A community may just be an object to some, but it is an object filled with people. A "fuck you" to the community is a personalized "fuck you" to everyone in it.

My grandmother's favorite music these days is hip pop.

Holy shit. After just getting nailed for almost 9% tax, which is not even my local tax rate, I am done with eBay for person-to-person sales for obsolete computer parts. Fuck. This.

I havent used eBay for a long time because the fees are just insane. Most my games are probably worth 10-20 dollars. After PayPal takes their cut, eBay is taking a solid 15% of that based on how they determine the final value fee. Shipping, i would absolutely have to charge for to make it worth it but man, $6 net profit on a $10 game is not a good feeling

I am reminded today of a young man whose life was unnecessarily ended by his own hand. I was both saddened and angered by this news as working with him I saw someone with talent, dreams, and unrealized potential. He left behind a son to whom, in life, he was a dedicated father.
If you are having thoughts of ending your life, injuring yourself, or simply cannot see a future for you in this world, please, please, seek help. You are never as alone as you think. You have friends and loved ones who are waiting for you, some desperate that you cannot find your way. No one in your life is better off without you. Where those close to you may not be able to help fully, a professional can, and there are many out there who care and will help.
It is easier now more than ever to reach someone who will help. Just call or send a text message to 988. Someone is there every hour of every day, for you. All you have to do is make the call. Asking for help is not weakness; it takes strength to reach out, and you have it in you to take that first step.

@GoldLeader I am sorry for your losses. A brother is tragic enough, but there is no reason, none whatsoever, a 19 year-old should feel the need to end a life which has barely begun.

Just a quick "boo hoo, woe is me," moment of self-pity so I can get past it. Been sick the past few days (no coof, just a run-of-the-mill sinus infection,) so I have been wanting to do a little programming on my down-time. But my back also decided to tweak, so now it hurts to sit at my desk chair or pretty much any useful position, and my laptop has something wrong with it that keeps cutting off the screen backlight.
Already replaced the laptop screen, not good so it is something with the motherboard so I found a full replacement which should be here tomorrow. I am on the mend, only experiencing fever at night, normal temp during the day, and my back is starting to feel better. So, there, got that off my chest.

I thought being laid up for a week would be a good opportunity to get some work done without distraction. I have been too groggy to even think crookedly, forget about thinking straight enough to do anything.

What's funny is whatever they replace it with usually ends up being way more open and exposed to the world as well as having such speed that it takes almost no time for a bad guy to set up bad things... they'd be better off with closed systems on dedicated trunks than running around in the current interwebz we have set up these dayz....

Every time I drop off at electronic waste, the number of CRT TVs out there is surprising, but I am absolutely amazed at the one or two projection TVs.

@jaybird3rd I have picked up a couple of 32" TVs on the street. They will not pick up TVs curb-side anymore, so that is good for me. Unfortunately, the dump does not allow carry-out.

No sympathy for anyone who nuke bridges and themselves in the process.

@Rick Dangerous No, but I like the cut of your jib!

I see black and silver and I want to paint it beige.

"We appreciate your patience. Someone will be with you momentarily." Yeah, well I do not appreciate your assumptions about my patience.

Godspeed, Chuck. Thank you.

Resoldering some stuff tonight? No flux given!

Not sure what you mean, but I have two bits of advice both taught and learned. You want to touch the pad, not the component if you can avoid it, but you can also touch the solder. If everything is clean then it will flow and stick where it is supposed to. Heating a board before working can help with stubborn solder joints on large grounding planes or particularly wide paths which act as heat-sinks making it damn near impossible to flow the solder. I have never done this and it would seem to m...
