  • Dang, that labtop is so old it has a dialup modem built-in.

  • Look, having a big penis is not as beneficial as many would have you believe. Especially if your girl is petite...

  • Your embed doesn't work for me.

    Seems like it's because you used http instead of https:

  • Not necessarily bitter. Just not sweet.

  • The only reason I know the contents of most classic literature is because of "So You Haven't Read" series on YouTube.

  • He never said that asking nicely is out of the question.

  • I looked it up afterwards and yes, US eggnog is different from kogel mogel. For the latter you just whip egg with sugar and you're done. Former is much more involved, requires heating milk and stuff.

  • Dang it, I wasn't updated on this... BRB, gotta put alcohol into my kogel mogel...

  • 15,000 years in the past is absolutely not enough to go back to monke. Even just the modern homo sapiens existed for the past 150,000 years. But I suspect to expect those bros to know that is irrational.

  • Does this imply that American eggnog is alcoholic? I was told eggnog is what we call kogel mogel, which is just whipped egg and sugar, basically.

  • I see. Looks to me that they just rebrand cheap Chinese phones and sell them in Russian-speaking countries. I doubt they offer anything extra compared to the phones they rebrand, except maybe Russian translation for the UI.

  • IIRC, all new small electronics sold in EU should support USB-C, but there are some exceptions, which I don't remember. Mostly it was for wirelessly charging devices, like smartwatches and earbuds.

    Btw, does your username have anything to do with the capital of Azerbaijan?

  • Even for a 2020 release, it must be an outlier. Actually never heard of BQ Mobile until now. Apparently, they released their last phone in 2020, and in 2021 completely ceased operations. They were probably trying to use up all the remaining micro USB port modules to cut costs or something.

  • What phone is that? Genuinely curious. Was it actually manufactured in 2022 with micro USB?

  • I think the "Cat Looks Inside" meme would've been more appropriate, because the "Let's See Who This Really Is" (a.k.a. "Scooby Doo Reveal") meme is more about revealing something that is actually different, while CLI is sarcastic. Like "Wireless device. Look inside. Wires" isn't revealing anything serious but makes fun of the misleading nomenclature. A good SDR example would be pulling the mask off a KKK member to reveal a cop, while they are supposed to be on the opposite sides, they are one and the same.
    On the meme spectrum, SDR sits somewhere between CLI and "They are the Same Picture".

    Thank you for not coming to my MemTalk.

  • MagSafe/Qi2 is definitely convenient, but you have to be wary of its downsides. 2 of which are:

    • wireless induction wastes a good amount of energy being transferred
    • wireless induction additionally heats up the battery and reduces its lifespan

    But the good news is, it's basically the defacto standard. Since Apple opened up this standard it pretty much killed all the competition. The adoption is expected to increase in the coming years.

  • At the risk of sounding like Blizzard, don't you have a phone? Even my previous phone, Galaxy S8 had USB-C. Or do you have an old iPhone?

    Pretty much all electronics that came out in the past 4 years use USB-C. Just an example, here's a non-exhaustive list of things that I charge with C:

    • MacBook (2020)
    • iPad (2018)
    • Galaxy S10e (2019)
    • Steam Deck (2022)
    • Nintendo Switch (2017)
    • Kindle (2020)

    All of these are, on average, at least 4 years old. So I'm pretty sure the average consumer has already switched to primarily USB-C
