Price point is fine for a “new” laptop.

Unfortunately, most of us obsessed with repairable laptops are also okay with refurbed at like a tenth the price.

Sure, a framework is more repairable than a thinkpad. But the point is to reduce ewaste. I can more easily reduce ewaste by buying this repairable enough laptop from eBay for $200-$400 vs $1200 without ram or ssd

So long as Daniel is paid from Mullvad, Mullvad financially supports the far right by proxy.

I’m a fan of academic and Pop-academic sources.

Pop Academic is usually the much easier to read version of a proper academic quality book. I’m a fan of Bart D. Erhman and a lot of his books are pop academia, but they reference his academic works.

The process I was taught for this kind of source finding is 1) Search for a broader topic 2) Find a well referenced book on the broader topic 3) Read book reviews of the book to determine if it has the content you want 4) Read the book or skim the book looking for mention of the idea you want to know more about 5) Check the relevant sources of that section.

If there are no sources listed (or they don’t exist because they’re hallucinations), its probably not a good book for information.

I’ve got a virtualized set up to.

Its pretty unbothered being virtualized so long as the disks are passed through. In my set up, I have the SAS board passed through and its using that.

My reasoning is that I wanted a lot of disks space, but I couldn’t get that without just a big case in general, so I use the extra space to store GPUs for AI and encoding stuff

Would you like to talk more?

I’m interested in making friends. I’ll send you my email if you’d like

My friend. You as an individual cannot be targeted with genocide. Genocide is the erasure of a whole cultural identity.

That’s another linguistic oddity you’re using that I think is upsetting people to be hostile against you.

It sounds like you’re being harassed and that’s terrible that you’re experiencing that kind of violence.

Is this danger around speaking, is it something that’s happening to you in real life or just online? It sounds like something bad is happening to you in real life, but I think these issues your having for which you’re asking for permission to speak is caused by your linguistic oddities.

Okay, but those are both normal identities here. Have you had bad experiences based on those identities here?

Its an odd linguistic choice to identify as a “male homosexual” specifically and especially as a defiant statement against a seemingly specific type of bigotry.

Further its odd to start from the assumption that people will be racist towards you as well. Especially here where we can’t know that information unless given to us.

You’re clearly traumatized and reacting in response to that, but it starts the conversation off on a terrible foot when you assume the community you’re posting to for the first time is going to be hostile to you for things we cannot know unless you share it. I think the hostility you’ve encountered here, including my swearing, was triggered by this because you offended us.

What do you mean permission to speak?

Where are you trying to talk?

Do mean like “speak to a therapist?”

Call the police stop posting! Are you okay?

What do you mean “male” and “homosexuality” is incompatible?

Further what do you mean your ethnicity is divisive? What are you talking about?

You should talk about poetry if that’s what you want to do.

Gotta say it homies.

I think I finally found a kink I don’t get.

This video by Northridgefix always stuck with me because most of why his business grew is because he spent so much Google ads that he made enough money to then move to a strip mall by a major road all while making YouTube videos and taking mailed in work.

He has another video looking for new employees because he had too much business.

I’m probably just stupid.

Yeah that’s what’s going to happen with the main blog.

Forgejo action > static HTML site > Cloudflared tunnel

This separate idea is to have a Lemmy instance to host pictures and federate the blogs comment system so people ideally won’t have to sign in or make an account to comment.

As a guy who’s cleaned far too many smoker fucked PCs.

99% Isopropyl and a tooth brush is what you need. It won’t be fast, but you need that kinda precision and attention to make sure you got everything.

You might also consider just replacing any fans. I don’t know if you have a laptop or a desktop, but a laptop fan is a bitch to clean

Oh was the ice cream machine broke? I hear he gets mad about that

Only ones who dissapointed me were Star Trek: Voyager actors. Its the only thing I got attached to as a kid.

Robert Beltran - Commander Chakotay

Roxann Dawson - B’Elanna Torres

Both transphobes and trump supporters who won’t shut up about no one wanting to invite them to Star Trek stuff anymore.

I used to feel bad for Rob because he got such a shit treatment in ST:V in terms of writing and because his character fell victim to Jamake High water’s grifting (look him up if you want to see why 90’s native american characters kinda suck).

Seems he’s just an asshole about being famous. Doesn’t like being recognized in public.

TBH, I don’t blame him. I’ll take it over everyone else in this thread.

Behind on the lore.

What did Shaq do other than nearly every ad in the world? I can accept being a sell out for car insurance but anything egregious?
