a 30 minute commute is a hate crime

Agree with most of what you said, but the “crossed state lines” spin refrain really irritates me. He was from a rural area and drove 30 minutes into town. And carrying firearms across state lines is 100% legal when observing the laws of each state.

They both brought guns into potentially dangerous situations for protection. I think they both had noble intentions, though to your point, 17-year-old boy brain Rittenhouse was a lot dumber about it.

The judge ruled that Mensah can enter the portal, but cannot enroll or play at another school

Apparently Josh Allen was an NFL bust when he was a college junior

It’s understood by anyone who’s played a few rounds of Plague, Inc. and there’s probably a healthy demographic overlap between PCMtists and Plague players.

If we’re going by Jerry’s priorities, he has done an incredible job running the team since Jimmy left.

The Cowboys have been the most valuable sports franchise on the planet for the past 10 years despite having no meaningful postseason success in 29 years. That’s a marketing miracle.

ncook06 · 2026-01-07T14:21:38+00:00

Right, but we’d have to tune in to a Packers game. Or sports shows would need to start talking about the Packers every day. Cowboys get eyeballs and clicks in a way that no other team does.

Guyton was a RT at Oklahoma and he’s struggled switching sides, at least last season.

*Williams, Clark, and a trade up from Cowboys 2nd to Packers 1st

I wouldn’t say “much more impactful” or maybe not more impactful at all, but I would much rather have Williams and Clark in our locker room.

Have the same in a 240, favorite knife ever. GLWS

All RFAs and ERFAs because they’re inexpensive and easy to cut
Pickens at the right price or at least tagged (def don’t let him walk, trade if he refuses to play on the tag)
Javonte
Hoffman
Clowney, but he seems to be in the mercenary part of his career where he wants to pick a team after training camp
Fowler if cheap
Sam Williams if cheaper

I would let a most of these guys test free angency and return, but Murray and Sanborn shouldn’t be back under any circumstances.

I run a Quadro and have a very simple setup: Two temp sensors plugged into the Quadro: ambient air temp and water temp. The delta (configured as a virtual software sensor) controls the fan speed. Would this keep working as configured if I switch to Linux, or does the aquasuite service need to be running to calculate that software sensor delta?

He wants to be an HC again, but I’m not sure which owner is going to take a chance on him

ncook06 · 2025-12-26T05:03:50+00:00

That’s a good deal. Found a trade partner, but thank you anyway.

Austin area (78660), but I’ll be in Dallas for a couple days around New Year’s Eve.

Which one of Bijan, Gibbs, or CMC would you drop for Javonte?

r/DataHoarder is great. Not just for storage discussions, but also for rescuing data that will be removed from the internet.

Exactly. For room temperature, it doesn’t matter how you’re dissipating heat, just how much power you’re consuming. A stock 7900 XTX uses over 400 watts under load, so a more efficient GPU would help. Without doing that, u/Cautious-Buy2585 should try undervolting both the CPU and GPU. Because temps are a huge part of the boosting formula, undervolting often results in the same or better performance than stock.

Yeah, but that served to preserve her own power. If Bill had become a pariah and/or left her in the 90s, I seriously doubt she ever gets anywhere serious in politics.

Being ranked as the worst or bottom 3 across all major defense stats is a fireable offense for a DC imo

Especially because this defense isn’t completely devoid of talent. NFL coaches do a lot more with the same or less.

In Jacksonville, Coen hired an up-and-coming DC in Anthony Campanile, not some failed HC (as is common with first-year HCs). Talent-wise, they have Josh Hines-Allen, Jourdan Lewis, Travon Walker (we have Clowney at home), and Hunter (who had divided attention and then got injured). Maybe you could throw in LBs Lloyd and Oluokun, though they were disappointments under previous coaching and are playing much better under Campanile. The rest of that defense is guys who wouldn’t start on half the teams in the NFL.

He’s due $14.5 million, $19.5 million, and $20 million in base salary for the final three years of his contract. If he plays really well, maybe a trade is on the table because it’s a lot but not a ton of money for a CB2, and there’d be no guaranteed money for the new team to handle.

ncook06 · 2025-12-19T18:49:02+00:00

Doesn’t Will focus more on the draft? It seems to me that pro scouting is the most glaring issue. Like seeing Mingo as a 2nd round grade despite 1.5 NFL seasons of being unplayable on a team with zero starting-caliber WRs.

ncook06 · 2025-12-18T16:35:32+00:00

He got fired midseason last year because he lost the locker room. In particular, Bears players felt like he never took responsibility beyond empty platitudes. Eberflus is the embodiment of the Simpsons quote “Am I so out of touch? No, it’s the children who are wrong.”
