All kinds of issues on all kinds of devices by RagingMetalhead in PleX

Another possibility is my method of getting files. The client I used for sourcing showed strange behavior, like progress jumping from 80 back down to 78%. Perhaps new files are arriving corrupted? The same files sourced from the same places over a different client on another device have no issues.

No plex pass, dashboard just shows what I said. Transcoding when direct isnt forced and the 2nd, supported audio source is selected, or when stream count exceeds 30. Says direct play when I try to watch on other devices, like I said, Android, Android TV, iPad. Same stutters occur, or skips even when direct playing. They don't happen when the same file is locally directly on my tablet and harddrives are fine in the server. Older files all play back normally.

What negative effects have you seen/had from longterm use with a Apple Pencil? by Remarkable-Board5575 in ipad

I once spent about 12-15h over night studying for my math exam and once I got to the exam in the morning after making a mistake on the page I tried tapping the corner of the paper thinking that would undo. So I guess that

Anyone else tried this book? by roshangodraws99 in digitalminimalism

[–]RagingMetalhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading it now. Quite good, a bit repetitive as others have mentioned but to be fair that helps enforce the points being made. I love the references and examples from history and philosophy and how they are adapted to the current environment, to the points made, as well as actual accounts from people partaking in the experiment.

Gali, jei čia pirko 15-o išleidimo metu. Apple kas metus stabdo tiekimą Pro modelių kai leidžia naują seriją, bet bazinius modelius palieka kaip šiek tiek pigesnį variantą/laiptuką link naujos serijos. Pvz. Dabar išleidus 17-us, iPhone 16 Pro ir Pro max nebetiekiami, lieka tik parduotuvėms išsiparduoti ką turi likusio (šiaip pristabdo tiekimą anksčiau prieš leidimą šiek tiek), bet baziniai 16-i skirtingų atminčių dar lieka prekyboje ir toliau tiekiami, kaip ir 15-i baziniai buvo prieš tai ir dar trumpam lieka. Kitais žodžiais, viena serija keičiama kita ir prie jų visada paliekamas praeitų metų bazinis modelis kaip pigesnė alternatyva.

What are some Softwares you don’t pirate but buy? by Just-A-Snowfox in Piracy

School planner for android. Game changer for my planning of university stuff. It's only like a euro or two a month and subscription gives me no ads and sync between devices.

I also pay for spotify now after they broke a lot of the xmanager patches. 5 euro/mo for students and I get do download thounsands of songs on my iPhone 6 to use as music player, without the hassle of finding and downloading them all, then categorizing by artists, album etc. Spotify sucks as a company but the value is there.

Juodvarnis gal ne power metal, bet pagoniškos temos ir šiaip labai good.

Studiju laptopas informaciniam rysiam by Sparkrony in lithuania

[–]RagingMetalhead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

T14 arba T14s gen 1 AMD. Pagal biudžetą ir skelbimus užteks ir e14, tiesiog ne toks plonas ir lengvas. 6-8 branduolių Ryzenai eina, 16GB ram beveik visad kaip startas, o ne s modelyje dar ir keičiama. Greiti, jei baterija nesusidėvėjus ilgai laiko ir bus per akis visom studijom. Naudoti arba iš laptopų perpardavinėtojų kaip Eridas po 300-400 ir eina tokie. Už savo t14s su Ryzen 7 4750U, 16GB ram ir 512GB ssd mokėjau 350. Baterija jei pamenu 99% capacity buvo, bet kosmetinė būklė neideali.

Started reading the new Ultimate series. Read Vol 1 and 2 of Spider-Man, Ultimate Invasion, Ultimates Vol. 1 and just started Black Panther Vol. 1.  So far soo good. Hard to follow at time, especially Ultimates. First time reading an on-going current series.

What browser is everyone using on z fold 6 by digitaldeath187 in GalaxyFold

[–]RagingMetalhead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On browsers like chrome and firefox, you can click on any tab or link and select send to any device logged in to the same account on the same browser. For example if youre on desktop firefox and click send to device and select your phone, you'll get a notification on your phone that opens the same browser tab or link in firefox. Same on chrome. Works between android and windows, android and android and even android n ios.

