I am gonna go against the circlejerk here and publicly admit that I have a macbook pro, daddy aint rich either, I wanted something that would last and works well, it’s both environmental and ux based decision for me, so it was either macbook or framework, since framework doesn’t sell in my country It’s an easy decision.
Also it’s an os most people want it to just work, one of the main reasons why iOS and MacOs are popular, until there is a linux flavor like mac is made and then it’s distributed as the default os, the year of the linux desktop will never come
I pirate because it’s more convenient, surprisingly I don’t pirate games and music because of steam and spotify, steam is just convenient, so is spotify it’s more convenient than fucking around with finding music you like
movies/tv shows it’s more convenient to have my own plex server
there was that meme about adding everything to one playlist a few days back, that’s mel, lol, I don’t even know thr number of songs on the Playlist, it’s 112 hours long at the moment.
Another really good Video by a different Channel, some more news
A Brief Look at Jordan Peterson - 2h 55m - A methodical, step by step dismantlement of the idea that Jordan Peterson is anything else than a Right Winger and a moron.
this is not a left vs right issue, if you had actually bothered to watch the video you’d know that “diet nazis” were glad to take Lindsay Ellis down.
in fact right-wing, fascists will gladly push cancel culture themselves, they mostly don’t care, but it’s another form of power they can abuse.
You have to agree with all their opinions. Identify with all their beliefs, or you’re a nazi.
maybe on the internet, but then you can go outside and touch grass and realize that that shit doesn’t matter.
Boom. She’s a bigoted, nazi transphobe.
I mean, she is a transphobe, she is not just disagreeing with that stuff, she is actively pushing her own shit that’s labelled as TERF. She is donating too.
even before Musk Twitter was a shithole,I thought the cancel culture was just fascist right wingers complaining for not being able to be racist online,then they cancelled one of my favorite youtube creators Lindsay Ellis, she made a video about it it’s fucked up youtu.be/C7aWz8q_IM4?si=eGC5Cx2_UP7bTQh6
Well we use cards here, mostly debit, if you try to pay for something or withdraw that’s over what you have the transaction simply fails.
The US system is like living in cavemen times.
if you make a transaction for example through online banking and you don’t have the money needed, it will sit there for a while waiting for money to arrive then it gets cancelled if money doesn’t arrive in time.
I don’t have a checkbook since I am not from the US, also stop woth the bootkicking/victim blaming, they literally did shit like if you had some small charges that should have been fine, then you had a bigger charge that put you over the limit, then they processed the big one first (even though it was the last) then processed the small ones after and then they didn’t charge one overdraft fee, but multiple.
also there is the obvious case of the 2008 financial crisis, make some bootlicker argument for that, mate
you can google and fine some pretty fucked up shit the US banks do to the most vulnerable people, like changing the order the transactions are processed in so that they can hit people with overdraft fees.
too bad I don’t drink anymore, well actually I drank this Saturday while celebrating a friend’s birthday but I literally can’t remember when I drank before that, probably like my birthday in May.
I would recommend buying some higher quality socks, I have started ordering Darn tough and they are holding up well, I hit 10K steps everyday and not a single one has had any indication of anything like this happening yet. meanwhile I would have gone through a few set of cheap socks.
