😛 Considering the density of the atmosphere, it’s amazing one can hear anything at all! They also have the sound of a meteoroid striking the planet’s surface and breaking up, … to this ear not quite as expected – wonder how big it was?
Good to know, how many base stations are there?
No, hoping it’s just a glitcho with hibernate, repeat occurrences will not be savoured at all!
Sounds like something on the contacts, can be a bit of moisture, or even insects or spiders, over here the old Sherwood RX-5502 has a bit of leakage which causes a crackle every time the TRS cord is pulled. 😛
Why a light – nice if they are dimmable nightlights, yuck otherwise.
Remember posting this spoof at AL, it was on again yesterday. 🙂Only a minute this time, so just doing nothing makes it get better? The object cache is supposed to boost BP some, if this is the cost, the surefire way to troubleshoot were to inactivate BP before reading an incoming reply. Assume it safe to do (as with Cleantalk) when plugin settings are usually preserved.
Down to about 3-5 minutes now, the change used to be immediate- perhaps something else broke.
Enjoyed those, the American accents give the characters a new dimension, don’t think the other recreations were quite as good.
Weird that the reviews are that mixed, one mentioning a clunky plot – go fig! And the “not to be confused with” redirect Psyco Ripper the wrestler, the original Psicosis was born later, and very popular in US wrestling shows back in the day.
Not many old movies on replay free to air these days, however they are playing some of the original Law & Order shows. The original and best, the pithy plots and witty dialogues tower over the productions in the the other L & O spinoffs, cementing it in as an all time classic of that genre.
The FTA channels over here have to be taken over by the streaming services, as it looks more and more as if they are set for transitioning to become 24/7 shopping channels, all ~20 of them. Someone help us please. 😛As it was my impression some of gaming houses that ran Magic, The Gathering were run by a bunch of creeps, never got into them, although Jyhad is a scream. Nowadays, there seems to be a set of more definitive rules in Pokémon, good if there is a venue nearby to try them out, otherwise surf online.. For my benefit at least, here’s a video on the basics:
Lobsters of the world: Vibrate and gyrate in this strange garden of stars:
Sky have a nice little collection of space sounds from NASA:
🙂 While contemplating engagement in Godville, chanced upon a Random Axe of Kindness.
How do the VR base station work- is it just audio/visual or something else?
Nothing like a cool change, after a very dry year, we are also receiving some much needed rain.
Funny thing happened with hibernate resume, pressing escape out of the W11 lockscreen (which wants to be turned off) the screen looked like a still version of the sea in this Fata Morgana animation:
Hard reset required, and, talking of wonderful Windows, got this in the feed, of course an OEM version here, funnily enough no difference in price to the retail version, so to all intents and purposes it’s identical to the retail. Any difference with yours?Haven’t seen any of those, was the early one silent? Did any of those movies ever “do justice” to the book, as with Through the Looking Glass, a priceless masterpiece.
Did happen to see the original Piranha the other day, funny thing is, do now faintly recall seeing it many years ago. Nice one, with plenty of thrills, with respect to such the classification of Comedy Horror is somewhat misleading, Light Horror is a better fit. If you will, the subject and impact of the movie’s horror scenes are portrayed in a somewhat lighter vein.
The whys and wherefores of the satirical movie Bamboozled came out as somewhat … bamboozling, notably in ways the director and writers had not intended. Do like the ads though:
Nice. What’s it for?
We’ve been having some icky weather lately. It’s been about 65 – 70ish with extremely high humidity lately so the humidity inside is around 75% and has been 100% outside. Not fun! The next project around here for the handyman is to replace the weatherstripping. That should help! Due to the temperature range, running the air conditioner won’t really do much other than drive up the electric bill needlessly so it’s a mite uncomfortable here.
Yes, over here the A/C is an option of last resort. Else, in sultry weather it’s windows wide open with a brisk fan blowing throughout. The fan here has a loud creak only fixable by slicing open the smooth and shiny shielding, an action entailing permanent excision from the present décor. 😛
Oh, bugger, will repost. As being an issue, raised a request at WP if for no other reason than to put it out there!
A graveyard smash indeed- now it’s time for a holiday!
On the shiny new SSE machine now, so won’t get back to Baldur’s until April. Do remember a large number of quests popping up once the team has passed Wyrm’s Crossing though. 🙂
The support team for Smeg didn’t want the 100 mb video file created and edited with Clipchamp. So, the easiest thing to do was use Youtube filtering to get the thing down to just under 12mb, at the same resolution.
It’s shockingly bad!
