Next he's gonna say he's too cool for the futa schoolgirl cum sock, smh

Yeah, to be completely honest, the one place where you actually could trust this kind of information is on your own local (and ideally libre-oriented) OS, never leaving your device and instead obfuscated through an API that's exposed to whatever services need to do an age check, with the potential for additional security impositions or other concessions from data requesters due to the leverage of still having your data controlled by you. This is the bonus FOSS part where we get a say on how we want our data to be exposed on our libre systems. Other users aren't so lucky and don't get to have any voice on how this implementation happens, so we should probably participate in the discourse for those PRs rather than condemn them point blank.

Boring is good indeed. I'm running Bazzite on both my gaming desktop as well as my work laptop (webdev). The only reason I think about Bazzite at all is because I see it mentioned everywhere and feel the need to share my experience. Otherwise, it really is out of sight, out of mind.

I also went with 16 drives, but they were 20TB each. OP, if you don't already have those 4tb drives, reconsider the amount and sizes. 4tb can't be the price sweet spot for HDDs...

Nothing would make me happier than not having to use WhatsApp. Instead, I had to bend over backwards to get WhatsApp on a separate device entirely after they flagged and banned my account (multiple times over the course of a month) for random reasons (hackers trying to hack my account for 6 months straight is my guess as to why I got flagged) and wouldn't let me log back in with my GrapheneOS phone, and if I ever forget to check that other phone for more than 2 weeks, I get logged out of all my companion devices and lose all my stickers and some recent chat history.

I floated the idea to my contacts of possibly not being able to come back to WhatsApp, they all essentially said I should just buy a new phone (have had my pixel for like a year) and get a new phone number (have had my number for 20 years). My own family scoffed at the idea of using something other than WhatsApp at all to talk to me.

So yeah. Fuck WhatsApp, absolutely fuuuuuuuck Meta, but we're all literally doing the best we can given the situation we're in.

The first season was groundbreaking at the time, but quickly became cringe in hindsight from its popularity and the romanticization of certain events. Later seasons, which weren't as immediately popular for spoiler reasons, get more and more serious and become more cinematically rewarding for the viewer.

If you can get past the first season, it gets a lot better. The last season is honestly some of the best pieces of television content I've ever seen.

Its a victim of its time. There is a decent amount of filler and some episodes have big inconsistencies at one point due to being released out of order since they were filler content, but the overarching quality of the show, and watching it slowly move away from monster/mystery of the week to something that rewarded its fans in multiple intentional and sometimes subtle ways, it truly felt.... And still feels.... Like something deeply special and really worth recommending, even if you do end up having to work through a decent amount of filler in the first seasons.

I would absolutely think twice or thrice about recommending GoT. In fact, I've already recommended some friends to not watch it. Some amazing episodes, perhaps some of the best scenes ever seen on TV, and by far the most upsetting, spit-in-the-face, negligent final season from any show I've ever seen. Umbrella Academy wishes it had as bad an ending as GoT, if only for the infamy.

Anyway 3 Body Problem looks really promising and I'm sure the creators, whoever they are, will absolutely nail it.............

Sony XM5 earbuds. The most annoying part of them is their feature that connects to multiple devices at once, so I end up fighting my phone (Graphene) or gaming PC (Bazzite) midway through a business call on my work laptop (believe it or not, also Bazzite).

So yeah, their only problem is they work with everything and can prioritize sounds from other devices mid-call. You can just not connect them to everything at the same time, or turn off Bluetooth on the phone n stuff while not in use.

I'm pretty sure you can just buy any device like that (so not Razer, and generally not gaming) and it'll just work on Linux. Gaming stuff in general usually has a hard time working even on Windows due to absolute dog-shit firmware & software implementations.

You're zensanto. LadyMeow is LadyMeow. OP, in my context, is LadyMeow, not you. You're just being autistic for no good reason.

To quote OP:

There are lots of much better electric cars if that’s what you want

Or is this too difficult for you to follow?

OP literally said there's much better deals anyways. You focused entirely on the financial aspect of the comment, when that was never what was being discussed. Its perfectly fine for people to, in addition to thinking about good or bad deals, think about the moral implications of their purchases. At no point did they say or imply that morality was the only or primary basis for a purchase regardless of value proposition.

Edit: don't assume I'm a fucking gringo, ew

Rich coming from the person trying to justify Tesla cars as not a ripoff when they're some of the worst shit to come out of North America in the past few decades, equipped with a ripoff self-driving technology that doesn't work even though it was promised to be coming as a fully fledged feature a decade ago, and which has been getting charged as a complete feature for just as long.

Maybe, just maybe, the ultra-billionaire fascist asshole who's hoarding wealth by inflating his companies' stock prices doesn't have his costumer's best interests in mind. I know, shocking, moral values kinda correlate with whether you're getting ripped off or not, its a crazy concept, and one that the MAGA folks so desperately think they understand but they sorely don't.
