Best buy might have stuff to buy, but every time I've walked in looking for a thing and using their sales people it's been a fail.
Around 2011 I was looking for a gaming laptop. They found me a laptop that was great....that had Intel graphics. Great. I went to a different store that hooked me up with a great laptop with a GeForce 745M that I used for like 5 years.

Our brains are wired for what allows us to survive and replicate, not for what is true. It's a difficult thing for human beings to engage in the truth. We have to fight for it and once we've achieved it's not what we wanted it to be because the world outside of us doesn't give a rats ass what we want to be true.
I'd say it's less sad and more a requirement. You can't have a species committing suicide en masse once it reaches a point it can realize the horror of reality.

A lot of the ships burn stuff way worse than diesel, as well.
I worked with bunker oil before, it's the nastiest shit you can imagine. You need to heat it up just to get it to start flowing, and you can burn it all you want in international waters. I was working with it in a jurisdiction with few environmental restrictions, it wasn't acceptable most places...

Not to mention whatever generating station produced the electricity.
I think there's inarguably value in having sustainable power generation, we have to be very careful because it's very easy to leave out a step and think that you have something that is much better than it really is. A lot of our so called Green solutions simply involve move pollution to somewhere they don't care about pollution. We end up looking fantastic and meanwhile we make countries like Russia, china, and Saudi Arabia rich.

If I can afford a $60,000 electric vehicle, I'm probably not in that much trouble when my hydro bill goes way up.
I see the word "neoliberalism" thrown around a lot, but I had to look up what it meant.
It appears that neoliberalism is the idea of less centralized economic control in governments, and a move away from welfare states.
Seems like neoliberalism is a coat of paint slapped over centralized economic control, but the overwhelming government control of the economy has gotten worse, not better over the past 100 years.
Right now, to earn a dollar I need to earn two dollars: One for me, one for the state (and two more for my son who will have to pay for the debt we racked up his entire life and will never pay down ourselves). That being the case, I can't agree that we're living under anything like less centralized economic control than 100 years ago. Both establishment political ideologies seem to occasionally talk about ideas like this, but then grow government. One side grows it by increasing debt, the other by increasing taxes.

The pebble was a much more flexible device. There were a lot of different watch faces, and when you received a message you could use the buttons on the side to send a canned response. Watchfaces could be downloaded on pebble as I recall, but you're stuck with a fixed set of faces on the bip.
Loved my pebble, but the screen would always fail, and then they went out if business.
Nowadays I've got an Amazfit BIP, which isn't as good but does have a way better battery life.

Corporations infiltrating schools to an extent isn't a conspiracy or even controversial. Many schools are proud of its connections to the industries it will be sending students into.
I know in our local course for my field, there's a class that sticks out like a sore thumb, because it's not even part of the core competencies, but it's 10 times harder than anything around it, and it creates lots of students who can't proceed because they can't get that course.

It becomes a really odd sensation when you look up at your tabs and realize most of what you're looking at is your own websites.
This story was out there quite some time ago. Other Chrome derivatives have already said they won't be removing them, but I don't know about chromium.
I just read my son the prelude to beowulf. I have come to the conclusion that I have no idea what the poem is trying to say at any given point.
It's been over 15 years since I read her book, but one thing I remember vividly was the empathy that radiated through the book. At the very beginning she might have thought she was going to "gotcha" the men and prove how evil and nasty they were, but ultimately what she learned was that a lot of parts of being a man are actually nightmarish and there's nothing they can do about it.
The parts where she as a lesbian tried dating as a man was hard to read, but showed that no, just dating women like a man doesn't mean you understand what men go through.
Sounds like the act of empathising with real men instead of the simulacra of men created by academics and the media was a deeply traumatizing experience.
