It is in an apartment so its probably a cheap piece of junk (frigidaire or hotpoint, one of those brands i think) but it just cant maintain a high temperature; cant stir fry, cant maintain a rolling boil for consistent pasta, etc
Stoves with Sensi-temp burners; they've got a weird little spring loaded disc in the center of the burner. Cant even boil fucking water consistently because it shuts itself off over a certain temperature and doesn't come back on for far too long.
Ngl, id be down for it. I'm just so done with reading news headlines, wondering if i need to be afraid of my own government; and if so, where it lands on the scale of "careful what you say out loud" to "flee for my goddamn life".
Never been reliant on wifi tbh, I've generally been an Ethernet purist and have never owned a personal laptop (just desktops). Even for work laptops id use either onboard ethernet or a dongle
Does wifi chipset matter on a laptop? Its just an m.2 Key E chip, should be easily replaceable. Cant imagine manufacturers would solder that on, its not like RAM
Ray Bradbury also has a good array of short stories, at least one or two of which are sort of precursors to Fahrenheit 451
Edit: its been too long since i read Fahrenheit 451... just started (and finished) re-reading it for the second time in my life, in the last couple hours. i still think it might be one of the more likely dystopias that await us.
It feels appropriate, somehow, that my first read through was a pirated PDF copy of it from some random corner of the internet.
I'm left feeling oddly... hopeful. Like I've been reminded of a part of being human that is good.
100% correct.
