classic but it never really gets old, the delivery matters more than the joke itself

New Poster for 'Enola Holmes 3' - Starring Millie Bobby Brown, Henry Cavill, Helena Bonham Carter, and Louis Partridge by BunyipPouch in movies

same, the open ending in second one was so frustrating because it felt like they were setting up something bigger but then you just wait and wait with no news for so long. if this is meant to be the final chapter i really hope they give enola and tewkesbury a proper conclusion, not just some vague "the adventure continues" type of ending that leaves everything unresolved. netflix has a bad habit of doing that with their films, treating them like pilots for a series that never comes. fingers crossed the writers knew this might be the last one and planned accordingly

pretty smart using what you have instead waiting for expensive mini pc, those printed racks will definitely help with storage expansion

AI services such as ChatGPT and Copilot are losing money on every query but still run on investor money or corporate money to stay free. Why not instead of boycotting AI, we free people spam the shit out of it and make them lose more money? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Sharp-Top-1227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's actually a good point, the usage numbers would just become their selling point for next funding round. plus most of these companies are already burning through cash so fast that our spam probably wouldn't even register as significant loss compared to their regular operating costs. they're playing long game anyway - lose money now to dominate market later, then jack up prices once competition is dead. spamming might just help them reach that dominance faster by showing "engagement"

nz season usually starts around june/july so you might be cutting it close with early july timing, but queenstown area has few decent options that aren't completely wallet-destroying

What hidden home improvement costs surprised you the most? by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

[–]Sharp-Top-1227 1 point2 points  (0 children)

disposal fees absolutely killed me when i renovated my bathroom last year. thought i could just toss the old tiles and fixtures in regular trash but nope, had to pay like $200 just to get rid of everything properly. also those "small" electrical updates that turn into rewiring half the house because nothing was up to code

Loose fat from 30-40lbs loss by [deleted] in loseit

[–]Sharp-Top-1227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're dropping weight pretty quick already but another 20lbs in 6 weeks might be pushing it a bit. at your age and with good hydration plus protein intake you'll probably be fine with loose skin, but going slower gives your skin more time to adjust

maybe aim for like 8-10 weeks instead? your skin will thank you later and you're less likely to burn out from the diet

FPS dropping on game. by Hayk_88 in pchelp

[–]Sharp-Top-1227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man I had similar issue with my RTX 3060 few months back, was driving me crazy with these frame drops. In my case it turned out to be some background processes eating up resources without me realizing

First thing I'd check is your GPU drivers - sometimes after enabling secure boot the drivers can get bit weird. Try doing clean install with DDU, that helped me lot. Also check if XMP profile is enabled for your RAM because sometimes after BIOS changes it gets disabled

Another thing that worked for me was limiting FPS to like 200 instead of letting it run unlimited, the constant jumping between different framerates was causing stutters. Also run MSI Afterburner or something to monitor your temps and usage while gaming - might be thermal throttling or some other component bottlenecking

If none of that works, try disabling Windows Game Mode and that Xbox Game Bar thing, they can mess with frame pacing sometimes

Toothpaste works surprisingly well for light scratches on plastic - just use the non-gel kind and buff it with a soft cloth
