Pixy, Ace could put some shelves up for you, if you wanted
Posted by: Bruce at June 25, 2022 04:37 AM (vd8XM) 3
We have shelves - but at what cost?

7"~ tablets are great. Bigger just feel like sitting too close to the TV. Nvidia shield tablet was a great deal in it's day.

Ah, I have two retarded senators. It boggles the mind. Posted by: Infidel at June 25, 2022 04:36 AM (IcyNP) Most states, unfortunately, do. So if I had to guess which state you're in -- and was wrong, it's quite possible at least my first ten guesses wouldn't count as the make-up of the Senate is that bad. Never was a government chamber so full of imbecilic knaves spouting codswallop than the US Senate chamber in session. Posted by: RickZ at June 25, 2022 04:46 AM (ldL4g) 6
Hmm, donuts. Too bad local place doesn't open for another 3 hrs.

RickZ, we had one that tried to run for pres. Ours both look like fags. Now we really have a fag bot for gov. Makes me want to vomit.

This has got to be the hottest take I have seen all day:
Jacqueline S. Homan - #LibertyAndJustice4All @jacquelinehoman Why aren't MEN forced to relinquish control over THEIR bodies to provide blood transfusions, bone marrow donations, kidney donations, etc. to those unborn humans (resulting from their sperm) after they become post-born humans who may need those body parts in order to live? Posted by: Cat Ass Trophy at June 25, 2022 05:14 AM (t3/qz) 14
What father would not donate a part of his liver, kidney or blood to his child if he could?

Dark moments, deep prayers. A reflection on Psalm 143-which is linked at the top of the devotional-from ""Our Daily Bread":

Posted by: Infidel at June 25, 2022 04:58 AM (IcyNP) NY governors: In the 21st Century, we've had two governors resign: One for using high-end (pun intended) prostitutes and money laundering the payments and the other for being a sexual creep and using government resources to write his book, as well as earning his Indian spirit name, Gov. Granny Killer. After the first one resigned, we got a blind lt. governor stepping up to the plate. After the second one resigned, we now have a governor who thinks the 2nd Amendment only applies to muskets. 1/2 Posted by: RickZ at June 25, 2022 05:23 AM (ldL4g) Posted by: Braenyard's phone at June 25, 2022 05:23 AM (4BdKk) 20
Other than that, NY is doing fine--, ah who the hell am I kidding? We are one fucked up state. Even one of the shittiest mayors in NYC history, even worse than Crown Heights Riots Dinkins, progressive former Mayor Big Bird, nee Warren Wilhelm (daddy issues, you see), thought he could/should be president. Unfounded egos without a clue abound here in the Empire State.
Possibly Andrew Cuomo's greatest claim to historical fame is that he and his crappy brother, Fredo, may have brought down CNN. 2/2 Posted by: RickZ at June 25, 2022 05:23 AM (ldL4g) 21

Reading the Ikea article...
"But it's worth noting that to get all this durability, foil paper is generally coated in polyurethane, which is a plastic. Ikea clarified that it's not technically using polyurethane on the new Billy. It will use another plastic, but Ikea says, overall, the new coating will be a net gain for the environment." There ya go. Net gain for the environment. They won't say what the new plastic is, but it's "better" Posted by: Bruce at June 25, 2022 05:26 AM (vd8XM) 23

Pro Abortion protestors were out in our area. Went by about 30 of them along the 4 lane with home made signs.
I laughed as I went by. They were out in front of one of the large liquor store chains. Posted by: Bruce at June 25, 2022 05:30 AM (vd8XM) 26

New tech day! New Dell laptop arrived yesterday for Mrs Canuck.
Too busy to play with it today though gotta coach one of the little Canuck's traveling soccer team. Posted by: CanuckJack at June 25, 2022 05:45 AM (n6C6K) 31
I work for a tech company, very surprised how many people were comfortable spouting off about the evil USA in chat channels yesterday.
No doubt if I excised my views I'd be talking to HR... Posted by: CanuckJack at June 25, 2022 05:48 AM (n6C6K) 32

Morning tech preps!
We have the wood veneer Billy; around 23 years old Hey Pixy & nerds, I have a tech question: There's a old site (which probably isn't maintained anymore) with Latin & English prayers. The Latin prayers used to be rendered perfectly, but now they are messed up, showing weird characters instead of diacritical marks. Is there any simple way for me to fix it/ switch it back if I were to copy and paste the text to my computer for my own reference? http://prayers.gleeson.us/ Posted by: vmom stabby stabby stabby stabby stabamillion at June 25, 2022 05:53 AM (hZGhJ) 34

My question to the drunk councilman- why did you have the USB on you outside of work? You're fired and you get to spend 5 years in prison.

A power surge took out the power supply in my household server yesterday. I must have been asleep when I plugged it in to the wrong side of the UPS, but it's too late to worry about that now. I ordered a new 1000W power supply from Amazon and it arrived three hours later. I'll install it after I get back from my walk.

Not a fan of particle board furniture. IKEA disposables and kitchen odds and ends are OK but the only furniture I like is a couple of their laminated bent wood chairs.
Good luck with the long term durability of the shelves. Posted by: madmike at June 25, 2022 09:48 AM (NlirN) 40
Hey pixy did you hear MS is sunsetting Atom to force more people onto VS editor? I think Atom came out well before them acquiring gethub. So they bought gethub and are sticking the shiv into it. I expect more of this.

From what I'm hearing Zen 4 and Raptor Lake are going to be very comparable. The real question becomes whether Raptor Lake will actually make it to market before or after Zen 4.
If Zen 4 is a 5.5ghz chip, AM5 is probably a four year platform, and Vcache basically means you don't have to go beyond the base DDR5 ram spec to get everything, if both CPUs are pretty comparable, I can't see a huge upside to Raptor Lake, even if it ends up 5-10% faster.

2 Pixy, Ace could put some shelves up for you
Posted by: Bruce at June 25, 2022 04:37 AM (vd8XM) The word "not" has inexplicable dropped out of your phrasing, there. Posted by: m at June 25, 2022 11:26 AM (YtnN4) 45
The best selection is encode with ISO-8859-15 decode with utf-8
It just won't show the "ae" though. Everything else it does. But I'm sure that's the coding fix. Posted by: banana Dream at June 25, 2022 11:44 AM (0fVbu) 46
