can someone tell me if the most recent NVIDIA driver update has just been buggy as shit? I've gotten half a dozen graphics driver-related BSODs in the last three days, after the most recent Windows 10 update (they've been either VIDEO_DXGKRNEL_FATAL_ERROR, VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE, or DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE).
each time it restarts from a blue screen, it will stall indefinitely on the Dell logo until I manually shut it down myself with with the power button and restart it, after which it will restart as normal. (if I'm restarting it for non-BSOD reasons, it boots up as normal) all the diagnostics say there are no hardware issues (other than my dying battery). everything is up-to-date. I have reinstalled the NVIDIA drivers from the Dell website. I have been in touch with tech support, and the advice was 'do a hard reset, wait, see if the issue persists' when all I want is a 'yes' or a 'no' as to whether a lot of other people are experiencing similar graphics driver issues.

Dell
New Post has been published on https://bankakredin.com/what-is-dell-what-you-need-to-know-about-dell-computer/
Dell
What is Dell? What you need to know about Dell Computer
Dell
Dell is a US-based global technology company that provides research and development, manufacturing, sales and after-sales support services in the field of personal computers and computer products.
As a global computer supplier, Dell manufactures and sells network components, peripherals, cameras, printers, servers, pocket computers, data storage hardware and software, apart from personal computers.
Since its establishment, Dell has focused on manufacturing and selling hardware components. In 2009, it started to offer Information Technologies ( IT ) services. The company, which is on the Fortune 500 list, was ranked 51st until 2014. It later rose to 34th place. Dell expanded its market share in 2021, moving up to 3rd place in PC unit sales statistics. The first two on the list are HP and Lenovo .
Dell History
Dell was founded in 1984 by Michael Dell as PC’s Limited . Micheal Dell, who continues his education at the University of Texas, has determined the headquarters of his company as a dormitory room. Selling customized upgrade components for IBM PCs, Dell dropped out of school the same year to focus on his company.
In 1985 Dell developed and released its first computer, the Turbo PC.
PC’s Limited has created a dynamic infrastructure for after-sales support (customer support) in accordance with the company policy. PC’s Limited, which achieved great success with the business model it created, took its new name as Dell Corporation in 1988. The public offering of Dell Corporation was also held in the same year.
In 1989, Dell introduced the company’s first laptop as the 316LT. As of this date, the company anticipated the development of laptop technology and focused on this field in its R&D studies. As a result of his work, he developed the first color laptops in 1991 and the long-lasting “ lithium-ion battery ” technology in 1994.
Dell Corporation, which started online computer sales services in 1996, never gave up on customer support. In the same year, it started to provide online support services to its customers. The company achieved its first big success through its online sales channel, and in 1999 it surpassed Compaq Computer Corporation, the largest US computer vendor. In the same year, it acquired ConvergeNet Technologies to provide enterprise storage system services.
Not wanting to be limited to computer systems in the technology market, Dell expanded its product range in 2002 to PDA, digital music player, television and
It also included product groups such as printers. Considering that the current name has limitations in terms of the company’s development policy, in 2003 the company’s name was changed again to Dell Inc.
In 2015, Dell acquired US-based EMC , which operates in data storage, for $60 billion. This acquisition was the largest technology deal to date. Following this acquisition in 2015, Dell Inc. was renamed Dell Technologies on September 7, 2016.
Dell Technologies Products
Extending beyond personal computer manufacturing, Dell Technologies’ product range is extensive. The main purpose of the company’s name to be covered by “technology” is to provide services for different areas of technology. By acquiring more than 16 companies operating in the global technology market, Dell has ensured that its product portfolio is not dependent on computers. This breakthrough helped Dell adapt to the change in the technology market.

Let’s talk about Congo.
TW:: Mentions of R*pe, m*rder, etc!!
Basically, if you don’t know: The people of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (Or the DRC) has been suffering due to big tech companies like Apple, Alphabet Inc., Google, Dell, Microsoft and Tesla. They have been exploiting Congo’s land for their minerals like Diamonds, Gold, Copper, Cobalt, Tin, Tantalum and Lithium. These companies use these minerals to make phones, cars, computers and other technology.
The people of Congo are being treated like dirt, like they worth less than the colonizers stealing from them. The colonizers, which they call ‘Rebels’ have been r*ping, killing brutally, enslaving, and starving them. They are being kicked out of their land because these big tech companies want it. They’re being killed and r*ped because these big tech companies think they have the right.
This isn’t right!! So research what’s going on, tell others, spread awareness. Look up what companies are exploiting Congo and boycott. Don’t buy their stuff, keep using your phone or laptop until it’s broken and unusable.
If you want to know more about it: use this website
If you want to donate: Use these websites!!
Reblog this
spread awareness!!

