[rough bloom]

bad

[olive sable]

the original is still for sale

i think they stale make it

stale?

[fast pagoda]

oh they do

[olive sable]

still

[fast pagoda]

idk why though

[olive sable]

https://www.noctua.at/en/products/nh-d15/buy

all of these are still up

[fast pagoda]

yeah it's still made

there'd just be 0 reason to buy a regular one when the g2 exists

[rough bloom]

there is

[olive sable]

its cheaper

[rough bloom]

the G2 is 3x as expensive

[fast pagoda]

not new

barely

the difference new is like 20 bucks

on amazon rn

[olive sable]

the original is 100 euro, the g2 is 150

[rough bloom]

~40€ difference for me

[fast pagoda]

that's like free

for a 10 year purchase

[olive sable]

thats a 50% difference

[rough bloom]

+40% = basically free

[fast pagoda]

50% of 0 is 0

[opaque wharf]

I am here sitting and waiting directly in front of a fan that is barely hanging onto its frame. Wish me luck

[olive sable]

its 150 euro. thats half a switch

[fast pagoda]

i'd just wait for a sale on a g2 if it were me

or a used g2

[olive sable]

you pay 50% more for a differnce of 1.5C

ye nah

the original is more than good enough

[fast pagoda]

or you could pay way less for a difference of 1.5c

peerless assassin 120 is 30 dollars

[rough bloom]

I think you'll be waiting for quite a while
it's basically the RTX 5090 of air coolers

[fast pagoda]

the noctua is a specifically overpriced option int he world of air coolers anyways

[rough bloom]

there's zero point in buying it unless you want "the best", regardless of value

the G2 is just even more extreme than usual

[fast pagoda]

it's not even that much better in any stat than some others

[opaque wharf]

Ahh, the sound of comfort

[fast pagoda]

original d15 is super not worth at $130

[rough bloom]

but it is better

[olive sable]

ive seen "no smoking area" before

but smoking area is a new one

[opaque wharf]

Because by default it is not a smoking area

[olive sable]

that would never fly in france or belgium

[fast pagoda]

in japan they have a ton of smoking booths lol and it's like a toilet stall installed outside where 600 smokers cram together and hotbox

i kek'd walking past them

a giant plume of smoke

billlowing out

[rough bloom]

I've seen them once or twice
it's basically giving the smokers an easy option to respect the no smoking area

[rough bloom]

yeah that

I don't think they're very successful

which is probably why they're rare

[fast pagoda]

there's one right out near the hachiko statue

[opaque wharf]

Hmmm, since this is the tech channel, what can we do to mitigate those smoke

[olive sable]

the humble minecraft campfire when i use it as a particle generator for my smoking french villigars

[fast pagoda]

there are air cleaners for smoking rooms

including in those smoking areas

[rough bloom]

Noctua NH-D15 G2

[fast pagoda]

they stand near the thing and it's "supposed" to suckolate all the smoke in

[olive sable]

"suckolate"

[fast pagoda]

and yes that's actually the design purpose of the d15 g2

vice grip garage trademarked term my bad

[olive sable]

cooling the cpu is a by-effect

the main job is to allow for smoking indoors at your desk

[fast pagoda]

they saw too many of those posts of people cleaning smokers pcs

and said

no more

[opaque wharf]

Those are horror image

[fast pagoda]

they really are

[olive sable]

[fast pagoda]

and when they have like bugs and shit that get stuck in teh tar

[olive sable]

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

absolutle no bugs

if i see a single bug go inside my pc, i instantly start rendering

gotta cook the fucker

[fast pagoda]

lmfao

laughed irl

that makes me think

this blower cooler on this gpu

goes insane in the membrane at 330watt

i bet that thing would suck a bug in like a jet engine

[olive sable]

[fast pagoda]

mfw gpu bird strike

takes out my cooler

kek thermalright even went ahed and started slapping a screen on a slightly more expensive variant of the peerless assassin 120

[tender river]

cameras everywhere connected to an AI surveillance system that detects smokers and, pointing a turret, politely asks them to stop

[fast pagoda]

oh good good and we could have those cameras be privately owned and contracted out

feed them directly to palantir

[opaque wharf]

"Neuro, I have a gun. What is the next step?"

"I am feeling a bit generous today"

[olive sable]

slanted ram slots look so cursed

thanks HP

i hate it

[fast pagoda]

you could do funky things when the coolers looked like that

[olive sable]

its DDR3

lmao

it has become relevant again

these workstations only shipped with a single cpu eventho they have 2 slots

[fast pagoda]

lil bonus for later

[olive sable]

⁨```

[olive sable]

it does have one

[fast pagoda]

ooh wait yeah

[olive sable]

some nvidia quadro fucker

[fast pagoda]

i see it

i didnt see it because it's single slot

had to open the image kek

[olive sable]

⁨includes two Intel Xeon E5450 processors⁩
i guess the one i sent is a base config

⁨NVIDIA Quadro FX370⁩

[fast pagoda]

oh fuck that's like what 2008

[olive sable]

ye

high end for 2007

[opaque wharf]

It's a shame that we have normalized the beeg gpu size

[olive sable]

im jsut getting distracted looking through aliexpres

i need to spend slightly more for free shipping

[fast pagoda]

back when that workstation was around is when i really wanted a Core 2 Quad Q6600

until i eventually built my pc and ended up with an i5-750

which was a bit newer

[olive sable]

i was but a fetus back then

[fast pagoda]

kek

those xeons were dual cpu and at the time there was a core2quad that worked with that socket and could be dual cpu

like one(1) random top end actually i think it was core2extreme branded

but it was consumer

2 cpu there then you could get a 4870x2

for a dual gpu

[olive sable]

[fast pagoda]

lmfao

back when gpus had random ass characters on them

[olive sable]

for me that would be a reason not to buy something lmao

unless its a series i actually care about, and its not done distastefully

[fast pagoda]

nah usually they were like

random renders

of some artist that worked there's oc or something

[olive sable]

[fast pagoda]

or were from a demo of some kind

[olive sable]

so just some random girl

[fast pagoda]

g r a p h i c s

[olive sable]

where the boys at?

