One session gets you two separate doses, so you trip for about an hour, and feel totally normal afterward. Great for depression too.

A Unix-based system has value far beyond graphic design. A Mac will get software support for many years. The hardware quality and battery life are second to none.
I bought my niece a new MacBook Air. Her exceptionally poor, rural, Bible belt upbringing hasn’t stopped her from excelling academically. She needs a new computer and her family was going to buy her a $200 chromebook. But she’s off to college in a year and I knew that wouldn’t cut it. Here’s hoping it gets her to graduation.
Vivaldi for years now. I’m genuinely surprised it doesn’t get more attention. Its tab management is god tier.
1·1 month agoplane.so is great. Just be aware that self-hosted is not the same as free. It’s still $6/user.

3·2 months agoMy problem is that the file I download is not in the right format, doesn’t have any metadata embedded, doesn’t have subs embedded, and doesn’t match my file naming convention. In fact the way media is packaged, I don’t know how anyone that cares about these things is able to seed.

Made in Taiwan … exactly. The company might be American, but the product isn’t. The company is easily replaced by another with enough startup capital, and China has plenty of that.
Honestly, is there any product or material from the US that can’t be obtained in another country? Am I wrong to think that the rest of the world will just shrug and get what they need elsewhere? I mean the appeal of the US to other countries is our insatiable appetite for consumption, which can be leveraged for favorable trade deals. If we stop buying foreign goods because they are so expensive, we’re just fucked.

This is kind of an underrated sentiment. I think a big reason there aren’t more protests and revolting is because we really can’t afford it. The financial impact on each individual can be significant. Employers don’t support time off for anything of a political nature, not even voting.
I don’t believe this situation isn’t intentional. It seems that countries who take two hour lunch breaks and don’t let their jobs dictate their entire lives are far more likely to protest en mass.
Is it a level playing field? In China workers rights are pretty non-existent and there’s no OSHA equivalent, at least not to the degree we have in the US. Then add in government subsidies, lower worker pay, reduced R&D costs because they pilfered the engineering from a US company, and you end up with a very lopsided market.
To be clear, I am in no way defending the US auto industry. They have little customer loyalty for a reason – low quality, overpriced, subscription dependent vehicles with terrible warranties, expensive service requirements, and invasive telemetry. They need more competition to force them to make more consumer-friendly decisions, but China is hardly a fair competitor.
