They'll only have the "medicinal" tea if even more Lüften didn't do the trick
Hi, my laptop got fried because of getting caught in the rain :(
I got a gaming laptop for work a few years ago, because appearantly the CPU AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX was about the best thing to be found for updating some ridiculously complicated excel power query circusses at work, according to the internet back then (i think I found that info on pc master race on reddit before the reddit-api-fall), and finding those CPU's in business laptops was rather difficult at the time. They were right, this CPU handled the queries like a walk in the park.
Is the AMD Ryzen 9 6900H* still a very good CPU for this kind of thing, or should I put in a lot more time investigating again, is there better cost-efficiency available now in other CPU?
Sorry if this is not a right place for this question. I'm usually not really a hardware guy. Just need a CPU that handles this Excel shit as fast as possible, preferably without locking up the entire machine and without being as noisy as an F16 getting ready for lift off. On "regular" work laptops with i5 or i7, these files can take literally over an hour to update.
For example on wikipedia for Switzerland it says the country has an area of 41,285 km². Does this take into account that a lot of that area is actually angled at a steep inclination, thus the actual surface area is in effect larger than what you would expect when looking onto a map in satellite view?
Use UBlock, sponsorblock, firefox, etc. Recently it broke again, some stupid permission to connect youtube to other google services pop-up is permablocking it and I can't be bothered investigating.
Go to FreeTube cause why not. Works rather well for how it works. Especially for listening to albums it is fine, for video it's often too slow.
They found a way to inject bullshit in there too, now? And basically everywhere.
Albums are sometimes uploaded as 1 long video. Those are fun. Often they're uploaded as all songs seperately and then there's a playlist which makes it 'the album'. They used to be okay too.
Not anymore. People started injecting bullshit videos within the playlists. No, Andrew fucking Tates bullshit is not part of this album. Fuuuu. ANDREW I CAN'T STAY FUCKING MOTIVATED BECAUSE SOME ARSEHOLE INJECTED YOUR BULLSHIT VIDEO INTO THE MUSIC PLAYLIST I'LD LIKE TO LISTEN TO WITHOUT YOUR BULLSHIT INTERRUPTIONS!
I need to work on permanently replacing youtube. It no longer serves its purpose (for me of listening to albums) reliably.
I dislike the fact even more then the idea.
Called a bank recently.
They: "please say in a word the subject your call is about so we can immediately connect you to the right department "
Me: "LOAN"
They: you said "limits on your cards", 1 for yes 2 for no
I tried 3 times, gave up. They won, I guess.
Passive cooling and designing buildings to not overheat during summer in the first place is the way. And phoenix or Las Vegas shouldn't be much more than a gas station, they're unlivable hellholes without permanently pumping enormous amounts of energy in.
Giant Douche vs Turd Sandwich. Again. USA needs to somehow break free from the 2-party nonsense.
Hi, First, is it possible to set the steamdeck to "default" to always keep picking the steamdeck speaker as default audio out also when an HDMI is connected through the USB-C? I have an old monitor (VGA to HDMI to USB-C haha) and would be easiest to still just output audio in the steamdeck speaker by default. It is easy to switch audio outputs in desktopmode, not in gaming mode unfortunately can't switch to steamdeck speaker there, doesn't work.
Second, how do y'all combine music and games? I prefer to play games while listening to youtube full albums (freetube or similar) in background. Doesn't really seem to integrate well in gaming mode either? Tried adding Monophony and Freetube as non-steam games, but not very succesful. What's your suggestion for optimizing the setup?
Sorry for the noob-questions. Pic unrelated, sort of.
Society's got priorities wrong.
most car travels are 1 person or sometimes 2 person
the majority of car travels are quite short, less than 40km.
many car travels are just to get some groceries or drop of a little package or just say "hi" to someone, carrying nothing but themselves.
cars are fucking expensive, to buy and to maintain
accidents become way worse with heavier vehicles
Microcar is a valid answer to all of these, while still being sheltered from weather.
How are urban places (i'm in Belgium) with almost permanent super heavy road traffic congestion, bad climate statistics, high polution values, very limited available space left, no self-sustaining energy production and high traffic accident statistics still pooring in billions and billions in subsidies year after year into "regular" big heavy SUV-like vehicles instead of these? It's beyond my comprehension. The only real valid reason i somewhat get is the collective scare of being in a crash and not wanting to be in the smaller vehicle. We could save the climate, we choose not to.
A lot of people here casually spend more on a sunday racing bike every few years for fucks sake.
Imagine a world where talented engineers would put their minds to work for solving big problems instead of ... I'm not sure wtf this is.
Taalen's PIN > 0001 confirmed.
Yes both
The fact that 1 single person gets to decide arbitrarily who is or isn't allowed to voice bullshit 'facts' on a worldwide medium that is copy-pasted by every newsagency and newspaper as if it is a main and legit source of actual news is just very very wrong.
I'm not young. But 25 years after the hype, I am finally getting around to playing half life (1)! Stupidly missed the free action, but paid a few eurocents for it. They're totally worth it! Awesome game, holds up very very well after two and a half decades!
All easy decisions, in hindsight. In reality quite a few missed out completely on all of those or lost significantly. It's all just some sort of gambling in a casino. I'm sure in hindsight it will be clear which opportunities you missed out on in your time. The big difference is being able to save to start off with, because wages were relatively a lot higher for simple jobs than they are now.
Entschuldigung, wenn dies nicht der richtige Ort für diese Frage ist, aber weiß jemand, warum diese Aufstriche von Lidl verschwunden sind? Die in den Glasdosen. Lidl, bitte bring sie zurück. Ich danke euch.
Good cycling infrastructure works better than any helmet, if you're cycling with a helmet, don't forget getting involved in trying to make your area more cycle safe, too.
Don't heat food in plastic in the microwave. Put in the effort to put it in glass or a plate or so, then heat.
Don't store hot leftovers in plastic.
Don't buy and drink plastic bottled water.
If you can in the stores in general chose between food and drinks packaged in glass or cardboard vs anything else: chances are glass or cardboard packaging is the healthier choice. Aluminum cans should still be okayish too, tho they possibly layered it with plastic inside too depending on the pH of the contents to slow down reactions between can and product.
Chances are many are still working. They're combining eating with socialising with peers in the hundreds of bars and restaurants and discussing many things, including work related stuff... which is a lot healthier than always eating alone at your desk.
