Desktop wifi card N150/300

zeng — Fri, 09 Dec 2022 10:08:07 +0800

Hi Sifus,

In the market for a wifi card for an 8 year old Z77X-D3H intel gen3 desktop.

Which 'connector type' from above is best for 'signal loss' performance, price, availability and if it matters - sort of future proofing?

Note: Presently has a PCI-e wifi card on an intel gen4 desktop.

What is ur AC Charging Pressure for Low/High sides

zeng — Fri, 26 Aug 2022 10:50:14 +0800

Hi sifus,

During AC gas top up, charging pressure achieved is 30 psi low side and 210 psi high side. Ambient about 32°C.

My 2007 Avanza AC is cooler now than before, BUT not chilling cold (Can't remember whether original brand new AC on new Avanza is chilling cold or not).

Do I have to top up gas again, immediately after a top up according to this Chart?

Attacking GDI engine particulate emissions

Confirmation of the hazard comes via a recent study conducted by researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s (ORNL) Fuels, Engines and Emissions Research Center who found that sample GDI engines emit five to 10 times more particulate matter than their PFI counterparts.

Our IPTA/S as good as reputable OECD universities?

Quote :

However, the unemployment rate for fresh graduates of public universities was 24% while it was much higher at 57% for graduates of private universities.
The current Malaysian unemployment rate was merely 3%, and youngsters did not need to a higher education to get a job.
“The blueprint also tells that 45% of Malaysian fresh graduates only earn a meagre pay of less than Rm 1,500 and that’s if they get a job,”
“This means that higher education doesn’t really guarantee a good job,” he said. “Despite the 3-4 years spent in universities, in addition to exorbitant tuition fees, fresh graduates who begun work will be eligible to state welfare handouts (BR1M),” Williams stated.

Then wired from TP-Link 841ND router and connect to DLink 615 for wifi ......... the orange colour lighting on D-Link 615 is always on, and I couldn't access

D-Link 615 through 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.0.100.

Couldn't access internet too, though unifi is working ok with new TP-Link 841ND.
