Can't pump up anything without a good amplifier, which is what this comes from. I'll just throw a few words around to sound like I know what I'm talking about (which I don't) - heat sink, fins (for cooling), other stuff...well, that was it then.

 

Here's the song - we're going back to the '90s with Technotronic's Pump Up The Jam:

Drag racing has always been hazardous, even when it's 1:10 scale RC.

 

The real irony here is, I shot this on the street just outside the fence where the Fremont Dragstrip used to be. Just a minor crash; no real damage. Just knocked the heatsink loose from its mount.

 

Fremont California.

I noticed this plume of smoke which I assumed was a prescribed burn or bush fire. Turns out it was actually a 60ft cabin cruiser that caught alight in the Hillarys boat harbour. A bad day for someone.

 

I like seeing the cycle paths weaving through the limestone coast vegetation here. I have a couple of closer views I will post soon. It also gives a view of the large amount of parking (heatsink!) provided at this Marina development.

Stay cool with heatsinks

The tech support guys at work had a machine opened up on a work table with this cool metallic thing beside it. I was told it is a heatsink and it's job is to cool down the CPU.

The backside of one of two heatsink devices inside an early-2010s iMac I parted out. The copper plate, held in contact with the microprocessor* with a generous amount of thermally conductive paste between the surfaces, transferred heat to the copper tubes leading to the radiator, where fans would exhaust the waste heat. (The graphics processor has its own heatsink using the same basic configuration.

 

The paint-like look of the radiator is the background reflection against the metallic film covering the sides, not from actual paint.

The ground might be brown and grey and muddy, but the mountains are still gorgeous.

 

The little reddish cylindrical dojobbers you see near the highway are heatsinks for the Trans-Alaska Pipeline - the oil running through the pipeline is super hot, and the pipeline there is underground, so there needs to be devices to release that heat lest is melt the permafrost and cause the pipeline and surrounding objects (like the road!) to sink.

Cant stop digging up heatsinks for these MM-themes. I promise i'll cut down on the selective coloring of 'm:p. Just think that for a practical ,often obscured device hidden from sight they are very fascinating objects for abstract photography ( and selective colouring addicts) HMM

 

-edit When editing i accidently moved the exposure-slider all the way to the right after i selectivly coloured it. The result was rly cool! Imagine the backgroundtone to lightgrey and the coloured bit brightred as if it was glowing metal.. kinda a wow moment for me, but i was 2 much of a chicken to post it. Should i? or should i keep cackling and be conservative:p tell me!

1= Wait for an unsuspecting friend to ask you to fix their laptop

2= Carefully disassemble the laptop to verify a fresh thermal paste seating will sufice

3= Layout parts at various angles using both led and tungsten lights to view cool patterns

4= Spend 1/2 hr photographically documenting the parts thoroughly from different angles

5= Review said documentation on your own laptop for the possibility something was missed

6= Post documentation disguised as research on flickr hoping for feedback via comments

7= Explain to friend that store has since closed preventing access to thermal paste for the evening

8= Remind friend they still have a working desktop system if their 'DTs' get too severe

9= Schedule 15 min after work next day to complete repair and reassemble

10= Spend next two hours on flickr relaxing and recovering from your strenuous research efforts

Project 366 2008 Jan 16 16/366

 

So, I had to buy a new motherboard for the Core 2 Duo processor that I was going to build a new computer with. The one I originally intended to use has died a premature death. This'll teach me to buy an electronic component and not use it for almost a year. The capacitors most likely dried out and after a few days the computer failed. This was before the holidays.

 

Well, the case for this computer is finally coming in after a number of upgrades in the family left me without an enclosure. So, now, hopefully by tomorrow I can finish this project.

 

So, what operating system am I planning to install? Some form of Linux. It's a toss up between Ubuntu 7.10 or openSUSE 10.3. I'm going to compare a number of virtualization technologies to run Windows with. Xen, Virtualbox, VMware. I'm going to see which one provides the best performance.

popped off the heatsink and got a shot of the processor core and caches on the card

my old heatsink was quite elegant for her size..

"contraption" MM

This Electro Laser Support Rifle is a fairly obscure design made by Vostok Tek, the rifle it's self is fairly cumbersome (Around the weight of an unloaded PKM) but that is due to the large battery that sits under the Laser Array Combining module. The Model 87 ELSR is designed to be used as a long range sniping weapon or to disable electronic equipment.

 

Battery holds 20 "Charges" and the heatsink needs to be replaced after 100 shots.

 

Cost: 25,000$ USD

Broken gaming graphics card heat sink & cooling fan

Just a quick photo to test out my graphics card after having the thermal paste re-applied to the heatsink...

Aquilegia (Columbine)

 

Thursday means it’s Black & White day for the the 7DWF group.

 

Unbeknown to you, you had the option of a sea urchin shell (patterns and textures), a heatsink (abstract geometry), or this (pretty). Because of the mood I seem to be in at the moment I’m afraid you have got pretty... again :)

 

This is a sprightly mauve Aquilegia by my back lawn, taken from slightly underneath.

 

I’m still getting the hang of black and white. I find it difficult to imagine how something will turn out. My previous two or three B&W ideas have been sorry disasters (I have spared you the results).

 

Even in greyscale I wasn’t sure about this one, but it changed a lot in the processing and I am now quite pleased with it {pats himself on the head :) }. I hope you enjoy it anyway.

 

I am really getting to love Nik Silver Efex for B&W conversions - great fun. This is using the 2018 Nik Filters version that has just been released by DXO, stabilising what is already a good product with some tender love and care that Google wasn’t interested in providing.

 

Thanks for taking time to look. I hope you enjoy the image :) Happy 7DWF!

 

[Handheld in daylight.

Developed in Lightroom mainly to get a complete range of tones and colours in the image to maximise the stuff the convertor has to work on. The main challenge was to get detail into the highlights. The result, in colour, was quite odd!

Much of the dreaminess and bokeh came from the camera and lens, but I reduced Clarity to get more dreams…

Into Affinity - touch up with inpainting, careful crop to get the flower on the thirds lines, with a fair bit of image extension (invention) on the right using inpainting.

Sharpening with Unsharp, Clarity and High Pass/ Linear light blend - I was aiming to emphasise the stamens.

Conversion in Silver Efex starting with one of the darker high structure options, but a lot of tweaking from there to get the background out of the way and the emphasis where I was looking for it.

Slight dark vignette and simple frame.]
