The problem with this sort of product is that they usually claim it damages your eyes. Which is BS. The circadian rhythm stuff is plausible but like others stated all devices have built in blue light reduction. I see how if someone doesn't take care of those glasses and scratches them they could...

I uninstalled NVCleanstall and installed the driver from the executable. After this the control panel is working again. If i disable the "Nvidia Display Container LS" service the tray icon disappears and i can't run the control panel until i enable ti again. The strange thing is that the...

Is anybody using NVCleanstall able to access the control panel installed from the Windows Store? If i have the "Nvidia Display Container LS" service running the icon shows up but the app immediately exists after launch. If i have it disabled not even the tray icon shows up. Also i installed this...

I force installed 2004 to play with WSL2 and in my experience the conversion was not automatic. I had to manually install the kernel (you get the link when trying to convert the image. This is only for the first time, afterwards it updates trough windows update ) and then i had to tell it to...

I was not contradicting this. I was only stating that the perception that this is a new thing is spread by a lot of articles.

I use a Logitech K380 and i can toggle Fn Lock from the software. If afterwards i kill the process, the Fn Lock sticks (although i no longer am able to use the Fn key for some reason). I interpret this as a device level change not as something done trough a hook. If Logitech can do this one...

I think in this update they added a couple of new kamojis. But a lot of articles say they added the Win + . shortcut. The biggest thing is the addition of WSL 2 In my opinion. :)

I wonder if the Fn can be swapped around with the Ctrl, like on ThinkPads. I'm sure I would never get used to that weird placement. It would be nice to be able to do that from the keyboard, independent of OS. As I plan to use it with a PC and a Raspberry PI. Anyway, I'm looking forward to...

I don't really see the difference between pressing the win key and typing and this. Also, while quick launch was active the CPU oscillated between 0 and ~50% every 4 seconds. The graph looked like a comb. I guess it was indexing files but the files should have been indexed by Windows search...

I remember seeing a documentary about UL or TUV and the testing was very thorough. They tested products to destruction, hitting them with all sorts of contraptions, burning them to a crisp and other kinds of physical testing. I presumed they would test other aspects of the product too. Anyway...

Aren't those TUV, UL, FCC, CE markings present on all electronics supposed to mean this kind of stuff does not happen? I presume those certifications have a emphasis on testing for harm done by the product not to the product. But isn't a lack of shielding also a interference potential to other...

I understood that. But i was just stating the obvious just in case he missed that setting under "Change resolution". I know i sometimes miss obvious thing because i look at the granular settings first. Also having the full/limited dynamic range setting change on me i know that things can seem...

Are the settings under "Change resolution" correct? I don't see why the nvida driver would individually influence software if the main setting is correctly set. That sounds more like a setting in Firefox or in a codec. Is the video in Firefox HTML5 or flash? Anyway, there are two places that...

That's interesting. My monitor defaults to limited dynamic range after driver install but the color depth is correctly set to 32-bit and the format to RGB. So they try to do some detecting of what are the capabilities of the connected display. The problem is they suck at it. :)

The Fast v-sync showed up for me too with a 960. Previously the help underneath the v-sync setting mentioned "Fast" but it was not present in the list. I did not notice any issues with video playback in YouTube like someone mentioned. But one still has to change the dynamic range of the monitor...
