A potentially silly question:

Update: You weirdos (affectionate) have given me such amazing advice, options, and avenues of thought. Thank you 😊

I would like a projector. I want to paint a mural on two doors. The idea is to design them on my iPad, project them, then paint the doors.

The projectors I've found are muy caro £££ but I won't need them for long so I can't justify the price. It doesn't have to be the best quality, just enough to get the basics down.

So, pocket frendos: Any ideas?

Two buttons (A and X) of my Joy-Con of my Nintendo Switch (1) are suddenly* not working anymore. I tried the updating thing, tried the button testing, nothing.
Has anyone experience with this and got and tipps?

 

(*I haven't played for a while, they were not charged, but all the other buttons work.)

Can't remember if you're running on an RTX 4090 or a glorified potato? CNET's guide makes identifying your PC's graphics card surprisingly easy. No more guessing games when those drivers refuse to update!

Help me troubleshoot my new workstation config?
Thinkpad with Thunderbolt 4 > CalDigit TB3 Plus dock > UGREEN Revodok Pro connected to the CalDigit's downstream TB3 port. 4k TV (120Hz capable) plugged into that via HDMI.

In 1920x1080 mode, I can go up to 120 Hz.
In 4k mode, I can't go any higher than 30 Hz.

If I plug the UGREEN Revodok Pro directly into the Thinkpad's other TB4 port, I can specify 60Hz, but I get screens like what you see here.

The Revodok also has two devices plugged into downstream USB3 ports: a microphone and a speaker.

I'm using #Fedora42 with #KDE Plasma 6.4.2.

Please #boost !
