you can break in with

[pliant berry]

So I went from 6s -> se -> 16 pro

[sage sluice]

speaking of phones, how do yall feel about redmagic?

[mortal grail]

I've used a few

The specs are great

[pliant berry]

They have cool waifu

[mortal grail]

Software awful

You get what you pay for basically

[fresh timber]

Buy me 16 pro max please thank you

[mortal grail]

You can fix most of the software stuff tho

[sage sluice]

software being rough is understandable

[mortal grail]

And the upshot is if you know how to power use a phone they're quite open to hidden features

Or modding even

[pliant berry]

Honestly I hated paying that 1200usd for my phone but it was kind of essential for work

[fresh timber]

Why was it essential

[sage sluice]

im runnin a s23 atm and it does me nicely

[fresh timber]

What did se not do

[proud jackal]

[pliant berry]

Umm well stay alive, or maintain reception, or record 4k60

[fresh timber]

lol

[pliant berry]

Or load train tickets before the conductor threw me off the train

[fresh timber]

4k 60 is fun

[pliant berry]

Not fun for my storage

[sage sluice]

god ever since i turned 18 i swear my back cracks anytime i move

its like my bones stopped working

[pliant berry]

100gb gone for a 5min recording

[fresh timber]

lol

I want a base 16 pro max

I don’t need the storage

[sage sluice]

i want a ferrari

[proud jackal]

Why are there so many Felix

[pliant berry]

Ehh id rather have a camera than ferrari

[mortal grail]

I took up multiplying

[sage sluice]

its feli for plural

[pliant berry]

Feliception

[fresh timber]

I need a nas and camera and goof computer for my college class next school year

Video files are not small

And I ain’t goin record low bittty

[pliant berry]

No they aren’t

[mortal grail]

And a group is a murder of felii

Like crows

[pliant berry]

Especially if you in prores or raw

[fresh timber]

They think a 1tb one drive and having crappy upload at home is good

[pliant berry]

Good luck

[fresh timber]

Funna be to explain to professor that my project is 500GB and will take a few days to upload

Lowkey wonder if they will accept a thumb drive with the project lmfao

Later me problem

[pliant berry]

I only ever handed in final exports. Entire project folder would be death

[velvet summit]

Lmao

[fresh timber]

I’ll export at high bit too

Quality’s

Then encode in av1 and hope professior can decode av1

[pliant berry]

Yeah I mean you don’t have to go too crazy. They usually just want to see that everything is in focus, composition, and noise levels

A lot of institutions have been upgrading to apple silicon machines

[fresh timber]

I’m buying a Mac for college, ima use a nas that syncs my storage so either Mac and pc can edit off the same files

Video to Mac, Mac uploads to nas in background, by then time I’m home I got some finished and it starts zoom in when I plug bro into ethenet

Peak

[pliant berry]

If the nas is fast enough you could keep the source files on the nas and just access via share. Otherwise you could do proxy files for on the go

[fresh timber]

I would do that but I fear if I’m not home and need something on laptop then I’ll be waiting forever cause my upload is poop

[pliant berry]

How slow?

[fresh timber]

Syncing the files, then having another nas backup the files seems the play to me

[fresh timber]

20mbps slow

[pliant berry]

Yikes

[fresh timber]

It would take me a long time to do even 1GB

Or I can remote into pc and edit and such off that kek

[pliant berry]

Yeah I see people doing that now, nas and mac mini or something on same network, and then a pikvm or the like to remotely edit on the mac mini

[fresh timber]

But I think the Mac lowkey is faster than my desktop until I get nvidia gpu for it lmfao

Transcoding is sooo slower

[pliant berry]

Depends on the software you use. If you are using adobe I wouldn’t even bother using a windows pc unless you got some free time

[fresh timber]

Adobe

Man idk what software ima be using

[pliant berry]

Yup lol

Ill just say I personally prefer my m1 macbook air over my 9900k + 3070ti because it renders previews a lot faster and is much more stable despite having slightly longer export times

[pliant berry]

Rip sony

[fresh timber]

lol I have a 13600kf +7700xt

I think the base m4 beats me

But I have more ram than it

[pliant berry]

I need to start upgrading the ram in my computers. Pretty much all my computers are still on 16gb ram except for server

[fresh timber]

Wow

I been 32 gng

I’m preying 16gb Mac is enough, it should tho

If not, moon light to gaming pc

[pliant berry]

I only felt that I needed more for larger video projects and more complex 2d vector animations

[fresh timber]

W

Can’t you share project filed between computers and pickup where you left

[pliant berry]

For premiere and ae ye as long as I used proper project structure

[fresh timber]

What’s your opinion on davincie

[pliant berry]

Its fine, I prefer it for color grading but the workflow is much different from premiere so i still use premiere for pretty much everything else

[sage sluice]

