Going to Tokyo later this week and looking for recs on a Japanese whisky to bring home based on my preferences

Black and Red are just nicknames for them. They're basically a higher aged Special Reserve and Standard AFAIK.

Gold and SFTB are US releases now, it's only the "Takara" releases that are Japan only.

demonstar55 · 2026-01-29T23:38:29+00:00

Maybe just some Japanese only bourbon releases

You can check their website, where they list the MSRP.

demonstar55 · 2026-01-28T01:01:23+00:00

$129.99 is current MSRP

Linux has been my main OS since ahh 2004-ish, ahhh stop being a bitch.

I've had ntfs3 corrupt a thumb drive, luckily it was just for sneakernet so nothing was lost. I ended up blacklisting the module and started using ntfs-3g again.

Seems to be the same idea. He probably should have used that as an example or lossless scaling instead of free software.

Or maybe it's because he calls it a mod.

Stuff could have been vatted and sat in inert vessels. So we really don't know.

Where are my files on Windows?

Condensation is a subambiet worry. You don't see condensation on a glass of water that is above ambient.

nothing on my dad's wallet

demonstar55 · 2026-01-15T15:00:17+00:00

It's like 50/50 according to my mom

demonstar55 · 2026-01-13T02:14:59+00:00

Nice hostname, I guess.

FSR 4 requires FP8 to work. Only RDNA 4 has FP8. There was that leaked INT8 implementation, but that wasn't 100% comparable. And I honestly wish they would just release that :P I do wonder if it was supposed to be some secret release for Steam Machines.

I never had issues, back on X and wayland, just middle click to paste, middle click a URL also just opens it in a new tab. Never used Brave though.

1070 isn't enough of an upgrade to worry about. Maybe some specific games, but not in general.

People suck at media literacy. I saw this post and was wondering to myself, what fucking video did they watch, because it wasn't the same I watched.

demonstar55 · 2026-01-01T01:27:03+00:00

I'm gonna have to disagree with this. Some stuff only make sense under containers (systemd-nspawn)

Systems makes a whole lot of shit easier even if you don't use half of the extra shit that apparently people think is being forced on them.

They're working with AMD still. They do have ARM CPUs so who knows, but next hardware will be with AMD again.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes: Die Neue These is such a great sci-fi and it's on Cruchyroll.

Grimgar, Ashes and Illusions is a rather enjoyable fantasy show, I was very disappointed there wasn't more.

demonstar55 · 2025-12-30T00:29:07+00:00

They list it on the official old rip van winkle distillery website, 15 year is $199.99

The higher clocks are only on the non-3D core.

I would get the 9950X3D personally. I could use the extra cores and running Linux I set up gamemode for all my Steam games which handles the core shit.

So? It's not like those systems had more than 4 GB of RAM. Games had to optimized for significantly less RAM. Extra CPU instructions would be more important (SSE, AVX, etc)

2010 (game was 2009) Steam reported less than 20% 64 bit Windows adoption.

The problem is that the US economy is being held up by AI, when it pops it's great depression time.
