  1. so i have a lot of ideas but no way to get them out. i don't know crap about editing at the moment but want to learn so i was wondering what free video editing software (windows or Linux) would work for video editing. adobe is too expensive for me at the moment for the full versions and i don't like the subscriptions model either as the winter months its hard to pay for more than rent food gas ect. things im looking to do/learn if possible on free software green/blue screens changing the audio/ading background music inserting objects into the video. example putting an object over some ones face some edits/vfx i want to try to do at at some point and yes i know it wont come easy to do and will look like crap most likely yes i know trhis video is stupid but its another thing i wanna do
  2. noise is only an minor issue because its sitting directly on the metal frame till i get some foam sticky pads but its negligable noise it was just realy quiet thats why i noticed it i was just curious about its longevity as i no longer have any way to save any side money(till i get a better job) and buying replacement parts are extremely difficult now that my secret only i know about stash lost its funding source
  3. so i replaced my dead ek pump/res combo with an ek pwm d5 pump and seporate res and i hear it speeding up and slowing down as the temps go up and down is it safe that its doing that also is what i heard about leaving it at full speed dangerous and will kill the pump in a very short time? idle its going about 30c and about 5-55c while playing games running ida64 stress test and depending on the game 40-51 thats with the pump in variable speed mode set to standard mode on fanxpert3 no difference in temps when set to turbo setting cpu is 4790k and an 290x on one loop 360 thick rad not overclocked at the moment

  5. up until 2 days ago i could see all the topics in my rss feed on my phone but now i see nothhing was the rss feed taken out or something all my other rss feeds show up i tried removing linustechtips.com and tried to read it but nothing shows up any more and i cant re add it. im using feedly on my phone for rss feeds
  6. so i was using the $20 starter pump/res combo from the ek L-360 kit up until Saturday when it magically seized up overnight when the pc was off. so in an emergency went down to microcenter and bought an ek-xtop d5pwm-(incl. pump) and a new res. after putting it in, reconfigure half my loop, and rinsed out my carpet cleaner(for the red coolant that spilled allover my carpet when the plug came off the tube), i turned it on almost fd up the pump because if an air lock (didn't notice(black tubing in basement) keeping the fluid from moving to the pump and proceeded to play dirty bomb as my bench mark for temps(only game i played enopugh to remember the rad output temp). after an hr i noticed that the radiator wasn't pumping out as much heat as before but my system temps seemed to be about same. around 60-70 with furmark and aida 64 running at same time. and about about 50 ish while playing dirty bomb. my question is does the new pump that is way more powerful and not cheaply made have an affect of the temps and explain the lower rad temps. my pc is a 4790k with swifttec apogee 2 block asus 290x direct cuii with ek full cover waterblock with backplate and for fun i have it connected to the mobo vrm cross chill thing
  7. so as part of the anti ms spying/win10 attempts i keep getting the cant detect your network settings when i block the ips on windows 7. i havent done any thing different that ive ever done. i had to reinstall windows due to my pc crashing(wifes fault she is bad luck whn she uses it) and never had an issue before. and i dont know why its doing it now never seen this before i used this script to fix it @Echo on pushd\windows\system32\drivers\etc attrib -h -s -r hosts echo 127.0.0.1 localhost>HOSTS attrib +r +h +s hosts popd ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew ipconfig /flushdns netsh winsock reset all netsh int ip reset all shutdown -r -t 1 ive been using this with out issues before https://voat.co/v/technology/comments/853510 but runnign it causes the issue using this gives same issues https://github.com/WindowsLies/BlockWindows so i tried barnacules recommendation and went with spybot anti beacon and get the same problem any one know what ip/ web address ms uses to connnect to verify proxy settings so i can avoid blocking it p.s i like my privacy and m.s has no right to my personal files/information
  8. i dont think they exist. i have a network based one from silcondust. its network based and does 3 channels at one time on up to 3 devices
  9. I want an ssd because....... I have the need the need for speed!!!!!!!! And because I gave my ssd to my kid Cuz the boot times and app launch times were horrible
  10. On I have an extra 16 gb m.2 ssd I pulled out of my laptop that I upgraded to an 120 gig m.2 and 240 gig 2.5 ssd. So now I have a 2nd pc that is dual booting win 7 and win 10(insider preview) that is win 7 ssd and an 500gb hdd for apps and a 1tb hdd for win 10. My question is can I cache the 2 hdd with one ssd. it's laying around so I figured I'd put it to use before it getz broken and I know I can do one disk but I'd like to do 2 drives Cuz I can if I can. My main rig is an all ssd machine with a two 2tb drives in raid for mass storage redundancy.
  11. i have a 25 wat cfl that outputs equivalent of a 100 watt incandescent bulb my light says max 60w bulbs since the cfl bulb is only 25 watts and runs cooler can i use it. its for an out door light bulb that died and would like to have the extra light outside plus its buried in my closet for almost a yr because it was on clearance for almost nothing and i dint know my wife had bought it
