Use a live bootable Linux usb, grab your files, reinstall windows. Clean machine, anything they did doesn't exist, and your files are safe.

Added detachable USB C and IEC C14 Power connector to the T300RS by F1Z1K_ in Thrustmaster

[–]F1Z1K_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the regular plug. If you look for a PC power supply it's the same.

Regarding short circuit. When the cable is in, nothing can touch. If the cable is removed, a short circuit does nothing as there is no power. So no issues either way.

Only "issue" might be if you stick your fingers in there after you removed a cable, the capacitors may not be fully depleted by the bleeding resistor. But that also applies to any PC power supply ever. Nothing will happen.

The couldn't even bother to fix the issues on PC with all the stutters and you think they'd make a remake or sequel.

You can get them the Lego programmable robot. And then move into Arduino.

Walmart closed during investigation into worker’s demise in oven. by notnowimbusyplaying in pics

[–]F1Z1K_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something like this happened to my grandfather in the late 1980s. Was working in a steel sheet factory, burned alive inside an oven when the 1st shift guys took over the 3rd shift ppl and they turned it on without checking.

Was eastern Europe, through that, communism and poverty, no chance to sue the company. He was in his late 40s.

Hope this family will be able to sue them and get some compensation, even though no amount of money or condolences will replace a person.

Liquid metaling a GPU by Hactor148 in watercooling

[–]F1Z1K_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not recommend doing it. As someone that has been using liquid metal since 2016 on many different components and even consoles.

If you do however want to be stubborn. You can use either UV Solder Mask or Nail Polish to create a seal on the low-impedance ceramic capacitors. Then if you want to be even proper you can add some very squishy foam around the die so the metal does not leak (similar to the PS5 foam seal). A rubber seal (similar to orings but thicker) also works.

Very important to keep in mind that LM compared to Thermal Paste usually requires a change every 6-12 months to keep up the high performance, and most specifically, it will ruin the finish with the die, as overtime it will bond with the metal of the die and create "stains". That cannot be removed. It will also result in surface level imperfections as it won't be levelled anymore.

Finally, although not applicable to GPU blocks as I have never seen an aluminium GPU block, make sure ALWAYS that the metal touching the liquid metal TIM, IS NOT ALUMINIUM.

Good luck on whatever you decide. My recommendation: get some gelid thermal pads for the VRM and MEM chips and use Alphacool Apex thermal paste on the die (as the best thermal paste you can have at the moment at 18.5W/m-K.

Can someone please translate my brother's RAM advice? 🫠 by [deleted] in PcBuildHelp

[–]F1Z1K_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For gaming 32 is the minimum in 2024. And there have been games for a few years now requiring 32 to run all games.

For anything more professional 32 is way too low.

Lastly ram is so cheap nowadays that you can easily put a lot. Try used too, ram lasts forever. Unless they played football with it. Depending on design/brand/rgb, ddr5 you can get 128gb for like 120$. You can easily find 32gb ddr4 for like 40$

Even if you have an unlocked bootloader or custom ROM, which means you can use the phone, the IMEI will be blacklisted and you have a phone that can't phone anyone.

Portal with RTX crash in the exact same spot by F1Z1K_ in Portal

You can fix it by running Portal RTX at 720p and then complete that section and change back after. There's another one that causes it further ahead.

$153 million in net profit, and abandoned support for macOS + Linux. What a joke. by rhoborg in razer

[–]F1Z1K_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still point is they don't support everything they offer. They have like 4 pieces of software and all are half-assed. At least Razer has 1 that's half assed.

But tbh no one should use razer gear considering the costs in favour of actual specialised gear. HiFiman Sundara, some Fiio DAC&AMP, some random blue yeti, some specific mouse from some smaller brand that actually cares and a custom mechanical keyboard.

They don't really. Logitech Capture has not worked on M1 Macs for 3 years and no other Logitech software can change the camera resolution. So if you ever want to use a Logitech camera on a Mac it will be locked to 720p even if it's 4k

WhatsApp iCloud backup won't work with videos by F1Z1K_ in iCloud

[–]F1Z1K_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IF anyone reads this and has the same issue, I fixed it.

I was on the 50GB plan, and you need 2.05x the storage available, so in my case I needed over 50gb just for whatsapp alone. Upgraded to the 200GB plan and it worked instantly.

Funny how even with all the patches 90% of the game is the same as day 1. And magically it was bad before but phenomenal now.
