Moved to CachyOS cause screw MicroSlop, Can't play the game anymore :(

Have tried a bunch of different proton versions and things. Nothing happens when I click the play button on steam. :( Anyone got it working? Really wanted to continue playing this game, have been playing since beta.

Edited to add, would love to play this on my steam machine as well on my TV.

Lasted a little over 3 years

So I treated myself to a K3 3 years ago for my work/ travel keyboard. Prior to this used a random no name chinese mechanical 60% keyboard that lasted for 5+ years for the same function. I liked the idea of the low profile keycaps taking up less space in my bag. As you can imagine the keyboard is used both wired, wirelessly for a number of laptops and phones etc. And has been working fine. But recently I noticed the bluetooth connection being really spotty and the battery dying constantly. I also felt as though my typing epxerience was worse for some reason. Only to turn it over last week and notice this massive bulge.

I'm pretty nervous as I know batteries that expand can explode. I have reached out to support, who asked me to dissassemble the device so they could see the connector for the battery. They told me it's out of warranty, I said that's fine and I am more than capable of fixing it myself if they send me the battery, and maybe the bluetooth module as that may have been damaged.

I just wanted to ask if anyone else has had this issue? What could have caused this? I know batteries can swell either if they're not charged regularly enough, or if they are kept charging constantly. Neither of which was the use case for this keyboard.

New Model, pretty sweet colour

Have really enjoyed my LTT screwdriver, I wish the nuclear one came with a black shaft, but I like green so couldnt resist. I have to say, the old box was way nicer and better. The new one just feels a bit worse in everyway, maybe it's a necessary cost cutting measure, but really don't like the plain cardboard

New laptop, what about stickers?

Got a new work laptop, decent bump in performance, but any suggestions on the best way to go about transferring the stickers? I'll have to take them off the old one anyway and put the device back into circulation for another user.

Some of them are discontinued, my favourite is the do not drop one honestly.

Steam Machine DOA? Black screen no response from input

Sony TV. Standard settings, same port works for my Legion Go S and steam Deck. But the machine seems to be completely unresponsive. No sounds, not picture. My controller turns off after some time indicating it isn't connected to anything. Have tried hard reboot. Any suggestions? Was pretty stoked this morning. Now quite annoyed.

UPDATE 1: I plugged it into my monitor on my desk and it's worked fine. But that's not really ideal as I bought this for couch gaming. I'm installing updates now, so let's see if it needed an update to work with my TV. It worked on my monitor using a random HDMI cable.

UPDATE 3: I GOT IT WORKING. I fiddled around with TV menus. And found "RS232C Control" I moved the setting from "Via HDMI port" to "off". Which forced a restart on the TV and my steam machine started outputting video to the TV! I'll add the picture below for anyone elses reference

S1 Pro is not compatible with ANY 3.5" drives according to Eufy

So trying to troubleshoot why my SkyHawk AI drive isn't working with the S1. Turns out the S1 can only output 5V, it's can't handle any 12V drives. As a result the app is stating only 2.5" drives are compatible.

Got scammed for £70 on my builder.com

Hi,

I had to get a brick wall redone after it fell over. Got a builder who said they'd come the next day and get on with the job. And asked for £70 for the cement and materials etc.

They never showed up, and now I'm out £70. Mybuilder.com aren't doing much of anything about it. I've contacted the bank as well. But as it was a bank transfer theyre not hopeful much will happen.

I have his name, bank and card details, as well as his number. The website he had listed on the platform was drivewaysuk.co.uk and embarrassingly on closer inspection. This website is clearly fake.

Any advice would be good.

Thanks,
