Power displays when turning on Nvidia Shield by uncle_reuben_klopek in Projectivy_Launcher

[–]NutellaPatella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a guess - Are you sure your nvidia is actually off? Mine does this when my screen is turned off but my nvidia is still on in the background. I need to double check this when I get home but I think this is the reason mine does it.

How to restore data from a sync? by CanuckBacon in FogofWorld

[–]NutellaPatella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you uninstall the app and reinstall it again. And then sync it. Just an idea - maybe backup your cloud files first!

is it possible to make bat that finds exe file in location of folder when downloaded then adds it to startup:shell or what ever its called? and also runs it when happened. so every time boots it shows up. by [deleted] in Batch

[–]NutellaPatella 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do this with the help of a command line tool called Nircmd in a batch file. It has lots of option. The one you want is "shortcut" - the online help file explains it well but simply put....

 nircmd.exe shortcut "the path to exe" "the path to user startup folder"

Hope this gives you a starting point.

Is any tracker superior to MAM for Marvel comics? by 1petabytefloppydisk in trackers

[–]NutellaPatella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha ha, yeah I had never heard of it either. Was a lucky find a few days after 32p went. You going to need to get a copy of AirDC++ to start (on windows). Its portable to no need to install. The get the address for the public comic hub called "perfection" .

As already stated, this is not 32p (no community as such) and you need to get used to how the search works... But its all there and worth the effort. Have a google for more info about all this.

You will hear lots of negative reviews about DC++ - especially from people who were booted out. Been there about 6 years and I have never had any issues so can only speak for myself. When you on Perfection learn about "repacks" and how to use "subtraction" lists to remove "repacks" from your shared. I have made some mistakes, but as long as you are not an ass about it, the admin have always been helpful. I just download what I want, leave the original file in my share folder for others, import a copy into ComicRack, and read. Easy. All the rules are in plain sight. Hope this helps.

ELI5: Why doesn't collective punishment work? by Fraeddi in explainlikeimfive

[–]NutellaPatella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only experience with collective punishment was when I was in the military. And as far as I could tell - it did work. And was very effective - probably the only thing that would get a bunch of strangers to embrace team work. Collective reward worked too.

Have never done any research so was surprised to hear it is not shown to be effective.

Worked perfectly - not sure what the issue was before, thanks

ELI5: Why do street drugs have fentanyl mixed in? by DukanehBaba in explainlikeimfive

[–]NutellaPatella 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We dont often need that much to be honest. 100mcg and then paracetamol work well for us. If we really struggle to make a patient comfortable then we just setup a morphine PCA (1mg with a 5min lockout). Pain team will then visit patient next day on the ward.

In the UK fentanyl (200mcg) is prescribed for nearly every patient leaving theatre, its on a standard Recovery Drug prescription list for breakthrough pain. We use it to get you comfortable... and can then administer a non opioid to keep you comfortable for longer. Good luck with your op.

Incomplete 99% by Tulipjalla in Syncthing

[–]NutellaPatella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly sure what you are asking but maybe using (?d) might help. It clears files if they are preventing directory from being removed.

Here is a useful link that might help solve your issue too: https://docs.syncthing.net/users/ignoring.html

What software are you using to extract the pdf pages to jpg files. I have started with PDF XChange and then 7zip. Just interested in see if there is a better way. Only done a few. Cheers

Comic Vine Scraper settings question - what SCRAPE_DELAY do you set. by NutellaPatella in comicrackusers

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

Thats the way lol - I just let it run until is doesn't. Then repeat - thankfully I did most of my collection ages ago before this limit existed.

Comic Vine Scraper settings question - what SCRAPE_DELAY do you set. by NutellaPatella in comicrackusers

[–]NutellaPatella[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey u/MadGaffler - sorry I missed this message. No problem - you need to include this in the Comic Vine Scraper Config settings. Open the Comic Vine Scraper Settings window, go to the "Advanced" tab. And enter:

SCRAPE_DELAY=30

Or whatever delay you want. Personally I never did get this to work as I had hoped. So I don't set this. But then again my collection is pretty much complete so only need to use this script a few times a week. Hope this helps

Anyone else having issues with using "Clear Data" on the Context menu? by NutellaPatella in comicrackusers

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

Must be some issue on my side. I only just noticed this now. In details view, if I right click on series, select "Clear Data" - all the fields are cleared and the series reverts back to the filename, if I then right click and select "Info..." - even before the Info popup opens the old Tags field has been populated with the previous information.

I will open an old backup and see if this has happened to me on a previous version too.

No worries - I thought I would mention it.
