    14th Gen "Raptor Lake Refresh"

    I doubt whole system power consumption is hugely different once you add in the rest of components.

    Your bad driving encounters

    The better farmers around here do it quite a bit, but with modern traffic patterns they are doing it less and less because they can easily end up in the exact same position repeated times on the same journey and/or non-trivial to rejoin the road again, not to mention the abuse. I was following...

    New gearbox after 25k miles

    I don't know much about gearboxes/auto transmission mechanically but in my experience these kind of dealerships don't want to do any real diagnostic work and will happily try to narrow it down by suggesting replacing big ticket items :( sometimes they assume in the first hand you have some kind...

    14th Gen "Raptor Lake Refresh"

    There have been some smaller number of reports of supposedly the same issue with lower tier 13th and 14th gen but I don't know if they are actually the same issue - the motherboard vendor BIOS optimisations for these CPUs are also running without the power limits, etc. of the Intel specs, but...

    14th Gen "Raptor Lake Refresh"

    I rarely see more than ~150 watt draw from my 14700K while gaming with a 4080 Super at 1440p. No one seems to have really looked at what the impact is on the CPUs sub i9 yet.

    Doing a spot of hiking

    On the subject of footwear - annoyed Merrell axed the Polarand 6 - look great and the grip on wet mud or ice was sublime but mine have seen better days now.

    What is the version of DOS in Windows 10?

    There are ways to change the text colour in DOS but I'm a bit out of the loop and it depends a bit on version, pretty sure there are distributions of DOS now which include most of the features found in 10/11.

    COVID-19 (Coronavirus) discussion

    You seem to be mixing up some stuff there - droplet isn't just surface transmission and can happen over the air at close proximity and shorter time durations and is a significant factor in COVID transmission. Even in an indoor setting with crowd mobility even basic masks can offer substantial...

    What is the version of DOS in Windows 10?

    There is no DOS version in Windows 10/11 - it is a command interpreter sub-system without the underlying operating system (32bit versions have the NTVDM implementation, 64 bit 10 and Windows 11 do not).

    Dead Boy Detectives | Netflix

    Only watched one episode so far but... I don't think I'm the target audience... just feels like they had a lot of "that would be cool" ideas and stuck them in a melting pot.

    Amazon Prime sucks massive donkey balls

    They do that here most of the time (even though there is someone in) - dump on the doorstep, "handed to resident". Can't say I'm that bothered by it though maybe with all the CCTV they reckon it is safe enough heh.

    Helldivers 2

    They seem to have increased the impact on movement speed certain slopes have and generally amped up the physics interaction with the environment and largely it isn't a good idea as in a networked game it just magnifies any problems when network conditions are less than excellent - related to...

    This Instant And Moment - 2024!

    Had that once and they had no end of trouble getting it back off to fit the crown.

    YouTube Premium

    Not seeing that - but they seem to have broken some stuff behind the scenes IMO with attempts to combat ad blocking, which even affects people who are paying for premium in some cases. They seem to go through phases, not sure if general or individual, of intentional patterns of ads intended to...

    Need help with a PCN...signage on the opposite side of the road

    According to the news reports those restrictions are quite successful at shifting the congestion and pollution on to other areas... a lot of which is probably caused by the parking :s

    Doing a spot of hiking

    To be fair just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Though I wouldn't bother personally with hiking boots for a lot of moderate walking and hiking over trail shoes.

    14th Gen "Raptor Lake Refresh"

    I'm not really clued into the context with LLC here but this is the crux of it really and where impedance comes into play at a given power requirement if the voltage drops the current goes up, which can destroy components rated for higher voltages but not sufficient current carrying.

    Workhorse recommendations

    I've seen some people with T4 Transporters with 4WD doing some pretty crazy stuff off-road while towing - but most vans like this are sub 3500Kg towing capacity, though some Transits are 3500. Most SUVs now are just crossovers rather than traditional SUVs with more robust suspension and more...
