Not really.

Most people on these forums can’t think for themselves and are just parroting others to fit in.

They don’t want to admit they’ve been conditioned to waste their money on things they could be getting for free.

Here’s a good, free VPN https://riseup.net/en/vpn

Protonmail is already free, not sure why you would subscribe to it.

Me too.

4G speeds are actually pretty good.

and I find it worth subscribing.

Tool mentality.

You can use Pandora for internet radio and youtube when you want to look up specific songs.

Spotify never had a use, but the useful idiots kept shilling it to each other so that’s why it’s popular.

The subscriptions where you pretty much don’t have a choice because there’s no replacement.

If you’re subscribing to any digital media, then odds are it’s not worth it and you’re just being a useful idiot. (sorry not sorry)

Utilities? Yeah, that’s worth it.

I also pay a subscription to get my groceries delivered without an additional cost for each order. It’s definitely worth it.

No, I think it would be great if it federated. More people would come into contact with the idea of federation. I doubt most people using truth social are aware it’s Mastodon. I certainly didn’t know.

Wrong on both fronts.

I couldn’t disagree more.

You’re referring to the analysts, executives, and marketers instead of most nerds.

I bought my own house and the price of owning a house is nothing compared to the price of renting.

Anyone who tries to argue otherwise is a moron who genuinely does not know what they’re talking about.

a large number of people who want the money but aren’t qualified do what we’re looking for.

Sounds like these businesses should be training their employees instead of expecting the employees to train themselves.

College is a great scam because it puts the onus of training onto the worker, not the business. And like good useful idiots, the average person feels pride in being taken advantage of in this way.

I genuinely believe my republican neighbors and I can unite on forming a lynch mob for the ruling class.

This is fucking bullshit and we only have too little because they have too much.

We need to work together to change this culture.

It shouldn’t have had all those users to begin with.

I’ll be real with you: philosophy seems like a bougie thing to major in.

It’s something you major in when you have a cushion that allows it.

Most people don’t have that cushion, so they get mad when they see someone who does use it.

That’s why just about every technology forum ends up being a consumer board.

Actually, yes. Lifting the weight of a Toyota Camry 2 stories seems reasonable for a day’s worth of energy storage for a house.

I’m not sure how expensive the lift and generator will be, but the weight itself can be anything that’s sufficiently heavy.

You say chemical energy is way easier to store, but is it really easier and cheaper to store the energy needed for a home in a chemical battery?
