Comment Bunch of monkeys with money (Score 1) 92

I have exactly zero respect to arab "aristocracy". They are mostly idiots with money inherited from people who got them by getting and selling oil. Extracting natural resources, selling them and claiming you are something more. No. Bunch of monkeys with money who don't even know how to use it wisely.

Wow, this is insane. USA is really getting weirder and more psycho each day. 12 hrs a day?! are you fucking insane? sweet spot? sweet spot my ass, you dumbfuck. Go and work 80 hrs a week if you like. My ass will be resting in the meantime. Google is such a bullshit, along with Apple and Microsoft. I am SO FUCKING GLAD I self host everything and I don't use any of these products.

Of course the leak is in russian part, LOL. It's astonishing that russian part didn't blow up right away, knowing russian care for details, hahaha. Also, I am not surprised that roscosmos is calm about it. They are incompetent to the point that they will ignore any risk and if something happens, it just happens. Doing anything with russia is meant to fail, and this was always the case.

Such a bullshit argument that tech manufacturers like Apple fed us with as well. Soldered, or integrated in SoC RAM won't give you any dramatic improvements of performance. The claim is there to justify selling you new hardware every so often, usually the shorter time between purchases the better. And nobody even cares about e-waste, which is huge problem as well.

Soldered RAM is such a bullshit. I don't care about saved space. Heck! I could even cope with bigger smartphone if it provides easy way to increase RAM in form of a module, etc. Same, obviously, for a computer. But I do realize that most people are not tinkerers and care about superficial and cosmetic shit like "it's lightweight and slim". They will never understand, nor they care about the fact that this comes at a price [literal and as a side effect]. You get worse performance, frequent overheating, no upgradability, etc. I am always ready to pay more to get exactly what I need, like possibility to expand on my own hardware in the future. Maybe there's a niche for people like me, because I know I am definitely not the only one.
