I've always thought it was completely rediculous that airlines charge a premium to board the plane sooner, like yea sure you wanna spend extra money to be on the cramped plane for a LONGER period of time? lol. Edit: I read some of the other comments mentioning getting dibs on overhead space and yea, if you're carrying on you bags that would make sense.

The 5th of November...oh shit that was yesterday.

Are we in the V for vendetta timeline now?

Well, I'm a cishet white male and I still didn't like living in Texas. I had to drive like 3-4 hours to get anywhere and back home, its hot, no winter for the most part(and when there was, any plans I had that involved leaving the house had to be canceled), power grid is shit and has way too many rolling blackouts. Internet service was abysmal, hot trash. The MAX speed I could get was like 10Mbps down. And then there's the political climate... Yea fuck that I'm never moving back.

Welcome new lemmy users!

We don't, enough of the US is gerrymandered as fuck and we use first past the post voting so most of us are voting to get a plurality for the guy other than the one we hate more, and that's if your even interested in politics here. The whole system is fucked and corrupt.

Edit: oh yea and the electoral college fucks us too.

And this is why I always use a VPN on my phone.

Lmao what? EGL uses unreal?

That would be an improvement actually, because the customers of these companies are not users, they are other companies looking to advertise or buy users personal data. The users of for profit social media are in fact the product, not the customers.

As an audio engineer I can confirm that shielding is more important in a cable than whether or not it has gold plated connectors. Gold plated connectors don't really do much unless the connectors are worn down and don't make good contact in the first place, shielding actually does something for signal to noise ratio, especially for unbalanced and/or mic level(low level signal) and/or long cables. This is really only applicable for analog stuff for the most part of course.
