I more meant now they’re not being made because Micron recently killed the Crucial brand to focus supply towards data center customers

TBF that is a crucial ram stick in the picture, those are rare shinies now

You know what’s really stupid about this

Notepad existed for decades, resisting the general trend of Microsoft software, and it continued to do one thing, and do it well (for the purposes of this argument, let’s not get started on line endings)

If someone wanted to do more than just view text files, there was wordpad, a stripped down word processor, that would have been the perfect application to add support for markdown to.

Except they killed it, because enough people must have realised that the word processor bundled with the OS did everything they needed without having to pay Microsoft a subscription for Word.

So now Microsoft is trying to turn notepad into the rudimentary word processor that people expect to come with their OS, destroying the aspect that made it useful

Honestly I remember someone telling me and I’ve never seen it myself so I went looking

Turns out there’s even faster now

And without fail, every accusation continues to be an admission

A dude got up to 90mph on a bike just off his own steam before

I remember all the adverts when I was a kid telling me that if I got hit by a car at 30mph there was a 90% chance I’d live (this was the happy path of the advert). This is also cars ostensibly driven by licensed people.

E-bikes with a 25mph limiter are not a risk if we allow cars in the same space as pedestrians

And you guys don’t have a state pension either, right?

You guys really need to get on with a revolution. Work until you die is kinda supposed to be something we are moving away from

Awright Bart Simpson

People know I’m often not timely with message responses

If they’re not cool with that, they probably self selected out of being my friend

There’s definitely exceptions

Gotta say those flippy top ones only look cool if you can pull off a full 80s beach holiday look with it. Those light reactive ones kinda end up giving history teacher vibes rather than cool vibes any time I’ve seen them. Oakley’s when not on a ski slope (and even then tbh) kinda makes the wearer look like an out of touch boomer.

I’m not a big fan of those super thin 90s styles coming back in, but some people can definitely pull them off, I think face shape comes into play a lot more with them

Goddamn so everyone’s a bastard, eh?

Honestly, what a monumentally shit take from OP

There are people out there losing family members, many of them forever, over politics

There are millions of people who don’t feel safe leaving their house right now due to politics

Millions more worried about straight up losing their house and everything they own over politics

People worried about where their next meal is coming from

People worried if they’re gonna be able to afford to continue to fucking live

Others wondering if there’s even going to be much of a world left to live in

Many people thinking about politics are doing so because they do not get a choice. No one wants to think about any of that, they’re being forced to by the reality unfolding around them.

Good

Hopefully the rest of the industry takes note too

I want to go back to a time when if someone read the headlines of today, they would assume it was from some badly written movie rather than reality.

Wow, so I thought having an explicit 4chan block was kinda silly enough, but finding out it works by running OCR on every uploaded image and looking for the words “Anonymous” and “No” is absurdly silly.

Most people […] write […] comments […] and hope AI picks them up

Really quite sad if there’s even one person out there doing that.

This is also as much of a grift as any SEO that claims to have cracked the code of getting to the top of results. Even if they have figured something reproducible, it will get fixed. If someone can manipulate a search engine to provide results different to what it would otherwise do, that’s a bug they will fix

That movement is still energy

Build a circuit to make use of that et voilà

Friction makes heat. Same thing really

We can do both
