zhangm and one other reacted to yepp for a topic
BREAKING NEWS - FOR ALL WINDOWS 10 MOBILE LOVERS LIKE ME😜 Here's how to install Instagram v42.0.2.0 on W10M💙 1. On W10M go to Settings and enable the Developer Mode: Settings -> Update and Security -> For developers -> Developer mode 2. From your PC, go to the following website which allows you to discover and download the file package directly from the Microsoft Store: https://store.rg-adguard.net/ as "URL link" put this URL: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/instagram/9nblggh5l9xt press the button on the right to get the download link. 3. Now you can download the .appxbundle file from the second link 4. Copy this file from your PC to your OneDrive so you can easily find it on your phone 5. Go to your phone, open OneDrive and download this file to your phone (for example, in the Download folder). 6. From your phone, open the "File explorer" app, go to the folder in which you have copied that file and launch it to start the installation. 7. Wait a few seconds and the Instagram app will be installed. If you open the Store app, you'll find it installed as Instagram version 42.0.2.0 😲, which is the latest version also available for PC ◾ It also works on W10M AU (14393.x) 😲 The app opens in landscape mode, but it works fine. It also supports the resuming from the suspended state! => Long life to W10M 🥂🍾2 points -

SpaceX Super Heavy and Starship updates
Emn1ty and one other reacted to Skiver for a topic
It's could be a pressure issue, perhaps the lower tank lost pressure rather than it just simply being structurally too week to support the weight from above. This is the point of the prototypes though, testing scenarios to make sure designs can stand up to all of the various scenarios. I'm sure all rockets have gone through similar stages of testing. I think this is a different issue to the previous failure so hopefully it's a case of fixing one issue and moving on to a new one.2 points -

hellowalkman reacted to dismuter for a topic
I know it feels like ages, but it won't even have been 5 years yet for desktop CPUs. Nevertheless, during the same time span from 2000 to 2005, on mainstream segment, we went from 1Ghz single-core 180nm 32-bit to 2.4Ghz dual-core 90nm 64-bit CPUs. Granted, we did also get the core doubling this time, but at the cost of significantly higher power consumption. Considering that they won't deliver 10nm or better for desktop until at least next year, it is still very humiliating for them. It's probably the worst humiliation they've ever had for their manufacturing capabilities.1 point -

I remember when the Envy HP's first came out. They were a BEAST. The 15in was one of the few machines that where, at the time, thin, and fit 2 drives for RAID. The 14in had an "amazing" 1600x900 Radiant display, which was VERY rarely in stock, and the cheaper panel looked like you were looking through a window screen. It was the ONLY time I liked the ENVY line.1 point -

How to fix Spinrite
Bankbuddy reacted to +Warwagon for a topic
How to fix Spinrite’s Division Overflow Error when scanning larger drives As some of you who use spinrite very frequently may have noticed, spinrite will usually crash when scanning larger drives (in my experiences it's been on drives over 640GB). Once spinrite gets to a certain point in the scan, it will throw up a red screen with a “Division Overflow Error'. This usually occurred over 50% into the scan depending on the size of the drive. After researching the error online, it appears that it’s not a problem with spinrite but an issue with the FreeDOS (MS-DOS) clone that Steve Gibson bundles with spinrite. To get around this issue, you have to create a bootable Disc or USB stick with MS-DOS instead of FreeDOS. To make things easy on you I’m going to walk you through how to make a bootable MS-DOS USB key with spinrite. (Since most computers can now boot from USB drives) First we are going to download a utility made by HP called “HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool”. This tool allows you to easily format a USB stick and turn it into MS-DOS bootable drive all at the same time. You can download it from here http://files.extreme.../file.php?f=197 Next we need the MSDOS files to go onto the stick. I would love to link you to the files needed but, Unfortunately Neowin would probably lock or delete my thread if I did. All I will tell you is to Google “How to Make a MS-DOS Bootable Flash Drive”. The first link should have the files you need. Next extract those files to the folder of your choice. Now open the HP USB Disk storage format tool (if you are on Vista or 7 run the application as administrator.) Select the usb drive you wish to use. Put a check in “quick format” and “Create a DOS start-up disc and using DOS system files located at. Now Click browse and find folder you extracted the MS-DOS files to. Now click start. That’s pretty much it, all you have to do now is take your spinrite.exe file and put a copy of it on the root of the usb stick you just formatted. Now let’s test it out. Put the usb stick in your computer, tell your computer to boot from the newly formatted usb device and once you are at a DOS prompt type “Spinrite” and press enter. If spinrite loads then get out of your chair and do the happy dance. If spinrite does not load, then you may have missed a step. Try it again. You'll eventually get to the happy dance!1 point
