  • I picked up a game server with Indifferent broccoli thinking my friends and I could build mega factories with all that sweet sweet server ram. Set the server to not pause on exit. Build my initial product lines and let the server build items while I sleep. I had damn near infinite building supplies by the second day and one friend came on, complained about the start area, and restarted the game in his preferred starting area. And haven’t seen anyone since. Meanwhile I’m on Tier 6 and have built entire tube subway lines for my friends to head to all corners of the map. And all I get in discord is “sweet” and “great” literally these same guys were talking non-stop and played for hours when I got an abiotic factor server, and beat it in a week. They even voted on Satisfactory as the next game.

    Bummed





  • My local Walmart has had so much theft they’ve blocked off all but 5 self checkout machines, which are manned by 2 associates at all times. Over the years they’ve gotten rid of all but 8 registers. Now these registers are all open and the lines reach the middle of the store. I hate going there now.

    Also everything with a resale value is locked up in cabinets and the one associate with a key can never be found no matter how many times she’s paged by other associates.

    If Walmart wasn’t cheaper by a giant margin I would never shop there again. But all Canadian grocery stores are owned by Billionaire aashats who raise the prices of everything then blame everyone else








  • Nvidia, wayland issues aside is still the superior card 9/10 times. This isn’t a gimmick to get people to buy Nvidia, most of us will buy it anyway. During my last purchase as I pondered over whether I should get an amd and move over to wayland or an Nvidia card that would allow me to locally generate images of whatever I wanted. It was a pretty easy decision, I’ll stick to X11 and Nvidia until the end. Stuff like this is just a bonus





  • I just switched to Endeavour from Manjaro when I upgraded my hardware, and every update changes the default kernel on the selection screen. I go in and edit the file to change the default from lts to the latest kernel, and the next update switches it right back. It’s maddening, i could do Arch, and I’ve done it on other machines I just don’t have the time for that level of customization. I already waste enough time tinkering.
