Still high. My niece is married to a guy from north, Louisiana near the MS river and al the farms and a lot of the small town is flooded. The water is rising out of the ground miles away from the levee system. Out of my experience entirely but guessing at that point the only option is to wait...

Crazy is my amateur radio can send a signal literally to the other side of the world if the signal propagation is right and works off a 120v outlet. Of course you can really use a lot more power with an amp to make sure the propagation is right but still crazy compared to a desktop computer...

Need 240v plug to get full wattage. I wonder how many have that in the US near their computer? I don't and have 240v outlets in several places. None near my computer. Maybe when google gets their nuke plants up and running they will get into minaturization for it.

Got new PC in. Mine had Asrock MB and Asrock 9070XT Steel legend. It didn't matter to me and I was sure they buy what they can get cheap in bulk. First time to use Windows 11. Currently installing windows 10 that I had a copy and key for. I don't care if it's not seure, nothing on that computer...

Hmmm. Anybody get hit with this? https://finance.yahoo.com/news/fidelity-website-outage-blocks-users-145852145.html I am not a big trader and most of my porfolio now is in asset protection rather than growth. At the first of the year I sold some (not all) of my Nvidia stock. For one reason...

I've done a number of runs, some I poke around and do quest after quest and I'm not sure I hit 12 in act two but if you watch some bg3 challange runners they do a lot of goofy rule sets so they over level and not unusual for someone to be lvl 9 in act 1. I only have moonrise left on my current...

I'm of the opinion that act 3 should have been broken in two. I didn't not play early acess and to me it seems like they had a lot of content and they had to make sure it all "got in". On explosive stuff I've never really used them, steal a bucnh from goblin camp normally and pick up all I can...

Woo Hoo got an email from Amazon, they found it and tracking shows it to be in the same small town in TX it was for 2 days before it magically showed up in FL. Track doesn't show it arriving or being shipped. I bet it was mis scanned or whatever and it magically showed up. Maybe Monday the box I...

I did get a UPS tracking update one time that said "delayed due to train derailment". I eventually got that package, must have been a later train lol. Amazon has been super vague, which I don't understand why amazon is sending anything at all considering I didn't send them anything first.

Amazon is still sending emails multiple times a day it's still in transit. Tracking shows it hasn't moved at all.

That's what I normally do but I really need to level some. Best kills is overkill. Lined up some smokepoder bombs on the side they mostly come from. Invis arcane archer set them off with a wall of fire scroll. The other side was easy pickings with giant barb. I only took those two. It's kind of...

Played a little with arcane archer. Seems like it is very very good early on. Banishment at lvl 3 and you can do it twice per turn. Rapidly drops off around lvl 6-7 though. Cut off Gales hand. Kind of wish I had a wizard now for the upcoming shadow invasion defending the portal. Of course my...

I may or may not get a new computer with a 9070xt. From Amazon and shipped to my normal address which is a box at a UPS store. Not part of UPS but when it arrives they take any package and set it aside till I pick it up. The package came UPS and got to the town 15 miles away, same town the UPS...

Wait till the checkout person ask if you want a senior citizen discount. Yes please. In the crazy world we live in the same person that ask if you want a senior citizen discount will also have asked minutes before for ID to show you are old enough to buy alcohol.

UPS tracking, your package is in transit and on schedule to be delivered April 28th. You would think they tracking would change automatically to "delayed" when the date has passed.

I ordered this one, still waiting. Not a big gamer, was $1800 when I ordered. I still have and use my work computer since I work at home. It's not top of the line but neither am I. Used tag stripper app for amazon and still get a ginourmous link...

Maybe, but at the current price of oil there's not a lot of "new" exploration going on. They are still producing wells but not mass exploration at oil being $60/brl or less. My segment of industry is backwards. The more the price of oil/gas fall the busier we get with all the extended...

He read the tweet of one guy looking for a job he wanted a place he could work and ydad yada yada AND do his own work on the side. I know the first guy I would hire is someone who also works on the side. Okay it's a thing in my world but just guessing a lot of employes don't want you splitting...

