Nissan is the Chrysler of Japan.

One features a sorta gore from the stylized killing of monsters and aliens, while the other feature killing of humans + killing and dismemberment of monsters that were once humans. There is a difference, not that I agree with banning and censoring of games, that is oddly, so prevalent in the West. Don't get me wrong, I love DSR, having played DS+DS2+DS3, but I believe that IF a country imposes a ban on a film, game, or even book, it's entirely up to that country's government to decide.... For example, my country used to have a ban on anything that's even mildly sexual, or that has gore (even women dressed in mildly transparent dresses are censored, yes, it was THAT bad).....now, we have a rating system that allows for and tolerates such scenes. Stellar Blade and DSR has made it to my country, I played the heck outta DSR, I will be getting my copy of Stellar Blade on Friday.

Imagine taking several days to make a song. That's totally unprecedented, that's soooo much effort, and definitely not half assing and slapping something together.

As for the HBA, I'd recommend an LSI Megaraid XXXX-16i which will only get you 16 of the 20 bays covered, but you can then grab a 4i/8i to handle the rest, though if you're shucking and jiving this hard for parts, you might just stick to 16 drives to start with. LSI HBA model numbers are four digits then a dash then the number of drives it handles, then an I or an E to indicate if the connectors are inside or outside the case respectively

I actually tend to use the auto-generated lyrics, though I know others who get another AI (like GPT) to write them lyrics and insert those in (haha). Though it generates the song in 30 second chunks forwards or backwards (so you would have to cut up the lyrics properly for the chunks). But my process is trying to nail the genre and feel with tags, and then start spinning the music slots. Sometimes changing the theme or trying to tweak tags.... but this can take a while, some over 100 or 200 tries. Like you will notice in some of my songs that I try to shove a lot of violin in there. Like this one I intentionally started stressing the strings more half way through (with a violin solo too, since you can extend with no lyrics if you want....though it doesn't always work). Once you find your first clip that sounds good, then comes the challenge of expanding it into a full song. This could go fast (a few hours), or be an absolute slog as you try to go through hundreds and hundreds of generations to take another step forward. The thing is you can change your prompts in each segment!! So I was able to change the subject, or make it more metal as the song advances). That's why in the end a good pace for me is 6 hours per song. Doing music this way is like a musical slot machine. You keep pulling the lever until you end up with 3 cherries haha. And of course if there are minor errors I can fix that with some rudimentary editing (but since everything is baked together, it has its limits.... or I just don't know music editing well enough to take full advantage of what is possible).

All of these coolers should be fine orientation wise, the good thing about thermal right is they have dimensional drawings for all their coolers on their respective pages so you should be able to check for yourself if they will fit

Antec Eleven Hundred, had a mount for a motherboard tray fan for rear side cooling. Exact same purpose, motherboard vrm cooling from the back side. wouldve been 2012

There's no such thing as "99% sure I mounted it correctly" with temps like this. Make sure that the pump and fan speed are set too low at the temps you're seeing.

This depends on where you live.

PC Gremlins ( it can sometimes just be the mild oxidation/dust or 100 other reasons, no obvious answer)

I'm pretty sure my girlfriend's 1.4t Cruze could smoke a 4 cylinder Altima, they are supposed be a V6 car no matter how awful a VQ sounds once the cat has been cut off to pay rent with that big Altima energy I say this in the S10 groups on Facebook almost everyday... Every engine in the S10 is perfectly adequate. Iron duke, 2.8 and 4.3, they are at the end of the day light duty trucks and if you use them as such are perfectly adequate trucks. Mine at this point is literally just a 2wd Syclone, I don't get to be fast off the line, making like about 300hp at the crank and no traction control like the G8 had if it doesn't spin into 3rd gear the wheel hop will knock your teeth out...since split mono leaf springs and caltracs bars haven't really been a priority, though the "big tires" and torsen diff has helped a lot with traction..

Forgive me if I am dumb, but I did not know this. Apparently, it's perfectly legal to modify a HAC-001/V1 Nintendo Switch console with the RCM payload injector software and the RCM Jig, but it is illegal if I were to hypothetically buy a modchip for my 2019 patched Switch? I'm sorry, I don't get the logic here. Any thoughts, anyone?

it normally means no error code was left, meaning thats the only error code available. its a pain in the ass when you see that message.

Could you explain the process a little? I am curious what is really needed - prompts? lyrics? something else?

So far into the ownership experience, I completely agree. When I built this AM5 rig the week it launched I made a decision that I just wanted to own high end overkill motherboard for once just for the hell of it. Money wasn't a concern and I certainly could have spent even more but even at $500 for a board was absurd. Its neat to think about, but I'm not making use of it whatsoever. Plus, again, I still feel like B650 boards POST faster. Someone remind me, was B650 available during launch week for Zen4? I can't remember.

Hi, so Gamemax is making PC cases with included big fan behind the CPU backplate which will spin when the VRM reached a certain temp. They call it COC (Cooling and OverClocking). According to a YouTube reviewer, this design is copyrighted by Gamemax. However, I vaguely remember a similar design on a PC case from mid 2000s. Can you help me confirm what case was it and if that design exist before Gamemax? attached are images of GameMax Diamond.

a Nvidia GPU pick for render work would be a good play as CUDA makes life so much easier, a 4070/super would be comparable in price. The SSD is 1tb which is likely fine but could get small if you install lots of games/have large projects on there so maybe go for a bigger/secondary drive. also if price is a concern drop the case quality some and get a cheaper one, that is very expensive for what it is.

Wait, is it missing the backplanes? Or just the HBA that the backplanes plug into? EDIT: Okay, it's missing the backplanes. That's BONKERS. You're kinda hooped. Looks like they weren't that great to begin with. Replacement backplanes are HARD to come by. Unless you're in a MASS market server you're unlikely to find just the backplanes for any reasonable price. I'd probably recommend just sacrificing airflow and go with SAS to SATA expansion cables. It makes the sleds a LOT less hot swapable, but it allows you to actually use the case

After seeing the LMG podcast about AI music, and all the news on Udio and Suno, I decided I would give it a shot becoming one of the first AI bands / musicians. BUT! Not just half ass it! No no, I'm going all in and trying to produce bangers (which takes a surprising amount of time to make a good full song in these tools, 6+ hours for some, but the latest one I'm working on is taking days). Heres one of my new ones, but I've been experimenting with a range of styles Anyhow, just figured some would find it interesting

That's a really short time limit for it to stay open, compared to UK's deadline at 16th october.

I personally run all MSI boards but that's just because I've never had an error with one and I know the BIOS layout pretty well. But I will point to what Linus says about top tier boards: They are never worth it. Their low production volume means you pay an even larger premium *and* they are last in line for firmware bug fixes.

I left my PC on overnight. The following morning it wouldn't awaken from sleep. I turned it off then on again. No post. Double checked connections; no post. Disconnected everything but monitor; no post. Removed 1 ram stick; post. Put ram stick back in the same slot; post. I9-13900k Gigabyte z790 2x32gb ddr5 6600 7900 xtx Seasonic prime 1300W
