I’m just getting ahead of the curve. In 10 years everyone will be making videos about how windows 11 wasn’t really that bad like how they did with Vista a few years ago and are about 8 right now. I just want to be able to relate to the videos.

What pills? Asking for me. I have a small pp. Not small enough to be cute. But still

Thank God. I love seeing that place die

Usually I don’t tell people they smell like weed because I want them to think I’m judging them for smoking weed. I tell them because they smell like a skunk died wearing their clothes and I want them to do something about it.

Made by someone who wasn’t around back then. Getting games to run was just as if not more tedious than it is now.

That isn’t smart, it’s just profound.

I guess I’m chaotic neutral. I’ve never had enough money to buy two of the same monitor. All of my stuff is stuff I got either for free from school or for extremely cheap.

If you really want to know here’s the rundown

Galaxy Note 20 Ultra - 256gbs + 128gb micro SD

ThinkPad P43s - 512gbs + 128gb micro SD

PS4 - 500gbs

PS3 - 320gbs

Xbox Series S - 512gbs + 1tb external HDD

None of them except for the PS3 have enough space. Especially my laptop and the series s. I only have one game saved to my PS3 so it doesn’t need any more space but everything else could benefit from doubling or even tripling the storage space. Files are getting pretty big these days. Especially games. Black Ops 3 came out a long time ago and it’s over 100gbs.

Yeah, I always wanted to be a well known idiot. - Niko Bellic, after not wanting to appear on camera associated with a street justice man

You have to consider the 10 years that it took for 2019-2022 to happen.

What I really want to know is what you guys use for getting torrents for entire seasons of shows, or even the entire show at once. I’m not new to piracy, I’m just new to talking about it with people.

It’s a bit of self referencial humor. Like 15 years ago zuck did a live stream or something. On that Livestream he kept awkwardly talking about how much he loves sweet baby Ray’s bbq sauce.

I think he did that because knows how detached he comes off as. He was a weirdo before he became a billionaire, and being a part of a separated class of society only made that worse. He also knows how everyone on earth thinks that he’s a distrustful person. Plus he’s just clearly not comfortable being on camera.

It was basically a failed attempt to come off as relatable and down to earth by sharing something that he has a passion for. Which apparently is grilling. I get it, I like grilling too. But I won’t ever be tasked with trying to use that one interest I have as my entire public personality.

He tried something like that before. The reason he wears plain looking tshirts and pants is because it makes him come off as “like one of us” and that he remembers that he came from nothing like the rest of us. But then a few years ago it came out that the black Tshirts he wears costs like $400 each and so does the rest of his outfit.

Yeah that’s true. I’m glad that a big portion of all phones being released right now have oled screens, but it makes me miss the high quality ips LCD displays we used to get. Now you have the choice of a really sub par LCD, or an OLED/Super AMOLED display. I looked at the screen on my 2013 Nexus 7 and my Nvidia Shield K1 the other day and they hold up so so so well. It’s a shame I can’t just upgrade the internals. I’d kill for a Shield X1 or whatever chip will be going into the next switch.

I mean this post has 1200 upvotes. Considering most people don’t engage with the voting system that makes me think that there’s a decent amount of people here. At the very least it means there’s a lot of people here who engage with the community. More come every day. If this post were on Reddit, it would be on r/all right now. That’s not bad for a community with a fraction of the users.

I think that in 10 years this place will be doing alright. I think the growth that’s happened in the last few months won’t last, but I think that growth will still steadily happen. The reddexodus doesn’t happen every day but with most social media platforms shitting their geriatric pants more and more lately, I think a consistent flow of refugees will come here.

Kind of. An LCD display has one backlight which illuminates the entire screen with one brightness. So a black screen and a white screen will use the same amount of electricity if both screens are set to the same brightness, even though to us a white screen looks brighter. Using a dark theme won’t save any electricity, but it won’t use any more either.

Other display types use self illuminating pixels. Like OLEDs and plasma screens. So a screen which is mostly black uses a lot less electricity than a screen which is mostly any other color but black. Using a dark theme would use substantially less electricity.

Even a CRT would use less electricity if you switch to dark theme while still using one, because the cathode ray wouldn’t have to light up the black pixels.

Is it really that bad over there now? I haven’t been since RIF died

Reddit ruined it. Reddit just isn’t reddit without RIF. I don’t even wanna see what’s going on there anymore. From what I’ve heard it’s going downhill anyways.
