Me waiting for my central A/C to be repaired. Literally stopped working after the power company installed a new meter

fast specs
i just have most of my bios settings at default
yeah same
Should i enable secure boot 
Nope i dont think so
Ass
For some reason, yes
As well
Wait, they banned Orbeez?
No?
its pikachu
goku
it says they got banned this month federally cause its a safety hazard for kids
Hmm i’m in bios rn and it says secure boot mode is in custom
eat them its good for your health
And for os it says its other os
do you dual boot
tbh
i say leave it alone
unless someone here knows of it will mess up your install
enabling it after
Hmm i just windows 11 installed
enabling secure boot doesnt mess up windows
yea. its a mobo feature.
yeah i know i didnt know if it would cause weird issues
enabling it just tells windows how its booting.
hm
enabling it or disabling is only requires a restart
i keep secure boot on but virtualization off
im trying to include tpm and secure features in my script
I recommended watching a secure boot tutorial before attempting anything tbh
you never know as PCs behave differently
Now where tf is that virtualization setting
I turned it on
The computer
Is
Not
Turning on
Jkjk
HI
now you can finally play battlefield 6
now you can play fortnite
if you did you would've been facing secure boot/tpm issues
are u guys gonna get crimson desert
no
no
NO

LOL
why not
dont people not get games when its multi
favorite single player title go
i buy singleplayer games
but its an mmo
they say its an open world single player game
thats black desert that is an MMO
is it not an mmo style game, but just singleplayer ( which defeats the purpose )
for now its single
I will finally have another boot drive thanks to bacca
2tb...
yea, thats cool but its not worth it if its just you

Nah; it’s just something to get by
if it had coop? sure.
No
i'll even take 256
Water beads manufactured after March 12, 2026, must meet the new federal performance, labeling and testing requirements designed to reduce the risk of serious injury or death.
Thats why slay the spire 2 solos any game
No ban on ones made in the past
have u guys tried mewgenics
like, people enjoyed Skyrim, but it was always a siongleplayer game
waiting for skyblivion
og or remaster?
Both
dude is asking for a heated discussion
No further questions thank you
it might work on the steam deck apparently

he thinks RE5 is best one in series. its pure bait, ignore it
I dont even play bethesda games 😳
maybe if you can install the mod
idk
damn @rancid juniper roombata likes oblivion plastered
never tried skyrim ?
they're not gonna have it up on steam workshop?
like endereal?
no idea
on the topic of SSD's, i wont be expanding to 12 TB for awhile
RE5 is good but its not THE best RE game
re2 remake was awesome
I played like 3 hours of it and haven't touched it since
playing re4 remake rn
Western Digital has been pushing to supplying enterprises right now
s'what im sayin'!
i just played some modlists for a bit to find out they had dogwater nah dogpuddle performance
It is kinda true tho 
Can’t be bait if it’s true
Oblivion > Skyrim

its def top 5, but not best.
ok but will RE5 Remake top it tho?
🤔
i would like a re1 remake first ngl
I don't play RE I was talking about Oblivion vs Skyrim
lol
wanna know what happened in that so called mansion
No. cause it wont have Sheva's tribal costum. that shit SLAPPED
Oblivion is better
no balls on the director
Fantasy > tribal
RE was always about fantasy, look at RE8
Skyrim has better mods but the actual game, Oblivion is better
agree to disagree, cause that was really good.
it looks like oblivion has more indepth gameplay systems ngl
Yes
which has more bugs
Oblivion
or
Skyrim
It also had wayyyy more quests that didn’t feel like the same exact quest in another town
And the groups you join weren't as trash as in Skyrim
yes
Like I gotta grab potatoes from an orge for some pie? Hell yeah
apparently oblivion plastered still has the og bugs and new ones
Then I’ll become the patron saint for the area??
and they've ditched the game

DEADLINE DELIVERY - Coming to Steam March 16, 2026.
Strap in, floor it, and deliver the goods — before the bomb goes off. Play as Carl, a monkey driving a mail truck rigged with explosives on a tight deadline. Play solo or with friends in this chaotic, explosive monkey mayhem!

