To your point about watching YouTube with adblockers still helping Google due to viewership numbers. That’s exactly why after I stopped supporting blizzard (at first due to the blutzchung controversy, then everything else that happened) I immediately stopped playing hearthstone, yes, I was playing it free, I never spent any money on it, but I didn’t want to even indirectly help by giving them usage statistics, or by giving paying people even a little bit of a quicker matchmaking.

Honestly, I pretty much only use mine for relatively cheap home speaker groups.

I do that with SOPs, part of my job if to create them for a new system we’re using. I essentially just create bullet points, say hey, can you make the following into an SOP? And paste my bullets. It spits out a pretty clean looking SOP that I just need to go in and edit a bit. It’s really useful.

I fucking loved when Pokémon go came it, it was so great, but a couple of months after it came out, I was going to the beach, and i was so excited. I figured, going to the beach, I would be swimming in water type Pokémon, then when I got there, I was like, oh, it’s the same zubats at home. Never really played it after.

100% that, plus more competition.

There was a point where I had planned on getting a tesla for my next car, but now I’m avoiding it like the plague.

North Carolina has a similar policy, before you purchase anything, you’re supposed to check to see if Correction Industries sells it, if so, you need to purchase it from them unless you have a valid exemption (like for instance a medical condition that requires a certain type of chair)

I used to do a lot work with the owner of my old company’s financial advisor. One time, he was sitting there complaining to me about how the owner had to pay like 1.5 million in income taxes that year. I’m like, bruh, cry me a fucking river.

I ran into the same issue with the chromecast. So when I travel I always bring a roku, because that will let you access the login page.

Yep. Some people just have an addictive personality and need to be addicted to something. Eminem talked about it when he first got clean. He was saying how he replaced his addiction for drugs with running. Said he would run for several miles every single day.

I’ve played around with Linux before, but never really wanted to use it. I’ve always just been happy with windows. Without a doubt though, if they started a subscription for it. I would switch to Linux.

I don’t know why you’re getting down voted. Overregulation is crazy, I was watching this interview by the CEO of this company that explores the ocean named Stockton Rush, and he has the same argument that the government needed to stop regulating so much. I should look him up, I’m not sure what happened to him…

Yep. My work just went work from home for all non essential personnel for the foreseeable future because a few covid cases in my office.

I’m not an expert but in my very brief googling, it doesn’t look like GAP insurance covers getting repoed.

That really upset me. Domino’s was my favorite pizza, but then after they changed it. I don’t like it anymore. ☺️

My brother went to school with a Ben Dover. As you can said, he was picked on a lot too.

Yes, the Ltt Forum has a lot of really bad takes. There are a bunch of people who do seem to be reasonable, but I did see some really brain dead things when I checked it out.

Yeah, a couple of months ago there was an offer to buy LMG from him for a total of 100 mil. I believe it was 60% cash 40% stock in the acquiring company. They turned the offer down.

Billet labs has come out and said that LTT has suggested they could get the cooler back for them, and billet labs declined and said they would just take the reimbursement.

They said their reasoning for that include (they said more, but just a few brief reasons) the fact that they can’t know if it’s still in the condition required, and if not, how much time and money it would take to repair it

they don’t know if it would have all the various pieces still attached, once again, not knowing how much time or money it would cost to replace those

they’ve already begun work on recreating the prototype

they’ve confirmed it didn’t go to a competitor, so less worries about ip issues

Finally and the biggest thing to me that I was unaware of before reading their statement, they sent LTT a 3090ti to along with the block to test it, LTT then proceeded to lose it (which is why they used the wrong card in the video) and just recently found it, which meant LTT had not only their block but a 3090ti for 9 weeks so they didn’t know if LTT could get it back how quickly they would send it to Billet.

I’ve seen in other articles that Twitter was forbidden from telling trump and they actually got fined because they were late trying providing the info because they wanted to notify trump.
