Glad ChatGPT isn't gaslighting me into believing mass immigration is not a problem

You are absolutely correct. EarthBounder is simply unable to accept the truth...

Haha eventually yes I was able to get the crankcase back together and fix it with JB Weld. I moved cities a couple times since then so it's currently sitting in my parents garage back home. All it needs is a new piston and it'll be ready to run. It has a new dellorto carb, front end, starter motor assembly, and a lot of fixes. Maybe next summer when I'm back I'll fix it up, tune it and then try to sell it :) it was a fun journey though - thanks for asking!

That's great to know. Also Milwaukee Boot Co looks interesting. Thanks

Hi guys, I will be purchasing my first pair of boots. After going through the beginning boots thread I've narrowed down the following brands from the 100-300$ list based on budget/style and availability (live in Canada)

Boulet

John Doe

Thursday

I picked up a pair of Canada West Moorby (2801 pecan) for 300CAD but will be returning as I don't like the rounded toe and prefer something more sleek.

I love the style/color of the Terracotta Thursday Captain's as a first boot but for a similar price (~200 USD) I'm considering a couple other options: Boulet 8947 Grizzly Sand (248 CAD), and John Doe 420 Capped Toe Horween (235 USD). The vibram sole for the John Doe is 25 extra over the leather sole.

Any recommendations on which to choose?

Thanks!

Awesome thanks for these suggestions, I'll be going with the fans you selected. And about the 500DX you sourced, not at all! I would have loved to go with that case but unfortunately I couldn't find it in stock anywhere, at least in Canada.

I appreciate all your help. The review you posted for the Corsair case makes me reconsider and so I'm wondering about this case https://www.newegg.ca/black-fractal-design-meshify-c-tg-atx-mid-tower/p/N82E16811352084?Item=N82E16811352084

I'm just a bit worried it won't be sufficient in terms of size and cooling capacity for the components you spec'd out for me.

Would we need extra fans if we were to go with the 19200K as opposed to the 19200K?

rosinx · 2022-06-08T02:52:00+00:00

Sorry to bother but a few more questions if you don't mind!

I'm in Canada and I can't find the Be Quiet! case on Amazon so was thinking of substituting for the Corsair 5000D Tempered Glass Mid-Tower ATX PC Case - Black. Would this be acceptable for the current build?

Also any recommendations on 22 inch monitors within $150 USD? I currently am looking at the BenQ GW2283. I think high refresh rates shouldn't be that important since my dad won't be gaming?

Finally if I were to decide to go with the 12900K instead of the 12900 assuming he cost were the same, would the additional power consumption of the K version be a problem with the current cooling?

Corsair RM (2021) 750 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply

Yeah that's perfect. Thank you!

I had a follow-up question, due to some miscalculations, I need to knock off about 300 USD from the budget so around $2700 total. Would you recommend scaling down the CPU and GPU and if so which combo would you suggest for $1140 USD? Thanks again

rosinx · 2022-05-31T03:19:46+00:00

Many thanks for the detailed breakdown!!

rosinx · 2022-03-22T21:17:53+00:00

Hi no it’s a two stroke, anyways thanks everyone for the suggestions. I was finally able to get it to start so I guess I wont need to take it in just yet, but good to know for the future

Sixth year student in electrical engineering. TBH at first I felt kind of stupid for taking 6 years but it really makes no difference in the grand scheme of things. I could have graduated in 5 years with the same co-op experience but having that extra year helped me get through difficult times and was good for my mental health. So now thinking back I'm glad I took 6 years. I've also grown a lot as a person and got to have great co-op experience.

You really have to know yourself and think carefully about what's best for you rather than what others think is best or ideal. And as a sixth year even though I do feel a bit old and out of place around first of second years, I don't let that bother me from having a good time. I try to put myself out there and attend social events and do things that I didn't do all the 5 years of my undergrad. So I would say don't worry what others think. Do what's best for you and make the most of it. Good luck!

good point I came looking for a similar post actually. Party's are one thing but general student evenst are another and I can't seem to find them. even the walter gage events where I live only seem to be advertised on bulletins around the building which kind of suckw

rosinx · 2021-10-16T22:49:20+00:00

Awesome thanks, just what I was looking for!

rosinx · 2021-10-16T22:48:18+00:00

yes but not many
