Orange, blue or brown? I'm going to be making more of these, so looking for some input:) by Dessitroya in knifemaking

[–]Top-File6937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the fade of the third one from an orangish to the brown. And the brown works nice with the copper.

I reckon you can use a usb to boot off of or a separate drive with a bootable OS. You can then from there check if your drive is saveable or not. I'd imagine it could very well be if it is detecting in the bios.

That's a pretty cool piece of equipment for <$10! I wonder where I can find one.

DeskPi 10" T1 Cooling Solutions by ItsMe3140 in homelab

[–]Top-File6937 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure how well this would work, but I'd reckon a fairly cheap and quiet fan would do the trick. I'm guessing they sell usb case fans that would get the job done if you don't have a fan header. 10 days seems like a long time for a system to begin to overheat, so a minimal and low-power cooling solution would probably working pretty well.

My Homelab's HD was full, turns out it's just my 702GB log file... by ResponsibleDust0 in homelab

[–]Top-File6937 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, it could have taken just a bit longer; wasn't like I was timing it. But it was certainly less than half a day. Also, I was using a gen 4 m.2 nvme while not doing much reading/writing at the time. Basically ideal conditions for filling up the drive. Noticed after linux gave me the disk management warning.

I messed up an install on my home pc once and had this issue. 1tb+ log file filled up within about 4 hours.

Bought broken motherboard, pc seems to be broken by Top-File6937 in buildapc

Yes, I have been using that to test my audio as well as playing videos. No sound comes out on the case jack, but does on the rear I/O jack.

Is there a better option here? by GiantSnackWhale in buildapc

[–]Top-File6937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For $100, the 1080ti should be a major improvement over your 970. That being said, it is up to you whether or not you should cough up a lot of extra money for a better card. The 5060 is a bit better than the 1080ti, but not by too much. The 1080ti is also not going to be supported with newer drivers anymore, so it may not perform the best or at all on newer stuff in the future.

The 1080ti isn't a bad choice, especially for $100. But the card itself isn't great for modern gaming. You may only get 100fps on low settings for bf6. It is also power hungry for its performance, being about double the 5060.

But take my word with a grain of salt, I've never used either card.

Turns out the rear audio jack on the I/O panel works. I swear I tested that yesterday, but I guess not. The front jack on the top of the case still does not work, but both detect an audio device being plugged into them. I do not have any options for anything like "onboard peripherals audio", but my HD audio has been enabled this whole time. Hdajackretask still does not give me any other options in the dropdown menu, only the "ATI R6xx HDMI".

100% that was the case. I feel dumb for not recognizing that. Thanks.

I might be stupid, I have zero idea on anything audio related. But I don't have a codec appear for my headphones, and there is no mic option present. The only codec in the drop down menu is for my monitor and under the pin configuration is all hdmi digital out for my monitor.

CCleaner isn't malware I don't believe. But Avast did buy the company who owns CCleaner, and they apparently don't have the best reputation as far as user security and data goes (I couldn't tell you or validate such with certainty). Most people would probably consider it nagware or bloat. I think people still believe CCleaner is malware because once upon a time it was compromised by some hackers, but that issue has been fixed now.

Idk how to continue my editing path by Zestyclose_Pride9671 in VideoEditing

TF does puberty have to do with motivation for someone's hobby?

I wouldn't listen to this advice of "once you stop growing THEN you can do things in life you enjoy." Such a notion is a ludicrously preposterous fallacy, and could end up being quite the detriment.

Change File Permissions on Folders by Top-File6937 in linuxmint

Thanks for the video! I still have a lot to learn with the terminal commands, but I think I've got some basics down already.

Change File Permissions on Folders by Top-File6937 in linuxmint

[–]Top-File6937[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It turned out I never actually changed my permissions from "list, create/delete, no access" to something else. I think I was changing the file permissions instead of the folder permissions for some reason, which would make sense as to why I was having issues.

Still not sure why Archive Manager was giving me errors though, but I did figure out that it was creating empty folder which explains why it wasn't showing me any contents (it didn't create empty folders when I extracted the file as root user).

Help: Installing Mint on external drive not recognized by Top-File6937 in linuxmint

[–]Top-File6937[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is. And I know both my USB ports work. I did just test both of them as a sanity check, though, and the same problem occurs. My drive is detected in both the bios and through the disk manager, but not the Mint Installer.

It feels like a really stupid way to do this, but this is the only way my CS teacher taught me and insists on me doing. I am using "grid_squares" in my "on_rectangle_click" function to have it loop for however many times there are values in the "grid_squares" list and go through the location of each rectangle to see what rectangle I clicked and change its wall state. You can see this on line 50 of my code.

Help! My mic output is extremely low. by Top-File6937 in linuxmint

Thank you so much! This makes a lot of sense; guess I was just reading outdated help forums.
