They’ve probably had their parents murdered by a blind gunman.

There have been very few shows that have actually been brought to a proper conclusion instead of actually being canceled though. Maybe fewer than 10?

Mint/Ubuntu simply wasn’t feasible for me as a beginner. The Nvidia GPU drivers weren’t updated properly enough to run games after waking the PC for some reason and trying to fix it myself kept making things worse. CachyOS works fine for gaming and has plenty of support considering it’s a mutable Arch-based distro.

What have y’all bought so far on this sale? I just got Detroit: Become Human for $4.

AC7 is great I must’ve dumped over a hundred hours trying to ace all the missions. You’ll be hard pressed to find better value.

It’ll be as cathartic as it’ll be catastrophic. I’m personally looking forward to the devastation this folly will bring, if only to see PC parts makers come back to the consumer market with hat in hand.

I’ll admit I’m a lazy bastard who likes the convenience of things just working. I also really like using Solidworks for CAD drafting. The things Microsoft has been doing with breaking its OS in stupid and privacy-invading ways pushed me over the edge now. It’s been a struggle to learn the intricacies of Linux in order to set up whatever distro I’m trying at the moment. I’d still rather struggle with a difficult to master OS at this point than go back and let Windows 11 get worse with AI bullshit and sell out my privacy for greater shareholder value though.

In my experience so far all I can say is I prefer mutable distros that make it easier for me to install and run a VPN, even if it makes it hard for me to access my local NAS because of it.

Are they used HDDs? Nothing worse than buying something that’s on the brink of dying.

One of my old jobs had a pallet full of perfectly good PSUs, o-scopes, H bridges, and a bunch of miscellaneous data cables. They were all gonna be trashed either because their projects were cancelled or had a minor flaw they didn’t want to fix. My buddies and I rescued a bunch of equipment before the company padlocked it. My advice is be discreet. Companies hate it when people recover shit they throw out whether it be perfectly good equipment or food.

Indika is a fucking trippy experience. It definitely stands out from the others in this list in a very good way.

Short answer: it depends. I used to attend Anime Expo every year but it got so big that lines became unbearable. Most interesting panels tend to be overcrowded so good luck getting in unless you want to sacrifice time for other things and get in line really early. The vendors can be cool where you can find some unique and hard to find merch but it takes a lot of walking past booths that have a lot of the same things. That said, the bigger festivals have the most interesting things to see and do just know going in you won’t be able to do everything you want.

I’ve mostly been sticking to smaller conventions and have been having fun despite the smaller scale. Tickets are way cheaper too. Maybe try a smaller event to see if you like the vibe.

Huh. I’ll be damned. Reviews of it say it’s pretty mid with it being a little too sweet. Guess I’ll stick to vanilla CR highballs.

I occasionally see comments to the effect of, “Oh, really? Can you tell me more about that?”

Fuck. Am I a bot?

Come to think of it, I wonder why Crown Royal hasn’t released a maple syrup whiskey yet.

Go one step further and ask why they’re wearing clothes. What are they hiding in their pants they’re so ashamed of?

You chaebols sure are a contentious people.

Nothing in particular. I stay lying in bed lying completely still, consciously relaxing every muscle in my body and trying to focus on my heartbeat for up to an hour at a time. It doesn’t work for some reason and it’s exhausting.

Catholics are like the nerdy collectors of religion. Some of my family members collect Virgin Marys like I collect Gundams.

The design looks so solid but it’s likely not more powerful than an RX 6750XT or RTX3080 so it’s not something I’ll need sadly.

I’d much prefer to see Bean Bean instead.
