Its actually the "went to church, talented white folk there", posted by "fren", somehow they learned random old dude was "88" which has no bearing on the story and isn't usually something that comes up in short conversations, and the "I was like before I did these things"

It gives recruitment/fishing vibes to me. If 100 people read it and 99 see ADHD and move on, but 1 person asks them how they could also feel good about themselves, boom, one more Nazi recruit. That's how dog whistles work. You toss an innocuous thing like "88" in your story, it let's those in the know that you're part of the team and you're on the job.

This is giving me racist dog-whistle vibes.

Yeah, but you can't get a new one at this price. You'd be pushing getting a used one with this range on the battery at this price.

I can forgive the ram decision, they're producing laptops that can be upgraded in the future to keep them from becoming waste, not upgraded using old equipment now.

I actually do have 2230 ssds laying around. I bought a few used computers on eBay to use as servers that had 128gb versions of these little shits in them that I had assumed were 2.5" not m.2. Wouldn't use them in a new laptop for me, but it's plenty enough for a school laptop or device that isn't storing data on that particular drive.

I'm not going to rag on them for going with this form factor, because they are very conscious about their designs, but it isn't like it's hard to accommodate a range of m.2 sizes. You just need a little hole you can screw the mounting...screw into. Like, maybe you can't fit a 2280 in there, but from what I've seen 2242 is more common than 2230.

I'm pretty sure Putin played his narcissistic ass like a fiddle in the attempt to destabilize the US in order to win in Ukraine, and it's paid off so much more than he ever dreamed.

I'm actually pretty down with that that. We should be able and ready to produce whatever we need in case another country does what trump is doing or something happens that would prevent trade. If China attacks Taiwan, we should be able to produce our own chips. We should be able to function with as little dependence on other countries as possible.

In no way do tariffs fix that. You invest in yourself, slapping your friends because they're better than you at something is really fucking stupid.

My Xperia z3c from 2014 would be perfectly fine to use right now if Google didn't absolutely bloat the crap out of their products and it had an easily replaceable battery. If companies would just support their products for longer or release the sources when it's out of support i probably would have skipped several phone upgrades. But that's probably exactly why they don't.

Yeah, that's what they said, 20 years or so ago
