The pricing is preposterous…no option to forego the windows license, and only a 12th gen i7 and 16gb ram for $1400…on plastic with a shitty keyboard and no IO? Why not just buy a macbook air at that point and jail break it?

Lenovo is absolutely stomping Dell right.

Just recently replayed the No One Lives Forever series with my SO and it holds up so wildly well. Highly recommend, fun gameplay, low grind, excellent narrative storytelling. Slightly more grind for the second game, but still nothing like AAAs now.

It’s more the fact that this movement spends all its energy shutting down Fois Gras and Angora and has had ZERO impact on the wholesale slaughter of sentient beings across the meat industry except to shift a growing portion from farms in the US and Europe where there are some meager standards to farms in asia that have zero scruples and will torture without reserve to make an extra juan.

I mean, not so much a strategy as a natural economic consequence of environmental preferences and higher labor prices in the states. The hypocrisy is having labor and environmental standards in the US that we are happy to let companies circumvent by simply doing that labor elsewhere. Like we’ve all decided it’s fine to wear clothes that involved children getting maimed in factories, as long as they are not our children. And nobody was ever forced to find an economical way to make maim free clothing in the US…or given an opportunity to…
