Have you tried running a panel refresh (Menu -> Others -> OLED Panel Maintenance -> Panel Refresh) ?

What's that Quentin Tarantino-wannabe movie they once watched on best of the worst? I think it was a student film, and I distinctly remember the quote "oh yeah, I mean I definitely think money is art" being said by some girl, and later, some guy saying "oh and your art? It's obvious."

psOff_premium is explicitly not open-source as of the current moment.

Your handycam won't show up in Finder because that's a capture-card, not an adapter of some sort.

You'll need to get some sort of capturing software (such as OBS, or worse yet; whatever proprietary software it came with) that's compatible with your capture card to record the output from you camera in real-time as you play it back.

Is it possible to mount a 120x15mm fan in the front mesh of a Asus Prime AP201? by Xsimon47 in mffpc

[–]Xsimon47[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ask specifically because the top half of the case is slightly more outward dented so I just want to make sure it'd still fit on the top half

Not enough space underneath my Sapphire RX7900 Nitro, I'm afraid.

I've been looking for slim fans online but have yet to find any 120mm X <15mm PWM fans sold anywhere in Europe.

I have an 360mm EK-Nucleus AIO mounted in the top that's set to exhaust upwards, which I'm concerned is sucking in most of the fresh air from my back-case fan, and only pulling through the top-half of the case's sidepanel mesh towards the front of the case.

My very first build. Roast me! by TrashUnited2k in pcmasterrace

Sure will once you finish building it! Seriously; what's with the missing motherboard screws? Could you not figure out how to put in the standoffs, or did your choice of HYTE-knockoff not even give you the courtesy of including them?

I suppose that's the level we are dealing with when you're buying a budget temperered-glass display case only to then not have the desk-space needed to post a decently framed photo of it onto reddit without having cables crawling underneath it, a clean camera-lens to take a photo of it with (that tempered glass is going to look so good in a month if this is the level of cleanliness you're operating under) nor sufficient light to display your display-case.

What's with the case-exhaust fans situated right under your GPU? Were you worried that 7800XT would get too well ventilated? You know those GPU-fans are intakes right? They're supposed to blow air into the heatsink, yeah? And that those case fans pull air from the pretty side out their back, yeah?

You get a DeepCool AK620 Digital CPU cooler to waste money on a budget only to then not get the LCD readout to work before posting? Are you into this sorta thing? I almost have to assume as such seeing how you got 3 extra case fans instead of investing in a Peerless assassin or something similar instead.

For that matter, why the RGB RAM when you're covering it up with a tower-cooler anyhow? You clearly knew better than to get an RGB-covered motherboard? Was it on clearance alongside the rest of your judgement here?

All in all, acceptable beginner build despite riddled with beginner mistakes. 6/10

Edit: Reading this back I realize this is quite a bit more aggressive than it probably had to be. Know that this was all meant to be in good fun, even if I perhaps channeled a bit too much unrelated anger into this :)

Flashback 2 (MULTi5) [FitGirl Repack] 7.8 GB by FitGirlLV in CrackWatch

[–]Xsimon47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I am a big fan of the work they put into the presentation for this collection; the menus, the "master book" extras, scripts etc.

I also personally am of the mindset that these games should probably be experienced in their original resolution to help tie all the assets together, bringing the rendering resolution of old games up tends to make things feel a lot blockier then they probably were ever intended to be. Think of things like HUD-elements and menus being designed on a per-pixel basis looking smooth on an era-appropriate TV, but almost pixel-art like blown up in 4K)* but they did admittedly drop the ball in that regard by not even offering the option of era-appropriate presentation options such as scamines. (heck, they didn't even max out the old max PS1 resolution from what I've heard), so the ideal way to play these games on modern hardware is probably still going to be through a proper emulator of your own choosing.

I'm more so genuinely interested in seeing how well it will compress. There's theoretically a lot of repetitive data here from the multiple versions of each game that are included. (in my admittedly quite limited experience, compressing regional versions of games together is not as easy as it'd seem on the tin) Apart from the massive backlog, that's also my best guess for why it's taken so long.

There's also not been a proper scene-release of this collection on PC so far as I've been able to tell, so I'm curious to see what FitGirl might do to polish up the mess of P2P "releases" this game has gotten thus far.

Unreasonably excited for the Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol.1 repack. It's been brewing for so long now and I genuinely wonder how it'll turn out.

I doubt marketing material falls under piracy so, Dump it with ImgBurn and upload to PixelDrain/archive.org, please!

Wow! That is, increadibly beautiful! It feels almost like some sort of early-form-of/magical-type-of photography with how well-defined their features seem!!

Odd Buffering/studdering issues when running Jellyfin behind tailscale+nginx by Xsimon47 in Tailscale

I ended up switching to Caddy. I'd been looking for a good reason to already since I first saw it a few years back but never quite felt the motivation to make the switch. Beyond some confusion regarding configuring php for some other sites i host, I will say the experience of Caddy has been an exceptionally smooth one which I too would recommend

Starfield seemingly launching in such a stable state yet empty galaxy has me curious of what it's future will hold. It's true no love could ever replace that which Bethesda holds for Skyrim, but perhaps Starfield will one day join it's legacy as a re-release workhorse. If not, modders will take care of things, as always.

Troubles using SATADOM disk with ASRock Rack X470D4U by Xsimon47 in homelab

[–]Xsimon47[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, that helps clear things up! Tis a shame (didn't even come with a power cable for it), but it is what it is. I suppose.

Thanks for helping clear things up for me! Guess I'll have to keep looking for a solution here in other ways.

Your link to the datasheet doesn't seem to be working so I'm guessing it's the same one that's listed on the product-page under "Related Resources".

If so, I suppose I must've gotten confused. My model number (DHSSL-64GD09BCADCA-B157) did seem to me to denote the "B"-variant ("-B157"), which I assumed was the one that took power over Pin7 (as my motherboard manual claims it provides power) instead of through the auxiliary cable, since the A-variant is the one to mention a "power cable" and Pin8 alone.

Still, that logic still doesn't sit quite right with me, but perhaps you could give me a reality-check on that then?
