We used to get by with much less. If only we could start writing more efficient software again…

Gomi, an early $5 iOS game that involved eating successively larger objects until an objective was reached, utilizing the tilt feature. It had so much potential to be a game with a medium to large speedrun/highscore community.

Usually around $300/month:

• $50/month on bagels, my favorite food that I eat way too much of
• $120/month on other food at home like salads, homemade fried rice, and chicken nuggets
• $30/month on snacks like pretzels (it’s an addiction sadly)
• $100/month on going out to eat

My Internet is so bad that I still often watch YouTube/Nebula at 360p or even 240p. I almost never go above 720p.

The part that gets me is that the unlock is not automatic. I don’t like the fact that it is now for a year but now also Verizon has the upper hand to just refuse the unlock to anyone they don’t like.

I’ve done that and it’s significantly better because of that feature. Speaking of, is it possible to migrate blocklists from one account to another?

I’ve been using Lemmy less because it’s so depressing. It feels like a majority of the engagement is with depressing US politics and a strong left bias (to be clear, I also hate the current government). Unlike most, I really like most of the nerdy tech content.

Which is why I’ve been lurking more on Hacker News lately, it’s tech minded forums with an appropriate level of politics and more nuanced takes. And as a bonus the interface even less bloated (in terms of resource usage) than any Lemmy frontend I’ve tried.

GPUs will get more expensive as the VRAM will be diverted to much more profitable datacenter GPUs during the RAM shortage.
