America, fuck yeah!

A Mustard video on the creation of the F-15 that goes over the comic. Nebula Version

He did

Apparently he lost an eye and the other is damaged.

Ok, but what if an entire programming language is made of whitespace?

For context: the inspiration

Blinkov’s Battlegrounds did a detailed thought experiment: what happens if a single F-15 is transported to 1941 Pearl Harbor. What could it do?

He also did a thought experiment along similar lines in a different video, if an entire modern supercarrier was transported back to WWII. Both videos are some of my favorites.

Yeah, with the Intel 13th and 14th gen issues, it really shouldn’t be recommending them as much. I think part of the issue is they only have one CPU vendor per tier. If they improved that, it would probably fix the issue. That said, if we are going purely off price/power, I’m not convinced their choices are bad.

For a beginner though, I really don’t like just shoving them at PC Part Picker. It’s too easy to get overwhelmed with choices.

While this is certainly in self-build territory, Logical Increments does a real good job giving balanced builds for various price points. People new to building often don’t know how much to spend on a CPU vs GPU to get the best value out of a given build cost.

The biggest thing is you have changed a random write to a linear write, something HDDs are significantly better at. The torrent is downloading little pieces from all over the place, requiring the HDD to move it’s head all over the place to write them. But when simply copying off the ssd, it keeps the head in roughly one place and just writes lineally, utilizing it’s maximum write speed.

I would say try it out, see if it helps.

Also, if the HDD is having to do other tasks at the same time, that will slow it down as the head can only ever be in one place.

I have drawn myself as the chad, and you as the soyjak.

Shoulda not done the shitty thing in the first place if you don’t want people leaving bad reviews.

Edit: EA has done so many shitty things at this point I simply feel nothing whenever they advertise a game to me. So many better games out there for me to spend my time and money on.

The worst part is Intel has known about this issue since at least 2023 and did not take ownership of the issue. They did not proactively recall defective chips, they just sold them and hoped people would not return the defective product.

It took teams of individuals cataloguing error rates to confirm this issue exists and for media like Level 1 Techs and Gamer’s Nexus to confirm and get the word out.

It is a complete damnation of Intel that the ‘solution’ was to brush this massive issue under the rug and fuck over customers.

Some games also have beta channels that are just the past versions of the game. Weather this exists or not is completely up to the game publisher though. I mostly see it in games that have active mod communities, so they want to let you lock down your version so your mod pack doesn’t break suddenly.

Code should absolutely speak for itself. But the occasional comment is still good to explain the ‘why’ of the code when the why isn’t very obvious, often due to a niche requirement. Also any time you have to break out a hack, that needs comments up the ass, what was the bug, what URL did you find the fix at, why does this hack work, etc etc. It’s very satisfying to go back and remove those hacks after they are no longer needed, often because the underlying technology fixed the bug that had to be hacked around.

Took me a moment too, look east of Ukraine. Poland did a big sneak.

Did they get Dr. Seuss to design a tank?

Crazy taxi seems like it would be best to remain a mid-budget single player game sold for a mid-budget price. Who wants this as an MMO? How can it possibly retain people for long enough to justify such an expense?

I have never seen this shit within the last few decades in a Western military. Everyone there believes a CASEVAC will get them to a hospital where they will be saved. Even if it can’t always happen, it is the norm to do one’s best to save people, not just give up in the first seconds.

Pentium D processors are pretty power hungry, so factor that into your thoughts. Also make sure you put a modern OS on it that is getting security updates. It probably has Win XP or Vista installed which isn’t safe to connect to any network.

It should work fine as a router as long as you don’t enable any of the packet inspection features. For basic routing and firewalling for a home network it should be plenty powerful. I would personally put a small SATA SSD in it as the main drive and ditch the 90GB HDD.

As an additional idea, if you put a larger SATA drive or two into it you could make it a NAS.

Kinda. They do have fun stuff like a cruiser that has a flat deck and carries aircraft, not an aircraft carrier (!!!), a cruiser. And they have been rearming the last two years as it becomes clear their neighbors might need a stick, or at least the threat of one.

How? Why?
