#Windows10 needs to handle color customization better. Some custom accent color hues are unusable because Windows automatically selects a bad Start background color with low contrast and I cannot manually set it separately from the accent color. https://aka.ms/Rrxs5g @Windows

@JourneymanGeek so far I've added two entirely new projects, one of which has probably at least triple the amount of code as growler/toaster, and I'm still not done
@Ramhound so... I noticed that Hashim doesn't quite seem to like you. Naturally we need to deal with this at both sides but - mind if you could refrain from commenting on his posts? I mean, editing them in those cases would be fine and all, but this might be a way to reduce friction. Its not an official request or anything.
i will attempt to refrain from submitting comments to Hashims questions although I think it’s slightly unfair that because they have a problem I must do that. They have proven to be slightly paranoid with regards to me.
I am guessing my rant about submitting information in a comment instead of editing his question is the source of this request. Hashim should know better regards to comments
thats the thing it’s only a conflict for one person, I am going through the stuff, I clearly don’t possess the ability currently to identify a conflict exists
personally I really dislike the culture of question/answer authors being so possessive of not wanting others to edit them, even when the corrections are obvious, correct, and improve the Q or A... the edit function is there for a reason
people treat SE like a forum when it's supposed to be more like Wikipedia... instead we have the forum-like splatter of 10-15 answers, each with about 1/10th of the true answer, so to get a proper picture in your head of the best possible answer you have to assemble the jigsaw puzzle from at least several non-perfect answers
I am more then willing to edit the question for someone but in this case I still never got which case they were using. Wanted to look up the case and motherboard, see how many fans it had, and answer the question
@allquixotic the problem is when an edit changes the meaning in a significant way - that can impact the reputation (not just the "rep points" either) of the original author. And when multiple solutions are possible but merged into one answer it can also make voting/ranking less useful.
Now I admit I showed my frustration with a user with so many questions and answers leaving information in a comment (considering I think he even complained about comments disappearing)
I need to programmatically insert a USB flash drive into a device. I have, effectively, only physical access to said device*. A script running on another device needs to connect the flash drive and disconnect it automatically w/ no physical movement
So you want software running on the device to plug a storage device into said device? Using no physical movements, just that include, mechanical movement?
So I'm wondering if someone sells an off-the-shelf device than I can remotely disable. Failing that, can I put a relay or something in a strategic place on a disassembled flash drive?
@Undo If you want to go for the 'full' solution you'd need a device that can act as both USB host and peripheral (Arduino-based, maybe, or some RPi models can do that).
Technically it's a bit undefined what happens when you have the data pins connected to an unpowered device but that probably isn't a practical problem.
I think with these relays it'll fail in whichever direction it was last set
@Undo The only problem with this approach is it might not work without switching the data lines ... which is much harder. Before you buy anything, you should probably test it - just manually connect/disconnect the power line and see if it works :P
@Bob How often do you need to cycle the relay? 100,000 operations isn't easy to exhaust within a few years' time unless your application needs to actuate the relay hundreds of times a day.
> albacore is a suite of Rake tasks to automate the process of building a .NET based system. It's like MSBuild or Nant... but without all the stabby-bracket xmlhell.
NVIDIA TITAN V: 5120 CUDA cores in 80 of 84 SMs on Volta GV100 @ 1200-1455 MHz; 12 GB HBM2 @ 1.7 Gbps over 3072-bit bus; 13.8 TFLOPS FP32 with fully-enabled FP64 (1/2 of FP32)
@JourneymanGeek I dunno, seems to be partially asking if those certifications require third-party testing (which to be sure is more of an EE.SE question, but ... context of laptop charger). That's not opinion.
@bwDraco this is about as "consumer" as ... I can't even think of a suitably non-consumer comparison
I'm not replacing an $850 graphics card simply because there's something "new". The clock frequency on GV100 is far, far lower than GP102 or GP104. TSMC 12nm is not mature.

Look, 815 mm² die on the most advanced process TSMC has to offer. This cannot possibly be cheap to manufacture.
> 815 mm²
Do you realize how absurdly large this is?
Manufacturing cost increases exponentially with die size. Not only do you have fewer chips on each wafer, yields are significantly lower because similar defect rates will render a larger proportion of larger dies unusable.
For comparison, GP104 (GeForce GTX 1070 and 1080) is 314 mm².
I'm not sure when winter offically starts here, but it's definitely arrived. We have snow on the ground, in december, for the first time in a loooooong time
So, let's say I'm adding a few (6) drives to the ongoing loft server, and I was wondering about SATA expansion.
Should I go for two PCI-to-SATAx4 or one PCIEv2-to-SATAx8 card? (in the spirit of the one-horse-sized duck vs one hundred suck-sized horses)
I'm a bit hazy on the details about lanes, throughput etc
The latter (PCIEv2) is more expensive, but it's a card that's hopefully going to sit in there working away for $years, so cost (over time) isn't the main consideration unless all other things are equal
Also woohoo, fifth time lucky. I've FINALLY managed to get hold of a Z5 Compact screen protector with an actual oleophobic coating not a fake one that claims to have it but doesn't
@allquixotic I'd really like an Arduino. And some other equipment for this project I've been meaning to work on for months but don't have any resources for.
Also the constant fighting at home is getting to me, so I've sorta blocked people (family) out, except that I'm not sure if being indifferent is really helping me.
I own a Discord server and would like to add custom emoji like other servers have done.
In the below screenshot, it shows some indicator emoji that I cannot type, such as :blurple_h:.
discord is a voice and text chat program similar to Skype and Teamviewer. It's available both as a downloadable desktop application for Windows/Mac/Linux, and as an in-browser Web Application.
My recent question How do @everyone and @here work? What's the difference between them? currently has 2...
@StevenVascellaro that's not true; you may be able to customize your server from the client app, but the server is a conceptually separate entity owned/controlled by Discord... otherwise, if you shut down your PC, anyone else connected to your Discord server would get dropped
