Just bust the printer mafia already!

Just when China could been better than America…

The people who made the slop machines are on the side of ICE and Trump.

Got an L440, upgraded it to 16 GB and to i7, now it’s a beast. Had to “reset” its battery, otherwise it didn’t last for more than 20-30 minutes. Maybe will swap the screen to a 1080p IPS one and upgrade the WiFi/Bluetooth to modern standards.

I was gonna agree with you in the doomscrolling segment, then I read more, then I found this:

The whole goal of pro-porn propaganda is to make generations of men incapable of taking action and women who think that prostitution for the male glaze is a form of liberation.

🤣🤣🤣

Now tell me Chinese semen retention myths!🤣🤣🤣

That’s an entirely different thing, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypersexuality

It was. Modern extremist christians are convincing secular folks, that their ancient age beliefs are “common sense morality”. Some people are now even saying if it wasn’t for christianity’s “love thy neighbor”, we wouldn’t have freedom of religion, or that before the ten commandments people just murdered each other for no good reason.

Their choice of tactic to get back to cultural dominance is to secular wash their beliefs. “Porn addiction” started out from fundamentalist christian circles, and the only reason why science ever bothered with it (which by the way found it way less addictive than how fundamentalists tried to sell it) is due to it being pushed so hard by activists, who provided slightly secularized therapies through secular washed proxies. And whatever actual addiction it might have caused, is now buried under decades of therapies, that told you christianity is just “common sense” and how it’s the only non-falsifiable religion because some mountain has an indent on its peak.

And secular washing anti-porn sentiments is just the tip of the iceberg. The end goal of the push for transphobia is to push biblical patriarchy as “common sense”, the supposed problem being “temporary gender confusion”, and the panacea for it being the following of strict gender roles even if they won’t make you happy.

There’s a way to get around that, usually through the backdoor.

“Porn addiction” is being pushed by fundamentalist christians, to force a complete total porn ban, nothing more.

Sex addiction, to some degree, is literally coded into your brain, unless you’re a certain kind of asexual.

Isn’t right-wing views correlate with cognitive decline?

You’re living in a Metal Gear game, but there’s no Snake, and there’s no Raiden!

It’s happening!

RFK Jr. and all the antivaxxers need a Nuremberg-style trial…

Should most electronics come with no servicability at all, because most customers are not gorillas breaking products for no good reason?

The road to enshittification is paved with people telling you to just use the popular thing everyone else, calling removable media “e-waste”, or even suggesting you to just buy a pair of Raycons if you don’t want to pay for electrostatic headphones and an audiophile external DAC.

Return of socketed mobile CPUs when?

Older ThinkPads are unbeatable, especially those that still have the CPU sockets in them, and can be upgraded. I put an i7-4702MQ into my L440, now it performs really well with Manjaro, at the cost of sometimes draining the CPU in 30-60 minutes under very high loads (battery might need some rebuilding).

Or maybe it will come with some subscription model to get you more power, from the cloud of course.

Maybe he would be onboard if it was called “age verification, to make sure you’re not exposed to trans people”…

Will we see translucent Macbooks once again? Currently I’m pondering whether to replace the shell of my Dualsense controller with a translucent one (would look sick alongside with the LEDs), as translucent electronics look cool, except the techbro class wants us to have “sleek, ultrathin models made with premium materials” only.
