I hate numpads so

#

Perfect for me ngl

#

I’ll ask my dad about it when I get a chance to

velvet summit
#

i would die without a numpad

acoustic palm
#

But I’m in bed sick rn so

velvet summit
#

i didnt even notice how much i used a numpad until i got a laptop

#

lmfao

acoustic palm
#

I have never used one once in my life

#

Besides on my phone

velvet summit
#

it's so useful for punching in numbers

north crescent
#

When I need numbers, I need numpad

sinful blade
#

I’m a top line of the keyboard guy

#

My wife is the opposite

velvet summit
#

i use the number row basically only for passwords

#

if i have to punch in more than like 3 numbers though, i start hating the number row

sinful blade
#

Then again

#

I am a controller player in a m&k environment.

So I don’t use many keys regardless

velvet summit
#

i only use controller on like hack and slash games because it says i should

sinful blade
#

My 2C is getting beat to hell and back by how much I use it

velvet summit
#

though i suck at controller for that as well

sinful blade
#

I was an Xbox player up until a few years ago

#

I still have my 360, one, and series X

Just in case

velvet summit
#

i went straight from like no joystick game controller to kb&m

sinful blade
#

I was too poorkekw

velvet summit
#

so i struggle with aiming at shit with a joystick

#

though actually

#

i did use a pointing stick for a few years

#

but technically that's not a joystick

#

i do kinda miss using a pointing stick

Minecraft java moving to vulkan

velvet summit
#

A pointing stick (or trackpoint, also referred to generically as a nub, clit mouse, or nipple mouse) is a small analog stick used as a pointing device typically mounted centrally in a computer keyboard. Like other pointing devices such as mice, touchpads or trackballs, operating system software translates manipulation of the device into movement...

#

wow, that's pretty cool

#

what was it on before

sinful blade
#

I find myself more at home on controller
Even on my heavily modded TTW, I still use controller
Meaning I can use most of the keybinds, except for throwing grenades

but macos does EAT ram up

#

@velvet summit ok so i specced out a macbook with similar specs (way worse cpu/igpu/display/features/functionality/peripherals 😭 ) and its 2200, do you think thats enough to convince my dad to let me get the msi one

lone mango
pliant berry
#

macos is a bit different. if there is enough available ram to keep an app ready to launch it will use it

lone mango
velvet summit
#

depends on how deep in the apple ecosystem they are lmao

acoustic palm
#

uh

#

yes.

#

(he thinks apple has the best performing specs on the entire market and gets confused with cpu/gpu/neural engine cores)

grand wasp
#

HOLY MOLY

#

That's craaaaazy

acoustic palm
#

it was like 10gb idle

#

and when he had chrome up hed get "out of memory" issues

#

he also somehow used up 256gb of storage even tho he barely uses it

#

i had to free up like 100gb for him

acoustic palm
pliant berry
acoustic palm
#

and my dad remoted in and also checked everything

pliant berry
#

The only time I've ever gotten memory warning on a 16gb mac was with very heavy animation project files

velvet summit
#

Does he just have alot of apps

acoustic palm
#

maybe

pliant berry
#

though i have a strict policy of keeping at least 100gb free on os storage drives at all times

acoustic palm
#

but everything was closed

acoustic palm
#

there was a solid 70gb in "system" smth smth

pliant berry
#

from most cases i've seen, both windows and mac but especially mac's start to fall apart very quickly when you have no storage available

acoustic palm
#

i forget what off the top of my head

pliant berry
#

yup sounds about right

nocturne flicker
#

Win11 requires 4gb minimum, you guys gonna trust Google Chrome to run on 4gb? derpyBlob

acoustic palm
pliant berry
#

to be fair, last I checked like 60-80gb of that system data is just caching for adobe after effects lmao

acoustic palm
#

i cleared some caches to get it down to 20gb but after i uploaded all his photos to the cloud and removed most of his downloads it went right back up

#

😭

#

yeah but hopefully i can get another device out of the apple ecosystem

#

completely terrible devices all around

pliant berry
#

the best thing and what I do with basically all my systems now is only store apps, os, and app configs on the main ssd. keeping all the documents, project files and sometimes caching files on external drives. much easier to manage the storage that way

acoustic palm
#

my grandfather doesnt know how to google things

#

i dont think thats realistic for him to do

#

He's gonna unlock youtube for everyone trust

pliant berry
#

but there are some techniques that you can use. like I think I remember seeing with desktop macs people will put a permanent external ssd and link it as the home folder so without even thinking about it all your documents, photos, video etc folders are actually going on the external drive

pliant berry
#

I was going to try this for my mom since she just has a crazy amount of files for work and isn't the greatest at keeping up with multiple drives

#

It’s because of the plastics used

worn wave
#

Apparently, the primary source for the chemicals is the "formulation of the plastics from which they are made". The dangerous substances are said to include bisphenols, phthalates and poly- and per-fluoroalkyl.

