  2. One thing I don't understand is why yay has to compile almost everything I need to download from the AUR. Is it just an yay thing or do all AUR helpers do this? I just installed yay and without even installing anything else there are thousands of files and folders in the yay folder and somehow my drive usage has also increased quite a bit. If I look inside the folder, the reason there are so many files and folders because most of the folder is filled with source files. Why do I care about keeping source files? I just need the binary. So am I supposed to use a different AUR helper? How do I not keep the source file and why does it even compile them in the first place?
  3. ALT+SHIFT+A on the website you want to deactivate, it will deactivate the addon only for that website until you manually turn it on again.
  4. I used to have Kingston Fury 2X16GB 6000MHz (Intel XMP) CL40 paired with Ryzen 7800X3D It works fine, but the downside that sometimes it does RAM training after BIOS update or just randomly RAM training for 2 minutes when turning it on I changed to Silicon Power RAM 6000MHz CL30 (still XMP) and it never does RAM training even once But your mileage may vary
  5. GeForce 9800 GTX+. It's solid for blur, Unreal Tournament 2004, RimWorld. Heavily recommend!
  6. When I plug my ps5 controller into my pc, not only does it set it as the default audio device, but it actually removes my headset as an audio device from my pc. I can look at my audio devices, see my headset there, and immediately when I plug the ps5 controller in, my headset completely disappears. It will not come back until i restart my system and unplug and plug the headset back in. In the past, I have had it change the default audio device to the controller, but I have never had it completely remove my headset from my system before. I have disabled the controller as an audio device, but when I plug it in, it still removes the headset as a device and instead of audio coming through the controller, it comes through my monitor. Extremely confused on this issue and have looked for a solution everywhere.
  7. I love when engineers have fun.

    Who's this little fella silkscreened on my PCB?

    What inside joke 20 years ago resulted in this goofy dude being printed on tens of thousands of FPGA cards? Someone probably said "Hey look! I can make a little face by combining a couple different icons in our PCB design software!" and someone else said "Great! Leave it there and ship it on the retail versions!"

  8. I cant reveal our cost, but retail is 2849.99 CDN
  9. Eh? 3070 > FH5 and RDR2 does fine at 3440x1440p
  10. Thanks guys. This one is working quite well. My only pet peeve is that it doesn't automatically detect a site that is already in native dark mode, but you can disable it site specific & set site specific options.
  11. Why is Dell's AC adapter warning on the Studio series written like a fake tech support scam call?
    "Please check AC adapter connect properly", "Remove AC adapter and plug-in it again, thanks"

  12. Isn't that just the tech sack/pouch i can not remember the exact wording
  13. So I'm having some issues with OCing my setup after upgrading RAM and PSU, specifically OCing the CPU and RAM. I also upgraded graphics but I don't think it's related to the issue. I feel like it's something simple and I'm just being daft. Everything listed here is from memory as I'm away from home. I literally stayed up all night to try and figure this out. To preface I currently have a Ryzen 7 2700(not x), ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Hero WiFi(most recent bios it would flash without black screening is 6201), Radeon RX 7600xt, 64gb ddr4 3600mhz TForce Vulcan Z Ram (4x16), and a 1000W Gigabyte UD1000GM PG5 PSU. The only way the system will post is if I leave everything default or use the mildest auto OC. CPU target is ~3200mhz I think, but ram was only 2400mhz. Used to I could OC my CPU to ~3.9-4.0ghz stable but now if I touch it or the ram it fails to post, everything spins to life but no power to peripherals and black display until it gives me the boot failed bios memory reset or whatever after like 3 auto reboots. In CPU Z both clocks are reading correctly (except ram is only 1200mhz with ddr and all). Lastly only half of my ram is showing up as usable and half is hardware reserved. I don't know how to change that and didn't see anything in bios though it does pick up all 4 sticks but shows memory as ~32gb. Hopefully someone can help!
  14. What games do you normally play as well? Is it good for that game?

    honestly, for 25 dollars, this is a steal. http…

    no xiaomi is very nice
  16. Yea that's what it seemed when I started researching and looking. I guess a moot point now that I'm going with a desktop and the 4070 looks to offer great performance for the price.
  17. Ahh, alright. Thanks a lot! We'll look into how to use linux as we both are unfamiliar with how to use and install that os. Praying for the sake of our uni projects!

    those switches are like my macbook except refined and have very good feel the best way I can describe its a more tighter type feeling.

    Easy, 0.5 = 12x + x x=0.5/13 = 0.038 Oh shit I didn't think it would get that close, I just thought engineer approximation funny haha
  20. That, try it in another machine, possibly from a live linux boot... if it's recognised with proper capacity you can use e.g. ddrescue to make an image of it and hopefully mount it then, if it still freezes or doesn't get recognised correctly there's nothing you'll be able to do outside of using a data recovery company.
  21. If it has gone bad, is there a way to recover any files from it or is it doomed...
  22. Unable to do that in current moment, it's just that the other one works fine that makes us think that shouldn't be an issue!
  23. Perhaps try the SSD in another slot or in another PC. Though seems it's gone bad.
  24. Could you try the SSD in another machine?

    I am extremely happy that they upgraded to Scissor Switch 2 after that debacle. The Butterfly switches were terrible.
