20KB of ROM and 5KB of RAM, though that was expandable!

The Commodore 64 came out in 1982 and famously had 64KB of memory.

Didn’t realize this when switching. Went through a whole kerfuffle to cancel the trade in deal.

Phone agent sounded perplexed when I wanted to keep my old Pixel 7 Pro lol.

Some carriers lock the bootloader until you’ve paid off the phone.

Phones produced for sale through Verizon have a permanently locked bootloader.

If they’d just textured the background shape to actually look like a barrel it would be pretty good actually.

It doesn’t need to exist at all. Parents should take responsibility for their children’s internet usage.

I’m not mad, I’m pointing out that the insinuation that eating food being purely a matter of survival without the consideration of enjoyment would not be very fulfilling.

If you make the argument that something as basic as consuming sustenance should not be enjoyed, anyone else could make the same argument about any of life’s enjoyments or comforts that you otherwise partake in.

If you live only for needs and don’t look past the base tier of Maslow’s Hierarchy, that’s a miserable existence.

Oh you live in a climate controlled building with electricity? Existence is more about comfort to you than survival.

The Secret Service actually does a lot more, but it’s never really reported about. They investigate financial and cybercrime too.

Then there shouldn’t be such laws. It’s not the government’s job to parent.

I love my Pinecil V2. It was cheaper than my 40W entry level Weller station and heats up way faster. I run it off my Anker USB power supply and also my Anker USB power bank. The power bank only outputs 30 or 40 watts though so I might upgrade that in the future. High wattage power banks are expensive though :/

I just upgraded to a Pixel 7 Pro recently. Previously I had a Galaxy S8 that worked fine for about 7 years. It was really just showing its age. It still holds a charge halfway decently.

Might try installing GrapheneOS on it at some point.

It feels fairly high quality though and I’m hoping I’ll be able to get 7 years out of it like the Galaxy.

When I went to the Grand Canyon, I was shocked how many people stand right on the edge of a 300 foot drop. In a lot of areas, there are no guard rails (nor should there be), but so many people are just fucking stupid.

I joked you could probably kill someone by startling them with an airhorn but honestly it might work.

When is it next being acted on? I’d like to actually mail a physical letter explaining my concerns. Maybe they’d like it since they’re dinosaurs.

The laptop 3080tis have 16 gigs? The desktop ones only got 12.

There are rare circumstances where a discharge can be truly accidental. Older or defective designs that can cause a discharge if the gun is dropped.

It’s so dumb that Windows hides file extensions by default. They could just flip a toggle.
