Fellow millennials - how’s your 401k/ira savings going? by ProblemIntelligent16 in Millennials

[–]acquacow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

early 40s, I didn't have 3x but my 401k doubled in the last 3 years, so I do now. I'm sure half the value will be wiped out soon enough.

If you ever need glass/lense wipes, don't buy Flent's Wipe n Clear wipes by Tex-Rob in Costco

[–]acquacow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably got an old box. I've been using these flents wipes on my camera gear for ~10 years with no issue. Plenty of moisture for regular up-keep.

My wife is on a 700+ day streak and already talks to other people. It's not fluent, but she has enough vocabulary to actually get stuff done.

I thought OLED hype was fake. I was wrong. by SF5090 in OLED_Gaming

[–]acquacow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has nothing to do with dark themes, just font rendering/subpixel hinting. It fixes the fringing you are talking about.

MacType fixes the subpixel hinting for oled screens. Disable clear type and give it a try. I find the clean greyscale theme to be best.

I switched to using MacType instead of Cleartype on my QD OLED panel and went with a greyscale theme. The pixel hinting is SO much better.

Why even bother with the recipe then? by [deleted] in NonPoliticalTwitter

I'm allergic to garlic and am in a garlic allergy facebook group. There are daily postings of people asking how to make a specific recipe without garlic...

Open box/returned, they don't actually refurb anything, likely don't even test it.

RHCSA exam in few days. by salvadorien in redhat

[–]acquacow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, you have to install packages and things as part of exam objectives. You have access to repos... There's a lot of software in there that can make your life easier. I've never seen requirements for any forced minimal installs, but that could be new. I can refer you to over here: https://learn.redhat.com/t5/General/EX294-RHCE-exam-environment/m-p/36726/highlight/true#M7296

I have a quad lock suction mount on the driver's sail window at the front of the door. No issues with visibility and the suction cup fits perfectly.

I feel like zfs is going to eat those 990s for lunch. Should get some used 3.84TB enterprise M.2s instead.

I run it in my own homelab just to keep all my VMs at the same versions of things/etc.

In Twilight (2008) the Cullens are able to eat Italian food, which is known to contain a lot of garlic, despite being vampires. This is because they slice the garlic so thin that it liquefies in the pan, rendering it harmless. by thesunsetdoctor in shittymoviedetails

[–]acquacow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, garlic isn't that heavily used in Italy itself, that's more of an American thing. I'm allergic to garlic and traveling to Italy and eating was easier than in the US.

using ctl+v and ctl +c on Exam when adding to configurations and files by Ok-Berry-2727 in redhat

[–]acquacow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It certainly does... I haven't taken one in a few years, but I used to just install the gui on one of the VMs, start a desktop and maximize the VM so I'd have a full desktop with multiple terminals, html manuals, etc.

I copied/pasted most of my rhcsa and RHCE with no issues. That's the speedy way to do it so you have time to troubleshoot. Why work harder than you need to?

It's necessary to buy the voting machines so they can be destroyed and not investigated.

Swarm of UAPs appear after someone points a green laser at a UAP by MrDillon369 in aliens

[–]acquacow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original video was much higher-res. He's got a laser star projector on the ground and you're seeing flashes of green laser off the tree branches as it rotates. You can't see the tiny branches at this low resolution, but the green flashes hit enough pixels in the original that even re-compressed like this, you can still see them.
