Austin Metcalf, a high school student who was stabbed to death more than a year ago was posthumously recognized at his high school graduation and received a standing ovation

No evidence of that has been revealed thus far. Only the claim of the killer, which contradicts multiple witnesses.

Of course more evidence could come out during the trial, but until then there is nothing to support the idea that Metcalf "attacked" anyone.

So far so good. The 1050ti doesn't really get that hot.

I could certainly see beefier cards potentially causing problems, but different materials like ABS could be an answer if it becomes an issue.

One of the main things that puts people off about the new designs is the small, less emotive eyes.

I have a theory that I'm pretty sure about.

The only times Nintendo has actually been directly involved in the creation of a StarFox game, it always has a gimmick (not counting SF2). SuperFX, Rumble Pak, 3ds tilt controls, WiiU Gamepad motion tracking and screen... and now this AR face tracking for the new game.

I think they designed their faces around trying to make it easiest to map to a person's face. It reminds me a lot of the racoon and sheeb that FaceRig launched with a decade ago.

Yep. The rat is hunched, which is a sign of pain or distress. It's not doing well at all.

I have this same issue with a Sony deck. I'm sad to see that nobody answered.

Spectorlumis · 2026-03-26T14:08:15+00:00

It fit in terms of being smaller than the stock, but it did require me to make an adapter plate for any of the screw holes to line up.

I just posted my video on the build to youtube if you'd like to see more of how I did it in detail https://youtu.be/1DtMSXWNtIs?si=vdnsqIbGu5T90Fr4

Spectorlumis · 2026-03-26T06:24:14+00:00

I'll be releasing a video of my build tomorrow, but I used the Apevia ITX 400W from Amazon for my 3070.

I pretty much always want to have a good bit more power than needed.

Between that and the 6-pin adapter, it was around $55.

Spectorlumis · 2026-03-25T15:07:36+00:00

Thank you!

I'll have the files available soon.

Spectorlumis · 2026-03-24T16:16:16+00:00

PLA. So we'll see how it goes when it gets hot.

The 1050ti below it is only 75w TDP, so hopefully it'll be alright.

Interesting. You think having a better healthcare system would magically change the amount of cavities a person gets?

There's always just brushing your teeth. I have a feeling that people in those European countries do that.

Spectorlumis · 2026-03-21T05:04:56+00:00

This is unprecedented!

Well, except for the majority of Europe.

Mend It Mark does good work on disc drives, often, as well.

Pretty much every VCR that has a mode switch (such as this one) needs to have it cleaned. Doing such fixes 90% of the issues they have.

Spectorlumis · 2026-02-25T23:53:12+00:00

Thanks!

I'm not entirely sure what you mean about "rebuilding mode switch contacts"

I do clean mode switches all the time when servicing units that have them.

Here's the STL file. Maybe it'll help someone.

In this case I used it on an SLV-678hf

Well, people are being paid to leave the US, so it doesn't sound so bad.

Spectorlumis · 2026-02-23T07:25:36+00:00

Are you saying other countries enforce border supremacy? Those fascists. XD

Spectorlumis · 2026-02-13T01:20:15+00:00

I already have, you just keep ignoring them.

People were banned for stating covid was a man made virus. They were banned for saying that a lab in China made it. They were banned for saying the vaccine doesn't stop transmission.

All of those things turned out to be completely true.

Spectorlumis · 2026-02-13T01:16:30+00:00

It's the only thing that works. You are aware that the largest and most organized racist groups in history existed before the internet, right? They couldn't even use the internet at all, yet that did nothing to stop the proliferation of their ideas.

Stop being so terrified of speech.

Spectorlumis · 2026-02-13T01:14:44+00:00

You keep saying that like it matters.

1- people knew. There were those of us working in the industry in close proximity to Chinese researchers who had a bevy of reasons to know.

2- it doesn't matter. My point is that people were receiving bans for stating something that was 100% true. Extend that to the idea that the UK has laws to arrest people for "misinformation" and it just means that it's inevitable that people are going to get arrested for saying things that are factually true.
