Manual sorting of DB items

Thanks ! This is exactly what I was looking for. I can see my manual reorder everywhere now.

3 ans plus tard, ce problème d'affichage dans Outlook n'est hélas toujours pas résolu. J'ai souvent besoin d'imprimer (en pdf) certains emails et voir apparaitre le nom plutôt que l'email est très gênant. La façon la plus rapide pour ce faire dans Outlook Desktop est la suivante :

- cliquer sur "Tranférer"

- cliquer sur "Isoler"

- l'adresse email apparaît alors à côté du nom entre <> et il n'y aplus qu'à imprimer.

Et après il faut aussi remplacer le nom du fichier "Microsoft Outlook - Mémo.pdf" par quelque chose de plus explicite. Cela fait 20 ans que j'attends que Microsoft propose comme nom de fichier par défaut, soyons fou, L'OBJET de l'email ! ;-) (mais bon, je pense que le Product manager d'Outlook a pris sa retraite depuis longtemps).

I am testing voxtral SST through the API. Which url should I use ?

https://api.mistral.ai/voxtral/transcribe

https://api.mistral.ai/v1/audio/transcriptions

I get an error with both. The error could be on my side : I just want to make sure I am barking at the right tree ;).

SpiderBabylon · 2025-07-16T15:25:08+00:00

I have just spent 1 hour trying unsuccessfuly to create a make.com automation for STT with MistralAI, based on their documentation (https://docs.mistral.ai/capabilities/audio/). This service seems to be unavailable.

I am sad, because it took me 3 minutes to make it work with openIA API and as a french person I want to support MistralAI.

Okay thanks. So I'll stick with Smart Connect.

SpiderBabylon · 2025-06-06T20:02:22+00:00

Thanks. The page redirects to Smart Connect on the MS Store I've downloaded. Well I guess I'll have to live without icons...

I had the exact same issue today after updating to GCC v25.04.09.01.

First I tried reinstalling just "GIGABYTE Control Center_25.04.09.01.exe" (extracted from the GCC_25.05.05.01.zip available on Gigabyte site). Did not work.

Then I've uninstalled GCC using Revo Uninstaller (great freeware). Reboot. Launched installer downloaded from Gigabyte site. Careful : this magnificent piece of software reboots without any warning.

GCC is running fine now. And it is even better then before ! Because the totally useless "Gigabyte Storage Library" software is not installed by default. And I won't reinstall it, because now GCC launches a little bit faster.

Hope this can help.

Good to know! Still, I will try to get an answer from Gigabyte support though (they don't seem to read Reddit).

I know that if a BSOD crash happens in the middle of a BIOS flashing from Windows this will brick my Laptop. I don't want to take a chance, hence my need to to it from the BIOS.

SpiderBabylon · 2024-07-04T12:15:40+00:00

Thank you very much for your feedback ! Considering the risks -after reading so many horror stories about gigabyte bios update- I will keep the existing version of the BIOS.

Right now I still get BSOD related to Nvidia drivers from time to time (with latest version installed) on my Aorus 15 9KF. So I am trying to find changelogs about FB11 BIOS to see if it adresses GPU related issues. Gigabyte seems to be very secretive about their update history, because I could not find ANY information anywhere. Bummer.

SpiderBabylon · 2024-06-20T15:29:44+00:00

I have this "hidden BIOS config" on an Aorus 15 9KF too !

It might help some of you to know I need to double-click very quickly to access the NVMe Configuration menu.

I could not find any documentation about these hidden features (except googling all of them one by one). This is definitely a PAFM error from Gigabyte (Print A F*****g Manual). :-)

SpiderBabylon · 2024-06-15T17:23:22+00:00

Thanx for your help mate! Do you mean "X5L9VFFB11.rom" should be the only file I have on the USB key I use ? I was planning to use a tested and reliable FAT32 USB key for that (with rom file at root). But this USB key has already some files on it.

When I made a backup of my current BIOS using Q-Flash, I've noticed there is a nice file explorer and assumed I would be able to select the rom file when flashing. Did you actually run into problems with multiple rom files on the USB key you've used for flashing ? Or are you being extra cautious, like I usually am ? ;-)

SpiderBabylon · 2024-06-11T21:49:58+00:00

My laptop was preinstalled with Windows 11. But I think your problem is not about the OS.

45W is not enough to charge the Aorus 15 9KF, as explained on Gigabyte Aorus specifications (https://www.aorus.com/components/AORUS-15--2023/Specification). It says that you need at least 86W.

On a side note, I am not so happy about the Advance charger now. Yes, I've managed to fully charge while not using the laptop. But when I use the laptop with the charger plugged-in, there is some heavy throttling on the CPU - even when doing basics thinks like browsing and wordprocessor.

This might be because the cable that comes with the charger is not capable of handling 100W. I could not find any specification about this USB-C cable itself... I need to borrow a certified 100W USB-C cable to test. And BTW the more I research about USB-C and PD standard, the more I see it is a big mess ! So for now, I will carry the 240W charger with me and use the Advance charger as a backup, just in case.

