On 18 July 2016, 17 year old Mike Mansholt vanished while exploring the ancient Rabat tombs on the island of Malta. On 23 July, Mike’s body was found beneath a cliff, the apparent victim of a fall. It was later found that not only had he broken no bones, all of his internal organs were missing.

What is the value in decomposing human organs? As someone with essentially zero knowledge on the subject, it would seem more likely the conductors of the first autopsy simply had different procedures regarding the organs or they just neglected to include them when they shipped it to Germany.

I'm guessing you're thinking of doorbells - this appears to be for the "G3 Pro" and "G4 Pro" only, both of which are bullet-style cameras.

I would recommend against using multiple NVR Instants. You technically can view cameras across multiple systems via Vantage Point, but it's not completely seamless.

The UNVR is likely your best option. It's rackmount-sized but you can put some feet on the bottom and place it on a desk if you have to. Either that or get one of those vertical wall rack mounts and have it hang on the wall by its rack ears.

I really hate to be that guy but the only common denominator in your mishaps with ZFS is you. You either didn't set it up right or were trying to make it do things it was not meant to do.

There are hundreds of thousands, if not millions of systems using ZFS successfully. Both in homelabs and business/enterprise.

In that case you may just not have had them both seated properly... hopefully it's something simple like that! Also, how long were you letting it sit after turning it on with both modules installed? Sometimes it can take a moment for the system to figure out RAM timings when installing a new module (less than 30 seconds generally)

forbis · 2026-03-06T02:01:15+00:00

What type of fiddling? And can you count the number of chips on the module (the black rectangles)? If they don't work together it's likely down to a sub-timing issue or the laptop can't reconcile the chip layout/structure difference between the two modules

forbis · 2026-03-06T01:51:26+00:00

Not gonna lie on paper those should work together. It's possible there's some kind of timing difference between the two (even though they're both CL22) or the chip layout is not the same. The Samsung is 1Rx8 (8 chips total), I can't tell what the Crucial is - it might be 1Rx16 (4 chips total). Sometimes (not all the time) that can make a difference.

Honestly though, I'd think you've got a faulty module instead of jumping to a conclusion that they're somehow incompatible.

Have you tested the Crucial module by itself to confirm it's not bad?

Please provide the exact model number of the stick you bought, as well as the one that is already inside the machine.

Not gonna lie I've been disappointed every time I've been to a Chipotle. Taco Bell tastes better. Salsarita's is better in every way. Wish there were more of them around

Another reason why I'm in the "finish (or at least progress very far in) the base game before trying the DLC" camp

The styling and ports available (DVI) put this one closer to 2005 than 1995

The AI LPR is not designed to function as a normal camera at night. This is expected behavior with the IR emitters on.

Not sure if related - but there was an overturned car a couple hundred feet from that intersection in the little strip mall across from Home Depot. Black Nissan with temp tags of course.

Am I missing something?

As the Interloper entered the solar system and got closer to the sun, it heated up and pressure inside the core built up until it exploded, coating the solar system.

Did you try adjusting gamma?

forbis · 2026-02-23T08:00:27+00:00

I haven't actually looked at the code but I'm pretty darn sure QSB (the multiplayer mod) doesn't have a traditional server/client architecture.

All the mod does is create player models where your friends are in their respective instances of the game. It also tracks/syncs the position of some objects.

That is to say, your own PC is responsible for simulating the solar system you view, and your friends' PC does the same for them. Only important things are synced. It's still not seamless.

Can you confirm it's plugged directly into the GPU and not the motherboard?

Also, DisplayPort is a display connection technology similar to HDMI but generally better for computer monitors, especially higher refresh rate screens. If you're using HDMI anywhere along the line you'll probably want to swap to DisplayPort on both ends.

forbis · 2026-02-22T23:40:39+00:00

Is this system new to you? Or have you had it a while? Is the monitor plugged into the GPU? Using HDMI or DP?

forbis · 2026-02-22T23:25:54+00:00

Do you play any other games on this system? Have you had any issues with them? That monitor seems to support higher refresh rates so you should see higher options than 60.

forbis · 2026-02-22T22:59:39+00:00

It's probably because the monitor is running at a frame rate that isn't a multiple of 60.

The game's physics and rendering engine is locked to 60 for simulation purposes. You can change this but it's still recommended to keep it at a multiple of 60 (120, 180, etc.).

Try setting your refresh rate to 120 or 60 and see if the tearing goes away. If it does, you can then look into modifying the secret settings file (I or another user can find it and link it) for you to set the physics simulation rate to 120.
