  • Well, really it's for any country that would allow MS to intrude into your PC experience as they do in the US.

  • IF YOU'RE NOT IN THE EU, you can use O&O ShutUp to help you turn off the more intrusive aspects of Windows with ease.

  • Stories like this are why I can't help but laugh a little whenever I see a thread about Ukraine or something and it's filled with a few hundred people who honestly think we're the good guys in the world. This headline should be impossible, but it's not.

    Here in the US it's legal, and likely constitutional, since our Constitution allows for the legal enslavement of people convicted of a crime.

  • Nah, we'll probably be hearing the inside scoop when they leak it to their mistresses on Signal.

  • I have every confidence that Donald and his exceptionally-professional administration will come to a reasonable nuclear deal with Iran.

    /s

  • Sounds like this person wasn't a trophy-hunting motherfucker like Donald Jr. or Eric or the fat fuck from Jimmy Johns. (And therefore, in my book, a genuine tragedy.)

    Still, when nature can't feed itself (and the article states food is depleted due to drought) animals can and will attack humans. This was the risk he took.

  • The national news media got behind it big, which I really don't understand.

    It never made any sense.

  • Very true. The last straw for me was the incident where he carried a sink around the Twitter offices. Immediately nuked my Twitter and switched to Mastodon afterward.

  • Someone please remember to tell them that WE WANT FAST TRAVEL. The lack of it in the SW: Jedi games is so aggravating.

  • Always love it when people double-down on a myopic, uninformed, and ignorant point of view. Thank you for sharing.

  • That's what I love about my fellow Americans: the willingness to unironically cheer poverty, authoritarianism, and fascism as long as the machinery of government appears to be directed at your perceived enemies.

  • That, as they say, is a choice.

  • Thank you for the vigorous discussion. I hope you have pleasant afternoon.

  • Respectfully, you can try to gaslight me or cast aspersions, but my eyes actually function. Thank you.

  • Much like the Democrats who told poor people that they should, you know, just be joyful about it.

    Then again, to take responsibility would require some introspection.

  • No, it's not.

    It's the fault of the Democrats, who had an abundance of information about the unpopularity of Biden and his presidency, and then made a series of awful decisions about the presidential campaign, not the least of which being nominating a weak candidate who prioritized Biden's ego over appealing to voters.

    You also cannot tell voters who've been getting poorer while you've ruled that you won't change anything, and definitely shouldn't tell them to be joyful about it.

  • It's honestly a little poetic in a way, given how the that's how Walmart's treated its workers for generations. (ie, Walmart subsidizing their profits by paying workers so little they have to seek the social safety net.)

  • I think it’s rude to ask someone why they’re not married

    Same, but with boomers it was a much more normalized conversation, so I understand why it still happens from time to time. I was much more graphic in my answer when it was my parents bugging me, in part as an equal and opposite reaction to their rudeness: ::: spoiler spoiler "Mom/Dad, I wasn't born to be married. I was born to spread joy, and I do so with my penis." :::
