The_Franz posted:the era of non-keyed connectors was a dire one indeed the worst connectors by far though were keyed and i am speaking about Molex 4-pin power. these mfers caused more bloodshed than any other single component afaik. they required so much torque to get loose and you'd always slam your hand info whatever sharp edges were behind it every single time

did anyone ever get Cable Select to work on IDE devices instead of master/slave with the flip in the pins between the two drive-side headers on the cable

Jonny 290 posted:and when did we start saving 0.007 per ram socket by only having one end be a latch, and the other's just a plastic hook that doesn't move? I paid a hundred and eighty dollars for that motherboard, what the gently caress weird i like the 1-sided clasp design a lot better i think lots of people broke the dual-clasps not quite understanding how the exact seating mechanic worked, and the single side gives a clearer implied method to seat them? And less force required. at least, *i* feel a lot less like im about to destroy the mainboard itself pushing ram down when using the leverage of the hinged side and swinging it down into place

Jim Silly-Balls posted:90% of people probably snap one side down first and then the other anyway so ddr pins will be just fine I've always done it perfectly symmetrical with two thumbs, one on each corner until it snapped in place on both sides simultaneously. At the cost of bending the board a lot, but it ended up fine so i figured that was the right way

ram is the kind of thing that is expected to be installed and removed like, 3 times in its entire lifespan. it's probably built to withstand hundreds of cycles you're not going to gently caress it up by applying slight torsion on the contacts during seating

The_Franz posted:honestly, upgradability these days is a non-issue, as by the time you are ready to upgrade anything, the whole system is ready for a refresh and it doesn't cost that much overall and you still only changed the ram a few times thats not something anyone has ever really just hosed with regularly so its got soft metals meant for maximum conductivity/contact, not super hard surfaces for utility use. so however you get it in there it's going to find a way. idk, that's at least in my mind's eye of the physics of it, maybe im way off. there's gotta be a youtube on just this

4lokos basilisk posted:websites that do some instant redirect fuckery so you have to be really fast on the back button, and also sites that totally wipe out history somehow First off make sure you're not running any container plug-ins that isolate websites from infiltrating other data, like Facebook or Amazon etc… Those will eliminate the back history because it's technically a new container tab

 It's a sealed 12" JL 12W3v3-4 with the matching JD500/1 amp. no visible branding. and the grate is already getting beat to hell, which is fine. i got 3 big dogs + a house and the trips to home depot that go with it. hence why it's not pristine, i know i need to vac again, but it's a utility vehicle, not show. the sub itself is nice tho and just nestles in between the two 2nd row seatsn at armrest height.
