    Sounds like it’s a known issue. A factory reset helped one, but not another.
    Someone suggested:

    Go into settings > Device care > Performance profile and set the profile to light.

    Is that setting on yours, it’s not found here, unfortunately, just auto-optimization under Performance.
    On the tablet here there is a Battery section in settings where…[Read more]

    Do appreciate the work gone into the Anandtech and 3dMark sites, the functionality is no doubt a bit more clunky if you don’t sign up.
    This is planned to be a winter PC, thus a slightly unhinged reliance on cool ambient temperatures at least as far as pre global warming conditions go. 😛
    Have to agree as far as performance goes, here are topcpu’s…[Read more]

    Going with pretty basic, the igc has potential for some newer games on a tower with an i7 and possibly faster memory as demonstrated here:

    No-one mentioned overheating in the comments there, fortunately this is only an i5, the docs tabulate heat dissipation to make us all feel safe. 🙂
    And, news flush,…[Read more]

    You mean no updates after the OneUI 6 update? None here either, no doubt there will be a few installed on the A8 after Android 14, might be even lucky enough to get Android 18 when it comes out.
    Remember back in the early days of browsing you could hit Esc to stop images loading, there’s mention of Ublock Origin at the end of this thread – would…[Read more]

    The Oblivion desktop is kaput after being powered on after some months in storage. The lights and fans turn on, the DVD door works if operated, no BIOS beep or light on keyboard, nothing on screen either.
    The old Skyrim PC has turned out even worse, the last windows session on it gone into permanent frost. On reboot there was a service exception…[Read more]

    After the above inclusion, this is a sure fire eyeroller. 😛
    The purchase of an HP Elite SFF 600 G9 from here could be correctly construed as being diametrically opposed to any religion not espousing branded products.
    The reasons for it go like:

      • Cheap, free delivery, and good support.
      • Low power consumption.
      • Quiet operation
      • On board…

  • DeVaultSetter started the topic Veg in the forum Discussion 5 months, 1 week ago

    We’ve already mentioned such beauties as Californian geraniums, Century plant, Mexican petunias and Elephants ears, another favourite from South America is Spanish needle (Bideris Pilosa) which has a tendency to strike root in areas lacking or bereft of ground cover in liberal quantities. Venturing out in a field of these in seed usually ends up…[Read more]

    Grampsweb is the first port of call, possible on Synology, and possible in hosting, no plugin based WP integration as such. There does happen to be Tangled Web at Github from late ’21.
    For now, trying out the Narrated Website, the first blue was selecting the tar.gz in the export options, the backslashes turned borko in the tarball,…[Read more]

  • It has so happened upon accidental closure of a tab or window with unposted content in a topic. As sites now commonly use a listener on the control wherein page closure gets an “are you sure” popup, the event not being quite within the purview of WP cache handling, where to go?
    The same treatment applied for unposted text in the topic title is…[Read more]

  • Definitely checking out the next codpiece, and oh yeah, Roddy Piper was a true artist! 😛

    A first glimpse of the lead in Taxi Driver and Robert De Niro may not come to mind, from what we know of his later work. Scorcese wrung all the changes well from the shock ending revelations of the film, which,…[Read more]

    You may not have an ice cream cone in your back pocket at any time

    What if it’s just the wafer cone without the filling? Funny about Joe Biden’s ice cream Gaza ceasefire speech, if it was performed in Washington with a lollipop instead, illegal!

    Had a recent scare involving asbestos in mulch in schools, much of it is bonded though. When…[Read more]

  • DeVaultSetter replied to the topic Samsung Tablets in the forum Projects 5 months, 1 week ago

    Oh, given your phone is 10 years old, and Samsung having announced it now supports 7 upgrades for Galaxy devices, yours now qualifies for the update? Wow, some shock factor in there for the phone, and apart from the OS sucking the life out of the unit, everything looks fine?
    Admittedly, on 1080p, the tablet here has more grunt, and, compared to…[Read more]

    Libra or Clara? 😛
    Luckily the Mexican Petunias are susceptible to frost which keeps them away from here somewhat, there’s a handy Grow Me Instead for this locale, there’s sure to be similar your way.
    Surprised about the elephants ears taking hold, again, they are frost tender, so don’t get them in the wild in these here parts.
    Came across these…[Read more]

  • Oh, we get Tubi here too, never knew they had all those slashers, though the question remains as to whether my personality and charisma receives a 100% boost after watching them all. 😛
    The second series of Dark Winds was, at least as far as geography and plot went, more expansive than the first. The spooky swirling clouds were replaced in the…[Read more]

  • The the grid goes, it’s on battery alone, thus powered outlets are limited, when it occurs on cloudy days, apply extra frugality of the sake of the battery!
    Yep, haven’t attempted it yet, and from community feedback to current conversion tools, considerable intervention is still required.
    Copilot popped up on the Android, funny that, as the device…[Read more]

  • Paddy was asked why he was going the wrong way up a one way street:
    What’s wrong with it, I’m going one way aren’t I?”
    How about this for a Law & Order Opening:

    Back in the day they would release “Collector’s item” comic editions, usually compilations, best of’s, or reprints of #1s or notable artist or event editions. Believe it or not, there’s even an article about that, doesn’t mention value or prices, unsurprisingly. 😛

  • DeVaultSetter replied to the topic The TCG Thread in the forum Discussion 5 months, 3 weeks ago

    Does that mean that by the time a Maxx “C” is drawn, and the opponent has already summoned 6 monsters, you get to draw 6 cards while he draws none? Surely the nomination of the Maxx “C” card on the play of the “Sales Ban” should be illegal if you have already used it?
