hey have i mentioned Cartooners by any chance yet on masto

I AM A POWERFUL ENBYFEMME PRINCESS AND I would like a hug if that's okay I mean sorry for yelling and all that I just you know feel kinda good and everything um sorry for being so loud again hi.

Hi I'm Ren I am at my first appointment at a GIC, waiting for it to start because I turned up half an hour early, AMA*

(*: Do not actually ask me anything because any response is likely to be AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA because I am so excited/unsure/nervous/scared, I'm not sure which my anxiety has not yet decided which it should be. Maybe it wants to be all of them)

CONCLUSION: I did it right and the two new fans suck a lot of air in, the stock case fan that still works blows all that cool air out. :D cpu temp actually dropped like 10 degrees too who knew.

at midnight of course. this takes some bodgejobbing. I have the right sockets on the motherboard, I have ONE correct fan mounting on the case that is unused for a 120mm fan. aaaand a BIGGER mounting for the dead fan that I want to replace. the two fans are not as powerful but are extremely quiet so i have themboth do the job of the dead fan : blowing air in.

PROBLEM: I forget to check what direction the remaining stock case fan is blowing air.

SOLUTION: use bare toebeans to check airflow

WELP

one of the (very ancient) case fans in my case gave up the ghost just now. I mean it didn't die sudenly but it DID start making a horrible racket at gone midnight when everyone is asleep (except for me because I am garbage)

So cue me pulling off the case, checking which fan is failing, realising that the fan is SO shot that the bearings are generating HEAT, so out that thing comes immediately once power is off.

and replacing it with two SMALLER fans that are WAY newer and unused.

aaaa connection is being a bit of a dingus :<

Frazzled sknq needs to sleep more but keeps waking up earlier than intended and is still very sore and achey from Sunday and wishes they had be we n able to take the week off

Pardon. That was a paniced blushy flail. Having a mild multi threading problem

It has come to my attention that I unintentionally lewded in a reply and let me first apologise

And then I will blush profusely and attempt to explain I did not mean to lewd and I swear it was innocently intended
