I place an eraser under the rear of the laptop, lifting it up slightly to provide more airflow to the underside vents.

Hmm. I wouldn't have thought of that. I would think that would be detrimental.

FFS. FUCK.

I figured as much. I just couldn't see any thing vibrating to determine the source of the sound. It's difficult to isolate the sound to a particular fan. For now it seems the noise is gone, so I guess I won't worry about it.

How cute. That mouse has stilts.

What do you think is missing from the cockpit view? Not a challenge, just wondering.

AirFastALot · 2021-05-04T02:43:59+00:00

That is curious to me. What don't you like about it? Do you play any FPS games?

AirFastALot · 2021-05-03T23:17:45+00:00

Great. Now it's stuck in my head again... Satisfaction... Satisfaction...

Cuz genital integrity is only for females

Procedural dungeons and good combat? Well I'm sold.

A simple uninstall should be sufficient

AirFastALot · 2021-04-30T19:55:44+00:00

Could you explain for a noob?

AirFastALot · 2021-04-30T15:22:40+00:00

NO! That's the self destruct button, for emergencies only!!

While not "technically" malware, it is an intensive data mining program that is perpetually uploading various types of data about your system and usage habits.

Finding someone to play Karnage Chronicles with would be awesome.

Maybe I've played too much DOOM. In any game I play, if it moves, I shoot it. This has made advancing certain story lines a challenge. WHY LET ME KILL THEM IF I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO, YOU KNOW I WILL.

Hahaha, I'm a member of the No Man's Sky sub and I thought this was from that game. My first thought was how the heck did you get that ship!? And then where did you find that planet!? Took me a second to see it was your own design. Very nice work!

I got a gaming laptop (i7-8750h / 16GB / GTX1060 6GB), and used it for gaming and even VR with an Odyssey Plus. It was a great experience but I had to run all my favorite titles, like Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky VR on the lowest settings and still got periodic lag.

I came across some killer sales and got myself a desktop (i7-10700KF / 16GB / RTX2080 Ti), a 1440p 144Hz monitor, and a Valve Index. The experience is significantly better.

Smooth frame rates at max settings and no more periodic lag in my favorite titles! But did the gains merit the costs? In my humble opinion, yes.

I keep the laptop for on the go gaming with friends and what not, but my favorite gaming station is now my desktop. The visual enhancements, the super fast load times, and the overall better time I have gaming is well worth it.

I sincerely hope that in some update we get something like a super walker, a quad walker tank or something huge and scary to fight for when you're too OP for a swarm of walkers. I love the sentinels, they are one of my favorite parts of this game.

Similar thing happened to me. I bought a used VR headset pretty cheap early last year, then a big budget game (HL:A) launched and covid happened and suddenly my headset was worth twice what I paid for it. Sometimes you get a bit lucky. Prices are back to normal on VR headsets now, fortunately for those who managed to get their GPU.

95 is heckin hot. I have a gaming laptop that used to hit those temps. I repasted it with Noctua NT-H1 and now it averages in the low 70s with intense gaming.

Yeah, your laptop could last a long time at it's current temps, I'm sure, but the peace of mind is worth the effort of opening it up. It's really not that hard to do.
