2024 is about 75% done. Let's recommend the best games of 2024, but with a twist: only the ones with no paid DLC! in c/games@lemmy.world

Thank you for pointing that out! I always thought it looked interesting, but somehow thought that it was only available on Steam - and my PC is not up to the task. Just bought it for the PS5.

Somewhat boringly, the archaeologists posit that the bones may have been associated with cult practices.

Sometimes I wonder what archaeologists a few millennia down the line will think about small polymer statuettes of human females with disproportionately large breasts, but without discernible genitalia...

They are, however, aces at reiterating the problem.

Why are people with kids always so triggered by child free people? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

They might be at 'evangelically' child free folks.

German Lutheran. We don't go for strong feelings.

For sure. I think if I had to fly these days, I would feel vaguely uneasy if I ended up in a Boeing.

Using ad blockers is theft (lemmy.sdf.org)
 

Most free web sites pay for their upkeep with ads. It has been an unwritten agreement since forever (or at least as long as there have been ads on the web) that if you consume the content, you pay the creator by looking at the ads on their site.

Consuming the content without looking at the ads is like shoplifting because you don't like the way a store's checkout counter works and/or the fact that they want money from you at all.

Power Button Cable failure reported after moving Dell XPS 8930 to a new case (lemmy.sdf.org)
 

The power supply on my XPS 8930 gave up the ghost, so I replaced it with a Corsair CX750M (probably not relevant).

While I was at it, I also replaced the case with a Thermaltake CTE T500 (probably relevant).

I connected the power switch to pins 6 and 8 on the front panel connector, following the diagram at XPS 8930, GPU and CPU Liquid Cooler, PSU, Case Swap, Upgrade.

Things work as expected: I can power the computer on and off with the power button, all cool.

BUT: Every time the computer boots, I get an error message from SupportAssist during POST: "[...] Alert! Power Button Cable failure". I click Continue, and everything is peachy.

Does anyone know how I can get rid of this message? Did the power button in the original case know some secret handshake that the new one doesn't?

At this point, I would be OK with disabling the SupportAssist self check altogether. I don't need any SupportAssistance to know that the machine is getting a little cranky.
