    avrona got a reaction from Letgomyleghoe in Most Keys on Keyboard Stopped Working and Manufacturer Won't Give Warranty Service   
    They claim they don't want to do it because I got it directly from them instead of buying it. And sadly I can't really afford a new keyboard right now or for ages so I'm look for pretty much any other alternative at this point to get this sorted.

    avrona got a reaction from PositiveRaisin2 in Which Is Better For a Minecraft Server?   
    When it comes to hosting a MC server I have 2 options, either running it through my test bench, which features an fx-8350 which I can overclock if needed, and 24 GB RAM, and which will run nothing but the server, or run it on my normal PC, which has a Ryzen 3700X and 32GB RAM, but the server would have to share resources with the game itself, Discord, Chrome, etc. So which PC would run the server better?

    I don't have the option in the context menu, and like I said in the OP whenever I tried to change any permissions in the security tab that also doesn't seem to be working.

    Certain locations won't allow me to write to them for whatever reason despite me being an admin and the only account on the PC. The security tab "trick" doesn't work either, whenever I try to do it, it just says "access is denied" for every single item. How do I fix it, or can I just remove all need for permissions on the whole PC? I remember doing it somehow or at least to some extent using the Registry Editor in Windows, though I can't remember exactly how, so does someone know how to do it? I'm using Windows 10 in the latest version.

    Last time I checked just saying your opinion on something isn't trolling, though I am kinda bored of just saying my point here over and over and have people take things I take out of context, the full video has been released and up on my channel if you want to know my full opinion on the matter and not just snippets of it on a forum.

    Have you considered that they maybe no? Have you maybe instead of fighting what I said every step of the way for no reason and clinging to your idea, have you considered that there could be some logic in my logic here?
    Thankfully I don't live in either of these countries, additionally here you don't need to do anything with your company, no tax, audits, etc, as long as you earn below a certain amount of profit each year. Besides the chances of your house burning down are rather small, and besides that just sounds like a really broken approach. Isn't it better to invest in ways to prevent a fire from destroying your entire house to protect everything in it, instead of just investing in a backup to protect just your data?

    I do value my data, yet still I don't back it up, simply because there still doesn't seem to be a need for it. The closest I do to it is what I like to call "unintentional backups", which actually protected me from the only data loss I've experienced.

    There's also a lot of other horrible things that can happen to us everyday, but we don't do anything about it as the odds are as low as of drive failure. So where's the difference?

    avrona got a reaction from LukeSavenije in Finally Upgrading From fx-8350 + 1080 Ti to Ryzen 3700x   
    Ever since 2014 I've been using a fx-8350 + R9 280x prebuilt. I upgraded that graphics card to a 1080 Ti in October of last year, along with it switching it a 4k monitor. This was a great leap for me as it finally allowed me to play games at max settings way more easily, made making videos for my channel a lot easier, and gaming at 4k was just a dream of mine for ages anyway. But now I've also finally upgraded my CPU, motherboard, RAM, and PSU also, to finally make it a bit more modern. Although gaming performance barely went up (from 1-5 frames approx.) editing, recording, streaming, and much more are way easier now, and it also gave me several more topics to talk about in videos so that's always nice. Though I am kind of disappointed by the lack of increases in gaming, which is still my PC's main focus, it was worth it for the actual upgrading, as I wanted to do things like preparing a new motherboard with a CPU and everything for ages now, as over the past few years I've become really into tech and hardware, but never had a chance to really build much of a PC before. All I've really under until then is upgrade my graphics card and stuff like that.

    Why? Most 8pins only have one ground wire more and sense. On some(old) psu:s there can be only 2x 12V wires in a 6-pin.
