If you're using VLC to play downloaded MKV and AVIs then injected threats are far from uncommon.

If a person already has a source for content they trust then go with torrents but if they don't then it isn't safer at all.

The 18 hours from Mac Book is also manufacturer specificied, and if random reddit comments are proof of widespread malpractice then here: https://www.reddit.com/r/macbook/comments/1d6jtuh/battery_problem_on_macbook_pro_m3_pro/

Pretty easy to identify, quarantine, and repair threats from a browser compared to downloads.

I didn't say Dell was good, I said your claim was bullshit.

You shouldnt be using sleep overnight to begin with, you should use Hibernate. Sleep leaves the computer on unattended. Skill issue on that one.

TIL that 18 hours is 2x, 3x, or even 5x the 19 hours you get from a 2024 Dell.

Lmao yessir Ima so poora can't afford a machine that forces obsolescence every few years, made in a sweatshop, not allowed to repair, made a deal with ARM to kill off competition, walled garden designed, lobbies the governments, takes a picture of you every few seconds, preferred by the CCP machine.

Oh gosh if only I could afford a new machine every 3 years from Apple but it costs approximately $70 per month oh no so expensive ohmagod how can we mere peasants?

Listen dude you're paying more to save a negligible amount on power, have a battery that lasts slightly longer than the competitors and much longer than anybody will ever need it to, and suffer much worse customer service. And you think its a status symbol or sign of wealth? You got scammed.

Facts about why you should pay more to an unethical company for a use case that doesn't exist smells like a sales pitch to me.

Where are you going to work on your computer for 16 hours straight without access to a wall outlet?

Oh wow thats so cool, Apple should introduce a way to trade in vital organs to make it more accessible to people of your capacity.

And that was unironically the good ending.

Art or Not Art doesn't decide if it stays up in public.

Let's look at the instant replay.

I want you to think deeply about if all porn is inherently artistic or if porn depictions have a separate circumstance.

Look at that. I didn't say it wasn't art. Wow.
