It's an older PC, a P4 I use as a radio streamer mostly, so the install is x86.

The problem is, audio seems to play back faster. I have it set up to boot up the streaming application after boot (Tuner, about 20 seconds after boot since it uses a spinning IDE HDD, so the rig is slow on boot) and sometimes (rarely) everything will be fine, the playback speed will be fine. But, most of the time, the audio plays back faster. In some rare cases, I've also noticed it can play slower as well. Also, if the audio is fine after Tuner starts and you change radio streams, back to square one, it starts playing the audio faster.

I tried running other applications, like VLC and Audacious to see if the same thing is happening in them. Yep, the same thing. I still haven't tried Winamp with wine.

I still use PulseAudio on that rig. I didn't see a reason to switch since it did it's job, I don't really need anything fancy on it, just a workable audio out was all I needed.

Also, I have no idea when thi

Arrr, me hearty! Ye be askin' for a simple piece o' code in Rust, peppered with pirate comments. Here be a wee program that prints a hearty greeting:

 undefined

        fn main() {
        // Avast, me hearties! We start our voyage here.
        let greeting = "Ahoy, matey! Welcome aboard!";
    
        // Yo ho ho! We print our greeting to the open sea!
      println!("{}", greeting);
    }


  

Now ye be havin' a taste o' pirate-infused Rust code! If ye be havin' any more requests or need further assistance, feel free to speak up, and I'll be at yer service!

This platform could be a viable alternative for forums (cuz we know in which state they currently are), but the lack of general attachments (any mime/file type) is what I believe stands in the way. I have an electronics forum I run (a local one, nothing too serious) and I believe Lemmy can make it more intereactive (not die out) because people from all over the world will get the feed and not just people that are online on the forum at that time.

Still, we frequently exchange PDFs, schematics (not always in image form), archives, etc., which makes Lemmy useless if there are no plans to implement something like this, even if disabled by default.

So, are there plans for anything like this being implemented?

At first, I thought it was just a temporary glitch or something, but a few days pass and I still can't comment from any if my accounts (I have 5, 2 are on this instance). And I think it's only exclusive to the Main community, not any other community... the weird thing is, I tried from 4 accounts, the 2 on this instance and another 2, none of them can comment. In particular, I wanted to reply after this comment.

Every time it just returns a "language_not_allowed" error. This in Jerboa, I haven't tried commenting from the web UI.

EDIT: Now this is interesting. I'm in the web UI now and if I follow the link I shared in this post, it says it's a KBin instance and asks for my login credentials. I noticed there is something funky with the URL and I really have no idea how I'm following this community through KBin 🤨.

EDIT2: OK, I pinpointed the problem. The link to the reply leads to KBin because the reply is from a KBin

Not really networking related (kinda... sorta...), but just had to share it. I think his granma did it 😂.

Thinking about calling her on my next networking gig, lol 😂.

This is a (quite long, LOL :D) tutorial I wrote on the subject and I believe it covers most user scenarios, so it uses safe methods (known to work in generic scenarios, when the printer's manufacturer and model are unknown). I also tried to write it as plain (simple) as I possibly could, so that even regular users (users that are not tech wizards, but can find their way around a computer and can probably install a distro like Ubuntu on a PC) can configure the Linux print server and add the shared printer on a Windows install.

You can download the tutorial in PDF and DOC from here or here. Also, here are the plain (unarchived) PDF and DOC files.

I hope this tutorial helps users that have given up using their old (but working) printers, just because they don't have x64 (64-bit) Windows

Unfortunately, this printer doesn't have support for x64/64-bit Windows OSes (only x86/32-bit Windows drivers), but the Xerox Phaser 3117 does, so you can use the 3117's drivers on any x64 Windows OS :) (Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10, 11). You can download the drivers from the following links: Download, Mirror.

I've also included a PDF/DOC that explains in detail how to install the drivers, so that the printer works. Follow them exactly as they are written and the printer should work ;).

I did this fix a few weeks ago and thought I'd share it :). There are sites from where you can download the appropriate files and dumps, but here is everything in one place.

This tutorial requires you to be handy with a screwdriver and a soldering iron (the patch is in hardware), so it's not for literally everyone. If you're somewhat tech savvy and know your way with a soldering iron, you can try this tutorial :).

The beauty of this hardware patch is that it works with any version of the firmware on the Xerox Phaser 3100MFP, regardless of the input/output ports as well. But, just in case, I've also included the patched versions of the firmwares in the archive (2.07t and 3.01). You can upgrade the firmware via FTP or with the Xerox Companion Suite. My version of the printer didn't have an Ethernet port, so I had to use the Xerox Companion Suite, which didn't work on Windows 10... maybe I should've tried on Windows Vista or 7 (the suite is intended to be used on Vista), but thought

Exactly what the title says. I'm not a native English speaker, so almost everything regarding auto-correct and word suggestions is turned off, except for grammar and speeling checks, that is set to underline. Underlining works in every other app, except Jerboa. Why is that?
