Doing God’s work over there.

Specifically sponge cake? Like seriously?

I was totally reading this title thinking it was extending the shelf life of all foods generally and stuff, then they drop “Sponge Cake” in there instead. 🤣

I’m right there with you. Maybe us THPS fans all just have a “fuck the man” mentality and refused to buy from Epic. Then again, this game never got cracked, either…

Fuck yeah. Nice work FBI. 👌

Yeah, the ISP cartels sucks. I’ve been stuck paying $170/mo for uncapped 1000/35mbps connection.

Thankfully, before the end of the year, a local ISP is moving into my area. They offer uncapped symmetrical gigabit, for $75/mo… I’ll be saving $95/mo for BETTER service.

The longstanding ISP cartels should seriously be punished for the abuse of their market positions and failure to appropriately use government funding they’ve been given.

LTT, for better or worse, is a very popular tech/PC gaming entertainment YouTube channel. A lot of the younger folks in the nerd space probably grew up watching his content.

I started watching a little late, because I thought he seemed kind of annoying back in the day, but I actually do enjoy their content. It’s clear they have some organization and communication problems internally that they need to sort out, though.

Not to be confused with Discordapp.com

I like video games, goofy stuff, and tech. So lately, it’s been:

• My Brother, My Brother, and Me
• Noclip
• Besties
• We Have Concerns
• Search Engine (New podcast from PJ Vogt of Reply All fame - if you haven’t listened to Reply All, there are a number of great episodes to enjoy)
• How Did This Get Made
• and occasionally Swindled (my girlfriend likes true crime stuff and this is about as close as I like to get to that)

Then why’d you post it? 😅

Wow, there’s a title I haven’t heard about in a while. Never played the original game, but played the first, and only iirc, “episode” of SiN that came out on the source engine.

How else you think they get up in them ears?

It could help identify and measure people on the autistic spectrum or similar.

Relay. And I still miss it. Better than any of the other apps I’ve tried for reddit or lemmy. Very smart design and UX that made it far more usable and enjoyable.

It would be half size, but I don’t know what full size is so that doesn’t help much. 😅 The photo next to the GameCube helps a bit, though.

Very nice work! I know you said 1:2 in the title, but how tall exactly does that work out to? 🤘

The $160 is a lifetime pass… I pay $20/mo for Netflix. That’s $240/year. So, if you think it’s worth it for even one year, compared to something like Netflix, then it’s a pretty solid value proposition.

I bought the lifetime pass in 2014 when it was $75. Been more than happy with that decision.

Light roasted coffee has more caffeine than dark roasted coffee.

Technically, per bean, more of the caffeine is cooked out of the dark roast. However, other things are also roasted out of a dark roast to the point that the individual beans are also lighter and smaller. When brewing coffee, usually you either weigh your dose of beans out, or you use a scoop for some consistency. Either method will result in more dark roast beans ultimately making it into the brew than would with a (larger, heavier) light roast.

Typically, this more than cancels out the reduced caffeine content per bean, so a brew of dark roast coffee still typically has more caffeine in it.

Any reason to use PiHole over something like Adguard DNS?
