  Of course they’d say that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Working outside⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  The laptop is for use when a proper computer isn’t available.

  I recently installed a 49 inch screen, and using my laptop now feels even more like using a cell phone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some games take your time, but some take your feelings⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Took me a second…

  Probably because I’m not a console player.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am an American. I used to be proud of my country. Now it feels like a turd circling the drain. Is there anything going on behind the scene that America is actually doing good in?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Those things are easier to implement when all your buildings aren’t over 150 years old though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that Joseph Stalin created the Great Terror. He started killing people randomly including artists, generals, doctors, scientists, government officials. Everyone was terrified.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Are US Americans even aware of this, though?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that Joseph Stalin created the Great Terror. He started killing people randomly including artists, generals, doctors, scientists, government officials. Everyone was terrified.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s funny, because we weren’t there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's important to know where you stand in the hierarchy⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks for clearing that up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨journalist? what is your purpose?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Only one thing at a time!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cambodia aims to shut down all online scam centers within weeks⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re mostly run by the triads, so not much.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Firefox's beta feature "Smart Window" shared browsing and search history to AI models without prompting⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  “In case of browser crash, the male, white, cis user should submit a bug report”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s not a homelab, that’s a home server.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨rules⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Of course, that definitely calls for a video. Sound plays a major part!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Black oil clouds over Tehran⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Til There’s an Iranian George Clooney.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I was on social media before web browsers existed. I am Legion.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Trump was talking, so of course he was lying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Chinese carmaker, BYD, introduces new battery technology with 621-mile range, 620K-mile lifespan, 5-minute charge, and lower prices⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That should work. But it sucks when you’re in the third car.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Chinese carmaker, BYD, introduces new battery technology with 621-mile range, 620K-mile lifespan, 5-minute charge, and lower prices⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The main problem is having a charger with enough power to fill the battery that fast. But it’s more of an infrastructure problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨These RAM prices are out of hand⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The server racks must be looking so pretty with all those rgb components.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's all SO simple!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Half of shit is bacteria, roughly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox as a platform is officially dead⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I had to read it several times to understand what you meant, but I suspect that you’re right.

  Buying a full pc that will end up being potentially limited to gaming doesn’t really make sense. Valve has a solution that’s more integrated and probably better suited for most consumers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox as a platform is officially dead⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We have transferred your clone to 2005, please step into the incinerator.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's in a name⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess you can look at it from two sides (in two ways?)

  Interestingly, this also applies to many other things, such as so called “two way walls”.

  Of course they’d say that!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨https://www.androidauthority.com/desktop-mode-march-pixel-drop-3646069/⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So new, as in, it has been available forever, just not on google phones. But every other manufacturer has done it at one point or another in the last ten years if not more.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3214: Electric Vehicles⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The majority of people in cities aren’t helped by your setup.

  Looks like an old thumb drive to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Motorola confirms GrapheneOS support for a future phone, bringing over features⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think they pretty much all have it, they’re great shortcuts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Motorola confirms GrapheneOS support for a future phone, bringing over features⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I once bought a Motorola one phone because it would have quick and lengthy updates. Motorola certainly didn’t provide that.
  Other than that it was a decent phone.
