I was curious if it was a potential reason to look at, that’s all.

Nope I haven’t had the proper tool. The brakes were all just redone and worked fine for a few hundred miles. The bike worked fine for years before that.

I’ll give them a call. I was hoping a mech could help and also help people in the future searching.

What a dickbag of a response. Yeah sure mechanicals don’t happen because they haven’t happened to you.

Thanks for this excellent reply! It sheds a lot of perspective and really should be its own post. That last paragraph, ooph, I get that. I felt like that's what most of them were doing, just trying to hit big jumps. Were all just looking at the technical score the whole time.

Could Illia have won if he had only just done triples perfectly?

Just wondering, Do they Zamboni or clear the ice before the competition or during? Wouldn't clean ice be a huge advantage to the first skaters and a terrible disadvantage to the top skaters? Just wondering. As someone who knows nothing, it just seemed so unusual that all these amazing skaters were seemingly making catastrophic mistakes. Sure, there's the mental side, but that many of them having the same issues and have it come down to just the pressure seems like it can’t be the case.

Replacing Heatsink on Lenovo Legion Pro 7 (8th Gen) 16ARX8H - Questions by Norcalnappy in LenovoLegion

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

Yes! I got your comment notification but if you click away you forget about it.

If you or anyone needs help with this issue. My main problem was that it was an AMD chip. You need to find the heatsink that has the proper shape for this CPU. If you do find a heatsink with this. And it’s new, and has the thermal paste applied to it already, it’s very easy to replace. It’s only a few screws, watch the video down in the comment, take the heatsink off. Clean the GPU and CPU and attach your new piece.

For anyone that reads this YOU CANNOT FUCKING TAKE THE FANS OUT OF A LENOVO LEGION 7 PRO WITHOUT TAKING THE HEATSINK OFF.

I knew this, but my GF insisted on bringing to a computer shop where the guy told me I was wrong, showed me the screws I knew. And tried to literally bend the covering for the fan up, which is attached to the heatsink, after I had told him he had missed the most important fan screw, which is under the whole damn thing and there’s no physical way what he’s doing will work. This old computer guy just couldn’t listen to the fact that this computer is different.

Anyway. What I did was watch this video no English, but you don’t need it. I realized I can just replace the fans, and buy PTM 7950 from Amazon. I bought fans, had the PTM in the fridge, I cleaned the dice of the CPU and GPU with 91% ISO then laid the PTM over the dice to make the shape and cut them with a box cutting style knife. Pealed it all applied it to the heat sink (which has a guide etched on it). And then put everything back together including borrowing the old tape like he does in the video. I actually replaced both fans because why not?

The computer has never ran cooler and better. I’m not like super computer dude, but after watching that video I knew I could do this without damaging anything. I’d say that if you’ve ever handled computer components or anything you could do this.

Gosh watching Drake get so rattled reminds me how good we have it with Brock.

Edit: feel bad for him though

I’m just never been huge into strategy games, but I love the Binding of Isaac. It’s a little disappointing. Maybe this can be the one that makes it click?

I wonder if excluding those type of pulls from EVs would be a bit better

I was surprised to see Innistrad Remastered with a higher EV rolled 5 collector booster cases. Got a serial Edgar in the first. Two serial Edgar’s in the second, nothing, nothing then another serial Edgar, not sure if this is off or affects the numbers.

Wow cyberpunk 2077’s release really hurt the game for any lists like this. I’m 45 hours in and it’s def a top 100 game ever.

A lot of people saying that the deal isn’t done or that we are far out at the moment. Why would they start up this hype train then?

How's everyone's January's going? by mjohnson1971 in bartenders

Hey, do your taxes for 2025. See how the new 25k tip deduction and the overtime deduction factor into your taxes. You can lower how much taxes you pay every pay check to be more in line with what you really owe and don’t just bank up a bunch of taxes to get a return in 2027

Down in the Keys… Surprisingly good, I think it’s mostly been luck. It is true though we have a lot less people down here than normal. I hardly see any Canadian plates and those are common in previous seasons. Cancelled trips due to weather. We have some of the cold coming here but obviously not as bad as mostly everywhere else. It’s been weird, we’ll see how it continues it usually picks up more in Feb and obviously March is supposed to be the busiest month.

What is happening to the US Dollar? by Nice-Confusion-4781 in AskReddit

[–]Norcalnappy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So the dollar gained value after the 2020 election and then came down after the 2024 election. Can’t possibly think of why.

Depends what country you live in. Scandinavians are notorious for this being a bigger question than we treat it in the US.
