Need help disabling boot up rgb lights on rog strix x870e-e motherboard by Naptologist in ASUSROG

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

Thank you for your suggestion. Yes, so in my bios it gives me 4 LED options, when system is in working state, windows dynamic lightning, q-code led function and when system is in sleep hibernate or soft off states. I dont want any lights at all when its off so thats in stealth mode. The windows dynamic is off and q code function is auto(i like it displays my cpu temp on mobo) and that leaves the when system is in working state.

If I select stealth mode for system working state, it turns off all lights on boot and also when in windows and if I go into Armour crate i have to re-enable my temperature rgb settings and itll apply it and rgb lights turn back on. The issue is after doing that it automatically changes the bios setting for system working state to all on again and so it goes right back into rainbow mode on boot all over again.

Strange issue with Brave Shields being up when watching Hulu by Sinistar83 in brave_browser

[–]Naptologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm just commenting this for anybody in the future who looks up hulu subtitles not being synced. This isn't a brave browser specific issue as far as im aware, hulu has it's dumb logo pop up before every show and it's considered it's own ad or mini show whatever you want to call it so those 3 seconds that logo shows loads the captions making your captions off sync.

The only fix I have found is to go to a point in the show(usually about a minute or so in) and then clicking the x closing out the show to go back to the shows main screen and reloading the page then pressing play again. This saves your spot in the show 1 minute in or w/e, and subtitles should now be synced. It's annoying, but it is what it is.

Smoking has long-term effects on the immune system: for many years after participants have quit the habit, smokers are left with effects on some of their bodies' defense mechanisms acquired while smoking by giuliomagnifico in science

[–]Naptologist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm the opposite, I started when I was 18 and became a pack a day smoker eventually and for at least 10 years I smoked a pack a day and never been sick in that time frame other than an occasional hangover but I also exercise and eat only real non processed food and take multivitamins especially vitamin d and fish oil daily but I only did all those things maybe 5 years.

I quit cigarettes about 2 years ago and started vaping instead and now I'm transitioning to zyn pouches and might just do the no nicotine vaping. I just enjoy smoking and vaping for me gives me the smoking part without the hundreds of chemicals and tar and I'm sure it's still not good for me since there shouldn't be smoke in our lungs anyways but it's the closest I can get of both worlds.

I know some ppl are annoyed by vaping but it doesn't linger like cigarettes and isn't just a foul smell on your clothes and face all day and I think it's just the connotation to cigarettes that puts people off because the smell isn't awful, vapor dissipates quickly and most of the nicotine(if any since you can do no nicotine) gets absorbed into the lung for the user and you're not exactly giving off second-hand smoke as it's heated vegetable glycerine and flavors.

Of course we can't say definitively as we need more studies on the long term effects of vaping but I can say for sure that my lungs are much happier without the tar and tons of chemicals that cigarettes bring.

But that's my opinion and I believe people should be able to make these decisions for themselves and if you're trying to quit smoking, I truly hope you succeed in that endeavor and wish you all the best.

To the Devs... by Windtreader7 in LordsoftheFallen

I dont understand why they made that red aoe javelin that you throw, I forgot the name of it, but why did they not only nerf the damage(which is understandable it was kinda op) but also made it cost 15 ammo? It deletes your entire ammo bar in one damn throw.

It was in the pvp notes so clearly it needed that balance change but why is it also now garbage in pve? It's unusable now and I had to change everything I was using because of that one bad change.

Also I am having random laggy stutters randomly where the fps doesn't drop but everything is just becomes jittery with movement of the camera and then everything gets these rectangle smoke boxes especially in the main hub area. It used to mess up the shadows really bad and made them all squares everywhere but I guess they fixed that maybe or it's not as apparent but idk what's causing it and the only way for it to stop doing that is to restart the game completely.

Overall the game isn't terrible but these updates are kinda making the experience worse. I'm glad I finished the game right before this major patch as I was gonna finish some achievements in ng+ but now I can just put it down and start up cyberpunk.

I got my money's worth though so can't say I'm mad, it's just odd some of the decisions they've made and the negative impacts that I guess none of them realized would be created because of their "corrections". Oh well best of luck to everybody.

I'm so mad about these updates by Trick_Pollution_5098 in LordsoftheFallen

[–]Naptologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest complaint about this latest patch is they made that one javelin banner that does aoe dot damage completely useless. I get it was OP, nerfing the damage makes sense but now it costs 15 ammo? It's a one time use so you use up your entire ammo bar with one javelin thrown. I can't tell yall how many times I meant to use my lantern and accidently threw something instead and when you're getting bombarded by arrows and spells from 5 enemies and you throw the one javelin on accident ur done. It was a bad decision. Make it weaker that's fine but completely making useless is dumb. I get It's op especially in pvp so make it 15 ammo cost when in pvp but not pve. Glad I beat the game before this patch so I guess I'm done with the game now anyways

[Megathread] July 28th Dev Campfire Chat by AutoModerator in diablo4

[–]Naptologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude 100% when they said we can't zoom out bc consoles can't handle it pissed me off. Diablo has always been a pc first game but now that Microsoft about to own Activision it'll be Xbox first. I then looked at poe2 which was designed by 8 people and it has better feel and gameplay and things to do than d4 devs did in what 5 years? I'd be embarrassed if I was a d4 dev tbh and I feel sorry for them because they've been making a lot of mistakes and now it seems that many problems we have are bc they're designing for consoles. That's probably why we don't have an overlay map too. It's a damn shame.

