I’m not talking about used clothes, I’m talking about all the new clothes we can buy, especially the disposable stuff from the likes of h and m.

Huh? Western clothing is normally what poor country industry is made of, or at least a significant part is.

Cars just cost too much period, because now every car has to have touch screen entertainment systems, electric door latch systems, backup cameras (this is required by law), and corollas probably have an option for heated leather seats. Oh,

I bought a t470s on ebay for 100 dollars during the holidays and I’m blown away that its mostly an intel era macbook air (was there a 2017 model?) with upgradeable ram 16gb (for 35 dollars), nvme, and a replaceable battery. Gaming pcs, unti

Also, critics of Toyota's offerings never understand the appeal of reliable and easy to fix cars to the masses, and how people value boring over unreliable, cost optimized "excitement"

This is why when presented the chance to buy a 4k60 monitor or a 2k144 monitor this christmas, I decided to get the high refresh 1440p monitor…

by 7speter 4y ago
1440p should be midrange but the gpu makers refuse to make that a reality. How is it that decent framerate 1080p was entry level SEVEN years ago, and cards that double the speed of the rx480 are still going for 300-500 dollars?

I remember we live in an era where we are always optimizing ourselves, and seemingly being goaded to optimize ourselves by the media we consume. If I need a break I just take a break, because I remind myself of the articles I’ve read about

Ive been really confused by what exactly the intel and amd drivers are relative to mesa and I’ve been wondering if my understanding is a common misnomer… so to put this all concise-ly, mesa was originally an implementation for opengl on lin
