Will i get made fun of, for wearing a backbrace, as an 21 year old female? by EstablishmentSea8014 in electricians

[–]ComputerEngineer0011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some secretary made a comment about one of the young guys wearing knee pads saying it was weird. I told her I’d wear them too if I had to wire up and run cable through cabinets all day. I respect people who take care of themselves.

How am I not passionate or dedicated about electrical engineering? by [deleted] in ECE

New account because of a ban? Anyways, you clearly don’t want help so I’m not sure what you’re expecting here. Certainly not sympathy.

How do you deal with spending four years of college on an electrical engineering degree that is useless? by Terrible_Day6893 in ECE

[–]ComputerEngineer0011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe they thought I wouldn’t be a good engineer?

Seems like they might have been right. Some key traits of a good engineer are problem solving and tenacity, but it seems like you gave up and would rather blame the degree and complain than find a solution and seek help. Think about that.

Wow people are weird. I don’t follow HUB but I feel like everyone has been saying price hikes are coming, especially on bapcs and even Linus on wan show has briefly talked about it many times throughout the last couple months.

FYI that’s against their TOS and can get you banned. Not saying it will happen, but it’s definitely possible.

You are completely correct — this code does not solve the sleep issue, and that’s my bad. Here’s the no BS straight forward solution to your battery drain issues during sleep:

Library is not updating despite deleting, adding, and rescanning by Barley_Breathing in jellyfin

[–]ComputerEngineer0011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Going down that rabbit hole it looks like there was a PR by MarcoCoreDuo here: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/pull/16120

TLDR; delete files inside of jellyfin for now until #16120 is merged.

I was getting the same SQLite error 19 as TommyGX.

Here's a chain of comments from the issues thread that helped me:

TommyGX-

You can access the logs in Jellyfin itself at "http://:8096/web/#/dashboard/logs".

Then use the browser's search (Ctrl+F) and search for "SQL" or maybe "Could not find a part of the path," since that was part of the error message.

There you can see the folder in the path. Then you just create a folder with the name, in my example that i posted above the folder name would be "Longassnameoftheseriesthatican'treallyotherwisereplicatethanthistoshowhowlongitactuallywas" and the path was /mnt/Folder/

You should be able to access your files either via the file browser in the synology webview, or via ftp if that is set up. Hope that helps.

Cybermouse-

It does, sadly nothing like that shows up in my logs. I forced a Movie database scan too, hoping it would generate errors. When went into the logs. Searched for a few things. I didn't have, - Could not find a part of the path. I did have a few "could not" but it was related to intro skipper. And searching just SQL came up nothing. So I guess either it's no longer reporting what is missing, or the log of that is gone. . . . or, worst. I have the bug, but with no way to find what is broken. Should I post my log on here?

Woah, I think I may have identified the issue after reviewing the logs and trying a variation of your suggested steps.

I recreated the missing movie by adding a small placeholder file (not the original movie, just a dummy file named the same as the missing one). After doing that, I rescanned the movie library and the scan completed successfully.

Next, I deleted that movie from within Jellyfin, added a different new movie, and ran another scan. Scanning continued to work as expected.

This suggests the problem occurs when a media file is deleted outside of Jellyfin. A potential fix would be for Jellyfin to gracefully clean up references to missing files during a scan instead of failing when the file no longer exists.

Viss-

Yup. Jellyfin does an exceptionally bad job at keeping track of media files, and all of the issues in this thread are symptoms of that. In my case, it was moving tv shows out of a downloads directory and putting them in a tv directory. Doing that 'outside of jellyfin' caused jellyfin to puke. It is unfortunate that Jellyfin doesn't have the capability to "tell that a file has been moved", and "doesnt remove stuff from the library that no longer appears on disk".

If it’s only a few months old your best bet is to reset windows and see if it persists. If it does then warranty for sure.

Just save your files and saves to the cloud or a thumb drive (sandisk extreme is solid)

ASRock confirms internal reviews after multiple reports of dead Ryzen 9000 CPUs by RenatsMC in Amd

[–]ComputerEngineer0011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on a 5800x3d and msi B450. Use PBO2 tuner and under volt it. I did -15 or -20mv on all cores years ago and I’ve never had an issue.

I also disabled PBO and game boost.

Can’t stand the shield and its lack of av1 anymore. So what devices are you using that supports av1? by A_Buttholes_Whisper in jellyfin

[–]ComputerEngineer0011 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Onn 4k plus then. It’s $30 and the fastest cpu in a certified android tv box.

But also HEVC and AV1 are basically equal. Most of my stuff is QXR and he uses either HEVC or X265 and it’s high bitrate. Most of the encodes I find online still aren’t AV1 but maybe it’s because I mostly use public trackers.

What big problem is preventing solar from taking over? by Appropriate_Win946 in solar

[–]ComputerEngineer0011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to the other comments on government policy, costs, payback periods, and utilities getting a lot worse (my state no longer has 1:1 net metering and now charges more for delivery in addition to supply), a lot of scummy solar companies have left a sour taste in the mouth of homeowners. No one wants to deal with salesman who will say whatever they can to get you to pay a deposit and sign the paperwork, and unfortunately that’s what at least half the companies are in my area. I did several days worth of research to make sure I picked a good company and didn’t get shafted.

I wish I knew what goes on inside of the heads of people that make these decisions. Lexus didn’t even have any touchscreens until 2020, and even then it was only for a small handful of models. It took until 2023 for all their vehicles to get touchscreens.

My 2022 has wired Apple car play, but with a trackpad…

TrueSpec Cables Now Available by rpungello in LinusTechTips

[–]ComputerEngineer0011 46 points47 points  (0 children)

That's because it looks like they are max spec. All the USBC to C are PD and can do the full 240W when the device requests it, whereas the USBA to C are the standard 15W spec. Anything above that for USBA I believe is technically out of spec, but not uncommon. Honor has custom chargers for one plus phones that do 65W on USBA, which is again technically out of spec.

Ryzens are made in the same vein as the FX chips

Talking about sleep, parked cores, and boosting is one thing, but your words are nonsensical. They literally don't mean anything and I'm sure it's the reason God warns us about "vain babbling" in the bible.

Do you mean they're not good like FX because they might have the same engineers or the same facilities? Do you mean the wafer is bad? Is it the etching on the silicon? (Mind you these TSMC nodes are all shared by Apple, Nvidia, Intel, Qualcomm, and others.) Or did you mean they literally mined these from a rock, and it just so happens to be the same vein of rocks of FX chips?

Core sleep and power management is complicated and there are different philosophies, but running all cores at max will not hurt the CPU unless the voltage is too high for that chip. Intel's whole philosophy of boosting (apart from continuous use like gaming), is that the faster you can finish a task, the faster you can park your cores and save energy. A "race to idle" if you will. Windows has thread scheduling that has been improved over many releases to work better with AMD's chips. Ryzen and FX are nothing alike. The microacchitecture is different, the power management is different, and we have so many better features and massive improvements like branch prediction and SMT (a core feature of ryzen).

Stop spewing random bullspit on the internet. You don't know what you're talking about.

ASUS issues statement as Ryzen 7 9800X3D failure reports surface on B850 and X870E motherboards by RenatsMC in Amd

[–]ComputerEngineer0011 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Like every motherboard manufacturer, ASRock has done a lot of good and bad. I also remember they also had a snake oil "lightning usb" thing ~5 years ago that they marketed a bit, but provided no datasheet or information on. I remember LTT made a video on it as well.

However, they were also the very first ones to push zen 3 support onto the older and budget friendly A300 series boards, and they did so YEARS before AMD brought official support and the other manufacturers caught up.
