... but I don't see how setting your twitter bio to "trans rights" is supporting anyone.

Go donate to or share info about a charity like the trevor project or equality federation, rather than lazily virtue signalling.

I don't usually talk, sing, or hum alone, but I'm always either tapping my foot, tapping my desk, or clicking a pen.
It's not really deliberate, it just sort of happens.

Though to be fair I do deliberately buy retractable pens so I can click them...

You should set up a kool-aid stand

That sounds like a utopia!
Everything will be perfect and clean.
No need for jobs.
Zuck Bucks can be earned by watching ads.
And if you swear, we'll remove your mouth.

Yeah the hardware is pretty solid. It's the software that's the problem.

Kind of, but some distros are still much more stable than others.

It'd be like only ever trying windows ME or vista, rather than 2000 or 7.

You're still getting 'the windows experience', but you happen to be using one of the least stable options available. Much like choosing pop vs debian.

CD - About 8 years ago for plop boot manager, which I last used a few months ago.
DVD - 3 Years ago for a PS2 game, but now I use mx4sio.
Blu-ray - A few months ago to jailbreak a ps5.

Well he'd have to be at least 50

Your <5 year old phone is very capable and could definitely handle it.
They just want you to think it's more advanced and more difficult to render, rather than a deliberate performance degradation to make you want to upgrade.

The iphone 3gs could render infinity blade. Don't let apple fool you into believing a fragment shader is too heavy for a device that came out a decade later.

You're absolutely right!
Emoji bullet lists aren't just cool — They're changing the communication paradigm.

That's the point.
Then they'll add more slop cores to their next generation of cards, and use that as their demo for how great their latest cards are.

Their whole consumer business strategy since rtx has been to push the use of new rendering techniques that existing hardware is less capable of, while releasing new cards with dedicated cores designed specifically for their new techniques.
If they didn't have rtx or dlss, people would still be using their 980 ti's.