like crapcom ditched dragons dogma
Starfield 2.0 will be the best software for people suffering with insomnia
can help them sleep for once
The entire shtick was put modern graphics on Oblivion and nothing else, what did you expect?
oblivion plastered is truly a befitting moniker
Bethesda has made it clear they have no intention of ever willingly going back to their older games except Skyrim
looks like Haste but with vehicles, seems fun
Anything but fallout 5
Anything that gets remastered or remade will be done when Microsoft drags Bethesda kicking and screaming and will probably go the same way as Oblivion remaster
i missed quake
I.e. Bethesda telling somebody else to go and slap a UE5 graphical layer on the game and quietly release it
TES Daggerfall was a giant proc gen game.
As in horrifically giant
As in literally the size of the UK
In game
imagine trying to do that today
No it is just that that much proc gen results in questionable game quality
When you have to physically travel the distance on foot, that much proc gen content is a nightmare
Which is why one of the primary mods for Daggerfall is makeshift fast travel
better hit that restart
on another note I am trying out a new desktop environment. trying to remember keybinds is something else
Every battle needs a hero. Every hero needs a tank.
The new [ FOUNDATIONS ] video covers how the concept of human-machine synergy is ingrained into the DNA of World of Tanks: HEAT. While each Agent has a broad battlefield role, within these roles lie countless opportunities for experimentation, optimization, and vehicle customization, letting ...
@rancid juniper waiting for a release date
And not fast travel as in select a desitination on the map and you go, I mean literally a time multiplier for whenever you are outside a town
Niri?
So it was a groundbreaking game for the generation
Have we had a groundbreaking game this generation?

ye
It’s cool but too much for me to remember
was messing around with hyprland and then i found niri. feel like it's kind of silly to use kde when im almost always snapping windows with arrowkeys anyway
Maybe because I don’t actually main it
Tru…
Oh wait nvm u were answering cloud
I do like it more
me still waiting for a release date for this
And actual benchmarks

Last year, Lisuan Technology introduced its Lisuan LX 7G106 graphics card, one of the most promising GPU technologies for gamers emerging from China. Today, during the AWE 2026 stream on the Chinese BiliBili platform, the company announced that its GPUs will ship on June 18, with pre-orders starting...
@sinful blade

What if
Apple becomes that 4th competitor
Yeah I guess it makes sense because I only have it on my laptop with cachy on it, which isn’t even the main thing I use, along with the main reason even picking it on there was to have a lighter system and try something different
But the times that I have used it, it goes hard
oh yeah
And pretty easy to change the binds too
The most Daggerfall did was be responsible for most of TES's original lore that got turned into the modern lore
My cachy install with nothing on it and niri is a little over 1000 total packages
GTA 7 will happen before apple makes dgpus
Kde was like 1300 something but I also had extra stuff on there so not totally fair, but still
looks interesting, die shot looks like an nvidia chip
I also have to say after watching linus attempt the linux challenge again. I get what he means talking about cachyos being "flavour of the week" but man the cachy team does a great job optimizing for games. there are so many tiny config things that they have setup to just work out of the box
Oh u meant dgpus specifically
yea
They have also been around for a while, just was underground
I think linus is just doomed to be on windows forever
Bro just doesn’t get it
Are u really not gonna get crimson desert and try out redstone?
i have no $$$, ill just watch some videos about it
😭
i might get when its on major sale
Sell ur 7800xt 
just like every other game
if he keeps picking popos then yeah probably lol
already listed
Something behind the scenes is definitely happening

I'm not getting it 
I never buy new games
Wait a year or two for sales is my mo
Patient gamer technique
And if I really can't wait that long, there is always the option to wait a week or two
🌊
Here’s the problem
“offers 12 GB of GDDR6 across a 192-bit wide memory bus”
better than RTX 5050 9gb
That’s a 3060
I feel like this gpu will be prominently used in net cafes and wouldn't cost as much
does it really?
If it can have like idk a 3050/b570 price tag then it'd be alright
Nah 3060 looks quite different
You can get a 5700xt used for $100
another problem to point out
The real problem is you guys are acting like this'll ever leave China 

