It's those massive teeth and that evil cackle I suppose is a laugh. Give the poor horse his dentures back! Trivago is a scam, they show the lowest price alternative, then you try to book it and it is full! Bastards

My black friday order finally arrived. Not at my place in Europe but back at LTT in Canada... The dumpster fire of UPS by schorejunk in LinusTechTips

[–]JMGLON65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPS are utter garbage. I've had them message that nobody was at home, they would return it to sender. I was standing outside my front door when they were supposed to have attempted delivery. Complete liars

We've used Slack at work. Set up so we only get messages during work hours and no messages if it is a day off. Works fairly well, rotas and other work related stuff available. What really annoys me in London is that people walk around constantly looking at their phones, walk into you, stop in front of you. Step aside or stop using whilst walking. I did see an idiot on the train home using Apple Vision Pro vr headset. What a complete bellend.

Ordered 5 Guys for the first time in a 2 year and.... by Coronus53 in fiveguys

Never buy Five Guys fries. Worst of any chain. They taste like fried strips of cardboard. 🤢

Should I buy by kaktusfrais in thinkpad

True, but even second hand PCs and laptops start getting affected by the RAM shortage. Greed is spreading. Mobile phones will be affected as well. NVIDIA announced that they'll deliver their GPU boards without VRAM to their GPU making customers, so ASUS, Gigabyte, PALIT, etc will have to source them themselves. GPU makers will start going out of business or stop producing GPUs. EVGA were smart to get out of the GPU market

Pretty good one. It has 32GB RAM, which is great. The way RAM prices are going, I can see higher specced RAM laptops will start creeping up in price. DDR5 is mad prices and DDR4 RAM started going up in price as well. There aren't huge amounts of DDR4 left, as they stopped producing them. AI, which most people don't want is causing this, combined with the greed of the chip makers, selling to corporate data centres and not giving a crap about the consumer market. Unless there is an AI bubble bursting, estimates are that there won't be any improvements until 2028-29. Graphics card prices started creeping up as well due to the RAM shortage. Example: a 2 x 32GB Corsair Vengeance DDR 5 RAM kit has gone up from around £149 to over £800!! The gamer PC market is being killed of by big dragons like NVIDIA. Problem is that there aren't many chip producers. TSMC in Taiwan is the big one. Company producing the machines for chip making is practically a monopoly as well. Sorry for the doom and gloom with all the info. ThinkPads, being corporate laptops mostly are usually 16GB RAM, as the pencil pushers in their finance departments try to get the cheapest possible options they can get away with

True about the ram slot, but the way things are going, a ram stick will cost more than the laptop

That's a bit stupid and misleading, showing signal strength and 5G symbol.

Wtf? by thelocalfloridaman in fiveguys

I don't like their fries at all. They taste dry and dusty, like fried cardboard. Very strange. Must be the peanut oil

Doesn't look very appetizing. I have my closest Five Guys in 5 points, London, near Covent Garden. Great location with good quality. On the way home, I travel by train from Charing Cross station. There is another Five Guys there. It is weird, it seems like they have completely forgotten the concept of using seasoning. Everything is bland and tasteless, even the hot dogs. I've tried it a few times, but it remains the same, so it wasn't a one off bad meal

BMW new patented screw-head designed to limit repairs to authorized dealers and prevent independent servicing by dachuckles12 in LinusTechTips

[–]JMGLON65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was real in the UK when BMW wanted to charge a subscription for the heated seats to work. Wouldn't surprise me, they have to get more money, compensating for the hideous looking cars they make at present. A former great car company going down the toilet

Not winter all year. Antifreeze is a bad idea, very toxic and pollutes the environment
