This is the type of pedantry that annoys me and yet I admire. Bravo, good fellow, I salute you

I can’t remember if the show did it, but in The Expanse books poly relationships were part of Belter life, especially on smaller ships

I understand hating on Ohio. It’s mostly flat and pretty much flyover country.
On the other hand, Ohio is a perfectly cromulent place to live. It’s an even better place to be from

tl;dr: the gaming company that said it would make a Star Wars game a few years ago leaked some rough images of basic character designs. that’s it, that’s all I got out of the article.
Also, to OP, thanks for posting this. Even though the article is stale I didn’t know the game or studio existed until reading it

Eeehhh, I don’t think worse is the right word. Less fidelity, yeah, but the sound is… warmer? I dunno, like I said, I’m not an audiophile, but I know our ears are analogue and all the things in nature that make me feel good have curves
Your mom, for instance
- Comment on Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE 1 month ago:
I’m no audiophile, but there is a difference in sound. To me it’s not enough to invest in the type of equipment that maximizes that difference, but it’s still there
Plus turntables have become another niche technological LEGO set, to customize and improve until the hole in your chest is filled
- Comment on Automatically Crack Safes With This Autodialer 1 month ago:
So i don’t know which lock you had, the comment I made above describes most of the consumer dial safe locks out there, but not all.
Yours may have been like what I mentioned, and the last number was 90 or something so people would dial it correctly, or it may have been a different design with drop gates where you dial all the numbers and stop on the last number. It may have been a start CW instead of CCW, there’s a few different designs.
Spinning it lots of times at the beginning never hurts, it clears the wheel packs. Thanks for having a sense of humor btw lol
Anyway, yeah, they can be overly complicated and a business should have a keypad safe and good insurance. The tech or manager or whoever that showed you how to unlock the safe was a dick for sure
- Comment on Automatically Crack Safes With This Autodialer 1 month ago:
They can take hours to dial every combination of an S&G lock. Cheaper locks are quicker. Most Sentry “safe” dials can be manipulated in minutes if you know what you’re doing, no dialer needed
These tools are also pretty expensive and difficult to source if you’re not in the industry
- Comment on Automatically Crack Safes With This Autodialer 1 month ago:
Turn the dial counterclockwise past your first number three times, stopping on it the fourth time. Dial clockwise to the second number three times, dial counterclockwise to the third number twice, turn the dial clockwise until you feel the bolt retract. The latch will engage at about 0 and the dial will turn no farther than 85, probably it will stop at 90. Turn the lock lever to open the door
Spent hours on that stupid safe.
Skill issue

Hmmm, i use a Synology NAS with Jellyfin installed and my family can use their Roku TVs without issue. I didn’t realize Synology made a difference there
- Comment on Self-hosted media server to share with 5+ people? 1 month ago:
Top comment, really. Comprehensive and accurate
+1 for Jellyfin, all the features of Plex (that matter to me), none of the subscription costs.
I installed Jellyfin on my parent’s and sibling’s TVs and use direct play. I don’t get anything above 1080, lowest common denominator and all that. I set up kid’s shows and movies in separate folders and set up an account for my nieces and nephews, so my siblings can let them watch shows unmonitored without worrying what they’ll find. (I don’t trust the show ratings to work correctly) Meanwhile we can watch stuff like The Bear without the kids learning all of the Swears
Also i picked up a 16TB hdd for $250 a couple years ago so there’s that

Joshua Dean had a memory keen
He was strong and he ran every day
But his lungs turned to goo And he had a stroke too
At 46, he was sent on his way
Oh, and Swampy Barnett loved his mama
And he took a lot of pride in his work
He found 300 reasons why a plane couldn’t fly
And now he’s over his head in the dirt
You can know a lot
You can know a little
But whatever you know
Just don’t blow the whistle

- Comment on Our brains remembers at random cringe and awful things we did in the past to prevent us of doing them again. 3 months ago:
I’ve found a lot of success in working through things logically when the painful memories return.
What does this memory teach me?
Have I learned all I can from this memory?
If it has taught me everything it can, I can set this memory aside, as there is no purpose in dwelling on it.
I am a better person because of the lessons learned, thank you memory, you have served me well. You may rest
This puts me in a position of acknowledging my imperfections without suffering long term regret. I can’t change the past, and if I’ve learned from it, then I need to live in the Now, not the Then
