I manage several computers, and every time I set up a new one I go through the same motions. Install w10, disable a bunch of shit, add the same list of programs, delete the same default apps, setup Firefox how I want it, run through Oosu, disable several services, and add some registry keys....

I have an B550 Aorus Pro AC motherboard with a Ryzen 5800X CPU. The first PCIE slot has my RTX 3080 GPU in it and both of the M.2 slots have drives in them. The second M.2 slot disables the second PCIE slot, it is either one or the other. That leaves the last PCIE slot, which according to the manual runs in x2 through the south...

A family member of mine in Germany is looking for a laptop in the 100-200€ price range. It would be okay to buy used and it shouldn’t be one of those modern Celeron laptops. It should still have a fairly slim design and a processor at least good enough to run Minecraft at low settings with ~30fps on Linux. Is this even a...

My question is as follows: When I click a link on the main page, instead of opening a new tab in Firefox, it always takes me to the linked page in the same tab. I’ve tried changing settings in about:config, tried two different Firefox extensions to modify link behavior, but that resulted in a few unwanted events. I know I can...

My profile currently says I have 4 posts (this will be number five) and three comments. That’s what is says right under my username on my profile page. But below that, there’s an option to view “Overview”, “Posts”, “Comments” and “Saved”. “Overview” shows two of my posts and one comment. “Posts” shows...

I’m currently using BackInTime and TimeShift to create local backups of my system and personal data. I configured both to keep 7 daily, 4 weekly and 6 monthly backups. I use this setup on my Desktop-PC as well as on my laptop....

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...

I’m looking for potential Lemmy/Kbin communities where people can ask for suggestions for data sources. There’s “datahoarders” but that’s more technical how-to’s of the act of hoarding (I think)....

So, I have an older-ish (last 5 years I think) TV that before now, l’ve had plugged into my computer, and it sits near my bed for media streaming and the such....

So, I have this 12V LED Strip (not RGB) and I want to power it using my PCs power supply. I also have an old case fan with this Molex connector on the back, which should give access to 12V according to the pinout....

The "expand here"s are working perfectly for me....

Since there’s no proper JBL community on Lemmy, figured I would post here....

For whatever reason about a week ago, the Jerboa app stopped opening links. It used to open up in Chrome, but now it just opens Chrome to the last page I was on and doesn’t load the link....

As the title suggests, I’ve got an old 500gb SSD running my main OS on my desktop, and I just purchased a 2tb m2 drive and want to migrate over without a big headache....

circa 2019 gaming laptop...

After registering I should get a verification email. This one never comes. And because this verification email never comes, I can’t sign in. When trying to register again I get a message telling me that my email is already in use. When choosing “forgot my password” I never get the password reset email. I can’t ask the...

I recently bought the Sonnet Breakaway Box 750ex for my laptop. Some of the time when I plug it in, the eGPU actually turns on and works properly but most of the time, the PSU and board make faint clicking sounds (In the video below, I plugged in a louder 300W PSU to record the clicking. Both PSUs work ftr). I know that PSU...

The reason I’m asking this is the company I work for develops an application which has a barcode reader functionality. The device we develop these softwares for has a very limited resolution camera (2MP). Now they want me to set a benchmark for the maximum length barcode pattern which is scannable. So what I’m trying to do...

I used the Danish keyboard layout(win11) for both italian and Danish, because Italian needs àèéìòù and that language setting allowed me to type those. when I pressed the key next to backspace it waited until I pressed a vowel and it would write the vowel with the accent. if you pressed it twice it would write two lone...

So I own a Lenovo legion 5i laptop and I installed a brand new mushkin Vortex 2tb NVME SSD last year. But it has gone into read only about 30 times since I got it but smart reports 0 errors. I reboot my machine and boom fixed it it takes place in windows and in Linux often in the middle of my work so I can’t save again. I did...
