How about, fuck all religious extremism.

The average car purchased in 2023 emits higher levels of carbon dioxide (CO₂) than its 2013 equivalent. This is due to the large proportion of SUVs in the mix, which tend to be bigger and heavier. in c/[email protected]

100% agree. I'm a handyman and drive an outback. People are usually surprised when I open the hatch and it's full of my tool boxes.

I do absolutely nothing with mine other than wash/condition/comb.

A new lifer was resting on my deck this morning. I believe its an Ovenbird. in c/[email protected]

I'm not sure what was going on, I'm hoping it was just tired. I have some stray cats in the neighborhood so I managed to grab it and look it over (I've got a zoology degree, and used to be a zookeeper, I don't usually try to handle wildlife but wanted to make sure it was okay). I put it up in a nearby tree to get it off the ground. It flew higher up into the tree, and was gone about an hour later when I went to check on it.

What is a hobby you enjoy, but seems too quirky or obscure to bring up in most conversations? in c/[email protected]

Check out toool. It's where I started when I got into the hobby.

I'm hoping to (finally) upgrade my gpu from my gtx 1060, but before I do I want to make sure there isn't a different part I should upgrade first. in c/[email protected]

I've been gaming on sub 60fps for so long I don't mind only running games at 60. The monitors were a gift from a friend and I don't have any intent to replace them soon.

All of those gpus are way over my desired budget.

I'm not great at understanding a lot of the technical aspects of the different pc parts, and especially figuring out where any potential bottle necks are. I'm thinking that the gpu is my biggest issue right now, but I'd hate to spend the money and not get a huge improvement in performance.

p.s. I'm leaning towards the RX 6600 for a budget friendly upgrade, but I'd be open to other similarly priced suggestions.

Update: thanks for all of the advice y'all. I ended up spending a bit more for a 6650xt.
