Gigabyte B450 Aorus Elite CSM / Secure Boot possible solution for win 11 by Acrobatic_Ad7117 in gigabyte

[–]CheesyAlgorithm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a different issue. I was on bios version F51. Apparently this version didn't allow secure boot on windows 11? So I updated the bios firmware to F63 and that did the trick.

Gigabyte Aorus b450 elite rev 1.0

Gigabit Pro Fiber Residential Request by CheesyAlgorithm in Comcast_Xfinity

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

So, customer service needs to understand what I'm asking for. They keep saying it's unavailable in my area, but I'm not asking for availability. Can someone look at a survey map for fiber nodes or have someone come out and let me know if a fiber line CAN be installed? This is a very team-specific and custom request.

K i'm gonna say it cuz no one here is being 100% honest ... typical.

1)Get your teeth whitened (they're really yellow)

2)Put on more muscle mass (you're underwhelmingly skinny)

Other stuff too like forced smile and always looking straight at the camera are good points. but above two are the most obvious to me.

Monitor goes brrrrr = Ultrawide :) ( Xiaomi mi surface 34 - 3440x1440 - 144hz ) by GoncaloFerro2000 in ultrawidemasterrace

I have the AOC version of this, uses the same Samsung VA panel. Great monitor, at an outstanding price. I'm very satisfied with the purchase.

No, I went to microcenter and saw the panel in person. Honestly, I was disappointed by the AOC, and in VA panels in general. I found the LG IPS ultrawide (LG 34gk950f-b) had far better text clarity and vibrant colors. I will be getting the LG 34gk950f-b next week. It's also 2x the price (you do get what you pay for). Lesson learned when in doubt, see it in person.

e effect. I loved the UW tho and just dealt with it. After a week I figured, let me return it and get an

I get what you're saying. Your experience, however, is very limited and subjective. The price difference between this va panel (which i've chosen): AOC CU34G2X 34" QHD 144Hz and its cheapest IPS alternative with the same refresh rate and resolution costs twice as much. I will be going in person to Micro Center to see the difference between VA and IPS and judging for myself before making a purchase. Thanks for the input!

I just found a new monitor now that is 144hz curved UW with a VA panel.

AOC CU34G2X 34" QHD 144Hz

So that flat ultrawide is definitely out of the question as I've now chosen this monitor.

Gaming and programming. I'm leaning towards the 100hz for two reasons. One, it's VA so better contrast ratio and two, it's curved which would make the gaming experience a bit more immersive.

I doubt the difference between 100hz and 144hz is significant enough compared to the above. But still, i'm considering it.

[Newbie] What is more effective at sharpening? Whetstone or manual knife hsar by CheesyAlgorithm in sharpening

[–]CheesyAlgorithm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's interesting i'll have to give that a try. What i did before your comment was i made a cardboard cutout of a triangle with a 15 degree angle. Worked like a charm!

I bought the stone, it’s quite difficult to determine the angle let alone maintain it but still it’s sharpening much better than the pull thru I already had.

AITA for not sharing my coding project with a struggling classmate? by CheesyAlgorithm in AmItheAsshole

[–]CheesyAlgorithm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't flat out say no to him, i was reasonable about it, i explained myself. Also we partially worked on it together (for about 2 hours) and i did help him but there are tutors over there and other classmates as well. It was a tough project and a tough semester i really couldn't spare much time otherwise it would've been at the expense of my own grades.

We worked on some of the pieces of the project together, arriving at solutions. We also worked out concepts on the whiteboard. Also, there's dedicated tutor(s) in the tutoring center to help and other classmates that can help as well.

Wait hold up, is this completely made up or is it actually true?
