they are too busy having sex to think about the intricacies of consumerist behavior and saving money or whatever

thinkpads are just better

a few might be busy having sex. i've seen one cutie prance around today, bathing in male attention and her hips were shaking so wide while walking that i was surprised she even moved forwards and not just side to side. but most are tricked into this idea that a better life waits for them in the future and they need to be strict and concentrated to reach it. my guess is there is not as much sex going on in reality as in your imagination.

so for them there is no excuse not to think about the intricacies because consumer culture surrounds you. it would be odd to consider yourself an intellectual and never wonder about it.

i chuckle at you using the term "save money" because it is built on top of layers of illusion. this makes me wonder if you "save money" in one area of your life to spend more in another area of your life, which is rather utility maximizing behavior. if you only need 10% of the money to pay for something, why would you not just work something that pays 90% less and have a better life because that job would be less cruel, inhumane and disgusting? if the stuff you buy costs less, then you don't have to prostitute yourself on the jobmarket as hard.

i guess you have too much sex to think that far.

what's the downside? what is it that the thinkpad can't do that the 1500€ instagram machine can do? being a status symbol? but i don't even believe my worth is tied to material objects. i get when someone who is a believer in status symbols wants expensive things to show off and impress others, but what about everyone else?

well, you can't be an intellectual and know EVERYTHING. you will whether you want it or not specialize and focus on different parts of life
you can't expect everyone to sink as much time as you do on your computer hobbies and feeling superior over this is silly. that was kinda the point of my post. most people just need a working nice looking shitbox at the end of the day and nobody except /g/ autistics cares about how optimized their choice of a laptop is.

so you're an expert on what is possible, oh how lucky i am to be in your presence wise one.

i did spend a lot of time on it recently but that is only because i met cool people who studied programming and they helped me just with a few details and i am upgrading technology in my life. they were helpful and i found out a lot myself and instantly found ways to help the people around me. this was beautiful community action, it was not a "sink of time" it was me living my best life plus uplifting others along the way.

>and feeling superior over this is silly.

so finding better ways of doing things, that's bad and you don't want that? go it. very important detail about your identity on an anonymous imageboard; important character building right there! no nonsense person detected, better nobody try anything funny around you or they gonna get it!

>that was kinda the point of my post.

if you say so 🙄.

>most people just need a working nice looking shitbox at the end of the day and nobody except /g/ autistics cares about how optimized their choice of a laptop is.

most people just need a nice looking knife to cut their apples at the end of the day, who cares if it is sharp, only people who actually work care about a tool that helps get the job done because normal people are busy having sex.