I don’t even take these clssses lmfaooo

[fresh timber]

When your smarter than the teacher they give up

I’m confused on how I have a B in algrabra if I don’t take algrabra this semester…

[pliant berry]

[fresh timber]

I’m in hs rn

[pliant berry]

Oh

[fresh timber]

Planning college

Signed up and everything

[pliant berry]

[fresh timber]

Etc

[pliant berry]

[misty sparrow]

[misty sparrow]

oh oops wrong one

ignore that one

[unreal trail]

Bro's going through it

racing go karts for banana money

I wonder why Nintendo hates emulators? :thunking:

[tranquil pebble]

Tried Asseto Corsa and got disqualified every single lap

[velvet summit]

"i cant fit in this shthing"

[rancid juniper]

Nintendo when hardware vulnerability:

[misty sparrow]

Nintendo when one brainlet finds an exploit by shoving a paper clip into the right joycon rail:

[rancid juniper]

Honestly for a population of 8+ billion people I can't believe someone decided "I want to insert a paperclip into a switch"

[misty sparrow]

Well it didn’t start out that way

[rancid juniper]

Oh?

[misty sparrow]

They basically found out on launch models the Switch’s chip had a built in “home” button (not the one on the controller) in the right joycon rail you can access by bridging two pins together

There were several ways to bridge them

Cheapest one was a paperclip

If you bridged the pins and held down the volume up button, then turned on the console, you can then load homebrew

[rancid juniper]

Oh wow, how tf did they figure that one out tho? Hardware manual info?

[misty sparrow]

Magic

They basically figured this out 2017-2018

[rancid juniper]

I believe it

[misty sparrow]

I have my paperclip somewhere

I can send a picture of what I did to the paperclip

[rancid juniper]

Well iirc this only works for like the first revision of the switch tho

[misty sparrow]

yeah only launch models

2017-2018

[velvet summit]

tick tock
heavy like a brinks truck
looking like i'm tip top
shining like a wrist watch

[mortal grail]

How that probably went was

Someone took it apart

[rancid juniper]

Now question remains... What exploit will the switch 2 have?

[mortal grail]

Found a pin bridge

Then that went around

[rancid juniper]

That's probably likely

[mortal grail]

Then someone else noticed they could do it without opening the switch

Because they didn't want to open it

💀

Then THAT went around

[rancid juniper]

I mean exploiting a console without opening it is a massive W

[dusk knot]

@random osprey you know any ultra light wireless mouse for under $100? I was recommended one a few days ago, but I wanted to get your opinion as well. Thanks.

[mortal grail]

Going straight to paperclip under joycon would be insane if true tho

[rancid juniper]

The fact that it was simple

[misty sparrow]

Very simple

[rancid juniper]

Bruhhhhhhhhh

[misty sparrow]

Cut paperclip, slightly bent, nail file to smooth edges

[rancid juniper]

And that's how switch emulation was born

Switch 2: exploited by magnets

✅

[misty sparrow]

If it wasn’t for this happening I wouldn’t be able to play Simpsons hit and run on the switch

[unreal trail]

It was a security vulnerability with the Tegra X1 that nVidia forgor to tell Nintendo about

[rancid juniper]

Nvidia was like "it's their problem now "

[unreal trail]

people used to access the internal menu on their phone by shorting the board out the same way

nVidia was just happy to offload all the excess X1 stock lol

[craggy shoal]

The real reason for Pi

[rancid juniper]

Crazy how weak it is compared to today's technology

[velvet summit]

some may say pi is sus

[craggy shoal]

pisus

[velvet summit]

piss

[craggy shoal]

pi = among us = piss

[tranquil pebble]

Keychron might have something like that

[craggy shoal]

pi -> among us -> sus -> pi sus -> pisus -> piss

[tranquil pebble]

Petition rename AI to Plagiarized Information Synthesis System

[craggy shoal]

Nah that would be generative AI

Generative AI? More like Plagiarized Information Synthesis System

(I'm not generative AI I swear)

[tranquil pebble]

yeah that's what I meant

[velvet summit]

generator? i hardly even know her

[ancient swift]

Imma be like JP now

OLED or bust.

[worn wave]

even genai doesn't plagiarize. I'm not saying it's morally correct to scrape the web for training models but the way genai models work isn't plagarism

[craggy shoal]

I mean

It kinda does if you know how it works

[craggy shoal]

Hottest take of 2025 so far

[worn wave]

feed the model tons of images, it "looks" at them, finds patterns, then uses those patterns to turn noise into desired image

None of the training images are stored in the model

[ancient swift]

There's more than just images for generative AI

Company already got caught stealing scarjo's voice for Gen AI

[worn wave]

I don't think that's plagarism though

[ancient swift]

OpenAI btw

[worn wave]

copywrite maybe

[ancient swift]

"the practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own."

