This is the "official" Fediverse community for all things pro wrestling!

Come discuss pro wrestling! Any company or era is welcome.

Please ensure you have NSFW posts enabled or you may miss out on some threads. Bots are not used in this community.

Rules: (Click to expand)

1. Be Civil.

Users are expected to be civil and inclusive towards one another at all times. Remember the person on the other side of the screen. Hate speech, racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia and other inflammatory language is prohibited.

2. Keep content related to wrestling.

Any content posted should at least be related to pro wrestling somehow.

3. Spoilers.

Do not spoil events for people. If an event is going on, please keep discussion contained to the/a discussion thread for 24h after the event. Do not post spoilers in titles during this period. Use the spoiler function when you need to, it's there for a reason. Should your post involve a url to a spoiler (Twitter, YouTube video, etc) please mark the thread as NSFW as well so thumbnails are blurred.

4. Vague/Editorialized Title.

Please keep the titles of any articles you post clear, understandable, and indicative of what the article states within. It's ok to alter the title if the original is clickbait and confusing, or contains a spoiler like a debut that just occurred that day, but do not add your own thoughts to it.

5. Sexualized Content/'Plot'.

Please do not post any pornographic, 'creep shot', or similar adult-related material to the community (regardless of connection to wrestling). Wrestling content that involves sexualized content (in storylines/matches/promos) is fine, as well as photo's wrestlers post to their own social medias. Butt-shots you take with your cell phone at a house show aren't.

6. Banned Source(s).

Due not necessarily to the content of their reporting, but to their harassing and doxxing of users, the following news sources, journalists, and content creators are not permitted to be posted on SquaredCircle in any context - including direct links, articles, social media, and reports that cite only those sources:

  • WrestleVotes
  • RingSideNews
  • Brad Shepard
  • Billi Bhatti and "The Dirty Sheets"
  • Any post or article citing one of the above as a primary source.

I'm getting real tired of trying to brush thermal paste out of a CPU socket and I just really needed to state that.

Friend built and shipped us a PC to replace my wife's dying laptop, once it hit the border the customs office fistfucked it somehow and we've been trying for days to clean it up, fix it, and figure out what exactly they broke so we can file a claim.

like...this fucking heatsink is supposed to sit..well exactly how you think a heatsink fits, but when it arrived and you took the side of the case off you could see it was at an angle. It was still securely screwed in place, the fucking thick ass steel pipes were fucking bent. That doesn't happen in shipping, that doesn't happen unless you open the case and wrench the fucking thing to hell.

Inside of the glass panel was scratched, the thing will not POST which could be the CPU (I bought a second one to test as well), then noticed the paste in the bracket 🤦‍♂️ and buddy 100% did the thermal paste correctly as he's not an idiot so that's on the customs fuckers. 3 of its 8 fans aren't working (but that's at least minor), just a big clusterfuck so I've been scrubbing this cunt with a saw'd down toothbrush and ISO for the last 3 days trying to get the paste out with a bad back and possible torn muscle letting me bend down for no more than 2 mins at a time and several days of horrid sleep.

So I'll find out hopefully in the morning when I finish if its the CPU, or if the motherboard is also fucked and hopefully find a way to locate said customs office agent and fistfuck their arsehole the same way they did the PC while on my way to a repair shop 🙃

Edit: Also super glad he swapped cases and thermals before sending the PC to us cause it was gonna be watercooled 🤣 I could only imagine the mess..

Update: The problem is still unknown.

it was not, however, the thermal paste in the socket 🤦‍♂️ nor the CPU as the brand new one is also red-lighting. Repair shop time, damnit lol.
