Video game maintenance and preservation. How do we feel?

So..I wasn't being confrontational I was just making a silly joke that The Crew, along with a lot of other Ubisoft games, sucks a$$. I wasn't saying it to say "Well, the games suck so who cares." I was just saying that the game(s) sucks. -
if its allowed for games why not for cars, appliances, houses, etc? after "unspecified" time your shit will just stop working arbitrarily and you need to buy a new one. capitalism baby, sign me up! (yeah, that gamers put up with this for so long really says more about them than about the predatory game makers...) -
Hi I am trying to use handbrake on my PC to access files from my ubuntu server to compress them. Im only getting 11 MB/s though. I have 1000 megabit internet so this seems VERY slow to what I should be getting. I think its seriously limiting how fast I can compress stuff in handbrake. Im using the samba local file share default thing on ubuntu to access it like a folder. Thanks

Well Best Buy is closed until the morning. I'll have to go grab one then. I really want to just fix my old drive, THEN clone the Windows installation and all to the new one. Is that an option? Think of that C: drive like an old woman's house. There's stuff everywhere, and some of it I forgot about, some of it is super important, but I have no idea where it is, and I'm 99% sure that "doing a new install and trying my best to set it up the same" will have a CATASTROPHIC number of differences. Is there ANY way I just buy new drive, do SOMETHING with it, then either use it to get my old drive working again, or just carefully transport every last byte to the new drive like carrying a tray full of filled glasses without spilling a drop? -

Budget? Used/new? 1/2 tons are pushing 12k+ lb towing rating now. Though if constantly towing I'd too opt for the 3/4 ton or bigger. -
those "specs" are almost always complete nonsense. also game looks like trash.

UK mobile networks summed up: super cheap, inconsistently fast, inconsistently terrible and slow, coverage
Gave up on trying to force my way with only O2 and Three without broadband. Third line added with EE, which is also mixed results
O2 - Main line, 300GB/mo, £15.2/mo
5G: coverage is not great and not very fast (about 70Mbps in testing).
4G: coverage is very good but the speeds range from "decent" to "0.05Mbps on 4G? O_o".
3G: coverage is great but speeds are not great
Mind you, that 4G mast is still broken next to my home...7 months later...
Three - iPad (but is a phone line), 40GB/mo (with rollover), £4/mo
5G: coverage is pretty great with amazing speeds (200Mbps+)
4G: uninspiring due to oversubscription (aka a bit crap).
3G (HSPDA+): Still by far Three's biggest strength, 25/4Mbps+ is honestly very solid even in 2024 with lower ping than 4G and better coverage.
EE - Second phone line (did need for work), 30GB/mo, £3.50/mo
5G: acceptable coverage but speeds are not great (around 90Mbps in testing).
4G: 125Mbps spikes before settling to 80Mbps, pretty solid for 4G. Solid coverage as well.
3G: What's that? You mean edge?
Honestly, I'm surprised I can have 370GB of data, across three lines and it only costing £22.70/mo. I do actually need all three lines, albeit the two secondaries could both be <5GB of data (but it wouldn't have been cheaper so 30 and 40GB it is).
I guess now that I've become a commuter who lives out of a hotel 50% of the time, always having 330GB+ of data is actually really nice.

My friend gave me a old dell g7 laptop and he doesn't remember any of the passwords to get into it. I tried forcing a recovery by turning it off 3 times when it's just starting it gives me the option to do a factory reset but when I try it it fails for some reason. So then I went into cmd and gave admin a new password but it doesn't give me option to sign into admin account and when I do a search for net users none of the name profiles show up. so I am wondering if I pull the hard drive and delete the user profiles and put it back in will I be able to access the computer I want to try to save the os that's on the laptop

No panic nothing is lost yet. It's not stupid to buy ssd and clone it. But as jaslion said: So you can follow his instructions: All you will lose is programs and install again and I'm sure all desktop icons stays same if you installed all your programs default way and your profile folder can be simply moved to same folder with same name. Then theorically it should be same although you may hit some errors underway. I'm saying this you cannot move programs but you can move your profile folder. Programs will fail miserably or it will magically fix itself like steam does. Hit and miss. I must apologise for difficulties. I've assumed you're bit tech savvy yourself because you mentioned hireboot guide. As what you just did you only modified bootloader from windows itself so not the files. Bootloader doesn't matter anyways because it doesn't boot regardless. Repairing windows is always hassle task and cost hours of doing it hence people say reinstall windows.

sub68 replied to Shahrad's topic in LTT Releases
He picked the least aggressive sentenced but still begging one out of already a crazy number that have already asked his social media. Linus did say "Anyone that does this now will be message banned from said social media." IMO he made this video to do one person but also made it so that he can say hey don't be crazy to our social media. But yeah I agree this is stupid no one is going to listen linus, its probably the most dumb thing I have seen. ROG rig reboot was a series that was good because contestants had to get creative to make a pitch to get to the point. not beg. -

I've seen spam mail use my first name, I've seen spam mail use my YouTube channel name, I've had spam mail use an account name I made when I was eight years old.

I think I need to just call it then... I think the better move would be to get an SSD at this point. Can you tell me, would it be stupid to get an SSD, install Windows fresh on it, and then just drag and the entire contents of the drive over to the root of the new drive and let it all merge? I've been using this PC since 2015, and with various changes and things I've learned and having certain files/programs literally installed on the desktop and just never bothering to move them, and obscure programs (like the one that lets me save the icon layout on my desktop), and I don't trust myself being able to get the new drive EXACTLY how I had my old one. Basically, if I get a new SSD and connect it, is there a way to just PLONK everything back in its place? Or am I screwed forever not knowing if I was able to get everything moved? I don't think I can just clone the drive, right? (Also, side note, the MOBO has an unused m.2 slot. My SSD is normal 2.5 inch SATA drive and I wouldn't mind upgrading the Windows drive to something better in the m.2 slot, but I don't want to do that if I can't basically clone EVERYTHING I had exactly how it was. Can you tell I'm having a bit of a breakdown? This place is my last resort...)

The last oil cycle I had was about 1qt over 8k miles (extrapolated), and of all the vehicles I've owned/driven, 1qt/5000mi is about average (not including sonata after 110k miles where it never needed another oil change as mentioned previously). I fully expected it to be a "oh you need an oil pressure sensor replacement, but it'll be covered as you're still under warranty". Given that BMW and Subaru and Jeep, and Kia/Hyundai are known for oil guzzling: having documentation for acceptable oil consumption is a very German thing to do.

You can click enter to select and if that doesn't work then that doesn't solve it, you can use hirenboot and move files you'll need from c: to D: and reinstall windows double check which drive you're installing so you won't accidentally install on wrong drive. (Easy method is to unplug drive then boot it and install on drive with ease of mind.) Unfortunately you'll lose programs with their data except some programs is technically portable gotta do research if it's important. As for rest i assume you what you need. As for offline save files it's usually in appdata folder gotta google: "GAMENAME save file location" Sometimes google answers.
