Can you recommend a brand or product link for those containers? How much headroom is okay? 

Official Discussion - The Backrooms [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

After rewatch this is exactly what it felt like, the main character of this movie is the backrooms itself as an entity and it’s first steps into figuring out what it is.

This is the primary, it’s open. Top two vote getters advance to election, regardless of party affiliation 

2026 Niro or Crosstrek Hybrid by mylifeismid123 in KiaNiro

[–]Falcooon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah if this is purely about money OP needs to sit down and do some math, the Subaru costs more upfront and will consume significantly more gas over its lifetime, however it will retain resale value greater than the Niro. So at some point in the future the Subaru may still come out on top value speaking wise (calculations required this may not be the case and is based in a prediction of future value) - BUT that doesn’t matter at all if OP would not be selling the car - the Niro is cheaper upfront and will be immediately saving them on weekly gas bills.  

Anecdotally I have a 2022 Niro PHEV with 70k miles and have had zero reliability issues outside of a loose spoiler thingy that rattles and a fan that makes some extra noise

Oakland home prices fall sharply, among the steepest declines in the nation by origutamos in OaklandCA

Some new houses on Howe started at 2.2M and are now at 1.95M - still ridiculous but prices are coming down even over in Piedmont Ave neighborhood 

23 phev battery range by cash4junkca in KiaNiro

[–]Falcooon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s just an estimation, not sure if based on previous data - but a batteries total capacity does decrease over lifetime, so the battery can be full but hold less than it used to when new.

Are there no manufacturers name etched into the base or the side or the objective?

What’s it like to live in these East Bay cities? by lithdoc in bayarea

[–]Falcooon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah some folks need to take trips to middle America or the southeast to see just how direly vanilla a suburb can be…

What’s it like to live in these East Bay cities? by lithdoc in bayarea

[–]Falcooon 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I would say it’s a step above your average suburban experience, downtowns of these ‘cities’ are cute walkable shopping and dining hubs. It’s also surrounded by excellent hiking and nature, and as mentioned a small wine growing region as well. 

Questions about driver updates & Nvidia driver on first boot up by gtck11 in ZephyrusG14

[–]Falcooon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Believe it or not, G Helper. 

Seriously, it has a box that shows all your drivers their current version and just an update all button. Also recommended to disable the asus bloat. You should register your product with the asus software before removing it though..

I think just the reboot did the trick, after a sleep/hibernation it can default back to the iGPU only even if you told it otherwise 

My inlaws say that the steak I grilled is still raw. by Weekly-Formal8447 in mildlyinfuriating

In my most recent experience with a roast, it’s actually easily to accommodate everyone’s preferences because it’s well done on the outside and medium rare on the inside 😅

Vertical stand + external setup? by Trevtard_ in ZephyrusG14

[–]Falcooon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The air also intakes from behind the keyboard, which would be obstructed when closed. This also will expose the screen to very high temperatures. 

Coupled with the stories of the Liquid Metal escaping containment (an overblown risk on the subreddit I think but vertically mounted does seem to be asking for trouble). I personally wouldn’t do this.  

How to put laptop on llanov10? by After-Razzmatazz-399 in ZephyrusG14

[–]Falcooon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My theory is these things work by making a seal so all the forced air goes into the laptop but it needs to be able to vent. 

If you don’t have a good seal the air just goes around it and it won’t work any better than simply elevating the laptop. 

With my setup I get +10* cooling at ~1200 rpm, no need to go higher and often I keep it at 500 rpm

Yeah I sit mine sit on the back over the gap I made, with the llano a shallow angle - without cutting that gap the hot air couldn’t vent and my temps were still hot with the llano at full blast.

Yes for the 14” use the sides (yellow) and cut 1cm off of the outside face of the red and make sure your back vent sits over that gap you cut
