reallynotnick, 8 months ago to news in Powerball jackpot increases to $1.55 billion after no one wins

When someone calls it an idiot tax they mean the actual $2 tickets themselves, not the winnings.

reallynotnick, 9 months ago to biodiversity in Farmer unknowingly captures animal extinct in region for over a century

It’s a bit weird because it’s “in a region”, which begs the question if I capture a creature from a different region and move it to a region where it was extinct, is it extinct anymore? (There being only one also means it will quickly become 0 again.)

Idk, just a weird thought.

reallynotnick, 9 months ago to technology in Reddit revamps gold system with opportunities to earn real money for posts

Question is who is just throwing $2 at comments? Should users just cut out the middleman and post their Venmo/Patreon handles or something?

If the app stores take a 30% cut then they are making 60cents off the $2 and Reddit takes in 40¢ while the user gets $1.

Just pay me the dollar directly, be sure to upvote, comment below and subscribe for more comments like this.

Reddit’s post was distinctly non-specific about the dollar amounts people can expect to see

Lol, so basically “we might give you money if we feel like it”.

What Coke offshoots have actually landed? Like Zero, Diet, Cherry, Vanilla and maybe Lemon?

reallynotnick, 9 months ago to technology in Should I putchase a 4-year-old nVidia TV Pro, another technology, or wait for next Gen?

HLG, AV1, QMS, VP9 Profile 2 (YouTube HDR) and faster menus would make me want to upgrade from my 2017 Shield as that’d improve watching videos.

It only needs like a 3min charge to get through a work day, so it’s not completely terrible if you do forget at least.

MXM GPUs never really caught on, and nobody builds their own laptop, it’s just not a thing like it is with desktops.

Best option if you want upgradable graphics would be an external Thunderbolt dock, but even then there are plenty of caveats there.

We’re the ones doing the scamming

reallynotnick, 9 months ago to badrealestate in Refrigerator nook of shame.

It’s definitely to hide the back of the fridge which is ugly, that said I probably would have put it on the wall with the stove, and maybe moved the stove across if that was cramped.

reallynotnick, 9 months ago to technology in Why We’re Pulling Our Recommendation of Wyze Security Cameras

That does look pretty slick! Definitely something I will have to look into more.

reallynotnick, 9 months ago to technology in Why We’re Pulling Our Recommendation of Wyze Security Cameras

Are there decent camera systems that allow you to self-host everything?

I need to fight mecha-Hilter, I don’t care if it’s in complete silence ha.

reallynotnick, 9 months ago to games in Doom Studio id Software is Seemingly Working on new Version of its Game Engine - id Tech 8

It’s a shame we have only gotten 1 game on id Tech 7 (Doom Eternal). I know it’s a highly specialized engine, but I’d love to see more FPS titles using it or this new version (Wolfenstein 3 please)