The study claims that Bisphenol A (BPA), for instance, appeared in 98% of samples, while its substitute substance, bisphenol S (BPS), was found in more than three-quarters. These chemicals are apparently used to stiffen plastic and "mimic the action of oestrogen inside organisms, causing a range of adverse effects including the feminisation of males, early onset puberty in girls, and cancer."

The study doesn't make clear exactly how much exposure to such devices is assumed to be required to reach toxic levels. But it concludes, “given the prolonged skin contact associated with headphone use, dermal exposure represents a relevant pathway, and it is reasonable to assume that similar migration of BPA and its substitutes may occur from headphone components directly to the user’s skin.”

At this point, then, the implication is that the chemicals are present according to one study; that's as far as the research has gone. Moreover, the study did emphasise that many chemicals were only found in "trace" quantities, and thus not likely to cause harm.

#

However, ToxFree LIFE for All says that, "highest concentrations of harmful substances were found in the hard plastic parts of the headphones.

#

yeah guess what part of the headphone doesn't touch my skin

A lot of the good content has been seasonal too and they prune it into the vault regularly.

-# Well all logitech are shit lmao but i guess.
All superlights are really bad, i don't trust logitech with my mice anymore
look at this list of issues on G pro Xs
GPX1, GPX2, GPX2SE, GPX2 Dex, GPX2C, GPW, GPW2
All suffer from these issues
Coating falls off, Yellows FAST, Different batches have had different variations in switch weights
,Overpriced like crazy, More QC issues including scroll wheel issues
Uses optomech, has seen massive issues with double clicking development on major release batches and even recent batches
Bad stock skates
Performance wise fine, but outdated sensor type with polling instabilities sometimes
Batch 1 performs poorly at polling rates under 1000, detrimentally impacts click latency, tracking and polling consistency.
Side buttons are mushy.
R-L switches are mid
Broken m3 switch that skips and jumps
with this many issues i seriosly don't trust logitech
THEY know the issue
YET they refuse to fix it
thats why i don't trust logitech anymore
THESE ISSUES HAVE BEEN HERE SINCE G PRO WIRELESS IN 2018 WHICH IS 8 years OLD Some of these mice are 2 year old logitech is dumb

They’re available for back order rn that ik

craggy shoal
#

Based on a single Reddit post I've seen, yeah they're getting lightly scalped. You can buy them for normal price, but some people are selling them for $300-$400

opaque sedge
#

But basically the idea of the mouse is that u can adjust the amt of travel needed to register a click which should in turn “improve” ur reaction time

craggy shoal
#

So it's basically similar to a magnetic keyboard switch?

opaque sedge
#

Yeah i think so

craggy shoal
#

That's sick

opaque sedge

And as for the feedback click feeling it uses haptic motors for that apparently

Like phones and the macbook trackpads

craggy shoal

ehhhhh

I don't like that

I mean it used hall effect so there isnt a physical switch

There’s like very specific issues such as even more pronounced vrr flickers on oleds

bruh

#

I just want a 16GB GPU that supports PyTorch just to play with locally hosted AI (the good AI)

heady plinth
#

How would that make vrr flicker worse? Is it just less consistent frame times?

opaque sedge
#

Pretty chopped generation makes u wish they wouldn’t discontinue last gen products

craggy shoal
#

Surely that's just a driver issue, right?

opaque sedge
heady plinth
#

This first year of drivers hasn't gone well for them either.

opaque sedge
craggy shoal
#

I'll probably just get a couple 4060 16GB GPUs when I have the financial means for it

craggy shoal
nocturne flicker
#

This year of drivers never goes well for me either, so many of them don't understand that if someone is slowing down for a turn you don't try and ram their car derpyBlob

opaque sedge
#

And nvidia does release drivers to fix issues with specific monitors

#

So it could be a driver issue

#

But its crazy thats it affecting a whole generation

craggy shoal
#

Potentially a micro controller incompatibility issue? (I bet a lot of monitors use the same chips, which is why some monitors might have the issue while others wouldn't)

opaque sedge
#

Or maybe smth specific to display port version issues?

