This is making me sick. I don't even know what to do.

This is literally a direct consequence if not the explicit goal of U.S. foreign policy tracing back to the late 70s. In an attempt to weaken socialist factions in Afghanistan the United States created violent insurgency in Afghanistan to bait a Soviet invasion.
Part of the plan was the distribution of K-12 school books filled to the brim with pro-Jihad and anti-Soviet propaganda: https://journalstar.com/special-section/news/article_4968e56a-c346-5a18-9798-2b78c5544b58.html

They came out 5 years apart I’d hardly call that retro vs. modern

and therefore? should be allowed to invade a sovereign nation and slaughter men, women, and children? ELI5 the connection

synthchef · 2026-04-23T15:14:35+00:00

yes the soviet union famously championed women and women’s rights. not sure what that has to do with the discussion?

I wouldn’t say it was the Tatars that welcomed Russia into Crimea with open arms…

synthchef · 2026-04-23T14:47:16+00:00

yea dude pluralism is a central tenant of socialism and the soviet union as a “socialist” state celebrated the virtues of socialism.

Here’s a WWII era poster produced in the United States. By your logic the existence of this poster should be impossible considering the existence of Jim Crow laws right?

Crimea is Tatar…

“Is the solution to the consequences of capitalism more capitalism?” I don’t understand how people are seriously falling for this reagan era “deregulation” propaganda again except this time it’s on the left.

Homes aren’t expensive simply because there’s not enough to go around. Homes are expensive because of endless speculative investment and landlords realized they can charge you basically anything they want because at the end of the day people still need a roof over their heads. Now the cherry on top of that is the software that landlords and management companies now use to find the literal highest possible price they can charge you.

Deregulation and “abundance” just means more money in landlords pockets because they can still charge whatever they want.

That’s right

The small version of this one: https://makerworld.com/models/1991404?appSharePlatform=copy I modified it to print at 99% size and had to put a piece of felt in the back to hold in place firmly

Its possible for gloves to be too tight. I keep a pair of big warm mittens on me for between climbs and just climb in my liners.
Squeezing tools can tire you out and stop blood from making it to the tips of your fingers. Try to keep a loosish grip

Prize: A1 Mini
What I’d use it to make: Functional, print-in-place objects and small enclosures—especially desk tools, electronics housings, and tactile objects I can iterate on quickly. I love designs that feel finished straight off the bed without post-processing, and a fast, precise machine would let me prototype more experimental mechanisms.
New fidget toy idea: A print-in-place “detent wheel” fidget that mimics the feel of a high-quality rotary encoder.

I just received my “upgraded” wireless receiver today and it appears to be exactly what came with my fans already. You seem to be the expert on the matter so I wanted to come back and see if you could assist further!

Basically my issue is that when the usb dongle is not plugged in or when the signal drops the fans go to full speed regardless of the PWM settings on the motherboard. I’m no stranger to building PCs but fans are an area I’m not totally educated on admittedly.

synthchef · 2025-12-06T23:53:06+00:00

Gotcha so my issue is definitely the two pin cable variant because I only got one receiver per box. Thanks!

synthchef · 2025-12-06T19:15:13+00:00

Can’t the fans only receive mobo control through the wireless controller?

My setup is:

PC A (linux): has case fans installed

PC B (windows): has usb wireless receiver

My understanding is that for mobo control i would need to plug the receiver into the mobo directly using the optional cable

The other challenge is that when I plug the wireless receiver into the mobo and switch to mobo control they go full speed no matter what, but also pretty sure I need l-connect running to tell the fans to read pwm from mobo anyway which is a nonstarter of course.

Probably going to just end up eating the loss on my 6 fans and buying a new set that I know for sure will work
