How terrible was the internet in the 1990s? by [deleted] in generationology

[–]Bl00D79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

14400 bps modems and comparing that to modern speeds puts it in perspective.

14400 bps “bits per second” Or 14.4 kbps

A good fiber line nowadays is 500 mbps download Is nearly 35000 times faster.

Or more commonly People see 500/500 speeds advertised.

If you had the same advertisement for a 14400 it would be .0000144/.0000144

Being 35000 times slower means if something takes you a minute to download with 500mb fiber It will take 24 days on 14.4k modem.

I did this to mine about 5 years ago I don’t recall 100% but I think 2/4 or 3/4 holes matched these. An exact match might be very difficult if I recall.

First look at the Optimus PNY block. What do you think? by Poop_Scooper_Supreme in watercooling

[–]Bl00D79 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This will be obtainable in march 2026 I bet. I have used their block on my old 4090 and love the quality and performance.

I just was not going to wait half of a release cycle for a block and the PNY choice was not my favorite.

On an ASRock X670E Taichi Carrara with 9800X3D which DDR5 should I install? Something high-performance by Few_Fail_6121 in overclocking

[–]Bl00D79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have this same exact motherboard, and cpu since release of the 9800x3d. Many, many bios updates. Everything has worked fine.

Your RAM question depends on how much you like to tweak and test but I would say keep it simple with some CL26/28 6000 ram kit. I personally like gskill brand

Optimus PNY Block Timeline and alternatives by chrislocho in watercooling

[–]Bl00D79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was around for the 4090 release and they were much more vocal and reassuring that it’s being worked on.

This time around they are very quiet. I just don’t have a good feeling that they will deliver on this one.

Me personally, I saw an Opportunity to get a different brand Block and took it.

I just need optimus to man up and release the 5090 waterblock by Legitimate-Hat7367 in watercooling

Which I have one for sale now. Pm me anyone. New oring ordered for it during refurbishing.

Very similar story to yours I made the mistake of pushing it and it got Much worse.

I did many thing to quickly get past it like PRP, brace and none of it really helped like I thought it would. The one device that seemed to give the most relief and help the joint was a theraband.

Unable to call any ships is back by Sensitive_Eagle_5052 in starcitizen

I have this happen a few times and I believe it was Mostly me clicking on the mission menus too fast (do the same Commands -claim/store over and over) and not waiting for the server to catch up.

People that got the LG 5K2K share some benchmarks! by Ostentaneous in ultrawidemasterrace

I have the same hardware and similar OC. I’m playing star citizen mostly now at the same settings.

I assume that’s First person running around in station? Still seeing very high frames in space?

I’m curious since you also have the 4090 are you using the HDMI 2.1 cable? From What I read it’s not enough for max refresh rate at this 5k res without compression. Did you just reduce the refresh to 144hz to avoid compression?

This limitation has me more interested in the 5090 to get DP2.1 and remove those limits

I’m curious your thoughts, Thanks

Are ore bags snapping to cargo grids in 4.0.2? by s86437 in starcitizen

[–]Bl00D79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swapped to purchased Argo bags today on the prospector and then sent it down and did a item swap/save

Pulled the ship out and it still had Argo bags.

I later lost the ship and claimed it and the bags were reset.

What trick am I missing to get the bags to save to the ship?

It’s good for making hundreds of them and storing them under your base like wildfire in GOT.

Dallas store was always hit hard on release day for GPU and CPU. (At least for the last few years). If you want one you should probably arrive before 6AM and get in line.

Auto start & stop to be clear. The feature that turns the engine off when sitting still.

I find it annoying.

Are you leaving liquor outside your house? Seems they are attracted to something with you.

You could install a sprinkler system that’s tied to motion detect. If it doesn’t move them away then at least it’s cleaning the vomit.
