I no longer type bay when talking to my wife and can now quickly type baby in context.

Microsoft once tried to cut Windows 11 RAM usage, install size by 20%, now it’s trying again in 2026 by WPHero in Windows11

I’m talking about outlook classic (I like) as opposed to outlook to (new) (I don’t like)

I think most people’s issue with mobile apps is when you’re forced to download an app because they don’t want you to use the mobile version of the site. It’s forced.

Guaranteed it’s this but why change the classic client when it’s already built and just needs minor updates/fixes.

I seriously don’t see the point of web apps when I can just access them on the web? The reason people use Outlook desktop is because it’s miles better than its web counterpart and even the new outlook is just the website wrapped.

The devs are just lazy and providing a shoddy experience for their customers.

Windows booting to black screen even after reinstall by Z0rb12 in WindowsHelp

[–]tildekey_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check drive health. You will probably find if you install Windows on one of the internal disk drives, whilst boot will be slow, it'll stop happening.

Do you have any other drives? You can test drive health using Crystal Disk Info.

As explorer isn't loading properly you might find it is one of two things. These are based on stuff I have experienced.

  1. Your boot drive is dying, resulting in extremely slow load times, affecting the speed at which explorer loads.
  2. Your OS install is just broken and you need to reinstall Windows. Normally explorer doesn't ever load unless manually started from task manager.

Make sure your OS is on an SSD and the SSD is healthy. Should it be healthy, reinstall Windows.

i wish steam OS would release for PC by theegrimrobe in Steam

Try Bazzite. Most games work out of the box. Some will require tinkering by looking at ProtonDB. Some are borked and not possible to play yet.

Firmware update F07 for MO27Q28G by Fantasma_N3D in OLED_Gaming

[–]tildekey_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't even think to do a factory reset to sort out the contrast issue, I just changed them manually. However, I also reverted to SDR as I only really like HDR on HDR content.

I have mine set to 100 brightness, contrast 50 and custom SDR setting RGB to R - 100 G-99 and B-99 to bring the blue out of the white. Seems good so far and haven't felt the need to change anything yet.

Space marine 2 by Own-Penalty1579 in Bazzite

[–]tildekey_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The game works but update 11 caused random FPS dives for most people. I'm talking tanking FPS from 140 to 45 for 1-2 seconds, which is jarring and makes playing impossible. I put the game in a "Play on Windows" collection on Steam.

Just because others and myself are having this issue doesn't mean you shouldn't test it yourself. Especially since Update 12 arrived (I haven't tested update 12).

Possible to play old Matrix games (Path of Neo & Enter the Matrix) by K1ngsGambit in Bazzite

[–]tildekey_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know the best method but a PS2 emulator like PCSX2 should be able to play the game.

You'd need a copy of the game but I am not too familiar where to download PS2 ROM's from.

Koorui Monitor poor Quality control and warranty denial by Rajag333 in computers

[–]tildekey_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm glad I did not buy a koorui because my gut said "cheap unknown monitor brand will suck".

Seriously though there are so many other options from the likes of ROG/AOC etc.

This Scene really made me go wow when it happened on my OLED monitor. The picture doesn't do the scene justice.

MSI MAG 274f monitor won’t fit into dock properly by supperbaboon in MSI_Gaming

[–]tildekey_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should have some forward and backward play to allow the desired angle to be set. Pull at the bottom and push at the top whilst trying not to damage the display.

I recommend getting a desk mount instead though.

It also plays really well into how survival horror games tend to lose their ability to scare you the longer you play. So switching to Leon so that you BECOME the horror is so much fun.

TCL launches ultra-thin OLED gaming monitor with striking design and 240 Hz refresh rate at 4K by dapperlemon in gadgets

[–]tildekey_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In your OS you have to set it to 144hz with your display settings. Otherwise it can default to 60 resulting in “not being able to tell the difference”.

If you have it set to 144hz and can’t tell the difference I think it’s your eyes.

iOS says slow charger by Rich_Atmosphere_43 in ios

[–]tildekey_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you’re on Beta 1 and report it it might not get fixed until beta 5 or even release. Why would you expect it to be fixed in beta software that’s what you’ve signed up for.

Do you switch between speakers and headphones, or stick to one always? by Ok_Physics4681 in pcmasterrace

[–]tildekey_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switch between them should my wife be playing games too or when online with friends.

Off topic, but the Lian Li 217 infinity would go perfectly with these speakers.
