You know who else didn't have a great social media bio? Jesus.

Datacenters have started charging premiums for hosting those Intel CPUs as they have been so much extra work. Total shit-show for such a large company to screw up like that, and still not have fixed it.

Datercenter provider: "Something isn't right with the 13900k and 14900k. We already replaced a lot of customer's CPUs and the issues don't seem fully resolved. We've been steering customers toward 7950x systems instead. They're almost always faster anyway." Kicking them when they're down, man.

Maybe it's already decided Biden will step down, and all the op-eds are just to get everyone used to the idea, not to make it happen. Although, who knows with the MSM. If one person at one outlet does a squeaky fart, a moment later someone at every other outlet lets out an *identical* squeaky fart.

Haha, in SG-1 they say "G.D.O." a lot as a term for the radio transmitters they carry that identify them when they're returning. It's never said in the show but on the DVD commentary they confirm it stands for "garage door opener".

"A study published in 2005 found that cats have the ability to understand human pointing" Bull. Shit. I trust everyone involved in that study was kicked out of university.

People need to learn that Google Drive is a complete abomination in terms of both design and implementation, and nothing good will ever come out of the team that made it. (As in using it as a filesystem, not the basic "website you can share large files on if you have no taste or decency".)

I like how they're trying to position cloud gaming as an elite feature, rather than a total crock no one wants to use let alone pay for (outside of maybe point & click adventures).

It makes the grid here look good. It's the kind of shit a functioning government would have intervened in a long time ago to stop this even happening. (Same with the constant problems in California.)

This is so I can put a mini PC + webcam in the window to see when deliveries are about to arrive outside, replacing the old Raspberry Pi / OctoPrint server I used to use for the same thing, which I am never using again because fuck that broken shit of a worthless platform with botched Wifi and USB.

Trying to find the best software to use to stream a webcam from one Windows PC to another (and, ideally, also to an iPhone). Seems more complex than it should be, or involving random tools I've never heard of. :( My brain isn't up to this today. I need more sleep, and snacks. I have snacks now.

That amount of money doesn’t make sense to me. Games last longer than a month for me. I’d end up paying more for the subscription than if I bought every game I played normally.

Project 2025 mandates that the Trump administration break up NOAA, as it "seems designed around the fatal conceit of planning for the unplannable" and is "one of the main drivers of the climate change alarm industry" Nobody tell them that NOAA tracks hurricanes and makes sure millions aren't killed

It'd be like saying "books are typically 4 page pamphlets." IDK, maybe there are so many tiny videos for social media etc. that a lot really are 100MB (although those tend to be even smaller!) but when I think of an MP4 h264 file I think of stuff that's usually 1 GB to 80 GB.

People who post unedited, hour or longer discussions about various topics, and don't have the basic human decency to timestamp the different topics, should be kicked out of not only YouTube but existence itself. So utterly sick of people who think their time is worth more than their audience.

Yes :( I guess they have more parts and magnets on top of being more niche, but damn it is expensive. Very nice, though!

The Windows lock screen is a reminder of where we came from. Our heritage. Of when PCs used HDDs for their swap file, and far too much of it, coming to a complete standstill if a little too much was going on. Only still allowing the mouse to move because of deep hacks presenting an utter facade.

It is kinda funny that Windows reminds you it is written by incompetent, wannabe members of an Apple-worshipping cargo cult every single time you boot a machine, before you've even managed to log into it.

As remains the case today. It typically scrolls the text up a huge amount on the first frame it manages to render and then completely freezes for about 5 seconds before suddenly showing the password prompt. It's a joke. This OS is a joke. Better to not have any animated effect than have one so bad

Making the Windows lock screen animated was one of the most ambitious things Microsoft have ever done. At the time, the idea that Windows, even on high-end hardware, could possibly be ready in time, just after reboot, to smoothly scroll some text up a background that becomes blurry was unfathomable
