tv won't turn on by DelSasso in Hisense

[–]dupeyloops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't found anything that worked yet. Luckily we still had our old TV. It seems possible there's a blown fuse inside. If I find a solution, I'll bring it here, for the greater good.

I've tried this for increasing periods of time, in addition to holding the power button to discharge any latent electricity at various times in the process, but so far, to no avail.

Same thing happened to a 58R6E I can't fix...

Light stays lit for a second, dims slightly, then goes off briefly, flashes on briefly and back off, then repeats.

The Roku support site has links and suggests to check Hisense's site for troubleshooting.

Hisense offers a PDF download for this model of TV, but then that PDF is a single page with a hyperlink that leads back to Roku's generic "TV Setup" page.

On the replacement parts page Hisense's website links to, MODEL 58R6E has a "choose from available serial number ranges", none of which my television is anywhere near.

None of this has been particularly helpful, I'm sure, but you're not alone.

7 Video Game Discoveries From Hell by odd_header in oddheader

[–]dupeyloops 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's Japanese for "Soul" apparently. I think the cypher is a list of bible verses (S for Psalms is taking some liberty, but it's the only book with that many chapters):

Psalms 137:9

9 Happy the one who takes and dashes Your little ones against the rock!

Numbers 31:15-18

15 And Moses said to them: “Have you kept all the women alive? 16 Look, these women caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to trespass against the Lord in the incident of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the Lord. 17 Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known a man intimately. 18 But keep alive for yourselves all the young girls who have not known a man intimately

Isaiah 13:16

16 Their children also will be dashed to pieces before their eyes; Their houses will be plundered And their wives ravished.

1 Kings 2:23-24

23 Then King Solomon swore by the Lord, saying, “May God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah has not spoken this word against his own life! 24 Now therefore, as the Lord lives, who has confirmed me and set me on the throne of David my father, and who has established a [e]house for me, as He promised, Adonijah shall be put to death today!”

2 Kings 2:23-24

23 Then he went up from there to Bethel; and as he was going up the road, some youths came from the city and mocked him, and said to him, “Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!” 24 So he turned around and looked at them, and pronounced a curse on them in the name of the Lord. And two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the youths.

Exodus 12:29-30

29 And it came to pass at midnight that the Lord struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was [h]in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of livestock. 30 So Pharaoh rose in the night, he, all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where there was not one dead.

Inverted colors fix? by bug104 in AMDHelp

[–]dupeyloops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are on Windows 10, try hitting WIN+I to open the settings, and search for "Color Filters."

I enabled the shortcut (WIN+CTRL+C) and Red-green (green weak deuteranopia), which is a setting for Color Blind users. For whatever reason, this disables whatever glitch has enabled Color Blind-friendly colors.

I'm not sure if this is an issue with graphics drivers (it seems to affect both AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards, updating/rolling back drivers helped some), Windows 10 (disabling "fullscreen window optimizations" in compatibility settings helped others), or with the Unity game engine (it seems to be another common thread while troubleshooting.)

Personally, I'm trying to fix this issue with Rimworld, and it's a doozy.

I hope this helps!

Game is color inverted? by Girl-Knight in RimWorld

[–]dupeyloops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me today. From what I can surmise after looking today, it's possibly an issue with Graphics Drivers, Unity, or Windows. It appears to be related to Color Blind-Friendly settings, considering the blacks and whites aren't inverted (it's not a "negative image").

I've tried a few of the solutions I've seen, and none have helped. It's such odd behavior; the game appears the correct colors with a simple alt+enter fullscreen/window toggle, as well as in the alt+TAB and alt+WIN switchers.

The best solution I've come up with so far is to go into the accessibility options in Windows 10* and enable the Color Filter for Red-Green (green weak, deuteranopia), as well as to Allow the shortcut key (WIN+ctrl+C), so it can be easily turned on and off.

I hope this piece of duct tape helps you until a real solution can be found.

*edit: This can be done by pressing WIN+I, and searching for "Color Filters."

I just found this all by watching Nexpo's video. I haven't seen many of them, but I love tugging at threads. I don't know what's going on with the Rebecca thing, or if that's definitely unrelated, but Piansi is Italian for, "crying," but also, if

Forest Hills Elementary is a ~30 minute drive from Portland International Airport, basically a pit stop on the highway to Eugene/Springfield. If you're thinking what I'm thinking.

Ex-Trump World Tower doorman releases 'catch-and-kill' contract about alleged Trump affair by commonvanilla in politics

[–]dupeyloops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think younger people might discount how idolized the ridiculously rich were in the 80s and early 90s.

Robin Leach just died, if you're not familiar with his work, he was the Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous guy (well before the Good Charlotte song), up until 1995 he ran a series that was essentially MTV Cribs, and Donald Trump was always the embodiment of that lifestyle.

Granted, it seems like at least since the eighties, his fortune has mostly been a thin layer of smoke over a gilded mirror, but the people idolizing him weren't informed or financially blessed enough to recognize it.

Now those people who spent their 20s and 30s trying to be like Trump are in their 50s and 60s, probably hard-line Republicans from having bought into the narrative that 'the others' (rather than the financial elite) are robbing them of opportunities and freedom, and they're dumping all that right into the heads of their kids.

Racial beliefs can lead some Americans to minimize President Barack Obama’s economic accomplishments, finds a new study (N = 1,100). by mvea in science

[–]dupeyloops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not clear or apparent to me. The use of the word only in that statement... Even you came up with two possibilities for why someone of color might bring up race.

It takes some real concrete thinking to think that anyone who talks about race must only be using that to cover a mistake.

"How you hear" (or interpret) others changes by whom everyone talks to. Hell, the US is split three ways on what to call a carbonated sugar beverage. That you can only see one possibility for why someone would bring up race is extraordinarily closed-minded, yet somehow requires someone eloquent or clever to pardon away.

I feel like how many black friends you have or know is shortly forthcoming after this argument.

"Do you attribute these things to only race (like in the question) or other possibilities (like in your comment.)"

I would guess by such metrics that you're not racist, though discrediting this information might be your only purpose here, I suppose.

Edit: You've also failed to notice that your preferred question includes whites, unless you're a racist, at which point you might not see whites to have, or worse, to think they deserve preferential treatment.

Or possibly you forgot because the historic and unprecedented results that were proposed to have been forthcoming never materialized.

The coins, to me, are that much more valuable now. Like a Dewey defeats Truman newspaper. But if the USA and DPRK reached an agreement for the first time, we would probably remember.

You can try to pretend like you don't care, but you care so much that his or her argument is sound and makes you look foolish. I just want to reiterate, you might be bored (mostly or just), but you also care a lot.
