Loose is also plenty useful. However neither of those are the word “loosing”.

Loosing is almost never the word anyone is looking for.

2000 feels like a very, very long time ago.

iPhone 3GS. Lovely little thing. Mine was white.

I was fortunate to find something that I have enough skills for but I absolutely agree on the polymath thing. One would think that it’d be a useful skillset to have but I don’t think most businesses can grasp the concept. As a result my employer doesn’t receive anywhere near the benefits they could from me.

Yeah, I always found it weird when people would act like they have it so cushy. On a material comfort level, sure, but on basically every other level it sounds awful. You couldn’t pay me to put myself or my children through that.

Footballers who get paid a packet and can then vanish into obscurity if they so choose? That sounds like the good life.

Hard pass on the gilded cage thing. I’m no monarchist, so now that the single nationalised granny initiative is over I’m wondering whether we’ll keep them. Inertia will probably keep it going for a while yet. Transitioning away from them seems like it’d probably somehow be even more expensive and troublesome than living with them. A bit like trying to totally rid a large building of mice.

Whenever I hear “King Charles” I think “Who? That can’t be right”.

Don’t anthropomorphise your onions - they don’t like it.

I was a young teen when it happened and it just seemed ridiculous that anyone would be naïve enough to fall for the extremely obvious lies.

It wasn’t okay the first time around either. Anyone credulous enough to believe that obvious bullshit shouldn’t have been allowed to form legal contracts for their own safety.

Without proper consequences their behaviour will continue.

It turns out that maybe having a gentlemen’s agreement for how things should work was a bad idea.

Mmmmm compiz. Wobbly windows, spinny cube virtual desktops, take me home!

I assume it was made to upsell people to better CPUs. Celerons have always been awful.

That said, if Win7 came preinstalled then we’re talking about different eras of Celeron, at least, I cannot imagine it would be as mediocre as a low-mid AMD CPU from 2004!

I always think of an ex of mine defending criticism of her craptop. “It was good for its time!” No, no it wasn’t. It was built around a Celeron. It was built to be trash. It was ewaste with extra steps.

Whilst the Celeron was indeed utter cack, 2 GB has me making four Yorkshiremen-style “2GB? Luxury!” style comments.

I used to run Ubuntu on my Acer Aspire 1362 WMLi back in 2005. I had 512 MB of RAM and a 2800+ Sempron processor.

That said, looking at this:

My old Sempron was a better CPU than that piece of junk Celeron you’ve got there. Giving it 2GB of RAM is hilarious!

Mick-rowave. Based on how Jen pronounces it in Bob’s Burgers

Yeah, I have no issue with newer generations mangling language - but doing it because capitalism? Gross. Don’t stand for that shit.

Uncensored.

Just do a search for a bit of the text before posting this stuff. It’s super easy to find the uncensored version.

POST THAT. Let’s kill off this censored trash.
