Anon gets his iPhone battery replaced

You say "anti Apple crowd" like we shouldn't all be exactly that. Corporations have nobody's interest at heart but their own. Stop being a fanboy, stop feeling any kind of loyalty for a bunch of rich fucks that'll screw you over first chance they get. Pro consumer is the only reasonable position to have.

For perspective, this speed is:

  • 928 157 450 kilometers per hour
  • 576 730 301 miles per hour

In one second, you would travel around:

  • 258 000 kilometers
  • 160 000 miles

Which is around 6.43 times around the Earth's equator.

So bad it was actually entertaining

Reply in thread

I regularly go to a Vietnamese restaurant with work colleagues not only because the food is great, but the entertainment value of the owner berating you for not eating the expensive vegetables or calling you an idiot because you ordered the small drink despite the small price difference is just hilarious. You can tell he isn't faking it too, the guy really just can't keep it in. We love it, but I've met plenty of people who vowed to never return after the experience.

TV nerds: what should I watch

Some shows I really enjoyed in recent years:

  • Arcane (amazing animation, world, and story - you don't need to know anything about the game to enjoy it)
  • Peaky Blinders (it's finished and so good throughout)
  • Travelers (also finished, extremely underrated)
  • The Expanse (6 seasons of some of the best sci-fi ever)
  • Stranger Things (ongoing but highly recommend)
  • Beef (limited series so finished, so good)
  • The Bear (very good, raw characters and emotions)
  • Ted Lasso (no need to care for football, just extremely lovable characters and heartwarming story)
  • Breaking Bad (if you haven't watched this, it's a must - best TV imo)
  • The Last of Us (no need to know the game)
  • Andor (best star wars since the original trilogy, mature, dark, and suspenseful)

They're in no particular order, and I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot, but I definitely think all of the above are must watch.
