This isn’t just kbin, that’s kinda the whole point. A name based on kbin is short-sighted, because kbin is only one small piece of this thing.

Instead of instantly doing the same shit we did on reddit 15 years ago, why don’t we do things differently this time? We don’t have to call kbin users anything. In any case, please god not “keebinetter.”

It makes no sense. Without context, I would have no idea that “keebinetter” is supposed to mean “user of kbin.” What’s wrong with established naming conventions? And who reads “kbin” as “keebin”?

A name based on kbin doesn’t make sense anyway, the whole idea is that this isn’t just kbin.

Couldn’t agree more, old chap!

It’s extremely common for people to go on forums/subs and claim they cannot build a PC. In the overwhelming majority of those cases, there is no reason the person couldn’t build a PC on their own. Usually they’ve just decided for whatever reason that it’s beyond them, which is ridiculous.

I don’t know your situation, just pointing out that that particular scenario is extremely common in PC-building forums.

Nah I had no idea, thanks for educating me ಠ_ಠ

Yes, I am aware that PC parts are expensive. I am also aware that anyone with functional hands and eyes is physically capable of assembling those PC parts into a working computer. I know these things because I’ve built PCs before. It really is just as simple as we keep saying it is lol

I’ve never really agreed with the Lego comparison, it’s…not like Lego at all.

Here’s another perspective though, I trust myself a hell of a lot more than I trust shipping companies. If my main concern is protecting my investment, those parts have a much better chance of reaching me intact if they are each in their individual packaging.

Not with those mods we don’t lol

A continuously variable transmission (CVT) is an automatic transmission

That is not what they said and you know it, don’t be obtuse.

Of course the CEO of the company gets more freedom than you, a user. Guess what, if you’re in my house you have less freedom than I do. I can do whatever the fuck I want, because it’s my house. You do not get to do whatever you want in my house, because it’s my house. Bold take, I know.

Then I guess it’s a good thing I didn’t say EVs have CVTs then, isn’t it?

Don’t argue with something I didn’t even say, homie. I was pointing out that a CVT is in fact a type of automatic transmission, nothing more.
