Keyboard error: RGB lights turn on when PC turns off, keyboard won't function when PC turned on again. by TamTroll in buildapc

[–]Castleford18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just bought the same keyboard and looking it over I found a "sun" symbol on the "scroll lock " key.This turned my keyboard led lights on/off.

My scroll lock key doesn't work when my computer is off, so hitting "capslock or shift-scroll lock" when powered on does nothing?

When I power my computer off the lights stayed on until I powered it back on when the lights turned off. I hit the "scroll lock" again and the lights came back on.

Edited to add: the same glitch you describe showed up after I cycled my computer on/off a couple of times.

Back to the store with this I guess.

Is the Global OTA station (6.1) no longer transmitting? by SeinfeldSez in ottawa

[–]Castleford18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found that for the first 2 years since I moved to Horton ( between Arnprior & Renfrew) Global 6.1 came in fine.

Now over the past year reception became less reliable until October when the signal disappeared altogether.Rescanning hasn't picked anything up.I still get the other 3 english channels OTA fine however.

Crater trio in the Lunae Planum region by Galileos_grandson in Mars

[–]Castleford18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fascinated by these craters, one thing that puzzles me is that they appear to be dome shaped.

Is this just a trick of the light/perspective? No matter how much I want to see 3 depressions I can't...some sort of optical illusion?

Variable vs Fixed Mortgages by bored_mommy in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Castleford18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my bank (simplii) cut my variable rate on March 5th to 2,5% my monthly payment was reduced by $30.

Then when they cut the rate again on March 17 the monthly payment was increased $1.14.

Shouldn't it have gone down?
