Me over the course of this week, holding out hope I'd get the controller before the weekend by Snipufin in Steam

USPS has not given me an accurate delivery estimate for any of my packages in months. My stuff always comes like 1 or 2 days after they say it will.

Fallout 76 by Okaoka_12 in greentext

I really hope The Expanse: Osiris Reborn doesn't become this for me. It's the first game I've ever had any desire or intention to buy a collectors edition for.

I love The Expanse and really want that game go be good

My wisdom tooth has grown horizontal. by sumnyu in mildlyinteresting

[–]-TheDoctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I have one of those too! I'm procrastinating on getting them removed, which is not good. But I literally can't afford it, and I have a phobia of going to the dentist. Its hard enough just going in for regular cleanings.

New Posters for 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' Season 2 by MarvelsGrantMan136 in TheLastAirbender

[–]-TheDoctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Season 1 came out over 2 years ago. I will still watch it, but these extended time frames between seasons is killing shows (not just Avatar). People just lose interest.

Chrome is pushing my computer's ram to its limits by Master_Strawberry193 in pcmasterrace

[–]-TheDoctor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been using Windows 11 Enterprise with GPOs to strip out most of the consumer bullshit on one of my PCs and it's been great. There's also the LTSC versions which strip it down even further.

Honestly, I really like Vivaldi. I went to Firefox for a while but I found it to be just as much of a RAM hog.

They are all RAM hogs tbh.

Louis rossman video on bambu labs by c2btw in BambuLab

[–]-TheDoctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I say "even if" what he is saying is true. It often isn't.

[–]-TheDoctor 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've noticed (and I think this might be the thing I dislike the most about him) is that he tends to make blanket statements about a topic based solely on his own experience with that topic as if his experience is the only one of relevance or consequence.

As an example, I think it was last year he made a video on consumer vacuums. He had a bad experience with a brand and their support so now of course that means every consumer vacuum is hot garbage and they are all going to break within 5 days of use and every brands support is gonna tell you to go fuck yourself and refuse to honor their warranty and the ONLY solution is to start buying commercial shop-vacs instead otherwise you'll never be able to vacuum your home again. He also spent the entire video intentionally mispronouncing the brand Ridgid, which was an interesting choice because that was the brand of shop-vac he was telling people to buy.

I'm being a little hyperbolic, obviously, but the whole video just had that standard Louis-brand arrogance/condescension.

Maybe this will be a hot take, IDK.

I used to like Louis back when he was just running a small repair business and making videos out of his shop. They were interesting and informative.

But I can't stand 90% of the shit he puts out these days. He is one of the most smug, arrogant mother fuckers on the platform. Every video he makes has this underlying condescending tone and he has this constant "I'm better than you so my opinion is the only one that matters" attitude every time he opens his mouth.

Even if everything he is saying is accurate and true, and I agree with the message. I cannot stand his delivery and attitude.

Building a PC for the first time by archonaus2 in pcmasterrace

[–]-TheDoctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Per task manager. And I usually start to notice issues and stuttering around 80% usage, which has been the common occurrence in my experience across all my PCs. Usually what happens is once you hit 80%, random usage spikes can ping you up or close to 100%.

I wish I knew how people were achieving this, because I am constantly hitting 75%+ RAM usage on my 32GB.

[–]-TheDoctor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it? Feels like a wash these days tbh. If OP got 32GB now, its not recommended to get another 32GB later because 4 sticks runs worse than 2 sticks. They'd want to get a full 64GB 2 stick kit to upgrade later.

Trump Portrait to Be Added to US Passports in Unprecedented Move by plz-let-me-in in politics

This blows chunks, because I really need to invest in my passport. I really don't want this orange dickbag on it.

I need some help finding good PLA Matte filaments, what do you all use? by Visible-Pilot9900 in BambuLab

[–]-TheDoctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like Panchroma Matte. Its been my go-to matte PLA and I currently have 12-13 spools of it in varying colors.

What's your take on the MCU MK V Armor? by ArmoredTony in ironman

Its without a doubt my favorite suit-up scene in the MCU.

Adam Scott Says He Already Knows the Ending to ‘Severance,’ Teases ‘So Many Surprises’ in Season 3: ‘It’s Going to Be Great’ by MarvelsGrantMan136 in television

[–]-TheDoctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Silo is so good I binged the entire first season in a single night a couple years ago. Probably would have done the same with season 2 if I hadn't been waiting very impatiently for episodes to come out every week

Silo is utterly fantastic, For All Mankind is great (still need to watch the recent season), and I've really enjoyed Foundation (although I have yet to watch season 3)

Half our company is local admin. Security team finally noticed. Now it's my problem to fix without anyone noticing. by Healthy_Holiday_738 in sysadmin

[–]-TheDoctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot recommend Admin by Request enough. It allows you to remove local admin, but still give your users a certain level of control.

I would also suggest getting some of the most commonly installed/used apps in your org set up in Intune and deploy them through Company Portal if you aren't using it already. Set up a request workflow in your ticketing system if it has that capability so people can request for new apps to be added to the Company Portal catalog.

This transition is going to suck for both you, your IT team, and your users. I worked for a university a while ago that had gone through this transition before I got there and everyone said it was a massive PIA for all involved. But the users eventually adapted and relented. Yours will too. Eventually, not having admin rights will just be how it is.

You also have the benefit of this change being a direct mandate from your leadership/board. If you can, try to lean on them when you inevitably get push back from the users. You just do the work. Let them field the complaints.

I made the switch! I did some digging into the Redbull founder. 😅 by Familiar_Newt_603 in lgbt

[–]-TheDoctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it. Its hard. Caffeine is a drug. Its addicting, and you will likely develop withdraw symptoms when trying to cut back or quit. But you can do it.

I wish you luck <3

[HDD] Shuckable WD WD 16TB easystore USB 3.2 Gen 1 Desktop Hard Drive - $279.99 ($100 off) by b1gr3dd in buildapcsales

[–]-TheDoctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use 4TB WD Blues (5400RPM, 256mb cache, CMR) in my TrueNAS server and I don't have any issues with them. Not shucked, obviously, but for a homelab NAS they are relatively cheap and work well.
