What’s that? Could be a plane. Or maybe a train locomotive. Maybe an old Pontiac even.

Which is why I never answer the phone.

Can someone make it for Firefox?

Bags of baby carrots are nice.

Also those cans of fruit with no sugar added. I call those adult fruit cups.

That computer will do everything you listed, and be able to run most coding environments if you choose to do that as well. And 250 bucks is a great price, I’d say.

Fuck the rest of the admins too while we’re at it.

I’m not going to give up, but I’ve really stagnated on upgrades over the past decade.

I used to get a new phone every year back when you could do that for $100 a year. Now I go five years between.

My last computer was built in 2012 and I used it until October 2024, and could have kept using it. It was fully upgraded and played all new games on high settings fine. That said, I’m extremely glad I did a new build in October 2024.

And then you have consoles. One has no exclusives and is dead, the other has two exclusives and is there, and the other is Nintendo and is expensive and has its own lineup issues, depending on who you ask.

Tech is stagnating hard and has been for a while. Buy the mid range or high end of what you can afford and acquire right now, and then sit on it for a decade.

This is exactly it. The Muskrats, Benzos, and Zuccs of the world want people to think that the future is only on the cloud, because it benefits their business.

The problem with that is that most people are tech illiterate, and will see the cloud as an easy way to just exist with less wires.

Reading comments from people who just do not care whether they own their software, and now hardware, is alarming.

It’s people like us who have to be loud about it.

Blombo solely because of the name.

Is that another term for “couch co-op” or is that a term used in Civ? I’ve never heard it used this way before, but it makes sense.

I didn’t know Bad Bunny was a dude until the whole Superb Owl outrage happened.

I’d rather just pay it once and have it.

Like video games. Just let me pay money for the whole game.

Surprised it didn’t happen sooner.

And on that note, I would absolutely download a car.

Can’t argue with that logic.

That’s also the thing. It came out in June. Prices will not go down. Everyone who wanted one already got one.

If I had done 64 instead of 32, I’d seriously be considering selling 32GB to upgrade my GPU right now.

Maybe they should come up with something better then. Steam didn’t win the marketplace war by being assholes.

I was about to say. I haven’t seen a YouTube ad in a decade between uBlock and Vanced. The updates are immediate.

Only thing is he is very aware of this and has since stopped posting content like that, nearly a decade ago, and has removed any of it from his channel, and never talks about it.

He went overboard, seemingly realized his screw up, and stopped with the gun crap. I wouldn’t be following him if he was still posting the gun stuff, but that was even before I found him in 2017.

Unlike a lot of those kind of gun people, he at least seems self aware. Again, this is only since I’ve started watching his content in 2017. No idea how had it was prior to that.

I thought VR would be more widespread by now.

And it’s probably because of the two next things I thought as well.

I thought it would be cheaper and easier to do by now. More like a Google Glass kind of thing. But we’re still playing 4 figures for dedicated massive headsets to strap to our heads. No wonder it didn’t take off.

And I mean dedicated like the HTC Vive. Not the Quest.
