To use a topical example, look at Digg. Digg "died" a long time ago. Despite this, you can go browse digg.com right now.

Reddit is not going anywhere any time soon, and Huffman is still going to be a prick next week.

Everyone's trying to kill reddit, but that isn't something we have the power to do. There is no offensive action we can take that will bring reddit down. I wish that idea would dissipate already.

What we can do, the only thing we can do, the sole action that is within our power, is to do nothing. Walk away, close that chapter, allow reddit to fade. As we have seen time and time again, reddit is perfectly capable of killing reddit; we have only to step back and watch it happen...

...without actually giving them traffic, of course.

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.

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.

A continuously variable transmission (CVT) is an automatic transmission

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.

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

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.
