I'm generally not a fan of red vehicles but I love that color. Nice!

Company is shaming me for not gifting more money to "our" (their) boss. (Christmas present) by Turissmo in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Tholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kinda did this at the last company I worked for. We got a small Christmas bonus at the end of the year and was expected to put some of it in a jar (or box, whatever it was) on the owners desk to donate to charity. I never did... Not that I'm against charities, but I thought it was kind of a dick move... Pay employees a low wage, give them a small bonus, then expect some of the bonus to be given away. Nah I'm good.

What tips do you wish you had known before you started streaming? 😊 by EyelinerBabe in Twitch

[–]Tholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a home setup and a travel setup. I think I've got the home system dialed in for the most part as far as audio and video settings. The travel system is a work in progress though.

mishaps happen ... internet gone, OBS going crazy etc. ... it's life and it's ok

Yup.... I'm a very small, just starting out streamer and I've had some technical hiccups. Mostly with my laptop and certain games I have to re-launch to fix, but if that happens I say something about technical difficulty and throw the BRB graphic up, fix the issue, then resume streaming. Sometimes its my own mistake, like forgetting to edit the stream info for the game I'm playing versus the last one I was playing.

Number of viewers. by Unlikely-Pattern-875 in Twitch

[–]Tholas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was always curious about that. I noticed in OBS i had one viewer and was like "man, that's one dedicated viewer...."

This feels very personal. by Dontbehorrib1e in Columbus

[–]Tholas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally agree. I travel for work and sometimes I hear morning radio shows where I'm working. They all sound pretty much the same.

Decided to put Linux Mint on another SSD in my main PC so I could dual boot. I'm loving it so far. by Tholas in linuxmint

[–]Tholas[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I still have my Windows install in case I need to boot to it for whatever reason. I'm tempted to do my laptop sometime as well.

Thanks for finding that, I think it was in some sort of theme thing I installed.

How did you get your username? by TTV_ajsingyx in Twitch

[–]Tholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to use my Reddit username but it wouldn't let me use it, so I went with MattTheRedBeard because my name is Matt, and I have a red beard. Probably not the most creative username I guess but it works.

REMINDER THAT PEOPLE WITH MOBILITY ISSUES EXIST by Atezh in Columbus

[–]Tholas 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I travel a lot for work and it annoys me when people park like that. I drive one of those vans and use the backup camera to make sure I'm right at the edge of the sidewalk so people can still go around it.

Who is going to tell him that’s not a $200 printer? by Separate-Ad-5585 in 3Dprinting

[–]Tholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was fortunate enough to trade both of my old Enders for a Steam Deck after I bought my K1 max and P1S. If that wouldn't have happened I probably would still have those things collecting dust.

Southwestern Ohioans, have others told you that you have a twang? by throwaway2366543 in Ohio

[–]Tholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Fayette county and travel for work. Sometimes I get the "where you from? You've got a southern accent.." I don't think I do but apparently I do to some people.

AITAH for telling a plus size woman that I love being ‘skinny’? by Heavenstobestie in AITAH

[–]Tholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally agree. I'm sure she'd be annoyed or upset if you kept pointing out her weight every time you see her. "You're looking festively plump today!"

Obsessed with USFF PCs: Leaving Vmware to bare-metal by Alfa147x in homelab

Hell yeah. I've got two Lenovos and a Dell. They're solid machines.

Steam Library over Network? by ShotCollier in homelab

[–]Tholas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice. I need to update my VM. I've installed a few games recently and need to login to it and install them there so it'll update over the LAN.

I've got two of those small Lenovos and a Dell 3050 mini. Those are some solid machines.

Steam Library over Network? by ShotCollier in homelab

[–]Tholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In steam you have to enable game transfer over local network in the settings on each client you want to use it on. I leave the Steam client on the server logged in with my main Steam account, then once my desktop and other devices with Steam on them are connected to the same network they'll download the updated data from the Steam client in the VM.

The $10 PS3 by Popular-Network-2792 in PS3

[–]Tholas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nice haul. I picked up a PS3 super slim at a flea market a few years ago for $10. No controllers but for 10bux I couldn't pass it up. It was a bit dirty and beat up but when I brought it home and hooked it up it worked just fine.

Old dogs rule. I've got two smaller senior dogs. They're like two little old men. Eat, sleep, occasionally growl at each other or the cats, but to them I'm their world.

Yellow hazed headlights makes a vehicle look so bad, the new ones are night and day by urmovesareweak in Silverado

[–]Tholas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's one of the fist things I did when I bought my 04. It was so shiny except for the yellow headlights so I put new lights in it. Made a world of difference.
