If only it were that easy. A conversation with one of them would go something more like this:

“It’s not Trump.”

“Okay, prove it!”

“I don’t need to because THIS IS AMERICA, and it’s INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY.”

“Like the people arrested by ICE?”

“THEY WERE CRIMINALS!”

“Even the 93% without criminal records?”

“THAT’S FAKE NEWS, LIBTARD”

No, no. It makes perfect sense from an investment standpoint. Their actual target audience would love to be able to pay for access to that catalog.

Company profiting from allowing pedos to groom children enacts steps to prevent pedos from grooming children? Like that’s going to happen.

Whatever solution they come up with, I can guarantee that it “accidentally” has a loophole in it.

“Neither” is also an acceptable answer.

Say what you will about medieval monarchies, but at least those had the good sense to permit a court jester to speak foolishly of the head of state.

Please fill in the blanks:

• China’s socioeconomic model is _____.
• In the Russia—Ukraine war, Russia is _____.
• _____ Korea is the more prosperous of the two.

It really makes you think: which rich assholes recently bought stock in grocery store corporations?

It’s not just flagrant; it’s fragrant, too. The hypocrisy stinks like shit to high heavens.

That sounds like a great way to end up being in Russia’s shoes with failing to win a war they started. The feudalist part of that technofedualist dystopia is undoubtedly going to have imperialistic ambitions, and—somehow—I don’t think Musk’s Optimus robots are going to be able to compensate for the fact that they’ll have less than half of the combined population of Mexico and Canada.

“I do say to [Foley], first of all, I love her, because she voted for me three times, and I think she’d vote for me again if I had that opportunity,” Trump said.

He completely dismisses her concerns, then says she would vote for him again if given the chance. He’s probably right, and that’s exactly the problem.

He doesn’t have to do anything to keep his sycophants and qultists, so why would he put any effort into doing something differently?

Nothing. It will have been a “presidential duty” immune from consequences, as ordained by the bootlickers in the SCrOTUS.

Can you recommend me other (non atomic) distros that play nice with both secure boot and nvidia drivers?

I wouldn’t exactly recommend it because of the learning curve, but I have the exact setup you’re looking for working on NixOS.

Lanzaboote made it pretty easy. The downside is that you need to put secure boot into user-managed mode, and some asshole anticheats might not like that even though only Microsoft-signed executables were used in the boot chain of Windows.

For gamers who are newcomes to Linux, Ubuntu (or Debian) should be a hard pass. Linux gaming is advancing too fast for the 2-3 year gap between LTS versions to not matter, and trying to work around the stable (outdated) packages is typically what ends up breaking installs.

For gaming, you can’t go wrong with Bazzite. It’s meant for gaming to mostly just work out of the box, so you likely won’t need to tinker with anything.

It’s that tinkering that introduces stability risks. Adding third-party package repositories and trying to install newer software on top of older LTS distros is what tends to end up breaking them.

Even if it’s not telling the full story, as long as it makes MAGA voters regret their choices, right?

… wishful thinking, I know.

Astonishingly, most of Twitter users commenting on the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation’s instigating post are calling them full of shit in claiming the ad “misrepresents” the original clip.

The unedited version even more supports his distaste for tariffs. He was a big fan of immigration too. Now the stewards of his legacy are bootlickers, something Reagan never was.

Did you listen to the link you posted? Reagan actually went even further criticizing tariffs than in the clip from the commercial.

I don’t think they actually think they’re smart. I think they’re just selfish assholes.

Time and time again, I come across the argument that “it will make the price of everything to up because now businesses have to pay workers more.”

Ok—so? Businesses are forced to pay workers to a standard that allows everybody to live without drowning in debt and inescapable poverty. Isn’t it a good thing that people won’t be suffering?

No, not to them. Their wages won’t increase equivalently, and now they have to pay more to maintain their standard of luxury. It’s wealth redistribution away from those who can afford excess towards the people who can’t afford basics. They actively choose not to support that because it’s a personal inconvenience to them.

It’s an amazing demonstration of “equality looks like oppression to the privileged” and “fuck you, I got mine” attitude.

Even if the server had zero knowledge of your private keys (which is doubtful), I’m sure the client code won’t have any backdoors. It’s only the social media “platform” owned by the world’s most thin-skinned billionaire.
