Yeah, you didnāt know I was gone. Had a lightning induced brownout on the local power grid. Smoked my PCās power supply. At least thatās what I think went out. Pretty sure I can fix it, but for now Iām using a laptop that I only have by coincidence. Sometimes I factory restore them for a local pawnshop before resale. Good thing I had 3-4 to pick from. I hate windows 8 / 8.1 / 10
I was also running my transmitter off of a battery backup, hooked into a deepcycle marine battery, being charged by my carās alternator. Been a fun evening of jury rigging.
Hey there. Iām using mobile at the moment so sorry if this question is in a weird place. I just thought this would be the best place to ask.
Iām looking for a solution to my backup hard drive dilemma. You see, I have a 500GB ssd in my computer, so anything I donāt regularly use are on external hard drives (2 at home, one off site. I swap the off site one with my secondary one when it needs updating). The issue I have is when I swap my off site one, I always happen to forget a file or two. Is there an automated alternative to updating these things? Maybe a cloner or something? Iāve dug around a bit but all I can find is how to backup the PC. Iām open to better storage options if there are any. Any ideas?
I could do that, I didnāt realise it was an issue as mine opens at the latest.
However we would have to keep making new ones, so how does this work for you
Kinda works. My phone is twitchy while trying to load all that, and my giant fat fingers are way bigger than the little slider. I got it to go to 437. If I zoom till itās a usuable size, then it wants to side scroll.
Iām not a phone guy, desktop PC for me. But itās bearable when at work, Iāll just roll with it.
Speaking of PC.
Found a blown fuse in my power supply from the other night.
Replaced it, and was trying to check it on the bench to see if it was going to come back. As soon as I plugged it in, one of the large heat sinked ICs blew up with considerable force, a lot of arcing, and a general shitting of my pants as I was leaned over it at the time.
Iām not sure I even want to salvage parts out of it now.
I donāt have a āJump Toā, you may need to be logged in for that.
Partly for privacy, partly for my twitchy phone, I donāt log into anything I donāt have to. Sometimes it has a cost, but Iād rather that than abandon any semblance of keep my data to myself.
Yeah, I know. A hopeless lost cause, but Iām gonna fight the fight anyway.
Nope. I, by god, am going to make google work to get my data.
I also try my hardest to mess with the algorithms. Itās currently showing me senior citizen level ads, which means Iām messing it up just a lilā bit.
ah yes this is why heās starting at the topā¦ the site has no history of last read posts in this thread for himā¦ rough position to be in.
wow! how did you achieve that? tell me more!! any possibility of installing the vivokey app and using chip scan to log in to the forum with? should be pretty easy that way and not leave any important data on the phone.
I REALLY like that mindset! Iām usually surrounded by all those funny ābut I donāt have anything to hide since Iām not a criminal!ā-guys, what usually results in a little rant on my side and a little more distance to my person on their sideā¦ sigh
