Straight up, I'm planning to wait for reviews and some patches to roll out.

I've been playing Bethesda games for awhile and every single 3D game made by them has had some serious issues on launch.

And don't forget to use encrypted messenging apps like Signal.

And do your research into which apps, programs, etc have the best encryption.

Yep it's the association for sure

But also a factor (for those that know) is that companies will pay for their ads to run to specific demographics of people based on the data that a advertising platform (Twitter, YouTube, Tinder, Facebook, etc) has gathered to determine specific things about you as a person.

It's the whole concept behind targeted ads. You pay for eyes that will see it and are more likely to purchase your products due to that demographic data. Or at the very least, view your website for traffic that can be used to harvest more data about you so that it can be sold to other companies.

Damn good this week

I'm currently on vacation for the week and turns out basically this whole week is supposed to be over 100F

I work in a hot warehouse going into truck trailers all day that are baking on the sun so I'm digging it

Personally I think it's more related to the current recent climate stuff and the failure of the G20 summit to come to an agreement on the climate crisis.

I'll have to check the stream out later but thank you for the heads-up

Vaush is pretty based even though he can come off pretty rough

It would take quite a bit of energy to effect things on a global scale but it could cause some issues at a very local level.

Depending on price I might go for it

I did spend like $40 on a battery for a 10 year old laptop a few years ago so that I could keep using it for troubleshooting a remote network I setup up awhile ago because it's cheaper than a new laptop.

Personally I'd see if you can find a new compatible battery not necessarily an OEM battery though as being new it's probably going to last awhile.
