They replaced my 13900k after about a week of back and forth with their support department, after getting transferred between like 5 agents for some reason. It took a lot of patience to get through that process. RMA took 3 weeks. I bought a $150 i5 so I could still use my PC. I’m not sure how much faith I have that the new one won’t fail as well.

That said, the amount of troubleshooting and wasted time that it took to figure out that the CPU was responsible for months of random crashes while gaming was frustrating, to say the least. Even a complete refund would barely dent the cost of my wasted time. My next PC will be rocking AMD.

Definitely!

Widely regarded as one of the greatest players in the history of the sport, Iranian president Ebrahim Raisi won five NBA championships and was an 18-time All-Star, a 15-time member of the All-NBA Team, a 12-time member of the All-Defensive Team, the 2008 NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP), and a two-time NBA Finals MVP.

The tough part is that you are both correct.

Lol, someone is cranky because they didn’t know what moonshot meant.

You’re not wrong, but just to be clear: Musk did not invent the Tesla.

Fuck me. Is it too late to hop into a different timeline?

I think that it’s fairly safe to say that nobody uses a gaming laptop on their lap when gaming, particularly mouse and keyboard players. I only use mine when I travel for work, and I bring a proper keyboard and mouse with me.

That said, I do occasionally use it on my lap. When not gaming, the heat produced is pretty low and it works just fine. It also has small intake vents on the side.

So, I get that someone is trying to populate this community with posts using the lemmit.online bot. And that the vast majority of us are coming from Reddit. And that AITA is a staple community that we’re used to seeing in our feeds.

However, it seems like that just copying content into an otherwise empty community is just feeding a sterile wasteland. There is almost no engagement on the copied posts, and worse: I think it will smother any actual new content that gets posted in this wasteland of copied content. (I stand corrected, after trying to post this there I found out that only mods have priveleges to post. It’s worse than I thought, and I’ll probably just block it from my feed if it’s only a Reddit echo chamber)

What do you think, AITA?
