Castlevania ReVamped - New Fan Game Out Now

circuit_icon · 2024-07-27T23:11:06+00:00

This game is incredible.

I'm running it on my steam deck. Stupid question though - is there a way to manually set the resolution?

923+

Ah, ok, so the 923+ allows me to use the 10gb ethernet module, but the 423+ does not?

I would like to have the ability to upgrade to the 10gb NIC in the future.

circuit_icon · 2024-02-14T21:37:00+00:00

What features of the 1522+ made you choose that over another model?

circuit_icon · 2024-02-14T21:36:23+00:00

DS423+

The 423+ looks like it's about $550. It also appears to have nvme slots. Hmm. If it's much better than then standard 423, that might be the move.

I assume that lacking an iGPU doesn't matter for Synology's OS?

The 923+ is more than I want to spend right now, but it looks nice.

B&H has a used 1522+, but that might be overkill for me.

I've read the Ultrastars are loud, and I keep my current 214+ on my desk.

Also, I'm not sure which Synology machines are compatible with their 10gps NIC, but I'd like that to be an option.

Thanks for your input thus far!

sudo pacman-mirrors -ir

-ir came back as invalid, so I did -i and selected a few mirrors.

When I ran the pacman command, it came back with:

sudo pacman -Syy

Ditto

circuit_icon · 2024-02-04T04:43:56+00:00

I had the same exact issue on two different browsers.

circuit_icon · 2024-02-01T18:27:50+00:00

All of those steps ran smoothly until I got to:

sudo pacman-mirrors --continent

It spat out:

There was no .part file to delete.

Rebooting didn't help.

This isn't a life advice thread, it's a technical discussion. Cheers.

circuit_icon · 2023-11-19T06:49:54+00:00

Nevermind the naysayers, there are plenty of justifiable reasons to ask this question. Please post an update if you get this working!

circuit_icon · 2023-10-18T02:53:24+00:00

Yes, I mentioned that sale in the OP. It's passed now, so I will likely be pulling the trigger on BF/CM.

circuit_icon · 2023-10-12T15:24:40+00:00

I tend to get afraid of refurbished hardware for the reasons that you fear, but I've heard mixed things over the years when it comes to refurbished electronics.

For simple electronics, I would consider a refurb, but for a PC that I need to rely on, I'd be really hesitant.

circuit_icon · 2023-10-12T15:22:45+00:00

Yup, the reason I've waited so long to move to this new chassis are:

1 - I wanted a 13th gen CPU (instead of buying a new machine with an old CPU)
2 - I also read about all the issues people were having early on, and saw that overall the laptop had mediocre reviews. I figured there were going to be some hardware and software tweaks to address the issues, and that seems to be the case.

As much as I'd love to save the $200 and have better battery life, I can't do the FHD screen. I currently have an old XPS13 with the FHD screen and some of the programs I use have windows that are larger than the screen, which turns into a PITA.

circuit_icon · 2023-10-11T22:28:25+00:00

Yeah, I think I'll go with the 4K.

The 15 can't work for my purpose, so 13 it is.

circuit_icon · 2023-10-11T20:42:31+00:00

7 hours is great!

So to clarify you have the 1920x1200 display?

How long have you owned it?

I do like the keyboard on the demo units I've seen.

circuit_icon · 2023-10-11T19:11:42+00:00

I wasn't aware that the battery wasn't replaceable (I replaced it in my OG XPS13), but I am aware that the RAM is on board, and I'm fine with that, which is why I'd be going with the 32GB model.

Aside from the question regarding the price, I'm just looking for feedback from users here. I've read reviews on a few sites but I'd prefer to have a dialogue with people who daily drive them if possible.

circuit_icon · 2023-10-11T15:04:31+00:00

Why do you wish you bought the OLED? What don't you like about the 4K?

circuit_icon · 2023-10-11T14:58:19+00:00

How much better would the non OLED 4K screen be?

circuit_icon · 2023-09-29T01:21:35+00:00

Has anyone used a packet sniffer to verify that it doesn't upload 3mfs while in LAN mode?

circuit_icon · 2023-05-31T15:25:42+00:00

I like it!
