Just for the fun of it, I tried to play WoW classic on my late-2012 mac mini and it ran like a toaster oven, but it worked just fine. Pretty fun. After putting the SSD in it, of course.

I built my own gaming pc back in Nov 2010 with an i7-970 24g ram. While I have upgraded the GPU twice and upgraded to larger SSD's as prices have come down, I am still using the same machine for gaming. Not that what I am doing is ve

Interesting question. I imagine someone has already thought of this from a tax point of view. Maybe some % of their net worth divided by their age (working age?) - say if they have 100 million dollars and are 60. 60-18 = 42. We would fi

I can see an argument that poor folks have less free time - if someone worked a couple part time jobs, has kids or other family that rely on them, several hours picking up litter is a pretty big deal. Vs my 9-5 M-F job, no dependants, etc.

Do you think that a system of public service / community service requirements instead of fines would be better for common offenses? Without any real research I have often thought that instead of fines for parking violations, noise comp

I can relate. My compromise is to only take my morning dose on the weekends(most of the time). Do things and sort of wander off into the evening. The timing, dose, rhythm of your meds may differ, of course. Mine is not the extended relea

I keep trying to develop the habit of having wealthy parents but they keep being poor. Also, those articles about getting rich keep telling me to utilize my assets to earn additional income but that is illegal in my state. Please send help.

Hades is fantastic. Fun game and great music. FYI the soundtrack is available on Spotify or for sale. (I have no affiliation with the Hades folks, i just like what they do) I also really enjoy The Binding of Isaac AB+. Item interaction i

A lot of locals and dog walkers mostly. Always see them go by twice. Once up once back. From time to time I see what look like long haul bikers - proper gear and a pack. Couple times a month I’ll see em in the summer. I am near the dead en
