For $1000, I wonder if someone could rig together a very shitty way of making low quality anvils out of garbage like aluminum or very shitty steel/cast iron and pass it off as a “real anvil” that I found in the dump or something.
That would be a lot of work of course but in today’s economy and job market, a huge amount of effort just to get $1000 isn’t necessarily a waste of time especially if you can do it multiple times before they find out.
We are totally screwed because now they’re going to put these in cheap laptops and peddle them to the elderly and the non-technically inclined who don’t know any better. Then, us tech people have to deal with “why is my Windows 11 pentium 3 pc so goddamned slow”
If you make 90% the area of your city dedicated to roads leaving only 10% buildings, you can barely just get traffic under control trust me. Just like in real life.
But they make the z80 and they’re so proud of the shitty 8 bit processor they made 50 years ago so they’re forcing people to use it and pay modern prices for it. They eventually made an ez80 which is like the z80 but better in some ways and it sounds impressive but if you ever try to design a homebrew computer out of one, you’ll find that it’s not very worthwhile due to the lack of a external wait state insertion pin and if you want to build something better than a z80 or 6502 homebrew, there are better choices than an ez80.
Water is made out of grape juice. The only reason water appears clear sometimes is because someone keeps putting clear food coloring into the grape juice.
Having problems with games sometimes is better than having less problems with games at the cost of your system being bloated, slow and designed in such a way that when it breaks you can’t do anything about it besides sfc /scannow and when that doesn’t work as usual, a complete os reinstall. Linux saves me time but that’s only because it’s possible to have the skill to fix all the random issues you run into, unlike with Windows.
