    Me as well. Got some work to complete as well. I am happy we hit 750. Will be back for more hype very soon

    seems like there was zero hyping for the past 5hrs.. everybody got something to do this weekend.. somehow not the way it's always been..

    Well, usually we have people from multiple timezones on this thread. So, hyping was mostly equally shared. This year though some of the usual hype squad members aren't very active :(

    For example, last year while US/UK/EU members of the hype squad handled hyping for a time period, we Indians used to handle the other. This time though trk, xpress and sikkygoose aren't very active.

    A single picture can't explain what pain is, right? What about this one?

    Has anyone gotten this before? I check the CPU placement atleast 5 times from all angles with direct light from all sides, before I close the CPU lid on the motherboard. In the current market, such a mistake would be extremely costly.

    oh yeah.. a few bent ones, and you're fcuked. it is so hard to straighten those.. like it was made to go wrong at any mishandling..

    Some of those pins are trivial and might not affect the performance in any major way, but, if you mess up one of those rimporrant pins, for most average customers, it's game over.

    the thing is, if you cannot insert a pin, it is bent and means that whole CPU doesn't fit fully in.. unless you break the pin, which happens on its own after you keep trying to adjust it..

    Yah. I built my first in 2021 and haven't had to go through that sweaty palms moment since then. Hope I don't have to again :lol:

    i built my first in 2001.. LOL.. from spare parts taken out of PCs found by the side of the road in the little development i used to live at back then.. and it was building and building and rebuilding ever since. up until 2018. at this point i am convinced it is much more beneficial and way easier just to buy one prebuilt and ready to go. even overclocked on the plant, if that is affordable. maybe not these days, but still i am sure plants are producing PCs from parts they bought 2-3 years ago, so should be extra expensive just yet...

    Oh yah, I regularly watch those restoration videos. Makes me wonder why I don't find gold on the sides of road here :lol: esp given much of the ewaste does end up here.

    But yeah, could mount an image and it should work.

    this is the part i am unfamiliar with..

    Does the provider's faq or any other document provide details about the steps to mount iso drive?

    nope.. one of those 6-article knowledge bases..

    And upon contacting them, what do they have to say when requesting details about mounting a custom iso?

    waiting to get a reply..

    It's been more than 3 days now right?

    no i got reply last night saying "mount an iso as a quick workaround" which didn't tell me much, thus all my questions here, since i know many of you guys are linux pros..

    Do they just expect you to study and understand their infrastructure and then figure out how to mount an iso on their hardware that you dont have full access to??? That's just odd and a useless response more than being vague which I previously mentioned. It's like shifting blame to the customer for the provider's lack of proper planning.

    i guess it's assumed that anyone getting LET BF offer knows their way around Linux and ISOs and such..

    But that still doesn't explain how you are supposed to mount an iso if the provider doesn't give you the tools to do that. This is interesting though. BTW, can you tell me what you get when you boot the VPS. Is there any lightweight distro or something already running there?

    just debian 13. i think rescue is available too.. can't recall now, no menu option is available now, everything complains that it cannot be accessed while server is performing a task..

    What are you actually trying to do?

    If he hasn't yet answered, he is trying to run Ubuntu 24 to install and setup dante-server on a VPS that has Debian running currently. They don't have Ubuntu yet, so, he has been asked to add Ubuntu ISO on his own. But, the provider hasn't provided any specific instructions on how to add the ISO and boot from it, since the managing panel or dashboard on the provider doesn't seem to have such an option.

    This might be a very foolish suggestion. But, would it be possible to download and bott off an ISO using the grub commandline?

    maybe.. i am yet to try all the advice i received.. server is still performing task.. still inaccessible.

    Dude, at this point, it'd be safe to say this is unacceptable. How many days has it been stuck at the same performing task status?

    a day and a half..

    Oh, I felt like it had been lot more than that

    i've been complaining about it a lot, but since the last incident been only day and a half so far..

    Oh ok. Yah, maybe cause we have been discussing the incident like a lot

    i checked and it was @schrauger who mentioned Futurama.

    I don't know which comment you're referring to, but if it related to Futurama, that definitely sounds like me.

    when a reference went unheeded, i "accused" @noob404 of knowing and loving Futurama. he said he didn't. so i looked up who did. it was you! =) nothing else.

    :lol: hope you guys are modern family fans though.

    BTW, anyone here have experience with bending the pins back to their original position. I have seen people recommend either a razor blade or a plier. If you have done this before, which one would you recommend?

    Did it with a plier once, no issue. Gotta be careful though.

    Yah, I haven't built many PCs to face this issue but the images and videos online of bent pins scares me. So, wa prepping for something like that in the future.

    Do yous recommend it to someone who's a family guy loving kinda guy?

    Futurama is a great cartoon. There;s this episode about a dog he had.. even now i feel deeply about it.. basically main character disappeared and they kept showing as the time goes and the dog is waiting.. tears were shed... lots of fun bringing weed was smoked.. and yet i still have water in my eyes just thinking about it.. i like animals. very much. and that episode was a real tearjerker.. it is made by Matt Groening, the creator of The Simpsons, one of the cartoons on TV that time and time again praises family values..

    If that brought you to tears, might not be a good idea to watch the movie on Hachiko or Frankenweenie. I teared up watching thoe

    no takebacks. once you said it - it's in stone. you have 1 hr to change it, but after that - nothing can be changed..

    Already changed it.

    Watched MI: FR completely and I believe this was the perfect ending to the franchise. Loved it!

    the ending was very colorful with those planes and all. very very eye pleasing.

    Yes, and I love the way they kept playing with the aspect ratio

    hope i win a mug in the lottery in 5 days..

    i don't even need the top prize..

  • bchotbchot Member

    cause if i don't - i will end up buying one.. while it's same result, the tea from the mug you win is much more enjoyable. i bet.