3060 die doesn't have a wall around it
THAT SHITTY ASS CONNECTER MADE ME GET A NEW PSU
The 7900GRE was made by a non Chinese company
argh..
This is a Chinese company making a Chinese gpu for China
I'd like to see benchmarks of it if it'll ever happen
You really think if it is actually good that somebody won't get bribed by Nvidia to impose an import ban?
with how corrupt things are rn, dang thats a possibility
Happened with ram
'Damaging to national security'
gonna avoid micron like a plague
Micron’s avoiding us 💀
Good, then you can spend your money on one of the two other cartel members

do you mean CXMT?
Yeah
my ram uses that
Woah
The amendment to the regulations for a ban on Chinese ram is open for public review until April 20th
After which it will be banned with 100% certainty
Doing everything they can to make consumers run out of options and only rely on whats available here in the US
stuff like cpu-z lets you know or hwinfo
sk hynix, micron, and samsung are like the big three
yea
They make up the remaining market or merged with other ones or were bought out
ancient ram arts
Ig people really haven’t gotten smarter in all these millenniums
Like the behavior of big orgs today
Way too similar to ancient civs
Elpida, which was one of the ones that were sued for cartel activity, is a subsidiary of Micron after it went bankrupt and was bought. Infineon is still independent and making ram but they are primarily for b2b or military.
Nanya is the same as Infineon but only b2b
Are they publicly traded companies or private rn?
Mafia
Elpida was actually a merger of Hitachi and NEC's dram business, they bought out Mitsubishi's dram division and Toshiba sold to Micron.
Real
Elpida...
Vram so wack it made the GPU slower
I remember that firsthand with my GTX 650
Infineon and Nanya are publically traded
This is a really nice mouse ngl
Damn well one of em is military so ig its expected
Infineon is only on the German stock market because it is German
Nanya is on the Taiwan stock exchange because Taiwan company
Well if it means anything their wireless division was sold to Intel who then used it to put LTE chips in the iPhone 7 and 8 before the smartphone segment was eventually bought by Apple and then used to make the C1 modems for their phones
Goddamn
wireless makes a huge difference ngl, i still suck at tracking but i would miss even more when trying to land headshots in cyberpunk usually
Damn cyberpunk stutters hard with discord open
Wireless what?
Mouse
Disable hardware acceleration
Previous vs new mouse models?
Prev was the razer basilisk wired v3 i think, i got a new one today called the op1 4k v2
Would u like to shake hands?
And claw grip too
Right cause basilisk has the thumb rest 💀
Roko's Basilisk
Yeah claw grip is impossible on the basilisk
It was frustrating cuz i kept trying to instinctively claw the mouse for more control when playing arc raiders 
Boy what the hell boy
Lmao ur famous
he didn't read the post but hey its there
Still ngl i hope udna series turn out to be good ngl
RR between AMD and Nvidia is very different when seeing that Crimson Desert Footage
It makes sense why someone would be pissed if they spent that much money and then found out
Amd cards were strongly priced this generation ngl
They basically ditched rdna 2, and 3 is just there
I’m personally thoroughly impressed with the 9060xt
Rdna 2 i think its fine if its lacking in features cuz at the time they were strong offerings in terms of price and performance while dlss was not much to talk abt, rdna 3 tho… yeah rdna 3 users got shafted hard i especially feel bad for anyone regretting buying the xtx at a grand cuz thats what the 4080supers were going for and ray traced and even path traced games were alr playable with that card
They called it “fine wine” after it took them like until 2022 to fix rdna 2 drivers
Xtx was decent if u got it like 800
Most got it for a grand 💀

It checks out.. the longer the better
Hence its fine wine.. they could make it decade if they want xD
Sorry you have three overdue books please return them before checking out more
Amd is for brokies Iike me .. brokie gang
Just get 5 grand nvidia guys.. brrr fps
I still have rdna1 i just turn off any rtx related stuff and use fsr3 its alright
@rancid juniper https://www.reddit.com/r/radeon/s/axN1Rtytio 💀
I feele they should buy gpu now they gonna be stuck on amd soon if they keep waiting for gpu to drop
Hihi
Oh damn, no wonder they’re mad
Ray regeneration is still a lot better than having to use the standard denoiser
insanity sub
Yeah ray tracing is finally accessible in a potentially impressive title
Idk about that but these two denoisers are sort of crucial in crimson desert
Man… xbox really does make people insane with their influence… this all started cuz of their gdc showcase with project helix 💀
Nvidia is nearing 95% market share iirc
Yeah and in the df clips they’re at 4k upscaled from 50% internal resolution usually upscaling at that level introduces a lot of noise and haziness unless u opt in for dlss 4.5, img quality on amd side may be better at native or quality level upscaling
We just gotta wait and see
Intel is selling a core ultra 250k plus 18 core cpu for $199
Sad that it's on a dead platform
Oh man 🥀
enticing, if only these processors worked with lga1700 💔
If only these processors worked
They'll most likely work I'm just kidding
Or am I

