      no kidding, this was my haven from twitter but it seems like this place isn’t much better.  I used to really like it here, but i’m glad i’ve grown up.

    lttf not have vile takes about women and minori…

    I've been around, I just don't poke my head into here or other tech circles often anymore Also if you go to GCJ then you'd know that this breed of Gamer hasn't died off yet, and that things like GamerGate are still around for... some reason

  4. Poking my head in again to say congrats to Emily and I wish her nothing but the best with her journey.

     

     

  5. Takes over a company and drives it into the ground with short-sighted decision-making, a complete disregard for safety, security and separating test environments from production environments, and terrible humor.

     

    Pic unrelated.

  6. Dusting off my account again to say that we were told we're getting the real-life Tony Stark as CEO, but instead we got Wheatley from Portal 2. At least Wheatley was funny. btw it's been not even 3 weeks and he's looking at resigning already
  7. Jen Gentleman replied to me on Twitter and said that it seems my computer hit a safeguard, and linked me this. I'm not really sure what it means but apparently it'll be automatically lifted after some point.
  8. Pretty sure my laptop that shipped with Windows 11 isn't unsupported. In addition, it passes the PC Health Check... check. I don't understand why it's not letting me install 22H2.
  9. If I can't find anything I might just try replacing the display myself because I cba to send this into Lenovo, especially since my old desktop doesn't have a graphics card anymore and was crashing if I put it under a moderate load, and my only other usable computer is a low-end Chromebook a friend got me for my birthday. It's my device, I should be able to try to fix it myself. I already have some potential panels lined up, I just need to recover from shoulder surgery when that happens in a few days and get the money for the panel.
  10. They couldn't get me any proper support beyond telling me "just reset it lol" a day before I went to visit friends. I'd seek local support but there are no authorized Lenovo repair shops in my state or any nearby states apparently. It's very on/off, and I have no clue what triggers it. The other day it was working just fine, and I was using the internal display as a third monitor to watch DSU prog on Twitch. Then, I joined a Discord call and the backlight started flashing on and off. I don't get it.
  11. Yes, but the return window expired months ago. I'd have to go through Lenovo if I need to go through that route now. please excuse me, I am re-learning how forums work gfkdhdfg
  12. I don't know and I don't know how to diagnose that.
  13. I have the AMD iGPU off in the BIOS rn. Only the 3060 is enabled. Speaking of, I have not seen this happening while in the BIOS either.
  14. Didn't think I'd be here again but lol

     

    Anyway I need help with my lapped top and have no idea what I'm doing pls help 

     

  15. So back in January I got a Lenovo Legion 5 Pro with a Ryzen 7 5800H and RTX 3060 to replace my desktop as it was giving me so many issues and I was unable to keep up with them. It's a wonderful machine! It's significantly faster than my old desktop while not having any of the myriad of issues I experienced before retiring it! Except one thing: the internal display likes to flicker black. The actual panel stays on, but the backlight just turns off and starts flickering on and off. It's been doing this since I got it, and I have no idea why. I've tried asking Lenovo for help, and they were useless. I've tried asking on r/LenovoLegion in case someone else there had a similar issue, and got no response. I've tried random things I've found online, and nothing's worked so far. So I'm at wit's end. I really want to keep this machine, it's been nothing but wonderful otherwise. But this makes traveling with it, as you do with a laptop, hard. I figured I might as well ask here in case any L5P owners here had a similar problem. I should also note that normally at home I keep it plugged into two monitors, one 1440p and one 1080p and both FreeSync-enabled, and neither of them have the same issue. I dunno if that means anything or not. pls help

  20. think I'm gonna sell my old laptop collection tbh

  21. oh, alright I don't think we can deny that sex workers made OF into what it is, tho.
  22. Well yes, of course. Ending our dependence on oil is gonna have the biggest impact out of everything. Not including the charger with a phone is gonna just be a drop in the ocean compared to that.

    every single time I look at the system76 launch…

    For some reason System76 decided to not use a standard layout or caps bigger than 1.5u, resulting in this mess. There's almost nothing that makes it a compelling buy over other 75% boards, aside from maybe an incredibly niche thing (you can machine and 3D print the casing, caps and PCB yourself), but that alone doesn't justify $280 for this thing when there are better 75% keyboards that not only have most of the same features but better features than it for $100 less.
