Bandwidth Sharing FAQs + Troubleshooting

[latent breach]

Downgraded it and got sgs

[empty hinge]

💀 the sgs i got on current ver is using 0.1 mbps

like bro is not getting load

even tho its athelas gateway which i heard was good

[latent breach]

That's just static pay...your sgs is not actively using your internet

[latent breach]

What's the RAM uses by sgs?

[empty hinge]

currently its 15 mb

it generally uses upto 100 mbps when its active

[thorny imp]

Anyone know if Daisy (Scandinavian) has demand

had sgs for about 4 hours on the daisy server with little to no demand, salad ver 1.6.9 if that makes any difference.

static pay* ^

[empty hinge]

🙂 bro if i restart my salad bowl

it'l close the sgs and when it restarts what are the chances i

get a load

T_T

[thorny imp]

SGS is based of demand and speeds, so if your speeds are very bad and somebody else has better internet on the same server they will get the job instead (iirc its like that)

[empty hinge]

😔

ahh the static pay

eff

[gleaming shell]

same

[true halo]

Get enough people to use salad and we'll end up doing that.

Probably what happened yesterday tbh

[thorny imp]

how tf are you making that much from only bw?

what server are you on lmao

[robust creek]

i forgot where to check it

[latent breach]

my neighbour should really consider upgrading their router...I aint getting proper coverage...

[thorny imp]

C:\ProgramData\Salad\logs\Bandwidth-SGS-SO < choose your countries BW logs

[robust creek]

i saying lot of things but not that one

[thorny imp]

its at the very top line of your most recent log

[latent breach]

Alternatively, you can also install glasswire to check which gateway your sgs is connecting to

[robust creek]

i already have it but it's bugged and doesn't work anymore

[misty furnace]

just release another broken update that spams ndm

happened once

[robust creek]

it's not most recent, i had to check older ones

[thorny imp]

👍

[robust creek]

📉

[thorny imp]

mine has also been quite low for the past 20 hours or so, just now starting to get a bit of bw again

[empty hinge]

Guys the ndm logs shows my upload speed is less than 10mbps
and when i tested it on librespeed's site on the same server its well above 150

[upbeat shuttle]

^^ @empty hinge

[empty hinge]

💀 bro but the thing is its choosing the correct server
but the results on their official site and ndm logs dont match

[upbeat shuttle]

:(

the librespeed app is apparently worse than the website, and we can't really do much about it

[lavish glen]

invent librespeed 2

[empty hinge]

lets see what happens

[lavish glen]

make sure you do it while you're inside a basement

[misty furnace]

"rare"

[misty furnace]

the app used php and the website uses js

[gleaming shell]

rip

might be over

[latent breach]

The middle finger around 10 AM is equivalent to what most bw sharing users earns in a day😂

[lavish glen]

bw sharing makes at least like $1 a day in my country

unless you dont have gigabit

[empty hinge]

u guys getting making from bw sharing mine aint starting XD

[misty furnace]

bandwidth sharing is bad in the US and seems nearly impossible to get

haven't had it in months with gig/gig and 2-4ms ping

[empty hinge]

I'm in india tho

[latent breach]

I'm from India and its random for users to get sgs here...some get within a few minutes, for some people it takes days

[empty hinge]

i guess it's gonna take days for me

[lavish glen]

all i can say for sure

if you have particularly good internet it takes less time

[empty hinge]

i dont have gig/gig connection but it was earning me good

[latent breach]

What's your speed?

[lavish glen]

it also depends on the country

[misty furnace]

I don't think even good internet works here :(

early august was the last sgs I had, getting close to 3 months now

[lavish glen]

you're in the US

there's no winning

[empty hinge]

500/500

[misty furnace]

you're in France

[lavish glen]

there is plenty of winning to be done here

[empty hinge]

wait you're the france guy who's making 2$ a day from bw

[lavish glen]

no

but i could be

[latent breach]

Quite good

[lavish glen]

hopefully soon

[empty hinge]

💀 i seriously wanna know how much bw he's using to make 2$ a day

@latent breach you have that 3.3 TB cap?

[latent breach]

33 tb a month

[lavish glen]

probably just gigabit?

[latent breach]

Nope, mine is unlimited

[misty furnace]

🏳️

[empty hinge]

nh like his data usage is bro using 5 TB per week or something XD

[lavish glen]

if you guys wonder how people get insane internet in france, it's because its cheap and reliable. it doesn't go further than that

[lavish glen]

he could have 8000/8000 then

[empty hinge]

😔 ahh eff i guess my airtel is limited at 3.3

[latent breach]

The max I have been able to use is 1.4TB a month

[empty hinge]

💀

[latent breach]

Sometime broadband from and airtel, jio have problems to get sgs

[lavish glen]

im using 0kb a year personally

[empty hinge]

I guess we'll never know moment

[empty hinge]

🫡 bro lives in forest

[lavish glen]

no, i have bad luck

[empty hinge]

how is bro usin dc
charcoal fire?

[misty furnace]

I use 2tb/day with containers lmao

[lavish glen]

i live in the only building in the region that doesnt have fiber internet

[empty hinge]

ayooo

[empty hinge]

sucks to be in this position

[latent breach]

on any fine day sgs starts using interent once it has accumulated ~8-10 MB data in RAM

however that's not the case today

[empty hinge]

the good days

my sgs using 100 gb on a good day

but bro is not running right now T_T

[latent breach]

https://tenor.com/view/cookie-good-day-britannia-cashew-britannia-good-day-gif-6966519877572727561

[latent breach]

On the best day mine had used about 78 gb. (80mbps up down)

[empty hinge]

just need everyday like this T_T

[empty hinge]

eating them rn

[gleaming shell]

~100gb+ of bandwidth usage in the us barely even scrapes like 30 cents

[gleaming shell]

Assuming this is us pay per gb

Or approx

[misty furnace]

0.000

[gleaming shell]

or that

[latent breach]

1 GB here pays 1/2 cents

Isn't that same everywhere?

