still waiting for that armwarmer ;)

2019-08-13 10:22:49 UTC

that handwarmer is most likely custom work try ETSY instead of aliexpress

2019-08-13 10:23:18 UTC

@Tervy Eneloops and Laddas are made in the same factory in Japan

2019-08-13 10:23:41 UTC

yeah meant japan

2019-08-13 10:23:44 UTC

my brain(SEEEE) just derped

2019-08-13 10:34:56 UTC

i tried etsy but english isnt my first language and i dont know what search terms to use :(

2019-08-13 10:36:10 UTC

knowing simple people id try "circuit,computer,nerd,robot,electronics" whatever other idiotic marketing words there is for that shit and fabric in the end

2019-08-13 10:36:42 UTC

but that fabric looks like some lucky find as it has both binary and electronics in it

2019-08-13 10:36:51 UTC

so might be harder to find it

2019-08-13 10:45:05 UTC

Try sleeve or glove

2019-08-13 10:52:15 UTC

hm, cant find it at all. maybe i'll just make it myself then

2019-08-13 10:52:17 UTC

thanks anyway~

2019-08-13 11:40:32 UTC

literally no reason to have implants

2019-08-13 11:40:35 UTC

they are not advanced enough

2019-08-13 11:40:41 UTC

plus there is the issue of upgradation

2019-08-13 11:41:00 UTC

unless you have perfect nanites, implants are stupid unless you are trying to fix a disability

2019-08-13 11:41:09 UTC

like a hearing aid or somethjng

2019-08-13 11:41:19 UTC

and even that is just trying to salvage what is left

2019-08-13 11:42:06 UTC

also that woman sounds stupid

2019-08-13 11:42:21 UTC

she literally cannot control if someone forces her to open her car

2019-08-13 11:42:34 UTC

an encrypted locking remote would have been better imo

2019-08-13 11:48:15 UTC

at least stealing her hand is harder than keys during robbery

2019-08-13 11:48:35 UTC

what is an rfid cloner

2019-08-13 11:50:54 UTC

you think your average nignog who thinks its good idea to steal tesla in first place can use rfid cloner properly durin robbery ?

2019-08-13 11:53:03 UTC

no

2019-08-13 11:53:06 UTC

specialy with encrypted comms cards you need tad bit better tech and pretty much free access for some time to manage it

2019-08-13 11:53:29 UTC

I find the concept of implanting a piece of tech that will become deprecated really stupid

2019-08-13 11:53:37 UTC

given i dont know for sure how tesla 3 does its nfc cards

2019-08-13 11:54:10 UTC

and it is not as if the piece of tech is vital to life

2019-08-13 11:54:12 UTC

like a pace maker

2019-08-13 11:54:52 UTC

I remember zoe quinn did something similar

2019-08-13 11:55:02 UTC

basically implanted a memory device in her hand and put deus ex on it

2019-08-13 11:55:07 UTC

i probly would unlock my workstuff with nfc (implant or not) if not for my work stuff

2019-08-13 11:55:09 UTC

and called herself a "cyborg"

2019-08-13 11:55:59 UTC

but being scared in rfid readers where magnetic strips are used all over still in certain backwater countries

2019-08-13 11:56:35 UTC

both require pretty much direct access for copy

2019-08-13 11:57:19 UTC

difference being you can drop less than 1cm strip reader on any magnetic strip reader to copy the card what passes it ~ where as rfid requires perfect read for time it swipes given its not encrypted and is generic rfid

2019-08-13 11:59:49 UTC

but yeah... silly people wanting to take steps to future instead of using punchcards (given submm glass "punchcards" are hackproof pretty much unless you steal the key and have wondermachine at home)

2019-08-13 12:02:40 UTC

i think the company who tried to make them more popular in heavy security enviroments is gone tho

2019-08-13 12:03:56 UTC

prettymuch glass creditcard what had optic holes and prism formations etc engraved in it with such accuracy that it was near impossible to make identical cards

2019-08-13 12:04:41 UTC

costed like millions trying to see if there is data about what company made it

2019-08-13 12:06:30 UTC

think newers U.S greencards but on steroids

2019-08-13 13:18:58 UTC

are greencards common enough so that everyone knows them over there?

