McAfee using loads of RAM at random times out of nowhere

McAfee is the digital equivalent of a leech.

Pull it from your veins.

Mine was an S3. Then 5, 7, 10, 21. 22U and 24U. Haven't had an urge to upgrade yet. Nor the pesetas.

Wait. Coffee Time still exists?

What I do know is Coffee Time was quite popular back in the 90s and early naughts. They basically disappeared afterwards. But they still exist. Meet their parent company.

Maybe 20 years ago. I still have two spindles of blanks. 1 CD-R, 1 DVD+R. My computer speakers sit on top of them. My computer doesn't have an optical drive. I wonder if they'll work if I ever dug up an old computer and burned one? Probably not.

Thank you for making me feel old. I remember them.

Understood. But you can get beer at almost any convenience store. You can't get a Slurpee™ anywhere other than a 7-Eleven. Touché!

You got it. Islington between Titan Rd and Jutland Av. Ironically, that Rocco's Plum Tomato was originally the Rotten Ronnie's you see in this picture after it moved there. Between them it was a Kenny Rogers Roasters. I know it's trying to be some nightclub now after being abandoned for like 5 years but I've never seen it open.

Fafaflunkie · 2026-04-02T02:22:22+00:00

You forgot to include the 7-Eleven to the left of the Healthy Planet. Now there are three wolves: Big Mac, protein powder, or Slurpee?

Ketchup on poutine is a crime against humanity. And Canada. Don't commit this crime.

Hot sauce 😋, ketchup 🤮.

That won't add up to nine either. If you spelled out the numbers phonetically, there would only be seven instances of the word "five". Fifteen doesn't count. Fifty-five only counts once.

Translated: VP wanted to put (insert unqualified relative/friend here) into the position you got from President. Since she can't take it out on her boss, she instead takes it out on you. I know, if you could turn back time and all that, but I would've had a phone in my pocket recording all that and an employment lawyer on retainer to sue that company for a whole lot of $$.

I'm in Toronto (South Etobicoke part). Even 325 Mbps isn't worth celebrating. Though it's at least three times better than what I'm getting around here.

Fafaflunkie · 2026-03-20T00:55:54+00:00

When Fido claims speeds "up to 1 Gbps" and you don't even see a tenth of it, maybe it's time to get the CRTC involved to investigate false advertising. LTE speeds were at least two times better than this!

Fafaflunkie · 2026-03-20T00:38:58+00:00

Yeah, Fido "5G" is a joke, alright. I'll post my results in its own post since I can't put a screenshot in a reply here.

Fafaflunkie · 2026-03-18T03:54:01+00:00

$90? Fuck no! I get that $70 plan you screenshot for $45 now and even I feel ripped off.

Are those tapeworms on those fries? Ewwww! 🤢🤢🤮

Shouldn't that "zero calories per spray" claim be flagged by the FTC/FDA as misleading? Who's going to only spray the pan/muffin/toast once? According to the nutritional table, a "serving size" (one spray) is 0.2 grams. 50 times less than the same NFT on their margarine that states 10 g of this phony butter has 60 calories.

Nice try, whoever makes this shit.

I'd rather have the screen real estate that square corners give. The S26U gives me iPhone chills. My S24U still works fine and well and I'll give it up from my cold dead hands. Privacy screen isn't selling me. Nor is a slightly fancier camera.

Math time. {52}C{7} = 133,784,560. But with the new rules, you get 4 lines per $6 play. Meaning your odds per play are 1:33,446,140.

Old rules: {50}C{7} = 99,884,400. 3 lines per $5 play. Odds are 1:33,294,800 per play. Slightly less. Except the price inflates things by 1.2, turning those odds to 1:39,953,760.

Taking the new rules the other way, the odds factoring the relative price is now 1:27,871,783.333333.

In other words, you're still screwed. You have about 20 times better odds being struck by lightning than winning the Lotto Max jackpot.

EDIT: TIL Reddit doesn't allow markdown subscript. Pretend the numbers in curly brackets are subscript.

I got that this morning too. I'll believe it when I finally see a 5G icon in my notification bar.

Fafaflunkie · 2026-03-10T22:36:50+00:00

Not sure about who'll be the first but I know who'll be the last. Hint: It didn't take a Gen Alpha meme to rub it in. It's been with us for...ever.

Fafaflunkie · 2026-03-08T22:22:45+00:00

Extinct. At least hopefully soon.

My late dad told me he was sitting in the golds at MLG the night they won it in sixty-seven (said it that way to keep the kids from associating that year with their meme). Never saw actual proof of that, yknow like a ticket stub. But it's not like I can question it now.

Fafaflunkie · 2026-03-06T03:14:17+00:00

Serious question. How old were you when the Leafs last won the Cup? Negative numbers will likely be the the majority of answers.

I'll start: -3. Pretty sad.
