also watch lain [2025-10-14T16:30:02Z] but i also left those first two episodes just super confused [2025-10-14T16:30:10Z] which i guess is probably intentional [2025-10-14T16:30:32Z] you just kind of have to ~open your mind~ and let it happen [2025-10-14T16:31:27Z] i think tame impala has a song about that [2025-10-14T16:31:42Z] who [2025-10-14T16:32:17Z] why are we talking about tame imps [2025-10-14T16:32:27Z] that's actually a little surprising [2025-10-14T16:32:38Z] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFptt7Cargc [2025-10-14T16:33:45Z] what did you expect from me [2025-10-14T16:34:51Z] fair enough [2025-10-14T17:51:13Z] midfavila: i dont think this is very kris-coded [2025-10-14T17:54:13Z] it is [2025-10-14T17:54:18Z] you're definitely an ena sort of person [2025-10-14T17:54:36Z] i have no idea what ena is [2025-10-14T17:54:55Z] kris-coded [2025-10-14T17:54:57Z] :3c [2025-10-14T17:57:36Z] :gun: [2025-10-14T17:58:04Z] oh i watched a movie for the first time in forever the other day, 28 years later [2025-10-14T17:58:38Z] a lot better than the original two imo but it was very much a movie that i watched and was like "ok" [2025-10-14T17:58:59Z] 28 years later was one of the movies of all time [2025-10-14T17:59:04Z] i haven't seen the original two [2025-10-14T17:59:08Z] it indeed was one of the movies of all time [2025-10-14T17:59:24Z] i feel like 28yl is a very culturally specific movie [2025-10-14T17:59:24Z] the first one had a lot of artistic value [2025-10-14T17:59:26Z] like maybe i just wasn't the target audience [2025-10-14T17:59:28Z] the second one was kinda lame [2025-10-14T17:59:32Z] but still decent [2025-10-14T17:59:42Z] i also feel like 28yl had a lot of whiplash [2025-10-14T17:59:47Z] again maybe that's intentional [2025-10-14T17:59:58Z] and it's meant to be like some sort of meta commentary [2025-10-14T17:59:59Z] wym whiplash [2025-10-14T18:00:08Z] did you watch all the way to the end [2025-10-14T18:00:13Z] yeah i saw the entire thing [2025-10-14T18:00:23Z] you know the last scene in the movie w/ the kid and then all that *stuff* happens when he's running [2025-10-14T18:00:25Z] i dont really get the significance of the beginning and ending but w/e [2025-10-14T18:00:29Z] trying to avoid spoilers [2025-10-14T18:00:31Z] yeah ik what you're talking about [2025-10-14T18:00:33Z] but like yeah [2025-10-14T18:00:36Z] that's super whiplashy [2025-10-14T18:00:54Z] you have this super emotional moment that's kind of serious and sombre and then BAM [2025-10-14T18:01:02Z] i dont think i felt any emotion at all during that movie [2025-10-14T18:01:13Z] * midfavila shrugs [2025-10-14T18:01:17Z] i thought it was pretty good overall [2025-10-14T18:01:59Z] idk im jaded with modern movies [2025-10-14T18:02:11Z] a lot of them seem super shallow [2025-10-14T18:02:31Z] everything is shallow lmao [2025-10-14T18:02:37Z] always has been i reckon [2025-10-14T18:02:51Z] idk we'll see [2025-10-14T18:02:58Z] i downloaded a handful of things people have been demanding i watch for years [2025-10-14T18:03:01Z] nobody is going to be discussing the artistic merits of capeshit slop #192792677 in fifty years just like how most of us aren't discussing idk the merit of the day the earth stood still or something [2025-10-14T18:03:02Z] fight club / the shining notably [2025-10-14T18:03:09Z] WATCH LAIN [2025-10-14T18:03:11Z] L [2025-10-14T18:03:12Z] A [2025-10-14T18:03:12Z] I [2025-10-14T18:03:13Z] N [2025-10-14T18:03:36Z] i will GOSH [2025-10-14T18:03:38Z] dery: sewn: i summon thee [2025-10-14T18:03:46Z] force kris_ to watch the computer show [2025-10-14T18:04:04Z] i don't watch much stuff i've already overextended by watching 28 years later the other day [2025-10-14T18:04:06Z] literally just put it on a second monitor [2025-10-14T18:04:19Z] or third or fourth [2025-10-14T18:04:27Z] i know you have a shitload hooked up [2025-10-14T18:04:34Z] only 2 and it really pisses me off [2025-10-14T18:04:49Z] though sway tabs make it usable [2025-10-14T18:05:03Z] makin me ANGY >:CCC [2025-10-14T18:05:10Z] go get some