Damnit I just got a 9800x3d, guess I’ll be good knowing I can upgrade to whatever gpu comes out that’s in the sweet spot for awhile. I do have a 3070 so not like I’m slumming it, but was really hoping that the 50xx series would be worth it. Guess it’s time to read up on ray tracing and dlss type features since I haven’t done that homework in many years now. Always seemed like Nvidia was better supported but maybe not the big difference it it appears to be. I have gone back and forth over the years anyways.

I bet it’ll be pretty difficult to tell people we saved 1000 times what the contract was worth…

Know in my area of BC our household was asked to sign a petition against this sort of thing. Nope, had my car broken into at this place but I think helping people in incremental steps can work. Showing and providing support with compassion to people may be the help many need, maybe not everyone but nothing works 100% for these programs and I hope there’s more opportunities for people wanting this sort of change.

My favorite way to say Matt Damon for the internal laugh. Also enjoy the story of how the puppet didn’t turn out right so we got what we all laugh at for the Matt Damon puppet.

My close save on (company from graphic) seems to have trouble keeping eggs in stock, plus it’s like $8-9 for free range which I usually try to buy. Their quality (used to be quite orange now more dull, not as yellow as most eggs still) has gone down I hope the chickens are treated better.

You’re not hurting the right people…close enough to a newspaper quote from turd’s term one.

How anyone can think Trump is in it for anyone but himself after his first term is baffling. You only need moderate thinking skills to realize that, which I understand is an issue as well with education.

Oh look more lies from the gang (or semi organized crime group) that took control. Saying they defend people’s free speech while putting down journalists is what I’m getting at. They don’t defend anything but their views and bank accounts, maybe not in that order.

I don’t recall being as sick yearly compared to after COVID hit than before, course I am in my 40s now so I’m sure that factors into it but rarely was I curled up on the couch with a noticeable fever even for other sickness. I’d even venture I rarely had the flu before that, almost never had a fever for a couple days but since then at least once a year I get pretty ill with a decent fever for a few days, sometimes twice a year. For those wondering yes I got my shots and can only imagine how awful it’d be without them.

The part that killed it for me when it came out was it was called the next Star Wars (heck it may have been one article but I grew up in the middle of nowhere, kinda like Luke heh, but it was closer to Hoth than Tatooine), like I can enjoy it fine, actually a favourite, but nowhere near the enjoyment I get out of the original trilogy. Okay I’ll admit the original trilogy has a huge nostalgia factor but you don’t think of that when you’re like 16.

I do think it’s a really fun movie overall, super green.

That’s why I started figuring out beginner courses / tutorials to figure out if I could grasp the basics on something. Though I’m a bit older, so maybe it comes down to being old and not wanting to waste as much time. Least if I don’t do good, I learned something. Did some blender one the other year to figure out some 3d modeling, was fun, then got distracted and haven’t touched it since. Was neat to understand the graphics side of things though.

Or it’s like a kid playing a game and interesting has a slightly different meaning. Yeah all my life forms thrived in harmony in my previous play throughs but this time I’m giving one of the smart ones a fun trait to make them incompatible with anything else to see what happens.

I did have the lid falling off thought when I first saw it though.

I used to quite enjoy the radio stations in Surviving Mars well a couple of them, apparently spent 145 hours in the game total. There may have been a few times it accidentally ran overnight from not closing but for what it was, it was fairly fun. Plus getting to turn Mars green always felt rewarding. I always played with chill locations though, never went for the hard runs, sometimes it’s fun to play like humanity succeeds.

They’ve shown who they are by starting it in the first place. It’s like teaching a child they can win by screaming though, eventually it’ll be the US is invading somewhere…oh Trump gets a back scratch and it’ll be cancelled.

They’ve shown themselves (collectively, not individually as a person) to be boo worthy until they decide to stop being shit disturbers.

I always guessed it was cause he was gen x and just ran with it.

But I try not to think about it too much either, cause then I’d be spending thinking time on something wasteful unlike dissecting Simpsons jokes I’ve heard 50 times, which I find more fulfilling.

That’s not as much of sarcasm as some may think, I love trying to find new ways to interpret even the stupidest jokes if there’s an angle I haven’t considered. There’s usually not many but it passes the time as Bowerick Wowbagger the Infinitely Prolonged would say.

We have Crave owned by Bell Media, of course we don’t really care for our telecom companies either but least I think it’s a Canadian company.

Yeah but a random (non IT especially) probably wouldn’t need to boot from an external device, would they? As for the UEFI changes, a random employee shouldn’t be in the BIOS either I would think.

I’m really curious on those, I don’t do that sort of thing these days so sort of wondering how impactful it could be. Outside of the random person who thinks they should change them but that’s got to be pretty minimal and IT should lock it down anyways.

His last line is one of best of all time. If you don’t remember it, that’s enough reason for a rewatch.

Hope there’s a sea minus minus somewhere for whomever that was.

Time out!
