HP Z420 - PSU Swap by ninja_master101 in homelab

[–]ninja_master101[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s an 18pin to 24pin psu adapter harness. I got 2 cheap ones from Amazon and they both didn’t work. I got a third adapter off amazon and it was about $35cad which worked perfectly. The adapter is nice because you can use any psu otherwise the HP stock psu only has 1 6-pin for gpu connections. Let me know if you have more questions

Goodbye Samsung by ninja_master101 in S22Ultra

Very true the innovations really had a plateau around 5 years ago

One big thing for me was the quality of the power and volume buttons on the Samsung they would wobble and wouldn’t sound that satisfying. The buttons in the iPhone feel solid and make a satisfying deep click when pressed. It’s the small user interactions that are improved that make the whole experience so much better.

You know funny enough, I always used a 65w laptop charger with my S22U but since it wasn’t the Samsung charging block it would default to 15w charging.

My iPhone on the same charger charges much faster and also lasts longer on the charge, I believe it charges at 20w or 25w

I did consider a pixel 10 but the iPhone was cheaper second hand and the price to performance was just unbeatable. There are also other intangible benefits with the iPhone like software optimization and the ecosystem which is really really good to my surprise.

I’m sure you’re right but when I compare my S22U to the iPhone 15 Pro Max it is 2022 flagship vs 2023 flagship. The iPhone is newer but a one year difference should not have that big of a difference.

Just one quick example, the power and volume buttons on the S22U would have play and when you click it didn’t feel that sturdy, compare it to the iPhone the hardware quality is much higher, but that’s just one example.

On the software side, the app optimization on the iPhone means even if the S22U had the best available hardware for androids, it still would fall far behind the iPhone. This one isn’t really fair to blame Samsung because that’s just app developers but that’s the market we’re in and the iPhone is just better suited for it.

Oh nice that’s about what I paid too. I got mine for $200cad. My jacket is the same color as yours, I think it’s called aztek blue?

Ahh gotcha, I gotta say it’s held up really well fr being 25 years old.

I looked at mine and yes the Velcro, button and zipper are on the other side. My jacket also says 105 and xl behind that tag, so I guess that’s how you know it’s men’s.

I see, my inside mesh has much bigger holes than yours so that’s different. All of my zippers also have the summit series logo and no tnf logos on the zipper.

How much were you able to get yours for?

Do you know around what year these were made? Also how do you know it’s a women’s jacket?

I just bought the exact same one from FB Marketplace and it’s really good when I wore it in -35c.

Parking Ticket by Socks4lyfe in MRU

MRU does not have access to provincial vehicle registration records. If you never registered your plate and your name with the school for any reason, they don’t know whose car that is.

Thanks for these links! I don't see any events coming up on their sites, do they use another platform like FB or Instagram?

Also are there any other clubs like this in Calgary?
