I eagerly await the ascension.

As a subscriber to /c/insanepeoplefacebook it took me a couple paragraphs to figure out if you were serious.

Now I’ll finally know how many rocks to eat each day, even if I still won’t know how many Rs are in “strawberry.”

I just lie in every encrypted message I send so even when they crack it they won’t know the truth

We are wildly far away from having the technology to do that. A single genome wouldn’t provide the genetic diversity for a sustainable population. We would need hundreds or thousands of genomes for each species to ensure that non-related individuals could mate.

Yeah, super shocked he took a break from saying dumb regressive shit about gaming to say dumb regressive shit about Palestine.

I guess I just have to keep Windows 10 with a custom group policy that disables all updates either forever or until I learn Linux.

Linux gaming is getting to the point that I could consider the switch, but I hear scary stories about Nvidia drivers.

It’s amazing how good Microsoft is at making money relative to how bad they are at making products.

And so the cycle of hype and disappointment begins anew. The unending samsara of the Avatar fandom.

I’m sure it’s technically possible to reverse engineer the software, but there are also “dumb” chargers that require no software or app. They’re more reliable and cheaper, and there’s no risk of being locked out when a company stops supporting its software.

Me too. They had an old address I lived at five years ago. I’m shaking, I’m shaking.

Check with Intel, not whoever you bought the chip from. They extended the warranty and will replace bad chips. For most models I believe it was extended from 1 to 3 years.

I bet at first it seems like multiple consultancies, but the more they investigate, the more they realize it’s just minor variations on one consultancy copy-pasted around the map, and at a certain point, investigating each one just feels same-y and boring.

I’d be faster without autocorrect than with. I feel like it chooses the wrong word more often than not.

Honestly, I miss the real keyboard from my 2009 Blackberry. No substitute for haptic feedback.

There are a wide range of computer skills. Being able to interact with a word processor extremely efficiently is a highly valuable tech skill. Someone who knows about processor architecture but can’t touch type is arguably more tech-savvy but also less useful in most office jobs. So I’d say that the secretaries were indeed tech-savvy in a way that was useful for their positions.

That’s the sad truth of it. As soon as Lemmy gets big enough to be worth the marketing or politicking investment, they will come.
