Funny thing is, I don't own a printer, so when I need documents printed I go to the local library. Their computers run Linux, and of all the times I've gone to get a print done it's been an extremely flawless experience. No fuss, no hassle, just load up the document and print it.

Those goddamn Cloud People launching their attacks on the American way of life! It's an act of war!

My gaming desktop has a 5950x, I can run virtual machines and all games just fine. No reason to upgrade.

My Plex server runs an Intel 10400, handles everything I throw at it just fine. No reason to upgrade.

My home theater PC runs a Ryzen 1700 and again, runs just fine. No reason to upgrade.

I think the newest CPU in my house is either my Steam Deck's APU or the one in my PS5.

Yeah it's basically a convection oven on wheels with the little rinky dink fan installed in them

I've used the old trucks in New Mexico, 140°F in the trucks wasn't uncommon in the summer. It was a relief to get out of it and cool off a bit. AC will be great.

Yes, I'm 6ft and have to hunch over in the back of the LLV, or squat down while re-sorting packages. The inner compartment door is one of the best things about the LLV since the heaters suck and it helps keep the heat in the cabin, plus the ease of access.

I haven't gotten to use one of these new trucks because I'm in a smaller office which will likely be one of the last to get them but they did try and get us the newer Metris vans which are horrible. No inner compartment door so you have to constantly get out and no adjustability to the mail tray.

I've got several flash drives from 2 different brands that are less than 3 years old that are already dying. SanDisk and Lexar, both large brands and they're already losing reliability. Real shame that the older stuff works longer. I really only need them for making Linux bootable drives and they struggle with that.

I'm just an idiot that tinkers with things. I've got a TrueNAS Scale system up and running as network storage and Plex storage. There's about 44TB of raw capacity in there right now, connected via a server SAS card. I just follow tutorials if I don't know what I'm supposed to do.

Gorillaz, Demon Dayz Festival LA in 2018. There was so much going on, so many artists to see and it was a blast. Damon gave it his usual best and the song selection was on point

Good point, launch the frozen demon core into the sun

Hey how about we put those the fuck back where they were and just make pretend viruses in Plague Inc. We don't need to unleash the ancient virus that'll make us shit our own brains out

I already have the desktop app, what difference should this even make? Pointless gatekeeping by the devs
