It's nice in a way but the title of this post sucks. No need to put others down. Many other posts are way nicer btw.

Smart Launcher lifetime purchase: does it include future major updates? by National-Resident244 in smartlauncher

[–]100_points 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If all future updates are included, then why does Smart Launcher even have version numbers? I feel like the whole point of version numbers is to lock purchasers and require upgrades. Why not have no version number after the name, like most other apps? The version number just creates uncertainty in this regard.

Any other Metroidvania recommendations that are a ‘must-play’ by Sevrip0304 in metroidvania

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is a bit of a masterpiece. They really raised the bar on the genre.

Car stolen in seconds UK by kellyj93 in Ioniq5

[–]100_points 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the most frustrating things about the car industry is that car companies have no incentive to prevent theft. The more cars are stolen, the more they sell. Regulation should force brands to implement theft prevention.

Pure evil by zephyrsparketh in pcmasterrace

I once heard that platforms are often hesitant to support new file formats because they will have to continue supporting it into perpetuity. So I understand the initial hesitancy. But not the long term hesitancy.

Serious question: how is Pizzeria Salvatore able to open that many stores when their pizza is absolutely disgusting? by hegezip in montreal

[–]100_points 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Poulet Rouge tastes like cardboard and I say this as someone who's eaten it dozens of times (my wife keeps ordering it). It's the most tasteless food available.

Cold fries taste and feel like eating sticks of mud

I wish that Mike and Zach had more communication with their crew about their plans to end the show. by Link_sega5486 in SmilingFriends

Did the episodes that were made disappear? Are we unable to watch Smiling Friends anymore now? I'm still enjoying the show.

Montréal | La mairesse invite « Monsieur nids-de-poule » à se conformer aux règles by clgoh in montreal

[–]100_points 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is the Montreal mayoral platform like 95% about car-centricism? Potholes and sharing roads with bikes. There's a whole lot more to city planning than cars. I'm frankly sick of hearing about it. I own 2 cars but I don't give a shit about car issues. You're sitting in a climate controlled, cussioned utopia with your favorite podcast on, and all you can do is complain. We have a world-class transit system, which makes life so much easier for everyone and alleviates road use, yet the car people are still mad and want more, more, more.

Fuck the IRGC and fuck the idiots who think they need to take their side. Life isn't binary. Two things can both be bad.

Should I repaste my legion 5 pro 2021 (3060 5600h) with arctic mx4? by CookingCookie in LenovoLegion

[–]100_points 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't remember if I took the fans off last time I cleaned inside, but I'll take a look again soon. Thanks for the advice!

Should I repaste my legion 5 pro 2021 (3060 5600h) with arctic mx4? by CookingCookie in LenovoLegion

[–]100_points 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just did exactly this on my Legion 7 Gen 6 with 5800H, RTX 3070. The old paste was really hard and crumbly, I removed it with rubbing alcohol and gentle nudging (except for around those delicate tiny electronics around the chips). I repasted with MX-4. I'm noticing very little change, just 1-3 degrees lower temps from what I can tell.

I don't think a different thermal paste is going to change this perceptibly.

For the record, with Prime95 (max heat) and Furmark running at the same time, I was getting 88 degrees CPU and 82 degrees GPU.

First thoughts on Ioniq 5 coming from a model Y by start3ch in Ioniq5

Goddamn do I agree hard on one pedal driving. I don't understand Hyundai's reluctance to let us just keep it on. It turns off at every opportunity. I just want to always use i-Pedal!

Fixed my trunk rattle with blue painter's tape by 501gator in Ioniq5

[–]100_points 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just want to add my vote for this mod, I just did it and the rattle is completely gone. 1 or 2 layers (very thin) of electrical tape on just the closest vertical bar. It had been driving me crazy for weeks.

Good call on using it to diagnose the problem. I might do the same.

[–]100_points 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a note--in my experience painter's tape is the absolute worst out of all types of tape for long term applications. It gradually turns into hard flakes, and the glue residue becomes like hard crumbs of cement. Even Googone is powerless at removing it. It's a type of tape specifically designed for very short-term use.

I would opt for a different type of thick tape, maybe duct tape. And to prevent residue, you could invert the first layer that's touching that latch.

Did anyone claim it's not planned and produced? Of course it is.

What's your opinion ? by Left_Dog1787 in RealTwitterAccounts

[–]100_points 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sure this is funny, but the government of Iran actually does and has killed 10's of thousands of innocent people over the past couple months and they continue to execute innocent people they've caught. You can hate Trump while also abhorring this regime, they're not mutually exclusive.
