Ha that hit hard. This is basically the system I just upgraded to. Well at least it’ll run the game well.

I’ve been meaning to watch that one.

omg I’m ded 💀
Ok well 2001 was kind of an outlier… you’re not wrong. It was slow when I watched it in the 90s lol.
But, watch something like The Maltese Falcon. Which I did recently.
I had no issue following. It didn’t plod along in my view (of course I’m middle aged and don’t do tiktok). But it also wasn’t rapid fire constant clamor. There was space to absorb and reflect as the story evolved. And you need that space because it’s mentally challenging.
One thing that hit hard is how it is a good, interesting story above all else. Definitely gives theater vibes and made me realize how hollow a lot of movies are.
Anyway. There are lots of examples from the 60s and 70s that are slower paced and a lot less busy and chaotic than modern films for sure.
My main uses for them weren’t ever desktop but tinkering with simple robotics / telepresence, automation, aprs / mapping, 3d printing (octoprint). Seems like the 5 is overkill for that. I guess there’s always the pi zero.
For all of us bitter people who couldn’t get an RPi 3 let alone 4 for less than a fortune during the recent dark times…
We’d like to thank you: we’re going to ringfence all of the Raspberry Pi 5s we sell until at least the end of the year for single-unit sales to individuals, so you get the first bite of the cherry.
So I will probably preorder one because why not.
I guess because it’s a cheap way to do embedded computing? Idk.

Indeed; my bad. Hadn’t had my ☕ yet I guess lol
Our newer, faster CPU is complemented by a newer, faster GPU: Broadcom’s VideoCore VII, developed here in Cambridge, with fully open source Mesa drivers from our friends at Igalia.
Idk about fully but the above is a good change imo
Idk I think all o’ that new-fangled com-putin stuff is a fad.
Cuz I’m sick of not really owning my media. I have to hope the streaming company stays around, doesn’t magically lose records or my purchase, etc.
Love me some golden axe! Brings back very fond memories.
Me irl spending an hour trying to figure out why vscode reformats pasted code by 2 spaces when I’ve set 4 spaces for indent as the default… so I could write ten lines of code (as a hobbyist)…
More reading social media posts than reading books, probably. If one doesn’t make the connection between the sounds and the proper written word, then you might be more likely to make mistakes like “would of” instead of “would’ve” (which is my pet peeve, incidentally)
Damn that’s impressive. I had a poodle as a kid that had a vocab … but not that big! She knew 2 or 3 toys and family members and a couple basic things like outside or food. If she heard the word cat in casual conversation she would go looking and barking at the back sliding glass door.

Sounds a lot like me. That’s not communism, that’s just being a decent person. One that respects others and just wants everyone to live a good life without being the target of hate and harassment.
No. Just no.
And get off my lawn, ya whippersnapper.
