You all have Josh and Catie so very very wrong.

Catie is a hypersexualized thrill-seeker with some very obvious mommy-daddy issues. She’s clearly on the spectrum and this is noted by her inability to make eye contact while sober, and her facial ticks.

Josh is a simple, boring man. He’s the literal definition of true neutral.

There is without a shred of doubt in my mind, that Catie can be tamed. She seeks attention far too much with none of it seeking her.

If Josh would just fuck the shit out of her, and keep his arms around her in public, she’d probably be interested in acknowledging her actions. Josh lacks the ability to take control in a relationship, or his own life, as he’s the definition of a beta.

Yall want me to defend him, when he knows his girl is seeking attention, and the first thing he does when they go to a bar is sit in a corner and watch her like a sad dog?

Catie needs to be tamed by someone capable of taming her. Josh needs a nice quiet girl who enjoys reading books and watching Star Trek.

Seeing all of the discourse over the Steam machine really highlights how heartbreaking it is that this is a niche subreddit.

I mostly glossed over the Steam Machine when it was first announced, so seeing how polarizing the reaction to it is now is both amusing and a little disappointing.

What surprises me more is how niche SFF PCs still are. A huge portion of consumers don't even realize console-sized gaming PCs are an option.

It's always struck me as odd that SFF has remained largely an enthusiast DIY space. Aside from a handful of niche products and workstation-style systems, most major companies haven't seriously tried to capitalize on building compact gaming PCs that offer console-like convenience without the limitations of a closed ecosystem.

There seems to be a real gap in the market between traditional consoles and full-sized desktop gaming PCs, and I'm surprised more companies haven't tried to fill it.

I feel like I’m being punished for taking a cheat day. I’m not even sure if my body is digesting food anymore. Never have I looked in a toilet after pooping and saw what I ate the night before in almost perfect condition.

This medication is just fasting with a gun to my head.

Send help. I’ve been on the toilet for 2 hours at work. I guess tacos are now officially off the menu for me.

RIP to my iron belly. You’ll be missed

So the duster arrived and the hazardous waste landfill has officially been cleared out. I also saw some comments suggesting the issue could be related to the GPU riser, and I noticed there was a bit of wiggle in the connection ports.

I confirmed that the CPU cooler is plugged into CPU_FAN1, so the fan curve likely wasn’t the issue after all. I’m replacing the thermal paste now.

Any final suggestions before I put her back together?

Hoping to get some answers here. My Fractal Ridge build has recently starting shutting down after short gaming sessions and then flickers on and off until forcefully shut off and left to sit.

I’ve tried laying the system down, sitting it up right, and even tried different risers.

Idle temps seem fairly high at 51 Celsius. And at times it will crash then boot straight I bios, and I’ll see temps as high as 88 Celsius. The only error identified is a kernel 41 error.

Specs:

RTX 4070 TI Super

Corsair SF 750 W

Noctua NH-L12 Ghost CPU cooler

2 Noctua Whisper Quiet fans besides GPU (Intake).

3 noctua mini fans set at top placement (out take)

I7 12700k CPU

32GB DDR5

Any and all help would be appreciated.
