I bought 32gb of DDR5 in September for $85. I tried to compare it to today's prices, but it's totally sold out.
The closest comparable RAM I can find in stock now is $350ish.

I need more headlines like this in my life.
We don’t do court reports, especially when it comes to violent crime, but there’s always an exception.

I remember when I started watching art tutorials being very confused by how artists held pencils and brushes.
So often I saw them grasping *very* far from the business end. Not close to the tip like with writing.
The long lever arm felt unstable at first, but I'm getting the hang of it.

Sir, I'd happily accept one pizza with anything
This dog was spotted politely waiting by a pizza truck. He doesn’t have to say what he wants. They already know his order. It is pizza. 13/10 (IG: lauren.bardini)

Super weird netflix bug:
Just after 2 min in to each episode, I'm getting a blank black screen while audio continues. Refreshing, clearing cache, etc, all fail to resolve it.
What seems to work every time is to go login to netflix in edge, resume playback, then copy the whole url back into chrome

Great thread.
Look, if you're not an expert you wouldn't know, but this chart is bullshit. They could not possibly measure this as 1. How can you tell for sure? There's no reliable automated way. 2. You're not counting the many sites that are blocking crawlers now.
But there's an even more important reason...

This is a terrific read about Film, Art, Culture, Bread, Thought.

What your Thanksgiving weekend needs is 7,500 words on Walter Benjamin, William Morris, and Film Photography with a broad motion towards what this all means for Cultural Work in the Age of AI Reproduction. Also many pretty pictures!

Was just looking over some games to push my recent gaming box build.
Black Myth: Wukong needs 130GB of disk space just to start playing, and obviously will grow from there with upgrades and such.
I wonder how many computers I owned before they collectively added up to 130GB of storage.

The colors, lighting, texture...this is so cool.
More musings from the Deity series I’ve been noodling on. A WIP from a collection of cultist designs, a group of servants that worship the serpent themed Deity. I’m currently exploring their motifs, outfits, equipment and eventually their locations of worship.

I'm not minimizing any of the countless other reasons he should be drafting his resignation.
It's that he said this to a woman. In her workplace. In front of her colleagues. While she does her job.
It's a disgrace. He owes her an apology, and so do all of his voters, frankly.

I really love watching him go on these affordability rants. That might actually be thing that opens a lot of eyes - you can lie to people about a whole lot of things, but trying to convince them that things are 25% cheaper now than they were last Thanksgiving is going to be a very hard sell.

I looked at my pill case. "Huh, I missed Thursday". Removed Thurs and Fri pills, looked at calendar, put Fri back.
I guess it's only Thursday then.

The cruelty is the point.
So here's where we are, Sunday morning:
Trump is trying to starve hungry kids in order to bully Democrats into abandoning our fight against health care premium increases.
So Trump is starving kids in order to deny families health care.
Dystopian.

There are a ton of settings in there - many of which most people should probably leave on hide (spam/scam/illicit/etc)
I've turned them all to warn, because I want to see what it's trying to protect me from. I kinda like that they're all there, but default feels like it should be warn. (1/2)

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

this is really annoying man my tablet was purchased new in 2019. I spent 2000 dollars on It and it works perfectly fine. Why should anyone buy an expensive tech product that's going to brick in 6 years

He ran on an unabashedly pro-transgender platform, stood up for the most vulnerable, as so many have pushed for the Democratic Party to abandon trans people in order to win.
Major win for trans New Yorkers - he has vowed for intense resistance to anti-trans Trump policies.
