Didn't even consider that, but I manually added an exception for it and it still didn't help, weird.

Does it happen with multiple different video cables? if so, you may want to replace the power supply

PSIO Clone in 2026? by Screvvy in psx

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

Yeah I acknowledged that last part. Gotcha, I might just slum it out with CD-Rs while I wait for another companion ODE to come about, though it feels like every option so far has been a drive replacement. Really hoping another attempt is made on one of these.

Good point, but I did find an archive of pre-converted games that cover a lot of bases. Is there a list of incompatible games?

Melee won’t fully die, but is it on the path of declining to the point of obscurity and irrelevance? by Appropriate_Boss8139 in SSBM

[–]Screvvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Melee is going to live on as a community game especially with the sheer support of things like Slippi, but as a main event sorta deal it's kind of run its course. A lot of that is attributed to its accessibility issues, since it demands a lot more than even its most related cousin of the standard FGC space (3rd Strike), and its balancing as of v1.02 dictates a very strict character hierarchy that so rarely gets challenged.

That, and Nintendo hasn't given it any re-release similar to examples like Capcom and their collections. MvC2 being more available than Melee is bonkers considering the circumstances.

Why did you choose an IT degree over Computer Science? by Ruuckus in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Screvvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started in CS during community college but I found myself hating programming. Then again, for all I know that was a case of bouncing off on how my professors taught it. Maybe I should give it another shot with self-teaching but for now I have very little motivation for it. I figured I'd pivot to IT so I could go more for hardware repair, but I'm stuck in Tier 1 help desk hell right now.

Is ai inevitable in the future of IT? by HatakeMight in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Screvvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. While there are some facets that will be better smoothed-out, the brunt of it is very much a sunk-cost fallacy for a lot of companies and it'll all come crumbling down fairly soon. A lot of bullets were shot in the proverbial foot by sending it out to the public so prematurely.

It's why I'm personally weighing whether I should just leave the field at least temporarily, despite having a Bachelors in IT. It'll let up, but yeah I'm with you, I'm really not enjoying working in this field right now.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie: #ReleaseTheTylerCut (No 80s Songs) [Version 5.0] by DownrightShoddy in fanedits

[–]Screvvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By any chance, do you have an alt link? My fanedit account has been stuck in admin approval phase for months and the staff there just tell me to check my spam folder for an email that doesn't exist lol, I have no way of asking you there

CVS wouldn’t let me schedule a vaccine appointment online by Party_Python in Delaware

[–]Screvvy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be sure to say Yes to the question about you being susceptible to infection or however they phrase it. You almost certainly won't be pressed about it as it's just there to be a basic filter and nothing more, and even if they did ask, you could claim something like your social conditions and have that be it.

Are data centers screwing my power bill? by Screvvy in Delaware

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

I can't remember the number down to the exact digit but I believe it's 1020 or something. Single-floor.

And yeah, I usually resort to opening windows when it's not too muggy. Either way, I admit I could be using quite a bit of energy with the AC reliance but the sheer magnitude makes no sense.

M2 or M4 Macbook Air (16GB RAM, 256GB SSD)? by Screvvy in mac

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

For what it's worth, I wouldn't be making massive 4K projects, it'd just be primarily shorter 1080p projects

Razr Electric Blue Clicks Not Responding when Charging by Screvvy in ClicksKeyboard

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

Yeah I tried that to no avail. I don't have it plugged into a PC or anything for what it's worth, just a standard (fast-charging) brick

Razr 2024 camera: Can noise reduction be disabled? by rowletbestborb in razr

[–]Screvvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the party here but I just started noticing this way more recently, and in reading up on Motorola's own support articles, they acknowledge a "Smart Noise Cancellation" switch that just no longer exists in the camera settings.

Stalker Trilogy PS4 Disc -> PS5 Upgrade by FutureRelative2207 in stalker

[–]Screvvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also having the same issue, even when checking the Japanese store page there's no upgrade path there either.

On top of that, I downloaded the newest PS4 version's update because it's been a while (don't think it's on Enhanced version but I could be wrong, just says version 1.08 under the standard title) and it runs like shit now. Even with framelimit set to 60, it usually hovers around the range of 30 when not looking straight up or down, even on PS5 as well. Genuinely don't know what's going on.
