| USB hub adding noise to external DAC (sound card)? Posted: 24 Nov 2020 02:23 AM PST I have an external sound card (DAC). When I plug it into my PC via USB (for power and data) it sounds good. Using the same cable, when I plug it into a USB hub that sits behind my monitor (near other cables + power cords), I get a very audible hiss sound. If the USB cable is just digital, where does the hiss come from? If I jiggle the USB cable while it's plugged in (to anything), I also get scratching sounds which I don't understand, since the DAC converts the audio AFTER that point right? I'm trying to understand how the hiss is passed through the DAC which comes AFTER the source of the noise. [link] [comments] |
| Question about starting "new" and more private browsing options Posted: 24 Nov 2020 01:19 AM PST Hi! I really don't know anything about data and how my phone works but I am trying to learn, so please be nice. I have some questions about technology and privacy. For pretty much my entire life I've grown up with Apple devices and with the internet, making random email accounts, social media accounts, etc. I don't have access to a lot of that stuff anymore and would like to start "fresh." I have pretty bad anxiety about all of this and I know it's impossible to erase stuff from the internet, but I need some advice about how to go forward. When I started worrying about this stuff I deleted one of my old gmail accounts, my old Apple ID, made a new one, and did this again a year later, erasing my iPhone and creating a new Apple ID. Most recently I deleted my Gmail account and replaced it with ProtonMail. I did this for the 2 gmail accounts I use for everything, and also deleted almost all of my social media. I also have a school email that I have to use to see school portals, which I also use for stuff like Quizlet, Chegg, and random websites. I also have an iCloud email for my Apple ID. I'm planning on erasing my iPhone and using it without an Apple ID. I would delete my Apple ID, erase my phone, set it up as a new phone, make a new Apple ID to download some apps, delete the Apple ID again, and use my phone without an Apple ID. I would also erase the hardrive on my Mac. What are some other ways I can protect my privacy and my data? I'm going to start using FireFox and I'm considering using a VNP (I know we can't talk about individual ones on here, but I'm looking into it). How does what I'm planning sound to everyone on here? Any suggestions? Do you recommend any other browsers or ways of protecting my information? Is any of this worth it if I still have a school email (Outlook) that probably sells my data? Any advice and help is appreciated. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 24 Nov 2020 01:00 AM PST ive hit rock bottom. but reddit is full of a bunch of smart people so please help, I was drawing on my tablet and then the touch censors stopped working so I pressed the power button and played a bit of my game, i turned it back on and kept trying to restart it by holding the power button but i just got it so I haven't changed the automatic turn off time to 10 minutes yet, its at like 10 seconds, which gives it no time to turn off, so while panicking I kept trying to turn it off then the screen started blinking and it did that for like 5 minutes then it shut off, it won't turn back on, it can't be dead, it was at around 30 percent, I don't think it drained that fast, but I'm seriously panicking im literally screwed if it doesn't work so please help me [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 24 Nov 2020 02:54 AM PST So, I wanted to expand my ssd space on my notebook ( nitro 5 ). There is no hd, only that m.2 ssd, then I thought about buying that ssd that is large, just like a hdd. But it came in my mind, what will happen if I install my operational system in my M.2 ssd, and all my games on the new ssd ( The large one ) [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 23 Nov 2020 08:30 PM PST For reference I'm running Windows 10 on a Lenovo 910 laptop. The hub is a Vava 8 in 1, which is generally highly rated hub among reviewers. When plugged into the charging USB-C port my browser will be very choppy and other programs in general run much slower despite task manager not pointing to any extra CPU usage. When I switch the hub to my data only USB-C port though it instantly all goes back to normal. For the most part I can't imagine this being too big of an issue but considering the hub allows for pass-through power I'd like to be able to use the feature since that's part of the reason I wanted this hub.

| Can I benefit from having 2 Wifi Gateways in my home? Posted: 23 Nov 2020 08:14 PM PST Hi, this is a bit of a weird situation I'm in but I want to see if there's a way I can take advantage of it and get better wifi without having to spend any money. A few months ago I moved into a new house that already had an internet plan (fiber optic, only super fast at 5ghz and the house is big and old, so its tough to get full reception it in my room). I was fortunate enough to be able to keep the wifi gateway from my last plan though and have it here with me. Surprisingly its the same make and model that the new house has, a A HITRON CGNM-2250 D3 WiFi Gateway So now I have two of these things. Is there anyway I can hook them up to each other to extend a stronger signal further throughout the house? Any help or pointing into the direction of help would be greatly appreciated.

