I have tried out a bunch of Linux ones last year and I will be converting over my main PC at some point this year due to all the things they have done or want to do with Windows 11. I agree it’s very hard to ignore.

Yup, its the oldest ongoing game show and will be it’s 55th season this year hosted by Drew Carey.

Can confirm, mine does this lol. It’s 9nly a slight freeze and I use it as an advantage to keep things prone to expiring quicker near that area to prolong its life a bit.

Whenever a special is on tv I run into issues as well. I saw they used to allow stream if you had HBO max account but just stopped in November because cnn wanted to go direct and let people pay them for monthly subscriptions now. I gave up looking and gave them the $3 for the month just to get it. I’ve pretty much used up all my free trials on all the live tv apps anyway. Not sure what you have but they still give you access if you have cable tv and can log in with the service provider account.

Dam, were where you 4 hours ago. I gave up and just paid 3 bucks for the month so my wife doesnt freak out.

I have been waiting for Witchbrook as well. It looks really fun. Never heard of Cairn but dam does it look really interesting as well.

Sorry, but you couldn’t pay me to live in hurricane territory.

Oh I know, I work in the industry as well. Our company backups alone for workstations and servers is just under 1 petabyte. This is then replicated to an offsite location which is also out disaster recovery location, and also stored in long term storage in Azure. This is just backups, sooo much money for backups haha. Thats why I am shocked that this entire company can run off of 300tb which is a lot, but nothing when you think of it being the entire business model for them.

I think the craziest thing ive seen is we have these instruments that do genome testing and sequencing and they would create like 10tb worth of data per month. Every month they got there own 10tb drive handed to them to backup their stuff on there own on top of the ones we did for them.

300tb is a lot, but its kind of crazy to think this entire company only needs 300tb storage arrays to function. I wonder how they handle things internally. I would imagine at least 1 backup server ready to go in HA. I wonder if they have multiple regions across the country that also serves up the same setup.

I think for obvious reasons Adolf is up there. Although I have heard it is still a semi common name in some parts of the world.

This is where I am confused. I hear this, but I also keep hearing they used AI to create assets when it was first started development as placeholders for future assets. They were all replaced long before the game was ever released. I also heard that the assets used were stock unreal 5 assets which were AI generated but again replaced later long before the game released. So which is the real story?

Got to my late 30’s before needing to call. This was about 6 years ago. My mother in law was staying with us because her husband passed 3 months prior. She found out later that month she had pancreatic cancer. So my wifes family cleaned out their house and got things in order. She moved in with us maybe a month prior. My wifes sister was with me visiting to see her and my wife left like 30 min to take care of stuff. It was my sister’s daughter and my kid who was 3 or 4 at the time. It started out She said she was having trouble breathing and sat on our stairs as her sister tried to get her to calm down since at this point we didnt think much of it. Within a few more minutes she started to panic and so did the sister. The sister started screaming and I called 911. By the time they got here we had already saw her slip out of consciousness while continuing to say i can breath I dont want to die. Paramedics tried for 30 min or so and took her to the hospital were she was pronounced dead. It was a massive heart attack and everyone says there really wasn’t much we could have done. That was a bad year, but then we got covid the next year so it just keeps getting better…

By far i feel like in the last week I have seen way more of these busted attempts than any previous year. It’s kind of disturbing… you hope they got them all but the more there are the more I feel like theres probably another group that can slip by. Here is hoping I am wrong. Stay safe everyone.

Thanks for the suggestion. Says on it’s site summer 2026 is target for release. Still a while away, I wonder how long we have with Firefox before this takes over…

Looks like theres a site you can use to get color names. It says its called Browny Green

I’ve been saying that same thing since 2005 lol. 2004 is peak gaming. It was great living through that era.

You need to set yourself up with radarr and sonarr. Get into torrents or usenet. And finally pick either plex, emby, or jellyfin. The movie one didnt exactly change my world since I had to pick the stuff, but shows one was crazy! Add the show and gets all existing stuff and will download the news ones when released. Its especially great the following year when you didnt even know it was coming back and boom you already have it. Bonus points, I use android app nzb360 on local network to connect to all those apps and it shows whats new so I can easily add stuff. I can even connect to my download app so it shows everything in 1 spot.

Same! Except I use windows and they have a small app that you can install and run in the background which will update the IP if needed.

I also used duckdns for years before moving to this and I never had any issues using that either. It was the same thing, small app that ran on your machine and you needed the token and it just worked.

It may be predictable, but A Christmas Story. I grew up with it and the 24 hour marathon with my parents and for the most part we still keep the tradition alive with my family. Wrap gifts to it, open gifts to it, waiting to eat dinner and still watching it. Of course you only see snip its throughout the day so its not like I see it 20 times, but more likely around 4 times in a year.

I don’t think I have ever watched the game awards, but I do look at the results and trailers the day after. I am glad Claire pulled through! I was following that game the year before it released and it looked incredible. For me it was a day one purchase and glad I was right! It was definitely an experience. It’s also the only game I have purchased this year outside of black friday where I used a gift card to buy 3 cheap games.
