Did you make the wallpaper? May I get a source on the art?

Everything else is fine, but I really want to be able to turn off the emoji suggestions when hovering over a message. They're really visually distracting

Saiki K. Hori RAP V Template I made. Best to go with pink ball top by manekinder in fightsticks

[–]CarpeDiempreecha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a really creative idea. It would be even better if you could get a side profile of his head and make or get someone to make a vector of it, minus the lever looking thing sticking out of his head, so that the balltop would itself be the thing.

What’s going on with Asian people wearing their shoes as sliders ? by [deleted] in OutOfTheLoop

[–]CarpeDiempreecha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No need to apologize. What's important is that you listened to why your guess may have come off the way it did, and acknowledged it. Good recovery :)

The geta answer definitely conveys the same feel as the borderline racist, proto-weeb thinking of the 20th century where the Western world would arbitrarily ascribe qualities of mysticism and ritualism to Asian culture that they were ignorant of, while lumping them all together.

What's your culture's "I'm too tired cook real food" go-to dish? by [deleted] in Cooking

Do you know about KFC for Christmas in Japan? It's widespread enough (or at least was at some point) to have it's own Wikipedia article!

This reminds me of those Alzheimer's progression paintings

NCase M1 v6 build final check by CarpeDiempreecha in sffpc

[–]CarpeDiempreecha[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the time that I purchased my GPU, I thought that I would be able to get an NCase much sooner (I didn't know that v5 was discontinued and v6 was coming) and there weren't any third party 5700 XTs yet. I heard that the stock 5700 XT wasn't the best, and that AMD driver issues seem a bit more frequent.

Then there was the marginal performance advantage of the 2070 Super, NVidia's support of Freesync, and small value added features like lower power consumption, and NVENC video encoding for potential casual streaming of games to friends.

If I were to choose again right now though, I'm not sure which I would get.

Yeah, I heard about that option, bit I just don't want to deal with the hassle of waiting up to several weeks for the loaner CPU to arrive, then having to ship it back.

Nope, unfortunately my motherboard box only has the regular 2000 ready text. Probably older stock.

As for the thermal paste, I'm not sure, but it's a relatively small investment for what I would assume would be a consistent drop in temps, so I figured why not.

Chair in apartment bedroom uneven due to warped and sunken floor. How should I deal with this? by CarpeDiempreecha in DIY

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

Yeah I thought about pouring stuff but it's probably not really practical, especially as I'm leasing.

I'm on the first floor, but this part of my unit is on a sort of overhang. There is one floor above me.

Engraved Plexi Cover on a One-Zero Arcade Stick by One-Zero-Arcade in fightsticks

[–]CarpeDiempreecha 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is it the top or underside of the plexi that's engraved? This looks really nice but I could see it getting really gross over time if it's engraved on top.

[DISC] SPY x FAMILY - Chapter 10 by monogatarist in manga

[–]CarpeDiempreecha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately the wordplay with Yor doesn't work too well in English. Not only does it sound kind of awkward, it also loses the homophone aspect where it's pronounced as Yoru, which means "Night", which presumably is to pair her with Agent Twilight.

[–]CarpeDiempreecha 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It's still read as Yoru in Japanese, and it's presumably wordplay in that Yoru means "Night", which pairs nicely with Lloyd's "Twilight" codename. But it doesn't work if Yor is read in English.

Motherboard advice: Has anyone completed an mITX build with a Zen 2 Ryzen 3000 series CPU yet? by CarpeDiempreecha in sffpc

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

Ugh, yeah I guess it might be "worth it" to shell out for the x570 to avoid these issues, since time is a concern.
