True, but sadly that headset is $60 at Amazon right now versus 80-95 everywhere else based on a quick search.

And generally the consensus is that those terms should be depreciated. I know I make a point of renaming my default branch in git to main. The master/slave is harder to come up with an analagous term, but even main/sub would be easy enough to understand.

It’s not a huge deal, and I think it’s kind of funny that we use that term to lord over the console peons. But also thinking about it, isn’t it just that? We can afford video cards that cost more than your console and a whole PC to go with it? In that sense, it is punching down and saying we are better because we can afford a more expensive system, right? Gets a little less funny.

I think it still works as a meme, but also, fuck those console peons and their “controllers” and “aim assist cause their controllers suck ass”, but we should be cognizant of their feelings? Nah :-)

The pain of compiling it on and old fanless something. Literally 30 hours later. But it did run mythtv… You kids got no idea the pains of compiling crappy capture card manufacturer’s drivers into a custom kernel. We had to hack device ids into the kernel source to get video, now you guys just plug it in, dag gummit.

How do you know someone uses Arch…

Enough fans and you’ll never notice the gpu not lighting up.

Poratble monitor. maybe $100usd.

Just raising it helps some, but in general any newer laptop draws air from below and exhausts it from the sides so a cooler on the bottom doesn’t do a lot for the laptop.

The exception is if you are resting it on a soft surface that could block vents, like your f-ing lap! In that case any of those coolers will make a big difference in both your comfort and the laptop. On a good hard surface that will make very little difference unless your laptop vents are clogged up as others have said.

Anyone want to take one for the team and give is a TL; DW? Or link to something worthwhile that is not a google sheets spreadsheet you have to input 72 variables to determine if you should salvage it?

What is this text and image thing? Can you post a 12 minute video describing this concept? /sarcastic as f

But yeah, thanks for the good point of Writhing Mine.

TL; DW; Maybe

Easy there, boomer. Kids these days can’t following things without flashy graphics /s

FFS, the worst for me is coding tutorials?!? Really? You really expect me to retype all the shit you are showing in your IDE? I 100% can’t get that shit. 2nd worst is those shits that post their code as screenshots in text so you can’t cut and paste.

undefined> but I’m already starting to feel like some of these time consuming processes have been put in just for this reason

Yes

I’m not a deisgner and you pissed me off…

Not gonna happen, house are insanely cheaply built these days.

But they did on the other side? And holes are holes (he said) so all of them need to be sealed.

Took me a second, but gd, this fits the mildly infuriating…

Won’t click reddit link to see but tear it apart if it won’t get warrantied, what do you have to lose?

And don’t buy “new” shit from ebay. I hate what amazon does but you do have a record of who you bought it from and usually the lowest price on something like this.

It’s actually more of the problem. They can pay wait staff 2.13 an hour, but they cannot make them pack up take out orders for that. So it literally does cost them more to do take out.

Damn, that sounds awesome! Setting me up for disapointment (are you my dad?)

100% on check valves; technically each fan has to have it’s own vent per code. Decent fans have a check in them but better safe than sorry. I’d put a separate exhaust unless it’s really hard to get to.

+1 on humidity sensors but they can make wiring more complicated especially if you have a light as well.

I love Panasonic’s. Not cheap but humidity sensor, variable cfm and quiet.

Noisy fans make you feel better but all that higher pitched exhaust fan noise stays in the room to make you feel better but trust me the bass noise comes through outside!
