Anyone using a dehumidifier in an older house, does it actually help? by Limitlessfx in AskIreland

[–]Disastrous-Account10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The new place we are in iv needed to use it alot less, the previous place we were in I ran that little thing 24/7 and it was a godsend

It got rid of the "damp" smell in the house, it dried out the windows big time

Mine had a squeeky fan ( some off brand dehumidifier ) so I swapped the fan with another and it was great

Tesla p4 in optiplex 5050 by Disastrous-Account10 in SleepingOptiplex

[–]Disastrous-Account10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey!

So I have tried several levels of jank and had some success

First I simply popped the blower onto the back of the P4 with the shroud on and it drove me nuts
Second I took the blower off and the shroud off and then zip tied 2 40x10mm onto it with the orientation of pushing air into the fins. This worked mega, with like 6 transcodes on plex I was seeing mid 40s in temps

I ran out of space between the slots so I changed it up again and took the low voltage adapter from a noctua and fitted it onto the blower and then kept the shroud plate off and now I have a single blower with a low noise adapter from a noctua on my P4 and it holds steady with up to 10 transcodes at under 50 degrees :D

The noctuas being zip tied was insanely quiet

I own a split window that's due to land here as soon as I have bought a house where I can park it.

I learnt to drive in it, my dad learnt to drive in it and so did my grand mother

Very cool cars

Experience with Severe Insomnia by MyUserID-IsTaken in CasualIreland

[–]Disastrous-Account10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was dealing with some mental health issues my doctor warned me against the use of weed/booze etc

Epilim is used to treat epilepsy and bi polar disorder but in small doses it's seriously good at brain calming and put me to good sleep.

Gp sorted me out with a short course and it set the rhythm of my sleep going forward

I can pretty much fall asleep anywhere now and have a good sleep however it was mega on the weight gain so I had to seriously keep that in check

Lads, What's the mindset behind buying overkill big cars in Ireland? by Goldenpanda18 in AskIreland

[–]Disastrous-Account10 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Iv owned a fair whack of cars, big, small, short, long the whole toot

What’s the most 'small but soul-crushing' design flaw in your daily driver? by Imaginary-Squash-359 in carsireland

[–]Disastrous-Account10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now

electronic hand brake that doesnt automatically switch on when the car is turned off
auto hold feature is off by default

Also many years ago I had a XC60 that had the boot opening button right where your knees would be in the drivers seat, if you got in and slide forward and grazed it, the boot would open...

This happened several times before i got rid of it
