My dude, I'm paying $6 over here in California. I would love to have $4 gas.

Don't forget that they are also doing this to desensitize and normalize this for children...

No, honestly, this is a great explanation. That's how I basically thought it works, but I'm very new to the ecosystem, and didn't want to make assumptions.

Okay, I understand that Linux Mint can be Ubuntu or Debian.. But as a Mint user, would these changes even take place on my end? I don't entirely understand how these versions are forked. I don't believe I use Ubuntu... But is mint just built on a new Ubuntu infrastructure?

Can someone smarter than me please help? Lol

Hey bud, thanks for the criticism.

I'm gonna go back to my IRL life now.

Me? An expert? A guy who commented on a Lemmy post??

I said fuck the rich and y'all attacked me for being a shill for big oil.

Get out of here with that bullshit.

Fuck y'all are so fucking pedantic.

Okay, maybe every fucking state has a charger. But some places have not expanded, especially to rural areas.

Jesus fucking Christ. Y'all can't read extrapolation.

Never comment on anything on the internet. Fucking assholes like y'all chase down every goddamn word.

My dude is that what I said?

I am very anti-big oil. I also acknowledge the fact that big oil has fucked us.

I think if we can break away from their stranglehold on the industry, we can expand our grid and make EV happen. We also have a very large country with nothing in the middle. There are states without any electric chargers installed. It's a very big hurdle.

I never said we should slow EV adoption. If anything, I think they need to give everybody an electric car for free and make solar panels standard everywhere. But that's not going to happen because of capitalism.

I mean.. The main reason is people don't have money for a new car. Also the electrical infrastructure in this country is not ready for everyone to go electric.

The gas and oil industries have paid TONS of money to keep people locked into gas vehicles.

Once again, the rich continue to fuck the rest of us.

I can also add, as a vegetarian myself, a vegan diet is nowhere near as cheap.

Unless you have the ability to grow all your own produce and protein, vegans are spending just as much if not more for those calories/proteins.

Hey guys! Okay so here's the deal, my current PC Tower is from a deal back when Dell was giving away a free Xbox 360 if you buy a computer. About 8 years ago, I upgraded the graphics card to a 1050 and dropped in an SSD, but this thing's very much on its last legs.

I'm thinking of trading it out for a gaming laptop, because some of what I do needs the portability, but for the most part I'd like to dock it at my desk.

I'd like to do some light gaming, and I'm considering getting a 3D printer, so some CAD work.

From what I've researched, I'd like 32 gigs ram, and I think 1 terrabyte SSD. I'm also planning on having an external drive stack to load games from to save space, and to keep mobile gaming to a minimum..

Y'all have any recommendations? I looked at MSI, but I've heard they have heat distribution issues. I like Acer and Asus, but I don't really know what's good.

Only other stipulations, I would love to have an HDMI out, and keep the whole build under $1,500.
