I’m from the UK and ordered a GPU from B&H as they had a sale on and as a result it was a bunch cheaper - there was a some confusion on the billing address (mine doesn’t fit nicely in a US format & so got messed up when they tried to store it or something along those lines) but they were great to deal with about it so I’d definitely recommend them also
Not have any expectations about excelling in my career, nor any expectations about having support in serving the public, although that is entirely what we do.
I can’t think of too many I haven’t watched at all. Plenty I have seen a few episodes from and just didn’t get into. Although, many of these I should give another go because they, supposedly, got better later on. Such as The Expanse and Star Trek: Picard.
GOT I didn’t get into right away because, at the time it came out, I didn’t know shit about the book series and the ads made it look like another HBO show going at the time I was watching called Rome, but with a medieval Europe style instead of the Roman stuff so I was like “I don’t really want to watch two historical fictions at once when this one is already hella dense.” Had I known it was a fantasy, with magic and shit, I would have started it much sooner.
Most of I haven’t seen a single episode of is before my time. Like Dallas or My Mother the Car (was that one even popular or just really stupid? 🤔) Although I have never seen The Wire or 24 nor have I known a single person IRL who liked them.
I consume media like a fiend. Ever since I discovered piracy as a lad, there’s nothing out of reach to at least check out.
I haven’t coded in years but I recall that reading someone else’s code was like getting a glimpse of what their closets and cupboards probably looked like.
When I was 4 or 5 my 300 pound dad fell on me on the street.
Not well.
I basically still have a broken nose since then. The bone is blocking my left nostril for the most part. When I was at the hospital, none of the doctors noticed my broken nose. I did however need to get X-Ray or CT scan (I don’t remember which one it was) done urgently. The “urgently” took a month. “Oh, look, your nose was broken. You’ll be able to get plastic surgery at 18 for free, since it limits your breathing.”
Anyway, I’d still have bleeding face scraped from the asphalt. Perhaps even broken rib(s). It’s not unlikely for that to happen in such case, and it’s not like anyone would notice.
But this seems to be nothing special.
My dad broke his knee, called an ambulance, they took him to the ER. Then they took an X-Ray of his knee, someone just told him “It’s not broken. Go to checkup in a week.” He also had to get home somehow, on his own.
Well, anyway, he went to that doctor for the “Checkup” right next day. He looked at the X-Ray, said it’s very obviously broken and will need a surgery.
He also had some problem with his spine, took over 10 years for anyone to look at it, at which point it was late. Now his left leg is basically paralyzed and he’s on strong drugs.
My grandma had a badly done amputation, it kept bleeding and oozing pus. She also had some infusions recommended, but the doc who recommended those said she’ll need approval from GP. But the GP would have to visit her at home as transporting her would be too risky. Response from GP? “Not worth it, she’ll die soon anyway.”
Anyway, this kinda turned into rant. At the very least my whole mouth would be bleeding as I keep accidentally biting my cheeks and tongue.
From what I can tell,every account that people have cited as evidence for Charlie Chaplin losing a look a like contest are anecdotal and cant be verified.
But Dolly Parton really did lose in a Dolly Parton lookalike contest - and the winner was a drag artist (pretty sure it was a drag competition, and Dolly entered it for a laugh).
