  • It depends on your use case. I got my mom the cheapest M1 Air and she loves it more than any other laptop she’s ever had. It’s good for browsing the web, watching videos, making documents, Zoom etc. And the battery life is incredible. 8GB ram is more than enough to do all this and more at the same time (at least on a MacBook).

    The more expensive Air and Pro models with more powerful M chips will obviously be better at more demanding tasks - processing, editing, coding etc.

    And none will be good for games, unless you shell out $4k to get 40 fps on medium settings.

  • What did you do??? Do you own fucking YouTube or something???

  • I want to say Trump is no better, and even worse in many ways on foreign policy. But then there's shit like this:

    Biden and Graham Reportedly Schemed On How 'To Go to War For Saudi Arabia'. The Republican senator said it would “take a Democratic president” to commit American troops to defend the Saudi kingdom, according to a new book.

    Like...I feel physically sick reading the entire article. This magazine is apparently a libertarian rag so take the article with a grain of salt. But goddamn is it bad.

    On their about page:

    3/ Disrupt and shut down the military-industrial complex in NZ and globally through non-violent direct action and respecting a diversity of tactics.

    Like...how? Seriously, how? Like, I'm not saying non-violent civil disobedience isn't a good strategy - it has worked in the past against some governments in some situations. But... tell me fucking how do you intend to non-violently shut down the goddamn military-industrial complex globally.

    What the actual fuck.

    Like, do you even hear yourselves?

  • I don’t wanna be lost in my thoughts cuz then I spiral. It’s good to have a video or a stream or some music in the background constantly. I have a strong suspicion that the rise in popularity of twitch and multi-hour long YouTube videos is because many people probably feel like this nowadays.

  • So far, it’s just a recap of each Nolan movie lol. I’m sure there will be some analysis soon enough. There must be some reason why past-me subscribed to this channel.

    This is what Twitter used to be.

  • it wasn’t that bad I guess. It was like what would you do if you knew you were going to die in a week. The responses were - spend time with family, jump off an airplane, do a bunch of drugs, and she said kill the current and former presidents of Mexico.

  • Working class is somehow full of chuds. We shouldn’t be, we should be communists. But we’re not. I hate it.

  • I’ve briefly mentioned China a couple of times at work, not even in positive terms, just uttered the name of the country, and bow howdy the response…it’s communist. Its repressive. It’s this it’s that. I just, I forgot that’s how normal people think.

  • I didn’t dare ask. Before this we were talking about romance and grandparents. Like…they are a good person! I think! I don’t know…I’m so confused.

  • They have a fiancé soooo idk. Maybe you’re right tho.
