contacting my representatives is exactly as useful as writing a letter to santa

this is insane. why can’t we vote for them not to be able to do this? isn’t this a democracy?

i try to put in the disc, hit play, and just walk away so i miss all the garbage and the paragraphs warning me about prison time. kinda kills the mood

finally, some good fucking AI

imagine showing this post to someone in 1995

shit has gotten too bloated these days. i mean even in my head 8GB still sounds like ‘a lot’ of RAM and 16GB feels extravagant

lmao copyright isn’t important

if copyright were abolished worldwide today, we’d be in a happier place. people who buy things generally want to buy from the official source anyway, those official sources might even have to cut prices or (god forbid!) have to make their services better to compete in the market

maybe stop tracking people’s minute movements you fucking absolute creeps

employees spend an equal amount of time working (76% of a 9-to-5 shift).

that seems high. 6 hrs of pure work every day isn’t even sustainable

Some company heads are psychopaths, popular deep-seated belief confirms

why are lobbyists allowed i mean come on

disgusting. it’s like early TV where people thought it was low-rent crap and not worth saving.

it always seems impractical to store this stuff but then it goes away and you realize how much you’re missing.

honestly every single headline about how shitty streaming is getting, wantonly, willfully, feels like a hit of crack. nothing better than owning your own library.

the most insulting part of this is ‘people’ suddenly pretending like we love and always loved the office, when it’s been a fundamental symbol of stagnation and boredom and misery in culture ever since they became widespread. NO ONE would voluntary want to spend 5 days in a shitty building after a commute wearing clothes they don’t want to with bosses sniffing around their necks all day leaving maybe 4 hrs a day to yourself in your home. ‘top talent’ or not, everyone deserves to be able to work where they feel most comfortable.

i started using tree style tabs which was absolutely life changing. best computer memory i’ve had in years, it’s a far more logical and space-friendly way to keep lots of tabs open and still be able to read the titles. i feel like specifically grouping adds too much overhead - i have to think about which group to put each into, and think (even a little bit) about where to find it later

as creepy as this is i would honestly feel way more comfortable getting screened by a robot than humans

this shit is so obnoxious. it’s not sTeaLiNg to use a website somewhere else. that’s how the internet works

the 2010s was a mistake

i had one of the cheapest versions of this plan; it seems nice, but the cheap ones have such low limits that you’re always a bit paranoid to print too freely or joyfully. plus the bullshit how they software lock the ink if you don’t pay and would rather pay shipping / recycling back just so you can’t have it for ‘free’

almost you shouldn’t place cheeky little bets on if a company will succeed or not. bet on sports like a normal person. shareholders ruin every single company

so fucking sad. he got rung up on a bullshit technicality. broke my heart when i read about how his lawyers were begging the prosecution to tone down the bombast rhetoric and shock-and-awe proposed sentences because it was severely affecting his mental health. and yeah
