The reality is a bunch of people used heaps of slop to generafe profit across the internet via ad revenue, account selling, service selling etc

At the same time a bunch of companies like Google, Reddit and Facebook laxed their measures on containing bots and bot farms because they had vested interests in half of the shit floating around and now the internet has become a turd ouroborous.

Fuck off Andy.

Gotta keep the bubble going somehow

It still has its problems but is loads better than what it used to be, less issues with swapping the GPU for intensive applications

Have an i7+4060 laptop, main issue I faced was the thermal throttling because these components get hot fast. NVIDIAs poor drivers really limit your ability to underclock and Intels load line calibration was all over the place for the cpu series.

Make sure you can get the fan controllers working properly, I had to implement the EC firmware for my laptop to get it running properly - something worth checking before buying

Onimusha for me, or maybe dark cloud if that counts.

That’s cool, did you use ‘knew’ as in before she flew out a windscreen?

Wearable HUD glasses were something I was so keen to finally get in the tech roadmap for the last 20 years.

Now the tech is utterly fucking ruined because a bunch of billionaire parasites have to keep their grubby fingers on everyones data for their shitty enterprises

Bold of you to assume it’s going to stop after I die, fully expect to be reanimated and used as cheap labour at this rate.

Personally I’d just boot into a live environment so the SSD isn’t in use, backup important things, then wipe windows partitions and resize /home to use the rest of the space on the disk

I am sorry that using a computer falls beyond your comprehension.

You should endeavour to be better, dim one.

Me too, but I’m really feeling burritos hey.

Akshully, Cajun Holy Trinity is onion, peppers and celery

Mirepoix and Sofrito is carrots, onions and celery

If there’s internal file names why the fuck can’t I rename a file while it’s open in a program?

This operating system is garbage from a design perspective let alone its implementation

This does actually help, if you still have bad sections you can reserve them in GRUB or Badblocks(?) on windows iirc

I mean not actually blowing on the ram but taking it out, cleaning contacts with isopropyl and reseating it has fix memory errors for me in the past.

Oh wow I didn’t know you were serious, that’s kinda cool I like it. I usually boil the kettle at home and pour it into a pot on the stove to poach my eggs quickly

Poached eggs can be a nightmare, you’ve got this giant pot of vinegary water you’re always scrapping scum out of, if someone bombs it with too many at once it just fucks the temperature and the eggs emulsify in the water like someone splooged in the bath, gotta get a new pot on asap which takes up another burner that could be used for other shit

You’re generally using shitty eggs because of costs so the rate of failure in terms of them looking/being bad is 1/3, you have to crack an extra egg everytime otherwise the whole dish mistimes and fucks up. Great if you’re on a bulk though

Then youve gotta stir the pot in a calm and pretty level manner before cracking the eggs in, which is hard to do amongst all the chaos. Something about calmly stirring a pot of vinegar cum water in that environ does challenge your inner resolve.

Context: he’s talking about a female olympic weightlifter struggling to do an overhead press before comparing them to a transitioned competitor

I didn’t want to watch anymore of this shitstain than I had to

More of a filter coffee and eggs kinda guy but I dig it.

I went back to a desk job recently and I’m not used to how cordial and polite everyone is.

I kinda miss it, maybe I have a masochist side I don’t know about.

Generally older eggs work better for hard boiling because the gaseous membrane will expand and give you a better purchase/seperation when peeling

A small amount of lemon juice like a slice of lemon will help soften the shells to make it easier.

The perfect boiled egg takes roughly 9 minutes submerged in boiling water

I peel my eggs by cracking them on the air pocket then peeling the rest of the shell off using my thumb (not the nail) under running cold water.

You learn to get good at peeling eggs when you have another grown man threatening to stab you to death if you don’t do it fast enough.
