Upgrading a light switch to a new one, but can't get the old one out. Plate came off no problem, then the top screw to the switch. I get to the bottom screw and turn. At first it comes out about 1-2/8ths of an inch, but then it continues to turn freely with no more progress coming out. I can turn it clockwise and counterclockwise, but it doesn't seem to move in or out, it just turns freely.

I've spent about a half hour doing combinations of screwing while pushing in or pulling out on the screw. Tried grabbing it with pliers and turning. I've applied quite a bit of force with no change. I'm actually suprised I haven't broken the plastic body at this point, with

I have some family friends who are Chinese citizens, and they need to urgently return to China. They have been living in the United States for about the last 2 years. Looking up direct flights from the United States yields flights that are approximately $8,000 per person. Multiply by 2 people and that's $16,000. Also, the flights are not available until Feb 1.

There are many flights that transfer through other countries for far cheaper and much sooner. How do those transfers work with the mandatory COVID-19 testing? Any other options?

I've been playing more and more Co-op lately as I've now black bordered several maps on single player. It provides a whole new set of challenges that has really refreshed the game for me. However, I have some questions about Co-op that I was hoping you all would be able to help with.

I have found the meta-standard Obyn, Ninja, Alchemist (ONA) to be quite powerful in Co-op. This seems to be able to carry me on everything except impoppable. On that, because the income is split 4 ways, I have difficulty getting the T5 upgrades that can carry the last 10 levels or so. I'm usually able to get the grandmaster ninja out, but permabrew is really hard to get out in time. Any advice for the last 10 l

I have been on "Blast!" internet (up to 250 Mbps) for what I thought was less than a year, but apparently not. I noticed on this upcoming bill that the exact same service has increased in price 37%, so I'm assuming the promotion ended. I already purchased my own modem to save on rental fees, and I've been happy with the modem and service thus far. I would appreciate help looking into other internet-only options. Thank you.

I've been following this guide for getting ESRGAN to work on windows. I had no problems with the guide, and got everything up and running. The results are stunning, but anything larger than the included sample images and I get the following error:

RuntimeError: CUDA out of memory. Tried to allocate 7.91 GiB (GPU 0; 11.00 GiB total capacity; 2.06 GiB already allocated; 6.71 GiB free; 2.18 MiB cached)

I'm using a 1080ti with 11gb of VRAM, and I was hoping to upscale some 1080p wallpapers.

Can anyone look at test.py from their githu

I recently had a check engine light on my 2002 Infiniti Q45 with 95,000 miles on it. The car has been running great and I haven't noticed a drop in fuel economy. It's also time for my emissions inspection, so I have to get this fixed before I can pass.

I whipped out my ODBII scanner and got the error code P0155. This indicates that the O2 sensor on bank 2 sensor 1 has failed. Question is, where is this sensor located and what is the part number? Rockauto.com is telling me this is the upstream right sensor, but I'd like to confirm before I buy the part. I tried looking for a manual with no luck. Thanks!

The results of this neural network, proSR, on 8x up scaling of photos as displayed in the paper and the youtube video linked below are quite impressive. Has anyone been able to get this neural network up and running and replicated the results? I'm hoping that someone can make a stand alone program for this, so that those of us who are not familiar with Lunix can use it.

​

Also, recently added just a few days ago, is the adversarial loss network, proSRGAN, with lower PSNR scores, but higher fine detail that the neural network "hallucinates".
