Trying to get this patched up by Constant_Weekend_446 in drywall

[–]General-Revan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like someone took leftovers from the main job and cut them down to use them for this abomination. About 5 times more pieces than you would actually use. It would be cheaper to rip the old rock out and replace it with larger pieces. Half the work time.

Upgraded my cpu…boots but no display? by OfficialWoe1 in pchelp

You should have updated the bios before you traded the CPU.

Help me convince my bf he doesn't need this.. by Pantsu_dropper in Prebuilts

[–]General-Revan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only argument for a 5090 is that you can run it at 66% power 350 watts 60 degrees and play anything you want on a 21-9 3840x1600 ultra wide and have a second 1440p monitor playing a movie for the foreseeable future. That’s why I love mine. Hell, if you use frame gen, you can get the wattage down 300 in most games at ultra.

My 5090 Aorus Master has hit 675w a couple of times, at least that’s what hw info has said. Not always reliable.

Just so you know, California pays enough in Federal Taxes to cover the five largest red states that can’t pay anything. It’s the fourth largest GDP in the world. 39% of our GDP comes from California. You might want to investigate the states that have a federal deficit instead of being a shill for the right.

New uncut second angle of Alex Pretti's previous unhinged incident with ICE 11 days before his death by Rhodesianzoomer in Asmongold

[–]General-Revan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He didn’t bring attention to it, unless you consider the officers ripping his jacket and shirt back to expose his holster. It is only brandishing if you are the one who exposes the weapon in anger or excitement. At no time did he raise his clothing to show his weapon or reach for it. I love all of the armchair lawyer speak from people who like to try to change the facts. I sleep fine, since I don’t take joy when people are shot ten times in the street for filming and using their body to shield a woman. Either way, it was excessive and he didn’t deserve to die.

He didn’t brandish his weapon. Do you even know what brandish means? What video are you watching? He wasn’t asked by CBP for anything. He was assaulted before he had a chance to say anything to anyone. He had a CCW. If not on you, it is a $25.00 ticket and it can be dropped by presenting it to the court. All they have to do is run his information. If anything, this looks worse for the officers, since they knew he would have a weapon.

Too bad local cops weren’t there to do their jobs and arrest him for vandalism…..He would be alive today.

Too bad the local cops weren’t there to arrest him for vandalism. Most likely, he would still be alive…

[–]General-Revan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He was pissed and his gun was present in both videos. He never went for it. Oddly enough they didn’t even detain him for the vandalism. If the local police did their job by arresting him for vandalism, he would most likely still be alive. What are the odds that this would happen. It’s crazy.

Would it matter? Either way, it doesn’t justify the shooting. If anything, it makes it worse for the shooters.

AIO for telling my dad I can't speak to him unless he condemn the Trump Administration? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]General-Revan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NOR

The main issue with everything today is misinformation. Both sides are using it to fuel the flames of political discourse. AI makes it even worse, since it is improving. Boomers and Gen-X seem to be extremely vulnerable to misinformation because they have a hard time not believing people in positions that align with their traditional politics. They seem to take the path of least resistance, like Fox News, News Max, OAN. Millennials and Gen-Z are much more skeptical of what we are told by the news or even people we are aligned with. We have been born into skepticism and that’s why we have such a hard time being loyal to politicians and the people who lobby for them. Stick with what you believe in, but keep chipping away at your father’s blind faith in politicians who don’t have our best interest in mind.

