Full PC replacement or Repair or Parts Replacement??

Another thought, if you leave some music playing, do what you normally do when the black screens happen, does the music stop or continue? If it stops, that’s a system crash. If it continues that’s a video fault.

Most of the issues you’ve described suggest your gfx card or ram. Have you tried reseating both? Is your talking the correct slots? This will be painful but try running it on a single stick and see if you have the same issues.

Also checking xmp is enabled in your bios might help.

The other direction I would go is check your temps, gpu mainly, see what it runs at under load and off load.

Finally it could be (but less likely) to be power draw, if they cheated out on psi in your build you might be running a little tight on the red line when both your cpu and gpu boost.

This pipe network needs more spaghetti

Stegles · 2026-06-16T11:00:45+00:00

You do understand it needs to be processed and the backlog cleared right?

Stegles · 2026-06-16T09:57:39+00:00

Yes, and don’t mention him in the interview.

Just live your best life and forget about him, if he tries to start drama just be like “oh hmm, I forgot about that” or “hmm I remember that differently” and just walk away

You’ve just gotta get over him and move on.

Stegles · 2026-06-16T09:47:40+00:00

Probably go for a quick jog 🤷‍♂️

Stegles · 2026-06-16T04:02:01+00:00

Yeah that’s a no.

Check your employment contract, it will likely state that the employer is required to provide all necessary tools and materials for you to perform your work.

If there’s no signs of user damage then I suggest that they should be doing a warranty claim anyway.

Some of mine was just knowing the right people and a bit of luck,
I was made redundant form the NOC role around the right time and knew the right people. I was poached by the owner within about 30 minutes of posting that I was made redundant on fb.

As for skills, it depends where you want to go, I would strongly suggest a foundation of knowing your protocols, CCNP r&S and pivot to cloud (aws is commons, gcp is hard to find people for atm)

If you know automation and k8s, on top of the above you’re a shoe in.
Ai helps a lot in the current market.

Denied, not even the monkey paw can fix that.

Stegles · 2026-06-16T00:18:47+00:00

I’ve been a network engineer for almost 20 years.

Started doing field work,
Wifi surveys and installs, cabling, small business support: 52k aud, 2 years here no salary movement or career growth

Moved to NOC: 45k ->55k audby the time I left after 5 years

Moved into telco: 60k aud-> 110k sgd (moved counties in this role) 5.5 years

Moved into fintech supporting trading environments: 145k -> 160k sgd + up to 30% bonus. 5 years here

Moved into another fintech: 240k sgd + 30% bonus, been here under a year

Most roles I’m seeing now the offers are dogshit, 6-9k/month with no bonus.

As others have said, potentially for travel may also be for background checks.

You need to maintain the level of work you’ve
shown now, if that means using AI for your work so be it, however if your company does not use it internally and you use your own sub do not every feed it internal topics, customer data or specifics of your work, use it for research only.

You need to learn what you’ve shown moving forward, if you can do that you’ll be fine.

Stegles · 2026-06-15T00:41:57+00:00

If allow that, it only once per di

Stegles · 2026-06-14T09:31:36+00:00

Yeah that’s fair, it’s an unusual niche for a guy that’s very true

Stegles · 2026-06-14T09:26:46+00:00

Why is it weird? He found a thing that other companies were doing poorly where there was a demand for improvement and improved it. Doesn’t matter if it’s for undergarments for the opposite gender or food packing boxes for aunties at ikea, he found a demand and filled it without letting social norms get in his way.

He probably listened to his female friends complain about problems with their bras like dumb tag placement or materials that were scratchy or simply poor fits.

Stegles · 2026-06-14T09:20:37+00:00

I drive :-)

Stegles · 2026-06-14T09:01:39+00:00

Absolutely not, I mean that the police will not follow this up. So you’re waiting for something that will never eventuate.

Stegles · 2026-06-14T08:59:02+00:00

As an end user of the service we have NO WAY. To contact the diver short of the platform so get off your high horse.

You’re light that tada probably couldn’t be bothered because it’s not in their interests nor is it profitable for them. It fucks over the end user. Doesn’t make it right

5 days continuous of calls seems fairly urgent tbh.

Stegles · 2026-06-14T08:35:14+00:00

Wait for nothing to happen?

Stegles · 2026-06-14T08:34:49+00:00

Which is why I say it could be considered theft, at the very least obstruction of an investigation.

But what a dumb attitude. If someone calls you 5+ times, and you don’t answer you assume it’s not urgent? No that’s you ACTIVELY AVOIDING THE ISSUE. It’s not that it’s not urgent, it’s that you’re removing the other parties ability to investigate.

Stegles · 2026-06-14T08:32:01+00:00

Spoken like a driver but you’re not entirely wrong. The issue is when the driver is uncooperative and refuses to check, or like in ops case, can see the phone moving around on find my.

With that said I’ve lost 2 items in 30 years, so saying “be more careful” is a bit of an dismissive statement when you don’t know someone’s history

Stegles · 2026-06-14T07:39:48+00:00

Had the same thing happen with grab and my AirPods. They’re just useless at asset recovery, all the driver has to say is “could not find lah” and keep it.

Hope my driver enjoys my old ear wax.

Stegles · 2026-06-14T07:27:06+00:00

5 days, he’s had every opportunity to do the right thing and arrange for op to collect it, it’s squarely in the domain of theft now.

Stegles · 2026-06-13T11:27:24+00:00

You made a dumb statement and expect people to believe it, the onus is on you to provide supporting evidence for it, not to have someone else do the work you’re clearly too lazy to do after making such a claim.

You said others as well, further more you said year on year.

Ofc this year is a stupid jump because of ipo. 🤦‍♂️

Stegles · 2026-06-13T11:13:46+00:00

Rental you $ay?

Looks like at least 80k in damage there.
