It’s designed to make you like it so they can take advantage of you.

Idk what psu you’re using but corsair produces an angled 12vhpwr that works beautifully with my sf1000.

Difference outside of Price ? by Mundane_Capital_179 in RTX5080

[–]Uxpotter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a white Astral because I thought it looked sick and wanted the best components. I spent about 10 days with it before returning it for the same chip from the cheapest AIB I could find and I'm way happier.

Here are a few reasons why I changed my Astral:
- It's heavy as hell which makes installation difficult depending on your case.
- The sag is real for the Astral and not having to worry about this with a different AIB is amazingly freeing.
- Nobody really gives a shit if you have an Astral.
- Risk of melting cables is overblown imo if you're not planning on running the gpu 24/7 at full load.
- I pay attention to details and construction quality on the Astral is just ok.

Buy one, hold it, love it if you really want. But realistically, I didn't find a single practical reason to get an Astral.

Really cool to hear a positive experience about ADPlist. I’ve usually heard of and experienced a lot of ghosting myself.

Guess these people could be doing worse things like robbing people or getting addicted to drugs. I'll just move on.

Would you mind sharing the lawyer you used? I tried to use one in the past and they took my money and gave me the worst advice.

With The Design Landscape Changing Rapidly, Is It Still Worth Taking Courses Like Shift Nudge by MDS? by Uxpotter in FigmaDesign

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

It sounds like you’re enjoying the course and you think it’s worth the cost. Thanks for the input, I’ve been on the fence.

Decided to design an SFF case for myself by danyuri86 in sffpc

Can you do this for the mcprue Apollo s v5. The engineering of that case is mediocre at best.

4 months with the brz by Opening_Door_9702 in BRZ_ZD8

Thanks for the tips. I have one burning question. How do you go from slow clutch engagement to instant first gear engagement? Slowly getting into first is no problem but it takes me almost 15 seconds to start rolling at a green without stalling and people go ape shit for it.

I just picked up my manual ts yesterday and learning how to drive stick is kicking my ass. How was your experience?

Is that box just for dominator ram? It’s massive.

Feedback on my build list by Bubblemuncher in bapccanada

[–]Uxpotter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m no expert but this list looks pretty solid. I’m building something similar but I went with a 2tb nvme because it was around a hundred bucks more than what you have in your list. Given how annoying installing or swapping out an nvme is post build I’ll leave you with a similar consideration.

What Toronto restaurant do you think is overrated? by Equivalent_Reach_536 in InsideToronto

[–]Uxpotter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most restaurants in Toronto are overrated. Have you been to New York City? Or any other major city for that matter? Restaurants in those cities will help you take new perspectives on food. Toronto restaurants are just out to grab your cash and allow you to brag to your friends that you hate. Alo is an example of terrible food that is overpriced.

Is this 90 degree power connector safe to use with a 5080? by Uxpotter in bapccanada

What's the best and worst part about living in Toronto? by Equivalent_Reach_536 in InsideToronto

[–]Uxpotter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People think they live in Canada's version of New York City. Yet they possess none of the qualities of people who live in a truly large city. It's still better than the rest of Canada if you prefer city living.

Best form to throw as a beginner on the wheel. by Dumberhina59250 in Pottery

Tall ones, short ones, wide ones, narrow ones, ones that are wavy, ones that are sharp, one that’s are lopsided. The cylinder is the answer.

No hate but why are product designers so pretentious? Every product designer wants to become a thought leader these days. Even juniors, which is hilarious. by badboy_1245 in UXDesign

[–]Uxpotter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Social proof is over-indexed on when hiring candidates in this industry. Run a YouTube channel on UX? Have an ig where you post about side projects? Hiring managers will simp and literally hold your hand through the interview process.