2019-08-13 13:19:02 UTC

i thought they were for foreigners

2019-08-13 13:19:40 UTC

>not being aware of how your own country's govt works

2019-08-13 13:29:42 UTC

and i dont even live there

2019-08-13 13:29:47 UTC

i just happen to know about their features :D

2019-08-13 16:25:49 UTC

managed to get my hands on one ๐Ÿ˜„

2019-08-13 16:31:20 UTC

is that a ruler

2019-08-13 16:31:54 UTC

official novideo ruler

2019-08-13 16:31:55 UTC

nice

2019-08-13 16:44:45 UTC

ye it's a ruler

2019-08-13 16:44:48 UTC

here it is next to the old one

2019-08-13 16:45:09 UTC

the other side of the old one (top) is the same as the visible side of the bottom one in this pic

2019-08-13 16:45:15 UTC

but arranged slightly differently

2019-08-13 16:45:41 UTC

they got rid of the silkscreen on the new one

2019-08-13 16:45:44 UTC

cost savings <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

2019-08-14 07:19:24 UTC

ahhaha oh fuck... we once talked shit and theorised this at bar https://www.martinvigo.com/email2phonenumber/ nice to see someone has actualy done some research on it

https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=247380

2019-08-16 08:17:21 UTC

Does the ethernet share the USB bus like it does with Raspberry Pi? (Not sure if it does that on the 4)

2019-08-16 08:24:18 UTC

Orange Pi never did

2019-08-16 08:24:25 UTC

(and the 4 doesn't either anymore)

2019-08-17 17:37:48 UTC

hey anyone good with audio setups?

2019-08-17 17:38:02 UTC

im a total pleb that just got a synth and have some questions

2019-08-18 23:07:33 UTC

did you turn it on?

2019-08-19 11:48:16 UTC

Will be interesting to see how the 3950x performs, and there's also new threadripper coming. But all those will be pretty expensive.

2019-08-23 10:14:42 UTC

is 128gb ssd storage enough for a very basic home use laptop?

2019-08-23 10:16:51 UTC

take that 28Gbs away from that for updates and your windows installation at reallyreally-minimun id say 50Gb to be extra secure due >windows<

2019-08-23 10:17:11 UTC

256 it is

2019-08-23 10:17:18 UTC

so you are left with 70ish gbs of space without overfilling the SSD

2019-08-23 10:17:31 UTC

id say 70gb is enough for your average documents,videos and what not

2019-08-23 10:17:45 UTC

also, what does 4gb soldered + 4 gb dimm mean? I understand it from the technical point of view but does it have an impact on performace?

2019-08-23 10:18:13 UTC

yeah the household has a separate hdd for pics and stuff

2019-08-23 10:18:15 UTC

no impact other than if you want to change ram for faster >it will still work at slowest ram sticks speed due fuck you soldered bitch

2019-08-23 10:18:33 UTC

no I dont think they'll ever need more than 8 gb

2019-08-23 10:18:41 UTC

aka porks upgrade not initial performance

2019-08-23 10:18:52 UTC

also porks repairability

2019-08-23 10:20:04 UTC

Guess I'll have to get them a DOS/linux pc and instantly install W10 on it to save money

2019-08-23 10:20:11 UTC

id say agressive settings on "recycle bin"

2019-08-23 10:20:23 UTC

and they are golden

2019-08-23 10:20:43 UTC

if its for your average netflux and bank payments

2019-08-23 10:20:51 UTC

they have a kid but all he plays so far is minecraft

2019-08-23 10:21:13 UTC

(the reason for a new laptop is that he got mad while playing it and smashed the laptop lmao)

