- Comment on Did the Buldak spicy ramen get less spicy? 2 days ago:
A mix of that and tomato paste, fish oil, garlic, ginger would probably mix things up for you.
- Comment on Did the Buldak spicy ramen get less spicy? 2 days ago:
I’m guessing you could substitute a 2:1 mix of paprika:cayenne.
- Comment on What is the difference between a managed switch and an unmanaged switch? 4 days ago:
Why are they so much more expensive…
Because people will pay that much for those features. You can find managed switches for $60 pretty easily. Until you get into the 48port blades they don’t change a whole lot, so the higher prices are typically from different ways to trick you into paying more.
Some features like line rate, buffers, do add to the cost though.
- Comment on So now that it's that time of year again in the US, what are some tips and tricks for dealing with that one relative who goes on about the same bullshit for hours and won't shut the fuck up? 5 days ago:
Slap your knees , say “whelp…” then stand up and walk away.

Pay up.
- Comment on What's a 'common sense' thing that you genuinely don't understand, and have been too embarrassed to ask about until now? 2 weeks ago:
Honestly how did two wires on old phones power the phone, got it to ring, hold a two-way conversation, and also dial out? Only two wires?!?
I took a class at college on it and the mystery was revealed but I’m still convinced it’s magic.
- Comment on What's a recent game you've tried playing that isn't worth the hype? 2 weeks ago:
I played through fhe whole series thinking the good part was about to happen since there was hype for the game.

Did you take your sunglasses off?
- Comment on Why do each gaming fraction (pc, consoles, mobile) hating each other? 3 weeks ago:
I assumed but without the /s it’s hard to tell on the internet.
8====D~~~[PCs]
- Comment on Why do each gaming fraction (pc, consoles, mobile) hating each other? 3 weeks ago:
Because PC is better than console.
This is exactly why there’s animosity.
I prefer console because: it just works. Devs don’t need to address bugs related to hardware, and they can tune their games for the performance of the console.
I don’t have a lot of free time so knowing it will work within seconds of hitting the power button is worth it to me.
I used to PC game, and still do for a few that are better with a mouse/keyboard.
I don’t hate on anyone that prefers a different gaming system.

It’s the HAM radio of texting.
- Comment on How can a US state block porn? 4 weeks ago:
I agree, but I was answering OPs question on how it would be done and an example of similar tech already in use at scale.
- Comment on How can a US state block porn? 4 weeks ago:
Many US companies have businesses inside China, it’s bad but it’s not impossible. I wouldn’t be surprised if a state actually doesn’t.
- Comment on How can a US state block porn? 4 weeks ago:
- Regulate all traffic sent or received across the state.
- Send traffic through a firewall.
- decrypt traffic
- drop traffic that can’t be decrypted.
Another easier way:
- Regulate ISPs with new state laws.
- require they block porn.
- Sue ISPs that violate the law.
- Comment on ROG Xbox Ally runs better on Linux than the Windows it ships with — new test shows up to 32% higher FPS 4 weeks ago:
Many websites can explain it better than I can from my phone.
- Comment on ROG Xbox Ally runs better on Linux than the Windows it ships with — new test shows up to 32% higher FPS 4 weeks ago:
Not the same.
- Comment on ROG Xbox Ally runs better on Linux than the Windows it ships with — new test shows up to 32% higher FPS 4 weeks ago:
Explorer tabs are 2022h2 so not that recent.
Terminal was 2020 so yeah that’s old.
Quick machine restore was only July.
Autopilot is enterprise provisioning any device from an out of box state. Only mobile devices have this.
Windows hello isn’t mandatory. it’s passwordless security, just like mobile devices.
I don’t believe Linux supports passkey in the os.
- Comment on ROG Xbox Ally runs better on Linux than the Windows it ships with — new test shows up to 32% higher FPS 4 weeks ago:
- Explorer tabs.
- Significant improvements to power management.
- Terminal/ssh
- Quick restore and autopilot
- Notepad tabs Windows hello, passkey support
Not OS, and it’s older now, but powershell is pretty great and vscode is nice.

- Comment on Why are people using the "þ" character? 4 weeks ago:
I thought it was dumb attention seeking and blocked the user that was using it.

Meshtastic.
- Comment on Xbox ditching hardware and exclusive games "makes sense," former Microsoft exec and Blizzard boss says, as "only a moron would continue" making consoles as games go third party 5 weeks ago:
Open source “Xbox”:
- Peg the performance requirements and a utility to verify them.
- Allow devs to build games with those specs in mind.
- filter in the store for games built for that spec.
- Comment on What is an industrial product that, if you could purchase as an investment, you know you could find **local** customers ? 1 month ago:
It was very unique stuff. Could never figure out what would be used for. One batch looked like soft close cabinet door hinges sort of.

Years ago a retired friend of my dad made widgets.
He’d get a like two boxes of parts that needed to be fit together. Sometimes it required simple tools. He never knew what the parts were for.
He’d assemble it and ship it back.
- Comment on How would a wealth tax affect real estate rentals? 1 month ago:
That’s not a bad point. Many options exist to offload property though, including bulldozing a mansion on 10acres that no one is buying and turning it into a housing sub division
- Comment on my back hurts so bad 1 month ago:
Back pain can lead to depression and suicide so don’t let it get out of control if possible.
I keep a stash of drugs that escalate. Tylenol/advil for minimal pain. I’ll go to 400mg advil without much thought.
After that I have some Rx strength naproxen that usually does the trick. After a few days of that, it’s onto my last stash of muscle relaxers and a tele-health call. I’ve only had to get opioids once or twice and I try to avoid them due to how they mess with my guts.
Also be aware that it could be a kidney infection. Usually that pain will be on a single side.
