  • So long as you're using the spinning rust hdds, the noise of the CPU cooler won't make much difference. Mind you, this PC will be a bit too loud for the living room like this.

  • If you're already going for spinning rust hard disks, why limit yourself to the 3 TB ones? IMHO, these days, spinning rust only makes sense at 8 TB+ per disk.

  • You still don't need to turn the AC up to the point where some people start freezing.

    IMHO, it's not the slightest bit unreasonable to just expect everybody in the office to be able to deal with any temperature between 20C (68F) and 24C (75F) without complaining.

  • Carrying a long-sleeved shirt with you in case it gets a bit chilly is not unreasonable.

  • If it's 21 C / 70 F outside, just leave all A/C and heating off. You don't need them.

  • That's idiotic.

  • then they blast personal space heaters in their offices while the AC is on.

    Okay, that's more than just mildly irritating. That's massively irritating.

  • Is it legal to DIY that if you're not a certified electrician?

  • They forgot Rockbox. I still have an old Sansa Clip with Rockbox on it that plays Doom with no problems.

  • The Trump administration has been known to just randomly, unilaterally withdraw visas on a whim. You'd have to be crazy to accept that bargain when they just might kick you out anyway and keep your money.

  • Nobody would have believed him anyway.

  • I don't think he's right about America's founding ideas. Free enterprise, maybe. But capitalism is a different beast, and only came to America much later. The young country's first taste of real capitalism was the East India Company and their tea trading business. And look how they reacted to that.

    I don't think capitalism was what the USA's founding fathers had in mind at all. I do think the linguistic conflation of "free market" with "capitalism" is an intentional large scale psy-op designed to make people forget that. And it's working.

  • Any further "helpful" information in that error message would be a security issue.

  • And what the goddamn hell is “true wood” supposed to distinguish?

    I suppose if it contains lignin, it's really wood, otherwise it just kinda looks like wood at best. If it's real wood, most animals, with a few exceptions here and there, cannot directly digest it.

  • Wait, basil?

    Rosemary, I get (and also thyme, btw), but basil? At best, the dried out stalks of a basil can look a bit woody, but that's true for a lot of plants.

  • There are bio-accumulative toxins that really do get stuck in your body. Lead is a good example. Not that the supposed cures being peddled by these people can actually do anything about those.

    Also, for the normal kind of toxin, the biggest factor keeping the levels in your body high is continued intake. Reducing that totally makes sense. However, you need to first have a real, based on science, understanding of what those toxins are in the first place and not just randomly blame junk food or 5G radiation, and it needs to be a permanent life style change. A two week "cleanse" does nothing. A juice will not detoxify you. (Depending on the juice, especially how filtered and how sugary it is, it may be healthy for other reasons. Standard orange juice is not, it's way too sugary.)

  • Literacy rates in medieval times were not what they are today, but they're still routinely underestimated. Most places, including peasant villages, would have had some people around who could read.

    Then again, it also depends heavily in what part of the middle ages you are talking about. Early, high and late middle ages were almost different worlds in many regards.