OK- Here me out-
my daily driver is a 2006 dell, the first version of arch came out in 2002.. my computer should be able to support it without the use of a vm..
I have a spare hdd that I could install it on (although I think I have linux mint installed on it rn) and plenty of cds I could burn the ISO to. I could very easily make this work.

SPOILERS for all of TMA & up to TMAGP 7.
Folks, pictured above is a Gateway 2000. This model of computer can: (a) support Windows NT 4.0, the business-focused predecessor to Windows 95, and (b) is manufactured by a brand that started on a cattle farm, thus conceptually connecting it to Good Cows. As such, I posit that Norris— who is definitely at least part of what is left our beloved Martin K. (the K. stands for Knife) Blackwood— is currently hosted by one of these babies. Thoughts?

My TF2 Morden AU
Here is another instalment of my TF2 Alternate Universes, todays AU is about if the mercenaries lived in the 21st century in todays society, info is under the cut snd i hope you like it 😋
First we have the Mercenaries who aren't Mercenaries -
Scout - Scout who is named Jeremy Fast was born in 1996 making his 28 and he is a high school PE teacher for the boys, he is a good PE teacher but he been in trouble with the school a few times after parents complain that he's been flirting with the high school girl all between 13 - 16, he grew up with his single mom and his 8 half brothers and he is the youngest of the brothers, he's not sure who his dad was when he was younger but then he found out when he was 18 from his mom that his dad was a guy from france who met Jeremy's mom at the bar she works at while on a buisness trip, they then hit it off, had a one night stand then scout's mom had Jeremy, Jeremy's dad then disappeared after Jeremy was born but he still kept in contact with Jeremy's mom for child support, the only issue Jeremy has is that he can't seem to get a girlfriend, he went though dating apps, went out public areas like bars and concerts and even ask woman if they were single but nothing worked making him feel depressed that he can't get anyone to love him, another issue is that he has ADHD so he struggles to socialise full time and gets easily distracted, lastly, he's uses TikTok a lot to make random videos and he is a little popular on the platform but still can't get a girl to like him.
Soldier - Soldier who is named John Dow was born in 1979 making him 45 years old, he is a ex-military man who got let go from the military after being mentally unstable to be in the military, he found out from the military after being in it for 15 years that he has undiagnosed asperger's which was the reason the military had to let him go, John didn't want to be let go as he was used to being in the military for so long and he had nobody to go to as he was a orphan since he was 2 but he now on his own for a while with a single apartment that he bought with his veteran pension, he was also accepted to have a service dog for his asperger's and he ends up having a yorkshire terrier named Squibbs (This is based on my late yorkie with the same name and i just think it's funny seeing Soldier having a small dog like a yorkie as a service dog), the apartment he lives in also introduced him to his opposite neighbour named Dell and John is now having a sexual crisis as he has romantic feeling for Dell.