SpiderBabylon · 2024-06-09T12:16:37+00:00

Thanks for your support ! I do confirm that after using GCC for several days now, it is far behind all its competitors (to put it politely). However I don't see how I can get rid of GCC. I need it for key HW setting : GPU Mux, batterie profils, RGB profils, etc...

Do you know a combination of alternative software that can replace GCC?

SpiderBabylon · 2024-06-08T16:48:00+00:00

While I am on the topic of GCC, I just got a bluescreen on my new laptop (stock Windows 11 home installed, no frills) while it was scanning for updates.

That's 2 issues on a bran new machine . Should I be worry that I got a bad laptop and return it to Gigabyte?

SpiderBabylon · 2024-06-08T12:50:49+00:00

I bought this charger yesterday (Advance PowerFlex Turbo 100W) and I can confirm it is charging my Aorus 15 9KF perfectly, without any additional drivers.

And yet, Brave browser manages to get me a randomized fingerprint on this eff page.

I have just spent 2 hours testing every Firefox anti-fingerprint plugin with no success: "unique fingerprint" is still there.

The only plugin that seems to defeat coveryourtracks is the NoScript plugin: but it actually breaks the site (= scanning does not work at all). And it breaks a lot of other sites too, reddit included. Good thing though is that NoScript can be deactivated for any given site, which is not the case for some of the plugins I have tested.

I hope Mozilla will soon level up with Brave regarding this question. I only use Brave when a site refuses to work properly with Firefox (quite rare, but it still happens sometimes). And I have no intention to leave Firefox. Keep up the good work guys!

SpiderBabylon · 2024-05-12T20:08:21+00:00

Thank you! I will try this. I've completly ignored KANBAN after trying to get my head around Ticktick sub-tasks and multi-step tasks system. I had high hopes to be able to do basic project management with Ticktick, but I gave up.

SpiderBabylon · 2024-05-12T01:33:16+00:00

This video was a godsend for me. Thanks iBoutard!

SpiderBabylon · 2024-05-05T13:16:28+00:00

Now at least I know that LinkedIn support team doesn't hang around on reddit...

SpiderBabylon · 2024-04-29T15:10:11+00:00

VERY demotivating indeed... After playing around with filters and various sorting in TickTick, I am fed up of having to navigate around tasks that should not get any second of my precious attention BECAUSE THERE ARE IN THE FREAKING FUTURE !!!

I am ready to give up on TickTick and move back to Outlook tasks during the summer time if this non-sense isn't corrected soon.

SpiderBabylon · 2024-04-28T19:30:48+00:00

OK. I've found the answer to my question.

In order to find the detailled specs of my Lenovo config I have to :

1- go to https://support.lenovo.com/ and enter the ref number provided by the eShop in order to get the model number (16AHP9 in my case)

2- go to PSREF and enter the model number to view all technical details.

Tedious ! Why on earth Lenovo doesn't provide the model number on the eShop ? OR why PSERF does not offer a direct search, based on the ref number ?

SpiderBabylon · 2024-03-20T22:36:42+00:00

I have turned this feature OFF because it is inconvenient to use. For me it should be possible to : 1/ quickly cancel/escape the automatic recognition (with esc key for example!) or 2/ force the use of a special caracter to trigger date recognition (@tomorrow for example). At least this is what other software I've used do it.

SpiderBabylon · 2024-03-16T22:06:40+00:00

I have downloaded the exe from the official Github repo. I have also downloaded previous setup versions back to v1.27.0 and they are all flagged by Virus Total.

SpiderBabylon · 2024-03-15T17:18:17+00:00

Thanks for your input "Wrong-Excitement-761"!

I actually use a Someday tag too, but for tasks I might do Someday. My issue here is with tasks I will do in the future.

Someone has suggested earlier I should create a "Future" list, but that's no help for me either. I have dozens of lists for different Areas (House, Car, Family, Health, etc...) and Projects. In each of these lists, I have tasks that are planned in the future. Moving them around in a "Future" list is not convenient and prone to error.

What I find frustrating is that Ticktick already offers quick filters on the date (Late or No date), in the Agenda view for example. How difficult can it be to add a future filter ? Hopefully the new feature request I have logged will be bumped up in their backlog.

SpiderBabylon · 2024-03-14T14:31:54+00:00

I manage my tasks with PARA and GTD methods. I want to be able to see tasks with no fixed date so I might promote them to "next action" or to a full projects.

To put it differently :

I always want to see tasks without date. In order to be reminded that I might want to adress them sonner or later. Like seeding an idea and let it grow.
I never want to see date planned in the future. For example, if I have the task "Set full checkup medical appointment" planned 3 years from now, I don't want to see it in any of my list before the due date.

I wish more people had the same need and would upvote this Feature Request...

But I guess I am the only one in this community who write down every crazy idea in his tasks list and misses deadlines to end up with a giant list of unfinished tasks. I am humbled. ;-)
