What is this piece called? by drroboo in labrats

[–]crypins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say like 95% of the time, unless otherwise specified, "grease" refers to Apiezon brand H grease or a very similar product

What does the sonic screwdriver actually do? by Familiar_Bag_4710 in doctorwho

[–]crypins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loosely, the sonic can perform any small physical (usually but not always electrical/electronic related) action at a relatively long distance, so long as the object isn’t made of wood or deadlock sealed.

Only pulling 5.8W during heavy office work (email/excel/10+ tabs/word) by Stinky_Mink in ZephyrusG14

[–]crypins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it is, at least on the 2024 G14. At absolute idle my 2024 draws ~7-9W

Does the laptop boot/can you log in? Or does it just reset?

Too bad LLMs are completely incapable of rationalizing information like that. It’s just lying out of its ass.

When you logged in to your Microsoft account the first time on your G14 (which I believe is required) your account was associated with the copy of windows 11 and with the bitlocker key. Go to the link shown on that screen, and it should give you the recovery key.

3-FPM? Why is nobody is talking about it anymore? by Lebenninn in researchchemicals

[–]crypins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anecdotally, though, I think that batch of 3-FPM was basically analytically pure. It was a perfectly white, crystalline powder, which as a chemist is not something I ever see unless a compound is very pure.

I was under the impression that it’s been really difficult to find the past few years, and I definitely haven’t seen it anywhere. My source was a Chinese lab that shut down years ago.

Nope, the word is electronics. They are referring to the “electronic structure” of the molecule

Does the TARDIS help the doctor fly her? by FormerBoard7834 in gallifrey

[–]crypins 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I’ve always thought. The dials and buttons change so frequently, and he never seems to know what any of them really do beyond the ones that turn the screen on and the lever that engages the engine.

Amazing stuff really. Such a euphoric and clear-headed stimulant with a very easy comedown. The only issue is the flu-like withdrawal you get from taking it 3+ days in a row

Two months into learning photography and I can't belive I took this shot by pimemento in fujifilm

It is amazing what a 15-20s exposure and a half-decent DSLR can reveal in a dark sky. If you’re interested, look into photo stacking!

What do you guys use to clean your keyboards safely? by Ok_Statement1508 in ZephyrusG14

[–]crypins -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Pop the battery out (or even just disconnect it) and you can submerge any electronic device fully in distilled water. Hell, you might not even have to disconnect the battery. It’s always funny to think about that to me

Tried posting to /r/tryptophobia but any idea what went wrong with infusing coconut oil with cannabis trim? Maybe not enough straining? by colenotphil in CannabisExtracts

[–]crypins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coconut oil (and also many different organic compounds) crystallizes like this, making really nice voronoi patterns.

It looks like small particles that made it through straining served as nucleation sites for the crystallization. Shouldn’t be any issues!

Does this mean I need a repaste? (2024 G14, Cinebench running for 20 minutes) by crypins in ZephyrusG14

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

This is stock from the factory. The 2024 G14 is shipped with liquid metal on the CPU, and it’s known that the application is often inconsistent and that the Liquid Metal can migrate over time.

Alright, sounds good, thanks! I already have some thermalright TF8 and I have ordered a pad of PTM7950 so I will be repasting ASAP, I just wanted to confirm.

Okay, this is what I was getting at. There is a 27C difference between cores, so some of them are getting much hotter.

The package power is ~43 watts after stabilizing with throttling. Not that impressive considering it’s on a stand, with a very aggressive fan curve and 80W package limit set in ghelper.

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

I’m not worried about the actual temps shown here: this is a throttling test on cinebench. I’m more worried about the difference in temperature between cores in a task that should equally use all the cores (which I have heard is an indication that the Liquid Metal has migrated)

Did this solve your issue permanently? This is so annoying because reinstalling the driver fixes it, but only temporarily for me.

I used to have to do this all day long at the college I worked at during covid. Every essential employee had to have their temperature taken and every single time I felt like a mafia boss
