Yes, I do. In this case I think it’s vital to link to the source, since the meme make it look like this garbage was a real thing.

Man, the flashback from that UI. I just went back to the happiest days of my life for a second.

No-one was researching this topic. This interview came out of a philosopher’s ass. https://alexandrite.app/feddit.de/comment/9260446

Soo… since OP is a jackass, here’s the link: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/news/10697529/Prisoners-could-serve-1000-year-sentence-in-eight-hours.html

The gist (emphasis mine):

Philosopher Rebecca Roache […] said, […] “you could imagine developing a pill or a liquid that made someone feel like they were serving a 1,000-year sentence”

I can’t fathom why this is report-worthy. Was April 2014 such a boring month?

If you’re close enough to the impact to see the mushroom cloud, the only choice you get is if you want to die instantly or after a week or so.

(Not a physicist or a physician.)

its fantastic for development, but start a few android emulators and docker containers and I can easily run out of RAM

As I said, that’s not the regular use case for most people.

I knew this comment would be coming. I’d say that someone who doesn’t know what RAM is casually browses the web or uses office apps. These use cases don’t require 8GB, even on Windows.

Not everyone has a level of tech literacy you might wish for. People assume that Apple has good-quality products (which they do, I’m told) and buy them without doing research. Since you cannot expect everyone to be an expert in every product they buy, it’s reasonable to expect – well, at least wish for – Apple to not sell products that will be dated in 3 years.

Second-hand physical books often cost 3,01€, where 3,00€ are shipping. That’s no match for digitals. Also I hate handheld devices that can’t take a beating (looking at you, smartphone). I’m clumsy. I drop things. Books survive that. E-readers… I don’t wanna test.

Also, for whatever reason, I read physical books more carefully than text on screen.

The last printer I got cost 40€. Print shops charge 10ct per copy. That’s 400 prints just to amortize the cheapest garbage printer you could buy 10 years ago. And the ink doesn’t last 400 prints. Owning a printer just doesn’t make sense.

I hope it’s at least in standby mode, and not always on.

Yep, and align isn’t a real property, either.

It’s a typo. The colon should be a semicolon. But since it’s the last declaration, it’s optional.

With a minimum wage job ($7.25/hr) you need to work about 5 to 13 hours per day to make that much – before taxes.

This is the main point of this post. The meme is just a means to gain attention. I believe people are more likely to consume meme posts than plaintext.

I don’t know. Maybe not flying just for fun—literally?

“We need to do something about climate change,“ he thought on his trans-Pacific flight home.

Thanks for pointing it out. I corrected the post.

If all the bloat means that both the Wifi AND the external screen AND the touchpad work out of the box SIMULTANEOUSLY, go for it.

sudo maintains ‘sudo state’ for 15 minutes. After that you need to enter the password again.

The fretboard doesn’t match either of them. It shows CEADG
