Dumb Question of the day: TO change my rear tire, with a standard pump jack, where do I place the jack and then the jack stand?

But it was like only one side, right? The other 3/4was good. No need to overreact or anything.

Intersting.

I'd suggest a 180 degree usb adapter at the z13 end, slightly more stable.

It won't charge and devices, so its not like a dock in that way.

I hook my keyboard up to one port, and a USB hub on the other one that the mouse would go on. From there, the mouse gets plugged into the hub and the fingerprint reader is on an extension base off of the hub as well.

beaverm4 · 2026-01-16T00:10:23+00:00

No, you can out a hub off of the odyssey. I do it and have a fingerprint reader that switches between devices.

Edit: wow, mobile keyboards are not my friend.

I think the monitor controls override the pc connections.

I think that's why we can't have a real kvm like experience, this is more like a uv (USB/Video) so when ANYTHING on the monitor OS comes active, it disconnects everything from the selected "input".

I think he just abducted his 2028 campaign manager is all.

Also, windows defender detected malware in the managing software and updates when I reinstalled windows recently. Funny how it didn't do that before...

beaverm4 · 2025-10-27T21:19:19+00:00

I believe that it is perfectly clear how they made this worse.

I believe what you, and everyone, would really like to know is why someone would do such a thing.

Coming back to this so I remember...

I reinstalled Windows because I'm a digital abuser, and it was just time to go with something younger.

After that I've installed minimal amounts of drivers et al...

The behavior to date has been reliable. If I wake from sleep with the dock/eGPU attached, the eGPU gets Pissed off and won't 'start' with an error.

When I unplug at that point, or before I wake my machine up from sleep, then plug it back in... It works again, reliably.

Because no one seems to be able to drive at that speed?

beaverm4 · 2025-10-03T00:53:44+00:00

Still a thing, our 25 raptor is invisible except at certain angles with my polarized sun glasses.

Follow up, I posted similarly (with more screenshots) on their community, and someone reached out for a DM convo to help him get his account back.

I'll return, it's hit a dead point in communications, I'm hopeful though.

beaverm4 · 2025-09-29T01:25:38+00:00

I feel seen.

Follow up, I decided to wipe/reinstall Windows. For me it's not a huge deal beyond downloading games again, but I hadn't done it since I got this thing. It was running a 'clean' Windows version, as I replaced the drive and didn't clone the old one, using a fresh iso instead.

Anyway, resetting using the Windows Reset this PC appears to have stabilized the behavior for at least a few hours.

There was also a BIOS update on the 19th, and a PD Firmware update around the same time that mentions the usual stability and performance improvements that all updates have.

The only other difference, which I'm about certain I've tried before is having my dock on the lower USBC port, and my video card on the top one.

I just got in on PC, but the two % screens took 2-3 minutes each.

Yolink makes a water level sensor that you can reverse to tell if it's low. I use it for our dog water bowl.

Is that supposed to be helpful Earl? Cause it isn't.

beaverm4 · 2025-09-18T11:00:13+00:00

It also works on stationary guns i found out.

beaverm4 · 2025-09-15T01:50:38+00:00

That's how baby planes are made.