[fast pagoda]

most eligible male

[olive sable]

um

[fast pagoda]

on the graphics card

[olive sable]

for all we know that orc is also a girl

[fast pagoda]

perhaps a sick dragon

[olive sable]

thats the dragon from shrek

[olive sable]

ok ye idk what the hell that is

[fast pagoda]

wololo

alternatively, off brand kaelthas

[olive sable]

[olive sable]

[fast pagoda]

me when i get a geforce 256 for christmas

[olive sable]

32MB

crazy

[fast pagoda]

palit was all in on this frog guy at one point

[olive sable]

a single 4K framebuffer uses 34MB
and thats without hdr at only 8 bit per channel

crazy how a sinlge framebuffer already fills the vram

[fast pagoda]

the geforce 2 mx which is the first card i remember the name of that i ever used

is the successor to that 256

[opaque wharf]

That's some seriously horror shit

[fast pagoda]

and my monitor at the time was like

[opaque wharf]

Not as horror as this tho

[olive sable]

i should apply to be a mod

just to delete that

and ban that image

[fast pagoda]

i had a monitor that was 1024 × 768 at the time

before that it was 800x600

[olive sable]

old

[fast pagoda]

in kindergarten thru 2nd grade we had old pcs with windows 3.1 on them in classroom and i remember being sure that 3.1 was better than ME because the paint program looked cooler

although now ME is cleaRLY the best windows ever made solely because it had this intro video winme.wmv

i watched it hundreds of times lmao

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ibs9rpqAL8

me in the thumbnail

tfw this is in my recommended on this

[true hemlock]

bring back this design

[fast pagoda]

show those to elvy

[true hemlock]

i really liked the old gpu box designs

modern ones seem really boring

[fast pagoda]

i wish yeston sold in the western market

[olive sable]

i think paint would go off from the heat cycles

idk

i think printed on plastic is the way to go

but more expensive

[fast pagoda]

yeston still in it

[fickle rain]

Is it scented too

[olive sable]

[fast pagoda]

small graphics card = small mascot bear thing

[fast pagoda]

like the finest cobalt

[olive sable]

i was lookign at their website but didnt see many in their product page

but they all show the fan side, and the anime is ont he back

[fast pagoda]

yeah cuz the character is facing up so you can see it w/ gpu installed in most case

alien crab keyboard

lol

[olive sable]

[stray dragon]

better be Co-60

[fickle rain]

Beautiful, just what I was looking for in a GPU

[opaque sigil]

Oh hey it's one of their scented GPUs

[olive sable]

need my pc to smell like sand

[stray dragon]

yum sand

[fast pagoda]

[true hemlock]

[olive sable]

[opaque wharf]

If they are printed on the PCB, then they would use the same technology as the silkscreen (which is to say, they would burn before thermal cycle would be an issue)

[real sierra]

I love you programmers

I hope you're all doing well

[olive sable]

[real sierra]

wait maybe that was coming on too strongly

[olive sable]

i love you too shiro

[real sierra]

[olive sable]

[real sierra]

didn't sleep enough and my affection filter not working again

[olive sable]

shiro out here asking us out like its episode 12 of the anime

so how is fumoquest going?

[olive sable]

apparently, the motor controller can output 5V too if im only using the 12V input

thats a max of 0.5A tho

[ember hound]

fabulous

[olive sable]

i could use it to power the encoder tho

[real sierra]

I slept too much lately and haven't had time to work on it

I'm stuck with some multiplayer bugs that are hard to fix because the server build and launch time is so long

[olive sable]

[real sierra]

can't rapid test anymore now that hosting is done by a dedicated server and not a client

[olive sable]

just decrease the launch time

[real sierra]

it's not even launch time

it's just

uploading the file to the server

the vps is over in the UK somewhere I think

so my poor fumoquest server (already almost 100MB wtf unity) has to cross the ocean every time

[olive sable]

why you even using a server int he uk if you're still testing

jsut host it on a laptop for testing

[real sierra]

because the dedicated server is made for linux

I don't have a laptop

[olive sable]

you must have a laptop somewhere

[real sierra]

I don't

[olive sable]

if not you can find them at landfills

[real sierra]

now you're solving the wrong problem

[olive sable]

like seriously, there's not an old work laptop or soemthing going around in your family?

[real sierra]

I don't live anywhere near my family

but also no

[olive sable]

i knew you lived in canada but i didnt realize the ecology there was this bad

[opaque wharf]

Hmmm, VM is a no go?

[nocturne olive]

WSL on localhost or a VM

[real sierra]

idk about the networking

I'm also concerned that some bugs might only present with sufficient latency present

[nocturne olive]

It's networking the same as networking to an IP address is

You should fix the non-latency-dependent bugs first and only after the ones that depend on latency, no point in fixing the bugs that don't care about latency on a setup for latency related bugs

[fast pagoda]

hi shiro

[olive sable]

the usb-c board thingy i bought needs to be soldered to make it do more thn 5v

i should have bought one with switches

[real sierra]

funyun

[opaque wharf]

You don't have soldering iron?

[olive sable]

i do somewhere

[opaque wharf]

Caj you inject latency on a VM?

