i was soo satisfied when he took a lava dip in the last movie

It is supposed to be tragic

I knew he'll never change

#

The whole shtick with Smeagol is that he could've been redeemed

#

But Sam screwed it up in the books

dusk knot
#

hm

#

I've only watched the movies

dusk knot
#

Ive only watched the trilogy once

nocturne flicker
#

Tolkien's letters stated that if Sam hadn't been so selfish and prideful in his loyalty to Frodo and hadn't mistreated Smeagol, Smeagol would've willfully destroyed the ring out of loyalty to the hobbits

dusk knot
#

wow

#

that changes things

#

i retract my lava dip statement lmao

misty sparrow
#

I've only seen the first film, don't think Gollum was really present in there that much

#

he was just following the fellowship pretty sure

dusk knot
#

he was

#

mhhm

royal crow
#

Smeagol does represent us in some ways

#

As sad as it is, like us, smeagol was, at his core, deceitful, so it is both tragic and a moment of retribution

dusk knot
#

hm

#

The human heart is indeed treacherous

#

I see it now

#

RIP SMAEGOL

# nocturne flicker Tolkien's letters stated that if Sam hadn't been so selfish and prideful in his ...

The exact content of the letter was

This is due of course to the 'logic of the story'. Sam could hardly have acted differently. (He did reach the point of pity at last (III 221-222) but for the good of Gollum too late.) If he had, what could then have happened? The course of the entry into Mordor and the struggle to reach Mount Doom would have been different, and so would the ending. The interest would have shifted to Gollum, I think, and the battle that would have gone on between his repentance and his new love on one side and the Ring. Though the love would have been strengthened daily it could not have wrested the mastery from the Ring. I think that in some queer twisted and pitiable way Gollum would have tried (not maybe with conscious design) to satisfy both. Certainly at some point not long before the end he would have stolen the Ring or taken it by violence (as he does in the actual Tale). But 'possession' satisfied, I think he would then have sacrificed himself for Frodo's sake and have voluntarily cast himself into the fiery abyss.

A PS3 is a PS3

#

Even if it doesn't run PS2 games on hardware

#

I will not however accept a PS2 slim as a PS2

#

PS2 slim inferior. All da boys hate the slim

misty sparrow
#

it always seems like the slim versions of playstation consoles take away what made the original model iconic in the first place

#

except for the first playstation slim that one was good

#

ps4 slim removes big light bar, ps5 slim looks like it's pregnant with the disc drive attached

nocturne flicker
#

Nah PS3 slim was good, looked a bit generic but the fat PS3 always looked a bit borked to me. Super Slim was trash though

#

Also the Slim was just way better internally than the fat

#

The PS2 slim was just the PS2 fat but slightly slightly faster at the cost of being less reliable and more likely to damage disks

How much of a pain is it to take the heatsinks off of these things?

Because the fat one kinda was

#

I had the slim and honestly I miss it

#

I miss playing gran turismo 5 on there

#

It was just different, and not even the same today, even if I got a ps3 again due to some online things being shut down

#

I ran it for like 10 minutes on an emulator and got to the menu. It felt like I opened a time capsule or something but it still just isnt the same

Low-key would consider that card over a 5080 if it was cheaper

It uses a shit ton of power

The moment when you idle at 100w

frigid stag
#

What’s wrong with it

#

100w idle is wild though

lone mango

Well you have to have a specific setup to trigger that

Like two high refresh rate and resolution monitors will do that

Just on the desktop?

#

Altho its hard to recommend a 5080 given their current price

#

Heck even in msrp its a tough recommendation

frigid stag
#

True. The fe drops are so rare too

lone mango
opaque sedge
#

900 would have been the appropriate price the 5080 given what it offers

lone mango
#

If it will actually hit 100w, maybe or maybe not

#

But it is possible

frigid stag
#

Kinda seems like I got owned by not getting a 3090 ti like my friend did on 40 series launch

opaque sedge
frigid stag
#

Was only 1k and got 24gb vram lasted like wine

opaque sedge
#

Do u need the vram for specific applications?

frigid stag
#

Not that I know of

lone mango
# lone mango But it is possible

The reason is because the vram has to clock higher due to how the framebuffer is implemented. This has actually been an issue for a while

frigid stag
#

Only on amd?

lone mango
#

Until rdna 4, yes

#

Although it seems to be more egregious with rdna 3, probably because of their interconnect wasting power

frigid stag
#

Rdna 3 or vega id understand but polaris doesn’t seem like it

#

Rdna 2 probably power hungry too

lone mango
#

For its time rdna 2 was actually pretty efficient, but would also crank up the memory system on idle, depending on your monitors

frigid stag
#

I’d consider 3 but 2 no after hearing the stores from someone I know who had one, queued frames, he had to do some obscure registry tweak to fix the cursor stutter etc

lone mango
frigid stag
#

Maybe he got a defective one though who knows, it fried itself last year and stopped working after like 2 years so might’ve been defective

lone mango
#

Yeah I have had two rdna cards and have never heard of that issue

frigid stag
#

Was 6800xt

lone mango

My 6700xt was using between 130-160 something watts after I undervolted it

might be getting too reliant on ai

#

i couldnt decide the toppings on my pizza so i had the comet assistant do it

#

or maybe this is what it was meant for

frigid stag
#

What did u ask it

pseudo raven
#

so they had a 10.99 deal

#

but it was 5 topping large pizza

frigid stag
#

🤔

pseudo raven
#

so i just told it to pick from all the veggie options

#

one of the biggest things was

#

green peppers vs roasted peppers

#

i got roasted this time but imo the regular ones clear

frigid stag
#

Yea that’s a tough one

pseudo raven
#

my parents are gone

#

for four days

i miss uber eats sometimes just for those deals but cant do that anymore where i live

