anyway- turns out the terabyte hard drive i've pulled to test's getting read errors. plus a read speed half-life (coining this term) of 15 seconds, where it slowly drops from like 110mb/s at the beginning to under 55mb/s in that time. shame, coulda sold for a billion trillion dollars.

dont even get me started on the early RX GPUs. you could undervolt them and get MORE performance for FREE. my old laptop with an A10 APU used to hit over 90 celsius in MINECRAFT. it used to throttle playing HALF LIFE 2 ON LOW SETTINGS. and that's with throwing alllll kinds of cooling on it that...

watched Project Hail Mary yesterday. really good as far as pop cinema goes

one reason i'm not too keen on checking out The Odyssey right now is its runtime. i wholly believe 2.5h should be like the upper limit for a film past which it's just needless stretching

i've been trying to get back into the flow of filmwatching lately, finally checked out One Battle After Another and Sinners a while ago and needless to say, the latter was so so much better than the former. OBAA's writing just felt needlessly racist and was so tone deaf in its portrayal of...
