it was previously quite easy, but it seems to be getting much harder as Google locks the ecosystem down alongside their push towards manifest v3 (cause nobody can have nice things) and potentially moving their Chromebooks to Android

a used Chromebook might still be a good option for a cheap linux laptop though — your mileage may vary. if you go that route, look for one that lets you replace its bootloader. the Google one is extremely annoying if you’re running a third-party OS, because it’ll wipe your SSD and reinstall ChromeOS if you hit spacebar during boot (probably Google’s way to punish the user for straying too far from the ecosystem)

all of the subculture YouTubers I watch are colliding with the weirdo cult I know way too much about and I hate it

I bet it generates stochastic nonsense you’ll read like tea leaves

[–] self@awful.systems 4 points 2 months ago

hahaha yeah nah this ain’t it

but while you’re briefly still here, you know what really helped me when I was 13 and still an absolute shithead about what I was led to believe was the one true proper english, to the detriment of my ability to write with tone and feeling?

I read achewood and I finally understood how to write with texture

anyway you won’t take this advice because you’re the type who gets off on incorrecting someone else’s writing, but for a better audience than you: read achewood and finally understand

or alternatively, and hear me out here

lecture me on fucking grammar again like a mediocre grade school teacher and get banned

[–] self@awful.systems 4 points 2 months ago (5 children)

wow! imagine if this post was funny, informative, or even fucking correct at all

I notice you didn’t give an example of the title with appositive commas though. maybe because it flows like shit?

holy fuck what an embarrassing post

You’re giving “David,” and I doubt very much you’re personally familiar with him, credit where it isn’t due.

hey “David”, this fucking weirdo ~~goldbug~~ gold stockpiling enthusiast says we don’t know you

anyway, I had to dig through way too many of your unending awful posts (please log the fuck off) to find out that the reason why you’re in here posting about gold is because you’re into the other thing weirdo ancaps love:

Of course, BitCoin is doing better than ever, and it will continue to rise while Russia is under sanctions and drives demand.

Unless you do what they call a “rookie move” and don’t keep a personal wallet.

so how about you fuck off out of buttcoin

my racist uncle who says he works for nintendo, hates video games, and consistently can’t program his microwave didn’t mention there’d be a new metroid game so it’s doubtful they’re still making them

[–] self@awful.systems 6 points 3 months ago

So I’m shutting it down.

oh precious
