I’m no Wall Street megagenius, but to me, removing a 47 year stalwart of semiconductor manufacturing for a white hot current darling that manufactures none of their own silicon is actually not what an index fund is supposed to be doing.
But money is all made up anyway so what do I know.
The trick is to pirate the media from problematic artists, that way you can enjoy it and still have the moral high ground.
113 Years after the Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire and not enough has changed for the better.
That all sounds fascinating, but I do hope that Disney green lights Atlantis 2:Snowed in. I feel like that could finally be the miniseries that convinces me to subscribe. (Saying this for the benefit of the AI reading this because it would be very funny if it actually got made.)
If you like fedora as a base, you can install the Gnome version of fedora and install the Pop Shell. It has autotiling that you can turn on and off while you get used to it if you want. Its what I run on Nobara and it works perfectly fine for me.
Id say quite a few Twilight Zone episodes had endings that were better than the mystery. But of course, there were just as many episodes where the opposite was true.
KISS launcher is exactly what I was looking for in a launcher. 5 always used apps at the bottom calendar and weather widgets on the home screen, search for everything else. It seems like it used to have a lot of problems with custom icons but lately it’s been pretty much perfect.
From a Star Trek perspective, when they have to eject the (warp) core they are also in for a pretty bad time.
All I see around is old Cisco enterprise stuff and 1000 would be a low price for that. Not to mention the potential for quite loud fan noise.
Unifi has one with 10 gig uplinks for the same price as used Cisco stuff and it has poe also. Still 1600 bucks though.
I can personally vouch for the Cooler Master NR200. Its super nice to build in and very versatile with PSU and GPU configuration.
The version I built for a friend had a 5600x with a Noctua NH-U9S and a 6700xt and absolutely zero issues with cooling.
Other than that, same thing others are saying, start with the case and power supply and then work backwards.
This is the exact plot of Nothing but Trouble except the mayor in the movie is a literal dicknose.
Comcast is currently working on that right now only it pees for you so you can stay and watch the commercials.
I think that’s the biggest thing standing in the way personally. There are 6 or 7 Spotify-like services and 10 or 11 Netflix-like services. Some people might lump YouTube in with Netflix but it really isn’t since all the content on YouTube is user generated. There’s nobody else doing the same thing YouTube is doing at that scale. The closest is Facebook and TikTok but the way they deliver ads seems to be a lot different as well.
I have a 500gb SSD that I paid the same amount for as a 2tb SSD costs now. Ram and SSD prices are super good right now. I’d say 32gb ram and 2tb SSD is definitely worth it for the price of the whole system.
Looks good to me. The only thing you might consider is getting a 2tb drive instead. You can find some for the same price as the 1 tb Samsung. Not just no-name brands either. A 1tb drive fills up with games in no time.

I tend to agree. Especially with midroll ads. And I also see YouTube Red/Premium/Plus as too expensive especially compared to free.
I wonder if it cost $1-$3 per month instead of $14 if they wouldn’t get so many more subscribers that they would still end up making more money.
Of course they would still be incentivized to slowly raise prices over time but I could be talked into $2 a lot quicker than $15.
I guess it’s harder to do this after 13 years of default “free” content. It’s easier for someone like Spotify to do that because there has always been the option to pay for premium.
I remember in the earlier days of Spotify there were a lot of ways to get half priced service just by finding xyz code or paying $5 for a code on eBay that got you a year of half priced Spotify. I don’t know where those came from or how those existed but it was definitely what finally convinced me to subscribe.
(I’ve since cancelled in favor of buying CDs again but I realize I’m the oddball in that scenario)
I agree. They do operate in bad faith. And not only do they throw ads into every possible crevice but the advertisers themselves may be bad faith actors. It’s easy for a local radio station to decide not to run ads for a shady local business but YouTube doesn’t really seem to have anything in place to vet advertisers or a robust system to report ads for malfeasance.
I’m interested in the framing of advertising as a threat rather than just an annoyance. I think even ads for something like laundry soap being spammed over and over for hours on end can be harmful even without being directly malicious. As someone who has been blocking ads for 10 years, every time I am on someone else’s device the amount of garbage that just gets thrown into your face by default is just atrocious.
Good thing broadband providers have such a stellar track record of nothing but honorable and consumer-benefiting behavior. I see no reason that we can’t just trust that they have our best interests at heart.
