Literally lmao. Hate Bezos all you want but the US can’t live without Amazon now; it’s another Walmart/Target now.

Seriously tho, like reddit was autistic enough but now you gotta be even more niche enough to know about smaller better reddit.

You’re late lol. Phone assistants such as Siri, Bixby, Google Assistant etc. have already been AI search engines for years. People just didn’t really consider it until it got more advanced but it’s always been there.

Using Linux isn’t hard. Switching to Linux is hard.

I’m in a similar boat, but I never feel fully satisfied to release a song (probably cuz I am a hobbyist and I suck lol).

But regardless, I think there is an element of selling your soul to Hollywood to really make it big, and I just don’t have that kind of commitment at this point in my life. I like relaxing and anonymity.

Nah, social media is like a hydra. Another “TikTok” will just be born from the ban.

Nothing is changing drastically until we have better data protection laws.

Facts. We need better data protection laws, especially now more than ever with the rise of AI

I wanna like Linux but I play too many games with anti-cheats that just don’t work on Linux yet :(

I agree with this. Pixel A series are pretty much the smoothest android experience for cheap. Plus they have a pretty good camera as a bonus. The low end Chinese phones and even the Samsung A series just don’t quite do it for me. I think OneUI was made for faster hardware.

Keep in mind most of them are barely different from each other. It’s mostly a regional thing with laws, but a lot of them will recycle the panels or SoCs.

Yea but fuck the security torx screws. Also hot take, but underrated screw goes to tri-wing/Y. They’d be great screws if they weren’t security screws as well.

It’s the new “4k”. Just buzzwords to get clicks.

I think there’s now a law about the modernization/regulation of fast food restaurants. Just so we don’t have a bunch of leftover Pizza Hut buildings anymore when a store closes.

Jokes on you, they dont need to anymore :)

HDR and anti-cheats are the main reasons I can’t fully switch over. I am niche and particular about things so I do think I’d enjoy Linux if it weren’t for the games I play. I have an OLED display and too many hours in Valorant. It’s like I accidentally upgraded out of Linux.

Lemme put it this way. Freedom of speech isn’t freedom of consequences. You talk shit, you’re gonna get hit. Is it truly freedom if you’re infringing on someone else’s rights?

I still have my phone set that way. I turn off all notifications that aren’t messages. Though, I guess now it all goes through my watch first.

Correct. That’s the nature of it, now add generational trauma on top and you get our current society. Testosterone is a hell of a drug.

Exactly this. As a dude, I sometimes feel like I have to be the one to stand up and say something because I have more authority in THEIR minds. I swear some guys just hear women speaking as white noise.

As a male, it’s somewhat our jobs to teach the next generation that this behavior is not okay.

Not saying you have to be super active about it, but it’s no wonder some women are afraid of men. They’re much stronger and sometimes just straight up unhinged from generations of telling other men to stfu, man up, and go to war to fight for your country for no reason.

It’ll take a few more generations, but I really do hope we can break this cycle of abuse. It does kind of help that women have become smarter with their rights and they’re not going to reproduce with these types of men, but clearly the issue is still relevant because rejection could lead to death.
