  • waterfall displays

    Finally someone agrees with me. I swear it felt like I was the only sane person around. The curved edges made no sense design, use, or otherwise.

    I managed to mostly skip that BS by going with phones that didn’t use it, but I still had the occasional misstep whenever using someone else’s phone to check out their photo or whatever.

    Frankly, I’m happy to see it become less mainstream.






  • I had to take prescription antibiotics+dieuretics for two months after an evening got too exciting. Taking them without food had some pretty nasty effects on my stomach, but I had to take the pills more often than I usually eat.

    Also, those stomach problems didn’t really stop afterwards either. Luckily, my symptoms were relatively mild compared to everyone else in this thread.

    For the mild stuff, yogurt also works really well. It can’t be the shitty yoplait, it has to be actual yogurt. I buy the little cup versions and have one most every breakfast, and the symptoms usually don’t follow me even when I skip them now either.

    I’ve found that I can drink one coffee, consequence free, so long as I have a yogurt to go with it.



  • That’s not how hard drives work, and doesn’t take into account that OP might want to download more than one thing at a time.

    Hard drives are fastest when they are moving large single files. SSDs are way better than hard drives at lots of small random reads/writes.Setting qbittorrent up so that all the random writes inherent to downloading a torrent go to a small ssd, and then moving that file over to the big hard drive with a single long writer operation is how you make both devices perform to their best.
