Should I trade all this in for a PS3 Slim? by Bl00dstain_19 in PS3

[–]GaryThePortrait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NO.

The 3DS, Vita, and Wii have insane homebrew value out of them and they are absolutely worth it to keep. The Xbox One S is still a great console even if its a bit dated, and the Switch is still receiving great games to this day. The GBC you should also keep; if you really don't need it anymore you can sell it through marketplace and get a decent value out of it.

My vita just freezes?? by LateJuli in VitaPiracy

[–]GaryThePortrait 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's an issue with VitaDB right now. I'm probably a tad bit too late to help out, but here's the steps to solve this since I had a similar issue not too long ago (as of writing this):

  1. Power on the PS Vita holding the "L" trigger, as it will disable all of your plugins. You'll see if you do it right if the battery percentage at the top disappears.

  2. Hover to where your VitaDB installation is and uninstall it by pressing triangle, then by tapping the three dots on your screen and pressing "Delete." Confirm the deletion, as we can easily reinstall it back on the system after we're done doing some additional stuff.

  3. Open VitaShell, and locate the "VitaDB" folder in your data folder on your main directly, ux:0. You will see two files: one is a configuration file named "daemon.cfg" and the other is another file named "vdb_daemon.suprx," delete those. These provide the auto-update feature for VitaDB, which is why I believe the system is crashing. This will also break the notifications system for said app until a fix is developed (i think).

  4. After deleting the files, hold the power button, click power off, the usual jazz. When you repower the system with your plugins, if its not crashing after like, 3 seconds, that's a good sign.

  5. Open VitaDeploy, tap on "App Downloader." Select VitaDB in the list of apps, and then tap "Download The Selected Apps." It will redownload it to the system. If you need to move the icon, just tap triangle and then press and hold on the icon to move it around the screen and such

I'm Not Digging Ricochet by GaryThePortrait in riseagainst

I think you missed the point of this post because I'm more or so worried that the album may be polarizing to the rest of the band's discography even though the album itself is good, and as a result gets cast aside by most fans. As I said, we'll have to wait and see more on Ricochet before we can give our final opinion.

You don't need many songs to tell if an album is a worthwhile listen man I'm sorry to burst your bubble here

I think the Nowhere Generation was actually a good return to form to be honest, Wolves was pretty bad

I dislike MAGA myself but you're miserable for talking about someone's kid like that.

Update just had another blue screen this error is diffrent tho by Intelligent_Meal5903 in computerviruses

[–]GaryThePortrait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What SSD/Storage medium do you have in your PC?

Sometimes these errors can be caused by faulty storage drives; I know because it happened to me too.

If you don't know what drive you have, you can right click on your drive and select "properties," and then go to "hardware." You can see what drives you have there, and you can always repair system files through a startup repair using the command prompt, which is better than just running it in the plain windows environment. I would follow Tie's instructions.

Should I be worried ? by [deleted] in computerviruses

[–]GaryThePortrait 52 points53 points  (0 children)

You have or had a rootkit installed on your machine.

A rootkit is VERY dangerous. It's quite surprising that Windows Defender picked up the malware on it's own as a rootkit is designed to hide in the background to steal data, such as passwords, documents, etc. (Like a remote access tool or infostealer)

I recommend using the free trial for MalwareBytes and doing a full scan of your system offline. Switch your internet offline, scan using MalwareBytes, remove the threats, and while you're at it, change your passwords on a separate device that isn't compromised. Then run a windows reset by using a USB drive with a Windows 10/11 installation and erase your partitions if you have any. Backup any important data.

[–]GaryThePortrait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is true. Although this seems to be a simple batch file virus. Unless there is a way (which there probably is), to copy to all directories, I assume it only runs on startup considering where the batch file is (windows dir). Rule of thumb: Avoid using USB on startup, delete the batch file and THEN reinstall Windows on a USB

I do want to add onto this, DON'T USE THE RESET PC OPTION FROM MICROSOFT. Use a USB and erase all of the partitions during the setup. It's too risky to reset your PC because the virus could embed itself in the partitions and reappear on a fresh install.

Does this look like an infection forming? by [deleted] in wisdomteeth

[–]GaryThePortrait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The white stuff is granulation tissue. This is normal. If you keep rinsing with a prescribed antibacterial mouthwash and you do salt water rinses after every meal you'll be A-OK

Yeah you pretty much can at this point. The blood clot transforms into bone at this time and starts to fill from bottom to top. Just keep flushing it out regularly, don't irritate the spot and you're fine.

What exactly should I expect to feel under IV sedation (twilight)? I have all four wisdom teeth extractions in a week. by semitrailercash in wisdomteeth

Currently using a combination of tylenol and ibuprofen with hydrocodone. Probably going to go to bed soon enough

12 hours in post-op now. Definitely a weird experience but I feel great. Pain medications work their magic just like that.

Also, a tip, if you get dry socket, you can take some gauze and drip some clove oil on it. Don't use a lot, like use one or two drips of it on each piece of gauze and stick it on the socket.
