I like a very small amount of RGB.

I didn't always, I wanted full no color, but the ONLY GPU I could find had just a smidge of RGB in the logo (MSI something 5060 ti) and I like it as a highlight.

"I don't know this person so I can't vouch for their credibility"

"Here's why you shouldn't trust that guy."

"Wow I can't believe you're happy that untrustworthy guy got doxxed. Here's a block :)"

I hate the internet sometimes my friend.

Shit they weren't merged?

I could have sworn this already happened

Most of the address and numbers they do have are off or old.

I moved through a lot of places in college and one of those 5 are usually what shows up.

Now that I think about it I did used to sign up for a bunch of religious mailing lists before I would leave an apartment because I thought it was funny.

He's also promoted the books of fascist talking heads like Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, and Steven Crowder through his book club.

There's a reason the Christ Church shooter yelled "Subscribe to PewDiePie" besides being a topical meme.

They didn't say they're poorly dressed. Just ugly

Pop OS

Lots of people were hyping it in 2019/2020 so I thought I'd give it a try as my first real Linux experience. It works great and has a Nvidia driver option when I need that. So I never really tried to switch.

Distro hoping never appealed to me, but I did try Fedora, Manjaro, Mint, Ubuntu, and Debian 12.

I use Kali for work and considered swapping to XFCE DE but pop is fine.

Europe is an amazing place.

Imagine living in a bedroom fit for a king

Yet playing on the world's first "Flat screen" monitor that your grandma gave you.

Such a beautiful place.

It's insane. I really want one for that reason, but ThinkPad with a ugreen 145 Watt battery bank gives me 16 hours of use. That's all waking hours.

It's hard to justify spending 3x as much on a single laptop just for that kind of battery life.

I have done a full 8 hours of work on my Dell Latitude 5440 before on battery. I put it in bat saver and it lasted me the whole work day.

But I re cognize something: why would I need to do that?

I sat a desk or my couch all day both of which had a convenient outlet. There was no point in doing that all on bat. Yeah it's impressive to have a crazy long battery life and is why I wanta MacBook for coffee shop coding days, but again, there's almost guaranteed to be convenient outlets and I own a 145Watt battery bank if needed. Thus my $150 ThinkPad E495 has been reaching 16+ hours of use without needing a wall wart.

Maybe your use case is different but mine where I'm certainly going to be stationary enough to use a plug or a battery bank means I can't justify the apple tax. Plenty of people have done this calculation hence why Apple still doesn't have an appreciable enterprise market share let alone a competitive one.

I haven't had a prime sub in 5 years. It's not been worth it in a while.

What good is the convenience of having everything on the same website if I have to determine if it's fake or not?
