Date a 17 year old when he was 30. Just sex predator stuff.

A. Who gives a fuck if Stamos didn’t actually shave his head.

B. Fuck Dave Coulier.

Unskippable ads, required downloaded updates, region restrictions…

Nah, I’m downloading that fucking car, I’m done giving movie studios chances to be reasonable.

They were good for a bit, but they are a slave to stock value and their finance bros will take every opportunity to squeeze you for revenue, ruining every experience.

One man’s waste is another man’s gold…

What you said:

“the battery of the Pixel sucks balls.”

I was shocked because I took you at face value and thought maybe I got lucky with mine.

Then you started talking shit about your phone working for weeks at a time and and I thought, “Who has a smartphone that works for weeks at a time without charging?”

So I looked it up. You basically have a special use phone with a battery twice the size of everyone else’s. Then you get on a thread talking about Graphene OS and say, “Pixel batteries sucks balls.”

Then to try and support your argument, you pull up a review that just says it “doesn’t quite live up to the standard”

From the article YOU posted:

“The average result for smartphones on our test is to post a time that’s just shy of 10 hours.”

The Pixel 8…posted a time of 9 hours and 50 minutes on our test."

So the worse thing you can say is the Pixel’s batteries are average.

So like a typical redditor, you’re just shooting your bitch mouth off, half cocked, spouting bullshit, pretending you know what you’re talking about.

If you were really trying to be informative, you would have said something along the lines of, “There are phones that are designed to have much longer battery life. But oh yeah, almost every other feature will be worse.”

But you said, “PIXEL BATTERIES SUCK BALLS”, and then provide a review that places them right at the average.

You started this conversation. Think about that next time you want to post something stupid

For the record, I looked it up. The pixel falls in line with most other mainstream phones. Depending on the model it can be in the lower half, sometimes upper half, but always top ten.

Your phone seems to be specifically designed for ruggedness and battery life.

In fact of all the reviews I can find, about your phone they essentially say: it works ok as a phone but hey, I can throw it against a wall and it has awesome battery life.

So calling out the Pixel specifically and using the Oukitel as a metric is just straight up fuckery.

That’s the kind of crap that needs to be left on Reddit. Go back there to post your gatekeeping bullshit.

I disagree. I think that claiming something “sucks balls” because it will only last two days of normal use before dying, if you don’t charge it all all, is absolutely ludicrous.

If I just text and leave my screen dim, I could get a whole week out of my phone. But that’s not why I got a smart phone. I got a smart phone so I could use it, not see how long I could get the battery to last.

Great. I don’t need that. That’s not even close to a selling point.

I guess if I needed to hike without a power source for a week, it would be.

I’ve almost never had an issue. Like ever, unless I forget to set my phone on a charger when I went to bed. And even then, it would just be in the single digits by the end of the second night.

I think I’ve had my phone die on me twice since I’ve had it (Pixel 6 Pro).

All of my points have been vibes?

They were specific examples.

Lol, you’re a fucking dumbass that will refuse to listen to any argument that might actually cast doubt on your fantasy.

It’s called cognitive dissonance and makes you no better than a trumplican.

Capitalism sucks for the same reason Communism sucks. For the same reason Libertarianism would REALLY fucking suck.

Because people fucking suck.

People will always abuse the power they have to keep/accrue more of it.

Look at unions. Absolutely necessary for workers to unite and fight being taken advantage of by the companies who see them as nothing more than a number on a sheet. But then they can become the problem. (Look at the police unions for a perfect example.)

Religion. It was a great tool that helped raise civilization from small tribes. It created ethical mores that cemented the value of the individual. Then the ones that became powerful went on to become institutions of manipulation and control

There needs to be a balance and Communism is not it.

The original commenter is right. This is a stupid meme.

I would be willing to pay an initial setup fee followed by some maintenance fee. I would expect the initial fee to be significant due to a custom setup/requirements. (I am talking just setup, not cost of hardware/ physical installation).

Unique home network with 2 managed switches.

Self hosted security DVR, automated computer backup, photo backup, network drive for document storage and then self hosting a Jellyfin server along with a torrent service.

(I am sweating just thinking about trying to set that up)

Storage will be a RAID setup where I can just upgrade by throwing a new drive into an open slot and replace (as necessary) existing drives by just swapping them out and server automatically handles the data management.

I have a VAGUE idea of what that takes

Maintenance would cover service calls to resolve problems due to security updates/patches, end of life upgrades, normal planned maintenance type of stuff.

User caused issues should be extra :) (i.e. I was just trying to install a Minecraft server)

Couple hundred bucks, at least, for setup. And that seems cheap.

I would pay $10-20 a month for a maintenance fee after an initial setup fee.

I would MUCH rather give my money to an individual sysadmin than a corporate megalith that will use my membership to force an arbitration clause to any future service of theirs I use. Fuck the mouse. Fuck em all. I tried to do it right and that still want enough for them.

I would be happy if I could pay you to just set up and periodically check my setup. I only say that because I would probably want to put together something that cost more than $150. But I am absolutely overwhelmed by what I don’t know. Every tutorial I read gives me more questions than answers.

I just want to self host, share it with a close circle of friends, and keep everyone else’s noses out of my business.

They looted the old structures (what was left to loot) then peed on them and said, “These are mine now.” (A professor I had once said, “What the barbarians didn’t do, the Barberini’s did.”)

On one hand, it helped preserve some significant and important art/architecture.

On the other hand they looted, “christ-washed”, and destroyed so much. Even their own art over the centuries.

I don’t think you’ve seen some of these movies if you think it has anything to do with how sad it made them.

Imagine if D&D hadn’t gotten fired, how much worse that trilogy would have been.

Still, Disney seems incapable of recognizing good vs bad writing.

You are right, we’ve gotten some pretty awesome content, but then they fuck away most of the movies.

I just saw this meme, though it was funny. Showed it to my friend and he said almost exactly this.

It makes perfect sense now that I hear it.

One of my all time favorite games.

Just a high res port of the original I can play on my PC would be enough for me.

I did not care for the Lord of the Rings.
