I have a few Kingston DTEG2. They all perform like the Crucial and the Samsung.

I’ve tried many SanDisk since that’s all they sell in the brick and mortar stores near me and they’re all trash.

The grind is a state of mind in my opinion. Are you playing the game because you enjoy it, or just so you can say you have everything and completed all aspects of the game? For me, thinking the game as a grind is only true for the latter.

I have everything in GTA online, but I’ve also got about ~4000 hours on it. There are only a few in game assets that add an improvement to the gameplay; everything else is meaningless.

The bit they said about being instantly killed and hunted wasn’t true even before the Battleye update.

There are still modders on the game after the Battleye update but there is significantly fewer.

Sure you get ass holes in game, but you get ass holes in everything in life.

I’ve only had that once or twice.

I currently have ~4000 hours on the game. Only 100-200 of them is in story mode.

There is now Battleye, which has significantly reduced the number of modders, but it requires you to be comfortable with a kernel level anti cheat running on your system.

There are ass holes every where trying to ruin the fun for everything in life.

That’s not true for every public lobby. You can play online by yourself, or just your friends if you don’t want to be in a public lobby. And some modders are quite funny with it.

I’m speaking from a place where I currently have ~4000 hours on the game. Only 100-200 of them is in story mode.

Why do you believe online is unplayable?

It’s because he called the event ‘We, Robot’. So it’s fairly obvious that he wants to draw parallels between Tesla’s humanoids and the robots within the movie.

I was thinking about disabling explorer from running or at least kill it at boot up. And then using an alternative file explorer and task bar.

Linux doesn’t have the breadth of programs available that Windows does. Programs developed for Windows are sometimes better than their FOSS equivalents. Eg. I pay for Office, partially so my parents can use it and partially because it’s just a better set of programs than any of the FOSS equivalents. I generally only find the Linux programs are better when it comes to computer management and maintenance.

So I run Linux for servers and Windows for PCs.

What’s an alternative to explorer?

Unfortunately, just switch to Linux is not an option.

You clearly haven’t looked at either article. Parasocial relationships are weird.

I guess you’re right because I didn’t properly look at the hackaday article.

Alec has paraphrased the Tedium article. All of the talking points of Alec’s video is in the article.

The hackaday article just summarised the 16 minute video into 4 short paragraphs and linked to Alec’s video.

Edit: I like interactions like this (the comment thread since my first comment) because it highlights how easy it is for people to make judgements based on a lack of knowledge. It reminds me to try to not make assumptions.

Yes. I didn’t misspeak.

And Alec’s video is mostly a freeboot off someone’s article.

So this is a full on article and YouTube circle jerk.

Same SSDs are about 40% more expensive today than they were this time last year.

Comparing a person computer to another personal computer

I agree. I think what you describe is also seen in sponsor block.

People mark story telling videos mostly as filler content, so a beautiful 10 minute video is chopped down to only a minute or two and most of what makes the video great is removed.

Live music sets where people segment out the intro and outro to songs, so tracks are mashed together for a non-stop music experience, which I think misses the mark with live music.

I also find a lot of sponsor segments are done quite badly like the person who made them doesn’t care or is in a rush. Eg. Today I came a sponsor segment that started 11 seconds too early. I only recognised it because it kicked in half way through a sentence.

Don’t get me wrong, I still use the extension; I’ve just disabled most of the auto actions.

Many moons ago I tried Darrow for a day and got the same feeling as what your described. I decided the original video titles are superior and disabled the extension.

I was just curious about why 4 million plays is ~$20 and 1 million plays is less than a dollar.

Do you pay them any money to have the songs on the platforms?

If not, I wonder if they charge you a fee but only deduct their fee from your earnings. So if you don’t get plays then they don’t ask for money. And the break even point is at around 1 million plays. Just a theory of course; I’m sure it’s all stated in the fine print.
