    I think you're supposed to tighten it, not loosen it. Think about it this way: the natural tendency is to tilt upwards slightly. Tightening the screw makes it more resistant to doing its own thing. I used to setup computer labs for the school department in the summertime for years, but that...

    You should be able to very precisely adjust the load. The default assumes that you will have it slightly lower than eye-level and tilt slightly upward.

    Of course he would, I've been saying that from the start. It's the only way the move makes any sense at all. Pulling a Michael Dell is one of the BDE-est moves you can make.

    Imagine believing this guy is an "outsider" just like you! He's not an outsider, he's just a liar and a crook (just like the Clintons.) It's like you're so close to getting it and yet falling short, simp.

    Yes, read the constitution. They judges are all independent actors. It only takes 1 judge to take up a case. They do not need any type of consensus across the judicial branch to decide to take up cases. Trump appointed 234 judges, including 174 district court judges. Over 50 cases were...

    There's no one monolithic "judicial branch", there's 870 federal judges who have broad ability to act on their own, see the one judgelady in Florida who was able to overturn the mask mandate for transportation for the entire country. Surely if there was even a shred of a viable case regarding a...

    It just doesn't add up. Over 100 judges have looked at this 'evidence,' including Trump loyalists. None of them see a single case there. The only person that tried to steal the election was Trump. We have an audio recording of it, it's an hour long. When that didn't work, he tried to...

    Democrats have a magical ability to steal elections but don't use it to steal local, state, governor seats and congressional elections, just the presidency, and only sometimes! And of course the evidence of this is going to come out in a documentary made for profit, not the courts, not even...

    That's actually not how open-source or machine learning actually works. Open source does not mean you can see the code running like you were in the Matrix. It just means you have a copy some portion of the code that's been made public (and also free to use and incorporate into other...

    In an airflow design, top fans can pull the front intake air out of the case before it ever gets a chance to cool stuff around the CPU socket, actually causing more problems. You generally do not want top fans too close to the front intakes.

    (Also depends on how much heat your CPU produces and how much cooling your motherboard VRMs need.)

    1 or 0 top fans is usually correct, depending on the layout of the case and type of CPU cooler.

    Yes, assuming you have a dedicated GPU. You definitely want the bottom fans intaking air directly into the GPU or else there's no real reason for the bottom fans to exist.
