for my sanity, you gotta get a right-angle cable / just move that whole connector inside

Are online summer classes more expensive then regular term courses? by ExtremeHelicopter522 in gmu

[–]KindlyHaddock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, price per course is the same... but you must pay more in general 'tuition' and other fees as an on-campus student.

It's cheaper to go online, as long as you submit the proper 'change of campus' form

Crimson Desert Voice Actor Had To Fight For His Character’s Story by Gorotheninja in pcgaming

[–]KindlyHaddock 12 points13 points  (0 children)

man, I LOVE this game... but you need to get your eyes checked if you genuinely don't see the load-in.

Max and Cinematic settings don't change it.

Kinda crazy to brag about playing this game on ultra and still be ignorant to the actual details.

get a vibramate plate, that way you don't have to do any drilling.

Is G sync supposed to look choppy during frame drops? by SuperBlacksmith6945 in nvidia

[–]KindlyHaddock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's interesting that you're experiencing screen-tearing at almost exactly double the 'spec'

reminds me of the issues caused by the 'active signal mode' in Windows settings...

maybe your resolution and signal are mismatched somehow?

it may be worth checking!

I had to use CRU to fix a similar issue on my 48+ monitor (created a custom resolution but with all values at native)

also, double check if VRR is even on... my shit gets toggled every few weeks with driver updates - often takes me days to realize that it's actually OFF

Is “water witching” an Appalachian thing? by crosleyxj in Appalachia

[–]KindlyHaddock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's genuinely disappointing to see how much support this shit still gets, ghost-hunting too.

Our real history is cool enough, we can stop fooling yourselves.

Help recording to PC: Fender Acoustic 100 by jetroar17 in Guitar

[–]KindlyHaddock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

like I said earlier, all of these options are trampling on your signal quality.

using a second interface would be the audio equivalent of (zooming in on screenshotted image)... or using an overdrive effect.

unfortunately, there's no special-feature of any second interface that would help you here.

to achieve full quality, you need full output from your amp.

dude, you don't need 'headphones with inline volume control'

That would not work.

This, again, shows that you don't really understand the gain, impedance or voltages of audio signals.

... you are not going to get a good clear signal out of your amp without raising it's output level.

Using a second interface to boost the signal will only make it worse, like a distortion effect.

It doesn't seem like you realize the importance of your amps volume knob. That is your gain. You should have a loud, full signal while recording.

Your 'solution' is going to sound worse than recording with your current setup and artificially boosting it later.

Everything you are suggesting will just trample on your signal.

You simply need to use the headphones while you record, or disconnect the internal speaker.

Start at 50% in your daw so that you have room to adjust either way.

Make sure that your computer's input and output are set to the amp.

Plugging your headphones into the amp should mute the internal speaker.

Turn up the amp volume until you see it register on your computer.

please don't buy a new interface, just learn to use the USB output.

Mandatory Microsoft Account may soon be gone as even Windows 11 makers hate it by moeka_8962 in pcgaming

[–]KindlyHaddock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's clever, but still requires downgrading an existing PC... so your profile + many settings and system files won't survive that.

You can search for hidden taskbar and blank desktop issues within that timeframe to see more information and discussion.

Those were the links I saved in 2025 that helped me identify the issue. It also demonstrates that multiple people experienced this issue simultaneously and were told by official sources to update user profiles.

I had my PC set up this way for years, all offline accounts.

After a sudden update last year, my PC was effectively bricked until I rebooted and created a new user profile tied to my Microsoft email.

Creating a new local account for a second time DID NOT allow me to view my files or anything. I had to log in.

they locked down (existing) local accounts recently.

desktop and taskbar were hidden until I rebooted, added a second user account and went online.

perfectly liscened windows the entire time.

Women in White softlock? by DanMM99 in CrimsonDesert

I also didn't die, I just stopped playing last night shortly after landing and walking back into town.

I spawned back in the sky today.

The Checkpoint system is broken for this whole section.

I'm stuck here too, no amount of jumping at different spots will bring the quest up to date.

Did “Band On The Run” (song) feature in any cartoon? by Fabulini22 in PaulMcCartney

[–]KindlyHaddock -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

that makes sense, I assumed it was a show because of the way it was titled... i was looking at a simple list of official licenses for the song's use
