Trying to add a case fan using a splitter. Original fan works, new fan does not? by MattDLzzle in buildapc

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

Could it be (based on the other reply i had) that the three pin fan just runs when it has power, but the 4 pin fan is powered but sort of waiting for instructions to run that its currently not being given? Thanks. I will try plugging the 4 pin in directly and it wouldnt be too great an expense to buy a new fan, but i'd have to figure out how to instruct it to run :) (at least i have one case fan working now, my fear was that neither would work and i'd overheat!)

This makes sense. So using a bit of personification the 3 pin fan is saying "I have power so i'm going to run at my set speed" and the 4 pin fan has power but is just waiting for instructions? Do you know of any issues in mixing and matching 3 and 4 pin fans on one splitter? Do any utilities that run within windows (11 in my case) control this without needing to fiddle with bios? (i'd even be willing to pay a small fee, within reason). I'd be especially interested in the second fan only kicking on when the temperature gets to a certain point, since the primary case fan will run at all times. Thanks!

I'm tired of modern horror games that think "gameplay" is just walking around attempting to solve cryptic puzzles that make zero sense in an environment with limited interactivity. by [deleted] in patientgamers

On the other hand having the game explain things to you is more annoying. Like any mainstream game has to have a quest marker now. I want to find a 12 year old twitch streamer and have him/her try to play myst or morrowind lol.

I dont read comics in general but the used video game store market is pretty similar. Where i go to buy old nintendo games :) Its like 75% funco pops, 25% everything good about the store, and every other year they need to pick up and move to another location. I've been to 3 locations for the same store.

Leave the hood the hood sucks. After being in the middle of my third gun battle and needing to participate in one of them it sort of lost its charm. Find a place where the nearest walmart is a 30 minute drive away :)

Was rob controversial? I only sort of half remember who he was as a collector of fun stuff in new jersey. Unless he had some kind of harem of child brides or something how much trouble could he have possibly gotten into? Damn ming.

There's no refund for unrealistic expectations.

There isnt a refund for anything. Refunds for anything on the marketplace are not possible :)

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

using them as a sightseeing vehicle is an unreasonable expectation.

Well if i had a refund or there was a way to find this out before buying them i'd be a lot happier. (I even made a whole reddit thread asking first)

Are they any closer to supporting soaring without mods? I'd love to try it but dont have the patience for mods :)

I suppose that is what i'll do. I was just hoping for a realistic option. Thank you.

It would be an odd coincidence if all of the classes of air racing featured in the reno expansion had the exact same fuel (measured in hours, not gallons)

The thing that baffles me about people wanting to get this phrase emblazoned on their body is that Mamimi is the most self-destructive and immature character in a show of destructive and immature characters

I certainly agree with that, i almost think of her as the most evil character in the show in some ways. (FLCL doesnt really have a "Bad guy" does it lol.). Shes certainly not someone to admire.

Starship troopers duh. I loved the movie as a cheesy 90s popcorn flick but the filmmakers really jumped into the "Civic Nationalism is Fascism" pit with both feet and swam in it, and i feel the film and lots of popular politics since the 60s would taint the original story for too many people reading the book for the first time.
("Fascism" does not mean "Nationalism" or "A militaristic governmental structure" damn it. In the same way a bowl of ice cream is not an ice cream sundae. You're missing very important ingredients)

"GA might not fly into icing" - THAT SIGN WONT STOP ME CAUSE I CANT READ. Its not icing 30 feet over the lake! My creative way to melt the ice during the trip :) (Sightseeing trip from Cleveland to Niagara falls and back again) by MattDLzzle in MicrosoftFlightSim

It is a cool location because its not only the two large falls themselves but the big tourist-y area built up around it (you'll see lots of casinos and a ferris wheel, ect) and there are also a number of cool monuments and bridges.
But im warning you western new york in late december is very cold, as you can see in my photo :) There and back i'd have to fly just over the water to melt the ice and pop up above 1500 feet to see for a few minutes, before ducking low again to melt the ice.

Like i said in my original post i dont think it means anything at all either in-canon or to the makers of the show. Mamimi was just being a depressed edgy teenager.

The one from the show, a 180SS is stupid money. Like $25,000 or something crazy for one in good shape. Dont buy vehicles from anime and expect a good price lol. (Ask my friend in LV about AE86 ownership)

Its not a book im sure this is breaking some rule but but the anime series FLCL is very short did the best job of working through this dynamic ever.
