  • Working during Ramadan is tiring. First week with all the students back.

    One of the centrifuges let the magic smoke out so I get to lug that over to the equipment shop.

    Edit: My workplace quite literally just implemented a hiring freeze. I’m glad I just got in, and I hope they don’t fire me because I’m still probationary and it took MONTHS to get this job. (Started working here in November 2024)

    Edit 2: I work in a university.

  • That’s the last ATX compliant xps PC. I’d swap the wifi card for something else. It has some issues. That bug was patched out afaik.

    I’d also find a cheap gpu to put in it. There is a mount for a 92 mm fan in the front. You just have to remove some tape in the front of the PC covering a vent.

    Admittedly my friend games and does dev work on it.

    Also it could do with a repaste.

    As far as I know you can’t upgrade the CPU on that past the 6700.
