To be honest some of htem kind of turned me away

[edgy laurel]

hmm, don't think so. local?

Here you go

[edgy laurel]

"This is going to damage my liver but look how pretty it is"

[edgy laurel]

this sounds and looks so refreshing lol

[steel stream]

that's quite the glass, it looks cool

[topaz veldt]

That my friend is an IPA glass

[steel stream]

I just didn't know they made them ribbed for pleasure

[edgy laurel]

I did not have one of those

sculpin was, from memory, very bitter

[topaz veldt]

Fantastic ipa

[edgy laurel]

but it was everyones favorite

[topaz veldt]

Sculpin is a west coast

[edgy laurel]

almost done, lets get a pic lol

[topaz veldt]

[topaz veldt]

I dunno if I can do it

One thing I am NOT into is pumpkin beers

[edgy laurel]

[topaz veldt]

Right now I have a few types yeah

[edgy laurel]

[steel stream]

5nail do you have a fridge just for beer

[topaz veldt]

I have a drink fridge

[steel stream]

[topaz veldt]

so like beer, soda, etc.

@edgy laurel if you like Cloudy, try this one

[edgy laurel]

gonna have to hitup the sampler at giant tomorrow

[topaz veldt]

awwyeah

[steel stream]

I just got this Mango Passionfruit drink at Meijer that is pretty good

[topaz veldt]

do i get a lager or an ipa

[steel stream]

lager

[topaz veldt]

ah shit, lagers are pints

[fringe vigil]

oled users i have a geneuine question

[heavy mantle]

What

[topaz veldt]

what is it

[edgy laurel]

all of the channel BUT jorj at this point

[fringe vigil]

im looking forward to having a bigger screen 42inch to be exact, but i worry will i be overloaded by the size bec i sit fairly close on my desk

[edgy laurel]

thats a genuine concern

and 42" is a lot if you don't have a deep desk

[shell void]

jorj my friend youve been thinking about this for more than two years

[edgy laurel]

i feel like this particular concern should have come up before now

[left ermine]

Is using an SSD with DRAM for OS and a DRAM less external SSD for games a good idea?

[fringe vigil]

my desk is somewhat deep, but i will be sitting close, i hope its not to much overload when im using it for browsing and editing esepcially

[edgy laurel]

sure, but it doesn't make a difference either way if both NVMe

[shell void]

how deep is your desk? i would aim for at least 36 inches (91.5 centimeters)

[fringe vigil]

however, i might have to minimise the tab right?

[edgy laurel]

you want it as far away as possible. can you measure the desk depth?

[steel stream]

how deep is your desk

[fringe vigil]

hmm idk

[heavy mantle]

About 50 for me

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel Goo Goo Dolls did NPR Tiny Desk today... dude is scary AF

[fringe vigil]

the desk is quite big

[young void]

Even 32" feels kinda large but looks great

[shell void]

i dont think youre measuring depth, but if you are then you can basically use anything

[edgy laurel]

i dunno if I wanna look

[heavy mantle]

Yeah i did

[shell void]

get a tape measure

[steel stream]

50" deep desk is crazy

[edgy laurel]

50 what

[fringe vigil]

also do you guys minimise the tab or have it full screen??

[heavy mantle]

Inches

[edgy laurel]

minimize what?

[shell void]

when im browsing i use two tabs

[steel stream]

https://tenor.com/view/i-dont-believe-you-whatever-lies-gif-3602502

[shell void]

i do that on all sizes of display tho

[steel stream]

water send a pic

I just use one tab, but the C4 makes it real easy to just have like 4 tabs open

if need be

[heavy mantle]

https://tenor.com/view/house-md-do-i-get-bonus-points-hugh-laurie-gif-17126716

[shell void]

sheesh if it's actually 50" deep then you could drop a 55" TV on there comfortably

[steel stream]

touche

[shell void]

most people have to wall mount or floor stand those

[heavy mantle]

It was a office desk

[edgy laurel]

@fringe vigil

[heavy mantle]

Apparently it was some sort of IT departments work bench

[fringe vigil]

like this for example

[edgy laurel]

what are you asking exactly

hey you can turn the other monitor into a secondary and finally experience multi-displays

[fringe vigil]

like is your chrome full screen

[edgy laurel]

i posted my desktop above

[fringe vigil]

but looking at this i guess not

[edgy laurel]

4K at 100% scaling, anything fullscreen is stupid

other than games

[heavy mantle]

Do you mar videos jorj?