[gleaming shell]

the uk seems to have better pay than the us

i record my daily earnings and daily data usage in a spreadsheet, then use that to calculate the pay per gigabyte

[empty hinge]

nh we get better pays than US according to data i've seen

[gleaming shell]

The us is literally the worst country in terms of bandwidth sharing

Bad demand, bad pay, no static pay

if I were to run bandwidth sharing on a desktop I'd probably make 0 profit or even negative, but I have it running on a low power laptop so I'm still able to profit

[empty hinge]

50 hours uptime still sgs not started

[gleaming shell]

average salad experience

[empty hinge]

looks like my bw sharing days are over cuz salad aint starting sgs

[empty hinge]

re installing helps in this case?

[latent breach]

Try giving a shot

[empty hinge]

i did everything

😋 i guess salad said ok kid

[lavish glen]

how fast is your internet

and what country

[empty hinge]

india

500/500

[lavish glen]

odd

should be good

[empty hinge]

😔

[lavish glen]

maybe theres a lack of demand in india

[empty hinge]

i kind off know what's affecting it

somebody said
restart your salad bowl service if you're not getting good server while speed test on librespeed
and i guess that decreased my reliability/trust score

and if that's the case i'm fucked gonna leave it on for 2 days updated today

[empty hinge]

life's good

[lavish glen]

real

[empty hinge]

idk how with every update salad shows me middle finger

[white knot]

just close salad until they dont do updates in a couple days

u cant even earn when they're frequently updating

ps: i a guy who didn't update salad since 1.6.5 and didnt turn it on it thru out the days

[empty hinge]

🙂 what can i do

[white knot]

use other software ofc

[empty hinge]

whats the point of keeping it up to date XD

[latent breach]

@empty hinge I've seen other airtel customer to compliain about not getting sgs. It't not on Salad, it's prolly because of your ISP

[empty hinge]

kinda understand that thing but how come 5 of the people i know use airtel and are earning T_T

[latent breach]

Only explanation: Sunil Mittal has some personal dusmani with you

[empty hinge]

😔 there's nothing we can do

[empty hinge]

guys T_T a new problem i reinstalled salad but the sgs client is no where to be seen in the files

[misty furnace]

salad will download it when you get a job

no need to worry

[prime saddle]

Lol

I can't believe that salad is still having alpha and beta problems in releases...

[safe loom]

what

[prime saddle]

Seriously

In salad, if you use both CPU and GPU, it's slow, but if I disable both, it would be faster

Seriously, why do my earnings be so bad (1 cent per week) most of the time, but disabling both CPU and GPU just makes it up to 40 cents a day??

Updates and restarts also makes it go back to defaults

Sometimes bandwidth sharing would be better for older PCs, and other times it needs to be turned off for higher end

I hope one day there would be a settings file in salad for it to use as default so I can customize and not worry about restarting my PC resetting it or updating salad resetting it...

[robust creek]

sadly power went off while i wasn't at home and sgs took some time to come back too, let's see how much it will take to get traffic again

[empty hinge]

i am not gonna get jobs i guess

[hollow vortex]

last 30 days 😐

[empty hinge]

my power went off and from 3 days my sgs client usage is 0
XD cuz it aint starting

[empty hinge]

🫡 thank you everyone in this community for their advices

finally its running

atleast eligible for the static pay if nothing

[empty hinge]

😔 its henna gateway but somethings better than nothing

[misty furnace]

one day I'll have sgs again...

[lavish glen]

one day I'll have real internet

and why is cities skylines using 73% of my cpu

[keen cradle]

what countries are avaible?

for bandwitch sharing

[upbeat shuttle]

^^^ here's the list @keen cradle

[empty hinge]

do we get the sgs gateway randomly ?

[misty furnace]

pretty much

[empty hinge]

oo ohk

btw you said

that salad automatically installs the sgs client

if i remember correctly there used to be 2 sgs folders and currently there's only one

[misty furnace]

yep; a folder for each gateway it tries to run

[empty hinge]

I only have the file of the bad one 🙂

[misty furnace]

I actually have 10 sgs folders because we had 10 gateways in the US at a point

[empty hinge]

in india there are two gateways

[empty hinge]

💀

that was my doubt like there should be two of em

without it salad will keep assigning me the bad one only

[misty furnace]

it can only run one at a time per machine, so it won't be instant

[empty hinge]

Well i only have one machine so no problem

so according to that the next time power goes of and my pc restarts
salad will try to find the gateways
and the second folder will also be downloaded ??

[misty furnace]

if salad feels like it, yeah maybe

[empty hinge]

if it doesnt salad dont want me to earn T_T

anyways thanks for your help

[empty hinge]

powercut and sgs is gone bahaha

[latent breach]

Peak India moment

[empty hinge]

well gonna write a letter to electricity department you are the reason fro my death

[latent breach]

My electricity office gets heart attack if they doesn't turn off the supply 69 times a week

[empty hinge]

@latent breach what yo think now my sgs gonna start or not

[latent breach]

Try reinstalling Salad.
restart your PC and install Salad then
I hope this helps to get sgs fast.

[empty hinge]

🙂

trusting you brother

cuz last time someone saod close salad bowl and i'm sure that decreased my trust score

[latent breach]

Yup!

And don't touch your PC or don't let your cat play with your mouse after you start chopping!

