general-chat

[bitter ridge]

John forgot to turn off his lantern here even during day time lol

[dusk knot]

Give me a reasonable logical reason why the videos that Tomie sent are not good

[nocturne flicker]

A) Trash B) Multiple errors C) Volume boosted D) Insipid nonsense

[dusk knot]

Invalid response

[nocturne flicker]

Insipid nonsense

[bitter ridge]

It's the usual Ai brain rot

[nocturne flicker]

Also use of goo goo ga ga

That is E)

[dusk knot]

Look, I know it's being used for a comedic cutesy quote on quote slop, but I'm mostly focusing on the visual fidelity here

[nocturne flicker]

B)

[dusk knot]

I think it's cute. You can't change my mind

[lone mango]

Brother it has the typical dream-like look with movement going from 0 to x amount of movement

[nocturne flicker]

AI has gotten so good
What is wrong with it
Nuh uh
It looks good
Well uh it is still cute
You can't change my mind

[dusk knot]

Bah. I stand on this mountain

[nocturne flicker]

You have to climb down eventually, the air is too thin for long term survival

[bitter ridge]

If it did a better job at looking like not obvious AI I think I would find it cute too

[dusk knot]

I'm not wasting my time in this conversation. I like it.

Those particular videos

And the tech is only getting better. You won't be laughing then

[nocturne flicker]

I was never laughing

[lone mango]

ai fellas say this every time

improvements have already started stagnating

[dusk knot]

The progress since 2023....look it up and see the progress. Don't deny it just because you dislike what people are doing with it.

[nocturne flicker]

My energy bill has gone up 20% for trashy ai videos like that, please tell me when I should start laughing

[dusk knot]

I'm not talking about what powers the technology, the results.

[bitter ridge]

Ram prices also mass layoffs because of replacement by AI

[dusk knot]

You guys are just changing the topic here.

[lone mango]

It is not "ai" actually replacing people

[dusk knot]

Anyways...thanks for the vid, Tomie.

[lone mango]

It is outsourcing and the effects of 80% of us dollars being printed in a few years

[nocturne flicker]

I'm talking about the actual human impact caused by this trash and how it is making me be very negative about this as a way of explaining why I am not laughing at crap ai video

[bitter ridge]

Outsourcing would mean actual humans still have a job but being replaced by AI is way worse then that

[dusk knot]

Well. I'm just going to end this conversation. The world moves on.

[lone mango]

Sure, but it is already starting to stagnate. They changed how chatgpt talked to make up for the lack of improvement and people were like "wow this is a lot better"

[dusk knot]

Look at the latest models like Seedance 2.0. its getting to the point that companies such as Disney and Paramount ordered a cease and the desist. It's getting better on physical understanding.

[wary fjord]

It depends on the environment they grew in and people around them xD impossible to like the same thing.. i do like it tho..

[queen briar]

Foxy isnt here. Qq

I cant help them 🙁

[nocturne flicker]

What up

[dusk knot]

I know that. They have the right to their own conclusions

I for one know it's the future.

As a graphic designer

[nocturne flicker]

The future is paying 50c per kwh of energy

[wary fjord]

Disney sign contract for sora i think..

[nocturne flicker]

https://tenor.com/view/you-smell-stinky-you-stinky-you-stink-wow-gif-24104350

[wary fjord]

Warner Music sign with SunoAi.. so expect ai music to be mainstream

Disney sign with Sora

[queen briar]

It's called Aura

[nocturne flicker]

You can practically see it it is so strong

[dusk knot]

It'll get more efficient when it comes to cost per token. The tech has only been in the mainstream for 5 years. it's still in its infancy.

