Trying to fix spoiled kids by spoiling them more only backfires, the 2x spoiling and kowtowing becomes the new expected norm. There is no mitigating entitled brats as spoiled and rotten as maga/trump, especially when they don't even remember the societal norms they are supposed to give lipservice to

Astrophotographer Adam (AJ) Smadi caught this image a few hours ago from Washington state. A thin crescent Moon, sunlight illuminating the rugged lunar surface. And 2,400 times farther away—and on the other side of the Sun—mighty Jupiter, and its moons Io (left) and Ganymede (right).
A crescent Moon seen during the day, arcing from upper left to lower right of the frame. At lower centre is the full disk of Jupiter; the small dots to its upper left and lower right and Io and Ganymede, respectively.

Used to love the stores a decade ago, but they've been growing more and more consumer unfriendly every year as they find more corners to cut. Now they're only good for cheap gas and clean, no-wait restrooms.

Not even a four hour drive? Can avoid the worst of it not having to buy a GPU at least, but MC sells low enough the savings will still pay for the gas. Can't even trust buying a GPU on Amazon regardless of price, fake returns get mixed into all the new stock.

Could try nudging the CPU voltage up and RAM clocks down to see if that will get it stable in the interim. Microcenter is your friend! Zen 6 is supposedly announcing between now and January, but I'd recommend AM5 regardless. Intel's platform isn't great, and they're changing the socket again in Jan

Your reminder that no respectable business should be ordering from Uline! We do not support them. And spare me the "but they're the least expensive, but they have the ___" You might as well directly donate to their causes then. Full and total boycott is the only option.

You've never had to take apart an HTC 10 before! Those had the worst battery replacement score, had to take apart every single component just to get to the batt and it felt intentional. Glad to have bigger batts now that are way easier to swap than that old phone.

The missile’s warhead reportedly contained damaging elements made of depleted Uranium-235 and Uranium-238. A gamma radiation level of 12 μSv/h was recorded, significantly exceeding the natural background radiation level and posing a threat to human health.

I don't know why people still use telegram. People literally have to pay telegram just to enable the setting that prevents unknown accounts from randomly messaging you. Surely there's a better alternative somewhere. Especially after the recent auto-infection with previews enabled vulnerability.

The embedded image shows a man standing at a microphone inside a church-like setting with a cross and curtains behind him, alongside a CNN news banner identifying him as a U.S. Senate candidate from Nebraska.

People are more upset over gas prices than the wanton death. It is almost starting to make sense when Charlie Kirk said he thought empathy was a fake, made up word. I think most Americans actually don't have the ability to emphasize with "the other", they can only sympathize with commonalities.

First they said critical ICE detention footage was "destroyed." Then, lost in a system crash. Then, never recorded. Now, in the latest court docs, it shows the federal government lost three hard drives it was supposed to put footage on in a case where ICE detainees say they faced inhumane abuse.
