I don’t think you need to get yourself banned. Tell them you will make the switch, and when you’ll make it. You don’t need to explain yourself any further or make excuses.

No, I don’t think headphones will changes the skull, unless you put them on a newborn. But I do wonder how much information could be lost, given how much of it is digitalized nowadays.

I can’t put into words how much I appreciate a link that does not lead to YT.

With tech it’s about convenience imo. I am privacy-concious, trying to avoid services like google, but a game’s EULA? scrolls to the bottom Accepted. Do Russians mine bitcoins on my machine? Is Unity surveilling me? Who knows.

Then of course these brands put a lot of effort into strengthening consumer loyalty. Make their stores a nice place to be, offer plans especially to minors, so they get used to their products and eco-systems early on. For example Google’s ChromeOS laptops in schools. They are cheap and… well… are cheap.

But overall, I think consumers do not realize what they are buying because many buy impulsively, or simply don’t know or care about the impact of their purchases. And to some degree, who can blame them? Who has the energy to sort through anything in the grocery store and determine which products are produced through slavery, animal cruelty, stealing the local population’s water, aren’t sourced locally etc. Because at that point, there’s probably nothing left.

The moment you try to min max the economy will fall apart. Replicate new PC parts? Cool, but now intel/AMD/Nvidia will go bankrupt, no more development. So I guess you could min-max the economical revolution. Capitalism doesn’t appear to make sense in a world with near endless access to anything.

Personally I’d get heaps of food and water

I hate that by now, I have found a way for capitalist to bill you anyways.

That’s a decent price. I would do some research on the mobo and PSU. HP likes to cheap out on those (or did), maybe Omen does, too.

If you use a table saw, take it seriously.

I’d like to add: don’t wear gloves, especially ones that are a little to big for your hands.

Pretty much any variation of power saw. The closer your hands are to the moving saw, the worse. Hand saws are cool tho. Love my Ryoba

never realized the cheetah is wearing a collar. does anyone know what that could be? Do Biologists put trackers on felines, like they do with marine animals to track their movement/migration patterns?

Saws. The sound they’re making shakes me to my core and having to help someone who almost amputated their finger enforced that fear further

For me personally? I have been steadily changing the way I source media over the past 2-3 years. Also I lately read more of other ppl going back to physical media for the same-ish reasons.

CDs/DVDs/BluRays

I don’t want to support Spotify, which is owned by tencent. I don’t want to spend a fortune on streaming services. I don’t want to sell my data to google by using YouTube, and I want to be able to listen to music/ watch movies when offline.

I think meditation has scientifically proven effects. One thing I keep hearing is that the slow concious breaths you take whilst meditating are signaling your nervous system that you are safe and can calm down.

I will never see Gandalf with the same eyes, now. Oh god.

How did you support essential workers during the pandemic?

Selma was the most fun to draw and it shows, everybody else looks kinda unhinged xD

It’s the game development on a budget PC xD

Needs no bling but to get stuff done.

Do you have a recommendation where to look for fan drivers? In the package manager/ apt or do I have to hope the GPU manufacturer offers them?

Der Inhalt des Memes ist nur bedingt maßgeblich. Es ist mehr die Frage in sich, die auf mich sehr abwertend wirkt. Zum einen habe ich nicht damit gerechnet nach meiner “Familienplanung” befragt zu werden, noch empfinde ich “hormonell verdreht” als angemessene Formulierung. Wirkt auf mich wie gesagt abwertend, da der weibliche Hormonhaushalt (historisch) oft als Fehler, oder Zumutung betrachtet wurde (Hysterie, hat ihre Tage, ergo sei sie nicht zurechnungsfähig etc.). Ich möchte dir nicht unterstellen, dass das deine Absicht war. Ich wollte wirklich nur schildern wie ich die Nachricht verstehe, bzw. was meine Assoziationen sind. Danke, dass du auf mich zugekommen bist und gefragt hast :)
