    The idea that people are making fake greentext screen shots is both puzzling and embarrassing. If you have the idea, just post it as a normal comment somewhere else—forging 4Chan screens is the path of madness.

      Is a green text actually a 4chan screen?

      Or is it a distinct meme template to tell stories in ab engaging way that just happened to originate on 4chan?

      Especially when the content literally never existed on 4chan, it looks like it but isnt.

      I ask this with some rhetoric. We did click the content. Would it have been equally enjoyable as a twitter post: “after 6 years of living in the dark i discovered my light is dimmable, fuck me”?

      you’re right… it is fake, and yet it is true. so is it true or is it fake? and if it’s fake, is it a less or more genuine greentext?

      But here’s the real question: did OP convert a TIFU to greentext themselves, or did they use AI?

      Massively depends on the system.

      if you get a F series CPU with no igpu then you will likely get no output.

      one time i was testing something with the monitor in the motherboard, which worked fine, and then i put the gpu in the motherboard but forgot to plug the monitor in the gpu, and it showed a black screen.

      there might be systems where you can plug both a gpu and the igpu into the monitor and it’ll use one for most things and the other for games and stuff (i dont remember what that is called), but i have only ever seen that in laptops so idk

  Once you get used to proper bias lighting, suddenly overhead lamps become insufferable. I don’t know how people do it.

  • umbrella@lemmy.ml ⁨16⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    you can make things feel much comfier with a well positioned cheap lamp

  • festnt@sh.itjust.works ⁨16⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    what’s bias lighting? i’ve never heard of it and if it works as a complete replacement to overhead lamps, i don’t think looking it up showed me the right thing

    source

    • Psythik@lemm.ee ⁨16⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Lights that you place behind things, like your bookshelf, TV/monitor, bedframe, etc. It’s so much more cozy and inviting compared to direct lighting. Like the other person said, a simple cheap lamp works wonders.

  My grandmother gifted me their old TV back in the 2000s because it was only showing black and white.

  They had a mechanic look at it who said it was broken

  Their was a button to change the saturation to get the TV back to show colours

    I know someone who bought a new laptop and complained that the display broke after only a couple weeks

    It only showed a super dim display and the viewing angle sucked

    I pressed the fancy new “privacy screen” button and it “worked flawlessly” again

    Ha. I had a coworker gift me a high end amp because the volume was all crackly. Opened it up sprayed electronic cleaner on the volume rheostat thingy and gave it a few back and forth turns. Perfect sound. I offered it back but he’d already purchased a new one. :/

    • toddestan@lemm.ee ⁨15⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I had something similar, except it was a blown fuse.

      Granted, the fuse was soldered in place and you had to take it apart to get to it. But once it was replaced it worked perfectly. No idea why the fuse blew either, unless it was just defective.

  Human Moment™. One of my former professors in Uni, the one I respected the most because she was one of the wisest and most perceptive people I’d met at that point, confided in us that it took her however many years since their introduction to realise that the small light on some wall-mounted light switches was meant as a guidance light if it’s pitch black.

  Pro tip: Modern American fans are required to have a voltage limiter chip to dial down the lights. They fail. Lots. If your fan lights don’t work, buzz, hum, whatever, take it down and cut the little fucker out, wire back together with wire nuts.

  I’ve replaced two crappy fans with really nice units I found in the trash. 100 how-to’s on YT.

• lightnsfw@reddthat.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  I have one of those fans. It only has a remote, no pull chains. I fucking hate that thing as much as I have ever hated anything in my life. It’s so shitty. You would think having buttons would make it easier to use than a pull chain but they somehow made it even worse. Both the light and fan use the same Up and Down arrows to change the setting but there’s a delay of a second or two between hitting the button and the fan actually changing (if it changes at all). There’s also no indicator of which setting you’re on currently (which is the only annoying part about pull chains). Also couldn’t get it to switch directions for winter even after spending probably an hour on their site and Youtube looking at documentation and trying shit.

  • Waraugh@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    My remote controlled fan sounds like yours except it still has a physical switch on the side of the housing to change direction. I still hate the fan but thought I would share just in case you never checked.

      Yea that was the first thing I looked for but this one doesn’t have it. I’m like 90% sure I have the correct instructions to do it but it just does not work. These things are shit and whoever designed this should be ashamed of themselves.
