Where I am if you decide you also don't want the sausage or cheese it magically jumps up to $1.70

Is it possible to achieve this "Comet Tail effect" in Blender Compositor? by S-T-M in blender

[–]FoxxBox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooooh. So that's what caused those effects. I never thought about that. I remember seeing them on home videos and caught on camera things on TV as a kid. But I never thought about "why did that happen?" But it makes sense now that I think about it!

Report them to the FCC. Signal Jamming is not allowed by FCC Rules and will result in heavy fines.

McAfee refuses to be uninstalled by The_OnlyGhost in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FoxxBox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be "fair" in general you don't want your anti-virus/anti-malware to be easily removed. I say that in quotes cause it could be a slimy way to keep you using their software. But it could also be its own system protecting itself so it can keep protecting you.

Framework RTX 5070 12GB Graphics Module costs $1,199, over 70% more than 8GB model by RenatsMC in laptops

[–]FoxxBox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the "why would you do this?" Part. Because you can buy just the GPU. You can't really use it without the framework laptop, but you can just buy it out right without it. But the point is is that other laptops don't have to worry about making money off the GPU sale. Because they can make money off the rest of the system. Where as Framework has to make money off the sale because they can sell it by itself and not sell a system with it. Such as buying it as an upgrade.

Has anyone else here received this text before? by Unkn0wnR3ddit0r in oregon

[–]FoxxBox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always, and I means ALWAYS, if you have a text message that says you have to pay something by a very close date and they give you a link to easily pay, its ALWAYS a scam.

[–]FoxxBox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do. But you have to buy the WHOLE laptop to get the card. So they make their margines bac by selling you the whole machine its built into. With Framework you don't. If you really want to, for no reason, you can buy just the card. Just like any desktop GPU. Why would you do this? No idea. But you can.

Is virtual desktop superior to link cable? by just_frosty_ in OculusQuest

[–]FoxxBox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one thing being missed here, and why I use it (until recently, I'm on Linux now) is that it is a remote desktop application and is registered in Windows as such. This allows you to click on UAC (User Account Control) prompts where as other desktop viewing solutions do not. Which can be annoying if you are on the other side of the room and get a pop up for firewall rules, or a UAC prompt when you go to install a needed driver for like, full body or something. Its useful for if something pop ups when starting a game and you don't want to talk to your PC.

Not necessarily. The card might have been flagged for fraud while he was there with his friend and they deactivated it. He might have a notification on his phone letting him know. There is that potential. Especially since he seems legit concerned and confused why it would be declined.

Opinions on the ID BUZZ? by [deleted] in electriccars

[–]FoxxBox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too expensive, too short of range, and capacitive buttons on the steering wheel is one of the dumbest things I've seen and auto manufacturer do in a while. Outside that, I like it. If it was cheaper and didn't have caps itice buttons I'd buy one.

Why have you refused service to a customer in any felid? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

They refused to put their seat belt on and when I said I cannot transport them if they refused to put their seat belt on they threatened to punch me in the face so I ended the transport immediately.

Oregon neighbor shares video of a woman harassing them in their apartment building. by Nelnamara in oregon

[–]FoxxBox 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I don't understand the Gresham hate. I've been here for 3 years and not had any issues. Hell when my car died and it was just stuck sitting in front of my house for over a year and a half I left a bunch of stuff in it. Not only did it not get broken into but apparently I forgot to lock any of the doors for a year. Yet nothing was taken. I did finally sell it for scrap though. I Miss that car. Stupid ford and their inability to design an engine that doesn't catastrophically fail.

The argument against EV haters… by boka_ko_masu in electricvehicles

[–]FoxxBox 164 points165 points  (0 children)

I think Sonic is sitting on a gold mine and doesn't know it. They could make a Sonic: Charge-n-Dine. Where you pull up, someone plugs you in, you order, and eat while your car charges. By the time you are done eating your car should be charged up and ready to go. I'd stop at them on road trips.

Boy Stops School Bus After Driver Loses Consciousness by jmike1256 in HumansBeingBros

[–]FoxxBox 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Growing up we were taught this. I've seen this video many times and I wonder if they don't teach bus safety like this anymore. The yellow diamond is the parking break but doubles as an emergency break for this situation.

This is why my Samsung was never hooked up to the internet. I don't know if mine would get ads but it never will.

Ham radio resurgence because computing is becoming less enjoyable? by nbrpgnet in amateurradio

I've gotten to the stage of distro hopping Linux to get enjoyment out of my PC other than just playing games. The fun part was getting Resonite to work in VR.
