  • I was on 4chan back in '06-'10 or so. Back when it was more people circle jerking about being right wing or blaming things on jews for the bit, to be edge lords. But that's the thing about doing that - when you do it soon becomes impossible to distinguish the people doing it for laughs and the people who genuinely believe it. And eventually the people doing it for laughs leave, and all that's left is people who believe it.

    I was just there for memes, porn, and trolling. Calling a specific GameStop and repeatedly asking for battletoads in a thousand ways will always be funny to me. But eventually the shift becomes too great.

    4chan has always been an ocean of piss, but it wasn't always this concentrated.

  • When it first happened the doctor asked my pain level and gave me a look when I said "10." So I explained that I was doing everything I could to not be actively groaning/sobbing/screaming out loud because society reacts poorly to huge dudes behaving like that. That I'd spent most of the drive over screaming in my car. That I'd puked a few times the night before from pain.

    I finally summed it up as, "if you tell me now that I'll still feel like this in two weeks, I will go home and kill myself. Because that's my estimate of how long I can endure this."

    Ended up getting into a physical therapist and eventually got cortisone shots. Fixed most of it, thank god

  • Weed is illegal and minorities get arrested for it more because Nixon wanted to create more felons to stop people from voting for Democrats. Because in his view mostly only hippies and minorities smoked weed or used other hallucinogens, and those people overwhelmingly vote for Democrats.

    The slavery is a bonus, but that was the real reason.

  • There was a jump between old early gen SATA SSDs and modern NVMe in my opinion, but it's really only noticable if you're running something like a game with a huge amount of data to load, and you're actively comparing the two.

    My old PC had several different hard drives of differing types and I'd periodically be too lazy to move a game from one drive to another so I'd play it off different drives over a period of time, and was able to compare the loading times.

    So I'd say they're faster, but it's nowhere near the leap that HDD to SSD was.
