  2. From my understanding it really just denotes the concentration of the volatile oils (the scent) of the perfume or whatever you're using. edt sits around 5 - 15% or so depending on where you get your perfumes from. On Amazon the sometimes list the "type" of perfume See?
  3. While piracy is not allowed to be discussed, emulation is fair game. You do have your own legally-sourced ROMs, right? Right?! Last time I emulated on my phone, I just used Retroarch. The interface was not very phone-friendly, but it's handy because one program does everything. You just have to install different "cores" for whatever system you are attempting to emulate.
  4. Recently got a pair of JBL LSR305s. They have a little bit of hiss at idle but it isn't noticeable at all, I have them on 6/11 gain on the speakers themselves and control the volume using Windows. My speakers are right next to my PC, which is probably aiding to this, but there is an insane amount of noise. Whenever my PC goes under any kind of load, they start hissing all the time, and when idling, scrolling or changing windows makes it audibly buzz. Currently, I'm using an unbalanced 3.5mm from my motherboard into a 3.5mm to 1/4" TRS adapter, and from that a TRS to 2x TRS to both of my speakers, all connections are secure. I've tried plugging the speakers into a different outlet and using a USB adapter instead of the mobo's 3.5mm jacks to no avail. People recommend an audio interface because I can use balanced cables, but I don't know if I can justify spending £80 to get rid of the buzz, even as bad as it is. If there are any solutions that don't cost much then that'd be great. Here's a video of the buzz, I'm literally just clicking on and off of Steam, which doesn't do it justice. Any help is appreciated. IMG_4843.mp4
  5. Felt like just not enough watts, but I havent tried them on any other device nor any other headphones in my Steam Deck.
  6. I smile every time I see a T9300.

    SLAYY, queen.

    Tried multiple methods of fixing the graphics card, ended up having to replace the entire motherboard. Bit of a shame, but at least it works now!

    I don't know what to think of this laptop. Design-wise, it's absolutely gorgeous, and its build quality is solid - full metal chassis. However, it does have two big problems that turn me off: 

    It lacks ANY indicator lights for HDD and battery. That is just stupid and inconvenient.

    And naturally, the infamous GPU failures on this model are also not ideal. GeForce 8600M is a solid card when it works, but when it breaks (very frequently, may I add - some users reported needing 3+ motherboard replacements from Dell) it'll take the whole laptop with it.

