I don’t.
And I think the real point is we can’t let them. Because we’re all very reactive but not so much proactive.

Don’t care. Gone.


Silence! No questions! You will be assimilated!


Tbf, I haven’t touched a Mac in ages (and never personally owned one in my life), because the combination of the “luxury™” device tax and Apple’s vindictive anti-repair stance (and their walled garden on principle but that’s not relevant here) basically put them on my “never buy and never recommend” list.
All good points. So here’s what ya do - slide on over to your favorite used gear hub and pick up a 10 year old 8GB model for like $50 or $100. These things sold for thousands back in the day but now they’re just beautiful old advanced-for-the-time hardware (that often run linux super easy if you get bored).
A little research will keep you to the ones that can be upgraded easily.
Grok all the rounded edges and backlit island glass-touchpad beautifulness. Wonder at how they got a good sound from tiny speakers in 1847 or whatever. Enjoy kicking around the candy colored icons and see how the configurations are just two clicks to wherever you want to be. It’s like a vacation from scrolling through a textfile. Or, get jiggy with the BSD and go nuts. Get a free apple ID and smile guiltily when all your other cheap rescues line up behind it and interact seamlessly.
Just don’t use your real name, keep behind your favorite recipe of networking, etc., obvs. And you might decide it’s a good thing.


Unlike the federal workers who have one IT person per 200 people, they have 200 IT people for one person.


God it was all so obvious to my little gang. UN finding nothing, Cheney using a puppet for “leaked intel”, Gee Dubz SOTU - hey, kids you gotta go look this up, it’s classic: they wanted to plant this bullshit story that Iraq was out in their garage making “dirty bombs” with c4 and something radioactive. So they discover / make up some shit about them buying “yellowcake” uranium.
Then Bush the Dumber gets up in the house (this was before people just started screaming to interrupt them) and he goes “we have discovered that Iraqi agents were working to buy yellowcake uranium . . . from Africa”.
And the little pause he gave it and the ridiculous way he said “from Africa” couldn’t have been a louder dogwhistle. It was fucking tragic all the way down from SCOTUS stealing the election to them lying 24/7 and blowing trillions to invade Iraq for - ? Reason? S? Probably just stuffing themselves with glorious tax free freedom cash.
Yep. The Worst President in Americ- . . . aaghhhh goddammit.


Just for the kids here, the lies for Iraq were known WAY before the actual war. We all knew it was complete bullshit and it was a roling clusterfuck of chickenhawk republicans, terror-terror-terror media, and ridiculously inept Democrats.
So. Everything’s different now.


Yeah that almost never happens. Besides they’re covered by the comprehensive protection of CrowdStrike. And Microsoft.


Well . . That’s . . . good?
Wait.


Other news we’re following:
- Trump dismisses 2018 killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi: The U.S. president gave a warm welcome to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salmanof Saudi Arabia, his first visit since the Washington Post reporter was killed by Saudi agents. When the crown prince was asked about Khashoggi, Trump interjected, saying, “Things happen.”
Jesus fucking Chr- *deep breath*


Redacted. Yeah. Bondi will bookend it with “no collusion” so all the MAGA troglodytes can chatter how innocent the demented rapist fraud is.


Stop being a divisive wrecker and forcing your purity tests on leftists.
Oh that is rich
Either fall in line or go away, this is a critical time and we cannot have you righties around trying to wreck our momentum
No YOU righties stop trying to wreck our momentum because you’re okay with not having a single national presence to point to and perfect is just fine being the enemy of the good.
Feel free to address the hypocrisy I called out w/r/t the article or - as i fully expect - don’t.


Just because you’re paranoid, don’t mean they’re not after you


Oh . . Lemmy’s down. Ah, no problem.

Gonna go with a Harry Mudd - Vulcan mashup.


Of course known maintenance windows are the perfect time for the ol’ cyberattackeroo.


Yeah let’s hear all about how Mamdani exists to be controlled opposition, and how his choices are so fucking questionable lately, and how he’s only driving mainstream liberals back to the Democratic party.
C’mon Tankiejerks. If you trash AOC but can’t find the courage to also trash Mamdani, you’re worthless. So let’s hear it. He’s sold out! In two weeks! Booooourgeois!
No? Crickets as usual from the refuseniks? How odd.
Seriously the more shit i see in here the more I wonder how wrong a strategy it is to tack to the center. The so-called-left can’t win a goddamned participation trophy ffs. We have to put a stake in MAGAs heart in less than a year and this kind of garbage only puts us further away from that.
At least RTFA. The ragebait trap caught a bunch of people.
Linux Phone take me away!
