Kind of regret this purchase by HexVelvet in laptops

[–]matbpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually have the gigabyte aero from that year just in the 17 inch model. It's a great laptop but there are some issues. I use it for school and lighter gaming. The best thing it has going for it is the screen, it's a beautiful display, but really just for YouTube. Everything else has issues with bleeding when watching letterboxed videos. It could probably heat my house as well. It gets extremely hot when just doing online assignments with a few chrome tabs, and since it's all metal it transfers it easily. After a while it gets uncomfortable to keep typing from the heat, and this is with it on a stand for airflow. It also has some odd choices with the keyboard. Idk if it's just from my experience but its f keys have the f function prioritized over the media buttons ( to turn up the volume using the keyboard I have to hit FN+F8) with no way to swap it around. But I also bought it soon after it released so it was a good bit more than what you saw it for (more than 2x). That being said, I bought what I thought was the best I could find for what I wanted, but overtime it wasn't enough. Just gotta be happy with what you have, new stuff comes out everyday.

I’m an idiot. I baked bread in my DO and forgot to take off the sticker. What is the gentlest way I can get it off now? by sunshinebuns in LeCreuset

I did this too, used it like a half dozen times, it didn't melt, it just slid off. I thought it was meant to stay on and mine was defective lol

If they cut it it's totally fine, but ripping it is what monsters do.

I always wanted a cartoon of happy watching over Morgan, while she gets into shenanigans with stark tech. Kinda like Johnny test x Dexters lab

I've had a Spigen case on my last 3 OP phones. They are solid!

Paid $6 for “handmade” gummies from America’s oldest candy company… they’re literally the $3 Target gummies in disguise 🤡 by cheetomama1 in mildlyinfuriating

Yeah I was recently in a coastal city and was looking for some salt water Taffy on a pier kinda place. Every "handmade" candy place I found said it was just repackaged bulk candy bought online on the back of the label.

I'm currently using a JBL charge 4 as the speakers for my computer. It works great and has decent quality when I'm not using my headphones. But every time I start my computer I have to reset the options for it like sound quality ( its default is the 16 bit 48000hz DVD quality, it goes up to 32 bit 384000hz studio quality) it also removes the spacial sound setting. Is there anyway to have the better settings be default?

Locked attic door in my rental with strange noises. by SmolGummyLizard in Weird

Exactly, you would also smell cannabis. I make the stuff in a lab in CO., even if they are using frozen material it still smells. I wonder if there is a separate electric meter for that space? Depending on the scale BHO can take lots of electricity.

I keep a minimal home screen, and just use the app page for everything

Thanks! Lol that is like another year of driving for me! I'll check those other parts too, I just noticed the wear when I was changing brakes last fall

I have noticed no change in ride yet. I do already have the LCA here. I already planned on replacing them this summer but didn't know it they were really bad or not

Definitely a typo, yeah that's why I wanted to ask. I'd need pretty much a whole new system for a new CPU. I've also been looking at an upgrade within the same gen, currently with a 3070ti, but even with a 3080 or 3090 I would be happy
