    Remember when Gorbachev said he would bury us?

    Well he's dead, I'm alive and my fear of Russia using nukes is non existent after hearing them drone on about it for literal decades.

    At a federal building and the supervisor was up front chatting with a customer. The waiting room is small so I could hear everything they said. She started by talking about how Biden was a pedo then how all the vaccines have some chemical in it like bleach I can't remember. She went on with a dozen conspiracy theories, speaking as if they were the truth and haven't been debunked a million times already.

    Author of that article produced a PC for about $867 iirc that rivaled the pro.

    The pro doesn't include a stand $30 or a disk drive $60. A drive for the PC is under $20. This is all USD.

    If you want to play online that's another $120 per year for PlayStation.

    When you start adding up all the little expenses and then factor in that a PC can do 100 things a console can't, it's going to be a better investment in the short and long run to get a PC over a PS5 Pro

    Also no source for this because you can take a calculator and figure it out yourself

    I bought a can opener years back that doesn't cut the can, instead it separates the lid from the can with no sharp edges. It's dumb but I love it.

  • FB Marketplace Scam. There's a second where they get your phone number and send you a "confirmation" link which apparently will confirm you are changing an account over to them. Not sure what account, as my phone provider auto blocks these scam links. This one is pretty stupid. Instead of venmo'ing the cash to their "relative" who is coming to my place to pick up the item. They expect me to accept the Venmo on my end, then wait 1-3 business days before actually being able to get the cash for the product. At which point there is no cash. They continually try the scam even when I say it's cash only. Also if you inspect these profiles they are generally one image and zero information. These are all from fake accounts which they delete /get banned periodically.
