So true. I have the barely functioning laptop but the rest I'm woefully short on. Not sure how I'll convince my wife to allow me to get a bisexual gf either but the smg comes first anyway.

In the case of a preexisting monogamous relationship, an additional AI gf works too.

Shout-out to all the bisexual girlfriends! I love my bisexual girlfriend ❤️

Truth bomb, your bisexual girlfriend may cheat on you with either a man or a woman. A straight girlfriend will only cheat on you with a guy.

"I have no reason to cheat on you, I already found the best person for me!" - actual quote from my gf

Or they could be a trustworthy individual who wouldn't engage in anything their partner would consider cheating.

Four-year-old MS Surface Go, they dont build shit to last anymore. I'll see if I can get Linux Mint or some such if it gets much worse.

Try xfce or mate as a desktop environment. Both should be performant. Didn't have luck with cinnamon DE, and it lagged/crashed even with great hardware.

And call it the Chicago Typewriter

Listen, my grandpa sold Thompsons, I hate to slander that gun, but it was heavy as fuck and very expensive. There's a reason the British replaced it with the Sten and the Americans dropped it for the grease gun.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

The later revisions of the Thompson were simpler to manufacture and cost around a third as much as the originals. Your points are still all correct but I think it's interesting to point that out.

Browning M2 please. It's technically a sub machine gun because there are both guns and machines that are larger than it is and I would like one, thank you.
