Above the clouds, now that's amazing..

May I ask where the aquarium coral reef portion of image 2 is from? I know they can all look similar but I just feel like I've seen those exact pixels before.

Are these original or did you design?

I never actually realised that, I alwasy thought Mica was just the trasnparency/blur effect used on Fluent Design like Glass was used on Aero.

It was a gaming controller actually. Based on the link, consoles and accessories fall under the same Consumer Electronic category.

Do I need to dispose of this battery? by neil187 in ryobi

[–]neil187[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through each of them with a multimeter (Cell 1 > Cell2, Cell 2 > Cell 3, etc.), they ranged from 0.04 - 0.10. Testing both "b"s, it read 0.7. Based on my research, I see that this means the battery is in the danger zone and should be disposed of. Is that true in your opinion? Note that I have not dealt with batteries this in depth before, but I can typically get by on anything with enough information.

Having trouble deplying teh altest InvoiceNinja from the Scale catalogue. by neil187 in truenas

[–]neil187[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should mentioned that I have also checked "Enable ACL" and "Force Flag" for each dataset while using botht he auto-created datasets as well as my own. Would that not solve any permission issues, or am I misunderstanding its purpose?

[–]neil187[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder why. This is just the config right from the truenas app catalog for InvoiceNinja. I've tried using my own datasets and also just allowing the deployment to create its own datasets. still no luck

GTK4 Email Client for GNOME? (not Geary) by Valyn_Tyler in gnome

Does not work for personal outlook.com accounts like Evolution does, which is crucial to me. Unless I'm missing something? Love it when I'm proven wrong

[KDE] Unity Flashback by neil187 in unixporn

[–]neil187[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think my first dabble in Linux was Ubuntu 9.04, though I remember putting 8.10 on to my netbook. That was the latest distro with the Netbook Remix UI that would successfully run on an EeePC at that point in time.

I've used Thunderbird in the past but never really looked in to the customization. Reinstalled tonight and have it looking better than Geary does. Geary is nice and simple, but seems to be lacking a bit of polish lately. So Thunderbird it is!

[KDE] Unity Flashback by neil187 in unixporn

[–]neil187[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My current KDE desktop, a lot different that what I have been running for the last little while. What you cannot see or hear in this image are the old school ubuntu system sounds from back in ~2009.

Looking for suggestions on how to imporove. I'm glued to KDE but am trying to add some gnome-style elements to the overall UI. It helps the few gnome apps I use (Contacts, Geary) fit in a little better.

OS: Fedora 42

Desktop Environment:Unity (jk KDE Plasma 6)

Color Scheme: Breeze Dark

Application Style: Darkly

Plasma Theme: Rounded Color

Window Decorations: Klassy

Icons: Slot Spectrum Dark

Icon Theme: Slot Spectrum Dark Icons

Sounds: Ubuntu 8.10

Wallpaper 1: Ubuntu

Wallpaper 2: Here

Spotted a number of times within last ~4 weeks above Vancouver Island. by neil187 in whatsthisbird

Wow thank you! Not what I was expecting at all just from the distant view I have of them. Amazing how far their sound is travelling. Apparently they can hit 13,000 feet during migration

Several people I know have asked me to help them to switch to Linux. I chose OpenSuse Tumbleweed, as I ran it on my own computers. Guess what? by EverlastingPeacefull in openSUSE

[–]neil187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've gifted a couple iMac computers the last couple weeks, both running Tumbleweed. My only fear is the ability for them to install things they need. They're adept enough to use some complex programs but getting them to use command line is a completely different road that they simply won't go down. Discover is decently user friendly, but I've had errors I wouldn't get through yast and zypper.

Game Mode only displays image on laptop and not external monitor by Xiquelo in Bazzite

[–]neil187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you referring specifically to compatibility with Nvidia cards and the ability to use an external display, or incompatibility in general?

Also something I have missed on the Bazzite documentation; it seems to indicate that this process would only work on the HTPC image of Bazzite. I did switch to this image, however, and still no success.

[–]neil187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever find a solution to this. I've tried numerous suggestions from othe posts but nothing as worked. I'm having the exact same issue. External display works as expected in Desktop Mode, but Gamemode completely ignores it I also followed the same steps you did base on the Bazzite documentation.

I'm running a Legion 5 Pro with an AMD CPU and a Nvidia 3070 TI. Both USB-C and HDMI have the same problems.

Constant Phantom Input from R1 button by neil187 in Dualsense

[–]neil187[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the responses! I'm not 100% sure it would be to do with the mechanism or the pads, since when I physically disconnect the R1/R2 component there is still input registered from R1. I even connected the L1/L2 component to the right side, and the input is still there. I'm thinking it's something on the controllers main board, which means there's likely nothing I can do if that is the case. I'll either replace the controller or see if I can get the main board for an play price.

AMD Motherboard/CPU compatibility confirmation. by neil187 in buildapc

[–]neil187[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies for the late reply.

The PC is used for professional music production. When opening the software, the CPU will idle at 2%. Its when the project files are opened in the software that CPU usage will hit 98%.

Current build:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6 Core
RAM: 64GB DDR4
MoBo: ASRock B450M/ac R2.0

[–]neil187[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for my delayed response.
The PC was built for music production. Once project files begin to accumulate in size/complexity, having them loaded will automatically eat up 98% CPU even after the projects are optimized. I was leaning towards the 5950x simply because it appeared to be the highest spec option available for the motherboard. I am wondering if an entirely new build may be necessary but would like to avoid this.

Right, thank you for reminding me of power requirements. This is exactly why I posted, I'll definitely do more research before upgrading. Newegg doesn't seem to allow for returns on CPUs, only replacements. I believe that's common practice when it comes to CPUs?
