The Democrats and Hillary sure did talk a lot about the leaks at the time, but strangely never mentioned the contents of those leaks.

According to Newsweek, in response to the lawsuit the DNC contended that “the organization’s neutrality among Democratic campaigns during the primaries was merely a ‘political promise,’ and therefore it had no legal obligations to remain impartial throughout the process.”

SC Controller (the modernized fork) doesn't support anything other than Linux. On Windows, I have to run a super outdated version from 2020 that is missing support for newer controllers such as the DualSense.

AMDGPU Mesa drivers are just better than the proprietary AMD drivers. There is experimental support for RADV in Windows, but nothing like the support that is on Linux.

This is going to sound weird, but WINE sometimes has better support for legacy games/software than modern Windows does, and WINE is not available on Windows outside of something like WSL.

I would also say KDE apps like Dolphin, Konsole, and Kate, but those have Windows builds.

I doubt ICE would care if you showed them a US passport, let alone an ID

We need the corporate death penalty.

Or at least take 100% of their revenue (not profit) until they comply.

If it walks like a Nazi and talks like a Nazi, it's probably a Nazi.

That sounds really floppy.

I can in cases where you already bought the product. Fanboys are a thing for a reason.

"We never said that" - The White House, probably

My nickname in high school was "big chopstick"

What is this "soap water" you speak of? Is it a new magick spell?

The American right has been like this since at least the civil war with the Confederates, if not even further back, going back to the elitists during the founding of the country who "compromised" with the anti-elitists to have less democracy, like having the senate consist of two voting members per state, regardless of population, the electoral college, allowing slavery to exist, and no federal direct ballot initiatives.

Because the elites know best, right?

Hitler specifically took inspiration from the Confederacy for his Third Reich.

I've posted it a bunch lately but it really does feel like people hate all the pieces of capitalism without realizing they're all connected.

This is in large part due to Joe McCarthy, Ronald Reagan, and co. making the words "communist" and "socialist" socially unacceptable by kicking off the Red Scare in the 1950s. Can't critique capitalism in those days without being called a Commie and losing your job.

The only way to permenantly stop conservatism is to abolish capitalism. When you have a system where people are allowed to hold power over other people, those powerful people will work to gain more power by any means necessary.

1. Force all corporations to be worker owned coops, which will also have the effect of abolishing the stock market.
2. Tax all wealth above $50m at a rate of 100%, creating a hard wealth cap of $50m.
3. Provide all basic necessities to everyone free of charge paid for by tax dollars. Food, water, housing, sewage, trash, healthcare, etc. Anyone who wants to live in a situation beyond just the basic necessities can choose to work, but work should be a choice, especially with how advanced automation technologies are becoming.

There are also additional ideas like the ones in the solarpunk movement (library economy, focus on integration of nature with society, etc.) that are worth striving for.

Oh hes absolutely the relative evil mastermind of rhe group.

Stephen Miller

Oh, how I would love to see Peter Thiel sent to prison.

There will probably be a show/shows that are based on this about 20-40 years after Trump and Trumpism dies.

He won't be. Too rich and powerful.

There are lots of companies like that. EA, Nvidia, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Walmart, Amazon, HP, Sony, Microsoft.

I could go on.
