World of Warships - Show off your good rounds.
eidolonFIRE replied to eidolonFIRE's topic in General Discussion
Yes. There is also the case that if you are in smoke and you don't shoot your AA, you are hidden even when planes are overhead. But, if you are in smoke, there are planes overhead, and you shoot AA, you will be spotted. -

solidarity.... I have learned some things that help with destroyers: - Know your ship's detection range and stay back from ships so you don't get detected. - If you are detected, everybody will shoot at you ... and you will die. - Turn off your AA at the start of the match. - (mostly for Jap destroyers) Don't fire your guns... they 1.5x your detection range and you will be more easily spotted. - Watch out for enemy scout planes. - People LOVE to shoot at destroyers because they are soft. ....Don't get spotted.... -

NICE!!! Destroyers are my favorite! They are such high stakes, high action! Much funner than playing a battleship. -

Looks pretty fun... I'm not rushing out to buy though.

I was in Sacramento for the day and I decided to go down to the river to mess around with my camera... I don't really know anything about taking nature shots... so I figured I'd experiment. -

I've got this one: http://www.amazon.com/Rokinon-Fisheye-E-Mount-Cameras-RK8MBK28-E/dp/B00JD4TA7I/ref=sr_1_4?s=photo&ie=UTF8&qid=1443855831&sr=1-4&keywords=rokinon+8mm 8mm fish eye by same company. I've posted several shots here that I took with it. It's super sharp! I love this lens. -
What? You can take caps in and out of wh now?

You can't... You can use an industrial though

You gotta read the description of the wh entry/exit to know what kind it is and how much time/mass it has left on it. I've been stranded my fair share of times... Hauling your precious archnor in/out tends to collapse a lvl3 hw pretty quickly

<50C Excellent 50-60C Getting pretty warm 60-80C Look into getting a better cooler... you prolly get the occational blue screen 80-90C The danger zone! >90C Complete failure

I think they have a shindig at hxtr's on fridays.

Server blades are a far cry from home PC's; they aren't even remotely similar. Air and liquid setups are VASTLY different between home consumer and blade servers. For starters, air cooled blade servers have tiny wimpy heat sinks with 2 inch fans that scream at full power around the clock regardless of load. The air setups we are comparing in home PC's aren't even on the same planet from the cheap'es they put in blade servers. If you spec'd out the a good air cooler for your cpu, it should keep a fully loaded cpu well below damaging levels running at 70% rpm. Also, the liquid heat exchangers and the bases for air heatsinks are similar in size. They both are larger than the cpu contact footprint. They have very similar "spread" and cool plenty even enough. Copper and aluminum are very heat conductive; there's no issue with "cooling evenly" bs.

You're describing a heat capacitor... You could try that with liquid nitrogen or just a giant bucket of water. However, it doesn't matter how big your heat capacitor is, eventually it's going to fill up and it will get hot as well. You could also use a peltier device to pull away the heat (as many people have done this with CPUs). The drawback however is that the device consumes 60watts itself and a large chunk of that goes into heating the hot side of the device resulting in gratuitous amounts of heat to get rid of.

The chip inherently heats up as tons of power is being pumped through it and it has some resistance hence the heat generation. If the heat is not expelled in some way it will continue to heat up indefinitely. What do you mean by materials that will absorb heat? ... all materials are capable of conducting heat as a perfect energy insulator doesn't exist. Copper is one of the best heat conductors we know of followed closely by aluminum. If you think about it, our current processors are actually rather impressive and hold up in heat very well. 200F is the typical failing point before the gates stop functioning and the chip is non-functional.

The Star Wars Battlefront Beta is Coming October 8th
eidolonFIRE replied to JAYsus_NL's topic in General Discussion
The dedicated server model is already out the door as far as big game studios are concerned. There are many reasons big studios favor this method. I doubt you will see very many more games with a server browser coming from these studios. (indie games obviously will still use it though) -
How so? A sufficient air cooler will keep the components well below any damaging level of heat. If anything, the increased risk of a coolant leak will on average shorten the life of your computer.

great coolers for swampy nuts.

I have fond memories of the first two SWBF games... hope they don't fuck this up!
