Yeah, it’s fine for now. If you’re doing anything more than the absolute basic, you’ll need 16+ now (on Win 11). Somewhat related, but my work computer was stuck, slow, and crashing at 99% utilization on 8GB until I added a card (my money). Now it stays around 85% on 16GB.

& also you probably know to spec it appropriately; most slow laptops I see have 8 gigs ram.

I guess I could install Ventoy on the raspberry Pi’s SD card, but I prefer it to be bare, since the idea is to keep it simple.

Primary every democrat.

I’ve been stuck deciding between getting the 2.8k screen and upgrading to the larger 16 laptop. I stopped using my desktop last year entirely and so now I’m trying to figure out whether I should go with the larger laptop since it’s the only thing I use now.

I’m always wondering is how I became an independent thinker. I have a hard time understanding how so many people are so gullible

You may not think this way, but I’ll comment just in case: Don’t fall into the trap of thinking you are too smart to fall for a lie. The smartest people in the world have blind spots, and only the blind think they have none.

Note that established, accepted scientific theories often fall into the “fact” category.

For example the Theory of Gravity.

+1 on wildcard addresses. Any 10 min mail site is also great for anything unimportant.

It’s important in the sense that if it’s “just gang shit” then people think it’s less random, and so they have some agency to avoid it, which makes it less scary. They’re also not in social groups even close to gangs, so it’s not something that would ever happen to them.

Firefox WAS Netscape. Netscape was open sourced, rewritten, and released as Firebird (in reference to a phoenix’s rise from Netscape’s ashes). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Mozilla_Application_Suite

Yay! Been waiting patiently.

I just had to book a flight.

Frontier forces you to download an app now to check in (there is a well hidden option to do it on web, but the page never loads on laptop nor mobile in multiple browsers).

I tried to rent a parking spot, and 2/4 places would not load quotes at all (again web and mobile and multiple browsers). I probably would’ve used one of the two that didn’t load if their sites had worked. Their loss I guess.

I’d just like it to not feel like each interaction I have with technology, and I guess by extension the world, is becoming increasingly adversarial. The tech itself seems to keep getting better though.

Also, horse is bigger/more visible to cars, and maybe could be in the street. So you may not have to wait on traffic crossings as much depending on the area.

I still choose e-bike because poo, but what a looney idea, I love it.

Amazing to see Hot Wheels change from gas to hybrid to EV over the years.

Idk if you can transfer likes comments and posts, but you can go to your old account from a new one and star everything with the new account pretty easily. So that at least can transfer.