[olive sable]

i think

i just lack the skills to solder

[opaque wharf]

Soldering is easy. The hard part is doing it cleanly and having a neat end result

In other words, as long as it doesn't short, it's good enough

[sick owl]

https://notepad-plus-plus.org/news/hijacked-incident-info-update/

[olive sable]

the solder tin stuff is at a different house

so ill do it later

for now ill just bridge the contacts with tape

[fast pagoda]

i have placed you on my shelf
high quality and effort photo

[real sierra]

[fast pagoda]

watch out for vedal creepin

[olive sable]

is the anime girl supposed to be shiro

[opaque wharf]

You need a piece of conductor too because tape is usually not conductive enough to make an electrical connection

[olive sable]

ye i know lol

[fast pagoda]

it's shiro but in knockoff figure form

[rough bloom]

there's a good chance that the contact from this will be very, very bad
hopefully it works consistently enough

[olive sable]

welp, it seems to work

the thing that keeps crashing my waybar seems to be the internet usage readouts

unrelated i have to restart my pc every now and then cuz my dns stops working

[opaque sigil]

does restarting the dns resolver not work?

[olive sable]

i tried ⁨sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager⁩

and that doesnt work

[glass jetty]

laptop cpus, idk do they (amd) actually have them or not, but all available for me laptops was with intel
/
/

i spend 6 hours trying start civ6 with proton

seems like it have issues with running anything dxN

just freeze game (not system freeze) and spinning cpu on 1-2% load

absolute software issue (for my hardware i guess)
-# lona rpg runs fine tho

[opaque sigil]

does ⁨resolvectl⁩ give you anything other than an error message

[olive sable]

cant test it rn since its working currently

[rough bloom]

NetworkManager

do you have any special network config set or just the default?

[olive sable]

but in working state i get:
⁨```
resolvectl
Failed to get global data: Unit dbus-org.freedesktop.resolve1.service not found.

[opaque sigil]

what does networkmanager use by default again

[glass jetty]

things that work by default

i have 30+ tabs open

[opaque sigil]

is it just writing into ⁨⁨/etc/resolv.conf⁩⁩ directly and using those servers

[olive sable]

⁨```
networking.hostName = "nixos";
networking.networkmanager.enable = true;
networking.nameservers = [ "1.1.1.1" "8.8.8.8" ];

the nameservers i only added after getting this issue, didnt work tho

[rough bloom]

you do have NetworkManager

[glass jetty]

seems like it fetches dhcp server first

[glass jetty]

you dont??

[rough bloom]

hell no

[olive sable]

dont you need it for internet?

[rough bloom]

never

[glass jetty]

why is it red

[rough bloom]

because it didn't send

[olive sable]

it didnt send

[rough bloom]

also no, no wifi, ethernet

[glass jetty]

there no way i will setup wifi without nmcli

[opaque sigil]

networkd?

[glass jetty]

btw, some wifis wont start if i use password in command, they connect fine if use⁨⁨⁨ --ask⁩⁩⁩

weefis sound like some one's name

[rough bloom]

try ⁨⁨networking.networkmanager.insertNameservers = [ "1.1.1.1" "8.8.8.8" ]⁩⁩
I don't think ⁨⁨networking.nameservers⁩⁩ is hooked up to NetworkManager at all

[olive sable]

[glass jetty]

what do i do with 30 opened tabs? i may need them

[olive sable]

use bookmarks

[glass jetty]

and lose everything with laptop?

or use mega corporation sync system?

[olive sable]

bookmarks are account based

if you set it up correctly at least

[glass jetty]

so you give all your bookmarks for mega corporation to make your profile

i have this
⁨~/notes ~$ lsa . code_resources .git math_resources secrets ⁩

[olive sable]

why would mozilla care i have youtube bookmarked? they will already see im going to the website

[glass jetty]

they dont spy on you by default like microslop

also i just use librewolf

[olive sable]

microsoft doesnt have acces to firefox bookmarks

i odnt think so at least

event hen

if yo use librewolf it shouldnt matter

[glass jetty]

i dont use mozila account

[rough bloom]

for Firefox at least you can host your own sync server

[glass jetty]

i just use plaint text

[olive sable]

⁨⁨```
Imo there's no good reason Firefox Sync is disabled. It's E2EE, Mozilla can't see or access your data, etc. I imagine LibreWolf just disables it to minimize connections and reliance on Mozilla. I would recommend just using it.

-reddit user Any-Virus5206

[rough bloom]

I'm sure there's extensions for both Firefox and Chromium that provide alternative methods too
(but then you have to trust those extensions instead)

[glass jetty]

and like all of this sites are just research i did during this 6 hours
i actually may just write them down in one file
there like no way i will need them tho

[olive sable]

using a file seems like a lot of unnesesary work

bookmarks have folder

its just a lot faster and easier

[fast pagoda]

namd apus have had significantly better graphics for a hot minute for the same price

intel JUST caught up with xe3 being faster than the 780m i believe

they run higher wattage than 15 tho

depending

gaming is rough on igpu even still tho, a 5050 mobile is still better than your average apu gpu, idk what cpu you got so cant really speak to the processor performance but it's generally pretty good

the 8745hs in my mini pc has surprisingly close cpu performance to my previous 5900x though which is spooky

[glass jetty]

i never seen avg low power igpu in work, so expected it to be just for fast 2d (de) and video acceleration
but it run not minimal, base minecraft in 300fps, and apparently
⁨```
glxgears_pixmap
11417 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2283.400 FPS

1/6 of gpu result

-# tho for some reasons i cant run dx gamed with proton

[fast pagoda]

which cpu did you get, i've been curious on the perf of the igpus intel has rn

[glass jetty]

pentium 7505

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/208667/intel-pentium-gold-7505-processor-4m-cache-up-to-3-50-ghz-with-ipu/specifications.html