[empty hinge]

kayy buddy

gonna do it

[latent breach]

I did some maths and found that if sgs is suing 50mbps internet, it would take just 6.37 hours for me to get a 50rs. flipkart gift card @empty hinge

[empty hinge]

🫡 that's a good thing

but sgs startt T_T

🙂 but aint starting

[empty hinge]

🧐 this means approx 200 a day but only when the job lasts

[empty hinge]

bro nothings working

but i appreciate your help ( and i'm using phone as you said dont touch PC ) no spikes to be seen

[latent breach]

That's unfortunate.

Are you sure about your PC's sleep settings?

[empty hinge]

yes only the screen turns off it aint sleeping

[lavish glen]

i have mine the same way

if anything it helps

[empty hinge]

ya just the client running atleast some static pay
but

salad ahhh

[lavish glen]

when it actually runs

[empty hinge]

yea but it aint runninn

🙂

[lavish glen]

it wont run for me either but i dont try because my internet sucks anyway

i dont expect it to want it

even i dont want it

[empty hinge]

but my internets good and i want it T_T

[lavish glen]

holy

my wifi adapter is so LOUD

but yeah

this is the best speedtest ive ever got btw

with this internet

[empty hinge]

sgs client shying away

[lavish glen]

i managed to get more download

[empty hinge]

💀 deyumm

but the ping is crazyy

[lavish glen]

its slow

[lavish glen]

yes

ping is terrible

its LTE

[empty hinge]

the upload

[lavish glen]

download aswell

[empty hinge]

🧐 not 5G ?

[lavish glen]

no?

[empty hinge]

nh download is good

[lavish glen]

i dont have 5g

[empty hinge]

where you live china or USA?

[lavish glen]

neither

[empty hinge]

itlay?

[lavish glen]

i live in france, i would have 1000mbps download and upload but the building im in is a special case where they haven't been able to put fiber internet yet

all the other neighbours have it

[empty hinge]

💀 like the speed depends on country

for some places its enough except the ping

[lavish glen]

id have low ping aswell

[empty hinge]

💀 the odd one out

[lavish glen]

my country has one of the best if not the best internet infrastructure that exists

[empty hinge]

your building chose to differ

[lavish glen]

my building is mostly about the owners of the building and legal stuff

id have to pressure them to get it going with installing fiber internet

[frigid reef]

https://tenor.com/view/doja-cat-star-wars-gif-25078126

[lavish glen]

but i might move out in 6-7 months

[empty hinge]

well you're elder chef meaning
you've good gpu's for containers

[frigid reef]

nvm dont do it

[lavish glen]

do i?

[empty hinge]

🫡 dats great

[frigid reef]

no?????

[lavish glen]

do i though

[empty hinge]

nh a maths guy assuming random things

[frigid reef]

bro is yapping

[lavish glen]

nah i think i do bro

my gpu is so good

[empty hinge]

💀 ya

for gaming

[frigid reef]

its so good even intel beat amd to wsl 2 support

[lavish glen]

im getting $10 containers rn

[lavish glen]

this is so real

its like amd likes it

[empty hinge]

💀 you joking na

i red somewhere that amd gpu not supported or maybe idk i'm new

[lavish glen]

they enjoy being pathetic

kinda sus

[lavish glen]

yes.

[frigid reef]

amd gpus are not supported for containers due to amd not fully supporting wsl 2, intel with their arc gpus are now supported by wsl 2 from my understanding so if salad gets the demand + adds support they will beat amd to container support

[empty hinge]

but if you ccan play wukong its justified isn't it?

[lavish glen]

what

i dont play that game

but ig i could

technically

[empty hinge]

logically

possibl

[lavish glen]

im still getting an arc gpu

[empty hinge]

thanks for the info

[lavish glen]

i could get one rn but im waiting for new releases

[empty hinge]

yeah that would be good too

[lavish glen]

some said th new arc gpus might compete with 4070/4080

which would be good

its the same amd is expected to compete with aswell

i wonder whos gonna be cheaper

i have a feeling its intel

[empty hinge]

ya intel should be cheaper

[lavish glen]

lego

[empty hinge]

all things aside this sgs

[lavish glen]

sgs is cooked

[latent breach]

we are sgs-ing at a very sloooow speed

[empty hinge]

atleast u have sgs

[latent breach]

hey @empty hinge do you have a static or a dynamic ip address?

[empty hinge]

sadly airtel only supports static ip adress

and i'm fucked by tht

[latent breach]

I also have static ip

I think a static ip is better for sgs

[empty hinge]

according to site help
dynamic is better but whatever helps

your's started just now?

or it's running

[latent breach]

here's the chart

[frigid reef]

i hate you

[empty hinge]

enjoy until it lasts

[latent breach]

life update: collecting hate rn😒

[frigid reef]

you are showing a graph without showing the most important part the numbers on the left

[empty hinge]

💀 ayoo wait bro if your chart is like this

considering traffic is available on bw right now

and it might open a few window

hehe hope

[latent breach]

Aha, the previous graph was intended for showing the duration my sgs was running for

There's nothign special here

[latent breach]

wdym?

[empty hinge]

if your sgs is going like that

in container terms ig i wanna say
that

if you're getting containers after a long wait
means containers are starting to come in
means i can also get one

overcomplicate things

[latent breach]

my sgs basically

static pay + some kind donation offered by Salad HQ

[empty hinge]

ya tht donation i was talking about

if the HQ is blessing
means there is a slight chance my sgs can atleast start

even tho static pay only

[latent breach]

Don't you have 5G?

[empty hinge]

I do

[latent breach]

Then run the speedtest on 5g internet and then start Salad

[empty hinge]

you mean the librespeed test?

it ran on 5g only my pc is always connected to that

[latent breach]

Didn't you mentioned that you have airtel fibre?

[empty hinge]

Ya

[latent breach]

So 5g or airtel fibre?

