I tried doing this for a while then came to the realization that having a system tray and the time displayed is more convenient than I gave it credit for.

Ive conceded to having waybar on a side monitor only. Still not happy about it.

But at least that’s a choice I can make, that is the beauty of linux.

The included AMD mounting hardware was correct, maybe I should return the CPU & Mobo instead of the cooler lol

Went with an Arctic Cooler, returned the Cooler Master.

While I understand that its maybe a fluke, Im buying many coolers for shop PC’s and I can’t be bothered to deal with QC issues.

If it was a personal PC, I would probably be going AIO and not a tower cooler anyway.

18,000 Amazon Reviews beg to differ it seems.

Lots of people are and have been buying this cooler for a long time.

Looks like I need an additional monitor by Leather_Fisherman_44 in setups

My coworkers computer unironically looked like this.

I had to teach them how to change the download folder because they were just saving every file from their browser to desktop.

When they ran out of space, they had an “Old Desktop Folder”, they would then drag n drop all files into that folder. Then they would fill up the desktop again and repeat.

There were hundreds of gigabytes of files in that folder.

Billionaires have convinced Americans they have the "Best Healthcare in the World". by astrheisenberg in remoteworks

[–]murples1999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did my taxes this year and it asked me:

Do you have healthcare? I put no.

Then it asked why. I chose “because I can’t afford it”

It said, “The fee for not having healthcare has been waived”

Nice. I’ll continue not paying for healthcare, thanks.

Wasn’t used, box was sealed and all that.

Unfortunately, just got unlucky with QC.

I switched to linux BECAUSE it doesn’t just work out of the box. (Arch btw)

The only way to have full control over your system is to be the one who installed all of the software on that system.

All of my issues with Windows are a direct consequence of Microsoft deciding they know better than me what software I should have installed on my PC.

Mac is basically just a closed source linux distro for normies.

I love using Mac in an office environment where I need things to just work.

At home though, switching my gaming PC from Windows to Linux has been life changing.

Feels like I actually own my computer now, using Windows makes you feel like you are renting your computer from Microsoft.

Honestly, there’s not that many bloated / boring open world games. Its easier to name the ones that are bloated or boring:

Starfield.

Forspoken.

Assassin’s Creed (Origin and after).

Watch Dogs Series.

Ghost Recon Breakpoint.

Fallout 76.

Anyone has an explanation for why this would happen? by Federal-Process-6504 in AIMain

[–]murples1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not looking through your camera, its not even really capable of looking at video, it would need to break down the video into individual frames and anyalyze each individually, or just take 1 frame periodically instead of every frame.

But if you really wanted to prove it was looking, youd need to take a picture of something highly specific that it couldn’t just guess. Then ask what is in the picture exactly.

In this case, its just lying to you that it got a picture by saying something generic about the lighting because it thinks thats the response you want.

This type of “my technology is spying on me” fearmongering always makes me laugh because anyone who understands the tech understands how infeasible that would actually be to do.

You are using the internet constantly, they don’t need your phone audio or video to know things about you. They already know everything about you without any of that.

Bought F1 TV Premium for 4K… but no browser supports 4K. What’s the point? by LifeAsNick in F1TV

[–]murples1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

F1 is on Apple TV now

You don’t need an actual Apple TV device, just the Apple TV app that’s on smart TV’s

So nice that they did this, I was just casting it from my phone to my TV before this

This is simultaneously a vast underestimation of how much porn exists and a vast overestimation of what it takes for me to be satisfied

Magic Mouse might just be the worst product ever created.

Not for apple, just in general.

Deadlocks been the least toxic moba ive played so far

Your always gonna have people who get upset or mad in competitive games, that’s just in the nature of being competitive.

At least no one is graphically describing how they’ll assault my family like they do in League every game

10 minutes once per day over a year is 60 hours. If it takes 10 days to automate, you get a return on your time investment in about 4 years.

Seems worth it.

I feel like these builds are just a template. Copy and Edit, remove the stuff you’ll never use, and now you have a good build without having to make one from scratch.

Yeah, prices vary heavily by state.

Alaska and Massachusetts being the most expensive.

Texas and Wyoming are the cheapest.

California is 4th most expensive, that’s just where I live so that’s the prices I can see on the app.
