Same here. The hardware is not bad but oh boy is the software the biggest pile of shit I’ve ever had to use. And I want to use my librem 5 (linux) phone but you need a stack of pokemon cards as batteries if you want it to last a day. They really should sell a charging deck for spare batteries so you can hot swap them.

I was like 13 when I installed Red Hat and I totally needed to use the book it came with because I had no idea what I was doing.

I haven’t update my phone in a long time. I like how it keeps asking.

Oh yeah back then the graphics cards were cheap by today’s standards lmao

I wouldn’t be surprised. There was even a 3840×2400 monitor in the early 2000s. I wanted one so bad but it cost as much as a car.

I know what you mean, I’m not a big fan of overly saturated displays. And the refresh rate thing is funny. The first time when I saw “Introducing 144hz” I had a giggle my CRT monitor did that already when I was a kid.

I like the last line, they can get bent.

I use a ten year old photography monitor, it’s calibrated, and it’s good for everything I use it for.

Some used to be fun. I had the best success with Plenty of Failure and OkStupid before they became complete trash.

That would suck so bad. I hope someone will give me a double tap and destroy mine when I pass.

I’m sure it’s been going on for a while at this point

Heh the angel of death got to live out a full life. I mentioned this in another post; don’t be surprised if your brain gets cross sectioned and scanned before being cremated.

With all the food recalls, I’m sure plumbing is a high demand job.

Jokes aside; trades suck. If you like hot ass heat, cramped places, constant injuries, buying your own tools, ruining your body before you reach forty, and annoying customers; then it’s the job for you. This is an anecdotal take but yeah it’s not fun. I wouldn’t be exaggerating if I say I wish I did anything else for the last ten years. The money was good but the added pain isn’t worth it.

Yeah I was surprised to see that even like a 100 dollar one gets the job done.

Step one: Catch the Meow. Step two: Make em Meow. Step Three: Kiffs Step Four: Enjoy them following you around afterwards.

Not just cameras, you can get cheap thermal cameras that will help diagnose electrical problems. I need one lol

I agree, mines terrible in low light, the new tech has come a long way. I personally like to do it on hard mode. I mean I used to measure the photograph I wanted to take Ansel Adams style. So more math and planning to just take one shot. Like Adams, I’m amateur photographer and I like to do it for fun.

I mean I was just saying I like to see through my lens with my eye?

I still use my old Nikon; why? Because I can put anything that resembles a lens on it. Or make my own lenses. I made one with a cardboard tube and pieces of a broken lens. Or used a enlarger lens to take pictures. I guess it depends on what you want to do. And well my eyes still work better than digital screens. I mean I don’t need a light meter to estimate shutter speed. But then again, I’m very much into photography.

I don’t know how to understand the anger I feel.
