I use autologin, because I don't want to login a second time after unlocking the drive encryption. You can flame me for it - I don't care. Problem is that I have to type my user password to use the browser because KWallet for some reason doesn't want to unlock. The KWallet password is the same as the user password and I use the plasma-login-manager package for logging in. If it's needed - I'm on wayland. Probably a dumb one but I remember trying to set this up some time ago with something from the wiki and it did not work. Thanks!

Hi, this will be a long one. My friend has begun experiencing issues with her nice PC that she has bought a while ago. I'm going to give you her story and some of my theories.

She reported that a while ago her family home had an electrical issue (she lives in that house), quoting "We went to the garage and saw some wires literally burning up in the electrical box" and that's when the issues started. She stared having alot of bsods, with the error code of **0x9F**. First I assumed that it's a driver issue or something, maybe a power issue or something with hardware __since her CPU LED is sometimes on even though the computer starts normally.__, but she also reports that sometimes this doesn't happen and the LED is off. Sometimes the some other LED is lit up, like the VGA one. But then, she took it to her local repair shop and they "ran some stress tests" and concluded that nothing is wrong. Also the gigabyte software for LED controll just doesnt seem to work for her. Thats why I am writing this, my theories all get voided due to some evidence that points otherwise. Here are some of my theories:

1. When the wire melting happened, the CPU got fried. That would explain the weird BSODs or the diagnostic LEDs. But that gets voided by the "we ran some tests and everything is fine" feedback from the repair shop.
2. Something is wrong with the wiring (the outlet). It's good to note that we live in a country which uses 240V. But wouldn't that cause an immediate shutdown due to some short circuit? Maybe the resistance fluxuates? Heck maybe even the votage or the PSU got somehow fried????
3. Something wrong with windows - again the repair shop voids that
4. Overheating - same as above

She now messaged me that when she turns the computer off, the display goes off but the computer still stays powered on.

Next, I'll provide a screenshot of the BSOD error from the control pannel, sorry but they are in polish, since we are polish, and also the hardware specification of the machine.

It seems that I cant upload here for some reason, so I'll try to post it in a comment to this post.

so i started playing star technology a week ago and I am barely approaching HV, mind you - i have a teammate. being real i experienced some sort of a curtural shock when i started playing, because my last modpack was stoneblock 4, which compared to star technology was very fast. i really like this slowness that gregtech forces on the player. it is tedious but the feeling of reward when i finally get something working is very cool. what are yall's experiences with gregtech? id also like to know how different is star technology than the legendary gtnh? is the difficulty spike very big or manageable? can i maybe get some advice?

I bought some, and I tried to brew it with my gaiwan, but it came out disappointing. I think that I was brewing it wrongly so I am asking you guys for help. How do I brew it in a gaiwan? How hot should be the water, how much tea should I used and what is the steep time? I am asking, because I can't find any credible tutorials. Thanks!

What do I do? I can't do a fast union like in AOH2, and one of prussia russia or austria really want to make me their vasal. No idea.