Speedtest provide reasonable results for this connection, the upload speed is low according to typical DSLAM configuration. It took more than thirty minutes to upload that video to youtube, if only the upload speed was 1MBS or even half that – all done in under five minutes.We’re all going to be wafted up to the cloud(s), where the future promises a safe haven for our souls, thoughts and aspirations. leaving all earthly concerns, and hardware behind. 🙂
Meanwhile, after a kind lady asked me to re-install OneDrive, had absolutely tons of hours of fun with it, completely free of charge. That is, all charge of energy has been drained from this form, leaving a lifeless OneShell of OneNess in OneLimbo! 🙁Edit: The notifications dropdown on youtube used to have clipped text for the first words in the video description, they have now replaced it with “For you”. Even though it’s very nice of them to say that, it’s futile attempting to stave off the advancing notion that something has been (un)intentionally barfed. 😛
Nice, do declare the scourer/sponges here are well used, and at the same time not too hard on the nose. 🙂
Watch those sponges! There was someone on the radio today with something to say about carnivorous sponges. Here’s a refresher:
In the actual Windows boot, do they up the performance of the power plan until the core system is loaded? Because of the size of the hosts file, it’s taking a long time for the internet to come online after boot, hence the question.Did zoom help at all in the news clips, over here something like a 250% boost was required.
Funny thing with the Smeg Coffee maker (AUS version) today, the filtration now cuts out after around two cups in the 12 cup carafe, and will not resume when the machine is switched off and on again. The only time it will resume is when the unit is empties and refilled.
This also affects the descaling. A fascinating video of the process here where the filtration cuts out at about 1:35 to 1:40 in the video. Over to Smeg for this one. 🙂On the radio there was a very interesting show about ADHD, must confess some of my earlier days might have deviated somewhat from the neurotypical, taking byte sized chunks from OCD, DD and ADHD, well past all that now. The upshot from todays show was that you could never self diagnose with the three types ADHD, it has to be performed by a professional. The journalist from the show has quite a following in TikTok – here’s a short video on what she gets up to.
https://www.tiktok.com/@mattieunofficial/video/7109365234804034817?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pcShame came across as a little too disjointed, off-piste even, there was something missing in the character profile of the protagonist for it to work. But then again, as he is described by the other players as a bit of a weirdo, there’s the B-grade license immediately handed on a platter to the director. A fine film, if given a few extra edit passes. Exactly what content to snip and tweak were far beyond the capabilities of this unseasoned non-professional. 😛
Saw Poltergeist (from memory again for the third time), great to watch. What didn’t work was how or why the demonic “beast” which captured Carol Anne did not have anything to do with the restless bodies from the cemetery, at the end. Two seemingly unrelated supernatural phenomena, … or were they after all?
Of course, not only was the mirror flesh peeling face scene classic, it describes very well how I start up certain mornings. 😛
Oh, have some with power buttons in the PC graveyard underneath, there are old Logitech, Laser, and Sky keyboards all from the noughties I think. Do remember posting a piccy of the nice looking Sky at AL, these days images on Google are buried, did happen to surf into a nice bit of banter re keyboards wayback. 😛
The foil Will definitely help, but will also look rather awful. Partially settled the issue by turning the aerial on the radio to face the other way. 😛
Fun fact: The radio is much closer to the microwave, which performs a much better job of killing the conversation. 😛Btw, the APC software deposits this directory
APCPowerChuteConfigin C:\ (Root) containing a filecurrentprocess.xmlwith a bit of data including proc id. Why, don’t ask. 😛The buzzing from the sound chip is more related to a DPC latency thing, happens after playing something in a browser tab, and then switching out to another tab or application.
Because it happens only rarely, updating the driver may or may not necessarily be the fix. otherwise it’s turning off the AMD devices and disabling hardware acceleration.Oh, those messages are emitted during the running of the hibernation wakeup script, which gives more credo to the arguments of the antihibernationists. 🙂
As a matter of interest, it does take a rather long time for Windows to sort out network issues after the PC has been switched off for months, and strangely, the effects of any human involvement don’t amount to much. Edit: Apart from putting the issue out to hang. 😛Edit: Hmmm, the Realtek audio driver in the Windows Catalog is is an older version (6.0.9238.1) to the above, but the zip file (DRV_Audio_RTK_SZ_DTSC_W11_64_V6092381_20211115R.zip) must have come from somewhere like the ASUS ROGues.
Funny, the Windows Catalog has a newer version which hasn’t been included in WU yet, and an even newer one at ROGue’s, which links on to the protected content at My Digital Life. 😛 -
