re: Risk of Rain 2 

@jaycie I'm hoping the cleaning I did will also prevent me from bluescreening so often in VRChat

Risk of Rain 2 

I finally completed "The Long Road" challenge just a bit ago. I'd been trying to complete it a few times, but ROR2 kept deadlocking on the 2nd or 3rd loop. Presumably this was due to CPU voltage sagging caused by excess heat, due to the computer's output vent being hot to the touch when this happened.

But, with me cleaning the dust out of the case this morning, the computer, my computer is running much cooler, so I was able to complete the 20 stages required for The Long Road challenge without the game deadlocking!

@VK3VKK That's probably what happened. Looking at my graphics card specs online, it looks like it does have a DisplayPort

Well, I got it mostly clean before the canned air started running out out. Just booted up and everything seems to be working.

Of particular note, my GPU's baseline running temperature appears to be 20 degrees cooler than normal (in fahrenheit). CPU seems to be running 5-10 degrees cooler as a baseline.

Wow, took the front cover off and there was a LOT of dust built up o.o

Also, there are some dust bunnies trapped under the dust screen on the front, and there's no easy way to remove it.

@k Only a DVI port and I am not sure I have a proper adapter for that.

Well, two initial thoughts:
1) The HDMI mini adapter has apparently gotten permanently stuck/fused into the slot on my GPU. I hope I didn't damage anything while trying and failing to remove it >,<

2) The amount of dust in the computer is not as bad as I thought it would be, though there is still a lot

Getting ready to give my computer a long overdue dusting. Hopefully this will help keep my computer from bluescreening during the VRChat meetups

Booted up my windows drive to do maintenance, and somehow iTop VPN wound up on my computer without my knowledge or permission?

Uninstalled that crap ASAP

@reno emphasis on butts if you do >.>

Showered, clean, and enjoying the feeling of my curly hair brushing the back of my neck :3
