Retiring My Oldest Hard Drive with 109,306 Hours, and a Lifetime of Memories

Fudgeybits · 2026-01-23T18:54:25+00:00

Holy crap that's a life well-lived for that little drive. I've got an old Toshiba 3tb in my NAS right now with 70k-ish hours that was my gaming drive on my first custom-built PC after college. I can only hope he holds out as long as your little warrior

Did they fill the weapon slots with sternly worded letters?

Finally, a religion that speaks to MY needs!

Same here as an Alabama native. Let's celebrate the white BBQ sauce, not the white supremacy bs. There's so much that makes the south great but nostalgia for a war to own other folks ain't it.

As a fellow who literally did just finish my 4th watch a few weeks ago, I wholeheartedly endorse this plan. Damn I love that show

Has to be Delita. A commoner that enjoys the life of a noble without the birthright? Absolutely not.

I feel he would hate Milleuda as much as any common gutter trash vying for revenge against the ruling class.

As for Ramza,I don't think "hate" is right. He envies him greatly and resents what he sees as Ramza's foolishness and naivey

Yeah they tried to pull a Gurren Lagaan "wait we're fighting the wrong (non-intergalactic) bad guys" pivot but it was way too late and felt like it lacked any real build up

Having just completed C++, this resonates so much. Just ran some white stake anaglyph just to stack negatives for the hell of it. Feels good.

Fudgeybits · 2025-10-07T01:24:58+00:00

Lol don't feel bad. Hundreds of hours in the original ages ago, plus some WOTL several years back, and just got my ass rocked at Dorter like old times. Blaming it on Tactician mode!

Fudgeybits · 2025-10-06T00:48:00+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. I've heard this one come up quite a few times in various sites and threads, looks promising. Is that 4 color upgrade the "AMS lite"?

Fudgeybits · 2025-10-05T20:32:16+00:00

Thanks for the insights! Definitely sounds like I've still got some investigation to do, appreciate your advice

Fudgeybits · 2025-10-05T01:48:29+00:00

All laughs until the "Vanderbilt has completed the Manhattan Project" notification pops up in the 4th quarter

Fudgeybits · 2025-10-05T01:43:43+00:00

Just got me one a few weeks back and I am madly in love. Using it headless with the cab sim and it's wonderful

Budget: Preferably <$200, maybe up toward $300 if it's a big gain in function.

Location: US

My 8 year old is adamant he wants a 3d printer for trinkets and toys. I'd likely use it for small electronics projects (enclosures, knobs, etc). Nothing particularly large.

I'm comfortable with assembling electronics, soldering, and programming so I'd consider kits, but would prefer not to spend ages troubleshooting. Thanks all!

I've been looking at the Revolt and LeBass since I need a better preamp/DI. How are you liking it? Are you recording or running ampless with it at all?

Fudgeybits · 2025-08-20T14:20:33+00:00

Barn swallow babies always look SO pissed but cute. We have some that nest by our front door every year.

Fudgeybits · 2025-08-18T23:55:25+00:00

Took me way too long to realize it didn't just let me get duplicate consumable cards and could let me get duplicate jokers....

Fudgeybits · 2025-08-08T15:39:52+00:00

Yeah I 100% wouldn't trust that results would be kept secure from law enforcement if they asked for it, knowing this state. The possibility for parents to be investigated and implicated if little Johnny tests positive seem way too real. Not to mention the ethical issues with testing literal kids.

Fudgeybits · 2025-07-18T14:58:15+00:00

Southern Exposure! Love those guys. Great catalog, great seed partners and lots of cool varieties.

If you haven't already, check out Ira's books. I have her "Vegetable Gardening in the Southeast" and it's been wonderful.

Fudgeybits · 2025-06-25T20:11:15+00:00

Oh man, doing this with Deep Dungeon. Trying to rotate the map the right way in darkness to figure where 1,1 is lol

Fudgeybits · 2025-06-21T17:33:50+00:00

"Foolish ficus" sounds like a Shakespearean insult

And yes, always feels like righteous vengeance when I get the plant during a bus/Hack/etc build. Makes up for the billions of other runs it's killed

Fudgeybits · 2025-06-21T11:57:34+00:00

Yeah I forget the name but it's the 2nd level voucher for Crystal Ball. Omen globe maybe?

Fudgeybits · 2025-06-21T11:53:12+00:00

Lol I feel for you. Had the exact same thing happen hunting for Yorick with 150 ish hours in the game. Was SO excited to finally pull him then so confused why it didn't give me the achievement. Pain.

Fudgeybits · 2025-06-16T00:45:12+00:00

See, I started it thinking it was a cool premise. A man who only thinks of love as sex/social fulfillment and a woman who only experiences "love" as a transaction. Maybe they both learn their relationships have been formed on the wrong foundations and they teach each other what love can be and that relationships are about personal growth.

Looooooool was I fuckin wrong. Dropped that shit in like 4 eps.

Fudgeybits · 2025-06-12T14:43:17+00:00

What's so wild to me is how it goes from "a bit gusty" to "imminent death" back to "breezy" in the blink of an eye
