Kinda surprised it wasn’t a bil, it’s a big game
- Comment on Trust the process! 4 days ago:
I kinda have meals like, months or a couple years at a time, then just stop having it entirely. But during that time, same breakfast every single day is fine.
- Comment on Which one are you? 2 weeks ago:
Full 900w every time, because that’s what the package asks for. Except when it asks for 1000w.
- Comment on Anon's PC works 2 weeks ago:
High end gaming laptops are about a 5 year cycle, presuming you want everything ultra or high settings.
If you don’t care, my old laptop with a 7700k and a 1070 still runs almost anything, just not as well as brand new top end.

- Comment on Anons make the worst game ever 3 weeks ago:
Just started playing rdr 2 and this has been such a pain in the arse.
- Comment on What games have you sunk the most time into? 3 weeks ago:
just pasted a screen snip so hopefully that worked. Not pictured: League of Legends which CS:GO only wishes it could be, Runescape (either of them) which is like a month of playtime, and Minecraft if it counted my hours would be 5 figures at least.

I’m relying on my inheritance from my mum to get a house, but that’s mostly from selling her house, I’m sure her actual savings will be quite low by the time that comes around.
- Comment on yeah, I game on APUs 4 weeks ago:
I spent my early gaming years breaking games to make them run on lower than minimum settings so I could maybe get 15fps.
Now I’m a performance snob and get annoyed seeing it dip under 100 at 4k

I live in Australia, 7 figures mostly won’t cut it for a life of not working either. 10m will cover it almost anywhere though

Recently saw a comic about a ‘shit shot Sally’, characters wondering why they had to be concerned if she’s a shit shot.

- Comment on When did browsers start being able to remember your previous session. 1 month ago:
Everything important with the exception of a single email address that probably can’t do that much damage anyway is auto logged out. My bank, being only 90% fucking stupid forces a logout after 5minutrs of inactivity on their web portal.
It’s be annoying to reset all my passwords, that’s about it.

You might be surprised how much thermite won’t be impressive here. Napalm sure, sticky fire everywhere. Thermite is hard to put everywhere and really doesn’t want to light. Hard enough I’m not sure I have anything in my house that could, although idk how hot a lithium fire gets. Probably not even close.
- Comment on My brothers Chuwi laptop had major problems. Now he got a wal-mart gift card for the price he paid for the Chuwi. He is eyeing an HP laptop with 256gb ssd. Is that the same as a regular harddrive? 1 month ago:
Can confirm, current high end laptop has taken a beating into walls doors and floors, minor body damage with scraped plastic is the only problem. Hardware is surprisingly resilient

This is on C/nostupudquestions though so it gets a pass

I got sick of being careful and definitely got banned, but it wasn’t hard to fake well as long as you are patient

Not sure how they’ll manage the straight up teleportation I used to do. Live rural, definitely went to the beach 100km away daily lmao.

- Comment on Anon loves proprietary tech 2 months ago:
I have a trash internet connection so I just play whack-a-mole with internet privileges. Windows update? No. NVIDIA? Not a chance. Google? How is that even on my computer? But also nah.
Turns out most things use fuck all resources without internet

- Comment on Washer estimated "1 minute left", took 13 minutes to finish 2 months ago:
Mine has no idea what the fuck time even is. 1 minute almost never shows up, normally it stops at 4 minutes left. But 4 minutes doesnt mean it’s nearly done, it might be about to pop this very second but also half an hour seems like a good time.
I’ll put the fucker on for a 30 minute cycle, have a shower, get dressed and come back to 29 minutes. Idk why it even bothers with a timer if it’s literally never accurate.
- Comment on why do our noses & anuses think different types of paper are softest? 2 months ago:
When I got my key stuck in the ignition I turned it hard enough the metal part of the key twisted a lot. At least it didn’t damage anything not already broken.
I’ve worked on my own car 4 times, started 1 fire and 1 almost fire.
I’ve stopped working on my own car now for related reasons lmao

Presuming any kind of skill. Some of us are the kind of idiot that makes cotton wool dangerous.
- Comment on No excuse 2 months ago:
Either way I’m blind if there’s a big fucker next to me at the start, and it’s about 1/5th of the car moved to see either way. I guess that’s car dependant though, it’s only my direct rear visibility that sucks and sideways back is fine but I’ve definitely been in cars where trying to see what’s next to you and a bit back is hard.
- Comment on No excuse 2 months ago:
Australian, I actually took a photo to show my point today. Technically didn’t reverse back because it’s back to back parks and you can drive through the first to be in the second, but same end result.

Sorry about it being a discord link, that’s just the most convenient thing for me right now as apparently I can’t just upload the image to the comment. Or I just don’t know how, either way. Can’t see shit to my left, I just happened to know there wasn’t anyone coming from when I got in the car, but if I didn’t it would be a massive pain in the arse despite leaving the park forwards.
- Comment on Literally Nineteen Eighty-Four 2 months ago:
So is 999%
And I’ve just learned percent is under two layers of keyboard menus so that’s just fantastic.
- Comment on No excuse 2 months ago:
We must have different parks, if there’s a car next to me regardless of facing forwards or back, I can’t see shit til I’m half out the park anyway. Part of that is most cars being twice the height of my previously normal sized car I guess, so I can’t see through their windows anymore.
- Comment on No excuse 2 months ago:
Significantly less turning going in forwards, with the exception of parallel parking where both are pretty even, but some people see you pass a park and go right up your arse even though you wanted to back in.
Also car has great visibility forward and fuck all backwards, rear view mirror is like double the size of the rear window (in the reflection, not side by side).
