I have family in Mexico who attempt to de-empasize gendered language in Spanish, but yeah there’s a lot of pushback from more conservative people, and unfortunately those conservative voices tend to be the loudest.

This probably is the case, but this analysis looked at liver transplants specifically

I mean, why not? We already exist on stolen land, and our border policy with Mexico is fueled by colonialism.

Note so I'm not misunderstoodJust to be clear, I’m being satirical and don’t really think we should extend our colonial arm even further, but it’s important to realize that we already pretty much do this.

This, and there’s a good chance OP didn’t realize it was AI when they shared it.

I don’t think it’s good to make people feel bad either way

It’s not quite the same, but I get a similar vibe now when I check out DVDs at the library. And no late fees!

Maybe they came back down, but when I looked at parts a year or so ago, the prices were extremely high. Unless you’re one of the lucky few who lives anywhere near a Micro Center. There’s not even one in my state, so I rely on sites like NewEgg, Amazon, and Best Buy.

I built my first PC for ~$1k in 2017, and it was moderately good. Unless something has changed and I’ve not noticed, I don’t think I could even build that again for that price with the exact same parts.

Or maybe I’m clueless, and you can show me an alternative site that I’m unaware of.

It used to be that you could legit build a PC for fairly cheap, but those days are long gone. Yet another hobby that got gentrified.

Yeah, I know that. I’m a very patient gamer, but my comment is referring to the cost of hardware. That can be somewhat offset by the lower cost of games, but you’re not getting as much bang for your buck by building your own PC as you would have had in the past. Not even close!

Add to that the fact that game sales and discounts are nowhere near what they once were and that things like HumbleBundle have taken a nosedive, and it’s very much a rich person’s plaything, in comparison to what it was in the past. Even used gear is going for more than what one would expect.

I agree with your tips, though.

Want to join a Solarpunk Bookclub?

Hey Solarpunk people! We are a small community of readers, writers, and activists that is dedicated to exploring Solarpunk and adjacent literature. Every week, we discuss one chapter of a book that we choose together. So far, we have read four books, including most recently The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin. If you want to...

Do you have links to the books, or do we have to locate or buy them?

It’s got a strong neoliberal bias. In my experience, the users on .world are fairly diverse in opinions and philosophy, but the mods tend to be pro-status quo centrists – with exceptions, of course.

I recall a mod on their politics community who posted a mod-flaired comment informing us that “the United States is not a racist nation.”

Some of their policies seem questionable as well, such as blocking piracy communities or disallowing archived versions of paywalled articles. It feels like the sort of thing reddit would have done to appease advertisers.

I’ll admit I’m biased because I haven’t had the greatest experience with some specific .world mods, one in particular who is fond of calling people “morons” for criticizing Biden. To be fair, I’ve seen another more rational mod remove that particular mod’s comments, but it seems to keep happening anyway.

I made the mistake of buying a Razer Kiyo Pro webcam. Never again will I buy anything from Razer. Every time it’s connected, it puts an installer on my hard drive unprompted and then tries to install its crapware. I’ve never seen a piece of hardware that puts an exe on your hard drive without user consent.

Every so often, you should search for furry inflation porn, just to make their job more interesting

Don’t feel bad. The first time I encountered this site, I thought it was legit too. It wasn’t until I had read several articles that I realized it’s a right-wing propaganda site.
