I switched a few years ago. I've been using windows for over 30 years. They changed a bunch of random shit I had used in the past. I figured I'd give it a shot.

I never went back. I'm not a coder. I don't even like tech very much. I've been really happy with Ubuntu for years.

I wanted something that just worked. It has.

Many leftists are armed already.

Personally, I'm not currently. I struggle with suicidal ideation and have been concerned about having access to guns.

With the rise of fascism, I think it's time.

I feel the same way about gun ownership. I've avoided it as I have depression. Previously, it was a pretty easy decision.

The rise of fascism has changed the calculus for me. It may be time to arm myself.

That probably works well for people who are able to self host.

I use cloud password storage. I don't have the knowledge, time, or inclination to self host.

For me, the most surprising thing about him has been how bad he is with the media.

I knew he was going to be a fascist piece of shit. I'm shocked at how incompetent a public speaker he is.

He's a fucking Senator and can't answer the most softball possible question.

Personally, it's because I don't code

speakers and amplifiers, technologies that existed for decades

This is why I buy used audio gear. The basic guts of the stuff hasn't changed much in the past several decades.

I bought a nice used head unit and speakers 10 years ago. They're 30+ years old now and still work perfectly well.

See if you can find used audio equipment.

About 10 years ago, I was looking for a decent 2.1 system. I had a budget of about $1000usd. On a friend's advice, I went to a used audio shop.

I was able to get an older NAD receiver and nice Boston Acustics speakers for about $750. I found a new Polk sub for $250.

I've been using my system almost daily for 10 years now. It's fantastic and I feel no need to upgrade.

See if you can find a store that sells used audio equipment near you

Another vote for FWD!

AWD is expensive. It's not just the upfront cost of the option. It's also an ongoing cost. An AWD vehicle costs more to insure, maintain, and repair. It will also get less MPG than a FWD car.

These will add up to thousands of more dollars over the lifetime of the car.

Keeping fresh, high quality tires on the vehicle will go a long way towards bridging the gap between FWD and AWD. They'll also cost a hell of a lot less money.

As an American jew, I care as well

Really cool! I didn't know about this yet

This guy was absolutely crushing it at life.

Executive of an airport or illegal gun runner are both badass jobs. Having either of of them would be amazing.

This absolute legend was doing BOTH.

A VR shooter of the Most Dangerous Game

I love this for him

Work on a dirt bike engine I'm rebuilding.

It's going slowly, as it's my first time.

Tell me more about this griddle, please!

I also enjoy spending money on my hobbies. I have a budget I keep for them.

For me, it's motorcycle parts. I have two older bikes I ride.

I love shopping for parts! It's definitely entertainment for me.

He screwed over Conan when Conan got the Tonight Show.

He never apologized or expressed any regret for the numberous hurtful jokes he made about Monica Lewinski. Many other comedians have done this.