[wary fjord]

I feel its cheaper to render on ai than actually doing simulation and rendering it

[queen briar]

Thanks bro.... but dont say it so loud or Goku is going to appear

[wary fjord]

They just need thos so called "prompt engineer"

[dusk knot]

The trend is alive and well. Just not with all companies

[dusk knot]

They did. And I hate them for that

[nocturne flicker]

Okay. So does that stop utilities excessively expanding to meet the current expected demand that is inflated by AI consuming everything and then passing that on in the form of higher energy fees or does that magically go away when your proclaimed efficiency arrives

[wary fjord]

Yeah soon you see movies from disney made out of it

[nocturne flicker]

Because infrastructure doesn't vanish when it isn't used

[wary fjord]

I dont watch movies now adays unless it has Ryan Reynolds on it xD

Funny guy

[dusk knot]

No. It doesn't go away as there's currently an arms race for who can reach AGI. These consequences are unfortunately in the time being unavoidable. But the price per operation is getting cheaper, not the other way around.

[nocturne flicker]

So?

It doesn't change anything I am talking about

[wary fjord]

They need to upgrade cloud computing into spaces computing xD aint it cold out there in the universe?

[nocturne flicker]

We get higher energy bills permanently in exchange for more efficient AI slop that is progressively killing the internet, what a trade

[wary fjord]

I dont like agi to evolve.. have u seen the robot from china.. they are synchronized doing karate

Without wobbling when flipping

Getting punched by those are gonna hurt

[worn wave]

No atmosphere means no convection, so you have to rely on radiation only

[dusk knot]

Look ... investments will eventually subside when the hype dies down then our electrical bills will be reduced. These companies don't care about us. It's just a fact of this system.

[nocturne flicker]

You don't understand how this works

Electrical utilities are limited on what they can charge usually based on how much infrastructure they have

[dusk knot]

Ok....and

[nocturne flicker]

They have more infrastructure they get to charge more

[dusk knot]

Right... they're building more

[nocturne flicker]

Infrastructure doesn't go away once it is built

[dusk knot]

Naturally

[nocturne flicker]

The charge increase will not go away

[dusk knot]

Well. We're in trouble.

[wary fjord]

Just harvest 🌞 energy.. for ai purposes..

[queen briar]

This is why we need to go Nuclear.

[wary fjord]

[dusk knot]

We can't do what QMB suggested awhile ago

[nocturne flicker]

https://tenor.com/view/willy-wonka-really-huh-gif-15522979

[queen briar]

If we go nuclear, our power issues are solved

[dusk knot]

It won't end the world. But the world and all it's faculties are getting worse....so.... rip

[wary fjord]

We have more nuclear bomb than nuclear plant xD

[lone mango]

Well, more people are dumbed down by it, so expect it to be niche

People now are too low iq to manage them

[wary fjord]

Are we running out of energy

Whats going on

[nocturne flicker]

Well we are running out of specific sources of energy

That is not going to change for quite some time

[dusk knot]

Ik it's bad. They don't care.

[nocturne flicker]

The problem is we need to output more energy to meet demand because demand is exceeding old growth expectations

[lone mango]

You could replace 40% of the corn fields with solar fields and it would power the entire country

[dusk knot]

Right right. I get you. When the ceiling has been raised, it won't go down. Costs will remain higher than before.

[lone mango]

Well, energy infrastructure expands slowly because it is predictable, so they just add however much more to the grid and budget and plan for it, but the increase from "ai" is so drastic that they quite literally cannot keep up with it

[nocturne flicker]

Ideally this would help spur people into realizing that growth cannot be maintained if we use finite resources for energy production

However, America

[wary fjord]

But the birds 😭

[lone mango]

That's wind

[wary fjord]

Free chicken

[worn wave]

Corn also uses far more water than ai

[nocturne flicker]

Need moar clean coal for our black lung and mercury poison fetish

[lone mango]

What you could do is plan it to have both wind and solar, which I hope but don't know if that would actually help or not

[tacit geode]

No I rather use coal power

[wary fjord]

I love energy harvest from running water flow

It less likely to fail and maintenance

I think xD

[lone mango]

Hydro is great but is limited depending on the location

[nocturne flicker]

Individual solar is never going to be the solution, we need wide spread solar and wind farms but sadly the people who really need to understand this insist otherwise

[dusk knot]