My cousin says their big customer group is muslim which I thought Mexicans considering they are an hour west of Austin but he says muslim.

I have a FB account for myself/business. Maybe once a year or longer I get a message from soneone wanting me to contact them about work. Either someone I did work for in the past or they were referred. I rarely give out my private number as it's one of two I have and I answer it right away. The...

Yeah, I think the way it works as a cleric you get all your pells you can cast at that level. Then you prepare a certain number and once prepared you can cast that spell as long as you have a spell slot for it or upcast it to a higher spell slot. LVL 1 spell so lvl 1 spell slot you chould be...

Leave Saturday for MN. The mayo clinic I went to in FL finally referred me to the main clinic.

Guess it was the Tencent sale that pushed people over the edge?

I hate to say it but the look on his face during streams screams "in over my head" which may be a conversation probem.

I have a guy that comes every so often to do odd things around the property and help with a few cows. Black guy that works full time at the local lumber mill. Probably helps I'm real rural and he grew up with it and he is looking to get away from work at the mill at times. Every day or twice a...

Hotfix today. https://baldursgate3.game/news/hotfix-30-now-live_139 Halfway through a giant barb run. Guess 70 damage hits are no more. Haven't tried it yet. Tavern Brawler no longer adds a damage bonus to Elemental Cleaver's elemental damage in Honour Mode.

Yeah I did a few quick searches for a similar system. Newegg came up a lot, I used to order odds and ends from them but nowdays I most likely would avoid them especially an entire computer. But I'm not very adventerous when it comes to buying stuff.

Just looking at twitch looks like D4 has a new season or whatever they call it. I paid for the game when it came out and never played out. The one stream I watched for a few minutes didn't look that enticing.

The Mississippi river is high apparently at least on the south end. Barge broke free in Baton Rouge and it wound up coming to a stop on top of the levee. I normally cross in Natchez but haven't been in a while. I didn't realise it had been raining thtat much further north.

Yeah I would think for something like a place a short order cook would work needs a fair amount of foot traffic. They may still be popular up north or more urban areas. There is no foot traffic in the south for the most part. More likely to see a place that has special parking spots for dually...

My niece and her son were over and her son who is in the 8th or 9th grade had never heard of a short order cook. Never been super popular here but I've ate at places that had them numerous times.

I haven't opened my computer but I looked through my "stuff" and I had two 8 pin cables for a modular power supply and it's the only conmputer I've one in. More to think about. I looked up the gigabyte 3060ti to be sure and yeah it had a single 8 pin.

I liked Sentinel league. I had 3 characters to level 90-95. Kind of in the "time to move on" mode now. I liked the league a lot but mostly due to the currency exchange deal that was introduced.

Looks like a gym teacher I had, minus the nose ring.

Have a 3060 ti I am using as a backup now. It kind of whines at times. I guess I am in full use it till it burns up mode. If I got a 5070ti or 9070 I "may" have to change out PSU I'm not sure. It's 750watts but I have different connectors and it's a modular PSU but not really sure what I did...

A pivoting walkway that I did the roof for that went to a river boat in Baton Rouge collapsed. Not the roof but the actual walkway. The fabricator called me today. No my problem, it passed inspection when fabbed and installed 30 years ago. The casino has been closed for a number of years and...

TIL the Duegar are incredibly dumb. Nere fight down to one scrying eye, push it into lava and the fucking Duegar follow it and swing at it over and over doing no damage till they die. Woo hooo. Edit - even worse the eye couldn't get out of the lava but wouldn't die but the Duegar had it...

I have some silver. I never counted it as an investment. When I got paid I would buy 1oz rounds in X quantity from time to time. Just cause I liked them. I will say with the price of silver being where it is I've thought about selling. It would all sell for just silver price, nothing...

I imagine Hobby Lobby would shut down entirely, I've only been in one twice and it seemed like everything in there was super cheap Chinese stuff with a huge markup because it was in a store and presented for the holiday of the season.
