    Just a head’s up to everyone: I may be around less the next few days (possibly not noticeably so) so if things don’t get posted uh… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Got 2 computers in the house, 1 is dying, tried to replace it, shit went wrong, said computer now looks to be dead, and 2 people gotta share this one which is well past its life span XD

    Just found out that Andre the Giants first lost was to Kendo Nagasaki. I feel like I need to get that out there, it’s been throwing me off for a while.

        Thank you! The best I can come up with is GCW, a bunch of others, not AEW or TNA or PPVs. I can’t decide if I wanna pull the trigger or not. I need to figure out if MLP (I keep second guessing myself. I think that’s the right one) is PPV or included with the subscription.

        I’m conflicted because I don’t really know anything on there, except kind of GCW. It makes me both hesitant and curious. I want to branch out and explore other promotions, but I have no way of applying a value to the subscription

          I’d recommend if you aren’t 100% sure by at the latest April, give it a month or so around then specifically (even if its just for a one month test). During WrestleMania weekend GCW puts on ‘The Collective’ which is a ton of PPVs. During this past WM weekend they had 7 shows (one co-produced with TJPW, 2 Joey Janela shows, a couple GCW/JCW shows, Bloodsport, For The Culture (all black wrestlers), plus 3 more a week or two later so that’ll be worth the cost alone (April 17-19 2025 is the coming one)

    I’m getting real tired of trying to brush thermal paste out of a CPU socket and I just really needed to state that.

        Friend built and shipped us a PC to replace my wife’s dying laptop, once it hit the border the customs office fistfucked it somehow and we’ve been trying for days to clean it up, fix it, and figure out what exactly they broke so we can file a claim.

        like…this fucking heatsink is supposed to sit…well exactly how you think a heatsink fits, but when it arrived and you took the side of the case off you could see it was at an angle. It was still securely screwed in place, the fucking thick ass steel pipes were fucking bent. That doesn’t happen in shipping, that doesn’t happen unless you open the case and wrench the fucking thing to hell.

        Inside of the glass panel was scratched, the thing will not POST which could be the CPU (I bought a second one to test as well), then noticed the paste in the bracket 🤦‍♂️ and buddy 100% did the thermal paste correctly as he’s not an idiot so that’s on the customs fuckers. 3 of its 8 fans aren’t working (but that’s at least minor), just a big clusterfuck so I’ve been scrubbing this cunt with a saw’d down toothbrush and ISO for the last 3 days trying to get the paste out with a bad back and possible torn muscle letting me bend down for no more than 2 mins at a time and several days of horrid sleep.

        So I’ll find out hopefully in the morning when I finish if its the CPU, or if the motherboard is also fucked and hopefully find a way to locate said customs office agent and fistfuck their arsehole the same way they did the PC while on my way to a repair shop 🙃

        Edit: Also super glad he swapped cases and thermals before sending the PC to us cause it was gonna be watercooled 🤣 I could only imagine the mess…

            Update: The problem is still unknown.

            it was not, however, the thermal paste in the socket 🤦‍♂️ nor the CPU as the brand new one is also red-lighting. Repair shop time, damnit lol.
