I’m going to guess that an old mid or full size tower could fit a modern GPU. With a bit of dremelling on the back you cold probably make it work. My son has been mulling such a mod.

They are on track to bankrupt The Onion

I like how the article reminds us of creating goverment efficiency by creating an additional department. I’m an old IT guy. I worked for the US goverment in the 80´s, and my org was the pilot place for a paperless office. We got a “fast” scanner, a 4 ppm Laser printer (in the 80´s those things went for 1000´s,) the size of a washing machine, and two additional new filing cabinets!!

For 249€ you can buy a Ryzen 5 (Not an N100, mind you) 16Gb/512Gb mini PC With windows 11 Pro in Amazon in Europe, or this one, in an actual new, different format, with interesting extras, like a 2.5K webcam, and speakers And of course, you have your local windows, you can dual boot Win/Linux, and/or run VMs of your choice, and do decent gaming!

I use a Merkur shaver, and Feather blades. Feathers are possibly the sharpest, but they only stay super sharp like three shaves. It coasts me like 0,03€ a shave, and it’s the best shaving experience. Also, wet shave. Cream or soap nad a brush until thick. A neat trick. Turn the blade upside down every shave. Your skin kind of acts like a strop.

Not all blades are for everyone. Some find Feathers too sharp. When starting get a multibrand pack, with Astra, shark, etc. Youll discover which work best for you.

I’m not a rabid anti-nuclear, but there are somethings that are often left out of the pricing. One is the exorbitant price of storage of spent fuel although I seem to remember that there is some nuclear tech that can use nuclear waste as at least part of it’s fuel (Molten salt? Pebble? maybe an expert can chime in). There is also the human greed factor. Fukushima happened because they built the walls to the highest recorded tsunami in the area, to save on concrete. A lot of civil engineering projects have a 150% overprovision over the worst case calculations. Fukushima? just for the worst case recorded, moronic corporate greed. The human factor tends to be the biggest danger here.

You can buy a Ryzen 9 32Gb 2 Tb mini pc that seems to have a similar form factor. It’s capable of running 3 4K diaplays, not too shabby. at Amazon in Europe for 446€. Or, if you’d prefer, a Ryzen 5 pro 16 Gb 512 SSD for 289 Link so half the money and you get 2x storage… Link sure, no thunderbolt, but considering the specs, I know what I’d buy.

Evolution in action.

That’s Inhoman!

I’m a guy with a high “test IQ”, and my sister, who is in the normal range is way more succesful that me in most aspects of life. You don’t want high “test IQ”, you want “smart people” not the same, and far more difficult to measure. High IQ basically means you are good at solving certain types of puzzles

In my country all water bodies are public, and shores must be easily accessible, so no private beaches, lakes or rivers. Freshwater shores are publicly accessible up to 5 meters from the highest regular levels. If you have a river crossing your large estate, people can walk through by walking up the shore.

So eating containerfuls of bananas a crime or something suspicious now?

Plenty

Any seiko really

As I mentioned, I use remotes occasionally, so I’m trying a low fuss solution. If my bread and butter were remote support, I’d probably invest time in a more customized set-up

Thanks. I’m trying out HopToDesk. As I understand it’s a clone. Works pretty well. I hope they don’t pull any shenanigans

I do SMB support. I recently replaced one at a customer , essentially because it didn’t support larger disks. Also because it was slow as fuck. replacing a 10 year plus device doesn’t seem that unreasonable.

That said, I don’t like Dlink.

It’s not microplastics that worry me. It’s heated plastics, which is why I don’t use plastics in the microwave or use non stick cookware. BTW, the fancy air fryer seems to be all metal, like the toaster ovens.

Also, why the downvotes to a reasonable question?
