Yeah to me I don’t understand it either. But that’s personal choice. Then again I’m mostly an anti laptop person. Desktops make sense to me, laptops are the laissez faire I want to be a desktop but am demanding to much mobility for a function best performed in a localized hardwired intranet environment. With video games going mostly online I feel it has brought personal computers into a more internet focused setup and less of a local install hard computing get it done space. Thus exactly what companies like Amazon/Microsoft/etc want, creating a subscription based thin/zero client with a subscription to access anything.

Id say fuck the battery unless it’s for backup power, and still fuck it then if you don’t have your environment set up to run locally, as internet won’t work when the modems go out. Is it outdated concepts, sure… But it’s only outdated because marketing has pushed us that way in my opinion

So you are pro proprietary items, anti universal parts? I just think it’s a bad choice overall. I understand they make a battery wrap around components to make it fit, but overall I think it hurts the consumer

Honestly that just sounds worse. Why not use universal individually replaceable components unless you are trying to make a have to buy from us unique product

Are we going to tell him to crack open the pack and replace the individual cells that go bad, it’s usually safe with decent soldering, and an average volt/ohm meter to verify.

(Much cheaper than replacing many batteries as well).

Edit: thought I should say many batteries have moved away from that build.

That has to be version specific. I did run into the issue that the Apple devices app that Apple makes is only made available through the Microsoft Store though. So you can’t just run a standard install for it officially. Which sucks. Also their is no official Apple Devices app for Linux, so anyone who has an iPhone can’t “safely” manage their device without having both an Apple Account and a Microsoft account, or a Mac.

In my opinion thus far, AI is good for the consumer, not the enterprise. It has no new information, which is what makes companies grow. I know people don’t think the want it, but in the end, it will be that Microsoft, Apple, and Max n don’t have a reason for it right now. While Google does. (Bing is Microsoft so yes). People are idiots and can learn from others. New ideas can’t come from language models, thus useless to companies looking to engineer new ideas. But if you want to re-iterate BS people could not find, it helps. It will bleed anyone providing the information dry, so that will dry off, but it puts every dollar into the search engines povket for advertising, and steals from anyone chasing “the American Dream”.

He has a habit of using words from other conversations or things he has recently heard. It could be a sign that Iceland is the next country in his sights after greenland

The fight was in their enclosed back yard. I jumped the fence to help him. The shepherd is 2 doors down and is the only one that can leap the fences, but he stayed out of this mess as he knew it was upsetting people. (Probably an error of my story telling while not paying attention enough)

Yeah the shepherd though has been good, only coming by to say hello when he’s real lonely. It’s the ~35-40lb mix bread that bit me. Princess is a mix too that she had by the throat. The shepherd is the one I’ve had come by my place and while I got worried once he may hurt my chickens, he didn’t. He let them go with no wounds and it’s been 8 months with him never trying to break into their pen since I told them no. Now they just stop by every few months to say hello and get pets. Honestly, her/him being able to jump the fence makes the neighborhood feel safer as I know they won’t let others mess with my property. Not every dog is bad like not every person is bad. The pitbulls that attacked my chickens, are afraid to mess with the shepherd… . So I kind of like the shepherd knowing they can hop the fence and come defend them if I am at work or asleep and can’t hear.

It actually looks 100 times better than when it happened. I had a white bloch maybe 1" by 3.4" when it occured. But cleaning, covering and letting it rest it now looks to me like no worries at all. (Clearly being foolish about bacteria still) But the wound has closed up so it looks much smaller

Im not sure, I was originally worried that the bites to princess would have her blood in them, so when the smaller dog biting her would possibly transfer whatever illness from her to me, but dogs/humans share few viruses. Bacteria is another story, but without puss and irritation, I think I walked away lucky as possible

Thanks, yeah my tetanus shot is definitely out of date. Last one was maybe 14? So 22 years ago if that’s accurate. But I’ll be keeping a close eye on it

I say samon, but my lass and I have been talking about words tonight. She being from Tennessee says some words like salmon with an l. But she was real upset to find out Ralph Fiennes name was pronounced Raef she said. Certain word will evolve and sound different no matter what

Moved to Tennessee a few years back, everyone seems to say it here. Sal-mon.

I’ve been meaning to propose marriage to that mad lad, but I keep forgetting. Not a real marriage though, it’s to tied down, more like a federated marriage where anyone can join and leave when they want and block out corporations they don’t like… maybe more of an aquantience rather.

It would never happen but most all streets/roads/etc are owned by local (city, county, state) groups. They could make their own laws dictating that federal vehicles/employees cannot travel on specific roads. Making it so federal government members can’t get to said facilities as well.

Maybe stupid laws should be met with stupid laws

Exactly. It should be scorned

It’s more like the trade federation from Star wars, a conglomerate of people using money power to sway international relations of governments. They were never about peace, but the are about taking what they want when they want

I agree, but maybe we underestimate the youth, and we are still the melders of their understanding… Thus it may be best to embrace the abnormalities and discuss what we feel pertinent. If the heart of socialism is at understanding the value of people and treating them properly… Tearing them down for making jokes in a time of terror gets us no where. So I figure, support; joke. And be there. If one asks, answer. Don’t preach. Enlighten don’t breach. The world’s fucked… But if my last day is to make anothers day better, that may be all I can do

So woke is 6 7
