    Lucian Andries got a reaction from eskamobob1 in Looking For An Android App That Locks Phone Settings   
    Yeah no... I still want them to use THEIR phones.
    I only need it to not let them enable/disable the phone's settings from the swipe down menu. Oh, and not delete/move the app shortcuts from the home screen.
     
    What you said, is totally different.

    Are you still looking for an aptX HD dongle?
     
    How about this Bluetooth 5.0 dongle from Creative, it has aptX, aptX HD and aptX LL:

    I got it for me, and it's cool.

    What you need for console competitor:
    CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 or Core i5-10400F? (closest match would be Ryzen 7 4800H)
    (preferable better, tough you may get away with 1st or 2nd gen Ryzen 7)
    GPU: Radeon 6700/6700 XT or GeForce RTX 3060/3060 Ti?
    Storage: Any SSD? (m.2 is best match)
    Case PSU: Anything that can fit the specs above,

    I don't agree with this.
     
    I think that if someone were to attempt this, knowing what LTT went through in terms of parts not working with each other and being sent the wrong thing is actually valid.

    Lucian Andries reacted to Brawhammer in PC Master Race - Beating the Series X   
    Think this was perhaps one of the most useless videos I've ever seen on this channel.
     
    - Single Channel Memory?
    - Pointless talking about parts which didn't work together? Did you legit just read out what you attempted as an attempt to extend the video minutes? Why do we need to know what you did behind the scenes with weirdo chinese parts?
    - All used parts, like you even said it yourself, the graphics card looked like it game from a mining rig. 
    - Fire hazard motherboard???????
    - "our initial plans didn't work, so we got lazy and just used a old process from the warehouse"????
     
    Feels like genuinely out of ideas shit here. And I feel like I see this kind of video every now and then. Which might explain also why I'm exhausted with seeing the same old same old.
     
    This does absolutely nothing for the notion of buying used in order to get parts in. Why don't you just accept the consoles are genuinely a good deal instead of steering customers towards hardware failure.

    Isn't the Doom test not that correct? In the video is, what I assume using dynamic scaling ( the % next to resolution) which isnt really "true" 4K when it isnt 100% - that would explain 1070 working so well and having 60fps, even though at times it drops to 50% of 4K. 🤔

    Yup. And this has been the case with most mustard racer videos of this type over the years.
     
    It's time we left 2014 in the last decade guys. 2 million people are dead this decade already that didn't need to be. Lets drop this mustard racer crap for good, and just appreciate what we still have. Consoles and PCs both made our lockdown time so much easier.

    This still wasn't an apples to apples comparison, if your price to match is the price of a new Xbox then you should only be allowed to use new parts. If your using used parts the you should also be comparing the price to a used Xbox.

    You guys are better than this mustard race bull, please stop.
     
    All platforms are great. We are lucky to have so much choice, and so much stuff to enjoy.
     
    Your build is also full of second hand parts, and half of them didn't even work, so you actually spent a lot more. Which you're comparing to the *new RRP of another product. Also your build has a quarter of the storage. Seriously this was a low quality video premise and should have been scrapped during planning.
     
    I know you just got braces Linus, but that does not justify a regression into tween mentality.
     
    You guys are better than this, which is why I watch you over some other PC Youtubers. Please remember you're adults.

    I'd say that the main point for getting a PC is that you're not subject to Microsoft's monopoly on software distribution and don't have to pay a monthly subscription for features that are free on the PC.
    Microsoft is selling Xboxes at cost because they're in a position to squeeze more money out of you in the long run.

    No need to reverse engineer - it's open source, and available at https://github.com/hdodov/conveuro. You can download a zip file of the code from there, then extract it and edit the currency info in extension/event-page/_src/js/currencies.js (to remove a currency you would need to remove all of the lines from "CODE": { to the matching }, (such as all the lines highlighted here: https://github.com/hdodov/conveuro/blob/master/extension/event-page/_src/js/currencies.js#L26-L35)). The edited files can then be installed into chrome by loading it in developer mode per https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/getstarted#manifest.

    Publishing the extension is just so you get updates and support for it. But no matter how it's installed, it will always function normally, access the internet and request info from other websites, etc...

    You can enable developer mode and import a local version. This is what gab does with its comment extension after being banned from all the things

    Nvidia made it so you can easily install RTX Voice on GTX cards, you no longer have to go into the installation and edit it to install it. So if you are not using the camera function I don't see a reason to use Broadcast at all

    Trying to get the NVIDIA BROADCAST APP to work on laptop with GTX 1060.
    My current progress,
    download the app: https://www.nvidia.com/nl-nl/geforce/broadcasting/broadcast-app/ run the install leave open go to C:\temp copy folder 'NVIDIABroadcast' close app installer. copy folder back to C:\temp in file 'setup.cfg' on line 75. change the level value to 'warn' <custom name="NvBroadcastSupportCheck" text="${{NVIDIABroadcastNotSupportedMessage}}" level="warn"/> start "C:\Temp\NVIDIABroadcast\setup.exe" you still get not supported gpu warning but you can continue That is how far I could go.
    Think in the "NVIDIABroadcast\NvVirtualCamera\NvVirtualCamera.nvi" file you would need to change something else to pass the virtual camera checks, but can't figure out.

    I see this post already has an answer, but I will comment anyway.
    I use CSR Harmony for my BT-118 Bluetooth dongle, to get access to the apt-x codex it has support for.
