  • They still think that YouTube and Facebook are representative of the average person. They don’t understand how incredible curated those feeds are. I think that’s where some of the “silent majority” mythos comes from. Everything they see is people agreeing with them, therefore it’s impossible that Joe Biden got more votes in 2020.

    There’s no risk for a factory condition unit. This rumor started after people with units that had been dissasembled and reassembled had issues with vertical orientation. It turned out that it’s very easy to mess up the seals that keep the liquid metal thermal interface in place. So units that had been previously taken apart had liquid metal slowly leak, causing overheating and/or shorting.

    If you haven’t taken the cooler off the mainboard, using the vertical stand is just fine. I haven’t seen any evidence of factory assembled units suffering leaking. It does imply that user servicing of ps5’s is a bit risky, and you might need to be wary of used units where you don’t necessarily know the service history.

    To avoid unnecessary confusion, taking the covers off to add an m.2 ssd does not add any risk.






  • Most of my digital purchases were because there were discounts on digital that were not offered for physical

    I’m going to venture a guess that might be why nintendo swith has a substantially larger physical percentage than the other platforms. Both forms are always at price parity since nintendo doesn’t do discounts.

    I couldn’t make out if these percentages are by count of copies, or by dollars. Every time I grab a “free” playstation plus title, does that count toward the digital sales figure? Maybe xbox and playstation are heavily padding their digital sales figures by including “purchases” for licenses included in their respective subscription services?

    Heating them together is usually fine in my experience, but storing them separately is a must. The pasta robs moisture form everything else, getting mushy and leaving the sauce dry.

    If you really want one container to bring leftovers to work, put the sauce on the bottom add a layer of cheese, then put the pasta on top. Don’t mix everything until it is warm. You can get surprisingly ok results this way.
