It’s ok, it’s real…now just tell me about the bunnies.

Yep, I will never forget the picture of two fat old men grinning from ear to ear wearing shirts that said “I’d rather be Russian than democrat”.

Damn it, beat me to it. Though I was going to say gamers instead of nerds, though both work.

I’m another timeline…

I’d still like to know how the penguins work the lighters without thumbs.

Thinner (1996)

I know two that I can verify. One is a combat vet who had to kill during a fire fight in Iraq. The other is an outlaw biker who I went to school with, he shot a rival club member and a few years later got caught on a trafficking charge and somehow the police were able to connect him to the murder after his arrest. He’s obviously in prison now. It’s weird to know that after he committed the murder we reconnected and hung out a few times, there I was sitting at a bar laughing and joking with a killer without even knowing it.

My employer is all in on Microsoft, copilot is terrible, it can’t even find a word in a document. Cntl+F find’s it no problem.

Now when I have a tech issue that I need an answer for, the bing AI generally gets me a detailed answer on the first try. But it’s my understanding that bings AI is just a reskined ChatGPT.

$100 is a good deal, though with the batteries you probably paid as much as a new one. But you have extra battery life so win.

It’s simple, just look at the picture and…God damn it.

I’ve had good luck with APC. Just be ready to pay a bit more upfront. But so far in the last 6 or 7 years, I’ve only had to replace one battery.

Yeah I read up on them before I bought, APC seemed like the best. I test them at least once a year and so far I’ve only had to replace one battery. Depending on the application I paid between $80 and $180 for each, but the higher upfront cost seems to have paid off for me at least. I am a sample size of 1, your results may vary.

Yep, the black outs have stopped now but for a while it was a daily occurrence. My NAS took a beating and so did my desktop. I spent a ton on ups’s to make sure that stuff was protected and bonus, I wouldn’t loose connection while on phone calls with government officials while at work… they get pissy when you suddenly drop off.

Seriously, one black out and suddenly you see the need for a UPS. Now my desktop is on a USB, my work laptop and monitors are on a UPS, my homelab is on a UPS, even my modem and router are on a UPS. I just wish I could get a backup generator, but that’s not happening anytime soon.

Thank you, I too was out of the loop.

I get it, I’m on political shit posting subs (or whatever we’re calling them here) and get my fill there, regular shit posting subs should be for everyone. We’re all shit posters down here.

Indeed good sir, that would be quite comical.

1 in the winter, 3 or 18 in the summer, and 20 if it’s really hot.

Two problems with that. 1) I work 3rd shift and would be either asleep or just waking up when they close, and 2) I have worked many retail jobs and the last minute customers were despised and I don’t think I could do that to them knowing how it screwed me over ever time.

But thanks for the idea.

Yeah, I know. But it’s nice to dream…

My Costco is flooded with maga, I would love it if they boycotted the store, I have some shopping to do soon.