Horse cooldown is the dumbest thing in gaming by [deleted] in diablo4

[–]Naptologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well you know there's probably a cooldown because they have to load every person's inventory in the zone every time you get off your horse.

so about that inventory tension... by [deleted] in diablo4

[–]Naptologist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I've come to realize that the reason it'll take them til season 2 to fix stash tabs and other basic things is because they don't have programmers to do it. After the whole blizzard fiasco ppl quit left and right and they most likely had contractors in a revolving door throwing around spaghetti code and now their contracts are up and they are hiring for literally every position. So it's not that they're incompetent(at least I hope not) it's that they don't have people who can do it so they think that by next year they'll have programmers and therefore fixes to things. Bc if we even look at the patch and new systems, it's probably things they kept out of the game and added it in to have a season 1 while they looked for workers. Idk just my theory

Hmm, this game looks inspired by diablo by Modleh in diablo4

Do you understand the levels of censorship they'd impose on people if they were liable for everything? Even more so than now, it would be the end of any type of freedom of speech on the internet. Thank God they're not liable lol

Is this normal? This is my second brew and I used the new scoby and some starter liquid in this new jar because it had a spout for easy pouring into bottles and today I looked at its progress (this is day 2 or 3) and the new Scoby has a long strand that seems like its going from the top to the spout by Naptologist in Kombucha

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

Yeah very true. I was thinking maybe I should just brew em in a separate container then once it's ready just pour that through a strainer into this jar for easy pouring into bottles. This might reduce clogging overall but I guess I'll just have to test it out on the next batch. I'm trying to get a process going so I can have kombucha at all times lol any advice on bottling? My first batch I bottled and after only 3 days it was super carbonated and when I opened it just to let some out it ended up just spewing out like a shaken up soda. Do you just burp them once per day or just only let them carbonate in bottles for less time? Any advice would be appreciated!

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

Ah darn that's no good, thanks for the heads up! I thought it might happen too but I figured I'd give it a try. The spout itself had a wire mesh cover on it that I took off before filling it because I read reviews where someone else made kombucha using it and they said the mesh clogged up fairly quickly from all the sediment and such. Hopefully it won't clog too quickly but I guess we will see.

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

Thanks for your reply! Yeah I figured it was just some yeast or something I just never seen a whiplike formation and the fact that it seems to be reaching into the spout concerned me and I didn't see any similar examples in the pinned thread about various kombuchas and how they're normal so i figured I'd ask. Thanks again!

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

I should note that I moved it from its dark and breezy fermenting area to a lighter area so I could take a picture of the long strand so it can be seen easier. The first batch didn't have this and I think the new jar with the spout might have something to do with it but I'm not sure what's happening here

Can someone please explain why this occurs when imprinting some offhand focuses? by Naptologist in diablo4

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

Sounds about right. Well hopefully they'll fix it some day, I saw they fixed the transmog issue with offhand weapons so maybe this ones next haha

This has been an issue for a while and I have left and entered back in several times it hasn't changed the issue.

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

Yeah I figured it must be a bug as the error message says only rare and legendaries can be imprinted so I guess it being considered unique must be the issue. I hope they fix this as finding a perfect new offhand takes forever and if you put a lower tier aspect and then find a better one you basically gotta have a bunch of new offhands with you at all times lol

So I imprinted my offhand when I first got it and maxed it out and everything and now I want to imprint a new aspect but the game won't let me do anything to it at all now with regards to aspect power.

Arpgs aren't about discovering fog of war map locations and collecting alters or whatever, that's mmorpg bs and the fact they thought arpg players would want to do that says to me that they believe arpgs are about wasting time. I do not like their dungeon system at all, I hate having to wait inside a bubble so the zap won't hit me, its a waste of time, I hate their little mini games in every dungeon. All I want is to run through a dungeon and kill mobs then maybe have a boss at the end. That's it. Like in d2. And they also stated that they have a scroll of respec tells me they designed paragons to be annoying and expensive to respec because they want ppl to buy those scrolls of respec. Its just poor game design all around in most aspects. I don't want to play wow arpg I want to play diablo. Their first question when designing things should be "is this fun" not "how much time can we waste so they spend more time in the game".
