  • My newborn is getting all their vax in 2 weeks, had to do an explanation for PTO so I’d be there for them. The first thing after I sent the request to my boss was, “have you looked into all the vaccines and how they affect them”. I just don’t understand why these proven vaccines are always in question




  • I think the reason for consoles was, you pay X dollars (normally the same price as a decent video card), and you are guaranteed that any games that come out with it works. All you have to do is plug it up to a TV with HDMI and boom, working video game box with smart capabilities. It is/was a good idea, but I’m guessing MS is looking back at their Xbox One always online days and say you can hook up this $100 cloud base console and stream your games (that you pay a subscription for) with little to no degradation. Honestly they could go so far as offering it alongside select or premium TV brands, they are already doing that with LGs. The next battle will be game ownership, Ubisoft has already started that battle. Looking bleak, may be pulling out the old pirate hat












  • I’ve had my Series X since the first year on its side in my basement (nearish to woods). Nearing completion Starfield it started freezing badly. I followed TronicsFix walkthrough for cleaning which resolved it. https://youtu.be/dKJ2ATvKKAs?si=az954-g_NrhiaC_e

    I’m guessing maybe the smoke might be clogging it, but depending maybe look at redoing the thermal paste. I didn’t do that for mine when I cleaned, but maybe (normally thermal paste is good for a long while).

    If you go with the cleaning, definitely get some Dust off. Hope you get it working, maybe put it on its side and further away from the wood stove if possible and on a solid surface


  • Definitely will be voting Democrat next year, I switched from Independent to Democrat because of Trump during the last election. I’m hoping the Dems will win, but I’m not sure. Gut feeling is saying Trump will win and the US will be another shit show for the next 4 years (possibly much longer depending on how Republicans deal with “their democracy”)
