True. I think I’ll switch to Arch proper soon.

Didn’t know if it was supported but this clears it up. Thanks.

Or you could take the Dream Theater route and end the song abruptly.

Do I have to use PC receiver or is that unnecessary?

I’m going to come off as retarded but I have to ask: when did Signal get this bad rep? I remember not too long ago that it and Telegram were praised for their privacy practices. What happened for that to change?

We need more devices like this. Will definitely pick this up.

Having something that doesn’t connect to the internet makes for a better device in the long run. Plus, as others have mentioned, less distractions.

Of course. Just remember this when buying a laptop (and by extension a printer): FUCK HP!

Noted.

While I’m yet to do it myself, I would suggest getting a Thinkpad T480 and upgrading its RAM. The reason you want a T480 is because it was the last Thinkpad to have user removable parts. One tip: when using eBay, make sure you filter out the T480s. The T480s is not the same as the T480 since it doesn’t have user removable parts.

I’ve been wanting a Framework so bad. When I start working again (which should be soon), I’m going to save up for one.

Thank you! Bookmarking for future reference.

Same here. People erroneously associate these climate changing monstrosities with Republican-voting, rural America but I’ve seen these in my supposedly liberal city way too many times. The worse offenders are college frat boys with inflated egos wasting their tuition on lift kits and oversized chrome wheels. And you’re right about their usage. My dad once had two pickups: an F-150 King Ranch and a Nissan Frontier basic trim. You would think that, even with the luxury features, the F-150 would do the heavy work, right? Nope. The Frontier was always doing the dirty work while the King Ranch was my dad’s crown jewel (before he sold it).

As I mentioned on another thread, I’m trying to reduce my car dependency by walking and cycling more often but I do intend to buy “one more” car; preferably a 80s/90s Toyota pickup but a Land Cruiser 80 series is also in the cards.

Damn, there goes my lateral raises.

If there’s one I’ve learned after being on the internet for 17 years, it’s this; you can throw an entire mountain of evidence at a conspiracy theorist and they STILL won’t believe you.

Looked into Kagi. Seems interesting. Personally, I use either Brave search or Searx. There’s was post over at [email protected] about open source alternatives to ChatGPT and I might look into those. But I definitely keep Kagi in mind. By the way, How good is Kagi for,um… “sailing the high seas”?
