    You can also do this in Steam. Go to Properties of the game and then betas. You can enable the 1.6 patch there.

    Whatz your oldest system/gear you still use on a daily or regular basis?

    I've got a couple older laptops I like to use to test OS installs and software without breaking my current rig. Latitudes E6410 and 6430u I also still use my original Logitech Rumble Pad 2 for some games and retros. I think my oldest tech is probably my Alpine MRV-T502 amplifier in my car...

    Do you generally prefer smaller phones or larger phones?

    Since I don't do everything on my phone 6" is usually my max. My latest phone is 6.4, but that's the smallest Moto I could find and still have decent specs.

    Moto G Power 5G

    I'd look at picking this up if I didn't have the Power from 2020. They really downgraded the '21 and '22, but this looks nice. Unfortunately by the time they drop the bottom out of the price they won't be pushing updates for it anymore. Or, I pick up one of these and keep the '20 as a spare.

    Dell Optiplex 7010, just because build.

    Did the 1070 fit in the 7010 case? Looking to upgrade my 1050ti at some point.

    Dell Optiplex 7010, just because build.

    I've seen a few OptiPlex videos and they also removed the drive cage to make room for longer cards. I have a 3020 MT case that I threw a 990 in, removed the optical drives and installed a monitor for stats.

    Need Help Finding a Mobile Game

    If you're still using the same Google account you can find the game. Open the Play Store then click on your account. Go to manage apps and device and under manage you'll see all your installed apps. If you change the pulldown from installed to not installed you should find apps on your account...

    External 4 Bay JBOD with Windows Storage Spaces vs External RAID / NAS enclosure.

    I'm running a JBOD Storage Space with and IcyDock ICYcube 4 drive enclosure in the mirrored configuration. I can move the enclosure to a different computer and my Storage Space is available as long as it's running an equal or newer version of Windows. If I plug it into a PC running an older...

    Laptop USB ports not supplying enough power to phone and tablet.

    I tested on my phone and a USB meter, it charges at .95A or 950mA on my laptop but the same port USB 3 port charges my old tablet at .42A or 420mA. It seems you're still limited to the USB 2 power spec by the devices themselves even if you're using USB 3 ports.

    UPS battery brand suggestion?

    I've read 3-5 years is average battery life on consumer grade backups. I don't have much experience outside of APC and CyberPower but lots of people praise Eaton for their backup solutions.

    LCD Screen for sensors??

    I cut out the 5" bays in my old OptiPlex and put a 7" screen in there. It's powered and gets signal by internal USB headers. I'm using Rainmeter and Speedfan for the info which looks much different now.

    [Epic Store] 3 out of 10: Season Two (free till 4/15 8AM)

    I really liked the gameplay of season 1. Good animation and the mini games were fun. I liked that you didn't need to ace the mini games to progress the story.

    Win 10 running two different sets of Bluetooth Speakers at the Same Time?

    If you already have the hardware then you can try it. I can see it working if you don't need to cover a large area. This is slightly changing things, but would that BT amp be able to transmit to the set of amplified speakers? You could shift the workload from your PC to the amp. Have you...

    Win 10 running two different sets of Bluetooth Speakers at the Same Time?

    If one speaker started to get out of sync I think pausing and starting again fixed it. I didn't make any changes to the audio delay as mine stayed pretty much in sync as long as they were both using the same API. There doesn't seem to be any logic or checking for sync so this doesn't look like...

    Win 10 running two different sets of Bluetooth Speakers at the Same Time?

    It depends on the audio interface API you are using. There is WDM, KS and MME available. I found best to use the same medium for both speakers and I got minimal lag/delay while using KS (Kernel Streaming). They do reference this in the manual towards the end.

    Win 10 running two different sets of Bluetooth Speakers at the Same Time?

    Hmm, not sure what happened. I rebooted and tried again, it's working much better now. I also grabbed a 2nd laptop with BT 5.1 and it worked with no issues there either. Voicemeeter should be able to do what you want. I'd say give it a try. Good luck.

    Win 10 running two different sets of Bluetooth Speakers at the Same Time?

    Voicemeter seems to be able to do the job of sending the audio to two different interfaces like headphones and internal speakers. I'm having an issue with two Bluetooth speakers, but it looks like a bandwidth issue. When I send audio to the 2nd speaker I start to get breaks in the audio I...

    Win 10 running two different sets of Bluetooth Speakers at the Same Time?

    I've been messing with this a bit. With my laptop, I can get the two BT speakers connected, but the stereo mix doesn't allow them both to play. My stereo mix uses the jack mic to send the 2nd audio out, so my speakers can play and headphones can be used at the same time. I haven't tried this...

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge

    I'll probably still get it, but would have rather it been styled like SOR4 or just animated like in the trailer.

    My laptop's wifi adapter is faulty, are there any alternatives?

    Hopefully a replacement could just be slotted in. I have run into many Lenovo laptops mostly T410s when we had those and M93 desktops that don't accept just any WiFi cards that fit in the slot. We'd usually have to check specification or repair manuals and they'd have a list of approved cards...

    Please Don't Use USPS, They Are Now Throwing Out Packages

    I don't know if it was here or somewhere else, but someone who works for USPS says they are still reeling from the moves the Postmaster General made and it's been made worse with the amount of packages being sent this time of year. Our post office later told us that if the mail doesn't get...

    Please Don't Use USPS, They Are Now Throwing Out Packages

    A couple of weeks ago I was waiting for 2 packages via USPS. I got a note in the tracking info saying a package was being held at the post on my request. I didn't request anything to be held. I went to the post office and they had a stack of my mail they were just holding on to and a package...

    Wow, that's awesome. I just passed 19 years myself. I remember I was working in a computer lab in college and I was on caraudioforum, someone posted a link to the [H] for something. I clicked and never looked back. I remember when Genmay was part of this place, the 10K desk, the [H] yearbook...

    Any non-google/Android or Apple phones out there?

    Researching the Pine64 company looks like pinephone isn't very far from China either. "In January 2020, Pine Microsystems Inc. was dissolved while Pine Store Limited was incorporated on December 5, 2019 in Hong Kong and store.pine64.org claims to operate under the laws of Malaysia and China."...

    What are your favorite LAN party games?

    SW needs a few patches to run smoothly. We spent about 30 mins getting everyone on the right version so I'd skip it if you don't want to spend time troubleshooting. Deceit is pretty good, easy to pick up and play. Teamwork makes that one more fun. Brawlhalla is like smash and it's also a good...
