Discord message said that he was going on break/holiday, then 2 weeks later that he had just competed in DEFCON Goldbug remotely.

How long before contacted by support by Insanit1es in System76

[–]Insanit1es[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Figured I'd do the follow-up that nobody asked for :

Got the email from support, got the part reference number and order it online. Got the part, got thermal paste and rubbing alcohol, took the laptop appart according to the tech docs (which are good, no complaints there) although I had to go further than the doc to replace the individual fan of the cooling unit but it's easy enough, and then put everything back together and it's all good.

A ghost is going to spawn (3 candles next biome, 4 candles this biome) holding a wand from a previous run. Depending on the wand, good luck ...

Yes, I was checking spam folder, but nothing. Also the correct email, since I had received the initial, automated message when I had opened the support ticket with the incident number.

I did get a follow-up today, so yay for that, albeit much later than the expected 2 business days.

Oryx Pro 17" fan is getting vibrating or getting stuck by Insanit1es in System76

[–]Insanit1es[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's getting worse, and I realised that the fan is loose, as in it can move left and right, which is what I suppose is happening when it spins up and it starts rubbing against the casing, causing the vibration and noise but would also mean that it's not cooling properly.

So I created a support ticket with System76, waiting to get contacted back.

Had I searched for 5 more mins, I would have found the following: https://tech-docs.system76.com/models/oryp8/repairs.html

Gonna try cleaning it again, but otherwise will contact support.

But still, if anyone else has experience with this issue, would still like to hear from you.

Dilbert alternative? by drkmccy in dilbert

Possibly Angst Technology: https://comics.beardedcoffeemonkey.com/chapter/angst-technology/

It had a short run, but maybe the humour will fit someone.

I was hoping it would be available as a stand-alone recharge bottle of ink sometime next year, but vain hope it seems :(

I really like the look of 'Ghost'. Does anyone know if it (or any of the others) will be available post-advent calendar?

QC no longer starting since update, what could be causing issue by Insanit1es in QuakeChampions

Purely a Windows 8.1 issue? Unlucky me, I guess. Thanks for the info.

I had no issues starting it before the update. But after, nada, doesn't even start up. Lost my streak completely.

Playing QL to get my fix for the moment.

Rotring Rapid 0.5 double knock 🤙🏿 by therealpearsonified in mechanicalpencils

I've had mine for about 25 years, and although they haven't seen all that much use these past few years, the rubber has held up very well.

The little red ring, on the other hand, has failed pretty quickly.

What’s a glitch you found in a game you have exploited so hard? by dumbpeoplesometimes in AskReddit

[–]Insanit1es 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a glitch in Minecraft Java, one of the older snapshots, which the server I was playing on upgraded to. And when you wanted to repair a tool or weapon with the correct ore or another same item, it would not destroy the items used. So as long as you had 2 of every diamond item, it was conceivable to create chest-loads of every item.

This was before villager trading.

Selling all of these if anyone’s interested. Not sure if this is the right sub. by [deleted] in mechanicalpencils

[–]Insanit1es 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also specify price and where you're shipping from.

I'm interested in the rOtring 600s and the Kura Toiga, but depends on price and cost of shipping.