#

delivery fee be costing more than the food where i live PepeRealizes

yeah also my food is always somewhat cold by the time it gets here

main loom
#

Guys shall i take 380 hz 27 inch 1080

#

I know it looks bad but how bad is it

random osprey
#

depends on the game its not super bad but its still kinda bad. with the pricing of 240hz 1440p monitors, id just recommend doing 1440p 240hz unless you want to wait for 300hz+ monitors to go down in price even more

main loom
#

No more quality or feeling

random osprey
#

everything is gonna look a bit off cause its stretching 1080p onto a larger screen thats meant for a higher resolution. slightly more pixelated or blurry depending on the game

#

for feeling, difference between 240hz to 380hz is probably minimal depending on the person. will assume you have tried it and know its an upgrade, id suggest to sticking to 24/25" if you plan on staying at 1080p

#

cant find a great picture, but kinda imagine this a bit. the 1080 side is what itd somewhat kinda look like on a 27"

#

at 1440p 27", the image will look a lot nicer and crisp, however you may lose some performance

Make sure you research alternative apps beforehand

Well after some tweaking

It is what proton is based on

Just tailored towards games instead

How much lag does it induce

lone mango

There are some edge cases where using proton on a windows app can actually be better but yeah

lone mango
nocturne flicker

Probably because the major ISPs have already been replacing their wiring in the streets for when they eventually fully switch to fiber in specific areas

I don't hate the idea but I do hate the space waste

It is a waste of resources, clutters the atmosphere and is a lazy private market solution to a simple problem

lone mango

Or I think it is two

nocturne flicker
#

Don't forget all the start ups that launch a satellite or two, go bankrupt and leaves space junk in orbit to eventually crash down in 30-40 years and kill someone

#

When it all could be avoided if ISPs were turned into proper utilities that use publically built infrastructure that is mandated to reach most if not all homes using initial funding from just not bloating the military budget for a single year

lone mango
#

Sorry I misremembered. It wasn't 2 but eventually it will be as frequent as that as this stuff gets worse year after year

#

It's like 20 or 30 minutes

#

Last year it was 30

nocturne flicker
#

I relinquish my soap box because I am probably already in the violating rule 1 territory

lone mango
#

dawg its a negative feedback loop 🥀

nocturne flicker
#

A negative feedback loop that'll explode the price of the plan even more than it is now, meaning instead of actually solving the problem, people'll be just told to spend 500 a month to get internet from the satellite that'll run out of fuel at the end of a 3 month cycle derpyBlob

lone mango
nocturne flicker
#

Rent your internet satellite

#

It'll be fixed to your home's location and at the end of the month it'll crash down directly next to your home and you are contractually required to pay for removal of the debris

#

And sign away any rights to sue if it crashes in the wrong location and damages anything. Including you or your family

#

Your are mandated to turn over the black box of the satellite to your ISP though, which will contain the log of your entire usage history in exact detail, which will then be compiled by you ISP digitally and sold to anybody

#

After a copy is handed over to the governing corporate entity of your region of course

Short, but you got to play one of the missions but with no timezone limits and it got unlimited respawns iirc for part of the map

So your ally, which was an incompetent general, would continuously send waves onto a beach and the enemy defenses would always refresh, so you could larp firesupport with arty

And since you had access to all the tech, you could just spam Calliopes

both 3200

what do you run rn

2x8

elfin mural

i'd do 2x8 imo

32 gigs is plenty of ram

#

you don't need anymore since you only game

lethal jasper
#

is the 5700x strong enough for 4 lanes

elfin mural
#

at 3200? not really

that's a pretty easy speed to run

if populating all dimm slots means you save money, i wouldn't be scared to lose some performance

should i get gskill or corsair

i have apacer rn

elfin mural

get gskill

#

corsair ddr4 sucks

lethal jasper

alr

#

might as well get better fans maybe

lethal jasper

molex is fine, though fan speed is fixed

#

dc is better in that you can control the speed

lethal jasper
#

hm theres also a 5 pack of pwms

elfin mural
#

dc and pwm work the same, they're just controlled differently

#

dc is applying direct voltage, pwm is pulsing the electricity signal

#

modern boards support both

lethal jasper
#

should i get these or a 5 pack of thermalrights from ali

elfin mural
#

idk how those antecs are

#

for your system i think they should be ok if you don't like to wait by ordering thru ali

lethal jasper
#

is controller supposed to mean a hub or something

lethal jasper
elfin mural
#

case fans are typically only a couple degrees apart

#

noise is a different story

lethal jasper
#

idk my molex fans are pretty quiet

elfin mural
#

then i'd say you don't need new case fans if you're fine with the existing ones

lethal jasper
#

eh i'll get ram now and case fans later
