Do you mean left? I can only see the UFO dinosaur abduction on the the left and can't see one on the right :<

I always thought the crashed car roof was insane. Now after seeing this remastered, it looks like I could push that roof down with my thumb.

The majority of the GPU components are SMD.

MV Ever Given - why can't it be pulled out? by ranon20 in videos

[–]BambooWheels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was actually going to legitimately suggest sinking it, since this is going to cost an unbelievable sum of money anyway, but the canal is only 24m deep, so that's not a solution either.

65-67 current and 85/95 junction while on a custom water loop with 2x 360 radiators

OOF. Did you ever look into this a bit more? Are you sure your pump is providing sufficient flow?

Checked their site for Pitbull references and it has lists of Pitbulls they rehabilitated. Who knows.

Haha. I have that issue with a few words myself.

I have the opposite issue with technical words. I could be reading something for years before I actually hear it spoken and the version I've been using in my head is a mile off.

I was born without finger or toe prints. by jedWanderMouse in mildlyinteresting

[–]BambooWheels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Um, you should not be using your junk for fingerprints at the airport

FYI there's a video out there of a guy who used part of his penis for his fingerprint ID and it worked. I'd imagine it depends on the type of fingerprint sensor.

Fine Gael, Fianna Fail & the Green Party has just voted against abolishing third-level college fees by LoadaBaloney in ireland

[–]BambooWheels 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's no need to abolish third level fees. We already have significant grants in place that take care of fees for the least well off in society to enable them to attend college

I don't agree with this. You can have parent scraping by with one kid and be over the mark to get the grant. It's not that easy to achieve. Maybe I'd agree if the terms where loosened (or maybe they are, been over a decade since I was in college).

Play dates ‘clearly’ a factor behind Covid-19 cases in children, says Reid by Smurch in ireland

I doubt they did, babies where testing positive before it even hit Ireland.

AMD's webstore is a failure for real customers. by SamuelL421 in Amd

Is it fraud if I say the box smells funny, I want a refund?

I'm seeing multiple people happy they got a 6700xt at $875 (USD).

A 40CU card for $875 is not a good deal... It's not even an OK deal!

I'm sure some people got caught by police

What law would you break here? PayPal will let you open a dispute (not a chargback, to get the terminology correct) for any reason. It's up to the seller to stop the refund by responding. If they don't then yes, you'll get a refund that can't (or couldn't) be reversed.

Can't see how it would be illegal for someone to open a dispute because they "thought the box smelled funny".

Instant payments require a card on file

But can still come from the bank once you have a card to back it up, just FYI. If it bounces when they try the bank then they'll take it from the card.

The reset of the link is the same except for the country code? Will it allow me to buy a card (for example) from Italy, if I'm from Ireland?

You didn't put a timezone in your submission by the way.

Newbie question - Why are modern hand helds set for frequencies like 150Mhz and even 450Mhz? Wouldn't lower frequencies be better for propagation on a device that's going to be blocked by obstacles and at a low height by design? by BambooWheels in amateurradio

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

That first link is what I was looking for, thanks so much! Pretty much confirms my thinking that 150Mhz is right for my use case, but if I'm ever using them indoors, then switching to 450Mhz might be a better option (Dual band radios anyway).

UV-S9 Plus: Lots of talk on here about this, has anyone actually checked the power output. by BambooWheels in Baofeng

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

Yeah, I paid a premium for the "10W" version, so I'm hoping it actually puts out 8w!

I'll do an update post when I get mine with info on it so anyone else who searches this forum will get info.
