As I typed my comment, I realised someone would correct me with hyperspecific linux terminology. But I support your correction good sir.

For anyone else wondering, this is a X11 vs Wayland meme - i.e. desktop window managers. Yeah.

I'm no Mr beast fan, but the dystopia you feel isn't his fault. It's the fault of our society. It's the fact that some people have to rely on a clickbait youtubers generosity to have vision surgery, instead of it being freely available. It's the fact that inequality is so rampant and ever growing due to our infinite capacity for greed.

I mean you nailed it. It's entertainment - validation for people who want to buy the shiny new Apple thing. "Look how cool it looks in these artsy shots", forgetting it's a carbon copy of last year's model.

If only life were that simple. Whose laptops am I going to buy?

Dell: Marks up replacement SSD prices by 10x (including the predatory behaviour of embedding QR codes to these in the bios to be shown in error states)

Apple: ...

Lenovo: History of installing literal spyware

Microsoft: Bad products

I understand that's the reason why they're doing it - but what excuse can they give? I guess I shouldn't be too surprised at the things consumers will endure - just look at literally everything apple does.

Can someone explain why there's a cloud printing service involved here at all? We've been able to print over WiFi for a decade now.

Interesting point about tourniquets is that improper use can be worse than just not using one. If it's tied too loose you compress the superficial veins but not the deeper arteries, increasing blood loss.

Its Deus Ex time

CGP Grey is personally painful to me. He used to be a no-nonsense education youtube legend, but in the last few years he's just maximised clickability - even going thorugh his whole back catalogue and changing titles and thumbnails.

For example, he made a great video about generative adversarial networks ~5 years ago but now its titled "How machines like ChatGPT learn" - despite coming out before GPT.

The extension allows you to keep the original thumbnail or a random frame from the video is a community-submitted thumbnail is unavailable.

Can vouch this extension is amazing. I started using it when it had 200 chrome downloads and it was already had many prominent creators in its database.

Title and thumbnail replacements are based on community votes, just like sponsorblock.
