Still a ton of devices with no c port. Even if op went that route they’d likely have to keep an adapter around too. I recently picked up a hybrid A/C drive. Using the C port side always feels like it’s gonna just snap off lol.

Idk, worst I get is about 5 seconds of silence

I still use it, often. And no ads either with wireguard going to my pi-hole.

Ive been tempted to setup a Honeypot like this lol

True horrors

Like, that’s what vpns and jump boxes are for at the very least.

I could, but it’s been 9 months at this point. And after looking the game up before I tried redeeming, the game (at the time) looked Meh at best.

Funny, my GPU came with a code for the Avatar game (AMD) - but to redeem it, you have to run some utility from AMD that I couldn’t get to work to detect my card to redeem the game =\

Maybe, if the system taught more of HOW to think and not WHAT. Basically more critical thinking/deduction.

This same kinda topic came up back when I was in middle/highschool when search engines became wide spread.

However, LLM’s shouldn’t be trusted for factual anything, same as Joe blows blog on some random subject. Did they forget to teach cross referencing too? I’m sounding too bitter and old so I’ll stop.

It’s not so much the thermometer temp here in Louisiana. It’s the 80-99% humidity. At these levels your body’s main heat defense: Sweat - no longer works as it can’t evaporate fast enough or at all. Then it becomes an insulator and a feedback loop of hell. Like being wrapped up in a wet electric blanket.

I can remember a few summers in the desert where it would reach 130’s. And as a kid back in the early 90’s, we had the hole in the ozone too. No joke we had ozone warnings, and no outside recess cuz of it.

Plenty of summer nights were the temp never dropped below ~100f

Strangely, we often got winter temps below freezing.

Lucky! I’ve seen 150 here in Louisiana.

And even higher when I lived in the Mojave desert. Like, if you didn’t leave a window cracked there’s a real chance your windshield cracks.

Built a new rig last Xmas. Got a 7800xt sapphire. It just works. Cyberpunk on ultra 100+ fps (no rt, only turn it on for screenshots basic).

Eh, just grab one from Walmart or office depot. At about 5$ it’s effectively disposable. A mouse pad is something I have a hard time dropping more than 10 on. They all end up stained, corner bending etc.

Magnets, yes. Great for the fridge!

I can actually imagine a scenario where MS actually wants that to happen. They don’t really make money on windows sales anymore (comparatively to their other products). So this could free up quite a lot of resources and reallocate them elsewhere.

The majority of home consumers basically just use browser services anyways.

Setup a pihole and Wireguard. No more ads (outside of YouTube)
