Exactly, they join d the main networks and instances, who hate the Al right trolling, anger, and hatred, and have defederated all of them. They’re still out there, isolated and alone, b cause we all chose we didn’t want to sit here and listen to their drivel.

Thanks for letting us know, in fact it may be worth a today I learned style post because I don’t think people know this

Yeah, last time I went there was over a year ago and had a similar experience to op, now I go to my local shop. Same price now as mcds, but I get almost 2x the food and it’s better quality.

Just recently researched phantom menace. There are a lot of terrible lines. The gungans had the most. This line though was the worst most cringe worthy line of the entire movie.

Agreed. Luckily with RAM, you know pretty quickly if a stick is dead. Yeah the test can run for hours, but in my experience if a stick is dead, memtest will go red almost immediately, most of the time not even making it 2 minutes.

In fact they should try. Due to dual/quad mode the only thing testing multiple sticks at once will tell you is if any of the sticks have failed. Only going one by one will tell you which ones or how many, otherwise you’ll have red herrings

Yeah two sticks at once to me says mobo issue, IF you tested each stick individually and they both failed separately. Maybe not fried, I’d be hesitant to try them in a better mobo to not fry a slot too, but they might still be fine.

Did you test each stick individually to confirm both are dead? If two sticks are in there and it fails all that means is “at least one failed”. That’s just an indicator to go one stick at a time to determine which one.

Unless it’s ddr5 check your local ewaste recyclers, most have shops where you can buy used parts.

Exactly my use case, I’m on a couple communities that I’m sure there are people out there don’t like, but for the few of us who do really like the community we enjoy it. Those who don’t enjoy it are welcome to block us or not subscribe to us, but they insist instead on downvoting every single post because they personally don’t like it, ruining the experience for the actual people who do care about the community. You’re also right that it’s a small community, we’re not talking about Ask Lemmy, we’re talking about a small community with less than 100 people. Where a post may get a few up votes

That’s not at all what I’m talking about. Random downvotes are a constant, those don’t matter to me. However if you really hit 80% downvotes in my community alone, then to me I’m doing you a favor. You should have just blocked my community, so I’ll do it for you. It is honestly difficult to get that high or a downvote rate.

Personally I factor this in with bans on my communities. I very rarely ban, but I do if I notice people like this, who I dub “downvote trolls”. They don’t participate (or when they do it’s negatively), the just downvote constantly.

Now I’m fine with downvotes, I downvote, I think it’s healthy to say “I don’t like this content”. However if all you do is downvote (especially in a specific community) then I view a ban as a win win. We don’t have to deal with your negativity and obviously you don’t enjoy being here anyway from your voting patterns, so everyone wins.

For my communities I have a pretty healthy ratio. If you downvote 80% of the content, you’re on my radar. I won’t ban you on that data alone, but seriously 4 out of 5 votes on the community are on average down then why are you there?

Even those are being locked down behind DRM now

For everyone here, this is true, and I’d recommend buying a couple drives for quick replacements. If you don’t you’re gambling that 1) a replacement drive will be available and 2) that it will be affordable.

Keep a few spares lying around while we get through the ebbs and flows of the market. As K said, a person is smart, people are dumb and panicky. If ssd and storage prices rise, people panic and our hdds will rise too.

Prep now and thank yourself later.

I see there’s still a pro version though, that’s how Insomnia started and features have slowly been leeching to “pro only”, is that a worry with this one?

Bruno looks almost exactly the same! Thank you!

This looks really nice! Thank you!

I really love that type of construction, it is super efficient. People think of big skyscrapers but even just 2 units can be very efficient!

If you’re doing it because of money, that’s completely fine in my book. No issues.

However I have friends who went to the suburbs to “get away from the city”, to “have a rural life”, and “small town living”. All sounds great except they bought a McMansion in a subdivision with an overbearing HOA, there is no small town except for the auto mile and big box stores 10 miles away, they have to drive everywhere, and the closest thing to nature is the artificial lake in the center of the complex. These types of people drive me up the wall.

As someone who has both lived urban and rural, it’s neither, it’s the worst of both worlds, and it’s the worst for the environment and planet. It’s all purely because they want a single family home but also don’t want to give up amenities of the city. You can’t have your cake and eat it too.

Hello fellow midwesterner!

Exactly this. People here mass downvote but I personally find AI to be extremely useful… To do things I already know how to do but don’t have the time for. I don’t trust it to do things I can’t spot the errors in