[fast pagoda]

i see

i was comparing amd apus to intel parts in mini pcs before i got mine

and it turns out the difference is pretty stark for the lower mid tier of like $200-$500 systems

idk how much your budget was

but this is similar to when i looked up the n95/n100/n97 etc adn compared it

the pentium should be pretty significantly cheaper though i'd hope

i got sucked into a "just a bit more money for way more performance" trap

45w tdp vs 15 as well

so pentium battery life would be better if it';s a laptop

[fast pagoda]

you are making me want to listen to aliexpress trying to get me to buy a bunch of electronics

[glass jetty]

cant say much, i chose from what i had around at the time, i wanted to try laptop, with option to return
so i had only intels around
actually, i did return first laptop, it was too big for me and than i choose laptop that 3/5 of regular size, i think...
glad i decided to buy laptop in addition to pc
now i have no pc and its fine

[idle dune]

I installed Linux Mint XFCE and put the KDE Plasma DE on it

https://giphy.com/gifs/hacker-MM0Jrc8BHKx3y

[glass jetty]

[idle dune]

Its literatlly that

I tried CachyOS

I had alot of isues with driver support and wanted to jump in front of a bus

So I reinstalled Mint

and installed the KDE Plasma Desktop Environment

So I have Mint stability and someone that doesn't look like ass

[glass jetty]

just use arch

[idle dune]

I am to casual

[glass jetty]

like, what special with kde on mint specifically?

[fast pagoda]

availability is a fickle beast

[idle dune]

Looks pretty idk

It ain't special

[fast pagoda]

cachy driver issues huh

[idle dune]

its one command and restating the pc

[fast pagoda]

nvidia card?

[idle dune]

Yep, Quadro specificlly.

[fast pagoda]

oh god i dont even wanna know

[olive sable]

[idle dune]

My display was checkerboarding and I was getting kernel panics.

[fast pagoda]

i just moved to an ai pro 9700 amd and it's been so nice having amd compatibility

in arch w/ wayland

[glass jetty]

on arch i installed nvidia driver with one command
obs with one command
steam with one command (+ uncomment multilib)
and cant start proton at all // but it might be hardware incompatibility issue idk

-# just spend several days to setup system for first time, but it is different story

[opaque sigil]

weird, quadro cards should work identically to geforce cards

[fast pagoda]

wait, why are you installing nvidia driver @glass jetty

[opaque sigil]

Unless it's a super old one that's unsupported I guess

[fast pagoda]

arent you using the pentium's integrated?

or is there a GPU in there

which quadro is it waffles

[glass jetty]

i have arch on everything :haha:
(on pc with nvidia card)

[fast pagoda]

nvidia recently dropped support for some older cards

[fast pagoda]

ohhhh

i was like well there's your problme lmao

[glass jetty]

and i had to install aur for driver

[fast pagoda]

you might need vulkan stuff

enable multilib repo in pacman.conf and install ⁨sudo pacman -S mesa lib32-mesa vulkan-intel lib32-vulkan-intel⁩ and possibly ⁨sudo pacman -S lib32-gnutls lib32-libpulse wine-staging⁩

does steam launch

[glass jetty]

they are dependency for steam

[fast pagoda]

yeah they are

what happens if yo u ⁨vulkaninfo | head⁩

[glass jetty]

so, i installed them for sure, it gave choice what card i use, there was like.. 10 of them?

[fleet jungle]

gotta obfuscate that for peak

[glass jetty]

i dont have info stuff installed, what packet is it?

[opaque sigil]

vulkan-tools or sth

[fast pagoda]

part of vulkan tools

yeah

same

[opaque sigil]

[fast pagoda]

⁨sudo pacman -S gamemode lib32-gamemode mangohud lib32-mangohud goverlay protonup-qt protontricks⁩ i might install all the game mode sort things too which are for compatibility

[opaque sigil]

Also you shouldn't need mesa unless you hate yourself and want to use nouveau

[glass jetty]

-# idk for what reason, but some times internet just lag
-# i send it before you msges appears

⁨bash: head⁩: command not found⁩

[fast pagoda]

reload shell maybe

[glass jetty]

nah, i just have no head

[fast pagoda]

damn

[glass jetty]

but i have tail and less

btw, less have arg -R

and for git, for example, you can set color always on

and than just git diff | less -R

[fast pagoda]

i like -f from tail

head is ez to remember tho

i mean they all are

i just think

front of file

head

[glass jetty]

how follow relate to head?

also, i still dont understand, what is magic behind follow?

[fast pagoda]

it's just for file watching

shows changes

i guess follow on a head would only show overwrites or prepends

[glass jetty]

how it follow file descriptor? is linux just have arbitrary on-change poll event?

asked gpt, he gave some shit, so idk
-# i not even remember what shit he said

[fast pagoda]

it just checked periodically i think

i actually dont know how it checks

oh it's ⁨inotify⁩

https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/inotify.7.html

[opaque sigil]

I was going to say

[fast pagoda]

herpa derpa

[opaque sigil]

Default to that if possible and fall back to polling

[glass jetty]

funny string you gave to me

[fast pagoda]

wha

[glass jetty]

⁨something⁩

[glass jetty]

⁨\x68\x65\x61\x64⁩is ⁨head⁩
but string on copy is
⁨76 75 6C 6B 61 6E 69 6E 66 6F 20 7C 20 68 65 61 64 E2 81 A9⁩
-> ⁨vulkaninfo | head⁩⁩
for some reasons, this specific string contain extra 3 bytes
and actually any string from discord

what the heck

[fast pagoda]

i included a secret message

[glass jetty]

since when?

