cm0002,

It’s currently the strongest acid in the world, capable of dissolving almost anything including bones, flesh and ofc hair

I’m gonna say no lmao, shame though because I’m also tired of shaving lmfao

cm0002,

Yea kinda annoying, but the most irritating for me was karma counts all over the place because of “algorithms”

cm0002,

You can have a lot of accounts open lol there’s no need to close your current CU account for the most part. Some banks/CUs do have minimum balances or a monthly fee if below that but lots don’t, just double check the terms for yours

I personally have savings accounts (And sometimes checking too) at like 3 CUs and a handful of banks lmao

cm0002,

Guys hear me out, I think the timeline we’re in rn is the mirror timeline :(

cm0002,

Right, the worst that can happen is a DDoS, you can take down a residential connection really easily. Those little consumer grade routers cannot handle much lmao

cm0002,

Illegal gold miners: “Hey boss got the mine setup, should I do some camouflage?”

“Nah, just throw up some tin roofs and call it a day”

Lmao

cm0002,

Linux: “This incident will be reported”

cm0002,

The LD characters are much more like “real” people than the other Trek series to me.

This is why I like it, it’s closer to how I expect “real” humans to act even 400 years in the future.

The other treks are more idealized, heroized, professional.

cm0002,

Unfortunately no, game pass games are packaged and installed similarly to Windows Store apps and games and heavily relies on Windows Store APIs. Proton nor wine will likely be able to replicate it for a long time (if ever)

You only have 3 options

A dedicated machine with Windows for gaming

A Windows VM with GPU passthrough (Some games’ anti-cheat systems will trigger if it detects a VM, there are ways to harden a VM against it, but it’s tedious and another cat and mouse game.)

Dual boot Windows and Linux

cm0002,

I miss the Cheese and Bacon spread…and the Cheese & Jalapenos spread

cm0002,

It’s not 1999 anymore, 4MB is nothing and a very common size for a decent quality image file

cm0002,

Web dev today is a bunch of crap.

Always has been

cm0002,

Ohhhhh, I thought it was about Godot, the C# game engine

cm0002,

Apart from taxi drivers.

Man, fuck taxis. Uber/Lyft have their issues, but I will NEVER go back to taxis even if Uber/Lyft becomes more expensive than a taxi.

cm0002,

I’ll happily jump ship when a better alternative is available, traditional taxis are not a better alternative. I’ll happily vote to implement any regulations covering them, even if it means that an Uber ride gets more expensive. Like I said, I’ll continue taking Uber/Lyft even if they end up being more expensive than a taxi especially if it’s that cost to pay the drivers a proper wage

Uber drivers don’t regularly leave me waiting for hours with the promise of being “Just 10 minutes away”

Uber drivers can’t go “This guy isn’t local, so I’m going to go the longest way possible to rack up charges”

Uber doesn’t leave me guessing where the car is with my only way to find out is to call dispatch (Who will constantly tell you a car is on the way “just a couple minutes”)

Uber drivers don’t just stop 2 or 3 blocks away and expect me to walk

Uber cars have been far cleaner and better maintained than the best taxi I’ve been in

I’ve felt far more unsafe and uncomfortable in a taxi than any Uber ride I’ve been in

cm0002,

…how? The things I listed are all things various taxi services have done to me, many times in various combinations. Out of all the taxi experiences I’ve had I think like 2 were decent

especially if you flag them down in person.

This tells me you’re in a major city like NYC where there is actually decent taxi competition and this is the norm. Short of being in a major city, you’re likely being serviced by 1 or 2 taxi companies and they give no shits, because they’re the only game in town (Until Uber/Lyft comes to town anyways).

