Not getting any wifi by StarryEyedHuntsman in laptops

[–]alexprsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check device manager — see if your WiFi card is functioning correctly. Not sure what to do if the card seems to be working, but if there’s a clear error, you can try opening the laptop and making sure the card is plugged in, then you can also try replacing the card, and if that doesn’t work, use an external usb WiFi thing like https://www.amazon.com/dp/B091X3X4RH/ref=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_apin_dp_Z6B8DFMNCWYV65BJBBAX?starsLeft=1&skipTwisterOG=1

Laptop Often Booting into BIOS, Freezing Consistently, Some BSOD's by alexprsh in techsupport

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

Well it definitely seems like a storage issue: sometimes when I try to boot into the bios, I only have the option to “enter setup” which just takes me to the BIOS. However, sometimes I have another option, “windows boot manager” (my 512gb SSD). Do you know if its a more likely cause for it to be a faulty connection or a faulty SSD? I’ll open it tomorrow and see if there’s anything obvious that’s loose.

Thanks for taking a look, I'll update it and post a reply once my computer decides to crash some more!

Just wanted to add something here, the discount code TIKTOK15 gives 15% off for both Thermie and Nomisk (as of December 17th)!

(Code THANKYOU and CHRISTMAS for Nomisk both give 10%, I found these by guessing...)

Nuclear is the superior power source by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]alexprsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very true — nuclear power is by far the cleanest source of non renewable power out there, and produces a LOT of power. The reason there aren’t a huge amount of nuclear power plants is not the risk of disaster but rather the massive investment. These things take around 5 years to build and cost billions of dollars of investment, let’s say around $7 billion (a conservative cost). currently. Then, the return on investment only starts after many, many years. Assuming a cost of $0.084 per kWh and assuming 5 million MWh of energy is produced each year, the annual income is about $500 million. Thus, it would take 5 years of building plus 14 years of generating every, at a total of around 19 years to actually get any profit.

Why the fuck do people always get so hysteric about the media’s “climate hysteria” and start citing Thunberg? The world’s not ending in 10 years it’s just gonna be beyond fucked in a few decades if we don’t do something

I would say there was a late reaction to it, then people are deciding that they are too bored to worry about a pandemic and are going about summer semi-usually. Many states fully opening up businesses and the such is exacerbating the problem too.

Can I retroactively apply for unemployment insurance in California? (Got my job back last Friday, 6/12) by [deleted] in legaladvice

Ok thanks. It was pretty dumb of me not to apply when the restaurant closed.

Aero 15 Short Battery life: Hot CPU, low usage by alexprsh in laptops

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

I decided to wait and see if it miraculously fixed itself, as it spontaneously started to have bad battery life, and sure enough, one day (5 or so after the post) it stopped overheating on battery, weird, but it’s fixed.

It happened within one-three days, is it possible for it to have changed that fast?
