2 days later, squiddy will be buying the books. Ideal christmas gift for your parents!

And the SM57 for things you don’t need a screen on.

Frank Zappa: I’m the slime

I once changed a friend’s autocorrect from “regards” to “lots of love”.

And I somehow managed to keep my mouth shut long enough for a lecturer to get a very funny email.

Catwoman: What’s a hroom?

Awesome work, thankyou for taking the time to do this.

I too love a metal USB stick for the keychain, and my old DTSE9 could do with a refresh!

I still remember when they cut their bitrates and lowered video quality.
They denied it entirely, people proved that CR was full of shit.
So CR responded by…Attacking the people who proved the streams were lower bitrate than before.

I can only speak from a UK perspective, but most home ADSL/VDSL/Fibre providers don’t have limits, other than “if your usage is tanking the network, we’ll ask you to knock it off” type clauses.

Most providers are also signed up to an agreement that if your speed drops 50% below the agreed speed on the package on average, they’ll either give you refunds, or let you out of the contract.

The only ones that throttle are the bargain basement operators aimed at people who don’t care, and one otherwise very competent provider that for some unexplainable reason only gives 1TB by default, charging an extra £10 for 10TB.

And I guess there is also a pricing step up to guaranteed bandwidth. For business use, they tend to be things like 1gbits headline, 500mbit guaranteed burst, 100mbit guaranteed sustained.

From my experience, they’re “Hanging around outside the chip shop” gulls.

That doesn’t sound very typical.

The way to tell so often seems to be if someone has called it AI or Machine Learning.

AI? “I put this through chatgpt” (or “The media department has us by the balls”)

ML? “I crunched a huge amount of data in a huge amount of ways, and found something interesting”

It’s like if you went to church, and the vicar said:
“You know what? I don’t fancy delivering this sermon with moral guidance. Lets just sing 10 hymns in a row.”

There are some in the datahoarder community pushing a PB.
They mostly store Linux ISOs.

Kinda like the BeltBox, but less brightly coloured.

Must be the fracking residue in the water.

Or ignorance made a convenient fig leaf.

This is an absolutely brilliant summary.

I thought it was.

I just got frustrated with it.

How many chapters that actually detail what happened? It felt like all it did was go

Then spends more time talking about how he is burdened and manly as a result of doing it than the actual doing.

The Hell storyline after that gave me hope, as I trudged through chapters of “cor, look at Adam’s muscular muscles muscling”, but once that finished, and we started getting storylines like “Why can’t we have guns in Folctha? Murica!”, I kinda gave up.

The main contributor continued writing it on a full novel scale at https://deathworlders.com/ .

However…Imho after about 40 chapters, it really loses it’s way (bar a couple of cool minor plots). And the author goes a bit right wing rhetoric/muscleporn-y.
