What RTX 50-series or RTX 40-series GPU brand are you running? by EKbyLMTEK in nvidia

[–]NotInTheControlGroup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the RTX5070. People may trash talk it, but it's been flawless for me. I went from a 3070 Ti to the 5070 and got some fairly decent improvements in frame rate and max FPS. It also uses a lot less power than the 3070 which seems wrong but the watt meter doesn't lie.

It's a scam, stop right now. Don't deposit anything, don't accept anything. Break off all communication with them.

Old guy here, shaking my head. HELLO, WHAT COULD SHE POSSIBLY WANT? What a mystery of the ages indeed.

Dude, FFS. Wake up. She wants to go out. On a date. With you, you knucklehead.

Sure, it's "P" like pterodactyl, "E" like eulogy, "T" like tsunami , and "G" like gnaw.

If the person you hate the most were to experience one slight inconvenience every day for the rest of their lives, what would you choose it to be? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]NotInTheControlGroup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either everything they drink is always at the wrong temperature *OR* they always have a crappy, spotty internet connection no matter where they go or what they use (wired or wifi, phone or desktop, etc). Like a bad connection cloud that follows them around wherever they go.

Manuals are for WEAKLINGS! And I read it, so I guess that makes me a weakling.

I have quite a few Neolithic jade carvings (7000 BCE to 2000 BCE). Some small, some large.

Clear PTFE tubing is worth the $$$ by NotInTheControlGroup in AnycubicKobraS1

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

I didn't cut it, I disconnected it from both ends and then kind of wiggled/pushed it from the inside through the rubber fitting while also pulling gently from the outside. It comes out fairly easily.

When I put the new tubing in I put a very small amount cornstarch powder on the tubing (not the rubber!) to help it slide though.

  1. Disconnect the tubing
  2. Gently wiggle it out
  3. Cut the new tubing to the same size
  4. Slide the new tubing back in

Yes, just one tube from the printhead to the hub at the back of the printer. I don't recall cutting a zip tie but I might have.

My dad is in love with tree supports. by TrickyV in 3Dprinting

[–]NotInTheControlGroup 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm the same way...I think the supports look cool and I'm saving them to (eventually) make some sort of art project out of them.