I understand where you're getting from. I still love the IDEA of AI and its promise, not the rough and ugly road that leads to it. As for that, it's a tragedy unfortunately

[bitter ridge]

Seems like massive clickbait

[unreal trail]

ohio is trying to build a nuclear power plant so we can all melt to shid when it gets droned

[lone mango]

What I was trying to say was to add some wind in the solar farm, but idk how that would play out

[nocturne flicker]

Eh

It is just better to put wind on actual farms

[wary fjord]

10m hamster on a wheel.. that should power something xD

[tacit geode]

I think we need dirty energy

[unreal trail]

perpetual motion machine

[lone mango]

You have to intentionally go out of your way to be negligent or be low iq russians to do have a reactor boom

[nocturne flicker]

And you can slap solar panels over parking lots

[lone mango]

Nuclear is actually pretty safe

[dusk knot]

They don't want that. Doesn't make as much money

[heady plinth]

It's youtube. Everything there is clickbait.

[lone mango]

Actually really safe

[tacit geode]

Clean energy is a joke

[nocturne flicker]

You know what is insane? Coal power plants

[lone mango]

What

[wary fjord]

Is it stable now? We wont get Chernobyl 2.0?

[lone mango]

Bruh

[tacit geode]

That would be awesome

[dusk knot]

Fusion power is the future

[tacit geode]

Call it Jacksonville

[dusk knot]

No meltdown risk

[nocturne flicker]

Coal power plants have to constantly be running no matter what because it takes a long time to heat them up enough to properly produce power

[lone mango]

Chernobyl was quite literally a fluke

[queen briar]

Why? It destroys the environment

[tacit geode]

That's the point

[unreal trail]

nuclear fusion is how we make babby

[dusk knot]

I can't believe a cute little penguin girl turned this chat into a warzone.

[tacit geode]

Screw the earth

[queen briar]

How

[lone mango]

There are nuclear plants in the us running right now and nobody even hears anything about it, until it goes bad then everyone loses it because of the fear that has been instilled into people by whoever

[nocturne flicker]

From a complete cold start it takes up to three days to heat it up enough and even then sometimes it can have problems

[queen briar]

No. Earth is beautiful

[dusk knot]

You live on it. You want it to turn into Mars?

Or Venus?

[nocturne flicker]

As such they have to go full blast at all times to prevent that downtime, so coal power plants are kept at peak energy production at all times even if the energy is not being used

[wary fjord]

If you think about it.. Earth Slowly eats us.. xD burried under us some civilization havent discovered yet

[wary fjord]

I feel this is a old number ive been hearing this sinc i was high school

[dusk knot]

It's like an insurance card in case humanity gets wiped out on Earth

[proud jackal]

Is it overpopulation or just mass poverty

[lone mango]

Kids in school are now multiple years behind. Young kids were literally just playing around with the pages in a book, just fiddling with it because they can barely read. Over half of americans read below a 6th grade level

[nocturne flicker]

What is the most played game? I believe goes to Ms.Pacman

[nocturne flicker]

Brother what are you talking about

People are still people regardless of urban or rural

[queen briar]

Which could also be the same result of different versions

[nocturne flicker]

And I can guarantee you rural specific stats aren't much better

Especially in states with purposefully weak education systems

After all, NY ain't the state with as crippling a teacher shortage

[queen briar]

If you make that assumption because 5 million kids in 10 states combined vs the 5 million in california alone, you're argument is flawed.

Yea that's 10 million kids total but the type of education given is different and theres other factors at play

[nocturne flicker]

Yeah, like the fact that California has better investment in their schools and teachers than a lot of 'inner states'

[queen briar]

Which is a good factor to bring up yet California has consistently had lower score numbers

[chrome mirage]

What kind of Corolla. Some of the classics are worth a lot to collectors.

The AE86 Corolla sells for like 40k

And when deeper looks are taken at states, you get things like less than half of Wisconsin's kids being able to read and do math at their grade level while maintaining test scores about the national average

[chrome mirage]

I almost bought a GTI. They drive really nice.

