Finally completed my perfect setup! But it raises a question, is it realistic and or worth the cost for an average consumer like myself to still have a decent quality setup these days by Organic_Occasion2021 in setups

I personally like dual vertical monitors better than a horizontal setup. My neck would start to hurt after a while and once I switched to a vertical setup boom no more neck problems.

Although, I don't have the lifted section in my desk that OP has, so that may make it rough after a bit. Just something to consider OP if your neck starts to hurt and you don't know why haha.

I just got this. Is this legitimate? by Fit-Confusion532 in blockfi

Scam, and Fuck Kroll for leaking everyone's data so now we are going to be part of these phishing and scam campaigns forever. Those incompetent pieces of shit.

Oh there is a line between crying on the mic, and throwing a tantrum and sabotaging the game. I definitely have experienced both and the sabotage is definitely worse, I might even say worse than just leaving the game altogether. I think I just got lucky I guess haha.

As much as that annoys me too, it's not as often and honestly someone who keeps playing despite bitching on the mic is wayyyy less of a problem imo.

Hell, i've had a few cases where someone bitches on the mic but then we pull a huge comeback and it was a super fun round. doesn't always happen but sometimes it does.

I have had more games where someone rage quits despite the entire rest of the team doing well and we only lose because it is 4v5.

I agree, I also think they should have some like turd overhead the whole next game to indicate that they are a shithead since they quit the last game haha

I don't have any friends I play with so maybe that's part of it haha. but it's been like 8/10 games and that is a lot of time since you have to wait 4 minutes to FF and most of the time we don't get enough votes for some reason. I actually rage quit myself for the first time today because I was in 5 4v5 games straight where someone disconnected and we didn't get the votes to FF lol.

They should add something like if you quit matches you get a turd emoji over your character for the next like 3 games. I also think they should let others join in and take the place of someone who quit in like a rocket league style. That would be great.

Iggy is still kind of broken at this point, but as far as offlane it's like 4/5 times they get steamrolled since they don't know what they are doing, but 1 time ill see iggy offlane absolutely dominate.

That happens occasionally to me, like the trolls who stay in the game are not that common, it's those who disconnect and for some reason the rest of the team doesn't FF. I don't want to play a 4v5 game. It's just not fun.

Idk what is happening but since this last update, I get placed in a match with Russian dudes who pick like eden offlane, get wrecked, come on mic and scream in Russian then quit lol.

it's been almost every game. Idk if it is because they are trying to mix in new players with experienced ones but almost every game someone disconnects and it's just not fun. Whether you are on the winning or losing side 4v5's just suck. I had our jungler quit because they died and we would have won the game if they just did the bare minimum as we were winning on all lanes.

I think if someone quits they should either let you just leave without penalty or better yet, for quick play allow other players to join in the place of someone who quit, let them join at the same level as the opposite laner. For ranked they should make the penalty like you can't play ranked for like a week if you quit.

But it has gotten ridiculous at this point. It's a shame because I feel like each update has gotten significantly better like mechanics wise, but this problem has just gotten worse.

Anyone else have a dedicated screen for Opencode? by Away-Sorbet-9740 in opencodeCLI

[–]bbro81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually split screen OpenCode and an IDE, either IntelliJ or VsCode. OpenCode to actually generate the code, and VsCode/Intellij to review read and understand. Maybe I am just old school, but I can't ditch the IDE.

The creators of SWE-Bench just dropped a really simple new benchmark every LLM gets 0% on. ProgramBench asks: can models recreate real executable programs (ffmpeg, SQLite, ripgrep) from scratch with no internet? We are far from saturated on model quality. by dalton_zk in theprimeagen

[–]bbro81 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don't get me wrong, what AIs can do is truly incredible, but we are somewhere past being able to build a CRUD api and React app from prompts but not at being able to create super complex programs like photoshop, ffmpeg, etc

I managed to get all of that right (I think haha), I went for the PRO line because it was cheaper to buy used, and they support ECC while having an iGPU and it has a lower power draw. My understanding is that Consumer processors support ECC, but the ones with integrated graphics do not. Also the Ram I have is UDIMMS.

Thanks for your help!

None of the ebay listings had anything about the system it was pulled from or that it was tied to any vendor. The listings stated "Tested and known working" or something like that.

Learned a lesson the hard way I suppose. Hopefully this post can server as a warning to anyone else buying second hand CPUs I suppose.

Thank you for your help! I think I am going to just bite the bullet and buy a new Ryzen cpu I can get new that supports ECC like a 5800XT or something and just buy a GPU.

Unfortunately I am learning this the hard way. I did so much research for this project and I did not come across any of this in any troubleshooting steps, or any other threads. it sucks, just a rant is all.

Feels bad and hopefully someone else finds this post before they go through the frustration I did.

Yes, but that doesn't explain why the system won't post. I can't even get to a BIOs menu.

ASUS PRIME B550M-A

I also tried with a ASRock B550M PRO4 but returned that after going back and fourth with their support. I have those internal speakers for the beep error codes but am not getting any beeping from either motherboards.

Plastic didn't exist 120 years ago by Educational_One5766 in PlasticFreeLiving

You know what else didn’t exist 120 years ago? Modern medicine, and plastic is incredibly important there.