Couldn’t intel improve their rep if they designed a socket with long term support in mind 
Couldn't Intel improve their rep?
They could

I would get intel for my next cpu if they released a competitor for the ryzen 7 x3d tier
In like
5 years

Yeah intel might still be a lil cooked
They are doing it eventually
They just have to panic away from E cores
And then panic away from no E cores
And then panic back to no E cores
They need to get sober from e cores
And then maybe they'll stack cache
And then panic away from cache stacking
And then panic back to E cores
Then maybe start thinking about hyperthreading again
And then down a couple bottles of rum and shut down their fabs
Hyperthreading is useless for gaming
They already are
Actually they have been
Yes I know
so peak....
But to be fair though they were actually doing pretty well without it
I was making sarcastic remarks about Intel's ability to stick with features and attributes of their cpus
And their lack of it
At the same time though, it is nice to see how they are always tinkering
They were the first ones to ship a cpu with separate data and power lines, gotta find the term again
Ah right
Backside power delivery
They were the first to do this. even though it was extremely limited, the fact that they produced such a design is cool
tsk. ngreedai is still the best whether people like it or not
Yeah rdna 4 is like… between rtx 30 and 40 series rn
People prolly wont trust amd for like a couple generations now
Between 30 and 40 series? What is that supposed to mean?
Featurewise
Only their upscaler is so far usable
But they dont have fg and ray reconstruction
And and as showcased in the df vid of crimson desert
Its not upto par with nvidia
Backside Power Delivery promises huge efficiency and performance advantages for modern computer chips, but also changes the semiconductor manufacturing process. Let's go an a deep-dive into Intel's PowerVia technology.

Man, ever since we pumped up automod and dyno, there’s not much we do

This compares Discord alternatives to migrate off of Discord and onto other platforms; however, as a twist, we're focusing purely on self-hosted alternatives to the Discord chat application today. There are a lot of options that aren't self-hosted, but we specifically wanted to fi...
So what if I make a copy of neweggcord

Sued by Wegg 
problem with self hosting or discord alternatives is most cost money to run a server/hub, and that's more than what most companies would be willing to spend
You don't need to self host on fluxer or stoat

It is quite easy to do, just use this python bot to clone everything
I gotta do it with my server
well I think that's why he specifically highlights selfhostable services. must less likely to be selling out to advertisers and such and a good number of people already selfhost services for privacy reasons
Actually will be sued by Wegg 
the chances that at least one person in your friend group owning a server is not 0 in many of the communities that are even concerned with privacy
Welp, @grand wasp guess I’m stealing your job now
I guess theo wasn't the only person in on the coup
"Unofficial port of the Newegg server from Discord"

