How is this a technical issue? Seems like your hard drive is working fine?

I am more worried about whether Topton can build a functioning motherboard than about whether they spy on me.

Thanks for your reply! Which board do you have?

Exactly! In the past, I would have chosen the red pill to change decisions that I made in the past. But today there are some things in my life that are not directly the result of conscious decisions, but that I would not want to miss.

Hmm maybe I had bad luck but I won't dare to try again because the experience was so bad.

For me it's toner for printers: I have a Brother laser printer at home that is not heavily used but at least once a week. I thought I'd save some money when I bought some cheap ass toner from Amazon that cost about half of what a original Brother toner costs and promised something like double the capacity.

Oh boy... I had the worst mildly infuriating two years of printing you could imagine: always disappointed of the printing quality but not THAT disappointed to replace this shitty but still at 2/3 capacity toner. I paid money for that toner so I'd squeeze every last page of shitty quality prints out of this fucking toner!

Last week I gave up and bought an original Brother toner and it's a bliss. 🙄

Damn TIL! I didn't know that and I didn't know that Hitler was stateless from 1925 till 1932.

Aktshually he wasn't even German...

Which movie is it?

• Eliza: A visual novel by Zachtronics, took me 10 hours to beat
• Aviary Attorney: A visual novel / detective/ attorney game with music from Camille Saint-Saens and art by J.J. Grandville. Beat it in 7 hours and had a blast.
• Braid: 2D puzzle platformer with time shift mechanic. Finished it in 7 hours.
• Tiny Bang story: wimmelpicture point & click. 7 hours.
• Call of Cthulhu: Horror walking simulator. 7 hours.
• Bastion: Amazing isometric action game by Supergiant Games. Rook me good 6 hours to finish.
• Thomas was alone: 2 D platformer with geometric shapes as characters and great narrator. 6 hours.
• Whispers of a machine: Noir detective story point & click. 5 hours.
• Homefront: USA gets invaded by Korea first person shooter. Good 4 hours.
• INSIDE: Atmospheric 2D puzzler. 4 hours.
• LIMBO: Same as INSIDE, same developer, great game, different story. 4 hours.

Obviously you do as you like but a common way is to put then in as far as you like / as it's comfortable and pull them out slowly.

Wow that's a really amazing answer and you sound like a great prof!

Can you tell us a remarkable example where you learned that students today have different need than you had in the mid 2000s?

Is it some kind of generation gap or were you just an extraordinary student when you were studying?

This is actually a thing:

Hey, of course I don't know your financial capabilities and the height of your allowance but I encourage you to not give up on your intention to learn bass guitar.

I don't know where you're located and what possibilities you have to find used instruments but here in Germany you can find used bass guitars on a portal called "Kleinanzeigen" (the German equivalent to Craigslist I think) for very little money or for free. Just keep looking.

Also on our big instrument online shop "thomann.de" you find beginner bass guitars for less than 100 €. I am sure you find similarly cheap bass guitars where you live.

Long story short: Don't give up learning an instrument and have the courage to ask people around you to support you.

Do you honestly not have a single dollar or euro to spend on an instrument? Instruments don't have to be expensive and you can find beginner instruments that are exceptionally cheap.

What instrument would you like to learn and how much could you realistically afford to do so?

Am I the one one thinking this post is blowing the topic way out of proportion?

The post title is clickbait in its purest form: nothing is being blocked (from what even). There is a single issue raised on some obscure filter list... This has no consequences whatsoever. I am wondering why Protonmail even bothers to comment on this issue...

I am playing Cyberpunk 2077. Pretty much finished the main story and playing the DLC story line right now.

It's great fun but when I hit the level cap I got bored regarding my playstyle (SMG and sword) and started experimenting with different weapons and skills. Since you can't max out every skill I cheated to achieve this.

Now I'm a omnipotent killing machine and should probably increase the difficulty...

Is it any good? It's on my wishlist but is too expensive for my taste.

Everything I heard about cast iron pans was either "This is the hot shit!!" or "They are horrible to maintain and you can't keep food in them overnight because it destroys the patina you built for weeks".

Since I am lazy as fuck I'll pass...

Lol your statement doesn't hold true for where I live. We live more or less in the vicinity of the nearest Amazon warehouse, like 50 km away...

When we order several (like 6) items, they send 6 packages, each individually packed, with 6 delivery drivers over two days, ringing three times a day (noon, afternoon, late evening).

This is purely anecdotal but almost comically bad logistics.....
