I have a few external hard drives that are connected over USB for backup storage. I power them down when not in use because it unnecessarily uses power and adds wear to the drives....
I flashed a retro pie installer onto my SD card, but it had important files I can’t replace on it, now it’s FAT and the only FAT formats Windows will read is FAT32 and exFAT, I have recuva but I am scared that if I reformat the card I will lose all evidence of the files existing which = BAD
I’ve just bought a Samsung T7 Shield SSD and the connection is fairly loose. I’ve seen people complaining about theirs being very loose to the point where it would just get disconnected with normal movements. In my case it is not as severe, as regularly it doesn’t seem to come off and, for example, when connected to my...
This is an expansion of a post i made previously, but apparently dead keys literally do not work at all anymore. I had used msklc to get a dead key to work again, it worked once but it was a buggy mess, i rebooted, now the dead key doesn’t work again, and neither do any more dead keys i attempted to create. It seems dead keys...
Hey all, just recently treated myself to a new computer build after ~3 years, and I’ve been having nothing but trouble with USB dropouts. Had I done more research prior, I would have known about this issue that seems to have been prevalent since the AM4 days. Thing is, I’ve had great success with my prior build (AM4, Ryzen 7...
Hi all I recently moved both my email domains to a Tutanota account and so far I’m mostly happy with their services. I now hit the first obstacle, which is, I’m starting my own woocommerce store and to get emails from the website, through [email protected], I need to setup an SMTP server which Tutanota obviously...
Is there any easy way to download all Shazam tags over the years? Preferably in .flac? I see links to apple music in Shazam and also an option to export my “tag list” as an excel type file. Has anyone done this before? If so, please let me know if there is a more streamlined way of doing this rather than searching and...
Hey, so I had recently gotten my laptop back from a repair shop after the frame for the screen came loose, and I just got it back today and the USB port isn’t working properly. I try to use my mouse and it doesn’t work, I got an older mouse and used it and it doesn’t work, but when I try charging my phone from the USB...
I’ve noticed in the past few months a new update has made it so that when I alt-tab or click/focus on one of the applications I have open on a separate monitor, the initial program will be greated as a background process and get capped to 30 fps. This usually isn’t a problem, but for Destiny 2 it occasionally causes...
I recently bought a SSDPE2KX080T851 (NVMe U.2) drive to install in my Asus Z690-A i7 12700k PC. I bought a M.2 to U.2 adapter since my motherboard doesn’t have native U.2. When I install this into my motherboard Windows throws out BSOD for Kernel Security Check Fail....
Let’s suppose I want to browse lemmy.ml or lemmy.world. This would be similar to viewing the website lemmy.ml through a browser where various communities are visible....
First post on these alternative sites so forgive any mistakes. My external hard drive (a small travel one) was enclosed in a padded hard-shell case like this one but I’m still worried. When I went on vacation, I had the hard drive in a bag that I was dragging down the (carpeted) stairs. I don’t know if the protective case...
More specifically voyager (aka wefwef). It seems to be based on chrome for it’s backbone but is it possible to get it to use kiwi or something to use my extensions and ad blocking? News articles are becoming unreadable on some sites as they’re 75% ad space.
Lately my PC has been freezing sporadically. Not freezing completely, as I can still move my mouse, videos or music continue playing and window animations still function, but whenever I try to open a new page or folder it doesn’t do anything. Sometimes it last for 5 seconds, sometimes for 5 minutes. Then all the actions I...
