Maybe you could try getting a discount by the seller telling them that they consistently mislabel the battery capacity as being 5 mAh, which is 1000 times less than the correct value of 5 Ah 😂

Posted the rather beat up Tag Heuer a short while back, I'd just gotten it back from my regular trusted watch dealer after a polish job  and battery change, so the watch is good to go for 2-3 years at least. They did a bang up job though.....

Ended up buying an 8TB EasyStore for $169? and got one of these lads out of it feat. 11PM lighting. Thing is stupid fast, runs cool (even though everyone swears the air drives run way hotter than helium), and it makes the most satisfying seeking sounds ever.

I assume you found the post about the heat.  

There is also a post I made a while ago complaining about how it seemed slow as images took time to load even compared to my old GTX 780.  

Now those are gone also and images are instantaneous like they should.  

I have to give credit to Memory Express though.  I had an IPA warranty and it was no hassle at all changing to another GPU.

Yeah I found the post about the heat and other problems. I'll be stuck with ASUS CS if my 6900XT were to ever fail as I chose not to get the replacement warranty plan at Micro Center.

CableMod Cables for my Gaming PC:

F36F6F4A-F0A0-4DBF-BC56-61B9299FBB77.thumb.jpeg.8df37a1095ae321c0e6ee6c4e42365de.jpeg

Purchased them with a 20% Coupon Code I got with my ROG Impact 8 Motherboard. They'll be perfectly matching the Noctua fans. So 24 Pin, 8 Pin EPS and 8 Pin PCI-e in the perfect lengths in red and black with 3 aluminum cable combs in Black per Cable and are compatible with my Seasonic 1000PX Prime PSU of course. Also a USB 3.0 extension Cable in Red. Will Update this post with Pics from my Rig once I've found time to install them.

I'm Swiss and my Mother language is Swiss German of course, I speak the Aargauer dialect. If you want to watch a great video about Swiss German which explains the language and outlines the Basics, then click here.

 

If I could just play Videogames and consume Cool Content all day long for the rest of my life, then that would be sick.

Is it really a purchase if it's free?
image.png.00e16eec9987d35d55236993017c3a5d.png

Attempted update to OpenCore 0.7.5 from 0.6.3, attempt 2.

Attempt 1 failed because I forgot to flip a few settings, hopefully it'll go better this time.

Hi guys.

Went to local IT store (just 2 of them left in my city,due to IT equipment not selling at all for years,inflation,poor country etc) and saw how this is packed (pics).I opened and couldn't resist.

I mean it's not ifixit which could cost me around 80 euros.It's just basic set of tools as you can see.

Too bad the main screwdriver is not magnetic just like these 2 which have some weird edge I don't think I will ever use it on any screwes,who knows maybe they are for iPhone.

I paid around 17 euros for it.

So thoughts, do you like it?

20211114_080411.jpg

20211114_080435.jpg

 

Please do not take offence for my apparent confusion or rudeness,it's not intent me to be like that,it's just my BPD,be nice to me,and I'll return twice better,be rude and usually I get easly pissed of...I'll try to help anyone here,as long as it's something I dealt with,and even if you think I'm rude or not polite,forgive me,  it's not me it's my BPD.

Thanks for understanding.
