    Health Problems

    My dermatologist found a a Malignant melanoma on the back of my left ear. I was as concerned as I get about it because it killed all my Dad's siblings (3 brothers & 2 sisters) and my dad had to have his ear cut and lymph nodes removed in 96-97 or so but survived it (mostly by doing what you are...

    Home Improvement

    back in the day, I did a nursing home and the locals used black mastic (looked like roofing tar ) to put on any metal items that were going to penetrate the slab. I was putting rigid metal conduit in the slab but they insisted the concrete would rot the conduit. I have no idea if that is correct...

    I bought the S22 Ultra when it came out , still have it and love it. Daily driver for me. Will say I hardly use the S-Pen.

    OK now you have given me PTSD homie. I liked to lose my mind getting them programmed into oh crap I cannot remember what I used for a guide. It was when windows released a HTPC version. There was basically zero documentation and they were so niche all you could google was 100posts of "oh yeah...

    I use moon reader pro +, bought it on some google app sale years ago for $.99. Personally cannot stand apple ipads but when I've used them I used a reader called I think Marvin? Also don't do audio books. Tired it before but it didn't work for me.

    Yep that's the same one I used. Didn't it sit on the network and any PC could use it? Been a while since I used it and my head has literally been cut open.

    Reacher

    She is a good character. None of the books are works of art but they are good boom boom fight fight type books. Neagley as a character was hardly in them and I'm guessing the only reason she's been in these last 2 seasons at all is 'cuz she tested well. BTW that's how Netflix fucked up Altered...

    Those books any good? Call me a male chauvinist but I don't find female authors to be all that great. They are all wanting to write about love and feelings.

    I saw that today. I made a HTPC back in the day out of one of those. Thing had like 12 tuners and my wife still found a way to run out of channels to record on. It was a great case for it's time . Hey found pics, this is from 2007-2008. Think at one point I had a cablecard tuner as well. That's...

    Bro if you knew what you were going to build with , why didn't you have the pdf of the manual handy already? I usually pop it up on another PC monitor for when I need to look at something. Also made thumb drives with all the drivers/etc ready to rock. I also overplan things so it's probably me.

    I had a , think it's called FETMOCELL back in the day so I could use my Verizon phone in the house. Basically piggybacked on your internet so you had full bars. Not sure what your workplace rules would think of it though. I sold it when we moved from that house.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Finally got fiber to the house installed today. This should be a good thing right? It's been such an unorganized fucking mess that all it's done is piss me off. Last subcontractor that came to do work on my house said the internet provider would be the only people coming in my house (they are...

    One really good thing about this internet provider is it's also the power coop and when you call you don't get bob the AI fuckbot , you get a person who speaks English and has a 90% chance of being white. Other than them being very unorganized with their subcontractors, I've had very little...

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

    Well was having a decent time running through 'remember when' in oblivion. Playing a Kajiit Spellsword or somesuch. Hit first oblivion gate, the leader of the guard is stuck at 'lets charge the courtyard' but we're in the fucking courtyard. Guess they didn't fix the jank with the quests. I...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    When I built this PC in Feb of 24 I had 32GB. Noticed I was running out of physical memory when stacking images for my space photos so I went to 64GB. Initially I just added another 32GB in the 4 open slots and could not get the board to post. Then did 32x2 (same brand same models just double...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Used to happen to me a lot. Fun fact: after 9/11 power company places (even the fucking offices for some dumb ass reason) have metal detectors in them. If I was in one of these offices it was for work, as I was an electrical contractor and I usually had steel toed boots, 5-7 knives, screw...

    Yeah told the wife I'm leaving it as is. It's $99 month for 2gb $79 for 1gb no limit and I don't *think* I have to rent a modem/router. I don't now with their line of site wi-fi. I know there is no contract.

    The Righteous Gemstones

    Hmm looking at this page makes me think I'm wasting my time. I saw Walton Goggins was in this and I started watching S1 this morning. I could not make it through half of EP1. Does it ever get actually funny? FYI I've never really found Danny McBride funny.

    Got a question for you all. Next Monday I'm getting fiber to my house for the 1st time ever. But I *think* I got all excited and signed up for the wrong package. Let me explain; I have an Amplifi Alien router, 2 - 16 port unmanaged switches (Netgear GS116 if it matters) and well too many PC's...

    What do you all use for Money management? I have been using MS Money Sunset edition forever but it's started freaking my video drivers out unless I full screen it. Cheap/free preferred. Open source much preferred.

    You building yourself now? I thought you were doing a prebuilt? If you are DIY, there are places to get a legit license for Win 11 Pro much much cheaper. MSG me if you need a link.

    That fucking magazine (and boot, whichever was first, I think it was boot) I used to so look forward to and it also cost me so damn much money. Internet wasn't a big thing yet so most of my PC news came from it. EDIT: This was my first build from scratch, I thought I knew enough to build one...

    Ok season 1 was good, they had a small hit on their hands on a fledgling streaming network. It got some buzz so the budget went up for S2. Sad to say these are hot garbage. Shit may be more appropiate. S2E1 literally gave me nightmares. That ooga booga bitch with all the shit in her face must...
