I always kept my SSIDs split for each band as otherwise could never be sure. 2.4GHz is mostly for legacy devices and 5GHz for everything else. Though technically I only have 5GHz myself under separate VLAN ids (one for main and the other with Nintendo DNS blocking
Until recently all my devices only supported 2.4GHz. Are 4-5 year old devices really legacy already?
fitness related thing (if anyone caresā¦ lol) ā¦ i was wondering how i got to 220lbs and then i remembered how much Iāve been working out since i got here (200ish pushups a day on my arm days, leg days, a whole bunch of randomness) and wellā¦ here i am now
for reference, i was 205lbs before basic.
after i get to phase 2 in a weekish Iāll start doing the Thor workout and see how that goes
at the rate tech advances I guess they kinda are, though Iāve got 5 year old devices that are still 5GHz and work fine today.
Until I got the Motorola none of my devices even supported 5GHz, so for me itās quite new. Same with USB Type C (although I donāt understand why they bothered using it with the 2.0 standard and not just made all Type C compatible devices 3.0/3.1).
Type C is just a connector and still makes sense for devices that donāt require 3.0 speeds like peripherals and embedded devices because of the any side insertion making it rated for longer life. The only thing wrong with type C was the marketing around it and people thinking it was always 3.1 gen 2 if it has that connector.
That and the number of cables that donāt meet the specs. iirc there was some guy from Google who - in his spare time - tested USB Type C cables for their specs and a lot of them failed (some even being a fire hazard).
edit: apparently the problem is only with USB A to USB C.
Yes, the main problem is with ālegacy cablesā, Type-A plug to Type-C in particular. The Type-C specifications define the primary mechanism of how the consuming port (phone/tablet, or Upstream Facing Port, UFP) detects source capability.
If a standard C-C cable is used, the supplying port (Downstream Facing port, DFP) āadvertisesā its capability by using three different pull-up resistors on CC pin. If a 5V pull-up reference is used, these values are 56k, 22k, and 10k, for portās capability of 500mA, 1500mA, and 3000mA correspondingly. The CC wire propagates this information from DFP to the end of Type-C cable. The connected device (phone) will (should) detect this, and limit its consumption accordingly.
Now, what to do if you have only a legacy Type-A port on your host, as most PCs do? The Type-A does not have any extra pins like CC. The Type-C Specification suggests embedding this information into the Type-C end of the legacy A->C cable. Therefore, the āinformation channelā is broken now, and the phone will try to grab as much current as the pull-up resistor inside the Type-C overmold indicates, which is soldered by cableās manufacturer. Since the cable does not know which port you will plug it in, the safe cable pull-up should be 56k, otherwise the phone can try to suck 1.5A or even 3A from the cable. If the port is a regular USB, the requested cable power may vastly exceed portās capability. With cheap uncontrolled power delivery (some cheap PC mainboards connect the VBUS directly to internal +5VSTBY), it will cause system shutdown.
If the port is powerful enough, but the cable in use is skinny (Type-C cables can have as low as 28AWG on VBUS and GND wires) and the C-connector has wrong 10k pull-up, the cable might burn out and cause fire.
Good to know. And a good thing my motherboard has a USB Type C port on the back. So Iāll probably get a USB C to C cable. Charging my tablet via USB C to A is gonna take fucking long (over 7000mAh).
Do you know where I could find the 2016 bios to an msi gs63vr 6rf?
You would have to get the java edition
msi has all the things if you search that specific model. will be under the support page
oh well. still, $3 for minecraft lol
but it isnāt
MSI website is odd, have to find the second page, hiding in the first one lol
also why would you need it anyway
the 2018 one is newerā¦ and has improvements and etc

The laptop hasnāt run right since I updated the bios.
Have you tried updating it again? Or do you know that itās a bug introduced with that update?
All I know is its not as stable as it was when I got it pre update
tried a clear cmos? (Not just a bios setting reset)
shouldve anyway after a bios reset but often fixes issues with bios flashes that seem iffy
Arenāt there any other BIOS updates in between the ābadā update and the one youāre looking for?
