I upgraded to a 5700X3D for €200 two years ago
Same here (except mine was about $150 for a used? one from Aliexpress).
I’m slightly tempted by FOMO for the 5800X3D too, but realistically it’s a single-digit-percentage difference and is definitely not worth it.


If you want to stay with the blink engine,
Vivaldi or Brave.you’re part of the problem, so don’t.
FTFY.
Every Blink-based browser contributes to Google’s harmful hegemony over web standards.
Just use any GUI text editor!

The main trouble is that pole is broken off at essentially ground level, so I’m not sure I’d be able to get a good enough grip on it. I’ll probably have to still partially dig it to expose some of the concrete, to wrap a chain or strap around.
When you figure it out, send me a copy so I can use it as a copypasta too.
I have one of those! It hadn’t even crossed my mind to use it (probably because my attempt to get the concrete out of my yard was years before I bought it, but still…)
I might try that tomorrow. Or even if I don’t do that specific thing, it at least inspires me to think creatively in terms of mechanical advantage.


We all understand that the nonpartisan rank-and-file follow the cues of the partisan political appointees at the top. I’m not sure why you’re trying to downplay the fact that this erosion in behavior and work ethic is a direct result of the party in charge.


Why would anyone not take a ship with an all-Caitian crew seriously? That’s speciesist.
My house had a clothesline in the backyard at one point, but by the time I bought it all that was left were a couple of rusted, broken-off pole bottoms embedded in surprisingly deep concrete. I managed to dig one up, but the other is still a tripping hazard in my lawn. 😕


Apropos of nothing, did you know that, while the president himself gets secret service protection, many of the cronies he relies on to do his bidding do not? Just a funny observation.
I also have one like that somewhere.


Why does pinko commie Kier Starmer hate property rights?


Its an absolutely awful way of tackling the problem of sexting and cross sharing of nudes.
Almost as if that’s just an excuse and not the actual goal. 🤔

That’s “Airstrip One” to you, prole!


I found my pair* of Brother color laser MFPs on Craigslist, being listed by a small business that was getting rid of them. I think you’ll have a lot better luck finding them via some method like that than by checking thrift shops.
That said, they are pretty giant, being designed for small/medium office use. However, I’m not sure there even is such a thing as a “small” color laser, since they inherently have to contain four sets of rollers instead of just one.
(* if you find somebody selling more than one of the same model, definitely get two so you have one for spare parts.)


the larger gauge wires were to carry more current required by the old halogen bulb and are unnecessarily large for an LED light
To be fair, just because the controlling factor is mechanical strength rather than current capacity doesn’t mean the need for heavier gauge wire isn’t legitimate.
If you’re gonna say that, you might as well just count the entirety of Interstella 5555.
