Nope. I've spent similar amounts of money in the past on a great Lenovo gaming laptop. It was phenomenal for the first two years. But then after the first major Windows update, it seemed like the drivers became less reliable and issues started popping up here and there. Another year so later and everything started to bog down. Reformatting it fixed it for a little bit, but the same issues came up again eventually.

I've heard good things about the surface, so maybe if you go the direct from Microsoft route it could be better? I'm just burnt out though. I don't see myself buying another Microsoft product again.

Yep. I use a pixel 6 and a MacBook Air m1. It's the best of both worlds.

They build fantastic laptops.

As a side rant, I just want to say that I've never had a laptop that was able to maintain consistent speed and reliability better than this machine. Every other windows-based laptop I've had has crapped out after 3 years. This thing just keeps on going, regardless of the fact that I've had about 100 tabs and 3 browsers open for the majority of its lifespan.

Does it have layers?

Could you explain why you don't like it?

I actually love the fact that all of the underground, unknown, not officially published music I've liked on YouTube is there with all my other music, including the stuff I've uploaded myself.

And then... just... drop somewhere?

This comic is literally the reason I continue using Lemmy. 100% the best content on the platform

Oh man, I just looked it up. It's beautiful!

Nah but this is all Lemmy is at this point. That sucks. We need more than this.

It's ok that this has a place here. But we need more than this.

Want some hard truths? Blinders off, reddit is still a much better place for content than Lemmy.

Honestly I'm getting tired of it.

Edit - I feel the need to say that there is actually one consistent thing on Lemmy that is fantastic - rpgmemes, specifically the ongoing series about a goblin high priestess playing dnd.

Immigration. But the hyper national party in charge doesn't want that.

Wtf that is weird. @graywolf please explain yourself

[–] figaro@lemdro.id 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I agree, but I don't think in black and white. My Dutch friend is probably completely oblivious to any of that, and he is a good person. Most people are probably in that same situation.

Would it be good for the government (or any government) to come out and apologize for shitty things that happened in the past? If course. But that isn't a reason to use blanket "we hate these types of people" statements seriously.
