I mean the posts here are self-selecting.

***talking SE, arguing about every update patch, complaining about <content>, a smattering of common sense from the wise-folk - That's you Chanti - and the occasional lost PS lamb here to preach about their deity.

So the usual.

We'd all get downvoted and reported to oblivion on any actual social media.

There aren't enough posts for an algorithm to curate, either. 11 threads bumped in the last 24 hours, 9 are already on FP.

Trying to picture an algorithm here reading all of our posts and then organizing the home page forum listings based on what it thinks we could each be most likely to click, oh lordy.
What if I told you mods already do that by steering the topics to certain directions

Discord updated their ToS today/last few days, if you disagree you can no longer use the service. If you agree you are allowing them to use everything you have ever posted on it for AI training or whatever they want.

So if you were writing a book, store personal artwork on it or have tech data/code on there they can use it for AI training.

Saul and Bernie meet on the sidewalk. Saul asks Bernie "How's business?"

"Business is TERRIBLE! I am loosing money hand over fist. With every transaction I am taking food from the mouths of my wife and children. Honestly, if it weren't for volume I don't know what I would do."


This is the kind of Jewish joke that Jewish comedians used to tell Jewish audiences in the Borsch Belt and Miami Beach.

The how's business leadin has maybe hundreds of jokes and in every last one of them business is never, ever good.

Are you jewish by chance? Because patients are always confused when I answer the phone and tell them my name, no one really hears Hebrew names anymore and act like Josiah is the most complex 100 syllable name on the planet
Yes. I think I have mentioned this before but it may have been in the heyday of P&R.

And then there are Catholic names. Especially Latin American Catholic names which can be 10 or 15 names long.

Trying to cut streaming services cold turkey and I'm going to need more drives to pirate more TV shows. Like I have my stuff but the kid really likes some trash shows that go on far too long.

Playing FFT again on ps5 and thought I would be more excited. But really its the same game as always with barely updated visuals, the hardmode seems to literally just be them adding more damage, annoyingly, to mages and ranged characters. Then they added that horrid and tired lame brit accent to every single character. Just to remove the additional jobs and content... lame honestly, and it would have been nice to do online stuff now that its advanced a lot more since psp days. Guess they fooled me into rebuying the same game. Two more days to Digimon story

Bad news: a storage setup isnt overly cheap, electricity costs too

Good news: you never have to see the words "we are removing this from our library and you'll never be able to watch it again"

More good news: you dont need 8 gorillion subscription services to watch what you want.

I'm so out of the loop. I pay zero attention to the news and I've been off all social media since 2019. This forum is my contact to the outside world.... God help me.

I always just assumed peoples dislike of Musk was because of Twitter, DOGE, and Trump. Musk was the GD hero of the left back in 2018, then all of the sudden he was the villian.

I hate this idea that anybody who doesn't think like you is the enemy. It's so toxic and we need to be able to discuss our disagreements, not silence/cancel/kill over them.

Re: Elon, it wasn't all of a sudden. He made a lot of deliberate choices that make him openly and outwardly appear as a cancer on a large part of society.

Also, you can't openly admit to being out of the loop for 6 years and then complain that others are being intolerant of your own willful ignorance.

Not you specifically Draylo, but there's a very fine line between having a stupid, uninformed opinions and being a load that your mother should have swallowed. If you find your opinion isn't being readily accepted, try to come from the approach of learning.

I actually agree with you wholeheartedly here. Everything about modern gaming is a shameless, cash grab. It's disgusting.

Anyway, bring on the giant meteor! Everything sucks in the USA.

Tell me more or DM me. I'm curious what you chose for your storage setup. (Synology or some OpenNAS home build? Hardware vs Software RAID? Which disks/SSDs did you use? I could ask about 50 questions on this topic but my home lab is outdated).

I think funny while watching a programming language tutorial, the tutor bashes about commenting, and saying you can defend commenting your code and still he would laugh at you

Ok, I kinda agree with him, because maintaining the code is already a challenge, maintaining comments just double down the effort.

But the very first thing he does when he is actually writing code? Commenting stuffs!

Yeah, right
