Titus tech tip’s windows decrapifying tool is pretty awesome for removing windows shit.

His YouTube channel is pretty cool too.

Toilet

Makes sense. It was talcum based, which is a pretty bad thing to breathe.

Wurth is just a badge engineering company with stupid high markup. I used to own a sign company, and we bought stuff from them. We slowly realized that they essentially sold convenience, a one stop shop formula.

Give me the real GOATS anytime: 3M, Hilti, any of the big pro power tool makers, etc.

With the internet, the convenience factor is gone.

Yes, but please, get a good one. A crappy one is likely to strip heads.

Ifixit sets are highly regarded.

I have a Wiha set, but that may be overkill for many.

For swamp crotch, Gold Bond is the GOAT.

If you use an electric toothbrush, every two or three brushing, use a manual one. Both brush differently, so you will reach more nooks and crannies by alternating.

Time to order a few SanDisk cards

Overcompensating much?

That’s when you mail yourself letters from “FBI sharpshooter association” or “Krav Maga instructors association”, and after receiving them post marked, drop them in their mailbox, as if it were postman error.

It’s tongue in cheek.

I use Xpenology on an HP Gen 8 microswrver, a pretty nifty piece of kit. Works great, but setting up and upgrading versions can be a rather involved process.

Gamer desktops tend to be power hogs. Running them 24/7 can rack up some hefty power bills, plus noise, plus space, plus other tradeoffs.

Better a used thin client.

If you have a 3d printer, or access, o know someone willing to print for you, there are many free models out there

Definitely an option, but for the price of a Pi with all the extras, case, power supply, etc, you can get a used thin client that is way more capable.

There is a guy on YouTube that often reviews these things, and discovers some models that are surprisingly capable.

Synology publishes a list of certified non-synology drives, and warns you that drives outside the list are not recommended, but, at least in non enterprise models, allows them to be used. I believe there is some rather easy way (some config file change or the like) to circumvent the limitation, but yeah, dick move.

Bargaining chip. Hehe, I see what you did there.

Tesla sells itself as a technology innovation company, but it sells hype.

The esthetics are +20 years old. While dihydrogen monoxide has been a staple in my dad humor repertoire, this site is a banger.

BTW, the post was downvoted. My guess is that it was one of the dyhidrogen oxide cartels.

I’m offended by the attention deficit and the disorder part. I don’t have a deficit, I have an abundance of attention, it’s just not linear. I have parallel attention, not serial. In my close circle I’m the guy people often go for answers, because I often have them, albeit often somewhat superficial, because it’s near impossible to go deep in any subject, unless hyperfocus kicks in.
