I’m only still here because account deletion is broken on KBin.
It’s the final laptop in the same way that Theseus’s boat was the last one he ever bought. You can replace bits piecemeal, but at some point you’ll end up with enough leftovers for a whole new laptop.
That said, I have an Intel one and it’s a fantastic laptop. Also, not only are the motherboards capable of running on their own outside the laptop, but they’ve partnered with Cooler Master to make little cases for them so you can turn old mobos into mini PCs.
If 1000 satellites is all it takes to “erode the atmosphere” to a point where earth is uninhabitable, we’re already fucked a thousand times over.
It was probably shitty coke, but there was at least one time where my buddy said “yo this is some good stuff” and it still didn’t do it for me. Who knows if it actually was good stuff, though.
Yeah but what expectation could they have had that they’d need to communicate with Bethesda in the first place? The game’s been “complete” for several years at this point, and IIRC Skyrim Special Edition (the Skyrim version of what happened here) was both announced in advance and released as a separate game, so mods that weren’t getting updates could still function. In light of that, it seems reasonable for the developer to expect advance warning at least in the form of a press release prior to the update being made available. Should they have reached out every week asking whether Bethesda had any plans to update a 10-year-old game?
To add on to what everyone else is saying, compared to the Apollo capsules, Starship is fucking HUGE. Apollo 11’s capsule was 10 feet tall by 13 feet in diameter. Starship is 180 feet tall not including the launch vehicle.
Edit to add: Mercury was literally just an ICBM with a dude strapped on top, with Saturn V being based on that design. We’re only now beginning to make designs that are actually made just for space travel.
Cocaine.
Honestly, I don’t see what all the fuss is about. To me it feels like coffee, but it only lasts 15 minutes, tastes like shit, and costs upwards of a testicle and a half where I am. And no, I’m not looking for anyone to try and change my mind on that.
I mean wifi tethering. Sure, I could set up Tasker to turn it on once it detects that I’m in the car, but I’d personally rather save myself the effort.
Yeah but one of the reasons to pay for Tidal is the sound quality, and bluetooth sounds objectively worse than streaming directly on the car. Also, how am I supposed to maintain a wifi connection while moving? I’m not about to tether my phone every time I get in the car.
Just so you know, you can do Spotify and Tidal now with premium connectivity, too. Tidal is basically the only reason I have it, because the speakers are good enough for the sound quality difference to be noticeable. I agree with the rest of your points, though.
Huh, TIL you can put it back in the ground. I was under the impression it had to be burned off.
Natural gas is produced as a byproduct of gasoline production. He hasn’t done shit besides screw us out of access to a cleaner energy source we’re already producing.
What smells like copium in here?
YOU MEAN I HAVE TO PUT MY SHOES ON MY FEET MYSELF‽ UTTERLY UNUSABLE!
-Mr_Blott, probably
Yeah but at least our smugness isn’t based off 30-year-old information, unlike yours.
In my experience, YouTube is almost universally shit for anything to do with software. I’ve stopped bothering trying to find any software YouTubers and rely on blogs instead.
IIRC it was specifically Civics made after a certain year. I wanna say 1994? Subaru is super big on the concept, too, though. It’s actually where they got their name (“Subaru” apparently means “unity” in Japanese).
Yeah I never cared for him much before, but I also never cared about him much either. Now I actively despise him, which I guess is a form of successful marketing in that I’m still talking about him, but fuck it.
EDIT to add: I vaguely remember hearing that Civics were all compatible with the same parts regardless of model year, but I don’t know how true that is.
That’s a fair point, but I’ve already seen what one uninformed, idiotic YouTuber (LTT) is capable of achieving by closing his eyes, putting his fingers in his ears, stamping his feet, and whipping his equally uninformed followers into a frenzy over an issue that was almost entirely his own fault. I fully expect such events to continue as Linux gains popularity.
Unpopular opinion: I’m concerned that widespread adoption of Linux would mean a reduction in functionality for power users. Considering that the majority of “regular user” effort seems to be going into gaming, I’m doubly concerned that the first major group to embrace Linux would be Gamers, a demographic I think is capable of doing untold damage to the ecosystem at large.
I’d probably move to FreeBSD if things got to that point.
EDIT: by “Gamers” I don’t mean people who like video games, I mean the people who make video games their entire personality and assume they understand everything about a computer because they managed to install Steam without blowing away their entire OS.
Yeah, but not as a user-serviceable module that can be replaced with minimal effort. I think you’re grossly oversimplifying this point.
