  • Love the meme, but also, let's not pretend that Joe Rogan isn't just a propagandandistic shill. If he were all of a sudden making such claims on his show, it might be different. Haven't seen it.

  • Refunded. Would have been a mediocre game 10-15 years ago. What a dead world.

  • Specifically multiplayer games which require kernel-level anti-cheat. It's an extreme minority of multiplayer games.

    Kernel-level anti-cheat is a privacy and security nightmare on Windows, too.

  • And I'm sure those at CPAC will just start calling them Freedom Fries again and completely ignore that they're at a Nazi rally.

  • Too little, too late.

    I'll believe in an intelligent Republican when they stop voting against their own interests.

  • 85% of all counties in America

    Empty land doesn't vote, you moron. You can be 2000 counties up and only win by a couple million votes, because rural counties are... rural.

  • How does he have the time for all this if CEOs are always as busy as he claims?

  • This approach was planned. When it was continuously pointed out, these are the same people that kept their MAGA hats on and stayed obsessed with "taking the country back".

    You can't fix stupid, and now the world has to suffer for it.

  • Annoy potential readers with this one trick!

  • True, though such services are in the extreme minority at this point.

  • This. There is no practical reason to separate privacy and security in this way.

    If bad actors can access your data without your consent, it doesn't matter if you call it a breach of privacy or security. It's still a breach. At best, playing semantics like this allows a corp to claim a system filled with backdoors is "secure". Utter marketing nonsense.

  • Older ones are extremely repairable, in my experience (T-440ish and older), but it does go downhill from there.

  • More so than the commonly called "artificial intelligence", in fact.

    People can be really, really dumb, but they're always sentient.

  • Even after years and years of this being discussed, it shocks me how many people keep dropping money into services which force them to own nothing.

    Convenience is a helluva drug.

  • This is why you don't radicalize people. The less Trumpy members of the GOP had ample opportunity to speak up and make a change.

    In the short term, you get a dedicated, cult-like following. In the longer term, nothing functions -- even the stuff you want to function. Deradicalization takes a lot of time and resources, if you can even get that far.

    I sincerely wonder what happens when Trump no longer exists. He is no spring chicken. Are all of these shortsighted politicians just going to bow to Don Jr. when the time comes? Because that's what they have set themselves up for by being either stupid or spineless.

  • Really looking forward to job market numbers. I know the Republicans are spin masters, but it's going to be a pretty hard spin when the market is shit because they've fired so many federal workers. It's working against the American people right in front of them.

    His supporters won't care, I know. That's how cults work.

  • It was definitely failing under Liz Truss. Then things got better when she fucked off.

  • The cool thing is, you can affect these people directly.

    Don't use Meta products.

    Don't use X.

    Don't buy a Tesla.

    Don't get Starlink.

    SpaceX is a conundrum since they aren't really selling things directly to consumers, but still, for the most part here, people can vote with their wallets and their time. (Sadly they won't, but they can).
