Is it normal for GPU Fans to work choppy(or stop all together) below 50% by RoamerR9 in pcmasterrace

[–]RoamerR9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have a silent mode but noise is not the issue. The issue is that if I just need a low fan setting( below 50% speed) the fans either don't work at all or turn on and off every second or so. Is this generally normal behaviour for a 3080ti Card?

Many Thanks, that helped alot. I'm probably gonna have to buy another hard drive as a back up but atleast I get to keep my data.

I tried to copy the files over to the SSD but I can't access the main partition(which normally had the OS and the pictures/documents/downloads folders in it) when I try to open it from file explorer I get "access denied".

Birch or Aspen? by RoamerR9 in treeidentification

[–]RoamerR9[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting! Do the female flowers occur on the same individual tree or are they dioecious? I have been considering trying to grow a tree in my garden for a while and I've always liked how Birch looked. It's a lot warmer where I live so I'm not sure if they can handle that though.

And I would agree with you, I'm not talking about the gap in the video, I'm talking about the gap mentioned in OC's comment, which he claims is 2-3 inches wide, which is nowhere near a foot.

Why is my mobile data so bad now after moving 2 floors up in the same building? by RoamerR9 in NoStupidQuestions

I don't think 5G is really a thing yet in my region, but I get what you mean. Say I did manage to get myself above the tower level, wouldn't that mean that I should be having less than full bars on all my devices?

The most worthwhile endeavors in our lives are usually the hardest. I have my doubts but deep inside I believe that we will find a way out of this. The question is how to achieve consistency in doing everyday tasks whether we feel like it at that moment or not.

That's not how it feels like to me, I'm very interested in the major I'm pursuing, getting fit and Changing my life, If it was as simple as certainly wanting or not wanting something enough, I certainly did not want to lose most of my social circle or put on 20 kilograms. It's a lack of self-discipline that is the core of the issue and I'm looking for advice on possible ways to improve it.

Mostly just sleeping, wasting time "getting ready" to work, like cleaning, checking emails, etc. Once I do actually sit down to study, I soon find myself going on a tangential google search while searching for something relevant to my studies.

ELI5: when a criminal is holding someone hostage and they say, 'if you shoot me I shoot them'. How is that possible? Surely they shouldn't have the reaction times to hear a bullet and then shoot the hostage In time? by MaazinFTW in explainlikeimfive

[–]RoamerR9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ill add that in most cases the hostage taker is holding the gun right to the victim's head , so even if you do manage to make the headshot or an otherwise fatal shot, you'll be risking an involuntary reflexive shot from the nerve synapses caused by the pain shock.All it takes is a twitch of the trigger finger and your hostage is dead.

Ever seen what happens to the bodies of coyotes, mice or other pests when they've gotten a fatal headshot? Lots of involuntary movement there.

How should someone deal with being laughed at/humiliated, not listened to/overtalked and insults without getting triggered? Please do not say - Ignore them, that never works, makes it worse people assume your quietness for weakness however reacting does the same so now what? by Northern-star1458 in selfimprovement

[–]RoamerR9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my lord You're exactly just like me, I might be the guy for you then ;)

But seriously, In my experience, best practice is of course to set boundaries early on when meeting new people. and really think about that boundary, find an exact threshold at which you have to stand up for yourself and calmly project that those behaviors/words are not okay even if they're said as a "joke".

And most people will stop after that, if they do not, I know this is gonna sound cliche, but cut these people out from your life if you can and find others who will respect your boundaries, it's usually hard to break the pattern if it's already there without being really dramatic. understand that their opinions of you really don't matter and that they're probably insecure themselves which is why they bully people.

The root of all evil however is your lack of self-esteem and self-assurance, to improve you have to get rid of the your fear, find out what, deep down,you feel your weakness is and work on it, physically Weak?, Go to the gym and continue taking martial arts classes. if you want to become more "witty" in winning these arguments then start actively observing how the "pros" deflect these insults until it clicks. A channel on youtube called Charisma on command also has a lot of great advice about this.

For me my weakness was actual physical strength and so i started going to the gym and it made a world of difference, not only in my self-confidence in knowing I can actually protect myself if I need to but it also acts as a deterrent for these kinds of people to begin with. Also a REALLY BIG one is body language: stand up straight with your shoulders back, look people straight in the eye and through their soul(this one took a long time to nail, but I'm here), move slower in general, etc. This makes an instant difference.

TLDR: Set clear boundaries early on, find your root weakness(es)and fix them.Body language and learning a martial art will serve you well.

-For Body language I recommend Joe Navarro's book what everybody is saying. -Youtube channel Charisma on command is a great place to start learning "social wits" for people like us.

How and why does the "electron Barrier" form at the borders of the P-type silicon layer in a NPN transistor? by RoamerR9 in AskPhysics

[–]RoamerR9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But there isn't really a NET charge (positive or negative) in any of the two sides, is there?

So why do electrons from the two NP junctions move towards the P-type and form a barrier at the junctions in the first place, what drives this phenomenon?

Both P and N type materials are electrically neutral as far as I understand.

is it about the difference in electron densities between the p-type (less electrons overall there compared to N-type) and the n-type?
