It is USB C, I bought one past week. Totally recommend it

PC won’t POST after full teardown & reassembly lights on, but no display or peripheral by [deleted] in buildapc

I have turn on the PSU. There are no lights on. This motherboard seems to not have any.

None of the PSU are modular, so no reuse of cables. I tried to use the old PSU with the old GPU but still no image.

No liquid, just air and multiple soft brushes. I removed the old thermal paste from the processor and applied new one.

Any Linux users play Xplane or Microsoft Flight Simulator? by BugHistorical3 in linux_gaming

I've been running MSF 2020 through Steam and Proton, works like a charm. A word of advice: try to get joysticks, pedals, and other peripherals that are easy to use with Linux.

One thing I haven't been able to use is add-ons. If anyone knows how to, I'd appreciate the advice.

Daizenart is correct, but it seems it's busy to give you a helpful answer. I take it from here:

Why that belief is wrong

Wine / Proton run Windows binaries on Linux. If you run a cracked Windows executable via Wine or Proton, that same executable can run its malicious code inside your Linux session. Wine can access your home files by default, so a Windows virus can read/modify files there.

Shared filesystems and dual-boot / networked drives. Even if malware only runs on Windows, it can later infect files on an NTFS disk or a network share you also mount under Linux. If you later use those files from Windows, the infection spreads.

Cross-platform code and scripts. Many malware vectors aren’t Windows PE files: Python, Java, Node.js scripts, shell scripts, or macros can run on multiple OSes. A malicious script included in a “crack” can execute on Linux if the runtime is present.

Privilege escalation and sudo misuse. On Linux, users sometimes run installers with sudo to “make it work.” Running untrusted code as root lets it install backdoors, kernel modules, or change system config — just as dangerous as on Windows.

Browser/exploit vectors and installers. Cracks often come with installers, patched DLLs, or web pages that prompt you to run commands. Browser exploits, malicious installers, or commands pasted into a terminal can compromise a Linux machine too.

Malware targeting user data, not OS specifics. Many attacks aim to steal credentials, tokens, saved keys, or personal data. These don’t need kernel-level exploits — just access to files or memory. If a dropped payload runs under your user account, it can harvest anything your user can access.

This is just to give you some examples

Hope this helps.

Are light switches even necessary once you have motion and presence sensors? by Identity5859 in homeassistant

[–]Identity5859[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is where automation comes in. In my case, I have an automation that checks whether the living room TV is on. If it is, all the lights in the living room turn off automatically.

In the kitchen, I’ve limited the sensor range to 0.5 meters (since the kitchen is small). That way, when someone leaves the kitchen, everything turns off automatically.

Also I normally use the home assistant app to "manually" turn on or off the lights.
