After update, turning off monitor results in primary device disconnection error in upper right corner won't go away unless closed
how do I stop this? Since I can't post an image in this sub for some dumb reason, here's an imgur link
But this never happened before the latest update of windows (august 2026). Only updates I see are security update kb5121003 and net framework security update KB5120708.
But the only mention I found of this popup online is someone else complaining about it in 2021 and the moron is telling him to do a system restore, which is just blanket update troubleshooting. But I'm sure this issue isn't just the update. It's some kind of weird feature microsoft added that somehow only now got enabled.
Alexa play Despacito
Got my first raid in a LOOOONG time... Shame I played horribly but had some fun.
Enjoy my suffering and if you want to see more, come find me on https://www.twitch.tv/ragengauge or check out my clips on youtube.
2016- the Summer of Systweak
Spent like 3 days calling this scam call center back in 2016. Back when go-trunk still let you set-cid. So whenever they blocked my number, I'd just advance it one digit, or set my phone number as the same as theirs and then tell them I worked there.
The possibilities were endless, the lols were many.
I found the full video with not all the subtitling done, so I finished the subtitling and finally uploaded probably one of the best scambaits I have ever done....
If you got any phone numebrs or a SIP trunk that allows you to use set-cid, I'd love to start doing this again.
I am ill and the only cure is more hard drives!
I've at least managed to not fill up drive 7 yet... But my movie and tv list is still long.
I really need a NAS tho so I can have at least some redundancy, but that means EVEN MORE hard drive purchases I can't afford.
30yo m4F Southern NJ | It's just the same people posting here constantly
I think this whole place is just full of bots. I've been scrolling through here on occasion for years now, and it seems like every time I go to message someone it's someone I sent a DM to at some point and never heard back from.
So f*ck it, I'm gonna risk it for the biscuit and post myself.
Full disclosure, a lot of attraction for me is physical. Otherwise, it's really just a friendship, right? But, that's fine too. I'm open to just some gaming partners. I don't need something dumb like pictures or anything out the gate though. Let's just chat and see where things go. I am dating with intention here, but I don't want to just jump into something with a stranger.
So in the interest of equal footing, I'm 6'2 and ~200lbs. White, Irish Italian mix if that matters. Due to the italian in my, I'm pretty hairy... not crazy, but enough, and lighter skinned. Like a weird mix between mediterranean hairy and fair irish skin. I do have a full thick head of wavy hair. Tends to be unruly at times. And I maintain a mustache because my job does not let me have a beard (volly ff and EMT as well as nursing all require the use of fitted face masks, and while I think I might look better with a beard, I like being able to breath even more). Not really religious but not into telling people they are wrong for believing in something. I'm willing to send a picture or two if you want. I guess this sounds fairly shallow, but I feel like you have to be attracted to people. And if we're not, that's fine, we can still be friends and game or something. I just don't want to waste either of our times.
I aim to hit the gym 6 days a week. It ends up being anywhere from 4-6 days a week. Alternating a PPL split and running/otherwise steady state cardio. So I'm fairly active. Still got a bit of a gut left from when I was 260lbs, but I'm trying to get rid of that and it's not really that noticeable. I'm a bit hard on myself for that, but as someone who lost weight and became an athlete and still maintained the fitness level of one, it sucks I don't look like one. But I love fitness, and while I don't need someone as crazy as me nor do I need a gym date (it's probably more effective NOT to workout together... as we just slow each other down), I hope you have a bit of outdoor activity.
But at heart I'm an absolute nerd. Mostly anime and gaming. Finally watching through Ghost in the Shell SAC, something I've meant to do for a while. Been working through DBZ when me and my friend get together too. The original cut that aired on CN, in all its goofy censorship and dramatic musical glory. I love my dumb stupid ecchis too. I love how ridiculous some of the scenarios are... like the whole concept of a swarm of panties flying around the world like migratory birds. If it's not your thing, I won't bother you with it. But if you love dumb raunchy shows, let me know and we can laugh about them together. I love meeting people who are into them and, due to everyone just thinking they're stupid h*rny shows for h*rny nerds (and for some people, they are), you don't meet many people who can just laugh at the goofy comedy. And on the end of me having bad taste, I love me some dumb isekai slop too. MHA was a guilty pleasure and I kept up on it from season 2 all the way to the end. I pretty much like all manners of anime... And live action shows for that matter.
