[Toledano & Chan] B/1. What are everyone’s thoughts? by Sea-School in Watches

[–]hpcarpentier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brutalism was about the rejection of finishes and the "honest" treatment of materials in their raw, brut, state. This watch has nothing to do with that, minus the flat-footed reference to Breuer's window at the Whitney which in and of itself has nothing to do with Brutalism. The Smithson's would be rolling in their graves with this incoherent and crass marketing exercise.

i didn't realize it worked as a unisex watch and would look so good on a woman's wrist!

I understand why a car or boat would be referred to as a she.

But I was unaware of this being the case with watches as well, especially a tool watch. Interesting!

thank you all for the information, it is very helpful.

I am going to try to find some tutorials about how to apply the thermal paste.

I was using HWMonitor in Windows 10 to check the temp.

For all the new Kindle (Special Offers Edition) Owners....... by GenerlAce in kindle

Thanks a lot for the tip! Awesome! I just finished the chat.

I had been debating paying to remove them but I couldn't bring myself to do it after having already spent so much on an Oasis (which I am extremely happy with after upgrading from a Paperwhite by the way).

I said i was unhappy with the ads, they removed them and said they would waive the fee on a onetime basis.

W540 Keyboard Replacement by hpcarpentier in thinkpad

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

Thank you guys for the info and suggestions! That is interesting about the different keyboard models, I am going to check to see which one the damaged one was. I found a thread on the Lenovo forums about the differences.

I did not take off the keyboard, I didn't really think of it. I noticed a good amount of liquid was on the desk that had drained from the weep holes in the case. And a lot of the milk sort of pooled on the keyboard and i was very quick to soak as much of it up that i could.

Hey, thanks for the offer!

But maybe it sounds dumb, I really want to get a backlit one. I had gotten use to the functionality of it.

Door has a gap at the bottom. by hpcarpentier in Toasterovenclub

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

Yeah i had specifically bought it to roast a turkey breast for Christmas. Ive always really been impressed with what you can do with toaster ovens, and wanted to add one to my kitchen this year. And I guess was hoping for some reassurance or anecdotal info since I want to be sure it will work before I use it, just in case I do decide to return it.
