    I found it a lot more peaceful once I started filtering out certain word combinations that indicate a ragebait bullshit headline. I considered just filtering out “trump”, but I want actual news to come through, so here’s the list:

    Trump wants
    Trump says
    Trump will
    Trump hints
    Trump demands
    Trump indicates
    Trump claims
    Trump considering
    Trump tells

    …and repeat the list for Musk and Vance. Those verbs target the nothingburger headlines only meant to attract clicks. Basically, we learned 9 years ago that he says loads of stupid shit that doesn’t deserve a headline. I might be interested if he signs something.




  • Or walking. I’ve been to a few US cities, and the common denominator for all of them is that walking anywhere isn’t really an option. Sure, you can’t always walk A to B in most cities, but at least European cities have public transit to cut down on the distance, necessitating only two short walks to and from a transit station.

    Observation: Saudi Arabia is heading down a Houstonian path. There was one pedestrian bridge near me, and outside of that one, getting anywhere involved strategic jaywalking to cross freeways. At least they seem to have a decent bus network, though.




  • Could you provide a picture? Something sounds off, like you’re conflating the CPU with something else, or you’ve missed a step such as opening the CPU “cage”.

    AM5 socket is similar to many other sockets, and it basically goes like this:

    1. Remove heatsink
    2. Open the socket with the small lever
    3. Lift open the socket.
    4. Pull the CPU out straight

    Note that if there’s an excessive amount of coolant paste that has dried up, some components might seem stuck.


  • Selling IP can go both ways. It could be picked up by someone wanting to do better, or it could be picked up by someone just after a quick buck by doing the bare minimum.

    And then there’s Rocketwerkz - They originally bid to develop Kerbal Space Program 2 for Take2, but they lost the bid because the winners showed up fancy concept art while rocketwerkz focused on a solid technical foundation. And then Take2 severely botched KSP2 and the franchise is now considered dead. Rocketwerkz is now building something relevamt from scratch, with their own IP, and it looks really promising. I hope this happens to a lot more AAA titles and IP holders.
