Ye definitely hit or miss, they've been excellent for me. I got the 970 EVO last year or the year before and it's been rock solid, my RAM is also Samsung chips albeit B die so higher bin which probably explains why I've never had a single issue with them in 4 odd years.

Samsung, bit more pricey but both my ssd and ram are both Samsung chips and I haven't had a single problem with either.

E. Seems that further down the thread someone is saying Samsung is having issues too, which is dissapointing as I've always trusted Samsung.

If you have the system always running most of the cartage back to the top could be handled by the siphoning effect, like draining a washing machine or siphoning patrol.

You'd need energy to get it started but after that it should keep siphoning as long as there's liquid to siphon.

Ancient Minoan would be the place, chilling on the sunny island of Crete in the reasonably calm Mediterranean sea with abundances of food and water as well as trade goods from all over the Mediterranean. And they weren't crazed militarists like most of the other Greek tribes, so don't have to worry too much about war either.

Or white phosphorus! Wait, wait... how about the inquisition? Or the rape of south america or the roman catholic church...

Damn, why does everybody leave?

See and this is how I know it's all bullshit, what man in his mid to late thirties still has twelve friends? I've never even had twelve friends at the same time before.

Same with Te Reo in NZ, it's kind of standardized now but when I was a kid living in the BoP I learnt a lot of Maori but when we moved to the south island the dialect was quite different so I lost a lot through atrophy.

I'd recommend Long Dark and Subnautica, they've both got crafting but it's part of the survival/exploration loop and they've both got a bunch of mods (on PC) that are really well done.

corporations being into every piece of the pie: a logical extension of the trend to privatization or "wanting government to be run like a business" is the replacement of nation-states by corporations or zaibatsu-like alliances of multiple corporations

I personally think corporations are going to kill each other off (most likely culminating in a global corpo-war where the last two duke it out) with only one surviving and becoming something akin to the catholic church in the medieval period, plunging the world into a new dark age.

It's the profit imperative biting them in the ass, you can't have exponential growth in a finite system so expect these megacorps to get more and more desperate (and draconian) as the bottom of the barrel draws ever nearer.

Jerboa also matches the font size of everything else in my UI better

This has been my biggest annoyance in all the apps I've tried so far, I'm using thunder at the moment and it's extra large font is juuust big enough, but still way too small to be called extra large.

Quite a few of the others don't even have that though, liftoff was terrible for it with no option to change it and Jerboa is easily the best in this regard but with it scaled up to match my UI it's a too much scrolling and weird formatting.

Can't wait for Boost, it was my reddit go to for years simply because of all it's toggles, I could customize pretty much every part of the UI. Which is probably why it's taking a while to come out, there was quite a bit more to it than pretty much any other of the alternatives.

You, sir, are worse than Hitler.
