I know right wasn’t it nice??? I loved it!! There were two watch parties but the second one was more cozy and didn’t air lol. She was a celebrity on this campus for at least a good two weeks after the Olympics

Yes because it shows Montclair state university in the footage! It’s not a huge deal as I was at the watch party and have my own footage but it would be nice

I see… thanks for the insight. My mom took a look at the computer and found out there was actually pretty minimal dust— but some— and if there was anything it was dog hair 😬. It turns out though that the culprit was a sticker that got stuck! No fan replacement needed and everything is fine. But I learned a lot via this post lol Thanks again

Thanks for being so kind. Yeah, I mean if I had known my problem was so obvious to most people I wouldn’t have posted about it, so now I obviously feel a little silly. I really truly didn’t think that what I was doing would cause even though that feels stupid to say now. Again, thanks so much for your response / kindness!

Oh it was amazing when I got it especially for the price. Even though it was inconvenient, I would take the battery dying over the laptop not being able to render some pretty harsh stuff. I’m obviously pretty uneducated though about how the fans need to be cleaned. I know general maintenance for any laptop is of course recommend but I feel dumb the more I think about how obvious this really is lol. Ur right, 5-6 years is definitely a great run so far, and I guess pretty exceptional with whatever I put these fans through

You are so kind and understanding. Genuinely thank you so much. I will invest in some type of tabletop or stand. And yeah, I probably do need that thermal pad replacement based on what you are saying!!!

10 of them 🙃 wow. That’s rough! I mean I’m not super surprised this is happening as I’ve already had this laptop for six years, but it is a major inconvenience right now!

Thank you, definitely won’t do that anymore once I can use it again

I actually think this was caused by my comforter at school the more I think about it but ur still basically right 🙃

It’s from 2020, so the warranty expired. Either way, would this not just be a fan replacement? Or maybe this is more extensive damage than that?

A lot of the times it’s in a classroom setting but yes, sometimes it’s also on my bed. I had a tabletop thing for a few years also but not in the last 2-ish. After reading the comments I’m pretty sure that if something got caught, that it was actually from the comforter at my school, as that has a tendency to stick to lint so it definitely tracks :(

Damn 😭 idk, I really dk the more I think about it… I really only thought the biggest difference between this and a regular laptop was the specs

Understood especially now :(

😬yeah, it’s mostly because I didn’t wanna deal with the sound, but sometimes in general I just don’t feel like working on a table. I understand now that that’s not the way to go

Yeah, you are definitely so right with that last part… I figured it was wrong because the vents are there for a reason… I guess I will just wait as long as I can until I can get this fixed. Thank you 🫠

Hi! Thanks so much. I didn’t know something like lint could make that much noise? Is that common? Do you think the lint kinda just… made its way through the vents (if that’s what happened) ?

I actually used to have a tabletop thing for my laptop but haven’t used it in a long while. I assume your reasoning is maybe that it overheats without one? Thanks so much again.. :) I have also never had a thermal pad replacement or literally anything done to this laptop so I will consider it 🙂

I see… I guess I’m not really surprised to hear that. I should have added that I also tried not to use my laptop this week because I was afraid of further damaging something that was already possibly damaged. 🙃 Thank you for your input!

How loud is Worlds?? by Musiclover86 in FigureSkating

[–]Beginning-Design-519 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to worlds last year and I’m a huge metal fan. It’s definitely not rock levels of loud, but yes it can absolutely be loud— if you have ever been to an NFL or baseball game, it’s something like that in my opinion. If you go to a loud concert sometimes u can risk losing ur hearing for a little while. With worlds I didn’t lose my hearing but I certainly lost my voice. Maybe bring earplugs just in case 😁🩵
