Also don’t forget to remove the plastic film(s) they put on the CPU/Cooler and everywhere else!

I feel like we need a Redditor’s Anonymous community lol.

Hi I’m Swintoodles and I’ve tried to open reddit 3 times this morning. The site is sparse, so I only browsed for 20 minutes, but I know I can get better!

Only becomes a problem if commenters/posters get out of hand. On a more mild topic like self-hosting it’s probably not a massive issue for the foreseeable future.

How would that even work? I assume that there would need to be a built in backdoor somewhere, since it’s clientside rather than the oldschool data pull from centralized servers.

That always confused me as a child, since it was super easy to just test it for yourself. Turned out salt tasted salty regardless of where on your tongue it was, the same for the rest of the flavors.

Windows 10… I have Mint dual booted, but couldn’t bother to make video games work on it and have used it maybe a few dozen hours at most. School had some fairly Windows-centric materials as well that made it hard to transfer over.

Sadly superfluous meetings is a time-honored corporate tradition across all age groups.

At least for utilities you can reframe it as paying for parcels of utility, and then consuming them, like you do for food. Middleman bullshit like cloud services that refuse to let you just self-host can screw off. Having to spend money to spend extra resources to deal with a 3rd party is obnoxious, doubly so when they just decide they don’t want to support it anymore and pull the plug.

Only because the late fees and collection agencies are to die for :)

But at the same time, deflating the sales of the product has the risk of prompting the company to not continue with a franchise or employ those developers in the future.

Wireless charging?
