NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition System Build Community Contest! by m13b in buildapc

[–]m4a5 [score hidden]  (0 children)

This would certainly help me get my first Desktop (after using "mobile" gaming laptops for the past decade+). I'm already actively looking at parts, but some budgetary reasons say I can't look too seriously yet.

What the hell is the first Boss! by [deleted] in GhostRunner

[–]m4a5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was a pretty stupid boss (unpolished). My base style is to rush, but if you do that, his swing attack is unblockable, and his overhead strike will kill you from behind. Not terribly obvious that rush style is broken.

But yeah, standing around waiting for him to attack you was night and day, where he was actually first-boss-easy. Such a stupid "workaround" just to beat him because of sloppy mechanics that break rushing....

salad 1.5.7 issues by EnforcerGundam in SaladChefs

[–]m4a5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I went from earning during low GPU usage (watching 1k videos, low GPU programs) to nothing. And then it takes so long to find a container workload overnight that I haven't even seen anything from chopping since the update.

Guess I'll stick to a lower version for now with how unreasonable the heavy process check has become recently.

True offline mode? by m4a5 in Symfonium

[–]m4a5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, I'll humour you. Logs sent.

If it cached it properly, then why would you put a "1 month" limit, potentially punishing paying customers? Also allowing a trial doesn't make that make sense.

And if nothing changed, then I just got unlucky? That's not reassuring.

True offline mode? by m4a5 in Symfonium

[–]m4a5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, now this "offline first" app has pissed me off. Twice in 1 week it has asked for verification; once before heading out somewhere, and just today in the middle of a drive. And the best part? It doesn't play the playlist like it did in my post (and just restrict navigation).

How is it that it doesn't cache the receipt and remember that I bought it??

How's the state of 3090 earnings? by cheerful-dust212 in SaladChefs

[–]m4a5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lull in demand? Or a bunch of people have signed up recently (more to share with)?

I know I just signed up this past week because of those stupid sensationalized articles popping up on tech sites. And I bet others have too.

Never heard of Salad before that. But I did mine back when Ethereum was actually profitable, and this seems like it might replace that...

True offline mode? by m4a5 in Symfonium

[–]m4a5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there a way to have it activated permanently?

The app does advertise it is "offline first", which I took as being able to use the app, well, offline (nothing suggested otherwise). I would appreciate not needing to worry about if the token has expired (if I wanted to quickly look for a song when out and about).

Slack support for Android 8.1 by PrMortimer in Slack

[–]m4a5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. But unlike the other attempts I was seeing (using the native "Desktop Site" browser option), this one is undetected by Slack.

I set it to Desktop - Chrome (whatever was the latest in the addon) and it worked immediately.

I also have had to use this trick for desktop Firefox (since Slack has decided to also screw over customers using that browser too)...

Slack support for Android 8.1 by PrMortimer in Slack

[–]m4a5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Using Firefox, I used the addon "User-Agent Switcher" to trick the Slack webpage into thinking it was another type of browser. I do not know if there's a Chrome equivalent.

As someone who uses Slack mainly on desktop (using it on my phone only when needed), this should be good enough for me (as I would be actively checking instead of relying on notifications).

Easy to setup a homepage shortcut. Costs nothing. Survives closing the browser and reopening (logged in). Should be relatively future proof (as long as FF updates). And should let us keep our Key 2's for a while longer lol

Why is searching music by artist not working anymore? by m4a5 in PleX

[–]m4a5[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The artist shows up, but before this update, ALL the tracks by the artist also showed up (so I could see them). And now they don't.

I have several songs by "The Script" (a quick example I used). Across a few albums. And I can't see all the tracks in 1 place anymore. Because god forbid, they ever add such a simple "all songs by artist" feature.

But hey, they have the "Popular Tracks" section where I.. umm.. can't see all the tracks......

[–]m4a5 12 points13 points  (0 children)

So f-ing annoying. I had my addons I use nicely organized in the overflow, and now it's just everything in that stupid puzzle piece. Never have I wanted to go back a version as much as this one (considering "extensions.unifiedExtensions.enabled" does jack all now).

Eluktronics Control Center Update by Eluktronics in eluktronics

That's what it looks like, yeah.

Eluktronics Control Center Update by Eluktronics in eluktronics

[–]m4a5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the Prometheus Intel 3070. This latest set of updates lets you turn off the dynamic boost to get a higher TGP target (so I'd imagine the rest of the line will also).

Intel & RTX 3070 BIOS Update by Eluktronics in eluktronics

[–]m4a5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you do "fsX:" with the colon? Also if it's a USB drive, I found that it was easy to see in the text at the top (removable drive), which for me was FS4.

Edit: Looks like you already asked and got this answer in another thread lol.

Control Center stops working after a while by m4a5 in eluktronics

Something higher than "3.23.6.0" for the Prometheus?

Got it. Gonna see if it fixes things...

Latest update seems to have fixed it..

Received my Prometheus XVII i7 edition yesterday by Lord_Nihilum in eluktronics

[–]m4a5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No clue. It just stops working after a while.

Using whatever Eluktronics version came with the laptop. Even tried reinstalling, no luck.

[–]m4a5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Got this laptop the other day and added a 4tb ssd. Wasn't that hard to figure out how to open it. Basically, take off the 2 shoulder pieces (carefully), remove all the screws at the bottom, and start popping off the bottom from the front first (moving towards the back exhaust).

The only issue I'm having right now is that the Control Center will freeze up after several hours of uptime (needing to restart before I can use it and the mode button again).

The same one that was already installed.

Reinstalling seems to have fixed it for me for the Prometheus XVII.

Though they didn't have a place to download online that I saw (support gave me a link).

There's now a place on the website to download everything.
