What UI design trend do you hate the most?

Thing is you can have a single page app that still works with middle click, depending on the framework it's mostly automatic or some config for the router.

At least that's what I can say from my experience building a single page app, but considering I'm using new tabs extensively I did have some bias to make it work.

A cool guide to soldering

Reply in thread

Massive Ground planes on a multi layer board were my breaking point.

I tried to clean the through holes where a micro USB port was secured and only could get it cleared by drilling out the solder.... (Only had a soldering iron and wick available)

The downside of larger groups

I have one group I play in where there are 7-10 Players. It's pure chaos, though since we play very infrequently and a lot of the players don't take the game too seriously it somehow works out.

Still would not recommend unless you like roleplaying with your fellow players until you get to your turn of GM attention.

Linux suggestion

I can also recommend EndeavorOS, mostly seamless install even with a Nvidia Optimus GPU (well that one took a bit of research on what to install exactly, not that it's easier on other distros)

Linux way way slower than Windows?

Do you know what model AiO you have? Some models report pump speeds as higher since they have multiple magnets triggering the RPM sensor, so the 1600 might actually be 800 or even 400, which is way too low for the pump.

I would try setting the pump (and AiO fan) to 100% speed in the Bios for testing. Some pumps work well with a fan curve, some don't.

Edit with more technical details: Normally each revolution should generate 2 Pulses on the rpm Feedback wire. But Pumps don't always follow this spec so might over or underreport their actual rpm.

[RMA] What is this lump on my friend's CPU?

It could actually, the Heat spreader is usually bonded to the Chip with some form of Indium Solder, which usually has a melting point of up to 210°C (most compositions are around 120-140°C).

Solder likes to form a similar ball around traces and components, since the solder does not stick to the silk screen of the PCB.

And I remember that this is exactly what happened in the Gamer Nexus video, the Indium Solder was melting due to Overheating.
