I see posts on reddit all the time that are like "I ordered 1 SSD and got 10" and I am wondering when it'll happen to me. I'd love that surprise.

What are the odds that Elon is paying for these ads? Or a shell company or something. These seem so unnatural.

“We must give the richest man in the world even more money… for the good of the brand” is insane.

We are so fucking cooked as a country. Fuck all of these MAGA asswipes screaming "freedom"

These people have never cared about freedom or the government exerting its power. They just want to be in charge and force their will on others.

Imagine wearing a Trump hat out in public. Fucking morons.

God, this news keeps getting worse. They're going to pass this bill that will kill their core base, poor rural republicans. But they won't ever take accountability. It will be someone else's fault.

Conservatives have never been about saving money, regardless of how much they try to sell that idea.

So incredibly disappointed in your poor decision-making. Maybe you should move to Idaho with the SWAT forces you love so much, since you clearly don't support the people who voted for you.

Disgusting. She will not be getting my vote when the time comes.

"We are experiencing a higher volume of calls than normal."

When has this ever not been true? I feel like these places just understaff their call centers and play this message just to placate customers. Minutes of waiting, listening to usually the worst music someone could find for free.

Go for one bike ride, wake up the next day to 5 fat mosquito bites. It’s that time of year I suppose.

The amount of Bungie corporate bootlickers is astounding. Bungie blatantly stole that artist's work, their watermark is still in several textures.

Anyone arguing that this could have been an accident needs to wake up. A large company stealing from an independent artist? Color me surprised!

Man, it would be great if we could ever get a properly left-leaning party instead of just the Democrats.

Oh, believe me, I know. Half my family is still aboard his hype train.

We're just at the beginning of all of this, though. Things are going to get significantly worse for everyone, including them. Maybe they will learn a lesson, but I wouldn't bet on it.

...and like the dumbasses they are, they voted for him thinking he cared about them. Or maybe it was just to "own the libs."

Now they're shocked that they too are on this sinking ship.

People who write descriptions/bios for shelter animals are truly amazing. Rescue pets are great and deserve homes.

Those who do not get their animals fixed seriously suck. Especially if they let their animal out and roam. Just constantly creating more animals that need homes.

It's also just another service that the brand could deprecate and then the hardware itself is worthless. This is not needed for technology that doesn't need to be "smart."

The brand that eventually makes "dumb" appliances again that just work, will take over.

Brands really need to stop selling "platforms" for 'smart' technology.

I will never connect my dishwasher, washing machine, fridge, or TV to the internet because the apps are often poorly built and very insecure.

Over the last few years, it seems Amazon has a less and less chance of sending me the item I actually ordered. Kind of insane to see the quality slip this hard.

Recently started buying Envy apples after having only Cosmic Crisp for over a year. Less tart, and a bit more crunchy of a texture.

Not better or worse, but a very good apple.

Mini-displayport and mini-hdmi need to be fully removed from hardware going forward and instead replaced with either Thunderbolt or just a higher bandwidth type-C.

These random cables are rare, and extremely jank.

Somehow Microsoft's "Snap" feature native to Windows 11 is worse than the PowerToys "Fancy Zones" feature. PowerToys is an optional install available on GitHub that Microsoft also makes.

Why they cannot ship the good thing is just peak Microsoft.

Yeah so I’ve heard. I’m keen to try something more stable too. Have had less than great experiences in the past but it is always fun playing around with random distros.

The plan is to reformat and run something basic like Linux Mint on it so I can have more control and less BS… it doesn’t need to do anything else.

Yeah it’s the path I need to go. I have Win 10 pro running on this old HP slim tower I was given when I built my dad a new computer during Covid.

It exists as a permanently VPN connected torrent box. Needs to be online 24/7 but Microsoft insists on rebooting it for “necessary” updates.

Love it when I specifically tell my computer not to restart because a long process is running, only for windows to decide that “now is the time, we’re doing it anyways.”

Need to reformat this thing and get away from anything Microsoft.

Shout out to the drivers who stop to let pedestrians cross at crosswalks.
