QuirkyRobot got a reaction from beyondthesky in Materials Sourcing Question for In Desk PC
Home Depot may have everything:

or online:

I personally would avoid gloss only because I have had problems with scratching. But this is only from my 1 experience with Autonomous's standing desk.

QuirkyRobot reacted to Crunchy Dragon in How to get text under your comments in this site?
Click on the dropdown menu with your name on in the upper right corner, click on Account Settings. From there, go to Signature and enter in whatever you want as long as fits the Community Standards.
Don't worry about not knowing how that works, I went just over a year before I finally found out how to do it(I also didn't ask how because I'm like that lol).

QuirkyRobot reacted to Crunchy Dragon in Vive or Rift
The Rift would suit your use case better, the Vive was designed to be used in a full room setting more than the Rift was.

QuirkyRobot got a reaction from CubisticWings4 in Mesh Wifi for New House
If you want the full performance of you network, well position wired access points in each room will serve you better. WiFi will give you slower speeds. Mesh can serve the needs for everything (else like smart switches). I personally use Google WiFi but most brand mesh systems do pretty well. Ubiquiti seems to do well for Linus...
Depending on the system you can adjust or it will auto adjust the WiFi channels for the best reception. (bands within the 2.4 and 5 ghz)

QuirkyRobot got a reaction from TVwazhere in Wood Cleaner + NZXT S340
Hard to say without knowing what the cleaner is but is it possible that it isn't a stain but the paint/coating of your case being stripped off where she wiped?

Price is 80$ a month and includes voice, we are going to cancel windstream and since that’s bundled with our dish tv we may have to reorder but that’s no problem

QuirkyRobot got a reaction from Kalm_Traveler in Ideas on spare rig with existing parts?
Spare gaming PC is fine and all but you can also use it as a NAS/Server type of thing. Either to host games like minecraft or running a media server like Plex. I am sure other people will have other ideas.

QuirkyRobot got a reaction from NoobCase in Wood Cleaner + NZXT S340
I usually use rubbing alcohol to clean off most things. Because it evaporates it won't harm your computer. I can't tell if the cleaner is leaving residue or it stripped off a layer of paint. But if it is just residue the alcohol could help.

QuirkyRobot reacted to Sauron in Do ram speeds matter (pls explain :P)
Please make an effort to type properly, it's hard to read
The thing is that for school work ram speed really doesn't matter. Ram capacity matters - if you run out of ram the computer will get much slower. I would consider 8GB to be a decent amount for office and web browsing, more if you do intensive multi tasking (although I doubt that's the case at school).

QuirkyRobot reacted to BuckGup in Do ram speeds matter (pls explain :P)
It would be much more beneficial to upgrade the CPU in a school computer then the memory speeds

QuirkyRobot got a reaction from GoodBytes in Module phones
There are companies that sell semi modular phones like Motorola, LG but if you are talking about full modular like Google's Project Ara then the only one I can think of is Fairphone: https://www.fairphone.com/en/
The reason modular phones aren't popular:
cost of overall phone higher, modular parts weren't that cheap lack of support from various part makers which were due to lack of consumer audience buying parts... lack of waterproofing thicker overall phone in comparison to slimmer flagship phones currently favored newer tech may no longer work with original frame/architecture, defeating modularity... -

You can move your current boot hard drive to your new computer and as long as it is configured as a boot drive in your new build, you won't have to reinstall anything. (This is considered a dirty way of moving because there may be broken settings/drivers due to the different parts or other compatibility issues but you can fix by uninstall old drivers and installing new drivers)

QuirkyRobot reacted to Cosmic Railgun in Case vibrating
See if you can tighten the screws, if that doesn't work then try taking out the problem fan and putting a different fan in that place (don't put the problem fan back in) if that works then just order a new fan, if not then there could be a structural issue with the case, in which *case*.....warranty?

For vinyl stickers, you can source someone local to do it for you like from a sign/print shop.

QuirkyRobot reacted to Mira Yurizaki in Using a pc in an ungrounded plug
If the chassis itself has electricity running through it, it's not fine. You should find out what's causing it.

QuirkyRobot reacted to Hiitchy in ethernet vs wireless speed
Ethernet is generally always faster than wireless as wireless has more obstacles suck as walls, other devices on the same network or on the same area using the same frequencies and whatnot.