[craggy shoal]

Worth it

[queen briar]

my point is if you take the 5 mil kids in those 10 states, itll look like 3 million read at proficient levels, 1 million above, and 500k below. but when you add it into the total 50 million total registered kids in the US, they come off as insignificant. and as a whole they are seen as under performing and that deinsentivices them.

[chrome mirage]

The one I drove had a tune on it and it kept breaking fuel injectors.

[queen briar]

youre applyign a punishment to the group and not acnowledging the individuals for doing a job well.

[craggy shoal]

Yeah don't buy them tuned. Also try to get one under 60K miles. Or if it's past 60K miles, make sure it's had all of its services completed (60K mile interval is especially a lot)

[nocturne flicker]

And when talking about society as a whole, you need to talk about these groups as a whole. You can't just say oh in this specific part of the group in this part of the country in this demographic things are fine so everything is fine

If overall things are bad, it being not so bad in specific places doesn't change the fact that things are bad

[craggy shoal]

Idk the context but saying "yeah but this one guy I know..." isn't how to argue with a statement (just spreading the word to whoever needs to read that lol)

id rather reward the 5 people who did a good job then punish them with the rest who failed.

[lone mango]

What isn't diverse is the reading level, with over half of adults reading at an elementary level

[dusk knot]

I wish I could read

[nocturne flicker]

If 200,000 people fail and 5 people did good, something needs to be done to make sure those 200,000 people aren't failing, not to make those 5 people feel extra special for not failing

[queen briar]

correct. words are words, math is math. im not arguing with you as a whole the nation is down. what i said it dont take the average, take the median and remove the outliers.

[lone mango]

Well isn't this already how it is

[queen briar]

youre blowing those numbers out of proportion.

and if you dont reward the 5 who did well, then you installing that good work doesnt earn you anything cause you end up in the same place as the others.

[nocturne flicker]

Good work doesn't earn you anything besides more work

That is how employment works

You don't get rewarded for a good job

[frigid stag]

Wage slave life be like

[queen briar]

a reward doesnt have to be something given or that cost money, it is a tangible benefit. could b no homework that night, could be leaving to lunch 10 min early, could be getting to take your phone out in school.

[queen briar]

if you see it that way, sure. in many cases, thats true.

[nocturne flicker]

In most cases that is true

[queen briar]

but it also depends on what job you have. if you love it, its not extra work.

[worn night]

so his speech is meaningless?

[nocturne flicker]

Telling me work ain't work if I enjoy it doesn't change the fact that you have to work if you want to live

Work is work

[frigid stag]

Probably cuz you work a wage slave job at minimum wage no offence

Most people wouldn’t like it either

[worn night]

I turned 30 today.

[worn night]

happy birthday

[onyx merlin]

yup dam 30 years alive been a long time

[worn night]

doing something that pays the bills 🔥

[nocturne flicker]

A mandatory use of my time in return for material gain, usually in the form of capital, time not spent relaxing, performing the things I need to live and doing things to satisfy my needs

[worn night]

you need money for live

you need job for money

you need job for live

[queen briar]

[chrome mirage]

Happy birthday

[sinful blade]

Life sucks

[nocturne flicker]

Leaving it open ended for reader interpretation

[queen briar]

thats cause youre a vacuum. thats your life.

[frigid stag]

Idk what to tell you. Getting up and going to go to the store is also “mandatory”. Pretending like getting big bucks to do something u like is the same as a minimum wage job is just delusional though

[sinful blade]

Quick get the files

[queen briar]

theres farmers out there who do back breaking work every day, but none of them hate it and wouldnt wish for an easier job.

[onyx merlin]

real cause either side would be ragebaiting the other and people would watch and laugh

no matter how many people are appeased however, theres always the one who suffers from it

[queen briar]

@sinful blade this is the 2 meat combo. its like $13. for 15, its the same but they put the third in a bowl for you.

