@0xabad1dea Just install Linux, because that will get your mind off whatever problem you were trying to solve.
@mattblaze @0xabad1dea You'll get so many new, more interesting problems
-
@0xabad1dea FYI if it happens again, save a reboot and just restart the Windows Audio Endpoint Builder service. That'll probably sort it out. Had a machine that I needed to do that every login (for real... I ended up making a scheduled task do it as a part logging in)
@draeath it very specially only worked if rebooted *while the microphone was not plugged in* so I doubt restarting the service while the microphone was plugged in would have fixed it

Your headphones will work on Linux!
@mossyrua okay enjoy your block for being a creep

I clicked the audio troubleshooting button in Settings. It did not send me to the troubleshooter, but instead redirected me to install a help app. (yes, it wasn't even pre-installed.)
The help app told me to click the audio troubleshooter button.
Satya Nadella owes me three billion dollars in emotional damages.
(we've fixed the audio problem by unplugging the USB microphone and rebooting. before you @ me self-righteously about someone else's operating system which was chosen in accordance with THEIR needs and not mine and certainly not yours, consider whether I might react with the fury of ten thousand suns)
I have blocked two people tonight. One accused me out of the clear blue sky of being a child abuser for absolutely no apparent reason (no supporting evidence was provided). The other decided it’d be real funny to do the one thing that I specifically said would not be funny and would make me very angry.
Anyone else want to lose dog photo privileges? Maybe blame the invasion of Genghis Khan on me?

@0xabad1dea Gah, horrible randoms. I wish the block button could make the person unpleasantly itchy.

@0xabad1dea My Linux desktop in November 2025... Would not boot if my iPod 5 was connected. USB is weird.

Restarting the services is also annoying. The troubleshooting thing used to restart three services, which have to be shut down and come back up in the right order. You can do it manually, but if you get it wrong it’s easy to get into a state where they won’t exit.

@0xabad1dea the loss of dog photo privileges is an excellent punishment for posting crimes

@0xabad1dea Genghis Kahn rode into war on elephant cavalry smaller than your dog

@0xabad1dea how can you be suspected of being a child abuser without children?

@0xabad1dea About 20 years ago, I was at a conference at which a very prominent "free software" advocate who you've definitely heard of was in attendance. Someone, in the hallway, was talking how he liked his new noise-canceling headphones. The free software guy overheard this and started haranguing everyone about how headphones are proprietary and restrict freedom. Someone who had no idea who he was figured he was having some kind of breakdown and called hotel security.

@0xabad1dea@infosec.exchange For 25 years the Windows troubleshooters did nothing, then for a brief window they would automatically restart services and reset things to see if it fixed an issue.
Now they are back to being useless. -

@0xabad1dea @draeath Oh, I remember figuring out a thing or two where sequence was *critical* in logging in.
GOOD LUCK with it. -

@me for the record this is itself a weird response

@0xabad1dea best I can do is blame linking this on you.

@alsivx E non dimentichiamoci che Fionna & Cake ha il doppiaggio italiano disponibile solo in America per motivi sconosciuti, con una data ancora incerta. E non si sa perché non hanno deciso di includere Fionna & Cake sul HBO Max italiano mentre su Feisbuk e co non fanno altro che parlare di OHHHHHH IL KAVALIERE E I SETTE REGNI EEEEHH BELLOOOO
E ancora sto attendendo che rifanno il ripping con il doppiaggio italiano. Fanculo a Netflix, Warner Bros, MGM e tutti gli altri servizi.

@adriananselmo @vonblubba Una domanda: per caso avete paura che non si riaccenda più? Perché ho un S2 Plus che girava, ai tempi, con Jelly Bean e ora ha una CyanogenMod 12 (Android 5), che ho recuperato come sveglia ed è l'unico telefono che ho sempre tenuto acceso (si stanno gonfiando le batterie) la notte ma ogni tanto lo riavviavo, anche per refresh.

@alsivx nel senso che cercandolo su New Pipe mi restituisce il messaggio "contenuto non disponibile"