Stealing someone's voice would probably be included.

Especially someone who's voice is a big part of their work.

[worn wave]

Voice isn't work or ideas though. but yeah if you/your voice is famous I believe you can protect it via copywrite or similar.

[velvet summit]

technically your fingerprint is in public domain

[craggy shoal]

I didn't let the government use my fingie print

[velvet summit]

Afaik you can't exactly "copyright your voice"
Like, it's perfectly legal to do voice impressions for example, even if it sounds exactly like it
You may be able to copyright like voice lines e.g. in a game but you can also technically do a voice impression of that exact same line and it would be legal

Honestly law is complicated with so many gray zones that there's no way to say for certain

Not even Disney can DMCA you for a Mickey mouse impression as much as they would like to

You can't use the name Mickey mouse though since that's trademarked

You can call it "legally distinct mouse voice" though

Or Michael mouse

Michelle mouse

Michigan mouse

Mikey mouse might be too close

[opaque sedge]

damn didnt think it would be playable on deck this game is demanding af

honestly if smth like gow ragnarok runs on the deck it might survive 2025 games

[worn wave]

I mean

Phones are wayyyyy more multipurpose than a handheld

[opaque sedge]

But even an “old” phone has plenty of functionality today

I’m prolly not gonna upgrade mine for 5-6 years if the battery holds on

i enjoy ray tracing on some games

[fresh timber]

U are not going to have fun with a 3060 raytracing

[misty sparrow]

I never turn on ray tracing on my 3060 TI

Is it really that intensive?

[worn wave]

Depends on the game

I played metro Exodus PC and Indiana Jones on my 3060ti, both run well

Though a 3060 is like 25% slower than a 3060ti

[proud jackal]

[misty sparrow]

Wait, really? Indiana Jones ran well? That's crazy considering how great it looks

What resolution did you run?

[worn wave]

You have to turn down textures to fit within vram limits but the lower textures still look pretty good

[worn wave]

1440p monitor with dlss quality

Averaged probably 80fps

I was pretty pleased. Played through the whole thing, fun game

that could be taken a couple of ways

[opaque sedge]

…what do you mean by this…

[proud jackal]

[misty sparrow]

How do you use it as a weapon? Do you stab people with it

[gleaming rivet]

Biowarfare

[opaque sedge]

Istg i will stay on the good side of any lactose intolerant people irl now

[hoary zodiac]

Funny enough I'm somehow not that lactose intolerance

Despite my genetics (Chinese)

I might be one of the lucky ones with le lactose processing genes

[rigid sinew]

u know what i mean.. .

Nahtuhlay?!? Ur name should be nastylay 😭

[hoary zodiac]

Did you get banned from posting meat now

[opaque sedge]

Dude… she didn’t know yet

[gleaming rivet]

HAHA

[misty sparrow]

I don't know what you mean by this

[opaque sedge]

Oh god she’s typing

[misty sparrow]

It's probably good that I don't know

[rigid sinew]

yes i use it as a weapon

exactly

[opaque sedge]

I used to have two weapons in this chat once too… 😔

I used to be an adventurer like you once

[hoary zodiac]

I love Wendy's

[tranquil pebble]

seems like Proton runs old games better than Windows does, lol

[opaque sedge]

https://tenor.com/view/vegeta-tears-cry-sad-dbz-gif-8527162

[hoary zodiac]

Yeah

It's actually stupid easy to run games on linux compared to software

[gleaming rivet]

walnuts?

[hoary zodiac]

They're relatively contained

[opaque sedge]

Another linux os?

[misty sparrow]

Alright so here's the thing

[tranquil pebble]

I am using EndeavorOS

[hoary zodiac]

Based arch user

[opaque sedge]

I can believe it apparently a game as demanding as gow ragnarok is playable on the steam deck

[nocturne flicker]

Where is the thing

I've lost the thing

[opaque sedge]

Which arguably has somewhat outdated hardware by modern standards

[nocturne flicker]

The thing has escaped

[gleaming rivet]

Have you looked in the place for the thing?

[hoary zodiac]

Optimised*

[tranquil pebble]

its almost like devs CAN optimize when they are given the chance to by execs

[nocturne flicker]

I checked the place right after looking there for the thing

[misty sparrow]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/849750633967910942/1323920737723220028/3tn66fxhnfzd1.gif

[opaque sedge]

Its still fairly demanding and had issues on desktop but uncapped frames and it would barely have any frame drops

[hoary zodiac]

How to not release a broken game:
Step 1: Don't announce the game prematurely
Step 2: Give the devs enough time
Step 3: Give the devs enough resources
Step 4: Pay them better

[tranquil pebble]

Step 1 fails when people leak it though

[nocturne flicker]

