That’s not a reasonable solution for laptops

A couple years? Hah! Once apple gives it 16 GB that’s gonna be the same amount they have for like 15 years

Fyi the word for nieces and nephews is niblings. That way you can just say a single word

Lowest of the low. You have to be a truly terrible person to steal money from hard working low-paid people

If i could freeze technology at a particular era it wouldn’t be the 80s. I think i would pick some time after social media existed but before it was weaponized. So like maybe early 2010’s.

That’s so odd, i thought usually sports car speedometers go higher than the car is actually able to achieve in order to trick people into thinking it’s actually capable of going that fast. But now that i think about it i guess that was just an assumption

I was once on an empty road that was straight all the way to the horizon and i got it up to 100. I woulda gone higher but my passenger didn’t want to
