• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC gamers spend 92% of their time on older games, oh and there are apparently 908 million of us now⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because crypto miners ruined gaming top end GPUs used to be $300 Max, now were looking in the thousands to have the best GPU for like 6 months, and you can’t buy a used one because it could be a clapped out card used in a crypto miner

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Firefox deletes promise to never sell personal data, asks users not to panic⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yup I’ll be sticking with Firefox forks… Unfortunately i have to keep a chrome install around because i can’t get alternative browsers to do redirects for PayPal

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Your boomer parents after giving you the most outdated job-seeking advice of your fucking life [Day 86]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes go into a business and have them look at your like you’ve got two heads while you’ve already been denied by an AI.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can we please make a viable (federated!) amazon alternative? I have an idea!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I would love a federated Amazon that works directly with producers to sell everything at cost without a middleman or fees.

  I use my phone a lot when I just don’t feel like starting up my computer

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US fab construction costs twice as much, takes twice as long as Taiwan⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Except these are the empty headed sensors that trigger the check engine light despite the engine running just fine

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US fab construction costs twice as much, takes twice as long as Taiwan⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Global foundries has a fab nearby, and all they produce are those chips for the old obsolete cars put out by Ford

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why doesn't the capitalist economy invest in cheap renewable energy?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is proof that capitalism sucks. You’re getting readily available electricity, and yet oil is more profitable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Teslas turn toxic as sales crash in Europe and the UK | EV sales in the region are growing, but not for Tesla⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would have rather seen an ARM Linux board for a more modest cost

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Bill to Effectively Kill Anime & Other Piracy in the U.S. Gets Backing by Netflix, Disney & Sony⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is dumb considering that these types of streaming sites are how I actually discover anime and become a fan enough that i want to purchase merch. I pay for Crunchy Roll, but sometimes I want to check out stuff from other services. If I had to rely sheerly on legal services I wouldn’t watch or discover half of what I did.

  Legal services are also pretty inferior. I wanted to watch A certain Scientific Railgun… Season 1 was dubbed, but season 2 on the service wasn’t… I literally had to track it down on some streaming site to get access to what I’m paying for.

  Exactly I thought this would be a purely functional truck at a good price, but for that much it is not worth it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Know thy enemy⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sadly many developing countries are further along in EV uptake because they have access to $4k EVs without tariffs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IFIXIT: Victory Is Sweet - We Can Now Fix McDonald’s Ice Cream Machines⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  McDonald’s franchisees being forced to buy one specific problematic ice cream machine is ducked up on it’s own. Let them choose what works.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How did we move from forums to Reddit, Facebook groups, and Discord?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hosting a forum costs money, and we ain’t got that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨More trustworthy than what's currently on the road⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Why? At least that one can heal itself.
