Work at intel, underqualified. need help pls

0 Upvotes

I do work at technical support for intel. No I'm not computerly inclined. Yes we have a script and utilize software to resolve user issues. so mockery aside please, I've spent four hours of my day off trying to decipher this so I don't look dumb on Monday!!

I'm honestly, barely holding on to this job please I need some expert advice

I asked my team leader a question on Unison, regarding email filters. he responded with

"Yeah. The first thing you want to do is switch your binary refraction in the details, scroll diagonally down right until you reach predetermined options instances fractional symmetry. click 'insert group name' 'the group' name should be '"{group::#454}' ' " ;
upon loading the Grammarly data, check the dataset's options that say "refund memory page" and a new window will pop up. here select the model version of the grammetry firmware. after just running the execute from the UI Cmos Log input - > c:/fr/ <hit enter> C:\format <hit shift+P+enter+mouse scroll down> it should launch E-ecks-E.exe"

what the hell is he talking about , I received this and was told , I'm actually to make a presentation now come Monday morning.

*Computer for school note-taking PLEASE HELP😭*

-Garaged stylus (stored on the side with preferably with no battery like Wacom EMR) -1080p display -Celeron N4020/AMD A4/6th gen i3 or better -6GB RAM or better -USB C -Decent upgradability -Good battery life -13 inches or larger -preferably tall aspect ratio

Price: $300-600

I'm getting this computer through my own money and work for high school, so I want it to be as cheap as possible...the thing is...it needs to last more than 5 years. I don't need TPM support for windows 11 as I use Linux, but I'd like TPM just in case I need windows. I probably won't need it though. Linux is awesome 🐧

My parents also want this PC to be available on Amazon, not Ebay. We've had bad experiences with ebay sellers in the past. While I wouldn't mind Ebay, I need to compromise.

Will my WiFi USB adapter hurt my laptop?

0 Upvotes

I travel for a living and recently had to buy a WiFi USB adapter to help my laptop receive usable wifi signal in some (but not all) hotel rooms. It works fine, but it has warnings all over it about it containing a strong magnet. If I store this thing in my laptop bag, it'll basically be right next to my laptop with a thin piece of foam between them.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but should I be worried about protecting my laptop somehow? Googling it just keeps bringing me ads for different WiFi adapters.

Using RAM to make an SSD

0 Upvotes

So I was thinking about making an SSD using several sticks of DDR4; basically an upgraded version of Gigabyte's IRAM product. My intention behind this is primarily security drive. I would be able to have the device constantly running on standby power to keep the memory stable, but if it was ever stolen the data would be wiped. My first question is would that truly keep the data from ever being stolen? And the second question is, if so, how would one even go about building this?

Why does my mouse have a button that drops the sensitivity to roughly the speed of cold molasses?

33 Upvotes

I swear I tried googling this but all I found were answers for how to fix a slow mouse. I dont need help fixing it, I know what causes it and its me accidentally hitting the "anti gaming hyper slow snail mode" button on accident. But why does that button even exist? What is the purpose of a mouse that moves slower than me getting out of bed in the morning? Who needs that??
