I can believe.

Luxury bones here probably thinks you need a separate weekend and events car.

I always thought my casual was actually business because of the collared work shirt. Are you telling me I need a jacket or some sort of overcoat for it to actually be business?

I told a kid to please stop throwing trash on the ground. He told me that it doesn’t matter man, we’ll all be dead soon anyway.

It takes a village, and the village is very sick.

I have my seed box limit upload bandwidth to quite a low value, not because I hate leechers, but because I have to spread out my available data cap to maximize availability over the long term. If I blow through my data in three days I’m not as much good to the network.

Seed. I’d rather have at least one whole copy in a swarm versus a bunch of really fast peers that don’t have the complete files.

Take a dump that’s three minutes longer and think of Sharon during.

You need beans.

Hi, I wanted to follow up and let readers know that I solved the problem. The root cause was the SSD firmware needed to be upgraded. I never would’ve guessed that was the cause, but apparently over the past year there were a bunch of WD Black SSDs that have problems on Windows unless they receive a patch.

My dad’s not a phone!

Doesn’t mean we don’t use it as our main database

It depends on your needs. I’m in the same boat, and for now, I’m investing because I ran the numbers and decided my combination of factors (local real estate market, level of commitment to this location, job security) means I’m better off with market risk and renting.

I can totally be wrong. The future is uncertain. I decided that’s the risk I prefer over the risk of stagnant home values.

Still this is a very personal decision. I’d choose between a basic but solid flat vs. investing in other ways, but don’t buy real estate to invest IMHO you do it because it suits your lifestyle first, and only after that, as an investment.

As for your mental health struggles, I can only offer empathy. I’m not smart enough emotionally to help you there.

This is the actual login screen. Not the bit locker recovery screen. Thus, the drive has already been unlocked.

It relates to how they use the TPM and Windows hello. It appears to be known issue, but without great solutions online.

The best part is after my fifth or sixth attempt, it said I had to wait two hours before I could try to log into the PC again. In Safe Mode.

You know, the mode where you might be trying to debug something. Thus, restarting the machine more often than you normally would.

I couldn’t use Safe Mode to diagnose my driver problem on Windows 11 because it said I couldn’t sign in due to security reasons.

I’m not paraphrasing. It just told me because reasons. Because obviously I’m too dumb to understand. Right there at the login screen, as if they never even tested this feature once.

Don’t think it’ll be Windows that I’m going to reinstall this time.

The backwards thing is, it probably actually is profitable, but we can’t see beyond the next quarter. We don’t understand that you can invest in your people.

I might have kids if I had the space for it. You know, future taxpayers.

Best I can do is fed interest rate cuts.

Precisely. This is extreme inequity. There are plenty of resources to go around.

The future was stolen.

With care and advance notice. No unexpected hugs, especially not from behind. Lid for every pot I suppose.

My wife and I do not enjoy kissing, so I would say that it doesn’t necessarily appeal to everyone. It could be the autism, but the physical sensation is not pleasurable for either of us and we have never understood the appeal of this act. It’s jarring. Like nails on chalkboard when tongue is touched.
