Which ThinkPad?

My ultra cynical take is that burn-in is a business feature that will force people to repair or upgrade sooner rather than later.

Rico showed me her red ring 😩😬

First I've heard of it lol

It's kinda how these sites function at all nowadays lol. Wasn't reddit text posts only a long time ago?

I still browse reddit, simply because the size of the communities I want to visit is much larger there. My browsing is however confined to the mobile page in Firefox, which is slow, clunky, and breaks frequently, which means my reddit usage is down by something like 99%. Lemmy has the sync app, and without the app I wouldn't be here. Browsing Lemmy before it was awful.

Also, I kinda like that Lemmy is smaller. There's much less noise, less of an algorithm feel to browsing. It feels slightly more like the internet I grew up with in the 90s and 00s, and I kinda missed that.

Since wsl2 supports cuda, my gaming computer can run open source deep learning models so easily it's stupid. I'm mainly using it to rip music from youtube and split it into stems for music production using Facebook demucs. I tinkered a bit with stable diffusion models a while back too. It's pretty sweet, especially since windows sees the linux drive as just another directory, so my DAW can just bookmark it. It's so seamless.

Win 11 is still garbage for privacy and ownership reasons though. MS can fuck a duck, but they make some pretty baller software.

For N64 right?

All I see is >!loss!<

Don't forget shooting at crystals and not using the weapon you want.

But it proves that 'people constructively and healthily socializing via the internet' is entirely possible without being forced to tolerate any more nonsense than one would normally expect when humans get together.

This reads so fucking stupid to anyone who hung around on the internet in the 90s and earlier. Social media and the monetization of social interactions is built on top of the ways we interacted before, not the other way around. Wanting to communicate and interact is why we used the internet in the first place. Social media is relatively new, and the internet hasn't always been this frustrating to use.

If you like hot dogs you like pig ass.
