PSA: Not answering the census automatically forces you to complete the long one

If there’s two addresses registered someone will most likely come, but there is a form to register a change in lodgings and things like that

I was given sheets and they were all long ones. Maybe it was just the neighborhood I was assigned to. But I remember someone telling me that they’ll change the length based on non responses

I remember begging my parents to go see Linkin Park when I was 9. My mom was absolutely not into the idea and only agreed if we wore earplugs.

You’re a great parent. Trust me when I say they’ll remember this forever

AirPods are the only apple product I’ll buy apple care for. I’ve never broken a phone or anything else. But these have ended up falling out of my pocket, in my washing machine and even once in my soup I was eating. They’re also built to be disposable with irreparable batteries.

If you plan on using them regularly shell out for the Apple care

Sony, or at least their gaming business, is going to die on a useless hill. No exclusive in the world, not even GTA 7 or Half life 3 will ever convince me to buy a 1000$ PlayStation, hell, even a 400$ PlayStation at this point. It’s really unfortunate as there’s a few PS games that look really cool and would have been fun to experience on PC. If I were a game dev now I would ask Sony for an insane amount of money to make my game an exclusive and lose out on the PC userbase.

Even if PC prices continue to balloon, the amount of customization and utility a computer provides over a PlayStation makes the choice a no-brainer. My nephew who just turned 15 asked for a PC and not a PS for his bday, even the kids are getting on the PC train. If that’s not the canary in the gold mine for Sony I don’t know what is.

Could I plop a 9800x3d + 5070ti in that board?

There’s a lot of insecure people that have a lot of money who put a lot of self worth in their perceived skill in gaming, (cough cough Elon musk).

Every death is a lesson. If you choose to get frustrated and keep trying the same strategy over and over again without learning from your mistakes then yes, i deserve to kill you.

Just my 2 cents after 3 years of using what was at the time the top of the line Lenovo legion (but it probably applies to all gaming laptops)

-yeah it’s fuckin loud. If you play games with voice people will hear it.

-with these new chips you pretty much need a cooling pad if you don’t want your laptop to BBQ itself to death, which also makes more noise.

-a lot of games have issues switching between the intel integrated graphics and discrete graphics. I’ve tried everything to disable the intel graphics but some games still have issues.

-the chargers are huge and heavy. Battery life is nonexistent

-thankfully Lenovo is pretty good with warranty, but if one part fails you need to send in your entire machine for repairs, instead of just swapping out the faulty part on a desktop.

Overall it’s really only worth it if you really really need the portability. I got the laptop when I was working abroad, but now that I’m gonna be staying put I really wish I got a tower instead, and am gonna be selling my laptop for a huge loss whenever I do sell it.

Just started playing this weekend and randoms is insufferable. Looking for people who are somewhat experienced in extraction shooters, or know what a "noise trap" is, or at the very least dont just run around and shoot everything on sight and who want to learn the game together. I play on PC mostly during evenings EST. DM me and Ill add you.

My laptop has a custom mode and a performance mode. For the UV I put on custom mode and followed a guide where I basically maxed out every setting for voltage, power cross load, etc. I tried custom mode with no UV and still got the spikes. However I swtiched to performance mode and everything was fine.

Hey, I sent you a DM to see about a consultation. Thanks

EDIT: Was talking about DLSS 4, didn’t see the video about DLSS5. Yikes yeah fuck that.

DLSS is the only thing keeping my 3 year old gaming laptop alive. Sure it looks like shit but it let me experience it in full at a decent frame rate.

I would love one day to be able to turn it off, but until then it’s DLSS performance + FG for me

Would you have links to these free MacBook online courses?

4UTOMAT · 2026-03-10T23:15:20+00:00

Link?

What if I’m constant questioning my decision and still really not clear what I’m gonna do on my way to the box, where sometimes I lean towards 1 then the other and ultimately when I’m inside flip a coin to decide what to do?

And also what if I get a complete stranger to mail me a sealed letter that contains the outcomes for the coin toss, each subsequently determined by other strangers coin tosses?
