    If Cindy is commenting on him liking something she considers childish, then Cindy is indeed a bitch.

    But if she’s commenting on his apparent expectation that it be free for men in their twenties as if he’s owed something, that I can kinda see her point.

    Would be nice if she made her point in a way in which her meaning could be clearly understood.








    1. The prices they charge for SSD upgrades is seriously laughably criminal. That said…
    2. You could choose to get a MacBook Pro, which starts at a higher storage tier. It’s still going to be more expensive than the air with the same size SSD, but you’ll get an inch larger screen and it is a seriously good screen.
    3. I’ve found after years of owning Linux and Mac laptops that I get years longer out of the Mac laptop, all things considered. They may be more up front, but dollars per year they come out ahead.
    4. MacOS is UNIX based, so you should feel right at home in terminal.
    5. Finally, take advantage of their education pricing. At least in the US, they don’t check for eligibility. So your $1399 1TB MacBook Air is now 1279. Feel a little bit better about that price?

    Bonus. The trackpad is head and shoulders above anything I’ve ever used. For me, that’s worth the price of admission alone.



  • Like the overall premise of the post asks, it just didn’t click. For people who love it, I don’t think they’re wrong. I generally like the humor, and the cast is great– like legitimately great. But it might be the medieval setting that I seldom find interesting, or the magical/mystical things that I never do.
