  • I have mine set up in groups, per hard drive.

    Documents is set up for projects. Downloads gets grouped every few months and turned into a backup downloads folder on the backup hard drive.

    So it goes from C:/Downloads into H:/Backups/Downloads/Downloads-11-19-2024

    Every other hard drive is mostly just games, so it’s set up by project and the Games with whichever launcher.

    I don’t have many projects that go more than 6 folders deep, most would be 4 at most


  • Pepe was a neutral meme. He is not anymore.

    The sad reality is that he is a politicized figuredhead for fascism. You can try and use him, but you need to be aware of how others use him, and it will end up reflecting more poorly on you than it will help reclaiming him.

    I suggest looking the links on my comment linked, but at the very least on your own look up, “Pepe meme Putin”, and “was Pepe at January 6th”. People are using him to storm the capitol and dressing him up in an iron cross to assassinate political figures. That’s not just casual memes :(

    I say this as someone who grew up with his era of memes (my first memes were icanhazcheezeburger which was the precursor to RageFu). I remember his good days too man.

    But Pepe got Alex Jonesed. He got assaulted by the MAGA cult and they put him on a cross like Jesus and now he’s dying for their sins. I don’t think we can save him.













  • Oh, believe me I 100% agree with you on both points. Just look through my history, 110% agree in full. The DNC’s choice, while frustrating, made sense. I think acting early would have been the way to actually get a primary, and that wasn’t happening because Biden decided he wasn’t a 1 term President for a little while. Because of this people around here blame the DNC for causing this situation in the first place, which I’m 50/50 on. The situation was from the DNC, but at the same time, if Harris wasn’t your first choice and you have no other alternatives, why the heck didn’t anyone vote for Ranked Choice Voting on their ballot? It failed nation wide. And people point out that abortion won in red states, as if that changes my point? Granted, ranked choice could have been different for each states ballot, I’m not certain on what the specifics are for each state, or why they might have failed if abortion passed.

    However in post election, the Greens got what, 1 million votes? At least they voted, at all. I don’t really think it’s the greens and most of those voters that were telling people to not vote. The fact of the matter is that with our numbers in the electoral college, they all could have voted for Harris, all Democrats could have voted for Stein, it wouldn’t have mattered, because people didn’t show up to vote.

    I think that it was a combination of a lack of enthusiasm for Harris after staying so strongly pro-Israel instead of more heavily actively campaigning for, at the very least, a two state solution. Though really we all know that we want the genocide to end, and that was all the campaigning that would really be needed.

    It would be a different story if it was 75 million to 74 million (Harris) down to a swing state or two in the E.C., but it wasn’t. It was a blowout because people didn’t go vote.

    So whatever caused people to choose not to vote was really the issue. What those are though will be different depending on who you ask (and in reality, any answer is probably a correct answer for about a thousand people)
