There's still a fuck ton of pennies in circulation and on the ground, unless they consider them no longer legal tender we'll have plenty.

However, if we end up following how Brazil does it, in my experience, it depends on the person/vendor and the amount. If you buy something that's like R$3,99 you'll usually get give them R$4 and that's it. I've also had it where I'll pay for something that's say R$4,89, give them R$5 and get 15 or 25 centavos back. Could also depend on what's in the drawer at that time.

Corporations will 100% pocket the difference at first, but once it becomes a normal thing to do the rounding I'll wager it'll fall to the Brazilian method, especially with local businesses or vendors.

Dug through my meme archives for this one, here's what it's referencing

I don't think we should continue burning any fossil fuels but that's not what I was talking about. I was making a personal testimony on why I dislike swamp coolers.

Swamp coolers suck, they don't work on humid days, they make any paper in your house damp and damage books, the pads will get moldy and you'll be breathing in that mold blowing directly into your house along with its smell and to even get any use out of them they have to be moving a ton of air so your whole house is a wind tunnel when it's on. My first summer living in NM we had one, my dad pulled it and installed a real air conditioner shortly after.

2/10 wouldn't recommend

Yeah it pretty much is, they fired Frank right before shooting season 2, they demanded 13 episodes a season up from 6, as well as budget cuts out the ass. YMS has a short series about the differences between 1 and 2 if you're interested.

The Walking Dead. I started because it was popular when it came out, plus Frank Darabont directing. Season 1 was good, then AMC fired him. Seasons 2 and 3 dragged so I stopped after 3. Fast forward to the end of the series and my fiance wanted to watch the episodes as they came out. My first reaction was "why the fuck are there Stormtroopers in this zombie show?"

Yeah I enjoyed GeoGuessr and wishlisted it in Steam when it was announced. Got an email from Steam saying it was available and opened the store page to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews.

I've played OpenGuessr and it's pretty close to the same experience, I never do versus or anything, just a casual player. I did notice it tended to put me in the same countries quite often, like 8 instances of Brazil and 3 in the Philippines in 20 rounds, but still enjoyable.

Rebirth Island is opening irl boys, where we dropping?

Now that I have more experience with Linux yeah I've gained some skills, still just scratching the surface though. TrueNAS just worked for me, maybe just due to my simple use case as a Plex server/ light network storage.

KDE Plasma has been great for me since it (as well as Cinnamon on my Mint system) are close to the Windows ecosystem I've been used to for decades, so it makes sense for me. Having KDE Connect out of the box helps move ROMs from my desktop to my Steam Deck without having a dingle dongle adapter for a flashdrive, works kinda like AirDrop in my experience. Pus I like the way it looks out of the box, except for the floating taskbar which I immediately locked to the bottom of the screen.

At some point I'll setup Syncthing and automate that process for keeping game states synced up as well.

Fair, like I said I'm not smart so I was only following a YouTube tutorial on how to install Arch, first time the guy was using Gnome which I didn't like so I had to find another that showed KDE. All those experiments and even the Plex server setup were built alongside YT tutorials and an IT friend who also has a Plex server helping me with upgrades when I needed to add a SAS card for additional drives.

I've honestly just been winging it here lmao

Care to explain? I run TrueNAS because it was the easiest for me to setup at the time. I'm not smart and it was a simple and free solution. Plex because Jellyfin wasn't where it is now, but also because again, I'm not smart and I have family outside my network use the server. Setting up wire guard and all that makes my brain hurt, let alone getting my mother to understand how to connect to Jellyfin.

Already engaged 👈😎👈
