Was gonna say— it’s encouraging seeing cheaper more environmentally friendly packaging like this. Great reuse of existing production machines and materials too. But damn if that label isn’t just very poorly designed for the product category.

Boy that’s… that’s one way to solve it I guess.

can we go back?

No!

I’d prefer GNU’s ddrescue just because I find it more robust and has better progress output. It’s functionally the same interface but lets you use a mapfile to resume sessions should anything happen to interrupt the copy.

Arguably I’m against this because you never know what’s going to happen and the conventional wisdom for appliances like this is to just backup any important configs, backup your containers and vms, then do a fresh install from the latest install media on the new disk followed by a restore of the backups. It might take a little more time but it’s negligible and allows you an opportunity to review your current configs, make necessary changes, and ensure your backups are working as intended.

Gran Turismo 4
Dirt Rally 2 Forza Horizons 4

And the godking itself, Burnout 4 Revenge and its understudy Burnout 3.

Bonus point to Extreme-G and G2.

I’m also going to mention Generally. It was a tiny game with a small dedicated community but gods damn if it wasn’t just super fun to make maps and play community created events/maps/contests.

According to this Blu-ray has some of the worst expected shelf life, with the exception of BD-RE.

Had no idea they had mod kits! Definitely gonna grab this and the N64 kit.

I averaged the last 3 years for these.

That + this is exactly why I just blocked them. They don’t want downvotes? Fine, I don’t want to see their posts. Win win.

Tell that to Microsoft!

bool?

Markiplier?

Or Dave Mathew’s band.

Nah, there was never a plan. That’s the whole idea. Remember he was president. He tried to kill ACA without a replacement, always promising a replacement is coming before during and now after his 4 years.

I’ve literally thrown my back out trying to suppress sneezes. I gave up trying years ago, I’m a scream sneezer through and through. Dracula barely helps but at least it’s more sanitary.

Well, I feel a bit better getting my 7900 XTX then even if the price was a bit of a gut punch. It’s been a rock solid replacement of my 3090 for gaming and general Linux performance and stability. Guess I’ll be sticking with this for a few years till AMD decides to compete on high end again.

In my experience, token limits mean nothing on larger context windows. 1 million tokens can easily be taken up by a very small amount of complex files. It also doesn’t do great traversing a tree to selectively find context which seems to be the most limiting factor I’ve run against trying to incorporate LLMs into complex and unknown (to me) projects. By the time I’ve sufficiently hunted down and provided the context, I’ve read enough of the codebase to answer most questions I was going to ask.

I think you mean “they jumped the shark cards”.

It’s not like they care anyways, it’s all just a live service now because they’re raking in the cash. I’ve resigned to probably not being able to play this series again at this point.

I have the same model, powering 3 machines with an average load of ~125w when it switches to battery power. I have a NUT host on one of the servers which will broadcast the outage for the other machines and the whole stack shuts down after 30 seconds and switches off the UPS at the very end. Gone through about 4 or 5 true power events now and double that in testing (overzealous I know) but the UPS is 2.5 years old now and is doing just fine. I have a spare battery because I heard ~3 years is normal but so far no indication it’s reaching replacement yet.

I think the important thing for these is to not run them down to 0. They’re only good for one event at a time and shouldn’t constantly be switching over without basically a full day of recharging again (more like 16h to recharge).

I can see consistent brownouts and events being a problem for these little machines. I’m planning on upgrading to a rack solution soon and relegating this one to my desktop in the other room (with a fresh battery of course).

When did dramatized tv become misinformation? It wasn’t a documentary…

We don’t really know the effects of accelerated or slowed day/night cycle on humans in the large scale. Given the adaptive nature of humans / most biology on Earth, it’s not unreasonable to think that different planet’s cycle (from birth) might affect those humans in a profound way.
