@VD15 I've been wondering what would be the male equivalent of the dogpill. Should we call this the oceanpill?
@icedquinn They'd be too heavy. Not worth it. It's probably easier and cheaper to build 10 regular nukes than putting 1 tungsten rod in space.

Contrary to popular opinion, I'm not dead. Sorry to disappoint.
Where was I? I decided to do an experiment. For the past year, I have used a different account, on another instance, under a different name. There I had a policy of not following anyone unless they followed me first, and following back anyone that followed me, no matter what. I wanted to see what's the worst that can happen, how toxic Fedi can become. I wanted to see Fedi unfiltered. I guess y'all didn't disappoint.
Some of you, I've stumbled upon again. Some I got the pleasure or displeasure of following again (because you followed me first). Some of you I barely got to talk to, and some not at all.
The experience started decent enough, the first half of the year was ok, but later on, the experience became unpleasant enough that I started opening Fedi rarer and used it less. In a way, that is a positive in itself, but there are better ways to quit social media. Turns out, if you just follow everybody on Fedi, your timeline has the potential of becoming useless trash very fast.
If you're curious about my alt identity, I'm sure you can find it. There are enough clues out there and I'm not planning on deleting that account or erasing any of my posts. But I will not name the account myself, and don't expect a confirmation from me if you confront me with it. Personally, I'm amazed no one made the connection already.
What will I do going forward? I don't really plan on coming back here, nor on continuing with my alt identity either. I might be here for a day or two, but I'm moving on. Where? Who knows. I'm not planning on telling anyone anyway.
I've met interesting people on Fedi, and I don't expect to forget them anytime soon. But, I don't see much usefulness in Fedi anymore. It was an exciting platform because I met people with views different (mostly more extreme) than what I've seen before. But this has grown stale. And since I prefer anonymity and fading away in a crowd, let's say that too many people for my tastes, on either account/identity, have come to know me.
So I'm gonna start from scratch somewhere else. I haven't even decided where yet, so don't ask.
I laughed with some of you, and I fought with others. I bear no ill will to anyone. I've seen plenty of you burdened with too much hate, so I hope you guys find enough happiness in your lives, so that you forget about hating. I hope all of you get to be happy.
Thank you Igel, @Awoo and BigCums for introducing me to this world. I shall continue to awoo, drool over Asian waifus, and make big cums for as long as I live.
Goodbye for now. Have a good 2024!

Ebook readers have 2 distinct ways of refreshing the image.
The normal, full refresh, first pushes a negative of the current drawn image, then it pushes the new image. This is quite slow.
The alternate way is a fast refresh, that lacks that negative phase. This allows for fast text scroll, but comes with the downside of a distinct ghosting effect. It's usually not noticeable for text (especially for modern e-ink displays), but it can be very noticeable for GUI elements. Which is why you usually get normal refreshes for GUI stuff, which increases the lag you feel.
@thor
Wait till you discover you can run a ftp server on the thing, and do wireless transfer.
@solohan83 @thor
Yup. Also remember that e-ink displays are inherently very laggy compared to anything else, so even if the CPU is blazing fast, you wouldn't be able to tell. Most of the lag is probably from the display.

2023 barely began in some parts of the world, and it's already cursed.

^This. Although I wouldn't call Sh0e retarded, I'm definitely not interested.

The average 80-90s actor is just far better than the average 2010-2020s actor.
@nixCraft
I wonder, how good would the average modern pixel art look through a CRT TV.
