    Speaking of streaming, do you have a schedule for Dec 26th or after? I guess my prime sub is available at that time

    Well I'm going on holiday on the 27th, so I'm not sure if I will be streaming then.
    I will take my laptop with me, but the wifi is probably too slow

    I will try to stream tho, probably :)

    Always worth it, especially if your laptop can handle the encoding. You don't really need too much upload. I've totally streamed from my old T480 laptop (8th gen i7) with a capture card (switch and tetris99) over wifi and it was just fine with 1080p.

    Yeah, it can handle it, but I am pushing the laptop to its limits

    hehe, always fun. If temps become an issue, check out ptm7950, it does wonders in laptops or things where the die is directly exposed

    I do have like a small portable fan for my laptop tho

    ptm7950 is like a weird phase changing pad that is between some good paste and liquid metal. It's not worth the price is the CPU/whatever has a lid or space for proper cooling but does do wonders when the die is directly exposed and space is more limited (like handhelds and laptops)

    About two hours remaining!

    Yup, yet another RackNerd Black Friday Social butterfly concluding. Bittersweet moment :)

    Yep. And it's my first time actually win ing something

    Congrats, Bas. May you win more and I hope you guys will also.be participating in the NY thread if or when it happens.

    I really hope there's going to be a NY thread too!

    I'm sure there will be one, along with a January racknerd/lowendbox gleam giveaway

    I don't really like gleam anymore

    Understandable. Honestly, for the jan one, I'm probably not going to get every daily bonus. Like all giveaways though, I never expect to win anything. I really wish there was a way to see how many gleam contents I've entered over the years because it's been a lot and I've only ever won one time

    I usually just do 1 entry and that's it. If I win anything nice, but if I don't win anything, that's also fine for me

    hehe, 99% of the them I enter, it's just the initial entries and that day's daily bonus. If there's a bonus code I see on LEB, I will then get that bonus code and that day's daily bonus but that's about it. For gleam giveaways on other platforms/links, it's seriously just the initial entry and that's it. I honestly forget about them. It's only during BF/NY that I actually get more daily entries since I ususally check LET daily and my signature reminds me to take the couple of seconds

    Yeah I usually forget about them too. And i don't feel like doing all that effort. I don't think the chances of actually winning are worth it.
    I'd rather participate here :)

    I wonder if we're going to get another yangyang block before the end. I mean, i can totally see it happening but I can also see it not happening until after it's over.

    We still have an hour!

    yep, about 1hr left!

    I'm really curious which of us gets the 5th and 6th spot, as our comment counts are really close!

    Yeah, same here. I mean I would love the credit more but at the same time I won't be mad either since winning something is always nice. Honestly, I have no plans on looking at the stats page until after it's over to keep the suspense up :)

    So my current revised things to scrape is

    • comment id
    • username
    • timestamp of comment (in utc)
    • comment text/string (no quote text)

    I feel like that would give me everything that's needed without duplicating anything. I did think about having if it was quoted/reply to a different comment but with how deep some get or how some comments are replies to multiple comments, I can see it getting annoying. Plus, I don't really know what I would do with that data besides finding out who replied to who the most. Which would be cool but meh.

    Yeah the reply thing might be pretty annoying to do

    Yeah, especially when there's no real use for that data, it's just not worth it, even if it would be easy

    Saves some storage this way

    yep, will save some but with just text/numbers, I wouldn't expect it to be that big overall. Would be different if the video/images were actually in posts instead of links

  • needs to be more mid-western, where's all the snow?! :lol:

    exactly, it's worth commenting more but even then, if there's folks determined, it's not really worth it to me. I do love the giveaways though. Some luck with refreshing but it's more based on you. Plus, it's an adrenaline rush.

    Woot! Early congrats dude! Always nice to win something. There's also a NY thread where it goes off comment counts iirc and there's much more winners. There's also random giveaways in thread too

    Oh cool! I will surely participate

    yeah, no clue if I will actually aim from a prize or do my normal "chat when I can and I get what I get" tactic

    I will probably aim for a prize, any prize. Would be nice to have like a free vps for life!

    hehe, I want the credit prize as I planned on seeing if I can generate enough invoices for a flash sale to have the server paid for like 10 years

    Oh nice! How much ram would that vps have?

    it's the 2 core ryzen with 2G ram. I did add the ram upgrade giveaway I won so it's actually 2.5G

    I legit kind of want to wear shorts outside today. It's like 38F (3C) but feels like 42F (5C) out. Compared to the 0F (like -17/18C) that I've been having without windchill, it feels like summer :joy:

  • lol you guys are battling it out for last 2 spots? =) way to finish up

    If I do end up making my own scraper for these threads, at most I'll have it sync up every 15 minutes but might go with every 30 minutes instead just to keep it interesting. Obviously there's MrEd's and TrK's pages that sync faster but I wouldn't look at them if I had my own. Mostly because I like the suspense of not knowing. I mean, I know I'll win something so the what is the suspense part of it

    brrr, especially since you're not used to it. It's funny how the temp feel when you're used to it compared to not being used to it. Ooo, there's a funny video about it, let me try to find it :lol:

    when F & C meet up, it's more use to say "freezing" cause "below zero" is like 34/17deg difference for both..

    For the most part but sometimes it's not. Sometimes I do get pics or links to a random google pic/recipe but not always. I'm not one to pry for those details though.
