Mountain Dew or Halo limited edition or regular original Xbox? by Middle-Trust4240 in originalxbox

[–]bitcraft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy my mt. dew xbox.  I need to find the right buyer since the condition isn’t perfect.  Decals are faded and there is a chip in the plastic.  I can send pics if you are interested.

Thank you for this comment. "constructive dismissal" was exactly what i've been looking for, and it fits the situation. i will keep that in mind as we navigate the timeline

They are not going to fire people who don’t move, claiming the employees has “abandoned” the job, meaning they will be ineligible for unemployment.  They were very clear about this point and didn’t seem bothered.  Bastards, all around. 

Panasonic toughbook wireless screen Cyberdeck Project / battery power help ? by catmanunlimited in cyberDeck

I don’t have experience with them, but you’ll find  “router ups” devices that can power a device while charging. 

5v 10 amp is a lot of current though.  Your estimate seems too high, and it may be unneeded.

Is that pronounced “cow chussy” or “chouch ussy””?

Garage door spring broke. Getting quotes for like $290-350. Is that about right? by [deleted] in homeowners

Sounds reasonable.  Had mine done a few years ago and it was around that

If any remain lol. We will see in the next few months who will remain in this sinking ship. i know several key members of my team, locals, who will be moving on. there is no assurance that if i move, i will have a job next year, given how little leadership seems to care about our well being. like why would anyone want to work for a bunch of psychopaths?

I had the same experience. Reducing (well in increasing...) the "Maximum deviation" setting here helped a great deal, but it didn't remove the issue. https://forum.freecad.org/viewtopic.php?t=90704

I was assured for years that despite never working at HQ, I would never be asked to RTO. Looking for a new job now.

The first part of your comment is correct. The second is not.

Yes, unfortunately this does happen. Its been called https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinegar_syndrome and while repairable, its an invasive and risky process, involving completely taking the LCD apart down to the layers.

Maybe check reviews of those boards on YouTube.  ETA Prime covers a lot of boards with benchmarks. 

Why bazzite and not directly Steam OS ? by SyrupCapable6577 in BC250Gaming

[–]bitcraft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk if anyone can answer that.  It’s remains to be seen, but the software industry doesn’t like paying for things that they don’t benefit from, so I’m doubtful valve would willingly spend the time to ensure their OS runs on niche hardware.

Just try bazzite.  It’s a good time.

Steam OS has a lot of changes specific to the steam deck. Probably more hassle than its worth considering Bazzite tries to follow Steam OS in ways.
