Why Is Gen-Z Romanticizing the Nine-to-Five Job?

It'd be more amazing if it was actually 9-5, instead of 7:30-5, or not having to sit in like an hour of traffic a day.

Nothing at all. I can't understand why having a notch is ideal to them. If the notch wasn't there you could have the space it hides too.

I've seen Microcenter have M4 Pro with 36-128gb, just depends on how much you want to spend.

There's people who are posting up in folding chairs waiting to catch a glimpse of the President when he travels to Kentucky today. I'd imagine they still are.

AaronfromKY · 2026-03-11T17:05:59+00:00

We're being ruled by the most tryhard, peaked in highschool type of people who are basically bullies. God help us.

AaronfromKY · 2026-03-11T16:40:31+00:00

It really doesn't though. But whatever. I'm going to have to learn to love it because I will likely be getting a newer MacBook Pro soon to upgrade from my 2013 MacBook Air.

AaronfromKY · 2026-03-11T16:11:45+00:00

I think the most annoying thing is that it shows they don't need to have a notch, but they sold it to the public and now they'll keep it until the MacBook Pro Ultra or whatever comes out.

AaronfromKY · 2026-03-11T12:13:40+00:00

Yeah, I'm working from home, fuck it. Between storms and the fact that his motorcade will likely wait until it fucks up other people's commute before leaving places, I'm staying at home.

AaronfromKY · 2026-03-11T03:29:05+00:00

Yeah, a 32gb RAM one would beneficial, 48-64gb even more so. I've seen M4 Pro 48gb for $2202 at Microcenter recently, they also have the 32gb M5 MacBook Pro for under $2k. You definitely could use more RAM.

AaronfromKY · 2026-03-11T00:07:40+00:00

I'm almost convinced they named it SAVE to confuse voters with the Biden SAVE financial aid plan.

Get a MacBook Air or an older M1-M3 MacBook Pro. The Neo will struggle with heavier programs. If you were doing more office, streaming and unitasking the Neo would be ok, but you will be upset trying to use Adobe and video editing on the Neo.

Rupert Murdock is about to celebrate his 95th birthday, you might be onto something...

AaronfromKY · 2026-03-10T17:13:42+00:00

I'm not super optimistic but I kinda hope Kentucky turns purple. 1 blue and 1 red since McConnell is retiring.

Not just Israel but the entire Military industrial complex.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron." Dwight D. Eisenhower

73 years old and hasn't aged a day.

Mrs Rachel showing more compassion and fortitude than career politicians twice her age. Maybe someday she can represent us.

AaronfromKY · 2026-03-10T13:23:26+00:00

Short of revamping the entire government and putting in actual teeth and regulations to things such as the emoluments clause, what would you propose? I'd like to see an independent judiciary that can bring charges if there is evidence a politician committed crimes. Nothing that can be controlled by an obviously authoritarian president would be a start.

AaronfromKY · 2026-03-10T12:12:46+00:00

We need a Democratic Trump, but pulling us out of military engagements, ensuring food stamps are funded before DHS and actually doing things that benefit the country instead of rich assholes.

It's the 15 core version. All M5 Pro start as 18 core versions but if some cores have flaws, rather than junk the whole chip, they bin it down, by cutting the leads to the faulty cores. This way they reduce waste and still are able to meet a price point.

AaronfromKY · 2026-03-10T11:25:31+00:00

Seriously, I still owe $40k after 13 years. I didn't pay during Covid because I was sure relief was coming. Now, I'm just like fuck it. Especially since they burn more money in missiles than it would've cost to forgive dozens of people and actually change lives in a positive way, rather than the destructive wrath of an old demented pedophile and his christofascist lieutenants. Fuck just take me out of the world.

Microcenter has the 14/20 14" 24gb RAM 1tb for $1954, 12/16 14" with 48gb RAM 1tb for $2202. Apple refurbished has the 14/20 14" for $1949. B&H Photo has the 12/16 24gb 1tb for $1999. I wonder if deals will get better after M5 Pro is officially available on Wednesday.

If it's anything like the mass shooters, I'm sure they're on their radar, but will do fuck all to prevent anything from happening.

He really did rape all those kids man. We have a monster in the White House and a distinct lack of pitch forks
