I see that as literally the worst thing he could do right now. It would just seem more suspicious, even uniting the conspiracy theorist crowd with the normies against him.

Exactly. When we do it, it’s a crime. When the regime does it, it suddenly cute.
It’s possible I’m wrong about this. I’m just worried. I can’t see anything good coming from tying into the US government in any way right now.
Just a little apology to anyone who read, I definitely rambled on here. I’m overrun with ideas and just don’t know how to trim this all down
They can redefine why that membership means at any time.
“If we can just get rid of all the humans, I’ll have a machine that prints me free money!”
This is all that the AI push is about. It really is that stupid. Nobody is going to ever pay for AI if they aren’t employed anymore.
Oracle?! You have money and power and everyone hanging on you and you chose ORACLE?!
How can anyone take this seriously?!
Look at an old colorful iMac running an early version of Mac OS X. The decisions made in its appearance were unnecessary but pleasant. The aqua interface was functional but pretty. It played with textures in fun ways that weren’t distracting, like pinstriping in menus that matched the machine itself, shiny jelly buttons and icons that looked more alive and interesting. While it can be said that they leaned in too heavily to this sometimes (brushed metal and stitched leather were…a lot) the overall experience was engaging. People were trying new things and there was variety, even from a company demanding a uniform market like Apple.
Now look where we are in 2025. We have Liquid Glass, which is just loud and in my way, inefficient and less functional. We have AI everywhere which does everything we could already do but without any accountability or responsibility so there’s no consequences when it fucks up like if a human did. We have companies competing against eachother to see who can most effectively suck the life out of their customers rather than who can make the most appealing product the get customer buy in.
Nobody cares about the consumer anymore. It’s all just a big money laundering operation for shareholders. Business majors ruined the world.
It doesn’t help that the prices charged by providers are never what they expect to actually be paid BY INSURANCE COMPANIES if you are paying yourself, oh boy, you gotta pay the entire thing but and insurance company only has to pay the “allowed amount”. So providers have to pretend there is a discount for members of insurance companies by creating an imaginary price for the uninsured to compare it to.
Healthcare is all Kohls pricing.
I really think Apple took a step back with Liquid Glass. It’s inefficient, less functional, gimmicky, and just unpleasant to use. They aren’t doing something they couldn’t do before. They are doing something they actively decided against years ago and suddenly think it’s a good idea now.
Too many marketing people making decisions at Apple these past few years. It’s amazing Apple silicon ever got off the ground.
Printer? What?
Google has too much power and control. Even if I don’t have power and control of all my data, someone else having that power instead of Google is still preferable to leaving it all in their hands.
Break it up into many small pieces that do not like eachother.
The Internet archive is important and Trump now has control over it.
There. I simplified it for you.
Isn’t it strange how they keep collecting taxes but kill all the things that tax money was supposed to go into?
You know the funniest part about all this? They are betting on a financial promise made by Donald Trump. The man has a long established reputation for not paying his debts.
They are being awful people, in public, placing themselves in great danger if they are ever identified, for money they likely will never get.
Put an airtag on the collar. Done.
Strange. Shitting on your bosses desk is still free. Hmm. Interesting loophole.
Yes however they are literally move all their infrastructure to the UK so they won’t be an option soon.
Windscribe is a thin too, but since they are Canadian and Canada is making stupid political deals with the US lately, it can’t be relied on either.
I2p and the return of webrings. Done.
That’s actually a good point, even if a bit macabre. Luigi took out a health insurance ghoul. Business majors doom us all. I’m not the only one to draw that conclusion.
I dont see a way out of this mess without people dying so I dont let myself have a gun. But not everyone who thinks this way places the same shackles on themselves.
So why isnt that more common?
