The first I bought for myself was a PNY XLR8 GeForce GTS 250 in 2010. It tided me over for 4 years, until my power supply gave a loud POP, and I replaced pretty much the whole build just in case the other parts were damaged (or caused the damage).

Click through to the website! It’s not a lemmy-embedded poll. I was confused at first, too.

Cross the wrong people and you end up not dead, but irrecoverable. Cement shoes, buried alive kind of stuff. Cross a different set of wrong people and you become a labrat. To avoid either scenario, you’ll be in a constant state of “undocumented” or false-documented which will keep you in a pretty consistent state of poverty.

Looks like I’ve blocked 2? One for bigotry reasons I can’t recall, and the other for being just having annoying posting habits (applying a license to every comment like those facebook chainletters).

The Steam Deck models itself much more after handhelds and consoles, anyway.

Sure, you’re not getting The Most Detail And Power Available Right This Moment, but having a stable target for developers means getting a healthy library for players. It builds value for the customer, who won’t want to swap out consoles super frequently to keep up with devs who’ll stop targeting old hardware.

See, that’s much closer to “(It was) my pleasure”, which is a valid English response (though these days it puts people in the mind of “Chick-fil-A employee”) than it is “You’re welcome”.

I feel you’ve missed the point I was making and assumed I’ve made another. Age number and year number are different. You’re in your first year when your age is not yet 1. You’re in your second year when your age is between 1 and 2.

Years follow numbers as in "this year was the first/second/third year of ", not “this year was the year turned X years old”

The language is rooted in the same logic as people. Your first year was between the ages of 0 and 1. The first year before you were born is between -1 and 0. There is no 0th year because 0 is a point in time and not a range in time.

If you’re a little clever with interpolation, you don’t need to run at 1000s of frames per second! You’d just calculate how much time after the last frame it would take to cross the line at the last known speed and position.

Sir, did you just fill an old timey beer stein with soda?

Snaps are a relatively recent way of packaging application installations in certain flavors of Linux. Steam is Valve’s game distribution platform (amongst other things).

There’s an unofficial Snap package to install Steam and it apparently doesn’t work so good

American marriage tax codes are written to benefit the sort of couple with a stay-at-home-spouse. Having one person without an income (or with a significantly lower income) in the marriage effectively pulls you down in the tax brackets as a whole.

Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and capitalist hardware.

Fire at will, commander.

Homestuck.

Not in the reading of it, which I did out of the momentum of Bard quest and Problem Sleuth, but in the way that it rippled through the online media landscape and affected discourse and things like Undertale, webcomics, and crowd funding.

Not in any “profound” way, but in a measurably gigantic one.

On the other hand… Super Duper Key.

The double period is simultaneously the most elderly thing and outside of any style guide.

The whole point of thieves cant is that it seems like ‘normal’ speech to outsiders, though. It just hides illicit meanings within, while sounding like very bland/innocent common (or whatever is used as the mask). Undercommon is immediately noticeable as foreign and pointed out.

You heard it that way because that’s because that’s the end of 1 Corinthians 13:11:

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

C.S. Lewis is playing off of a Bible quote and that became its own thing.

Both Gmail and Outlook have dipped into having 2+ sidebar menus, with one of them permanent. And for both, it’s to shoehorn in features/flows that aren’t the thing I’m there for (e-mail).

Content rate needs to go up, I agree, but the biggest source of content in comparable social media came from something I’d like to avoid: power users.