[opaque sedge]

Finally done with re3 remake

Ended abruptly ngl

[queen briar]

50% of the content was removed lol

[dusk knot]

How many fps

Average

[opaque sedge]

I locked it to 120 its a ps4 game gpu barely broke a sweat

[queen briar]

theres a down town where you spend like 30% of the game. then you go uptown. down town > rpd > uptown > down town > power plant > uptown > clocl tower > hospital > zoo > chemical plant. all the back trackign makes it feel long, despite is being short.

then there is the what... 5 optional nemy fights? not including scripted fight at the end.

[dusk knot]

120fps tops?

Huh….ff7 remake is the same

[opaque sedge]

120fps locked and my gpu usage was quite low i think I played it without any overlay so idk exactly how much it would max out at

[dusk knot]

Ok

[queen briar]

@opaque sedge ill buy you OG re3 if you play it

[opaque sedge]

I’m pretty traumatized from playing re2re and re3re back to back

Whats the original like?

Same gameplay?

[queen briar]

good

no .its PSX game

tank controls

[opaque sedge]

So tank controls

[queen briar]

if oyu played HD Remake, then its similar

[opaque sedge]

And absolutely terrifyinh

[queen briar]

just not same graphics

https://www.gog.com/en/game/resident_evil_3

@dusk knot

[opaque sedge]

Thanks for the offer but my backlog is hugeee rn dont think I would play it even if i had it so it would go to waste

[queen briar]

rip

this is like when roomba turned down my free gift of the deadspace remake

[opaque sedge]

The remake?

Thats crazy ngl

[queen briar]

yea. the 2023 version

its $9 on steam

[velvet summit]

worth a play for that as well

[queen briar]

dead space is a great game

[nocturne flicker]

They were good games

I even enjoyed the crap on rails shooter one

[queen briar]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2f7sJyIDU-Q

such a good song

[opaque sedge]

Does it lean more into action like current re games or is this a proper horror game?

[queen briar]

no, its a almost 1 for 1 remake.

[velvet summit]

https://tenor.com/view/rollin-keep-rollin-gif-12761235

[velvet summit]

it's more horror i'd say, though a fair bit of action

[queen briar]

its more horror than action than re4

[opaque sedge]

Damn must be absolutely terrifying

[queen briar]

paly it. its great

[opaque sedge]

Wishlisted for now

[queen briar]

if you had it would you play it right now

[opaque sedge]

I need to play re4 and then requiem first

[velvet summit]

get your horror chops up with resident evil and then play dead space

[queen briar]

yea but re4 sucks for horror

everyone says re5 was the down fall of RE series, but 4 started the action heavy crap

[opaque sedge]

Yeah it looks like a cool guy simulator

Re3 was meh ngl tho, too many cutscenes interfering with gameplay

[queen briar]

that doesnt happen with the OG

[nocturne flicker]

If you want just a horror themed action game DS3 is more like that

[opaque sedge]

Dark souls 3?

[queen briar]

hes gunan have to play DS1 to understand 3

[nocturne flicker]

Dead Space 3

[queen briar]

oh, nvm

[opaque sedge]

Ds reminds me

Death stranding is pretty darn scary too ngl

[queen briar]

https://tenor.com/view/joe-biden-presidential-debate-huh-confused-gif-9508832355999336631

The bts when they get u early game is absolutely terrifying man

[nocturne flicker]

Do you even really need to know the plot to understand Dead Space 3? I don't remember much but I don't really remember it being tied much to the other games

Then again I played it once and that was it

[queen briar]

i thought you mean dark souls.

