Pc parts picker says my computer would be $2835. I paid $1950 just over a year ago at microcenter. That’s with a slightly “lower” video card since the one I bought isn’t even available anymore.

I’ve been told I don’t hate dogs, because I treat them kindly but mostly try to ignore them. I find dogs incredibly annoying, but it’s not their fault and there is no reason they should suffer for my opinions.

I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, “no. get out.” Anyway, I asked what that was about and the bartender was like, “you didn’t see his vest but it was all nazi shit. Iron crosses and stuff. You get to recognize them.” And i was like, oh ok and he continues. “And then THEY bring friends and the friends bring friends and they stop being cool and then you realize, oh shit, this is a Nazi bar now. And it’s too late because they’re entrenched and if you try to kick them out, they cause a PROBLEM. So you have to shut them down.”

You ever tried farming not high? It’s boring as shit.

Does it count if I own a typewriter, even though I’ve never used it?

I had dabbled with Linux and BSDs in the late 90s to early 2000s. I was using Win2k on main computer, fully updated with antivirus software when I started getting popups in Internet Explorer, and I never even used IE. My internet was slow so I went to a book store and bought a SuSE book with CDs.

Lost Odyssey is playable on Xenia, but unfortunately it still requires some work arounds. It would be nice to just play the game.

Have you seen the price of RAM lately? You gotta do something to make sure you’re getting your moneys worth.

Don’t worry, your RAM will die long before you do.

At first I thought this was a Gorillaz calendar, then, unfortunately, I remembered nfts. Why did you have to remind me?

I’m sure that’s very comforting to the people who just wanted to get in their car and go to work.

Opensuse tumbleweed. It’s solid, stays up to date because it’s a rolling release, and Yast can be a life saver for new users.

I was using windows 2000 and suddenly got dozens of popups in internet explorer. I didn’t even use internet explorer, I used Netscape for all of my web browsing. I had dabbled a little with BSD and Linux so I just took the plunge. My local bookstore had a SuSE book with CDs so I bought it and never looked back. I’ve distro hoped a few times but keep going back to Suse.

Why wouldn’t we let them in too drain the Chinese economy then. We would “win” in the short term by getting vehicles with fewer emissions while siphoning money out of the Chinese economy. Later when they could no longer afford to offer the vehicles at such a low price another company would step in with a superior product. At least that’s what I’ve been taught about how capitalism works. Was that all a lie?

Not buying a Samsung fridge will kill it even quicker.

It’s an idea that’s been played with a few times, but there are many energy loss points in such a system, as well as logistics for keeping the “stack” from falling over. The best so far is pumping water up to an artificial lake, but that’s still not very efficient.

Yes grandma, it’s soft.
