TL;DW: Kids get picked at Stamford and given money. It's a thing, and a way for grifters to get early access to people who are likely to have "access" in the future.

It is, if you are starting from scratch. They also say "money makes money", which is also true. We need a nepobaby saying.

Death by self snu snu!

When I wore heels that tall, they were much wider and came with nice solid goth boots and more ankle support than a plaster cast. And it was still terrible.

Anyone here planning on getting one?

I might get a 2tb. If I don't game on it, I might swap the Linux version and use it for work. We have standardized in fully decked out System76 Meerkats with Proxmox VE serving jump hosts to manage different clients, so I can use it for that, or I can leverage the GPU and use it for datadump and log analysis. The point is, that it wouldn't be money wasted. Ideally, I'd like to play games on it though.

EDIT: Looking at the Gamer's Nexus review they state upfront that performance is limited, so I honestly don't see why I should get this over a Meerkat.

EDIT 2: Nevermind. The Meerkat has almost doubled in price and is Intel only now. So the Steam Machine is back on the menu.

I use a sweat band on my right wrist when playing guitar. It keeps my braclet from hitting the strings.

It's actually shocking that it hasn't even been nominated.. The complexity and extremes of some of the shows is brain melting.

The ban length seems a bit excessive if it was your first offense. You are clearly in the wrong, but you should be able to appeal the ban length. What was the mod team's response when you did?

You violated a rule. It doesn't matter how popular the post is if it is in violation of a very clearly stated rule.

That's why I am a strong proponent of drummer turban hats.

I had the opportunity some "time" ago and I chose to send our entire universe into a black hole. Now we are all stuck here, infinitely reliving the same existences and timelines. My bad.

Puerto Ricans, the unsung first line of defense against the horrors of the Bermuda Triangle.

You have your hand sliced off by a cyborg cosmic horror with a giant lazer sword and let me know if you didn't piss and shit yourself.

Sweat catcher. Look at photos of drummers in the 70's and 80's and you'll see a lot of head bands. They look dorky so now they wear beanies. Caps don't absorb much.

I think the real lesson of that tale is that "the master" was an ungrateful and sadistic ¢unt.

Good for you. I think the heels are working for you but you should be careful when you roll your ankle like that.

...shit, your insurance covers that?

No.

overdiagnosis and overtreatment risks still apply

I'm keeping an eye for specific things but the first one I had diacovered a problem l knew nothing about. A more focused exam confirmed it, so the scans have already paid off.
