- Comment on Is it practically impossible for a newcomer selfhost without using centralised services, and get DDOSed or hacked? 4 days ago:
DDOS against a little self hosted instance isn’t really a concern I’d have. I’d be more concerned with the scraping of private information, ransomware, password compromises, things of that nature. If you keep your edge devices on the latest security patches and you are cognizant on what you are exposing and how, you’ll be fine.

No worries, just wanted to be sure. 🙂
- Comment on Dell said return to the office or else—nearly half of workers chose “or else” 1 week ago:
For the company or the workers? For the company to die on rto mandates, fully agree.
- Comment on We can do all three things at once 1 month ago:
One of many reasons is the issue of distribution at a distance. It’s terribly inefficient to deliver power to distant locations because you get drops the further you go. Another reason would be strategic. You don’t want to have too much infrastructure centralized on a single location in case of war.

The stupid icons just bouncing like mad used to annoy the shit out of me.

Not at all. I couldn’t go for more than a couple hours on win 11 without an issue with BT. Whereas I basically don’t have issues with BT on Win 10. Maybe once every few months with a controller, but that’s just a quick re-pairing to sort.

I’ve tried Mac a few times, even had to use it in a job. I can’t make myself like the UI. It’s unintuitive and obtuse. And I can’t stand the walled garden.

Like the ads surrounding the video and breaking the video up or the spots in the video where the creator hawks their latest wares?

The way this thread is going it sure would seem that way. A little bit of menial work to earn money for an activity is hardly the same as if this kid was on his 9-5 grind just itching for his next smoke break.

Lmao the lag in that setup has to be ridiculous. Like you mentioned, tbs games and other slow games only lol

For me it’s the way he talks. Like he talks just like the smarmy British presenters and narrators that sound borderline condescending whether that’s their intention or not.

50 is perfect to me.
- Comment on Good printer for beginner 6 months ago:
I think it really depends on what part of the hobby interests you. If the tinkering and modding hardware aspect appeals to you the Creality ender is good platform to mod. Similar to it are the Voxellab Aquila’s that are built a little better but aren’t as popular. You can often make alterations to them that you would make on an Ender but you have to account for the differences in them. They are also a great way to understand what you do and do not like about the hobby without breaking the bank.
However if you are more interested in 3d modeling and just printing things out without a ton of hassle, then look at the Bambu Labs offerings or a Prusa Mk4. They are stable workhorses with more premium features and make the process much easier since they have less tinkering to do in between prints and more automation to them. They are more expensive because of this but you definitely get what you pay for with them. They are still modifiable as well if you find you want to make changes to them down the road.
- Comment on Ifixit gives fairphone 5 a 10/10 on repairability and maintanence 6 months ago:
That sucks when you are stuck in an area like that. I’ve had t-mo for about 15 years now and they’ve been great and have solid coverage everywhere I’ve been in and outside the state. Verizon really is a better option for more rural locations though generally. I had them for a little while when T-Mo didn’t have great coverage where I was. And I really dislike ATT so they were a hard pass lol
- Comment on Ifixit gives fairphone 5 a 10/10 on repairability and maintanence 6 months ago:
BT delay is such a pain in games. And honestly for me not needing fucking batteries for every damn device in my life is a highly preferred feature. Fucking hate that every device has a separate time limit that I have to keep track of.

It’s compatible with most of T-Mobile bands.
- Comment on Ifixit gives fairphone 5 a 10/10 on repairability and maintanence 6 months ago:
There are things missing from this that I want but the better sourcing and the dedication to a responsible platform makes me want to get one. I’m in the states though so I have to get a reshipper in order to get one which really sucks because it’s going to jack up the price anywhere from 40-100 euros.

There are few games that I wish I could selectively erase my memory of, this is one of them. Just so I could play it again brand new. Love that game so much
- Comment on Is it disrespectful to call someone instead of answering their email? 6 months ago:
Disrespectful, no. Annoying af on a personal level, yes. If I email, it’s because I have time for that not your stupid rambling stories, I want a paper trail, and I don’t want to deal with people in conversation. I blatantly do not answer calls at work when I am emailing someone and if they ask if they can call, I tell them no and to please use email.
I can understand them calling in your case. I wouldn’t like it, but sometimes it’s just faster to talk things out. So long as you don’t get a rambler.

I wish these idiots would quit trying to tell the people playing the game that they are wrong for not liking it. Like, no man, listen to them, this is feedback. You can’t take all of it without a pinch of salt but if you see a common theme, then you should address it.

A better option would be a discount on the electrical bill for having green tech installed. If you want to help poor families, help their month to month costs.
