At least it's just the front glass. Fairly easy to replace.

Jay Leno uses YouTube video without permission, then has it blocked for copyright infringement by harmalain WTF

[–]fyre500 0 points1 point ago

So... the entire article speaks as though it was specifically Jay that ordered the DCMA take-down. He didn't. The video wasn't considered "Property of Jay Leno".

Yes, because Jay Leno literally went to the reps at NBC and said "Take down this Youtube video!".

No. Wait. He didn't. It was NBC's choice, not Jay's.

Thank you for the link that doesn't have a 1000% volume ad at the beginning.

Apparently he's smuggling a repost.

What I did at my summer job all last week. by jbick89in pics

Is this just a Dell thing? We got all new Dell computers for our classrooms last year and they came with keyboards and mice. Within a week, a handful of the rooms had a clip popped out. After a few months, half of the rooms (~125) were missing clips.

Not sure why you're getting downvoted for an opinion.

Tungsten Carbide isn't brittle. It's not like it's going to fall apart in your hands. If you drop it at just the right angle or put it in a vice and hit it with a hammer, it will break. However, you shouldn't be taking it off anyway, right?

I don't have any problem with Titanium. I only bought it to wear on my right hand and it was like $5. However, it just goes to show you how resistant the Tungsten is. I also prefer the weight of Tungsten.

Alright, Gainesvillains. Where should I be taking my car to have it serviced? by CaveWitchin GNV

Perhaps, but that's not what you said.

I'm more than well aware of the work that's being done to my car. Being someone who works on cars, I would know if the work being done to my cars is inadequate.

What work do you need done?

Clearly you've been going to the wrong places.

100% agreed. I have been going to them for 3.5 years for stuff I can't do on my own. Chris Crawford is a good guy. He has a very dry personality but that's part of the charm. Don't take it the wrong way. His mechanics are very knowledgeable and have no problem showing you the problem before committing to anything.

Since I've been going there for a while and because they know I work on my own cars as much as I can, they have no problem just taking a look at a problem for me and giving me their input without throwing dollar figures at me instead.

Just make sure you go early. They're usually packed by 10am or so and they don't do appointments.

Yeah. Your 4-year old is a real piece of shit. Can't believe they didn't know not to use flash!

Computer will not turn on... oh god. by chairfightin techsupport

[–]fyre500 1 point2 points ago

Those Youtube comments are talking about trying to get a harddrive to spin up. Ignore all of that. You're just testing to see if the PSU is working or not.

I doubt you'll find any spec that mentions a light on the motherboard.

This might only be a concern if you jump the wrong wires.

Are there any lights or anything showing up? Unplug the power, plug the power in, then look at the motherboard. Are there any lights on? Most motherboards will have a light on when there's good power to it.

If no, you could have a bad motherboard or a bad PSU. For now, forget buying a new PSU or trying to find a spare to test with. Just grab a paperclip and bend it into a U shape. Find a green wire and a black wire on the 20 or 24 pin main power for the PSU. Here's a Youtube video that shows how to do this in case you're confused. You just want to jump a green and black wire. With the power cable plugged in, jump the wires and check to see if the PSU fan spins. If it spins, the PSU is probably still good.

If the PSU shows as good, your motherboard is likely the culprit.