Make*

[fringe vigil]

videos of what

[fringe vigil]

yh true

[heavy mantle]

Idk you tell me

[steel stream]

i have to see this now

[fringe vigil]

i will watch shows and tv full screen though from a distance

[steel stream]

oh hey look it's me lol

[edgy laurel]

you'll see you have a ton of room, so its a bit wasteful to full screen like browsers

[fringe vigil]

hmmm

yh i dont really full screen even on my 27inch so yh

[steel stream]

i run 125% scaling

[edgy laurel]

breath
personal preference
breath

[fringe vigil]

i think i will make use of the space really well bec i do need multiple things side by side

[steel stream]

I am switching to 100 and seeing if I like it

[edgy laurel]

i'm switching to 125 and seeing if I like it

AHH

NOPE

everything got HUGE

[fringe vigil]

i want small and sharp scale

[steel stream]

I was about to say I like that we both have open minds, but I guess not lol

[edgy laurel]

minds were open, i tried it!

I could stand it for about 6 seconds

[fringe vigil]

wait show me the depth of your desk

i wanna see if its similar to mine

[steel stream]

idk i think the text looks clearer at 125%

[edgy laurel]

I don't have a good picture or a measuring tape but this is the same desk. That right side is where i sit

[steel stream]

how deep is your desk guilty again?

[pure garnet]

i run 150% but i have a 27” monitor so

[edgy laurel]

expected

[steel stream]

outlook just crashed my pc

[pure garnet]

100% is not really useable at this size

[fringe vigil]

mine is quite big width

[gaunt ginkgo]

is any one free to help me go trough my services and backround apps in my task manager if so please hit me up 🙏

[pure garnet]

125 is okay but honestly im kinda unc in the eyes so 150 is okay

[steel stream]

I will try 100 for a few days

[steel stream]

DALE!

[young void]

I genuinely dont know probs 100 if thats default havent really messed with it

[pure garnet]

just go through this tab and shut off whatever you don't need open at startup

[gaunt ginkgo]

what that mean 😂

[pure garnet]

takes 30s to do

[gaunt ginkgo]

nooo not that

[steel stream]

https://tenor.com/view/hands-up-party-time-singing-bounce-dancing-gif-7934002190273059949

[pure garnet]

where do you think the services spawn from 💀

[gaunt ginkgo]

OHH PIT BULL IM SLOW SORRY 🤣

[steel stream]

Guilty i think you run 100% because you sit closer than me

[gaunt ginkgo]

nooo not that like third party stuff if u are free could u hop in a vc with me for like 5 mins and ill show ya

if not no worries

[steel stream]

I like the size of stuff in 100%, but text is harder for me to read

[edgy laurel]

older setup but same desk, also back before I realized i could push it like 4-5 inches further back

[gaunt ginkgo]

do u play on that monitor

[edgy laurel]

its my primary monitor

[gaunt ginkgo]

ahh fairs i think i would find it a bit annoying is the high and lenth the same

[edgy laurel]

the what

for @fringe vigil

[gaunt ginkgo]

like is it the monitor even in the hight of it and lenth

[steel stream]

no

[topaz veldt]

what is that

[steel stream]

fantastic four

[edgy laurel]

lmao

The Last of Us, the TV show

[steel stream]

or it could be game of thrones

[odd sable]

wtf is this?
your schiit not in a stack.......

