    Everything below 90 is cool.

    If that's the CPU temperature then it's running really efficiently, you'd expect up to 100Β°C if you were doing something intense!

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    It can't reach 100C, it's a 10 year old Core i3 🀷 πŸ˜‚.

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    That means your fans are good then!

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

    Yeah, some dust maybe, but other than that, they still work like a caharm πŸ˜‚.

    [–] [email protected] 31 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    That's nothing. My laptop regularly reaches 100C doing basic gaming lol.

    Is this a Linux kernel 6.66 joke?

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

    No, the 66Β°C was just a coincidence πŸ˜‚.

    Maybe we'll discover Gentoo is emitting as much CO2 as China

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    It's Void, but still πŸ˜‚.

    Time to test out that 8 year old thermal paste!

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

    It's actually 11 years old 😬, but I changed it a few years ago ☺️.

    Just out of curiosity I just started building the Linux kernel to see what my system does, but the CPU isn't going over 10% load and is hovering around 40 degrees. I just ran make without any parameters, is there a way to get it to use more than a single cpu core at a time?

    Edit: Now we're cooking. make -j$(nproc)

    99% CPU utilization at 56 degrees.

    Such an understatement for 56C πŸ˜’.

    Oh, good, a sane person that uses air cooling.

    I have a BeQuiet one on my desktop... can't remember the model though 😁.

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

    my laptop is at 56Β°C idle, then again it is summer here

    edit: the moment i went to check it is now at 47Β°C with the browser open. maybe it was reporting the wrong temperature or it's just cooler today

    I need to take this thing apart and blow the dust from the fan πŸ˜‚.

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    You might want to replace your thermal paste as well.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

    Yeah, of course, no way I'm assembling it with the old thermal paste πŸ‘.

    winter is hitting hard on some parts, I see

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

    yt-dlg. It's wxPython based, so it takes A LOT of time and CPU power... or maybe my laptop is just old πŸ˜‚.
