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

    I thought this was going to be the weekend I fill and leak test the radiator portion of the loop. The Bad News: I overlooked some fittings I needed. The good news: MicroCenter has them. The Bad News: MicroCenter closes at 6pm on Sundays The Worse news: I didn't realize this until I got...

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

    Yeah, I knew already before starting this project that I really don't have the time for this **** anymore, and actually executing on the project has been proof of that. That was kind of the motivation though. I want to do it once. Build an overkill water cooling loop that I will never need...

    Oh, and by the way,something tells me there will be a 4090 and matching water block in the FS/FT subforum in the not too distant future 😁

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

    So, my solution for the "weekends are not long enough and I don't want to be stuck without a work machine on Monday" problem is relatively simple in retrospect. I just need another CPU cooler. Something I can use in my workstation temporarily, allowing me to break down the water loop and take...

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

    I just realized I forgot to update work on the electrical control box. First I bought a Delta dual volt (12v/5v) power supply from Mouser. I bought a large-is (10"x10"x4") electrical junction box to use as a control box for the fans and pumps. The intent was for this box to house the power...

    Can the forums be "widened"?

    That's a shame, but I really appreciate you trying. I see so many of these Xenforo forum implementations that operate that way, I just assumed it was a simple option. My apologies for requesting something a little bigger than expected 😅

    Can the forums be "widened"?

    The whole point is that I want to run it smaller :p

    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...