That sounds like pinko talk, surely doing the exact opposite will be better

[tranquil pebble]

leakers bad

[hoary zodiac]

Still tho

Unverified rumors are still better than a full announcement

[nocturne flicker]

A company doesn't have to acknowledge rumors

It'd probably help advertise it anyways

And they wouldn't have to even do a thing

[tranquil pebble]

true

[hoary zodiac]

It'll build up hype without the pressure being too much on the dev teams too

Oh yeah

[tranquil pebble]

They should be like to the devs: take your time, we want a solid release

[hoary zodiac]

Step 5: Stop coping with DLSS/FG and actually optimise

[tranquil pebble]

framegen is yuck

[hoary zodiac]

Performance is just one out of the many annoying shenanigans with the modern gaming industry

The writing's also bad, gameplay is recycled crap

[nocturne flicker]

Step 6: Ignore step 5 and just have the modders do it

[frigid stag]

Ngl I kinda believe them when they say they optimise it as much as they can

[nocturne flicker]

Bethesda go brrrr

[frigid stag]

Some of these engines are extremely demanding

[hoary zodiac]

That's true sometimes

Depends on which project it is

[frigid stag]

If they actually made the game look revolutionary it would barely run on anything. Below a 5070

[hoary zodiac]

Sometimes devs can be given all the time and resources and still release a badly performing game

[tranquil pebble]

BeamNG.Drive is surprisingly well optimized for what it is, but that is also an indie

[storm narwhal]

Also stop targeting 60fps

[nocturne flicker]

How can a game look revolutionary nowadays?

[hoary zodiac]

But you can tell from how much effort is put into the game

You can just feel it when you're playing the game

Like say

[frigid stag]

Somehow 60 fps is the standard for like almost 15 years

[storm narwhal]

60fps should not still be the standard AAA games aim for

[hoary zodiac]

Stalker

[tranquil pebble]

60 fps should be the targeted MINIMUM performance

[hoary zodiac]

Stalker is unoptimised but

Still a pretty fun game

There's two types of bad releases

Buggy mess
Buggy mess AND the game is bad

They're both bad but one is worse

[storm narwhal]

Outlaws

[hoary zodiac]

Cyberpunk is the former

[storm narwhal]

Outlaws is both

[frigid stag]

dragons age failguard

[hoary zodiac]

The dev team was thrown under the bus

[nocturne flicker]

Could be an unfinished game, Steam beta heck go brrrrr

[hoary zodiac]

No man sky is both but

[tranquil pebble]

There is a third type... the one that does a 180 and becomes really good

[hoary zodiac]

No man's sky

[tranquil pebble]

exactly

[hoary zodiac]

That's more forgivable because the constraints were more like studio skill issue than devs

[tranquil pebble]

NMS still has a few optimization issues but they are minor

Also they made up for it

[hoary zodiac]

And the fact that the studio was willing to fund continual development even after a flop is commendable

[storm narwhal]

At least they did optimize

Instead of relying on UE

[tranquil pebble]

Its like look... the game is not perfect I get it. Update it, make it good and I will respect that.

[storm narwhal]

And taa/other upscalers

[hoary zodiac]

Was optimisation one of nms's launch issues?

Can't remember

Just remember the gameplay being the biggest sore thumb

[tranquil pebble]

idk but leaving planets still causes a slight stutter

again, minor issue

[storm narwhal]

I think that was the main issue

[hoary zodiac]

Yeah

Pre cyberpunk moment

When even bad releases ran somewhat decently

[dusk knot]

Hmmmm

[storm narwhal]

It was funny buggy too

T pose down the ladder

Insane vehicle ai

[hoary zodiac]

I still like playing space engineers more

[tranquil pebble]

Another thing I hate: intentionally sabotaging Linux users. I get if they dont want to provide support to us, but the least you can do is you know... not intentionally break your game on Linux.

[dusk knot]

The mounts of skill to t pose down a ladder is incredible. No human can accomplish that.

[hoary zodiac]

That's me but office 365

[storm narwhal]

Apex legends moment

[hoary zodiac]

I'm using libreoffice + office web now

[storm narwhal]

They just went nah screw this

[hoary zodiac]

I just can't use windows

Maybe I'll set up a vm on my gaming laptop

That I'll be keeping home

[tranquil pebble]

Windows is but a shell of what it once was... and even then it wasn't that great

[hoary zodiac]

But on my main pc I'll just use libre + 365 web

[hoary zodiac]

To be fair windows 7 was actually pretty good

[lone mango]

fr

[tranquil pebble]

Windows 7 was good by Windows standards

[hoary zodiac]

You can tell it's not a soulless cash grab

It just works

Now windows is hyper monetised

[storm narwhal]

The final version of windows guys

[hoary zodiac]

Instead of windows being the product

[tranquil pebble]

but at the core it was still NT... with the same problems that came with that

[hoary zodiac]

WE are the product

[storm narwhal]

Just one more final version

[hoary zodiac]

That's not the main issue really

[tranquil pebble]

and you still have to pay for it

[hoary zodiac]

The main issue is microsoft

[lone mango]

And its paid for too

[storm narwhal]

Microsoft ruins everything

[lone mango]

And that isnt enough for them

[hoary zodiac]

They steered windows into the worst possible direction for the consumer

This is the only reason why linux is catching up

I wouldn't even bother with linux if windows was actually a decent product

[tranquil pebble]

lol no its not. Valve is the biggest reason for that.

