    Not finding anything in Google Photos' settings.
     
    And to be fair, the issue here likely isn't Apple, it's Google.  The app has access to Photos, so that means you should get to specify which albums you back up. Admittedly "oh no, I have backups of more than I wanted" isn't the worst problem to have, but you'd hope Google would do better.

    Tronnic got a reaction from Required in Linus Tech Tips Affiliates, Referral Programs and Sponsors   
    Hey @CPotter @LinusTech, I am a little disappointed. I was looking for a VPN. Since I am a big fan of LTT I wanted to support you guys so I headed directly to your affiliates-site and clicked on the PIA link and ordered the 6 Month plan. Now, 1 day later, I noticed that the pricing is much cheaper if you visit their site without your link. Why is that? ?
     
    Left is direct, right is LTT link. I basically wasted a half year worth of VPN. I know that this probably isn't your fault, but you might want to tell your audience that it's cheaper if you go there without your link. 
     
    Edit: Just a heads up, I contacted PIA about this and they gave me a new account for a cheaper price.

    if you google your mobo it seems to be an issue many others are having as well, attached is that link. sorry i cant be of more help, however there are a ton of "solved" posts listed in google and you may try doing some of the things listed, however i would be careful about whether or not a site is reputable before following advice: https://www.google.com/search?q=Asus+ROG+Strix+Z270F+Gaming+dram+light&rlz=1C1AVFC_enUS763US763&oq=Asus+ROG+Strix+Z270F+Gaming+&aqs=chrome.0.69i59j69i57j0l4.3017j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

    Tronnic reacted to Oshino Shinobu in Linus.. Your RGB Virus finally affected me   
    Thanks. Hmm, I think I like it best with the LEDs on the fans off, or just with the front fan LEDs at a dim blue. I'm a big fan of mostly black with accent colours in builds. I feel like the fans take it a little closer to what most RGB builds are (ie. ALL THE RGB).
     
    Either way, you've done RGB well. More of a glow than a light, which is how RGB should be done IMO.

    Tronnic reacted to AkiraDaarkst in Thanks LTT for letting me stare at 4 black bars :'(   
    The black rectangle below is your typical 16:9 aspect ratio.  Red is 16:10, Green is 4:3, Blue is 21:9, Yellow is 2.76:1.  There is also 17:9 which I didn't include and it's just a bit wider than the width of the black rectangle, and other aspect ratios I omitted.  If you want to film something and make a video that can be reformatted to other aspect ratios, either by cropping, stretching, scaling in post production or let the video player do those things automatically then your only safe area to film is typically the area I shaded grey.  That means there's a lot of dead space that cannot contain any essential element that has to be in the video.  If anything important to the video lies in the dead space, unless watching the video on a screen with the same aspect ratio as the original production, formatting the video to be viewed with any other aspect ratio means important elements can be lost.
     
    So get over it and suck it up, you're watching video on screens with less common aspect ratios.

    Tronnic reacted to -rascal- in Voltage confusion (965 BE)   
    The temperature scaling with increased voltage is NOT linear. It's exponential. There will be a point where a small amount in voltage adjustment will yield a HIGH temperature increase.
     
     
    Correct.
     
     
     
    Putting excessive voltage through a electronic device will cause Electronmigration.
    This, over time, will cause permanent irreversible damage to the device / part.
     
    This is why you see people with CPUs with overclocks that will all of a sudden become unstable.
     
    Example:
    Someone has their Phenom II X4 965 running a 4.2GHz for 3 years. At the time, it passed all vigorous stability tests. No problems for 3 straight years. Then out of the blue, the CPU decides to BSOD with the overclock settings -- or now requires more voltage to keep 4.2GHz stable.

    Oh and I cant say it enough. Im sooooooooooooooooooooo impresseed. Had R9 290X's. Now got 980 Phantom's. There were no reviews at all, it was a "blind" buy but it was the right decision!
