I know this is a gaming thread, but I bought a gen 1 framework laptop 13 DIY when they came out and all I can say is: buy it. The form factor of a MacBook but upgradeable and repairable. They now have AMD options that work with my gen 1. Excellent idea, great execution, can’t say enough good things lol
In a similar vein, I went with a Framework laptop. Expensive, but 100% modular and repairable, with an in-house secondhand marketplace. I have a gen 1, batch 2, and the thing is stunningly manufactured for a startup. Can’t say enough good things. Happy hunting!
Or, is it drink can doing the pelting of Texas? Also an interesting option
No one ever thinks about the minority 😢
It’s not just Americans. As a Canadian we’re deeply affected by American situations (plus our own politics). Sometimes the only way to put up with the complex world we live in is a little Squidwardism
I wanna know his lap times and how long it took
The lost IQ appears to have translated into uptoots
Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, but my understanding is basically an attempt at accounting for all civilization-collapsing-level catastrophic events. Maybe not global, but massive-scale.
In my experience, your first sentence sums it up nicely.
They assume a moral high ground because they’ve adopted a diet that is generally deemed healthier and better for the environment (I don’t always agree with this).
But unless they’re also doing all the things we could all do better (e.g. not buying new, not upgrading the the latest and greatest, not taking 40 minute showers, not eating out every second day), they’re only somewhat less guilty of environmental damage than the average person, but they’re taking a generally undeserved “holier than thou” position and then shoving it down your throat. This isn’t everyone, and I don’t really care what you eat, but these are the vegans that get under my skin.
I can add that I’ve built a career on rubbing elbows with the right ppl. You don’t have to be the best, you just have to be likeable and decently competent. As bad as it sounds, people relations first, productivity second.
I’m not the type to slum it for a paycheck, but I’ve found that good perceptions are everything. Balance technical ability with relationship management and you’ll be golden.
Oh, and I still regularly struggle with imposter syndrome, despite the above…
Leaned hopelessness. Can’t escape the effect regardless of your efforts so eventually you stop trying
This is the one! They’re ridiculously effective, so much so that my home provinces is sinking like 250 million into building 5 more of them over the next 5 years
Nah, you’ll owe them another 12 bucks for the inconvenience of them looking bad
And one for all the equipment that broke halfway through harvest and you have to fix but ended up replacing to finish harvesting and is now effectively an equipment graveyard
I’m not gonna lie, this had never occurred to me. But now that it has, it is 100% gonna be my hobby of the future
I think there’s an addictive cycle element to it too. A point where it isn’t just validating the decisions you’ve made, but a compulsion to see the number get bigger
But mah freedumb #rigpiglets
Quick access to massive credit card info as well. Micro step to “the everything app”?
I (somewhat cynically) recommend yoga. I hate that it works, but over the past 6 years I’ve gone from inflexible achy gym rat to the strongest/most flexible I’ve ever been. And old injuries seem to be fading, but that might be unrelated. Either way, can’t deny that it did something really good
You may one day get something like that! I think I read in a blog post somewhere that’s in their long-term plan. Not soon, as they just launched the 16 but I know they’re chewing on it!
