    Does coil whine bother other middle aged people?

    I’ve always hated it and have returned or repaired hardware that suffered from it. Hell no from me Edit: CRT monitors used to be bad with it (or at least, the junk hand-me-downs I was using did)

    Bambu Labs Printers

    Shaking is an understatement lol. I actually had to put mine down in the basement on an old heavy coffee table because it was shaking my desk so violently. It’s also very loud so my wife appreciated that. But man… the quality of the prints are the best I’ve ever seen from an FDM printer. Truly...

    Arch Linux entering into a direct collaboration with Valve

    Love arch! This will be a welcome step towards ditching windows for good

    A.I. couch co-op and pass the controller can/should be the killer feature on next gen consoles

    With the AI takeover in the near future, I was just thinking how cool it would be to be able to “pass the controller” to an A.I. buddy when you get frustrated with a certain section of a game or if you just dislike the mission type. This would also be pretty great for local co-op games or...

    Bambu Labs Printers

    My old and tired JGmaker finally bit the dust. It was my first printer and was forced to learn a lot on it but I’m so over the hobby printer scene and wanted something that I can spend more time doing engineering and less time tinkering and calibrating. Been eyeing up the P1S for a while and...

    thanks bro! I'll give that a try tonight, looks much better than fan-control appreciate that

    Controlling system/gpu fans in arch/manjaro? Software or hardware?

    Im taking a test drive of Manjaro on my main rig to see if I can make it work for my day to day and the one thing I can’t seem to get around is controlling the fan speeds. I found some helpful tutorials/forum posts on getting lm-sensors setup and I can see the fans after I force it to look for...

    Windows 10 users: Get ready to be bugged about creating a Microsoft Account

    It's going to be a great day when I finally kick windows to the curb... The next machine I build will be an Arch box.

    Windows 10 update KB5034441 is still broken, more than a month after release

    it (KB5034441) fails to install, sorry for the missing context

    Windows 10 update KB5034441 is still broken, more than a month after release

    Same here on two installations of Windows 10 21H2 LTSC (one physical and one virtual)

    Glossy vs. matte

    Glossy 100% it's not always possible though, due to the environment... sometimes matte is better. However, take the environment out of the equation and I'll go glossy every single time.

    FS: Tesla autopilot/FSD anti-nag device

    Nothing! Everything functions as it did before :) Its just adding and subtracting a notch of volume every so often. You can double click the scroll wheel to enable/disable it and there are a few other small things that the user can customize with various other combos (triple click, quadruple...

    Linux Suggestion

    For ease of use, you really can't beat Ubuntu. I recently setup a Arch VM (also what SteamOS is built on) and I'm really liking it thus far. Whenever I finally ditch windows for good, I will likely go with that or Chimera unless Valve releases SteamOS to the masses first.

    FS: Tesla autopilot/FSD anti-nag device

    I realize this is a long shot but I know a few folks here have teslas. I picked this thing up about a month ago and decided to spend a little bit more money and get a different product. Essentially what it does is act as an emulator for the steering wheel scroll wheels and will activate them at...

    CLOSED [W] Jonsbo n1 / n2 or similar case. 4-8tb HDDs *Purchased one*

    When I built my server, maybe 6-7 months ago, the N2s were still pretty easy to find but starting to sell out at retailers. The N1's had been discontinued and so were very difficult to get a hold of outside of China/Aliexpress with shipping that was 2-3X time cost of the case (no thanks). I...

    CLOSED [W] Jonsbo n1 / n2 or similar case. 4-8tb HDDs *Purchased one*

    Running the N1 for my NAS/Server and it's an amazing little case. Def hard to find but well worth it if you want that form factor. edit: if you plan on filling all of the HDD slots, I would suggest removing the front trim piece and leave it all mesh

    AMD Publishes FSR 3 Source Code

    I did a little bit of testing with Cyberpunk 2077 after watching the DF video and I'm absolutely blown away how well it works. Running it @ 4K on my 3090 nearly maxed out with DLSS and it's barely making the card work and still getting a solid 60fps. VERY impressed.

    Steam Deck Tips & Tricks

    I tried to get EmuDeck installed several times but could never seem to get it setup properly. The installation is a little bit cryptic and had problems importing my library. Eventually, I got frustrated enough to ditch it and just use retroarchs library feature instead (especially since I didn't...

    your windows 11 experience. What you hate, what you love.

    Things I like - The new UI looks nice aesthetically. Has support for all the latest bells and whistles. Things I dislike- Almost everything else. There is just too much to list that I dislike about it Windows 11. I’ve tried giving it an honest try, several times now, but always end up...

    Deck OLED

    I can’t speak for everyone but in my case, it’s not that I “prefer” streaming, it’s just that it’s really convenient. I have access to my entire library anyplace in the house and it just so happens that the displays on my mobile devices are much higher quality than the 32” 60hz VA panel I use in...

    Deck OLED

    no, none whatsoever actually. I use sunshine/moonlight on my iPad Pro as well and it runs surprisingly good. The only time I’ve ever noticed any compression artifacts and/or lag is when the network signal isn’t ideal…. But if I’m in an area of the house with a good signal I actually prefer it...

    Deck OLED

    Got mine today and I’m really impressed! The APU isn’t quite as capable as I was expecting it to be but everything else about it is fantastic. Outside of emulation and older/less demanding titles, I think the majority of my usage will be streaming with moonlight/sunshine to maximize the eye...

    Deck OLED

    Yeah I find that a little puzzling myself. Especially since many many people will end up using a screen protector anyway. Glossy + a matte protector seems like a way better option (IMO)

    Deck OLED

    Interesting. I originally got my deck in my cart at like 1:01pm this afternoon but didn’t complete checkout until after 2:00. Wonder if they’re honoring peoples places in line? We’ll find out soon I suppose

    Deck OLED

    Where did it say that? I literally just got through the checkout process and it still said 3-5 business days edit: I certainly hope it's not like the OG launch

    Beat youtube ad block blocking with FreeTube

    f*ck google thanks OP! edit: I'll leave this here as well. I don't have an android phone, so I can use it... but figured I'd share the wealth. It sort of reminds me of that gab plugin to comment on any website without said sites supporting said comment system. https://grayjay.app/

    Windows 11 doesn't play nice with repacks?

    lol that legit blows my mind. Especially with so many documented cases, how is that possible? I will admit, while testing I DID get a single one of them to install without issue, but the rest all threw up errors on windows 11.

    Not that I had any luck with. YMMV

    Windows 11 doesn't play nice with repacks?

    lol seriously? A repack is exactly what it sounds like. A “scene” group or user will take a cracked game and repack it into a new installer… often including things like trainers/cheats/etc while removing other things like foreign languages/low resolution cutscenes, etc and at higher...

    Windows 11 doesn't play nice with repacks?

    Thanks for the help and the confirmation Dopamin, I appreciate the effort! I def didn't see that link in your last post, but I did try all of those fixes outlined in it via various forum/reddit/youtube videos with no resolution. As far as I'm concerned, I'm done trouble shooting it. I'll just...

    Windows 11 doesn't play nice with repacks?

    Oh wow, thanks for that! That actually makes a ton of sense. I searched pretty extensively but only found suggestions on how to fix it (that never actually work lol). I'm actually surprised that, with how long windows 11 has been out, this isn't common knowledge. I guess thats just another...