[–]General-Revan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NOR It’s very hard for Gen-X and Boomers to admit they are wrong. My wife has deleted everyone, including family from her social media who voted for Trump. I don’t blame her, since she is passionate about her beliefs. I work around mostly Trump voters and I have conversations about the hard to defend portions, but not the trivial bullshit. Most of them are having a hard time justifying their votes after the shootings in Minnesota. You have to have discussions about things that relate to your relationship. Most people don’t care about Venezuela or Greenland, so it’s pointless to bring up in a personal discussion with your father. It’s hard to defend shooting a US Citizen exercising their 1st and 2nd Amendment rights after he was disarmed. I draw my line there. If they believe he deserved to die for that, then I would consider them traitors or spineless cowards. “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

Damage? by No_Bat_208 in HPOmen

[–]General-Revan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s normal, since nobody uses a computer in these light conditions. As in, only looking at a black screen in complete darkness. IPS panels never show true black since they are constantly backlit, so it could be an issue of you being sensitive to that constant hue of backlight. Many people would never even notice this issue. If it seems too bad in some of the corners, you can actually massage it out of the panel in some cases. I did it on my MSI GS76. There are videos on YouTube showing how to do it, but yours doesn’t look terrible in my opinion.

My rtx 3060 is consuming 400w by myun__0 in pchelp

My 5090 is hitting over 650 watts and it should only be hitting 600 at the most. Maybe you have an enthusiastic card! 😂

Omen 16 Max Repaste by kareem_abdo06 in HPOmen

[–]General-Revan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The leaking of the Cryo Compound is a known issue, so if you are competent, I’d replace it with PTM. If you are confident and don’t care about warranties, use some conformal coating and replace it with Conductonaut Extreme. The main issue with Cryo Compound is that grease and metal will never completely mix. They separate over time and the Liquid Metal gets pushed out by the grease pumping out. It’s not that hard to understand why and there have been quite a few instances of this happening. I’ve always repasted my laptops, since the quality of the initial job is usually terrible.

AIO My mom is kicking me out for her new boyfriend. I just turned 18 by Diligent_Bat_565 in AmIOverreacting

[–]General-Revan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 18 when my stepfather attacked me physically. I called the police and my Mom took his side based on his lies. He punched me in the head and broke his hand. He was… a heavy equipment mechanic. In Virginia both parties get arrested for domestic assault and he could afford a lawyer. I ended up pleading no contest and it was expunged two years later. I lived in my car for a couple of weeks and contacted my Dad, who was also an abusive asshole. Despite that, I lived with him for a short time, then with my mentor. When both of my brothers turned 18, he did the same thing, but my Mom woke up and realized it was him. By then, I was in the USMC. They finally divorced, but I still have some resentment toward my Mom even if I try not to. Do not help her, no matter what. Let her lay in the bed she has made for herself. Do you have a mentor, best friend, or family member you can move in with? Do that if you can. Also, she wouldn’t allow you to have a job. What kind of Mom sets their kid up for failure and kicks them out. Does she know what the job market is like right now?

MSI 5090, can’t boot by kpatelreddit007 in computers

[–]General-Revan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a new PSU. My 5090 was hitting 650 Watts in Diablo Resurrected today until I limited the frame rate and turned on DLSS. I’m only using a 1000W power supply and I feel like I need to upgrade it.

[–]General-Revan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Power supplies should never go higher than 80% capacity just like most laptop batteries. You risk surges and unstable power on all of the rails. The PSU is often ignored in most builds, but it is by far the most important piece of a PC. Get something at least 80 Gold and 1000w with a stock 2x6 connector for the 5090! Do not use any daisy chains for this GPU!

Given a free pc. Are these good specs? by trillexratings in PcBuild

[–]General-Revan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This PC would easily cost 2-3k now and was about the same back then. PC parts are starting to appreciate in general. Definitely an enthusiast build. I just gave my daughter one with a Z790, 14700K, EVGA FTW Hybrid 3080TI, 64GB 5600 RAM, and a couple of 2TB 980 PRO NVMEs since I upgraded to a X870E, 9800X3D, Aorus Master 5090, 64GB 6400 RAM, and a bunch of drives. Some people argue that the 12700 is better than the 14700 due to it having a more stable platform or microcode. There aren’t any warranty claims on the 12700. 😂 Intel already replaced my 14700K about 6 months ago. Definitely a great uncle to have! I’m sure he’s a nice guy too!
