    Calico Morgan reacted to Sorenson in Buying My First TV - NON-Smart TV Recommendations   
    The only thing I could think of would be firmware updates and the smart functions. You will still get the same picture quality and picture adjustments. Also, you can usually update firmware with a usb stick. Or, just plug in ethernet only when you want to update the firmware.

    Calico Morgan reacted to 3vxn_5unt in PC won't boot when D.O.C.P. is on   
    Hi, I know this thread is old but I'm having the same problem with a similar spec system.
    Ryzen 5 2600x
    Corsair 2X8GB 3200mghz rgb pro
    Asus rog b450-f
    GTX 1660 Gaming X
     
    I've tried the Ryzen calculator several times but each time the system will either not do anything and give me a DRAM error or boot cycle until it automatically resets the bios. Does anyone know what might cause this?

    We do not allow lmgtfy links .... this is a google search did just for you. it's lists a lot of programs you can use, some are free and will present results dur to being free....(silence) .... and those that are paid will perform like those that should. https://www.bing.com/search?q=phone+calling+applicaons+for+pc&PC=U316&cvid=7a194f6000794d829922d3bfda26cd95&&FORM=ANNTA3&cc=US&setLang=en-US
     
    I personally have used a few of the paid through work and depending on our use case are decent.
    As for personal use I Skype on my persoanl pc and have had very very few issues using it. It can use your number or a new number.

    Calico Morgan reacted to Mick Naughty in Dual PC Local Recording: 1440p- Which GPU do I Use?   
    Yea I’d do cpu always. But if for some reason you want to use gpu, for recording and not streaming, use a card with a matching encoder that you are playing on. Or better. So a 1060 should do fine. 
    Using a 1080 myself as my 4790k isn’t gonna do either well.

    Calico Morgan reacted to BobVonBob in Dual PC Local Recording: 1440p- Which GPU do I Use?   
    Generally a CPU encoder will be higher quality, and if you're recording on a second computer there is no real reason not to use the CPU, since it won't be impacting your game. A decent i5/i7 or Ryzen 5/7 would probably be able to handle that. Conversely if you're set on a GPU encoder, you will want a Tesla based Nvidia card, and in that case any card will do, since it doesn't take anywhere near the same amount of grunt to encode as it does to render a game, and Tesla made significant advances in image quality for GPU encoding.

    Calico Morgan reacted to Slick in Floatplane Subscriptions & Migrating to Floatplane.com   
    As you may have heard we'll be moving all subscriptions off the LTT Forums and on to Floatplane.com. You will no longer be able to subscribe through the forum AND all billing agreements made through the forum will be cut off. At this time we request that all users cancel their subscriptions on the forum and start new subscriptions on Floatplane.com.
     
    Subscriptions done through the forum have been a major accounting problem for a long time now as the forums billing agreements have all been with Linus Media Group instead of Floatplane media which is an accounting nightmare that we are going to try to avoid in 2019.
     
    As a gift for dealing with the hassle of migrating things over, and to cover any time you had left on your subscription, we will be granting two bonus months to all creators that you are subscribed to on Floatplane.com AND you’ll gain access to an exclusive live chat emoji all on January 31st.
     
    Steps to migrate successfully:
    1) Cancel your subscription on the LTT Forum 

    Method 1, Cancelling through the Forum:
      Hide contents  
    Go to this link: https://linustechtips.com/main/clients/billing-agreements/
    click view details(on the right)
    Click on view(on the right)
    Then click cancel(on the left)
     
    These steps are correct for most people but sometimes the cancel button is sneaky and decides to be somewhere else or isn't there at all.. This is another reason we are moving away from the LTT forums as we can't fix some of the payments problems. If these steps don't work for you please move on to Method 2.
     

    Method 2, Cancelling through PayPal:
      Hide contents  
    Go to this link: https://www.paypal.com/myaccount/autopay/
    Scroll through your active autopays and click on 'Linus'.
    On the right hand side there should be a Status row that shows 'Active'  Click the 'Cancel' Button beside it.
    Click 'Cancel Automatic Payments' on the next popup.
    If this fails for whatever reason.. Move on to method 3.
     
     
    Method 3(Last Resort), Sudo cancel subscription:
      Hide contents  
    Send an email to support@floatplane.com
    Let them know your forum Username/Email and they'll take care of you. Just a heads up that the wait time will be higher than normal as we are receiving a lot of support tickets right now.
     
     
    2) Create or sign in to your existing Floatplane.com account, you can use a forum linked account, that's no problem at all. 
     
    3) Subscribe to whatever creators you want to support. https://www.floatplane.com/browse
     
    4) Sit back and enjoy the content!
     
    5) If you had a yearly subscription – Please send an email to support@floatplane.com with your forum account name and your floatplane account name. They will make sure you get the time you had remaining on your forum subscription added to your new floatplane website subscription.

    Yearly options on the new site are not available at this time but will be soon. 
     
    If all else fails.. Just send an email to support@floatplane.com with any relevant account names, emails, etc. and we'll have you taken care as soon as possible!
     
    Thanks!

    Calico Morgan reacted to jiyeon in LTT Sticker from Design by Humans   
    The way the sticker is designed is the design itself on a white background, so of course the white lettering in 'Linus Tech Tips' would be literally invisible.
     
    The Australian e-commerce store RedBubble which is similar to Design By Humans has the same sticker background concept.
     
    Is this the official LTT DBH store or was this an independent seller selling the LTT logo? Either way, shoddy effort with an overlooked design.

    Calico Morgan reacted to knightslugger in FCC Live Stream   
    there's nothing basic about it. What it hinges on is whether or not they feel they have time to address it, and how many never-trumpers and Democrats can get together long enough not to rip each other's throats out to gut this thing.
     
    the good news is that there are enough people in congress that both hate the FCC appointment's appointer and hate the repeal of NN that it COULD get done... but i'll be honest, I'm not holding my breath. Congress is dysfunctional and i'd be surprised if more than 40% actually listen to their constituents.
  21. Agree
    Calico Morgan got a reaction from TopHatProductions115 in FCC Live Stream   
    Guys don't forget that congress can basically vote to overrule the FCC's decision. My only hope is that Republican congressmen have largely been against this decision as well, surprisingly. They're apparently smart enough to realize that their constituents hugely dislike dismantling net neutrality, so they'd better be part of the solution if they hope to be re-elected.
    I choose to HOPE that this will happen...otherwise the US has taken one huge step toward having information infrastructure like that of North Korea. And they talk of freedom...

    With a holster as a requirement, I have no idea. I imagine your options are going to be extremely limited as it's a very niche product. As for reputable brand? Don't even worry about the name on the case. I've bought many cases over the years, and honestly there's no difference between good off brand cases and brand name cases. None at all.

    6 cores, 12 threads would definitely help with streaming while gaming, 4c, 8t might be able to do some streaming with h264 encoding set to fastest, but stream quality is gonna take a sizable hit and/or frames will be dropped
    took your parts list and did a little tweaking, I don't know if the board is any good tbh, and everything will be better if the cpu is bumped up to 3.7 ghz which the stock cooler should handle just fine, up to you and your bro  https://pcpartpicker.com/list/yKMxyf
