A homelabber/sysadmin midlife crisis in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 23 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Is it really a midlife crisis when you're just buying the toys you ways wanted because you can finally afford it?

I built a ridiculous computer with RGB everything a few months back... It's dumb as hell but I always wanted one and at this point why not?

I simply became too erect at the thought of you eventually circling back to this thread and had to stop.

Still. So. Hard.

Edit: Omg he won't stop. Keep going!

Microsoft Teams is dog shit in c/[email protected]

Fuck everything about Microsoft products. The different licenses are a nightmare, the programs are shit, and "FUCK YOU FOR TRYING TO INSTALL A PROGRAM OR USE LOCAL STORAGE" seems to be the default.

Also I don't trust them not to be spying on users. But sure, every government job I've had we used the products.

Is "Red Storm Rising" by Tom Clancy considered a good book? Because I read it, and I'm not sure it should be. in c/[email protected]

Dianne Mott Davidson's books.

Don't get me wrong, I loved them as a kid, and it was a nice way to transition to "adult" books but not really my speed anymore and I imagine if I went back I'd think they were "bad."

Netflix decides to fill my recommendations with a bunch of boob service thumbnails.

I agree with this so hard. There are anime shows I'd love to watch with my wife but the ridiculous amount of "fan service" even those seem to have makes it a nonstarter.

I specifically remember liking Rainbow Six around the same time and I liked his books until he started tag teaming with other authors which was probably around 2000?

Based on that I imagine his books from 1986-2000 are "similar" enough.

But it usually doesn’t get over 70C in game, so I’m not going to mess with it.

So not an Intel build then?

I'm just salty as fuck that my last build randomly temp spikes for no goddamn reason that I can discern (and I just so happen to have one of the newer chips folks are complaining about).

I recall liking it, but I read it in like the 5th grade so my standards were low (before that I'd been reading my mom's terrible 'caterer turned detective' novels).

I enjoyed Clancy for a long time after that but at this point I aim more towards militaristic speculative fiction.

I'm surprised it hasn't been taken down yet ...well maybe not that surprised in c/[email protected]

So. Many. Words. That. I'm. Not. Reading.

They're mostly retarded so it'll be fine.