[empty hinge]

5 giga hertz broadband you mean right ?

[latent breach]

nope

5G,,,4G,,,,cellular data

[empty hinge]

nh nh that 5G i dont have 😔

bruhh the last time this guy started yesterday night

i got henna gateway

💀 like salad is making it worse for me

[latent breach]

I too am running on henna

[empty hinge]

i never got henna before that
and someone told me that henna is bad

[empty hinge]

yo!! so it good or bad compared to athelas one

[latent breach]

Henna can sometime be on 🔥
But in 90% of time it's not

[empty hinge]

what i experienced in 12 hours cuz that's how long the good times lasted

ya when you get a job on henna

it pays

a load

my friend
💀 bro had 0.12$ sticks for an hour

[latent breach]

I had $0.05 max

[empty hinge]

😔

mine is 0.03 on athelas

on henna i was on static all the time except maybe 30 minutes or somethign

💀 bro

should i restart salad bowl

there's just that itch

[latent breach]

athelas seems more consistent than henna

[empty hinge]

ya it's consistent

like highest i made was 0.6$ a day on it or maybe 0.557$ something like tht

[latent breach]

If you don't have sgs running now, you can try that

[empty hinge]

will it reduce my trust score

[latent breach]

I don't know anything like that
prolly a bs

[empty hinge]

the friend i was talking about was showing off his earning and he was like lemme restart and show i get sgs instantly and after that we both stuck with no sgs

[latent breach]

https://tenor.com/view/haha-so-funny-gif-27253208

[empty hinge]

but i've kinda experienced it
on friday night
i restarted the service for maybe like 5 times in the span of 3 hours and it didnt start ( m y sgs usually starts in 30 mins ) and after that someone told dont do it it hurts trust score and after waiting the entire what 24 hours i got sgs runnign

but let's do it

drink mountain dew

[latent breach]

Mounrain dew.....Daar ki.....

[empty hinge]

broo btw

i only had 5 tabs running

trust me and that too 2 of em were e commerce and 2 youtube

chrome is the new wsl for containers

[latent breach]

Bro you chromee....

I've 10 tabs runnning with 1 whatsapp

[empty hinge]

💀

ahh

tf this guy has a problem wid me

is the proper way to restart it is

stop chopping close salad and then restart
or open task manager boomm closed salad bowl

[latent breach]

Task manager

I keep looking at task manager all day long like its my gf

[empty hinge]

straight up f the chopping i'mm restart the bowl

[empty hinge]

😔 can feel you bro

done

I've got nothing to lose at this point

cuz i know tommorow there'll be a powercut too

[latent breach]

India...India..

[empty hinge]

now we wait until it starts

[empty hinge]

nothing we can do

[latent breach]

well we can buy an inverter battery

[empty hinge]

i wannna knoww when they wanna collect bills and shit they're like time to pay this is reciept

[empty hinge]

it gives me 8hr backup without running my pc and 3 hour with da pc

but the thing is a strike is happening in the city

😄

i dont know why am i so concerned about sgs running knowing that tommorow my pc will be in a long sleep

and whatever it is ahead

[latent breach]

Take a Milton flask, make some coffee / tea, go out... you'll earn more in an hour than what you can add with salad in a week.
@empty hinge

[empty hinge]

💀 i'm a student

( not a college student )

[misty furnace]

sell dru-- I mean candy to kids

[empty hinge]

good idea

[latent breach]

You may lose your potential customers if you charge for the candy

[empty hinge]

well

i will get

new customers

[latent breach]

Hey, that business idea doesn't need you to be in college...now look at our PM for example

[empty hinge]

💀 can i sell it to school students

💀 not gonna lie i see some shady things in my school

[latent breach]

Idk why I am eager to learn what happened there

[empty hinge]

btw to think of taking a drop next year pc 24 hours on bw sharing goes brrr

[empty hinge]

ammunation dealing

💀 in hindi katto ki supply

[latent breach]

I didn't understand either

[latent breach]

Any other words for that?

[empty hinge]

🧐 the area you belong from in india

[latent breach]

I'm not native hindi speaker

[empty hinge]

lemme rephrase it then

[latent breach]

Yeah

[empty hinge]

it's like a revolver but locally made very dangerous to operate
sometimes blasts in the hands of user only

sgs was going good na

[latent breach]

Touching $0.006...don't think it will last long

[empty hinge]

💀 one day i'll have my chart like that italian guy with 2$ per day by bW

[latent breach]

Sweet dreams

[empty hinge]

ahh

well from my position i can only dream bigger and bigger

[prime saddle]

Elder chef means you been very active in the server, it lasts until account leaves server or account gets banned/kicked from server

[civic fern]

Well, it does return back if you re-join the server

[prime saddle]

Eh, still, you don't want to waste your time being very active just for elder chef if you know you will be banned, my strategy to being very active is to stop talking and wait the next day if things starts to get feisty and you don't want any punishment...

And start being very active again after that

Lmao

(yes this happens alot here so sometimes you'll see me waiting for next day to continue conversation normally...)

[lavish glen]

why do you assume you will be banned? are you planning to do something that would cause it to happen? we could save you the trouble and get it done already 🤷

you get punishments for an action you did, going silent does nothing apart maybe stopping you from saying something seriously stupid

just watch what you say

this is a public space

[latent breach]

Update: sgs died because my laptop battery discharged (I left my laptop)

[empty hinge]

💀 soo

you have no sgs rn?

used to it now it connects me to a shitty italian server which gives me <5mbps upload speed have to restart the salad bowl twice or thrice to get the wanted or to get the minimum speed on itlay server which probably decreases my reliablity and i get no sgs

[empty hinge]

can you get bw on two devices connected with the same wifi??

[misty furnace]

which country?

