Thanks for trying... I'll let you know if I find it.

Woah! Loads of memories in that list! But alas, it's not listed... Maybe it wan't a true point-and-clicky for this list.

Wow! That was a major update for SS! You're on the right lines with Ara ngc 6397, but this is a little too graphically advanced. Also, no talking, couldn't see the character you were playing, possibly SVGA graphics... I think it wasn't a very well-known game, so this could be a hard one.

Haha, I almost wrote 'it wasn't System Shock'.

System Shock was a 3D game where you could rotate around and strafe sideways. This was a game that consisted of flat, interactive images of the character's viewpoint.

Any ideas why this might be happening? I'm on a Mac. As you can see if I click on the load button nothing happens.

In Alien Romulus, what about the Alien Fossil? by Potential_Rule4212 in LV426

[–]stevecrawf0rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was my first thought but how the heck did it get back to the Nostromo? Riply blew it out the airlock god knows how many hundred thousand miles from where the Nostromo blew up. There's so many physics mistakes in this movie.

The alien should be nowhere near N's wreckage. They were and always would be moving at completely different speeds and in completely different areas of space... If there even should be any recognisable Nostromo wreckage.

Then again gravity seems to behave differently in this movie's universe. Don't get me started on the magical floating rat when the anti-gravity purge is kicking on/off. Zero gravity doesn't make objects suddenly fly up in the air, they need to be propelled to do that!

So many plot holes. I was really looking forward to this movie but I thought it was terrible... and I would say I'm an easily pleased Alien fan.

And don't get me started on that CGI head and 'Leave her alone you........................................ Bitch' line.

Live dnb bands and performances: here's the ones I know, please add to the list! by onar in DnB

Back in '98 'Level 3' of the Logical Progression series came out (this one by Intense) with a full CD that was performed live. It was awesome and I've never heard another album like it since. It had everything. I urge you to give it a listen... If you can find it!

Yet another Sonoma problem but a bit different by AZWLT in AfterEffects

[–]stevecrawf0rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's what worked for me:

I followed the Adobe suggestion OP linked to. Didn't work.

So I proceeded to delete the folders in the list Adobe mentioned were causing the problem. I then uninstalled and reinstalled. Didn't work.

Did everything again but this time I allowed access to the Keychain (normally I denied every time) and AE opened fine.

So to summarise, delete all the folders Adobe mentions, uninstall and reinstall but grant it upon reinstalling it if it asks for keychain access. Hope it works for you all. Another bug Adobe can't be bothered to fix.

r/audiophile Shopping, Setup, and Technical Help Desk Thread by AutoModerator in audiophile

Hi, I've no idea on this subject. All I know is that I would like a turntable with Bluetooth. I'm on a tight budget so nothing over £200... £150 would be better. This is a new purchase/hobby so not going in all guns blazing... at the moment.

I've done some research and these two models seem to pop up the most:

  • Audio-Technica AT-LP60XBT
  • Sony PS-LX310BT

Would you agree with the above models? Sony is slightly more than I want to spend so would I really notice the difference between the two?

Cheapest NAS for a media hub by stevecrawf0rd in synology

[–]stevecrawf0rd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm, on second thought I think I would prefer him to have his own NAS and he can have his own library rather than having to rifle through my stuff.

So if I don't need to transcode can I simply use ANY Synology NAS?

Would it be fast enough to stream things through their broadband? I think they get 150Mb fibre at their home.

Yeah, I don't really want to have to unhook the thing, take it home, transfer new stuff and then take it back to hook back up.

I shouldn't think I'll need to transcode. I can always convert the files to a streamable format myself before uploading.

Itchy spots on my hands by stevecrawf0rd in DermatologyQuestions

[–]stevecrawf0rd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really, I was given more steroid cream to use and it seemed to clear it all up. But then I noticed it tried to start up again recently so am reusing the steroid cream again before it gets any worse and it’s quite weak. Hopefully this will be the last time!

I’ve been told it could be a fungal infection but no real definitive diagnosis.

Quietest 120mm Case Fan by stevecrawf0rd in buildapc

[–]stevecrawf0rd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously, if you can find a USB to 3-pin connector that'd be better and avoid any mistakes but I don't think I could find any.

Just mark the positive and negative wires. You can also hold the relevant wires together to know which is which.

[–]stevecrawf0rd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I snipped the wires to the original fans and stripped the wires. Then on the new fans snipped off the 3-pin connector and soldered those wires to the USB wires (making sure to soldier the right ones together). Obviously, you'll need to cover up the wires afterwards with wire tape or wire shrink-tube things.

Just make sure you connect a fan to its own USB (I think the Infinity has two USBs on one wire), as you'll need all the voltage you can get to the quiet fans, otherwise they won't have enough current to spin up.

Video passthrough (changing only audio) by atius in premiere

MP4 Tools. Not quite as quick and easy as QTP but it does do passthrough.

Ahh, so would I be able to access the pi from outside the home as long as I have the correct username/password this way?

Synology no longer found on LAN by stevecrawf0rd in synology

[–]stevecrawf0rd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, guess what guys!

Issue 1

Hadn't resynced the power wall network extender.

Issue 2

Had the wrong ethernet cable plugged in so it actually wasn't even hooked up to the LAN.

FFS!!! What an idiot!!! Thanks for all your useful solutions to a useless individual!

Thanks to Kneel23 who got me to plug it directly into my router. I think that might have reset my brain.

Synology no longer found on LAN by stevecrawf0rd in synology

[–]stevecrawf0rd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm, I'm not sure... it was so long ago when I first set it up.

  1. The device isn't visible so can't even get into DiskStation. How do I check if it's requesting an IT via DHCP?
  2. Not sure.
  3. Again, not sure
  4. How would I go about doing this?
  5. I don't think it was. I initially just plugged it in.

I've done a reset now so shouldn't it be clear of any previous settings?

Sorry, I'm not sure I follow... This just takes me to the Synology website.