#

Cuz i believe 50 series uses dp2.1

#

While the 40 series used 1.4a

craggy shoal
#

That could actually very potentially be the issue

opaque sedge
#

Can’t test it unfortunately cuz only the mega premium oleds have dp2.1 rn

heady plinth
#

Radeon has been using dp2.1 for two generations.

#

Even a lot of the 500hz 1440p ones still use 1.4

opaque sedge
craggy shoal
#

I remember having issues with DP on my RX 480 at the time. The screen would sometimes just turn off lol (and yes this is after all of the driver BS from when the first released, when they'd eat up too much power from the motherboard and eventually kill it lol)
I ended up switching to HDMI at the time and had no issues after that

opaque sedge
#

I can’t test g sync on hdmi either since its not supported thru hdmi

craggy shoal
#

If you can get the same refresh rate with HDMI, use that instead. HDMI sometimes outweighs DP in reliability (at least in my experience)

opaque sedge
#

Doesnt get vrr tho i think

craggy shoal

HDMI supports VRR

I think my PS5 has VRR

opaque sedge
#

I would trade my 4070super for a 9070 non xt ngl to make a bazzite build

craggy shoal
#

Probably could do that tbh

opaque sedge
#

Still amd made great cards this generation

#

Unlike ngreedia…

#

Ngreedia cards did technically provide better price to performance compared to last gen tho albeit for the short span of 2 months last year

craggy shoal
#

I'd say they started making REALLY good cards since RDNA 2. My 6800 XT outperforms my 4070 Super in Cyberpunk 2077 (I think? One sec lmao imma find my benchmarks)

opaque sedge
#

Cybeprunk rasterized seems to prefer amd cards for some reason

#

They might have tuned in on the drivers because its a popular game to benchmark

craggy shoal
#

Two completely different systems. But I mean the 7900X heavily outweighs the 13400 usually(?), not to mention that the 13400 was on DDR4 at the time

...pulling numbers out of my ass but pcie 5 and a better cpu could prolly give me 5-10% more performance on my 5080

#

and i could slap back my 4070 super in my current system

#

and that is what i could have done if not for...

craggy shoal
#

My old TV's PSU killed itself (it was a basic, probably VA or IPS panel, 60 Hz, 4K screen), so I upgraded to a 4K mini LED TV. Best screen upgrade ever

misty sparrow
#

How much was it

craggy shoal
acoustic palm
craggy shoal
# misty sparrow How much was it

Like $500. Huge upgrade though. I've also convinced my father to change his mind from the basic IPS panel he was going to get as an "upgrade" from the TV we already had (it was Christmas. You know the drill), to a QLED panel. I don't think he cares or even notices the difference, but it was also a significant visual upgrade from what we previously had (in my eyes)
I think this TV was maybe like $600-$800 (forgot the exact price). Mainly more expensive because of the size of the screen (85")

acoustic palm
#

The cpu might but you’re at high res

opaque sedge
#

and he had an oc version gpu too

acoustic palm
#

It’s not worth it

opaque sedge
#

ik... just wondering what i should do with my 4070super

#

maybe i should get this and slap on a 1tb drive alongside the 4070super pepehmmm

misty sparrow
craggy shoal
#

I recommend going mini LED though if you can afford it. Much deeper blacks. All around the best screen if you're worried about OLED burn-in (or can't afford OLED) but want something nicer than QLED

opaque sedge
craggy shoal
#

It's not that bad

Two different TVs

unreal trail
#

ya hate to hear it

misty sparrow
#

I remember last year trying to get my dad a new 65” TV because the old one’s panel was going out and it was generally too dark in nighttime scenes to spot details

#

We went to Best Buy with a given budget of $500 (I think), recommended a good TV (think it was a Hisense that was rated good on Rtings)

#

Best Buy rep swoops in, convinces him to splurge on a QLED Samsung TV for more than his budget, convinces him not to get OLED even though he could probably fit one in what he paid for that TV

#

The TV’s fine but I was just appalled lmao

Infamous: Festival of Blood is a 2011 action-adventure video game developed by Sucker Punch Productions and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 3. Festival of Blood is an expansion of Infamous 2, but does not require a copy of Infamous 2 in order to play.
The story is set aside from the canon aspect of the Infamous serie...
