Project to charge an old server UPS using a Solar Panel - Possible?
bald_pig replied to TwistedHelixis's topic in Other Stuff
What's the end goal? It would be fairly trivial to charge the batteries directly from the solar panel, but you would need a very bright day, as you actually need about 14v to charge a 12v lead acid battery. I wouldn't bother with an inverter, as @hallb15 said, the losses from inverting 12v dc to 240v ac, only to go back to 12v dc is wasteful. Of course, I'd only recommend doing this if you are competent with electronics, as boiled or shorted batteries are not fun! -
Could someone send me Sibelius Ultimate Licence server please

You can download it from your Avid master account. -
IP Scanners.. Do they just ping?
bald_pig replied to abillybob's topic in Network and Classroom Management
Most scanners will just ping, more advanced ones are available. Why are you manually deleting dhcp leases? The whole point of DHCP is to automatically assign and release ip addresses, if you need to go in and delete things to make space then you've set it up wrong. -
I recommend one of these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dusters-CompuCleaner-Original-Electric-Duster/dp/B073F9NY1X/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=pc+duster&qid=1560516020&s=officeproduct&sr=1-4

That's usually a driver issue, with the image missing a driver that's required.

Steam is the drm, so I don't think this will work.
-
It's made by a Google team, I have no idea why they released it on Steam only!
-
Steam for education is here: Learn With Portals Otherwise you are making a steam account for each machine...

You'll have to start looking at the log to see what is and isn't being copied then I'm afraid.

I always use the built-in conversion/compression tool, in the info section of the File menu. Never had an issue.

Lenovo it's the other way round, the Ryzen machines seem to be going up in price though
-
I've never had a problem with Powerpoint, I'm still recommending it. What problems have you had with Powerpoint? Maybe that's a better solution.

Not being funny, anything on spinning rust is painfully slow compared to SSD drives. Also heads up, both are SATA drives, you're looking for SSD vs HDD.

I mean, you can get a Ryzen 5 machine for the price of an i3 unit now, I'd say it's already here, in fact, there are articles saying that the Ryzen usage in business has increased to cover the Intel shortages, so they are well on their way.

That would have the opposite effect, robocopy would show a larger file size than treesize As for the script, /S would be redundant, as /E is also copying subfolders. I think the issue is /MOV as opposed to /MOVE Have you checked to see if any subfolders are empty or not?

If the price is good, I'll be tempted, my pc is due an upgrade, every other gen

still not £1000, and still not 8k 120Hz...

Depending on how many there are, it might be worth setting up deploystudio to image them all.
-
You confirmed nothing, we were speculating at the implementation, you posted the thing that started the discussion and speculation. It could well be just a page file, but I hope it is something more than that, they seem to want to eliminate as many unnecessary read/writes as possible.

I've never seen a parents evening presentation that didn't have a proper microphone setup on the lecturn. If anything, sound would be easier because 99% of the time there is an existing audio setup being used during a presentation.

Well, yes. We're discussing Project Scarlett's use of SSD as virtual RAM in a thread about Project Scarlett. I don't quite get the point you're trying to make here.

Yeah, found it easily as well, you don't get many furry rocks with eyes! -
They are/will be, and also on game pass for pc, which is £4 a month, with a £1 a month trial at the moment.
-
The whole point is zero loading time, so I'd expect full SSD, it's not that big a cost these days. The virtual ram thing, I wonder if they are somehow mapping SSD storage as RAM, to eliminate having to wait while loading stuff in and out of memory

Master Chief Collection will be available on PC and Xbox one now, so no reason to not catch up!
