Well and the attachments we did send were rarely anywhere close to 2MB. Uploading 2MBs on dial-up was TORTURE, especially my shitty rural dial-up.

As someone from Indiana, Todd Young still fucking sucks - just not in the insurrection way.

I stream because i enjoy playing single player games and it's nice having people to hang out with and share the experiences. I know I will never "hit it big", I don't have enough time to put in since I work full time. But I enjoy playing video games and it's cool to make a little side cash on your hobby.

The biggest toxicity in streaming is typically from yourself. Always watching your followers numbers and viewership, wondering what you did because one stream did worse than another. I find myself falling into that trap as well sometimes and it definitely makes wanting to stream again hard.

As someone who has lived in Indiana for 31 years, if you actually talk to people without mentioning R or D, a large percentage of their values like up with Democrats. But as soon as you compare that to democratic policies, they immediately go into excuses for why they'd never vote for a Democrat. Abortion is really the only Republican policy that they support, and even then a lot of them still support it "but not the way the Democrats do, up to the moment before birth".

The issue is that Democrats practically ignore us here so there's no information campaigns to correct all the misinformation they get from Fox news and the like.

It's really frustrating going back to my rural bumfuck town and seeing all the legitimately good people who have been brainwashed into Republican support by friends and neighbors.

Chances are enterprise drives will last far longer than 5 years easily in my experience, but in my opinion 15% off isn't enough to justify not having a warranty. I see those sales often enough on legitimate drives.

Enterprise drive sales aren't restricted in anyway, you just need to buy them from a reputable seller. I personally would avoid Amazon, there are tons of "deals" like the one you found on there and they don't make it obvious. A legitimate seller example - https://www.connection.com/product/seagate-8tb-exos-7e10-sata-6gb-s-512e-4kn-fastformat-3.5-internal-hard-drive/st8000nm017b/41308811?cac=Result

Not if they worked 24/7 and didn't ask for health benefits or retirement.

I'm my experience it's mostly 60+ yo adults that type in all caps.

99% of the people in that office had absolutely nothing to do with the decision that upper management made. They are just working for a living. They didn't choose anything, they chose to not starve. Fuck off with punishing the entire work force for the greed of a few individuals.

As someone who has worked with enterprise servers/networking for over 10 years now, I avoid any videos where they're talking about their servers or networking. I've watched a lot of them but the mistakes and odd choices make it unenjoyable for me personally. I have always chalked it up to them dumbing it down for their audience but maybe it's inexperience.

Either way, I enjoy a lot of their content but haven't used their reviews to pick out new products for a long time.

You know things have gone wrong when people are cheering on Oracle.
