I think the point of the phrase is to generate outrage to push against it

Jesus, 10Gbps!? I’m paying $90 for “gigaspeed” AT&T fiber. But, I’m luckier than most, I have AT&T fiber and Metronet as fiber providers, as well as Spectrum and T-Mobile (but yuck to using 5G as my primary source of internet).

What do you mean don’t trust polls? They were perfectly cromulent back in 2016 when they perpectly prodicted that Hillary Clinton won.

Surry, I just realized what dimension I’m in. You poor basturds.

What’s next? Reddit Coin? NFTs?

I noticed Gatorade has a Pedialite now. I decided to try it and I could tell it was less sweet, maybe more salty.

I have a story, so I get wanting great video quality and why people get remuxes, but I have a friend who is borderline legally blind. His vision is so poor that he has to wear contacts and glasses at the same time. He has to get the remux version of things and complains about minor encoding artificacts from versions of things with smaller file sizes that I feel wouldn’t bother 99.9% of the population. Hell years ago, before he got an updated prescription, he was driving and he mentioned how bad his vision was getting and I asked him if he could read the license plate for the car stopped in front of us and he laughed and said no. Anyway, I feel like the extra quality is wasted on him. He’s like an audiophile who is hard of hearing. I just find this funny and wanted to share.

They need to add a row for “Owned by a foreign superpower”“Owned by the Chinese government” and a check for Opera.

I’m loving KDE’s Neon distro that’s based off Ubuntu. I’ve not had to do much faffing around to get it the way I want it and anyone that has used Windows should be comfortable using it. KDE Plasma feels very polished and streamlined.

On my laptop, I’ve switched to Linux since, despite being built in 2017, doesn’t meet Win 11’s min requirements. This is horseshit, I don’t care how MS explains it or justifies it, there’s nothing wrong with it. I’m sure during development, they realized a 20 year old computer could run Win 11 and decided to make up requirements to force people into buying new PCs.

Anyway, I’m using KDE Neon and I’m loving its ease of use and simplicity. I have barely needed to dive into the terminal to fix anything and KDE Plasma feels very polished and user friendly. To me, it feels like the new “normie-friendly” Linux. And without the horseshit telemetry and Microsoft spying, it’s like a brand new PC.

Yeah, dedicated fingerprint readers were so nice. On-screen readers are slow, require you to look to align your finger, and unreliable since the thumb gets most of the abuse. Also, I usually have to press the power button when taking my phone out of my pocket to wake it up to bother to scan my thumb. Sometimes, I will be perfectly aligned on the reader and nothing happens… Until I pick up my finger and then it activates the reader and scolds me for moving my finger too fast. These are just neat tech demos, one step forward for the tech, but two steps back for functionality.

I’m afraid we’ll never see separate fingerprint readers again since it puts the cost and manufacturing burden on the screen manufacturers.

I seem to be fine on my P8P

Living to 100 was a pretty big “fuck you” though :\

Present participle of ‘narc.’

It’s the latest exciting chapter of “Plex and the Quest for Investibility!”

Open source irl

God wants you to use it.

I really miss interpreting the vague random words from God. Funnily enough, God via TempleOS was what told me to transition to Linux in the first place!

Chicken tenders would have been a better choice than sandwich

I don’t understand where they’re getting their data from and what phones are doing this.

Do it!
