  1. What application were they using to get this On Screen Display? It doesn't look like MSI Afterburner.
  2. Not OP, but I didn't know this existed - tried it just now on my Win10 box. Thank you friend!

    Spilled wine/soda on my main rig's keyboard. No…

    Been there done that once before myself. For me, it was coffee. Turns out electronics don't like coffee either.
  4. Have you looked in Task Manager to see if anything else is using a lot of CPU, RAM, or Disk time?

    Electronics don't like drinking your wine-soda.
  6. What is Type 4 vs Type 3? Can you tell the difference from visual inspection?
  7. Looks like it's stuck looping thru the entire number bar on the keyboard. I don't suppose a reboot fixes it?

    Running out of browsers... Opera for Whatsapp,…

    I mainline Brave. Chromium browser with all the Google garbage stripped out. Built in adblock that works even on Youtube.
  9. Yeah, while I agree they could determine that it's all harmless traces of isopropyl alcohol, that's not exactly something I expect their RMA department to be trained on. They're going to see evidence of liquid and dismiss it, since 95% of the time, it's water damage. The 5% of the time it's someone's sloppy goop cleanup job is not something the company will really care about. I've personally never left behind such an obvious mess. Next time, try to avoid leaving a mess behind on the board. I know that's little help after-the-fact, but you never want to give them an easy reason to deny your claims.
  10. Genuine AI is terrifying. There's countless fiction showing us why it's a bad idea... Especially when AI meets Military. And yet here we are. Ignoring those warnings. War should always have the human element, lest it become too easy and impersonal, or worst case, our automatic machines turn against us.

    Did I really just get asked if a chicken is too…

    lol what game is this?

    Yes all the time! Little brat lol. She also learned how to avoid Scat Mats so they're basically useless. Gremlin is an entirely accurate term for my little doom floof.

    Which gurl do you want?

    I don't get it. Whats with the anvils and mountains?
  14. I got a cat because they're allegedly low maintenance compared to dogs.  They don't need walks.  They need less attention.  They don't need to be let outside to potty.  And they're cute.

    I was deceived. 

     

    The contents of my trash can are constantly ending up on the floor, she sits in my sink getting fur all over the dishes, she meows at me and/or beats on my door all day because she's bored, and she knocks literally everything off my counters.

       Does she do gravity checks when she’s not being paid attention to?  Cats have certain similarities to babies that never grow up.

      They are low maintenance with the right cat. Some cat breeds are notoriously higher maintenance or the cat individually is just a gremlin. My pair of cats are incredibly low maintenance and only require food, water and their litter be cleaned out.

      Yep. She's something special, but I love her all the same. She sits behind me when I'm in my office, and occasionally she'll move to use me as headrest. It's cute.

      So a smart cat. For cats.  A smart but really food motivated cat can be trainable.  Mine unfortunately is not food motivated.  She also has no interest in laser pointers.  When one is attempted she looks at the pointer rather than the dot with a sort of “really?!” Expression.  She likes string though.

  15. This is a good reason to be wary of alt coins and especially memecoins.
  16. Not sure this applies to that though. This seems more akin to the little tags attached to clothes that must be removed by the cashier.
  17. Pretty sure non-government entities in the US are not allowed to field private armies, for one. Two, the US fields the largest standing military in the world; I'd imagine any shenanigans would be shut down quick.
  18. The issue with the start-page really feels like a pretty minor gripe tbh. As for the sync issue, I honestly can't say I've ever had the problems you're having. Synced across mobile and a couple PCs and I've yet to have sync issues.
  19. Are you saying that companies would field armies and crap if they couldn't just buy competitors? lol you have to be screwing with me.
  20. A moderator already nuked posts in this thread for 'discussing company policies' instead of the technology. I expect this post will be the same. That said, I have tried Mozilla recently and will still use it occasionally to troubleshoot stuff since it's basically the only non Chromium browser left outside of Safari. I think the problem is I am not sure I can trust them with my data anymore since they've made some pro-censorship moves and I'm wary of any company or product that embraces that philosophy.
