So I bought a gaming laptop a while back, and Cyberpunk 2077 binaries got leaked a few days ago... So I wanted to play it, kinda. It looks really good from the screenshots. Friend asks me "what CPU / GPU do you have"?

My gaming laptop is a Y700 so an i7-6700HQ and a GTX 960M. Turns out that even at low settings this thing probably won't pull even 30 FPS.

So even with a gaming laptop, you don't get to do any gaming. 10/10 would buy again! I'll enjoy Super Mario because imagine caring about gameplay rather than stunning graphics that you need tomorrow's hardware for, and buy it yesterday! And have it already obsolete today.

Long story short, I kinda hate the gaming scene. I'm not a gamer either by any means. Even this laptop just runs Linux and I bought it mostly because some of its hardware is better than my x220's. Are gamers expected to spring the money for the latest and greatest nugget every other month? When such a CPU and GPU alone would already cost most people's entire monthly wage?

What's the point of having a game that nobody can play? Even my friends' desktop hardware which is quite a bit better still - it only pulls 45 FPS according to him. Seriously, what's the point?

Button doesnt work? Make it unclickable :) and deliver it on freelancer xD

to me, japanese means unsophisticated. Idk whose idea all that weeb propaganda was, but:
- traditional japanese art: too simple, no sense of perspective, no sense of proportion. yes, even the great wave. look at any japanese painting pre-20th century, and then at any european renaissance-era painting. If you prefer the former, you're fucking blind
- when you eat, you sit on the floor like a caveman. you eat with two sticks. really? how hard was it to invent a fucking fork?
- traditional japanese furniture is trash. why all those complicated joints that look horribly after one year of use, especially if it's outdoors? don't you have nails or screws?
- sashimi is just uncooked sliced fish.
- cars are ugly and too basic. modern ones are unreliable too. the only way to make a gas car reliable is to overbuild it. volvo red blocks were indestructible because they operated at 8-12% of their horsepower limit compared to mechanical strength. take any engine, cut its horsepowers to one tenth of what it's capable of, and you'll get a reliable engine. it doesn't take any engineering talent. yes, there are foot guns, but if you're not doing crazy shit, you belong in this framework.
- no good software
- ugly, horror vacui websites and interfaces
- everything is so fucking crude
- nintendo is the same old mario crap repackaged again and again
- anime is the same basic plot again and again, just slop at this point.
- same with all gacha games
- it's all either cartoonish or borderline porn, with few exceptions
- no good porcelain (that's china and france, then soviet union)

weebs will say that it's okay, it's minimalism, and that I just don't get it.

if you want to sell something to weebs, take anything, make it 10x the price, and say that it came from japan, and every shortcoming is intentional. boom, done.

post-ww2 japan is a US colony that exists because of US money. The day US money is gone, japan will become china.

you need engineering, you go to germany. you need sophistication, you go to france. you need affordability and scale, you go to china.

japanese pm was assassinated in 2022 with a homemade pipe gun like it's 19th century or something. japanese minister in charge of IT doesn't know what a flash drive is and doesn't use a computer. Also, name a country with $54k+ GDP per capita that has so big of a problem with work culture that "death because of working too much" is a separate short word, that's how often it's used?
