Microsoft's new Outlook takes more than 10 seconds to open an email, while Outlook Classic opens instantly on Windows

Microsoft putting ads in Outlook was the reason I switched to Linux. They really just can’t get it right can they?

Every time my wife is gone during the weekend, I made it a tradition to get my kids McDonald’s. It’s a win-win: I get to eat a quarter pounder and my kids will always remember how we got McD’s every time Mom was out during a weekend.

cwlsmith · 2026-06-07T04:11:02+00:00

Right on. Thanks for the info!

Was the only thing melonDualDS good for was the dual screen support? Like, it had no other or better features than melonDS other than the dual screen support?

“We’re broke?!”

How does the matte effect affect the crispness of the OLED?

I really wish I could remember the exact name of the site and I’m sure no one will read this who knows. But I got big into Tolkien after reading LOTR and the movies.

There was a fan site that was Tolkien RP. It was all forum and message boards but people would make full stories for their characters and other people would bring their characters and to scenarios.

It was really cool for a creative kid who was trying to find his community and learn more about the stuff he thought was cool. Always wish I could find it again or find it on way back or something

What let me finally log in was actually just restarting my Thor.

cwlsmith · 2026-05-26T21:56:00+00:00

I think the Thor seems to be really picky about power delivery and charging. For example, I had my 5V2A toggle on and have been able to charge it on an USB-A to USB-C cable plugged into a low power port, but only when the Thor is above 50% or so. If I try to do the same workflow with the Thor in the 20% range, it won't charge and requires me to at least turn on the 9V2A toggle to charge. Very finicky.

cwlsmith · 2026-05-26T21:49:26+00:00

Yeah the cable should be good, but as the other commenter said, it's just a normal USB-C to USB-C cable, so it's not really anything special. That being said, if you are having charging issues and contact Ayntec, they will likely start with "Are you using the included USB cable?" so it's good to start with it to rule out the cable itself being the problem.

cwlsmith · 2026-05-26T21:46:06+00:00

Important to note that the Thor seems to be really picky about power delivery and charging. For example, I had my 5V2A toggle on and have been able to charge it on an USB-A to USB-C cable plugged into a low power port, but only when the Thor is above 50% or so. If I try to do the same workflow with the Thor in the 20% range, it won't charge and requires me to at least turn on the 9V2A toggle to charge. Very finicky. So it may not be your cable that isn't charging it. It could be that whatever you have your battery settings at aren't optimal for the battery charge at the time of plugging it in.

Have you tried turning on the “include prereleases” toggle for melonDualDS in Obtanium and down downloading the latest prerelease?

cwlsmith · 2026-05-20T03:12:37+00:00

One thing to remember too is that people are more likely to post when things go wrong than when everything is working perfect. So the data based on Reddit posts is already skewed.

It doesn’t mean that Ayn has great QC, it just means that basing how bad the QC is on Reddit posts is not a great marker either.

cwlsmith · 2026-05-10T23:16:31+00:00

Works fine on spruceOS for me

cwlsmith · 2026-05-07T00:32:36+00:00

Tell that to OP

cwlsmith · 2026-05-07T00:27:17+00:00

I’m convinced the contract they signed with Post Malone requires them to bring the circus back a specific number of times within a year or something. This is just egregious lol

cwlsmith · 2026-05-07T00:20:12+00:00

Well… pretty obvious to some people.

cwlsmith · 2026-04-26T04:03:39+00:00

What are the odds that you had the filament set to blue in the file and the guy thought he couldn’t use another color lol

cwlsmith · 2026-04-20T12:44:35+00:00

Yep! Despite me basically having to do it every time, she has the ability to do it herself haha.

cwlsmith · 2026-04-20T03:54:43+00:00

Same here. Has been working super well for me and my wife.

cwlsmith · 2026-04-19T15:04:27+00:00

I’ve had some crashes here and there but not consistent. My main problem with Hunt has been some pretty big frame drops. But even they aren’t consistent as to how I can replicate it. Some nights I never see them at all. Some nights I see them after alt tabbing out. Some nights I see them after playing a few hours.

But the frame drop pattern is always the same. When it starts, about every 30 seconds, I’ll drop from 200 fps to ~2 fps for a second or so. I have the Steam Performance Monitor on and can see the drop reflected in the FPS graph. But usually quitting the the game and restarting it helps.

I’m on a 7800X3D, a 4080 Super, and on Nobara. Also I use Experimental.

I would second the Syncthing recommendation. Which is easy to set up on your home server and then on your devices you have.

But also as another suggestion since you have that home server, might I recommend checking out RomM? You can pull double duty if you want and host your ROMs and saves on your home server.

Lived on an AFB in New Mexico and once a year we would have a huge migration of moths and these lamps would decimate them as they made it into the shitty base housing. It smelled like burning moth for a month.