[storm narwhal]

But copilot guys dont you love copilot

[hoary zodiac]

In general I mean

[lone mango]

I think the main thing recently was copilot

That set everyone off

[nocturne flicker]

Monopolistic company does anti-consumer stuff? Woah

[hoary zodiac]

Microsoft is complacent as hell when it comes to windows

[nocturne flicker]

Crazy

[storm narwhal]

You guys so love ai right yeah copilot

[nocturne flicker]

Never expected

[hoary zodiac]

They don't innovate and make the product worse

[tranquil pebble]

Honestly I still would bother with Linux because of stuff I do needing it, but I would likely not be daily driving Linux if Windows didnt go to complete trash

[hoary zodiac]

If anything windows 11 was an attempt to catch up with linux

[nocturne flicker]

Break up Microsoft

[storm narwhal]

So was winget

[hoary zodiac]

Yeah I'd still use it for servers and stuff and not to the extent I use it nowadays

[tranquil pebble]

ironically Windows 11 is what ended up pushing me to daily Linux

[hoary zodiac]

Same

I had a windows dual boot

I yeeted it

11 is just so bad

I don't care anymore

Screw the software I'll just use a vm/foss

[nocturne flicker]

I'm just not going to leave Windows 10 until maybe SteamOS pops off for desktop

[fresh timber]

Me who daily windows 11 sense it came out 👀 what problems

Other than it being windows of course

[hoary zodiac]

The worst part is that they're selling YOUR data and still demands money for your OS

[tranquil pebble]

I did that too until 24H2 reared its ugly head

[fresh timber]

POV: you didn’t pay for windows

[hoary zodiac]

Windows 10 was tolerable

[storm narwhal]

24h2 was so bad

[hoary zodiac]

It wasn't as good as windows 7 but still usable

11 is just hot garbage

[fresh timber]

POV: your in 24h2 and confused

[gleaming rivet]

What issues with 24H2?

[icy ore]

[storm narwhal]

Game instabilities, program instabilities

[hoary zodiac]

Iirc there's some severe stability issues that breaks how software runs

[tranquil pebble]

to give you an idea... I did insider builds from Windows 8 all the way to Windows 11 and 24H2 was the first build that really made me HATE Windows.

[storm narwhal]

Broke a lot of things on that front alone

[gleaming rivet]

Huh. I haven't noticed any difference in my gaming and whatnot. Maybe I got lucky lol

[worthy meteor]

24h2 started crashing anyone that used a WD drive that uses hmb

[hoary zodiac]

Paid product from a multi million corporation btw

[fresh timber]

POV: non of your programs or games have been unstable

[worthy meteor]

They fixed it with a driver update iirc but still annoying

[lone mango]

Did everyone stay on windows 7 when 8 came out

I remember nothing about 8

[tranquil pebble]

also the recall stuff

[hoary zodiac]

Yes

[nocturne flicker]

I mean, I installed a copy of Windows 7 and messed around with it. Tbh it wasn't as good as I remembered

[storm narwhal]

Hilariously bad QC for a windows update

[worthy meteor]

Yea recall is annoying

[fresh timber]

Recall it opt in

[hoary zodiac]

Multi million company btw!!!!

[fresh timber]

Snooped in Microsoft discord for a while

[tranquil pebble]

I was on 8 before it was fully released. Same for 7.

[gleaming rivet]

I didn't have a PC when win 8 was around, I think I had win10 for maybe a few months at one point. Otherwise I built my first pc with 12 gen intel and went straight to win11

[lone mango]

Now 365 is gonna have copilot

If not already

[fresh timber]

Also who here even have a pc that can use recall?

[hoary zodiac]

They sell you a $100 OS (retail) and monetise all your data and stoll gives you a broken product

[storm narwhal]

Everyone loves copilot right

[hoary zodiac]

Thanks Microsoft

[storm narwhal]

Yeah totally

-Microsoft

[fresh timber]

Don’t buy windows, ez

[lone mango]

All of us because they are making it work everywhere from lack of adoption

[sinful blade]

@fresh timber why does your pfp look like an evil villain version of him

[fresh timber]

Its copilot plus only

Don’t buy a copilot plus pc

[fresh timber]

It’s a photo of him duh

[nocturne flicker]

That's his inauguration photo

[fresh timber]

Yeah

[hoary zodiac]

Is he in office now?

