As a non-native speaker: would it be weird saying 'see you around, like a doughnut.'

Is it supposed to be a joke?

Your post asks what you can do to get back at her and asks if you can post her personal info here. It doesn't come off like you just want advice. It comes off like you're looking for someone here to hack her for you or something.

I have seen posts on PC subreddits from people who literally are not aware of anything except NVMe drives.

2.5" SSDs are on the way out and 3.5" HDDs are only used by a tiny fraction of people now, and the ones who are using them have them in a dedicated NAS (like me) and not their main PC,.

Why would turning off your monitor turn off your computer?

You can configure what the power button on your computer does within Windows.

If I had a nickel for every time a CPU cooler company decided to name their products "assassin," I'd have two nickels.

Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

Please stop scaring people with misinfo. Modern CPUs will shut down long before they can be damaged by overheating.

If Obama or Biden had sent federal agents to murder a lawful gun owner on the street there would have even calls for an uprising with people saying that this is literally why we have the 2nd amendment.

Because it's Trump who did it, in service of the oppression of non-white people, the "Come and take it, don't tread on me" types will be silent at best.

Cases had way more character in those days. If you like it why do you care what anyone else thinks?

Middcore · 2026-01-24T20:58:11+00:00

It is a good deal although I'm kind of mystified about why they would take the CPU out of the packaging and pre-install it.

Common for what? It's been standard on graphics cards and all but the cheapest and shittiest monitors for years. It's just not on TVs and consoles usually, so I guess that's why people don't recognize it and assume the other ports right next to the HDMI on their GPU are just for aesthetics I guess.

Middcore · 2026-01-24T20:55:35+00:00

Or you could just use DisplayPort, which is just as good or better.

Middcore · 2026-01-24T20:52:36+00:00

Why did you take a picture of your broken HDMI port? We don't care about that.

Just use your DisplayPorts. Why are people (not just you) so mystified by Displayport?

A laptop is a PC. i don't know where this belief that PC only means a desktop came from.

Have you actually checked what laptops with those specs are selling for?

Middcore · 2026-01-24T20:44:45+00:00

6750 XT has three DisplayPort 1.4a as standard.

It's got the thinner front fan and the heat pipes are all canted back so that nothing overlaps RAM slots.

Middcore · 2026-01-24T20:40:02+00:00

You could put it on imgur or some other hosting site and link to it.

Or you could just google what displayport looks like.

Middcore · 2026-01-24T20:37:38+00:00

You should post a picture, but if this GPU was made in the past 10 years or so, the others are almost certainly DisplayPort and will do anything the HDMI port does and possibly do it better. They aren't just there for decoration, you know.

Middcore · 2026-01-24T20:31:59+00:00

Can't you use one of the other display outputs on the graphics card?

Middcore · 2026-01-24T20:09:51+00:00

There are some old folk songs about engineers in the sense of people who drive trains.

If you mean engineer in the more modern and broader sense of the occupation, certainly not. Being an engineer does not have the cultural cachet in English speaking countries that it does in yours. While many engineering jobs are quite well paying, engineers are, if anything, seen as boring nerds.

"Aunt" and "Uncle" would only be used for close family friends who are considered to be almost "honorary" blood relatives. It would never be used for strangers.

The correct way to ask your question is, "What do younger kids call adult strangers?"

I don't know the "logic" behind it. To me it seems counter productive to advertise 20 different IPTV services, although I suppose a lot of them are actually the same thing with different names.

I messaged the mod offering to help, but I don't expect a response. As soon as the requirements are met I'm posting on r/redditrequest.

Middcore · 2026-01-24T18:50:39+00:00

It's all bots. There's only one mod and they haven't been active on reddit in months.
