Me too. Gimp is awesome. I can do everything I want and more really easily. I just don’t get the hate. Photoshop is cancer, it’s slower than Gimp and it’s not even worth pirating. It hurts Adobe more if you use open source alternatives.

HP can go fuck themselves

Imagine hosting an event so lame that it makes international news solely because of how incredibly lame it was. Just damn.

You can pirate media that uses that new blu ray drm by plugging a capture card into the overpriced compatible DVD player and recording the video. Also, it’s a way to transfer saved content from a dvr as their hard drives are always encrypted (do those still exist). The video stream on all this stuff is encrypted with hdcp to prevent this but there exist hdcp strippers. It seems to still be possible to buy them even on Amazon. Stock up before they get banned. Frankly I’m surprised they aren’t banned already.

I hope they actually end up calling it the Very Big Disc ™

The only disadvantage of display port that I can think of is that it’s harder to find capture devices (or at least Linux compatible ones) that have display port. Generally no one cares about that stuff though. I use capture cards because I sometimes do stuff involving other computers and it’s 1000 times more convenient to have a vlc window floating around with the display output.

No one seems to have this use case besides me, I’m just glad that there exist capture cards fast enough to do playback in real-time and not a 5 second delay. I don’t stream.

The soil where I live is only good enough for 5.25in floppy plants to grow.

OK fine. I just went outside and poked at the grass for several minutes. Now what?

I did fast food for a long time and don’t really see how lowering prices when it’s not busy then increasing them during peak hours is going to do less harm than good. I think it would make more sense to charge a little less when they’re busy and have lots of employees and can make food faster. Then charge the normal price when it’s slow and they have less employees.

It’s probably more about impressing investors as having bigger numbers in your sales report during peak hours looks good.

I was just joking kind of. I am a struggling computer engineering student always looking for ways to use my skills to earn a little extra income. What type of system compatibility would you need? Arduino compatible serial? Vintage AT motherboards? Some other thing like maybe a commander x16? If people really would be willing to buy homebrew graphics cards like that maybe I’ll look into it.

It was too “easy” for regular users to get upvotes and too hard for bots to get upvotes probably. Certain comments and posts now have downvote caps of 0 points so depending on what agenda a comment supports, it may not be possible to downvote into negative numbers.

As a rule of thumb, anything you say is getting downvoted but if someone else posts the same thing, it gets highly upvoted. Reddit is cancer.

Huh, I thought you were supposed to use -sri. I hate dealing with the AUR, that stuff doesn’t work half the time. I’m sure there are reasons for making it annoying like that but I haven’t really put much thought into it before. I’d like to think making the AUR a pain in the ass makes things less likely to break, and hopefully that’s not just because you’re less likely to install AUR packages.

Here I was thinking “lol how fucked up would it be to name your kid Pia. It sounds like pee”. Turns out it’s a real thing

Other than volunteering to help your farmer neighbor butcher his animals, what’s the next cheapest way to get meat?

Yet another reason I never buy anything from Nintendo. Fuck those fucks. On average only like 2 Nintendo games per console generation are ever any good anyway. They should be held responsible for all the e-waste they generate.

Uuh I was planning on scamming people by making low quality anvils but this works too.

You can also make copies of Ben Eater’s “world’s worst video card”, put it on a pcb with an isa slot and wait for goobers to buy them on ebay. As long as it can actually output video you don’t have to accept returns.
