This reads like something that should have been in Dogma.

This might be the last of it I can withstand. I hate existence now (somehow) more than ever.

I need to be honest here. I bought my current “gaming” laptop in 2020 because my PC got struck by lightning right at the height of the last GPU crisis and I needed something. It came with 8gb of RAM, upgradable to 32 gb. I have never needed more. That system runs Cyberpunk at 100 steady fps, and I have no desire to play anything more graphically intense than that.

That being said, I wanted to upgrade last year because it was possible. I looked up the price for SO-DIMM RAM right after it skyrocketed and said “nope, I’m good”.

Sounds cool. I do like the idea of sourcing it from the package manager, because honestly there is an insane amount of packages that go into a modern distro and knowing them all is either impractical or impossible. Something like this would also be nice for charity donations as well. It might exist for that, but if it does I’m unaware of it.

Around 2004 I had just recently graduated a shitty tech school as a DBA. Soon after I got a job via my father for one of his college buddies. My job was to convert old cobbled together FoxPro into something relatively modern. I was also hired simultaneously to the same company as a Java web developer and had to combine the two. I spent 2 hellish years there and haven’t touched code since, which sucks because I used to really love programming.

That’s too much omg

I mean, there is a nonzero chance that it was an accident.
