I've been trying to get arch Linux working on my gaming rig for a while now. Windows is installed on one SSD and the other for Linux. Whenever I try to enroll keys that I created using sbctl, it says "Your system is not in Setup mode! Please reboot your machine and reset secure boot keys while attempting to enroll the keys" error. My motherboard is a gigabyte 850m gaming x wifi6e.

This is the first time I've ever tinkered with secure boot on linux, so yeah this maybe a stupid question. Also didn't find anything useful on the wiki.

I have Windows installed with secure boot enabled. When I use Linux, I normally disable secure boot in all my devices. However, this specific rig is my gaming rig, which some games require secure boot to be enabled.

I'm currently using Arch Linux. Feel free to ask for further details

Not sure if it's normal but I'm suddenly starting to have flappy scrotum and pressure there. I've never felt this whenever I did nofap.

It's kinda making me wanna relapse lol

I'm an avid player of Fortnite, thoroughly enjoying the dynamic gameplay and competitive spirit it offers. My passion for the game has grown to the point where I'm now seriously considering taking the plunge into the more organized and high-stakes world of tournaments. The idea of testing my skills against other dedicated players, climbing leaderboards, and potentially even winning some exciting prizes is incredibly appealing and has become a major goal for me in my gaming journey.

However, a rather significant technical hurdle has emerged, casting a shadow over my tournament aspirations. It appears that my current gaming setup(iMac 2020 27 inch retina), while generally performing well for regular play, lacks a crucial component: a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 chip. This discovery was quite a surprise, as I hadn't encountered this requirement previously for standard Fortnite matches. Now, faced with this unexpected roadblock, a pressing question weighs heavily on my mind: are there any viable methods or solutions available that could enable me to get TPM 2.0 functionality working on my system? I'm hoping to find a way to overcome this technical limitation so I can fully participate in the competitive scene that Fortnite tournaments represent. The thought of being excluded due to a hardware specification is quite disheartening, and I'm eager to explore all possible avenues to resolve this issue and finally embark on my competitive Fortnite journey.

I'm currently embarking on a significant technological upgrade, moving away from my trusty 2020 iMac. This machine has served me well for a few years, but I'm now venturing into the exciting, albeit somewhat intimidating, world of custom-built PCs. I've decided to entrust this important build to a PC builder who is fairly well-regarded in the community, someone with a decent reputation for quality and expertise. Since this is a completely new territory for me, a significant departure from the plug-and-play simplicity of the Apple ecosystem, I find myself with a couple of crucial questions regarding one of the most vital components of a high-performance machine: the cooling system. My primary concerns revolve around understanding the practicalities of both liquid and air cooling solutions, specifically:

1. What exactly does "maintenance" entail for both liquid cooling systems and air cooling systems? I'm curious about the routine checks, cleaning procedures, and any potential issues or tasks that I, as the new owner, would need to be aware of or perform to keep my PC running optimally and to ensure the longevity of its components. Are there significant differences in the time commitment or technical skill required for maintaining each type of cooling?

2. Is there a truly noticeable and substantial performance jump or advantage between using an air cooling setup versus a liquid cooling setup, particularly when it comes to demanding tasks such as gaming, video editing, or other processor-intensive applications? I'm trying to weigh the potential benefits against any added complexity or cost associated with liquid cooling to make an informed decision for my new custom PC. I'm keen to understand if the difference is purely academic or if it translates into a tangible improvement in real-world usage scenarios.

3. Any other maintenance tips to maximize longevity?

My cousin wants to have a good laptop that can run Fortnite 120 fps medium graphics, minecraft with shaders, and games like GTA V etc, all under 80k

Based on the NIRF ranking, i chose SRM over Karunya Institute of Technology and Sathyabama. However reading a bunch of the posts here makes me second doubt myself... I chose B.Tech CSE. Is it really that bad?

Unfortunately, our subreddit is not really as active as it used it to be 6 months ago.

Please do post on our subreddits similar to this so that we can change how the world looks at India. You can DM me for an upvote, as a token of appreciation. And also please do be careful in doing so. Don't tell it's a promotional post on the way, instead you can include as "credits" :)

We have relaxed more rules. You can now post selfies of yourself. If you have a really old/cheap phone, you can now use AI to upscale and create clear photos! Blurry images are allowed for aesthetics only.

For best results, use gemini. Here's the prompt:

Enhance the sharpness and clarity of this image using a texture-preserving method.

STRICT REQUIREMENTS:
- Preserve all natural micro-textures (skin pores, fine hair, leaf grain, fabric fibers, surface noise)
- Do NOT smooth or denoise the image
- Do NOT apply beauty filters or surface cleanup
- Do NOT alter colors, lighting, contrast, or composition
- Do NOT hallucinate or invent details

SHARPENING RULES:
- Apply edge-aware sharpening only
- Enhance real edges without creating halos or ringing artifacts
- Maintain original noise pattern and fine grain structure
- Avoid plastic, waxy, or over-processed look

GOAL:
The result should look like the same photo captured with a sharper lens, not an AI-enhanced or retouched image.

You'll now be able to post "AI Enhanced" photos. We shall provide the prompt in gemini to enhance your photos.

Please do provide "AI Enhanced photos" in the description, otherwise the post may be removed.

Dear brothers and sisters of India,

I'd like to announce that i finished school and i have more free time. Hence stuff like post of the month system will be back. The current plan is:

1. The top 5 highest engaging posts will be selected and be voted for. Upvotes, shares and views will be accounted.

2. The top 5 post of the month will be voted to be the post of the year. The winner will have the photo as the DP of the subreddit with their consent.

3. We will start holding contests yearly, once we reach 10k members, so please do spread awareness about our subreddit. And the winner will win 100 rupees
