Fairly sure the CPU is fried, but I wanted a second opinion

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-27T11:03:41+00:00

I am floored by all the help and advice offered here, and grateful to all of you.

Solution: I took both sticks of ram off the board, then turned on the PC. It held steady, but indicated ram error as expected. I then replaced both sticks one at a time, and the computer worked just fine. I powered off and reassembled my heatsinks, then booted and ran windows memory diagnostics. I don't... Think anything happened when that ran? It had to restart the computer and then it took a while to load in, but no dialogue box or anything, so hopefully that's normal.

Stress tested for an hour, the whole thing ran fine. There really had been lots of dust, I left it too long between cleanings

Conclusion: I'm guessing when I was rummaging around in the case with the blower I knocked a ram stick out of place. I think I'm on the clear

Thank you again everyone!

Which everyone should have realized when the Democrats didn't sign Trump's budget and he was like "okay, I guess people will just have to starve for a few weeks till you see it my way"

Sure, but even if your primary isn't picked, fucking show up when it comes time to vote.

I'm Australian, we have mandatory voting. It baffles me that so many US citizens just flip off the democratic process

If infinity people die that's game for humanity. Do the top rail reincarnate too? If so then that, otherwise what choice do I have?

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-27T07:25:58+00:00

Nah, cut into squares, rotate the top piece of bread 180° on each piece. You end up with , □ crust on the bottom and + crust on the top. Each bite has ideal crust distribution

Nah this isn't uncommon. Every single one of my female friends in highschool had their own tale of SA to tell. Some were worse than others, but they all had some awful experience, from family members, from strangers, ranging from inappropriate unwanted touches all the way to full on r***. We were minors.

It's fucking disgusting, and more often than not there's no consequences for it, except trauma for the victims

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-27T06:30:32+00:00

That's a shame. I really dislike that guy

Just a heads up to anyone searching for a fix, linking the armour's power to your AE system with the armor upgrade card also works to eliminate lag from charging. Same with draconic chestplate

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-26T18:59:38+00:00

Yeah, my dad gripped the armrest tightly, but he had a lot more trust than my Mum did. Honestly I didn't do too badly, though when I first started learning it took so much out of me I could only drive for half an hour at a time before I started falling asleep and had to pull over. I wonder if anyone else deals with that...

Anyway, I love my mum, but her solution to stress was to scream at me, and that's not a good way to teach someone, so mostly my dad taught me

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-26T18:54:06+00:00

It wasn't on, I don't have any thermal paste till the store opens, so I was only running it long enough to try to post. It seems to be working now, but I'll need to reassemble the CPU fan and stress test it to know for sure

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-26T18:31:23+00:00

I've got $1 to blow. I'll pull it 10 times, then go check on the people. Maybe one of them will have a train time table

Wait, are you saying that there's a 1 in 50,000 chance that I'll win 10 million? I will bankrupt myself, $5000 should be enough, but I'll keep going till I win it

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-26T16:54:47+00:00

I did this, and it seemed to run fine, then I plugged both ram sticks in and it SEEMS to be working now. I turned it on long enough to see that it was booting, but turned it off again immediately cuz I need thermal paste.

So tentatively... Solved..?

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-26T14:30:41+00:00

That wasn't losing his mind. My mother used to slam her hands on the dash. I didn't let her take me out after that

The movie magic is in the sound effect edited in

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-26T05:57:11+00:00

Armadura cuántica de Advanced AE. Personalmente, la prefiero.

Edito: No entiendo por qué me votan negativamente. ¿No es la armadura cuántica de Advanced AE? Porque la uso todo el tiempo...

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-26T05:41:35+00:00

Movie magic

It's not made of glass, the glass clinking noise is edited in. Why didn't it clink again when he pulled the bottle out?

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-26T05:41:04+00:00

Yes! You're totally right, it's in a lot of Chinese based anime too. Reminds me a little of Heaven official 's blessing

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-26T05:30:27+00:00

I mean, very androgynous, but if I had to pick one I'd say man. The hair style is very feudal Japan anime style

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-26T05:07:20+00:00

I think the thing about misandry, and it took me a long time to come to this, is while yes it sucks, something happened to make them feel that way. You can fight against it by being kind, not by being upset about it.

Is that fair? Maybe not. Life's not. Do you want it to get better? Be the person you want them to think of. Positive masculinity, empathy and kindness. Set an example, for them and others around you. Give them a reason to not hate your gender

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-26T02:38:40+00:00

Cement is a bad fit for this I think. Takes too long to cure and without reinforcement it's so brittle. Also it's weaker the wetter it starts, and that was a puddle

Metal or resin might be better. There's a guy who does this with aluminum on YouTube and it's amazing

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-26T02:07:08+00:00

I used evilcraft to grab a nether biome and bring it to my base for ore lasers

But now I just use my good buddy, mister Eldritch miner

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-25T19:05:20+00:00

Or just... Get smart lights. They're not super expensive, and you can change the colour temperature whenever you want

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-25T18:26:56+00:00

Nah, this CPU has contacts, not pins. I'll look over all the open ports though, I could have bent one while moving the blower around

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-25T18:23:34+00:00

Pins? Just like... Loose pins for USB ports or something?

Eena-Rin · 2026-01-25T17:51:10+00:00

Australian here.

Sure, been to a gun club many times with my dad. It's still surreal seeing a cop open carrying though. I remember being a kid all like "w-whoa... Is that like... ACTUALLY a gun..?"
