Yeah, but your fridge doesn’t break every six years. I’m totally on team repair (FrameWork will be my next laptop when this one can’t go on any further, my shoes can be resoled, I just touched up my jacket, etc) but a 10x premium doesn’t exactly make sense, even when you factor in that repairability is unfortunately a niche feature these days.

CF being short for what, in this case?

So I looked them up, and the cheapest home-style refrigerator they sell costs $10,000. Am I missing something or are they really just that expensive?

Good point.

Russia already stays far away from Ukrainian controlled Ukraine with their planes, because Ukraine has the ability to shoot them down. We could improve that ability, but they’re still not getting close to flying over land they don’t control.

They gave up pointless cruelty precisely because doing so cost them nothing.

That’s not how math works.

Recently I downloaded Chrome for some testing that I wanted to let separate from my Firefox browser. After a while I realized my computer was always getting hot every time I opened chrome. I took a look at the system monitor: chrome was using 30% of of my CPU power to play a single YouTube video in the background. What the fuck? I ended up switching the testing environment over the libreWolf and CPU load went down to only 10%.

But why would your question be “is this bad?” Just learn a little about it and decide for yourself.

They just pushed an email announcement out, which is probably where OP heard about it.

I wonder if we could force a world where browsers are purely donation supported.

There’s only one solution for the US. The world’s fastest bullet train network. Anything less will not do.

The micro SD is 4 TB. Only the full sized SD is 8.

It’s pretty tough to say without looking at comparable recall rates for other companies. My Toyota Corolla had two recalls that I know about while I owned it, and Toyota is known for their reliability. Tesla is just always in the news because they’re always in the news.

My current laptop is an i7 with 16 GB of RAM. Hardware requirements have plateaued pretty hard unless your trying to run something that requires the latest GPU.

Booting from a full power off state?

I agree with you, and I never delete what I post unless it was straight-up a glitch or a typo or something. But, I still think other people should have that option if they want it.

Nah, people should be able to take back what they said. No humans in all of history had to account for every thing thing they ever said. Better to let the past be forgotten. Can that be abused? Sure. But I think there’s value in letting people realize what they said was bad and take it down.

If we put in a mag-lev system that averages 250 mph from station to station, an overnight sleeper train across the country becomes extremely attractive.

Ah my bad, I misread that.
