I realized today, it's been a minute since I head the "glass is actually a very slow moving liquid" myth from someone. Just wondering if there's been anything else like this since you were a kid.

Windows 10/11 is a requirement because it will be a shared console, sorry y'all. I'm considering a refurb'ed model on eBay because some include Win10 Pro licenses, which would save ~$80 versus building from scratch.

The PC would be used for streaming media through Plex and maybe some light gaming via SteamLink, so specs aren't very important as long as it can handle basic web browsing and graphic output.

Has anyone here had any experience with these? I would imagine they're pretty no-fuss boxes given that they're business-class units, but I also understand that they're several years old. What' the upgradeability of them like? What specific models/SKUs would be recommended for this use / are there any other SFF PCs that are comparable?

Trump is a pedo with several decades of documented creepy behavior.

There. "Explained."

Met Shaq for about ten seconds in Atlanta about five years ago. I'm not big into sports but knew who he was and pointed to him and said "Hey, aren't you famous?" He laughed and said "I guess so." We talked for a second about the city and he went on his day. My general impression was that he was a nice, down to earth guy.

Don't do that. Don't get my hopes up.

I know these stories are always fake anyway but holy shit, buy a bike and chill out for a few years.

These mean nothing for as long as the US government continues to contract work for these projects through private companies. This country needs a publicly-funded and operated office of construction. Otherwise, be prepared to watch that $8.2b amount to a couple hundred feet of rail and go 10x past budget and schedule

"Weezer is a shitty corporate sell-out band" hasn't been breaking news in like three decades. Their music video for Buddy Holly came on the Windows 95 installation disc for God's sake

This isn't a meme.

Imagine actually being scared for your safety because your mom saw you watching porn. As long as I wasn't like 10 years old, my parents would've probably just laughed at me and told me to keep it to myself.

It's pretty sad that some people actually live like that, though.

I went to a major medical university and studied humanities. The amount of soon-to-be doctors and nurses complaining about why they needed to study things like ethics, philosophy, or history astounded me, it's like these people didn't want to deal with the human aspect of medicine and instead just wanted to make money.

I wouldn't be shocked if more medschool students dropped out from the humanities courses than the medical ones, they hated it
