Trihilis

There were some okay boards like /a/ and /vg/. The rest was pure trash. I used to play warframe and world of tanks and /vg/ had a pretty decent thread (but that was like 10? Years ago) where you could find other players and discuss builds.

/a/ was okay but as soon as reddit (which i stopped using too) had a decent anime community i left from that too since it was mostly shitposting.

Unironically /g/ sometimes had some good threads for recommending used laptops.

The past 5? years I barely visited it since every single board became a breeding ground for hate speech, trolling and shitposting. I checked time to time if things became better but nope. I decided it was better to just check reddit (and now lemmy) communities that highlighted the funny posts.

There isn't really a place where you can post anonymously like 4chan though. Although they didn't allow VPNs since a few years so it's not totally anonymous anyway....

Shart of the deal

Yeah... I think most people mistake hating ai from hating the way it is implemented.

There are plenty of really good reasons to hate ai for the way it is being implemented (plagiarism for one). Or shitty companies replacing good employees that do a better job than an ai just for cost saving (short term profit, shareholders above anything).

I believe ai can be usefull especially for doing menial repetitive tasks. And it should be possible to implement ai in an ethical way so it can benefit anyone and not just leech.

But currently big tech is implementing it in a shitty way and they will find a way to enshittify ai (just like they did with social media).

Everyone is being lured in with "free" queries and when everyone is "addicted" and all of the competition has either gone bankrupt or bought they'll start charging money and make the service worse.

Yeah I've done some digging after your comment and also found the Louis rossman video.

They are indeed quite aggressive. What would you suggest as a good alternative? Lineage?

I try to use only foss apps as well (mostly F Droid).

What controversy? I haven't heard about this? Can you share a link? I was planning on getting a pixel bur if some weird shit happens then I might go for a fairphone instead (and put lineage or eos on it).

Since it's a pixel might as well go for GrapheneOS and upgrade your privacy too.

I have no idea what I'm looking at. Wth is a ravioli bowl? A bowl made specifically for ravioli?

It boggles my mind that half the US population voted for people who: -wants to make everyone who is not already super rich poor -destroy the planet with pollution -take away everyone's freedom and rights -destroy the economy

Oh well, enjoy your dystopia i guess?

From what I read it has a 256GB eMMC storage and SD card reader that supports 2TB SD cards.

The RAM.. yeah probably excessive. I wouldn't mind it but for most people it's overkill.

You sure about that? We were (EU) still doing business with Russia like a couple of years ago when it was clear they were corrupt and evil since forever.

Most politicians here have no spine and will gladly bend over as soon as they have the chance.
