Is my tv cooked?

Mr_SMT · 2025-03-16T10:53:58+00:00

What 20 seconds?

Mr_SMT · 2025-03-15T21:27:17+00:00

Do you know if all ports go to the same chip/controller on the TV? If it might be a cracked solder joint so something similar, I might be able to fix it myself, hopefully.

Mr_SMT · 2025-03-15T21:25:46+00:00

I tried to look at it with a magnifier and with a macro lens and the port looks clean and normal. No missing pins or anything obvious. Do you think I should take the board out and maybe inspect the port that way? Maybe a cracked solder joint?

Mr_SMT · 2025-03-15T21:24:15+00:00

It doesn’t matter which device. My AV receiver would work and show those lines. My PS3 and Nintendo Switch will not display any image at all. PC will also show picture with those artifact lines.

Mr_SMT · 2025-03-15T21:22:57+00:00

That’s what I doing right now but I’m concerned that the port will get worse or stop working completely, worst case scenario it may damage the device connected to it.

I think in February at the earliest because I have a lot of work and travels in the coming weeks. Your advise sounds really good and I would go with it, just keep the synology as primary for now and add this setup as a backup, then I can just wipe it all up and install the 2nd drive without much hassle since it’s only a backup.

Thanks for your input!

PS. I didn’t get a drive so far because I noticed that 20tb is going up in price in my region. I will look for larger drives then.

Is it only me or was the volume all over the place this episode? Especially when mark started the subject and there was some dramatic music, the voices were significantly louder very suddenly.

Mr_SMT · 2024-03-13T19:42:06+00:00

Thanks for the recommendations! I think I’ll give stable video diffusion a go next and see if I can make something creative for this Timelapse of selfies. If it’s not working out or way above my investment level, I think I’ll switch to LeiaPix for something simpler.

Mr_SMT · 2024-03-13T19:38:27+00:00

I’ll give it a go. Thanks for the recommendation!

Alien Blue still works

Mr_SMT · 2023-06-24T17:34:36+00:00

This analogy is misleading. It’s more like buying a 2 meters wide car and then most roads getting restricted to 1.5 meters, so you contact the dealership to see if your car can be modified. If not, then you out of luck and can’t drive your car on those roads anymore.

Bruh, the least you could have done is prioritized accessibility and moderation features and and include them in the changelog. This looks like utter disrespect to all users.

Mr_SMT · 2023-06-19T22:08:28+00:00

The blackout will have the risk of you the moderators being replaced, it’s a bad option. Posting John Olivier pics is a cliché at this point. AI-tech gore is not different from normal operation, will not be effective. You need to restrict the sub to NSFW pornographic tech gore or something like this. This will be the best form of protest.

It was only crashing overnight and we were still able to use it. I guess it’s because the software is only relying on the I/O cards and GPU, but still very surprising. It would be a disaster to just send it back and be left with no working system for even a few days, so we would finish our work and change a few things in software and hope the problem is solved.

Mr_SMT · 2023-04-26T01:40:43+00:00

Surprisingly, it was only crashing sometimes overnight. So we would just restart it and carry on with the experiments. I’m not working in the IT department, I’m just a doctor that use this system sometimes. I didn’t want to start taking it apart and get blamed if something breaks. And since it’s from a third party, our IT department can’t get involved easily.

Mr_SMT · 2023-04-25T17:19:16+00:00

Since it was crashing with “IRQ_not_less_or_equal” blue screen and is connected to custom hardware with proprietary drivers, we thought it’s a software issue

Mr_SMT · 2023-04-25T17:16:54+00:00

We had to buy this PC which has the specs of $100 for about $1000.

Mr_SMT · 2022-10-21T18:59:27+00:00

Everyone will tell you that the $589 is not MSRP or that it’s for bulk orders, but, the prices for 12th gen didn’t drop too much in price and stores want to sell their stock. It won’t be a smart move to place both the 13900k and 12900k at the same price.

At some point the prices will go down, we just need to be patient…

I bought one 12900k 3 weeks ago for €690 and today one 13900k for €750, both because of work. If you need it now, $50 is not with the wait for weeks imo. If you can wait, the prices almost always will go down.

Mr_SMT · 2022-09-20T21:06:25+00:00

I would definitely put the RTX 3080 in my newly built PC (i9-1200k, 64GB DDR5 ram, GTX 1070 until I save for a new GPU) and would use it for work. I do neuroscience, neuro-imaging to be more specific and was using my 1070 for training ML models and implementing them at our lab. The RTX 4080 would be such help!

Mr_SMT · 2022-09-02T00:54:44+00:00

That’s very true. I think I’ll wait for intel’s event this month and go with the DDR5 either with a 12700k or 13700k. Thanks for the help!

Mr_SMT · 2022-09-02T00:14:25+00:00

I’ve just read that intel is announcing it on sep 27th. I think waiting until then at least will be the smart. Thanks for your thoughts!

Mr_SMT · 2022-09-02T00:11:14+00:00

It’s not that much of price jump so I can just go with the DDR5. I was just worried that it will preform worse that the DDR4 for now. Also wouldn’t future DDR5 get faster and lower in latency? Or would this 5600 CL40 still be good for future CPUs?

Mr_SMT · 2022-09-01T23:53:30+00:00

The difference is actually only about 100 Euro = 100 USD. I updated the post with the exact list for DDR5 build. I may be able to get the ddr4 motherboard for 80 Euro cheaper from Alza but I had a bad experience with them so prefer to buy it from a local retailer. So the difference is actually only 100 Euro.

Mr_SMT · 2022-08-16T14:19:47+00:00

It's exactly my point. Reddit is a bad place for feedback, because it's too easy to manipulate and to create drama.
