I’ve definitely had to do that with Windows so is it not ready?

To be fair if you take a flagship Android that cost similarly to what the pro iPhone cost the iPhone resell value is still usually way higher as the years go on even though the initial prices were the same.

But does it really matter?

Of course not. I’m not saying nobody died or nothing happened… I’m just specifically disputing this claim I’ve heard that they ran over a large number of people and “washed them down the drain”. There’s a few photos such as your link that show an isolated person or two who had been run over, but nothing to the extent of the claims that they had “mashed” hundreds or thousands and “washed” them away.

There’s a lot to say about the protests then but honestly I have seen zero convincing evidence that tanks were used in this way. (Specifically, to “mash” a number of people into “paste” to later be “washed down the drain”.)

Seems like an ahistorical lie pushed by propaganda, which would weaken any legitimate criticism you might have. Better to be accurate. But I’m open to any sources you might have.

The one message that basically said that his source heard from a good friend this happened?

Okay rewrite this comment in the style of the Stallman copypasta

They’ve designed the system intentionally this way, to keep people dependant on them.

Passkeys aren’t so bad. Just switch to a password manager that stores them for you, preferably a self-hosted one if you’re technically inclined.

You generally need to do a background check at a store

But random dude online selling a used one? Nothing. No paperwork. Just give money, get gun. Don’t even need a record of it.

Neither federal law nor Texas law requires private sellers to keep a record when they sell a firearm.

I use my own first@last.com (well actually it’s last-net.com because I couldn’t secure any better domain. It’s too common.)

Never had an issue.

Looking into the full logs he was banned for a uh, pedo comment in another post. They may have been joking but it was still gross.

No. This is exactly what capitalism does. Make no excuse for it.

There is no “better” capitalism. The whole point of capitalism is unlimited, unchecked growth. Even if you contain it for a time and it’s not so bad, it will work slowly (at first) to erode all safeguards. It will always become this.

horribly unstable

I think that’s unfair. Despite the meme once you get it going it’s pretty stable.

finicky and time-consuming

At first. But then once you’re setup you can coast on years of just doing updates on my experience.

I’m not suggesting anyone who isn’t excited to pick and configure all the packages on your system try it, to be clear.

Shinzo Abe seems like it turned out well tbh

I feel like most Midwestern Americans believe this unironically

Unlike the tanks the cybertruck would run him over

They could be moved and made to face each other

They absolutely are/were

Depends on what clique you were in and also the drama is way less interesting than every hormone-doped teen thought it really was
