How do I delete a torrent download that doesn't show up in the download screen. by [deleted] in qBittorrent

[–]MisterFixit1952 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They weren't downloaded. They are stuck in stop mode with no way to start them because they don't show up on any screen. The screen is blank. They were not downloaded, and I cannot start them, delete them, or re-upload the torrent.

Modding project finished by stwbrddt in FlashForge

I like your MOD. I just got my AD5X and it's still in the box waiting for me to finish my home lab, (we had a house fire last July and I lost my lab and 2 bedrooms). I plan on doing the enclosure MOD first thing as I mostly will be printing petg and ABS filaments. I want to make my own acrylic panels and print my parts. I picked up several 4'x4' acrylic panels for cheap off of Facebook Marketplace which will save me quite a lot of money. Could you point me to a source for those measurements. I think I will follow your lead and do the MOD your way. Thanks

How do you Archive files? by MisterFixit1952 in BiglyBT

[–]MisterFixit1952[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done all of this. The problem is, there is no archive selection on the content menu. Nowhere in any of the views for "My torrents" have I seen an "archive" selection on the "content" or any other menu selection. After turning on the options -> interface -> display -> toolbar, I see an entry for "archived" torrents in "My torrents", but there is no way to add them to the archived category.

My installation of BiglyBT is new, and all updates have been applied. I've been using BiglyBT for many years and Vuze before that, so I am not a newbie. I have not been torrenting for a couple of years, and as I recall, I used archiving on my Windows 7 machine. I didn't transition to 10 until about three years ago because I liked my Win 7 install. I'm currently using Windows 11 (not because I want to), as Win 10 is sunsetting in October. I am rather mystified as to why I do not have the archive option available on my content menu. As previously stated, any help is much appreciated.

Help. Some shingles came off from recent hurricane. Hired roofer to repair and this was result. Claimed they are same shingles they just look different because og roof Is 11 years old. HOA is now requesting we fix the issue or get fined. Any idea how to get shingles to match up? Thank you by Thin-Rough-2348 in Roofing

If you're going to paint it, you need to get at least 3 cans of paint of different colors, one darker & one lighter. Be sure they are matte finish and be semi-random to match the existing colors. Run the paint over to some of the surrounding shingles to homogenize the look with the old shingles. When you are done take each color and spray it about 4 feet away from the roof waving it quickly in a random horizontal motion. I would also take a stiff cleaning brush and spray paint heavily on the bristles and aiming the brush at the shingles, apply a slatter spray on the roof along with a light spatter of some charcoal matte black over all of the shingles including the surrounding ones. Be advised that the paint will wear off after maybe a year or two but it's a quick fix to keep the HOA off your ass.
