As a disabled dude that gets a quarter of that, 40k is fucking baller money

I’m in a pretty bad way, unfortunately. Stroke ‘survivor’ at 21, with more-or-less the right side of my body as deadweight :(. I wasn’t in very good condition before but since, I’m a burden to everyone around me.

This, + my health is awful (so I’m not going to subject another being to a rerun of my suffering), and 💕 boys 💕

It’s like Jim, our mechanic, but quantumized.

That’s one expensive transition

I have a filter that checks for “Fwd:” and immediately trashes it. If you cant be bothered to format even the subject line, you’re a lost cause. Cut down significantly on useless shit from my parents especially.

I have like 150 other filters that sort messages into folders, trash others, and immediately permanently delete others. My inbox now has 1-5 messages in the morning, and usually 1 or 2 throughout the day, vs the like 25-50 daily. Having unique email addresses for each recipient is great too, since if you unsubscibe from some garbage and it doesn’t actually unsubscibe (fuck you, AT&T Business), you can just blackhole it and it’s gone.

I prefer email to texting or calling, since there’s less expectation of a rapid response, but I got tired of getting so much garbage all the time - and I was already actively trying to keep my inbox clean 15+ years ago.

A moment of silence for the fallen 😔

Yeah, I tell my friends to use pcpp for drafting builds, although the component list is not great for older stuff, or for server gear (I just rebuilt a server, and while they claim to list Supermicro boards, mine and variants didn’t show up, while it is a standard micro atx). So trying to research what to build around, say a mobo and cpu that you grabbed from a thrift shop, can be hard if you don’t know what specs and compatability to look for. For new typical builds though, it takes a lot of the confusion and worry out of it for new builders.

A few years ago now, I used pcpp to draft a friend’s first pc, get funding for the project, and then helped the friend + father from box to boot (and way beyond, but) over a video call, and the most either had done before was replace a gpu. Booted first try, too.

Legos! :D

Same :p

Hello 😏

But it was available. Just internally.

Browsing the internet directly from a router/gateway? Get a load of Hackerman over here

As I’ve told others, ‘it’s like really expensive legos’. Cpu go in cpu hole. Ram go in ram hole. Nvme go in nvme hole. Success!

A weapon of love, baby 😘

Microsoft, monday morning: “how the fuck do we buy Linux?”

Being a scalper on the internet? It’s more likely than you think

I’ve heard it requires a DLL to disable steams basic drm, and it’s been that way for 20+ years.

But I need a return on my investment now! Short term profits! Short term profits! SHORT TERM PROFITS!

…yes?
