bought a refurbished 5 year old Thinkpad via Amazon for $150. put linux on it, no regrets

cold smoke ftw

asserting dominance

so like a psyop

sounds like a conspiracy theory

fortunately our mobile OS manufacturer operates the most widely used search engine - so it’s a triviality to find the answer

rofl. apple stole their gui from xerox, so I guess he knew how it worked.

still failed, rather epically

X + 4 at minimum but it’s very situationally dependent.

really? I like BoA - the tellers are friendly and I’ve never really had any issues with extra fees. been with them for over 20 years now

it tastes good and it’s convenient - not all places have a wide variety of restaurants

“organic” is largely a marketing term - there’s no real conclusive evidence that organic foods are healthier.

AMD, for the last 17 years. I had an ATI card and it broke so I needed to RMA it but thats when AMD bought them out & the RMA’d card failed as well, within 48 hours - so I RMA’d again and again, same issue. RMA’d again and again, same issue. tossed the card & started using only Nvidia and have never had an issue since. fuck AMD.

cant think of anything I actively boycott, though I do avoid products that have overly enthusiastic marketing campaigns.

it’s the white dot in the lower left

restaurant food is basically normal food with a metric fuckton of butter, sugar, and salt added

there’s a few different reasons that I can see

• there were fewer people total, so fewer bands - ie: less trash to sort through / increased popularity

• there’s arguably more things to protest about nowadays but because of that there’s fewer things that both resonate with a lot of people and sound good at the same time

• if everyone is protesting, no one is. there’s too many different slogans being called out, too many different groups to support (ie: buy the album or give them radio time), and many of those groups are at odds with each other.

• technological advancement - radio is seen as a dead medium to many these days, there are far more ways to consume media than to listen to the radio. it may be that protest songs just dont air on the radio for that reason alone - their target demographic doesnt listen to radio.

God forsakes people all the time. most of us can take it.

dont use milk, use heavy cream

dont add sugar, add honey

granola is superior in every conceivable way though, so make this purchase a learning experience.

eh, you can but it’s slow and cumbersome - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0eexuJ9mBg

i guess that if we’re going to go the fantasy route, then I’d just steal everything I needed - the strong do as they please and the weak submit, after all. violence is the only language I’d need to speak
