Web 3.0 is, more or less, what timeshares were to our predecessors. Here’s a thing you can theoretically use, but in practice, it’s useless and just cons you out of a ton of cash. And the theoretical thing will never actually exist.
Short answer: No.
Long answer: Your laptop desires are common, but unprofitable. Even if manufacturers charged twice as much for them, they’d lose out in the long run. Because you wouldn’t need to buy a new one every three years.
It’s the same problem that mobile phones have. Year after year, the number one complaint in consumer surveys is: “I want longer battery life!” It’s been like that for 20 years now. You’re never gonna see it. The battery having a short daily life—as well as a short lifecycle (before you have to bin the device because the battery isn’t replaceable)—is an intentional design choice. It ensures you keep buying The Coolest New Thing every few years. That’s money in the bank, baby!
Ages ago, I won a bet that I would get carded at the pub if I shaved, even if I was wearing an expensive suit. I was 35 at the time.
Well, kudos to your infinite patience for stupid dicks JusT asKINg QUesTioNs. Mine ran out ages ago. So now I’m just mean about it.
The answer to the question is, “None,” because it’s a stupid question.
It’s like if somebody said they hate cars, and we can do without them. Then some stupid asshole said, “I see. Should we return to the horse and buggy? Perhaps the rickshaw? Chariots, perhaps? Maybe a world where kings are carried on a throne upon the shoulders of slaves? Or maybe just piggyback rides? Kindly ignore the existence of trains and bicycles. Thanks!”
I reject the premise of the question, because the question isn’t asked in good faith, and is fucking stupid.
Wow. I didn’t know that. I just, uh, you’re telling me now for the first time. I’m actually sad to hear that. I am sad to hear that. Thank you very much.
Are you referring to some pre-capitalism economic systems?
Yes. The person with the hammer and sickle handle, who moderates Leftypedia, thinks we should retvrn to a caste system. You nailed it. Your question is definitely in good faith.
Honestly, I love driving so, so much, and I cannot fathom a road trip where we don’t make a pit-stop at least every four hours. In fact, you kind of had to do that back in the 80’s, because fuel economy was total shit back then. My little Mazda fuel sipper had a max range of a bit over 400 miles, and if we had to use my parents’ van, it was closer to 250-300.
Also I’m old and I need to pee regularly.
Who the fresh fuck needs an EV that goes for a billion miles?
but 90% of it is it just me pretending to work by watching YouTube videos so my screen doesn’t go dark and I can make sure I’m not showing as Away in Teams.
Get a hardware mouse jiggler! I bought one for my partner as a gag gift during the start of the Pandemic, but it’s seriously improved their mental health. Taking naps, reading books, and writing all became possible with next to zero risk. Just get Teams to ping your phone when you get a new message.
You can tell a real programmer made this because it’s unreadable.
All Catholics are Christians, but not all Christians are Catholics. They are a subset by definition.
It’s not a binge watch until you die from dehydration kind of franchise. It’s just good vibes short stories. You can pop almost any episode on the screen and bask in the benignness of FALGSC for 30 minutes.
That rules.

Ahh, hexb— MMPHMMMP MMMMPHHMP MMM!
I’m sorry, what? You need to take that boot out of your mouth if you want folks to understand you.
Exactly $148 would ensure my mortgage doesn’t default next Tuesday. This is assuming I drink a bit of cooking oil.
I’ll probably be fine. Whoever said crime doesn’t pay was a bozo.
God damn, that’s what happened to those guys? I knew they ran outta money, but I didn’t things were that grim.
Needs more human paladins.
If you want to give a gift that’s simultaneously very thoughtful AND a very shitty gift: buy him a pair of knee pads. Refuse to elaborate on why you bought them.