[fast pagoda]

it says

"be sure to drink your ovaltine"

[glass jetty]

E2 81 A9 is nothing in utf

[fast pagoda]

i get 17 characters whether i type it or copy that one from disc

and 17 bytes

[glass jetty]

maybe cuz it is web version of mine?

[fast pagoda]

i must checkk

wow that took so long to load

[glass jetty]

-# electron

[fast pagoda]

nope still 17/17

[glass jetty]

⁨⁨something⁩⁩ << here just right after ⁨before string?⁩

[fast pagoda]

there's a space there i think

[glass jetty]

⁨73 6F 6D 65 74 68 69 6E 67 E2 81 A9 20⁩

including one space

[fast pagoda]

yeah i get that if i include the space

ok i got it

that's weird

it keeps the space after even tho there isnt one

[glass jetty]

and before string also there hidden utf

it just drags over to console

so i have no head, and may have no tail xD

⁨tail⁩

⁨⁨```
bash: head⁩: command not found
bash: tail⁩: command not found

[fast pagoda]

oh

well

that's not embedded

havent used this screen recorder before and i now see it defaults to fking mkv

sp00ky hidden messages in a bottle

[azure lynx]

something⁩

so "something" + the Unicode character "POP DIRECTIONAL ISOLATE", then a space.

[obsidian mantle]

xxd

[olive sable]

[azure lynx]

xxd is "make a hexdump or do the reverse". very useful for patching things. installs with the vim package.

[quick condor]

lol

[obsidian mantle]

i have 3 camera vectors (x, y, z) which tell how camera is oriented in global space
and i need to point camera along some other vector in global space

i calculated desired mouse movements by getting multiplication of these vectors (that scalar result that isnt vector, its a cosinus or something i think?)
moving mouse in X looks fine but Y gets fucked if the desired vector is pointing behind camera (i think it tries to turn the head upside down)
do i just detect if the angle is more then 90 degrees and invert results for Y? will that work

i hate math

or i can just dont move y if its more than 90

[azure lynx]

do you mean you have a "lookat, up, and right" or similar set of 3 vectors?

[obsidian mantle]

i think yes

[azure lynx]

also a position

i think some of that is redundant, can do it with just up and lookat and position.

[obsidian mantle]

so i use lookat for X and up for Y

oh wait no

or yes

i think yes

[azure lynx]

you need 3 values for each

[obsidian mantle]

they are x y z but in skyrim z is up

3???

[azure lynx]

z is up to the world, not always to your viewpoint

[obsidian mantle]

nono its like uuh

so if camera is pointing 45* above

the z vector of camera will be 45* of z of the world

like that

i think

[azure lynx]

but you are trying to define the direction you are looking

[obsidian mantle]

its defined by those 3 vectors of camera

red ones

[azure lynx]

you you also rotate around the Y axis? coz that'll change which direction Z points? I don't know how skyrim works. only in general for 3d graphics.

[obsidian mantle]

so basically mouseX rotates around Z
and mouseY rotates around Y

i think

if X is lookat

[azure lynx]

you can never "yaw" your head? like the other direction from nodding your head and shaking your head?

[obsidian mantle]

effectively it yaws because mouseX and Y apply simultaniously

if i got the yaw word correctly

oh wait or is yaw like

ye i cant

its mouse X and Y

[azure lynx]

so you can just assume world up with your tilt for the up vector.

(if you could do a barrel roll like a plane, you'd need to keep track of the current rotation amount for local up)

[obsidian mantle]

why does my thing even work right now

if desired vector is equal to lookat

[azure lynx]

i'm not sure what it is you're trying to do (sounds like you're doing the dot product to get direction?)

[obsidian mantle]

and camera's Z is going straight up

i should get 1 for multiplication and it should try to look up?

[azure lynx]

what are you multiplying?

[obsidian mantle]

camera's Z vector and desired direction vector

and it somehow works if desired is in front

[azure lynx]

what do you mean "Z vector"? Z should be a scalar component of a vector

[obsidian mantle]

it looks like this

i think its not what i think it is

[azure lynx]

if you take the dot product of the curent look dir and the direction to the thing you care about, if it's positive you are pointing in the same direction, negative you're pointing away and zero you're point at right angles to it

[obsidian mantle]

yes i think i do that for X movement

and its perfect every time

Y just looks inverted when its pointing behind me

i guess i should just inverse it or ignore Y until its pointing forward

[azure lynx]

dot product always works

[olive sable]

unless you need to cross product

[obsidian mantle]

yeah its wjat i do

result if float

[azure lynx]

yeah, cross product is the 2nd guess

[obsidian mantle]

for cross they have cross() function

[olive sable]

for dot they have dot() no?

[obsidian mantle]

im using cross for rotating some vectors in another place

nah they just overloaded *

or how its called

[olive sable]

oh this isnt glsl?

[obsidian mantle]

this is skyrim cpp nipoint which is basically a vector

vector3

implemented as class

at least now i know what cross and dot products are

they are called differently here

i was thinking wtf is cross

[azure lynx]

with that knowledge and some matrix math you should be able to work out the rest

[obsidian mantle]

usually i just try different variants and change things according to results

idk how im going to filter "objects around you list"

if i have no access to walls

classic xray kind navigation

[azure lynx]

is there a "isvisible()" type thing?

[obsidian mantle]

oh actually yeah sometimes i think things arent rendered when behind wall

thanks to 2010s game optimisations

nice i should look into that

[azure lynx]

the hackiest way to do it would be "dot product is > 0.7071" and distance < "like 20 feet"

so that would be a 45 degree cone in front of you for whatever distance.

