The most popular car sold in 1990 was the Honda accord, which cost around 12,000 brand new. It is totally fair to say that it cost at least $75, maybe even $100.

I have to keep my roller in my bag. If I use it too much my hands start to hurt. Growing up, I used to have a flash drive I spun on a lanyard, and my most recent obsession has been this thing. It makes the most lovely clicky noise when I want, and is dead silent when I don't want.

It was a whimsical exaggeration.

... Taken to it's logical conclusion and combined with snarky, but mildly helpful, advice.

As is tradition.

Family guy. It should be family guy in the bottom right.

I've seen all of them. The coma arc should have ended up with brain death. He got hallucinations about dying before he recovered just fine instead.

Well, he can't die or get permanent brain damage, but everything else is certainly on the table.

No, it's held pretty consistently to what made it popular. They even got better with regards to representation too. Not sure why it's there on the bottom right, hut I can't really think of a good alternative either.

I have a whole house and still resort to these tactics. People just don't design furniture for that inbetween status that clothes get.

That's for the kickstarter version. This is basically a bespoke handcrafted chair by a company / team of less than 20 people. It's run by Simone Giertz (pronounced yetch, hence the store name), and it's an imminently reasonable price for an original design chair.

For reference, this is the type of thing it's competing with; https://www.dwr.com/outdoor-lounge-chairs-ottomans/magis-spun-chair/9540.html

For when you're so deep into this process that you want to make it a part of your house. https://yetch.studio/products/laundry-chair

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Hey y'all.

I've been running a eBay special server with a pair of Xeon E5-2687W v2 and 64gb of cheap RAM. It's been working pretty great (other than a little bit of instability that randomly went away after a while, but I expect to come back at some point). I've had this setup for a couple years now, and have been eyeballing a couple different upgrade paths.

The reason I want to switch is that the eBay special motherboard does not have enough pci-e slots for what I'm planning in the near future.

The reason I want to upgrade is that I like having nice server hardware.

So I have been looking at alternatives. Is anyone else amazed at how cheap a CPU is, but how expensive a socket SP3 motherboard is? The cheapest sp3 board I've found is more than 500$, used. The cpus which will outperform my setup in every metric cost less than 200$.

This had me looking at new/used gaming hardware instead, which is cheaper, but misses out on ecc and also has a more limited amount of pci-e slots as well, (which is the primary motivation for changing my setup).

I'm trying to find a 16core/32 thread setup with the best single core performance available in that class. My current setup is 8core/16thread x2, and i'd like to avoid 'downgrading' to fewer cores. But the things I run usually run do better with more single thread performance than multi thread performance.

I found the epyc 7371, and the ryzen 5950x which meet my core requirements, but both have downsides I'm trying to mitigate. (Mobo price and ECC ram, respectively)

Do y'all have any alternative options I might've missed?
