    USB-C 2.0 Hub

    @Izerous Afaik even that splitter requires PD handshaking over USB 3.x specs to work. Still no Bueno on a USB 2.0 device @moocow honestly Id say my last previous suggestion is your best bet then. One charger with multiple outputs, and two cables charging the headphones and the tablet...

    USB-C 2.0 Hub

    Just had a look around. USB C 2.0 is such a strange choice... and I think youre screwed. Didn't look too far into it, but Im not certain 2.0 has any PD back charging capabilities when using a hub or dock? Doesn't seem like it anyways. My suggestion would be to use a USB C to A adapter, and...

    BMW seat wiring harness for SIM cocpkits

    Small update: Seats still don't work. Every DIY project I've find online claims the seats should work for a few seconds just with power and ground.. mine don't. Posted about it on e90post.com forum (which has had detailed breakdowns of similar projects, years ago): no replies. I'm thinking...

    Melting 12V-2x6 connector saga continues to a 9070 XT

    Ill never, ever buy any card with this new connector. It was dumb when it came out, and I was very vocal about that. Nothing has changed except new ways to waste money solving the problems this stupid connector makes. If only AMD cares enough to not require it, then I'll keep on buying AMD cards.

    need help finding a case.

    @Marzipan Silverstone Milo 03? Can be stood upright, 4x low profile pcie slots, full ATX psu, room for a few HDDs/ SSDs, and 4x right (or top, when stood up) 80mm fan spots to draw hot air out, directly above the top edge of the mobo.

    need help finding a case.

    IGPU only right? No need for the slots other than the mATX motherboard? If the slots are to be used, half height or full height? Or, Alternatively, a separate gpu chamber IF needed?

    need help finding a case.

    Good ol Silverstone Sugo13/14? Could probably find one on ebay, but those put the PSU in the dumb spot right over the socket. Ive got a few other options in my head, just images I gotta Google and put names to. I dont build as many PCs as I used to... sigh. Will reply again later if I can...

    Scrapped DDR4 Server RAM now worth $20K

    Uhhh.... well I dont have 72 sticks of 32gb. But I do have (for some* reason) 16x 8Gb DDR4 ECC sticks. Wonder how much those are now. *= the reason being that totally-secret Epyc build I've had sitting around for over 2 years... 😅😓😔🥲😭

    Logging / watching Wifi: weird behavior

    I surveyed the 4 corners of my house when I set up the AP years ago, got enough to know where I could put my AP and where the "black holes" of signal strength killing were. Single AP (for now). Wired. PoE powered but connected only by a 6ft Cat6e cable.

    Logging / watching Wifi: weird behavior

    Im only using fixed channels far away (decibel -wise) from.pthers because the wifi in my house is problematic (solid iron beams used in its construction) and because my AP is a bit underpowered to cover the whole house reliably. In other words, im trying to get the most out of my signal strength...

    Logging / watching Wifi: weird behavior

    You all know I'm not a networking guy... (I STILL havent cut out the "middle box", months later... dont ask) But Ive got a (hopefully) easier Q this time: I'm slightly suspicious that one of my neighbors - intentionally or not - has a powerful wifi setup that hops onto the channels I use from...

    Rants etc.....

    Finally tried Smart tube... Interface is meh, polish is meh. But the important part: there seems to be no controls at all for touchscreen devices. So very heavily aimed at android TV users with some sort of external remote control? Open a context menu like the video one to select video quality...

    Whats your latest purchase?

    Kinda wondering... did anyone else ever get the Lian-Li box to re-home their 360s? Was it only me that was dumb enough / lian li fan boy enough to do it? Its been running quiet(er) and stable for quite some time, albeit I rarely use it nowadays. Having the whole console cooled by a standard...

    What music subscription service are you using?

    Actually gave in and got Spotify premium, for just a couple key reasons: - BAN Specific artists!!! Ffs I needed this. I kept getting a "collab" song between an artist I like... and a rapper. A rapper whose Only words at the beginning of their collaboration song is B*tch. F-ing obnoxious...
