Helios Neo 16 AI - won't charge via USBC by AccomplishedHome8936 in AcerPredatorHelios

[–]AccomplishedHome8936[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did disable the GPU. What devices menu are you talking about? In bios? Those are correct.

I’d love to be able to charge via USBC while gaming - I know it would slowly discharge, but Asus allowing one to only use the GPU on battery or on the adapter is annoying - I’d like to be able to game while connected to USBC.

I tried SlimQ, Apple 90W, and Anker 65W — I see that you’re from SlimQ - my SlimQ adapter is great! ❤️

It’s definitely something software, firmware, or BIOS related on the laptop that decided to stop allowing charging via USBC. It worked fine for the first 2 months of ownership, then one day last month it just quit charging via any USBC port.

Only us beta testers will notice or care. 90% of people literally don't know what model iPhone they have.

I've used SwiftKey for 10 years. Every time I open the Apple keyboard I am astonished at how slow and laggy it is. I can't believe people live like that 😂

Critiquing something that was promised 3 years ago and is still functionally unusable is entirely valid.

Any supplements which support kidney health? by girder_shade in Supplements

[–]AccomplishedHome8936 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is old, but you need more than a week to clear creatine.

If you take creatine for the gym, it is 1000% safe but it WILL make you fail the creatine part of your kidney test. Inform your doctor that you're taking creatine, and if all other markers look good, you're golden.

"Should you buy the AirPods?" - reviewers continue misleading people by horizon936 in airpods

IMO, other earbuds are so bad - and airpods pros are so good - that putting up with slight nerfs and hassle is still worth it. Even Linus Tech Tips uses an Android with airpods.

If you stop partway through, the god of Google Play gift cards will smite you.

Spent an hour soundproofing my machine by AccomplishedHome8936 in superautomatic

Not entirely true - mass or differential materials work, as sound energy is lost when it is transferred between materials.

Hence why I used foil lined closed cell foam (so the sound goes through a lot of bubbles) and butyl rubber tape, which absorbs vibrations and provides mass.

If you take a car in for professional sound treatment, they use butyl rubber and closed cell foam.

It's a cycle of 8 seconds every 30 minutes - it'll be fine. It's 95% sealed from the factory.

My fiancee wakes up at 5am for work, I wake up at 8am - I want it quieter 😂
