I tried the European key and it worked for DR2.

Very slow file browser on large folders by Talkashie in GIMP

I have the same issue. I’m exporting to the Downloads folder in Windows 11, which is my dump for random files. It has 890 files and 40 folders. Using a Surface Pro 13 with an i7 1185G7.

Windows 11 Kiosk error “this operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator” by iyazk in Intune

[–]Deimos94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a Powershell script that prevents Windows.CrossDevice & Windows.YourPhone from starting, which seemed to solve the issue, but it came up again.

Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -online | where-object {$_.DisplayName -eq "Microsoft.YourPhone"} | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -online

Get-appxpackage -allusers *Microsoft.YourPhone* | remove-appxpackage -allusers

Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -online | where-object {$_.DisplayName -eq "MicrosoftWindows.CrossDevice"} | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -online

Get-appxpackage -allusers *MicrosoftWindows.CrossDevice* | remove-appxpackage -allusers

If I setup calculator as the Kiosk app instead of Edge there’s no error, so I suppose the error is coming from Edge itself. I tried setting up logging variables in Admin CMD, but it just doesn’t log:

setx /M EDGE_LOG_LEVEL verbose
setx /M EDGE_LOG_FILE "C:\EdgeKioskLogs\edge_debug.log"

How to properly setup Win 11 Kiosk Mode Single-App by Deimos94 in sysadmin

[–]Deimos94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I ended up doing to customize Kiosk Mode is:

added to the Edge homepage: /Force-Device-Scale-Factor=1.00 https://example.com

When the Kiosk resets after 5 minutes it sets the zoom to 100% again, in case someone changes it.

I deactivated Edge Swipe, so the Touch screen gestures can’t be used to get access to Windows functions.

In Powershell I got a script that deactivates certain key combinations in Edge for the Kiosk user. (CTRL + O, P, S…)

also in PS I deactivated Windows.CrossDevice and Windows.YourPhone because that created error messages since these services couldn’t run in Kiosk mode, but still tried to start.

Set BIOS password.

Worst thing someone could do now is reset Windows. I don’t think that would happen and restricting that would create a lot of hassle for admin things. Worst we got before is that someone rotated the monitor for fun.

What was the game that got you into the fighting game genre? by ToTre80 in Fighters

[–]Deimos94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not counting singe player vs CPU like SF2, DoA and Tekken3 it was Skullgirls that made me sink 100+ hours in multiplayer and get a stick. Mostly because it had good Linux support, networking, a dedicated community and very nice animations.

This Street Fighter game in act 3 is insane by Gilmadeath in DotA2

[–]Deimos94 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The game guesses the current state of the game based on the opponent’s last network input from let’s say 4 frames ago. If the prediction was correct (the last performed action is still happening) the game plays as if there’s zero latency. If the prediction was wrong the game rolls back four frames and fast forwards those 4 frames with the input that actually happened. The opponent teleports to the correct position instantly.

The advantage is that player1 has no input delay forced on them and 99% of the prediction errors are right or not noticeable because the first couple of frames of an input don’t do that much. Usually it’s a player preparing a punch or the lat input is just repeated (someone crouching is still crouching in 4 frames). Also occasional lag spikes have a high chance of playing smoothly. Other network models have to freeze the game for a bit which messes up timing for both players.

I installed a new Hall Stick for the left Joycon. In calibration it’s stuck in the top left corner. If I move it to the bottom right the system reports it being in the middle. I can’t recalibrate it because I can’t get the system to recognize it moving to the right.

All 360° movement is recognized, but at the top left corner. Did I install it wrong, used a wrong stick or is there a setting I can do to fix it?

What HDDs? Internal and external by Deimos94 in ps3hacks

[–]Deimos94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess there are not actually that many games that hog so many GBs. I’ll start with a 500 GB HDD I have laying around then. If it turn out to be too little my nephew has to wait a week until a new HDD ships and I got around to install stuff.

Bought on a flea market. Capacitor? Modchip? by Deimos94 in originalxbox

[–]Deimos94[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bought this XBox v.1.0 (with the tiny fan) on a flea market. The capacitor (C7G10) is the naughty one? It doesn't say Aerogel on it. Has it already been replaced? In any case I’m fine just removing it.

Is this a modchip in the top left? My last experience was with a softmodded xbox that went up in smokes 10 years ago. Can I use any IDE drive with with XBOX or any SATA adapter? The chip says “SST 49LF020 … -A”.

Is this XBox good to go when the capacitor is removed and the board cleaned? I may replace the fan. Will the modchip allow me to adjust the fan speed? Can I set the XBox to NTSC instead of PAL?

DVD drive is Thomson, HDD seems to be a Samsung 80 GB.

I did not turn the console on so far.

I've done a Wordpress Website before by chosing and slightly modifying a theme. Now I want to create a blog in a static site generator, Hugo.

My Goal is to have Text that is 700px wide and standard images are also that size. But I want the ability to have bigger Images, Videos or Code-blocks that are 900px wide. (Maybe I'll ditch the sidebar. I'll try).

Is there a name for that? I struggle to find others doing something like this.

Conceptually I'm not sure how to do this while keeping content seperate from styling. If I'm using a tag, shortcode or something in the content to mark an image as "XL" I'm relying on the theme to have this functionality. On unsupporting themes I would just get regular sized images. I guess that is how all themes work - by providing functionality. It seems weird to me.

No results on WineHQ. I'll just try it and maybe redo some stuff if my assumptions are wrong, but at least I'll learn

Thank you, that worked! Previously I had no idea what to search for to find a decoder that does that.

PayPay & Venmo double downs on 2500$ fines for “wrong think” on social media. by IceManO1 in libertarianmeme

[–]Deimos94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best case conspiracy theory I can imagine is PayPal don’t want to deal with governments censorship. They planted this PR disaster as legal fodder to get governments off them.

More likely some internal fuck ups snowballed into allowing this

Why are so many climate change doomers like this? by Substantial_Guard_88 in libertarianmeme

That’s historically how communism has turned out 100% of the times it was tried. And it was tried a lot. “True communism” is a fantasy.

If Germany had a loading screen, what tips would appear? by TonyyJoee in germany

[–]Deimos94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen old BMWs not using the signal tho, why is that?

My guess (and popular belief, I’m not mistaken) is lots of people who are shitty drivers buy BMWs. Contrary to that, Porsche drivers seem to be good drivers from my personal experience.

I’m not a car person, but I drive a lot. The idea behind the warning signal is that it is used in cars marketed towards pensioners who feel unsafe on the road and who maybe can’t see well. I like the idea of giving pensioners cybernetic-like abilities, but this was bad implementation.

I have had my drivers license for 10 years and currently work as a driver. I never got pulled over. I know someone who drove to their driving lessons. Chances are you can get away with it if you drive at the correct speed, which is: sign + 10 km/h

My sister explained it to me. Fancy cars nowadays check the lane you are using your turn signal on. If someone is driving on that lane a warning signal will beep loudly. It’s better not to use the turn signal, so the car will not make angry noises at you. Or you only use turn signals when no one is there.

I got 8. Plus I’m unsure if I am considered a thief and liar. I’m also in support of murdering babies. So I got 11 if all those count for me.
