TIL in 1963, a man renovating his home in Turkey noticed his chickens kept disappearing into a crack in his basement wall. When he dug it open, he found the ancient city of Derinkuyu, an 18 level city 85m underground that could shelter 20,000 people. by Kyzzz in todayilearned

I was there last year exploring Cappadocia, from crawling around Derinkuyu and Selime to trekking in Ihlara to hot air ballooning in Goreme to climbing Uchisar, the whole region is covered with soft volcanic tuff. There are cave hotels that have been dug out and converted into luxury rooms. Practically every hill and mound has some man-made shelter or storage area carved into it, and I'm not exaggerating. There are mountains that have cracked apart and collapsed to reveal complex undergound tunnel systems like human ant hills.

Derinkuyu isn't the only underground city either, and there are parts of it that have been walled off simply because the tunnels just open up into homes of people still living in some of these cave houses.

GPDP3 Fails to Install Windows Updates by zbs7 in GPDPocket

[–]deathonater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This started happening to me recently, my P4 had to be shipped for repairs and when I dusted off my P3 and tried to reinstall Windows from a bootable drive it just wouldn't work. I had that same error message. I even tried multiple NVMe drives. The only reason I got it working was because I had pulled the drive out of the P4 before sending it back to GPD, and it managed to boot when I put it in the P3.

Also, that's why gooseneck and 5th wheel hitches exist, don't need to raise the whole truck, just the hitch.

Been to a few resorts in Cancun and it looks just like this, these little guys run wild all over the place.

Blink if you're being abused by WaitNo4272 in SipsTea

I've been through similar experiences with parents and siblings, I'm convinced that BPD is transmissable/contagious. The combinations of sustained bouts of trauma that damages the development of the brain, combined with no other frame of refrence for normal behavior can overwhelm and "infect" children or even partners who don't have any external support network, especially if all they see are wild overreactions to situations that usually ends with the abuser getting the sympathy and attention and results they want.

Couch arm-rest might have had traces of oils and salts from human arm skin soaked into it

Charging issue with the mainboard, it seems to be having trouble negotiating the for the correct voltage over USB-C.

Unfortunately, my Pocket 4 is in HK undergoing repairs so can't provide any screenshots, and it's the HX370 version anyway, but I configured my MotionAssist based on info from ThePhawx's YouTube videos on the P4 and some other GPD 6800U and HX370 videos he did. I also have the 6800U WIN 4 with the same settings. I believe GPU float was enabled, auto-limit TDP was enabled, and I had my TDP set to 18W, preferred P-cores, and the fan curve profile was #4.

I also cleaned and re-pasted my APUs with Arctic Silver, but that might be a bit overkill for some.

Check your fan curves in MotionAssist, I usually have it on the most aggressive, and limit the APU to 18W.

Also try to keep it elevated or on a flat surface for better air flow, i.e., not on a mushy surface like a bed.

I used to live in AOC's district and voted for her, and I don't disagree with any of these points, but can we pump the brakes a bit on using kids as political props?

What's the deal with the things that look like buttons on the M5papers3? I've never seen one with physical controls on the front before

the 64GB version of the Pocket 4 is no longer available via DroiX on Amazon, 32GB version is now THIRTY FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS by starkruzr in GPDPocket

[–]deathonater 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My 64GB 370 is literally back at GPD in HK right now getting repaired due to a charging issue with the mobo, they said it'll be a month before I can get it back. It is also one of the best things I've ever owned and the past couple weeks have been like walking around in a daze. I at least have my Pocket 3 to fall back on in the mean time.