[edgy laurel]

listen, it doesn't FIT in a stack where it is. I don't wanna hear it! 😆

[steel stream]

or wonder woman, or the unbearable weight of massive talent, or mandalorian, or narcos, or buffy

[odd sable]

then move it

[steel stream]

the shit does not deserved to be stacked

[odd sable]

please understand that im just taking the pyst

[edgy laurel]

truth. i hate it. its only currently working...

[fringe vigil]

It’s gorgeous

[steel stream]

JDS Tone Labs

[edgy laurel]

Topping

[fringe vigil]

I can’t wait to watch shows on it

[steel stream]

I am a sucker for the aluminum

[steel stream]

ok valid

[odd sable]

what generation of magni/modi is that?

[edgy laurel]

@steel stream did you see that pic of the guys C3 he dropped

[steel stream]

wait what no

[edgy laurel]

I wish I remembered, they were bought new around 2016

[odd sable]

old then

[edgy laurel]

yeah, it'll cost you about whatever a new C5 costs

[topaz veldt]

should be fixab.... just kidding lol

[odd sable]

just replace the panel, ez

[steel stream]

gotta be trolling lol, or coping

[edgy laurel]

yeah. USB just died on the Modi, i've moved to optical and its been "ok". I have to fiddle with the gain switch on the Magni to get the right gain out of both channels and thats also currently "working" until i have to touch it again.

[odd sable]

i've got a bunch of schiit stuff, so i just like to point out when i see it in other's setups

[edgy laurel]

The volume pot is scratchy but I don't touch it so thats also just squeaking by

[odd sable]

i am actively using a magnius/modius stack

[steel stream]

I used to have the magni+ but it was acting iffy on me

[odd sable]

wack, luckily i haven't had any issues with my stuff

[topaz veldt]

i had a couple schitt components, wasn't too impressed overall

[edgy laurel]

Topping when one of these finally completely dies

[topaz veldt]

yeah topping is best bang for buck

or SMSL

[fringe vigil]

wtf

[odd sable]

when i bought my magnius/modius, it was the best you could get for balanced at its price ($400)

[edgy laurel]

I feel like that segment is flooded with options now

[odd sable]

its not now, the DX5 (i think thats the model) beats it pretty handily, but it was good when it launched

[topaz veldt]

theres so much in the $200-500 range

[steel stream]

yeah I like the look of the topping stuff

[edgy laurel]

a lot of them test pretty damn well too

[steel stream]

like I said earlier, nice aluminum bricks tickle my fancy

it would appear 100% scaling freaks out apple music

[topaz veldt]

MacOS literally unusable

[turbid locust]

Apple Music windows app is some of the most infuriating shit on the planet

[shell void]

apple music is just horrendous to use in windows in any form

[edgy laurel]

I'll probably get what michael got, the E2x2 (right?)

[steel stream]

if i do the music fullscreen it activates VRR and freaks the fuck out lol

[turbid locust]

Which pisses me off because the audio quality is DRAMATICALLY BETTER than everything else convenient on pc

[shell void]

i cant tell a difference betweenspotify lossless and apple music lossless

[topaz veldt]

Nah - Amazon Music

[shell void]

the spotify app works great so meh no incentive to switch

[turbid locust]

lmao fuckin who

[topaz veldt]

I know, it sounds hilarious

[turbid locust]

like fucking hell it does

[edgy laurel]

the option to run an XLR mic in one convenient package is appealing

[turbid locust]

Spotify app freaking tf out in windows is the entire reason I swapped to YT Music for awhile

[odd sable]

DX5II*

[random flame]

Eeehhh I just use the Youtube Music app... Or really just the unofficial port of it for PC anyway.

And audio quality is as expected, which is super basic.

