That kind of seems like that is exactly what these are. The specs are still sort of terrible, though, but pricing isn’t too far off for what is advertised in them.
It heats water to hot! Instead of heating water from cold to lukewarm! /s
I sit down to wipe, I have a cat, and I have the toilet paper over. Neither the above comment nor yours explains my situation. Over is just easier to use, and subjectively more aesthetically pleasing.
It is difficult to make new friends when prioritizing the second desire, or at least takes a lot more trial and error, or luck, to find other people comfortable with that.
Windows Registry
I had recurring issues with registering Bluetooth devices, where they would pair initially but refuse to connect again after a reboot. I couldn’t remove the device from saved connections, and registry edits wouldn’t save or persist. I’d have to completely uninstall the driver, change the registry, and reinstall the drivers, with restarts between each step, to get it to work for 1-2 days.
Now, having to troubleshoot isn’t what turned me away from Windows to Linux. I knew I would run into that plenty on Linux as well, but I came to hate the registry. If I was going to have to go through all this trouble to get things to work, I might as well do it on a system I had more control over. I had worked with different distros on VMs and dual booting before, so when I built a new system, I just skipped Windows entirely.
I agree with not overly fanboying, but “they might stop support” can literally happen with any platform. If AMD stops open source support, they’re in the same boat as NVIDIA but with a leg up from having all the history an experience from the time with support.
Your favorite distro could go out of support and have the project closed tomorrow, just like Windows 10 reaching EoL. Except someone else can fork that distro and pick up the mantle to continue the project.
That game that you really want to play on Linux might suddenly choose to implement an anti-cheat or DRM that isn’t compatible with Linux, or a different game might choose to remove that block and it suddenly opens up for the Linux community.
Either put both the coins and bills in your pocket together and sort it out later, or don’t pick your items up off the counter until you sort out your change.
Because even if they gave your paper bills back separate from the coins, if your other hand is so occupied with the items you purchased, how were you going to get the bills in your wallet anyway?
Counterpoint, if the customer places the money on the counter for payment, how is there any issue if the cashier returns change by placing it on the counter?
What is considered polite may differ by region and culture. (I’m not claiming you specifically would be upset at this, it’s just relevant to the meme.)
In addition, be sure to supplement their diet with the occasional human leg
They didn’t make a movie, but The Forever War is one of my all time favorite novels and deals with this situation exactly.
The new launch will be right in the middle of Intels proposed fix, so will still be able to cash in on the troubles Intel is facing (especially if it doesn’t work right away), while making sure AMD processors don’t have a similar fatal flaw. Nothing would be worse than swooping in to take over the share of consumers trying to leave Intel, only to run into their own stability issues.
Passing at 140km/h, or 227km/h?
Those weren’t any of the points that I brought up. And are poor arguments against telling people their options.
It shouldn’t be pushed on people, but it should be talked about to give people more choice and agency in their home computing.
LIGHTNING BOLT! LIGHTNING BOLT!
I’ll be careful
Enshittification and planned obsolescence are absolutely different things from this, though they all do make products worse.
The phenomenon of major producers of media “playing it safe” and taking options meant to please the mass, general public at the expense of catering to fans, and in turn making milquetoast products that no one is really happy about definitely happens in other forms of media, and did not originate with nerd culture. Movies and specifically Hollywood has been doing it for a while, “Best Seller” listed books are guilty of it, and it’s pretty much genre agnostic. It’s a result of producers being unwilling to take risks, and the more money being pumped into something, generally the worse it gets.
“Just kept tossing their hair and looking at me.”
Are we sure the employees weren’t shaking their heads at the customer and they are just an idiot? I’m also assuming the doors were already locked, or they would have just walked in, and the hours are typically posted on the door. I feel that should be enough of an indication the store is closed. People don’t need to have their hands held through everything I life. Expecting a little independence from them isn’t being not nice.
