The only person you will hear that from is turnip.
I do wish she had been more outspoken, but her actions spoke loud enough. Dolly has always a force for good and compassion, and the things she supported were incompatible with the hate that so many politicians dedicate themselves to.
Mine has turned every conversation into a political fight and now refuses to speak with me unless I agree with their prejudices and medical quackery.
I miss my Nokia 8210. I had a case for it that slid open like the one at the start of the matrix. Dropped it in a puddle one night, pulled it out the next morning, dried it off and it kept working just fine. Had no waterproof rating.
I waded into a pool with my supposedly waterproof iPhone in my pocket by accident and it immediately died.
Because the republicans have control over all three branches, and the party has dedicated itself to authoritarian rule under that orange asshole.
This is the government that they have been wanting for my entire life. This stupid fucking country decided to finally gift it to them.
Allen Pan still puts out something amusing once in a while.
I miss the days of 3 minutes of insanity. Now every video is 25 minutes, and it’s all personality driven. It’s turned into regular TV.
We need a classic YouTube type site back again where people share shit for the fun of sharing. Monetization killed the platform.
Well said.
Ultimately it’s a capitalism problem, it makes the value proposition drift towards addiction in every single case.
I don’t know, I think the destructive potential makes up for any lack of imagination. StyroPyro is hands down my favorite YouTuber.
Man what an incredible trip that channel was.
Back in the day there was a whole slew of crackpots (in the best way). There was another who took the washing machine crown from PhotonicInduction, went by the name Aussie50. Used to love his content but he very sadly passed away quite some time ago (I won’t go into details out of respect).
These days the crazy backyard scientist vibe on YouTube has nearly dried up. So glad we still have StyroPyro.
I mean, mine is a dumpster dive. It’s an old small form factor office pc. Tore out the guts and stuck them in a silver stone case with a SATA backplane and loaded it up with refurb hard drives.
Previous iteration was a broken g5 tower case I got for free, hacked with an old server motherboard that had been decommissioned at work.
So, definitely spent money on it with the additions, but all my home servers have started out with free spare parts.
Oh, I do of course run Debian.
I’m already kicking myself for buying into them in the first place. Fuck cameras, I’m going back to wired headphones. My $20 IEMs sound better than my AirPod pros, without all the fancy over processing.
I don’t know man, I’m a fairly old person and I’m constantly surrounded by people who seem unable to think without it.
Best music discovery I’ve had was a thread on the something awful forums maybe 2 decades ago. People would post their favorites or ones they wanted similar artists to, and folks would chime in with suggestions. I discovered so much music in that thread, stuff that has become my core favorites. I learned about Chromeo in that thread (back when Needy Girl was new) and they have been in my top 5 or 10 ever since.
I do enjoy the Apple Music suggestions, but finding new is so much slower and more hit or miss.
There should be a site for community driven music suggestions similar to that old thread. Especially nowadays when so much is independent and obscure.4
I’d quit my job, sell my house, get a box in the middle of nowhere and work at a gas station the rest of my life. I’ve got kids though, and a wife, they are more important than me so my mental health gets ignored for now. Maybe once these kids are grown…
What drives me up a fucking wall these days is how people will use AI to make a more “professional” message, then due to it’s verbosity it needs an AI to summarize on the receiving end.
Sure seems like it. Not like these same algorithmic salary calculations will be used for the C-Suite.
Yet more evidence for my “never trust a self described libertarian” stance. Hasn’t failed me yet.
I felt the same way until my wife talked me into one. We use it almost every day now (it’s great for veggies, so much faster than my convection oven). I bought a cheapish one and am now regretting it since it’s broken and become uncleanably messy. So this is a well timed thread, since I’m looking for a new one.
Omg, I saw that episode when it was first broadcast. My buddy and I laughed so goddamned hard at that scene. Upvote for you!
Oh, agreed. They got to him, he rolled over. Instantly, once they gave him a taste of the Epstein class lifestyle.
Hegseth / Lindell. A true dream ticket if there ever was one.
