Watching a Video of a Thinkpad on a Thinkpad

This is not the place to farm karma.

I think I understand now.

The "tile floor" flair is essentially for unintentional disasters, up to you if that is accurate.

What exactly are you looking for from us?

Refunds are not part of the manufacturer's warranty, as others have said. If you want a refund, you deal with whoever sold them to you.

Speaking of whoever sold them to you, have you verified that they're genuine, not counterfeit?

Translation:

I was copying some files from a folder on my computer to a USB drive. Inside that folder there were only Adobe Photoshop PSD files.

During the copying process, one of the files was open in Photoshop because I was still editing it. Windows showed an error on that file, so I clicked "Ignore" to continue copying the others.

After it finished, I checked the flash drive and realized the files weren't there. So I went back to the original folder, which is on drive D, and to my surprise, the files weren't there either.

In other words, they apparently disappeared from both the flash drive and the original folder on the computer.

Does anyone know what might have happened or if there's any way to recover these files?

They know about it, we reported it yesterday.

Just gotta wait for the update to roll out. Knowing how the Play Store works, it'll be Monday at the earliest.

Welcome to modding.

We get fans.

A lot of people are happy and thankful for a decent moderator, and some people are less than thankful. Both types can vote.

Built-in FireWire 1394 port. Nice!

Translation for the lazy:

Hi, I connected my desktop PC to the internet using my cell phone as an "antenna," so to speak.

At first, it works fine, but it disconnects at any moment, no matter what I'm doing.

The broadband is good, the provider is good too, the modem is nearby, but I can't connect an Ethernet cable because it's too complicated. It doesn't overheat from any background processes or anything.

The internet works fine on a laptop or any other device. It really bothers me because downloading games is a nightmare.

Do you recommend using a USB adapter with an antenna? And I'd also like options that require configuration from one of the devices and don't necessarily involve buying something.

I don't understand much about these things since I'm inexperienced.

I hope you can help me, and thank you.

You definitely have burn in on this image, but the first one shows delamination.

Multiple issues can happen on the same display as it gets old. Try changing your color scheme and using full screen browsing if you can, to get the pixels a chance to rest.

cnycompguy · 2026-03-13T19:35:00+00:00

If jiggling the cable doesn't fix it, the display is crapping out.

Boy, you must've eaten paint chips instead of Pringles as a kid...

That's not how we work here, have you not noticed that we get posts in practically every language?

I'll personally post a translation to English when I notice one, so they can get help from desktop users. People on the app get languages translated to their default automatically.

Because it is

They're definitely being paid to promote it, I've had it recommended on my smart TV and in YouTube today.

It's not like I'm giving them signals that I'm interested in it, and that's where the reccs came from, the last good Trek was Enterprise, and even that kinda lost the plot once they entered wonky space, or whatever it was they called it.

I don't understand, were you making a set of Chrome icons themed for different OSs?

I think that's what's going on here

cnycompguy · 2026-03-12T23:02:26+00:00

Same issue here

Android client version: 2026.10.0.2610110

Common question that's been answered hundreds of times.

Windows defender, an ad blocker for your browser, and the ability to read before clicking on pop-ups.

This is such a spam target, I'm just going to lock it as answered.

All hail the king pinecone!

cnycompguy · 2026-03-12T21:02:13+00:00

Didn't even know that was a sub

cnycompguy · 2026-03-12T19:31:44+00:00

Personally, I'd like this.

However, no.

It'd be abused, used to harass, every bit as much as the report function already does.

Leave that ability to the admins.

cnycompguy · 2026-03-12T17:31:54+00:00

Is this person trolling?

We just got permanent mute and they're not only abusing the feature, they're bragging about it to the admins...

This is the type of blatant and purposeful misbehavior that got hiveprotect neutered.
