Lmao fr

I feel like it does imply that though. “tablet-fed” really does sound more severe than just using it having one around.

“as much as popular”

What language did this come from?

I can see the alphas railing against the term “tablet-fed”. They are NOT gonna like that.

That’s gonna be what us cranky old millennials call them later while we would be yelling at them to get off our lawn. But we won’t yell that, because none of us will own any yards.

Came here to say this. Well I would’ve said Trump, but same idea.

I don’t know if this is specifically possible. I’m not quite rookie-level new (been using it about a year now) but I have something I would love to have convenience-wise.

It’s a desktop machine with regular speakers, and I have a wireless headset that connects to its own dongle (not Bluetooth). It’s there a way to switch to the headset automatically when I power it on, and revert to speakers when I turn it off?

I feel like it’s possible hardware-wise, but I’m not tryna learn how to code to make it happen, and I don’t know how to find a software solution. I don’t even know what to call what I’m looking for.

I don’t think you understand what seeing a 4k image or video means. You can’t see a 4k image or video without a 4k screen. Maybe a 15 year old camera can capture it, but you can’t see it, even with today’s phone screens.

The only TV I’ve ever owned was like 19". The only real-size TVs I’ve ever watched are my parents’ and the one my roommate had in the living room.

And just because they’ve been available since 2019 (according to you- I honestly can’t remember when they started showing up lol) doesn’t mean they were common or cheap at the time. And both of those units (the ones I’ve spent any time with) were bought around 2016 anyway. Not sure what world you live in where everybody buys a new TV every 3 or 4 years, but it’s not a universal thing, or even the norm. Where having an SDTV might justify a midnight trip to go get a real TV, the need for 4k is less than 0.

So no, I am quite sure I’ve never seen a 4k image or video. Because I’ve never owned it has access to a 4k screen. That in and of itself is enough to verify that much, without having to worry about how modern it is, it what it was shot with, or recorded on, or how it was downloaded, or where/how it was streamed or any of that confusion.

No 4k screen means I’ve never seen anything that could only be on one.

I still don’t think that I’ve ever seen a 4k image or video. plenty of morons out there sliding the quality up to 4k and going “Look at how good it looks!” whole I know full well their screen is at 1080 and I internally cringe.

But yeah, late 2024 and I’ve still never even seen a 4k screen to my knowledge.

At least not in person and not rebroadcast to a 1080 TV. So it doesn’t count.

I miss before the feed existed. People would just update their page and Wall and you’d have to look around to see what people has changed (you could just see they made an update".

The Wall itself was just an insecure text box, so you could say something and identify yourself as whoever you wanted (there was no linking here) and they had no way to know who actually typed it.

I hated it as soon as the feed came out, really hated when it became open more widely (I was a college kid mad the little kids were coming to mess up the playground)

I kinda stopped using it much as soon as high schools could join. I would log in every couple months and remember I still don’t care about any of these people. Then I finally made the move last year to download my data and delete the account. Haven’t looked back.

If my computer starts testing me as… ANYTHING then I’m out.

I totally get it. I wish some of it was modular. My screen is too big 90% of the time. I love it for a clear view of the backup camera. It’s nice for a clear view of the map if I’m out of town. Much better than trying to fumble with that on as phone like I did before.

But I don’t have to do that often. It’s not really in the way or anything but sometimes I just don’t wanna see pixels. I can adjust it, but it’s too much of a pain to mess with.

I totally get the comparison now. That movie was horrifying as hell though.

Even that fat fuck knows that we will go out of our way to do anything he actually hates, right?

And we’re past time to have a coalition of people formed that just takes oppressive leaders out and streams their execution.

For him I suggest being dragged over cobblestone while being forced to listen to AI’d voice clips of his dad talking about how disappointed he is in him. I feel like there was a weird daddy issue there and if so, I want that to bother him on his way out.

All the rules are made up, and the points don’t matter.

Well then how the hell did they get in my room?

Lol alright. I have a standing appointment with my brother every weekend to watch a movie and will work on a TV show for a few episodes each weekend.

None of that description sounds anything like the premise that the meme movie would be. But it does sound interesting enough for me to check it out this weekend.

And you very well may. But the pandemic itself made sense temporarily for delivery. But a lot of people really got into the lazy part of it.

We all need a little splurge like that now and then. But people doing it every week, or 2-3 times a week is just absolute gobsmack crazy to me.

Even pizza I typically pick up. I used to live just 5 minutes from one and still felt so lazy getting it brought to me I’d give em $5 tip anyway to help them and punish myself for the laziness. It was usually just 1 pie with the easiest (actually 5 minutes too- unless traffic was light at the time) drive and walkway situation they could ask for. The drivers must have fought for my tickets lol. Not a humongous tip, but for 5 minutes of work with the easiest workload possible and no difficulty (unless you count a 3-step to get on the porch, which I would often meet them at or tell em to leave it on there to prevent even that)

All of those help the pronunciation of the “word”. I’ve no clue what OWCA is, but for the others they didn’t change the very first letter that’s for kinda the most important in the phrase. It’s an image file, and they make it impossible to directly and verbally connect to the meaning of GRAPHICAL.

I’m not trying to fire on a hill for a pronunciation of an acronym just for my preference of g instead of j. But the absolute most important word in that phrase is graphical, and therefore the g noise absolutely has to be included and that is that for that argument. You don’t kill off the main character for some worse than Scrappy Doo schmuck.

And in what world are gif and jif better or worse sounding than each other for this to even have a point? It’s like whoever decided on making this fake j solely intended and only cared about making the meaning of it harder to figure out and less representative of its meaning.

Since this reply is about gif I’m mostly done, but as a quick point, for the other examples-

For SCUBA, I’m pretty sure it’s just pronounced wrong because fixing that would mess up the letters if they made it work by English rules (there would need to be 2 "B"s). So the argument comes down to making it an acronym or making a new word inspired by the acronym.

NASA is actually the same thing, with a pretty similar change that would be needed. (but 2 "S"s this time)

If both of these could just add a word their problems would be fixed and everyone would be happy.

CAPTCHA I’m only vaguely aware is an acronym and I’m not looking that up right now for sanity reasons (all these hills exploding in this thread giving me PTSD). So I don’t know how I feel about that one yet. But one day I’ll get curious and look at it.

Plus they’re an easy enough edit to add to regular photos. Is not like it has to be one of the other unless there’s some secret art about actually shooting in BW that makes it somehow special-er.
