- Comment on YSK a US passport card costs $30 and is definitive proof of citizenship. It fits in your wallet like a credit card. 2 days ago:
How in the world did you draw that conclusion? I’m merely pointing out that they’re discriminating on skin color alone, but that wasn’t an advocacy against a passport card.

- Comment on Transcribed text of Samantha Fulnecky's assignment, paper, and professor's comments 3 weeks ago:
He rhetoric aside, the paper reads like it was written at the middle school level. The entence structure is terrible, ideas are not exactly the most coherent, and the bulk of the thought process flows like a squirrel having an anuerism. Like yeah, have your opinions, but present them in a way that at least fakes a college-level analysis, not something that you’d post on your Facebook wall.

Likely moreso that they’re facing pressure from other competitors in the industry that see Steam and open source in general as a threat to their business model. The HDMI forum is made up of industry leaders, and naturally Microsoft and Sony are there.

We need utilities run at cost by a nonprofit entity, whether that’s the state or some other managing group. Profits should absolutely not be extracted on necessities like energy.

It’s a devised method of trading value for other things of value. It used to be pretty rocks, then precious metals, then pieces of paper, and now it’s bits on computers. As Drew Carey once said, the everything is made up and the points don’t matter anyway. Except when those points are the difference between having a heated home or freezing your ass off in a cardboard box behind a Safeway.

I mean, in today’s climate, how could you not expect to have a device analyzing your poopie and selling that information to advertisers? Just about anything that is software enabled and has an app is primarily used for data harvesting, especially if you’re not paying a subscription.

Not even that, contact the respective state DOJ and have them but you on the restricted list.

- Comment on It's mind blowing how MAGAs like Charlie Kirk are doing more to spread leftist ideology than actual leftists, that's why they killed and not a socialist or a communist. 2 months ago:
I’ve always heard it as the social contrct, but yeah, it’s getting quite close to becoming void. Probably why this admin is ramping up domestic military operations and moving their leadership onto military bases.

I’ve maintained this for a while now: as fucked up and as much of a piece of shit as Trump is, he’s very good at making readily apparent just how screwed up the entire system in the US is across the board and showing even the dumbest among us just how badly we need to change things. Yes his rabid moron followers think the status quo is a good thing because reasons, but the average layman is finally thinking about our country in a new light.

And right now everyone is shocked, shocked I tell you, that their private for-profit “healthcare” is due to explode in cost, because “tax credits” are expiring, and definitely because greedy assholes want more money under an economic system run by a conman. Darndest thing.

I liken it to hiring a plumber/electrician/carpenter vs figuring it out myself. Instead of using a website on someone else’s computer, I use websites on my own computer.
