- Comment on Mount an ISO in Linux? 6 days ago:
I use the built in mount commend, personally.
- Comment on What are the limits to masked so called ICE agents? Are they just let off the hook and disobey laws while not identifying themselves? Why can't I be in the right by them stopping me first and shoot? 1 week ago:
Your civil state laws are still intact depending on the state, but a lot of this is the logical extremist conclusion of the patriot act and qualified immunity precedence, which is to say police have been elevated to a degree higher than that of a citizen with less responsibility than a citizen at the same time. Lazy politicians love the executive and we’ve had nothing but lazy majority politicians for a long time. It will not be easy to purge everyone that needs to go in order to fix this shitpile.
- Comment on How do I feel comfortable/safe going outside by myself after being so used to have parent(s) be with me outside most of my life? 1 week ago:
If you truly haven’t had exposure then really all there is to it is doing it and seeing that it’s okay. I wouldn’t want you to route through dangerous neighborhoods or near an ICE facility entrance or anything, but areas you’re familiar with visiting with your parents that aren’t too far away should be easy targets to talk to and get value from the independence traveling on your own affords you. It should be pretty motivating in itself to no longer have to run on other people’s schedules once you experience it.

2.2 wax released in late 2023. This account is posting old crap
- Comment on Same sh!t different hat 1 week ago:
This is an AI slop advertisement widely shown using a variety of celebrities, ironically including Clint Eastwood, who’s a nutjob.
- Comment on The right FUCKING time to get TWO ram sticks damaged 2 weeks ago:
Try and single out the cpu cache with cache less mode. 2 sticks is a weird issue if timing didn’t slip on the memory controller or overvoltage was applied.
- Comment on My friend is buying a new PC and he is deciding between air cooler and AIO, which should be get? 2 weeks ago:
Rule of thumb is to use the tdp and at least try to cover that with the thermal rating. 120w is your tdp and that is either a beefy air cooler or a multifan aio. These cpus do run hot but it’s by design to some extent. My tdp is 150 in the same series with a rating of 170 on the aio. Still goes up to 90 when stressed.
- Comment on Is there a word or (concise) phrase to describe the paradox of sharing something (like a website) that you don't like, but because you're sharing it you're tacitly helping it? 5 weeks ago:
A good example of this is the stock portfolios that allow you to mimic Nancy Pelosi’s investments. By seconding every decision she makes it directly boosts every stock she buys.
I’d just call it misguided.
- Comment on Why make 250GB m.2 disks instead of 1TB 5 weeks ago:
Yes. NAND is also quite expensive and is the main difference between the two. Also for a 2230 size it’s significantly more compact than a 2280, so you’ll find bigger price differences on small form factor drives than large form factor.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
I mean, if you’ve played everquest 1 I feel like you’ve already hit the lore duration jackpot. It’s also more complex than most by far if you include classes that take a lot of skill to play well. Big difference between skilled and unskilled players for sure
- Comment on I just learned 37% of Americans fear vaccinating their dog will cause the dog to develop autism. 😐 5 weeks ago:
Hopefully just survivors of the lead epidemic.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Part of maturing as someone who insists on solutions when confronted with complaints from others is acknowledging that those complaints aren’t necessarily put out there to be solved, and sometimes they just want to let you know they’re unhappy to lower the expectations of them for a while or to vent. If all they want is to be left alone or vent, insisting on solutions is akin to criticism when they need it the least.
- Comment on Why isint lemmy more popular? 1 month ago:
To the biggest degree it’s comfort elsewhere and numbers attracting numbers. To a smaller but still substantial degree it’s the same reason the top 3 phone brands have less customization and a more plug and play experience than rooted phones. It solves a huge amount of the problems with Reddit, but reddit is simpler to join, simpler to understand, feels more secure, and has so many communities and active users that even inactive communities can look active by how many people mistakenly post there.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Depends on the OS. They can be chopped down by removing windows aero / transparency features among some other memory hogs, plus if it has an nvme then virtual memory can do some fast enough heavy lifting. That being said, I think the last OS Microsoft made that could run functionally on 4gb without significant virtual memory useage is Windows 8 and I wouldn’t wish that experience on you, nor recommend it for security reasons. If you use Linux you probably won’t need to upgrade for a long while with that easy workload.