2019-08-23 10:21:19 UTC

so timelock for games set to autokill minecraft at 6pm got it

2019-08-23 10:21:32 UTC

in that case i would deny whole laptop from kid

2019-08-23 10:21:35 UTC

seems like this is the best bang for buck I can get

2019-08-23 10:21:37 UTC

until he learns the value of things

2019-08-23 10:21:48 UTC

@Tervy me too, but it aint my kid

2019-08-23 10:22:19 UTC

the 128 storage got me feeling iffy but I think they'll manage somehow

2019-08-23 10:22:34 UTC

get one with older hdds

2019-08-23 10:22:36 UTC

:D

2019-08-23 10:22:40 UTC

Worst case scenario I'll replace it with some cheapo 256 ssd

2019-08-23 10:22:58 UTC

basically no laptops with only hdds now :(

2019-08-23 10:23:17 UTC

questions is do you need to do the IT-Support

2019-08-23 10:23:23 UTC

due this purchase "is on you"

2019-08-23 10:23:57 UTC

Im not buying it, but I was asked for help picking out since theyre not super tech savvy

2019-08-23 10:24:10 UTC

but know the basics

2019-08-23 10:24:44 UTC

i mean that is good for kid who is total retard by sounds of it

2019-08-23 10:25:18 UTC

just make clear that you will not be IT-Support until consultation fee is paid

2019-08-23 10:25:35 UTC

as once that 128gb is filled with bullshit the gid downloads

2019-08-23 10:25:47 UTC

you want to stay hell away from that hell to clean and work with

2019-08-23 10:27:50 UTC

the same model but with 256 gb is 459 euros, almost 80 euros more than the 128 gb one

2019-08-23 10:28:08 UTC

sounds about right

2019-08-23 10:28:31 UTC

worth it or no ๐Ÿค”

2019-08-23 10:28:47 UTC

I guess I should just let them choose and get it off my mind

2019-08-23 10:28:54 UTC

worth it to keep the kids bullshit at pay for litlebit longer

2019-08-23 10:29:06 UTC

but yeah id say lets them choose their poison

2019-08-23 10:29:32 UTC

id also bring the option to them that they could get some garbage from recycling center for kid

2019-08-23 10:29:42 UTC

until he learns the lesson

2019-08-23 10:30:36 UTC

dunno how "ITC"s are around that part of the world but they usualy have some older hardware for same price

2019-08-23 10:30:57 UTC

yeah I'll just check the local craigslist equivalent

2019-08-23 10:31:12 UTC

and running meincraft on used 5000rpm hdd and 4gb of ram is real experience on top of windows 10

2019-08-23 10:31:18 UTC

theres always a bunch of older-but-not-too-old good lenovos for cheap hanging around

2019-08-23 10:34:28 UTC

cause even if its not your kid someone needs to teach that litle shithead lesson for abusing equipment

2019-08-23 10:37:27 UTC

up for me id throw raspbi at the kid and said "there thats for you until you can buy your own"

2019-08-23 10:37:56 UTC

I kinda understand him though, once when I was playing some Quake 3 online I was really immersed and my wireless mouse would sometimes randomly disconnect and in one match I just threw it against the wall when it did :)

2019-08-23 10:39:03 UTC

i hope someone beat your ass from that (sure mouses lesser value yada yada yada even in my brain :D)

2019-08-23 10:39:24 UTC

hell i would have gotten belt on my ass if i would have trashed our old Olivetti

2019-08-23 10:39:45 UTC

Nah I just had to get a new mouse for my own money and that basically stopped :D

2019-08-23 10:40:15 UTC

so yeah making the kid use shitty shit until he buys own laptop .. there is the solution :D

2019-08-23 10:40:26 UTC

depending on age it takes summer or two

2019-08-23 10:43:18 UTC

imho punishment like that for teenagers with their phones is equaly good it teaches them quite many things + no need to install any malware to control em like some parents do

2019-08-23 10:43:32 UTC

but that is rant and few stories for other time :D

2019-08-24 01:41:46 UTC

Anyone tried logitech's powerplay wireless charging mousepad?