Taxis are usually cheaper now

Too little too late, they’ve burned me way too many times, you couldn’t pay me to take a taxi again

cm0002,

Shaxs won’t stand for anything getting in the way of his dreams, he will run down there and shove the warp core out with his bare hands lmao

cm0002,

Its going to be even taller! Lmao, finally we can have smartphone-sword battles lol

cm0002,

Yea but it’s physical media, I haven’t had a DVD/Blu-ray player in a LONG time lmao

I’ll just stick to the high seas lolol

cm0002,

Yea fr, who tf would’ve guessed the fucking music industry of all the entertainment industries would be the ones to get streaming right lmfao

cm0002,

Probably because it’s going to be something boring, like social engineering to get credentials, maybe a disgruntled employee or idiotic security configuration.

cm0002,

Does nobody who says this remember their days in highschool?

Let’s say a bedtime of 9

School gets out at 3

Allot about 2 hours for homework, it’s now 5

Allot an hour for dinner, it’s 6

Congratulations! A kid has a whopping 3 hours of free time per weekday to enjoy the last few years of childhood. These are even relatively conservative numbers, HW could easily stretch into 3-4+ hours with an AP class or a particularly HW heavy teacher leaving a whole hour of free time! How wonderful.

Oops wait, a strict parent(s) now adds an additional hour for household chores, ah well so much for free time.

cm0002,

them since they really can’t affect when their school starts.

Don’t be angry at me that that’s how it is. I didn’t make it so.

Well duh. As adults, authority figures and parents that’s our job to push for these things and get it done for them. Just because we had to suffer through it doesn’t mean the status quo should remain the same. That’s the same BS “pull up the ladder behind me” attitude that’s affecting so many other things.

cm0002,

Fuck yea, fuckin POS

cm0002,

You can always add more layers of clothing, you can only take off so much before you get arrested.

cm0002,

Also!

No. bugs. Especially spiders

cm0002,

…how? The only acceptable one (Even though I personally don’t like it) is cash.

Fax sucks ass and should have been put in the grave LONG ago, Flash drives are superior to Floppy in every way and fuck paper filing, digitized paperwork is far superior.

cm0002,

I tried my Radarr to see if it could find it on my indexers, no dice unfortunately

The IMDb id is 23736044 if anyone else wants to try

cm0002,

I noticed some of these posters had a much better Disney logo than the ones I was seeing before, there’s been some horrible monstrosities lmao

cm0002,

What are you talking about? I JUST did that on Google a few hours ago and it worked fine

cm0002,

I agree with you to a point, some spices used in cultural dishes are extremely potent and permeates into everything when cooked even semi-frequently. Even worse than cigarette smoke IMO. Indian curry is delicious, but the cooking process of it…not so much.

It’s not completely unreasonable to class these spices as having similar damage to property as cigarette smoke and often it takes similar remediation methods to get rid of it.

Newly-ish married. How to plan and save for home buying in NYC?

Newliyish married, but the new reality is partner finished law school so going back to the DINK lifestyle. We live in NYC and are lucky to be in a rent regulated apartment. On one hand we realize it’s cheaper to stay there forever, but it’s not the most well maintained building the the amenities aren’t the best… Anyways,...

cm0002,

Honestly, screw the down payment, keep saving/what you have saved for house emergencies. Like furnace/AC going out, basement flooded etc.

There are lots of mortgage programs you can get that require 0 or very low <3-5% down payment

cm0002,

I seem to see this “powered by Admiral” popup on lots of other websites.

Whatever this Admiral company tech is, it’s the only one that’s been able to detect my Ad blocking in a long time, has anyone been able to defeat it yet?

cm0002,

You gotta have the buy one get one coupons they always mail out, then it comes to about 6$ each, not 5 but better than 12 at least lmao

cm0002,

You say that like humans don’t have a long list of “inventions”/designs that totally wouldn’t/didn’t work but built it anyways lmao

cm0002,

There was a story series on that other site that went indepth with this (Just without the Star Trek part) I forgot what it was called, Don’t Fuck with the Humans or something like that

cm0002,

Looks cool, but if it can’t pull down my bank transactions it’s probably DOA for me personally. I can never seem to stick with maintaining manually entering transactions into any of these budgeting apps/spreadsheets.

