This.

Most of my friends aren’t Linux/tech enthusiasts at all, but they do build their PCs because it’s cheaper, and they’re all over intel and nvidia. One even asked me for an advice on what GPU to get under a certain budget, and the fucker wouldn’t listen to my AMD recommendations, despite the very obvious advantage to his wallet and performance he was looking for.

Intel + Nvidia pretty much dominate the pre-built market, too. I was in a tech store recently and, as usual, gazed at some PCs and laptops they had over there just for the sake of it, and nearly every single one of them was intel+nvidia, for the very exception of a full AMD laptop.

I don’t know when they introduced it, but at some point, in some servers, I noticed a new channel type: forum. The fact that this is a thing is the greatest proof that Discord is not the end all, be all solution to communication.

Nothing is, really. One thing I really enjoyed about the 00s web was its diversity, because different things had different places and different formats, and the ever-lasting stakeholder grasp wasn’t as successful at trying to put people in one place to show them ads and drive engagement to please the statistics gazers.
