Esif_if kernel may be from the Intel® Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework Utility Application.
I can't find much about Esif_if kernel other than a file named esif_assist.exe
Do you know if you have that installed?

On another note -

Mind boggling advancements in AI and hardware.
And this is just the beginning.

Got this in my feed and had to share it. > https://youtu.be/9ykRV2OMPbE

Things are moving fast, too fast.

If you're young and bright, now (or yesterday) is the time to get involved with these new technologies.

I forget exactly what my co-worker asked it to write in VB6, but it did it quickly and well.

Something about code that would crunch data, create a folder and dump the data in, then sort it.

It seems to be very good with Visual Basic coding, possibly others, but not so good with some languages ...

Norm

Yes, this chatgpt is something to keep an eye on.
It's bound to get better and better.

Last month I was having trouble with one of the programs I was working on.
I needed to have a window that pops up from the Just Basic compiler to "save" a file, and then another window that gives "information" on ...

Norm

You may have hit the nail on the head Philip.

A search indicates this "bug"was in an earlier firmware version, but has since been fixed.

It seems it was in the MediaTek WIFI chips that ship with many routers, dropping connections when they got too busy.

Norm

Sounds promising.
Keep us posted Lurch.
Post the details of what you ended up doing, to help the next guy searching for answers.

Take care, good seeing you.

P.S. Money is in too short a supply to spend it unnecessarily.

I make changes and the Magic Jack phone works for a couple calls, then goes silent again.

I talked to TP Link today and they say my TPL AC750 router isn't equipped for VoIP phones, so it may be that I need to get a different router.

I'd want one for fiber optic internet that I can use wired to ...

Is there anyway I can do a Google search without getting all these "fake" websites that pretend to be what I'm looking for but just end up being shills for someone trying to make some money off of Amazon. Can I create a search that disregards any site with an Amazon link in it?

I don't think it ...

Norm

Quite impressive!

Thanks Easto, it was well worth the effort.

It automates saving all my code projects, and automates making the EXE files.
Having it on github makes updating a breeze as well.

Lots of views on this thread. I wonder if anyone has tried Just Basic yet.

I also made the same thing ...

Norm

I see the code tags don't work here. Sorry about the long post of code above.

Just a little note for anyone who downloaded and installed Just Basic......

I have created a new Help Lab/Project organizer for Just Basic.
It will make learning Just Basic v2.0 a breeze.

You can download it at github ...

Hi Deb, long time no hear.
Doing ok here. Moved to T.O then all hell broke loose with a pandemic. Got my 2 vacs, pulled a few teeth, got new ones made up, made some Doc appointments, got some new pills - you know the drill lol.

If I remember correctly (that's a big if these days)
Along with Philips post there is another setting that may be the "Initial" culprit, and another reason you're seeing that message

I don't use Chrome, so you'll have to find this setting in chrome....

Happy Birthday Philip :

Thanks for providing the forums for all of us.
And, most of all....

Thanks for putting up with me

Norm

Great to hear it worked out for you. It's always a good feeling doing something you haven't done before and have it work out for you.
I second this statement.

Once you get into i Lurch, you'll find it isn't as hard as people believe it is. Sometimes there is a bit of reading to do, other times it ...

There are multiple specs for the Dell SFF 7010 depending on the model Lurch.

Not up on hardware these days, but check your motherboard, beside the cable your using for the SSD, (and where the DVD was connected. There may be another connector (unused) that you could plug your old drive back into. Is ...

The money spent by him and Bezo's was nuts.. on top of that neither actually got to "space" where you're total weightless. What weightlessness they had was on the turn around loop. Damn!

The money they spent could have paid for the computer I dream about owning.

Gotta admit, they have balls ...

Thanks for your patient reply, I think I can add another memory stick and replace the SSD and reinstall the system for my computer, which might make my computer better. I did put too much stuff in my computer before, like Android Studio and Arduino IDE. maybe you have a recommendation for a ...

My grandson was looking at my arm the other day and asked: “What is that mark on your arm?” I said: “It’s my smallpox vaccination scar.” He said: “Why don’t I have one?” I said: “Because it worked.”

Yeah, what's up with those old vaccine scars. Looks like "they ...

I've had this headset a long time

Rang a bell as soon as I read the first few words. It's quite possible you're looking in all the wrong places, and it just might be the wire to the mic has had enough of being twisted around and now it's not getting a connection due to a cracked wire. That's what ...

Norm

On top of what Philip has stated another thought crossed my mind.

quote "4 computers and and an IPhone"
And possibly more phones?

Are the PC';s wired or wireless?

The "thought" is about interference with so many devices using wireless. Also if this is the case and it is an interference issue ...

Wow...memories. I took a Basic class back in high school, did it on the first big Apple computers, saving data on cassettes, and later the 5.25" floppy disks.

Later on, I loved the game "Gorilla Basic"....in the Win3 days. Lucky you. My first was a TRS-80 color computer from Radio Shack.

No, it wouldn't Easto. That may have worked with older spinning HD's

In fact I tried it to be sure when I read your post.

Thanks for taking the time to think of something that may help my friend.

said room-mate keeps resetting the router to factory default so it always runs with default user / pass. I configured it properly multiple times but he doesn't trust me so i gave up.

Anyone within range of your wifi can gain access to the router, or any PC on your network. They don't need to be ...

Just overwriting the first few megabytes of the stick with random data should render LUKS useless, even if it is preventing formatting tools.

Theoretically, in Linux you should be able to do a few dirfferent things, first try wiping it clean with:

and then partition ...

I lost track of all the name changes and gave up trying as people kept changing.

The data loss was bad, but most of my best work is on my Linux box. I used Win 10 for testing, but some of the code I wrote with JB is there, gone. I can re-write it though. Mostly ...
