I have this recurring theme in my dreams where my grandfather is there. I ask him, "aren't you dead?" And, he says "no, no, the doctors got that all wrong," and he laughs. Then I say "oh yeah, I forgot." And we just keep on talking.
You using an Nvidia GPU? My husband gave me his old one, and it just seemed to give me all kinds of random issues that I never had before on my AMD GPUs. Just a thought.
I will second what someone else said. My husband had all kinds of issues when he reused his old NTFS drive in Linux. He reformated it to ext3 or 4 I think and hasn't had major issues since.
This is why the ideal background movie is any Mystery Science Theater 3000 movie. They are hilarious, but ultimately the movies behind them tend to be boring. You don't usually need to pay attention to the plot to get most of the jokes. So, your attention can weave in and out. They are also usually monotone enough to fall asleep to, which is a bonus.
Cheerwine Zero exists. It is a black cherry flavored soda. Idk if it is available outside of the SE USA, where I live. Wikipedia says "It has been produced since 1917, claiming to be 'the oldest continuing soft drink company still operated by the same family.'" So, maybe less evil? I do know it tastes quite good.
I'm gonna make a book recommendation. If you're enjoying this community, I bet you'd enjoy this book. There is a whole chapter on Wikipedia. (It's chapter W.)
What? That's not how a lottery ticket machine works. Part of the front has to be scratched off to determine if it is a winner, even with the machine. I know, because I remember having to scratch this part off myself for customers redeeming tickets back when I sold them. (The part the machine needed was along the edge, and many didn't scratch there.) (This is specific to Tennessee, but I doubt any state used a system where you can tell if it's a winner without anything being scratched.)