[turbid locust]

I’ve resorted to using YT Music in browser on desktop because every windows audio streaming app is dog ass

[shell void]

ive had so few issues that i cant even remember one clearly

[edgy laurel]

there is a bug if you "install" the YT music page as an "app", at least in Chrome. Can't do the high quality audio mode

[turbid locust]

I would open it and it would infinitely skip through my entire library

[steel stream]

you'll have to pry apple music from my cold dead hands

[edgy laurel]

use it just in a browser like normal

[topaz veldt]

You should research Amazon Music

[shell void]

yeh i got a white e2x2 otg

[odd sable]

ive liked Feishin, though thats probably not what you are looking for really

[turbid locust]

Or literally just be unresponsive

[indigo walrus]

Um... I'm not here to detract from your experience, but... what do you mean by this? Like @shell void, I've had almost zero issues running the Spotify App on Windows since it became generally available in 2008. The only "hiccup" was back when they were in the middle of switching UI/UX designs and had a couple botched updates.

[edgy laurel]

i have to look again what the OTG model offers. i know what OTG means in practice but not what it means in this case

[topaz veldt]

Amazon Music streams FLAC @ 24-bit / 192 kHz

[turbid locust]

if I have to transfer shit to another streaming service I will delete myself in game

[random flame]

I've kinda stopped using it in browser.

[topaz veldt]

Transfer what

[steel stream]

has anyone else noticed that the search function in iOS 26 sometimes just does not work

[turbid locust]

It literally hard bugged out at least once a week for me to the point of having to log out, delete the app, reinstall, and log back in. Various issues from randomly skipping through 700 songs to just… not playing when I hit play.

[random flame]

Admittedly, I prefer downloading songs in FLAC instead of trying to find a streaming service for it.

[turbid locust]

Liked songs and playlists and whatnot

[shell void]

if youre only ever going to use one xlr input then you can save money and get the e1x2 non-otg

[topaz veldt]

Its worth it because its so good

[turbid locust]

Not new to iOS 26 unfortunately lmao

[topaz veldt]

I did a whole YT Music, Qubuz, Tidal, Amazon showdown

[steel stream]

i've never had issues till iOS 26, I am talking about the search on the home screen for apps and such, so fucking frustrating lol

I only run one home page so search is a big tool

[turbid locust]

Yeah same

[indigo walrus]

Huh. Weird. I've never heard of that happening to anyone, even during my ~3 years of volunteer moderating their Community Forums and helping users via the https://twitter.com/AskSpotifyStars - sounds frustrating for sure.

[turbid locust]

Can’t say I’ve really had issues with app search

[odd sable]

downloaded music gang

i have all my music on my server, and just stream it from that

[steel stream]

yeah sometimes the search bar at the bottom of the home page just stops working for a bit, and I havbe to manually go through my library

[odd sable]

its mostly flacs on there, but usually i use transcoding to 320kbps mp3

[turbid locust]

https://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Windows/Spotify-app-skips-songs-repeatedly-without-input/td-p/6263350

[indigo walrus]

I wish I were lucky enough to have access to an Apple device capable of running iOS 26. 🤣 I'm still stuck on iOS 16 because the work phone is an iPhone 8 Plus. 🤷 Everything I heard about iOS 26 makes me scared of using it.

[steel stream]

yeah this happened to me too when i used to use spotify

[indigo walrus]

Does the app say / flash something about "Song unavailable" or "Unable to play song" when it does this? If so, it's likely an app cache / network connectivity bug indeed.

[turbid locust]

It’s ok, at least you didn’t buy a 16PM in April and throw out all your lightning cables, just to get a 14 from work

[turbid locust]

Nope

[warped mountain]

ordered! ill let you knhow how pairing with MAC goes! i STILL really wanted teh iPad, but even the 11 was double after taxes and stuff.