[obsidian mantle]

will still pierce walls especially in interior locations

[olive sable]

i fucking hate stripping wire

i keep cutting of the copper too

[fiery anchor]

Building the prototype?

[olive sable]

ye

except i odnt have the projector and the pi yet

jsut the electronics

[fiery anchor]

that was quick delivery for chinesium

[olive sable]

one of the converters is wrong spec tho

[fiery anchor]

that's slightly annoying.

they raised the rPi prices again... yours was a oPi, right?

[olive sable]

ye

those prices were raised too tho

[opaque wharf]

Invest in a good wire stripper

[olive sable]

wait a minute

i have one

[fiery anchor]

[olive sable]

its too big

its for cat ethernet sized wire

[obsidian mantle]

okay looks like this solved everything

[olive sable]

aight

wires done

total in usage, like maybe 10cm, totally wasted, 30cm

copper is everywhere

also, the solder joints broke on the usb-c decoy board

i was gonne need to solder it anyways, but now i also cant use it for testing

[midnight sigil]

<cmath> have std::abs()

[obsidian mantle]

but i dont need abs it will erase the minus

[midnight sigil]

oh it's negate mulZ when mulY is below 0

[obsidian mantle]

somehow there was abs before i forgot to change it

[midnight sigil]

[obsidian mantle]

this place of code attracts abs thoughts for some reason

[midnight sigil]

lul

[obsidian mantle]

2 sources tell me that the door is locked but its not locked
okay i gotta read crosshair caption then

[olive sable]

Just need to solder and get the correct step-down converter

also the pi and the lightcrafter

[wary mauve]

stick the screwdriver in somewhere power it all on and see what unfolds

[olive sable]

i already tried bridging it and that worked

i jsut cant use that for the final thing

now need to make it permanent

[half glade]

is this an l298n？

[olive sable]

yes

[half glade]

This motor driver is not very stable. I would recommend using the TB6612 instead.

[olive sable]

too late

[half glade]

do u want to make something？

[olive sable]

no

yes

[half glade]

Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean.My native language is not English.😫

maybe i can give u some help if u need

[olive sable]

i am trying to make something, thats why i bought it

the no was sarcasm

[half glade]

If you want to power the motor, it would be better to purchase an aircraft model battery and a voltage reduction module.

[olive sable]

battery is a nope

using usb power is the goal

[half glade]

You can use the Type-C port to charge the battery.

[olive sable]

not many batteries can supply 140W

and then id need to get a battery manager circuit thingy

[azure lynx]

batteries can supply MUCH more than 140W.

[half glade]

The current that a battery can provide is theoretically unlimited.

If the Type-C protocol is not compatible, only 5V1A of current can be provided.

[fast pagoda]

i channel zeus lightning through usb pd

[azure lynx]

with batteries if you want more watts, you can just increase the number of batteries. with USB you are limited to your max draw

[olive sable]

depends on he battery

i need it to not be as big as a car battery

[fast pagoda]

that's why i said bank of deep cycle batteries ;^0

[olive sable]

space contraints are like, at most 15cm x 10cm x 10cm

[azure lynx]

also batteries like inductive loads (like motors) better than your USB power supply will.

[olive sable]

and it needs to supply that 140W preferably for more than 5 minutes

[fast pagoda]

you could run that on a pd battery pack prob

[olive sable]

as long as it works

[azure lynx]

it might not, is what i'm saying. it might fry it.

[olive sable]

the plan is to jsut put everything ont he usb-c port like im already doing.
and then ifg need be i run a power bank on it

[olive sable]

if it fries ill buy a better one

[fast pagoda]

all of these can do a lot of watts

[olive sable]

this was only 5 bucks

[fast pagoda]

buy anything like that

[olive sable]

i dont care if it fries

[fast pagoda]

not necessarily anker but

[olive sable]

how long tho?

if i need to recharge every hour i might aswell keep it plugged in

[fast pagoda]

i mean

[half glade]

I'm unable to send you the picture. The size of the model aircraft battery is approximately 643, and it can power the Raspberry Pi for several hours.

[fast pagoda]

you're gonna need a big battery to sustain 140w output for hours

unless it's only spikes

[olive sable]

this uses slightly more power than a raspberry pi, only like 20x as much

[fast pagoda]

a 27k mAh battery power bank could handle 140w sustained for like

30-40 mins

[azure lynx]

how much power does the motor need to maintain the 30 rev per sec?

how much mass will it be moving?

[half glade]

I haven't tried using a power bank to supply power to the motor, but I guess it's likely to output only 5V 1A.

[olive sable]

the motor only uses 15W at most. but then we're forgetting about the orange pi 5 using up to 25W, and the lightcrafter 4500 doing 80W

[azure lynx]

haha @ only 15W being enough.

[fast pagoda]

for PD ur looking at like 5 amp 28v

for 140w

[olive sable]

ye

thats what it is

[half glade]

I once used the battery to run Jestonnano. With Yolo, he was able to run for an hour.

[fast pagoda]

it'd have cell voltage at 3.7 so it's probably running 3.7v 38 amps from the cells

then converted

[olive sable]

stop lookign for batteries, we dont need it.
those will run through the same usb-c board anyways

[azure lynx]

how did you choose the motor and driver? because i think you might have used unloaded speeds.

[olive sable]

i chose one that could do 900rpm

then i got whatever was the first thing that supported it as motor controller

[azure lynx]

what is the mass of the assembly you'll be moving?

[olive sable]

maybe 100 gram at most

probably a lot less

[fast pagoda]

idk why this would want batteries anyways it's gonna be near power yea?

