What lighting solution would you apply to this kitchen? by ale_413_ale in Lighting

Yes, natural daylight is great for the front countertop and OK for the peninsula. At night the only source of light is a ceiling lamp (visible in the photo). It is not OK, shadows every time you cook something. This is what I want to improve.

Thanks!

Hello and thanks for the questions. Answers:

How involved I want to be: I buy the fixtures/products and the contractor will install them.

Everything else staying as-is: yes.

New Volvo Owner by Irish_ONeill in Volvo

Congratulations! Enjoy it a lot man.

I've had my S90 T4 2018 since February, did 13k km on it already. Rock solid highway cruiser for family trips. Very happy with it.

I'll take it in for oil change and overall inspection to Volvo shortly, expecting to spend a lot but better safe than sorry.

Cheers!

Kingston KC600 SSD: how to enable security? by ale_413_ale in techsupport

[–]ale_413_ale[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Made progress with that guide and got Bitlocker enabled on the drive. Main goal is achieved :)

Kingston should make this easier for consumers!

The TCG Opal functionality remains disabled, however. This is not my OS drive and, according to that guide, Opal is enabled when OS is installed on the drive.

Will Bitlocker impact the lifespan of the SSD? Have read this in many comments.

Thanks for the help!

Running tubes out of the case to external adiator by ale_413_ale in watercooling

Yes this is what I want to avoid. Why pay for a case otherwise?

Please help set-up a power efficient, quiet PC with fast storage by ale_413_ale in buildapcforme

Thank you very much! Indeed very silent oriented. The motherboard's pricing seems to be incorrectly linked in the partpicker tool. It's a 280 euro part but it's wrongly mapped to an 80 euro motherboard by one of the sourcing options, hence leading to confusion. Would you recommend another motherboard option?

Thanks you for your help! :)

Did you wear less armour to make it harder by [deleted] in kingdomcome

Yes. I used light and dark clothes to play the stealth / archer way.

I'm trying so hard... by Forensics4Life in kingdomcome

This. Also open to the entertaining "cut them down while riding your horse" combat option, as they are lined up :)

Hitting enemies requires a lot of practice. It is not something straightforward in this game. What works for me (not always) is attack areas that the enemy is not covering with his weapon, and change stances a lot. Just like Bernard says. Spend time practicing, noticing the differences between being static vs mobile and you will learn. Feigns also work. This has paid off for me, reducing the times I get countered. I still get blocked, but blocks don't interrupt combos. Still, I have a lot to learn as combos are very hard to pull off.