[empty hinge]

india

just asking like is it possible

[gleaming shell]

I miss my sgs (I don't)

[misty furnace]

yeah it's possible. I was asking because--depending on the country--you may not be able to run more than 1

[empty hinge]

💀 i do

[empty hinge]

so can I in india?

[misty furnace]

there are only so many gateways in each country

[misty furnace]

yea

[lavish glen]

i also miss when librespeed died

[gleaming shell]

Us bandwidth has gotten so bad that I don't even miss it anymore

[lavish glen]

i was getting free money

[gleaming shell]

I can earn off other apps

[empty hinge]

🫡 thanks for answering

[empty hinge]

😔

[lavish glen]

if honeygain pays more then it must be insanely bad

[misty furnace]

3 gateways in india, so 3 devices per ip

[empty hinge]

💀 lets go

[gleaming shell]

Same

But then the day it came back alive was the worst day ever

[lavish glen]

it was the same day

emotional day

[empty hinge]

are we on the same page

things has not been smooth since librespeed came back

[lavish glen]

not really no

[misty furnace]

it's horrendous... giving me 1/5 download speed and 1/14 upload speed

[empty hinge]

💀 even you're suffering from it

it'll be good if everyone collectively reports it so tht they buy an ookla licence

[lavish glen]

i wish i had 8gbps internet already so i could test how fast europe librespeed servers can go

[misty furnace]

yeah no, librespeed is definitely the reason I don't have sgs

[lavish glen]

spam support about it

[empty hinge]

💀 they gonna ban me if i spammed

[lavish glen]

spam in a legal manner

[misty furnace]

I'll go ask eva to sponsor an ookla license.

[empty hinge]

💀

[misty furnace]

how expensive is it anyways?

[empty hinge]

let me cehck

[lavish glen]

you tell them about it and you keep asking them if its getting resolved every other day

[empty hinge]

💀 5k$??

[lavish glen]

until they lose sanity

[lavish glen]

salad can afford it

[empty hinge]

💀 they'll be like okay bud we're done now no sgs for you

i am already suffering T_T

[lavish glen]

nah they wont

[empty hinge]

let see

[lavish glen]

complain harder

[misty furnace]

one-time or monthly?

[empty hinge]

per annum

[lavish glen]

yearly

[misty furnace]

not bad

that's 2-3 days of revenue based on my rough maths

[empty hinge]

💀 but the thing is

will they consider it as an investment

[misty furnace]

"librespeed is 'good enough'

[empty hinge]

yes 'good enough'

is there some priority system in bw or something?

[latent breach]

I do have sgs paying me static pay

[empty hinge]

writing a sui** letter

[latent breach]

Have it checked with chatGPT to find grammatical mistakes... Else your English teacher will be busy finding grammatical mistakes at your funeral.

[empty hinge]

💀 he doesn't even know that i exist

tf everyone is getting sgs my friend who restarts salad bowl for fun gets sgs
you got it after powercut

is something wrong with me?

😔

[latent breach]

Put a patakha under is chair on a bright sunny day... That's how he will get to know you

[empty hinge]

btw today i got a gpu container

on a fricking 1650

[latent breach]

Is 1050 even eligible?

[empty hinge]

i dont know about that

even i wanna know how i got a container

XD

[latent breach]

How much RAM?

[empty hinge]

12 GB

consumed

by it

[latent breach]

Your system memory?

[empty hinge]

32 GIG

nh wait 16 GIG

[lavish glen]

nuh uh

none of that in saladchefs

[latent breach]

Oh, that's why..I have 12gb & 3050..I think I need to upgrade it to 16

[empty hinge]

🫡 okay friend

[empty hinge]

i guess ya

you have a laptop right

[latent breach]

I have a desktop too

[empty hinge]

rich pupils

[latent breach]

My laptop has 16 GB system memory+INTEL UHD graphics (how 🆒)🥲

[empty hinge]

💀

[lavish glen]

intel uhd

crazy

[empty hinge]

but you've got 3050

so

does it matter

[latent breach]

That too 11th Gen

[latent breach]

Nope

I haven't got any container with my 3050

[empty hinge]

💀 that's pretty good na

you can play CS on it

💀 hein

[latent breach]

I bought it to run AI image generator, generated 100+ image and then it is just there collecting dust

[empty hinge]

💀 context

unable to understan

[latent breach]

You know about stable diffusion?

[empty hinge]

nh

[latent breach]

Stable diffusion is actually a program with which you can generate any type of image you want by using artificial intelligence....
Running stable diffusion on your local computer requires good graphics cards....
Previously I had a GT 710

So in order to run stable diffusion I bought the 3050.

[empty hinge]

🧐

oo

so

it works now?

710 se 3050

[latent breach]

Stable diffusion: I don't use it too often now.

Graphics card: yes it works

Actually I am not very active on my desktop computer compared to my laptop

[latent breach]

Yup! Bought it with scholarship money

[empty hinge]

🧐 got it

[empty hinge]

u good in studies also

💀

[latent breach]

😅

[empty hinge]

that''s a good feat

💀 bro any other tips for the sgs

should i go and abuse the sh*t out of salad bowl service until it turns on sgs

[misty furnace]

patience

wait for 3 months like me (and still not have sgs)

[empty hinge]

💀 bro you know

my neighbour

literally restarted salad bowl for fun and got sgs within 30 minutes

whats this biasss

[gleaming shell]

It's rng

I've gotten SGS with a horrible speedtest and 300+ms ping instantly

And now salad kills off my SGS for absolutely no reason again, annoying as hell, and won't come back

[empty hinge]

🧐 run n gun?