[turbid locust]

I have never even once in my life thought I needed a tablet

wtf do people do on tablets

The only usecase I can think of is maybe Art

[edgy laurel]

bathroom entertainment, bed, side videos at desk, kitchen videos

[odd sable]

reading

manga/epub

[edgy laurel]

i don't use my phone much at home

[steel stream]

school work

super nice for marking up homeworks and pdfs

[low sorrel]

Games

[steel stream]

after college it will become just youtube

[low sorrel]

Notes

[turbid locust]

none of these are valid

[young void]

Im mostly phone user but for media a tab would be cool. I also know some 2d/3d artists that run programs on their tablets to make like in game gear/art/promotional content for marketing

[turbid locust]

yawn

[low sorrel]

Marking up a paper

[turbid locust]

Maybe if you’re 5

[warped mountain]

digital notes, and HDR content on OLED device.
keeps me from cycling the MBP battery through 2 cycles a day.
better in bed ( cant roll over the keyboard .... )

[odd sable]

look, i dont wanna wait a decade for the anime to (maybe) be released

[turbid locust]

yall gotta stop bringing devices to bed with you

that shit is not good for you

[low sorrel]

Dawg get off your Macbook if you cycle it twice a day

[warped mountain]

i can do markups on my phone .... but its annoying

[odd sable]

do you have any idea how much further ahead the LN is for slime isekai vs the anime?

[low sorrel]

And?

[steel stream]

I need IG reels before bedtime man

[pure garnet]

i bought one for my math class and on the first day the professor banned those and said we're using paper notes

[warped mountain]

thats why i needed real battery life XD my Lenovo coudl only do 75 minutes of very light use.

[pure garnet]

and they handed us a note packet that matched the course

[turbid locust]

good

[steel stream]

it was so goated for my 4 calc classes man

[pure garnet]

and i've never used my ipad ever again beyond updating it once a year

[steel stream]

calc classes and my circuits stuff it's been awesome

[low sorrel]

Spreadsheets

[steel stream]

no

[edgy laurel]

they're all valid, since I do exactly that every day

[low sorrel]

I might buy an iPad ngl

[turbid locust]

nuh uh

[warped mountain]

so far windows shockinly had teh best handwriting recgontion. i dont think that will change, uit maybe samsung will suprise me

[indigo walrus]

Apparently the things you do every day are "invalid" so um... you better stop doing them. "Or else?"

[steel stream]

iPad air is a great choice

[turbid locust]

All I’m hearing is people that need a 2 in 1 laptop

[steel stream]

please ban Mac

[edgy laurel]

sheesh i guess so

[turbid locust]

a touch screen laptop even

[low sorrel]

Yeah but apple

[warped mountain]

a 2 in 1 ...............

[edgy laurel]

touchscreen laptop bro..

[steel stream]

Ok yeah he needs to be banned

[edgy laurel]

seconded

[steel stream]

or at least a time out

[low sorrel]

Honestly 2 in 1 is fair

[steel stream]

2 in 1s are compromises

[low sorrel]

Also isn't an iPad with a keyboard just a 2 in 1

[warped mountain]

i just needed OLED to justify the purchase. the MBP screen just blooms too much for HDR (same reason i disabled HDR on my lenovo mini led)

[turbid locust]

I SAID WHAT I SAID

[edgy laurel]

i went into a meeting today, flipped my work laptop over to tablet mode. lasted about 40 seconds before I switched back

[low sorrel]

I mean so is a laptop and an iPad since you have to carry 2 devices around

[steel stream]

I am talking about decisions for sane rational people

[warped mountain]

you know how hard it is to find an actual good one? the lenovo 9i .... but its over $2k......

[edgy laurel]

granted I don't have a very convienent to use 2in1

[topaz veldt]

Best part is that it's not a 2-in-1

[turbid locust]

your financial situation does not dictate the truth

[topaz veldt]

@turbid locust bro you're getting involved now?

[warped mountain]

yeah, i have a 9th gen so only way i was buying was if it was better. OLED at 1600 nits is better than 500 nits.

[steel stream]

https://tenor.com/view/brock-lesnar-destroys-laptop-laptop-throw-destruction100-gif-23291063

Involved? I started this shit

[steel stream]

Moooommmmm Mac is rage baiting again

[turbid locust]

[low sorrel]

I don't get the hate about 2 in 1s

[turbid locust]

What if it isn’t ragebait? What if it’s truly my unfiltered, dogshit opinion?

[steel stream]

I think less of you.

