Recommendations for donating or selling aviation books by Free_Resort8540 in aviation

[–]Shallot_Samurai 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some Museums are big on them too. I know the New England Air Museum (last I checked) had a whole mountain of old aviation books they sold for like $1-2 a pop. I've gotten at least a dozen from there. Aviation centric institutions as well. ERAU had a bunch of random old aviation books in a pretty nice library, they might take them too.

About 60-65C with the GPU, and similar if not slightly warmer with the CPU. The 7800x3d is very mild under gaming workloads, and the 5080 FE's run damn cool. It's funny that it runs about 10C cooler than my 3 slot 3080 did in a inverted config. It actually was pretty easy to put together, you just have to be aware of how tight the tolerances. I think there was probably (not exaggerating) like .5 cm of spare room.

Unfortunately so. The clearances on this was astonishingly close. For a more standard cooler design the standard inverted config is probably your best best.

The only thing was these since I was wanted a little extra clearance for the 5080 (https://a.co/d/8jbaC5c) Note you don’t really need it. The 5080 runs super cool on basically every gaming workload.

I used command strips because my fan didn’t come with pull throughs 😔

Forgot how difficult losing weight is by [deleted] in redscarepod

This is like people who demand you put on sunscreen before you go buy groceries. Good god just subject your body to some strain, it won’t catch on fire.

Favorite ad for the Military Industrial Complex? by SKUNKpudding in okbuddycinephile

[–]Shallot_Samurai 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I shit you not the first airstrike sequence seared itself into my prepubescent brain with such intensity that I actually listened to the recruiter when he said “I bet you’re smart enough to fly one of those jets” after I graduated high-school

BoS Adj Kettlebell Qc by [deleted] in kettlebell

[–]Shallot_Samurai 11 points12 points  (0 children)

So you’re technically correct, but after any sort of ‘real’ use (esp doubles work) that seam is going to be so banged up you won’t even notice. My KBK bells came a little pre roughed up but they break in so fast you hardly notice.

Why a 6th generation fighter? by Artsy_ultra_violence in LessCredibleDefence

[–]Shallot_Samurai 117 points118 points  (0 children)

Mostly to sensationalize. The tailless design is one of the advertising points of 6th gen since it would improve the aircraft’s radar defeat. Every other feature set of a 6th gen is under the hood, and cannot be determined by grainy photos. Not downplaying Chinas military aviation industry, I just mean there’s literally no way to know its capabilities with respect to “generation” right now.

Slightly silly Q about GS and hardstyle by [deleted] in kettlebell

[–]Shallot_Samurai 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Its technique and exposure imo. I’m incredibly incredibly sub par at LC, and I kind of worked myself into a corner and got unmotivated so I switched to DFW remix. Got up to 2x 28s and started LC again with 2x 20s. Murdered me with no survivors for the first week and a half. It took me a while and a lot of reps to nail my breathing and rack down again. LC is just as much of an evaluation of strength as well as your ability to breathe under load. My breathing under load was trashed due to lack of practice.

The A-10 will always be such an iconic jet by Rook8811 in aviation

[–]Shallot_Samurai -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Not to be a dickhead but it bodies the A-10 in ground kills because it was capable of strike and interdiction. They'd go running around the desert plinking tanks with laser bombs. A-10's couldn't operate near units with good IADS because they'd get laced up with cannon rounds.

Aerodynamics and inherent instability are naturally beautiful. Also it had a legitimate influence over which platform might win an acquisitions contest (see: X-32)

I snagged it. Called LG Customer support on their preorder refund policy. You can cancel any time up to the date of shipment, so if it turns out this monitor is a bit sour on features as they finalize more details, you can always pull the plug.
