I still need to fix the stupid space bar rattle.

Also a lefty so my hands gravitate to the left when I need a numpad LUL

Yeah I still wouldn't buy a southpaw nowadays cuz I truly think numpads are overrated but people mentally stuck on them should buy a southpaw

Got a tmr/mechanical hybrid board showing up this week

#

oh yeah, have you went into the rabbit hole of building them yourself ? @pliant karma

pliant karma
#

In the past yea

#

Keychron V1 barebones

#

Akko Cilantros and a mystery keycap set my friend bought me on my birthday.

#

By building i mean building

pliant karma
#

oh nah not yet

#

like pcb design and such

#

PauseChamp my wallet says no to that atm

#

in the future hell yea

It really is way way cheaper than new keebs

Eww
Numpads should always be on the correct side of the keyboard

I like numpads but many laptops with numpads have a weirdly offset trackpad and it just SUCKS

rough socket
#

This is the correct side

gleaming cove

#

You do know that you use your keyboard with your left hand too ?

gleaming cove
rough socket
#

because you haven't seen anyone use a southpaw keyboard

#

Obviously no one would use their left hand with a numpad placed to the right

if i dont have a usb, would a "fake usb" still work the same

#

like if i make a partition in one of my drives or whatever its called

chkdsk E: /f /r

I put E here since it seems like your Windows files are on your E drive. Use C if they're actually on C.

Does anyone know if subnautica 2 supports hdr ?

#

and i didnt know what the issue was and i just recently started trying to fix it

#

then it said my c drive was messed up and i tried to repair it with chkdsk and that happened lol

gleaming cove
#

So is your windows installation in the C drive or E drive?

minor vale
#

im actually not sure why it says E drive lol

#

i made the E drive like 3 days ago for a BIOS update

obsidian horizon
#

are you guys fimiliar with any apps that saves any text or picture i copy to clipboard to a selected file or folder?

gleaming cove
# minor vale i made the E drive like 3 days ago for a BIOS update

well.. something has gone wrong while doing that
I saw your post in #1027757333117415424 and you should probably add all of these things as a message. Somewhere while doing all of that, Windows got messed up.

Whatever you have done to your PC over the past few days that relates to this, put that as a message adn someone that knows more about this might be able to help you out.

obsidian horizon
#

auto sorting using ai will be more helpful but i dont think there might be an app for that

minor vale
#

i dont think its related at all

#

these issues were wayyyy before i made the E drive

gleaming cove
minor vale
#

yes

#

constant pc crashes and stuff

gleaming cove
# minor vale yes

huh
your installation is probably heavily corrupted, or there's a genuine hardware issue (but that still doesnt explain the E:/Windows/System32 folder being used to store the log file)

Using a USB to reinstall the OS is your best bet of ruling out any OS related issues.

obsidian horizon
#

windows

#

remember its windows

minor vale
#

damn, i have zero bucks and no USB

obsidian horizon
#

it will do random stuff all the time

minor vale

maybe it was from a power outage or something

#

unfortunately i cant restart now, since im running a disk check on my bigger drive

#

unless theres a way to stop that safely

gleaming cove
# minor vale unless theres a way to stop that safely

That's fine
Wait till that's over and then tell what happens when you restart over at #1027757333117415424 in your post

It's probably related to your boot drive and not the other drives. Anyways, just mention what's happening and it should be fine. Worst case, reinstallation. Best case, some easy commands help fix it.

minor vale
#

will do

#

its so annoying that it says its gonna take a whole hour and a half longer

#

honestly im wondering if i should just reinstall windows anyway it might be the best option

gleaming cove

#

unfortunately i didnt realize that before running the command 💔

theres not anything like SUPER important on there just stuff thatd be mildly inconvenient to lose

yeah honestly ill just stop it

definitely, so long as they have enough evidence, depends on whats in the notebook i would assume.

He tried to send a message. I hope this would lead to some changes in the insurance industry but it probably won't. He's going to get the consequences of his actions now.

Scary how they caught him right away. Seems like the movies where you can get away from surveillance is fiction nowadays.

Didn't Tesla use to upgrade last gen hardware for free?

it can still only do 150w between them both

winged spire

Most people don’t

#

<14%

#

They will upgrade people to ai4 or ai5 if that’s out by then, free for people that bought FSD outright and paid for people that didn’t

vapid smelt
winged spire
#

It’s an extra $8k to pay outright

#

I pay 99$ a month

#

Kinda stupid to buy it outright ngl, 7.5 years to make it equal

#

What level of lane assist cruise control do you get if you don't pay

winged spire
#

Lane centering and TACC

#

Standard in most 2026 cars, but it was a big benefit at the time

#

So like on the interstate you don’t really have to touch anything

#

Just take the right exit manually and whatnot

#

Cant wait to get v14

vapid smelt
#

Do all new Tesla's come with the hardware needed for fsd, even if you didn't pay for the package?

winged spire
#

Yeah

#

Been that way for a long time… 2017 or so?

#

Can’t buy it outright anymore either

#

They canceled that this year

#

Subscribing is the only option unless your model of car COMES with FSD

#

Like the model S X and cybertruck

#

At the end of the day you aren’t paying for the hardeare to run FSD, you’re paying for the continual billions of dollars it cost to develop the software

winged spire
#

I mean

That’s kinda how it is lol

#

Microsoft is charging people to continue using windows 10

#

The ideal thing would let people buy a software version, then make them pay if they want to upgrade to the newest version. But with self driving every update is safer than the last one

#

So they can’t really let people continue driving the older, worse version

winged spire
#

It’s like paying for photoshop, if using an old ps version was more dangerous

#

I doubt the NHTSB would even let them do that

#

they made Tesla remove the ability to close windows from the app on legacy model S and X because there was no pinch sensor lol

I don't to, doesn't make someone some sort of serial killer
A coal power plant is so absurdly worse it's not even comparable
Or the whole concept of personal cars and americans not understanding the ideas of trains, subways, bus and dare I say walking and cycling is even more insane to me

So yeah, one company/family that owns a jet is nothing in the big scheme of things, though it's not great I guess

Don't use chatgpt or other AIs as a source of truth

Amazon/uber eats/whatever delivery ? Sure

We improved our thermal insulation to improve our energy consumption
We also try to buy most of our food locally from smaller farmers/distributors

theyd keep the patent so they can keep selling the medicine cheap
