  1. I shut my PC down and it won't turn on. When I press the power button, everything lights up and the fans spin up. But, two seconds later, it turns back off by itself. Then it continuously tries to turn itself on, then turns back off until I turn the power supply off. I am unable to reach the BIOS or even the boot screen. If I leave it looping long enough, the PC stays on, but there is no display or USB connection coming out. I saw a post saying the bootloop can occur due to ERP and RGB settings in BIOS (which is something I have changed to disable all RGB recently), and to just wait until the computer does boot and disable it in BIOS. This person's scenario is exactly like mine, however, his boots up after a few loops and allows him to enter bios. Mine just boots and stays running but nothing comes on screen and clicking delete on my keyboard does nothing. I've tried clearing the CMOS but I don't know if I did it correctly. Here's what I tried: 1. Turn off computer (I just held down the power button until the fans stopped spinning) 2. Unplug and turn off power supply 3. Short the two CLRTC pins on bottom right of motherboard for 10 seconds using a screwdriver 4. remove screwdriver 5. plug in and turn on power supply and power on pc (Went back to boot loop and then eventually started but no display or USB) Some additional info: The graphics card has an an board RGB switch and an on board BIOS switch. When I use the BIOS switch while the computer is turned on, I can hear the fans changing speed, and the RBG on/off switch is working normally as well. The motherboard has RGB and a light on the ethernet port to indicate detected input and both are working as well. A couple of seconds after turning the computer on, even though there is no display or USB power, I can see the pc visible on my LAN via my router control panel. The only major part for which I have no indication as to whether or not it is working properly is the PSU, but I don't have any equipment or spare PCs to test it. PC Specs: (It's from Ibuypower and nothing has gone wrong with it in the past 2 years) CPU: Intel i7 9700k GPU: Nvidia RTX 2070 (ROG-STRIX-RTX2070-O8G-GAMING) Cooler: Ibuypower AIO 240 mm Motherboard: Asus TUF Z390-PLUS GAMING (WI-FI) Power Supply: Thermaltake 800w 80+ GOLD
  2. So I have a remote linux server running ubuntu 20.04, and the only way I can access it is via ssh or VNC. I want to install windows on this server because there are several windows applications that I need to run which aren't working with wine. I know how to get the windows install process started using wine on ubuntu, but after after the computer reboots into windows, I will lose all ability to access the machine via ssh or vnc. My question is, is there any way to circumvent this or add an install script to the windows installer so that VNC is automatically installed and set up upon boot?
  3. It just made a post request to my server (first a webpage, then a video). The server just requests the same file, compresses it using brotli, and sends it back, and I measured data usage and time using wireshark.
  4. I didn't think about that, but I did write a script to temporarily simulate what I wanted and it appeared to decrease data usage as well as increase file download speeds.
  5. Recently, my ISP has decrease my maximum bandwidth and I've been looking for ways to maintain my data consumption while staying within the new margins. One idea I had was to set up a personal VPN server on one of my existing cloud servers and compress the data sent between my home network and the server. But, I have no idea where to start. I've set up OpenVPN servers for personal use before but I don't know how I would add compression to that. My server is running Debian 10.4 if that helps.