I GOTTA see this
oh i misunderstood the video
They need to do one where they test each tech discord lol
Rate them based off of best help acquired, best members, best moderation team etc
It would be epic
I think I am ok without that
Newegg server review: The mods were unhelpful and everyone kept spamming 'Steve?
'
we don't want more random people mass joining here 💀
you're kinda right
that kind of publicity would be a blessing and a curse
we'd need like 50 more mods
man i should start daytrading, i have yet to actually gamble and i dont have much else to do so i dont see why not
If you don't know what you are doing, it can be
and i have no clue
but i mean all trading maybe besides insider trading is a form of gambling
Do not day trade right now
This is probably the worst time to get into stocks
The economy is literally on the verge of exploding and we are starting to experience the impacts of the greatest oil shortage in recent history including the shocks of the 70s
We are in everbody empty your oil reserves now crisis mode
Don't have a job so I need something. Unemployment 344 biweekly ain't cutting it
I'm being serious
If I could afford to I'd pull my money out of stocks entirely right now
So am I, anything is still better than nothing.
Almost 21 with practically no income. Roth is almost not worth doing due to age so only few things I could do to have any decent money would require me making it to 70 to enjoy my money
jeez
If you're broke how are you planning to make money trading?
day trading is possibly one of the worst ways to try to make money when you are strapped for cash
invest in the penny stock that goes 10x
Especially since you need 25k to actually day trade efficiently 
Otherwise you get 3 day trades every 5 business days
Or it is 4 and then you get blocked, I can't rember
Penny stocks that volatile will just as likely result in you losing all your money unless you manage to luck out and jump in before the price shoots up
no
just be smart
With practically no income you should absolutely not day trade
Day trading is a side hustle for people with fairly deep pockets
Just be smart 🗣️
just say youre not
smh
just make money
why invest in something that goes down
only invest in stocks that go up
Yup i’m not which is why I try not to make stupid decisions
Maybe but without just working fast food there's nothing else
Do you have 25k you are willing to lose
I have about 300 to my name
I'll never see 25k in any of my accounts durning my life time
yeah you'd probably see gains of a couple cents per week if you were lucky
Sadly it is, just a way for the rich to get even richer
I mean I'd be happy with that. It'll add up
not even 25k???
not nearly as fast as just working in fast food
thats 260$ over 50 years
thats not "adding up" no offense
if you gain 10 cents a week
only ups no downs
exactly
Without penny pinching no probably not
You are required to have 25k in your account to pattern day trade more than 3-4 times every 5 business days
Yep no, I have worked retail and I know fast food is even worse.
You are not going to make serious money on 300 dollars with 3-4 day trades a week
Without college or trade school you have them two options fast food or retail
you'll probably end up with $200 after the day trading ong
It'll add up eventually
No it won't
Put it all on sandisk then make out ahead
You are significantly more likely to lose most of your $300 on day trading
^
day trading isnt a miracle
And it ain't playing Wallstreetbets roulette
somehow I am overloading the cpu on my router...
how
There is a reason why that reddit thread is mostly loss gore
And it is because yoloing money on whims gets you nothing
why get financial advice from people who can't think past boomer stocks when it comes to investing
try to get a job as a janitor or something and gain access to the internal job boards of some companies to try to find some internal posting for something you can do that is better paying
at least that would not be a total dead end job like fast food
Yeah just give all your money to a crypto scam instead like a real young man
tell me you have no clue without telling me
warehouse jobs outside of amazon is also usually minimum highschool education and physical fitness
Options for that would be the school or the factory that I have been trying to get jnto for 5 years
I think it's the fact that the router is dealing with all the vlan traffic, traffic identification and filtering, running multiple vpns with multiple continuous clients, also acting as a nvr recorder
i'd avoid amazon though mainly due to working conditions but other warehouses may have it slightly better if you can get in
i dont think its wise to day trade with 300
just saying
that MIGHT be a little bit too small of capital to do anything with
its low enough to be worth a try if you can afford it
first thing he thinks of is "crypto scams" for anything past boomer stocks too XDDDD
Yea my general idea is if it's not 10+ thousand don't bother trading stocks. But thought maybe could be fun
guess it depends on the area but I've known people that work in amazon warehouses that had good experiences
if you wanna do it for fun then go ahead
research it yourself. if anyone was successful in doing it do you think theyd be here all day?
people have spent more on less fun things
Stocks aren't boomer. You want boomer you can go look at some actively managed mutual funds
when did i say ALL stocks are boomer
But yea I'll probably just keep it in savings let it build there until enough worth putting in a cd then a retirement account once 35 ish or I get a house which ever comes first. Probably 35
