3 days agoThat’s a fair point. Season 9 was certainly a vibe I can’t quite find the words for.

Jerry purposely drugging his girlfriend so he could play with her toys was pretty shitty AND horrible.
You mentioned a buzzing in another reply. That sounds like a grounding issue to me. Any chance you blew something under the board that is causing a short? At this point it would be wise to do a full tear down.
I’m almost at my train stop, so one final question before disappearing for the day: when resocketing the CPU did you put it in correctly and was there damage when you removed it initially?
Is the power switch on the PSU flipped on? Are the front panel wires seated in the right places on the motherboard?
Those are the two that get me when reassembling. I used to have an asrock 320m that had absolutely no grip on the front panel wires and it was easy to unseat one when blowing air into the case.
Tbh I’m not a web person (more of a backend person) and don’t know the recommended practices.

Tests? Pfffft. I am the test.

32·3 months agoRight now we have no other solutions/fixes. You may be able to get Invidious working on residential IP addresses (like at home) but on datacenter IP addresses Invidious won’t work anymore.
This might explain why mine has been reliable even though it hasn’t been updated in months. I guess add me to the list of confirmations that it works on residential connections.

Oh I didn’t even think about that. It would explain so much.
Saw it with my partner on Friday.
My review:
There was so much fan service that I thought it was a bad Tumblr fanfic and wish I had pirated it.
Fan service spoilers, general complaints, not in order
- Andy the android. Seriously? How lazy.
- Rook? Ash? Rook in Dutch is “smoke”, give me a break! Also that CG face was abysmal! I’ve seen better deepfake videos.
- How the hell does the Company find Nostromo in the middle of space after it blew up in all directions at an unknown location? Stuff keeps moving outward in space and space is infinite… To even figure out where it would be their physicists would have had to pinpoint the original site of the explosion, where the explosion took place on the ship, how much outward force the explosion exerted on the ship, and the exact date and time of the explosion. In the middle of fucking space.
- The mouse/rat giving “birth” was a terrible callback to 3 with the dog or cow, depending on the cut.
- Trying to blow the Xeno out of a hole in glass… C’mon!
- Humanoid birth (Alien 4) that looks like an Engineer (Prometheus), coming out of a human…
- Xeno breathing down Rain’s neck
- Andy sounding like David when inserting the module
- Andy and Rook continuing the terrible trope that every single android has referred to it as “the perfect organism”
- Face huggers swimming, a bad callback to 4
- Do NOT get me started on how convenient it was that the ship flew into the cargo bay when the pilot lost control
- The cryosleep fluid makes no sense and retcons 2. If Ripley was out for as long as she was between 1 and 2, then how many canisters were on her EEV?!?! What about between 2 and 3?!
- Rain stepping out of the lift with the gun was a shot for shot remake of 2
- Andy crying when being left behind, a callback to David, unless hes one of the original David models with a new skin? Lazy writing either way
- Stay away from her… BITCH 🤮
- The acid kill retcons 4. One drop goes completely through the guy’s leg, while in 4 it only burns the skin slightly.
- The scene where Rain blew away the Xenos when gravity was off was a callback to 2 with the turrets in the tunnel, down to having several rounds left after they’re all gone
- Rain entering the mission in the ship’s log at the end. Does she even have any formal training there?
- Since when are planetary rings solid? And since when does a vessel the size of a large city turn into shredded cheese when scraping against a bunch of space ice?
- Flashing runway lights, a direct callback to all of the other ones
hidden content
There’s more but these are enough to get the point across. I think it would have been a better film if it tried to be its own film and not reference every single iconic scene from the previous installations. At least they kept the technology and set painting consistent this time, unlike Prometheus…
The answer has got to be
helix;)
Piggybacking onto this, MenuLibre also works and the “hide from menus” setting does exactly that if a GUI is preferable. I used it to hide a bunch of VSTs a while back.
Forking is indeed the way forward when Mozilla loses its way a little more. For myself, I switched to Librewolf about 6 months ago, along with replacing Thunderbird with Betterbird after using it since the Phoenix days.
I cannot remember what prompted the move to Librewolf, it may have been the AI stuff they were pushing at the time, or possibly the update that forced the tabs into my titlebar without having to go into about:config to fix it. Or the fact that Firefox was constantly pushing me to sign up for an account. There were quite a few gripes that added up over time lol
Betterbird restored some removed things I liked pre-supernova as well as a native systray icon under Linux and that was enough motivation to make the switch.
It is time for a new browser to enter the market. Either Ladybird or something built with Servo seems likely.
I’ve got some bad news for you. Mozilla bought an ad company.
33·5 months agoHave you looked at Duplicati? I use it and find it dead simple and reliable (I did a full recovery from a total data loss last year).
3·5 months agoIn the meantime, its possible to use qjackctl to create a connection from input to the VST before it goes to the easyeffects sink. Its a bit kludgy but it should work well enough.
And their refusal to listen to what the fans actually want.
And frivolous patent lawsuits on mechanics that they don’t use themselves. Or patents they made after said prior art came out.
And sending their lawyers after streamers and content creators.
And killing fan games that improve on their failures.
And artificial digital scarcity.
Their arrogance will be their downfall.
