Depends on where you live. I can get an ounce of weed, 28g for you people with better measurement systems, for $22-50 and I have a large variety of strains to choose from.

And you have to disable the two device connection setting on the headphones to use the LDAC codec on them. That threw me for a loop on mine for a bit when I was trying to get it enabled.

LDAC is the highest quality codec you can use on those. I’m not sure if you can do a microphone profile with it. Search your distro’s package manager for ldac and it should give you a package to add it.

Do it. I’ve seen first hand how much treatment can help and have seen it change lives of the people around me for the better.

It has been over 10 years now since Bowie died Jan 10, 2016. Seems like yesterday.

I used to work with a guy who interacted with a Hoa on a relatively regular basis. When he came into the building where she worked he would announce “Where’s that ho at?”. It was pretty hilarious and she thought it was funny too. I miss that guy he passed away last year, unfortunately.

I ran Debian as my main OS for years around 2005-2010 or so. If you run the testing branch it gets you pretty new stuff. Just don’t run the testing branch for a few months after they do a stable release as that’s when all the big breaking changes take place. Also, Trixie is still relatively new and has a new enough kernel to make most GPU stuff work well. If you need a newer kernel it’s not too difficult to build a new one and use that so you can get fresher amdgpu modules, for example.

ADHD 2.0 is great. I read it recently and recommended it to my wife and she liked it a lot too. It had a lot of interesting details that I hadn’t considered previously.

I have a Boox Page and absolutely love it. I can run Libby directly on it so getting new books from the library is a piece of cake. I use it daily and have had no real issues with it.

Control is SO GOOD I felt exactly the same way. I just finished Alan Wake and I’m now playing Alan Wake 2 and would highly recommend them both if you enjoyed control. Alan Wake 2 has some tie-ins with the Control story too.

I do a lot of road cycling and yesterday there were a lot more runners out than I usually see. It should taper off in a week or so.

How the mighty have fallen. 20 years ago Tom’s and Anandtech were amazing.

All my jobs back to 2002 until now I have had full authority to run any OS I like on my work computer. I’ve run nothing but Linux on all my work machines and I have convinced many coworkers to do the same.

Unreal Tournament is so good. I wish it had more assault maps out of the box.

100% this. Runs great on my Ryzen 5950x with 6900xt. Also, it’s a great game to play with my kids to teach them how to use a controller, how to navigate using a map, and it’s a great game to use while teaching them to read. I’ll sit with them and narrate the text in the game and after a while they pick it up and are able to read the text themselves.

Samsung appliances have been like this for a while. I got a Samsung dryer in 2015 and it is by far the biggest piece of crap I have ever used. Thankfully I’m good at repairing appliances but this was a next level piece of crap. It was constantly wearing out drum rollers, belts, belt tensioners, and other parts. I was having to repair it almost on a yearly basis. I ended up just stocking a bunch of parts in a cabinet in the laundry room so when it failed I was able to fix it the same day. There are some 3rd party parts kids where they provide upgraded parts that seem to last longer. The drum rollers and belt tensioner pulley use low quality bushings that I upgraded to a 3rd party ball bearing parts and that made a big difference in reliability. I gave it to my mom and warned her about the issues with it and stocked her up on parts so anytime she has an issue she calls me and I can repair it the same day. Thankfully it’s not too difficult to work on.

A friend of mine got an entire Samsung appliance package and he dreads that decision every day. He hates his fridge, dishwasher, washer, and dryer.

Years ago I got two Bosch dishwashers and those have been great. Only minor repairs like replacement spray arms and a replacement rack glide have been needed on those. Otherwise they have been solid units and have fantastic performance.

A few years ago I got a GE combo washer/heat pump unit and it is definitely more convenient than separate units but it does have some flaws. The drain pump filter needs more maintenance than a typical unit. Some of the gunk gets past the drain filter and has caused the drain pump to clog. The dryer filter lets some lint past which causes the evaporator coil to clog somewhat over time. Cleaning the evaporator is difficult as access is quite limited so I had to buy some special long reach cleaning brushes and vacuum attachments. Sometimes the door doesn’t unlock when it’s supposed to because of a firmware issue. And lastly it causes more wrinkles in clothes than a conventional dryer.

And use CEPH as your filesystem.

This was a tough one for me. One thing that helped was always having nail clippers and a file at my desk at home and work. Any time I felt the urge to bite a nail I would use the clippers and file instead. Over time I have been able to taper down the biting quite a lot and now I’m to the point where I can grow my nails out. The ring fingers are by far the toughest to quit as they’re the most satisfying ones to bite. ADHD medication also helped.

I can relate. I have 96 GB of RAM in my computer.

How is the modding on it these days? I have a modded one from a long time ago and I did a modded firmware on the dvd drive in the 360 so it would ignore protections and another mod on a Liteon dvd burner in an old Windows XP computer for writing the games.
