.....and just in case you couldn't figure it out: you're agreeing with me. But looking like a fool becaause you don't know it.

What part of my post was discussing laptop parts? Was something unclear about how this was reponding to and speaking of auto parts specifically? And that it was a reasonse to someone trying to use an auto parts analogy that obviously doesn't fit the subject of this article in any way? Did you bother to read it in full or just decide to start posting with your nerd rage?

10x is ludicrous, that's not how car parts work unless you want to play "well ackshually!" with outlyers. And the article is talking about individual parts that cost more than the device is worth.

Of all the car analogies and parts you could have chosen, you choose the dumb hunk of cast metal that can be machined by something made in the 1920s and have absolutely been one of the most reliable things to buy aftermarket. What's it like being such an apple fanboy and failing at analogies?

I think you need to be pretty careful about painting with this broad of a brush. In cluding a lot of your other comments about not participating in the economy. Amish communities vary GREATLY by their leadership. Some of the Amish I deal with run a buinding supply store. They have computers, cell phones, CNC stamping machines, propane and diesel fork lifts, etc. All the kids working there have fire pages hanging off their belts from the local volunteer fire department. Some of them even drive.

All of that end when the get home, except the fire pages. Those are the only things that come in, after being charged at work. Cell phones stay in a box at the edge of the property by the mailbox.

So as you can see, some of these communities have found way to integrate that still carries on the traditions and customs of their home life. Also, they are far from broke and socialize paying for outside medical care when necessary.

They already know the audio on the flight deck is being recorded the entire time they're in there.

I was in a repair shop and was warranty authorized on those things. They were assembled upside down, so any time you needed to replace or repair the keyboard mechanism you'd flip it over, take off the bottom, and then proceed to completely diassemble the unit until you arrived at the keyboard. They were surprisingly robust considering the mechanism. I was mostly repairing or replacing that keyboard for the same reason I'd have to replace other laptop keyboards: spills and mechanical damage.

I dunno, just a thought: trying to solve AI slop with "Web3" reputation nonsense it unworkable on its face. The solution to this isn't technological. It's financial.

Wow, it's so brave to have an edgy opinion like "I don't like things that are or were popular."

Stop pasting LLM slop.

Well you certainly read whatever it is you wanted into what I posted. Do you feel real smart now?

The NTSB is often brought in to any investigation involving a US made plane.

There are not ">50% MAGA supporters in America". If you go by 2024 voting, only 63% of eligible voters voted and only 49% of those voted for the demented narcissist manchild.

Yes, which is even more baffling because most people associate Cinemax with a product inferior to HBO.

Oh, are they going to "do no evil"?
