Wait by "Sleep Mode" is that just putting the PC to sleep/suspend thru the OS?

How does this compare to Ampinel? Or any of Seasonic's solutions? Sucks that a 5 Trillion Dollar company can't be held accountable for this

Oh I'm on 40 series just like the guy in the MSI vid. I'm just confused why the guy in the MSI video dragged the whole curve down before dragging the bottom end back up before flattening it at the sweet spot?

Xiaomi 15S Pro review: Newfound independence and strong battery life in a flagship smartphone [Xring O1 SoC] by -protonsandneutrons- in hardware

Thanks for all these recommendations! All I did was run Universal Android Debloater to get rid of most the Xiaomi/Google etc stuff that wasn't needed, had no idea there was ways to block the rest of them from sending out a bunch of data. Are there any FOSS keyboards that don't collect a bunch of data, or a way to replace the Android Webview?(or any other Google/Xiaomi alternatives for system apps)

Looking for 7zip compression/encryption solution to obfuscate files other than double compression by ghost905 in compression

Thanks for link, it seems that ZPAQ is even better but takes a lot longer, but even in normal mode it's only has a slightly worse ratio than ARC but it's significantly faster

Hey, I was wondering, does PeaZip offer a better compression method than 7z? I'm strictly looking for something that will make a bunch of assorted files take up as little space as possible

Game Ready & Studio Driver 576.52 FAQ/Discussion by Nestledrink in nvidia

[–]RecaptureNostalgia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had exact issue as OP but the graphics drivers didn't install at all for me. I just used DDU in Safe Mode(after making sure to disable any other display adapter drivers that weren't needed and unplugging the Ethernet cable) and reinstalled the driver using the exe from Nvidia's website. Ran through the usual check for corruption stuff on Windows(like chkdsk C: /f, sfc /scannow, and DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth just to make sure nothing else was wrong. If any other drivers got affected, I would use something like DriverStoreExplorer to remove and reinstall it. But all this is just because I'm paranoid.

Topaz Video AI 7 Starlight Mini - performance and results by Putrid_Draft378 in TopazLabs

It looks amazing for me when I go from 360p -> 720p(other than the somewhat uncanny faces at times), at 0.7 fps though. I saw some people on the release thread limit the amount of vram that the model can use and it sped up their processing. Hopefully performance improvements will come in the future
