I’ve been dreading booting back into Windows recently because I upgraded my motherboard/CPU and know they are going to make me buy another license.

Windows tends to be better at this these days. If this does happen though, go through the activation process and start the troubleshooter. There’s an option there to transfer the licence from another machine. You should be able to transfer it from the same machine if Windows thinks it’s a new one.

This assumes that it’s the same version of Windows, but in your case it shouldn’t be changing 👍

I’ve genuinely seen a post asking for help because DISM wouldn’t run, where the recommended answer was to run DISM 🙈

I mean, if you were feeling particularly bored and mischievous, it wouldn’t be too difficult to make a few fake accounts and post questions asking about why ‘this traitor is ripping off Trump’ 🤷🏻‍♂️

All the test strips I’ve ever used hold the blood at the opposite end to the machine. The blood is intentionally kept away and on something that can easily be disposed of.

As far as I can tell, the bulk of the testing strip is a conductor to take a signal from the end with the blood to the tester, which makes it seem like there’s some sort of reaction on the blood end.

Fair enough. I’m usually using my computer when I remember that I should have done something on my server a few days before 🙈

Just to check, can’t you remote into it instead? I use NoMachine, but there are lots of alternatives that might suit you better 🙂

Devices that you already own (PCs, smartphones, tablets, Fire TV devices, and smart TVs) can become your gaming devices, and Luna also supports peripherals that you already own, such as Xbox One and PlayStation 4 controllers, and mouse + keyboard.

This is the part that interests me the most. I’ve got a handful of controllers that I’ve tried using with my phone in the past with not much luck. If they work with Luna, I’ve instantly got a decent library of games to play anywhere :)

Just to note, this doesn’t apply to the UK. Our trains are generally useless and expensive.

That being said, I hate the formatting of most forums. Reddit and Lemmy’s comment nesting is excellent. It’s very easy to follow conversations.

You could set that up on a lot of forums, you just had to select threaded view in the settings 👍

Depending on what you’re doing, Krita is worth a look. I gave it a go for cropping and lightly editing some photos recently, and then tried their version of the clone stamp tool. It’s hidden under the brushes presets, but worked better than the Photoshop tool 👍

Emojis evolved from the smileys we had in the late 90s, which were mostly yellow, but could be in various colours, like red for the angry face. Those smileys evolved from the text versions like these :) or :D

They’re supposed to be better at preventing RSI

In my defence it’s late at night here 🙈

While I agree with you, if OP is spending money on a remote, they may as well try to find an original remote. They’re unlikely to be expensive, and will have all the correct buttons :)

It depends on the server. Mine is an old Haswell based system, and uses more than 2 watts :)

Thanks both, I’ll have a look into it :)

Sorry for the slow reply, I’ve been away :)

I’ll have a look into that then, thanks :)

Sorry for the slow reply, I’ve been away :)

I want to avoid Syncthing, as a few of the people on the festival committee are not great with technology. I would have to set it up for them, and fix any problems that come up.

Sorry for the slow reply, I’ve been away :)

That looks interesting, thanks :)