[turbid locust]

I don’t need your validation

[steel stream]

Arc Raiders this weekend?

[turbid locust]

probably

[steel stream]

sweet

[warped mountain]

huh? most SUCK. the hp was OKAY, but sitting there wiating on the laptop to finish updating windows for 3 hours because it cant do anything else at the same time was a terrible experience (though at $600 for refirb .... i cannot NOT recomend it) the lenovo has the Wacom system (wayyy better than MPP) but will have teh same performance issue of lag when its doing background tasks.

Why the hell do you write teh

[pure garnet]

i use the touch screen on my matte thinkpad to scroll in lectures so

i find that cool but i don’t care about 2 in 1s

[shell void]

good laptops r pretty affordable nowadays it's cool

like that u9 288v + 32gb + 2tb + 2880x1800 120Hz oled that i saw for $999

[warped mountain]

ok most 2 in 1 have lunar lake, which cannot do thing in the background without lagging out.

[turbid locust]

I live my life one 125U based laptop at a time

[brittle trellis]

How tf did a windows update take 3 hours? Is this thing 15 years old??

[pure garnet]

i have a 1245u and an m1 pro 8 core

they both accomplish laptop tasks just fine

[steel stream]

11900H or bust

[topaz veldt]

I need the best 4K HDR display thats under 20"

i dont mean to right hand does t and h, left does e, and timing is poor.

LTT is Sony biased confirmed

Someone tell GN

[shell void]

i tried to link the Sony BVM-HX1710N to Snail and it got nuked

[low sorrel]

[steel stream]

YES another 4hr long expose!!!!!!

[turbid locust]

[steel stream]

"LTT has Sony bias. Destroy their reputation, make Linus bankrupt"

[warped mountain]

so the mac book air, and macbook pro?

[brittle trellis]

One actual kinda concern and then padded with a buncha BS

[low sorrel]

Where touch screen

[turbid locust]

wdym everything GN said was true and should be taken at face value

[warped mountain]

yeah i was shocked sitting there watching it run flat out in task manager to install teh feature pack. i was like WTF

[edgy laurel]

there has been a few uploads recently that just looked drama filled, i've skipped

[steel stream]

Tech Jesus is our true savior 🙏

[turbid locust]

crackers are good asf rn

[steel stream]

That LTT drama video probably did really well for them and they want to replicate it or smth

[warped mountain]

actully ... apple magic keyboard, hard hinge with tilt and trackpad. touch screen 2 in 1 from apple

Linus personally did all this stuff and it's all because he's invested in framework and hired a CEO that previously worked for major companies they work with

can we not do politics here please

[low sorrel]

I would not like to do anyone in politics thank you very much

[steel stream]

thanks for the fun fact

[topaz veldt]

The government was shutdown by the Democrats. This admin is releasing the same documents that the previous admin could have released if there was anything worthwhile in it but chose not to. So far, we have the Leader of the Minority in the house reaching out to Epstein for fund raising AFTER he was convicted of terrible things. This is not the flex you think it is.

[low sorrel]

Yooo it’s 28F outside

First 20’s of the season

[young void]

Getting icy be sure to keep some candles around, get some little few hours burners incase the power goes out and need to boil some water for some Ramen or whateves

(Superflame,sternos, whatevers clever)

Dewpoint is 27F so that kind of has a cap on the temperatures

[young void]

Not quite that cold here but getting there

https://tenor.com/view/scared-jay-karl-startled-whoa-snowman-gif-18631139

[warped mountain]

Let's see the return process

[whole coral]

Temperatures can’t go past the minimum dewpoint. Relative humidity max is 100%

There is such a thing as supersaturation in meteorology though

[topaz veldt]

the way god intended

[warped mountain]

Seamless, no. But I also understand being electronics focused. 8/10.
One point off because even with pre-check and it still took a long time to return.
1 off for the payment system that has some serious issues.

Would recommend!

I took meteorology in college as an elective

[young void]

They getcha with a 2 week refund or whats off about the payment system?

