  • Fare thee well, denoiser2022. Original still has reflections though more subtle and it still preserves color so…….. Yeah gonna run with that setup like

  • Then the laptop struggles

    So I bricked my X250 I might start using as a dedicated typing machine lol
    but I think it’s fixed, smh my head

    I am itching to get new batteries for this and the X230T. But also the keyboard on this X250 seems too gummy or at least a bit gummy in a few keys. Maybe I’m still getting used to it, I still enjoy typing on it and it’s fun feeling my fingers dance around the keyboard.

    Man, I wish I could use the mechanical keyboard with the other desktop computer I have, because it’d be so much better. But also privacy, and the wrist pain because of the angle and needing a wrist rest for my poor tiny thin wrists sigh

    I wonder if the keyboard can be improved from what it currently is at the moment….

  • So I’m just going to grouse over my PC struggles over the weekend

    So I’m just going to preface this with: what a fucking struggle that was?? It’s great because HDR was working perfectly fine but I GUESS NOT??? Fam freaked out over HDR and I panicked because I thought the GPU was finally giving up the ghost or that the TV was giving up instead

    turns out it could have been the cables as I switched cables and then plugged my pc directly into the TV instead of going through the AVR. then it really may have been a TV problem because it lost ethernet connection at the same time, like the port was just dead. and the poor thing was just like, struggling to work but no graphics glitches that fam and I noticed which made me worry about the state of the GPU

    but it might be a pc problem because even iGPU had some weird hiccups??? but it was worst when I tried to do HDR on my GPU,,, had to rollback drivers out of panic, then saw on reddit there was something about deleting old color profiles and it seemed to work LOL and I realized I never set an SDR profile only an HDR one…. at the same time I decided to stream to my phone so if the stream glitched out while switching to HDR it’d be the GPU for sure.

    nah man now it works. baby works. it’s okay though, I ended up swapping my PSU for one that can actually handle the load lmaooooooooooo. poor baby. and the CPU and GPU were burning anyway because the dust filter was saturated. and I decided to replace the thermal paste anyway. so lol. what a time. baby works. my UPS hasn’t gone off the rails because somehow my max total usage + TV +AVR is ~850W. that was a fun monday afternoon lol. just not being able to do things. cursed pcs. i hate pcs
