Woop woop, that's the sound of the police

Just a reminder that the guy in charge of the USPS is the same guy as in 2020 when they tried cutting back postal services and decomissioning sorting machines in the run up to the election in "an attempt to be profitable."

Cubic warming is getting out of hand, I swear! I'm sweating my blocks off.

Fast boot is just Windows logging you out of your session, then hibernating.

Sleep is keeping the computer in a low-power state with RAM powered on..

Both of these have been known to result in laptops powering on unbeknownst to their owners to perform updates and remain powered on afterward.

I live nowhere near the tropics. In fact, I live in a place where I could actually see polar bears and arctic foxes if I was so inclined. I like that they exist, but I don't want them anywhere near me, as specist as that may sound.

How much you wanna bet that if this was an artic fox, or polar bear attack, the words inner city would never have appeared in this article…

Ok, that's fair, but polar bears and arctic foxes aren't known to frequent the tropics.

Windows by default doesn't fully power off when you tell it to shut down. It goes into hibernation and keeps the network open for updates and will sometimes power back on to complete these updates.

If you want to fully power off, hold the left shift key when you click shut down. Or turn the power off elsewhere (eg. psu or power bar.) I'm sure there's another way to do it, or to prevent the behavior entirely.

IIRC Doom didn't have a skybox per se, just parallax ceiling textures. You could put that texture on floors or ceilings and it would show the sky texture that would not be attached to the walls.

Nobody wants to admit they ate 9 cans of ravioli.

Zucchini is shaped like a penis. It doesn't get any more manly than that.

Looks like a limited bomb to me.

Bamboozled! Foisted! Smeckledorfed!

 

I just bought a nice OLED monitor and I'm trying to take advantage of it to play my games in HDR. If I run my games in gamescope, then HDR runs fine but my PS4 controller doesn't work. If I play without gamescope, the controller works, but HDR does not.

I've been trying to figure this out for a bit, and some people have been having some luck with the -e flag, which does nothing for me.I've tried Steam Input and overlay in all combinations of enabled and disabled and I've tried in big picture/gamepadui. Either way I have to choose between HDR and the controller. Has anyone gotten this to work?

 

This is one of two habanero plants I started as an experiment a couple months ago. This one has about 40 peppers growing on it right now and a ton of open flowers.

It spent most of its time in a tent, but I brought it outside about a month ago, and it's taking quite a liking to real sunshine.
