You can fix the always-on BT wirh a screwdriver, can’t you?

I thought LG and Sony and a few of the other big players still had the self respect to sell TVs that can just be… you know… TVs

What the hell sort of TV are you looking at that requires an online connection to use it as a simple display device?

That’s a serious question. I want to avoid whatever brand you’re talking about like the plague.

Seriously - I’m genuinely baffled at the complete geopolitical ineptitude that occurred in 2014. It was a categorical abrogation of the Budapest Memorandum, which guaranteed Ukrainian territorial integrity and sovereignty in exchange for their surrender of old Soviet nukes based in their territory.

Nobody is going to make a deal like that going forward. The nuclear non-proliferation movement is entirely dead. Nukes are, categorically, the absolute final word in guaranteeing a country’s territorial integrity and sovereignty. There is no substitute. Genuinely, the complete and total lack of meaningful action in the defense of Ukraine was the most apocalyptically stupid geopolitical move that Obama and Merkel made during their stints as leaders of the western world.

No; I mean if it becomes that much pressure after that little time, I’m not sure that’s super normal.

Hours…?

You may want to see a specialist about that, my guy…

It’s like a fuckin’ howitzer when it reaches the release point, for real

just hold your poop in

But now, from a medical professional, so you know it’s legit.

So uh… this is how he reacts when Bloomberg specifically calls him out on his bullshit in an interview?

Fascinating. He’s going to turn off all the big money donors with this shit. He’s essentially proposing to crater the US (and by extension, the world) economy.

Tbh I really want to get my hands on a snapdragon X laptop at some point just to play around with it. The energy efficiency alone makes me very curious.

I was under the impression that most of the issues around getting Linux to work on them was around driver support. As in: people are absolutely able to install an arbitrary OS, but the functionality is just super janky in most cases. Is that not accurate?

I sincerely hope we get to the point where we can see the secret appendices play out. Aside from the obvious implications, I’m quite curious what’s in them.

Given the current context, I genuinely doubt this was done by Sikh separatists. They, if anything, would be friendly to Canada at this point, given they’re holding the Indian government’s feet to the fire over their assassinations. I’m much more suspicious that this was done by Hindu nationalists.

Oh man you’re giving me flashbacks to high school. Haven’t listened to AAF in ages

I knew about the assassinations and the (fully justified) diplomatic beef Canada has with India over their extralegal attacks on Sikh separatists, but still, I did not have “Indian terroristic threats towards Canada Air” on my bingo card

You weren’t there, man!

My thoughts exactly

I unironically think that that’s NK’s logic here, despite the fact that there’s an approximately 0% chance SK would EVER launch an unprovoked invasion of the north.

Huh. That’s actually pretty cool. Not my favorite distro these days for several reasons, but that aside, it’s great to see more robust support on ARM laptops.
