When my m2 air is eventually supported by linuxbproperly the debian installation will happen.

I don’t think the size difference works in the favour of lmg.

If gamers nexus puts out pretty much industry leading day one reviews out on every launch with 5-6 people and LMG with labs and 100+ employees can’t then there’s something wrong.

GN has a point LMG shits out videos without QC and it’s starting to bite them of late. The water block review is the perfect example of just being stupid. Why not just test the item with the right product and judge it for what it is as opposed to turning it into a joke review where no matter what the product is going to look bad.

The short circuit thing with the mouse is also a bit ridiculous.

But the charts are the main thing, I’ve noticed it myself over the years that lmg charts made no sense relative to gamers nexus or HUb or even jayz 2 cents which meant something was wrong with the testing.

Piracy and software was already really easy to use a decade ago ( sick beard / couch potato ) it’s just that the services at the time were good enough that you could watch practically everything on Netflix +1 so it wasn’t really a problem to stomach the cost. now I need 7 different subscriptions to watch shows I’m interested in which is a ball ache

If you have a pi kicking around or a docker instance of pihole you can use it to take over dhcp of the router and then set the dns servers in pihole.

That’s what I do currently on my home hub

That campaign they ran against Corbyn was truly something else, for fucks sake

The fact the BBC got away with that sums it up nicely, People say Corbyn was unelectable but honestly, he was insanely popular until the attacks started. Speaking to people in person in my life what I noticed is everyone started to say Corbyn was bad but they had no reason to give other than " He's promised too much he can't do what he says " or " I just don't like him "

Clearly the establishment knew what he was going to cost them with state run Electric, Railways & dialing back on the private healthcare

If you're genuinely looking for Linux Laptops I'd take a look at https://starlabs.systems/pages/starfighter

There's also https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/index.php

Press a massive X to doubt on reduction of micro transactions. See halo infinite on that front.

The reason I personally don’t want this as someone who does not own a PlayStation or a Nintendo console and likely never will is this leads to a future where Microsoft builds up enough IP where suddenly everything is locked into Microsoft game pass and their own store and windows that anyone wanting to use a different platform may as well just fuck off.

It’s the first step on the road to anti consumer practices that Microsoft has historically always done.

There's also another side to it which is that there's a very big difference in what TOS fans and TNG era fans would consider proper Star Trek.

I've always held the belief that SNW is very much a spiritual successor or prequel to TOS, and while TNG was a sequel in some ways to TOS it was a very different tone and style and it's some what jarring for people who never really got into TOS to accept as Star Trek.

People think that witty banter and quips were something new to SNW but TOS was full of them the entire relationship of the Trio was built on them, or the goofy scenes where someone would do something silly like Scotty getting drunk with comedic music etc.

This combined with as you mentioned above some slight alterations to canon drives people up the wall and it's just silly. Enjoy the show for what it is or just don't watch it.

Is journalism biased because it doesn’t agree with your worldview? That’s one hell of an authoritarian take.

Really feels like we are in that sort of a world these days where if something comes from someone you don't like or agree with it must automatically be fake.

The legacy of 2016

This is pretty much me today or me any time I told any friends about Linux

I like that even Elon fanboys I know have started to realise what a complete idiot he is, how you can fuck up running Twitter so bad is incomprehensible.

Hopefully with him burning it into the ground people see him for the charlatan he is and stop giving him so much respect.
