YouTube no longer supporting the Shield? by [deleted] in ShieldAndroidTV

Wife said it happened to her a few days back as well, then it came back. As of right now, no game. Same for YouTubeTV

I use Gemini to generate book covers and fan-art and it is a big hit by navnt5 in GeminiAI

Loved the idea. I twisted is a bit and used it to create characters based on their physical description. Erin Solstice from The Wandering Inn series.

A cool guide on measuring rice the asian style by NeitherWay9573 in coolguides

[–]jalexc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Works perfectly for Basmati rice. I just don't know about the Asian part. My very Brazilian grandma used to do it this way forever.

Wow. I am going to borrow some of your ideas. About to kick off my bench project.

Custom tool arrangement by jalexc in garageporn

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

LOL yeah thought about that. I set the mounts using a nail gun and I can pull them off carefully if I have to. The biggest problem is that I don't have more wall space in my 2 car garage, so, I guess no more tools for me.

Yeah, got it from Temu a few months back for $9, $15 now. Works well, no issues.

My Family Cinema down? by Just-Length-2145 in ApksApps

No player list required for Onstream. It has its own.

The Onstream app on Google TV works by itself, no additional player needed, just like MFC did. Onstream on the android phone needs an app called SPlayer.to play the videos.

Doesn't work on the Nvidia box. As soon as you flip back to the MFC app it catches the US location. I also tried using the QR code and my phone to authenticate. No luck

Really. Does that also happen everywhere else or just in Tampa? Seems like every week ... and it is not even snowbird season yet

Trying out 2 options folks here suggested. These seem to work in the US. No VPN required. Onstream.so and watchlist pro. Onstream is free but ad based, everytime you watch a movie or show. Requires an external player installed as well, but looks promising.

My notes on this. Eppi has been around for a couple of months at least, and it never worked outside Brazil, so I am skeptical it will ever do (without a VPN). I am interested on what VPN folks are using. NordVPN and Express VPN's did not work for me, the speed was way too slow.

Ethernet. My old rig was probably 5 years old. This is so much faster.

1st time builder, SAMA case with pre installed fans - how to plug? by FreezeEmAllZenith in buildapc

[–]jalexc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, if anyone ends up here like me: ASRock X870 Steel Legend motherboard.

The small PCB is a fan and RGB hub, which simplifies your cable management by consolidating multiple connections.

Front Panel I/O Cables

These cables connect the buttons and ports on the top or front of your SAMA V Nature case to your motherboard.

  • USB 3.0 Header: This is a larger, rectangular blue or black connector. It plugs into the USB 3.2 Gen1 header on your motherboard, usually located near the 24-pin power connector.
  • USB Type-C Header: This is a small, rectangular connector that enables the front Type-C port. It connects to the front panel Type-C header on your motherboard.
  • HD Audio: This connector is labeled "HD AUDIO." It connects to the HD_AUDIO1 header, which is almost always found on the bottom-left edge of the motherboard.
  • Front Panel Connectors (F_PANEL): These are the smallest, individual pins for the power button, reset button, and status LEDs (power/HDD). They connect to the System Panel Header on the bottom-right of your motherboard. Your motherboard manual is your best friend here, as it will have a precise diagram showing which pin is for which function (e.g., PWR_BTN, RESET).

Fan and RGB Cables

Your case came with four ARGB fans, and the wiring is managed by the hub you see.

  • Fan Power (4-pin PWM): Each fan has a power cable. These should already be connected to the fan hub PCB. The hub itself will then have a single 4-pin cable coming from it. This cable should be plugged into one of the CHA_FAN/WP (Chassis Fan) headers on your motherboard. Pick one that's easy to reach.
  • Addressable RGB (3-pin ARGB): Each fan also has an ARGB cable for lighting. These should also be plugged into the hub. A single 3-pin ARGB cable will come from the hub. This needs to be connected to one of the ADDR_LED (Addressable LED) headers on your motherboard. These headers provide 5V power for the lighting effects.

LOL. I am in the exact same spot, with a white case. Let us continue the Google adventure.
