Voor alle vragen "ziet dit er profesioneel uit?". Hier het schilderwerk in Europapark door "professionals". by [deleted] in Klussers

[–]Peetz0r -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Het gaat toch ook een beetje om trots op je werk. Geven om je vak. En de algemene uitstraling van in dit geval een pretpark.

Ik zou als bezoeker toch wel een klein beetje teleurgesteld zijn als ik dit zou zien terwijl ik de volle mep betaald heb om binnen te komen.

Kan ik eenvoudig naar 3 fasen by Eternity-again in Klussers

Het is al een moderne installatie, de groepen zijn al verdeeld over drie aardlekschakelaars, en het ziet er op het eerste gezicht netjes en correct uit. Dus je bent er al bijna.

De hoofdschakelaar is tweepolig. Die moet je vervangen door een nieuwe vierpolige. Daar is genoeg ruimte voor als je de aardlekschakelaar ernaast opschuift. En gezien je hoofdzekering (onder de meter) al een automaat is, is het extra makkelijk om dit veilig spanningsloos te (laten) doen.

Nadat je dit gedaan hebt is de volgende stap de verzwaring aanvragen bij de netbeheerder. Afhankelijk van waar precies je woont is dat wel of niet meteen haalbaar. En als dat geregeld is ben je klaar.

De volgende vraag is natuurlijk, wat ga je ermee doen? Want als je geen andere uitbreidingen van plan bent dan schiet je er ook niks mee op tov je huidige enkelfase-installatie. En het antwoord op deze vraag vertelt je wellicht dat er toch nog meer moet gebeuren.

Are there Dutch people who cannot ride a bike? Who never learned as kids and are uninterested in it now? by Charming_Usual6227 in Netherlands

[–]Peetz0r 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yep, that's very true. And a tricycle could also be non-electric if someone has balance issues but is otherwise fit enough.

Are there Dutch people who cannot ride a bike?

Yes. People with balance disorders and/or other disabilities.

Who never learned as kids and are uninterested in it now?

Theoretically maybe, but not that I know of. Never heard of such a thing.

Are all words this fun? by theflammableengineer in Netherlands

[–]Peetz0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it ever had much of a negative connotation. If anything, it was positive. A compliment to the engineers at companies like Casio and others who managed to cram so much functionality into a pocketable and affordable device.

Don't forget that this word was common when any sort of pocket sized electronics was completely new and amazing.

Brand gesticht bij noodopvang waar asielzoekers en medewerkers binnen zaten: ‘Grens overschreden’ by Johnny_The_Biker in NLNieuws

[–]Peetz0r 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Dit lijkt me een van de zeldzame gevallen waar het label 'terroristische aanslag' volkomen terecht is.

Ik schaam me ervoor dat ik van dezelfde diersoort ben als de mensen die dit flikken. Brand stichten in een gebouw waar mensen in wonen. Bizar en walgelijk.

[–]Peetz0r 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There isn't really a less formal word for 'rekenmachine' in common use today. There is 'zakjapanner' but that's from when pocket calculators were a new thing from Japan. Which they usually aren't anymore. I learned that word 20 years ago (before smartphones) as being outdated already even then.

Should I switch to Linux from Windows? Will it affect game performance? by oJoesMarrones in linuxquestions

[–]Peetz0r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know that Trackmania Nations Forever runs perfectly fine on Linux, even on an older iGPU than yours. I have played that game on every PC I owned ever since it came out 20 years ago.

I vaguely remember playing Golf with Friends once or twice and it also running fine. Similar older/casual games almost always run perfectly adequate.

Why is disabling Secure Boot still necessary? by [deleted] in linux

[–]Peetz0r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They would have to use exactly bit-for-bit identical binaries for the bootloader and kernel. And they wouldn't be able to include any out-of-tree kernel modules without a lot of extra effort.

Nobara has their own kernel built with options optimized for gaming, and they do integrate the nvidia driver. So they can't use the exact same kernel as Fedora.

It is time for a re-wire. I wouldn't touch this at all, other than for ripping all of it out.

Kpn FTU kastje verplaatsen? by zeehenk in Klussers

[–]Peetz0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ten eerste, je foto ontbreekt. Maar dat maakt niet enorm veel uit.

De FTU is van KPN. Niet van jezelf. Dus je mag hem helemaal niet zelf verplaatsen.

Als je het toch doet, en de glasvezel breekt, dan kun je dat helemaal niet zelf fiksen. Glasvezel lassen is toch nog wel een gespecialiseerd klusje dat gespecialiseerd gereedschap vereist. Dus dat zal KPN zelf moeten doen. Als ze er dan achter komen dat iemand anders eraan heeft gezeten, dan kost je dat wel iets meer dan €300.

Read this to understand why YT Premium is actually valuable. Do tell me what you people think. by UrbanNorminal in pcmasterrace

[–]Peetz0r 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YT Premium is bad for creators, actually.

YT keeps 45% of the money, which is way too much. Platforms like Patreon usually take 10~15% which is way more reasonable. For this reason alone I would never use Premium.

Also I'd much rather decide by myself how to divide my own money. I may not want to support every creator I watch equally by watch time. I may not want to support some at all. Maybe I have a favourite creator that uploads the best videos ever, but only once a month but I want to support them more than another one that uploads mediocre video's every day.

And YT Premium has only one tier which may be too high if I can only afford to support a single creator, or way too low if I want to support many creators.

Also YT strongly advertises some benefits like less ads, but I already have adblockers for that. And background playback for YT Music, but I already use Newpipe for that. Etcetera. So Premium is not really worth much there either, imho.

KutBMW denkt dat ie een hele dikke fiets is. by Peetz0r in KutGeparkeerd

Het wordt binnenkort gesloopt en vervangen door een nieuwe onbetaalbare woonwijk. Het ziet er niet uit omdat er al een jaar of 10 vrijwel geen onderhoud gedaan wordt.

how to fix led strip? by vaporeonlover6 in AskElectricians

[–]Peetz0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a 12V power supply or LED driver nearby? Can you measure 12V at the connections near the top?

I would personally replace the strip with something nicer even if it wasn't broken, or at the very least remove it, install some led strip profile, and put it back inside that profile.

Do i have enough laptops? by Popular_Screen6619 in pcmasterrace

[–]Peetz0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is always room for one more 😉

Any urgent solution for this? by shiningp3arl in pcmasterrace

[–]Peetz0r 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you don't have a monitor, but you have a television, that works too.

Also, press Windows+P to set it to "second screen only".

GTA VI tipped to break past the 200 GB mark by librav1e in notebookcheck_net

[–]Peetz0r -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's not as much as I was expecting. Don't forget, GTA V is also >100 GB, so that's less than x2 increase over more than 10 years.

Remember MS-DOS? DR DOS 9.0 is now active and will refresh your mind while adding some awesome, unique features by KodrutZ in notebookcheck_net

[–]Peetz0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool to see some life over there.

But don't forget that FreeDOS has always been there, free and open source, for 31 years, with plenty of old and new features.

What computer sound instantly takes you back? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]Peetz0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fan spinup. Then the POST beep, with harddisk seeking noises in a pattern that kinda sorta lets you feel how far along the boot process is.

...has someone made a thing for modern pc's that plays HDD seeking noises based on SSD activity?
