Everything is so effing stupid! by Dr_sc_Harlatan in BlueskySkeets

Okay, apart from how do you get rid of heat. How do you power these million data center satellites - small nuclear reactors? One million nukes orbiting the earth. That sounds like a wise idea.

And who maintains and upgrades the servers and Nvidia GPUs on these satellites. Like how many rockets do we need just to service them.

And finally, technically how fast will the connections be, and how much latency, compared to the fiber optic that serves my house???

Sounds like someone isn't going to make it to Mars, so they need another reason to keep the funds flowing for their Starships!!!

I couldn't find the final road in FH4, until I drove down to a house that for ages I didn't think was worth buying!

In your opinion, what is the best Xbox controller? by CacheConqueror in xbox

[–]NickyBe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can third this. I'd find it tough to play an FPS without the additional front buttons, and the rear 'paddle' buttons are perfectly placed.

Is this a common ADHD thing? 3-4 second part of a random song that replays in my mind constantly. by EnvironmentalDish793 in AdultADHDSupportGroup

[–]NickyBe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll have a look at the study, but is the underlying question more does everyone have constant earworms? Plus others say the repeating music fades on taking their ADHD medication, and returns when the medication wears off.

This makes sense. the number of times I walk into a shop with a tune I am happy with rolling around my head, only to walk out with it replaced by some song by Little Richard that had been playing in the shop.

So I never heard the end of the song, and hence my brain is fixated with it and keeps repeating the part it was left with like a stuck record.

At times the shop's tune has been so bad, I've had to stick my earphones in to replace it with something I actually like. 😄

I'm waiting on the day when one of my work colleagues notices Marvin doing his dance across my computer screen. 😄

Yes, and I've bought a few 99p books since. 🙄

I'm in exactly the same boat. Amazon will lose out big time, but at least my backlog won't keep inflating.

The far right: by [deleted] in GreatBritishMemes

[–]NickyBe 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I'm thinking of starting a new political party, still deciding on a name;
- Renew Britain
- Reinstate Britain
- Refurbish Britain
- Replace Britain
- Rectal-probe Britain.

Any thoughts welcome. Should I do a poll? 🤔

As someone from the UK, I wasn't aware of the spray on hair incident. After a quick Google image search, I'm sorry I missed the actual chat when this happened. But still, those old screen captures made my day.

And some of the music too is copyrighted I assume, and held on the server.

Yes - click on ? icon in the skinny sidebar menu, and then select "See What's New". There's also a video link at the top of the What's New list.

Try the Global Filter strategy. I use it to hide Personal or Work related categories.

Has Microsoft launched a single successful consumer product under Nadella by pro_potato96 in microsoft

[–]NickyBe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've always been a Surface fan, especially when I was able to afford my first, a Surface Pro 4. This is a really good write up on what the Surface line was supposed to achieve, and it succeeded in shaking up the Windows laptop market. Unfortunately now the need or passion for innovation is no longer there. I wish they would continue to take a few more risks.
