A US news echo chamber at the whims of whatever they think will appease trump is going to be horrifying…

IT support everywhere sigh in satisfaction

Probably good enough for police to half ass their way into a warrant?

I just use an app on my phone. Being able to set a timer with multiple stages is important to me for baking (I can make a custom timer that pauses at each stage of rising).

If i just need a quick timer, the basic clock app works for me.

Ehh, plant a tree sapling over it and nobody will find it. Trees will devour a carcass for it’s nutrients.

By the time John deere can even get them a replacement or repair, it’s too late and their harvest may just be fucked

What the actual fuck, microsoft?

If anything, i respect people wearing suits and ties less than people wearing business casual.

Password management is the one thing i don’t plan to self-host, on the grounds of not putting all my eggs in one basket. If something goes wrong and all my shit is fried or destroyed, I don’t want to also fuck around with account recovery for my entire digital existence.

Plus, if something is breached, im more likely to hear news about Bitwarden than I am about compromised server and/or client versions in a timeframe to actually be able to react to it.

Government backdoors are super secure and they’re totally the only ones who can access guys we swear!

definitely wont have an always online requirement that will fuck you over in a busy place like say, an airport, either

I definitely do like raytracing, sadly. I’m more interested in graphics and immersion in a setting/story in a game than competitiveness or ultra-high FPS. Water reflections and mirrors just look absolutely gorgeous to me.

I’m definitely strongly considering AMD regardless for my next build, as I’d like to switch to Linux fully at some point.

I feel like people concerned about the expense of a new computer aren’t generally going to look at Macs, but I’m not too familiar with their longevity/support; is it a good length of time?

I just want to get a graphics card for less than the rest of a rig combined… shits ridiculous, and AMD doesn’t seem to be even trying to compete anymore

“Abrupt” and “current” are pretty generous for windows 10 tbh. This has been a known deadline for several years at this point, and windows 11 has been out since 2021.

Absolutely fuck microsoft with a cactus, but this is hardly new or surprising at this point.

You quickly can skim text for relevance to your needs/situation, hard to do that with a video.

I blocked them, they seem to have a serious boot licking fetish.

Right! Forgot about that aspect of Tape drives. Haven’t messed with them before personally, so TIL 😁

Not really? Storage isn’t really much of a limiter, tape drives are huge. High res is more about the camera AFAIK, high res but low refresh rate(frame rate?) probably doesn’t have much of a transfer speed issue to necessitate SSD speeds.

Exactly what I was thinking about.