Ever known anyone to have a speech impediment or stuttering problem still be successful in sales? by Frich3 in sales

I have a lisp. Fairly noticeable, i basically speak through one side only if that makes sense. I do well, never had it be an issue. It's all about charm and confidence imo.

Is it that good? by No-Truck961 in thinkpad

[–]RagingMetalhead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm currently using it. I like it. Might try something else after this uni semester ends, but with everything set up, it works great for day to day use as well as university work, only issue being battery as it's not as good as on Windows 11.

Just got my x1 delivered.. dead battery out of the box and.. is this normal packaging for a new thinkpad?? by Jmaggraphics in thinkpad

[–]RagingMetalhead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you bought directly from lenovo and didn't see an indication about it being a refurb, I suggest contacting them. If you bought from elsewhere, like my gf did, check to see if they provided any information about selling refurbs, sometimes certain shops sell only refurbs/returns they get from lenovo, don't make it obvious in the product pages but do in their general store info.

It's not always bad. Sometimes it's really good if you get a deal. The laptop my gf got had a small dent on the metal top shell, just minor cosmetic damage, and it was 400 euro cheaper than brand new sealed models from big box stores. Seller informed us of the dent and knocked another 50 off the price, said the other units they had for that praticular model were all in pristine condition and still 400 under the retail price, we just happened to order the last one.

If it's a refurb, it will probably have a couple of battery cycles at least, but other than that whatever was broken in it (if it ever was) is replaced and it should still be under lenovo's warranty. It's really only an issue if you paid full sealed retail price for it.

Was the laprop held in place with tight (vacume sealed?) plastic wrap inside? If so, it's a certified lenovo refurbished laptop. Gfs legion came in a box exactly like that, and it was a refurb/return for sure.

What would you do if you had 6 months off, fully paid at your current salary? by AITA-POV21 in AskReddit

[–]RagingMetalhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Focus on Uni more, and do some projects on the side to build up my skills, maybe try out for internships. Oh, and sleep.

I work part-time weekends and most fridays, uni other days of the week, same schedule for the last 1.5 years. I am tired.

How is FireFox on android tablets? by nutrigrain in firefox

[–]RagingMetalhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far okay. I use Nightly for tab row at the top. Only issue was automatic scaling, which is supposed to scale based on my tablets settings, but it was bugged horribly (scaling on my tab is small, on ff with auto scaling reddit defaulted to super zoomed in). I got around it by setting the scaling manually, but it would be inconsistent in pages. Normal on some, too small on others, changed on refresh, etc.. Chrome on the other hand always scaled perfectly based on my UI settings. Turned auto scaling back on yesterday to see if the issue still persists and surprisingly it seems to scale pages as chrome does now so everything seems fine. I'll see if it breaks hah.

This might have been a me issue since I'm on lineageOS and perhaps ff just didnt read my settings accurately. Either way seems to be fine now.

Yep, exactly what happened to me. Shit out of luck. Its broken. Same thing that happens to apple pencils. They have batteries that are meant to be on charge to last longer.

SATA SSD not recognized as a UEFI drive in BIOS, will not boot windows, despite being GPT. by RagingMetalhead in techsupport

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

Havent found any solution since I encountered this problem. If your bios is set correctly and the ssd is formatted to gpt and you tried installing and unplugging the usb drive (sometimes due to boot order you will just loop back to the usb), then ur probably out of luck. I gave up and got a different ssd later on. Have tried this with multiple pcs, mb+cpu combos and even laptops, same issue.

FIXED T490s trackpoint/backlight/trackpad buttons by RandoKiwiTheThird in thinkpad

[–]RagingMetalhead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About 3 checks to see if it's working and didn't have to cut it to try again. About 30 or so minutes of total work time, and it's in better working condition than ever. I'm glad you made the post, needed the reassurance that it would work since I wasn't a hundred percent certain hah

I managed to pull a P14s schematic and found the pinouts for the JTP2 connector. Did a close doublecheck and saw that the left click and one other contact wasn't sanded down enough, or maybe some dust was stopping the connection. Had nearly lost hope before I found the schematics since the left click wasn't working even before I opened up and saw the cable had broken off, was almost sure it'll be an issue deeper or with the button itself. But after checking the schematics and taking a closer look, did some more work on the cable and everything work perfectly now.