Haven't been*

[topaz veldt]

I have returned multi-thousand dollar things to Micro Center without issue

[young void]

How does the refund work? They got like a credit option?

[warped mountain]

Darn was expecting $62 fill-up. Relief can't come soon enough!
.391 per mile.

[young void]

Oofs but I feel it my vans like $60-70ish depending how far I pusher

[warped mountain]

No the guy was saying "don't touch anything because it's going to error out" and it errored out five times before he was finally able to get it to ask me to swipe my credit card to confirm my credit card number for the refund...

[warped mountain]

Refund shouldn't have any issue, but this is also a new store so maybe they're having some internet problems.

[wise bear]

Pos terminals can be like that, that's not their payment system.

[warped mountain]

I don't know if they have a store credit option they just refunded it back to my credit card because the unit was defective.

[young void]

Oh that doesn't sound to shabby

[warped mountain]

Yeah that's what he was saying like their transaction system is old school like Fry's electronics but sometimes it has issues with the POs terminal. I guess I should have been more specific

And now off to their competitor Best buy 💀💀💀

I decline to share my age (because it's just one piece of information identity thieves use), but also... yes, all the years after 30 hit differently than your 20's. Can't stay up until 2AM without destroying braincells anymore.

[topaz veldt]

I love it - its like buying a house with lead pipes and being mad that someone told you they would get rid of lead pipes

[topaz veldt]

Each year after 30 is scientifically established as representing 19 years of age additional

[wise bear]

Its like the wild west with the drug zombies here tbh

[young void]

Probs like half of you have my info but I try to be a good person if my identity gets stolen jokes on them they can have all this crippling debt and stress

Ill turn into Mr Chavez and move to mexico see snail on his vacays

[low sorrel]

There's just an whole section of my city that i avoid

[warped mountain]

Yep it's like buying a house with guaranteed pex only plumbing under contract and then finding out it's has radon and lead pipes. But they just decided that that contract didn't mean anything.

[wise bear]

I wish gang violence was solved with paintball guns like in that one vice documentary

[whole coral]

It’s awesome that we live longer lives today

[topaz veldt]

[whole coral]

I heard someone say things have gotten worse when it comes to health but I think they see the rate of chronic diseases go up

[topaz veldt]

I think gang violence should be solved in a boxing ring

[warped mountain]

Lol nah I'm chillin. Wish things cost less but 🤷 I spend $20,000 a year in fuel so it matters.

[edgy laurel]

this is fucking hilarious

[random flame]

I swear, the detachment I have to the public school system here must be so great, it's why they hate us homeschoolers... Because this is not something I learned in vocabulary.

[wise bear]

/a fuck missile/ what

[warped mountain]

But ya you are right shouldn't have trusted that people can change or keep promises,

[turbid locust]

Would you like to know, west coast

[topaz veldt]

I learned it on the streets

[random flame]

Uuuuhh in my case, it's complicated then because I'm not even sure how to make a comparison of what I learned to what everyone else learned.

[wise bear]

I'm queer enough to speculate tyvm

[wise bear]

Am I in there anywhere

[turbid locust]

call that an inqueeriry

[indigo walrus]

Same. Friend's kids are learning all kinds of "whack" math procedures compared to what we learned in school. The parents can't even help them because they never grew up with these new concepts. 🤷

[topaz veldt]

I wouldn't think someone buying $8500 worth of apple products is upset at $3 gas while driving something with a 35+ gallon tank

[edgy laurel]

on moment, querying archives

[topaz veldt]

but I guess you miss $4-5/gal

[random flame]

And I'm guessing they're also being forced to do it exactly the way they're told and not solve it in a way that makes sense to them like I've been hearing most of the time?

