The creators of this video were generous enough to put the drone kill shot segment of the clip at the beginning; but I'd recommend you stick around for the rest of the video to catch an intimate glimpse of all that goes into putting on a Russian Middle Ages festival. Pretty kickass.
Fancy things require over-the-top, bougie care instructions, apparently. At least for the Apple Card anyway.
Apple published instructions for keeping your Apple credit card lookin' shiny the other day and people couldn't help but notice how ridiculous some of the steps are. No leather, denim, or loose change can come in contact with your card if you want to keep it from getting discolored.
Got it, soooo just never have it touch anything then...?
It feels like a year has passed since we Americans received that $1,200 stimulus check. While some people used the payment to pay rent or keep themselves afloat in the beginning of the pandemic, we noticed that some of our geekier friends were committed to spending that guap and stimulating the economy. Not by making a few frivolous clothing purchases or decking their home-prisons with houseplants. Instead, these crafty computer geeks dropped that sweet government money on fresh PC builds. Bright lights. Coolant. Enough memory to run some serious games. While these concepts might be lost on many of us, they're basically a religion over at r/pcmasterrace. The subreddit is a home for people eager to share their builds with like-minded individuals, and has proven itself to be a wonderful source for highly specific memes. We've thrown a few of them together here, but if you need more, the subreddit is flush with 'em. And we promise they won't crash your computer.
What a time to be alive...via The Seattle Times:
A few days after Microsoft released Windows 10 to the public last year, Teri Goldstein’s computer started trying to download and install the new operating system.
The update, which she says she didn’t authorize, failed. Instead, the computer she uses to run her Sausalito, Calif., travel-agency business slowed to a crawl. It would crash, she says, and be unusable for days at a time.
“I had never heard of Windows 10,” Goldstein said. “Nobody ever asked me if I wanted to update.”
When outreach to Microsoft’s customer support didn’t fix the issue, Goldstein took the software giant to court, seeking compensation for lost wages and the cost of a new computer.
If you thought tech companies couldn't possibly release a product more stupid than Tesla's Cybertruck, you'd be wrong! Apple just released its most expensive product ever today: the Mac Pro, which has a $6,000 base price and - get this - can cost all the way up to just over $100,000 if you want the absolute most powerful Mac that money can buy.
Purchasing the wheels alone will cost you a cool $400. Apple, you're just trolling us at this point, right? Honestly we think this computer is just some sort of weird flex for the disturbingly wealthy.
All we're saying here is, this damn thing better turn into a flying car, or have the ability to cure cancer or some sh*t.
