Disaster is a bit unfair. It's a bloated dinosaur for sure, but it is an important piece of computing history and it's got some neat tricks.

I hadn't taken note of who made this post. Whoops lol. That being said he also didn't make the image, I've seen that exact meme posted elsewhere. I'm not sure SMCF believes in anything other than pissing off Lemmy.

Windows is a fine operating system. The NT kernel is pretty good, all things considered, and the design and UX of XP, Vista, and 7 were overall pretty peak. The main problem with Windows is and always has been Microsoft. Expose theme 4 lyfe.

No, I completely agree with your comment, liberal capitalism has largely failed to deliver on its promises. I just don't think the posted image itself is a defense of capitalism. It's taking the piss out of people who blame everything on neoliberalism, which is a different thing from saying capitalism isn't bad.

3 years on and its going well, I think:

Oh and they lost the world cup

So true queen. What did you think about the post tho?

I, for one, welcome our cetacean overlords.

I can hold the phone next to the pizza if you want to talk to it

They definitely exist. They're even more obnoxious, too, its like a 55" display that loops tiktok style content. I'll find a photo and report back.

Edit: these sumbitches

you cant just draw a straight line between two places and say "Train!"

Never forget what they took from us. They being the promoters of the ny-chicago electric air line railroad. Also if it were built and the right of way stayed intact we could absolutely build a maglev that could go center to center in 3 hours.

well they are criminals who took a fat shit on the Constitution, ruined our international goodwill, gave elon musk unfettered access to sensitive government systems, killed USAID, started a war, poisoned the food supply, made energy so much more expensive that even "apolitical" people are starting to notice, willingly work with pedophiles, and more.

They are flagrantly incompetent and corrupt. If it's not hard for them to win in '28 we should just pack it all up and nuke ourselves.

I know I'm preaching to the choir here and Thiel is never going to read this but holy fuck. The wealthy do not live in reality.

I'm curious about your power budget. Does that include appliances like water heater, fridge, etc? Or is it just for smart devices?

I'm really impressed by your efficiency. My router alone draws over half your budget. Add the cable modem and a 5GbE switch and that takes me 50% overbudget. And that's just network infrastructure. With everything else in my apartment I'm probably somewhere around 800w, pessimistically.
