If I can customize my house in the game, why shouldn't I customize the game in my house?

A good advice, but most regular people don't seem to bother with rotating physical off-site storage mediums so I advocate automated (and encrypted) backups to a cloud or something as well.

Due to the green economy I only buy second or third hand disks for my RAID0 setup

i can optimize a system for negligible results all night until it runs smoooth and purrs like a kitten

Wait, is that purring a destabilized fan? I'll have to get back to you.

I did some quick digging and found an article I shared with the community (UFO Contacts in Italy Volume Two).

It talks about “Velivoli Non Convenzionali” or VNC as an acronym for "Unconventional Flying Vehicles" and a VNC sighting in Venice, 1931. That could be it.

I find it curious that this have seemingly been worked on for decades and that the book was published years before the recent hearings that brought up the incident again. It could either support the claim as an independent third party, but could as easily be the source of the claims as well.

I have Elite: Dangerous. I literally built a 6D motion sensor headtracking rig with IR diodes and a modified PS EYE. 30 hours of config later I had the P E R F E C T config, so I moved on to new games.

Balancing the insane ADS in Cyberpunk 2077 by manually editing core files while battling 150+ mods, now that's what I call enjoyable gaming!

I build my desktop setup from Debian base so I can be more offbeat than the arch crowd.

Have you ever tried to challenge the system and see what happens if you don't click restart?

I’m to tired to make quality posts.

There's room for shitty posts too. 🫂

Made just a few years after the Roswell incident, it gives an early view on the phenomena and some of the pop-cultural impact. Nothing in here that haven't been discussed to death since, but it's a curious look at a different time with perhaps many of the same questions we have today.

Found this, unknown origin but cites sources so thought it was worth a share.

While the provided list is more of an example than anything, I have the impression there is countless historical records of possible sightings - From ancient descriptions of legendary flying fire chariots to paintings containing objects surprisingly similar to modern descriptions of UFO's.

We know people describe unknown events with the best words they have. Modern examples can be when firescene investigations get testimonies that "The fire jumped from seat to seat". Does fire even have legs to jump with? I would not be surprised if ancient stories about "wheels within wheels" or "Flying chariots of fire" could be describing events they simply didn't have words for.

With all of the stories that could be interpreted as ancient stories of UFO's, even if just a small percentage of the are real - It would mean the UFO phenomenon have interacted with earth for at least thousands of years.

What is your thoughts on this, anything to it? Do you have different estimates? Do you think the phenomena started in 1947? Is it all just a pop-cultural mediaindustrial hoax complex?
