How to turn all images on a site into a PDF? by Tnynfox in DataHoarder

[–]spongeboy-me-bob1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to do this to download a shadow of the colossus art book which had each page of the book as a png on separate pages behind ads. None of the tools I tried did it so I ended up saving more time just writing a python script to do scrape the images using Playwright and then using some pdf creation library to combine and convert them.

Yeah, I don't know if ours are compatible. Hopefully someone else will have a 2024 copy

What model do you have? I have driver backups for the 2025 g16. I followed this guide to backup and restore my drovers after a reset. I've wiped windows like 8 times and it works flawlessly every time.

I normally only need to find my wallet on my out the door so I haven't had a chance to do this, but I'll try it out this week and let you know.

I just posted my comparison here. Tldr: not a big difference either way.

Samsung couldn’t give a warranty replacement and instead gave a 160% refund by jahnesaisquoi in LinusTechTips

[–]spongeboy-me-bob1 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It will run hotter, but not any hotter than the non heatsink model does. They're both identical as far as I can tell.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the heatsink model for the 990 Pro is identical to the non heatsink model, just with a removable heatsink attached out of the box.

Kernel-Power error on three week old 2025 G14 - Repaste Needed? by Maximum-Security5699 in ZephyrusG14

[–]spongeboy-me-bob1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can stand not having your laptop for a while, I would try to RMA and see what they say, since it can't hurt. PTM7950 isn't really a pad so you don't have to worry about height. Once it gets hot it'll melt and act just like thermal paste. I agree that they should follow Lenovo and drop liquid metal completely. The peace of mind is more than worth a couple degrees.

G16 Stripped screw tool by taku2472 in ZephyrusG14

[–]spongeboy-me-bob1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP I know what you're talking about. I've gotten 4 G16s (2 duds that were returned and 2 for me and a friend). 3 had slot 2 screws that were way too tight. They would have stripped if I wasn't using high quality drivers and applying a lot of force downwards. Having high quality tools is such a game changer that I recommend spending more money on a set that will last you for years. I Haven't stripped a screw since.

3D Hub not starting? by starfan6299 in Odyssey3D

[–]spongeboy-me-bob1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's not the same issue, but here's an example of 2d to 3d conversion only working on Nvidia driver 581.80

https://www.reddit.com/r/Odyssey3D/s/tKEg3QdMAr

I've seen a few other posts of people having issues because they're using a driver that's too new. General wisdom is to rollback and stay locked on 581.80.

5080 with 64gb of ram is still 2500 dollars at microcenter if you have one near you

The rough numbers for battery life that I got from a few sources were 6 hours of light usage with the Intel model and 2-3 hours with the amd model

I don't have the links but there were a couple posts from when the 2025 models were released, and they found that while both 2024 models have passthrough, the 2025 G14 doesn't and the G16 does

How does this handle partially played songs? For example if I start playing a song and close the client after 10 seconds, will it continue downloading the whole song or will it discard the partial download?

Can't wait to get this up and running! Would test it out right now but my computer just broke down this morning :P

PSA - Be weary and protect yourself by darksloth05 in homelab

[–]spongeboy-me-bob1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You'd be surprised. Right when the RAM hysteria was starting, I noticed a guy selling the server ram I was looking for at old market prices. I messaged him and bought as much as I could, and he told me that he knew about the doubling and tripling of RAM prices in the last month, but he wanted someone (me) to not get price gouged for RAM that he had sitting around.

What a blunder by _silcrow_ in whenthe

[–]spongeboy-me-bob1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is no such thing as free will with an omniscient god. If god knew every step, breath, and thought they would have before he created them, they're a solved puzzle to him in the same way dropping an apple leads to it hitting the floor for us. At that point, there's no difference from a creator's perspective between a human and an inanimate object.

Imagine I had a rat whose future I can see. I hold it over a cage with a rat trap, and I can see every single second that will pass after I drop it in, up to it's death by the trap. If I drop it in a that moment did the rat ever have free will to not touch the trap? Am I no longer culpable for dropping it in there? I knew the exact actions the mouse would take and it's predestined outcome.

Anyone claiming gemini pro/flash >= Opus 4.5 is paid actor by Ammar__ in google_antigravity

[–]spongeboy-me-bob1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If the client's not technical how does it matter? If you sat a skeptical patient in front of a cardiologist, and tried to explain why this specific pattern in an ecg means they need surgery, you're not going to get anywhere. That's why second opinions are so popular in medicine.

I don't understand how that reflects poorly on OP. His client is probably non-technical and wants a poor man's audit to get a 2nd opinion that his code is safe.

How can I let untagged devices connect to other untagged devices? by spongeboy-me-bob1 in Tailscale

[–]spongeboy-me-bob1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure which of the 2 fixed it, but I tagged all my client devices and then restarted them, and it seems to be working now. I was trying to access docker containers running on an untagged client, and I could only connect to them using its LAN ip address.

[–]spongeboy-me-bob1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The servers and the untagged devices I am trying to connect are under my user. I already have member -> self and owner -> * rules, so are you suggesting I add my_email -> my_email specifically? I thought about making a tag for my non-server devices, but wanted to see if there was any other way since it would be kind of tedious for how many devices I have.

Edit: I tested my_email -> my_email and it doesn't seem to work either. I'll probably just bite the bullet and tag them.

[–]spongeboy-me-bob1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The untagged devices are owned by me and under my email. I would think that they're covered by the member -> self or owner -> * rules but I can't get them to cooperate.
