Im working my way up intensity to build an immunity. I’m all the way to class IV indirect. Hoping to achieve direct by the next eclipse so I don’t need my Raybans.

That’s a great midrange/budget rig!
Looking at OP’s link it’s still twice the cost though, and given their gaming requirements it may be overkill.
I would agree if space, portability, and modularity aren’t factors then your build is a very good suggestion.

The cool houses hand out full sized armor. Why wouldn’t you want your kid to get a reliable, survivable, effective, and economical combat vehicle? It goes under 35mph so you don’t need a license. Let the kids have fun fighting Nazis!

All the solar system matter contributes to an object’s orbital center but that’s constantly moving as the system moves.
I think (?) most planets have their barycenter inside the sun’s surface
The gravitational pull of system matter pales in comparison to the sun so you don’t need to consider it unless you’re navigating satellites.
You can try KSP (Vanilla) versus Kopernicus mod if you want to feel the difference.

Since I’ve moved farther north I cant imagine being wet and 3°C/37F all winter. -6°C/19F feels much warmer. Doesn’t exactly suck the heat from your bones. Still, PNW in winter is a mood and I kind of miss it even if it is shit sometimes.
- Comment on winter fans 1 week ago:
All the drawbacks of winter with few of the benefits. PNW has a million other reasons why it’s rad tho.

I actually get summer depression if it’s too hot and doesn’t rain for a long time.

While microsoft also plays in the quarter to quarter economic BS they still have long term planning.
It’s precisely because they have a monopoly on enterprise class software that they could pull this off. That’s why the shift in euro-gov agencies to linux is such a big deal. They’re already have windows insider which requires an azure sub and updates as a service which means they already use the threat of “security risks” to force companies to subscribe to azure.
I’m suggesting that they’re going to do what they’ve said they want to do.
The biggest motivation they have to keep individual licenses OTP is it gets people used to the ecosystem (customer capture) and they’re massively profiting on all of
yourthat data. - Comment on How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027) 2 weeks ago:
They certainly wouldn’t roll it out overnight but they’ve had their long term targets on OS as a service since Windows 8 and these things tend to come bundled.

I used to just idle when traffic moved. Slowed down way before i was even close to the car ahead. Played a game where i was trying to move at a constant speed or max fuel econ. Much less stressful to always be moving than gas/brake every 10s, even if you’re moving 5mph.
Really helps to look 3-4 cars ahead for brake lights.

- Comment on Modern Windows in a nutshell 3 weeks ago:
Good arguments for any given program, just hard to imagine they’re still valid for a clock. There’s no other example i can’t think of that a clock has noticeable startup delay or even update time. In the most charitable wording this is exceptional, a unique example amongst the broadest class of programs.
I now realize it’s probably not worth attempting to convince me to not be cynical, i’m having as much trouble as OP with this lol. Thanks for your thoughts though.

- Comment on Modern Windows in a nutshell 3 weeks ago:
Yeah but that shouldn’t be so data or read/write intensive that you need an entire splash. Should take less than a second on any hardware capable of running w11.
Is it just doing some weird backend patching to make it compatible with the rest of windows somehow?

Nah, worms/proteins and all. Varies in density over long periods of time(3-6mo) between never noticing it and it being slightly annoying.
Wiki says it’s not uncommon even at young ages.

That’s the shape. But it’s constantly oscillating and the colors shifting rapidly.
Vision gets obscured but for me my visual processing/reasoning gets cloudy too. I can still navigate the world but finding a door handle is difficult.
I get sore behind my eyes after and real tired. Happened a few times in the last couple years, anxiety I think.
Youtube mostly has classix migraine aura but this is close enough if you imagine the zigzag image.

I’ve seen these since at least the time i developed long term memory as a small child.
