Its on the opposite side of the room, roughly 10-12feet away. Good suggestion however!

Yep, one in the utility room by the furnace, one in the upstairs front door closet beside the kitchen, and one in the garage. Haven’t had to use them for myself personally… but the neighbours came slamming on the door a few times needing one.

IMO every residence should have one handy. Never know what could happen or who might need one. I really should get one thats rated for electrical fires however.

Yeah thats fair haha!

Happens with all vehicle’s. Not everyone that owns a truck has a room temp IQ like the person depicted here.

Id say they are most likely in good health. But anything could happen. Always reccomend having a backup option in place.

Agreed, i mainly mention Crystaldisk because its a quick free tool. Definitely reccomend using multiple avenues of info gathering to determine hardware health.

You can track the health status of most smart enabled ssds. Can use a tool like crystal disk info

Personally i have 2 7 year old ssds going strong without issue. Mainly used for storage and games, so the r/w rates been pretty lower on them.

Ssds do have a total maximum write cycles to nand. Really depends on the use cases over the 5 years.

Twice a day normally. 1 morning, 1 after work if im dirty, sweaty or stinky.

Sweet, thanks chief.

More content around individual games so there feels like more of a community here. Some times its like talking into the void.

Less political respost spam from multiple bots to multiple communities at the same time. Just gets anoying to filter out after a while.

When i started (20 years ago), my parents just rented a set for the first little while to see of i would stick to it, i reccomend going this route.

I also reccomend a full size kit, be it electric or acoustic vs. Just getting a simple drum pad. The feeling of a full sized kit is vastly different in my opinion.

Electric: Can be loud or can be silent to the environment around you. Light weight. Customizable digital options for sound. Can usally find a kit the is of defent quality for a decent price.

Acoustic: no volume nob and no headphone output, so consider your playing environment. Feels different than electric, hitting skins and bare metal just feels better to me in general. Looks sexy AF. Decent kits are not cheap, and cheap bad kits sound like cheap bad kits.

Hi-hat, kick drum, snare, crash and/or ride cymbal, floor tom and 1 or 2x tom-toms would be my reccomendation. Electric you will have a wider selection of sounds, seeing you can usually program them for different usage.

Edit: just wanted to add, a drum pad is still a starting point, so if thats your best option go for it! Hell, even some different sized plastic buckets is a start worth pursuing.

Yea its doable. Really depends on the games anti-cheat. You’d want to check each game.

Battle Eye based anti cheat games like R6S and Tarkov gave me issues last time i tried a similar setup. That was a few years back however, and with valves proton push, much of the compatibility has improved since then.

Yep i can. 30 Male Canada. Grew up in the praries just outside a small town. All we had for fun growing up besides games was old cars and dirtbikes. Currently drive a automatic however.

Careful buddy, you can’t make logical points about windows systems. The Linux gooners on Lemmy are ready to beat their meat aggressively while taking your points out of context. Even if you agree with them overall.

Theres a few:

• yeah, don’t buy PC parts and wow gold with those bitcoins you will mine in 2011…

• watch out for the fallen tree at the bottom of the hill on the bike path, your breaks don’t work very well.

• some older kid will decide to bully you, but dont let it bother you so much. Loser ends up unaliving himself via drunk driving into a wall later on.

• oh also don’t take your ps1 and gamecube collection to EB games for trade in, you only get 3 xbox 360 games out of the deal and will regret it.

Cat starring out window: " LOOK HOOMAN THERES BIRDS!"

Cat runs to back door: “lemme out, lemme out, lemme out”

lets cat outside, car vrooms past 20 seconds later

Scaredy cat gets spooked by car: “Lemme in, lemme in, lemme in”

cat proceeds to explain what i assume is a tall tale of heroics, birds, and loud mechanical beasts he defended the hoomans from

Repeat above a few times a day.

• No shitty P2W mechanic bullshit.
• Full game on release.
• no always online requirement.
• not completely unplayable at launch tripple A title.
• content amount is worth its purchase value.
• accessable or soon to be accessable on majority of gaming platforms.
• community mod support, which drives improvements and long term playability.

And last but highly important:

• Development transparency on what the game is and where its headed.

Big chickens, big cats, big squirrels, big whatever the fuck that thing is. Better kill or capture them using my big sword.
