Ahh fuck!!!

Been pretty happy with my month old Radeon RX 7800XT. 16GB VRAM, holds its own in Starfield and Cyberpunk (ooh the raytracing…), and haven’t had any issues with it.

Looks to be around £550 there.

While it can be a little flaky depending upon your individual setup, OpenRGB has been great for my rig. I have a simple mobo/RAM/GPU lighting using 3 different bits of individual software, and OpenRGB is very capable at taking their place. Presets make it even easier to set up your favorite styles. Highly recommend. Oh, and it’s free.

Fantastic, you’re hired!

So I never really dabbled in DDG. I did for a little while, but just like Brave (Eich being a POS, anti-LGBTQ, questionable crypto BS, etc.), some dirt came up for DDG that steered me away. Although, now doing more digging, and even Startpage has its issues. I really don’t like this hopping round thing.

I just switched from Chrome to Brave, and then shortly after from Brave to Vivaldi. Search engine is now Startpage.com, which while slower than Google, it’s been bringing up decent results. Unfortunately I still use quite a few Google-centric apps, so hopefully I’m able to discover more options as time goes on.

We have four cats. The first two were a bonded pair and we named them after two characters on a show we were watching when they were adopted, Sense8. Wolfgang & Riley. Scarily enough their personalities kinda fit, minus the DJing and rocket launcher.

3rd cat we rescued from the street, and she’s Sweets Petites from tha Streets.

4th cat was named by the lady adopting a litter out, after the Rugrats. So we’ve got Phil.

This is what pisses me off. I work in an office that gets daily CFA products for staff to purchase internally. I catch people who buy it and their response is “because it was already purchased by the facility to be then bought by us, it’s not bad.”, or something to that extent. Worst part is we just passed a $55k budget on it for next year :(

DEI Committee be damned. Maybe I’ll start telling them about the Cathy’s funding to this and it’ll change tune.