what stocks do you think arent boomer
ok so youre bsing
Say boomer like stocks are not a good thing. Pretty much the only way to make any kind of money
😭
sure if not spoonfeeding u = bs'ing
the retirement accounts are nice but especially when you are younger it could be more worth throwing that money into education, whether that be school or courses or whatever
i like stocks, ive made almost a thousand off them with money from my job
from very low risk stuff
For school I'd probably need Adderall that way I could retain the info
I can't back up what I'm saying so instead I'm going to imply you are infantile when objecting to the fact that I'm making stuff up 
ah we skipping to the projection stage, good self expose
you make a claim, dont back it up, then insult when asked about it
if thats not reflection, then what is
i never made a "claim". im not arguing with someone who doesnt understand the basics
again, reflection
your reading comprehension isnt my issue neither are pop psy buzzwords
yeah, i usually use safer stocks as long term savings, high yield savings accounts for short term savings, and the rest goes into retirement
For the few stocks I own they are all dividend paying stocks
my second "job" is purely retirment stuff, its a family job that ive been "working" at since 13 so im very lucky to have that. and i put like 80%+ of my actual job earnings into stocks
Damn buddy got lucky and got a family job
i have like 2k in an etf, 3.5k in a hysa, and then 3k in physical assets
I reinstalled overwatch 2 and it is just dead set at 600fps
I use etfs in taxable accounts, a tdf for retirement, bond etfs or hysas depending on current rates and yield for short term income and chill
Really do need to get rid of the fps cap for modern hardware
im set for retirement
post lows
Damn rich to
i just dont spend money
im just stuck between deciding whether I really want to go into tech or into photography/film
The funny part is that dividend paying stocks are the boomer strategy. People who are older and want a stable income prefer those over higher risk and faster growth potential companies.
Latter seems more works you have to go outside and get sweaty
its just purely passive income thats very low risk
Well not all dividend stocks
well typically I thought people go for growth in the earlier years and then dividend based stocks when they are closer to retirement
I agree. If we're going to call anything boomer stocks though then it's reliable dividend blue chip stuff. Or something like vanguard or mutual/index.
I mean it pays higher than bank and I don't have to buy and sell 24/7 to make any money off of it. Just easy money
Passively managed funds aren't boomer tho
Ahh boring life. Need to spend some. No point in having a crap ton of money when you are 60 and on your death bed vs having some fun now and enough money for family to put you in the ground with put going in massive debt
xd
60 and on deathbed 😭
the boomers might know something
what
are you eating mcdonalds 10 times a week
nvm you wouldnt live to 60 if that was the case
If you really wanted boomer you'd go to a brokerage firm, get an actively managed account run by someone who just puts it into an actively managed mutual fund they get kickbacks for investing you in and never questioning why the broker is always taking a good chunk of money to 'manage' your brokerage account
Not really
Pretty much
Depending on what you need to be doing with your money an IRA is a very good idea
early retirement wouldnt be a bad thing if you make enough to live off of for the rest of your life
No just what I'd consider expiration time
man wtf
yeah
but im saying a retirement account
my roth ira will be well into the 7 figures when im retiring
only 80s???
💀
late 80s is pretty good for my family
Damn jealous I wish I started mine 2 almost 3 years ago but to late
most of my family lived to their late 90s lmao
I use my IRA to reduce my taxable income from fund distributions by keeping higher yield stuff in it
dang
at least you got one, better than a lot of people
one of my grandparents are still alive at 97 ish years old
My family gets yo 80s to 90s but I'm hoping early
still walking and cooking for himself
well... idk if i wanna live that long
thats the thing
I don't have one.. that's why I said to late
We brought our grandma from the village to the city despite knowing how much worse the Air quality in the city is
its late and my caffeine is dying out
I'm not expecting to live to retirement so my account is mostly just me building money to give to my sister when I croak 
you bought??
your family wants the inheritence frfr
speeding it up
@grand wasp poll question:
How often do you upgrade/change your setup (computer, desk, peripherals, etc)
-
every few months or so
-
once a year
-
Very seldom (more than a year)
-
I want to, but it's too expensive.
every few months is crazy
oh thats kinda dark
My grandfather always had a room in the house being redesigned at any given time. So I guess he was constant.
I'm a fat guy from an immediate family of fat people with a predisposition to heart disease due to my father, I ain't getting there brother
damn
rip
tbh including peripheral I probably do change things out every few months but major hardware is only every few years
i come from a family of tall mostly skinny ppl
This includes early deaths and kids. 80s or 90s dying of 'being old' is pretty common.
My father didn't collect SS and I'm not planning on it either
My father was born and raised in the US 

