That's my mother to a T. She defends all the batshit stuff he spews by saying it's just a negotiating tactic to get to some "reasonable" compromise. Which may well be true, but it doesn't change the fact that his opening bid is always something batshit insane and/or cruel, and that he would happily go through with it, if he were allowed to.

Calzones are pretty awesome, but it's not quite the same when the toppings are not exposed to the oven to get crisped up / browned as they would on a pizza.

Cheese and pepperoni especially just hit different on a well-cooked pizza!

At least in the context of the song, I'm pretty sure the "mo' problems" part comes from the fact that having "mo' money" makes you a bigger target for people who would want to cut themselves in on your money and/or your sources of money.

I don't have specific troubleshooting advice to give, but I have been using an Nvidia Shield Pro as my main streaming device for about 4 years now. It is overpriced for what it is, but it has been rock solid for streaming via both Jellyfin and Plex.

The official Jellyfin app is definitely not as polished as Plex, but it has consistently worked for me on the Shield.

I used to work with a Ukranian coworker, who had so little of an accent that I often forgot he was not a native English speaker.

One time during a meeting, I mentioned "there's more than one way to skin a cat" and I can still picture the horrified look on his face when he processed what I just said.

In all fairness, it's a pretty morbid expression!

This is me too. I've got about 5TB of material being seeded 24/7 from my media seever, but I rarely see more than single-digit GB total upload volume per day. The majority of the time, except for the occasional blip, I rarely see total upload rate get over a few hundred kB/s despite having the cap at 24MB/s.

I'd have to stop torrenting completely and only seed for a year to get my ratio past 2.0 lol

What!? Did we just become worst enemies???

That could be it. It was a turbocharged compact (back before literally everything was a 4cyl turbo), though not externally very flashy. So maybe he was just one of those guys who sported a perpetual hste-boner for imports.

Pardon? I just assumed there was a cabinet position lined up.

Probably 15 years ago while on a freeway interchange, some guy behind me on a cloverleaf whipped past after we merged onto the freeway then slowed down in the left lane to match the speed of a semi. It was clearly intentional as the road was otherwise relatively empty and he kept pace with the truck for a good 10 miles, blocking me in.

To this day I have no idea what his problem was, and part of me feels bad for him because... what normal happy person just randomly takes time out of their day to fuck with someone to thay extent!? But I remember it clearly, so it obviously pissed me off to a degree, yet it feels really petty to still think about it, so idk.

For what it's worth, if i ever find myself elderly with end stage cancer, I would consider it a kindness to be able to go out painlessly and relatively quickly.

I don't have kids, but when I was a kid I loved Spaghetti-Os and that candy that comes in a toothpaste tube but is literally just gelatinous sugar syrup. I probably would've loved the cybertruck too.

I'm guessing you already know this... but that is literally the reason why A&W's 1/3lb burger (launched to compete with McDonalds' 1/4 pounder) failed lol

I mean, 20TB drives will work in an array just as well as 8TB 😉

Honestly with the price of refurb enterprise drives, it's really hard not to justify not going that route and just keeping a spare drive formatted on warm standby at all times.

A bit of a digression though, since OP isn't looking to cram a bunch of drives into an old mini case.

I think they are referring to grifters and sexual predators being held accountable for their actions.

If you have a son you should be worried as well! Im scared for my son in this crazy world!

My fucking sides! 🤣

That's a dope resource thanks!

Candied yams from a can with toasted marshmallows is all I need! Everything else is details.

Save some clown makeup for the rest of us!

Fully agree.

I've purchased refurb drives from both them and GoHardDrive.com. So far I'm 5/5 for a mix of Exos and HGST Ultrastar drives working perfectly out of the box.

Anytime these drives pop up on Slickdeals, the thread is full of 3 types of people: People who have never bought a refurb/recert drive but insist they are all going to burn your house down, people who have bought several with no issue, and people who have received a failing drive that the seller promptly replaced.
