MSSQL connection from NODE.js getting Authenticaiton Error

12 May 2024 @ 5:14 pm

I'm not having luck establishing a MS SQL connection.First time attempting to query MSSQL Sever from Node.js, I just want to try reading a table and dumping to a json file. To set this up, I took a connection string from a working .NET project, and parsed it into the config section of this a new node server.js script. I'm not seeing what's wrong with the sql connection config but maybe I'm missing something. Any ideas of what I can try next in an effort to debug this would be appreciated.

12 May 2024 @ 5:13 pm

I'm fairly experienced in VBA, and have been for many years. But this error has me pulling my hair out. I copied a simple routine from instructions on "webscraping with VBA" and keep getting this error. The code is simple, and adheres to all the suggestions, recommendations, and usage criteria that I could find. What's curious about the situation is that when the error occurs, if I select "Debug" then step into the code from the point of failure, it will work correctly. It also works if I start stepping through it beginning at line 1. Apparently, something isn't getting set correctly at some point. Time, maybe? I'll attach a screenshot and hope someone can point out what I seem to be missing. The code is a simple script to pull quotes from a website, and was taken from an instruction here: https://oxylabs.io/blog/web-scraping-excel-vba. I've looked a

Saving a new custom editor document with a custom extension

I'm creating a ChatGPT "editor" in VS Code where you can have a chat window open not unlike the one OpenAI created for ChatGPT. I don't have any problems with creating the editor or saving and loading documents per se, but if I create a new document and then save it the save dialog defaults the file type to json and not the extension I created for the file - the extension I created isn't even in the save as type dropdown. It is json behind the scenes, but I don't want it to automatically save as json. I don't want to manually register a type in VS Code, instead I want this to all link up and work from having the extension installed and enabled. enter image description here My goal is that when I create a new gpt document and try to save it (e.g. create new document and immediately press Ctrl+S) that the save dialog box will recogni

How to trick Operating system into thinking I have a different, better GPU? If there is a way

12 May 2024 @ 5:12 pm

I want my PC to display or register that I have different GPU than I actually do. I currently have a NVIDIA RTX 3050, and I want it to register as at least an NVIDIA RTX 3060ti. I am NOT looking for it to enhance performance. I want to bypass the minimum specs requirement for some games. If a game wont register it as the better GPU, it won't help. The main game for this is Arena Breakout Infinite, as I can't open the game with below-minimum specs. My full computer specs, if that helps, are NVIDIA RTX 3050 Intel I5 12600KF 32 GB ram Windows 10 OS I haven't tried anything yet, this is my first post.

Fetching the other TFS branch one by one

12 May 2024 @ 5:12 pm

I've almost managed to migrate all my repos from TFS to Git but I've got an issue with a big one that after 3 hours gives me an error on CacheFull on a specific branch. I've read I can clone the main and then add all the needed one by one but I've a problem with the syntax... Using git-tfs list-remote-branches shows me for example | +- $/Project1/Releases/2.2 | +- $/Project1/Releases/2.3.0.4 | +- $/Project1/XXX/DEV Then I've done git tfs clone http://tfs:8080/tfs/collection $/Project1/XXX/Main . --branches=none and it cloned the master. Now I've tried using git fetch -i $/Project1/Releases/2.2 but I got an error saying Unable to locate git-tfs remote with id = $/Project1/Releases/2.2 You may be able to resolve this problem. Try using git tfs bootstrap to auto-init TFS remotes. I've also tried doing git tfs bootstrap and doing again the fetch

How to effectively ungroup apps in windows 11 taskbar

12 May 2024 @ 3:33 pm

I have browsed this thread before posting this message because my question is a bit more specific. I have found the option to "Never combine taskbar buttons and hide labels" in taskbar settings as you can see in the picture bellow. enter image description here The problem is this doesn't "unclump" those items in the sense that you can't place one before the other individually. When you try to move one of the "ungroupped" instances of the program, all the other instances move in the taskbar aswell. (See gif I attached) enter image description here D

Internal SATA connection on my late 2014 27" iMac retina not visible in Windows 10 (my only OS partition)

12 May 2024 @ 2:02 pm

I originally bought this Apple computer without the fusion drive and just a 256GB blade SSD. Some years later I upgraded to a 1TB SSD (cloned from the original boot camp partitions). While I was at it, I also bought a cheap aftermarket SATA cable and plugged in a new 2TB SATA SSD drive (which worked, for a time). More as additional storage as there aren't enough USB ports on this computer. Then one day, it, the SATA drive, stopped working. I could never solve the problem and started using the SATA SSD on an external USB enclosure instead. Around this point I got rid of my Apple partition to give myself some more space on the main drive. I just never used it. It's still on the original SSD drive though in case I need it. In case you are wondering, I could never adjust to the Apple operating system, I just preferred (or rather got used to using) Windows over the last ~35 years. Space was at a premium on the original 256GB unit. Fast forward

Find and Replace old Unicode emoji with new Unicode emoji in text file? [closed]

12 May 2024 @ 12:43 pm

I am trying to archive some old WhatsApp conversations from 2012-2013. Looking at the exported .txt file many of the emojis are not recognised and are displaying the Unicode in a box like this:   This is E058, which if I google is actually dissapointed face (https://www.iemoji.com/view/emoji/18/smileys-people/disappointed-face). I believe over the years the Unicode has been updated and old emoji codes have been replaced? Is that correct? And now the current disappointed face is F61E right? Is there any text editor that I can use to find and replace the E058 emoji with the F61E emoji? How would I go about doing this? Many thanks

MSI laptop started stinking

12 May 2024 @ 12:42 pm

My MSI MS-16P7 gaming laptop from 2018 started reeking of cigarettes weeks after upgrading it from 32 to 64 GB RAM, 256 GB to 1TB NVME, and 1TB HDD to 2TB SSD. I notice there are brown patches on the heat pipes which neither a moist towel nor my nail can wipe off, possibly from the darkened motherboard area around the NVME. I don't smoke, but did notice the fan intakes were dusty, which explains why my GPU went to 100 instead of 70 degrees Centigrade during LLM inference. Limiting the processors to 95% helped temps stay under 80 according to GPU-Z, but the smell lingers despite lessening. What to do? Replace the very sticky and possibly sweaty thermal pads with one long new one and blast the smellier fans with compressed air despite not seeing dust in them? On closer inspection, it appears that the draft sealing pads right on top of the right exhaust and heat pipe near the left exhaust are falling apart.

Maybe there is some parameters for ssh binary?

Audacity: really subtract one track from another

12 May 2024 @ 11:33 am

This question has been asked in the Audacity forum and elsewhere, but it has never really been answered for what I believe "subtract" means. My experience with the Audacity form has led me to believe that I will see a much better answer here. The instructions other sites give are to split the stereo tracks, which I have done; then select one track and use Effects -> Invert on one track, which I have also done. At this point, the instructions are to re-combine the tracks to stereo, and then mix down. This is where things go wrong: when I recombine the tracks the selection on the track select tab does not allow combining the tracks to mono: that selection is greyed out. On the main menu, under "Tracks -> Mix" the "Mix Stereo down to Mono" option is greyed out. It is only possible to "mix and render" into the same or another stereo set of tracks, which does not do what I would call a 'subtraction'. The tracks that remain s
