I don’t think I’d try to carry my 55" OLED by myself. I recall it being particularly unwieldy when we were installing it.

Thanks for your insight, fartsparkles.

Wait until you learn about cooking at home.

There was a recall on, I think, Chevy headlights. The LEDs were too bright, unfortunately recalls are at the will of the owner.

My electric toothbrush does 30 seconds per quadrant, 2 minutes total. I’m 38 have zero cavities and my teeth are fine. I only brush once a day.

I really enjoyed For All Mankind.

I’ve never heard of such a thing, on any computer. Though HP would be that shitty. Sounds like something fishy with your UEFI, you ever update your bios?

I used to do this like 30 times a day sometimes (HP, Dell, Lenovo, Asus), never had an issue with boot menus. The ONLY problem I’ve ever encountered was an external boot triggering bit locker, and locking me out.

What you’ve described is a hell I’ve never experienced, but def does not sound like standard operating procedure.

Sorry I was so late to the game. I used to work computer repair, always had a Linux stick to boot into, and changed it up every couple of weeks.

Always something fresh, it was fun seeing all the different distros. You can also make a Linux USB stick with persistent storage and install apps and save settings. In my experience those tend to shit the bed after a few weeks.

Another option that’s one step above a USB stick, is an m.2 enclosure. I had those with dual boot, windows and Ubuntu. I could plug that into anyone’s computer, boot the external drive and rule out hardware problems with ease.

The m.2 enclosures are almost indistinguishable from an internal drive, made it so I could boot into my own setup on any machine.

I would recommend reinstalling windows, because the activation key is still on the mobo, and you might as well use it. Then you can fuck around with dual boot, and try all sorts of Linux distros.

You can even put them on a USB stick and side load, without installing anything at all. This is great for testing, until you find one you like and pull the trigger on a dual boot setup.

How the fuck could they not even give it a new name?! One of my favorites as well.

I used to pull the product key stickers off parts we bought at my old job. Laptop bottom cover, with free windows 7 key. Every computer in my house is running Windows 11 pro, activated with a Windows 7 key, that was otherwise just going to get thrown away.

It’s Ron being an insensitive prick, that’s the joke.

We exclusively repaired for schools, kids puke for like… no reason.

Yeah we had to institute a throw it straight into the trash policy because of pukey Chromebooks.

Edge’s baked in coupon code finder is incredible.

I saw this happening in real life one time, on the back of a Dodge Neon. Best part is they were in the parking lot of a Planned Parenthood. We cheered them on, then went about our business.

Canned pumpkin is really good to give your dog if they have constipation or diarrhea.

But the trend will die out, with any luck.
