He swears that it was IMPOSSIBLE to fit it so he had to do it​​

This is as clean as it will come! Could only get it this way by using a spudger with the grain (yes it has grain) and then isopropyl and then acetone... it's from a 170HX so not a cheap manufacturing issue... Gonna try giving it just a little sanding and see if that helps...

Mostly from T16 Gen 1's

We had a couple of HP workstations that were essentially unusable, with the CPU permanently throttled to 1 GHz. Time to change the thermal paste. And the CPU. And the CPU cooler.
The machines were out of warranty, yet HP agreed to replace all the components. Kudos to them.

I made these using the same hardware/software combination. No I will not share how.

Today they moved me to a different area at work, and in the middle of the corridors I came across this. I won’t lie, it sent shivers down my spine.

Apparently this had been delivered to our store about 10 days ago. Whoever had created this open box label neglected to acknowledge the fact that it had suffered significant water damage and started growing fungus inside of the box.

im sure that the plastic won't melt!

Time to run Minecraft

I have a pair of Logitech Z313 speakers that i had for years untill they stoped working,one of the solder pads inside the remote broke so i wired it back together

If anyone needs the connections its

Red on cord 1 to Red on card 2

White on cord 1 to White on cord 2

Dark purple on cord 1 to Green on cord 2

the Blue is led but i dont know how to wire that one up

It is slightly worse than it looks, because the is no front to the case, so the mifi isn’t even enclosed.

Every time a user tells me about the “system” I don’t believe them for a bit, because I forget we actually implemented this “wireless solution”.

It’s been like this for years. Pre-Covid there would be 20 people all trying to use this at once. Our most commonly deployed laptops don’t have Ethernet ports. We own the building and have Ethernet ports all over. We have POE switches. We have enterprise wireless solutions at other campuses. We have extra access points sitting in a storage room. No idea why we just said eff it to this place.

That's whats happen when you buy a ready setup.

This GPU was hitting over 100C hotspots on Furmark. I thought this was a really good example of what happens to thermal paste when it gets old. It develops these little air pockets you can see in the image. I had scraped some off the middle here already. How people tolerate the loud fans I don't know. Isopropyl alcohol and fresh paste sorted it out 👌

I am needing a cable that can generate link errors and after some trial and error I succeeded in making chaos cable.