at the landfill [2025-10-14T18:05:27Z] i have 2 extras i just dont have the room to hook them up [2025-10-14T18:05:30Z] i feel like 3 is the optimal number of monitors [2025-10-14T18:05:48Z] i also feel like 3 is optimal [2025-10-14T18:06:02Z] i've had 4 and 5 and while they were nice to have i didn't find them to be nearly as much of a return on investment as 1->2 and 2->3 [2025-10-14T18:06:09Z] like after 3 you just have diminishing returns [2025-10-14T18:06:27Z] if i had 4 the 4th would have nothing on it most of the time [2025-10-14T18:06:56Z] sway tabs are pretty OP though so 2 isnt the worst thing ever [2025-10-14T18:06:58Z] i usually have one for what i'm actively working on, another for reference materials, a third for comms and stuff [2025-10-14T18:07:06Z] on my second monitor i have discord open + a tabbed container with OBS, senpai, and cmus [2025-10-14T18:07:13Z] and on my main monitor at the moment emacs and my browser [2025-10-14T18:07:21Z] do u write lisp [2025-10-14T18:07:33Z] lol no [2025-10-14T18:07:36Z] why [2025-10-14T18:07:43Z] i didnt configure this whatsoever, i use doom emacs [2025-10-14T18:07:49Z] i just enable what i want and rebuild [2025-10-14T18:08:07Z] why *would* i [2025-10-14T18:08:13Z] beCAUSE [2025-10-14T18:08:15Z] lisp is COOL [2025-10-14T18:08:24Z] once i find a use for it ill let you know [2025-10-14T18:08:28Z] recently ive been writing mostly go and python [2025-10-14T18:08:50Z] i *really* don't like python but it is what is [2025-10-14T18:09:32Z] you can use lisp for literally whatever you use those for [2025-10-14T18:09:35Z] >:c [2025-10-14T18:09:49Z] ive not been doing anything linux related recently for the most part [2025-10-14T18:10:06Z] go to write the iw4x discord bot and python to write a portable script to strip mw2 for dedicated server use [2025-10-14T18:10:12Z] what computer show [2025-10-14T18:10:22Z] mid is angy because i only watched the first two episodes of lain [2025-10-14T18:10:31Z] and youre not gonna watch more? [2025-10-14T18:10:37Z] i will i just dont care enough to do it promptly [2025-10-14T18:10:43Z] i think you shouldnt [2025-10-14T18:10:57Z] why's that [2025-10-14T18:10:57Z] wha [2025-10-14T18:10:58Z] ive already watched lain a few times myself and every single time it just gets more and more confusing [2025-10-14T18:11:10Z] yeah that's the vibe i got from the first two episodes lol [2025-10-14T18:11:11Z] sewn this isn't why i summoned you [2025-10-14T18:11:12Z] go away [2025-10-14T18:11:14Z] >:CCCC [2025-10-14T18:11:19Z] the entire premise and point of the show is up to the watcher to interpret [2025-10-14T18:11:35Z] i'll definitely finish it [2025-10-14T18:11:48Z] i just dont consoom much media other than music [2025-10-14T18:11:50Z] and don't really want to [2025-10-14T18:12:24Z] midfavila: also also also uni kinda blows [2025-10-14T18:12:39Z] yeah wait until you graduate into a shitty job market [2025-10-14T18:12:51Z] and then don't get any early career experience and end up realising you've wasted four years [2025-10-14T18:12:51Z] it mostly blows because i can't fucking stand 95% of the people around me [2025-10-14T18:12:57Z] also yes people bad [2025-10-14T18:13:04Z] and yeah thats exactly what im expecting to happen [2025-10-14T18:13:09Z] this isnt something i wanted to do, it's a move of appeasement [2025-10-14T18:14:03Z] philosophy class is kinda cool [2025-10-14T18:14:06Z] american government blows ass [2025-10-14T18:14:18Z] biology is boring, public speaking is possibly the most pointless thing on earth and it's required for general ed [2025-10-14T18:15:20Z] throw copies of the communist manifesto at everyone [2025-10-14T18:15:23Z] i think the problem is that i'm not around computer people [2025-10-14T18:15:27Z] i'm around just normal people [2025-10-14T18:15:29Z] i mean, don't, because then you'd get arrested for being a terrorist [2025-10-14T18:15:32Z] bc america [2025-10-14T18:15:36Z] but like also that would be funny [2025-10-14T18:15:41Z] i was thinking about getting a che guevara t shirt just to piss people off [2025-10-14T18:15:46Z] but then i realized the irony of purchasing that from amazon [2025-10-14T18:16:31Z] * midfavila nods [2025-10-14T18:16:47Z] my coworker wishes you luck with your bachelors in counterstrike from the university of costco [2025-10-14T18:16:52Z] and also he says hi [2025-10-14T18:16:56Z] wtf [2025-10-14T18:16:58Z] hello [2025-10-14T18:17:13Z] lmao [2025-10-14T18:17:15Z] also lol i went into the esports arena to hang out the other day and i really don't like most of the people in there so dont think im going to go back [2025-10-14T18:17:18Z] on that note [2025-10-14T18:17:32Z] i tried to start a conversation with the organizer about the hardware they were using on the desktops and he just outright didnt know [2025-10-14T18:17:40Z] lmao [2025-10-14T18:17:44Z] rofl even [2025-10-14T18:17:46Z] and i accidentally keep speaking my mind recently [2025-10-14T18:18:06Z] i walked in at like 5pm the other day and he goes "uhhh what are you doing here" and i replied "just seeing what people are up to" and he replies "we're actually closed for varsity right now" [2025-10-14T18:18:11Z] at an *american* university? are you trying to get shot? [2025-10-14T18:18:17Z] and he got irritated at my comment of "maybe close the god damn door then" [2025-10-14T18:18:22Z] and then i just kinda left once i realized i didnt filter that [2025-10-14T18:18:24Z] haven't you ever heard of kent state? smdh [2025-10-14T18:19:02Z] one of my friends got iirc like 3 days off due to the charlie kirk thing [2025-10-14T18:19:04Z] since he goes to that uni [2025-10-14T18:19:17Z] hope he had a wicked party [2025-10-14T18:19:30Z] but my american government class is chock full of charlie kirk types [2025-10-14T18:19:44Z] see that's part of why i don't even do anything irl any more [2025-10-14T18:19:44Z] except for one girl that has been told to chill out by the professor a few times because she's a "leftie" [2025-10-14T18:20:01Z] i'm so tired of everyone fucking acting like kirk was some sort of saint [2025-10-14T18:20:04Z] he was a piece of shit [2025-10-14T18:20:11Z] world is better off without him in it [2025-10-14T18:20:17Z] i dont understand how someone so unbelievably stupid and malicious became a martyr [2025-10-14T18:20:27Z] that guy never once had an actual discussion with anyone [2025-10-14T18:20:29Z] because he was "just speaking his mind" [2025-10-14T18:20:39Z] that guy was a walking fallacy [2025-10-14T18:20:45Z] or he is the goalpost he moves [2025-10-14T18:20:46Z] or etc [2025-10-14T18:21:00Z] yeah but america has an average reading comprehension of like eighth year or something [2025-10-14T18:21:04Z] canada isn't much better [2025-10-14T18:21:15Z] i don't think most people understand what a fallacy is or why one would be used or why it's relevant [2025-10-14T18:21:23Z] that's why sophists have so much power in public discourse [2025-10-14T18:21:33Z] not to act like i'm some fucking titan of intellect myself but still [2025-10-14T18:22:08Z] idk my philosophy class is turning me into a douchebag [2025-10-14T18:22:22Z] because now i see all of these logical errors people are making because that's exactly what this class is trying to get to happen [2025-10-14T18:22:31Z] not that i'm like smart or whatever for that but like [2025-10-14T18:22:36Z] maybe instead of other things this should be a required class [2025-10-14T18:22:45Z] well no it's just once you start seeing stuff it becomes hard to un-see [2025-10-14T18:23:10Z] but really my main complaint is the workload [2025-10-14T18:23:19Z] i dont WANT to write a civil discussion between a conservative and a democrat [2025-10-14T18:23:33Z] i dont WANT to read 6 chapters on public speaking when it literally is as simple as just go in front of a group of people and start talking [2025-10-14T18:23:39Z] which is why i think that class is fucking pointless [2025-10-14T18:23:45Z] 90% of the book is about just not being nervous [2025-10-14T18:24:25Z] the rest of it is just ethics because those who give speeches are powerful or w/e [2025-10-14T18:24:28Z] you could