The MacBook Neo starts at $599 and is an excellent laptop at that price point. The build quality is great and (most importantly to me) it's not Windows. Apple can't make them fast enough. YouTube and other tech sites are full of positive reviews and the general consensus is that Apple has produced a product that's unmatched in the Windows laptop space.
So, contrary to what this boomer says, you can get an Apple laptop at a reasonable price. People don't buy the Apple brand. They buy the quality, the ad-free, far less invasive OS. They buy the convenience of the ecosystem. They buy the pleasure of an attractive, well-functioning device they find a pleasure to use.
This boomer mindset that you should get the cheapest, just barely viable thing you can is idiocy. I put this in the same category as, just eat ramen / PB&J / hotdogs / oatmeal / the bugs for every meal to cope with being financially dry ass raped by government and corporations. Just make yourself miserable enough and maybe everything will work out. For things you do or use frequently, or things you come to depend on, or just don't want to hate interacting with, get something you like, get something that perhaps brings some small amount of pleasure to your day and give some stupid fuck boomer like Kevin O'Leary an aneurysm.
I'm so sick of this, and I'm so sick of them.

And in the cities where canals were built, the railroad turned them into muddy ditches filled with garbage and horse carcasses for the next several decades until people couldn't stand it anymore and formed fundraising groups to fill them in and pave them over since governments were too inept to get the job done.

It's also revealing that he doesn't anticipate any negative repercussions from stating such things publicly. What are you plebs gonna do about it? Vote? For the pajeet? Or the car guy who has zero chance? Or the post-menopausal libshit? Lulz.

"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and true religion. Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." ~ John Adams (Bostonian)

About as good as I could realistically expect. I've moved a bunch to the cloud now, but my former web hosting operation did well and I'm thinking of starting it again. Long story.

I fell in love with Unix operating systems 30+ years ago and my setups for a long time have been Linux on the server and Mac on the desktop.

macOS is a unix variant, and if you know Linux you'll pick it up pretty quickly. 99.999% of all the same command line stuff works.

I am but a simple retard and a steak simply cooked in a cast iron skillet without any other fuss is probably the most delicious thing I’ve eaten.

In what world are steak and potatoes bland?

It's truly baffling how this thing ever made it to production.

It’s depressing how much of life is about the messenger rather than the message.

Yeah, inside the house is fine, and that's what makes it so noticeable when I open the patio door.

It's genuinely hard to breathe.

It's 11:00 at night and the humidity outside is still suffocating. And I will take this over the best winter day every day of my life.

This just appeared on my phone while I was writing a reply. What the hell is going on?

I've lived that life for 30 years and boy do I have stories, but my conscience is clear. I do resent the majority of employers and customers treating me like human garbage tho.

It seems like doctors don’t have any clear causes or treatments for most digestive problems.

I got scoped all the way through, from both ends, and I was told my insides looked great and I should eat more fiber. Considering the frequency and severity of my problems, that’s not the answer.

Not enough. Right now it feels like there’s a brick sitting at the bottom of my stomach and it’s painful to move or touch. If it’s not better in the morning I’ll make an appointment at the clinic.
