  • It would halve it or worse. ASUS makes a few models with built in internal batteries which work quite well.

    The type that latch onto your existing laptop display are really not great. They put a huge amount of extra force on the hinge where tons of sensitive ribbon cables live and you are severely limited in viewing angle. Not to mention you can’t move the monitor around in a tight work space or disconnect it easily to hit the field.

    A standalone portable monitor is the best solution IMO. The nicer models come with adjustable stands, protective travel cases, and USB-C DP pass through functionality.















  • Much like 2008, the pandemic never actually ended. When schools reopened, every classroom in the nation was full of children on their 4th, 5th, 6th infection in a month. Thousands of people still drop dead from it every month and the US is, to this day, still experiencing 30% more per capita deaths than pre-pandemic.

    Long COVID is proven to cause permanent organ damage, including brain function. We won’t know what it does to child development until decades from now but it’s already proven to increase risk-taking and reduce higher level function in adults.

    The accumulation of capital continues.



  • I stopped reading when they said Glocks are dangerous because of their rigorously tested and proven safety features that guarantee the weapon will not fire unless the trigger is pulled.

    What a load of liberal crockery man, y’all need to visit the rough parts of town more.

    Guns should fire if the trigger is pulled and a bullet is in the chamber. Full stop.

    Don’t want to shoot? Don’t pull the trigger. Follow the three rules plus have a good holster, Christ I can’t even imagine having three layers of safeties to go through before my own gun will let me shoot. Sounds like they went out of business for a reason.

    I know there’s no left in the US remaining to push for gun rights but that was just an incredible post.