[gleaming shell]

random number generated (luck based)

[gleaming shell]

Or that

[empty hinge]

🫡 thanks for information

my game fed brain

[misty furnace]

rng is a popular term in gaming

whenever you deal with rare drops, you call it rng

you pray to RNGesus if you want a specific drop

[empty hinge]

💀 but usually its called run n gun

[lavish glen]

random number generation

[empty hinge]

i'mma go and pray to him now

[lavish glen]

artificial rng can be calculated

if you have the seed

[gleaming shell]

I'm using honeygain, pawns, and earnapp rn since my IP is already done for anyways, will continue to use it until I hopefully get a new IP and get SGS with that

[empty hinge]

💀 what's this ip and sgs relation

am i fucked cuz i have static ip

[misty furnace]

imma try to upgrade my internet to 2gig so I have access to IP changes

[lavish glen]

seed is typically obtained using a unix timestamp

[misty furnace]

I make my seed with the timestamp, cpu temp, and gpu fan speed

(real)

[lavish glen]

thats so real

[empty hinge]

💀

[lavish glen]

thats actually better

but why though

why do u need such a secure seed

wyd

u not running cloudflare

[misty furnace]

cloudflare uses lava lamps to set their seed

[lavish glen]

i know

its good

you can even go visit the lava lamps

[empty hinge]

💀 ya their lava lamp walll

[lavish glen]

you can become part of the encryption

[empty hinge]

yeah by touching them

[lavish glen]

no just stand in front of them

[empty hinge]

🧐 i heard they react to touch

[lavish glen]

maybe

[empty hinge]

💀 bro i need ur tips

[lavish glen]

itsa me linus

o9‘¾

my bottle fell on my keyboard

[empty hinge]

does restarting salad bowl actually eff you up?

[lavish glen]

probably yes

[empty hinge]

f**k

[lavish glen]

it was empty

[empty hinge]

🫡 not gonna restart it them

[empty hinge]

[misty furnace]

I restart it when the speedtest is awful. or if a container breaks

hasn't affected my earning

[gleaming shell]

(always)

[empty hinge]

💀 ya i do it for the same purpose

[gleaming shell]

ill always get horrible speedtests now

atlanta servers are like the only "best" one i can use, and that one sucks

otherwise 90 percent of the time its ohio servers

[misty furnace]

I fr need to just host my own librespeed server without proxy. it would be faster

[empty hinge]

upload a tutorial or tht

[empty hinge]

librespeed always gives me the italian servers which are no good

[misty furnace]

You don't need a tutorial. everything you need is on the librespeed github

[empty hinge]

🫡 thanks for tht info

[civic fern]

Like that's ever gonna happen

[gleaming shell]

probs will never happen :(

were gonna be stuck with the bullsh librespeed puts out for a while

like how is getting 1/10 of my max speeds and god awful ping tested on a barely functional server states away from me considered "no bullshit"

like what

like if its going to literally say "no bullshit" right on top of the page, atleast make it "no bullshit"

[empty hinge]

the test i do on their site and the test their app conducts in salad doesnt match in my case

'no bullshit'

[gleaming shell]

the cli sucks

[winter wave]

Note: The only program developed by Salad is the official Salad app (http://www.salad.com/download)
We aren't able to provide support for any others, and we can't guarantee that they're safe to use.

[gleaming shell]

(as well as the app and the android app)

they all suck too

[empty hinge]

and then i have to restart the salad bowl for another one

and no sgs

[gleaming shell]

i just gave up, it just keeps giving me the stupid ohio servers that cant even get 1/5 to 1/10 of my speeds

[empty hinge]

no containers

[empty hinge]

💀 demn that's low

f''in low

[gleaming shell]

honestly with salad would just spend some extra money on a ookla liscence, it may benefit

but ive heard salad is losing money so were gonna have to deal with librespeed for a long whie

[empty hinge]

salad is losing money ?

💀 and they'rre still payin us

[gleaming shell]

yet the UK still has static pay

[gleaming shell]

Or well, if not, they aren't making much profit from what I've heard

[tardy swan]

if they don't they're gonna lose more GPUs

[gleaming shell]

Some of my speedtest with these dumb Ohio servers are so bad that I don't think I'm even eligible for bandwidth sharing

And I'm stuck with this crap

[empty hinge]

💀 ya my italian server giving 2mbps upload speed

like tf am I supposed to do obviously a re-test and that's fckin me up

[gleaming shell]

LIBRESPEED stupid

bruh Gboard randomly capitalizing word again

[empty hinge]

but if they're in loss how they gonna sustain the gpu's they're running in long term

[empty hinge]

XD

[gleaming shell]

Ookla is way better than the crap librespeed gives out, librespeeds CLI sucks too.
Ooklas log files are just 2 kilobytes compared to librespeeds 44kb log files
Ookla uses actual nearby servers, some servers being ones that are from ISPs (my ISP has a speedtesting server on ookla, one city away), librespeed only uses nonfunctional sponsored crap
Also ookla uses way less data then librespeed, it only downloads and uploads for a few seconds, only reason why librespeeds would do that is when the upload test unalives itself halfway and you end up getting a horrible speedtest

[winter wave]

Note: The only program developed by Salad is the official Salad app (http://www.salad.com/download)
We aren't able to provide support for any others, and we can't guarantee that they're safe to use.

[gleaming shell]

Sucks that I have to open up a ndm log every time I restart my laptop just to make sure librespeed doesn't give me the most BS of the BS it can provide

Just less convinient

[empty hinge]

and then you see the log files and you can tell the result just by looking at their 'no bullshit' server selection

[gleaming shell]

Free and Open Source Speed Test. No Flash, No Java, No Websocket, Only Bullshit.

