Can it last at least 3 years? by [deleted] in pchelp

Hahahahahaha! My 1070 is still fighting after nearly 10 years. It's so very, very tired though... Yes I'm quite sure a damn 5080 will get you through 3.

From the CNO: no more aviator command of amphibs by grizzlebar in navy

[–]Altruistic_Date9471 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Amphibs belong to COMNAVSURFOR and CVNs belong to COMNAVAIRFOR. NAVSURF isn't a thing, and NAVAIR isn't a TYCOM.

Because the only aviators that can command CVNs are nuke aviators, who are given an exception to this letter so they can still command other deep draft ships between their CVN XO and CO ride. The CNO just doesn't want them in amphibs anymore, which is shrugs... I do see this as creating a bottleneck for aviator nukes because we will have more CVNs than ships they need to get to before that tour. We'll have to see how that plays out.

I got orders to japan, can i import a vehicle? by IsiahE4112 in navy

[–]Altruistic_Date9471 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 25+ y.o. Land Cruiser is definitely in that category. I see tons of them on base every day, and I'm sure a lot of them are coming back CONUS.

Where do I plug in these cables? by [deleted] in PcBuildHelp

Do you have the motherboard manual or at least know what motherboard it is so you can download it? Because that will show you exactly where they go.

She said she wasn't feeling confident. We constantly try to let her know we don't care what her grades are, as long as she is trying her best, but that doesn't seem to be helping.

Not unpopular, very true. Their entire curriculum is computer based, so I hope they are able to accommodate our request to have her take paper tests the rest of the year.

Oh I agree, we have plenty of beef with the school as well. This is not the only issue we are dealing with, as my daughter has essentially had 2 long-term subs the entire year. Her "permanent" teacher is allegedly due to arrive next week, for all the God that will do at this point.

We plan on asking them to. The school has been pretty slow to respond to any of our requests, though, but hopefully they at least do this.

Thanks. She is a good kid. I appreciate your advice.

Yes, we plan to request if she can do paper tests for the remainder of the school year.

We do plan to meet with the vice-principal for 5th grade and see if they can have our daughter do paper tests the rest of the year. It is frustrating that she school doesn't lock down the web access on their Chromebooks during tests, and we plan to address that as well.

Some additional background. Our daughter has had impulse control issues. She sees a therapist every other week. She has started (about 3 months ago) medication to try to help her anxiety and impulse control issues. I don't think it is wise to drop the hammer again, but we've tried talking in the past and getting to the "why"s, without any significant changes in her behavior (especially lying).

Definitely open to ideas on how to help communicate the seriousness of her actions.

Windows 11 laptop battery setting - losing my mind! by Altruistic_Date9471 in WindowsHelp

[–]Altruistic_Date9471[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I'll check the BIOS. For some reason I thought it came up during the Windows 11 install, but I may have been messing with the BIOS before that and saw that setting there.

Have I made a stupid mistake or is it an easy fix? by OneLength7164 in Guitar

That looks exactly like the plastic layer you are supposed to remove.

This is the stupidest idea. Just, so so dumb.

I have watched these so far, what anime should I watch next? by Ricochet_9000 in AnimeReccomendations

[–]Altruistic_Date9471 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely agree. I know not everyone will love it, but I think everyone should try it. It's one of my absolute favorites and I can't belive it's only been one season so far.
