There’s countries that still have faith in the US?

It’s as good to agree as it is to disagree. It’s not good to disagree for the sake of it, so you’re doing good 😊

Comparing everything to their insignificant home town.

“Wow! Ancient aqueducts! We don’t have that back in Springfield, but we have faster table service.”

Okaaaay…

I ask, “So what do you do?”

If they answer with hobbies and interests, they’re more my kind of person. If they answer with their job stuff, well that’s just their main life thing.

Greenland, Colombia, Cuba, Iran… The justifications for them being just as bullshit as Venuzuala, so undoubtedly there’s huge concern.

But look how long it took for other nations to react when Hitler started occupying country after country. Sadly, shouldn’t have hopes up.

I don’t. It seems risky af.

There was local reports it was “pyrotechnics related” but still no confirmation. Doesn’t seem intentional.

It’s easier for me if you just Google epidemiological and immunological reviews yourself.

If there’s a 1TB cap, I don’t even understand the point of needing a 1Gbps connection. I assume their market is just people that want to say they have a 1Gbps connection, but all they do is stream or play the odd game.

No I didn’t realise that because I’ve never seen it before.

We literally know that people with germophobia ironically suffer infection much more because they shoot their immune system to hell. If someone’s paying attention to the ridges of a token, I can only imagine the levels of auto-immunity they self-inflict on their body.

But, no, the ridges in the token are the threat to their health /s

There’s kind of been an increase in things being more accessible and usable by the standard user where previously they would need to be quite savvy or know a language.

But, yeah, I can’t think of much else. Not user-based tech anyway. Just the usual insignificant increases and a bunch of bullshit no one asked for and actually ends up using, but has to pay for.

I think smartphones are an excellent example. Most people wouldn’t notice the differences between a second-hand $150 Samsung Galaxy from five years ago, and the latest flagship for 10× the price. The innovation is almost entirely unnoticeable.

Everything you touch is “unsanitary as all hell”. Like, you think whatever’s on tokens stops there and isn’t on the machine you’re playing, the door handle you’re turning, the counter you’re touching? In the last hour you’ve handled shit way worse and you’ll handle much more of it before the day’s over.

How good is hospital recovery?

Sure, there’s some cons, but you basically get a free card to game relentlessly, undisturbed, and guilt-free. Tragically, you eventually heal up and have to go back to being a normie.

Yeah but it’s like the gearbox. While everything’s pulled apart, you may as well swap out the clutch, bearing, and flywheel too because they’ll need replacing again first. Especially if better versions of them are now supported.

There’s just a lot of thought put in for the user. Excellent UI and productivity features, so much customisability. It’s super fast and light. Then there’s built in blockers, VPN, all the usual. To top it all off, it’s made by a small group of Norwegians that hate corporate control and love an open and free internet. They even have their own fediverse instances.

After I had spent an hour going down the rabbit hole of tweaking every UI element so the browser was now my browser, I was hooked. I still have to use Firefox at work, but I now find it intrusive, sluggish, and crude. I also hate having to restart it for updates lol.

I prefer Edge over Chrome, and if I had to choose one, Edge is definitely better. But gladly I don’t have to choose one and never will. Been with Vivaldi for years after switching off FF.

Yeah but they don’t have the money to introduce quality governance into this. So the brain trust of Reddit it is. Which explains why LLMs have gotten all weirdly socially combative too; like two neckbeards having at it—Google skill vs Google skill—is a rich source of A+++ knowledge and social behaviour.

I dunno who’d ever want to use that font as an override for the default.

Well it’s pointless engaging with them any further. So become an actual bot.

Create a ChatGPT conversation, give the context and ask for a reply. See how long you can keep it up by telling the bot what reply you got from them next. You barely have to do anything, just copy+paste.

Its more fun to not even read anything that’s going on until the end.

Also, block ML already.

I’m a follower and just go with Corsair Vengeance. Hasn’t ever let me down.

I think all my SSDs are Samsung. Nvme are Kingston and so I like to think they have thick Jamaican accents, mon. No issues with any of it and some of that storage is getting real old.

Thing with PC parts is it’s worth paying a bit more for quality. Ends up being much cheaper in the long term.
