- Comment on Well, That’s One Way to Sell Americans on Electric Cars. The U.S. has been wary of EVs. As the cost of gas soars, we’re now paying the price. 1 day ago:
And also don’t forget charging stations don’t exist, and vast majority of people who live in higher density housing have zero way of charging at home.

Snowpack in my areas mountains is down to like 20% of normal, aka it’s completely fucking gone in mid March. This year is gonna suck.

- Comment on some artists make songs about sex that last longer than they do during actual sex 3 days ago:
Which is fine. Nobody wants 10 straight minutes of monotonous pounding. Thats just going to make everyone sore.
Ideal ratio is about 15-30min of foreplay and edging with 5min of intercourse imo. Then cuddling after.

- Comment on Nvidia Announces DLSS 5, and it adds... An AI slop filter over your game 4 days ago:
Makes perfect sense in context.
Nvidia is no longer a gaming company. They do not care about gamers. They are actively DRIVING AWAY gamers as fast as they can, because AI chips are more lucrative than dirty smelly tiny consumer products.
This is meant to show off real-time AI generation performance, which is massively marketable to AI companies. Not consumers. Nothing is about consumers.

- Comment on The surreal joy of having an overprovisioned homelab (2025) - from Anubis creator 1 week ago:
We do, but what I mean is this is yet another way Russia will benefit from the pedo-war. Oil goes up, they become a critical supplier of helium, they’ll make shitloads of billions to try and prop their own war machine back up. One big huge giant present to Putin, one dictator to another.

- Comment on Cheapest 14x4tb NAS 1 week ago:
I’ve never ran into issues either, but generally in any situation where data integrity is somewhat important, ECC is a very good idea. Its never a problem until suddenly it is.
I don’t give a crap about my Minecraft server having ECC, but a storage server where cached data gets written to disk, I’d rather have ECC ensure nothing gets corrupted.
- Comment on Samsung's latest update is a serious gut punch to Galaxy power users 1 week ago:
wish you could just buy a fucking tv.
You can. Look for commerical displays. They typically have no smart shit and are designed to have a display box plugged in via HDMI or be served static images and nothing else. You won’t get the best tech though as they dont make commercial displays in OLED or anything.
- Comment on Cheapest 14x4tb NAS 1 week ago:
ABSOLUTELY ECC memory, 32gb or higher if you can afford it these days as TrueNAS does benefit from a decent cache space, especially with so many drives to spread data slices across.
Realistically unless you expect multiple concurrent users, any 4 core or higher CPU from 2015-on will be plenty of power to manage the array. No need for dedicated server hardware unless the price is right
I have a Dell PowerEdge t3 SOHO/small business server tower that I gutted and turned into a 5x8tb config. It only has a middling 4 core Xeon 1225v5 and I never get above 50% CPU usage when maxing the drives out. More CPU is needed if you’re doing filesystem compression or need multiple concurrent users.

- Comment on Aint never seen someone turn off their cellphone at the pump 2 weeks ago:
But you really shouldn’t, as the evaporative emissions system isn’t designed for that.
Modern vehicles use a charcoal canister to absorb gasoline vapors as they exit the tank when the car is off. They do this through a purge valve that opens only when the engine is off. When the engine is running, the purge valve closes and a second valve opens sucking gasoline vapors into the intake manifold vacuum, where they can be easily burned by the engine.By refuelling with the engine on this purge valve is closed and you risk ejecting a stream of extra gasoline into the engine (depending on the quality of the evap system and whether it can detect tank pressure changes to open the purge valve). Have had this happen on older cars where the engine wouldn’t run after refuelling because the manifold valve wouldn’t close and it just filled the intake with liquid gas, flooding out the engine.
- Comment on NVIDIA could enter the desktop CPU market with performance equal to AMD and Intel 2 weeks ago:
Both that and vertical integration. They can capture even more of the market by creating all in one Nvidia-only machines that you have to buy the whole rig to use their accelerators

Everyone’s nomenclature sucks after 2016. Model numbers don’t mean anything lol
- Comment on CPU scam: Chuwi CoreBook X uses AMD Ryzen 5 5500U instead of 7430U 2 weeks ago:
That’s my bad for not remembering AMD’s fucking atrocious nonstandard mobile chip naming schemes.
That said, I went and looked up both models, they are both listed as using the FP6 interface. So they are electrically and mechanically compatible, likely just needing a bios update, my point is still valid.
- Comment on CPU scam: Chuwi CoreBook X uses AMD Ryzen 5 5500U instead of 7430U 2 weeks ago:
Yes all these processors coming from the same generation will use the same socket/BGA pattern and similar BIOS firmware.
