A guy that came in as an LPO to a company I worked for used to brag about his last job. He worked for a non-profit and his whole entire job was to find ways to make money off of it. Tax loopholes, legal scams, etc. He said it was his favorite job because it was like solving a puzzle every day.

So gross.

Anyway, the top brass really liked him and followed all his plans for our company. Now it is in Mexico and the main facilities are shut down.

Lol, flagged as inappropriate 🤣

In which case, thank you.

Yeah, Leatherman seems to have come out ahead. I used the Wave2 for a while, and most folks I know have Leatherman multi-tools. The lack of spring on the pliers took a long time to get used to. The Gerber pliers and scissors springs are still going strong, so I never bought the “it is just going to fail” argument for not having them. The Gerber also had external access tools decades before people were praising the wave for its originality in having external tools lol. Honestly those are two selling points that kept me from ever getting a new multitool…well, now there is sentimental value for a tool that has been through hell with me and is still strong…but I probably won’t be recommending Gerber any time soon.

Gerber Legend 800 Multitool

The one I got from a PX the year after it was released is epic. Have carried it for 23 years. It has seen everything and outside of scraping the knife sharpish again, has never been maintained. I misplaced it for a bit (under friends driver’s seat for about a year) and couldn’t find a replacement “upgrade”. Did the Leatherman wave2 for a bit. Couldn’t take it, hit up eBay, got 3 more Gerber L800s (later release, still in boxes)…so bad. They just felt cheaper. When we stumbled upon my old Gerber, I kept the new ones for parts. Replace my knife with a new one…it already has rust dots on it. My old one after decades of abuse and being sharpened to half it’s starting width, doesn’t have a spot of rust on it.

ANYWAY…yeah…what OP said.

Everyone I know in tech uses android. People that want capable handheld devices choose android. People that want a basic device that does what the company says and nothing else go Apple. Even I suggest Apple to old people and luddites, it protects itself from them. Oh, and people easily manipulated by social pressures (OMG I need the right colored text bubble!) will deeply overpay for a subpar device.

No implications, it is pointing out facts about hardware (where one is objectively worse). OS is not relevant and was not mentioned. Brand was mentioned because that was the topic.

I looked it up in the Theseusaurus, they are the same.

Just ask chatGPT, it can solve capchas faster than a person. Set up a script and boom, no more capchas issues.

The second windows isnt the only option for “all games without any effort”, it will be dead.

Wow, I forgot I stopped caring about fallout until I saw this. I should go back and play the better ones…wait…I think I still have Hellgate: London…that was a great trainwreck of a game!

More here than R**dit. As a pro-gun Libral (pro-pistol), I had a great chat with a hard-line anti-gun person on here. On Reddit, I would have risked being permabanned for being a maga racist by an idiot mod, then had zero recourse against the idiot mod (totally not a bitter anecdote…).

Here, if I have a heated debate with a conservative, as long as it doesn’t get hostile, I can keep communicating and trying to help them understand my points instead of suddenly talking to [deleted] about [deleted] because some shit mod didn’t like their views.

I like that it is more inclusive than the DUMBster fire that is reddit.

While it is very left leaning, because the entire world is left leaning, other views so get presented and debated (and downvoted), but they are not filtered out and insta-permabanned. It is way more engaging.

Hey, I love calling my Canadian friends “my fellow Americans” or saying “hey, we are all Americans here!”

And I think they really like it too! 🤣

Very subjective. iOS isn’t even in the running for any of my needs

That said, any time and old person or Luddite adult asks for a computer suggestion, I always tell them “if you don’t mind overpaying, get an Apple PC/tablet/whatever or the cheapest iPhone you can find”. Apple limits its users so much that it is perfect for those folks need a device that protects itself from them. Disclaimer: I work in a tech field, so I rarely see the people around me using iOS devices.

Thirding this!

Fellow 100%er (up to 0.7% of players now). Can’t say I did it fast, as I didn’t care until I ran out of things to do, but likely 2.5k hrs before I did it, now 4k hrs in and it is still a go-back-to game for quick 30min runarounds.

It’s the interrobang. It literally means “?!” Like WTF?! But in one symbol. It mattered when “cost per letter” or typesetting spacing mattered. I still like it and use it often enough. As for chess, honestly, yeah, it could be used for that.
