    lieder1987 reacted to dilpickle in Cellular On PC (Windows)   
    That is a data only SIM. It won't make calls or send SMS directly.
     
    If you have a cell phone there are ways to have the calls and texts synced to your PC.

    lieder1987 reacted to Kilrah in Is it okay to use the same psu cables on a different psu with the same wattage?   
    Ususally NO, the pinout on PSU side varies between manufacturers, and sometimes even between models of the same manufacturers resulting in a risk of frying stuff with mismatched cables. It might be OK but you first need to make 100% sure they are the same using either published pinouts for both exact models or by measuring.

    This post makes me feel young again when i like you was perplexed at the weird anomaly's of download speeds. 

    MB = Megabytes
    Mb = Megabits
     
    1MB = 8Mb
     
    Your internet will be 500Mb/s - This roughly match's the 50MB/s shown on steam once you allow for router QoS and other network traffic.

    lieder1987 reacted to Blue4130 in Steam Download Speeds don't match Internet Speeds?   
    Steam defaults to Megabytes/s and internet plans are sold as megabits/s, that is likely where you issue is. 50 MB/s is roughly 420mb/s.

    Kings Bounty The Legend is FREE right now on GOG. 90% Very Positive reviews on Steam... Link.

    You have until September 4th, 2023 to claim and keep this game forever.
     
    Originally released on September 23, 2008 by Katauri Interactive, a Russian game dev studio founded in 2004 by members of Elemental Games. This is a tactical RPG based upon the King's Bounty property released by New World Computing in 1990 and blends elements of the original game with a modernized interface and gameplay elements.
     
    The game's story sees players taking on the role of a special treasure hunter for a king, who soon becomes embroiled on a quest to save their daughter and prevent their world from being destroyed. Since its release the game has received favorable reviews and a number of sequels using the same engine. These include King's Bounty Armored Princess, King's Bounty Crossworlds, King's Bounty Warriors of the North and King's Bounty Dark Side. A sequel in a new engine, King's Bounty II, was released on August 24, 2021.

    lieder1987 reacted to CPotter in LMG Sponsor "Do Not Work With List"   
    Hey,
     
    Please see below for a list of product verticals that we don't work with. Please note this list is subject to change.
     
    Drugs / Alcohol
    We do not believe this is responsible for us to promote at this time.
     
    Crypto / NFT’s / ICO’s
    Many of our team members believe crypto has long-term potential, but the market is largely unregulated and flooded with scams and people/groups with your worst interest in mind. This is not a field we want to get mixed up in at this time.
     
    Credit Loans
    Large life decisions like taking out loans is not between us and our audience. We are not financial advisors. We have worked with banks in the past who offer these types of services, but we want to avoid promoting them directly at this time.
     
    Drop Shipping as a Service
    “Drop shipping” simply means listing an item that is available from another source. There’s nothing inherently wrong with a retailer listing a product that’s in stock at their supplier’s warehouse… HOWEVER there is a growing industry that offers to help individuals set up their own drop shipping business with basically no standards for the quality of the service and products. 
    After our initial fact-finding, we worked with one of these companies in 2023, but based on community feedback we don’t plan to again.
     
    Gaming Chairs that don’t prioritize ergonomics 
    The market is oversaturated, and only continues to be flooded with low quality lookalikes. We will continue to use our discretion when entering into partnerships with chair companies and closely monitor our community’s feedback.  
    Mental Health/Therapy
    We are pro therapy and advise anyone reading this to prioritize their mental health. With that being said, we would hate for someone's mental health to be negatively impacted by a bad experience with a service that we promoted. We do not intend to promote any companies who profit from these services at this time.
     
    Online Sport Betting
    We do not believe this is responsible for us to promote at this time.
     
    Gambling (More Broadly)
    We do not believe this is responsible for us to promote at this time.
     
    Pay-2-Win Games
    Many free to play games can be predatory. We test mobile games to see if that game can be enjoyed without the NEED to sink money into it. We know this is a fine line, but with our community’s feedback we believe we can separate the bad from the ones that are safe for partnership.
    Eg. Diablo Immortal (On Launch) = Bad. Genshin Impact = Not Bad
     
    Unproven Kickstarters / Indiegogo Campaigns
    We’ve simply seen too many issues with false promises and delivery issues from first-time campaigners. We DO, however, understand that for some companies crowd funding is more of a marketing and demand-evaluation exercise, so we have worked with companies who have had successful campaigns or product launches in the past and our intention is to continue doing so.
     
    VPNs
    We used to partner with Private Internet Access, but they, among others, were acquired by a single holding company, leading to concerns about privacy and data. While we acknowledge the usefulness of VPNs and many members of our team use them - including PIA -  it’s hard for us to PUBLICLY back any specific VPNs given the fluidity of the landscape. Our intention is to just stay out of it for now.

    I mean it makes sense from a business perspective especially for the youtube portion. Those videos are likely seeing minimal if any views so freeing up server space seems like the right call.

    Thanks for the concern everyone. We are still in recovery mode over here and working with YouTube to get everything restored. Will hopefully have a video (or at least an update on WAN Show) to share with you all ASAP, but we want to make sure we get the details right since smaller channels may rely on our experience to help harden their own security.

    A lot of corporations use Employee Monitoring Software to deal with such issues.

    lieder1987 reacted to Alex Atkin UK in Will this run my laptop display?   
    Its not an OLED screen so it should probably be fine.  Its possible for LCDs to get image retention but its usually temporary.
     
    I mean its possible for the local dimming zones to wear out unevenly, but I'd expect that to take a very very long time.  If you're concerned, don't use 100% display brightness, as long the LEDs aren't being driven at 100% its far less likely to be a problem.

    I don’t think so. You could do that on modded X360s and were even able to play games through network shares but it was never offered officially, doubt that changed.
