I try to respond to every genuine engagement. I block trolls, contrarians, and provocateurs because life is too short.

  • All they really mean, but won’t say, is that memory makes them more money than phones - so they no longer give a fuck about phones.

    Samsung Mobile division is complaining here that memory is so expensive they can’t afford to put a phone out at a set price for more than a few weeks without starting to lose money.

    Samsung Memory division meanwhile: our profits are so obscene that we’ve raised the entire company profits 800% this year.

    Its literally two divisions in the same damn office, their directors sit in the same boardroom - Samsung Electronics.






  • I don’t really run into ads so no.

    All I’m saying is I’ve seen many beautiful ladies age with a very similar change in facial structure from Megan’s before and after photos at top in 20 years (and yeah, it’s semi-shockingly been ~20 years between those photos).

    P. S. Yeah you’re right Laura Loomer. That’s definitely surgery on her, much larger change and shorter time-scale.






  • Have you tried pulling the CMOS battery?

    Depending on how old the laptop is, that should work fine. Just find a manual or guide to help you locate the battery, and remove it for 30 mins (main battery too, of course). This will cause a full BIOS config loss and it will reset to defaults when you replace the batteries and reboot it.

    This will not work if the laptop is a newer UEFI ‘bios’ though, and you’re stuck trying to flash firmware with a password reset, as you’ve been doing. Acer shouldn’t need to identify your laptop to give you bios files I’d think - you can usually bypass those automatic searches and instead search for your laptop model manually. I’ve not updated an Acer laptop in a long time though, they may have enshittified the process.

    Good luck on your adventure
