Maybe, but it’s a slippery slope where logical and quality arguments - even if it’s a simple image - lose their impact. The quality of an argument becomes diminished, and by letting that happen, you open yourself and your argument to criticism.

This isn’t a ‘you’ thing, I get that, but it is a fine, real-world example of it happening. If the creator of the image can’t be bothered to step back and see the obvious flaws, it has lost its merit before it’s even started, only being carrier by the people who are okay with spreading it without seeing the problems it has.

Would you put any trust into a professional of any field who cannot create an argument, be it text or image, that has such glaring issues? And you know the audience that this is trying to poke fun at will rip it to bits worse than I have. It has no impact, other than in echo chambers, where people overlook the obvious.

I hate this graphic. Read top to bottom, “have the day you Voted for” which is obviously incorrect as you would only capitalize the first word of the statement, so it’s bottom to top/left to right, thus “Voted for day you have the” which is also clearly not correct. Even if you ignore the capitalization error, the statement is just shit. I get what it’s trying to convey, but it sucks ass at doing so. It’s a roundabout way of saying “you reap what you sow” but the creator got all “Live, Laugh, Love” (or I guess “live, laugh, Love”) about it and thought they were creative and smart.

I bitched about this like 6 months ago the last time I saw it, and I’ll bitch every time I see it. It’s awful on all levels. Mirror the rainbow, flip the text so it reads left to right + top to bottom, and they really need a sharper phrase in general.

Yes. Disabled, faster.

GTA: SA has taught you well

holds the phone in front of me

WHAT? I CAN’T HEAR YOU, SPEAK UP. HELLO? YES I HAVE TO HOLD MY PHONE LIKE THIS, I’M ALLERGIC TO TECHNOLOGY. JUST GO ABOUT YOUR DAILY ROUTINE, DO NOT PAY ANY ATTENTION TO THE HAT.

I’m one of the outliers in that I do 80 to ~10 before the day is over, then I’ll charge and keep going, or I keep it topped up on the wireless charger throughout the day. But overall I’m charging at least a full cycle daily. I use my phone heavily. 1.5y in and I started using the 80% cutoff for lifespan, but I haven’t noticed a decline, it’s preventative and not reactive.

Family member has my previous phone, 2.5y old, and has not complained to me about the battery. When it was in my possession it was the same use case/scenario. Their use case is lighter duty, but they leave the screen on for like 10 minutes after idle, never turning it off manually. Pain.

My previous previous phone was given to a sibling, 3.5y old, again when it was mine it got the same heavy use. They use a battery bank some days, but they can be an even heavier user than I am sometimes - discord voice and video chatting, games, even doing one while also on a desktop. 100 to 20 or less most days, I often see it in the evening in battery saving mode around 10% when they are reaching for the bank. But that’s still with a few hours SoT and heavy use with socializing and games and stuff.

All 3 are pixel pros, 8/7/6. shrug

Re 2, I was and am angry about how MS handled the Xbox exclusives. They spent the 90s making games for the pc that were great, and then the Xbox drops and the pc market is ignored for years. “just buy the console” makes no sense when I have a far superior machine right here, and when multi-player is behind a subscription. I was gifted an Xbox a few years after launch, along with Midtown Madness 3, the only game I wanted - and never gave MS a cent of my own money. I stayed on Halo 1 for years, then when Halo 2 finally dropped for the pc, I got it and enjoyed my first playthrough on my computer. My first playthrough of H3, ODST, and 4 weren’t until the MCC dropped on steam. I got Forza bundled with the Xbox, but it wasn’t until Horizon 3 released on pc that I got into it.

I fucking despise the 15-year window where MS just abandoned their loyal customers on pc to milk people with their inferior box and subscription bullshit. The smartest move they have made was re-embrace the pc as a customer base. And 8 year-old me could have told those moronic C-suites in 2001. They isolated a core customer base for short-term profits, and they have earned nothing but resentment for it.

The Xbox should have always been a product for “I don’t understand computers, but I want to play games”, while the pc should have remained a “I know what I’m doing, and I don’t need a walled garden”. MS fucked up massively, and lost out on revenue trying to force their hand for a decade+. The fact that they release on both is nothing but positive, as they get customers from both camps, and they finally are undoing a bit of the hate and resentment they caused.

I do not :o works just fine for me

I’m using Thunder (app), first one I tried and it’s basically what I had with RedReader so I’ve never really tried anything else.

Fair. I didn’t type it since I don’t want to be that guy like ‘you mean [word]’. It’s very context sensitive yeah, but I think it’s okay in the right moment.

But the question is “where were”, and we haven’t colonized Mars yet even so past or current tense doesn’t matter. You’d just pop and then “oh no” (but in baby speech).

With some specific exceptions, for me. If you are one, and you aren’t using it against others, it’s fine. Like storytelling and describing a conversation, or just even being playful about it. Maybe being at a store with some friends looking at clothes or something, describing yourself and how something looks perhaps? Totally fine in my book. That’s our term, we should be able to reclaim it for ourselves.

But someone else who I don’t know and can’t immediately determine the meaning/context that uses it? Bitch you about to die.

🐺 help I seem to be trapped in some human abomination. I mean, ehem. Woof woof woof woof.

Like literally like oh my gawd did you see that basic bitch with last year’s iPhone pro max ultra deluxe special edition? I’m totally unfolloeing her on everything

it’s literally the day after the release of the new model

I uh… I’m not sure what your source is, but for mine ‘breeding’ is anything but “only for procreation”

E: in case it isn’t painfully obvious, I am le gay, so that may factor into your source woes :p

😏

You have no oxygen supply or life support system. You die immediately.

Congratulations, you are the proud spawn of Elon Musk and Barely Legal Gf #17.

This isn’t a guide, but any reverse proxy allows you to limit open ports on your network (router) by using subdomains (thisPart.website.com) to route connections to an internal port.

So you setup a rev proxy for jellyfin.website.com that points to the port that jf wants to use. So when someone connects to the subdomain, the reverse proxy is hit, and it reads your configuration for that subdomain, and since it’s now connected to your internal network (via the proxy) it is routed to the port, and jf “just works”.

There’s an ssl cert involved but that’s the basic understanding. Then you can add Some Other Services at whatever.website.com and rinse and repeat. Now you can host multiple services, without exposing the open ports directly, and it’s easy for users as there is nothing “confusing” like port numbers, IP addresses, etc.

It’s MS trying to not have another meltdown like CrowdStrike. They tried to do it with Vista, and they pussied out when all the same fucks cried out ‘but we can’t fuck with the OS like a bent-over ho’, and so MS let it slide in the ‘eventually’ to-do bin until it was demonstratably their fault for not clamping down on kernel access.

Also lol “willing to follow”, as I understand it MS isn’t giving them an option or opinion this time around. Gtfo of the kernel or your shit will stop working. I think the deadline is 2026, but it’s been a while since this was all announced.
