Its the same thing. People are just primed into thinking that censorship is universally bad in every instance.

Yeah OP, just mix tap water with your bourbon!

You should probably back up that save file before the battery goes.

If you’re afraid of visiting Russian websites, piracy is probably not for you.

Don’t worry, we have plenty of venomous spiders as well!

It’s funny hearing people say this here in Canada. Like we have polar bears and moose and shit. A moose will fuck you up a lot worse than a big spider or whatever. I’m much more fearful of our wildlife.

My dad faked having brain cancer when I was 9 to cover up a drug problem. He sent me to live with my mom to party while I believed he was on the brink of death.

We have a strained relationship now.

My grandfather drew a comic based on this joke in the late 60s, thanks for reminding of it!

Anyone can also use any exploits then find so you have to make sure you’re keeping up updating your devices. And every port you forward is an intrusion point into your network should someone want to hack you.

This is the part that scares the shit out of me. I bought a domain with the intention of making a little web 1.0 website for fun and to learn, but I have no real idea what I’m doing and the security risk makes it a non-starter :(

What an incredibly depressing position to be put in.

It might be the “objectively better” choice, but if I saw anyone enthusiastically pull that lever without a second thought I’d think they’re a psychopath. Like you’re still killing thousands upon thousands of people.

I’m not even saying don’t pull the lever, but it should eat at you.

Yeah.

Seriously, does anyone think Apple users care about unlocked bootloaders and LDAC codecs? They want whatever the new iOS features are and their AirPods to work seamlessly.

I have an Android phone and an iPhone, and they both do pretty much the same thing. I can do some things with Android that iOS can’t, but it’s nothing an average user couldn’t do without, or even know they’re missing.

Product elitism is dumb.

It’d be pretty funny if the Steam Deck couldn’t run Doom

I’m mad that the Gmail icon is no longer an envelope, but other than that they’re fine.

I used to love Simpsons Wrestling, because I didn’t know any better. I think I was too young to really grasp the concept of a “bad game” yet.

Its still fun to spin up in a nostalgic sort of way.

You were correct. PSUs be weird.

I purposely went with Seasonic because I did not want to run into power supply issues, but here we are.

Got a new one and am up and running

Finally fixed it, turns out it was the PSU.

No idea why it was testing fine, but I tried a different one in my machine and everything works fine :D

I didn’t :(

I admittedly haven’t had much time to mess with it, but I confirmed the PSU is working, so I suspect the motherboard is fried. Still need to confirm that before I order a new one, and figure out why it happened so I don’t do that again. I’m hoping my CPU is still fine.

I really appreciate everyone’s suggestions, helped me narrow it down a bit
