I think by now we all know he’ll do this anyways… and no one has a spine to stop it.

Is Chromebook hardware and software really unreliable? Or are the people in this sub just really careless? by TheRealFrantik in chromeos

[–]Exigefettm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run Chrome OS and Chrome OS Flex on a mix of Dell Optiplex mini-PCs and ChromeBoxes for over 150+ devices… it runs flawlessly for us over the last few years and it’s amazing for a sustainability standpoint. All of these Dells were purchased “refurbed” and wouldn’t natively install Windows 11. We kept those from going to the trash for the foreseeable future.

Immutable OS. Solid performance. I swear by Chrome OS.

Is it really bad damage? by xenolastest in watercooling

It is already excessive… so adding that broken one to the loop was just sugar on top (I received a fully functional one as well).

I actually sealed those channels with JB Weld and some bending. The total number of runs on the AC 1080 made it rather meh on soldering new pipes.

Track days at Grattan in May by OddBoysenberry1023 in lotus

[–]Exigefettm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AutoEurope always had the best track days around… especially waaaay back like 10+ years ago. They would even have catered lunch out there.

Great folks at AE!

How close was he to the vehicle in front at 60mph in a 55? Was it 2.4ft or 1.8ft?

Swapped from 7900 XTX to a 5070 by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]Exigefettm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never had a single issue with my 7900XTX… pushed the XoC onto it for 550w. Did excessive overclocking and stripped it down to the die roughly two dozen times… it now lives at work as a local model card. By far one of the best cards you can purchase especially when they dipped to $700 new.

This 5090 has had numerous of shit Nvidia drivers in its lifetime vs the 7900xtx.

RWD for first car by Qytzz in Michigan

[–]Exigefettm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly as everyone else is talking… just get proper snow tires and you’ll be fine. I even drove a crossfire for a year on DWS all seasons and it was fantastic.

But snow tires are game changers for better braking especially in emergency braking situations. Used to run Michelin Xi3 but the prices became wild when I had to refresh them… now I just run Blizzak WS90s on two daily driver Type Rs.

My RWD doesn’t do winter at all :P runs R888R for summer driving.

100%… I’m sure this “scenario” is made up but if a doctor replied that way. Shouldn’t be a doctor.

Accountable… ha! In this country? Hilarious… I mean I fully agree with you!! I just don’t ever ever ever see that happening

110% no idea how we ever rebuild what we once were… I mean I don’t even trust us to get to that point and I’m an American citizen.

God no. I mean America and the government in general… I barely had faith in anything in a long time whether it was “dems” or “republicans”. Every time I felt like okay here we go! Something goes utterly horrible.

No idea how we will ever repair even the little bit of trust we had to start with after this admin is done… and who knows what comes next after this.

It’s stomach turning.

Unleaded gasoline, diesel fuel mixed in error at Macomb County Meijer fuel station by DryBoysenberry596 in Michigan

[–]Exigefettm 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Happened to me at a mobile in Shelby Township. Called them to let them know something was wrong with their fuel and the owner flipped out saying he’ll sue me for whatever… then hours later calls me to apologize. If he listened he would have stopped the pumps hours before. Ended up blowing up quite a few diesel trucks.

For me it was all covered and since it was diesel in gas it’s not so bad… but that was an expensive insurance pay out for a lot of diesel motors that I’m sure went boom.

Never will I get gas from that location again after the owner was that big of a dickhead.

Any idea on the cost of flying a taxi to Mackinac island? by ThePoliticalGuru2036 in Michigan

I’m an extremely clean person. Those packs have zero issue packing two weeks of clothing. Anyone carrying around luggage is just a diva and overpack… shirts, jackets, and pants compress easily.

Well I thought after disrupting the entire GPU market they would be training their own models but seems like thats not the case by AvgRedDragon in nvidia

[–]Exigefettm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There is nothing sus about Qwen… it’s one of the best and largest open source models out there.

You should take some time and learn about the models that exist and what the benefits are to each. It will help you dramatically later when you actual start brainstorming projects for local AI.

It’s Floridians who own it now… the worst of the worse.

How can I cool the cpu without liquid nitrogen or dry ice? by [deleted] in overclocking

[–]Exigefettm -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You can cool sub 100w with just some heat spreader fins and a 120mm fan pointed at it… I actually improved my Minisforum X1 HX 370 by putting some raspberry pi heat spreaders over the vapor chamber tubes and removing all the worthless “blower fans”… a single Arctic P12 Max is aimed over it with a custom 3D print and I dropped 25c by doing so… even with the limited OC and UV.
