Been too busy to mouth off around here. I’ve been meaning to say that when I upgraded my computer I was (as usual) unhappy with the noise level of the stock CPU fan. I saw something about this Cool n’ Quiet mode on my processor and switched it on. Holy cow. It is indeed both cool AND quiet. My processor temperature is 32C right now and it’s ridiculously quiet. Very happy with it and it’s looking like I won’t have to buy myself a $100 specialty fan — woo, a savings!

So…32C is like room temperature, right?
Sorry for being an uncultured bastard. I don’t see why the U.S. needs to have its own system of measurements, especially when meters and celsius are so much easier to use. How many feet are in a mile? 5000-something. How many meters are in a kilometer? 100. Who can use 12ths and 16ths easily?

Dylan: 32C is like warm summer’s day. The inside of my computer is beautiful.

“How many meters are in a kilometer? 100.”
Well… not to be a jerk… but Kilo is for thousand. So… 1000. In any event… I do support the metric system.

Hey, we inherited it from the Brits, don’t blame us just because they’re quitters.
