I’ve got a Lexmark laser printer, and while there are cheaper subscription toners, you can pay the higher price for normal toner, and buy compatibles, for now at least.

Maybe the board thought the CPU fan was cooked and it was preventing a boot for safety? I’ve never seen anything like that safety speaking, but I could believe it exists.

I’ve owned and worked on computers that have that as a safety feature. If the CPU fan wasn’t connected or wasn’t working, they wouldn’t boot. They would usually have a beep code to let you know, but that’s assuming that there’s a motherboard speaker and it’s working.

A shorted fan would probably trigger it, as they would usually use the third cable on the fan connector to measure the rpm and check that the fan was spinning 👍

Typical, I’ve just spent several hours over the last few days downloading everything manually 😫

If it makes you feel any better, I did something just as infuriating a few years ago.

I had set up my home media server, and had finally moved it to my garage with just a power cable and ethernet cable plugged in. Everything was working perfectly, but I needed to check something with the network settings. Being quite new to Linux, I used a remote desktop tool to log in and do everything through a gui.

I accidentally clicked the wrong item in the menu and disconnected the network. I only had a spare ps/2 keyboard and mouse, and as the server was an old computer, it would crash if I plugged a ps/2 device in while it was running*.

The remote desktop stayed open but frozen, mocking me for my obvious mistake and lack of planning, with the remote mouse icon stuck in place on the disconnect menu.

*I can’t remember if that was a ps/2 thing, or something specific to my server, but I didn’t want to risk it

That’s good to know, thanks :)

I’ve got a few services running on my aging media server, so I want to start doing it properly, and getting a proper home sever going. I’ve used ssh for some of the basics in the past, but I need to start using that more too :)

Thank you 🙂

aeharding, the Voyager developer, has said that they’re working on a fix, so hopefully it will be sorted soon. I’ve updated the post to reflect that 🙂

Yes, sorry. I woke up in the middle of the night, but apparently my brain didn’t…

I’ll correct it now 👍

Briar is the one that was mentioned a lot when the protests were happening in Hong Kong, if that helps 👍

I’ve only just set it up, mainly for the facial recognition. I had no idea that it could do that type of search too. It’s going to be really helpful with my faulty brain and not remembering words 🙂

That would be brilliant, thank you :)

I meant to open an issue this morning, but haven’t had any time to myself today. db0 raised these issues for Tesseract, if that helps:

Thanks again :)

My PC looks like ultrahamster’s too, so still quite big. In the comments, the emojis are a bit smaller, but still bigger than the regular ones. I’m not getting anyhting like the issues from TherapyGary’s Raccoon screenshot though, so that might be a separate issue.

I’ve just quickly checked using the Tesseract site, and the emojis there are pretty much the same size as standard, and nothing like any of our screenshots.

I’ll let the admin know on dbzer0 and point them to this thread. Hopefully we can figure out the problem :)

I missed that one, thanks for the link 🙂

The team are helpful too, and helped me with a question when I set it up 🙂

If it’s anything like my server, it’s in the same room, but only connected to the power and network. You can open and close the drive, but it doesn’t have a keyboard, mouse, or monitor 👍

Hasn’t qBittorrent got an indexer column? I’m not home to check, but I’m sure I’ve got that set up

I’ve found the file in one of my backups. It’s a Windows batch file, so you’d need to save it as a .bat file. The contents are:

@echo off

for %%a in (.) do (

md “%%~na” 2>nul

move “%%a” “%%~na”

)

but, I searched online first, and a lot of people now are saying to use FileBot instead, as it gives you more options:

If your movies are just in one big folder, there’s a Windows batch file out there called file2folder.bat

I used to have a copy, and it just takes the name of every file, creates a folder with the same name, and puts the file into it. Instead of something like c:\movies\batman.mp4 for example, you end up with c:\movies\batman\batman.mp4 which is something that Radarr can work with.

You’ll probably still need to do some tidying up and matching, but from what I remember, it’s a lot easier :)

Yes, that’s what it does by default. The problem happens when you open a new tab to search for something, for example, and the update screen and restart distract you and you forget what you were going to search for. It’s like the feeling you get when you walk into a room and can’t remember why.

Mint, it just works.

You can set up automatic updates too, so they won’t end up with out of date software and possible security holes. The only downside is Firefox. If an update runs while your grandparents are using Firefox, it will stop working and show them a page that says it needs to be restarted.

It’s not a major issue in itself, but if you have any sort of memory issues, like I do and lots of older people do, it can derail your train of thought and cause you problems.

I bought myself a copy of Neat Image a few weeks ago for noise reduction, and it works really well on Windows. I haven’t had a chance to test the Linux version yet. I think it’s proprietary, but like you say, there’s not much else out there.

There’s a free demo if you want to try it
