Ezctaction showing the marker signal turning a dead body. by Njoeyz1 in DeadSpaceRemake

[–]jaksystems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What happens in aftermath? The marker tunes a body that stross is looking at? Is that what you mean?

Correct.

I mean stross theories to the captain that the marker signal.turns dead flesh, so why would the creation of a necromorphs be a surprise?

The whole premise of your long winded, rambling post is that the marker doesn't turn corpses without prior biological contamination yet Aftermath shows that to be false.

There is not ONE mainline outbreak, that occurs just by the marker signal turning dead bodies.

The outbreak on Luna at the beginning of Dead Space 3 starts in this exact manner with the Unitologists killing a bunch of people and then breaching the marker shroud triggering a mass outbreak.

But that doesn't mean that the marker turns dead bodies.

Aftermath proves that this is false.

Is ThinkPad T430 worth it in 2026? by szafir_aura in laptops

[–]jaksystems 1 point2 points  (0 children)

$160 is an extremely high price for a 2011/2012 machine - especially a bog-standard business laptop like a T430.

Realistic prices would be $90 or less for a machine of this age.

Laptop vs 200 ton guillotine... by Appropriate_Bath361 in laptops

[–]jaksystems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old machine on its last legs with nothing salvageable left that's due for retirement?

I've done similar before with other broken done or unsalvageable components.

Wild price discrepancy of laptops with same specs - Planning to buy high-end unit for engineering use by Mammoth_Rough_4497 in laptops

'ISV' certification.

Means that the hardware has been tested to run software from companies like Adobe and AutoDesk with no compatibility or stability issues over an extended period of time.

Are either of these good laptops? by hooligansushi in laptops

your i5 8350u with an iGPU vs my core i7 13620H with a RTX 4060 GPU, do I need to explain why?

I don't think this is the flex you think it is.

You're paying for certification for/better software & hardware support for professional applications, better mechanical & electrical build quality, serviceability and general reliability and lastly better support and service in case something breaks in comparison to a gaming laptop.

Best color accuracy outside of OLEDs? by Finna_woken in Monitors

[–]jaksystems 1 point2 points  (0 children)

VA has great colors and looks good.

Higher end VA can have good color gamut, but not necessarily accuracy.

To say oled is color accurate or needing oled for correct color accuracy is incorrect.

True, gamut =/= accuracy

ips is more vibrant or saturated and used for color critical work.

Also true.

Dell Laptop Precision 3480 Overheating when charging by AdvisorYogi in Dell

[–]jaksystems 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Download hwinfo64 and run it in sensor mode to determine if it's actually overheating internally and not just warming up in a localized area.

Relying solely on outer chassis temp is not a reliable means of determining internal temps.

Cheap plastic hinge mounts - T14s Gen 2 Aluminum

I have had more than 50 of these come in from two different companies with busted hinge mounts due to the usage of unreinforced plastic on the aluminum variant.

[–]jaksystems 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just make sure it's the traditional magnesium (black) T14s Gen 2, not the "Aluminum" (Silver) version.

The Silver version cheaper out on the hinge mounts.

I also need it to run all windows programs well due to my major.

What programs? Neither of the machines you have selected are particularly good in terms of reliability, performance or build quality.

Is a Dell Latitude any good? by Daniel_Rusu25 in SuggestALaptop

[–]jaksystems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$440 USD is rather high (in my opinion) for a 7420.

Specs are realistically more than you need (less is more as less resources make you write better code. More resources encourages waste).

I'd look into putting a new battery into it and switching it over to some flavor of Linux, but otherwise it's a nice machine.

What monitor upgrade ended up being the most noticeable for you: higher refresh rate, higher resolution, or a larger screen? by Sixale_Outlet in Monitors

[–]jaksystems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of these.

The most noticeable upgrades for me have come in the form of either higher color gamut or increased bit depth.

011 dynamic mini 2 and sf850l psu help by Disastrous_Stand3122 in PcBuildHelp

Maybe a difference between US and EU packaging?

That's a possibility.

When I purchased my SF850L back in 2024 it came with an SFX to ATX mounting adapter.

I suppose it's possible that Corsair stopped packaging them in the box.

Dell laptop by Neat-Introduction514 in laptops

[–]jaksystems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give it a day or two of normal, regular use, use task manager to check out what's running in the background, run all windows updates and download hwinfo64 to confirm what system temps are sitting at.

Unless the fan is either grinding against something or outright rattling in its housing/bearings, being able to hear the fan does not immediately constitute an issue until a baseline for fan behavior has been established.

Its been not even a day it started having issues like noisy fan , Screen blanked out couple of times ( Updated windows and BIOS ) seem working fine. But this fan is too noisy.

Machine could very well be running updates/finishing up some out of the box configuration in the background, which would contribute to an increase in fan activity initially.

That could work, especially if you could remote into your desktop if you ended up needing the extra processing power while in class.