I game too. Recently been doing a bit more online gaming again, but still love playing story based games. Been working through Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Some recent games I finished include Monster Hunter Stories 3, Doom (2016), Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter Remake, Ace Combat 7, and RE9. Excited for Ace Combat 8. Online games I've been playing include BF6, Arc Raiders, and Valorant. Most of the time I am playing alone, so if you have something you want to play, just ask and I'll probably find some time to play it with you.
I love other stuff too though. It's just hard since I'm busy with finishing up nursing school (and also devoid of money due to this). Since I really don't have many people to hang out with, I end up just spending what free money I do have on new games or other stuff indoors. But I want to try surfing, Snowboarding, and I love gokarting. Did you know we have the largest indoor go kart track in the world near us? I regularly take the time to get up early to run along Boathouse Row in Philly or go out to the shore to run in the sunrise. If that's your bag, perhaps we can meet.
Since perhaps someone will bring it up, I don't do much tabletop. I'm not exactly opposed to it, but I've never been drawn into it enough to invest the time. I did some D&D in highschool and college, but very little and mostly just goof around.
I don't see this really attracting anyone... I feel like I just don't mesh with anyone. I'm somehow too nerd for the normal people but not nerd enough for the nerds. Or maybe I've just become so set in my ways that I am actually self destructing any chance at love by just mentioning sh*t like ecchi in this post. I've tried IRL and, being 30, I don't know where to meet people. It feels like anyone remotely my age is already taken or just flat out not interested. But I'm tired of DMing bots.
So if you're like me and tired of throwing messages into the either, shoot me a DM. Hell, even if you're not in the area, let's be friends. I'm tired of gaming alone. Let's see where things go.
HE'S BACK!!!
The abuse continues 200 years later. I barely know him and already on the right page with his proper placement within the party.
Plex Specific movie page won't load on fire stick
So I added a movie, and when pulling it up on the web browser or windows app, it loads find.
But when trying to load on my tv via fire stick (this was tried with two separate fire sticks) the video shows up in search and in recently added, but upon selecting it, the page loads endlessly. Not the video. This is the page. It just shows a few items, like the poster, but the description, play button, etc fail to load
My setup while on campus
Run a classic cn tv channels. Sundays watching toonami and laying in bed in the later afternoon were peak
Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced - 30 Sec Review
Had an idea of a way to make better use of shorts. I buy a lot of games on steam and leave reviews a lot to help others not waste their money like I do.
I also just enjoy making videos and wanted to find ways to increase discoverability.
Had a brain wave and decided to start making shorts of my steam reviews, the idea being being concise and not getting into too much detail (boosts engagement and kinda fits the theme), just hitting the main points I notice.
More entertainment than informative honestly. Yes, the music is supposed to sound awful, it's the cursed funky town music. May keep using it for a consistent brand... May not. Not sure yet. Open to suggestions on other games to review, as well as what you think works and doesn't work for this style.
AKA: review the review?
Slow library load times and massive metadata?
So apparently it's best to have metadata on an ssd...
problem is, I have a big library and I like to have all the comforts, so my metadata folder is MASSIVE. Plex provides ZERO way to split this across multiple drvies. Wtf am I supposed to do? Buy an 8tb and hope for the best?
Classic Cartoon Network stream
After G4tv's reboot died, I went back to having cn on my tv. I hadn't done that since like 2017. Even then 2017 was not very good, but I had gotten used to having tv on int he background, but there was nothing to watch.
So I made my own channel.
https://vaughn.live/cnclassic
It's not ALL 2000s nostalgia, but the core focus is around 2000s, with some good 2010s shows and of course plenty of good 90s shows.

Edit: I got a "rule 4" notification, so mods, please don't consider this as spam. I don't get anything for you guys going here. This isn't a paid service. It's something I setup for me and found a bunch of other people that enjoyed it, and since just want to bring it to people who appreciate it.
My friend sent me this in Discord and this definitely feels like something that needs to be here.
sorry I can't remove the overlayed image for readability.
Fullscreen VM gets stuck
So in trying to set vm to fullscreen, the top bar disappears. the only way to get out of the VM on a single monitor is to CTrl+alt+del and open the task manager (windows host)
ctrl alt and whatnot may or may not work, but even not selecting the vm the vm gets locked to the top so I can't alt tab on that monitor. Current version is 26H1
The steam controller smells nice
Like the vent of the deck.
I realized something. The smell from the deck isn't from the components inside. It's something about the plastic they use, because the controller has no heated vent. The vent just blows the plastic smell.
