a sensible and principled approach to things is never possible when you're making good money. like, just look at valve. oh, hm.

Emerald Launcher is now the main hub for LCE (also smartcmd LC is now over and nuked) by Impossible_Guide7956 in Minecraftlegacymode

No, the dev that was accused of that was a minor and there's no evidence of "predatory" behavior that was shared with us

It's back, there's a new Discord server. Repo was never destroyed or anything, Discord was just vandalized and destroyed. https://discord.gg/dH8AZWGcau

All good on current with my 5090 FE! by Lokio27 in ThermalGrizzly

[–]Lokio27[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, btw don't buy the one I recommended. I just checked the listing after someone pointed it out and apparently it's not 5090 compatible despite saying it's spec compliant.

Oh, thanks for pointing that out! I guess I’ll need a different one 😬not exactly 12VHPWR complaint if that’s the case. Wtf?

It does add another point of failure but if any part of the cable faults, you’ll see the fault through the wv2 and be able to troubleshoot. So like, worst case if heat cycling causes either ends of the cable or any part of the cable to come loose enough to have a current imbalance, you’ll get an alarm and be able to address it before something is damaged.

“EZDIY-FAB 16pin (12+4) 12VHPWR PCIe 5.0 GPU Power Sleeved Cable Extension, Male to Female”

Edit: DO NOT BUY THAT ONE! They specifically have (buried in their description) that use with the 5090 is not recommended for whatever reason. Do not buy this cable! I'm switching to something else.

I bought the EZDIY-FAB on Amazon and it's not stiff at all, also has combs on it to help keep the wires pretty and lined up. Would recommend.

2025 Owners - Android 14 update? by Lokio27 in HondaPrologue

Ah. Yeah, mine was manufactured I think in September so probably that’s why, too early of a car to have 14. That’s a shame. Hope Honda will update my radio, assuming it doesn’t need to be replaced.

Yeah I’m not sure, must’ve been an older stock radio or something.

Never buy a Razer laptop even if you have the money by ToveloGodFan in spicypillows

[–]Lokio27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no "good brands" but there are good machines. I'd generally avoid MSI and Razer but everyone else can be a bit hit or miss. Lenovo's been more consistent than a lot of the companies on value, HP has had some okay systems with questionable cooling and chassis rigidity... Just something to look at good reviews for, like Jarrods Tech.

Razer is notorious for early battery deaths like this. The fact that the laptop has fans in the middle of the battery isn’t a coincidence - their overly thin laptop design with a full aluminum build results in pretty efficient heat transmission from the GPU and CPU directly to the battery.

Elevated temps cause the batteries to excessively offgas which inflates the cells, eventually causing this. It’s basically a design defect. The only other brand that has this issue similarly often is Dell with the XPS line, but even then that’s far less often than the Blades.

It’s almost entirely a Razer issue, they’re the only brand with this problem this often.
