The balls would just roll right off the cliff in every direction lol

Sorry- yeah I meant the dongles, not the docks. And yeah, no passthrough power on the puck either.

I've had similar experiences as you with the docks, lol.

I am so sorry. Comcast is truly a scourge

I was gonna say, Dell makes a ton of crap but their dongles are solid. I've been using the DA310 "puck" for over half a decade and it still works like new. I think they're like 50 quid.

The other thing is to just avoid those no-name Amazon ones like the fucking plague. I've worked IT long enough to know that they pretty much all die within a year, that is if they function at all.

Stupid children clearly don't understand that trump is more important than my family

On holiday and I almost collapsed while ordering a doner kebab in Helsinki yesterday because I forgot to eat after walking around the city for 5 hours straight lol. This meme resonated hard

I would seriously confront this dude if you haven't already and assuming you have a chance to. This type of thing drives me nuts.

Burn it down. Wait, no, that would contribute to climate change

Preach, dude.. I'm sadly guilty of this and need to reestablish a good local collection of music again like back in the iPod days.

I get your stance, I do, but you don't think humans are seriously fucking the planet?

I put a lot of thought into your comment today and I'd honestly love to respectfully debate you on this subject. I think immediately labelling people who are worried about over population as "eco-fascists" is really quite odd and makes me a bit worried.

Yes, the main problem is corporations and greed but doesn't it all still come down to our species? What would aliens say? Oh sorry, you're good, it's those other ones in your species that are the bad ones.. ?

I don't specifically have an anti-overpopulation stance myself for the record, I just find your terminology rather .. jaded.

By the tone of your comment you're clearly quite hostile so I'm not sure I should even be engaging, but I felt that I had to. I'd really be happy to debate though, maybe I would learn something.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

OC. Made this with midjourney, hope that's allowed.

She makes it pretty difficult to resist
