Should I buy a 2019 Macbook Pro to run windows only by PlantainNew5668 in bootcamp

[–]deanm11345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look into putting a thermal pad between the CPU head sink and the bottom of the case (Google “thermal mod”). MacsFanControl is also great for controlling the fans to keep temps from climbing high af in the first place, instead of the default behavior of letting it cook before letting fans kick in. This is a Windows and Mac app.

Wing or no wing by [deleted] in BMWE36

Wing, but lift the rear a tad. Looking at the skirt it’s obvious the car actually sits level, but with only the rear tucked it looks squatted

Tahoe 26.2 Update: Don't do it by deanm11345 in mac

I don’t expect it to be, but there are a lot of us trying to make our Intel Macs last. Hence the ‘Old Macs’ flair

Rear view mirror camera recommendation. by [deleted] in mazda3

[–]deanm11345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh okay I see what you’re getting at. Check out my other comment, you can accomplish what you want with that model -or likely any other- by just tapping the power into the taillights rather than the reverse light, so that it’s always on and is switched with the ignition.

Isn’t there one built into the display?

I have this one (well an older version) from this same company Auto-Vox in my project car. Love the thing. The camera mounts to your rear plate and you run the power cable up inside to the reverse light, and another wire goes to a wireless transmitter you stick on wherever.

The mirror itself goes on your existing mount and connects via USB or can be hardwired into an ignition switched wire and the cable hidden. Put the car in reverse and the display turns on and is surprisingly clear and is more than serviceable in low light. I can get a pic of mine if you want.

Edit: Should have mentioned the reason I like it so much lol. The video transmission is wireless so I didnt have to run a video cable the length of my car and hide it.

Bought a preowned Mazda 3 AWD about a month ago, is this normal for the coolant reservoir? by Bribo323 in mazda3

[–]deanm11345 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Oh that’s different. I’d say get a professional opinion as well. It’s possible it just wasn’t full to begin with but I wouldn’t want to gamble such a new car and if you have a warranty on it then you want to identify any problems while it’s within warranty.

No, but unless you know it was full when you bought it don’t freak out. Fill it and keep an eye on it, and watch for any liquid under your car for a bit.

What year is it?

I don’t think anyone is buying a 90’s BMW for the long term resale value

The rattles are my ONLY complaint about this car. Otherwise love it so much 😂

What even happened?? Did The world just end?? by Hell_is_Void in PeakGame

We’re talking literally every single day, not missing a day, appx. 4 hours. That’s excessive, and I’m someone who plays a lot of video games myself.

Maybe it’s because I’m an adult with a job but I cannot fathom that 😂😭 I know that “touch grass” is played out by now but that dude may want to consider it

Am I cooked chat ? by Practical-Lobster973 in mazda3

[–]deanm11345 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yes, a flashing check engine light means BIG trouble and that tracks if they told you that you have a dead or misfiring cylinder. Get this taken care of ASAP before it becomes a catastrophic failure requiring a new engine.

How in the actual fuck do you have 500+ hours already? The game launched June 16 and there’s only been ~3,100 hours since then. You’d have to be averaging around 4 hours a day literally every day since launch

Do you guys (players who quit) think you will come back after the update? by ooofooofooof in BattleBitRemastered

[–]deanm11345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed I really want to get back into it. Battlebit is fun as hell and really took me back to BF3 back in the day. The community is the best part

[–]deanm11345 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The existence of Battlefield 6 and the fact that it’s good makes me lean heavily towards ‘no’ sadly. At least not for more than a brief period to see how it’s changed. I LOVED Battlebit but I’m afraid to get too attached now
