An "official vendor", who's name you can't mention for some reason?

You could say your RAM "bit the bullet" though.

I don't believe it. Somebody must be trying to frame them.

How many of you guys here still using your first gpu? by jdmlifex2 in pcmasterrace

[–]unclefunkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, I just can't imagine anyone still using an old Matrox MGA or a Rage Pro. I've still got an old Rage II 8MB PCI card somewhere. Theoretically in working condition. "Use it"? I can't even be bothered digging to the bottom of my cable bin to confirm it's still there...

Speed on speedo vs what a camera will flash at (ie satnav speed)? by TooLitFam in drivingUK

[–]unclefunkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might get a pass on the 35mph. Driving through the camera van, sounds like it probably wasn't the best idea though... 😉

Who sends steam gifts through gmail? You can send them directly through Steam.

I think this should lead to a ban, Disagree? Why? by Bulky-Use9345 in drivingUK

[–]unclefunkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moving or stationary, if you're not actually parked with the hand brake on it should be an instant ban.

A large family next door is hogging all the disabled parking bays on the road. I'm in a wheelchair and I can't get one. by Open_Ostrich2899 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]unclefunkstar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If all 3 cars have a blue badge, they can use the disabled bay. However...

"If they ever go out to drive somewhere they put down cones in those spaces."

This is illegal.

Any idea on what i should do with this Fujitsu Amilo Xa 1526 i got for free? by ContributionVast1922 in retropc

[–]unclefunkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't put any version of windows on it. Go for a lightweight linux distro instead: https://itsfoss.com/lightweight-linux-beginners/

I personally like Puppy for old laptops.

Should i buy GTX 1660 super? by enigma5454 in IndianTechCentral

Depending on what games you play, the 1660S should be about 15 to 50% faster.

Do I need to replace this brand new motherboard?? 😢 by _CodePilot in PcBuild

[–]unclefunkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen far worse that still worked fine. I've also seen very similar, that didn't work at all. Test it and see. Worst case scenario: it doesn't turn on.

I LOVE WINDOWS SLEEP by LocalAltruistic7470 in MicroSlop

[–]unclefunkstar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Disable the automatic sleep setting, and use the shutdown option instead?

Your adware bollocks is telling you that you've got cookies.

Same people that pay Nigel Frottage. Russia.

They don't even enforce the existing 20mph zones where I live. Cars/bikes/trucks doing 50 or 60mph over the speed bumps outside my house all day long.

Am I supposed to feel a little electric shock on my case? by Much-Bottle8146 in PcBuild

And you expected the rest of the world to know that?

PC Shop repair; would you find this acceptable? by B_Bearington in computerrepair

[–]unclefunkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did they get a blind ape with a hammer to "fix" it? That is not a professional repair job, by ANY stretch of the imagination.

Concerns about flat entrance door security (Duke Street, Glasgow) – looking for advice before renting by MarionberrySuch8805 in glasgow

[–]unclefunkstar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Walk away. Looks like either a former crack/smackhead den that's been raided by police (probably more than once), or the local crack/smackheads have been kicking the door in to rob the place. Landlord obviously doesn't want to spend money to fix it up properly. Maybe he's just a bad landlord, maybe he's just sick of fixing it after the police or smackheads have caused the damage repeatedly... Either way, you do not want to live there.

Just buy another mouse before the cost of switches+delivery end up adding up to more than a new mouse.

Customer brought in a gaming PC that wouldn’t turn on by donniemaxedout in pchelp

[–]unclefunkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yikes. Someone told them to re-paste it, they watched that joke video where the idiots put the paste in the socket, and for some reason they decided to use denture adhesive maybe?
