Oh, cool! I thought Haiku had stalled out. I guess I was wrong.

So they can shoot you in the back as you're running away. got it.

The current tobacco companies are no longer any more evil than any other business is my point. It's a bad comparison for a modern day Social Media company, especially since so little of the population today was around for when Tobacco companies were at their worst.

The evil tobacco company is an outdated narrative. They were already regulated to hell 22 years ago when I started smoking and since then I've only ever seen the regulations increase now with the new apparent goal of outlawing nicotine. I can only speculate that people think this time we're going to get prohibition right.

btw I quit smoking 7 years ago, and nicotine altogether 5 years ago.

It's hard to remember but it was some version of Mandrake probably in the early 2000's. At the time, they were one of the only distros (along with Red Hat) to offer an installation GUI. As a first time user I found partitioning a hard drive too complex to do on the command line.

I only used Mandrake for a short time before reverting to windows but it wasn't long after that when I came back and then started using Debian. Since then I went back to Windows then to OpenSuSe, then Debian, Kubuntu, Ubuntu, and now Pop!_OS.

I’m pretty sure Homeland Security was created with the sole intent of subverting the constitution from it's inception.

This happens when you weaponize homelessness & poverty.

Please don't. Way too many people go to Yellowstone National Park to try that every. single. day. The bison tolerate a lot before they typically snap. No need to encourage more fools. They are not in short supply.

I've got $5 that says she just misplaced it.

I don't. I say either.

Wow. You about summed up my experience but in the late 90's, early 00's. Good work!

-The article says the suspects full name is "Owen McIntire" being the only hint to suspect gender.

is IBM handling the hardware side of it?

You hear that Elon? No, excuse you shit bag!

I used to work as a bartender and we kept a pump bottle of hand sanitizer on the sink just in case we were so busy that a 20-second hand wash wasn't reasonable. -We used thermal paper almost exclusively and I know for a fact that I occasionally had alcohol-laden hands when I was handling that thermal paper.

If you are non-white in the US, you should be carrying around a replica grenade when you leave the house, and if they gestapo try to grab you can try to bluff your way back to safety.

I’m only joking a little.

I'm pretty sure people have a theoretical right to protect themselves from illegal kidnappings regardless of who's doing the illegal kidnapping. Either way, I don't think a stance on protecting one's self from kidnapping is that edgy or controversial of a stance as your comment seems to imply it is.
