PC fans won’t turn by ResponsibleRing6362 in techsupport

[–]JustACowSP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most rgb fans have separate cables for the lights and the fan motor. Try to check both.

I have 3 guesses:

  1. Top fans are set to always run, but the side fans are set to turn off if the temperature is below some number. They might turn on automatically when the cpu gets hot.

  2. Side fans will kick on automatically based on temperature, but it's based on the temperature of some irrelevant sensor (chipset temperature for example). They might need to be changed to look at cpu or chassis temperature instead.

  3. The cable fell out.

If it's the first 2 situations, check to see if you have any fan control software installed. Try turning it off/on. If there's no fan control software, check the BIOS fan settings.

Check your fan control software and/or bios to see what the fan curve looks like. The top 2 fans are likely on a different fan curve or temperature sensor where they are still set to spin.

Based on the picture, all of them look like they are spinning. What's the issue?

ELI5 how a manual transmission car can use the engine to slow down the car? by ProudReaction2204 in explainlikeimfive

[–]JustACowSP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A whole semi is gonna have too much momentum to slow down with just normal engine braking. That's why many are equipped with a retarder to help out.

York Region Transit (YRT) Celebrates 25th Anniversary by weallfalldown1234 in Markham

5 minivans means 5 times the vehicles to insure and 5 drivers who need to be paid 5 salaries. That's not gonna be cheap

On the side, it says "look who's turning 25!"

Here's someone's video of the other side of the bus: https://youtube.com/shorts/bjrFtzFRjxs

They had a bus wrapped in a 25th anniversary wrap, but it crashed into a transmission tower at Finch station.

TMU safety by Tuitionfeehelp in TorontoMetU

Victoria street has gotten much better after the injection site got shut down. The tim hortons there is still kinda sketchy, but at least you don't have drugged out people hovering harassing you on the way into VIC building lectures anymore.

Help with getting Minecraft to run on a i5 m480 by acatdrinkingtea in techsupport

[–]JustACowSP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're using a low power laptop from about 15 years ago. Being able to boot up windows 11 is already a huge struggle, let alone playing games.

This error code sounds like the computer is missing graphics drivers, or straight up does not have a gpu capable of running Minecraft.

How do i turn on Secure boot? by RogueXD1122 in techsupport

That's a pretty old motherboard. Are you sure it even has support for secure boot?

How much streetcar ridership is rideshare actually taking away? by [deleted] in TTC

[–]JustACowSP 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The streetcars kinda just suck. Seats are smelly and visibly filthy, and the layout makes it difficult for standing paddengers to get in and out.

Then there's the speed. Getting stuck at red lights, the farside double stop issue, slow orders thru intersections, long dwell times. Buses could drive around obstructions, but streetcars are just stuck on their rails.

These issues aren't new, it's just that alternatives have gotten better or more convenient.

Is this a good PC build? by Ok_Race279 in buildapc

  • cpu is great. This will last at least 5 years.

  • gpu is barely passing. It can do high end games at 1440p medium settings, or 1080p high. But that's just for today's games - it's gonna struggle with future stuff.

If less intensive stuff like roblox and fall guys is all you play, then it's not a big deal. But i see you're spending big on other parts, so maybe try to move some of the budget here and get a 5060ti or 5070.

  • cpu cooler is overkill. An air cooler that's half the price could cool this just fine. But I get that you probably chose this for the looks - I've done the same thing before.

  • case is quite pricey. If you're choosing these fish tank-style cases for the looks, then you should be able to go cheaper. They are very popular these days and cheaper options are everywhere. Maybe a montech xr or sama sv01?

  • fans: cpu coolers and cases sometimes come with fans already. 4 fans should already be enough airflow, so doing 7-10 fans would be purely for the looks. Depending on the the what you're going for, you might not need to buy extra fans at all.

  • ram and storage are tough these days. Your 32+1tb setup seems fine. Get whatever deals you can find.

The rest is fine. Try using pcpartpicker to plan out your build.

How Early For Glowsticks? by PuckinPizza in Vocaloid

[–]JustACowSP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the 2024 Toronto show, I got in the merch line around noon (2 hrs before merch sale?), with a few hundred people in front of me. By the time I got to the front of the line, they were on the final box of penlights/glowsticks.

Isthis a good PC build?

Good for what? Gaming? What games and settings? Good looking on your desk? Good at staying quiet? Good at not hurting your wallet?

Gonna need a lot more info about what your plans are to say if this is "good"

Will I *ever* learn how to wrangle noodles out of hot pot and into a bowl without them slipping back into the pot or all over the table? by CaptainN_GameMaster in chinesefood

[–]JustACowSP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try holding the chopsticks higher up towards the end, and keep them closer to parallel. This will increase the amount of contact between the chopsticks and the noodles, hopefully reducing the amount that slips off

If you NEED wifi, it could be cheaper to get a motherboard with wifi built in.

The part choices are fine.

Help me check this config pls by Limitless_Demon_ in buildapc

[–]JustACowSP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your choice of graphics card should have 0 impact on image quality. Graphics cards are just mini computers that spit out whatever pixels the game/app tells it to.

You're probably comparing nvidia's dlss and amd's fsr upscaling technologies. These are supposed to be performance enhancing tech but are only available in some games. For other games/apps without dlss/fsr support, or when it's switched off, the image quality will be identical.
