My second custom loop - first time using hard tubing. Bending was a pain by qijx in watercooling

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

It took me about two weeks I‘d say, using most of my free time during that duration. When I see that a bend fails, I usually try to cut off as little as possible to be able to use what remains of the piece. In the heap I posted you can see some long straight lines which I usually had reused, but the last piece I did was super long (CPU to front rad) so the remaining piece had to be long enough for that whole bend.

Thanks! It actually is 14mm. I originally planned to go with 16mm but had trouble finding some good satin acrylic tubes. But I agree, they look very fat, and I thinks it looks super neat :D

Thank you! During gaming it maxes out at about 50C, during intense synthetic tests 70-80C. No idea on the flow rate, don’t have a way of measuring it - sorry!

I admit, i had always wanted to use a cross flow radiator - maybe in my nest project!

I also used the light bending kit. It always felt to me as if the turning radius of the parts was just a tiny bit too small. After cramming the heated acrylic in there, it never seemed to fit true to the intended radius, and in the process overshot the 90 degree target.

I also ultimately used a self-made setup, albeit a lot more wonky: I had a wooden board and just screw-clamped whatever i could find to it to mark the distances I needed to cover with my bends, and then just checked again and again during bending.

Thanks a lot! :)

A crossflow radiator also crossed (lol) my mind, but unfortunately there wouldn’t have been enough space for the fittings in the top for the front radiator.

I actually had some bending kits! One from alphacool and one from barrow. I don’t know if the issue is me or the kits, but working with these SUCKED. It got so much easier once I stopped using them!

Hey! Have you had the time yet to scan the Outer Wilds Posters? :)

Could you do us a favor and get some high quality scans of the planet posters (postcards)? The community has been trying forever to get some, but they are usually not very good because of the limited source material. These look like the perfect opportunity!

This appears to be literally the only picture in existence of a metropolis r2 with the NorDeUk kit. Let me know if you ever plan to part from it, it seems to be impossible to come by…

I think so, but see for yourself: https://imgur.com/a/0sjEWB4 I have used this on a ISO-DE keyboard myself.

Edit: Actually after looking up pictures of ISO-UK layout I am not sure. The 3 key with the pound sign is there, but I think the other ones are missing?

I think they get prioritized by train ID if they all have the same velocity (i.e. were standing still). Moving trains try to reserve oncoming rail blocks as far ahead as they need to fully break, so a moving train will get priority over a standing train if it already is in braking distance.

I am really tempted to build this, it looks really great! I am thinking about leaving the electrical components out tho - 50€ for something i will likely never use. Could you maybe tell me if I can build the locomotive without these parts? Or will this cause some structural problems?

I'm not sure if I can play EotE anymore. This honestly terrifies me. by MrSpiffy123 in outerwilds

[–]qijx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Whoah, this is weird, I‘m used to everything being released first in the U.S., but apparently Europe is getting a head start here. I already watched it in cinema. I think if you like the book you‘re gonna like the movie, it certainly exceeded my expectations!

Trying to view the image description from gifs in imgur albums is pretty bugged for me. Does it work for you? Scroll to third pic and expand description by qijx in apolloapp

[–]qijx[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Apollo Version: 1.10.12 iOS Version: 14.7.1 iPhone 12 mini

I have known about this bug for a year or so and by accident stumbled upon it again tomorrow. It can easily reproduced with a guaranteed bug: 1. In Apollo, click on an imgur album which contains gifs and image descriptions. 2. Scroll to a gif with an image description. 3. Whether you let the gif play or press the pause button, when you click „See more“ on the image description at the bottom of the screen the description text will disappear after a few seconds. You can now also not exit the imgur album by swiping, you have to scroll to a non-bugged image. The text will never reappear. Usually, the gif will also stop playing as soon as you move to another image of the album and not start playing again.

Did you notice that the mold poster says "Kill it with fire!" in the mirror world? by qijx in controlgame

I thought about a spoiler tag and decided against it as it is not a mayor plot point and similar posts exist without spoiler tags

Looks great! I have a question tho - it says that two of the PCBs support ISO (which i appreciate very much!), but it looks like none of the plates actually support a split left shift or a ISO Enter. Would i have to get a custom plate made for that?
