I fucking hate moving.

I dropped Black Clover after ep 3. I just couldn't take the yelling any more.

I used SwiftKey for years, but I gave Gboard another try when I got my Pixel XL and have stuck with it. There's no reason to use a keyboard you don't like on Android these days. There's enough quality options nowadays for everyone to find one they like. I've been running the dev preview of 8.1...

But some quality headphones and just add a mic to them. I have some Sennheiser 558s, added a $12 clip on mic and they're the best headset I've ever owned.

Scarcity is definitely part of the problem for the 8 series right now. Thankfully I'm not planning my rebuild until next year. My 2500k is showing it's age.

For pure value, a lot of people are saying that the i5-8400 is surprisingly good for gaming. Only $200, 6 cores (no HT), and while the base clock is only 2.8 GHz, the turbo clock goes up to 4.0 GHz.

Socket fuckery is unfortunately the price you pay for buying Intel. You might want to check out an 8 series CPU since they changed the socket again (the pins and notch on the CPU still line up with the 7 series though) but the only motherboards out for them are the Z370s at the moment.

Agreed. Would be nice to have a version where the back end of the car isn't cropped out.

Found it at Walmart of all places: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Blade-Runner-2049-Movie-Poster-Print-Ryan-Gosling-in-Flying-Car-Size-36-x-24/495377962 Might have to grab one for myself.

That's the one thing that makes the things my Dad asks for a bit less irritating. My grocery bill alone would probably be double what it is because he hasn't figured out how to cook for only 2 people.

The only reason I went through with it is because those people had cancelled their transportation. He's been volunteering my time to other people for my entire life and it's only within the last few years that I've finally gotten through to him to check with me first. He's an extreme extrovert...

About 10 years ago I was picking up my dad at the train station (he has refused to fly since the 80's) and as we are picking up his luggage he says we need to wait for someone before we leave. Turns out that he promised 2 random strangers he met on the train that I would drop them off on the...

Last 2 games by the Wings were just terrible. It's one thing to get beat by a better team, but they just played like shit against the Canucks and Sabres. Finally got Athanasiou signed and he may play tonight. That should at least provide some entertainment. @StoiCynic I hope Sproul works out...

This is the one thing that bugs me about the Pixel 2 vs the 2 XL. Due the huge bezels on the 2, it is only 0.3" narrower and 0.5" shorter than the XL.

Given their history with defending themselves against patent trolls, I don't expect them to settle this out of court. Should be worth keeping an eye on.

I got Office 2013 for about $25 over at Marketplace for Microsoft Software • r/microsoftsoftwareswap

As someone who mostly drives at night, I love roundabouts. Less waiting for lights. They also fixed a 5 way intersection in the area that had been a clusterfuck for decades by turning it in to a roundabout.

The time involved is mostly aging it. Generally you want to age it 6 months minimum, longer is better. Joe's Ancient Orange Mead is a pretty newbie friendly recipe that requires a minimal investment. Ancient Orange Mead (by Joe Mattioli) 1 gallon batch 3 1/2 lbs Clover or your choice honey...

The FML line (Frk, Mantha, Larkin) looked pretty good last night, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Yeah, I wasn't expecting it to get quite that high, though looking around it said that it usually craps out at up to 12%. Used it mainly because that's what the beginner recipe on the mead reddit called for. Will be trying other yeasts on future batches to figure out what I like.

Yep, just a basic cyser and traditional. The cyser tasted like a dry white wine before I bottled it, it was more mellow than I was expecting. That batch only used 2 lbs of honey and added cider to come up to 1 gallon. I was expecting it to be a bit sweeter, but decided against back sweetening...

I started making mead earlier this year. so far just 2 1 gallon batches. The cyser (honey, cider, yeast) has been bottled and is aging. The traditional (honey, water, yeast) has been racked and I'm waiting for it to fully clear before I bottle it. I had bought a 7 gallon fermentation vessel to...

Turns out there is a "remove tab spacing in maximized windows" setting that needed to be checked. Jimmies unrustled.

This is what the tabs look like for me: When the windows is maximized, I end up clicking the gap above the tab most of the time. Very minor thing, but annoying.

Vivaldi seems nice so far, but the tabs not extending to the top of the screen rustles my jimmies. I clicked on a tab several times before I noticed I had to move the mouse down slightly.

Running the same thing here. Planning on finally doing a rebuild next year and I'll probably hold on to the 970 until Nvidia's next gen.

It's so you can use fewer apps to communicate with more people. I don't want to have to use half a dozen apps to communicate with everyone. As a Fi customer, I can still use SMS in hangouts, so I will use hangouts until until that ends. I know it will never happen, but I want to see a single...

Most of my friends are on Android, so we use hangouts. Still use SMS quite a bit, especially when I'm in areas where I have no data connection, but SMS will still go through.

Borderless window is a performance hit normally. Some games handle it worse than others though.

Hospice doesn't mean he has to leave the home. I deal with hospice (mostly the triage nurses) every day at work and they do home care in all the counties we deal with. They don't provide 24/7 aides, but they provide expertise, care planning, getting equipment, meds and that sort of thing. Even...

Damn, you spend more in rent than I earn. He's going unit by unit. I think 4 of the 12 units in the building are done so far. He's currently doing the one next door to mine, which I would have moved in to when it's finished but he's already got a tenant for it. I did this once before 3 years...

So is AMD's strategy going to turn in to this?

Lousy night at work and I and the early morning people are dreading dealing with the coworker who comes in later this morning. Boss heads out of the office for 15 minutes and when he comes back it's Irish coffee for everyone.

Only 3 hours left, but Psychonauts is free on the humble store.

It's really pretty easy to get started. I posted in this thread a few paged back about getting the equipment for my first 1 gallon batches. I just bottled the cyser this week. Drank the leftovers and it's like a dry white wine. Ended up 11.55% ABV. Will be racking the traditional for the first...

Yeah, but that's also in a little town in northern NY where the cost of living isn't that high, but neither are wages. The rent increase would pretty much wipe out my budget for non necessities. For now it's time to throw out all the crap I don't need and prep for moving everything out. At...

I saw that as well and made the same decision. Didn't see it at the theater, but some friends of mine who did ended up liking it.

The price increase is totally justified and I've been spoiled paying just $450 (it's a small 2 room apartment) for the last decade. Moving is just a massive pain in the ass.

Haven't had much time to look yet, but there's not a lot in my price range. Part of my problem is that my rent hasn't been increased in the 10 years I've been at my current place, so the $150 jump in rent would be painful, but possible. A quick look through what's listed on craigslist in my area...

Found out today that I need to be out of my apartment by the end of the year so it can be gutted and renovated. The landlord will hold it for me if I want to come back and will even allow me to store some of my stuff in the building, but rent will be going up. So I either find a new place by...
