Look I've grown to love these WSB guys in the last few days just like most of you have, but these are self-proclaimed autists, single, living at home, with disposable income. You think they're gonna let this SLIDE? This is as personal as it gets for them. Hell, I'd be lying if I said it wasn't at least somewhat personal for me now, especially after a day of the TV news media illustrating how in-bed they are with Wall Street. Fuck those people.

Biggest piece of advice is that the enemy almost always targets whoever you're controlling, so switching often can make things a lot easier.Yeah, it took me a while to understand and manipulate that mechanic.

I'd never disqualify Bonds, but a Mt. Rushmore has four faces Babe Ty Cobb Cy Young Ted Williams DiMaggio Mays Aaron Bonds Some BIG names are getting omitted.

Once it hits 90% and above it starts getting too one-note for me (it's hard to taste anything but the cacao's natural bitterness), but 70-85% chocolate is maybe my favorite delicacy. --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |

There is far more market space available in the SephG demographic than in the Corriks Mother In Law demographicI dunno, the affluent "Orange County, CA" Republicans aren't that numerous compared to these angry, non-college educated Trumpers. From a strictly business point of view, I think Fox News is making the right move by pivoting further to crackpotism and abandoning whatever pretense of journalism they may have been pretending to peddle.

Or at least they've been given so much slack up until this point that they believe that no one else will think they did anything wrong. All they have to do is explain their side of the story and shift blame to [Insert Buzzword] and everything will be a-okay, just like it always is.The cognitive dissonance and air of superiority from every vocal Trump supporter I've ever spoken to (granted, not a large sample size) is honestly shocking. The one Trumper lady I finally told off - for being openly racist and bigoted toward Hispanics - had asked me to commit tax fraud, admitted to committing tax fraud herself for years, and had hired and worked with an illegal immigrant for over a decade (but since it was a cute white guy from Italy, she saw no problem with it). This is their country and they're entitled to all of it, moral consistency be damned. --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
| Topic | Desktop/laptop/docking station hardware question |
| CaptainOfCrush 01/13/21 9:18:33 PM #1 | Note: I have done almost zero preliminary research, so feel free to roast me if the answer is easy to find. Just gigured I'd throw B8 the first pass here. I am looking to connect two monitors to both a desktop and a laptop docking station at the same time. My current home workstation is simple: one monitor connected to a desktop. I want to add a second monitor, which is easy enough. However, my gf just got a new job where she will be working from home with an assigned laptop, and I'd like to see if my home workstation can benefit her as well. I want to get a laptop docking station and connect the two monitors to both it AND my desktop. Essentially, the monitors would work as intended with my desktop but would then "switch over" and serve as her laptop screens the moment she plugs her laptop into the docking station. Can this be done? Monitors these days have multiple display ports (the one I have now has an HDMI and VGA), so there are theoretically enough ports all around to do the job physically, but I've never seen anyone utilizing this kind of setup, so who knows if it's possible. --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
