@gjmwoods you are in there my friend.
#TIL that HDD prices also increased (because of "AI") like the SSD/memory prices before. I was slowly building my home NAS, thinking that if I use HDD, not SSD, then I should race only with the possibility of Internet shutdown in my country and hope that I'll build the machine before the Internet will become unusable or completely turned off, and I will be able to preserve at least something from human knowledge and creativity. But … looks like for now I should race not only with censorship, but also with fucking "AI" corporations
The worst timeline ever, I never saw how the price of something was decreased in my life. When I moved to my city at 2008, the bus fare was near 18 roubles. For now it is 88 roubles — the 389% rise. Fuck this shit.
I think, one time the novel "Walkaway" from Cory Doctorow will become not a novel but a real-life. Because there are no mass-adopted solution for now — you could choose only in between "you own nothing and be happy" and "you own nothing and welcome to GULAG" . So the good enough solution — not to participate in that circus at all and walk away.
Reclamação do dia / Daily Grumble 😹 [SENSITIVE CONTENT]
🔇 Em trabalho remoto, de casa, ainda tenho usado um par de caixas de som simplezinhas na escrivaninha, onde também ligo o laptop a outros periféricos que ficam no local: microfone, teclado, monitor. Por algum problema de Osmar (contato), com menos de um mês de uso, a caixa esquerda já não funcionava mais. Compradas numa lojinha de outra cidade, fica difícil trocar. 🌎️ A Terra chora com o que parece ter sido um desperdício tosco de materiais. 🤷♂️🙉 Working from home, I've still been using a basic pair of #desktop #speakers, where I also plug in the laptop to other peripherals that stay there: mic, keyboard, monitor. Probably due to some sort of contact issue, after less than a month, the left speaker's already kaput. Got them from a small shop in another town, so returning them is a hassle. 🌐 The Earth's probably shedding a tear over this seemingly crude waste of materials.