[nocturne flicker]

Ah

[queen briar]

i cant say much. im horror games dont scare me

[brittle trail]

Man, I actually gotta show this thing off, so I got a new laptop yesterday

A Dell Inspiron 1545, and man, just look at how mint that thing is

Lemme tell ya, this thing is built like a absolute UNIT, it only has one access panel under it but man

You really only need one, cause everything's there

This was one of the last reputable Inspirons if I remember correctly, when Dell actually built these things to last more than 3 years lol

If that

[deep parcel]

I still have this game on my pc

it was a different Zack I think

Zacheri

I found it lol

[craggy shoal]

This is actually a real gun lol. I just cropped it out of another image

[velvet summit]

Not the airsoft type

I mean the toy that shoots like orbeezs

[craggy shoal]

I think I could print one of those lol

[velvet summit]

Nah ik it's a real rifle but it made me think of a less property damaging method of killing bugs that you don't want to touch

Lmao

[craggy shoal]

Idc. Violence is always an answer

I dunno article with the link had it at 750

[ashen swan]

send us the link

Maybe

maybe I'l just sell my 9070XT for this

338H Framework 12
Steam machine
Nintendo switch 2

thats a pretty good setuo

hm maybe a 325

[velvet summit]

praying for ram prices to come back down so my ideal laptop won't cost me $3k cad

[ashen swan]

what is it

[velvet summit]

framework 16

[ashen swan]

I'm also wating for Framework to drop the Panther lake laptops

https://community.frame.work/t/next-fw12-mainboard-upgrade/79516
heres the link btw

wait

no

I'll just get a i3 12th gen system

and upgrade later

[velvet summit]

config that i wanted (at least of what is out currently)

i'm hoping they release the next gen so i could just get the previous gen (this gen) for a discount

[ashen swan]

my confiq

Without ram btw

[unreal trail]

wat

[ashen swan]

Framework 12

[elfin mural]

keep in mind that the framework 12's screen is horrible

[ashen swan]

Yes

[velvet summit]

previous gen price for the config i would want for the most options of future expansion

[ashen swan]

their also planning gen 2 alr

[velvet summit]

current gen

[ashen swan]

jesus

[velvet summit]

price in cad

[ashen swan]

their gonna put the 338H at 45000 NTD at this point

[ashen swan]

but still

[velvet summit]

yeah it's not cheap

but if i'm to buy another laptop, it would be a framework
because i would be at least able to replace parts without needing to find a doner laptop

[ashen swan]

all for a dream Laptop 😭

okay 32,000 NTD

I would estimate
25000 For 338H + New display

hmmm

okay maybe i would just go for a 336H or maybe a 325

[velvet summit]

im sure glad all resident evil bosses and mini bosses have big targets that make it obvious where the weakspots are so that streamers can tell where they are supposed to attack.... right???? right????????

[ashen swan]

hm

so since

[velvet summit]

btw this config would have been only 2.7k ish if not for the ram prices

[ashen swan]

I have a GM7 2 tb and 1 tb

[velvet summit]

i didnt add any storage since i can just move my current drive from my laptop to that laptop (since it has 2 drives in it)

[ashen swan]

i can sell the 1 tb

and for ram

idk

“You’re building a new PC on a strict budget, but you have a voucher to get the absolute best-in-class version of just one peripheral. If you pick one top-tier item (Mouse, Keyboard, Monitor, Headset, Controller, etc), every other part must be the cheapest, generic brand you can find. Which one is worth the investment?”

or something like that

adjust how ya want

[worn wave]

Mouse and it's not even a question

Cheap mice are absolutely horrible

[icy ore]

I dunno man a crappy lcd 60hz 720p monitor would be pretty bad

[worn wave]

I have a cheap AliExpress mouse for my laptop (not even the worst one by a long shot) and it SUCKS

I suppose you could go for a monitor and just watch movies instead of gaming

[icy ore]

Im also imaging like one of those cheap foldy chairs from Walmart 💀

[worn wave]

Or get this and then sell it to finance every other peripheral

[icy ore]

lmaooo

yeah I guess question should be adjusted to “can’t sell the item chosen”

[worn wave]

Can I get one of those straw devices that disabled people use as mice? Once I learned to use it I imagine the cheapest one of those would be better than the cheapest mouse

[velvet summit]

i'd rather use one of those dell ewaste mice than have to live with the most generic cheapest monitor which would be like some like TN or VA panel at like 1080p 60hz with not even 100% srgb coverage at a screensize of probably like idk 14"