My pi 5 acts like a normal decent computer on Linux builds but windows would crunch it.
- Comment on Black printhead was clogged. I replace it and now the color printhead is completely missing 1 month ago:
It may not be within your control, but laser printers are infinitely more reliable for small batch printing.
- Comment on 4 leaky tires on the same rental, overfilled to compensate 1 month ago:
Lol nope, black altima. No doubt they didn’t fix it though, I kinda doubt they have a single mechanic across their entire business. Interestingly in Peurto Rico they have a contract with pep boys to fix their cars so you never have to return them to the station. When the only one we ever saw was in San Juan that was appreciated.
- Comment on 4 leaky tires on the same rental, overfilled to compensate 1 month ago:
Yikes, I wouldn’t drive that either
- Comment on Busted box inside of a pristine Amazon box 1 month ago:
I’m getting better at it. Unfortunately still end up getting a lot drop shipped from them.
- Comment on Busted box inside of a pristine Amazon box 1 month ago:
Lol I just found it funny. I know a few people, mostly people from Mexico, that prefer instant. It’s weird but all the power to ya. The only crappy thing about it is that it’s harder to avoid nesco and similarly evil companies when you do that.
- Comment on 4 leaky tires on the same rental, overfilled to compensate 1 month ago:
All you really can do. They’ll usually say they don’t have one and you’ll just have to call around. Big headache overall
- Comment on 4 leaky tires on the same rental, overfilled to compensate 1 month ago:
Some of these newer alloy wheels are harder to mount. If you let them know there’s a history of leaks on that tire they may apply tar to the rim which can go a long way. My car has had a lot of issues on one tire until I found the right mechanics, ironically they were also the cheapest (small business who specialize in used tires). Later after getting new tires the problem went away without the tar, so I think it comes down to surface prep.
- Comment on Busted box inside of a pristine Amazon box 1 month ago:
Maybe I’m snobbish, but instant vs drip vs French press vs americano all taste different and Americano is so much better it was this or a bialetti moka express. My wife said she’d never use the stove top one and I’ve made over 10,000 espresso shots so far, so I’d wager I would have eventually caved in and bought a super automatic anyways. It may have paid for itself in electricity tbh.

- Comment on Annoying dark pattern where no means maybe later 1 month ago:
It’s very telling that despite changing to the “settings” menu for user settings, they’ve still got links to the old menus 10+ years later. I think the powertoys community has done more windows feature adds than Microsoft has in the last 20 years.
- Comment on If Microsoft ended Windows 10 support, why is it still getting updates like every other day? 2 months ago:
Just going out on a limb, but with windows 11 being so similar to 10, it would make sense to continue to port updates over to 10 that are fully compatible. That being said, feature updates are over.
- Comment on Is re-visiting a place of trauma a good idea? Have anyone done it? 2 months ago:
I know most internet people are ready to offer psychological advice at the drop of a hat, but this is really a question for a therapist because every situation is different and we don’t know your struggles even close to enough to speculate.
This doesn’t seem like something to rush into, personally.
- Comment on Would it be correct to say that enshittification is the physical manifestation of the economic ai bubble bursting? 2 months ago:
Definitely a symptom, not the cause or the singular cause. It’s very telling that everyone could see that AI, like robotics, was instead of being a boon for workers having to work less hard, obviously a harbinger of mass layoffs. People understand this system and know the ones in charge of its effects hate us and want us to die.
- Comment on Help figuring out my pressure washer? 2 months ago:
Probably worth a warm soap soak or maybe vinegar treatment to reduce any calcium build up in the head. Electrical-wise you could bypass the circuit to power the motor and see if it spins okay with either a variac or a variable dc power supply depending on what motor it is. If it still stalls then could check brushes/any gearing jammed up. If it doesn’t stall then I suspect a overcurrent or thermal protection circuit is triggering. Could be corrosion on the board, a heatsink coming loose, or simply a jam you can’t see. Lots of possibilities, but people who work specifically on these would know more about the most likely things.
- Comment on Richest American to FAFO? 2 months ago:
Brian Thompson and Alex Jones are the only example of a rich people falling from grace because of people in a different class that I can think of. Most examples like Elizabeth got clapped because they played class warfare tactics against their own team. Grifting is only allowed against the poor, otherwise it’s called securities fraud.
