The best NC setup, is uninstalling NC. Seriously, I spent a month getting that monstrosity to work and not bitch about configurations OUT OF THE BOX that it does NOT HAVE A UI FOR just to find out that half of the ‘apps’ are half-baked buggy messes and the other are out of date, half-baked buggy messes. A to-do system without repeating item availability was the last one I learned about before salting the earth of that hopeless project.

Actually got me pissed off, thinking about it again. Jesus.

Right now I’m using a synology nas and its 1st party programs, but trying to break away to a more foss-friendly environment. Drive, Contacts, Calendar/Tasks, just work and don’t require any fiddling so until a worthy opponent shows up, I’m kinda stuck.

“we created the problem of soldered-on ram! now we have the solution: a new standard, for no fucking reason!” -every memory, board, and system company

“they did it to save power!!! 111 one eleven”

there was perfectly fine memory that was upgradable before. They (system integrators/oems) saw it as a way to kill the upgrade market, boosting profits.

No, not at the cost of locking in customer choice and flexibility. I have soldered-on ram in my ThinkPad, but not in my Predator gaming laptop. There is a -157% chance that Lenovo was trying to extract a few percent of extra speed so that I can open Firefox 0.13 seconds faster. Perhaps they’d try to cry “but battery life!”, in which case I’d respond with “well it’s not fucking working” as that machine barely gets 2.5h on a brand-new battery, browsing the web + terminal windows doing server admin stuff. (ThinkPad X13 Gen 2, Intel, with WWAN if you’re curious. Fucking 1.5k and it’s just passable for basic usage on the go.)

I’m not really upset with this ‘new’ standard, but the fact that oems are absolutely going to use it as bullshit marketing “look, we fixed the problem! get our un-fucked ram for only $129 per stick!”. That’s what the fuck I’m pissed off about.

Big biz: “we like money”

Big biz: “actually we need it, so bad, we are going into withdrawals, Steve only bought 3 yachts this week and he’s about to go ape shit, we need it, WE NEED ITTTTTTTTTTTTT

Also because of this, they are only pumping cash into big titles that are good bets for return, so nobody wants to spend money on a gamble. We need to let the big studios burn and collapse, they are way beyond their expiration date and only a few haven’t gone bad. Let the shareholders burn too, they are the driving force behind most of this shit.

E: also you can only ‘innovate’ the wheel so much. New games become an obvious cash cow. I’d have to go back a decade+ for Battlefield, Call of Duty, Need for Speed, etc to see an actual change in the game, not just new assets and skins in a new place that looks like the old place but ‘we swear it’s different’

This image is from either Forza Horizon 4 or 5 (E: maybe Motorsport too?); I have seen most of these vinyls. Oddly missing is the bd logo though…

It’s amusing watching people have a meltdown when they see furs, but especially so in video games, so I love to egg them on and people who go to these levels with their cars are great. I have a few cars that have a couple stickers, but most see my profile picture first anyway. Show the world how small your penis is as you write a novel about how it’s weird that I have a knotted canine cock, when it was you who started the conversation. A touch of projection and jealousy, methinks. It’s okay, they’ll all come to terms with themselves soon enough.

Same. It’s still on my bucket list to at least try, but I don’t understand the appeal. But we shall see, ‘don’t knock it till you try it’ and all that.

Now foreskin on the other hand, especially plentiful enough to still cover the head when fully hard… 😳

buys it

just games on it

region-wide blackouts all the time now

“they really should fix that”

So like, the 0 that use that implementation. Like really, IPsec? No openvpn support? No wireguard support? What is this, 2004?

It’s okay sweetie, you’ll grow up some day :)

If a park sunbather gets eaten by a mower, did it really happen?

Cordless… phone…?

Haha you’re old! (and so am I but never mind that)

I too create my own furniture out of mostly-empty pizza boxes

(kinda-related story time: I used to live in an apartment with 4 other gay furries [the sitcom writes itself] and we very often ordered in from dominos. Like so much so our delivery guy seemed to take a genuine interest in how we are doing. But after I spent a day making the kitchen spotless, and the next day it looked as awful as before I touched it, I stopped giving a shit. Of many factors, it was silently decided that the one taking out the trash was the one who lost the game of jenga with the garbage. So skill and precision were needed whenever you were adding to the stack that was as high as an adult (or more), as the actual garbage bin for the apartment complex was like 500 feet away and 4 stories below us. Multiple trips were necessary, even if you bothered to use trash bags to simplify the excursion. I wish I’d have taken photos, this was a challenge where boys became men.)

A third testicle is sexy, okay? Though maybe not on the head…

Yeah reading the Wikipedia article, the drop is unfortunate but the screwdriver bit, what a fucking moron. And he regularly did this while others observed, like fuck me if you’re going to be a dumbass, be a dumbass by yourself, dumbass.

Tello, 100 minutes talk/unl text/a gig of data, $6. Uses the tmo network. You can also port your number to Google voice for a $20 one-time fee and have unlimited voice/msgs, as long as you have wifi service. Uses the Voice app.

Tello is my second number, few years now, had no issues. Used to have GV back when I had no money as a teenager, and would use my tablet as a phone. Worked surprisingly well.
