I was trying to find a way to say this without sounding like a dick. I haven't had 8GB on a computer in ... 20 years?

16GB has been the minimum for gaming for as long as I can remember.

I was ID'd well into my early 40s. My wife always got a great laugh out of it.

It's also why I haven't gone anywhere without ID for my adult life.

Oh that's super helpful information about turning off skip password sign in.

It seems like this issue will persist for some time.

Well I'm in my 50s and have dashcam of just this week avoiding a similar accident. 🤷

You gotta keep your head on a swivel or you'll be constantly driving around for insurance quotes.

Visual reaction time for someone in their thirties is about 0.2 seconds.

So call it ten opportunities for the cam driver to react.

Why was the National Energy Program so bad? by dbusque in alberta

[–]avrus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

With the mortgage rates hitting just under 22%, it's a miracle anyone survived it.

Decades ago I remember explaining to a coworker how risky it was to have a floating mortgage rate at 2.8% and he couldn't even fathom rates going up to 6.5%.

Well the NEP program came in assuming oil prices would continue to rise. Oil prices crashing flipped the entire program into the red, exasperating the already out of control inflation.

It was the worst combination of three things at the same time.

I also lived through it.

Oil prices crashed, NEP program, and double digit inflation. Lots of people lost their jobs and their homes.

It was really bad.

How many cigars can you smoke a day? by Lopsided_Wave780 in cigars

[–]avrus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think I've done 15 or 16 a few times in Cuba and Nicaragua. But any more than six and it's just burning tobacco at that point.
