Ah yes… forever and again, the siren song of children being used as an excuse for draconian, rights eroding legislation… its amazing how much responsibility parents have shirked to the state as they replace babysitters with cellphones and tablets.

Well, that works…but it is certainly bad design. Blah.
k…?
Exactly.
Be fully of despair and you ahve no where to go but up.
be full of hope and you have no where to go but down.
if they announce a 7700xt thats cheaper than what I just paid for my 6700xt, I dont know if I’m going to maintain my rationality.
and just to be clear, I want the midrange cards like x7xx to be more affordable, Just annoyed that this announcement came after giving up and buying a new card.
I just bought a 6700xt.
Which means you are all welcome for my heroic sacrifice that has made them announce new cards.
So, dumb question, but that picture is tiny and I cant read it.
and its not clickable so i can view a bigger version.
and if I zoom the browser in, the image stays the same size.
how is everyone else reading this damn thing?
Yep.
TVs, Fridges, Toilets, Dishwashers, Clothes Washers/Dryers, Thermostats, and a whole range of other things do not, and will never need, access to the internet.
By giving them access to the internet, you are just lighting a fuse and waiting for the bomb to go off. Maybe that bomb is personal banking details, maybe that bomb is financial in that someone cranks your AC up to 150 when you are gone for a week and come home to house full of heat damage and melt, or maybe that bomb is a 3d printer that turned on, malfunctioned, and burned your house down.
IoT is stupid.
Which, as you may note by your own word choice, isnt “making things up”
Its speculation based on new information.
He types all this out, but has the audacity to call me the dense one.
I swear to god, these linus fart huffers…
he said he supported unions, but doesnt want a union at his business.
he said we should call out bad companies, until its his company thats being called out.
Says he cares about employees, but ignores sexual harassment, abuse, and overworks them beyond capacity.
He says a lot of shit, until hes on the receiving end of it.
Wondering why previous employees left after the workplace is revealed to be a toxic, abusive shithole is not making things up.
Makes you wonder about Maxine leaving now.
Yep, he got caught with his manipulative word play this time by GN, but it also gives context for everything he’s said in the past and puts new light on them, because this isnt something people just wake up and decide to do one day. Its something they do their entire life.
in one of the WAN shows he went on a big handwringing tirade about how “unions means I’m a failure as an employer” with undertones of “You wouldnt want to make me a failure by unionizing, right?”
Just imagine how bad it is, behind closed doors and with the Cameras off, considering what the employees said in that LTT employee opinion video on camera, that GN repeatedly referenced, that they were over worked and didnt have time to make anything right.
And this is why Lienus hates unions so much, cause it would have held him and his company accountable for the nasty, abusive shit they do behind the scenes.
Yep, Get those for like 2 bucks at goodwill. Hell, even entire box sets.
Almost got the entire collectors edition band of brothers box set for 2 bucks at goodwill once… only reason I didnt is cause it was missing like 3 of the disks, and I didnt want to spend the rest of my life trying to hunt those 3 down.
Streaming has become cable 2.0.
It was wonderful when everything was on one, maybe two providers. Could watch everything in a very easy, very affordable way.
But everyone saw that, went “I know, I want that money!” and spent billions building their own individual infrastructures so make their own streaming services, and right around we go right back to the absolute worst days of cable and bullshit.
Only thing stopping me from saying fuck it and downloading shit I want to watch, is the fact that I no longer know what the good sites are… since I havent pirated since the heyday of the bay.
This.
Its sad the amount of people that cant make this logical baby step.