The only SS that applied to him was Social Security
My grandmother (mom's side) is the same age. Still walks every day, talks, etc.
well i consider like 70 old
so late 80s is super old
i mean, you aren't wrong
Same. I've been modded my setup using my 3D printer like once a week lately.
average age is like 68
I also wouldn't be eager to make it that long. After like 70 it looks pretty miserable.
It's interesting that in the US you don't get Senior benefits till like what 60 now? That means they consider 60 to be OLD.
my grandma is like... 80 and she still goes on vacations
in B.C i saw a guy in his early 90s driving a saturn mercury from like the 70's just like last year
she was in switzerland gliding the other week
I think it's 67
I thought it was 65
i WISH it was 60
I know I. Alaska you start getting limited benefits at 55 then full around 65.
depends on mental state
my grandpa at 70 was as active as someone in their 40s probably
There might be a sliding scale too. Like you tough it out a few extra years you get higher social security payout.
he walked everywhere to go shopping
nowadays he still walks but only within the house
he only stopped tending to the garden like when he turned 92 or something
bro was growing vegs to eat
until 92
My dad retired at 70 but he also had cancer and used up 6 months of accumulated sick days to get there.
This is really frustrating.
I have dislocated the right side of my jaw twice today eating.
💀
My dad's cousin is 97 and he is in good shape. Still strong and goes out doing farm work clearing brush and playing with his tractors. That's pretty rare though.
even earlier than that, apparently it's a late 50's car (i didnt say the model correcly but it was some mercury car)
I'm 37 and already feeling like I'm on the downslope.
Combination of muscle spasms caused by my back injury and having a extended range of motion in all my joints is literal pain most of the time.
I'm not sure if I'd be happy or not to make it to 60. Live the American dream of living at work going into almost generational debt then dying at 60
you have to be very active (but not breaking yourself) in your younger years + luck of genetics + general luck to be able to be that fit at 97
got damn
There is. You can start collecting Social Security at the first month you are fully 62. The benefits are decreased by 30% if you take at 62 and the decrease is on a sliding scale until 67, at which point if you take your Social Security it will be normal retirement age with no decrease
Taking it after 67 up to age 70 will increase your benefit
I highly doubt social security will even be a thing when I'm that old
It will
Social Security will not be repealed
Would be lucky to have any work at all in the coming Ai age
Benefits will be reduced though
Starting 2030 or so the benefits will automatically get cut about 18-20% if the trust fund runs out
Didn't have places to work before AI if you don't have college or trade school you make no more than 15k a year unless very lucky or like a few people i know given the silverspoon since seems like everyone but me got that option
Your making me fear for my later years lmao. I am still in early years and I already have chronic back pain due to four damaged discs in my spine, damaged right knee cap (leg slips while walking), tendon damage in my wrists, and slowly losing eye sight...
cooked
Rand Paul vs the old vote. My money is on the old vote.
I'm almost 21 and have a hard time remembering things so it's over for me rip
not really any way to sugarcoat it
if you got f'ed up when you're young, you aint getting better when you're old
it'll only be worse
Welp just gotta live to the fullest.
Make sure to always give your kids the silverspoon as well if you can they will need it and their lives will be SO MUCH BETTER
Where at?
Tomorrow isn't guaranteed. Today might be
Michigan, the place of nothing
I hope Neurolink eye replacements become accessible or something else improves to fix my eyes (black blind spots in vision)
That is what i tell myself before eating chicken frys everyday
Poor sleep?
That you wish Neurolink eye replacements will be a thing?🤨
Yeah I am quite confused by that message as well lmao.
That's like half min wage. Part time?
8 hours at least a night most of the time. Just brain don't work
I guess there are worse things to say to yourself when eating chicken fries
Most of the jobs you can get without the silverspoon are part time yes
If Adderall was not controlled like it is life for the silverspoon lacking would be so much better
Medicaid covers Adderall usually afaik
I'm not gonna be lucky enough to qualify for it
Had 2 friends go through it and they got so much smarter and I'm jealous
Applying for Medicaid makes your smarter? Schools hate this one simple trick
Talking about Adderall
Yes I know which helps them use their brain over all
it won't help you if you don't have adhd though
Ehh one way to find out
No?
ADHD is treated with adderall. If you don't have ADHD it isn't going to help
Most of the folks I know that are diagnosed with ADHD become like zombies when taking Adderal or other medications meant to help with focus.
And you aren't going to get a script for it either
yeah that too, not all adhd meds work for all people with adhd either
Like sure they can focus slightly better but their cognitive function goes down the drain.
They also become insufferable to try and have a conversation with.
Giving mindless yes, yeah, kind of responses.
adderal did help me but the side effects weren't worth it
I need something to take. If can't get it working just donate for a college kid to cut open and learn where things of a brain are at
That or my turn with luck and silverspoon
???
@gleaming sedge I know you said you're getting sleep, but how is the quality do you actually feel rested when waking up? Also what is your diet like.
You don't need to take random medicines 
Eating chicken, drinking milk, consuming fried greasy food, etc all make the brain feel tired.
eating chicken and drinking milk? huh?
You can take medicines targeted at the issues you need medical assistance with via a doctor's diagnosis and prescription
He was talking about eating fried chicken earlier
Donate brain for science
oh
Tryptophan?
I did not
It's not a great diet at all but either don't like the stuff or to expensive to have a good diet plus needs to be something gf wants to or she won't eat
Ye Nihid is the chicken fry eye replacement guy 
Yes. But Also greasy foods, starches, etc in general tend to make people feel tired
I don't feel tired though
Do you feel energetic?
chilk
I hear ya regarding cost.
It's really hard to eat super healthy.
Longs moving or doing something yea. Like driving walking cleaning stuff like that
Hardly even worth it most of the time anymore as well
Are you trying to remember things?
It does come up when I need to and some times I can other I cant
Like when you see something do you apply yourself to remembering that. Some people do it by associating names or others with numbers or patterns
At times yea
Facts
I suggest trying to do that with most things if you're struggling to remember. Should help.
Ai is taking over onlyfans
How you remember doesn't matter so long as you're creating an association that you can remember quickly.
Even they are feeling the burn
Idk, imma just go to bed I'm upset with my self and need to cool down before gf gets home in the morning
Ya know gotta make sure she thinks I'm fine
if she a real one, you could open up to her
Y'know it is fine to be not fine man?
I know and have but part of it involves her
Ah
Pasture raised
A factory farm is a pasture if you have grass somewhere in it frfr
I want a job but need a job that's early morning and afternoon like get out by 2 or 3 so I can have time with her and no Fridays would be ideal along with no Saturdays are a must. But a job like that pretty much does not exist so if I get one that does not do that I'm not around as much she might want to break up but if I don't get a job she might want to break up and I can not loose her
Tell her to get a job as well so you both would be busy at the same time
She's full time 3rd shift
Cage free and free range mean way less than people think too.
We let the chickens roam free on our gun range, where anybody can come and shoot a chicken for us for free 
Should a YouTuber be there
Arctic Silver Ceramique 2 Thermal Compound
Is this any good?
Considering he made a movie, yes
It did not however win anything from what I am seeing
Since it released this year, he'll be back next year for any nominations it gets for that one
do you really have to make a movie to be in attendance at the oscars
maybe as a vip?
The audience largely consists of people involved with films or rich folks, so yes 
The audience will always be members of stuff being nominated, members of the organization that manages the Oscars and the media. Nobody in the audience is ever going to be a normal person
There has only been two times the audience was opened up to other people, 1936 when SAG boycotted it and 1944 to embrace the homefront spirit and to pay respects to the military

