Yep! Always expect more excuses from the govt. Just like your boss telling you the economy is bad so they can’t give you a raise despite pulling in record profits, you really can’t get a raise because they answer to investors not you. The govt answers to donors not voters. So any excuse to not do something for you will be used. Regardless of the political pins they wear.
This feels about right. I have an OLED and I got it about 6mo after it came out. I’m rocking it most days, and it doesn’t feel End Of Life. But I could see maybe wanting a new one in a few years.
I bet it is getting more expensive, but it probably hasn’t hit the same heights as silicon valley/san francisco where a small condo is 1mil.
Yep, most of the people leaving those blue states are leaving due to high cost of living and going to cheaper states. The HCOL means they’re likely from metropolitan areas, meaning they’re likely democrat voters. Very few of them are going to rural areas, they’re going to cities in the cheaper states. This will have a bigger impact on presidential elections than congress, due to gerrymandered maps. It might be enough to flip these states as they’re all-or-nothing states.
Hah! Thanks for the recommendation. I hope you remember the other one too.
Yep. On the emulators now it is instant. I recently stayed at an airbnb with an nes and played with my kids. The lag is definately there. Even my kids were falling off stuff shouting that they pushed the jump button.
I distinctly remember mario bros on the nes. There was like a 1/3second latency between pressing the button and mario jumping. You had to time your jumps (especially when running) further back than you’d expect to compensate. You just kinda got used to it after a while.
This is the answer here. If OP has any techy friends they should tell them. I have a dozen HDDs and SSDs and RAM of varying sizes lying around. Most of them even work.
I tend to canabalize parts as computers pass through my hands. I frequently upgrade family member’s laptops for them. They buy the parts and I provide the labor of cloning windows and putting in the parts. Often the brand new (but smaller) ram/ssd are unwanted.
Ah, I tried reading the first one and couldn’t get past the first few chapters.
Space Opera, think Firefly.
Added, thanks!
Added to list, thanks!
The avsolute best that I’ve read is Phantom Star by Seras on RR. Unfortunately they haven’t finished the story. (there is ai, but it’s a dumb ai)
2nd place is Quarter Share (Trader’s Tales from the Golden Age of the Solar Clipper) by Nathan Lowell.
3rd place is Bobiverse.
Honorable Mention is Rookie Privateer (Privateer Tales Book 1) by Jamie McFarlane. This one would be higher, but as the series went on they became more and more militaristic.
Absolutely adore fantasy too. Everything from classic, swords and sorcery to litrpg and cultivation. You got something space opera with fantasy? I’m excited.
Looks promising, added to list, thanks!
Oh, this looks great! Thanks!
Thanks for the warning!
Bonus, she’ll think of you and visit you way more often than if you were shoved in a back corner of a cemetary.
Everyone ends up going back to windows for the better user experience anyway. Which is why Linux is an acronym for Linux Is Not UX (user experience).
Thanks, I’ll check it out.
looks like these are the rechargable version.
Fair, I was mostly referring to needing an update because a few games I want to play on the deck need it.
