StatickyBalloon

Is there a way to get the Tapo app to refresh the thumbnails without manually live-viewing the camera?

The thumbnails say "live" but they're really just a static snapshot of the last time I viewed the camera's live recording.

When I had Arlo cameras, I got around this same issue with their app by having an IFTTT trigger record a clip every 15 minutes. That kept the thumbnails somewhat refreshed. I haven't found a way to emulate that with Tapo though.

I've been having some odd behaviour with my Nest devices so today I decided to factory reset everything: Three Nest Routers (two used has hardwired Points), several displays, Max speakers, Nest speakers, etc. Everything went relatively smoothly until I got to my Nest Cams.

I removed all the cameras (wired Nest Cam, Indoor, Outdoor, and IQ versions). Now I cant get any of them to reconnect expect for the Nest Hub Max. I've tried the barcodes and manually entering the cameras' six-digit code. As soon as I click Next, the app thinks for a moment, and then dumps me back at the Nest home view. About every 4th try, my Samsung S21 says the Nest app "has a bug."

I've cleared the Nest app's cache,

This is my first ITX build and my first build in maybe a decade. My last PC was a prebuilt and just wasn't satisfying but it's all I had time for. I like the small footprint of this case and its unique shape.

I reused my 6900, old but trusty PSU, keyboard, mouse, and LG 3840 x 1600. I like a more minimal look (mostly black with a few white accents in this build) and a quiet setup so I opted for non-RGB fans and an air cooler. Two 140mm fans on the cooler and two 140mm exhaust fans. No intake fans - the Tower 100 is built for passive intake, and it works really well. The light bar from the 6900 is just enough light.

Other specs: Asus B660i, i5-13600K, 32GB G.Skill 5600, 1TB Samsung Pro 980.

I have the Asus B660-i and a Samsung 980 Pro in a Thermaltake Tower 100. I have the SSD in the top slot with the Asus heatsink. I'm wondering if I should move the SSD to the back of the mobo. I'd lose the heatsink benefits but it then would be inches away from the 140mm Noctua exhaust fan.

The only difference I see in the manual besides the heatsink is that the back M.2 slot mentions Optane but the top doesnt.

What would you do?

Brand new build including Asus ROG Strix B660-i, Asus approved G.Skill RAM (2x16), i5-13600k. It won't post. The yellow light on the mobo says a potential DRAM issue. If I remove the RAM then the beeps tell me the RAM is missing. Replace the RAM and the yellow light comes back on. I don't have parts to swap in and out without returning parts and ordering new. Suggestions?

I have a new Asus ROG Strix B660-i motherboard and am thinking about changing out my non-RGB fans with two or three Corsair RGB fans. Can I plug the fans directly into the mobo's headers or do I have to use the Corsair USB/SATA hub? The fans are Asus Aura Sync compatible

Considering my first MATX build but am having a hard time finding a case and power supply that will fit and power my 6900XT (267mm). I've found a few cases that seem to fit until more research tells me it will fit as long as I don't install a front fan. Also, cant find any MATX power supplies above 585W.

Suggestions for case and power supply to run my 6900xt?

Add'l info if it's helpful: I have the nvme SSD and fans. I need to select a Mobo and processor. I'm not into overclocking.

I cant find how to build the hacienda in the New World. I have all the DLC, 45k population, but no hacienda in my list of things I can build. I played the scenario with the hacienda, but back in my normal save game, there is no option to build it. Do I need to do anything to unlock it?
