    Can the forums be "widened"?

    Hey, Quick question. I have seen other Xenforo implementations where the forum will scale to the full width of the browser window. On TheFPSReview Forums it scales up to a certain width and then stops. Here is an extreme example if I go full screen at 4k (which I never do, just for...

    FDA Bans Juul E-Cigarettes from U.S. Shelves

    Young people often do make bad decisions. I did when I was young too. I even smoked actual cigarettes for a while (but never indoors, even when it was very cold out. I don't think it ever hit -40, but -20 was definitely a thing that happened) What concerns me is that there are grown ***...

    FDA Bans Juul E-Cigarettes from U.S. Shelves

    When did I say anything about regulation or governing? We just need to be real about the facts, and then people can do with that as they want, as long as they are not harming others. The issue is that a lot of people (especially young people) are making dumb decisions because they think it is...

    FDA Bans Juul E-Cigarettes from U.S. Shelves

    Your home, your decision. At least if you own it and don't have room/house mates. But I am not going to lie, I kind of find that a little gross. If someone did that in my house I'd be tempted to kick them out. Yeah, I can smell even the unscented varieties, and they can leave quite the...

    FDA Bans Juul E-Cigarettes from U.S. Shelves

    I'd be in HR lodging a complaint within 5 minutes of seeing that the first time, and if they didn't address it, I'd in no uncertain terms let them know about my disappointment and find another job. I don't put up with **** like that from anyone.

    FDA Bans Juul E-Cigarettes from U.S. Shelves

    I have no issues with those who vape per se, but I still insist they take that **** outside. The idea that it is OK to do it indoors (especially when you live with other people, or in a building with other apartments) is the part that really ruffles my feathers. I don't care if it is -40...

    Forum Change?

    I - too - remember seeing XenForo options regarding whether or not to display the likes of avatars and signatures, but I can't seem to find them here. Personally I don't mind them (they just kind of jumped out at me when they changed) but I can see how some might find them annoying, and having...

    The Z Build(s) 3.0 - Go Big and/or Go Home

    Ahh. I was thinking about AT Power supplies or something. Couldn't quite figure out what you were on about. Thanks for clarifying. You know it is funny. I read Anandtechs articles all the time over the years. Or at least up until 2014 when Anand himself left for Apple and their reviews...

    Forum Change?

    Cool. The more the merrier. It seems silly to prefer a forum based on minor forum layout differences rather than based on the expertise and content, but if it attracts more people here that can only be a positive thing. I'm all for a bigger FPS Review community!

    Forum Change?

    Just because I am curious... I just noticed that something changed with the forum software. The layout changed a bit, and my avatar went missing. Did I miss some sort of announcement?

    What did you call me? 😅 (Seriously though. I don't know what that means.)

    The Z Build(s) 3.0 - Go Big and/or Go Home

    And then it was time to mount the fan brackets and covers. The whole 3x3 bracket is designed with two prongs on the bottom (which are just screws with a nylon washer underneath), that stick into matching holes on the radiator, and then it is just supposed to snap in place at the top...

    The Z Build(s) 3.0 - Go Big and/or Go Home

    While on the topic of things that are uncharacteristic for me, lets talk about RGB LED lighting. You may all recall that the MORA radiators have these white plastic light diffusers: I wasn't originally going to do anything with these, but it bothered me that the white plastic diffusers are...

    The Z Build(s) 3.0 - Go Big and/or Go Home

    So, this is where things get a little silly. I looked into options to do away with the Noctua "Napoleon Dynamite" "Tan on Taupe" look. My first thought was to use automotive vinyl dye, as I have used that on plastics in the past with good results, but some searches revealed less than...
