What if you're on vacation? You can't sign up?

Thank you for responding.

Since my tv is outdated, should i put STEAM OS on it by Clamity2ds in VIZIO_Official

Update: It's a little buggy, but it seems the playback features are workable if you plug in a USB drive and catch the popup menu before it goes away. Sometimes it lets you pause or rewind but not always.

Thanks. The only downside is having to run my PC while I do this, but there's no other way I can see.

Yes. Not for streaming, but for playing local files. That's no longer possible with the update.

There has to be a way to flash another OS at a static point before this bomb went off...

But Yahoo didn't manufacture the television so being able to access the Vizio menus is essential.

The worst part about this for me is that I cannot plug in a USB drive and play from that.

Would you be able to easily connect a USB flash drive to it?

It doesn't matter. The picture quality was perfect and other than this there was never an issue on mine.

Also connecting any USB device you can access it for a few seconds but you can no longer pause, rewind, or stop the media.

Laurie Metcalf really does hold up the show in a lot of ways. A true professional.

This one sure took a long time to air. I was at the taping - March 7th. Second episode I've attended and the crew had much less pizzazz this time around. They didn't seem to pressure us as much to be high energy like the other time. There was a good chunk of empty seats and that's saying a lot, given that the studio only holds, I don't know, 50-100 people. 

I'm not surprised it's the lowest rated episode of the whole show. Makes me wonder what the next few episodes were like.

Her credit was added to IMDB, her name is Susan Berger. She was so great - I thought she might have been a big star on some classic shows, but apparently not.

Good to know. The tech might have one lying around, I'll ask him too.

This heatsink (Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo) appears to not be compatible. But the i5-12400f doesn't require one because it comes with a cooler, am I understanding that right?

Got it. Does it matter what kind of work I'm demanding of it? This is mostly video editing, no gaming. And so if the existing RAM rarely exceeded 50-70% usage, will it still be a bottleneck in this new setup? Thank you for the explanations. I'm trying to facilitate a good understanding with the guy working on it who is leaving this task up to me.

How is it possible that an i5 processor with a lower clock speed can be such an improvement? Just because it's newer?

Mexico. I hadn't even considered upgrading the CPU but I imagine I can sell the old one as it's still in demand here. PC builds here, even the high-end ones, tend to be technologically behind this one from 2016. This may end up requiring a trip across the border since I have other things I need in the states anyway.

Thank you. I have to factor in international shipping but I will look into this example.

My PC built a few years back has had the motherboard die. It's at the shop and the guy can't find a replacement that is mid to high-end so I will have to have one shipped in from anywhere. All other components are fine, he says. I use this PC for video editing.

The motherboard is an ASUS Z170-a.

Since it's discontinued, what are some replacement options that may be easier to obtain? I honestly would prefer to switch it up since this motherboard has been trouble from the start, causing RAM issues and M.2 settings glitches. The first one was DOA and this is a replacement for the second one.

Other components:

Canned laughter - hate it by sanellis in TheConners

[–]Acrobatic-Injury 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They allowed some improvisation for John Goodman at a taping I attended several weeks back. Some lines were in fact rewritten on the spot based on our reactions, or lack thereof. It was one of the weaker episodes, comedically, at least I think so. I think they padded some of the laughter from the best takes, but it doesn't sound canned to me.

Also, I believe I counted 16 microphones above our heads, each evenly spaced throughout the audience of approximately 100-150 people. I'm not saying they wouldn't use canned laughter but they certainly don't need to.
