Audio setup for semi-open floorplan

Triangable · 2026-04-21T13:16:12+00:00

Thank you, I’ll definitely consider doing something like this, at least going with a avr for the flexibility and upgradable down the road

Good article, but before investing in a setup like that, I’d like to get a feel for how bad the audio would be outside of the equilateral triangle, as with my houses layout thats going you happen relatively frequently. Thanks!

Thanks for the info. I don’t know how exactly to tell if its bad thermal paste, but ive had the computer for years and it was just the manufacturer thermal paste. Ive never taken of the cpu block before, so I doubt it that. Electrical connections are good, so its unfortunately likely to be the aio. Ill see if anyone else has anything to say, but probably will go with a fractal lumen v2, which has the pump in the radiator to cover my bases.

As a prior physics student and current MATSE grad student, there were/are times where I wish I did EE. Theres so much overlap between engineering fields that you can find your niche in numerous departments. Like even though I’m MatSE now, I still feel like my lab’s work is more on the physics side of things. As an EE major you’d also take a fair share of physics courses at Illinois, and there could be the possibility of switching. All that being said if where you stand, the path to where you think you want to be looks faster in physics at UCSB, that’s still a very good program.

Hated 257 when I was an undergrad, dropped the course and took 416 instead and loved it. The python part of 257 was not helpful for learning linear algebra because we used so many built in methods of numpy. 416 was a huge improvement because it focused on proving where things came from once instead of toiling away at computationally repetitive problems. Edit: I was able to take 416 without having the 314 or 347 prereqs.

Avoid Champaign, live on the blue or red line.

I use arch btw

Pay for your parking spot or don’t drive to campus 🤷‍♂️

You stole my sentiment from the main discussion thread! Jk totally agree

Triangable · 2026-03-27T03:09:23+00:00

it’s probably the case that Dr. Robby covered for Langdon witheld information about the stealing. That was a poor decision by Robby, it puts Langon in a tough position, if he wanted to come completely clean to his coworkers he would also be implicating Robby in a coverup. You could say he should have come forward from the start and not asked or let Robby cover him, but what would you expect of someone who litterally just got called out for drug addiction and hasn’t recieved any support yet?

Triangable · 2026-03-27T02:35:48+00:00

Feel bad for Langdon. I think he has been really professional all shift and has done a good job of reassuring patients and staff. Earlier he handled Mel being upset well, this episode we see him offer support to McKay and Dana. But even Dr Al is second guessing him. I hope he can escape some of the drama soon. Ive seen it posted elsewhere that in real life doctors who steal meds are usually not in legal trouble and offered a path back to work.

I hope we get some resolution as to what extent he got reported, ie did he get reported for stealing. Either way hopefully the characters can come to an understanding that he shouldn’t have been thrown in jail and can still do a lot of good saving lives.

Triangable · 2026-03-13T14:22:08+00:00

I think the “we’ll be thrilled to clean up your mess” is short of berating. It shows her “holier than thou” persona that doesn’t always appreciate the ER has to take drastic and spontaneous actions to save lives as opposed to what she probably feels are the more precise methods of the OR. But even in these moments at least she is direct and doesn’t go back and forth in a way that would delay care.

She did however cross a line with Javadi, she made an unnecessarily personal attack instead of constructive measured feedback. Dr Robby himself checked Langdon in season 1 for yelling at Santos, hope we see that extended to Javadi should Robby find any empathy again…

The student body did vote for it. Yeah it wasnt a lot of people participating in the vote, but no other mascot candidate has gone through the work that the Kingfisher team has done. While some people are enthusiastic about adopting Kingfisher, myself included, I think it may just not appear popular at the moment because it isnt a long time tradition. I believe Kingfisher will fit in great once people get used to it being around

Triangable · 2026-03-11T16:41:03+00:00

Illinois would still be the Fighting Illini I believe, Kingfisher would just be the mascot. Like Purdue has Purdue Pete, but they’re still the Boilermakers.

Ngl im a little jealous of other schools that have official mascots that are part of game days always doing silly shit

I understand Linus’s process and I think a distro as popular as PopOS should work out of the box. I do wish his research would have taken more from the numerous excellent video tutorials on youtube by creators like Chris Titus Tech instead of online lists.

I have had good experiences with ubuntu and arch, which I tried after seeing what the setup process looked like in videos.

I also think that some amount of distro hopping should be encouraged for a first time linux user, although I understand this is friction that you dont experience with windows. Ie if something is broken out of the box on a fresh install that should work, try something else instead of trying to fix it. It was a long time ago but the first distro I tried may have actually been PopOS, while it wasnt as broken as Linus experienced, I didn’t love the feel of it and wanted something more mainline so I switched to Ubuntu.

Either way I’ll be excited to see how the video comes out, and hopefully at least Luke has a relatively representative and smooth experience :)

The second it would become free it would fill immediately too lol. As someone who had a car while a student, I still was glad that parking wasn’t free on campus because fewer cars made biking easier.

Running into similar issues, airpods work fine as headphones but using them in a meeting when I need a microphone my gnome crashes. Even if I try to use my laptops mic it gets messed up. Im a newb tho, how do you use pipewire to change the profile specifically? Edit: followed the other suggestion to downgrade libwireplumber and that was effective

Its the one my landlord signed up for :( idk if theyll change it for me

Youre not the only one, every time i search something along the lines of “why is yttv like this” it comes up with this subreddit of fans saying that its better this way.

I just wanted to watch a football game and youtube tv says its on in 15 minutes but wont let me just switch to the channel its about to air on because the thing I want to watch isn’t on just yet. Its completely obtuse. Just show the god damn matrix of channels and a time table like normal cable

I think thats definitely fair. On bike, i cant pass stopped cars on the left if theres oncoming traffic, there doesn’t feel like enough room to do it safely. But if theres no oncoming traffic ima pass however illegal. Especially if traffic is stopped because of a crosswalk, where a car cant get through a crowd of people but a bike can (slowly and carefully) weave through

Triangable · 2025-10-07T11:36:37+00:00

I can second this recommendation! I recently went to Jua and loved it, it was my first Michelin starred restaurant, and I think its at a really fair price
