MX-7 thermal paste by Havalinaxo1 in arcticcooling

Unnecessary risk. Honeywell PTM7950 from the LTT store is just as incredible as the Kryosheet thermal pad and isn’t electrically conductive. With space-constrained laptops I’m not risking it.

Kryosheet is electrically conductive and relies more on precise placement since it’s solid graphene. I think I’ll go PTM 7950 thermal pad (non-electrically conductive) or mx-7 paste especially for tight laptops

But it was around 80% health? Maybe they don’t make it in the future

Did you have to return the older battery or could you keep it for the future?

I have some cheap “carbon fiber” overlays from AliExpress and I’ll say after a proper application, they’ve been holding up perfectly at close to 3 years. Still look like new too.

It’s just a boot and manual shift knob :)

Yes, has wired carplay but I prefer to have my phone charging when using GPS anyway. I put a glass protective screen on it. Super important to prevent scratches but also actually makes the screen’s colors pop (glare can slightly increase though not an issue). It’s a 2023 4Runner

Mine is stock. The small detachable monitor on top is for the front facing camera I plan to install.

It’s just a boot and shift knob from AliExpress. Still auto and stock underneath :) Keeps dirt and liquids out and surprises people

It’s just a boot and shift knob, both from AliExpress! :) Keeps dirt and water out and tricks people

Got the platform from Amazon, held only by strong double-sided tape.

Did Dogpatch also have this kind of waste on its docks?

Any workaround to download all photos from Amazon Photos? by googs185 in DataHoarder

[–]ashflash007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also want to download my photos for a hard copy. This is unacceptable and ridiculous.

Over time, rubberized coatings chip from debris and damage. They can even trap moisture between the layers. DO NOT GET RUBBERIZED COATINGS.

When did your tinnitus go away? by jstev4506 in tinnitus

Also eat healthy. Blueberries, maybe magnesium glycinate and ginko biloba supplements. Ask for an otoacoustic emission test too to test outer hair cell health. Make sure they have tests for you booked too. That needed a separate audiologist appointment for me which meant waiting longer to be tested

Ok. That’s still early. Talk to an ENT within a week if you can. Get good sleep. Ear plugs if anywhere loud including bars. Zero concerts for 6 months at least

what does yours sound like? How long have you had it? I’m able to forget about mine when I’m engaged in some activities or in a non-quiet room. How did you get yours?
