Trust me, I’ve played GTA Online since the day it launched (or the week afterwards rather since the servers were really shit at launch), they only ever did anything about cheaters if they cheated money.

I remember all the early money exploits and car duplication glitches, those were usually hotfixed in a day while other (game-breaking) bugs existed for years…

Another reason why I’m not holding out for GTA VI… Rockstar has changed a lot since GTA V, and not in a good way.

Manjaro and SoftMaker Office works just as well

Every single person who wears glasses would drop them in a second if any other viable and sustainable alternative shows up.

Not really, glasses have long since become a fashion statement and many people wear some without needing them.

I need glasses to correct my heterotropia and even if there was some magic cure for that I’m not sure if I’d stop wearing my glasses to be honest; I kinda like them and how they make me look.

like Model M

Imagine a laptop with a low-profile buckling spring keyboard… just click-clacking away in Starbucks, annoying everyone around you but you don’t care because you have the greatest keyboard ever

No, as far as I know the first GPD Win had one even

It really seems like every other review of a ThinkPad is written by someone who’s constantly whining about the dimensions of the device (too thick, to bulky) and/or the design, with most of them ending up begging Lenovo to remove the useless nub thing on the keyboard because no one uses it anyways and while they’re at it a larger touchpad and better speakers and bla bla…

Basically, most reviewers expect everything to be a MacBook clone and can’t cope with the fact that business users don’t necessarily care about a fancy design.

They didn’t take the TrackPoint away, did they?!

Edit: They really did… Way to kill a brand guys. I blame every goddamn tech journalist who wanted it gone, fuck you so much.

Yep, that same old BSR mechanism that was invented in the mid-80s. Decent casette players use Tanashin mechanisms (or clones rather since Tanashin itself doesn’t make them anymore AFAIK) and as long as they have metal flywheels and proper erase heads they’re ok.

Forget about 3-Head Closed Loop Dual Capstan, though, you’re never gonna find that on a modern deck.

I like how they used a shitty cheaply made chinese cassette radio for the front picture. I can’t even really fault them; all the remotely decent ones are decades old and collector’s items…

Same goes for turntables, decent new ones that are selling for a couple of thousand dollars are still garbage compared to even an entry-level Technics deck from the 80s.

Sounds super wasteful… It seems like the bigger the threat of climate change fucking up all of us the bigger the number of CEOs shooting shit into space and shitty “innovative” start-ups being founded

Interesting they would recommend that, I mean it’s pretty cool of them but they sell antivirus software that AFAIK is only available for Windows.

Almost like they care more about giving good advice than making money… Impossible.
