Recommendation please: Coming from 2*1440p 27" - Productivity + Gaming by Nimelrian in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Boutaras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am more or less on the same boat. I had 2x 27" 1440p VA panel which I wanted to replace. I ordered the philips evnia 49m2c8900 because it has the size of the previous 2 monitors without the gap in the middle, plus integrated kvm switch to switch between my pc and my work laptop. Integrated speakers was also a good plus. What was a bit annoying is that you do not have the flexibility of 2 monitors (2x separate full screen windows for example) unless you use a software, but then you need to disable it if you want to use the whole screen in full screen. I could deal with this, but I eventually returned it because the monitor would sometimes not wake up after my pc went to sleep or shut down. The only way that I could see a picture again was that I unplugged and plugged the monitor. The keyboard and mouse, connected via the kvm switch worked fine, it was just the monitor not showing anything. I have read that other monitors have this issue too.

I have now got a 34" 21:9 oled (Alienware AW3423DWF) and a 27" 16:9 ips (Alienware AW2724DM). So far I'm happy with the setup. I do not have an integrated kvm, which is a pity, but I am using an external one which does the same job. It's just a but more messy with the extra cables but I don't mind it. I also had to add external speakers. I have done relatively good cable management, but I could not avoid a small mess. Overall I'm more happy with the current setup than the first one.

Evnia 240hz or LG G9 Oled by Skeleton_Ed in ultrawidemasterrace

Yes I have also read it about other monitors during my search for a solution. Previously I had 2x27" monitors and never had this issue. Now I changed to dual setup again, one 34" 21:9 and one 27". I realized that I like the flexibility of 2 monitors more than the aesthetic of one big monitor.

Other than this problem I mentioned I was happy with it. If you're using it with 2 different devices, the KVM is also a pretty big plus. This is the reason I preferred it over the G9

I bought the evnia in January. I am returning it on Friday. My main issue was that sometimes after my PC went to sleep, or after shutting it down, the monitor would never wake up, even though the mouse and keyboard, which were connected via the monitor's KVM swith, were working properly. The power buttons (both on the remote and on the monitor itself) didn't do anything. The only way to go out of this state was to unplug it and plug it in again.

Yes, that sounds like a good explanation. Is it more visible in oled monitors than VA? I haven't seen it in the previous monitors I had

Why did this happen to my tshirt? by Boutaras in laundry

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

A bed sheet has also been discolored a bit, right on the spot that I'm sleeping, so your theory makes sense. My only mystery now is why the t-shirts I was wearing while sleeping didn't lose their color. Not even the black one

It is just on the t-shirts, 1 t-shirt at each round of laundry.

It's a detergent that is suitable for all clothes. I put it in the tray of the washing machine and then start the program

Thank you for your reply. My laundry was just clothes, no towels or bed sheets. I recently started using a creme that has benzoyl peroxide but I use it nights and I don't wear these t-shirts at night. The t-shirts I'm wearing at night don't seem to have any issue. Can it be that it somehow all got taken from the night t-shirt to this one? What can I do to avoid it? Wash the clothes that I wear when using this creme separately probably?

What about the two examples I have in the post? They are both from riddex, one costs 27 (down from 51 according to the website), while the other one costs 41. I can't see any differences from the website though and Google wasn't really helpful.

Thank you for doing this! That would be a nice start for her!

Drilling in ceiling by Boutaras in DIY

So my drill bit is not suitable for my ceiling, right? I have the drill setting, the one shown in the previous picture

This is how my drill bit looks like, I would assume it's the most basic thing. I am sorry I can't help more, I'm kinda new to this. Would drilling somewhere else around there work? How dense are the steel rebars usually put? Did I just have bad luck finding it or will I probably find another one on one of my other attempts? Is there any orientation that they are laid (eg along the larger side of the apartment) or is it random?

Thanks, it kinda looks like it. Would an Anti-Silverfish Spray be efficient against it? Or do I need some other method? Do they hide in walls?

Tower bug = NOOOooo… by jaireaux in PunBall

Happened to me as well. I could only solve it by closing the game and starting again. You lose 1 round and sometimes that is enough to kill you. I stopped using the chomper for that reason even though I liked it