Markiplier got a special invite since Iron Lung was a success
alright people.
im going dark for the next 2 days
Ye
finally moving the 2nd mobo into the dual system case. everything is prepped. shouldnt take long but i have to spend some time marking my drives and cables before moving
actually wait
@dusk knot YOu hear realy quick
oh maybe i should jsut ask @tall pine
the weekend is already over
You know Arctic Silver isn't Arctic right? Like the mx-4 people. I'd probably get mx7 or maybe duronaut or nt-h2.

F great it's now raining inside
Didn’t know
Just saw a 25g tube for $8
At this point there is no doubt many formulas of thermal paste that is much better
get kryonaut
its not conductive.
Also iirc, Cermique is not even really for cpus
tubes are like $6-8.
Or at least consumer cpus
last update for awhile.
i wanted to ask if disk management locks sata uses
whats better nowadays, mx-7 or duronaut
I have no idea.
like, if i have 2 drives on 1 and 3 and i combine them, but i move it to 1 and 2, will it keep the data and recognize its being used together
k thank then.
Don't get kryonaut. Duronaut performs better for regular coolers and it won't fail as easily if it gets hot.
never heard or used it.
i have a large tube of kryonaut 
Consume
37g tube from two years ago
-# (Don't actually consume plz)

doesnt thermal paste dry out.
kryoanaut can
Kryonaut is good up to 80C. It's about the worst one you can pick for a gpu or a laptop or even regular air cooling if you have a hot enough cpu.
First party chart from TG.
Duronaut is super thick though and looks annoying to work with.
i need to change my paste soon on my daily driver
i feel like their own testing on it imparts some bias.
i know.
They're biased against themselves?
if someone is selling a new product, it would be in there best interest to market is as better than the old ones.
not saying they are. im loking at some forums and videos of it. seems to be slightly better than kryo.
Iirc, contact pads arent needed for AM5 cause they dont warp like intels.
It's great for applying the right amount of thermal paste though cause it wont do down the sides.

Why is it so LONG
oke
16 fl oz
Thanks