[empty hinge]

XD the bitter truth

what can we do as a user

launch a "user disobidience movement"

[gleaming shell]

raid them librecrap servers

[empty hinge]

if there'll be no servers how they gonna test

eventually

we will win

[gleaming shell]

Make librespeed ultimately die for eternity

[empty hinge]

💀 why not crash it again

salad HQ reading our chats right now going crazy

[gleaming shell]

No jobs moment

[empty hinge]

like not even the gateway files

[gleaming shell]

"salad is only good when it works"

[empty hinge]

💀 i'm seriously considering a re install

[gleaming shell]

I never reinstall salad

It does absolutely nothing for me, if not make it worse lol

[empty hinge]

but that'll change nothing

[empty hinge]

actually

[gleaming shell]

Worst part about having no job for a prolonged time is not knowing if it's an issue on your side or salads side

[empty hinge]

it's an issue on their side i'm pretty sure

btw you were talking about something ip and sgs relation

does an ip get black listed or something for restarting the salad bowl?

[gleaming shell]

It shouldnt

[empty hinge]

cuz of librespeed

🫡 thanks for your time

I'mma go and perform some rituals to get sgs

[gleaming shell]

Damn I've been complaining about librecrap (it deserves it) for the past few days (it deserves it)

Anyways I'm done talking about librespeeds, I reached my librespeeds complaining limit for today (still, librespeeds deserves it)

Thanks Gboard for adding an s on to my librespeed

[lavish glen]

librespeed

peak librespeed hater

no one hates librespeed like you do

[gleaming shell]

And I'm proud of it

[lavish glen]

proud librespeed hater

[prime saddle]

bro i just dont want to be banned so thats why i go silent... i just want to use this server for talking about devices when no other server talks about specs and earning with pcs...

i like talking like as if it were to be me in dms...

[lavish glen]

yeah dont

[prime saddle]

bruh

[gleaming shell]

i cant contain it anymore

LIBRESPEED SUCKS

[latent breach]

The irony

[jovial fiber]

to be banned in this server you need to try to be banned

[lavish glen]

crazy

[jovial fiber]

ik surprising right?

[lavish glen]

i didnt expect it

[empty hinge]

does dns affect the speed test or sgs i switched to cloudflare's (1.1.1.1) as primary from the google one and atleast in speed test i got good servers

hopefully sgs works

[misty furnace]

the dns shouldn't have much effect as long as it's not adding a ton to your latency

I also use 1.1.1.1/1.0.0.1 for my dns, but it works just the same as the ATT dns servers that are default on my router

[empty hinge]

I had hope.........

thanks or the answer

[lavish glen]

s

[empty hinge]

no sgs til now

[misty furnace]

same lol. last time was mid august for me

[empty hinge]

💀 USA rahhhhh

bro but the region difference somethings wrong

[gleaming shell]

No SGS since like 3 days ago

Thanks salad

And it wasn't even my choice to kill sgs, salad killed it for me

[misty furnace]

your router killed it fr

[empty hinge]

😔

bruh librecrap and no sgs together is a deadly combo

[gleaming shell]

Yeah around the time my SGS got killed for no reason librespeed came to complete crap again

I should abuse Ohio servers again

[empty hinge]

😔 lets have a race whoever gets sgs first wins

i'll lose

[gleaming shell]

I don't really care about losing SGS anymore, us bandwidth is complete horrible and I'm easily earning more from other apps (aside from honeygain not being worth bc of IP ruining) and don't have to worry about if something is going to screw over for no reaosn

Salad is the only app I have to babysit so often

[empty hinge]

💀 the thing is other apps dont give good money in my region
sgs was the only hope and vanishedddd

[gleaming shell]

sgs used to be pretty good in the us, then ever since like february or march 2024 its just gone so far downhill that other apps earn more

[misty furnace]

I'll lose

I have gig/gig with 2ms ping and it's been nearly 3 months

[empty hinge]

I guess the number of people sharing increased and the actual demand decreased

[empty hinge]

3 months demnn

i hope it isnt that bad in india

[gleaming shell]

us bandwidth just dosent hit anymore

100+gb of data usage barely scraping like 30 cents per day, and overall no demand

[empty hinge]

what the flick

it gave me lik 3$ for 100 GB's

[gleaming shell]

yeah pay per gigabyte is horrible

[empty hinge]

💀

almost 0 or no proffit

💀 wait did just said the same thing twice

[latent breach]

It gives me 50 cents per 100 GB (1 cent per 2 GB), why are you getting paid that much? Static pay?

[empty hinge]

💀 bro tf idk

but my bw used is only 150 gb and i've made 3 dollars on it
🫡 and just 1 container cuz 1650 getting container is as rare as me getting girlfriend

[empty hinge]

🫠 bruhh my sgs still aint running

like i've tried everything restarting salad bowl reinstalling salad leaving pc idle

[latent breach]

My laptop was shut all day...just turned it on 10 minutes ago

[empty hinge]

🧐 you've sgs?

[latent breach]

So, haven't got sgs

[gleaming shell]

Yeah 1650ti suck

[empty hinge]

lets race I'll lose

[empty hinge]

well i have it for gaming and as long as i can play cs on it it's fine

[latent breach]

I didn't even start Salad yet...(won't start today)

[empty hinge]

💀 ohh but trust me still i'll lose

salad is done with me

[latent breach]

I will just turn off my router after an hour or so

[empty hinge]

last speed test at 6 pm and no sgs

[empty hinge]

🧐 you'll turn it on and fire up your laptop tommorow?

[latent breach]

Yup

[empty hinge]

that's what i meant still i;ll lose and be without sgs

[gleaming shell]

Do you also get the stupid container that lasts like less than 5 minutes?

[latent breach]

My last speedtest result (80 mbps up/down)

[gleaming shell]

Best librespeed experience

[empty hinge]

nh lasted for like an hour

had couple of those and just to confirm it i checked and they were utilisng all of my gpu

but i do get cpu container lasting 5-10 minutes

[empty hinge]

server?

roma itlay??

