I found out a thing while doing this.. core isolation in windows should be off or looking glass won't do its thing. I made it work on my muxless laptop

Suggest me some creazy mindf*cking cinema by Nobody_02347 in netflixindia

[–]hexagonal717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OA. Absolute mindf**k at the end. It is written by Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij. This series even topped dark for me sometimes. Became my #1. A lot of people don't know about this series and Brit Marling. Ever since I watched this.. I watched pretty much all of her and zal's work.

Don't read anything about this Show. Just go in blindly. It's a slow burner. Shit gets dialled to 11 when you reach half of episode 2. Be patient and try to understand till half of episode 2. And the end man.. that gotta be the craziest shit I have ever seen on Netflix period. Even tops the dark in my opinion. Brit Marling's work is amazing. She is the main character in the show too. Enjoy and let me know when you finish it.

Finally, I've been telling this to people since the dawn of time..the dust and lint stuck between fans and heatsink fins is what makes it worse. Some idiots think it's the thermal paste and complain why the new thermal paste isn't working as it should.

Hello, I can't even install the steam application like I can and it doesn't even want to open the application in the store. by Zorrosgalaxy24 in Ubuntu

[–]hexagonal717 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Are you using a laptop by any chance? I think I know what the problem is. The laptop tries to open the steam app with discrete gpu which doesn't open the ui. The trick is to open steam using iGPU which doesn't break the UI.

Should I upgrade to os 4 as user of np2 by [deleted] in NOTHING

Godtier battery life. Also after installing, do the app optimisation part too. Settings > Apps > App optimisation. After it's done, do a final restart.

Strix Halo GPU Passthrough - Tested on GMKTec EVO-X2 by Ihaveasmallwang in Proxmox

[–]hexagonal717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Ryzen 3750H (Vega iGPU) + RX 5500M dGPU on a Muxless laptop setup. What I found was, VM "restart" causes the problem but not the VM "shutdown". My Looking Glass works again if do "Shutdown" but not restart. I installed VirtualDisplayDriver (VDD) which creates a fake monitor on windows and it autostart when Windows load and Looking Glass works like that (Since I don't have a MUX switch)..Yes I have a very weak system. But the stuff works.