always be maliciously compliant and write the dempublikkkan and republikkkrat agreeing on everything except how to spin wanting to bomb children to the public [2025-10-14T18:24:52Z] i dont think my professor would be very happy with that [2025-10-14T18:24:56Z] who cares lmfao [2025-10-14T18:25:03Z] maybe they shouldn't give out stupid ass assignments [2025-10-14T18:25:09Z] apparently on my test thursday i have to explain why i'm either a democrat or a republican [2025-10-14T18:25:20Z] and im trying to decide how to answer that when both are evil [2025-10-14T18:25:23Z] bruv [2025-10-14T18:25:46Z] that's the stupidest shit i've heard in a while [2025-10-14T18:25:53Z] who the fuck is teaching this class [2025-10-14T18:26:02Z] someone who unironically worked for ronald reagan at one point [2025-10-14T18:26:05Z] like not joking [2025-10-14T18:26:17Z] he's one of those "center-left" types [2025-10-14T18:26:20Z] professional fence sitter [2025-10-14T18:26:26Z] oh, so he's a piece of shit then [2025-10-14T18:26:28Z] opinion discarded [2025-10-14T18:26:38Z] idk his views shifted after a little bit [2025-10-14T18:26:49Z] but reagan really was the devil so idk how anyone could ever be okay with what that guy did [2025-10-14T18:26:52Z] the only question that needs answering is whether or not he's a tory [2025-10-14T18:27:01Z] if someone's a tory in earnest then they can fuck right off [2025-10-14T18:27:09Z] regardless [2025-10-14T18:27:15Z] none of this is entertaining to me [2025-10-14T18:27:34Z] it's entertaining to me at least [2025-10-14T18:27:38Z] i appreciate your suffering [2025-10-14T18:27:38Z] :3 [2025-10-14T18:27:47Z] but yeah i'm not jealous of you [2025-10-14T18:27:51Z] i wouldn't be able to do it [2025-10-14T18:27:57Z] on another note apparently one of the other iw4x devs lives really close to me [2025-10-14T18:28:00Z] unbelievably small world [2025-10-14T18:28:36Z] midfavila: it's fine for now, it's a gap filler in my time until i can find a job or at least get an internship via my school [2025-10-14T18:28:47Z] they hold internship/job things like twice per month where 60+ employers show up [2025-10-14T18:28:59Z] i just don't have clothes that would be considered "appropriate" [2025-10-14T18:29:15Z] havent gone shopping for clothes in a while because i dont mind wearing stuff that has holes and whatnot [2025-10-14T18:29:20Z] but gotta go soon i guess [2025-10-14T18:29:31Z] buy a decent pair of pants and a shirt from patagonia [2025-10-14T18:29:36Z] LOL no [2025-10-14T18:29:51Z] like 60-80USD for a decent outfit and you'll never need to buy stuff again [2025-10-14T18:29:54Z] im gonna just get a generic pair of khahki pants since apparently jeans are unprofessional and i already have an old button up [2025-10-14T18:30:03Z] yeah you gotta have slacks [2025-10-14T18:30:11Z] braindead ngl [2025-10-14T18:30:14Z] why would you care that im wearing jeans [2025-10-14T18:30:15Z] it is yes [2025-10-14T18:30:38Z] my opinion is that it's a form of ritual submission and humiliation imposed by employers upon prospective employees [2025-10-14T18:30:38Z] its not even a show of respect when it takes the same amount of time to put on both pairs of pants so its not like i went through extra effort to "look nice" [2025-10-14T18:30:43Z] that has to be exactly what it is [2025-10-14T18:31:04Z] it's just a test to see if you'll comply with their expectations without needing to be coerced explicitly [2025-10-14T18:31:22Z] stallman has an entire thing about why he won't wear ties bc of this [2025-10-14T18:31:30Z] stallman is based idc what anyone says [2025-10-14T18:31:46Z] ive never worn a tie in my life and also probably won't [2025-10-14T18:31:59Z] https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/7418315-as-a-matter-of-principle-i-refuse-to-own-a [2025-10-14T18:32:07Z] i've worn ties to court before [2025-10-14T18:32:12Z] but i also like dressing up sometimes [2025-10-14T18:32:19Z] i won't wear a tie to work though. [2025-10-14T18:32:21Z] i dress like i'm in a thrash metal band [2025-10-14T18:32:43Z] a judge