[latent breach]

Italy

[empty hinge]

'no bullshit

[empty hinge]

knew it cuz that's the only server that gives shitty upload speed

[latent breach]

libreshit is bullshit

[empty hinge]

rest amsterdam and germanny reduces the download speed a lil but gives good results

but librecrap chooses itlay so that i;ve to restart a few times and reduce my chances

[empty hinge]

[latent breach]

Amsterdam gives my good ul and dl speed

[empty hinge]

🕵️ indian certified

bro what's like the max time i should wait

before restarting the service or my laptop

[latent breach]

Wait for 20-30 minutes after starting chopping on Salad...

sgs should get downloaded within that time (from my experience)

[empty hinge]

3 hours

no sgs

the fact that i've no sgs and no gateways installed yet in my files

[latent breach]

You running a desktop?

[empty hinge]

nh

laptop

[latent breach]

Better

Desktop would have used more power

[empty hinge]

ya

but is 3 hours common?

[latent breach]

Nope

not at all

[empty hinge]

or should i go and hit it with a restart

[latent breach]

Restart and test your luck

[empty hinge]

🤣 according to me cuz of restarting has reduced my reliability so much

[latent breach]

Also, do you keep your router on whole night?

[empty hinge]

and salad is like this machine goes off a lot

[empty hinge]

ya always on

as i said static ip adress so doesnt matter that much

[empty hinge]

you sure all this trust score and reliability thing is bullshit ??

[latent breach]

static ip has anything to do with keeping router on?
[didn't understand what you meant]

[latent breach]

I don't think there is anything like the score that will be reduced upon restarting.

[empty hinge]

i thought you were going to say keep it off for a while and then turn it on

sometimes it changes your ip in case of dynamic ip

[latent breach]

But I do think Salad prioritize the folks that keeps their pc on 24x7

[empty hinge]

🫠 🫡

then no restart

lets give it a shot

for longer run

[latent breach]

Yours is like me, I too have a static ip

[latent breach]

Oh don't worry, just restart

[empty hinge]

💀

kay G

but very low download speed this time 30

[gleaming shell]

going down rapidly

[empty hinge]

bro i got a warning from automoderator and i didnt even know what i said that triggered it

[gleaming shell]

was it from yagpdb

[empty hinge]

ya

[gleaming shell]

librespeeding so hard

[empty hinge]

tested from the same connection on the same librecrap server

🤣 their website data and app data didnt even correlate

[misty furnace]

then it doesn't matter. dyno is the moderation bot here

yagpdb is just for keeping the chat clean

[empty hinge]

bro got me worried for a lil bit

💀 does anyone have the zip file for the sgs client imma install it myself if salad is not gonna do it

[empty hinge]

after restarting several times these are the best results i can get

bro is it like something in my pc is stopping it from downloading sgs?

[upbeat shuttle]

check le pins

^

[empty hinge]

okay

but how can i check i dont really know how to read logs any keywords

i didnt find something that was like failing to download and al

[upbeat shuttle]

then it likely wasn't failing to download it :)

[empty hinge]

💀 haha means i'm not getting the jobs

anyways thanks for your help

[empty hinge]

🫠 salad has some personal problems wwith my ip or wot

[latent breach]

cursedatom's too

[gleaming shell]

same with me too

[empty hinge]

💀 they're in USA and i'm india

[empty hinge]

wait you only took his name yours working??

atleast

have that shit running

[latent breach]

.

[empty hinge]

knows as

SGS

Told ya

I'll lose

no gateway or sgs folders yet to be seen XD

[latent breach]

God that's henna....

I will try running Salad on my desktop today to see whether I can get athelas on desktop

[empty hinge]

bro you know

gateways can change too

[latent breach]

Your school declared holidays?

[empty hinge]

i saw my friend
started on henna
got athelas afterwards

[latent breach]

2 different devices, so I may get 2 different gatways

[empty hinge]

hehe yes

[empty hinge]

big brain

but whytf no sgs

test results i conducted at

10:40

[latent breach]

Reinstall Salad, working for me everytime

[empty hinge]

🫡 bro i've done everything trust me every fricking thing

[latent breach]

my last speedtest results

[empty hinge]

salad got some personal beef with me

[empty hinge]

server differs hh

librecrash continuously gives me roma itlay

[latent breach]

It's Frankfurt, Germany this time for me

[empty hinge]

thinking of reinstalling once again now you've mentioned it

[latent breach]

Go ahead

[empty hinge]

💀 but a mod told me that it does affect my chances even tho its rng

what am i supposed to do now

[latent breach]

Khao, piyo aur aish karo...
Diwali manao, choro sgs

[empty hinge]

lets reinstalll

bro should i delete the exe file of sgs and download it fresh from google again?

[empty hinge]

yeah today house cleaning day so pc will be idle so i want to earn something like something

[latent breach]

tried using honeygain?
(its kind of similar, but people here say its worse than Salad)

[empty hinge]

It does

[latent breach]

but at least you'll earn something from honeygain

[empty hinge]

its like it'll give you 0.3$ per day in starting and then out of the blue the demand dies

and its not like
the traffic is dead or somethin
create a new id and you earn that much again

[empty hinge]

its worse than static pay

[latent breach]

You can earn from mobile too...

[empty hinge]

no two device from same wifi can use

and honeygain on mobile internet is like approx 0

have a good day
with sgs

i'm either sorting this shit or throwin my lappy into burning crackers

[latent breach]

The fireworks will be interesting to witness

[empty hinge]

buddy

jsut say

khao piyo ash karo mitro

and move on

[empty hinge]

1h 30 min after reinstall no sgs
