I gave it about a three hours and got pretty bored, sadly. Just for me though, it was also a mood thing.

I feel like there is a significant difference between going to the DNC and going to the RNC.

For one, the DNC attendees didn’t bring jizz cups with them.

They were probably nude

Man I need to find the record I have that came with this comic.

The lead contamination were only (or at least predominantly) from Lunchables made specifically for schools, not ones that you buy from the grocery store. These are also the ones that have the increased sodium levels (on average by 300mg iirc).

The crazy part to me is that it’s specifically the Lunchables made for schools.

Really makes me feel like Sisco or Bon Appetit (industrial prison complex companies) are the ones producing the food, just like they do for prisons.

People went from paying for cable and addon channels, to having a consolidated service, to having that service split and paid for addon channels again.

Not to mention keeping track of when they pay, since they’re all different dates unless you do it on specific days all at once.

Then there’s self hosting and having everything in one spot. Phew, nothing like it.

As someone who wants to make their own game, I do not have the time to learn to code and the engine, and do my art, and do my music, and work the 3 jobs that I have.

I want the time, but I don’t have it lol. (No, I’m not using AI because of this, I just wanted to suggest that time is valuable and so each additional skill is less time for other skills)

I no longer wished to use Logitech products after using G-Hub. Most horrible software.

Did you ever apologize to Steve?

Yeah AI upscaling has been around for years, there’s phenomenal implementations of it where you legitimately can’t tell, and there’s godsawful implementations that are thrown together in a matter of 15 minutes, given one pass, and submitted.

Every piece of media I’ve upscaled (mostly animation) has been great. So far, every upscaled release I’ve seen posted has been terrible. And yes, it may only have been 2 or 3, but that makes it that much sadder because only 3 movies have been released with upscales and they wouldn’t even take the time to do it well.

It’s a shame.

Luckily steamless is piss easy to use because Steams “DRM” is only meant to be preventative. As in, you’re playing it on steam for the community, workshop, cloud saves, per game notes, control scheme setups, etc etc.

It’s just sweet and savory. A Wendy’s chocolate frosty and a fry ago well together, that’s basically just cold chocolate, kinda.

This actually looks pretty good in an unconventional way

If everyone writes a review in response to a terrible change in an update, it’s not a review bomb.

If none of these players knew about this, but started reviewing this game or a different game from the same company, it’s review bombing.

A concentrated spike in reviews =\= review bombing.

No, only slate and graphite

I feel like this would vary by shop. There’s an automotive shop with a relatively small waiting room, because they are less than a block from a ~2 mile long road of shops. Very walkable, just ever so slightly uphill. You can usually walk and find a number of stores to window shop at before heading back.

There’s another automotive shop a bit aways from my house. It’s on a mostly solitary street, a few miles away from any shops, and is not an area you would want to be walking in. They have a fairly large waiting room.

But I think they all say you’re free to to do as you please because there’s not really anything for you to do for the next 2 to 48+ hours, depending on what you’re getting done.

It’s in my garage at the moment, but from memory (it’s been a year or two now) the USB-3.0 header straight up fell off. The PCB should be fine, which is why I have a feeling that I could likely just resolder it, so long as the pads themselves on the PCB were ok.

I’ll see if I can find some time this week to dig it out and share a photo, thank you for the offer!

Yeah EVGA were my go-to. I have a 1660, 2070s, and 3080 all from them.

In fact they have been my only GPU manufacturer. I don’t know what I’ll do for the future.

Lol, yeah. The ROG line of phone has an RGB backlight with the ROG logo.

Honestly, I liked it. Could be configured to per-app notifications, and could be synced to other phones that had it. Not that I ever got to use this feature, it was returned to me BROKEN! lol

I hate ASUS. Used to be way in on them – well not way but relatively. I had the ASUS ROG Phone. The screen unfortunately broke and needed to be sent into service. More unfortunate, it was just about 1 month out of warranty.

So I get it set up to send it. ASUS charges me $300 for the phone screen replacement. It took over 8 months for them to get it back to me. When the phone finally did arrive, the RGB lighting didn’t work, the NFC didn’t work, and the screen itself had an orange hue in the upper right corner. To boot, it would only connect to AES Wi-Fi networks, so I can’t even use it without a SIM card because who the fuck uses AES. They didn’t even fucking fix it properly. I never got responses, sending e-mails for months after it was finally returned to me.

Now, in this time I was really patient. I was using a temporary phone. Around month 5, I just needed a new phone and was looking into the newly released ROG Phone 2. I figured the ROG 1 would still get plenty of usage as a spare device. Well I had the ROG 2 until AT&T decided that the phone didn’t have the supported bands anymore, so my >1 year old phone is now as effective as an iPod 3g. Just 6 months later, screen itself just died, no fall, no nothing. I can use SCRCPY to use it, the screen just doesn’t work. I really, really tried to give them a shot and the benefit of the doubt.

Now, in between these ~2 years I’d accumulated a few accessories for the phones, keycaps and backpacks. Just little things – ngl, the bag and the keycaps are still really good quality. I also decided to upgrade my PC, and was looking at a nice new motherboard to rebuild my existing PC with.

So I get the ASUS B550 or something like that. Stupidly bought it from Newegg, first time. The motherboard arrives and upon building the computer I just cannot get it to POST. I reach out to the 2 likely culprits, the PSU and the MoBo. EVGA sends me an entirely new PSU, free of charge, and tells me not to bother shipping it back. ASUS on the other hand would not accept that the motherboard could have been the point of failure! And when I FINALLY was able to fully prove that every single component in the board works EXCEPT the MoBo, they told me to take it up with where I purchased it from, Newegg. So I would get to pay some ~20% restocking fee on a broken motherboard, instead of the manufacturr just replacing a defective board. Oh, the best part? The motherboards USB-3.0 header was broken, came right off when trying to plug it in. No wonder it wouldn’t POST.

Fuck you, ASUS. Fuck your shitty warranty, your awful customer support, your horrible treatment of customers who put their trust into you. I will never support ASUS again and I will always vehemently suggest anyone else. It’s really, really simple to be a good OEM, all it takes is replacing things that break. ASUS treats every single customer like a scammer who is trying to get free stuff out of them, which IMO just goes to show that’s exactly the mindset ASUS has as well.

I still have the motherboard btw. If anyone knows how to repair a USB-3.0 header I’ll either be glad to be guided through a repair or I’ll just send it to you for cost of shipping. It’s just going to sit in my garage otherwise.
