Thanks for everything, @cobito, because the whole thing looks great. And also inviting the most "classic" users of hardlimit to use other applications of the Hardlimit ecosystem. I am very active on Mastodon, where I have been for 4 years among other instances and that of Hardlimit, and I usually toote (this is what tweeting on Twitter is called) news, my live streams, links, opinions very off the cuff, etc... In short, LONG LIVE HARDLIMIT!

Where can I buy this shirt?

@cobito said in Tempest drivers positive for bad reputation.:

Another thing is that they were caught doing the fool and either the source or the certificate they use are tainted.

There I was, I'm not used to brands releasing unsigned drivers, maybe it could be because it's a "smaller" brand.
But the case is that software that comes out with a new version unsigned, Norton usually says there is potential risk because it is "unknown" and "still little used" but if the source has good precedents it allows you to decide.
This one however, Norton already marks the portal as "doubtful" and also directly deletes the file during installation, despite having scanned it with a negative result.

In short, apart from the negative note for publishing unsigned drivers without any info (nor version), it also seems rather that their reputation is below average.

Salu2.

PD:
It turns out I had a previous version saved, lucky me.

You're absolutely right Cobito... these are things I will never understand, although it's a matter of reputation.

The discover content section has received an update that has reduced the waiting time by an order of magnitude.

In addition, you can now listen to MIDIs and mods directly from the lists without having to access the file. On the other hand, animated gifs are also displayed in the lists without having to click on them.

The full screen video theme is still being investigated.

@cobito hardlimit forever
I'm glad that hardlimit is increasing in visits and collaborations.
And that the "old guard" continues to be here, it seems like a lie how time passes...
More than one was studying when he entered this great house and now he will even have grandchildren .

Account created.

I also had a plasma that I wasn't ashamed of, one of those early ones that came out of the white label that could be bought for 1000 euros, it broke recently with twenty-something, and even though the cat got tired of urinating on the screen and even made a subtle border that doesn't go away.
It worked so well that I didn't want to change it, and recently I was told that they changed it because it had already fallen (I'm not there anymore) but I don't know if it was an excuse because things were already good

The mobiles have been passed down to family and things like that, I only keep the second to last one that's being used as a router, and my first smartphone (galaxy 1) that now I look at and it seems like a toy bought at the kiosk for a kid jjj

My experience (community)
I used a cheap office chair for about 15 years, I changed the wheels and little else, the truth is that it needed to be reupholstered again (it was disgusting) but out of laziness I bought a newskill kitsune.
It is comfortable and adjustable, it comes with a lumbar cushion and a neck cushion.
Cons, for my taste the lumbar is small and the neck one is too big.
It is made of simple faux leather and the joint of the front seams of the backrest have been marked (peeled) by sticking it to the cover of my desk.
Otherwise it is almost perfect.
It costs about 140 on Amazon.
I use it all weekends for 3 hours in a row and then another 3 hours after lunch.
I have no "temperature" problem in summer or winter, I don't have air conditioning.
At work the technical office people (10 hours a day) use Ikea chairs with mesh backrests.
They are ugly ugly.
But none of them complain about comfort issues.
What I do dislike and a lot about both (I had to assemble them all) is the anchoring of the pneumatic piston at the bottom (with the spider of the legs) which is by simple gravity, it doesn't have fixing screws.
And that must generate play in the long run.

Great work from you, @cobito and let's see if we can all contribute our bit to generate more traffic and activity. I will certainly apply it to myself first, we'll see if I can fulfill it. Although the important thing is that this continues and we are all at home.

Best regards and Happy New Year!!

@cobito What a big hit you take. Thanks for keeping order in this den

Nothing is impossible with electricity, but the good thing about having a good power supply is that it is much more difficult for another component to break other than the power supply itself. Even if a spark occurs or a capacitor bursts, which leaves everything in a state where "surely the DVD reader has burned out", it may not have broken anything else.

Of course, there is always the possibility that if you had the PC in an area with humidity, in addition to the power supply, the motherboard may have been damaged, but the best thing to do is to try with a power supply that works and is of sufficient power.
The truth is that 10 years is quite a long time, although many power supplies would like to last that long. Some do not last even two years... of course, usually the bad ones for 15-20€. That said, keep in mind that nothing is eternal and the power supply suffers wear and tear and reaches a point where it says enough is enough.

Greetings!!

Edit: sorry for the reflote...I didn't look at the date jajaja

Thanks for your contribution. In the end, I bought the ROG Strix XG27AQ
The thing is that buying this monitor with my PC, I could have saved myself the money. Although of course it looks good. I don't make the most of it. But this is another one of my stubbornness in life.
There's more to learn.....

Well, but maybe in time you'll get more out of it when you upgrade your PC, you never know. How much did it cost you?, if it's not indiscreet to ask.

Best regards.

The price at that time was 600 euros, now it costs less. It was a whim. I don't make that kind of expensive purchases. I haven't bought anything for months after that

The maintenance is now complete. You can now live-stream from the video section.

@kynes said in Happy 2021!!!:

Late but still want to congratulate you all

I can barely get in because for almost four months I have a mini-me that consumes all my time, but I like to keep reading you. Take care of yourselves.

Congratulations @kynes!!
I hope you are well, enjoy your paternity friend, a hug

@Yorus Good news about your new blog! I'm just analyzing a 133MHz Pentium MMX right now. I'll see if I have it ready by the end of the month.

Well, one thing I was thinking about was creating a Telegram channel with magazines that weren't easily accessible, but that would overlap with the section of @cobito, so I'll keep passing material to HardLimit and what I'll do in the group and Twitter is promote it a little.

Don't worry about overlapping. The more duplicated these things are, the better. Everything you have that you want to share in the museum is welcome.

I always have doubts about the rights to the magazines and the fact that someone has done preservation work and has a site dedicated to it, in which case it might be better to link to them unless they somehow make it clear that they don't mind.

I don't remember where I made that exact inquiry, but that's where the idea for the VIP museum (for magazines and emulations) came from. I don't really think there's anything wrong with publishing old magazines when there's no profit motive. You can always leave a way for anyone to communicate easily to request that the material be removed.

Well, to break the ice, I've made this one that's not as personalized, but okay:

More than a signature, it's a result image (for sharing results in forums and such) because as a signature, it doesn't fit.

From now on, it's also possible to include a ranking section with the result's position (like the one in the image).

This results table is available in the central for all validations.

Those are the doubts I have as well, although I will continue to investigate. In my case, the most suitable computer is an i5-3570s of 65w and a GTX 750ti. According to the program itself, the micro gives me about 2410 points per day and the graphics 23629.

The 49:55 minute of this video is one of my favorite moments:

Good luck with this new journey and let's see if Hardlimit gets a new boost.

For my part, I promise nothing, if anything, to resume the blog that I have stopped, mainly because I never have clear what orientation to give it. Besides, I am in a period where I have given priority to other things, some for pleasure and others by obligation, but I hope to have more time after the summer and resume the blog and another small personal project.
