Ey yall, been a while!

Anyone know how I can get a pair of Sennheiser HD 4.50 BTNC headphones fixed? I think either the battery or motherboard is fried (wired use works, but the drivers don't work as well without power, and Bluetooth is obviously completely gone), and my warranty is out of date + doesn't cover water damage. I just want to find a place that'll do this repair (for less than the price of a new one) 

Shitty laptop comparison:

Should I choose an AMD a4 chip or an Intel Celeron chip? Used for basic word processing and some light program usage tasks. 

Not sure how to ask this question to Google. 

Windows thinks I have 2 hard drives with windows 10 on each. but in fact i only have one. Therefore, every time I boot up, I need to tell Windows Boot Manager to use the hard drive that's actually there. How do I make it forget the old HDD?

Has anyone else used Blloc Ratio?

I am ridiculously lucky to be in the exact position I am in in life. 

But reading my program's new Coronavirus regulations is a BIT anxiety inducing

FUCK EVERY SINGLE COLLEGE SITE THAT IS REGION LOCKED SO I CAN'T EVEN DO A SIMPLE APPLICATION WITHOUT REMOTING INTO MY DADS COMPUTER BECAUSE SOMEHOW VPNs DON'T WORK

Found a laptop dumped on the side of the road in a very religious neighborhood near Jerusalem today. It didn't have a battery in it, and I figured they trashed it. Buuuut the hard drive still has files on it. I snooped a lil bit and found the name of the owner, gonna see if they want the hard drive back. 

I feel like I'm in a moral grey area? 

My phone and my charger are being really odd. Each component works separately, the cable, the wall wart, my phone charging port itself, but all together they won't work at all... And now my phone is at 0 percent but it's still on cuz it's plugged in but the battery itself won't charge. 

Is there anything stopping me from using YouTube as a low key plex server type service? 

In other words, I could upload movies that I have on my computer, make them unlisted videos, and stream them from anywhere.

Concern would be, would YouTube flag it as pirating content? 

Okay so theoretically, if I had a pirated copy of a game (sayyyyyy, GTA V) and then installed a real copy on top of it, would it work, or would it make a bunch of new files in the same folder? (the goal being to save download data on a metered connection)

(P.S. I'm not condoning anything... this is a PURELY hypothetical situation.)

Has anyone tried the Ratio Launcher from Blloc? 

Anyone here play Stellaris? I have a really weird bug.

My minerals are at -1k, but up until a few days ago (IRL) my monthly trade with the galactic market took care of that easy peasy. Now, the game keeps telling me my min max price isn't good, even though I HAVEN'T SET ONE. 

I tried hiking the mineral trade up slowly, increasing the amount by little bits every month until I got to 1.2k, when it just bugs out and says the min max price is stopping the trade. I tried again, now it stops at 600. And if I increase by too large of an amount, boom gone. And remember, I didn't set a min max at all!

Can't find this specific bug anywhere.

Been playing DND over Discord recently, pretty fun.

So happy I have my dorm gaming machine during social distancing 

Anyone got experience fixing headphone batteries? 

My Sennheiser HD 4.50 BTNC battery random shorted I guess and now it doesn't work at all. I can technically use it with an AUX cable, but the noise canceling and Bluetooth is fucked. Its out of warranty by like a year, but I don't wanna just chuck them in the trash.
