- Comment on Across the US, people are dismantling and destroying Flock surveillance cameras. Anger over ICE connections and privacy violations is fueling the sabotage. 1 day ago:
Because that would be illegal, and advice easy-to-acess ways to sabotage fascism should not be shared anywhere.

- Comment on I mean why not? 1 week ago:
The real late-stage-capitalism problem: suicide is the ecconomic way to go out than have your estate end in bankruptcy because healthcare is just so damn expensive and insurance is insensitived to deny coverage.
- Comment on Elon Musk's xAI loses second cofounder in 48 hours 1 week ago:
So there’s a second person who doesn’t want to attach their name to a machine that generates child porn? Good on the guy who left.

I wonder what her estate is doing.
- Comment on I mean why not? 1 week ago:
With the big money controlling everything, it’d be a cheaper way to go out than bankrupting your estate with a hospital bill and denial of care from insurance.

Right. The Weimar Republic had their population making substantially more cash than at any point.
- Comment on Europe’s $24 Trillion Breakup With Visa and Mastercard Has Begun 1 week ago:
Right? The ecconomic benefits, the lack of financial catastrophy from suffering a paper cut, living wages, the political stability. It must be like waking up every day in a dream.

- Comment on The AI boom is so huge it’s causing shortages everywhere else The $700 billion AI spending spree has few precedents. Good luck finding an electrician or a reasonably priced smartphone. 2 weeks ago:
Exactly. Without immigration, our population would collapse. Our birthrate is 1.64 per woman. Japan’s is 1.2. The replacement rate is 2. It’s just too damn expensive to have kids, put a roof over our heads, and retire. Meanwhile the fed just funnels more money to the rich. No wonder the workers can’t maintain the population: we’re starving and the government is giving all the food to the rich.

Imagine how improved things would be if that $700 billion was spent improving the lives of regular people. Or, what if it was just used to pay the debt through taxes? Medicare for all? They clearly had the money to sqander.

Well, it does take hands to raise the guillotine’s blade . . . true. Might also take hands to lock billionaires into the guillotine. So, thanks for the suggestion!
- Comment on Rent is theft 2 weeks ago:
Rent is theft? I thought rent empowered people. How is it theft for a car rental company to rent you a car at at an airport? How is it theft for uhaul to rent you extra storage space when you need it?

- Comment on YSK that a general strike is one of the most effective ways to push for change. There is a general strike in the works across the US for this Friday. 3 weeks ago:
Don’t get me wrong, it’s a Pretti Good idea/start. But, there needs to be more, like a definded list of demands. Otherwise, it’s just an ignorable protest.

Yeah, not going to be effective. Make it a week, and you might turn some heads.
- Comment on TikTok uninstalls are up 150% following U.S. joint venture 3 weeks ago:
Nope. Your math is wrong. 6 people uninstalling would be a 50% increase from the 4 since 2 (the extra people uninstalling is 50% of 4). For a 150% INCREASE you’d need 10 to uninstall (4 for the origional, 4 more for the 100%, and 2 on top of that for the extra 50%).

- Comment on Copilot could soon live inside Windows 11's File Explorer, as Microsoft tests Chat with Copilot in Explorer, not just in a separate app 5 weeks ago:
I’ve been considering switching to Linux, but there’s things that I’d want to know first. Like, does it have the Windows GUI? Is the file architecture the same (Documents, Program Files, etc.)? Can I migrate my files over through One Drive? Can I use my Word/Excel 2024 there?