[worn wave]

Ok but dell eswaste mouse isn't the worst mouse out there

[velvet summit]

i mean, i guess

i've not really used much worse though

[worn wave]

If I could take an OEM mouse I'd definitely do that. But if it's literally the worse mouse possible it's gonna suuck

[velvet summit]

though dell used to have pretty decent oem mouse

tbf the prompt isnt the worst mouse possible

it's the "cheapest generic brand one you can find"

[worn wave]

I guess if you could get one for free then that's the cheapest

[velvet summit]

sorting by cheapest on aliexpress

very light lmao

[worn wave]

My AliExpress mouse had a weight in it

[velvet summit]

weighted mice were the thing back in like 2010

it was like a selling point

[worn wave]

Yeah this weight was in a terrible position too

[velvet summit]

like one of my mice i used back then the marketing was "adjustable weights"

you could take out or add weights as preferred

#peripherals-and-displays message

I miss Felix :(

[nocturne flicker]

You guys have chairs?

[velvet summit]

also i gotta say, the prompt doesnt specify that the cheap peripherals are the only peripherals you can use for the rest of the time you have the pc
the "best in class" monitor costs the most out of any peripheral to get, upwards of several grand
if you just live with the worst peripherals for like a year as you slowly make the money to upgrade everything else to be decent, i think it would still be the best choice to just get the greatest computer monitor mankind has to offer

the best mouse is still under a grand

(thankfully)

[nocturne flicker]

How about a poll about your favorite poll

[pliant berry]

I too would pick best in class monitor

[sinful blade]

Monitor 100%
I have a $9 mouse and $13 keyboard and they’re fine

[opaque sedge]

Monitor 100% best in class monitors provide an absolutely insane experience

And good mice and keebs can prolly be had for under 100 and a decent wired headset can be found for well under 50 too

[bitter ridge]

It gotta be monitor for me

[opaque sedge]

https://youtu.be/AMi88tMRj6s?si=ahJJMJMSA3w5wi4w damn so leon kennedy is basically getting james bond treatment now

[bitter ridge]

The car Collab is cooler since that one is not a limited edition thing

[heady plinth]

I'd take monitor too. I use cheap off brand stuff for everything but monitor and keyboard anyway.

Though Gamesir and Attack Shark and KZ are more 'good value' sort of cheap than 'junk' cheap.

Sounds like you are stalking me mister Googolaire

[nocturne flicker]

Are you the snob who bought a second house just so he could take it down and have a better view of the mountain

[opaque sedge]

2k euros according to the video, been scalped to hell alr according to the comments

[nocturne flicker]

It is a watch, of course it is being scalped

Fancy watches are primarily vehicles for money laundering and tax evasion

Why wouldn't they also be speculative assets

[velvet summit]

my spaghetti code is working

[nocturne flicker]

What type of spag does it make

[velvet summit]

it ins the not spaghetti becomes the spaghetti and out the not spaghetti

[dusk knot]

Rip

I've seen better

[nocturne flicker]

What

[dusk knot]

There was this $15k or so watch I saw in a Brazilian high end mall. It was Soo nice 😭

I might have an image of it....

[velvet summit]

the it spagheti in the out not become spaghetti in the spaghetti not and

[dusk knot]

The lower left one was $16k. Smh

[velvet summit]

16k for that???

[dusk knot]

Yeah

[velvet summit]

looking at the image to the right, it might be a dive watch, but how deep can it go

[dusk knot]

Hmm

No idea

[velvet summit]

though wait

it's a leather strap

it cant be used for diving unless you change the strap

[dusk knot]

No idea

[velvet summit]

even if i had 16k to get rid of immediately because it will kill me if i don't spend it, i aint spending that on that

on

g

i could get such a more visually appealing watch for 16k

[dusk knot]

What would it be?

