It’s both, and also shōnen, it’s got several recognized romanizations

A Wikipedia article about floors reminds you of a weird lie you heard one time?

Worse, he pointed out on cam that the fan wasn’t spinning for some reason, then didn’t fix it or investigate and tested it as is

On the GPU side, yes and no, since the CPU and GPU are partitioned from each other and the temp of one doesn’t have any effect on the other, but we were getting the same frame rate with mine at ~75 and his 2060 running to around 84. I know someone else who had the case with a 1080 in it (180W vs the 2060’s 160W, or my 1650S’s 130W overclock) running at similar temps to mine while destroying both. It really comes down to using good exhaust fans, which he was not (and one of his just wasn’t spinning and he never stopped to find out why or fix it)

Edit for clarification: I’m saying the exhaust fans (a choice he made) are the limiting factor because his 2060 is running against the built in “something is wrong” limit where the GPU starts to downclock itself, because the same case with proper exhaust fans can handle a higher wattage card and allow OC room to a lower wattage card

You know that feeling where someone seems to know what they’re doing in an area you don’t know a lot about, so you trust what they say, and then they cover an area you do know a lot about and you realize they never knew what they were doing, they just knew more than you and how to make it look good?

I had that disconnect in 2019 when LTT, primarily Linus himself, did a Velkase Velka 3 video and did so much wrong that his gaming results were worse than my personal build, which is an accomplishment because we used the same CPU (R7 3700X), he had a 2060 and I was using a 1650 Super, and my system was running quieter and 10°C cooler on both CPU and GPU temps. I heard about the rest later, but looking at when that video was posted, I stopped trusting that Linus/LTT did any research at all in October 2019, because when you buy a bad CPU cooler, bad PSU, bad exhaust fans that you can’t even set properly, and test the system at default settings, it’s very clear you didn’t even try.

Linus messing up building the case because he didn’t read the instructions? Entirely justifiable, makes for very funny camera things, there’s the entertainment part of your infotainment. It’s a wacky case made explicitly for an extreme niche of an extreme niche of a (fairly) niche hobby, and Linus is funny when he’s winging it on the aesthetics part. Concluding that something is too hot and too loud for use unless your parents are divorced and you need to take your pc to the other house every week, when you caused it to be hot and loud by putting 0 effort into something because you didn’t just like, ask someone who knows what they’re doing? Wild

Personally, it’s the repeated instances of his company using things wrong, saying the thing is bad because it doesn’t work, and then doubling down if it’s pointed out that it only didn’t work because they fucked it up

And that Neo finally understood who he was and what his place was after taking the red pill, with estradiol being a red pill at the time

Because people drag shit up the stairs and that’s extremely cheap carpet?

Most cameras are around 5W when in use, and it looks like the Honda e has a 35.5 kWh battery, and real world testing of the Honda e comes to around 167 Wh/km or 270 Wh/mile, so if you assume 3 cameras (2 side, 1 rearview) to replace mirrors, every hour of uninterrupted driving will have the cameras reducing your range by around 90 meters?

Fortunately, Sarah Z is posting a new one next week

I played Deus Ex for the first time like, 6 months ago and it didn’t feel particularly clunky. It’s not great, but it’s perfectly okay, and I’m someone who plays with a controller at every possible opportunity and I think BG3 is a better experience on a controller, having tried it both ways

What’s the issue with Calibre Web? I add book to shelf on Calibre Web, and hit Sync on my kobo, and the kobo downloads the book and populates it in my library. What’s the thing I’m missing or that’s not working right?

Why would you spell the brake pedal in this automatic car as CLUTCH?

Complaining about Nintendo charging $90 for a Wii U game is absolutely valid

I know it’s a typo but “eek out performance” has made me picture someone programming a little ghost to spook the rest of the code into running faster

Why does bedrock only work on tablets?

I’ve been on Linux for a year but maintain computers for my whole family, and my kids are still on Windows for roblox. In that year I’ve needed to use the command line on their Windows desktops more than on my Linux desktop, because I haven’t needed the terminal at all but for some fucking reason their computers won’t let you just change the time zone you’re in so I have to tzutil it manually

A fan is still convection, it’s just forced convection. You’re thinking only of ambient convection as convection. And air fryer designs vary, there are some that are constructed the way most fan ovens are, where is just in the middle of the back, some where it’s on the top blowing down. The former would be indistinguishable from a traditional oven, except that the smaller space makes it preheat easier

Nah, the oven without the fan is a conventional oven, and adding a fan makes it a convection oven. This is probably a regional thing, where some places “fan oven” is used and some places “convection oven” is used. Since moving back to the US I’ve noticed that in my time away, packaging has started replacing “convection oven” directions with “air fryer” directions because they do have different temperatures and times than conventional ovens, but it was something like 30-35% of US households have convection ovens last time I checked, and “air fryer” is a much more recognizable term here than “convection oven” even though they’re the same thing

Fan ovens and convection ovens are the same thing
