I'm going to hang that quote on my wall

No joke though crts are crazy hard to find now. It used to be that thrift stores were full of them, they were left out on curbs to be taken to the dump if they weren't rehomed first. They were famously worthless (you know to most people) and people couldn't give them away, so they threw them away.

...But now they're all thrown away. If you actually try to buy one it'll shock you how much a tv goes for now that would've been $20 at the goodwill a decade ago.

The same thing happened with 90's beige desktop PC's. Awhile ago I wanted to build a sleeper PC out of one of these and thought that I could snap something up for $30 or something. Nope. Check out eBay, the beige towers that didn't get trashed were gutted and listed at triple-digit figures as "retro cases".

With crts or beige PC's, your best bet at this point is to get lucky and find one in the attic of someone who forgot about it and doesn't realize that their prices skyrocketed

Great song, I forgot about it so thanks for reminding me it existed

Am I the only one seeing an astronomically big red flag?

Pfft, whatever. Gasoline can't melt steal beams.

"apologists" lol, the implication that Linux is nefarious or a tragedy or something

Smh at what anime will do to a motherfucker. There's nothing wrong with expecting the audience to read between the lines

The leg fashion is joggers, but joggers are actually pretty dope so it's hard to make fun of them. Snug and out of the way down low, loose and not constraining up high, they're basically the perfect pants.

I'm the opposite, overall I like cilantro (to a point, too much cilantro is definitely a thing), but I do detect a little bit of that soapiness that people talk about. Luckily not too much though, it's mostly minty to me.

Hell of a comment section under this post. I'm actually getting second-hand cringe

What the 1134, squid?

I swear to god, lemm.ee's server has been more reliable for me than reddit's ever was

That song is about a hundred times more relevant now than when it came out

It's literally the geopolitical version of "Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself?"

Don't. Don't even.

I was about to leave the same comment

Did we watch the same movie? The whole plot was that he was making a conscious choice to rip off his friends and colleagues for his own enrichment.

That's got to be llm-generated

Til that maga thinks America was greatest as a monarch's colony. Go figure

Viva la ruffolution!
