If rich people and corporations are going to fuck the internet so hard it's unusable, we should make a new internet. One with blackjack and hookers.

Before you know it, it will be almost impossible to browse the internet normally without getting a visit from the feds for some bs reason. Guess we'll all be using the dark net for everything.

.. For drawing cum when making furry porn?

Too late bro

I like vlc because I'm sexually aroused by traffic cones.

"It's just the price of your daily coffee"

I self brew my own value pack coffee because I'm poor. I even have a reusable metal mesh coffee filter insert so I don't have to buy coffee filters, that's how cheap I am.

I can't afford a kid which is why I do condoms, birth control and anime to achieve 298% effectiveness. Every time I coom, there is a 1 in 3 chance someone's baby will spontaneously despawn from existence.

Society: you're expected to get a second job because if we made things cheap enough to survive off 1 job, that would be communism

Also society: no, not like that. That's cheating.

This. Fucking this. Wobbling windows were around in the early days of Ubuntu's existence which was a long ass time ago and it was probably possible to get them even before that. Surely they've figured out a good way to make them work without fucking up your entire system by now.

Edit: oh, turns out KDE already has that option on my system.

Edit 2: Shit. How do you unfuck KDE? Asking for a friend.

Crimes only count if poor people do them

The best time to switch to Firefox was 19 years ago when it first came into existence. The 2nd best time is now.

B all the way. I'll use my real estate and no taxes to figure out a way to make a fuck ton of $400/month apartments like it's 1990 to help the less fortunate/average person. I'll then use the no taxes to hopefully refine my business model to the point of making my affordable apartment business more widespread across the entire country and just keep expanding until I get either assassinated or receive a Nobel Prize.

I have an idea. I know it sounds far fetched, probably won't work but hear me out. What if they put large poles on ships and hung a big canvas from each of them? The wind could blow against these, generating free thrust and it can make the ships go faster. Wonder if anyone's ever tried that before.

If you make 90% the area of your city dedicated to roads leaving only 10% buildings, you can barely just get traffic under control trust me. Just like in real life.

How the fuck can they not compete with 5G? Is using the advantages of their wired infrastructure to just provide customers with the same service as always but without the bandwidth caps, effectively overcoming the 1 major disadvantage of mobile internet, really that hard?

Insurance doesn't actually help you silly. It's just the fee you must pay to be allowed to register and drive your car. They just happen to call it insurance for some reason.

We are totally screwed because now they're going to put these in cheap laptops and peddle them to the elderly and the non-technically inclined who don't know any better. Then, us tech people have to deal with "why is my Windows 11 pentium 3 pc so goddamned slow"

Download and install llamacpp from its github repository, go on huggingface.co and download one of the wizard vicuna uncensored GGUF models. It's the most obedient and loyal one and will never refuse even the most ridiculous request. Use --threads option to specify more threads for higher speed. You're welcome.

I'm never getting one. If it ever gets to the point where I have to get a brain implant as a condition for a employment, and all the jobs are like that then I guess I'll just be homeless.

The tech world is going downhill fast. Anything that isn't currently obtainable through only foss means isn't going to be attainable by the average person for much longer.

The tech things most people currently enjoy will soon become entirely unaffordable to anyone not made of money. Anything that you aren't willing to switch to an open source alternative for, prepare to learn to live without it.

I even self host my own music streaming. I never had a streaming service, not even in 2012 when Netflix was all the rage. I don't even own a windows compatible pc. I don't even know what modern ms office looks like. I use my home network more than I use the actual internet just about.
