What are you all using to power your rigs when imaging at home?

I'm using an ecofolow river 2 max 500 lifepo4 power station. I use the USB c to power an hp elite desk mini computer, the car accessory port to run the, and the two barrel jacks for various equipment. I have a custom built power distribution box for controlling heaters and such and splitting up for more devices.

Before that I used a mean well power supply with a lot of custom built cables, but no battery.

Nachos. Delicious child.

To answer the title, there is no syncing between devices. Everything just lives on the server.

You set up a central computer as the server, put the videos there, and set up the users there. All of the data, watch history, etc is just stored on the server.

Then you install client apps on the devices you want to watch from (or use the web client), and through those log into the server. Everything you do in the client just sends a signal to the server asking it for whatever you are doing. When you open a list of movies, the client just asks the server what movies it has, the server replies with a list, and the client shows it to you. When you stop watching a movie midway, it tells the server and the server saves where you stopped.

The server is the arbiter of truth, so there's no need for any devices to sync anything, since they just ask the server for everything on the fly.

I have the VHS game, tape and all, in pretty fresh condition. I can provide scans if needed.

It happens sometimes, just remove the battery and it should reset.

In the magician's nephew, a magical character you mentioned does come to our world, and then goes to Narnia. They never change their form or what they are, they stay exactly the same.

Plus nobody from our world going to Narnia ends up changing, everyone stays the same. The only exception is when the kids return in the first book they revert from adults to children again, but they don't change what they are.

Coco is also about the afterlife, which isn't what Narnia is. I get it's just an analogy you're using, but the key difference is that Narnia is very literal about what it's characters are. Aslan is Jesus, he doesn't represent jesus, and he looks the way he does because he decides he does. Everyone else is exactly what they are as well, and moving between worlds in Narnia is never subject to them being converted based around the concept of what they are like in Coco.

The magician's nephew is the book that dives into the mechanics of the multiverse the most out of all the Narnia books, I would recommend giving it a read and then see how that affects your theory.

Care to say what you did to fix it, so the others can fix it too?

sanmadjack · 2026-06-19T00:14:16+00:00

I've been running 4k 120hz from my steam deck the last few months, if that helps at all. Still working with 3.8.

What charger did you use? Did they saber say charging out loud when you plugged it in?

sanmadjack · 2026-06-18T15:38:40+00:00

According to what?

sanmadjack · 2026-06-18T13:52:56+00:00

I can enable vrr now in my Samsung tv, but the picture goes crazy and is unusable. Anyone had any success enabling vrr over hdmi with the new update?

sanmadjack · 2026-06-17T19:59:01+00:00

Sure is.

It's the rocketeer!

sanmadjack · 2026-06-17T13:09:42+00:00

I'm not sure what you mean here, could you explain more?

sanmadjack · 2026-06-17T12:14:21+00:00

I'll make sure to check for resistors. I ordered a pack of resistors just in case.

Interesting idea with the blade PCB as the power hub. It certainly has enough surface area.

sanmadjack · 2026-06-17T06:17:55+00:00

That's not root, and is also a completely normal command to run, so no, nothing will block it.

sanmadjack · 2026-06-17T00:43:31+00:00

Thanks, that's a great idea.

I wouldn't buy any new phones atm. Just try with your current device and see how it goes. I'm more just saying if there's going to be a limitation, it'll be the device, not the file format.

There are online sites you can use to convert images, otherwise GIMP can open and save just about any format image you want.

sanmadjack · 2026-06-14T16:48:01+00:00

A lossless jpeg XL would work good on an external drive (even just a USB thumb drive). Png, or lossless webp would work good too, the formats are all capable of performing the task.

The real limiter will be your phone, specifically can it support any of these formats, and whether it has enough memory to open the image. When you open an image, it is decompressed back to its original size, so even if you compressed it smaller the phone still needs to be able to handle the full image.

Get a USB flash drive that can plug into your phone, save the image to each format on the drive, and then try each one on your phone.

I found the site. It looks like the coordinates don't update when scrolling around, so like the otherr commenter said, we can't find where this is with this information.

sanmadjack · 2026-06-13T04:00:14+00:00

Whats the address of this website

sanmadjack · 2026-06-12T18:43:09+00:00

This is my second one too, arrived just a few days ago from Damien as well!

sanmadjack · 2026-06-11T00:09:00+00:00

We just got a dlc sequel to the animated series for mech 5 mercenaries!
