i dunno about pricing in the us, but try get at least a BX50 tier motherboard. B450 works and might be cheaper, but make sure the bios is compatible with your chip.

i tend to highly favor taiwanese manufacturers like asus and msi. i don’t think anything else is worth spending your hard earned money on.

talk about bad taste

“the EU is a pioneer of privacy!” yeah sure.

we can only guarantee privacy if we control the software and hardware involved.

told me to never let the computer update

probably beause sometimes, they sneak in stuff we may not want with updates. totally understand where hes coming from.

graphene and lineage

every few months, every few days, or every other day. depends on device.

updating every few months or so is good enough for most people. alternative, open source software wont really come with garbage anyway, so no big deal.

always has been

ill use this opportunity to say windows is shit.

after getting used to linux, its hard to go back. we dont need microsoft.

yes but this takes time. its great to have alternatives in the meantime.

not trust. coercion.

and i’m so glad it seems to be ending.

quality control on these updates are honestly on a downhill. especially on windows and some android manufacturers (looking at you, samsung).

they are still necessary to keep your computing safe though, but you don’t need to install them immediatly. i usually wait a bit until they had time to retract them if they break something big.

what oppressors want me to worry about privacy? what planet are they in?

those people are literally using it to sell us fascism…

antivirus software is, most of the time, spyware.

it shouldnt be needed on android anyway, if you keep it updated and don’t sideload stuff.

no clue what could be causing it, truly a mystery.

maybe we can setup a botnet to poison advertiser data.

click all the ads, all over the planet!

in other news: big tech oligarchy takes aim at EU privacy laws.

the appeal of lofi strip clubs

to be fair i don’t understand the appeal of regular strip clubs either. why the everliving fuck would anyone pay to get blue balls?

new line for the administration to cross

they have been disappearing people for years at this point.

“us fascism is china’s fault!”

id be down for a halfway device between One and Two, if they can keep the pricing closer to the One.

i really like that they are giving us more lan ports, but the hefty price tag really dissapoints me.

really puts it into unaffordable territory for my global south ass. too bad, i wanted to upgrade my wifi with an officially supported device, but the One doesnt have as many ports as i need.

for that price id rather get something that can run full linux.

my problem with that is thats not really up to me, if i have to be up for work or down for work in a given time. and id love to leave work and have a bit of sunlight left.
