Installed BF6. Had to turn on secure boot. When I came back last night, I can’t boot into Windows. Disable secure boot, wipe the hard drive, and created a boot stick from my Linux distro. Whenever I try to execute that, I see the Windows logo for a few seconds and then this screen. Help

The parts for this have been sitting on my shelf for a year and a half. With a meetup happening next weekend, I figured now was a great time to get it finished. Say hello to the Masonry. (Plus build photos) #mechanicalkeyboards

Still attempting to figure out why knowing which sexual organs I possess, and/or what I am doing with them, is relevant on a job application. Is this just me being thick?

A tweet saying the following:

AI company: we trained this dog to talk. It doesn’t actually understand language, but it kinda sounds like it’s having a conversation by mimicking the sound of human speech.

CEO: awesome, I’ve fired my entire staff, how quickly can it start diagnosing medical disorders