Mint (RIP) got me the closest, but USAA syncing broke every other damn day for some reason and it couldn’t handle reconciling a PayPal transaction and the corresponding bank transactions so all payments I routed through PayPal always ended up being doubled (or in one case tripled lmao)

Apple announces that RCS support is coming to iPhone next year (9to5mac.com)

In a surprising move, Apple has announced today that it will adopt the RCS (Rich Communication Services) messaging standard. The feature will launch via a software update “later next year” and bring a wide range of iMessage-style features to messaging between iPhone and Android users....

cm0002,

Wait what about Edge? Can I finally remove it without scripts and registry hacks??

cm0002,

Really? High schoolers who have been known to shame/bully/hold random things as status symbols that most grown adults wouldn’t even give a second thought to?

Lmao, they definitely do and I’ve even seen it first hand in a past life as a substitute. There’s also plenty of articles and surveys to confirm it

cm0002,

Ah fuck, here’s the watering down

The company describes these changes as specific to Windows 11 PCs in the EEA, so it’s unclear if users outside this area will be able to utilize these functions.

Fuckin MS lmao

cm0002,

It’s probably relatively trivial for MS since they have the entire codebase to work with.

I’m more curious on how they plan on limiting it to the EEA, I bet we’ll have much simpler/safer one-click mods that will force windows into deploying these EEA only changes in any region in short order

cm0002,

love of her life …

Coffee

When they established communications with Starfleet again and got the letter that Mark moved on she was just like “Meh, I knew he would probably move on” lmfao

But do NOT fuck with her Coffee lol

cm0002,

Lol I remember that

Computer, one last change.

Delete the WIFE

cm0002,

Well he made a coffee substitute, but it was a sludge like consistency, but I don’t remember her drinking it. Neelix poured it and she saw the sludge but then got called to the bridge

cm0002,

I mean the whole point of a foldable is to be a normal phone, until you need the bigger screen the most. Excluding the Galaxy Folds, dunno what Samsung was thinking with that, it’s way too narrow to satisfy the normal phone part.

cm0002,

I’ve tried tablets over and over again over the years, there’s tablets in storage all over my house. The phone/tablet combo to me suffers from 1 major fatal flaw, the tablet is never around when you need it the most.

You can’t carry tablets in normal pockets, sure you probably have some jeans with bigger-than-normal pockets, but now that’s the first friction point: needing to ensure you wear your special jeans.

Now you need to carry it separately, not just slapping it in your pocket and going out the door. The second friction point: Always needing to carry some sort of small backpack/fanny pack/something to carry the tablet or resign yourself to letting it be loose in your car (Assuming you even have a car) or carrying it in your hands everywhere.

To me the foldable solves all of that, it’s a phone when you need a phone, but got caught up in an unexpected long wait somewhere? Boom, tablet, ready to go when you are when you need it the most. And that’s not even getting into things that tablets can’t do, I for one have fallen in love with the ability to partially fold it like a book when reading.

cm0002,

When I got hired to take charge of the IT department, the first thing I did was phase out ALL HP products and then implemented an “Unacceptable and Barred Brands for purchasing” policy with HP right at top.

cm0002,

Also in the US so it might differ.

Honestly, if you’re in love with the house and you really want it, go for it, try to get them to cover as much as you can. At least you are somewhat aware of what you’re getting into, but beware these kinds of things have a tendency to balloon in costs. What starts out as 15k in estimated costs could easily end up being 25k by the time everything’s done.

If you’re not that attached to it if it’s “Just a house” to you, try to get them to cover the full cost of repairs, if they say no walk away. In the US price cuts have already started happening, houses are sitting on the market longer and longer again. On top of that, you said you’re buying for 85k + 15k for repairs that ends up being 100k and you can get a much better maintained house for 100k? I’d take that option if it were me and save myself the headache.
