Often the people that buy those tiers of computers don’t know enough about memory to know how limited they’d be.

Prions are absolutely wild. There is no cure, no “vaccine” - not that that would even be possible because they’re not viruses, bacteria, or even living things from outside your body. They’re just a faulty version of something that already exists in your system and they make your body self-destruct.

Now is a great time to invest some time and effort into offline hobbies, whether they be on your computer or otherwise. Limiting or eliminating your time online these days is just a straight net gain for your mental health, especially if you can fill that gap with some other fulfilling activity.

My flesh is temporary but these tits are eternal.

Alec out there fighting the good fight for us.

Not that I’d ever buy it, but I’m looking forward to the price tag so I can have a good laugh.

Microsoft has gone all-in on AI to the detriment of basically every other aspect of their business. They are in deep deep shit when the bubble finally pops.

I remember when this garbage used to be called malware.

So glad I switched email and calender services years ago.

“Organised crime”

We can add this to the extensive list of times that we’ve assumed Russia’s military capabilities only for them to turn out to be wet farts.

Tea.

That smell of a freshly opened container of black tea leaves is lovely.

Depends entirely on the volume and time spent at that volume.

Just using headphones in general? No.

Nintendo and Sega’s IP. I did not grow up with them and have never seen the appeal or hype around them.

Been with Posteo for years now. They’re very solid.

Bitwarden.

I’m with Posteo.

I am open to the idea of paying for quality services that put the customer first. Hell, I pay for my email and have done so for years.

But Kagi has always squicked me out a bit. Some of their business practices over the years have been rather questionable, especially their push into AI which is exactly the sort of thing someone looking at Kagi would probably want to avoid. They are also very expensive. They’re one of those services that just assumes everyone is American so they just give a $ cost and don’t specify beyond that, so I’m going to assume their prices are in USD which means a plan for my dad and myself is $21CAD a month. That absurdly overpriced for a search engine subscription.

To put that into perspective: A YouTube premium family plan covers up to 6 accounts and is the same price and includes unlimited video and music streaming. Thoughts about YouTube aside and looking at this from a pure value perspective, paying that same price just for a search engine is a godawful shit deal. Do you know what my email costs per month? $1.25CAD

They need lifetimes in prison for treason and domestic terrorism.

The 1080p for premium users is garbage too. Youtube’s video quality in general is shockingly poor. If there is even a slight amount of noisy movement on screen (foliage, confetti, rain, snow, etc) the the video can literally become unwatchable.
