Huh, I’m going to try shaving my armpits. I’m a smelly guy and I seem to need to use a lot of deodorant to keep it under control.
I like women, femboys and girl cock.

Fuck yes now I can lose 120tb of data and they’ll still refuse to replace the drive despite it being under warranty because apparently 1399235195 bad reads + the drive being unusable isn’t considered broken enough to get a replacement.
When it gets impossible to find tvs that stay out of your way, I’m going to become obsessed with crt monitors. Learning how to maintain them to keep them running literally forever seems like a more achievable goal than doing that same thing with normal unshittified flat-screen tvs.
I hate Java because whenever people make games or performance sensitive applications with it, performance is always complete ass shit. On top of that, it seems I always have to cave in and use Windows because when I’m trying to compile a Java project, there’s some obscure dependency can only be acquired and installed correctly on windows.
Try compiling Freerouting in anything other than Windows for example. It’s a good fucking thing Java apps are cross platform.
Fuck reddit. I always read through the posts on here, I just don’t comment if I have nothing to add.
I want to rent one of those airport mall storefronts and sell parachutes to 737 max customers.
Instead of a regular backpack can I just bring a parachute as my carryon?
Go play any modern indie game. You’ll need at least a 1050ti for it to run well. The graphics are good, sure. Now go play something that runs on an open source 3d engine such as Ogre or irrlicht. Tux Kart is a good example of a modernized open source game and Xonotic gets mentioned a lot too (I don’t know/didn’t research what 3d engine Xonotic uses). You’ll get playable performance even if your gpu is trash and the graphics are actually pretty good. If the game you picked has potato ass shit graphics then congratulations you only need a pc that’s 20 years old or newer to run it. Gpu prices are eating gamers alive and it’s getting to the point where the common person isn’t going to be able to play modern pc games anymore if system requirements in games just keep getting higher and higher. They can’t even figure out how to supply more electricity to graphics cards without the wires melting from all the current. Wtf even is their end game?
If professional game developers don’t start making performance a priority the Linux nerds will start developing games the same way they made foss replacements for all the unfair paid software. I’m tired of buying computer parts. Video game graphics are already as good as they’re going to get (photorealism for fuck sake), they aren’t getting better but system requirements are getting higher. If this trend continues it will radicalize more people into supporting open source projects instead.
I don’t think anyone is putting bitcoin miners in their games. I just think it’s unfair that system requirements for everything seem to be getting higher, gpu prices are always getting higher but the graphics we actually get for it all aren’t even a worth it.
Thank fuck. This won’t be the last attempt at this level of surveillance. Pay attention to open source games because some day things will be so enshittified that avoiding AAA games and only playing regular indie games still won’t be enough.
Open source games never need the same gpu requirements that indie games need, just food for thought. Unity is respectably efficient but it’s no where near as efficient as for example Tux Kart. They really have 3d performance figured out on some of those open source rendering engines.
I am trying to use wifi for “everything”. I know it’s bad but there is no honest to goodness way I can get ethernet to anything except the router and modem. It’s complicated. Even a 60hz ac to ethernet wall plug transceiver has to go through enough breakers and stuff it’s not worth trying.
I forgot which exact router I have but it’s basically the highest end Cisco home router that works with dd wrt. It usually costs $300 on amazon. My internet connection is dsl but I’m not trying to get higher internet speeds, just higher lan speeds.
If my low effort network setup only yields me a maximum of 7mbytes/sec I’m fine with it I just want to be able to get more than 1 meg per second on the one system that needs it the most.
Is jellyfin good? Several years ago I wrote a very basic php search system and then made another php script to generate a clickable list of every video file in a directory. These 2 put together makes a better than nothing media server that I can use with confidence knowing it’s probably really secure and not sending any data to anyone on the internet.
My setups lan transfer speed is slow all the time for reasons beyond my understanding so I have to find a way to fix that first before I can think about changing my media server software anyway. My 1mb/s download/1.2mb/s upload speed on my server and 4-7mb/s for each other pc is good enough to watch some stuff but it really sucks that after overhead and performance losses, that’s all that’s left of my 400mbits/sec wifi connection. I barely even use it and don’t have any non Linux pcs on my network so it’s not like it’s slow due to actual traffic. Router and wifi card manufacturers are scamming us all. Divide any advertizered wireless network speed by 64 and that’s the maximum you can expect in my experience.
Some motherboards in 2024 still don’t work if you put the ram in the wrong ram slots. I ran into that problem on an am5 board recently.
Idk, I just hope the Republicans aren’t successful at putting a stop to current legalization progress. Fucking fascists. Alcohol kills.
Most of my problems are caused by other people being evil. I’d take being the last person on earth over that any day. I wouldn’t live a super long time just because of lack of access to healthcare but I can’t afford that today anyway.
Thanks for the write up.
After weighing my options, I think I’m going to just go with normal printer paper. When I said using normal printer paper would be more than twice as thick, I wasn’t accounting for the fact that I’d be using both sides. So a 500 page ream should equal 1000 double sided pages. So that means the final size using normal printer paper would only be a little thicker instead of more than twice as thick.
I found some newsprint paper on Amazon that might work but I have an ink jet and I’m thinking it’s not going to be worth the hassle considering normal paper isn’t as bad of a choice as previously thought.
I’m going to do a few trial runs before deciding how I’ll actually bind them together and not print all 1000+ pages before learning somethings not going to work. I want to avoid 3 ring binder. Splitting it into sections sounds like the way to go. I’ll experiment with spiral bound. Regular hard cover looks enticing but I’d say that route has a high likelihood of not working out especially with the paper size and quantity I’m dealing with. Maybe I’ll dissect a college textbook and see what’s inside the spine.
Good idea. I can use the failed attempts to wipe my ass with so this method has practically zero waste.
That will cut down on the amount of paper involved but not the thickness of the book. I do plan on printing a bunch of even pages, flipping them around then printing all the odd pages to make it fully double sided. I’ve had success doing that before.
I also have successfully printed booklet style pages before it’s just that I actually want this to have 8.5 x 11 sized pages.
To my server? 4mbytes/sec on a good day. I haven’t reinstalled my os in years so things are getting really fucky. It’s actually a security measure. My shit is so slow that I’d like to think potential cyber attacks would take too long for it to be worth anyone’s time.
It’ll happen some day. There will eventually be “Illegal” wireless transmitting devices that do things such as transmit data over disallowed frequencies, break the token rate speed limit imposed by the fcc (fuck 56k) and illegally use encryption (using data encryption on amateur radio is illegal). When they do start becoming a thing, they’ll be able to transmit data maybe a few miles at up to a megabyte per second (not 1 megabit), or for dozens of miles at a few kilobytes per second. Depending on whether the designers wanted to prioritize speed or distance.
The technology exists to make such wireless transceivers using off the shelf parts available to normal people, there’s just no reason for them to exist. Yet.
