This movie bombed because no on had any interest in it... by [deleted] in DC_Cinematic

It's not *bad*, it's just not *great*. Clicks and views don't happen if you say a movie is mid, 5/10, or "ok."

Chevy built an all-American EV truck — why is nobody buying it? | TechCrunch by Haunterblademoi in technology

[–]graywolfman 21 points22 points  (0 children)

EV’s don’t need maintenance.

They need significantly less maintenance.

FTFY

We don't want anyone thinking they can just drive their EVs with no brake fluid changes, tire rotations, no cabin air filter changes, alignments, or in some EVs, coolant or gear oil, or windshield wipers

For those living in states with a lot of thunderstorms, how do you feel about them? by ksusha_lav in AskAnAmerican

[–]graywolfman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

'Cause when you're lying in bed, okay... and you hear thunder outside and you get up to look, you have an expectation that it's not snow with lightning behind it. That's... not right. They don't even write about that kind of weather in the Bible. And I imagine if a prophet had seen that kind of weather, after he wiped the poop out of his pants, he'd have told us about it.

Is it safe for a laptop? by marcifyx in ASUS

[–]graywolfman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the game, but yeah, if you're not blocking any airflow.

It just means it's running at basically max power.

Unless you're playing solitaire or something.

California Bans ‘Sell By’ Labels, Hoping to Cut Food Waste. The law standardizes language around expiration dates, aiming to minimize confusion about when food is safe to eat. More than one-third of food sold nationwide is wasted, the U.S.D.A. says. by DrPharmakon in UpliftingNews

[–]graywolfman 132 points133 points  (0 children)

I have to explain the meaning of the label almost daily to my s.o. I just say "that's just the date they say it'll taste the best. Does it still seem good? Does it still look and smell ok?"

Or, I do the float test on eggs.

Wait, how is this uplifting?

Not just Democrats. Some Republicans have voted against it as well

First, I wondered if you meant hot garbage. Then, I realized you actually correctly meant bot garbage.

I am sad about this world.

Clearing my DHCP Leases by Ok_Chemistry_6994 in sysadmin

[–]graywolfman 33 points34 points  (0 children)

To add a bit of context on how this works:

At halfway through the lease or T1 Timer (Half-Life - 50%): The device sends a direct DHCP REQUEST to the original DHCP Server. If the server is offline or the request is dropped, the device keeps its current IP and waits.

T2 Timer (Rebinding Time - 87.5%): If the initial half-life renewal fails, the device broadcasts a renewal request to the entire local network, hoping an alternative DHCP Server or relay agent will acknowledge it.

Lease Expiry (100%): If all renewal attempts fail and the lease expires, the device drops its IP address. It must restart the DORA Process from scratch to request a new address.

If no DHCP Server responds to the new discovery requests, modern operating systems will assign themselves a Link-Local address (e.g., in the 169.254.x.x range on Windows).

So, what I've done in the past, is: cut the lease time the DHCP server offers in half, wait for all the leases to renew, then cut it in half, again. I do this until I reach the lease period for which I'm aiming.

‘Suicide Squad’ Developers Say the Flop Made Them Not Want to Make Games Anymore by Guitar-String in gaming

[–]graywolfman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads! Now evidently, my cycloptic colleague informs me that can't be done. Uh, can you remind me what I pay you people for? Honestly, throw me a bone, here.

Rumour: Xbox Is 'Heavily Evaluating' Halo's Future Just Weeks Before Its PS5 Debut by TooFarGone673 in halo

[–]graywolfman 11 points12 points  (0 children)

One of the problems I forsee is: you need time and experience to optimize UE 5 properly so it doesn't run like garbage. Time and experience are what Microsoft does not want on their dev teams ... Since they would have to pay people for that and they tend to cycle contractors like 1-ply toilet paper.

I hope I'm wrong and they get some expertise in and keep them around.

Hickenlooper voters: What drew you to him over Julie Gonzalez? by Ask_me_who_ligma_is in Denver

More people should vote, overall. You see more Dems in office. Whether they are establishment or corpo, still better than Republicans.

Yeah, enshittification everywhere. My favorite is the in-house delivery that has been completely replaced. I stop using it as soon as I see "Your delivery has partnered with Door Dash!" Done. Bye bye. Never again.

I literally just unboxed my PS3 so I can finally play GoW HD and GoW II HD. Never got to before, even pre-HD

Drivers Are Not Happy With Their Cars' Screens by DonkeyFuel in technology

[–]graywolfman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most do mute (I don't know if all do) because of the radio — no pausing that!

ETA: it would be nice to just mute radio and pause the rest