[edgy laurel]

i don't even know

[turbid locust]

guys I was proud of this ffs

[wise bear]

[wise bear]

I blame the Cordell guy

And atomicsub

[topaz veldt]

Promises made, promises kept

Prob lives in some socialist state that charges $1 tax

[wise bear]

I think Oregon just got another gas tax lmao

[topaz veldt]

LOL

[wise bear]

Pretty state, weird govt

[topaz veldt]

it writes itself really

[turbid locust]

I got my license right after Covid hit and gas was $1.09/gal

[topaz veldt]

hilariously this entire area, which is quite expensive, the highest gas price is $2.93

[warped mountain]

Oh I'm not, just feel bad for people that trusted and believe enough to fall for the scam.

[topaz veldt]

ya'll got that corn juice

[wise bear]

Gas tax in or is .46c/gal

[warped mountain]

We never went over $4.09.

[turbid locust]

[hoary hatch]

Have to make up for no sales tax somehow I guess

[warped mountain]

That's still 50% over the for your guarantee that was leveraged.

[topaz veldt]

22 year old with hyperextended knees

[topaz veldt]

this isn't english

[warped mountain]

No we went over this it's only 18 cents

[turbid locust]

[hoary hatch]

I can see the coffin already

[wise bear]

Designed by Elton john

[topaz veldt]

I feel bad for people who were convinced their knees would be normal

[warped mountain]

Yeah I know they're super angry and starving to death because their SNAP benefits were withheld. And their fuel prices are way higher than they expected, their money doesn't go far enough because the economy is not booming as promised and utility prices are at an all-time high... .

But hey it's open again.. so hopefully they understand that their actions have consequences.

[hoary hatch]

My right knee is fucked

[gentle gale]

do you drive a hummer or something?

[indigo walrus]

Assuming I converted correctly... we're sitting at $4.01 USD / US gallon. (Converted from $1.49 CAD / Liter.)

[topaz veldt]

Call your local democratic congress person

[random flame]

Our lowest has been hovering just under $2.60 almost.

[turbid locust]

no it’s that I don’t have hyperextended knees bro

[wise bear]

Child

[topaz veldt]

Yep - shit is down down down

[topaz veldt]

Bro its ok

[random flame]

Meanwhile, for the entirety of my state...

[hoary hatch]

I'm at $3.something

[warped mountain]

That's still 50% higher than the 4 year guarantee that was leveraged.
Shame when something has a promised price, and then you're charged 50% over and you don't have a choice to not purchase. 🤷

[topaz veldt]

I don't think you know what the word "leveraged" means

[shell void]

i miss 2023 tech prices

[wise bear]

Cordell do you understand geopolitics or economics

[topaz veldt]

I miss 4090s

[turbid locust]

I got gas for $2.83/gal like an hour ago

[hoary hatch]

$3.nice

[wise bear]

I miss ddr4 being new tbh

[topaz veldt]

LIES

[turbid locust]

[devout ridge]

wait what, i thought ddr3 was still new?

[wise bear]

Iroh..

[topaz veldt]

Cordon Bleu told us gas is not in the $2s

[turbid locust]

ok

[warped mountain]

No I drive 35,000 miles a year, expected fuel budget is 15 to $18,000. Was expecting by February 5th for fuel to be as promised and it wasn't so I had to extend the budget (and the truck gets 1/2 what it's supposed to.)

[devout ridge]

you telling me my purchase of 512gb of ddr3 was dumb?

[warped mountain]

Yes thats correct.

[hoary hatch]

Holy bajeesus fuck

[random flame]

[devout ridge]

i think the last time i bought gas it was 1.90usd per gallon (like 1 week ago)

[hoary hatch]

I drive 600 miles a month, if that, with a fuel budget of $60-70

[warped mountain]

Now remember the president's responsible if it's a shutdown it's because he's a failure. ... But you already knew that

[gentle gale]

35k miles a year good lord

[topaz veldt]

This is the most unserious thing you've said after the $8500 apple inventory - you expected anything to change in 15 days after inaugeration? Just stop dude, go away already.

[hoary hatch]

I only spend so much on fuel because my car is shit for city mpg and I drive a lot of short trips

[topaz veldt]

LOL what

[wise bear]

You sure do a lot of yapping for driving 35k miles a year buddy
