How to prevent a Windows update from bricking my PC every couple of weeks...
2024.11.27 00:40 SketchupandFries How to prevent a Windows update from bricking my PC every couple of weeks...
I'm being forced a windows update.
So, about a month ago I let this update install - it totally bricked my computer and I had to go through some long winded restore point (which I was lucky to even have, as I usually switch off restore points) windows managed to start up and began to roll back and remove the update, after like 5 reboots it was back to where it was before.
It was pretty touch and go at one point where I thought I'd lose everything and have to reformat and install the OS again.
I suspect it's due to having a brand new motherboard and processor that is still having some issues ironed out..
In all my decades of using computers, I've never come across a piece of standard software not working because the motherboard needed a bios uodate.. but it happened.
I was unable to use an essential plugin in my music software until a BIOS update fixed something called "AGESA compatibility".. very weird. I spent 3 weeks trying to fix that, tearing my hair out. Reinstalling different Windows version three times with the same result. Then the BIOS update fixed it immediately. Face palm.
Anyway, "Pause Updates for 7 Days" option is greyed out Advanced options " Pause Updates until date" is greyed out
Apparently me putting it off has finally elapsed. At some point it's going to force restart (possibly next reboot) and go through the same damn bricking process all over again.
Is there any way to stop this?
This is all in Windows 10. I've actually set up a dual-boot with Windows 11, with all the exact same programs installed.
I can use that if Win10 goes wrong and locks me out. But even on this workstation that I built purely for work (AMD Ryzen 9 9950x - no graphics card - just using integrated graphics, which has actually been perfect!)
But Windows 11 is a damn slow. Even after a massive debloat and clean up. My benchmarks are all 5-10% slower. This computer is literally only running one piece of software to do my work (Cubase). I don't even want it online most of the time, only to download and send project files to people .
So, can I turn off Windows update somehow, all it does is break things on this otherwise perfectly well running machine. I'm unlikely to download and run and viruses or visit any malicious sites as everything I up/down goes through Dropbox.

2024.11.27 00:40 furryporksubmarine Day 2 of tattooing humans. How can I improve my pressure consistency?
 | This is my fourth tattoo on human skin. I’m in a tattoo school because my state requires it. The goal is solid lines in a single pass. My teachers say my speed is ok but I need to work on my depth/pressure consistency. Does anyone have any tips on how I can practice this in between class days? The school doesn’t really want us tattooing on fake skin in our own time because it could reinforce bad habits. Any help is appreciated! submitted by furryporksubmarine to TattooBeginners [link] [comments] |

Norwegian Cruise Line, specifically the Breakaway ship for a 10-day Mediterranean Europe cruise. Has anyone done this?
I am trying to decide if I want to join a big family trip on this trip next year. Our family has done Disney Cruises in the past. What was your experience? It’s a different city every day - does it feel overwhelming? Is it hard to enjoy the European cities with so many cruise ship people? How’s the food and small staterooms? Open to any insight!!!!

How can they drop the ball so hard with so much potential? I’m all for arcane skins but the rework is to much by taking so much we loved about the champion away in each skin and the skins we wanted like a simple “prototype” of arcane S1 Viktor are rejected.

 | I am little confused, I have just started with iRacing and have done only these three races and at the end of the 3rd one I ranked up immediately, I thought you only ranked up at the end of the season or when your SR hit 4.0. Other question is there a way to see the next season schedule so I can figure out if I want to to buy another one of the tracks coming up? submitted by dresdentc24 to iRacing [link] [comments] |

2024.11.27 00:40 Truman_Puppet What does “soon” mean?
Wife is slowly saying “l love you”, sending hearts in texts again, will let me hold her hand for a few minutes, will let me give her a hug and rub her back a little. Talks about reconciliation a little but keeps saying “soon”. As in “I feel like I will be all in soon.” What does that mean?
The last time she said it was just the other day (two days ago), previous to that it was 20 days ago.
I understand slow and steady wins the race. Consistency in talking and demonstrating the love and partnership, etc.
Just curious what this sub thinks that means or what I should do about it? I don’t want to ask or pressure her. I don’t want to come off as nagging.
Thanks!

2024.11.27 00:40 welcomeOhm MS-DOS Copying 5.25" Disks to 3.5"
I'm running my old programs in DOSBox and installing them with an external USB 3.5" drive. This is on Ubuntu 22.04.
My issue is that I have a few programs that only came with 5.25" disks: the two I'm wanting to copy from 5.25" to 3.5" are The Lost Treasures of Infocom Vol. II and a set of utilities from "Undocumented DOS" for system exploration.
Looking at Amazon and eBay didn't show any external 5.25" drives less than $150, and those used the old RS-232 serial connector. Given that, is there anyone on this subreddit who could copy these disks for me? I would send them to you along with a new pack of 3.5" disks and pay shipping both ways. Of course, if I'm missing out on a way to do it myself, that information would be great as well.