Hi there! Bit of a weird question, and I’m not sure if this is the right blog for this, but… best laptop for privacy? I’m going to go to uni in a year and my parents have said that they’re going to buy me a laptop, which is awesome, except— I don’t know which one to chose? I’ve never had a laptop before but I try to take being private online as seriously as I can, and so I don’t really care… well, like, I do care that the laptop has good storage and works and stuff, but I care mostly about how private it is. Which one supports adding privacy-related stuff the best? Which one steals your data the least? I… am actually not sure what kind of questions I should be asking, since… again, never had a laptop before, and I don’t know what about its make makes it private (other than like general online privacy practices across all devices), so I was just wondering if you had any recommendations for me? Tldr: don’t care about fancy features, just want a laptop that more or less works, but would love privacy to be the main focus. This can sort of come at the expense of convenience - I don’t care it if’s harder to set up, use, etc., so long as I can connect to the internet with it.
So the hardware is pretty agnostic on this, the place where privacy is going to become an issue is in the software.
Windows loves to track you and send your data back to homebase; Apple is a walled garden that doesn't let people get deep into configurations; linux is intimidating for a lot of people.
Your actual best bet on privacy would be to get a laptop with no OS and install a linux distro on it, but it sounds like that's probably not something that's terribly approachable for you. So in that case I'd recommend getting a Windows laptop (mac prices aren't worth it) and going through this list to change the settings to ensure better privacy.
HOWEVER please note that you should be getting a laptop with a full OS. Windows has an option for "windows 11s" or "windows 10s" and first off you should be going with 11 at this point but second that "s" means that there are pretty strict limitations on what you can do as a user in terms of configuration and installation.
If you are willing to pay a bit more for Windows 11 Pro instead of windows 11 Home, the pro license cuts off some of the more annoying tracking that Windows does automatically, but I'd say you're better off simply getting the home license and really digging into the settings and getting to know it and setting it up for yourself.
BUT if it's at all possible, honestly I'd say get a bare metal laptop (that means it's just the hardware, no software, you need to install an operating system before you do anything) and install linux. HOWEVER keep in mind that there are some significant downsides to using linux as a student, mostly that you'll likely run into software at some point that you won't be able to install. Also if you're not already pretty good with computers it can be difficult to keep a linux machine running (but very easy to make it private; that's the tradeoff - you can make it more secure more easily, but you really have to know how to fix your own computer if something goes wrong.)
For your situation, again, I think a Windows 11 Home laptop with the settings adjusted is your best bet.
Absolutely positively don't get a chromebook (you've got no control of the settings on a chromebook and the thing is made to feed information to google) and don't get a mac (you can get better specs on a PC at a lower cost).
For an idea of budget on this, I'd say you can probably get something from Dell, Lenovo, or HP for around $650-1000 dollars that's got decent specs (12th gen or newer i5 processor, 16gb RAM, 512GB SSD) and maybe something more like $500-800 from acer, asus, or samsung. Whatever computer you end up getting, you should get the added drop protection warranty because that means the manufacturer will fix your laptop if you drop it, something that is a bigger deal for college students than most people (because of your environment you're more likely to end up with drop damage than a lot of people AND because you're a college student you probably won't be able to afford to fix or replace the computer)
Good luck!

I just wanted to know what kind of computer hardware you liked... 👉👈
The answer to that is "yes".
I'm not a fan of supermicro. I prefer Dell over HPE, but only because the support from Dell is more streamlined. Intel has fallen off and had some major issues, AMD has shown great reliability and better threaded performance. Nvidia owns the entire gpu market so it's not even a fair competition. I prefer my racks to be the deep and wide variety. 750x1200 mm. Makes working in them much easier. I'm just barely too short to reach a top of rack network connection in the 48U height, so while the extra height is nice, I prefer 42U.

So Dell support called me back about my computer and they want to charge me $200 to replace the screen.
Now there is a ding in the screen. There's a bit that's brighter than the rest. It's been there since I got it and it doesn't bug me. When I asked if that was related to the noise it was making, the dude said they weren't going to do the warranty work until they'd replaced the screen.
So... they're holding it hostage.
We went back and forth on this for a few minutes and it seems like they don't even know what was making the noise and don't want to investigate until they've charged me to replace the bit that works just fine. If I don't want them to do that they can ship it back to me as-is, still making the noise they will never bother looking into. I said I would be calling the BBB and the guy then relented and told me he'll ask if they can fix the noise without replacing the screen.
If they'd fixed the noise first and then said, hey, for $200 we'll replace your screen, too, I'd've been happy to pay it. Now I will cling to that broken screen like it's my own liver.
Am I being a Karen?

the creepiest thing that happened to me recently: i had to deal with Dell customer support for my new laptop.
i go to their website, and it already knows what my computer is without me having to sign in anywhere or put my information in. okay, a bit unnerving, but it makes sense that it can get that info without being too invasive. most basic website analytics can tell what device is pinging them.
well, their online robot customer support is shit, so after searching around (they make it really hard to find) i decided to just call in and ask a human person about the problem.
now. here's where it gets weird. i had left my phone in my room and couldn't be bothered to go get it, so i used my mom's phone, since she was sitting next to me.
the robot that answers me tells me, before i can even say anything, that it can see that i've got a support ticket open, and lists the ticket number i can see on my computer screen. once again, i made this ticket as a guest, i didn't log in or anything. i would have been creeped out if it knew MY phone was connected. but my MOM'S phone was not in any way linked to the purchase or use of my computer. the ONLY way i can think of that they would know it was the same person calling that made the support ticket was a) gps bullshit, since she was sitting next to me while i was making the ticket, or b) phone data bullshit where they could see that my mom's phone is regularly nearby my phone.
either way i am creeped the hell out and i would like to get off this spyware ride please.
#anyway they didnt even fucking help#their customer support is shit they just told me to pay $99 for the premium support#or w/e its called
