I’m proud of my stretch marks.

My brain likes to hallucinates the bump map textures from the Xbox 360 era and hard line non pixelated shadows.
- Comment on Snapdragon X1 Elite Linux laptop cancelled due to performance concerns — Linux PC maker says Qualcomm CPU is ‘less suitable for Linux than expected’ 1 week ago:
As someone who used to have a Windows on Arm device. It was Hell. Basically anything that isn’t Lenovo or from Microsoft will mean it’ll eventually brick itself unless you steal drivers from other laptops. You also cannot reinstall the operating system because most of these nuggets have no device tree files in the firmware of the machine minus a few lenovo thinkpads. So that means when you try to reinstall windows there is a high likelihood your touchpad and keyboard and USB ports don’t work. I literally snapped the motherboard on my poor Samsung Galaxy Book Go in half over it suddenly bricking itself.
Anyway if you want a decent windows on arm laptop buy lenovo and replace the storage. They have replacable nvmes usually. Also don’t get the 8 gigabytes of ram versions you literally will have programs just refuse or just force close themselves out of existence. You will literally have to debloat windows upto even removing Windows Defender and stopping most background services and disabling sysmain because it’s broken. You’d also have to disable certain things in Windows defender like memory protection if you want things to work right.
- Comment on If one were given the option to order a Stupid Cat or a Smart Cat, the vast majority would pick the Stupid Cat despite Stupid being bad. 1 week ago:
I have a very smart cat but he uses that intelligence to uh get my attention.
He’ll groom himself in a mirror only to look at me in the mirror and be excited when he sees me when he turns around to come at me.
He also likes to find ways to get my attention like getting in things or knocking stuff over or scratching things or sitting on papers or my laptop or things. If I have a pillow in my lap or my laptop he will also find every possible solution to get as close to me as humanly possible. He is also very careful about not scratching me when he is on me or I pick him up.
He gets so annoyed and angry when I have a laptop or like block his approach in some way like just walking around or standing. Wherein he starts to run around and meow softly at me. Having zoomies and hiding in drawers or around corners when I’m walking around to just attack me with his softpaws to get my attention.
I love him a lot.
- Comment on Breaking: Google is easing up on Android's new sideloading restrictions! 2 weeks ago:
You know it’s kinda funny that I can’t even run the MC Donalds app without doing some fuckery. But my banking app will throw a hissy fit if I try to sign into my account without a rooted or custom ROMed phone because that’s how they know it’s me apparently. Also shame that my banking app stopped supporting Android 8.0 a few years back. I miss my LG V20.

So I just read what they are going to do and this article is just clickbait. Basically they still want you to dox yourself but it’ll still work like iOS Test Pilot. Google is still full of shit and lies but hey at least you don’t have to pay them money until enough users download your app if you want more.

Vascular Dementia is one hell of a trip and Trump won’t survive the next two years since it seems like he is in the middle symptoms of it. Guy shits in a diaper and takes hormones and uppers but that doesn’t stop his veins from being clogged up from the decades of MC Donalds he consumed. So that means random swelling and easy brusining especially to parts of the body like limbs and particularly the feet in the case of vascular dementia where they get swollen constantly. His brain also doesn’t get enough oxygen as well but that doesn’t mean it’s being clogged up in the traditional dementia way. It’s literally being starved of oxygen and is slowly killing him because his arteries are fucked.
The point I’m trying to make here. Don’t eat like Trump. Even if your family doesn’t have a history of Dementia. Vascular Dementia will fuck you up later in life.
- Comment on Palantir CEO Says a Surveillance State Is Preferable to China Winning the AI Race 3 weeks ago:
At least I’m stateless! So, I’m not in their database. Though they’ll probably would’ve already deported me at this rate if my skin color wasn’t white. That and I don’t even have social media at all that can get me arrested or barred from a job which is already happening in real life in this hell hole of a world.
Honestly we are already in the surveillance state as well. Ring cameras are connected to Flock. There are also cheap Flock cameras popping up everywhere with solar panels that almost no one ever wanted or voted for as well. People are already getting arrested for crimes they didn’t commit and even instantly arrested for just having a smartphone with Google Maps (BTW this goes for any shitty android device running Google Play services even with third party Maps applications) near a crime scene. Remember America is the country that arrests you first and asks questions later.
If you wanna truly get out of the system. Go to some private property you’ll never get the chance to own and live in the middle of bumfuck nowhere. With a bunch of movies and tvs shows and games and music and podcasts. Become self reliant on nature and live off the grid. If you need groceries don’t take a smartphone. But rather use dedicated devices for everything like a physical GPS and an MP3 player for like background noise or something to that affair. Bring a feature phone and curtail saying anything illegal over SMS and VOLTE which is unencrypted. Save that shit for like the people on session who you talk to and avoid messaging apps that want your phone number.
You know become a Tech Linux Youtuber. But like not a facist and not a Youtuber. Or the average 4chan /g/ guy they want to be on that website. Remember to also wear your tinfoil hat and that you also cannot stop the burgeoisie from stomping on your face forever. You still need to work and pay property taxes at least! Lest you have the government come check up on you and shoot up where you live and bomb your house which is also something we do here in America especially to paranoid types. Private property is a lie and you never owned anything as well.

5 I remember liking dot matrix screen and browsing bit rushed WAP sites on it. Also being annoyed about having to activate the phone before I could use it.

I would get a fork and a knife and just start eating by cutting little pieces of bread from the bun and onto my fork alongside everything else.

Its funny that the Wii alone can play all the n64 and GameCube games out there. But that requires effort and this is way funnier in my opinion. Thank you for posting this OP.