| Windows10 - Is there a way to have a "second desktop" under one user? Posted: 23 Nov 2020 05:55 PM PST Hey there! But I'm wondering if there's a way to have two different desktops, with different icons/shortcuts available? [link] [comments] |
| Can you advise me on whether to get an Hp Envy laptop or HP Spectre? Posted: 23 Nov 2020 06:40 PM PST I'm trying to decide between the two laptops. I really wanted a Dell XPS but their constant issues have turned me off, and now I'm looking to HP. I'm considering the Envy 15 with core i7 or similar Spectre. Are they good laptops and if you had to choose between them which would you pick? Also, have there been frequent or significant problems reported with either model? I just want a machine that's high quality, fast, works well with no major problems (like bad thermals for example). What do you think? [link] [comments] |
| Can a hacker use your IP to find your exact address? Posted: 23 Nov 2020 01:53 PM PST Maybe i am a little paranoid but one of my social network accounts got hacked and cannot regain access. Thats not my main concern. I am more concerned whether they will be able to see my exact address/location. Thanks [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 23 Nov 2020 07:53 AM PST Hello r/AskTechnology I have tried finding a solution online for a long time, but have been constantly coming up short. I'm trying to "export" my entire text history between my wife and I so that I can read it and then print out a book that I can gift her for Christmas. I've looked for free or even paid software that can take the data off my Mac (not off the phone) and potentially convert it to a pdf or doc, but have not found anything. I can't keep just "scrolling up" on the iMessage because we are talking about years of text history. If anyone has an idea or solution on how to go about this, I would REALLY appreciate it! Thank you! [link] [comments] |
| How to run 32 bit programs on 64 bit windows 10? Posted: 23 Nov 2020 01:51 PM PST I recently wanted to play an old game from my childhood again. I have an iso file. Mounting/opening the file gives me two possible .exe files, both of which are incompatible with my windows, apparently because it's 64 bit. I tried several things but nothing seemed to let me actually run it. Is there any way to do this apart from making a Virtual Machine of Windows XP or something? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 23 Nov 2020 12:10 PM PST Hi, i have over 300 png files which i need to convert to ico, is there any program which will allow me to do this? I searched few programs it seems they only save 1 or 10 files at once. I'm looking for a time saving solution [link] [comments] |
| Are There Any Open Internet/Communication Projects? Posted: 23 Nov 2020 12:38 PM PST I am very concerned that our current US political climate and government/corporate overreach could hurt connections for people. We use the internet for knowledge and to stay in touch with people we care about. People that are outsiders in their own communities rely on friends far away for support, and may be the difference between hanging on and suicide for them. Are there any projects akin to mesh networks, Tor, encrypted messengers like Signal, etc., that will hold up if things take a turn for the worst? [link] [comments] |
| What does "IMAC" refer to in this field services technician job posting? Posted: 23 Nov 2020 07:32 AM PST I know it's not referring to the apple computer. I've seen this acronym used in IT settings but I've been googling for like 30 minutes and can't get a clear answer on what this means. FYI I'm not applying for this job myself: I'm trying to determine someone else's compatibility.

| Would soldering a new analog stick on a controller change its properties? Posted: 23 Nov 2020 09:03 AM PST So I have a pair of chinese Joycons clones, but they have a pretty large central deadzone that's a bit annoying to deal with. My question is, is it something hardware related, meaning that soldering a new and better pair of analog sticks would get rid of the problem, or is it something firmware related? I've tried checking them out in Joycon Toolkit, and it seems like the sticks aren't outputting anything when they move in that deadzone, so I think it might be hardware related. What do you think?

| Connecting multiple USB devices over a long distance? Posted: 23 Nov 2020 08:18 AM PST Hello all. I'm trying to setup a practice plane cockpit on the other side of the room (or possibly in another room). I currently have four devices that need connecting (joystick, VR headset, rudder pedals, PCL). What would be the best way to go about this, considering that I don't want to lose data being sent back to the computer over a long distance? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 23 Nov 2020 08:17 AM PST I need help. I am trying to go through and organize all my electronic cords but I have no clue what this one might go to. Any suggestions would be great. It does not plug into the wall instead it seems like maybe an extension piece. It has one straight prong (looks like one of the wall outlet prongs) and then next to it a prong that looks like a pen tip. The other end of the cord fits those two prongs and then has a clasp that closes down and locks it when I attach the ends together. The identification markings are KunShan Electrinic Co. Ltd C(UL) NISPT-1 18AWGX2C 105 degree C 300V FT2 -LF- [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 23 Nov 2020 07:41 AM PST So this has been a bit of a headscratcher for me, and I could use some assistance. I had wanted to create two cold-storage drives to make backups of mine and my wife's computers, so I bought two 4TB drives and two USB enclosures to use for the purpose. The two computers they are hooked to are completely different; one is an AMD Ryzen 7 2700x and the other is an i7-4770k, both running Windows 10. For both drives I initialized the drives as GPT with a single partition, then the first go-around I set Bitlocker to only encrypt as needed. We started trying to transfer files from our internal drives to the USB drive, but within 5 minutes we would get a "Semaphore timeout has expired" error. I thought maybe Malwarebytes was the issue so I disabled that, and still no go. For the next attempt, I reformatted the drive on the Ryzen a second time, and this time set bitlocker for the whole drive up front (took forever). Once that was done I once again tried to transfer files... and again within 5 minutes got the Semaphore expired error. I've never run into this before, so I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on what I could try next. Thanks! [link] [comments] |
| Basemark Web 3.0 result iPhone 12? Posted: 23 Nov 2020 07:04 AM PST Can someone with a fast internet connection please do the Basemark Web 3.0 test on the iPhone 12? I have searched in reviews for the results of this test, but I could not find the Basemark Web 3.0 result. [link] [comments] |
| Internet malfunction that makes 0 sense Posted: 23 Nov 2020 06:00 AM PST Hello folks. For the past few months I've been having the most bizarre connection issue. My router is placed in my living room and works fine most of the time. However, there is a corridor right next to it, and whenever someone passes through it, or just stands there -POOF- Internet drops. At first i thought this could be Wi-Fi related, as it happens to everyone in the house using phones or in their laptops. This is not the case, as it is also happening with my PC, i which i use a TP-Link Passthrough Powerline to have access to Ethernet, it drops as well! I've been using this powerline for a few months without a problem before the issue appeared randomly, so I don't think this is related to it. I've looked online - no answers. I also asked friends who know about this stuff and everyone seems to think this is impossible. We tested it thorougly with my brother - it happens 100% of the time someone passes. I'm hopeless at this point, anyone got any ideas? [link] [comments] |