[sinful blade]

No shot

[nocturne flicker]

Dude thought looking like he had a stroke is cool

[hoary zodiac]

Oh sweet crypto's gonna go up soon

[tranquil pebble]

its almost like keeping the NPUs to strictly ARM and systems with integrated CPUs kills it

[fresh timber]

This Monday

It’s almost like you can uninstall recall too

[lone mango]

You can disable it but not uninstall it, unless chris titus found out how to keep dependencies

[fresh timber]

Time to make an iso that doesn’t include it

[lone mango]

When people uninstalled copilot completely, they had the old windows 10 file explorer

They probably figured out how to keep everything but still get rid of recall

[lone mango]

Yeah fr

[fresh timber]

Windows arm is poop from what I hear, lack of software support for people who use them for work

[hoary zodiac]

Imagine if ray tracing was forced adopted by every game when RTX 2000 was released

[tranquil pebble]

On ARM, Linux is the only real choice lol

[hoary zodiac]

ayayayay

Delete

Before mods delete you

[lone mango]

Why is it bad

[hoary zodiac]

Server rules

[fresh timber]

What

[nocturne flicker]

Link the LTT video instead

[fresh timber]

Are you talking about

[hoary zodiac]

You can't legally obtain an LTSC iso as an individual

[fresh timber]

Yes you can

Not

Idea

[lone mango]

Oh

[fresh timber]

POV: my ltsc iso

[lone mango]

I forgot about that

[fresh timber]

You got it from a corporationduh

[lone mango]

Its on the official microsoft website too, that us normies cant get it

Only corpos can have it

[fresh timber]

I think we can get it

[lone mango]

On that website yes

[fresh timber]

Your using the trial right 🙂

[frigid stag]

I should try server 2022

[hoary zodiac]

You have to be registered with a company

[nocturne flicker]

Make a company and then get it

Lazy Gamer LLC

[frigid stag]

There’s another way

[fresh timber]

Cool? I have a company for sake of rules 🙂

[fresh timber]

What y funna do? Say im lying b

[lone mango]

swear counter corporation

[hoary zodiac]

That's not the point

[fresh timber]

My point is you can’t prove he’s not using it legally obtained unless he makes it clear it is

[hoary zodiac]

The point is that it's against this server's rules

[fresh timber]

To use a legally obtained windows version?

[velvet summit]

Yeah

[fresh timber]

I think the rules are against illegal windows

And stuff

[velvet summit]

Windows is banned from this server

[lone mango]

[storm narwhal]

Definitely not legal to use windows anymore

[hoary zodiac]

.

[fresh timber]

Fr

[storm narwhal]

Stop this right now

[velvet summit]

Do not use windows or I will kill you(r drive)

[nocturne flicker]

Linux only server

[fresh timber]

Frfr

Windows is illegal

[tranquil pebble]

Using a 63-bit or 65-bit OS is also banned... mostly because you cant.

[fresh timber]

Tech guy at school gave me lstc frfr

Tooo bad I use norma bloated windows

[nocturne flicker]

Debloat it

[fresh timber]

Bad

Ima make custom iso

[nocturne flicker]

Why

[tranquil pebble]

I should install Unix System V in a VM for lulz

[hoary zodiac]

You CANNOT obtain a license of Windows LTSC as an individual

That is a fact

[fresh timber]

Yuh

[nocturne flicker]

Companies are people too. Unfortunately

[fresh timber]

My uncle company lets me use ltsc duh

[velvet summit]

To be fair, one of my friends somewhat can, since he helps out with his schools it department and got the iso from there, along with a bunch of old tech

[hoary zodiac]

Therefore the discussions of where you get your isos from non legitimate sources should stay out of this chat

[hoary zodiac]

That's legitimate tho

Since he's technically affiliated

[fresh timber]

Yuh

That’s my point 🙂

[frigid stag]

What even is the difference between server and ltsc

[fresh timber]

Both suck

Embrace Linux

[nocturne flicker]

Ltsc is Windows that is designed for max stability and long term function

[tranquil pebble]

opening Windows lets all the bugs in

[velvet summit]

Server is for server, ltsc/IoT enterprise is for like, IoT or industrial applications, or such

[hoary zodiac]

Server is meant more for server use (less overhead and additional features) and LTSC is meant for general use for Enterprise users

[dusk knot]

Lol.....that's a new one

[hoary zodiac]

Such as say an office worker

In google

[frigid stag]

So can you use server for a normal pc

[hoary zodiac]

Technically yes

[frigid stag]

I’ve seen some people do that

[fresh timber]

Yeah

[velvet summit]

Yes but it would be stupid because server licenses are way more expensive

[frigid stag]

Well about that

[velvet summit]

It starts at like 1.4k

Per license

[tranquil pebble]

You can also take CentOS and use it as a desktop but people generally dont do that because its silly.

