- Comment on How do I fit a network card with a physical x4 slot into an x1 slot? 1 week ago:
Pcie 2.0x1 would have a theoretical max of 4gbit/s so it would probably only handle 3.5 gigabit of connections simultaneously.
- Comment on Need help naming/finding something to stabilize two of these together at a distance of between 6"-12" apart. 1 week ago:
Why not stabilize the cabinets to the wall, like with child proofing wall anchors?

- Comment on ‘Audible enclaves’ could enable private listening without headphones. 2 weeks ago:
You’ll actually want to use metal screws, as wood screws don’t conduct the ultrasonic waves as well, since they’re not as stiff

M$: best I can do is Intel celery, but it’s new enough to run windows 11

- Comment on Why don't people going to college get HUD, Food Stamps, and free Medicare/Medicaid while enrolled? Instead of the parents footing the bill or the student working 3 jobs and school? 4 weeks ago:
Sorry, if your parents are providing for more than 50% of your expenses they get to claim you as a dependent, and you only qualify based on your parents income.
Wouldn’t apply if you’re literally orphaned, but it can be rough trying to prove your parents disowned you, if they still claim you as a dependent for the tax breaks.

- Comment on Unsubscribe 4 weeks ago:
Ah agi makes more sense, since that’s before tax but after alimony and student loan interest payments.
- Comment on Unsubscribe 4 weeks ago:
If you’re getting 250/day and making $62.5k/yr and paying taxes, you’re left with about $50k. Average rent is 1550/month in the US ($18600/yr). 30% of $50k is only $15000.
Working 8hrs a day at $31.25 per hr. (that’s 4.3 times the minimum wage) still doesn’t cover the 30% rule.

No dummy, you’re missing a decimal point. California only pays 19 CENTS per kwh.
And if conservative Texas is so great how come they pay 20% more per kwh for electricity than deep blue Washington State?
Everything’s bigger in Texas, especially the idiots & excuses.

In the early weeks of pregnancy, the amniotic fluid is mostly water that comes from your body. After about 20 weeks of pregnancy, your baby’s urine makes up most of the fluid.
Nah they’ve been soaking in piss for 4+ months.
- Comment on Shower thoughts 1 month ago:
So, piss? They’re marinating in piss? That’s what makes them smell the way they do?
