![]() ![]() There is however a utility you can download for free called Process Lasso The thing is that you have to set every single process Affinity individually, which is a very time consuming grind, and then, to top it all off, when you reboot then you lose all the settings you just made. ![]() What this does is it allows you to dictate which processes can use which Core of your CPU. This is called "Affinity", and you can set it if you open the Task Manager, right click on a process and then on "Set Affinity". Luckily no, and there is something built into the NT family of Operating Systems which guarantees that you will have that lucky streak of Cache hits nearly all the time - thus immeasurably increasing the performance of your CPU. So that's it? You are screwed? You are at the mercy of random chance and a lucky streak of Cache hits for performance? And no amount of overclocking can get around this fundamental obstacle. So as you can see, the performance of a game is not so much dependant on the speed of the CPU or the GPU, but rather how often the CPU can score a Cache hit as opposed to a Cache miss. What this means is that the process will then have absolutely NO data in the Cache and have to go back to either memory or storage to fill it up again, which is incredibly wasteful of CPU time. The Operating System has a mechanism known as "Task Switching" whereby it will take a process waiting for its time-slice on one core and assign it to a completely different core. Of course Micro$haft would not be Micro$haft if it didn't actually go out of its way to kick you in the nuts whilst you were gaming. The Cache is multi associative, meaning it can contain disparate data from different sources, this does not however mean that a new process will not overwrite data vital to the another process - like a game which is running - and when that process gets its time-slice again it can find that it's Cache has been marked dirty and will have to go an retrieve the data again from memory or storage - slowing down that process very, very significantly. Well remember when I said that Windows was a pre-emptive Operating System? What this means is that other processes get a time-slice of CPU attention, and of course those processes will load data into the Cache. So the CPU is happily chomping and digesting the data it gets from the Cache - problem solved? When needing data, the CPU will always look in the Cache first, and if it doesn't find what it needs there will request it from comparatively very slow memory, or, not finding it there, have to fall back on the positively slothlike storage. Whilst the CPU is working on data in the Cache, the Cache itself is loading data the CPU is going to most likely need next. Increasing the speed of storage was not and even now in the days of NVME M.2 is not a really viable option.Ĭache is basically an area of RAM built into the CPU which runs at close the the same clockspeed of the CPU. I hear you say, "OK Captain obvious, so what's your effing point?".Īs CPUs got faster and faster and storage and the data bus started lagging ever far behind, a way had to be found to circumvent this imbalance. To get back to the question of where the CPU gets its speed from, the answer is from the data, and the more fluidly and consistently the CPU can get the data, the more speedily it can execute that data. The problem with this is, when a process hangs, then the CPU is basically stuck trying to compute data that is not being requested and will be in a hung state with no way to terminate the process. Previous versions of Windows worked on the basis of cooperative mutlitasking whereby a process would have the CPU attention until it relinquished its call. What this means is that all the processes running on the system (and a game would be a process - or perhaps have a number of process threads) get a certain time-slice of attention before they are frozen and another process will get attention. Windows of the NT family (which is all that has survived) is a pre-emptive multitasking Operating System. You see it really doesn't matter how many things are doing nothing or how fast those things are doing naff-all and this is the problem you will mostly be confronted with when gaming and/or streaming, and it is the reason why games will not run optimally, no matter how much you overclock or how many cores are added to the system. If your answer is, "From the clockspeed of course", or "From the number of cores of course", then I would contend that you would be wrong. Before I start, you have to ask yourself one question, "Where does a CPU get its performance from?". ![]() ![]() ![]() Step 6: Secure the Fuse PanelĪfter all of the new fuses have been inserted, use a flathead screwdriver to tighten down all of the screws on the fuse panel. Be sure to match them up with their respective positions so they work properly. Once you’ve identified which fuses need to be replaced, use the needle nose pliers to insert the new fuses into the fuse panel. Step 5: Replace the Christmas Light Fuses If the metal at the end of the fuse has melted or is cracked, then it needs to be replaced. Inspect the old fuses to determine if they need to be replaced. Be sure to keep track of