Pretty close to having everything I wanted from the #wingcommander franchise now. WC2 addons and Privateer speech pack to go.

Why are parents so… this? There were 66 comments before mine all advising punishment as a first response for a 16 year old who had begun vaping.

Well, that wasn’t easy to fix.

Does anyone know if there were any board partner differences in the models with these 780 Ti cards that would make one a better choice than the other? (One is #NVIDIA, one is EVGA). I haven't done any benchmarking. Tech specs list the same.

An update to my post last year where the 1992 McLaren was on clothing alongside text saying 1988. Today’s entry in the things my wife sent me because she knows it will infuriate me:

Some deer moving through our property today. We’ve had Deer, Raccoon, Possums and lots of Coyotes.

Do you have one of these?

This past weekend my youngest daughter, who is autistic, got to compete with an all-abilities Cheerleading team. The coaches spent many evenings with me sat watching, learning the physical and mental capabilities of every girl on the team, and they completely nailed it.

Sat on the front porch waiting for my youngest daughter to get off her school bus while figuring out my next upgrade.

Here, curious men, that's how much she loves me. MAIN LEVEL.

Sheila and I have now been married for 18 years. Somehow she looks exactly the same, which means as I've aged she's just become more interested in older men.

AM5 x86 P75 133MHz, Pentium 100MHz, Pentium III 700MHz, Pentium 4 2.4GHz and Athlon 64 X2 3800+ systems built, OSs installed etc. Now hopefully someday my brain will let me use things I setup, not just enjoy the setup itself. 🫠

While celebrating the loss of DEI, be sure to think of my learning-disabled daughter having lost the support to be INCLUDED in the workforce someday. Here is the Meijer Web site before the election and today. #diversity #equity #inclusion

Six years ago I started making a roleplay journal type thing about playing #elitedangerous

Nobody watched it, so I stopped. Because f*ck you. 🤣 But it was so much fun to make.

Coyote packs can be a bit crazy sometimes.

I kinda hate how AI is misleading people on GPU performance. In order to see 4090 performance on a 5070 you'll need DLSS 4. Unless I missed something, this means the developer has to implement DLSS 4, and do it properly, to avoid the artifacting often seen in racing games specifically.

I'm pretty sure Damon Hill overtook under the yellow flag.

I’m not sure I can afford my oldest daughter. We walked into the mall and she said: “I love the smell of the mall. I love hearing the swiping of the cards.”
