Try it. We’ve done it before, and it often yields a bit more than the average we’ve seen. Down in south Texas

A Roth 401k or Roth IRA is much better than a regular 401k
I was on a trip to Tyler, and AC wasn’t the best. My dad decided to use one of those kits to recharge, and it ended up killing my compressor. So I went ahead and got the gauges since they didn’t have them where I lived (neither oreilly nor auto zone)
I’m not finding any compressors online that state whether they’re prefilled or not. One kit includes PAG oil (so I assume it’s not prefilled). How would I go about adding any if I do need to? I assume it’s through the yellow line just before I put my coolant?
I played a casual game and got kicked. If it was ranked, I would understand, but it was casual!
60°F will be fine?
Beowulf@unilem.orgto Memes@lemmy.ml•It's really just 1 person but my god he needs to stop whining about Windows101·2 years agoI like the memes, but that’s it. I use Linux, sure, but I also have to use Windows for a few programs because WINE doesn’t work with said programs, and the alternatives aren’t the best
With that being said, would I prefer Linux to be mainstream? Yes. Will it ever be? Probably not. Too many people just want something that works out of the box and don’t want to spend hours fixing some obscure bug.
I am a nerd. Therefore, I am okay spending time working on my machine and making sure everything runs well. I have previously looked at an OS that doesn’t seem to work or is starting to have issues and completely swap to a different distro using a base I have used and know will work 100% of the time
Beowulf@unilem.orgto Technology@lemmy.world•A new smartphone again? Rethink unhealthy culture of frequent upgradesEnglish2·2 years agoSamsung S21 Ultra that I got in September of 2021
I’ll probably go another year before upgrading, depending on how much it makes sense financially.
Might be able to find a flatpak and use flatseal to restrict it as much as possible

Make sure to install (or reinstall) Java8 and make sure it’s selected in the prism launcher for use under v1.8.9 specifically. That way, you can continue to play using Java17 on recent versions a bit simpler than having to constantly swap Java versions
Beowulf@unilem.orgto Memes@lemmy.ml•It’s all a scam, don’t even try to tell me it’s useful3·2 years agoYeah, I knew it wouldn’t be cost effective since my old rig had an AMD RX580 8gb, but if I could play games and already have a space heater, I may as well mine crypto to heat up the whole house. Nowadays I’m just using Folding@Home during the winter
Beowulf@unilem.orgto Memes@lemmy.ml•It’s all a scam, don’t even try to tell me it’s useful123·2 years agoI can understand monero since you can actually use it as a currency on some certain websites, but that’s basically it. I do not care about crypto anymore because of the almost toxic culture it can brew.
Back when reddit was a thing, I asked how to even start with crypto (what type of wallet, general set up general use etc) and just didn’t even talk about the actual mining (I remember saying something around the lines of “I’m looking to mine because it’s supposed to get extra cold this winter, I do not care about actually getting any crypto” and those dense mfers kept linking a website that calculates how much I would make with the cost of electricity and the efficiently of it all… like… I didn’t even care about making anything, I just didn’t want it going into the ether)
Anyways that’s my rant

Beowulf@unilem.orgto Atheist Memes@lemmy.world•Do this if a church tells you how to vote7·2 years agoThe worst a priest said, around where I live at least, is that “you should vote within your beliefs as a catholic. Primary issue is abortion, I’m not telling you how to vote but I am asking that you do your research and try to vote within the beliefs of the church”
Other than that, politics was NEVER talked about

Here in Texas, we use wind and solar a lot. That’s why in 2021 when it froze, we had zero power. The wind turbines were seized from the freeze and snow covered the solar panels. We had dropped our coal production until we had to suddenly go to 100% utilization.
And with it being texas and hardly snowing, we don’t have infrastructure in place for the roads. There’s no snow plows, road salt, tire chains, etc…
It will slow when nuclear is the main energy source, especially in the United States (its currently ~47%)
Nuclear can also get recycled, and for the average American, the actual waste that can no longer be recycled is about a soda can (standard 12 ounce can)
Imo, the US needs to work toward nuclear usage being 90-95% instead of using coal. There’s still a need for natural gas but it can be minimized
It’s supposed to mimic how you scroll on your phone. Fine for TouchPads (depending on when you learned to use it(i.e., if you learned to use a touch pad after learning to use a smart phone then it would make, slightly, more sense)), abhorrent for mice.
Knowing Trump, it would sound a lot like “Are you sure you want to threaten me with NOT building my glorious Trump tower? We have nukes, you know. They can level your entire country. Just let me build my tower”
