  • They should not us LUkS and instead use veracrypt for folders and files. That way if any repartitioning or modification is needed it’s simple in gparted or GNOME disks on mint.

    Source is been there and done that. Luks partitions are not easily resized.







  • At this point you need to be watching sodium due to kidneys, and looking for slightly higher carb contents but not sugars. Dogs don’t have the same metabolism as humans. High fat surely will add weight but sour the stomach and turn it acidy likely theyll eat grass or vomit of its too bad but their bodies will store carbs quicker as their rapid burn or store calories. Up the carbs. Try pastas with a bit of meat test for types they like, think alfredo with chicken or spaghetti with not long noodles, low salt, a ton of lost weight is likely water weight, Chinese foods, vary the diet and feed them what they want like your foods And I’m serious do human foods so simply make more of your foods your eating and share. Heat things up, make it special in their eyes, feed from your own plate encourage table scrap behaviour to keep excitement. Little less fiberous foods but enough to keep the digestive moving. Add a dog probiotic makes a world of difference do it daily, more is not better, normal doseage and consistency is most key. Fish oil. Exercise keeps the body young and appetite hungry.



  • The Noctua NH 15 is a great air cooler one of the best air coolers actually. What are you pairing it to? What CPU?

    Almost all things noctua are good. However. They are expensive and if you’re not plotting on future cpu high TDP chips it’s overkill. I don’t honestly see the need to drop that much money on a CPU cooler. There’s near equal more cost effective options. Unless your doing major overclocks, cpu heavy loads at near max clock speed constantly where you think major wear and tear will happen I don’t for see the need to spend that much. I’ve built many many PCs.

    You can find comparable air coolers much cheaper. Think 50 to 80 range and technically you can score them on eBay for cheaper than that. Look at the Phantom spirit 120 cheapest 30 to 40 usd, AK620 1 to 3c cooler than phantom 50 to 65usd, frost commander 140 80usd, noctua DH 15 150 to 180usd.

    Of course prices fluctuate. Those get you the best ranked air coolers for the most part. Their all within roughly 5C of each other. All good coolers. Take the extra money savings and add to a GPU or whatever part you really need. I just seen you already have the noctua dh15 so in that case you were testing me to see what I knew. LOL. Enjoy you got a great cooler.


  • Thats what the manufacturer says but… 95c is damn near boiling at 203f. That is too hot to sustain any good longevity of a part, and any good workload for any component in a PC. That is a lot of heat. You will not get the best performance for a processor at its maximum temperatures running it like that all the time or even close to its max operating temp. I’m not saying you can’t hit that number but ideally you really really shouldn’t.

    So what I said I think stands. Upgrade to a better air cooler and if need be a water cooler at least a 240AIO nothing smaller period. Keep temps lower and parts last longer. Performance boosts during core loads hold clocks longer. No question.
