Oh I ain’t dead, I’m just real depressed
If i knew of any execs near where i live they would be getting a front row seat to my reenactment of the Office Space printer scene.
It’s rare for me to viscerally hate someone just for existing, but if i met an HP exec I would have to exert quite a bit of self control to not beat them until I lost feeling in my hands
Hard disagree. I’m using g board, from Alphabet, which is about as concerned with privacy as a nudist exhibitionist with a shame kink. That is to say, privacy as a concept exists yes, but only to be perverted.
The only comfort is that I’m not the only one with random capitalization in my texts
All right, I’ll take a shot at it. What the hell, it works on Star Trek.
Huh, TIL. For some reason I had 1978 in my head as the publication date for Neuromancer. I was way off lol
ETA: also, holy resurrected thread Batman!
Jokes on you, i don’t own a house, can’t have a pet in my apartment, and my knees are already bad.
I love this timeline
Thank you! This was actually my first attempt at free form poetry, it just kind of flowed out of me. It only took till middle age for inspiration to strike lol
We are commodities
We exist to be bought and sold
By the ruling class
I have been bought and sold
Many many times
But only my thoughts
And identity
And words
And face
So that’s okay
I’ll just scroll other stolen thoughts
On a phone built by an eight year old
Who was bought
And sold
Half a world away
One of two things will happen.
The show runners will stay true to the source material and a bunch of people will complain that it isn’t original and Cyberpunk 2077/Bladerunner/[insert franchise here] did it first. Completely unaware that Neuromancer did it first.
Or
The show runners will use Neuromancer as “inspiration” and write their own story, to better (Foundation) or worse (Ring of Power) results. Either way, fans of the original work will complain that the show isn’t faithful to the source.
tl;dr: No matter what they do, someone will be vocally upset
NGL hating in heat pumps is like hating on EVs because they need charged longer than it takes to fill up a tank of gas. Yes the use case is not exactly 1:1 to the existing system, but it’s an improvement for energy use and emissions overall. (Not saying you’re hating on heat pumps, just a general observation)
By 2040, these states—California, Colorado, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, and Rhode Island—are aiming for 90 percent of those shipments to be heat pumps.
The coalition’s announcement comes just months after the federal government doubled down on its own commitment to heat pumps, announcing $169 million in funding for the domestic production of the systems.
These are the states, and the article doesn’t seem to go into detail on what the actual programs are in each state. However, i only skimmed the article
Yarr, it surely be
I understood some of those words lol
I was toying with the idea of a home made server using an existing case and a mini atx, but then i ran across a 16TB NAS HDD for like $240 at microcenter and just decided to go the simple route, picked up a two bay Synology case and the rest is history
First off, I’m by no means even close to an expert. More of a spurt, in fact.
I tried Plex but wanted to give remote access at varying levels, which, to my understanding, requires paying for a subscription to Plex Premium or some such. Basically I wanted to be able to see my sexy home videos from anywhere, let my parents see my wedding videos and their granddaughter’s dance recital, and let my niece see her dance recital only (to painfully stretch a metaphor).
Jellyfin has it’s limits. It’s easier for my needs in part because my family has Roku, and there is a built-in app for Jellyfin on Roku devices. I have a Samsung TV and haven’t taught myself how to sideload Jellyfin into my TV. The app works great tho, so I can watch things on my phone or laptop with ease while on vacation. I probably spent a few hours teaching myself about port forwarding, VPNs, and such. I bought a Synology NAS, which simplified things quite a bit.
Anyway, I’m not at all familiar with Apple products. Nothing wrong with them, mind, I just never liked the walled garden ethos
It’s not a waste, it’s an investment lol
Oddly enough, the price hikes earlier last year were enough to move me to spend four times as much as an annual subscription for a NAS and 16TB of storage. I made digital backups of my media and set up my parents and sister’s family with Jellyfin accounts to access my media as needed. Now they can watch videos of our wedding and my niece’s dance recital from the comfort of their living rooms. All without worrying about arbitrary changes to TOS. And I’m learning about all kinds of horrible children’s shows. OTOH my niece and nephew are learning about cool things like Batman: The Animated Series and Tiny Toons.
I’ve only run into a couple small issues when it came to backing up my media, but I’ll get them sorted.
So do they provide the screwdriver and USB cable for the ignition, or do I have to provide my own?
It is indeed a Point of Sale, albeit a shitty one
I’ve found Grayjay helps me hate YouTube less