[hoary zodiac]

per license?

Damn

[velvet summit]

Per server yes

[frigid stag]

Im pretty sure most of them got it through keys

[tranquil pebble]

and per CPU IIRC

[hoary zodiac]

Doesn't proxmox cost less if you pay the subscription

[velvet summit]

Though Microsoft has switched a subscription based licensing thing

[tranquil pebble]

plus core limits

[hoary zodiac]

You don't have to even pay the proxmox subscription

RHEL server, Ubuntu server

To be fair it makes sense for corpos who really need windows

[velvet summit]

Well, there different tiers, the essentials? or core? Can be one time purchase, while standard and datacenter could either be per user or per core or such

[hoary zodiac]

Say the critical infrastructure will only work on windows

[velvet summit]

The licensing of windows server is very confusing because of how different companies want to pay

[hoary zodiac]

And they're not able to spend the money to migrate

It makes sense

• It's an actively maintained OS

So Microsoft actually has an interest to keep it running well

[velvet summit]

The only benefit of windows server imo

Is that you get active directory

(user management, so you can have thousands of user accounts)

[tranquil pebble]

right, this is what most schools do pretty sure

[fresh timber]

proxmox cost?

[velvet summit]

Literally every other usecase can be done just as well on like rhel or debian

[fresh timber]

u pay for ur proxmox?

[velvet summit]

You can pay

[hoary zodiac]

keyword if

[velvet summit]

But it's free to use

[hoary zodiac]

The subscription is reasonable for datacenter/server maintainers

[velvet summit]

No point paying if you're just homelabbing since the point is to learn

[hoary zodiac]

Pretty flexible

[velvet summit]

But if you're using it for a live deployment, and need something fixed ASAP, the enterprise licensing does give you priority support

[hoary zodiac]

And that is very much worth the money when you're maintaining a server for a business

[sinful blade]

OOOO

Once I get the 9800x3d I will have acquired more AMD CPUs than Intel CPUs in total

[sinful blade]

I should start with an intel cpu

Maybe my next build

[tranquil pebble]

assuming the Intel CPU is competitive then sure why not

[rancid juniper]

One of the best nfs games fr

[rancid juniper]

🔥

[tranquil pebble]

straight up one of my favorite exotics ever

In GT6 the thing was stupid levels of OP

I was regularly hitting 300 MPH in it on the like the wind races, leaving even Bugattis in the dust

[dusk knot]

5090...

[tranquil pebble]

I just realized... 9800x3d has 3d cache AND AVX-512... damn that thing is gonna shred in emulators

[rancid juniper]

Another one of my favorites is definitely the zonda R

[lone mango]

I saw a video where it didnt do too well but this was a while ago

[hoary zodiac]

PS3 emulation at a smooth 60fps? 👀

[lone mango]

Maybe he did wrong settings

[rancid juniper]

Pagani do be having some crispy engine sounds

[lone mango]

Well 7000 had 512 too

[wispy knot]

I get this already

[hoary zodiac]

In all games?

[tranquil pebble]

Pagani makes the coolest looking cars too

[lone mango]

I think 9000 has more 512 capabilities tho

[rancid juniper]

Fr

[wispy knot]

The ones that have good compatibility yes

[hoary zodiac]

Oh

PS3 still have compatibility shenanigans?

[opaque sedge]

Ngl i would love to do emulation but sourcing the games part is whats driving me away

[lone mango]

Yeah

[hoary zodiac]

PS2-PS3 is great

You can get used games for really cheap and rip them

[lone mango]

gt5 and gt6 are still not the best

[tranquil pebble]

To do it legally you need a BD-ROM drive

[hoary zodiac]

Or just play on the disc

[rancid juniper]

https://youtu.be/ygncfFC2nns?si=SZHIrEM6LhcxLt8Z

[hoary zodiac]

You can legally just emulate PS2 with a dvd drive

No updates required

PS3 is more complicated

[opaque sedge]

Ohhh

Wbt ps4?

[hoary zodiac]

Do you need to download updates for ps3 games?

