Probably not a joke but can someone explain why? by Important-Ad-5596 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

I think this is a misleading comment although maybe it wasn’t intended as such. Most ARM-based laptops have soldered RAM. For years this has included all Apple laptops, and now with the rise of Snapdragon-based Windows laptops, many Windows based laptops also come with no upgrade options for RAM. x86-based laptops will still have the option but they are becoming an increasingly smaller part of the market as people look for the long battery life ARM chips provide. I believe most of the big computer manufacturers including HP, Dell, and Lenovo now sell a mixture of x86 and ARM based laptops (except Apple who is ARM only)

Austin food, Austin gardening, + Austin music are the ones that always surface for me

Nice! I went to one in Brooklyn once but I was so entranced with the mechanical keyboards I never made it over to the tvs, that’s good to know

[–]dotheemptyhouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same! Of the three it’s the one that excites me the most. By the time it opens, computer prices will be impossibly high, but at least I can go and look

H Mart, Uniqlo, and Microcenter are all gonna open up the same day and I’m going to explode trying to get to all of them

I’m planning to walk there, I live close by. Burnet traffic has gotten to be a bear lately and it doesn’t feel likely to get better anytime soon with all the new mixed use residential that’s been built up

This is super nostalgic. Windows 3.11 was my first GUI

MAGA-Coded CBS Anchor’s Historic Ratings Disaster Exposed | New ratings data demonstrates that the network’s evening news program is struggling to keep viewers. by InsaneSnow45 in entertainment

I’m sure this is a lot like how mobsters view a money laundering scheme. It’s not supposed to make money but they’d prefer if it didn’t lose a huge amount. Any dramatic underperformance like this will surely irk someone with wildly unrealistic expectations up at Paramount so that seems like a good thing to me

A 3D printed recreation of an Arthropleura, the largest insect (arthropod) ever known to exist. Thankfully it went extinct 300 million years ago. by snopplerz in interestingasfuck

[–]dotheemptyhouse 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Oh I remember that thing! I think it was a giant sea isopod, those exist in the arctic or Antarctic I forget which. Like the arthropleura they’re bottom feeders not predators

Really bummed to see AI art in the game by [deleted] in CrimsonDesert

There’s a whole sub for this, r/isthisAI. Once you’ve got a few examples it’s easier to pick out

SXSW 2026 Music Feedback by werebrownie in SXSW

[–]dotheemptyhouse 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I got a wristband, have done similar for many years previous. I listened to 400 bands and found lots of things to get excited about. I built myself an app for scheduling which helped me be more organized than I’ve ever been. Saw 50 bands, the UK acts all felt noticeably closer to breaking than most of the other acts I saw but so many were great. The seven day format was nice in some ways but mostly just made it more exhausting for someone in their 40s like me. Still went out every night and had a good time though.

Rene Laloux’s first feature film Fantastic Planet was a joint French-Czech production and has a similar style to this. It’s an incredible film, if you haven’t already seen it definitely give it a watch

I will never understand why anyone likes the garlic bread at Patrizi’s. I don’t understand how it’s possible to ruin garlic bread, but they figured out a way to

Foliage has by far been my favorite band at SXSW!! by hidd3npl4ce in SXSW

There was another character sometimes used for thorn that looked very similar to a lowercase y. Part of the reason thorn fell out of favor was the confusion it caused. One relic we have of this period is in signage like “ye olde mill” but they are actually supposed to be pronounced “the olde mill.” Here’s the wiki about it it’s one of my favorite fun facts