which ones go where so you can replace them in the same position. Using a pair of needle nose pliers, carefully remove the old fuses from the fuse panel. Once you find it, use a flathead screwdriver to loosen the screws and open up the fuse panel. The fuse panel is located on the plug end of the Christmas lights. This includes both indoor and outdoor outlets. How to Change Fuse in Christmas Lights? Step 1: Unplug the Christmas Tree Lightsīefore you begin, make sure to unplug your Christmas tree lights from any power source. If you find any problems, then it is best to replace the entire strand rather than attempting any repairs yourself. In this case, you should inspect the socket and wiring to check for any loose connections or exposed wires. If none of the above issues are present, then it is possible that there could be a problem with the socket or wiring of your lights. To solve this issue, you may need to clean out any dirt or corrosion before being able to use your lights again. This is usually associated with old lights that have been used for some time, and the connection between the bulb and socket has become filled with dirt or corrosion. Corroded SocketĪ corroded socket can also be a cause of Christmas light failure. Fortunately, most Christmas light strands are designed with removable bulbs, so it should be fairly straightforward to identify and replace any faulty bulbs. ![]() In this case, you may need to replace the bulb before being able to use them again. This will usually cause the entire strand of lights to stop working, as the current cannot pass through the defective bulb. The process for replacing a fuse in Christmas lights isn’t overly difficult, and it can often be done quickly once you know what to do.Īnother common issue that can occur is a defective bulb. ![]() If this happens, then you will need to replace the fuse before the lights can be used again. Fuses are safety mechanisms that will blow if there is too much current running through the Christmas lights. ![]() ![]() AnyDVD HD is an amazing program and i use it as a TOOL not a gizmo on a DAILY BASIS and i also bought CloneCD, CloneDVD 2, and CloneDVD mobile with a LIFTTIME lincense. Now, to get back to my point, i accidentally deleted my old post, however i still stand by my opinion.

People on the internet will argue all day about the settings I've just given, but it should be a good starting place since all the options can be bewildering for novices. If it's DTS I like to compress with Nero AAC in Foobar2000 and remux the audio with MKVMerge, because the AAC options in Handbrake for Windows aren't good quality but they don't allow Nero's AAC encoder because of licensing issues. For audio use passthru if it's an AC3 file, otherwise you're compressing a compressed file. ![]() On the picture tab, Anamorphic=Loose, Modulus=16, Cropping=automatic. Use high profile, Film preset, I use the slower setting. I Use constant quality at RF 16 for HD rips (may be overkill, lower is better, many people recommend 22 or 20 for HD.

Accordingly, the fact that the show keeps its regular roles one-dimensional - surface traits, no capacity for growth - becomes even more imprudent, for this only exacerbates the inherent racial concerns. ![]() I hoped that I would come to agree with the many fans who call Amos ‘n Andy a lost gem: one of the smartest and funniest of TV’s early sitcoms, unfairly treated because of its unavoidable racial assumptions, which, depending on who you ask, are either legitimately troublesome or erroneously feared. But I’m afraid that I simply don’t think that’s a valid narrative - not only is the series NOT on that top shelf of its era’s comedies ( I Love Lucy, The Honeymooners, The Phil Silvers Show), because its character work is not up to those standards, it’s also impossible to wrest Amos, Andy, the Kingfish, Sapphire, Calhoun, etc., from the minstrel tropes and stereotypes that had defined African Americans in entertainment up to that point, an issue made more glaring when we note that the creative team was all white. You see, many first season scripts for The Amos ‘n Andy Show were written by Leave It To Beaver‘s two creators, Joe Connelly and Bob Mosher, and I thought this connection would inform my looks at both series… However, after examining the 74/78 episodes that circulate (they’re all on YouTube as of this writing), I’m afraid I can’t really give this show my usual critical attention. Welcome to a new Wildcard Wednesday! This week, I planned to cover the television adaptation of the long-running radio hit Amos ‘n’ Andy, which ran for two years (1951-1953) of 52 episodes on CBS-TV, with another 26 added that decade in first-run syndication. ![]() ![]() ![]() Complete a worksheet and then read a leveled reader focusing on that word.Complete a worksheet as the word of the week.Here are a few ways in which you can use these sight word worksheets: How to use the First Grade Sight Word Practice Sheets The first grade sight words include: after, again, an, any, as, ask, by, could, every, fly, from, give, going, had, has, her, him, his, how, just, know, let, live, may, of, old, once, open, over, put, round, some, stop, take, thank, them, then, think, walk, were, when.
