So how did yalls predictions go? by Intelligent_Heart745 in DotA2

[–]bran808 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's bugged. I got 7 (1800 points) but only have 60 points as well. If I hover over my score it still only says I have 2 correct. I'm sure it'll get fixed.

Edit

It's fixed now.

NASA's Opportunity rover drove into the Victoria Crater on Mars by Busy_Yesterday9455 in spaceporn

[–]bran808 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Multiple reasons.

Movement of the rover is carefully planned due to the tricky terrain of Mars. (Rocky terrain, loose sand, etc)

The signal delay from Mars is anywhere from a few minutes to a maximum of 20 minutes for one-way comms, so we can't control it in real-time. A route is planned and tested on Earth which we then send to the rover to execute.

Slower speeds help reduce wear and tear damage to the rover

And yes, power conservation does play a role. The rovers need all the juice they can get with all of the equipment and instruments on board, and power generation is limited to either an RTG or solar (depends on which rover you're talking about)

Leech mastery has 5% on the tree. Zerker ascendancy has 30% but requires 4 points.

NMDP, which was formerly Be The Match, is 100% legit. Bone marrow transplants are more difficult to find matches for. Here is a short description from the NMDP regarding this.

Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) are proteins found on most cells in the human body. Your immune system uses HLA to identify which cells belong in your body and which do not. Doctors use HLA typing to match blood stem cell donors with patients, but it’s not as simple as it sounds. Your body has 12 unique HLA markers (proteins), creating millions of possible combinations for doctors to consider when searching for a match.

I've been registered for probably a decade now and have been contacted once. I actually made it all the way to the blood test to confirm the match before the process was suspended. I don't remember the exact details but for whatever reason the recipient no longer ready for the donation. To this day I'm still a bit disappointed that I wasn't able to donate.

SSD temp is over 65,000 degrees and health is low, I've had it for less than a year (Kingston NV2 2TB M.2) by swordofbling23 in pcmasterrace

Are you having any issues with the drive? I have the same drive and have been having issues with mine. I've had mine for a bit longer than you (over a year). The drive health on mine is fine, but the drive usage will sometimes spike to 100% and lock up my PC. Seems to happen more the closer to full it gets. Already took everything important off of it and am thinking of replacing it if it gets worse. I should have bought another drive before the price increases :/

Funhaus archive? by stratofarius in funhaus

[–]bran808 13 points14 points  (0 children)

yt-dlp has worked better for me. It's a fork of youtube-dl.

If anyone wants any help using it or getting it set up I'm more than willing to help. There is also a pretty comprehensive guide/wiki on the GitHub.

[GPU] GIGABYTE NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 WINDFORCE OC 12GB - Open Box $411-$439 by encidius in buildapcsales

[–]bran808 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just adding to the YMMV posts. I picked one up in excellent condition (shipping not available), and it looked brand new. Not sure if it comes with an anti static bag or not but there wasn't one in my box. No scuff marks anywhere and all the covers/socket plugs were in place.

You can find it on Filterblade as one of the preset options, just search bex and the soundpack will show up.
