  • I refer back to my original comment then, who the fuck wants to do that?

    You get to be a full time interviewer, with any bad decisions you make fucking up the planet. The ulterior motives may not exist initially but you can be sure that someone will convince your A-team there are “better” ways to do things.

    No thank you, give me 7 extra hours per day to enjoy myself with only 1 hour needed to sleep.






  • I will never install Linux because I’ll never trust that it’ll be easier to use than windows, and that’s all I want.

    I can’t count the number of people that have told me I should be on Linux and that if I use Mint it’ll be a piece of perfect cake, despite me also seeing comments like this on a pretty regular basis.

    Why is it that so much of the community REFUSES to acknowledge any shortcomings? Almost like it’s their child and you’re personally attacking their parenting by suggesting its not flawlessly simple.


  • Hopefully they’re a bit more humble these days then. I won’t lie, it makes me happy to know some people like that got what was coming to them. A bitter prick I might be but after watching my wife teeter on the brink of collapse working on the wards I have no sympathy for anyone who’s chosen to believe anything but the overwhelming scientific consensus.

    If you need to believe that EVERYTHING the government does is wrong then you’re as bad as people who believe that everything they do is good. Unfortunately the pandemic seemed to create swathes of people like that who reduce an argument all the way down to absurdity.

    I think in your position I wouldn’t be able to help myself, maybe I wouldn’t directly make fun of his incontinence but I’d probably ask if he remembers when he used to call me diaperface or something like that, just a sly reminder to him what a cunt he was.





  • My pc has lasted 14 years (and I expect another 40) and been capable of playing every game in that time because I’ve been able to upgrade it without dropping thousands at once.

    Apple products are good for sure, but they don’t let the consumer choose very much. Sometimes that’s good (I always advocated apple products for my grandparents) but more often than not it’s just annoying.

    I buy a new android phone every 3ish years and give my old one to my mum, she’s never had one break yet so all mine have had at least 5-6 years life before she upgrades to my latest old one (and possibly it still has years left). I don’t buy the idea that Apple phones last longer than Android at all.


  • What upgrades? Not doubting you, just curious what you’ve been able to do.

    That was kinda the point I was making because apple don’t really let you upgrade hardware so if you want an improved computer better go spend a couple grand on our shiny new one with a 0.2mm thinner screen!

    They definitely make good products, and I advised my grandparents to stick to apple because it’s more intuitive for a non techy person, and because they’re all identical and customer support would be easier to deal with.

    Phones matter a bit less I suppose because we’re not all upgrading hardware in android phones, they did recently lose a court case for deliberately throttling speeds on old devices though didn’t they?
