Yeah, this a common misconception (no pun intended?). The average life expectance was 40 because so many children died during childhood. If you lived to 20, you likely lived til you were 70.

Use beef tallow instead of butter. I personally just trim the excess fat from the steak and render that down then pull out all the solid bits, crank the heat until it smokes, then drop the steak in.
Same here. Including the mucus covered tentacles.
Great stuff. Thanks!
Thanks, yeah I’ll probably pick it up at a big discount to load up on the steam deck and put a couple hours into.
Thanks. That matches up with what I had heard in passing bout it.
Might be worth a couple hours if I’ve got nothing else going on I guess.
Do you need to run the Intel cards with an Intel CPU to get the quick sync benefits? I upgraded my desktop last year and am going to convert my old Ryzen 5600x system to … something. Not sure what yet though. Just working on my options.
Anyone played this? I’ve had it on my steam wishlist for a few years but never got around to it
The real answer?
Data is transmitted in packets. Each packet has a packet header, and a packet payload. The total data transmitted is the header + payload.
If you’re transmitting smaller packet sizes, it means your header is a larger percentage of the total packet size.
Measuring in megabits is the ISP telling you “look, your connection is good for X amount of data. How you choose to use that data is up to you. If you want more of it going to your packet headers instead of your payload, fine.” A bit is a bit is a bit to your ISP.
They decided to keep the name “Indian” because when white people decided to start calling them “native Americans”. They decided that they weren’t going to let white people dictate what their name was a second time.
Yeah, I thought that was so cool when I played it the first time. Gives you some insight into how the neutral parties went about trying to live their lives.
Although I really liked the story in TIE Fighter too with slowly beating back the rebellion while also trying to prevent internal sabotage and spies from stealing the TIE Defender.
X-Wing Alliance is so freaking good
It’s Hydrogen that’s existed since the universe cooled enough for electrons and protons to make atoms. Seconds after the big bang.
Atoms didn’t exist until 380,000 years after the big bang. Before that the universe was too dense for atoms to form and everything existed as a hot dense plasma where no electron could be captured by protons and neutrons. The protons that make up the nucleus of hydrogen did exist, it’s just that everything was too energetic to become an atom yet.
Hail Hydraaaaaaaa!
Must be tough to be a blind person with ansomia and a craving for omelettes.
How often do you update your off-site backups?
Fyi, “happy Christmas” is just the normal phrasing in the UK. “Merry Christmas” didn’t start to spread until A Christmas Carol was published.
Yeah, I used to run win 2000 on my desktop and had some games that I couldn’t play from the win95 era. So I resized my mom’s old windows XP machine and pulled a 2 gig partition out then installed win98 on that. I used the windows disk manager to mark the partition I wanted to boot from as active, so it was completely transparent to my mom when she would need to use the computer, including booting.
If I were going to do a system like this again today, id probably do something similar. An MBR formatted hard drive can have 4 primary partitions. FAT16 had a max partition size of 2gb, but fat32 was introduced in win98 so you could go with whatever partition size you wanted there.
So you could have a 95, 98, ME, and XP installation all on one drive and just switch between them using the drive manager to change the active bootable partition then rebooting.
