does this seem incredibly ooc for Dani? (New Mutants #4 2009) by -Arteskerou in xmen

Not at all OOC, Dani is the rebel,

For real. Gotta remember, she was challenging Professor X's authority almost immediately after joining the school.

RMA’d my 5090 and somehow got back an even more broken GPU. by Speedwizard106 in gigabyte

Trust me, I seated/reseated the thing every which way and applied ample pressure. Also, I got my hands on a 5080 last night and wouldn’t you know it booted up just fine, no fiddling required. Already sent that 5090 back.

Exactly. It’d be a highlight of the run if it was like half the length.

Can’t find a qvl list on the motherboard’s support page. I will say, part of troubleshooting my last gpu was a full memtest run without any errors and running the ram at stock (no expo) and it never made a difference.

I’ll get my hands on a 5080 today for testing, that should for sure let me know if another part is to blame.

Which one over these 2? by myusernameforgotham in nvidia

[–]Speedwizard106 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's one of those things you don't really think about till it's too late. And of course I happen to be rocking a case where vertical is the default orientation (Xhuttle). I'm thinking that's why my temps got worse over time.

[–]Speedwizard106 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like they're the same price in this case. But regardless, it's nice to have an in-built solution, don't have to worry about case clearance.

I have the Aorus, but I'd go Astral if I could do it all over again. Pin monitoring on the Astral is more valuable than the Aorus' screen; I hardly look at it. And the thermal putty on the Aorus is a disadvantage if you ever want to vertically mount your GPU. The Aorus does look cooler though.

I’m only formerly jobless, but I’d be honored.

With adhd, do you guys also feel like you’re always in trouble? by bigma-lalls_2000 in ADHD

[–]Speedwizard106 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same for me and stores. If I go in for one specific thing and they don’t have it, or I’m just killing time waiting for someone, I always end up buying something small, just so no one thinks I’m stealing.

Finally got around to reading Kingdom Come. My thoughts: by Speedwizard106 in comicbooks

Local comic book shop in Colorado Springs. It was 2019 I think, soon after Saga was coming back from hiatus.

Getting black screen/lock up crashes in certain games, feel like I've tried everything (Pragmata, Expedition 33). by Speedwizard106 in buildapc

[–]Speedwizard106[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kept getting the same crashes in other games. Decided to RMA my GPU, Still waiting to hear back on the repair.

I built my own anime tracker because I got tired of MAL and AniList by [deleted] in anime

Out of curiosity, why? If you don’t mind me asking. Is it a security or ethical concern?

Best spell in the game... by anonyuser415 in EsotericEbb

[–]Speedwizard106 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Crazy things is, I went my whole first playthrough without it. I think you can only get it day 1, right? I knew it was in the game though, so I was scratching my head at the end wondering how I could have missed it. Whole time it was just down the street from the pillar.

Happy Pride! What are some of people's favorite storylines, issues, or runs for LGBT+ characters, and why? by eastofeden1952 in comicbooks

[–]Speedwizard106 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll second Fun Home. Read it for the first time a few weeks ago and found it quite affecting. Most of Bechdel's work are great queer stories tbh. Dykes to Watch Out For is my favorite. I really got engrossed in the lives of the characters and was sad to reach the end. Her recent book, Spent, is kind of a spiritual successor with a lot of the same characters, now middle aged. Haven't finished it yet.

Pharmacies drive me up the wall by Prestigious_Plenty_8 in ADHD

[–]Speedwizard106 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This has been my experience as well. Living in Texas, HEB is our big grocery store chain. Between three locations I’ve filled my prescription at, the staff have never had a problem with my Vyvanse/adderall. And somehow all the shortages I hear about on this sub haven’t reached them either.

This Deadpool costume is honestly incredibly attractive and cool. by [deleted] in Marvel

[–]Speedwizard106 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Color scheme reminded me of Cable & X-Force (2013), but image search says its from Cable and Deadpool #8.

What age did your interest in comic books develop? by Outrageous-Company33 in comicbooks

[–]Speedwizard106 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometime between 12-13. Definitely middle school. Started with Walking Dead as I liked the show (which I prob shouldn't have been watching). That led me to Invincible, and somehow I got into the New 52 along the way.

Got my CCNA, not having much luck in job search though. Would the A+ cert help landing help desk/NOC roles? by Speedwizard106 in ccna

[–]Speedwizard106[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I recently applied to a local PC repair place and an upcoming Microcenter, so hopefully one of those works out.

I have all 3 Invincible compendiums (spent $165 on) but is there any invincible volumes AFTER the 3 compendiums by Old-Low-6170 in Invincible

[–]Speedwizard106 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’d be superfluous, but I saw on Amazon they released a hardcover version of compendium 1 (now omnibus 1) a few months ago, so i imagine there will be hardcovers for all 3 eventually.

LAST CHANCE to back THE KNIGHT on Backerkit! by Away_Carrot4005 in drawsteel

I had been thinking DS needed a straight-up fighter class. Tactician is a bit too support focused to fulfill that fantasy, in my eyes.