[olive sable]

the motor supposedly is able to do 1360 rpm, i overspecced it

[azure lynx]

and how much drag will it experience?

[olive sable]

yes

[olive sable]

i didnt have the budget for fluid simultations

so your geuss is as good as mine

[azure lynx]

it's a very very big propellor with a huge surface area. it might work fine with the first ESC you found.

[olive sable]

it will experience as much drag as a plexiglass panel inside a cylinder spinning at 900rpm will experience i guess

[half glade]

The higher the rotational speed, the smaller the torque.

[azure lynx]

i'm just used to things spinning on that order of speed with 10x the mass and pretty much zero air resistance.
so i think having a fast moving sail will take a lot of energy.

[half glade]

What do you use as the lower-level computer?stm32，esp32 or arduino？

[olive sable]

orange pi 5 ultra

[half glade]

emmm，Is this a bit expensive

[olive sable]

yes

[half glade]

I once worked on the lower-level part of a ROS robot.

[azure lynx]

the intent isn't just to have a robot controlled motor though.

[half glade]

The components I'm using are STM32 and FreeRTOS. You can refer to them for guidance.

[olive sable]

the purpose of the motor is just to spin at exactly 900rpm. doesnt need to be anything fancy

ther projector part is the fancy thing

[half glade]

Because I drew the circuit board myself, the final cost including the Raspberry Pi was only 2,000 RMB.

[azure lynx]

the motor does though need to be able to rotate your fan blade at 900 RPM. which i think i could potentially cause problems for you based on your purchases.

[half glade]

Four 370 motors were used.

[olive sable]

romanian bmoneys?

[half glade]

Chinese

about 300$

If you are interested in building robots, I would recommend that you learn ROS2.

Most of the robots on the market are using this operating system.

[olive sable]

not really in building robots

this motor stuff is interesting but kinda a pain sometimes

[azure lynx]

"integration paradise": where side quests stop your project advancing.

[amber fractal]

[half glade]

haha，if you've done it once, it will be much easier afterwards.

[amber fractal]

I'm lucky I'm doing main quest first, then doing side quests afterwards.

Surely the side quests won't kill me more than the main project

[olive sable]

i set the usb c board to 28V but the multimeter says 20V

imma just buy one with switches, i think this one is borked

[azure lynx]

i've had the "huh... the first choice we made for component A didn't work because of an unforeseen thing. Let's become an expert in that component so I don't make the same mistake again!" problem multiple times. still need a solution to identify it when it's happening.

[half glade]

Remember to connect a diode to prevent the reverse flow of current.

If you don't want to burn out the power supply,

[olive sable]

first mistake to rectify is to find one that doesnt need to be soldered to select voltage

i thought that was automatic but it isnt

[olive sable]

motors work both way tho no?

[half glade]

There are modules that can change the voltage output by using potentiometers.

Connect to the power line that supplies power to the L298N.

The l298n is very prone to burning out. Once it burns, the positive and negative electrodes will short-circuit.

[olive sable]

leme retestt hat before i spend more money

[half glade]

The 370 motor is generally unlikely to break down.

[olive sable]

[olive sable]

how do i make it not fuck up everything?

[half glade]

Add a diode to prevent the power supply from being damaged.

Anyway, motor drives are consumables.

And use an optocoupler to prevent the Raspberry Pi from being damaged.

If the l298n burns out, the signal pins will receive a large amount of current.

[azure lynx]

getting a driver which is overpowered for what you want is another way to prevent them burning out.

and only powering them with enough power to do what you need

[half glade]

So I recommend that you use a microcontroller to drive the motor. This way, even if it gets burned out, you won't feel too bad about it.

[olive sable]

setting it to 36V also gives 20V.
so i think the 2nd piece of tape isnt makign contact and the default is jsut 20V

[half glade]

12 volts is already sufficient to power the motor.

[olive sable]

the only thing going towards the motor are encoder cables and 12 data pins tho

[half glade]

Your total power is fixed. Even if the voltage is higher, it won't affect the motor.

The l298n will burn out the Raspberry Pi by following the PWM pin and controlling the direction pin.

[olive sable]

i cant really fix that tho

unles si put an octocoupler on the data line?

[obsidian mantle]

int = long?

they are both 32bit????

[half glade]

try to use tlp521

[azure lynx]

depends.
sizeof(int) <= sizeof(long)

[obsidian mantle]

whatever i just end my loop when it becomes 0

its shiftleft loop starting with 1

int long whatever

[azure lynx]

not sure that is defined...

but should be fine

[half glade]

Regrettably, it is indeed the case.

[obsidian mantle]

enums are so bad i hate them

[half glade]

haha，When you start using state machines, you will come to love enum.

[azure lynx]

if you hate enums, why don't you go back to machine language then.

[obsidian mantle]

they should be more convenient to use

[half glade]

I did not use optocouplers to drive the motor through tb6612 in an earlier project.，But at that time, I was using the stm32f103rct6, and it was priced at less than 5 dollars.

[olive sable]

[azure lynx]

you can get away without an optocoupler if you never blow it up.

[opaque sigil]

platform/implementation specific

[azure lynx]

and you can avoid (mostly) blowing up motor controllers by being gentle: don't overload them for too long and ramp up slowly

[olive sable]

since the buck converters are in parallel they should be mostly electrically independent

[half glade]

In most cases, the motor drive will not burn out, unless it encounters a great deal of resistance or high-frequency oscillation.

[azure lynx]

because you have encoders you can stop supplying power to the motor if they stall. keeping 100% power when the motor is stalled is the best way to kill either the driver or the motor

but because you can detect that it's not spinning, you can avoid that way.

