This reminds me of the stupid Gigabyte RGB software…

Not sure if this is till the case, but for a long time the kernel driver had a known unpatched security vulnerability. And uninstalling the software did not remove the kernel files, so now your system is vulnerable until you reinstall Windows…

And I fully expect some kernel level Anti-Cheat to be no better in this regard.

I’ve been experimenting recently and while most games run fine and VRR & HDR & Multimonitor somewhat work after some experimenting & tweaks I still have problems with a few games.

Some recent examples would be Noita stuttering and running in slow motion. Getting anything from Ubisoft running (when it does run it runs great though). And modding is very hit & miss.

If Dual Boot with windows (especially if running Bitlocker) wasn’t such a PITA I would likely use Linux as my main OS.

In fact Linux is the superior version of Factorio, since you get to have asynchronous saves that don’t pause the game

I’ve been playing Elden Ring with the Seamless Co-op mod with a few friends, it’s been a blast so far.

You can do the same on Windows (mount ssh shares), there is an Fuse like project for Windows: WinFsp.

I picked up Starsector again this weekend and having a blast with a modded playthrough.

“Allows” You have to add/change a registry key, so it’s not like this is an option Microsoft wants normal users to have.

Really? It hasn’t been reset for me once, I wonder why I’m not affected.

You could just make a backup of the registry key and install it again in a few clicks .

I wish, but multiple Laptops with unavailable drivers, barely working trackpads, sleep issues and a few other annoyances tell me it isn’t always as easy.

I haven’t found many systems that Windows doesn’t run

I disabled that realy quickly… If I wanted to search the Web I would use a browser. I can only recomment that, it speeds up search a lot and it now actualy works as one would expect

Do you know what model AiO you have? Some models report pump speeds as higher since they have multiple magnets triggering the RPM sensor, so the 1600 might actually be 800 or even 400, which is way too low for the pump.

I would try setting the pump (and AiO fan) to 100% speed in the Bios for testing. Some pumps work well with a fan curve, some don’t.

Edit with more technical details: Normally each revolution should generate 2 Pulses on the rpm Feedback wire. But Pumps don’t always follow this spec so might over or underreport their actual rpm.

Thing is you can have a single page app that still works with middle click, depending on the framework it’s mostly automatic or some config for the router.

At least that’s what I can say from my experience building a single page app, but considering I’m using new tabs extensively I did have some bias to make it work.