After that I would probably get the one in the middle

It's 17,500 reals

So...that's

[velvet summit]

nvm this shi is 18.5k

oh

not usd

[dusk knot]

$3290

Double

[dusk knot]

👀

Any real world images? I like it

Kinda

[velvet summit]

https://youtu.be/i79T2IzOEfM

if it's "just" 3k usd then it's not as bad as 16k usd lmao

[dusk knot]

You know what...nvm

I don't like it

[velvet summit]

it's a much more visually interesting watch

than if that watch was 16k usd

but since it's not then yeah it's not a good comparison lmao

[dusk knot]

You're not wrong

[nocturne flicker]

Am I having a stroke

[dusk knot]

You're not alone

[velvet summit]

though even for 3k usd you could find a pretty visually interesting watch, though maybe not as unique as that expensive hunking thing 💀

[velvet summit]

yeah

meant to reply to weary

[nocturne flicker]

Do you watch visually interesting watches for things you like to watch

[dusk knot]

[nocturne flicker]

Sad

Which watch would you watch if you wanted to watch some interesting watches

[dusk knot]

It would have to have some kind of screen

[nocturne flicker]

Ah, so you would watch a watch screen on a watch which would have watches on the watch screen so you can watch watches while watching your watch

[dusk knot]

Yes

[velvet summit]

🧐

[nocturne flicker]

I guess the only question I have is who watches the watcher of the watches which watches watches on watches with screens which show watches for the watcher of watches to watch while being watched by a watcher of watchers

And I am now bored of saying versions of watch

[opaque sedge]

I have a question abt mousegrip

Does claw grip have a portion of the palm resting on the mousepad or is it entirely on the mouse?

[icy ore]

[velvet summit]

Unfortunately I don't know if that can be posted due to the political content

Someone might be triggered by discussing corruption

[rancid juniper]

heh

Who’s going to see Project Hail Mary in theaters?

https://www.reddit.com/r/radeon/s/fYN4nWlTJK oh man this sub is full of salt rn 💀

[dusk knot]

Ik you go to the movies.

[rancid juniper]

seeing alot of really concerned/angry people on that sub

😂

[opaque sedge]

They alr lost when they considered smth as future proof tbh

[opaque sedge]

People should buy hardware that can provide the best experience possible atm for their budget

They shouldn’t bet on future unreleased features tbh

[rancid juniper]

someone pointed out this: "Remember when people who bought AMD cards 2 years ago said that upscaling doesn't matter? Pure raster is still great!"

[dusk knot]

Cool cool

Only one seat. Theo alone

[rancid juniper]

you should watch movies with theo

[proud jackal]

[opaque sedge]

Funny thing is I remember that sub being confident abt better non hardware dependent fsr versions being available in the future 💀

Because dlss was hardware locked at the time (still is) but fsr wasn’t

[nocturne flicker]

The heck is IMAX 2D Experience

Who labels it as 2D

[proud jackal]

[rancid juniper]

I watched an anime film in IMAX so i guess that counts?

[rancid juniper]

lolololololool

[nocturne flicker]

1D films wen

[dusk knot]

Too far away

[rancid juniper]

when reality collapses, so not far from now

[opaque sedge]

I feel bad for people who bought the xtx for a grand 💀

[nocturne flicker]

Where we're going we don't need reality

[opaque sedge]

Not for those who got it for 800 tho

(They were available for 800 at the second half of 2024 periodically)

[rancid juniper]

It's wild because intel (gpu division) is doing what AMD cannot

XeSS works for ALL gpus and for Arc it looks better thanks to their special accelerators (XMX)

[nocturne flicker]

What if you both go to the theaters and then have a video call going at the same time

[opaque sedge]

Intel needs to release a 70 class card ngl

[nocturne flicker]

Intel needs to release

[rancid juniper]

too bad they fumbled the b770 later in development

[opaque sedge]

These

[nocturne flicker]

Those

[opaque sedge]

Oof what happened

[rancid juniper]

I don't know much but it could be that they changed their mind late in the pipeline because of costs due to market shifts or just its done too late

idk

[nocturne flicker]

You know for a company named Intel they don't seem to have much of it
