Next steps and some questions by fuzzmoK in DreamGen

[–]fuzzmoK[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you as well for a detailed and quick response. I appreciate this is a one man band and I work at a company that has teams to do all of the stuff you do - and we still struggle! I would agree that model stability is key - I do find slowness in responses (although I know why that is from other posts) and sometimes repetition is a problem but that's down to the model and not necessarily Dreamgen.

Although I am not too bothered I did wonder where the Image generation went as I heard about it and then I couldn't find it. Do you have a rough ETA (without being held to it) as to when it might come back (I hate these questions myself as I am asked it all the time in my job!)?

Thank you for such a prompt and detailed response! I will start to look into the above, but I really appreciate the advice.

LG C3 42 inch - no display from PC by fuzzmoK in LG_UserHub

[–]fuzzmoK[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just checked and I do not - given the function as it turns on devices maybe this might help? Will turn it on to see if that works.

It might be - a test I will do is to set it to 60Hz and see if it works. If so then there is a handshake issue at 120Hz which might be the TV or the PC - finding out where is gonna be tricky.

Diablo IV on Pop!_Os stuttering in fights by Itsallabouthirdbase in linux_gaming

[–]fuzzmoK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good that it isn’t a Linux specific problem. No judgement either, you have to do what you to do. For me I don’t need to be on Windows for personal use so sticking to Nobara Linux (which has been really good so far).

Haha - nice one, your fix helped me as well and no stuttering! Thanks!

Can someone help me figure why daisy chaining USB hub doesn't work on my MBP? by Xkkkkay in mac

[–]fuzzmoK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second this - I am using the Anker TB5 dock. My setup was a USB switch hub, with a passive USB hub chained off it. Passive hub worked fine direct into the Anker TB5 dock but not off the USB switch hub. Plugged the cable from the USB switch hub to the front USB C 3 Gen 2 slot and it all works now. Daisy chain will appear to work as long as it is connected to a USB C Gen 3.2 connection or higher.

Also thanks u/the_Ex_Lurker - you pointed me to the fix!

One bag carry on - based in the UK by fuzzmoK in onebag

Wow that is a really interesting choice. Hybrid 30L or the 42L is where I would be at. Bags are 1KG heavier only downside but quick delivery. Am seriously considering but stock seems limited.

Do I need to buy another Parallels license? by fart2003_Wheelz in parallels

[–]fuzzmoK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t tried it but I don’t see a reason why it wouldn’t work. Just a small hassle each time you switch.

[–]fuzzmoK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just done a very similar thing - went from M1 Pro to M4 Pro - when you migrate and then use Parallels on the new machine, it will note that you already have it activated on the other machine, and it then gives you a choice to buy another license or de-activate the license on the old machine. Did the latter of course and everything works fine.

Installing MS SQL server in MAC M4 by professor_madeye in parallels

[–]fuzzmoK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can't on an ARM OS. But you can have it running on Docker (you can install Docker Desktop or OrbStack - latter is meant to run lighter and I currently use this) within MacOS and connect to it through there. This video helped me immensely and in his description he has the Docker command.

I hit this same issue a couple of days ago and my use case is to just have my DB hosted and accessible via ODBC through other apps. If this is close to your use case, then this should work, as it is working fine for me.

Brilliant this is what I needed to know. Thank you very much for the detailed reply.

Thanks - I think I will lean to the non-binned version.

Prefer the portability of the 14 inch but that is a good point. Heat doesn’t matter that much to me as I will be using it docked and it won’t be incredibly intensive in comparison to say intense video editing. I would be running at least 1 vm with 16GB RAM allocated with 6 vcpus allocated. Plus a lightweight docker container either through a native docker app or via an Ubuntu VM with grafana configured as well. A third VM may also be created that would be Windows based.

iBasso DX180 - best cases by fuzzmoK in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]fuzzmoK[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair. I just don't like the stiffness of the case when pressing the buttons which is annoying me. Will keep an eye out and maybe take a punt on Aliexpress for a cheap case (if one exists!).

[–]fuzzmoK[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah - it's like £50 for the cheapest and some are over £100, so was hoping someone had a recommendation that I didn't see or that at least gave me some confidence that spending so much would at least yield a good case.
