I'm obviously not techy, but when I was looking for a tablet, I was told I want a laptop or a 2 in 1 and I didn't want the ARM architecture because that's like mobile. I got a 2 in 1 tablet and they were right that I love it, so that's why I was asking.

I don't understand the comments in this thread, why would anyone want their laptops to act like their mobile devices? They have less privacy and they're harder to control. Am I missing something?

I don't agree with that headline at all:

But many residents said the aid was insufficient.

"All the stores are closed or destroyed," said Raul Busto Ramirez, 76, an engineer who works at Acapulco's airport. He blamed looting on shortages and said ATM machines were out of action, leaving people with no cash.

They're always trying to get more users and make it more popular too, when that's not the point of the fediverse.

How much do the studio, producer, directer, and showrunners make? I think the writers are equal to the producer, directer and showrunners at least. Do they make more than I do? Probably. All of us should be sharing in more of the profits, not taking others down.

Here's the history of residuals and they started in the 60's through a strike. Cheers to it working again. https://www.sagaftra.org/membership-benefits/residuals/history-residuals

I'm most interested in the guy who bought almost an entire Hawaiian island, that shouldn't be possible unless you're a native Hawaiian. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Ellison

We have a DVD store in Seattle that is loved by the city. I think it's employee owned too, not sure. https://www.scarecrow.com/index.html It's for obscure videos mainly.

I have had better than awesome interactions with the ancient coin and 3d printing communities. The 3d printing one set me up completely and I'm printing as I type. I started out as a total noob. The ancient coin took a couple of days to send me down the right the path. There are niche communities already here, I love lemmy.

There's another, but I'm not mentioning the name so they don't go after that one too.

I don't look forward to it but I don't think it's bad either. I try to live in one day at a time. Future angst brings me to standstill.
