Found another windows-only issue with soundblaster PCI models the other day where the driver causes “an unstable overclock” on the cpu.
- Comment on ‘You basically have free hot water’: how Cyprus became a world leader in solar heating 1 month ago:
Having a solar heated loop for radiated heating in the floor is definitely a setup I want to get going.
- Comment on Microsoft formally deprecates the 39-year-old Windows Control Panel 2 months ago:
I e had the opposite experience with my 7800x3D. With windows, my Soundblaster card’s drivers won’t install because they will cause an “unstable overclock” while it works on the Nobara installation.
- Comment on Microsoft formally deprecates the 39-year-old Windows Control Panel 2 months ago:
I’m enjoying a dual boot with Nobara_Gnome_Nvidia. Just finished the game with my first character on Tiny Tina’s Wonderland without issue. My only gripe would be how that particular game takes a minute to optimize shaders at the initial game start. Glorious Eggroll does nice work.
- Comment on DeviantArt’s Downfall Is Devastating, Depressing, and Dumb 5 months ago:
have contributed much to the impoverishment of the French artistic genius, which is already so scarce.
- Comment on Finished my DIY keyboard with printed case, feet, and RPi Pico "caddy". Keycaps are not 3d printed, but the labels were DIY from my laser. 9 months ago:
I like the look. I’d totally use this.
I also want to call you crazy for putting another tab button on the numpad, just so you can say “they called me crazy…” after it’s wide adoption. - Comment on 'Tis an Encore-level chart threat to make through, until the last note… 9 months ago:
Brilliant. I’m trying to come up with an analogy for the “I know king fu” moment. Maybe “I know how to make custom midi libraries for my keyboards”

- Comment on xkcd #217: e to the pi Minus pi (31 Jan 2007) 9 months ago:
Thanks for the context on ACM saving me a search. I would like to add that I wouldn’t characterize it as ‘mean’ but moreso trolling them for being unaware of Gelfond’s Constant.
- Comment on xkcd #2880: Sheet Bend 10 months ago:
In my experience, the human form of “Boat Mode” means drunk. A drunk person with a wobbly mobile device sounds like sad fail tiktok content.
- Comment on Honda debuts new global EV series, Honda Zero, coming in 2026 10 months ago:
Lots of visibility with such a small front end, but it’ll make head-on collisions scarier, also, imo. Looks aerodynamic, too. I’d have no issue rocking this for my daily.

I also like the contrast of how this luxurious item is in a bare concrete cell. Looks like the armrests need to be a bit higher to comfortably reach my elbows.

The angered Danger Range Ranger felt like “stranger danger”.

- Comment on Intel's Meteor Lake CPUs are slower at single-core work than previous-gen models — new benchmarks show IPC regressions vs Raptor Lake 10 months ago:
Lifeboat/Life jacket inflation is pretty much always good. Airbags cause harm going off early.
Then for deflation, a person’s ego can be deflated for good reasons, maybe. - Comment on SR-72: US secret hypersonic jet to allegedly break sound barrier in 2025 | Believed to be a top-secret project of the US Air Force, the SR-72 is touted to reach over 4,000 mph (6,437 kph), making i... 10 months ago:
Same. “That scene” from the movie D.A.R.Y.L. is a core memory.
