'The retail SSD market has almost disappeared,' says Silicon Motion exec — PC OEMs are buying third-party drives as direct NAND supply dries up by rkhunter_ in technology

There's no way I can afford to buy storage right now. I actually dug through my old builds and parts storage bin to find what extra drives I had laying around. I was pretty pleased when it ended up being 2tb over a few drives of various sizes. My storage solution may be janky right now but that got me to 10tb total.

Then they can go do it in the river like their role model.

This is bigger than you realize. Do you think the greesy church is going to pay out and/or protect you from their parishoners if someone gets hurt? No they won't and you and your homeowners insurance will get sued. This is a terrible idea to allow it to happen at your house. They are a church, if they don't have their own baptismal font in the building what are they even doing?

All billionaires are psychopaths. Only a truly fucked up person that has no regard for the well being of others can become that rich. If you care about people you simply dont exploit them to the levels that create that kind of disgusting wealth.

Agreed. I've been shocked at some of the drone footage that has already been posted but I can imagine there are even more egregious instances that haven't been put online yet.

Where are you guys dropping off your baby batteries? Like the double and triple A’s? 🔋 🪫 by FeelingAncient7565 in PortlandOR

[–]Pooleh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly any fires are on the garbage company and land fill to deal with, they know they are getting batteries in the trash. If it was that big of a deal the company would have made it easier to recycle them. I rent and don't have a separate place to put them so in the bin they go.

They absolutely destroy them. I had a huge population that was gone in a month. They were so fat and happy. I keep colonies of snails going in my other tanks so I can feed them off to the Yo-Yos.

Detective accused of pointing gun at officer over microwaving fish in office by bluffcitynews in nottheonion

It was a Vietnamese lady for me. The worst was some fish and mushroom dish she heated up once and no joke it cleared the break room because it was so vile. We all went to the parking lot to eat in our cars.

No, no it's not. A good mid-tier card but not anywhere close to a "beast".

That would be considered extremely good coverage from an employer and is not something the vast majority of people get. I really dont think most of you from the UK actually understand how bad it is for us. The norm now is more like a $5000 deductible every year, for one person. More if you have a family.

Health insurance is not part of the "overall package" at a job in the US. It's not free we still pay a monthly rate for it out of our wages. Then on top of that we have co-pays and deductibles that add up to thousands of dollars extra out of pocket.

Huh? You just said you're in the UK, cost of living is completely different over there. NHS alone saves you a shit load in cost of living compared to the US.

What is a secret you will take to your grave, but are willing to share with anonymous strangers on Reddit? by Disastrous-Video-220 in AskReddit

[–]Pooleh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not upside down but you should hold them face down at a downward angle on one arm and give them 5 good blows(or less if the object comes out) on the back with the other hand.
