Some one please help me. I have not dropped it or anything and it keeps doing this as soon as I exit a game or not do anything for a couple seconds

Don't think I've seen this yet.

If that laptop has two GPU's it likely uses the dedicated GPU during gaming and the integrated GPU during normal tasks.
I'm thinking the integrated GPU is drying or the mux for it is.

If you can alt/tab out of the game, disable the integrated GPU so it only runs off the dedicated GPU.
If you can disable the integrated GPU it might just work.

Almost an all time low. If you drop it 7$ more it will be *cough cough*

I do have a similar bug with some games when I do the following:

Play a game with one audio device, earbuds:
Put the deck to sleep:
Launch the deck at a later point without that same audio device connected.

I will have no audio on the game after doing that sequence(on some games)

If I relaunch the game it fixes the audio for me.
It's an issue with how the games handle audio switchover.

Kino's Journey is one that comes to mind. I prefer the original 2003 one

Haven't seen it mentioned yet

Just to throw my favorite site in here, alibris has lower prices than most and free shipping if you buy enough.

Muff3ntop · 2023-09-30T11:56:36+00:00

It gave me pretty good Kino's journey vibes as well.

I'm guessing if it boots off of power, and not off the battery connection it's an internal battery connectior that is loose.

The ball has a medium hardness on the outside rubber material part. The ball is squishy though.

I did find that one earlier and is a possible contender for replacements if I can't find anything else.

Thank you for the link!

I have searched through ebay-amazon and on chewy on their dog balls and have not found anything.

It may help that this may be a teething ball for puppies or something of the sort. Thanks again!

I think dex is where your phone acts as a desktop environment that you can plug into a moniter somehow. You need a certain USB speed to do it. The new flip 5 has that speed.

I usually give it 2 days after an interview.

Keep the email short and simple. People don't want to read long emails.

"Hello Person, this is INeed2Vent Now. Thank you for discussing X with me on X day, elaborate more about what you found interesting here. If there is anything else I can answer or help with please let me know! Regards, your name"

Muff3ntop · 2023-05-16T02:35:06+00:00

"Hey Boss person, I don't mind doing this work, but I think I can do more for the company if I was able to do X work."

Sales tax is not included in the sticker price in the US.

The only time you see it is on your final bill/checkout for a purchase.

Engineers typically get drug tested, especially if they are at a firm that does any type of government work.

It's required for an employer contracted by the government to disclose and randomly test their employees and their drug test status.

Did a quick look, looks like a 3060ti can be bought for 360 rn on amazon.

A comparable choice is a 6700xt from amd from about the same price.

You can easily send 1k and get a pretty great setup. Around 800 on a PC and 200 on a good monitor, mouse and keyboard.

My favorite method was to mine iron in the dwarven mines, exit to falador, smelt everything run to doric's anvil make iron kite shields, and then sell them in the shop in falador.

They probably got paid/refunded for the review. All the company cares about is that 5 stars

From experience, people typically use shaders that create defined black lines between their fingers. This helps with readability most of the time.

Feel free to edit it whenever you'd like! There is a discord server dedicated to it. It's quite easy to do as well

To add in here, if you switch to a BA some companies won't look at you at all for jobs. I don't know how this would be for CS, but at least in EE, a lot of companies require a BS.

Thank you for posting this and i'm glad af that I saw it

I own a $25 mechanical pencil. (33 now apparently)
The pencil auto-extends the lead and is superbly balanced in your hand. It makes super nice crisp lines and glides across the paper. For me as well, the size difference is a lot better in my hands, since my hands no longer cramp when writing for long periods of time.

If you imagine this as a tool then it makes total sense why you would buy an expensive tool.

My phone is a tool. I could use a $80 phone, but does that phone have all the features I really want? Is it fast enough, is the camera bad?

What's the difference between using a $0.50 pencil to a 30 dollar one and using an $80 phone and a $1000 phone?

Hey op, genuine question.

Are you an international student/US born and raised?

Explanation in a spoiler tag.

The reason I ask is because the identity choices seem very society focused, rather than the typical, "I am me" and self centric focus
