While I agree with this, what would would you use to refer to the relative performance of a hardware component?

Those are the ones I can think of now, but really Powerfull seems to be the best word to convey "good relative performance" in an adjective.

devices with ip addresses basically. "smart fridge", "smart light bulbs", "smart water bottle" "smart toilet", "smart double-ended dragon dildo"

hardware that never needed to be on a network suddenly going on a network with insecure firmware. so you can control your lights with your phone but ranjeev can steal your wifi password and install a bunch of botnet bullshit on your laptop because of it

Wager that if you actually filtered all that you'd only have 1 or 2 threads total left on all of /g/.

I don't see why you folks get your panties in such a bunch just because people are using silly words and shitpost a lot.

>Using "code" as a verb
It's called programming, you plebs. Code is what you write. You wouldn't food a burger; you would eat a burger.

Nothing spins. You're just trying to make it sound exciting to cover up the hollow sadness in your life. You might as well say you're going to "incinerate" a VM, for all the accuracy the word provides.

Yeah, that was perhaps the case in 2006.
