Caffeine doesn't do much for me, in fact it often seems to make me sleepy

The butterfly keyboard models are definitely not included in that statement, but all other models yes they'll live forever. BUT i also have a bunch of old laptops from other companies that live forever running linux

I asked ai what the sharks name is and this is what it replied:

The shark in Jaws was never officially named in the movie, but behind the scenes, it was affectionately called Bruce. Steven Spielberg named the mechanical shark after his lawyer, Bruce Ramer. The name stuck, and Jaws fans still refer to the great white terror as Bruce today.

Did you know that Pixar paid homage to this by naming the friendly-but-menacing shark in Finding Nemo "Bruce" as well?

I'd say it's 5 minutes going to the beach, but 20 minutes coming back home

It really doesn't let you delete spaces it can go to? That seems like such a basic functionality it should have

I thought bars referred to opiates, not benzos? Is that incorrect?

EDIT

Nope, i checked urban dictionary, OP is correct and i am wrong. Bars refers to Xanax, which is an opiate

Yup. It really sucks. Being able to see things that are very quick is like a superpower, but as far as i can tell there's only downsides

Definitely! OLED is unusable for me because it has really bad PWM flickering. The majority of people can't see the screen flashing on and off like a strobe light, but many of us have eyes that do see the flashing, and it's awful.

I can't wait until a new display technology gets popular that doesn't use Pulse Width Modulation