is important. some faceless middle manager at numbered corporation AJF-2918-DHDJWI10284571 isn't [2025-10-14T18:32:50Z] and i dont really wear clothes that aren't black [2025-10-14T18:32:59Z] my clothes are like [2025-10-14T18:33:04Z] so i have five pairs of pants [2025-10-14T18:33:05Z] and five shirts [2025-10-14T18:33:07Z] at least here im not expected to take my earring out, in my hometown having an earring was like a big nono [2025-10-14T18:33:13Z] all made of the exact same material in the exact same colour [2025-10-14T18:33:21Z] and i just rotate those throughout the week lol [2025-10-14T18:33:34Z] i'm a fan of black cargo pants + a metal band shirt or something [2025-10-14T18:33:43Z] i just need to go buy those things [2025-10-14T18:33:44Z] though ALL of my shirts are band shirts [2025-10-14T18:33:51Z] other than my flannels obviously, every man has to have flannels [2025-10-14T18:33:57Z] my base layer is just OD [2025-10-14T18:34:29Z] i don't bother with flannel [2025-10-14T18:34:37Z] my hat and scarf are tweed though [2025-10-14T18:34:40Z] i just think flannels look good [2025-10-14T18:34:50Z] i have one in my jacket that i wear mostly as a jacket type of thing [2025-10-14T18:34:53Z] one in my backpack* [2025-10-14T18:34:55Z] like always [2025-10-14T18:35:38Z] i just wear a vest [2025-10-14T18:35:39Z] = w= [2025-10-14T18:35:51Z] i have a leather jacket for when it gets actually cold [2025-10-14T18:35:58Z] but until then t shirt + flannel works out [2025-10-14T18:36:28Z] also i dont think ive ever seen a scarf irl [2025-10-14T18:36:36Z] my stepmom offered to make me one the other day, she's taken up knitting [2025-10-14T18:37:00Z] scarves are nice [2025-10-14T18:38:30Z] i spent a little more money than necessary on getting a nice hat from hanna hats in ireland [2025-10-14T18:38:33Z] they made my scarf too [2025-10-14T18:38:45Z] nothing wrong with buying things that are nice [2025-10-14T18:38:50Z] both are made of harris tweed from scotland [2025-10-14T18:39:02Z] very warm and comfy [2025-10-14T18:39:02Z] usually i buy higher quality stuff compared to saving money because it doesnt save money to buy some garbage that is going to have to be replaced in ayear [2025-10-14T18:39:08Z] yeah. [2025-10-14T18:39:13Z] something something boots theory [2025-10-14T18:39:20Z] i still like my timberland boots a lot [2025-10-14T18:39:37Z] questionable choice to go with nubuck though because ive visibly scratched it up a lot [2025-10-14T18:39:42Z] not that theres a problem with that, it just doesnt look as clean [2025-10-14T18:40:22Z] just polish it [2025-10-14T18:40:27Z] with some dubbin [2025-10-14T18:40:43Z] if you put some elbow grease into it you can get a nice shine [2025-10-14T18:42:46Z] im alright [2025-10-14T18:42:51Z] usually i just use paper towel and water [2025-10-14T18:42:55Z] AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA NO [2025-10-14T18:42:57Z] to clean, not polish [2025-10-14T18:43:00Z] ??

[2025-10-14T18:45:42Z] nobody told me about this [2025-10-14T18:45:46Z] well now you know [2025-10-14T18:45:46Z] :3 [2025-10-14T18:45:53Z] ill look into it [2025-10-14T18:45:56Z] ideally these last a while [2025-10-14T18:46:02Z] ive had them for like a year and have wiped them off with water probably like 3 times [2025-10-14T18:46:07Z] i used the same pair of boots for about twelve years bc i kept up on maintenance [2025-10-14T18:46:08Z] or i just walk in the snow and that gets them clean [2025-10-14T18:46:13Z] it's not just about cleaning [2025-10-14T18:46:28Z] the water will soak into the leather and cause it to swell and stretch and deform over time [2025-10-14T18:46:37Z] wait until you find out i didnt know nubuck was leather [2025-10-14T18:46:41Z] bruv [2025-10-14T18:46:53Z] >matte black [2025-10-14T18:46:56Z] >looks nice, high quality [2025-10-14T18:47:00Z] looks good to me [2025-10-14T18:47:08Z] stg [2025-10-14T18:47:16Z] at least they aren't uggs or w/e [2025-10-14T18:47:17Z] its ok i know now [2025-10-14T18:47:21Z] you would wear uggs i bet [2025-10-14T18:47:27Z] the fuck is an