I find it fascinating how the concept of coping with a situation has been made into a negative. “Get bent loser, how dare you try to make the best out of a bad situation”. Hold on, let me unfuck the tech sector real quick.

It made the most satisfying “clunk” sound 🤤

I’ve minimized my short form video consumption and reliance on Youtube for entertainment for this very reason. Podcasts are great to listen to when I’m doing chores

“Just empty your wallet into our bank accounts, peasant”

I’m hanging onto every bit of consumer hardware for this very reason. Hobbysts should get more into recycling and refurbishing existing hardware, especially mobile phone boards instead of buying doohickies.

Salesman shills product, nothing new. Besides, there is too much commodity hardware floating around for this to be plausible.

This should have been done 20 years ago, but better late than never.

Sadly, this is exactly what’s happening.

Lol

Lmao even

My current Laptop was bought with no OS. I refuse to give my money to Microsoft.

So no ports, a shitty battery and OS level spyware? Pass.

Modern pop music is already compressed to hell, FLAC is a waste of bandwidth unless you’re encoding orchestral pieces.

Dell and Lenovo price gouge consumers

FTFY

Because they would (for some reason) never open their source code.

It’s called a world clock

Honestly, at this point Microsoft should do what Apple did, and build a completely new OS on top of the BSD kernel.

Gamers, I think it is time that we do the unthinkable.

We must actually play our backlog of games.

Why the fuck are all the rich assholes tweaked out of their gourds? It speakes volumes that even those at the top of this bullshit society hate it and resort to drugs to cope.

The same reason why windows has that stupid desktop search - so that some twat with an MBA can brag about user engagement and justify his existence. Also, to hoover up user data for slop machine training.

Get a monitor, you don’t need a wall sized tv. I got a pair of Displayport monitors for free, and they perform admirably.