  9. I think my gpu might be done for, I found that uninstalling my current Nvidia drivers helped with the slow/choppy issue on windows but I did a 3dmark time spy test and got like 1100 on the graphics score meanwhile my old 1070ti got in the 6-7000 range, normally my card was getting around the same 18000
  10. No, any motherboard would work with iCPU with RAM. Having an iCUE compatible board would only mean that you can control all the other LEDs on in the system in iCUE rather than having to use a program like OpenRGB, ASUS Aura, MSI Mystic Light, ASRock Polychrome, etc. OK, just be warned that 6600MT/s is getting into the territory where the XMP profile might not work reliably depending on the quality of your memory controller. 13th/14th gen is known for having a massive difference in IMC quality from one chip to the next, so while some chips with that memory config might do 7000 on auto settings, others will top out at 6000MT/s. Most chips should do 6400, so I'd be OK enough recommending that, though speeds above that are in the territory where you'd likely either need to do some work to get it stable or drop the frequency down to 6400 anyway.
  11. I have no idea how to file brows on a phone in a way that doesn’t suck… I never need to tho. I'd always use my laptop if I need to access SMB shares. I do have nextcloud running so I can access stuff via that is needed, but I rarely do.
  12. Yeah I would think getting the high speed version would be fine as I am going to be using 4 pin fan control, and I wouldn't even use the switch on the back of the pro version, I have no idea of my dBA limit I don't have one of them fancy machines
  13. Actually, you will find that a lot of things will be "talked about" when it involves Musk; even if it has no impact or is just made up stuff sometimes [most recent example, the news agencies who all reported on the cancellation of Tesla's $25,000 car which took the stock down by 8%...except as it turns out Tesla is ahead of schedule on that or the firing of 10% of the Tesla workforce, where what's left out is every 2 years they have done a similar purge]. Lots of security stuff actually ends up getting click-baited, even when it doesn't serve any practical purposes except theoretical. While I do think in this scenario it is valid, just because something is talked about one shouldn't assume that it's the worst case [as time and time again we hear of things like this, but learn that it's not really as bad...as an example the 23andme...they weren't hacked, someone just stole peoples passwords and people reused them but everyone talked as though 23andme was somehow lacking in cybersecurity]
  14. Hi Everyone, i wanted to ask if there is any way to use Hyperbackup to Google Shared Drives ? Regards
  15. Good old "depends" answer here. By debloating? Not much, if at all, just gonna save some storage since you won't have many unused modules installed, but you may get bitten in the future for lacking some module for a device you got later lol CPU on a modern system won't bring you any noticeable benefit tbh. You could get more perf by tuning some stuff, such as changing the CPU and IO schedulers and whatnot. Depends on your distro (each distro/maintainer decides how to build their software), but most ones do O2. AFAIK, clear linux does 03, but to be honest the different isn't that relevant: https://www.phoronix.com/review/linux-kernel-o3 You'd be better off by enabling architecture specific stuff, like AVX-512 and whatnot, if you do have those available, otherwise it's a moot point. Meh, I doubt you'll be able to notice the difference in boot times. Systemd would be a tradeoff between practicality (I really like it to manage services) for a little bit faster boot time and less disk usage, but you won't gain much CPU time or that much less RAM usage without it. Why don't you try going through the linux from scratch project to actually learn this stuff and get a grip on everything from toolchains, build processes, system components and whatnot? Have you actually looked at what is using those 400MB? No they won't because a system is not just the kernel, and the kernel is just a minor part when it comes to overall resource usage. The actual kernel and init ram usage is pretty irrelevant overall, just as an example, here's what dmesg gives me during boot time for my memory: [ 0.272625] Memory: 131637872K/134094480K available (16384K kernel code, 2119K rwdata, 12920K rodata, 3432K init, 3828K bss, 2456348K reserved, 0K cma-reserved) So ~16.4MB for the kernel (Arch's default one with nvidia and some other extra modules loaded), ~3.4MB for the init system. For a desktop system, you could save maybe some extra 10MB or so, but is that any relevant? If you're working on an embedded system that's really constrained (I even have some linux devices that only have 64MB of ram, and it's not uncommon to see ones with 16MB of RAM or so) then I can see the point on learning how to build a slim system (again, LFS is a great resource for this), but for anything with over 500MB of RAM I wouldn't care. This point is also kinda moot when talking about such constrained/embedded devices since you would either be using a provided image that's likely slim enough, or you'd be building your own system from scratch anyway. You could also get it on the low two digits by replacing the init with a small program that just prints "hello world" and then goes on a useless busy loop, but that wouldn't be any useful haha The issue is that you often make a really broad question (which more often than not the answer is "depends"), rarely ever go into any relevant details, and do a mix of "will I have any benefit?" + "it's just for lols". So yeah, maybe you should phrase better what you actually want to achieve and are your measurement of "worth it or not". Look into htop and you should have some stuff already running in the background using memory, along with caches. You can also take a look at the running services with a "systemctl | grep running"
  16. In which case turn off your e cores and overclock to 5.5ghz on ur current cpu and look into decent ram to overclock would be money spent
  17. Sorry for quoting i missed the last part of your comment. Pop ins isnt normal where stuff pop in at distance but this is the opposit where stuff pop in at close range + grimey picture shimmer and everything at once. All my hardwares got this issue after moving
  18. It does technically however I feel you might cook the shit out of the vrm, I’d be pointing a fan at the vrm bare minimum and be prepared to underclock and undervolt to 5.3 On the p cores psu should be fine if you don’t alow an insane power limit something like 300w on the cpu
  19. It’s cellular internet. So there are limitations and it’s much easier for the service to be congested. Speed will vary. Latency/Ping will be higher.
  20. Really depends on what you're doing. My Debian server running a mail server and associated services (e.g. Postgres) and some Docker containers uses around 850 MiB. The rest of the memory is cache (~2.6 GiB), leaving only around 360 MiB completely unused/wasted. This is with everything running stock, no custom kernel or anything.
  21. You're welcome! Honestly, I should have joined a long time ago since I've been watching the channel for a long time. This was just the push I needed I guess to signup. It was too good not to share so I hope everyone gets a kick out of it.
  22. I really hope someone can help me because I don't know what to try anymore
  23. I think I'll go with verizon, anything I need to know?
  24. I have changed pc 2 times sadly. But this occured after a new apartment. And whatever i plugg in from the old apartment causes issues for the new hardware
