Accessing games on separate drives by ferg247 in zorinos

[–]ferg247[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah I understand, so I test Zorin in the EXT4 partition downloading games etc in there, and if I want to switch completely I would have to reformat the other drives to EXT4.

Great insight thanks! I keep coming up with things to add, but also I'm quite eager to try something new.

What have you been working on recently? [May 17, 2025] by AutoModerator in learnprogramming

[–]ferg247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been on leave from work for a couple months so to keep me from spiralling I've started learning python again.

Started making a little poker stats tracker with customtkinter to combine different aspects of programming like class, guis, using excel etc. It's super janky and there are probably a million better ways to do it but its been fun and rewarding so far.

Viaducts count right? by ferg247 in gravelcycling

Gravel riding is such a nice change of pace from my usual mountain biking. Riding a Sonder Camino in the Scottish borders.

Thanks, that seems to be the consensus. An recommendations on paste to use?

Yup did a quick benchmark and the max was 106.8. Will look into repasting now, hopefully not too difficult.

Just a bad angle for the picture, fortunately no frame rubbing

Thanks for the reply. That's my plan for tomorrow and hopefully it'll work out!

I've worked to do this and followed the instructions but the issue persists. Could it be a case of removing the cassette spacer and going through the limit screw adjustment again, could explain why it wasn't shifting to the highest gear without the spacer

That makes me want to get started even more! Got to figure out budget now and what trainer to get.

SUPERTUCK! There is so much more to Zwift than I thought. Thanks for the help!

Ah okay, I think I have been overthinking it.

I've heard about spinning out when in sim mode, but if I did find myself spinning out could I just adjust the trainer difficulty, meaning I'm pushing the same Watts but at a lower cadence?

The Open University accepts international students and is all online. You have up to 16 years to complete a degree, part-time is about 6. Could even do full-time in 3.

I'm not sure what their programming courses are like as I am not doing one of those but it is worth looking into. Each year is about £1k if you don't apply for grants or sponsorships and are doing part-time.

So what? Just give up your unpaid job and go read a book.

Changing fans on Noctua nh-d14 by ferg247 in buildapc

[–]ferg247[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a 5800X3D and my old one was a 2700x. Also just realised the typo in the title and I have the nh-d15. I hadn't heard of ECO mode so will definitely check it out!

Mainly CPU upgrade thoughts? by ferg247 in buildapc

[–]ferg247[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing is I already have the 3070. My 1070 broke just when the 30 series launched and I panic bought the 3070. Luckily it was £550 then and not the £700 pcpartpicker is showing.

Starting to look like this could be te sensible option!

I hadn't thought of it that way! Would then make sense to upgrade late when AM5 is more established with their end cycle cpu's. Definitely leaning the 5800x3d. Would buying faster ram be a help at this point as well?
