um okay sure 🙂

idk what biden had to do with this conversation about the trump hellscape but okay 😀

i mean it goes both ways. its an eternal hell but theres also so much shit happening that I lose count of what happened when

were already on day 500? We’re past the 30% mark?

that just feels insane. i feel like were still on day 20.

good luck mandating it when town halls full of locals screaming at their local level officials not to build a data center doesnt even work.

because a closed system is more expensive than an open one. We live in capitalism where maximizing profits is the name of the game.

They shouldnt be and the internet was better when it was a bunch of script kiddies writing HTML sites in their bedrooms on their own machines instead of the internet being owned by 5 companies.

one of them is awful for the ecosystem, pollutes our water supply and fresh air, and wastes millions of dollars on a volatile possibly dangerous technology

the other one is a pretty good source of energy.

bro doesnt know about graphene

eBay has pretty much the same shit but most of the sellers use USPS.

“Can an oppressor opress? Oppressor says “yes”, even if it risks oppression”

makes me want to try running some old XP games

I wouldn’t say all of that 30% thought that. There is a lot of purposeful and tactical decisions made by the GOP to prevent democratic votes. States where mail in and early voting are not allowed is an example, another is the polling places that do not allow you to give water to the people waiting in line. Then theres the ad campaigns that targeted black people saying of they voted they were going to be jailed by the IRS for some vague tax fraud reason. Some people are terrorized out of being able to vote.

Thats not to discount that there are definitely stupid privileged fucks who simply chose not to vote and let Trump happen.

I completely agree with what you’re saying here as someone in the US. To add onto it, a large majority of the problem is due to the complete lack of quality public education, and the option for private schooling / home schooling mostly revolving around Christo-Fascist propaganda and not actual facts. As someone who experienced the public school system, I had no idea MLK JR was a socialist. We were only told about the amazing effects of peaceful protests. The media we consume reenforces individualism, and not community. I’ve been trying to make an effort in my own life to try and be more involved with the community around me, and to participate in local politics, volunteer work, and helping your neighbors. I’m hoping there are others like me who are doing the same, and with any luck, the culture you’re describing will see a slow, painful death as people start realizing the harmfulness of this way of living.

not a fan of either party but i agree with this decision

Yeah were kinda fucked ATP for “good” smart TV stuff. You could DIY it with an old PC or raspberry pi but unless we see a push for it from a major player (Like Graphene partnering with Motorola) itll probably be like this for the foreseeable future.

Linux would just work ootb. No activation needed. Ergo; Linux is easier than Windows.

It’s poor form to say an apple tastes worse than an orange because its purely opinion. Theres no fact. I was trying to show the original reply is nonsensical, because for some, Android is harder than Linux. Android may not be what someone is used to.
