Yup, my only laptop is a 10+ year old ThinkPad. Does everything I need it to do perfectly

Same here. Biden has given me hope they actually will.

Instead of the usual Dem capitulation to shitty R demands, he's told them to get stuffed.

This seems unprecedented in modern history.

We have an inequality problem masking as a gun problem. We have a mental health crisis masking as gun problem.

Hard agree. People would not be killing themselves in droves if these issues weren't present.

We have a shitload of guns in this country. Nothing is going to change that.

While I think we do need more strict gun ownership laws, they're not going to change the amount already in people's hands. Nor will they make people less miserable.

What we need are tangible improvements in people's lives. Improved wages. Lower housing costs. Affordable healthcare. Quality, free treatment for addiction.

These are the things that will keep people from killing themselves.

I am in a similar situation with my guns. I have two antique long guns. They're locked up, in the crawl space, and I don't keep any ammo in my house.

I have depression and I don't trust myself not to use my guns to kill myself. For me, the inconvenience of accessing them and obtaining ammo feels like a safe compromise.

I agree that this is an enormous problem with no easy solutions.

Celebrate the death of an evil man. Go for it.

This is where I'm at too. I feel no guilt celebrating the death of an evil person.

A truly unpopular opinion!

celebrating someone dying in the way that’s happening now shows disrespect to human life and an utter lack of humanity.

I disagree with this when applied to Kissenger. His actions directly contributed to millions of people unnecessarily dying. This is not an exaggeration.

He committed treason against his country by purposely sabotaging Vietnam peace talks. He did this to ingratiate himself to Nixon, not for any sort of higher reason.

His evil deeds are very much still fucking things up in the present day.

Kissenger was one of the worst monsters of the modern era.

To top it all off, he never received justice for any of his misdeeds. He was widely venerated and powerful until his death.

For real, internal combustion engines are made way better than they used to be. Both in terms of reliability and power output.

You can get a small, ICE only (non-hybrid) car that gets 40+ MPG. You can buy a new car with a warranty that makes over 800 horsepower.

The IC engine is at its peak. Electric is the future, but the current crop of ICE are incredible machines.

I have depression and ADHD. I work 3x 9 hour days a week and still struggle with it. I don't think I could handle any more.

Nice banana, but I hope you never have to use it

I was thinking the same thing.

Good for you for working on your depression!

The kits that use a reamer, rubber cement, and lil gloopy rubber cords are far preferable to a “fix a flat” canned solution, both in effectiveness and in ease of replacement. A pair of pliers and a good utility knife would go along with this stuff well.

Another mechanic here, 100% agree. These things work really well.

He's aged 30 years since then

Tbh, same

Reject modernity, embrace tradition

Now I do too

Your troubleshooting skills are above average, tbh.

You've identified that there's an issue. You tried something simple to remedy. You even tried it again to make sure.

You didn't make a bunch of crazy assumptions about what the problem was. You didn't do a bunch of weird shit all at once to try to fix it. You didn't do something to make the problem worse.

You're doing great!

Same here

Right??

Mittens sucks out loud, but I have to give it to him: he's had some ethical stances on things.

One of my favorites when I'm sick!

Also great to spread some jam on there too
