    Tried to import an e-reader from china $153 - duty fee $88.12 or 57.6% item value plus other fees. I still don't own an e-reader :/

    That's not very long ago when it comes to shipping from China.

    Friend of mine had a custom case for his PC shipped from China, thing took like month and a half. The long wait is normal.

    youtube is borderline unusable in incognito mode. The search bar never provides what you're looking for, you've got to actively filter out shorts (which doesn't filter all shorts), half the shit is unrelated, and after a few results it just starts suggesting unrelated videos to my search

    Consider just using Google: https://www.google.com/search?q=youtube+sucks+-youtube.com/shorts&udm=7

    Search has nothing to do with incognito mode. That's just YouTube being its regular shitty self.

    Also, you can further narrow search to just a single site like so without quotes. "site:youtube.com"

    Android pushes out a bad change, so what does he do? He fucking buys an iPhone instead of using GrapheneOS.

    Pretty sure the revenue from the video more than makes up for the purchase while also being topical and inputting minimal effort

    Algorithmic simp - On that note, had a customer email in that the product they purchased was Made in China and they demanded a return in result - Sent from my iPhone was at the bottom of their email. Pointed out to them that Apple manufactures them in China and he responded that he used the product, liked it, is keeping it and actually really likes Chinese products - I'm still unsure if elaborate trolling or just retarded

    saw a job listing for a "TikTok & Content Marketing Assistant" that, amongst other social media stuff, wanted you to "Research and forecast TikTok trends" and asks that you have "High proficiency with ChatGPT (or similar AI tools)" and just about lost it

    Apply for the job. Get paid to post bullshit videos. Use Powerpoint to dress up said bullshit videos as "professional marketing". Make sure to throw the "AI" word into your presentations somewhere.

    Well the last two weeks has been something. My main laptop bit the dust and I hope my HDD is not gone with it. I really hate installing windows 11 but I got to have it because of the required Lockdown browser. Thank God I have some backup laptop laying around. I wonder why they don’t make a Linux version lol. Not to mention I been avoiding every online platform as I feel everyone has gone apeshit everywhere. Maybe I should take up smoking some weed at this point.

    I wonder if we will ever get good optimized operating systems for computers. I know we do but I mean if Windows will ever be like that. But I
    doubt it.

    I mean... Every Windows up to 8.1 was pretty damn well optimized. Even Vista was rather optimized considering everything new it had to run, though 7 definitely improved optimization. But that took a couple years so I don't know if that counts.

    It’s way too easy to get caught up with the world sometimes yet we end up forgetting about what we hold dear to us.

    It was a 6 year old one. I think the chargeing port on it went bad as it’s not getting a charge for any plug. I unplugged it when it was off then turned it on and it crashed during the boot up screen and has not turned on since.