2019-08-24 07:59:51 UTC

no but im thinking of buying one for my g pro wireless

2019-08-24 08:57:46 UTC

@Millwood heard very good things about it, but then again even without the wireless mousepad the mice have enough power to go for a long ass time

2019-08-24 08:59:06 UTC

In my opinion its quite a steep price to pay for a minor convenience

2019-08-24 09:33:44 UTC

How would one clone the nfc info from their credit card to another nfc thing (an nfc sticker)

2019-08-24 09:42:18 UTC

Or is that impossible

2019-08-24 10:35:30 UTC

Yeah I heard it's very good, just seems a little too pricy

2019-08-24 10:55:16 UTC

in short get NFC ident of card X and implement it to equal tag Y

2019-08-24 10:55:36 UTC

in long: dont dive into that world of bullshit

2019-08-24 10:55:47 UTC
2019-08-24 11:04:58 UTC

EMV cards also run on >java< btw || just like all payment cards pretty much ||

2019-08-24 11:19:18 UTC

Yeah, I don't recommend getting into NFC stuff

2019-08-24 11:20:23 UTC

i mean NFC is wonderfull world but .. god fucking damit the knowledge base and the hobbyists around it can be toxic fucks

2019-08-24 11:20:51 UTC

it ofc does not help there being 9001 protocols and 90001 cards and stuff

2019-08-24 11:21:01 UTC

and pretty much nobody following actual standards

2019-08-24 17:47:23 UTC

Hi is mixza micro sd cards still good?

2019-08-24 20:02:42 UTC

Still good
But pricewise it's nothing special anymore, which was the whole reason mixza was 'in'

2019-08-25 16:36:30 UTC

I think it just died after 2,5 years of use

2019-08-25 16:50:22 UTC

not your day

2019-08-25 16:50:43 UTC

and yeah, memories do tend to die absolutely randomly without notice

2019-08-25 22:15:24 UTC

it's dead

2019-08-25 22:15:44 UTC

windows doesn't handle dying or improperly functioning storage devices well, it's a flaw of the storage driver

2019-08-26 03:18:05 UTC

Thought's on buying an AMD 2600 cpu and putting it in a x570 AS Rock Taichi ?

2019-08-26 03:18:48 UTC

Thinking about upgrading the CPU later down the line, and the Ryzen 2600 can be bought for really cheap right now.

2019-08-26 03:19:08 UTC

x570 is still overpriced and also you should just buy a b450/x470/JustWait(tm)

2019-08-26 03:19:42 UTC

Current part list, will use other parts on hand to finish build.

2019-08-26 03:19:52 UTC

and there is virtually no benefits to more expensive motherboards unless you're running the highest end chips and overclocking or need some very niche features

2019-08-26 03:20:07 UTC

Nah I plan on getting the 3900x

2019-08-26 03:20:22 UTC

uh then id just wait or something

2019-08-26 03:20:24 UTC

why even bother

2019-08-26 03:20:24 UTC

or the Zen 3 equivalent

2019-08-26 03:20:40 UTC

To upgrade my current i5 4670k system

2019-08-26 03:21:17 UTC

oh shit

2019-08-26 03:21:24 UTC

i was on 4670k

2019-08-26 03:21:33 UTC

what are you doing on a 3900x

2019-08-26 03:24:53 UTC

CAD

2019-08-26 03:25:42 UTC

What did you upgrade to?

