This is why the right to repair is so important… So we can add thing to stuff, so we don’t have to buy new stuff.
“Stuff 3: now with 100% proprietary parts”
*not available in the European Union.
*not available outside of the US
*available without stuff outside the EU
We might still buy new stuff, because adding things to existing can be expensive (in terms time and effort). I just spent hours (and I’m not done) looking for PC parts to utilize my old CPU in a home server. If I didn’t have very specific hardware requirements I’d just chuck it in the bin and buy a pre-built mini PC. And for most people I’d imagine that’s the case. People don’t want to tinker, they just want things to work. Right to repair is very much right to tinker. It suits people like me, but it’s not going to matter to people like my wife, who would much rather buy a new laptop than make the current one not work at a snails pace.
Don’t get me wrong, right to repair is important and I 100% support it, but my point is that it’s only important to us. The average Joe will never care and will much rather buy a new thing than make the existing one like the new one.
It’s supposed to also help the average person by letting repair shops actually be able to repair older devices so you don’t end up being forced to buy a new device because the company says it will cost more to repair it then to just buy a new one as a way to force you to pay more to buy something new.
It’s my hole! It was made for me!
I’ve never seen the DDR one and I LOVE IT
amiga fault never made sense to me… it was low-effort body horror and I’m not sure why 4chan venerated it. like why are people drawn to the holes? who cares who it was made for lol. and who made them? it’s stretched too thin to expect readers to feel involved in the horror AND continue with unanswered questions about the premise
Ito often works like Lovecraft, being drawn to something irrational you cannot understand is the whole point. It’s also heavily utilized in Uzumaki. The body horror is just the cherry on top.
The sensation is quite common for a lot of people, think of “l’appel du vide” (call of the void) or intrusive thoughts in general.
it’s stretched too thin
just like the characters in the end
… Damn it
You just haven’t met your hole yet.
amigara fault fucked me up because read it senior year of high school while dreading going to college because i knew i had to in order to fit in in society even though i didn’t really want to
college was the hole and i was not made for it 💀
(i did finally graduate after 7 fucking years at least. but i do feel very mangled.)
Our generation got shoveled into college by victims of propaganda who didn’t realize until far too late that it was a debt industry. I’m sorry you had to go through it.
The little doodad reminds me of the object in the “I made this” comic
Every time I see something like this it reminds me of the short film More by Mark Osborne.
OTOH I couldn’t get myself to buy anything that’s not at the lowest price ever after I have found out about price history tracking sites
Stuff v3, now with ai
I’ve gotta start thinking green… I don’t have a GREEN one of those!
This is me frfr
