My CPU (AMD FX-6300) temp sensor (k10temp-pci-00c3) reports extreme temperatures even when opening a browser or playing a video. This cause the system malfunction. It was working fine before.

Blocked/n9nworking fan? Dust inside the computer?

@waltinator no physical problems.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
