  • If you built your rig yourself then there's 0 reason you'd need a specific company's wifi card. Even if you buy a prebuilt then there shouldn't be, even

  • explaining they have problems too

    They claimed to have problems and need to order their wifi part form a specific manufacturer yet claimed to have built their machine themselves

    They're lying, or so completely clueless about what they're talking about that they come across as such. That's why they're getting downvoted. This is usually why, actually

  • My kindle could already handle everything the Kobo I was looking at could do, but was far cheaper than the Kobo due to a sale (and Amazon thinking I'm dumb enough to be locked into their system)

    Literally using Calibre is enough to turn your Kindle into a piracy machine, so if you can get one cheap it's long been my recommendation for people

  • Like I said, you don't know what you're talking about: Xanax isn't an SSRI, it's a Benzodiazepine, literally a depressant

    You prescribe Xanax for anxiety because it relaxes you, you prescribe SSRIs for depression to help with serotonin processing, they are not even the same class of drug

  • I have experienced lazy doctors who dismiss everything as stress

    You think people are getting depression diagnosis and SSRIs on that?

    Just admit you're completely uninformed and stay out of discussions in which you are so in future, dude

  • Your GP is supposed to be able to write a script for Adderall, but mine refused until I went through their hospitals mental health service to "confirm" the diagnosis I got from a famous medical facility (UCSF), which was a 3 month minimum wait to talk to the person who could then write the recommendation to see the person who can diagnose me and give me a 1 week script (another 2 month wait after the first appointment, so 5 total now), then my GP could write me my full-month amount

    Oh, I'd been taking them on my old diagnosis for a fucking year and a half by that point, so it's not like I was some recent diagnosis who was trying to doctor shop, I had a record of this shit

    Oh, and trying to regularly pick my meds up from 2 different locations of the same chain pharmacy caused issues, even though it was because I travelled for work and could easily produce documents and statements from my company CEO to back me up

    every pharmacy within 75 miles of my house responded to me trying to figure out of they could take me on as a new patient with active hostility, 4 hung up on me without an answer, and one said "no, fuck off you junkie"

    I... I can go on, sadly, those are just my personal ones

  • No reason that they can't just go 'oh we didn't sell those books, we should clean up all that unauthorized content' at some point in the future.

    On our personal devices? That's illegal where I am and I doubt they even have the capability to do that currently, anyway

    Or custom non-connected firmware

    Just don't connect to the Internet and use Calibre to manage your library, there's no need for custom firmware

  • Kobo allows epub

    Kindle doesn't? Mines 2 years old but my co worker got one for Xmas and theirs loads the epub I sent them no problem at all

    Honestly the Kobo is better as a physical device imo but the Kindle is perfectly simple to commit crimes on if you have Calibre

  • it keeps non tech savvy people out,

    Picking a server isn't a tech savvy person thing to do and it's a good idea to stop pretending like it is. My wife, who needs me to move her steam games to other drives for her, managed to do it without asking me a thing. Tech skill has nothing to do with it

  • I was defending the average right of center voter

    Who voted for the fascists, making them fascists themselves

  • We kinda do, the kid basically said what sounds like parroting daddy with "they'll never know evil toddler laugh' when he overheard discussion of voting machines or some shit

  • love it when kids tell me what my life was like

    Didn't happen, I said what it was like now by comparison

    No, not everyone who worked 40 hours a week could afford a house.

    And no body ever claimed that

    You can wrap yourself in self pity or you can be resourceful, your choice

    Lol, you have no idea what you're talking about

  • Report an issue through the base report feature

    Open maps > your profile picture > last option on the list

    You can directly reference and include a screenshot of the map

  • Every generation has it's challenges

    And the younger ones have an objective, mathematically proven worse version of the challenges than the earlier ones did

    Nobody claimed it was ever perfect, only that it's worse now, which it is

  • They're doing that in the US as well, but only if you zoom in, weird

  • Unironically why I refer to myself as Californian to known foreigners, rather than American. Have had 3 different people tell me that helped them at least be ready to see me as one of the less idiotic ones to begin with, so it worked as intended

    Fucking sad, really
