I've actually been considering using 128gb recently. I'm only considering this as I'm thinking about turning a server of mine into my primary desktop and it has 128gb in it already because I was using a RAM disk to generate large files in memory. I'm now done with that project and it feels silly having this powerful PC sitting here doing nothing.

I have 32gb and I always suggest others to get that much as a baseline theses days. I rarely ever use anywhere close to the full 32gb, but I am often times at or near 16gb in use. The main benefit of having 32gb is in my case I'll basically never be hitting the pagefile, but if you only had 16gb you'll probably rarely max out on ram usage, but you'll probably be hitting the pagefile more often.

With the proliferation of fast SSDs and NVME drives hitting the pagefile is considerably less impactful than it use to be with spinning disks, but it's still slower than RAM.

I believe the correct term is "spaghettification" and it's not your ordinary everyday spaghettification, but one that happens at an atomic level.

The nice thing about anyone ever bringing up 4D chess is that you know from that point on they have nothing of value to say.

You should be able to plug a small switch into the router and then you'll have more ports available. I'd suggest 1gb or faster, depending on the speed limitations of the ports on the router you could go for a faster switch if you think you'd need it.

From my understanding he's a big proponent of the simulation theory, so he's probably cool with being a shit person because it's all a simulation anyways. I'd wager that he sees himself as a player in a video game and he's going for high scores.

Percussive maintenance is surprisingly helpful a lot of the time.

Helping prevent tooth decay is the whole point of fluoridated water isn't it? I also believe dental health has been linked to other health issues like increased risk of heart disease and stroke.

I can second this. I got back into playing my 3DS last year and was quickly reminded how frustrating it was having to keep your head in the perfect spot for the 3D effect to work correctly. I ended up buying a New 3DS and was blown away by how well the head tracking worked and how big of an improvement it made to the experience when playing with 3D turned on.

I have the unfortunate role of informing you that the Sun will not explode. It will, in fact, expand to become a red giant, swallowing the Earth or at least vaporizing it in the process, and will eventually shrink down to become a white dwarf.

So sadly there will be no super nova or massive explosion, but I'm sure it'll be a pretty wild process to watch in about 5 billion years.

If the shield were to be made concave and faced towards its origin, it could end up focusing it back to where it came from as well.

Isn't there a problem with subsonic audio in that it's really hard to determine the direction it's coming from? Although with a crowd big enough I suppose you could probably get a visual indicator of where the source is based off of people's reaction to it.

Edit: After watching the video I don't really think a person holding a shield would be able to reflect something that was able to clear a space as wide as a street. I'd also wager that the people welding such a weapon likely have the appropriate hearing protection to keep the system from effecting their selves.

Pretty easy to disable the location app permission or set it to ask every time. Firefox hasn't asked me to enable it since turning it off.

Are you me? This is almost exactly how I do it, with only some small modifications.

I've seen a couple of things that I wish I hadn't, but I never opened a link to a beheading video. That was definitely one line I wasn't willing to cross.

Weirdly enough, I like buying movies to encourage people to keep making the kinds of movies I enjoy watching. I have some physical media, but often times you can't find 4k versions of movies on physical media.

Also, I tend to buy digital and don't watch subscription services much.

On the rare occasion I want to stream movies while on my PC at 1080p, because most online movie services will only stream 1080p to Edge. Some times Chrome will be allowed to stream 1080p but it's pretty hit or miss in my experience. On another note, basically no streaming services will stream movies to you in 4k on a PC, I've also found most streaming apps on my phone won't give me 4k either, you can only really get 4k streaming to a smart TV... it's pretty ridiculous.

There is such thing as loose leaf tea where you don't use tea bags when brewing.

After a bit further reading of the article it looks like they also found that certain types of tea bags helped.

Only using even numbers for volume or brightness.

Can 5 be an honorary even number?

I may have to finally make the switch. Are there any initial pains that you found from switching?

I think what they are maybe trying to convey is that when you're lost in the throes of schizophrenia you aren't exactly operating on valid logic so it's hard to even realize that you are doing the things that you are doing. If that makes any sense.
