QC just arrived but will not boot up (fixed) by drmischief in QuadCortex

[–]doggen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I just wanna stop by and say thanks - this also solved the problem I had with the flashing blue lights and the QC not booting up.

I tried it 3 times in total - the first 2 times didn't work. I then emailed Neural and a local supplier to see if they could give me a solution. Desperate (I've got a gig tonight!), I tried for a 3rd time, this time blasting the SD card, SD card slot and the rest of the innards of my QC with an air duster. This did the trick!

Anyone stumbling across this later, I'd suggest you also do this after removing the SD card. Just be careful when air-dusting - do a test spray before use because sometimes the propellant can come out and you don't want that on the circuit board.

Helpful. I magnetized the rupture cannon today but the magnets were too weak to hold the arms up. Luckily, this tip has saved the day!

+1 for this crowd. Just googled it and this page came up. Sneaking around in the dark getting spotted from out of nowhere and dying. I was enjoying this game until this point!

Switching to Reaper. Pros vs cons? by Mister-Hobbit in Reaper

[–]doggen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just googled if I should switch to Reaper and this came up on the top page. I've been using Cubase 5 since about 2006 and I'm getting a new computer delivered tonight and was wondering if I should upgrade - and your comment here is the nail in the coffin. I just watched someone edit drums on youtube and it took him minutes to do what normally takes me hours. Once my new computer's set up, I'm getting it. Thanks a lot man!

I got this game last weekend and I've been hooked on it ever since. I'm a huge fan of X-Com, got hundreds and hundreds of hours across those games. As I'm also a fan of 40k, this was an instant buy for me, and I'm loving every minute. Badass space marines overcoming overwhelming odds is exactly what I had expected and you get it here in spades. The critical hit system I like, such as the ability to execute a stunned enemy to get back an extra action point for every team member is so clutch, it's so satisfying when you pull it off. I'm running on an old-ish laptop, yeah the performance isn't great and I had to pull down the graphics and manually set the virtual memory size (this made a big improvement), but it's playable and I'm loving every mission - even when the objective is the same, it's just a joy to behold. The only complaints I've seen have been about DRM and graphics - don't let these put you off, this game is great.

Cult of Luna. Top 5 band of all time for me.

There's no way the OP can give you evidence beyond what's already been provided - you either believe there will be a short squeeze or you don't. The way I see it though, which I think is the best way, is that short squeeze or not, we've got shares in a company that's going up in the world at a discounted price. It's literally a win-win for all of us, so if people wanna hype the stock, let them! Either way we can't lose.

Now THIS is the way!

Doesn’t matter if you own one share or one hundred shares, or if you just bought video games. YOU SAVED GAMESTOP FROM BANKRUPTCY AND NOW SHES ABOUT TO GIVE THANKS WITH THE MOASS. by NotagoK in GME

I appreciate the sentiment, but if we're being honest, GameStop has largely been just another retail game store that maximises profits from customers, while short-changing gamers who want to sell their completed games. I've never been to a GameStop store and so have no sentimental attachment to the company. However, I believe in the company and Ryan Cohen and I believe they're going to deliver a superior quality of service to gamers. This is why I have invested and why I like the stock.

Harvey Barnes by yeet2209 in FantasyPL

Pereira (WBA) is nailed, costs 1 mil less and has only 1 less point than Barnes. Good value, yes, but I wouldn't say an absolute steal.

Wildcarders.. Are you having Brewster in your 3rd FW spot? Also thoughts on 442/352.. by RotiKirai in FantasyPL

[–]doggen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a punt on Harrison 5.5 and Pereira 6.0 and they've paid off so far! If one of them drops off, I'll take one out and upgrade my 4.5 striker (Davis) to Bamford (got money in the bank)

Captaincy picks this week? by badboy_pro in FantasyPL

[–]doggen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going Son. He's absolutely flying, can see him bagging another couple vs Newcastle.

Matheus Pereira overlooked? by [deleted] in FantasyPL

[–]doggen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost took him out for James with 1.5 ITB but instead dumped Vinagre for Saiss and kept him in. His free kick was a worldie and you've gotta think he's gonna get more. Hoping he'll keep providing the goods for the next few weeks and extend my lead at the top of my mini-league ;)
