Schenker is German and has some ridiculously specc’d laptops. But be ready to pay through the nose.

Like, I’m talking 200Hz 16:10 4k+ screens with 5090s and up to 256 GB of RAM.

My favorite rendition. OAM Trio - Puff the Magic Dragon.

I always liked the song “Black Sabbath”, track 1 on the album Black Sabbath by the band Black Sabbath

I need to make a trek to the giant blue box. Lingonberry Master Race!

Don’t @ me cranberry peasants.

1-800-EAT-SHIT in my ass, talk about kismet

(Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol, awesome band I just discovered)

You really Britta’d this painting…

Genius of Modern Music, Vol. 1 is probably as good a starting point as anything. My personal favorites are Brilliant Corners and Monk and Coltrane at Town Hall.

If you want a cool album jacket, there are a bunch of greats, but I’d mention Underground and Monk’s Music as great albums with awesome cover art. Whatever you go with, good luck and welcome aboard!

I didn’t watch yet, but probably something to do with Hedy Lamarr. I just wanted to say “that’s HEDLEY!”. Harvey Korman’s best role, IMO.

Kind of insane how one of the biggest film stars from the 1930’s and 40’s got access to secret Nazi technology and used it to invent the signal hopping tech that led to the creation of GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth.

Swap the red LEDs for blue, should tie the whole room together.

The wall plate is a great idea if you don’t mind cutting holes in the wall.

Honestly, I’d grab a couple of acoustic tiles to put on either side of the TV and chuck all that shit behind them. Maybe cinch up and ziptie anything I know doesn’t need to move for a while.

I just realized the B side has an endless loop on the last chord! Tripped me the fuck out for about 30 seconds.

Take your dog for a walk if you’re able. Go for 2 or 3 a day if you can stand it.

Assuming you weren’t on the lowest dose of whatever med it was and you didn’t step down for fear of heart related issues, you might need a week or 3 to readjust to raw emoting.

Find a group you can join and talk to/listen to. Look for a CBT group, a local men’s group, a singles group maybe. Volunteer at a community/senior center if you can stand to.

Barring all those options being feasible, go find a 12-step group and bring donuts. Tell them you aren’t comfortable sharing just yet and sit and listen.

It’s unfortunately very natural to feel hopeless and helpless in these trying times, just don’t give up hope and be willing to accept help if it comes your way.

If you’re running a bunch of virtual machines or LLMs or something that needs a lot of RAM(video production/editing), it could be beneficial to run all 4 simultaneously if they’ll play nice with each other.

That said, it’ll certainly be slower than running the faster of the two kits in proper dual-channel mode for gaming. If you’re a novice or get easily fed up, I’d go with q. Be sure to activate XMP.

You got any more of them pixels, boss? Is this a very subtle April Fools prank?

Does anybody know what the number of games is? I’d be interested to hear.

It’d be hilarious if it’s more than 20.

The scarousal is powerful with this one.

Coincidence or did you get that email from eBay today, too?

They probably got hacked and we’ll find out about it next year.

It says Continue without disabling on the bottom of that banner, which if you do, it gives you access to the whole site without hassling you again. At least it does on my end with Firefox.

Obviously it’s bullshit to constantly badger you, but it doesn’t currently restrict access to anything.

Kislev!

I got some VOLTME cables and a charging brick on aliexpress about 4 years ago that have been sturdy as a rock. They actually deliver 100W according to my laptop’s charging icon.

They’re braided and basically impossible to twist the wrong way. Here they are on amazon if you don’t want to wait the 20-odd days for shipping from China.

Add a smaller boot drive to run the OS and programs from, for sure. Maybe 2 if he wants to dual boot Windows and Linux(Steam OS full release is on the horizon).

If you can snag a 5090 in 2-3 days when they release, you’ll definitely be future-proofing yourself a bit more. There’s a liquid cooled version of the 5090 by Gigabyte that’s sure to be one of the best performing aftermarket variants.

I’d also swap the motherboard with the Asrock Taichi X870E, which is the best featured X870E board IMO. I’ve also had loads of issues with Asus products. Otherwise, it looks pretty maxed out. You win all the brownie points!
