I had an HP laptop that melted, but they voided the warranty when I unplugged it to stop it melting.

I avoided their products since then. Fucking $1200 gone.

I also have an HP printer and if I were to ever use HP toner it’s over $1000 for the 4 toners. But the generics are way under $100.

I avoid HP!

In the mid 2000s I had a little TV with a PlayStation 2 console, but going over bumps scratched the games so I took it all out. It was fun for a while.

If I were to prepare for the internet to be out, I would most likely do the following:

I would go with a mix of 720 for most movies/shows and my favorites at 1080. I would also go for a collection of my favorite music.

Then as an extra download Wikipedia and some Ted talks, and a bunch of YouTube videos to watch offline. I guess some e-books and or PDF. Maybe download some memes and stuff to laugh at.

I never connected my TV to the internet, I use a computer, an Apple TV or other box like that, etc always using external hdmi devices.

LLM is just a “random sentence generator“

I just made a post on discord about this, and I link to alternatives such as a matrix group, signal chat, my YouTube channel, etc. if I am locked out, then I hope my followers can follow me to the new place, whatever that is.

Practice daily, any chance you get. Then see how far you get and if you enjoy doing it.

I see throughout history things have their ups and downs. I look forward to the next up.

One time in the mid 2000s my friend and I were on a hike in the mountains and we found a tree that was like a cave, all branches everywhere except a little entrance. Inside we found porn magazines with the pictures ripped out and placed on branches all over the inside of the “cave”. After that we always joked about the porn cave we found.

Futo has grants for open source and sounds close to what you need.

Can you afford your bills and are you happy? That’s what my view is, if you’re happy and can take care of yourself and others then you are doing amazing.

It was be amazing having a business like that, I dream of that. You’re doing great!

I won’t dare to look.

Lots of the frozen margaritas are made with cheap wine, not tequila.

You can easily make your own margaritas using tequila and a flavor mix. You can choose to add 1 shot or several.

Wow, if the games are not on the cart then I’m not buying Nintendo.

I have a Blackmagic 6K camera that records RAW, and a ninja monitor that also records RAW. My 2TB SSD doesn’t hold much footage.

Who the F invested in a random sentence generator? Your being scammed lol

I have been shopping for one for a while, but overwhelmed by how many brands and stuff there are. Is Toto the best choice? Or would an off brand be better value? There’s just so many options. (I do want all the bells and whistles, warm water and warm air, etc)

We will know the best place after whatever event happens. It’s always hard to predict these things with so many variables.

Sometimes my images download with the older date/time stamp, so the images end up with older images in my library.

Back in high school I had 4 girlfriends (at the same time). It didn’t mean anything, we never even kissed lol just hang out and go places. Eventually I realized it was just too much and started to see what I like and disliked about them. It didn’t last long. Then in college I just dated one girl at a time. Then I met this one girl that the teacher put us in a group project, we kept texting and kept in contact with, went on a few dates here and there… and eventually became my wife.
