Yeah, but there’s usually like 6 ice goons in riot gear with a lot of firepower. You hopefully kill a couple before getting shot to death yourself, and Trump doesn’t give a shit if a few of his goons die. Citizens need to take up arms and force ice out. Not hope a few get into shootouts at an occasional home here or there.

They started making shit TV’s (for their price) is why. They kept charging premium prices, but their quality of buying a TV that wouldn’t break like all the others dropped off a cliff.

Yes, but about 5 years or so ago sony started cheaping out on quality. You used to pay more for a Sony but the TV was better and more reliable than other brands. As of late, they still charged more, but they were just as likely to break or have problems than any other cheaper TV.

So was mine. Lol. I’m just old enough that I got around and saw books from other places.

Same book, but still color separated with business in yellow and residential in white.

Being owned by venture capitalists is pretty much an assurance that they’ll turn it to shit as much as they can get away with. The entire reason people abandoned digg for reddit in the first place was because it was selling out to ad space and shill accounts and manipulation. The venture capitalists will want big returns on their investments.

You know what? I like it, and I’ma start doing it.

It keeps getting worse, too. The nineties wasn’t that long ago. I swear.

I put Linux mint on my 2016 laptop. It runs great.

Passenger vehicles and homes and most businesses could be covered by solar and wind, but oil will still be used for quite a while for cargo shipping and commercial trucks and things like tires. We could use a lot less, but oil is going to hang around for quite a while. Passenger vehicles account for about 25% of oil used.

Windscribe has Linux versions. I just haven’t gotten it to work yet. I haven’t given it much time into getting it figured out yet. I like windscribe and buy it yearly, so I’m not planning on switching any time soon.

Only thing I haven’t got to work yet for some reason is my windscribe VPN application. Easy move, really. Mint cinnamon.

Or, I can just not use a program like chocolatey and just go one and done on ninite. Heaven forbid they only have apps on there to choose from that are popular and people want to install. I’ve never had issues with any of the programs being behind on version, but it isn’t like each program can’t check for newer versions of itself

The real mvp comes from one of the best website hosts in the world. If you have to be on windows and especially if you’re setting up a fresh install; use www.ninite.com.

It bypasses all the prompts and warnings and opt in\out prompts of a ton of common programs you’d want to install on your PC into one single and quick install. You check mark each of the programs you want from the list (web browsers, anti virus, video players, etc) and it hands you over a single install file to take care of automatically installing them all at once. Best website their is if you’re a windows user. I’ve counted on this gem for well over a decade. I only have one PC left that I keep windows on now, and I’ll be swapping that over to Linux as well by November this year when windows 10 stops getting security updates.

At least it took less than 2 minutes to find…

When I clicked to see the image, I was honestly expecting the trash pile to be a Tesla Truck.

Just buy two old 8GB ddr3 sticks and solder them together to make a 16GB ddr6 stick? Cheaper and one better than ddr5.

About 5 million people is the sweet spot. Went through it with digg. Went through it with Reddit. The amount of content here is enough for general content absorption, but not enough for any niche interests. For instance, on reddit there was a sub with 40k members for yo-yo’s. Here, one doesn’t exist in a usable form. 5 million is enough for most niche topics, but still manageable for controlling and keeping out all of the bullshit. By 10 to 15 million all the advertisers and manipulators and bots and money interests start taking over.

I remember having those! … You normally wear them with shoes on.

Santa’s magical and in a mood. He actually cursing people. Turn em into a fucking newt, or cause your descendants to all be short.
