How can someone so “filled with the light of god” look so darn angry all the time?

You want a space heater try an AMD K6-2, First pc I ever had to get an aftermarket heat-sink for cause it would shut down in the summer for overheating. Normal operating temp was like 80C

I think I’ll try using OBS to capture a video tonight, granted its quality will be tied to the output but it requires no additional hardware. Then edit in DaVinci to get rid of the obvious mistakes i’ll make. I only have a 4070 ti super tho
- Comment on Prime Video subs will soon see ads for Amazon products when they hit pause 1 month ago:
The usual reason given is convenience “I can get it all in 1 place, instead of driving/bussing around town looking for the local option”. I am looking for a usb mic with a short wire to attach to my vr headset so I can stop killing peoples ears with hard P and similar. My local computer store doesn’t carry any mics like I need only the desktop professional ones, nor any nearby local stores either. My only real option is to either go to Best Buy or Bozo. sigh
- Comment on Prime Video subs will soon see ads for Amazon products when they hit pause 1 month ago:
I’ve been screaming this into the void for years and always get shot down. It’s almost like people like to be abused. I saw how bozo destroyed business after business in the early years and have been avoiding it fairly well, I will go without my special not necessary “toy” until I find it local, which is getting harder and harder sadly as the convenience is killing local business

That is why most of us dropped cable, $80+ for 10 mins of ads in a “30” min show

I know what I am checking out tonight
- Comment on YouTube’s ad blocker crackdown now includes third-party apps 2 months ago:
Hmm, I only use chrome for my YT chan control, not watching. Watching ANYTHING is done on FF+UBO, but if adnaseum is on FF I may switch. Poor google has YET to show an ad I would be interested in, hell the tv in the 80s showed me more of interest than ads today. Thanks for the suggestion,will check it out!
- Comment on YouTube’s ad blocker crackdown now includes third-party apps 2 months ago:
Exactly, I don’t overly mind the “paid advertisements” the creators do, the guys I watch that do this are extremely funny in how they do it so if I don’t manually skip I get a good laugh, like the “Adstronaut”

What kind of foolish optimist are you? Search engines are to make profit, not help you find that obscure answer to your urgent question
- Comment on YouTube’s ad blocker crackdown now includes third-party apps 2 months ago:
Sooner or later, ad blockers should just simulate the ad being played (in the background) with the real content going in the foreground to act as if the ad was watched.
I wish adblockers did this, open the ad in a little silenced sandbox window. I don’t see the ad, creator gets their pay

- Comment on How does the day-to-day work of not wearing shoes in the house? 2 months ago:
I had a rule at my house, If you want to wear your shoes inside, lick the sole from heel to toe and I will grant you can wear them. no one ever took me up on it
- Comment on How does the day-to-day work of not wearing shoes in the house? 2 months ago:
Exactly. I have my outside winter boots (simply called winter boots), outside shoes (simply called shoes), and a dead pair (last outdoor pair) at the back door to take out the garbage. Rest of the time I and the others in the house are barefoot or in slippers
