I’m just a weird, furry, pan guy (cis he/him). I also have a big, blue username.

Currently on Earth for 8 years ensuring steps to unite humanity and usher us into the galactic civilization just so I can see my boyfriend again.

  • First, you need to remove the heat sink. It’s going to be latched or screwed into a bracket on the motherboard and you’ll need to undo those first.

    Once that’s off, there is going to be another latch for the cage that keeps the CPU down firmly in the socket. Undo that, lift the cover and the CPU should be somewhat easily removed from the socket.

    If the thermal paste has solidified enough to glue the heatsink to the CPU you might want to look up how to deal with that. If you apply too much pressure trying to pull it off, it could damage something, but you also don’t need to be super delicate. It can take a little bit of pressure.






  • They’re literally just asking mods to wield their power like a surgical scalpel and not a cudgel and actually do more than see a triggering keyword or phrase and instantly dropping the ban hammer based on a knee-jerk reaction.

    Someone who is misinformed saying something that is incorrect doesn’t mean they should be banned for spreading misinformation. There has to be intent behind it.

    Someone saying they wish so and so would drop dead shouldn’t instantly warrant a ban for “inviting violence” if it’s not an actual, credible, serious call for organized violence.

    I don’t really expect that shit to change, regardless. Most people who create a community, volunteer to moderate or even administrate a whole ass server, do so because they want to set the rules and run things their way.
