Make sure to use distilled water so you don't hurt the components!

Many people seem to ignore the fact that its a 3.7l case :D I love small PC's. My PC case is 20l with a 4070. I could go down to maybe 15l if I wanted but that would be pushing it. This thing is small af!
You can always build a PC yourself. You wont be able to get it this small with the same performance.
Not gonna buy one, but I just think its neat!

Why would I throw it away, when I can give it to someone who needs it more, or sell it? Using it as a NAS will use up more power than just buying a mini PC and using that. I calculated the costs and the energy savings would pay for one in two years. My NUC uses 6-7W idle.
I'd use an old PC as a NAS but turned it on only on demand, when it was needed. Which does hurt its convenience factor a little.
Note: talking about desktops.

Back in my day, we had RELOADED, Razor1911, DEViANCE! Haven't pirated games in forever though, I mostly buy "indies" today and steam + gog facilitate that nicely.

This isn't an introvert thing though. I'm the champion of introversion and can make it through a phone call no problem. Don't ask me to call someone I don't know though. But my point is, this is some form of anxiety. It may be more prevalent in introverts, that's probably why we can bond over it. But its not an introvert thing to be scared of phone calls, its something else.

Texting someone? This is the first time you're doing it. No text history ever.
Doing something that requires a thing? That thing is always new and fresh and has never been used because its a fucking prop.
Just lots of unrealistic things benign things in movies I never noticed when I was younger. Now it just pisses me off for some reason.

Or the second impeachment, if not the first one...

  1. Covered on steam with game bans, which can be handed by server admins
  2. Would be nice to see ngl. Whats not humanly possible should result in a game ban.
  3. Covered on steam by VAC, automated system checking for cheat signatures in user memory space
  4. Hard to do and not realistically feasible for the majority of people, screen capture with per pixel analysis tools would still work but thats not that big of an issue
  5. VAC and game bans also ban you from community features including trading your inventory, afaik you phone number and all accounts associated with it are banned

I can laugh at deadpan, satire, parody, dark, puns, self deprecating humor but find it hard to laugh at cringe comedy. I generally get when something is supposed to be funny, but it can be harder with some like satire.
I can't tell whats considered "good" though.

Its used in a lot of places. I'd say its about as essential as FTP, maybe a bit less. Take of that as you will.
I'm thinking of other problems BT could help solve, but I can't think of any. Maybe decentralized syncing of data across a global CDN network?
Would be great if we could utilize it for video sharing since bandwidth is always a problem there, but its not really designed for it. Though I think there's a lot of things we could solve with p2p, bittorrent may not be the correct protocol to use. A decentralized p2p marketplace was mentioned a few years back, but I can't recall any detail or even name now...
