Oh, I saw all that. They probably have like, 4 engineers. Im in that industry, in the area. Never heard of them. Just looking at the fixtures and molds and stuff on their websites, I would be willing to bet they do well under $10M a year. Maybe even under $5M. Tiny.

You guys realize this company is tiny, right? The guy stabbed isn’t some rich CEO. He just runs a machine shop. In Muskegon. Which is basically nowhere. Also, the guy is expected to live, and Nathan was arrested in 15 minutes. This story is no comparison, it’s just sad.

That’s the only problem? What about how the blinds are outside of the tub, directing all the water directly to the floor?
- Comment on I bought an HP Laptop with 8gb of Ram...and was suppose to be 256gb SSD. I downloaded one game and its all the way down to 80. Is there any free software to download to help? 1 week ago:
Oh yeah, I don’t think he’s going to be doing that either. I think this is plain old uninstalling pre-installed HP stuff and hoping for the best kind of situation.
Mint is definitely at LEAST as easy to install as Windows, if not easier. As long as all the stuff on his laptop is supported out of the box. I love my Mint install, but last month I spent 40 minutes on github trying to find the right release of the open driver to work with my revision of network adapter, and the amount of work in the terminal was undoubtedly more than somebody asking this question would be comfortable with.

Yeah, I’d say that is too complex as well. I kinda think his best bet is uninstalling whatever HP crap he can, and just hope for the best.

I’m concerned about OP’s ability to upgrade a drive based on the nature of the question. I’d like to also throw in some help with cloning a drive.

Guy is asking if he can download free software to get more ssd space. And while TECHNICALLY Linux does fit the bill for this (and is awesome), I’m willing to wager OP does not have the technical skill set for it at this time.

Something like a hike can be a scary location for a date for him as well. Imagine how scary walking all the way out of the woods by yourself is.

Hey, I have that edition, and I love that book. I also have the later one with John Travolta on the cover, but that one is in much rougher shape since that was the one I had in high school.

Most of the episodes were just fillers between episodes with Jeffrey Combs.
- Comment on Anon holds her bf 2 weeks ago:
I cried the other day, and my wife laughed at me as the tears rolled down my face.
Of course, I was waking up from a colonoscopy and crying about the fact that McDonald’s doesn’t serve Big Macs at 9:30am.
- Comment on I hate when a PC game is ONLY available on Epic Games store 2 weeks ago:
I don’t buy hardware until it drops below a certain price point, so when I finally have a PC capable enough, the game price is coincidentally also lower.
- Comment on Anon is an engineer 2 weeks ago:
Man, I know it. I love talking about work. I love the stuff i design. But I’m pretty much the only one in my office like that, and it’s kind of a bummer.

Well, that’s the dumbest thing I’ve read in a while. I have a Trackman from 2004 that’s still plugging along, no subscription software updates required. If your stuff isn’t shit, it lasts forever anyways.

- Comment on I'm sure everyone remembers 3 weeks ago:
I loved lockdown. I had so much stuff in my chest freezer I got to use, we both lost a bunch of necessary weight due to actually following serving sizes. I beat like, three games in my backlog. Didn’t have to visit anybody, didn’t have to leave the house. I worked from home, and worked enough to pay off my student loans and buy two luxury watches. Plus donate to my alma mater’s fund for students stuck on campus. That was after my month long furlough, that is. Where I spent my time baking and cleaning and painting and every week I trimmed my facial hair into worse and worse creations to annoy my wife. We got an inflatable hot tub. I set up a project in the basement. We got a dog. It was one of the best years of my adult life.
Only downside is my grandma died.
- Comment on Why does it seem most people, mainly conservatives, against Trans people? Unless I am wrong I never heard of one shooting up a school church or whatever. The ones I have met have been pretty cool. 4 weeks ago:
Meh, I don’t know if it’s strictly a hierarchy thing. I think it’s probably more “just” a heteronormative thing. Closed-minded people who don’t like things or people that are different. Fear of difference. I’m just speculating, here.
I can also see the sexual panic aspect.

I need to get my third Turbografx controller working so my daughter can experience a taste of my childhood. Family Dungeon Explorer night.
- Comment on This world is cruel… 4 weeks ago:
I’m one of those people. I’ve never flown, rarely leave my state. My wife wants to travel, but we haven’t yet. I, personally, have no interest in it. Just like sports and most popular movie franchises. I just have no feelings about it at all. It seems like a huge hassle.

Stopping a cat from having pee accidents by pouring bleach in their eyes? That pisses me off. I hate it when people treat pets like actual children.

Oh, interesting. I was not familiar with Bazzite. I have a tiny Dell Optiplex hooked up to my living room TV, I was going to put Linux on there soon anyways. I wonder if that would be a good candidate for Bazzite.
- Comment on Anons discuss PC vs console gaming 5 weeks ago:
Hah, nope it isn’t an Intel. I’m currently fighting with my wife’s old workstation that I’m trying to use as a Linux gaming rig. It has an i7 9700 in it, and it just does not want to run under 82C in game. I replaced the old thermal paste, added two (larger) case fans, and moved the HDD to improve airflow. I can try a better low-profile cooler, but I really don’t know if that’s going to do it either. Short of water cooling, which would mean new case as well, I don’t know what to do.

- Comment on Anons discuss PC vs console gaming 5 weeks ago:
I love Moonlight. I just switched over to Linux and haven’t gotten my Moonlight host set up yet. But it’s on my to-do list. What do you use to stream it? I’m rocking a Powkiddy RGB30. The square screen squishes stuff a little, but it’s pretty cool to run Astroneer on something so tiny.
- Comment on Anons discuss PC vs console gaming 5 weeks ago:
For me, it’s a several hour process. I enjoy the cable management, for one thing. I like to handle each component as carefully as if I’m assembling a nuclear bomb. Idk, it’s a fun therapeutic process that I like to take my time with.
Well, except for the last one I built. Which is basically just crammed in however I could get stuff to fit. Had to bust out the angle grinder for the graphics card to make it in. Had to relocate the hard drive cage. Cable management is just enough so they aren’t rubbing on any fans. I have rubber shims wedged under the Blu-ray drive to prevent rattling in the stupid tool free drive bay. It’s a disaster in there. But it usually doesn’t get over 70C in game, so I’m not going to mess with it.