ugg [2025-10-14T18:47:53Z] shitty overpriced leather boots and shoes lol [2025-10-14T18:47:53Z] the supreme of the leather shoe world [2025-10-14T18:48:24Z] i need some more heavy as fuck cotton t shirts [2025-10-14T18:48:41Z] duluth trading is good [2025-10-14T18:48:46Z] very affordable too [2025-10-14T18:48:51Z] im just going to go to bass pro and see what they have [2025-10-14T18:48:56Z] bass pro clothes are always mega quality somehow [2025-10-14T18:57:39Z] hmm [2025-10-14T20:17:58Z] ugh my boss keeps telling me to post stuff on our social media accounts and i keep trying to explain to him that i need stuff *to* post, like b-roll and photos from our jobs and shit [2025-10-14T20:18:03Z] we've done this song and dance like five times already [2025-10-14T20:18:15Z] i can't just keep posting the same three pictures over and over again = w=; [2025-10-14T21:20:54Z] man why is pine64 still trying to do stuff with mobile projects after they publically announced they were dumping pinephones in favour of their stupid AI bullshit? [2025-10-14T21:22:26Z] they said a few years ago that they were going to make a stripped-down handheld too and then that just vanished [2025-10-14T21:29:50Z] pine64 sucks [2025-10-14T21:29:59Z] they make ewaste professionally [2025-10-14T21:31:03Z] some of their equipment is good but yeah i have to agree [2025-10-14T21:31:35Z] i'm not saying i expect them to provide full software support right out of the gate but you need to have at least one or two people working part-time on bringup of something like a barebones debian [2025-10-14T21:31:49Z] if you can't do that and you can't be bothered to secure free software friendly hardware then don't bother [2025-10-14T21:32:19Z] i have to wonder how much of the vibe around pine64 is hype [2025-10-14T21:33:10Z] like i can appreciate what they're doing for what it's worth [2025-10-14T21:33:27Z] low-cost hardware that's designed to be repaired and modified is what we should be aiming for [2025-10-14T21:33:39Z] the problem is that they just kind of slap shit together and dump it onto the market without a plan [2025-10-14T21:33:49Z] look at the pinebooks for example. idek if you can buy them any more. [2025-10-14T21:33:58Z] i know the standard one has been unavailable for years [2025-10-14T21:34:11Z] i mean even then [2025-10-14T21:34:14Z] they've made like 2 good things [2025-10-14T21:34:17Z] the pinecil and the pinetime [2025-10-14T21:34:19Z] it doesn't even need to be high performance. if you can match an x200 or thereabouts then you're fine. [2025-10-14T21:34:25Z] also the rockpro is decent! [2025-10-14T21:34:39Z] the computer i built for my boss' company is a rockpro [2025-10-14T21:34:51Z] has a lil' tiny IBM SAS controller in there [2025-10-14T21:35:23Z] but yeah my main critique is like... they don't design things to be upgradeable at all, and they don't commit to things [2025-10-14T21:35:37Z] for example, the pinenote. great device. zero support for the community. [2025-10-14T21:35:50Z] it's taken like 4 years for a prototype debian image to be put together as a result. [2025-10-14T21:36:07Z] you can't replace the eMMC inside with their socketed versions, nor can you even put an SD card in there. [2025-10-14T21:36:37Z] their argument as for not having a slot was that the cases were picked up as surplus, but you can just leave it on the inside only. that would still be better than only having an eMMC. [2025-10-14T21:37:46Z] i would also hesitate to call the pinetime a good product but that's more because smartwatches as a whole are fucking stupid lmfao [2025-10-14T21:38:05Z] if you just want an accurate electronic watch get a terrorist watch [2025-10-14T21:38:12Z] they're like 12$ and bulletproof [2025-10-14T21:47:53Z] s/terrorist/casio f-91w [2025-10-14T21:48:12Z] casio watches are based [2025-10-14T21:48:24Z] and yeah smartwatches are dumb but i miss texts and my pinetime solves that [2025-10-14T21:49:01Z] stop carrying a phone [2025-10-14T21:49:11Z] if nobody can text you then you can't miss text messages [2025-10-14T21:49:45Z]
