Its one of like 3 brands you can buy at phone stores in the US.
The other is Samsung and the last one is usually Motorola’s old people or discount phones.

No shit when it’s treated like the default option for most people.

We are so close to hunger games style of extravagant.
Everyone just has to look more than everyone else.

Yeah that about sums it up. I wonder why the Anarchists do it.

Male Loneliness epidemic is really bad and they are setting up a wall for anyone that tries to leave it behind to be excluded from their friend group.

Basically it’s a wall meant to stop men from reaching out and getting a girlfriend and keep yourself miserable and lonely so you can be further misogynistic and make it easier to continue to say and do restrictive policy on women without pushback.

TL:DR can’t have your addict get clean or they will stop buying what you are selling.

I mean I guess that is why they are offensive words. They are bad to use even if you know they sound so good to shout. Otherwise they would just be fun shout words like “purple nurple!”.

Lemmy has a weird issue with being super restrictive of ableist language, beyond reasonable, in some spaces and completely ambivalent in others.

I had someone say I was as useless as accessibility kitchen items, which mostly just means I’m extremely useful to specific people and viewed as a joke by intolerant people who don’t care about others…

Weirdly good compliment. Really telling in the idiot using it.

Yeah, that or disrealization.

I honestly thing the absolute buginess and crazy run and gun play style of the battlefield games of the past keeps me as a better player than new players who insist on trying to fight like it is a real war simulator. Grenade launchers and beating people with the melee still work.

Americans knew who he was, witnessed the same January 6th I did, and elected to restore that guy to office

He’s just so passionate! Him and his followers were just upset he lost because he was doing so good, and he gave up eventually. Don’t you want a passionate president rather than a sleepy one? Plus he will be hard on all the immigrants who must be responsible for me struggling to find a job and he will negotiate prices down, haven’t you heard? He’s a good negotiator he has a whole book and everything. Has to be better than Biden and his random girl telling me that everything is fine and they won’t do anything to help me.

I get being in disbelief, and being upset but people don’t know what they don’t know and it isn’t that shocking to see how they came to the conclusions that it HAD to be better.
Humans, while very clever, are emotionally dumb as fuck.

Can.

I have all of top gear for like 200GB. It doesn’t have to. We don’t have to Overfill extra large shows.

Yeah. I’m just holding the line happily of what you can get away with minimally since I used to use a cell phone plan and a USB adapter for micro sd cards. But that was for sharing movies with people that didn’t have internet for months and it was basically currency.

You are correct that server setups are shockingly cheap especially when compared to any apple product ever.

less than what apple will charge you for a 2tb ssd

Well that’s like saying going to 7/11 is cheaper than going to the moon. Apple charges multiple hundreds of dollars for a watch band, and $80 for a holder for their pen.
If you just want to be able to watch stuff and have some in storage to watch later less will do you than getting half a rent payment payment in hard drives.

So I have found that I use a folder everything new goes into and then if it’s worth keeping or I finally get the whole season it gets moved and properly organized into a permanent folder. Its been really good for keeping the stuff that isn’t worth it quarantined to be deleted.

Some shows and movies aren’t worth the hard drive space.

Yeah do you guys not see that recommending $700 dollars just for hard drives might be my point about having to much money? That’s a huge jump up from an external drive and a torrent client.

That cost is 6 years of streaming services.
At this point the hoarding is just the hobby instead of the media.

I literally just had 2 4TB external hard drives that had more than enough movies and TV shows with anyone I would trade with.

I don’t think we all need every show ever.

So firstly, some fun trivia. Did you know that 720p is still considered HD? High quality rip is very subjective. Secondly I have 4k movies at like 16-20GB you are going like fully uncompressed.

But congrats I guess on the upgrade

Ok first of all you people have too much money to spend on hard drives.

Secondly, it’s not curated if you are downloading everything ever.
I’ve got 8tb full of a 12tb raid array and that already feels like enough for a lifetime.

Its fun that they admit that they don’t know the math behind why it picks the paths it does.

We are essentially having to learn our world all over again and these tools that can recognize patterns are gonna be helpful for that but it will still be on humans to figure out the why

Yeah but it’s cool cause some rich white guy taught the computer to be racist for him, so you can’t complain.

I am suspecting the price to knock me back a little and I also suspect I will still consider it far longer than my wallet will be happy about
