Holy crap this thread just made me check what the cost is for the RAM in my machine. Bought it for $220 2x32GB. That same pair is now over $1250

Hazing has changed over the years it seems

And yet everything I said doesn’t contradict anything of what you said. So if I have zero credibility, then neither do you

Humans have been doing the whole sulfur dioxide thing for decades. In 2020 cargo ships began to use fuels with less sulfur in them to reduce sulfur dioxide output. The result, was a marked increase in sea surface temperatures because the aerosols used to help block some of the sunlight.

It’s arguable to call it geoengineering as that implies purposeful engineering is ongoing. Whereas we were literally just burning sulfur rich fuels for cargo ships.

The reason people associate it with chemtrails is because sulfur dioxide is touted as a key component in the exhaust trails left behind by aircraft. While there may be trace amounts of the stuff in jet exhaust, this is not purposeful geoengineering as it’s just a byproduct of fossil fuel use. A more visible one because it’s easy to look up in the sky and see planes leaving trails compared to seeing the faint haze left behind by cargo ships in the middle of the ocean.

Cloud seeding is a thing in very small regional efforts for promoting cloud cover and even rainfall. And these are purposefully done to achieve those two outcomes. Usually they’re done near dry places that have too much sun and not enough water. Despite some of these operations taking place, their effects are miniscule when compared to the scale of global operations that aren’t trying to purposefully do any geoengineering.

Does it count if my truck’s check engine light came on but it got fixed because I figured out the gas cap wasn’t screwed on tight enough?

Chat, is this real?

Will things still be okay if I disabled updates for it?

From some random dude on the Internet, I’m both on some parts of either side of this meme and not even in it in others.

The Wi-Fi data for the same period was 104GB

For science, we need to know how well dishwasher detergent works on the inside of the oven

620MB of data from last months usage. Generally all my data is via Wi-Fi as well.

I’m also here from the API thing. This scratches the itch for me and that’s more than enough in this day and age.

My cat sleeps whenever he’s tired or when I go to sleep. He’s a proximity cat, so he’ll be snoozing nearby depending on where in the house I am. If I go to bed, he’s going to go to bed too.

He also doesn’t wake me up. The auto feeder gets him food, so I can stay asleep without having to worry about him getting fed. Usually when I wake up he’ll be in the mini cat tree or under the bed.

There’s already a duplicate

Yeah it was highly disappointing. I’d always used Intel CPUs just because I picked one chipset and stuck with it. I even put up with the instability issues from the 13 for a while. At first I figured something else in the PC was dying on me. Until it reached a point where I literally couldn’t run certain applications because it would always crash that the news articles started coming out about the chip issues.

I initially got the 13 series, got a 14 series as the warranty replacement. Even with updated bios firmware the 14 series also began suffering from the same instability issues, sooner than the 13. Switched after that because two chips in a row, different generations is not a small mistake. Just happy I didn’t have to pay for that 14 series only to see it have the same problem

The whole ethnic identity is mostly to identify where in the world you ethnically originated from to other Americans. Because almost every single person in the US is either an immigrant, or a descendent of one. So we identify to each other where we came from as Americans.

Where people go wrong with this is if they happen to be traveling internationally and take this US centric identity with them. If traveling internationally, you could be ethnically from the place you are traveling. But in that context, you’d be American. This is a part of that whole well traveled awareness thing.

The genealogy thing is their curiosity in tracing that ethnic origin with greater detail. I personally don’t find it too interesting myself, but different strokes.

Edit: I’d like to add, this is mostly in case other people reading this thread are wondering why this is even a thing. It’s truly an annoying behavior.

I switched to AMD because of Intel’s chip stability issues. No problems since

My cat knows his name. Best part is, he’ll respond if I talk to him.
