Life itself doesn’t get easier until you learn how to make boundaries and life the way you really are. Ask anyone that has “come out” as gay, trans, or autistic. It sucks at first but life gets better once you learn who you are and stop being sorry for it.

Cool write up!

I recommend you play TRAIL OUT, which is a spiritual successor to the best FLATOUT games. I like it a lot and would love to hear your thoughts!

I work in a PC repair shop and I run my tool stick on this way. By the way, you can just put a folder in your Ventoy and store non-iso files so you can have portable apps and so on.

• Acronis (can clone to reduced size drives unlike clonezilla which can only clone to equal or bigger)
• MemTest86 & MemTest86+ (+ is the FOSS one. Recommend both because sometimes one won’t work)
• Don’t forget that you can put other stuff in a Ventoy, not just .isos. I have shitlods of utilities in a folder beside all the .isos.
• Tons more but I just woke up for work. I will make this list much longer when I get there of I can remember to

Edit: ADHD did ADHD things. Here’s some more stuff. A lot of it is Windows-centric because that’s what we specialize in. ISOs:

• PC Unlocker (Windows password remover, paid)
• Gandalf’s Windows Preboot (similar to Hirans, but modern. Paid.)

Utilities:

• CrystalDiskInfo (SMART checks and more on SSDs)
• CrystalDiskMark (SSD benchmark)
• FastCopy (Windows copy utility. Free)
• HDTunePro (v5.00 specifically. After this, license binds to a single machine. HDD SMART checks, benchmark, secure erase, sector scans, and more.)
• OCCT (CPU, GPU, Memory, PSU, and other checks and stress tests. Top-tier tool.)
• F6 Drivers (drivers for NVMe detection on some laptops)
• Spacesniffer (visual representation of disk utilization. Similar to WinDirStat, but looks nicer/runs quicker imo. Free.)

I’m here for that type of family memory.

Yes this is the correct answer. The words in the meme are written to a hypothetical end user. They would not reference technology like the other person said.

Green and yellow need to be swapped.

The fun bus has no brakes.

🎵 And I should have died 6000 more 🎶

I love old machines but 7 years old is a lifetime in computing and especially laptops. Most normal laptops last like 3-5 before they fall apart. One thing that is cool about Thinkpads is that they are often obsolete before the fall apart.

Super tall mountains do stay snow-capped but that starts at elevation roughly double of where I live.

So that is true in terms of convection heat. Aka the sun gets the air hot, then the air gets you hot. When you’re in the shade, this is how you feel heat in high altitude. At sea level this is also mostly how you feel heat.

The difference is radiation heat. When you’re in the thinner atmosphere you get more UV light and it heats you directly. UV can also penetrate skin a certain amount so it heats you inside too. You also burn super fast up high.

Logically I know that of course.

Friendly reminder, this is specifically a thread about petty and pedantic topics. I self-nominated as pedantic here.

I like that and it’s probably the right metric tbh. But in terms of just linear distance it makes my blood itch lmao

Yes! That’s another one for sure. I personally can let that one go however. But as for heat, I have studied it formally and something about makes me need to fix the misinformation.

So not to be pendantic (lol), but this is the definition of a pendant:

noun noun: pedant; plural noun: pedants

a person who is excessively concerned with minor details and rules or with displaying academic learning.

With pedantic of course meaning acting in that way. I feel like pointing out my technical knowledge is unnecessary in the grand scheme of things but even if I try to let it go my brain will hang on to it until I tell them, even if that is much later on.

That said, hopefully it’s not pointless to share!

I live in a high altitude area. It gets very hot. People will say that it’s because we’re “closer to the sun” as if the _6000ft/1800m difference is what matters vs the 93,000,000mi/150,000,000km distance to the sun is affected by something so small.

The difference is the lack of atmosphere to soften the various types of light from the sun.

Our teeth do much better when we eat a diet that’s more in line with our evolution. Check out pictures of primal tribes. They very often have beautiful smiles.

Destiny 2 should be in that list. It’s all meta builds.

I’ll also mention the opposite. I got back into Rocket League. I originally had about 300hrs in it and stopped playing for a couple years. I have put maybe another 30hrs in since coming back and it’s exactly as I left it. Maybe a couple menus have changed but it was very simple to get back into.

Yeah definitely a stupidity problem and not an education problem. /s

Yeah basically a kneecaped PC with horrible data policy. Example, if you have a game with a 3rd party save/account like a lot of games do, Sony owns it and you can not migrate it to other platforms. I bought my nephew a gaming PC and he lost about 2000hrs of progress in Apex because Sony owns his account.

I’m not even a snob against consoles, just Sony sucks balls these days. I’d go with an Xbox but by then you’re basically buying a PC… Although you can prob get a cheaper price on an Xbox especially if you’re not building your own machine.

If you go with the T480 (not sure about the S model) you can run dual batteries and it’s runds FOREVER