[wispy knot]

2600 games are marked as "playable" while 1100 are marked as "ingame" or lower

[hoary zodiac]

ehhhhhhh

PS5

[wispy knot]

Yes, there's databases for that

[tranquil pebble]

tried this with a Japanese PS2 game and easy region lock defeat lol

[opaque sedge]

But bloodborne…

[hoary zodiac]

Exclusives will come to pc eventually so

There's less and less exclusives these days really

[wispy knot]

Should be easier to do in theory but the fear of lawsuits has prevented it so far

It's x86 after all

[hoary zodiac]

So the older consoles are more worthwhile

[hoary zodiac]

Yeah just look at switch

[opaque sedge]

People have been waiting for bloodborne for a decade now

[rancid juniper]

And now a PS4 emulator is updating quick regularly, very few games do run so far

[hoary zodiac]

ARM but still

[rancid juniper]

But obv people are playing Bloodborne outta it (with mods ofc)

[opaque sedge]

The bloodborne subreddit was devastated and in shambles during the goty event

[hoary zodiac]

The legal part is obtaining the game

The illegal part is obtaining the bios file

iirc sony doesn't really go after people

But Nintendo absolutely does

[opaque sedge]

Oh damn i didn’t know that

[tranquil pebble]

OG Xbox was the first x86 console

[hoary zodiac]

I wonder

[opaque sedge]

They’ve been traumatized since what universal did to them in their early days

[tranquil pebble]

had a Pentium 3 with nerfed cache in it

[hoary zodiac]

We should build a PS4 era PC

[opaque sedge]

😔

[hoary zodiac]

GCN and stuff

[rancid juniper]

No thanks lol

[hoary zodiac]

GCN + FX

[tranquil pebble]

I have one of the most powerful GCN cards ever made coming

[opaque sedge]

Apparently in nintendo’s early days when donkey kong came to the west universal filed a copyright against them for copying king kong

But it didn’t go thru

[tranquil pebble]

Radeon Instinct MI50

[hoary zodiac]

NOOOO

NOT 295x2

[opaque sedge]

I wonder if the judge would have ruled in favor of universal had he known what Nintendo would be like in the future

[hoary zodiac]

16GB HBM2 👀

[tranquil pebble]

16 GB of HBM2 with an insane 1 TB/s of bandwidth

[hoary zodiac]

Is that back when 16GB was a lot

[tranquil pebble]

its a Vega II basically

[hoary zodiac]

HBM2 aren't that reliable on these Radeons iirc right?

[tranquil pebble]

not that I am aware of, HBM is still used so

[lone mango]

Kinda crazy cards with gddr can hit that nowadays

[tranquil pebble]

still though $110 for a HBM2 card is bonkers

[hoary zodiac]

I remember vaguely about HBM not being implemented too well on these cards

Maybe I'm remembering wrong

Would certainly be a radeon moment

[lone mango]

Nah there was something

But it was early on

[wispy knot]

It's because the clock speed is low on the HBM so when it's not fully utilizing it the speed is low, like when gaming

[tranquil pebble]

Well, even if the MI50 ends up dying, I will still have a cool decoration in the form of unusual video card

[hoary zodiac]

Collector's item

Get a 1080ti fe

[hoary zodiac]

Ah

So it's a workload issue

[tranquil pebble]

HBM isnt good for gaming, but for stuff like ML it is

[hoary zodiac]

Must have been a convo about buying cheap old compute cards as budget gaming gpus I'm remembering then

[tranquil pebble]

HBM vs GDDR is like multi-socket Epyc vs a Ryzen

have any FP64 loads I should try? The MI50 packs more FP64 compute than a 5090 lol.

[hoary zodiac]

Is this drama again

[tranquil pebble]

look at this cute little 5090 lol

[nocturne flicker]

Yup

[lone mango]

I had no idea why that post was made but now I see gn showed ltt trying to sweep the honey scandal under the rug

The GN team's been pretty transparent

And reports on what they see

They also respond to constructive criticism pretty professionally so

[tranquil pebble]

LTT if it was good

[hoary zodiac]

Feels like LTT's being more unprofessional here despite being the larger group

Pretty sure Linus takes criticism addressed to LMG way too personally

Still feels like I'm missing context here tho

They could probably both sort their stuff out in the back channels before putting it on air

That way we're not gonna get all this drama

It was tho. LTT said it was an unwise business decision back then as the only thing they knew was that it made YTers lose money, back when people didnt care about YTers income much, and when it was already well covered in the news

[tranquil pebble]

that's not good for views though

[hoary zodiac]

True

[tranquil pebble]

drama gets clicks

And to be fair GN has the full right to criticise him on air

Commentary rats do it all the time with less effort

It's fair use

[nocturne flicker]

Personally addresses Steve, tells him he is making errors or is lying, is probably faking some of his disagreements towards LTT out of bias, criticizes how he covers stuff, demands Steve either retracts statements or recuse himself if he can't be unbiased in the eyes of Linus and is going to blast him during his podcast, what a move

2025

What a time

[hoary zodiac]

We don't have the full context but I have a feeling that the back channel communications aren't going too well

[north crescent]

Also, if GN wants to be whiny about this, where tf was his video? Given how well connected he was to everyone back then, I really doubt he didnt know about it. It really does feel like some cheap shot ngl

[hoary zodiac]

It probably is

These two groups are not communicating as they should
