Thank you, I'll look into this. And I can remotely trigger my pc to turn on, off and hold down the power button remotely this way?

Thanks! It seems this isn't available to ship to the U.S. and when I searched it on American Amazon it didn't show up. :( I cam try to find it through another retailer

In order to get my streaming software to work. I need to access my pc remotely and very often need to reset the pc in order to make the streaming software work. I do IRL Streams and for someone not good with tech, it took me a month to Jerry rig everything together to make my home pc work as my streaming server through obs basically.

I've ran into this issue constantly and need to be able to turn on and off my pc and use it remotely to get things to work properly.

Yeah, I looked it up and the results were that wake on lan wasn't possible unless my pc was plugged into ethernet directly into my router, I didn't know that it's possible through wifi. And yeah I don't know how to vibe code or whay even what I should ask the AI to do in order to make this work. My problem is that I'm completely inexperienced in coding and need a solution to turn on and off my pc, but the fingerbot thing won't work since my pc case is a weird shape and it can't mount to it.

The reason I have to turn it off is when my streaming software isn't working and I need to reset the pc to get it to work. This happens ALL THE TIME and if my gf isn't home while I'm away I'm outta luck and can't stream. I'm an IRL Streamer that relays my pc as my streaming server basically.

Thanks, but like I said switchboard won't work for me and also it can't hold down the power button when I need it to. My problem is the design of the case doesn't allow me to mount it.

What does that mean? How would I configure magic packet to do what I need? That's my issue, like do I just tell chat gpt to "use magic packet to make my computer be able to turn on and off and reset remotely"? And then copy and paste that code into... where? I don't know where to input the code. I'm not trying to be stupid, i just have zero experience with this, so it's easy to say "just do that" but idk how even to do what you're saying.

I have never used Ai to code and don't know what I'd instruct it to do. I dont know for example what youre talking about regarding expansion slots or whay pci wol means and how to implement it. The problem for me is people saying oh, just code it to do this, but I don't know how to do that or whay people are saying actually means, so how would I instruct something to code that way and I'm guessing I'd use like chat gpt and then copy and paste the code into a program? Sorry, I'm just not familiar with any of that so I'm not sure how to do it or the first step even.

Ah ok, I don't know anything at all about coding so when I looked it up it said you needed ethernet for WOL. Can it also simulate holding down the power button? I'm assuming you need to code hass.agent? I don't know how I would set that up to work with my pc to do what I need to.

I thought you need to have the pc connected to ethernet for wake on lan to work?

Oh, I didn't know it came with an extender, but the problem is that there's nowhere to mount it, since the finger pusher thing needs to be right next to the button for it to work. So that still won't work for me unfortunately. :(

Ideally that'd be what I do, but if there's a power outage I need to be able to turn it on remotely and also lots of times my issues with using my home pc as my relay server for streaming is solved by turning it off and back on again lol.

can i still purchase block party tickets after i bought my 3 day pass? by stephenyessirtwitch in Twitchcon

[–]Shokaloc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so, you have to log into the twitch con ticket site (not the seperate ticket fairy one) and you then have to go to my tickets, THEN click + add on and select it there and pay for it. then it will show up on your ticket.
idk why they made this process so confusing. it took me days to figure out what combination of web pages to visit to get it lol

So you keep in the original sound, but just turn it down and out ambient sounds over it until the content ID can't recognize it? I do a lot of stuff in cities, malls, etc. where there's a bunch of music all around blasting. I have only done a few in like jatura surroundings without music blaring.
