The Bark and Below It by the Olivia Tremor Control.

Good luck to ya.

Non-joke answer, I'd be curious to hear what kinda lyrics you could give to Hang Up Your Hang Ups by Herbie Hancock.

I'd send a picture of my middle finger.

I prefer OpenShell, since it unfucks the start menu and makes it usable. It's just like Win7 but easy to customize.

Weed. Not much else does.

I'm too fucking lazy to kill myself, that's what.

The game doesn't support DirectX 12 because the game is younger than DirectX 12.

Xbox: Good, short, sweet, memorable. Xbox 360: Odd, but different name, referring to the console being meant to be used as an all in one media center. Xbox One: Confusing since people were calling the original Xbox the Xbox 1. Xbox Series X: whyyyyy

Playstation: Just increment the number, mate.

Inspired by the very similar thread about school incidents.

Apologies if this post ain't right for this community! I'm admittedly not interested in self-hosting myself, but I've a close buddy who's wanting to get back to streaming, but rightfully hates Amazon. He's wanting to self-host with Owncast to do video streaming with his pals, but lives in a very small flat with very little free space - hence the request for a laptop.

Ideally he's needing something great for video encoding, and Linux friendly to boot. No Windows. Mate's got a budget of ~£1,000.

If there's a better community for this lemme know!

After a best mate of mine introduced me to Fela Kuti's works I've been real interested in hearing music from other cultures you don't hear much stuff from. Doesn't have to be traditional music styles (love it when genres and cultures fuse together, like Masayoshi Takanaka taking influence from Brazilian music), but I'd love to hear that as well!

(I know Linux is better than Windows, there's a better time and place for that talk)

SPECS: OS: Windows 10 Pro N Motherboard: MSI MPG B550 Gaming Plus CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X GPU: NVidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti RAM: 4x HyperX Fury DDR4 8GB sticks (two rated for one clock speed, the other two rated for another. As I understand it the faster sticks will just run at the speed of the lower two, and it deffo ain't causing issues cause I've tested games with just one pair or the other. Both gave me crashes)

Minidump file: https://www.mediafire.com/file/g34xykxagp29246/050524-8937-01.dmp/file

Simply put, built a custom Windows machine and it gives me BSODs on many more recent games. Deep Rock Galactic, crashes within seconds to minutes of actual gameplay (not including the hub). Remnant: From the Ashes, crashes within minutes on the overworld. Starfield, crashes within minutes to two hours. Blood West, crashes within five minutes of gameplay. Helldivers 2 works fine ingame, but once I quit the game it blue screens within seconds of returning to the desktop.

I've reinstalled drivers. I've disabled sound drivers. I've popped the computer open and reseated everything at least two or three times so far. RAM was tested using MemTest86, no issues at all. CPU temps tend not to exceed anything higher than the 70-75 range ingame (hot, but my processor is rated for up to 90 Celsius). I've reapplied thermal paste four times. I'm on my third install of Windows so far, with this being the Pro N version rather than the Pro version I tried the first two installs. I've had a bit of a go at googling the highlighted files in the Minidump file, but at this point I'm all but giving up. If the Internet can't fix this shit, I'll just sell the components or machine at a loss and stick with an older gaming laptop.

Last time a recruiter harassed me via text he tried to convince me of all the kickass benefits and fun of being in the military. Straight up just told him "Dude, if you put a gun in my hand, you're going to be responsible for a suicide. Not happening." For some reason he never replied.

One of my favorite things to do while stoned is listen to albums that are really unique, artful, and/or jam packed with soul and energy, as in that head space music just hits completely differently and it just lends to me finding a deep love and appreciation for the art of music. What're some of your favorites?

Docked an hour of our pay because, after we'd caught up on all of our tasks and had no chores or customers to handle, we played a bit of cards in the gift shop office to kill a bit of time. Corporate didn't like that we weren't doing stuff, despite the fact that we had literally nothing else to do, so they retroactively took away an hour of our pay.

I've already emailed the labor board about this since, looking into it, pay can only be docked before the time is worked, not after.

Nah. I'm just gonna keep deadnaming Twitter for as long as Musk keeps deadnaming his child.

Starting this off myself, there was one fella at my current job who bought vodka at a liquor store during his lunch break, poured heaps of it into his soda from a fast food joint, and wound up getting fired when they noticed him getting drunk as hell.

That was before I started working here, but coincidentally I met him at my other job!

Anybody knows that one waterfall attraction in the Southeast US? The one that advertises bloody everywhere? Waterfall is pumped during the dry seasons, otherwise there'd be nothing to see. Lots of the formations are fake, and the Cactus and Candle formation was either moved from a different spot in the cave, or is from a different cave in New Mexico. Management doesn't want people to know that, but fuck 'em.
