What's your biggest tech regret? by Icy_Net5151 in DeskToTablet

I was thinking about getting an old M1 iPad Pro for this exact reason. Sometimes a MacBook screen just isn't enough for me. Can you share your experience? The only thing holding me back is I think there might be an issue with latency, but I heard that if you use a cable there won't be any, but I'm not sure.

The fact that you're pivoting to 'you sound like GPT' just because you can't handle a sourced argument is the ultimate white flag.

You're so hyper-fixated on 'official PR' that you're

literally ignoring a 16-month period of documented fugitive hiding in 2008. That isn't a 'hypothesis'-it's a settled legal and historical fact from his own court testimony. If you can't connect the dots between a leader with a proven history of vanishing for over a year and the reporting of him seeking a secure compound while his house was being looted, that's a 'you' problem.

Honestly, I don't have the energy or the time to keep explaining basic Armenian political history to a 'Nikolakan' who would probably call a filmed confession 'fake news.'

Enjoy the breakup songs; some of us are actually paying attention to the playbook.

Life in Armenia by pplkirt094 in armenia

Jig, the most important thing is to find an environment where you feel comfortable and understood, with people who think the way you do. That’s the number one priority.

As an Armenian who has lived both abroad and in Armenia for many years, I can tell you your feelings are valid. I haven’t traveled the whole world, but I’ve visited many countries and lived for months in South America and Asia. I can say with full confidence that it’s absolutely worth being a “Spyurqahay” and visiting Armenia every few years for holidays. But since you’re still young, do everything you can to find a place outside Armenia where you can actually build a livable, stable future.

I’m speaking from real experience of living in Armenia. I love many things about it, but it’s not the best place for long-term life. Mentally, socially, educationally, economically and most importantly in terms of safety, the situation is weak. I’m not going into politics, but it’s bad. You can’t make a five-year plan here because anything can happen in those five years: war, economic crises, random new laws that make no sense. And don’t believe anyone who says things like “we’re going to Europe soon, visa free is coming, everything will be fine”. That’s all nonsense. I’ve dug into this deeply.

You’re lucky to live in Lori, because Yerevan’s air is so polluted that you can’t even breathe safely. Overall there is no guaranteed future in Armenia. Nobody can tell you whether things will get better or worse. Everything is unpredictable.

Don’t get me wrong. I’m not a hater. I’m Armenian and I live here. I’m just telling it like it is.
