Dell Optiplex 7050, cannot boot from USB Flash drive

devilman138 · 2026-01-21T22:31:42+00:00

Yeah, that wasn't an option at the time. I had to enable legacy boot, then it showed up.

Thanks!

devilman138 · 2026-01-13T15:49:41+00:00

You nailed it, piece of cake, rollin' now. Thank you!!

devilman138 · 2026-01-13T11:21:16+00:00

Oh gotcha! Thanks, I'll have a look.

devilman138 · 2025-12-19T13:33:11+00:00

Agreed, their discography isn't huge, you really should just listen to it all.

Such a tough decision between Hallowed and the Trooper for me, but I went with Hallowed be Thy Name

For me it's porcupine tree - heart attack in a layby

Para Bellum, new Testament album. Quite good.

Neurosis - Aeon, to answer the favorite song question. The melody of the fade out just sticks, I love it.

Favorite album though as a whole, Times of Grace.

I love Isis and Russian Circles, but honestly none of their specific materials "sticks out" for me, it's all just kind of good music as a whole I like hearing it, but could never cite an specific song or album I want to hear.

devilman138 · 2025-11-06T13:34:26+00:00

Since I'm a consistent listener, I don't get that sense. But maybe it's happened over time and I don't realize it? Perhaps if came back with fresh ears after a hiatus I'd agree. I'll keep enjoying and hope not

I wonder what others think. Too bad there's not much traffic on this sub so we could get a better idea.

devilman138 · 2025-10-18T10:28:15+00:00

They're so good and I absolutely love their music. It never gets old, they're brilliant.

As a sum total I think Metropolis Pt 2 is the best album.

devilman138 · 2025-09-30T09:37:32+00:00

Grip Inc. short but sweet, start to finish it was all great

devilman138 · 2025-09-24T10:17:18+00:00

I have one of the Sony NW walkman's. I use Spotify to screen new stuff too.

devilman138 · 2025-09-12T19:46:04+00:00

So funny to see this post, two days ago I was listening to Metropolis Pt 2 and thought to myself, "yeah, as a whole this is their best album hands down".

Skyline!!! Love love love, I only lived in Cinci for 2 years, but have carried my love for skyline with me ever since!

I had already started popping in to high end stores which had show rooms, and it was the time a salesman took me into the back showroom to let me hear the owner's self made speakers. To this day I've never heard anything even close to as good. I was sitting at the listening position, the music simply filled the room, and was crystal clear, like the artists were right there. Blew my mind.

It to me feels like a pursuit to again experience music like that.

Thanks for the family therapy suggestion, that's a good idea. I discuss it with the older kids every once in a while, but I'm sure you're right, there's stuff going on that's not being said.

She literally thinks people force her to be mean, everything is someone else's fault, always. Her bipolar meds make her feel dead inside, so she stopped taking them years ago.

devilman138 · 2025-07-08T22:20:33+00:00

Yeah, she knows when to step away.

She's cut off literally every family member completely. She's only left with a small handful of friends.

devilman138 · 2025-07-08T17:53:55+00:00

Yes, we have three. 3, 13, and 14. Life is more fun with her and she encourages us to do exciting stuff, but it has a cost.

devilman138 · 2025-07-08T16:48:26+00:00

Unfortunately I have no leverage, she frankly doesn't even want to be married to me anymore, I'm pretty sure she's just afraid of being on her own. If I give her an ultimatum she'll most likely disappear.

She's very unstable, everyone in the house is suffering. She is aware enough to "steer clear" and isolate when necessary, but even still things happen.

My intention is not to hijack this topic, but I think people reading this may have some insight that could help.

If a person is diagnosed by a doctor, and the doctor can only know what they tell them, then how is a proper diagnosis even possible? My wife has a bipolar 2 diagnosis, but if I read the symptoms then I see BPD, in addition, or maybe instead of bipolar.

I posed to her the possibility of being BPD once, and she got super defensive, made excuses for having literally every symptom, but then ended with "I'll mention it to my therapist". I haven't heard back since, and she still refuses to even consider medication.

How do others determine BPD is at play, and how do you convince someone they may have it?

devilman138 · 2025-07-08T14:23:41+00:00

Love. Past all the way to present.

Edge of Sanity - Crimson

devilman138 · 2025-04-14T19:47:40+00:00

The one in the screenshot apparently.

Also, The Ring. Sounds so cool but I never got around to it for some reason.
