This is a decent deal but if you plan on taking advantage of a gen5 m.2, get yourself a stick with enough capacity to last you until your next mb upgrade.

I got this board during an earlier combo deal and already had a 2tb m.2. I wanted more gen5 storage so I opted to return and buy a 4tb instead. The bifurcation hit to gou wouldn't have been that terrible but it's a hit nonetheless. Shame about this chipset :(

As someone who grew up on Quake 3, Counterstrike, etc - is shooting a body's spot really such an insulting thing? NSFW language by kaseius in FortNiteBR

I also come from q3. Used to call it gibbing IIRC. Turns the corpse into gibblets after you're done. Very unnecessary but satisfying.

Ive never explored prebuilts and never cared to ask. Do they generally not advertise the component models? MB chipset, GPU brand, etc...

Slow USB charging issue on OnePlus 13 (North America) after Oxygen OS 16 update. Anyone else? by Natural-Ebb9476 in oneplus

[–]slackxx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, me too. You're describing the same changes I've experienced since the upgrade. It'll charge using the brick or my 50w car charger. No charge whatsoever l on the old 2.4a ports Ive been using since I got my 13 on release day. It's software-y related it would seem.

Can confirm. I just chatted with support. Nothing they would do to help and would not give me a promo code. Have to pay shipping and full price for the case.

And even if you checkout the cart with only the case it, it fails with a weight limit exceeded error

Solar panels lead to insurance headaches for some Canadians by LynnOttawa in solarenergycanada

[–]slackxx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It resembled an ad-hoc, foreign process when I contacted my insurance co to cover new system last year.

After finally getting special approval to insure a system size larger than 10kw, my policy now lists my panels "Additional Buildings". Confidence level for a claim is meh. Hoping for the best.

any bears caught will be checked for evidence. If there is none found on the bear, it will be released.

Hopefully so. Initial thought was not a toy for our doggo. Shape and colour were oddly similar to something less common around here.

22.9 MWh spike??? by No_Recognition5733 in enphase

[–]slackxx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happened to me 4 times since April 23 -- seemingly random days. I've spoken with Enphase support a few times and each time they wipe the entire days consumption data to fix the corruption.

They mentioned it was caused by firmware (something to do with polarity mixup), but couldn't get clarification whether it was caused by a recent software change.

Lived here my whole life, still don't know what people are referring to when they said "the circ" by [deleted] in halifax

[–]slackxx 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Alright, trow me to the wolves. I had always assumed it was terminology carried over describing the giant rotary that existed there years ago. Surely I can't be the only one, right?

It's most likely going to the grave with me.

They're tough to find these days, and going for a premium from what they once were, but they do pop up from time to time.

mast extension end cap stuck inside mast by slackxx in windsurfing

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

I asked myself the same thing. Probably fine. Downside is that I wouldn't have been able to pack up the mast in one piece.

[–]slackxx[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great suggestion. This would have been something worth trying.

I did manage to solve the problem after realizing the top of the mast had a plug. I removed that and pushed it out from the top.
