Skill issue. Sounds like they need to hear it more often tbh.

Oh! I thought that was a different kind of BBC.

I’m looking forward to Palword Legends Y-X

I have a refurbished laptop, no clue how old it is, but its battery has long since died. It runs Xubuntu, it’s fully up-to-date, and it’s still a fine lunchtime battlestation. It’s not gonna win any awards and it doesn’t have the latest gaytracing graphics chip, but all I do is browse the fed, what more do I need?

What, exactly, do you think a community of randos is going to do against a heavily-armed extra-legal military operation?

This isn’t a jab or a gotcha, I’m genuinely curious what this idea of community defense would look like.

I thought everyone had heard this meme by now.

I edited my post to add the source.

Isn’t Prevent Cancer Foundation that charity that gives GDQ kickbacks? Or am I getting my wires crossed?

Based on comments, and my own web searching, I’m pretty sure I was mistaken.

To spell this out clearly, the reason RAM has quadrupled in price is that a huge quantity of RAM that hasn’t been produced yet has been bought with money that doesn’t exist to populate GPUs that also haven’t been produced to go in datacenters that haven’t been built powered by infrastructure that may never exist to meet a demand that doesn’t exist at all to make profit margins that mathematically can’t exist while economists talk about this thing they call the “rational markets hypothesis”.

I’ve literally never heard it with a -m before. Usually it’s just “tada”. :)

I’m so glad I didn’t end up going into IT. Retail can be tiring but IT would be soul destroying.

What the heck is a ta-da-m? It sounds like some kind of exotic medication 🤭

Anyway, how is your sex life?

I’m in my 40s and a body pillow is all I need.

That’s what I meant, yeah.

Am I the only one who would never trust hotel wifi with a device I actually care about?

In the UK you can set up a self-insurance fund. But to do it you have to set aside tens of millions of pounds in a dedicated, easily-accessible fund, and hire an expensive lawyer who knows how to do it. Probably better to just take the hit and invest the millions at that point. I don’t know. I’m not a millionaire. I’m not even a thousandaire. :P

I’d like to say I upvote anything that I think is a positive addition to the community it’s posted in, regardless of whether I agree with it substantively or not. But honestly, it’s all just vibes.

Downvotes aren’t a thing on my instance and I like it that way.

HOW COME NETFLIX REMOVED THE N FROM THEIR SHOWS, KIND OF MAKE IT SEEM LIKE THEY BORROW ALL THE STUFF? I USUALLY USE IT FOR A SEGWAY INTO OTHER SHOWS/MOVIES NOT MADE BY THEM?

(sorry, couldn’t resist)

Turns out: nothing really.

I’m not even a man and I’d totally go in, order a round of hot chocolates, and start building a ramp.
