Listen, I keep saying that reality is better satire than satire, BUT COME ON!

Well fudge me sideways. Every day is a school day.

They’ve all got LPDDR5, so yeah, you’re unfortunately right. It feels kinda weird having to consider the 7000 and 8000-series last gen already; true as it is, though.

I really don’t know where you’re looking because I only see that in business-class laptops and even then not all of them have soldered RAM.

And I’m already counting the ones with one expansion slot with the soldered bunch.

Of course, if you paid attention only to HP, Dell and Lenovo, then I’d see why you’d think so. But beyond those brands, you don’t have that soldered nonsense everywhere. At the very least, you have things like Clevo, Framework and the like to sell you laptops without soldered ram.

I bet there are even websites that let you filter laptop models without soldered ram. Personally, I only know about Germany-based websites like that, though.

Don’t worry, Threads Pro will have you covered for an ad reduction for 3.99/mo.! And Threads Pro Plus for 5.99/mo. will get rid of them all by 2030!

I actually struggle with the same mental image. Anybody born after 2000 still goes to school in my mind.

I can’t describe the reaction I always have inside when I consciously realize that post-2000 kids can actually be adults. Not just because I realize how screwed my perception of time is but also because I suddenly feel old.

I’m happy I have y’all because I can satisfy my curiosity sparked by clickbait titles without ever giving those a click.

Seriously, the digest alone looks like the full thing is an absolute non-article.

I’d actually argue that most shareholders do know what a bad move it is but are willing to stay around for it because the average consumer has proven to begrudgingly live with adverts everywhere. Amazom gets away with it on Prime, mobile ads are even worse, and Youtube gets away with it despite the outrage… I wonder whether the ads would also lead to an ad-free Windows 365 subscription for consumers analogous to Youtube Premium.

Now I can’t not think about this.