2019-08-26 03:26:43 UTC

3600

2019-08-26 03:26:54 UTC

programs that took 100 cpu util now take 15

2019-08-26 03:26:56 UTC

feels gr8

2019-08-26 03:32:33 UTC

Thoughts on this parts list then?

oh

2019-08-26 03:36:11 UTC

down under

2019-08-26 03:36:24 UTC

i can't really speak about any of those prices

2019-08-26 03:37:42 UTC

i think you should get better ram

2019-08-26 03:37:57 UTC

ryzen scales a lot better with faster ram clocks and smaller ram timings

2019-08-26 03:38:30 UTC

also there are varying types of overclockable ram skus that will push harder than others

2019-08-26 03:39:41 UTC

typically ballistix is cheap and on micron e-die which means its budget and overclocks well

2019-08-26 03:41:01 UTC

if you dont care for overclocking then try to find something at 3200 mhz/CL16 at least

2019-08-26 03:41:38 UTC

those are just figures im pulling out of my ass though

2019-08-26 03:42:27 UTC

ok cheers. I will go for the cheaper Asus mobo, might bump back up to the 1tb ssd and 32gb ram.

2019-08-27 13:10:52 UTC

I got the 3700x, with an too expensive x570 ASUS board. I figure next gen AMD will be the last on AM4, so I might upgrade the CPU or get a cheap used 3900x. After that I guess we'll see DDR5 in 2021 earliest.

2019-08-31 15:25:04 UTC

2019-08-31 15:25:07 UTC

reposting it helps

2019-08-31 15:33:40 UTC

2019-08-31 15:34:04 UTC

mmm yeah seems like nope good to know tho

2019-08-31 15:34:56 UTC

2019-08-31 15:35:02 UTC

just sometimes discord doesnt pick up on regular links either

I've got two 1080 monitors. Anyone know how I can keep my dual monitor setup, but also display what's on one monitor on my 4k TV? Win10, video card has enough ports for everything.

2019-09-01 07:43:03 UTC

i think you either need a splitter, or one of your monitors needs displayport daisychaining

2019-09-01 07:44:10 UTC

actually, maybe you can do it in the nvidia control panel

2019-09-01 07:44:18 UTC

2019-09-01 17:25:16 UTC

@Aqualiteking you're getting scammed for that ryzen 2600

2019-09-01 18:26:13 UTC

@Goz3rr Oh, hot damn, didn't even occur to me to use Nvidia control panel. Thanks!

2019-09-02 00:35:21 UTC

@Kimichiboi why do you say that?

2019-09-02 00:35:35 UTC

prices are in NZD btw

2019-09-02 00:35:57 UTC

ah yes

2019-09-02 00:35:58 UTC

the NZD

2019-09-02 00:36:02 UTC

209NZD = 131USD

2019-09-02 00:50:39 UTC

@Aqualiteking get 450 mortar msi board and 1tb intel p660 instead

2019-09-02 00:51:01 UTC

No MSI boards available

2019-09-02 00:51:24 UTC

any other 450 board should suffice too

2019-09-02 00:51:55 UTC

why in damnation would you buy a x570 for a 2600

2019-09-02 00:55:02 UTC

Cause I wanted to upgrade my againg gomputer now, then get the 3900x when it goes on sale

i really like my xiaomi mi band 4 but why the fuck is the charger on a 10 centimeter cable

2019-09-02 20:54:02 UTC

I never liked the weird chargers they usr

2019-09-02 20:54:22 UTC

the only time it's bearable is if you like, plug it into a PC or laptop or something so it's in arms reach

at least the battery lasts over two weeks

17 days on mine and it only just got to 11%

I can probably do another two days or so

2019-09-02 21:06:25 UTC

That's like half what the first mi band was but they've added so much more features

2019-09-02 21:06:31 UTC

ehhhhhhhh

this one is full rgb oled

looks pretty

2019-09-02 22:55:37 UTC

that's what I mean it's actually usable as a notification tracker now

2019-09-02 22:55:42 UTC

Which is a big feature

2019-09-02 22:55:45 UTC

Can you respond from it?

2019-09-02 22:55:53 UTC

Like SMS and stuff

can't respond but you can read stuff just fine