[half glade]

I’ve tested the 370 motor before, and at 12V, the current usually stays below 1A. However, when it hits high resistance, the current can spike up to 2A

However, the L298N has a maximum output of only 2A. This means if the motor stalls, there's a high risk the driver will burn out

[olive sable]

misclick

[olive sable]

aight, i ordered some resisters, diodes, capacitors, and a BTS7960

should be better for the case of critical failure

[azure lynx]

i get making critical failures better... but you could argue that more sparks and exploding parts is better too. I think exploding parts makes movies better...

[olive sable]

im sure it wouldnt hurt but it's really just wanting you to have ur algebra down (linear)

like 1st year calc

know how to do proofs

it has a lot of the math needed in it

[opaque sigil]

A bit of probability theory doesn't hurt

[fast pagoda]

true

induction proofs to expand on proofs (discrete math)

it's crazy how much more direct access you have to amd gpu in linux

than nvidia

wow

[opaque sigil]

hm?

[fast pagoda]

with this gpu, i have way more access than i did with my nvidia card

i can change voltage and clocks/power limit, fan curves etc no problem

[opaque sigil]

Ah that's what you mean

[azure lynx]

they give you an elephant rifle you can point at whichever foot you like

[opaque sigil]

But yeah, to summarise it's mostly discrete math and probability theory for some proofs

[fast pagoda]

the rest of the math is there if you can read it well

they have it all in the appendices pretty much

[stone badge]

ty for answering, currently studying induction then gonna move to linear algebra, hopefully it doesnt takes more than 2 months

can someone help pls

how do i switch from windows to linux

[fast pagoda]

strang has a shorter book called linear algebra for everyone that isn't as long as intro to linear

https://tenor.com/view/matthew-knight-pull-up-gif-10677305626251266214

[void marsh]

no but like

what is my bios key

[fast pagoda]

burn an iso of a distro to a usb stick, boot into it, follow what will prob be calamares, and yolo

in windows if you reboot with advanced startup you can have it send you to recovery

and then go to bios from advanced options in there

otherwise spam f9-f12 and delete on boot

one of those will prob be it

[azure lynx]

or f2

[void marsh]

ok

[opaque sigil]

If you have a laptop just google

[void marsh]

see yall in linux

[opaque sigil]

If not spam

[fast pagoda]

that's my kinda approach

yolo

what distro are you going for

[void marsh]

SEND LUCK

[void marsh]

POP_OS

[fast pagoda]

not a bad choice at all

cosmic is cool

[void marsh]

yeah no i did my research

[fast pagoda]

well that one's install is very straightforward

do you have an nvidia gpu

[opaque sigil]

Surely 26.04 won't be 2 years late

Right

[void marsh]

i just dont want no windows nonsense leaking into my games

[fast pagoda]

release 26.04
2028

[void marsh]

yes ik games will be hard on here

[fast pagoda]

honestly i havent had a game i cant run

except for shit with malware like vanguard games

with proton anything is possible

[fast pagoda]

https://tenor.com/view/you-just-got-to-believe-spongebob-mindy-believe-trust-gif-14421927

proton and a good wine ui

i am NOT good with shell interfaces

[fast pagoda]

you'll figure it out

syntax is ez

[void marsh]

ok

guys

I WILL BE BACK

[fast pagoda]

most resources are very clear, idk how pop wiki is

[void marsh]

also i have another question for when i get back

[amber fractal]

shell is just a small learning curve for those that understand that it is nothing to fear

[void marsh]

wait can i enter bois through restart

LOL

[fast pagoda]

and then after a few months you'll feel naked and lost without term

[void marsh]

I MEANT BIOS

[fast pagoda]

just hit window key and type "uefi"

[amber fractal]

[fast pagoda]

and hit that advanced startup

[amber fractal]

Major spelling mistake

[void marsh]

https://tenor.com/view/boi-spongebob-rage-gif-1079789998347984343

[fast pagoda]

mistake

[void marsh]

ok i did something wrong

[amber fractal]

did you forget the boot order?

[void marsh]

i chose removable drive in boot from dvd/drive

and it just booted windows

ok hold on

let me try bios

[azure lynx]

perhaps the image isn't on the drive correctly?
how did you prepare the USB drive?

[void marsh]

OML

ITS NOT WORKING

[void marsh]

I USED RUFUS ON A USB HARD DRIVE

I SET ALL USB DEVICES ON BOOT PRIORITY

[fast pagoda]

install ventoy on the drive and drop the iso in there and then boot into ventoy's uefi

windows fuckin hates giving up being the primary boot

i cant tell 9if this is truly more info than nvidia gives access to or if it's just the way it's presented + having more control over the things it is telling me since i can do voltage etc, but

even btm and btop have more info

well btop is about the same

i was afraid id have nothing in btop at all

[void marsh]

do i just install ventoy and just put the iso?

or do i install the iso into the drive

[amber fractal]

install ventoy to the drive, then place the iso on the drive once it is finished

ventoy will search for files in there to boot from

ofc only picking bootable files, so you can still use it normally

[void marsh]

wait but how do i boot from the usb

my bios has no usb boot option

and the recovery just boots from windows

[opaque sigil]

You treat it like any other drive

Its gonna be listed as like uefi or something

Well, under volt is less of a "it's too hot" thing and more of a "cool it down a little so it can boost higher" thing

Normal boost clock on this GPU is like 2920 MHz and with 75 mv under volt and raised power limit + fans allowed to go nuts it was holding like 3225-3250 MHz without any offset on the GPU clock which was nice

God is it fucking loud tho

I am dearly afraid of what will happen with both the 3080 and the 9700 in the case at the same time, driver wize

I should put this Intel card in there too just for the lulz

3 cards 3 vendors
