Re: The Happy Thought Thread - Part 2
Is it just me or is anyone else really excited about year zero?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread - Part 2
Been meaning to clean the dust out of my CPU's heatsink for over a week. Just got round to doing it & knocked 10°C off the temperature.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread - Part 2
Good thing to do Alien 
I often do it on my case fans too with those cotton wool bud's.
Really helps to lower the temperature.
Happy thought: The rain has finally stopped.

Yeah, I do it every now & then, but thankfully my current case has a filter for the front intake fan, so don't need to do the heatsink as often as I had to with the last case.

With my current CPU fan I don't need to remove it to get at the dust. As the dust mostly tends to accumulate on top of the fins of my heatsink, rather than between them, I used a screwdriver to carefully hook out the larger clumps, then just blasted the rest out with a foot pump [used my hand to pump it though] & some little plastic nozzle adapter thing that came with it [got no other use for it as the pump fits my bike's tires just fine without it].

Re: The Happy Thought Thread - Part 2
The plumber's been & gone, & I've set my VCR for progs I want to watch early evening, so don't have to struggle to keep my eyes open anymore.

I agree with Gaz, it would be Virgins loss to loose such a dedicated experienced member of staff.
