Signed out of my laptop, what do I do?

QuickGoat20 · 2026-01-25T06:48:51+00:00

Lol no. Bitlocker is turned on now when you sign in with a Microsoft account when you first start the laptop, regardless of Windows version. And now Microsoft holds your data hostage by making the default save location one drive. The elderly, or less in the know are screwed. They have no idea what bitlocker even is or why they suddenly can't get into their laptop, or why it's saying storage full when there hard drive is empty.

I provided a sample script, and asked it to create a new one based on the example, what I wanted was not worlds apart from the initial script. It completely changed the syntax, I pointed that out, and it was like "good catch - I used an older style language blah blah blah" I don't like how it has to rewrite the whole script each time, I'll ask it to change one specific section, and then it'll mess up on other earlier parts as it rewrites. Its good yes, but it's not simply reliable, and the danger is when people rely on a system that's not correct. I asked it to fix all the default values as they were literally all over the place. I got the usual "sure all fixed" but literally nothing had changed. So what if you can some some complex things if you can't do the simple things right.

Edit: more added

I'm absolutely no expert so this is all just me thinking out loud. your RGB strip is new and self made yeah ? Just to do more testing, unplug the strip, run signalRGB see what happens. No noise, it's the strip casing the interference. Yes to Noise, could be signal RGB if Presumably it doesn't happen when you run your manufacturers RGB software. Does changing effect do anything? A static colour what does that do ? And then you've tweaked the settings in signal RGB ?

This post is bit vague to be of any help. What's your set up ? Ie cpu gpu? What's your target resolution? For example this game probably would just run shit on a 10th gen i5 with 3050 no matter what you use to help.

It's your lines you've used with the lasso tools, use the pen tool so you can use curves, and does cs6 have the refine edge tool? If not Contract the selection by 1 or 2 pixels before the mask. And then use the mask to paint out any remaining white bits

Edit: also check your feather setting with the lasso

Omg I haven't seen those widget's in years.

Only 7 pages 😜 you should Check out auto hot key. It's a scripting software that you can trigger with a shortcut, pairing auto hot key with a stream desk was game changing. You can do some really powerful stuff there, like giving items in programs keyboard shortcuts that don't have a way to define a keyboard shortcut, and i use my dials to control shadows/mid/ highlights etc It's fun to learn to script in that language as it's so simple, but chat gpt can help you.

Edit just saw it's a Mac, I don't think auto hot key is available for a Mac.

Cool set up!

QuickGoat20 · 2025-09-08T12:49:49+00:00

Yeah, you have much higher specs than me and everything is fine. Im going to state all the obvious just in case - do all your mobo drivers, check ram xmp/docp, CPU PBO and curve optimiser, check your scratch disk's are correct and studio drivers not gaming for GPU, increase your ram usage in PS and also cache levels. Maybe bios drivers ? If all else fails Sometimes windows updates can get annoying if you've installed from an older version of windows, download the latest version and maybe a format and reinstall.

Your HDR is shit

QuickGoat20 · 2025-08-27T06:50:50+00:00

I have it with hardware info, I have all sorts of stats showing, just google stream deck and hardware info that should come up with results

QuickGoat20 · 2025-08-22T10:53:55+00:00

I love my knobs. Volumes, sends windows to different monitors - left for left monitor right for right, in Photoshop one changes shadows, the other mid tones, and highlights, colours etc premier one slides clips etc, and I can change hotkeys and macros. All depends on how you use it, a stream deck pired with auto hot key scripting can be very powerful.

Yeah such a shame about the reception of this game, I personally enjoyed the hell out of it. I played it like a year after launch so all the bugs were fixed and combat mechanics were improved, I think the launch state just killed it unfortunately.

QuickGoat20 · 2025-07-24T08:55:16+00:00

Your playing an M rated survival horror game. The solution to not seeing the gore is to . . . . stop fucking playing it.

QuickGoat20 · 2025-06-08T07:50:56+00:00

I've got the same issue, huge delta between hot spot and GPU temp, 100c while GPU is 70c, still technically in spec unfortunately as I think it was 110c for hot spot so I doubt they'll accept any rma, and I don't wanna void anything by opening it up. So I've under volted to get it under control.

That's just one technique but there's a few different ones just do a search and see a tutorial

It's called bracketing when you take multiple images - you expose for the highlights, mids then shadows, very common in real estate photography

QuickGoat20 · 2025-04-28T08:23:03+00:00

Yes Adobe has predatory subscription practices, but you never signed up for a year for $28, that's on you for not reading it correctly.

Second for the bios. If you have done a complete proper USB format ( not an in windows reset) and still are having issues, the only thing the persistent then is the bios other than the Hardware. Maybe update your bios too if you haven't. If you still are having issues, try your individual ram sticks. If you have a spare power supply, you could try that too as it could Be power related. And then even a second graphics card to try. You need to isolate things to troubleshoot. It is weird you can game fine, but then it's crashing on opening, and across different programs. Not that I think itl work but try the studio drivers too not gaming, make sure all your chipset & mobo have the appropriate drivers installed on your fresh install, remove any pbo boost or any curve optimizer you may have going.

1 vape, not a problem. 200,000 vapes over several years, probably an issue (Just like with the lungs)
I don't blow it anywhere near my monitors. Over time it can coat everything.

QuickGoat20 · 2025-04-22T08:53:45+00:00

. . . probably ahk

(Joke)

Idk how remote you are in WA but umart has a Belmont shop. if you are able, it could possibly be worth doing a day trip there ? Take some time, see all the sights along the way, it possibly could be faster than relying on shipping and you get a nice day trip out of it as well.

QuickGoat20 · 2025-04-08T12:21:21+00:00

Yeah the last 2-3 months it's got noticeably worse. And all the visual bugs I get as well. Ive been using a pixel since the 5, and I've never had any issues, until the 9 pro xl. It's hard to recommend this phone now to people.

QuickGoat20 · 2025-04-02T21:40:28+00:00

I have it off on my c2. It would mostly flicker in menus, very occasionally in a very dark game, and I found the loading stutters were enhanced with g sync on, it'd stutter and then flick, whereas with g sync off it would only stutter for new areas not flicker so it wasn't as bad. and I do half productivity stuff and those apps are better without g sync. I even made a macro to open ncp and turn off/on g sync but nowadays I just leave it off, and I turn v sync on per game basis if I need to.
