He’s thinking alot between sentences.

Their UI choices continue to puzzle me to this day. Gnome 2 truly was peak Gnome.

Authoritarian governments do not like the anonymity the internet affords it’s citizens. They are “fixing” this issue under the best guise they have: “child safety.” won’t someone think of the children?

But why does the HDMI fourm not want a open source 2.1-compliant implementation? Is it DRM related? I feel like it’s DRM related.

That’s great and all but Discord is still on my short list of services to ditch.AND FFS DISCORD, I DO NOT WANT NITRO, I JUST WANT TO TALK TO MY FRIENDS!!

I agree, having a bit more memory than you typically use is a good idea, there is a point of diminishing returns though. If you typically use less than 16GB of memory, buying 64GB isn’t really giving you much of an advantage because the majority of that memory will sit unused. You could argue future proofing, but the fact is you would be better off waiting to purchase that extra memory when you actually need it as it will (usually) be cheaper by that time.

Kids these days will never get to experience the bliss of wading through a pit of plastic balls that all smell vaguely of piss.

Remember kids: Unused memory is wasted memory.

I’m pretty sure Nedry was the engineer. Arnold was systems administrator / operator. Neither were computer scientists.

Nope. In fact, I only ever bother to update it when I have issues with playback which is maybe one every few months.

Once again being lazy and not updating my shit has averted potential disaster.

if Stellantis can offer $16,500 off a new Jeep then it just proves that the Jeep was never worth that much to begin with.

Ah, fascinating. Poor Xerox though.

I think Microsoft put the recycle logo on theirs because Apple used the “Trash bin” moniker and Microsoft wanted to appear more green or whatever.

I’d still be using my OG Google Pixel if it hadn’t suffered a sudden and unexpected death. I was using it like normal one day and it just turned off.

Yeah, no shit. No one wants to buy a new $1200 phone that does the exact same shit as the last $1200 phone.

At first I was like, “yeah who doesn’t remember that?” Then I realized that it was over 10 years ago and my heart sank a little… We getting old, homies.

I recently purchased a 65" Vizio from Walmart for pretty cheap and paired it with their Onn 4K Android TV box. Kept the TV disconnected from WiFi. It works pretty good but the TV liked to nag about not being connected so I created a hidden guest SSID that had no internet access and connected the TV to it to make it shut up. All in all it’s not a perfect solution but it works and no ads like Samsung TVs.
