I don't think the Democrats have ever said the Republicans are the end of Democracy...Trump and his cult will end Democracy.

There's like maybe 10 Republicans out there that aren't in the Trump cult.

Ok...that's not bootlicking...that's a legit plea for some poor fuck in the poorest of situations.

I've been in situations where I know I'm about to fuck my coworkers over and I let them know beforehand. Management can eat my dick however.

Bob, you might want to take a sick day on Wednesday...why?...just do it...here's my linked in info.

Let's be real...those statements are true of both nations...the only thing that's different is the propaganda you listen to.

China will use my info to market me more and better cheap shit. The US will use my info in litigation or worse.

If China wants to launch a full scale assault, they could, and they'd win. They've got better tech these days and our number the US by like 10 to 1.

I'm less worried about China knocking on my door for political descent than I am of the US these days.

China can spy on me. I feel safer with them having my info than Musk (Or if you really want to get in the weeds, GM or Ford who's happy to share that info with big insurance and law enforcement)

I'm impressed he slowed down to 19/hr...I thought he averaged like 1-2/m

Your milage will vary with your corporate policies. You're not wrong, but you're not completely right.

I can't just pick up any smartphone and install a passkey manager on it. It has to adhere to some specific hardware requirements (like a dedicated chip or instruction set on a CPU).

So yea, in standing by the 2fa dedicated hardware line. It's easier than getting into the weeds on hardware device configuration.

Basically dedicated 2FA hardware.

If you lose it, you're fucked, end of story.

Idiocracy was prophetic.

In town, doing 30-45...I'll risk it. At highway speeds, probably not.

I just want to point out I don't believe this is a far left thought. It's a very good Russian disinformation campaign.

For 5k USD (if google is right), I'd drive it.

Or people that vote for Stein instead of Harris.

Last couple of things I've seen from newsweek went hard right. I don't know when they became part of the propaganda machine, but it's severe.

We forget...every 4 years a few super zelots crawl out of the wood work to siphon of a point or two of votes, then crawl back in the dark corners like the cockroaches they are.

Dude...you need to get off X and watch something other than Newsmax

Bill Gates (but that's debatable...he's at least doing some good with his money)

11 made me make that switch. My main gaming / media machine is still on W10 and will be until it dies. Then I'll finally invest in figuring out gaming on Linux.

But for day to day browsing and development. Ubuntu has been excellent and is much more snappy than windows. I also picked up a cheap ancient MacBook pro for interviews and it's a solid machine as well.

No regrets so far.

If Kamala loses the middle east will be a giant flaming crater. That's probably not something to be happy about.

It worked with the border.
