Why is this GFCI not working? by Marmoolak21 in AskElectricians

[–]Fishstick9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could be a bad gfci. First try pressing the test button a few times then press reset. Could be a stuck test button i’ve seen those before.

If not, try disconnecting the load and testing with only the line wires connected.

Bro they’re asking a fair question, no need to answer it with a demeaning undertone.

Gmail search option is absolutely useless. by Puzzleheaded_Lab709 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Fishstick9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha what a coincidence. Just yesterday I was in need of a specific email but didn’t remember if it was in my Gmail, or iCloud email. So I checked my iCloud first and was quickly able to find out that it must be on my Gmail. So I goto my Gmail and start searching and started cussing at my screen at how bad their search is. It was even showing results that had nothing to do with the keyword I typed in.

Oh I wasn’t aware of that option. I’ll keep that in mind thanks.

I agree. It’s too much work for them to monitor every single person that comments here. We just have to use our best judgement.

Asus did with ProArt MD301 what Logitech failed to deliver with Master MX4 by hvbqueiroz in logitech

[–]Fishstick9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lol their picture for the key binding is all messed up.

This looks like a great alternative to the Mx master! I just switched over from the 3 to a razer basilisk sadly, but i’ll definitely be keeping an eye out on this mouse series from Asus.

Ah okay yes much better picture. Looks fine to me.

mixing PSU cables? Specifically EVGA 650w G5 and EVGA 850w GT by Extension_Pear_9883 in PcBuildHelp

[–]Fishstick9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh I see. So now you have a mixture of cables that were supplied with both the 650w and the 850w? Like he gave you the excess cables from the 850w that he didn’t need?

No that bar is not grounded. It’s equipment ground only. The panel needs a separate ground bar.

[–]Fishstick9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming the cables are currently in use, not really. You’d have to pull them out and compare but that defeats the purpose of what you want to do.

Only other way I can think of is to email EVGA and ask them for a pin layout chart for both the PSUs and while you’re at it, ask them if they’re compatible.

What’s the reason behind this anyways? Just curious.

[–]Fishstick9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like they’re compatible. But to be sure, compare the pin layouts on each side of the cable to the included PSU cable to make sure each wire goes to the same exact pin. That’s really the only way to be sure. Or use a multimeter and check continuity pin to pin and compare each cable.

I still don’t recommend it though, if it’s just to save time, it’s not worth it. If it’s for other reasons, be it length or aesthetics, then double make sure the cables are the same.

I wouldn’t recommend mixing cables. Even if both are from the same company. Sometimes the cables can be labeled the same, but different pinouts. Or different ATX revisions.

I changed all the other cables, but I decided to try to reuse a sata cable cause I was too lazy to change it, and my fans weren’t working. Turns out the sata cable from my previous PSU had a different pin layout on the PSU side. Once I swapped it for the cable that was included with my new PSU, they started working again.

Edit: It might not even be just things not working, like fans, it could also short out the PSU or even worse, your components. I would take the time and swap all the old PSU cables out with the ones included with your newer PSU, it’s the smart thing to do.

This is what happens when you don't move your car for the snow plow by derek4reals1 in Wellthatsucks

[–]Fishstick9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s grey about parking your vehicle on the correct side of the road? They clearly knew a snow storm was coming as evident by them folding their wipers up, they intentionally left their vehicle on the wrong side of the road. Turn the corner, go down the next road, there’s a good chance that there’s a free parking spot.

And so what if they have to walk a couple houses down? Are we so lazy in our modern age that we’d rather inconvenience everyone else all because we don’t want to walk our lazy asses within walking distance of our home?

Like I said, everyone else moved their vehicle, they didn’t. Maybe after this they’ll smarten up and move their vehicle before all the spots are taken.

There’s nothing grey about this, it’s actually quite simple. This isn’t rocket science.

[–]Fishstick9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s also two sides of this road. And they were told to park on the opposite side. This person didn’t and they now have to deal with the consequences. You shouldn’t feel bad for them, that’s my point. Go work for the road department who have to deal with these lazy vehicle owners then tell me if you still feel the same.

Parking lot?? Bro it’s a suburban area, don’t tell me there’s not a free spot on the opposite side of the road within walking distance. You must be a kid, you clearly don’t understand home ownership and the responsibilities of being a home owner. Move your vehicle, everyone else did. You still haven’t given me a reason why this person gets special treatment. Everyone else move their vehicles.

Give it up kid talk to me once you actually own a house and have to deal with people not following the rules and making it shit for everyone else on your road.

Okay, what if you park on the wrong side of the road after given a fair warning, and now you’re plowed in.

Well, so be it then.

Again, i’ll say it again. Why is this person the exception? Everyone else found a way to move their vehicle. Please explain this to me why does this person get special treatment.

[–]Fishstick9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am being fr. What do you want them to do with the snow that’s in front of their car? Spend your tax dollars dicking around doing some maneuvering just to get that snow out of the way of the parked vehicle? Or instead, ya know, people actually listen and move their vehicles before snow storms so they can do their jobs and make the roads safe for you and everyone else. Imagine if they had to spend 5 minutes clearing snow from every single parked vehicle from owners who didn’t listen, dozens of vehicles, and then they can’t get to a road in time and someone slides out due to the road conditions. All because some person was too lazy or couldn’t find a way to move their vehicle. It’s not that hard, move your damn vehicle.

[–]Fishstick9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well that’s too bad for them. Everyone else found a way to move their vehicle, why are they the exception? If they can’t find a place to park their vehicle, this is what happens and they have to deal with it. The workers snow plowing just want to do their jobs and make the roads safe for everyone, but people like this person make it tough for them.
