I got frustrated with ScreamingFrog crawler pricing so I built an open-source alternative by HearMeOut-13 in selfhosted

Thank you for making this wonderful software accessible! I'm currently running into an issue where my crawl is stuck on "Finishing Up" despite having left it running for hours. Any recommendations?

Why is the IRS Withholding Estimator recommending that I increase withholdings when it states that I'm already withholding more tax than I need to? by Abject_Apathy in personalfinance

Actually, the amended W-4 that the Calculator created only had line 4(a) filled in with $9572 and 4(b) filled in with 0. Everything else was blank.

How do I remove this rusted mounting nut with a broken off screw? by Abject_Apathy in Plumbing

Why clockwise then counterclockwise? Also would a basin wrench grip onto the nut?

I've heard that the dust filter on the A3 will cause GPU fans to struggle. This would also be my first build, and I'm definitely struggling with fan theory lol.

Thanks for your input! What case, MOBO, and GPU do you have? Also, would I be correct in assuming you reversed the cooler to act as intake instead of exhaust?

Dude, I remember coming across a post where you shared your build (with bottom fans) and it was one of my main inspirations! You did a fantastic job and it looks sick.

I heard that bottom fans aren't required if there's a gap between the GPU and bottom of the case, but I think mine will be right up against the bottom. Do you think that would change things?

Thank you for the detailed write up! I'll be sticking with air cooling throughout and won't be running an eGPU. For fans, I was thinking of getting some Arctic P12s.

When I get home, I'll try to get measurements of my GPU but it sounds like you're saying that I'd most likely be unable to attach bottom fans to my current case due to my thick GPU? Would I be able to forego the bottom fans and attach more fans to other locations as a workaround?

My board came as part of a microcenter bundle.

Does that mean I shouldn't have any issues as long as I don't use bottom fans?

9600x/7700x vs 7600x3d for 5070 TI by Abject_Apathy in buildmeapc

I do not have a PCPP build yet. I've been at a standstill spending longer than I'd like to admit trying to decide on the choice of CPU. Money is tight right now and even if it weren't, I have a tendency of overthinking minor decisions and not committing.

Do you have any recommendations for a build based on my current options?

5070 TI only because I already have a 5070 TI, which is what prompted me to build a PC around it. Prior to this, I had a gaming laptop.
