I would say, that not even Western society was yet ready to adapt to an unlimited calloroc availability, so what TF do you expect from the cat eaters?

Temperature dropped 22°c in 2 days. From 30 to 8.

HOW??? :alexjoneslick:

This post is how you prove the existence of God. Not by so.e stulid wordplay. But by showing his will.

WHAT? YES. OF COURSE WE ARE ONE FAMILY. MAYBE AN ABUSIVE FAMILY, WHERE FATHER GETS RID OF HIS STARWING CHILDERN ONCE THE KIDS DO NOT GET ALL A'S IN SCHOOL. A PERFECT FAMILY FULL OF LOVE :blobcatdefecit:

I guess when they say "we" they are including the invaders in themselves.

Fine, we can have it that way.

Před týdnem mi teploměr na severní straně baráku ukazoval 32°C
Dneska ukazuje 6°C

This reminds me of our physics teacher. How, he made me realize just how weird it is to be just naturally nerdy.

We were doing electronics. After explaining to us, what diode is, and the difference between AC and DC, he asked us, to "think if we could convert AC to DC using diodes."

Well, I thought about it for 2 minutes, made a scatch and brought it the next lesson. He looked at me with an unironic shock. Then said, that no student had done this "task" before. WTF??????

I never felt like a fucking nerd that much. 🥶

It's kinda weird, that most of these revolutionary technologies like AI come in waves of failure, each followed by "that will never be mainstream".

Electric cars. In Czech republic, you can see these "cars" serving around the train stations. They are still working, even though they are older then the nation itself. But still, it took nearly 30 years since their success till anyone admited, that electric cars are in fact possible market. VR started with virtual boy, and then the Oculus craze. Yet, there is still scepticism, even though the only limiting factor right now is the price.

Why is it so hard, to recognize a technology, that is just limited by price and lacking implementation? It should be quite obvious.

@applejack
> how much can you fit into a phone without huge diminishing losses and increasing prices?

While, that is a valid argument, most people do already put more money to their phones, then to their PCs.

This will unironically give you trauma for the rest of your life.

@applejack
Well, I meant editing on a phone put to a desktop mode. Obviously. Samsung already has this feature in the new phones. But yes, most of the software made for phones does look totally retarded on this, in the exact same way, as most desktop software used to look when ported directly.

@applejack
Well, yeah. Obviously, people need the power ocasionally, and I believe, that one day, a "home server" will be used for these things. But what do you mean by this?

> does anyone actually edit documents on a phone instead of a laptop? Sounds awful

That is actually my entire point. I stopped using a laptop, since the phones got way too useful. And Editing documents can be done on exactly the same software as on a linux PC. It really doesn't matter what HW you connect the keyboard, mouse and monitor to.

Alzo, most zoomers are satisfied with the graphics of Genshin anyway. And I don't blame them.

I feel absolutely insane...
It should be obvious to everyone, so why are people trying to look like they don't see it?

Microsoft windows is FUCKED. It will die. There will be no funeral. It will just disappear.

Why? Because desktop computer days are numbered. The phones with USB-C will replace them completely. Let me explain. Right now, we have one device for office work and gaming, and another device to take with us everywhere. That 2nd device is our phone, and thanks to the cloud services, we can sometimes do some of the work/gaming on the go.

But why? I personally cannot find a single reason to not use the phone for literally everything. For most people, computer work means editing documents, looking up maps, and playing youtube on a 2nd monitor while playing minecraft on 3rd. Well, here is the concept. You leave 3 monitors on your desk, keyboard, mouse and a single USB-C connector. You connect your phone as soon as you get home, and all the data is already there. No need to sych. Your phone is being charged, so you won't forget that task ever again, and your office/gaming setup is ready. And as soon, as you go to work, you just take your phone and you're done.

So, as soon as this (I think inevitable) switch happens, microsoft will never be able to push itself into the mobile market. They barely tried the last time, and that was a decade ago. Now, the Apple brainlets are even more fanatical, and Google knows what it's doing.

But... I somehow believe, that there is an oportunity for some companies to jump onto this. Imagine, if a linux phone was actually being marketed as an "all in one office/gaming PC". People would see the new OS as an obviously different thing from their phones.

Thanks for reading this rant.
