He looks like "Poochie" from The Simpsons.
I bet Elmo has all kinds of cool ideas for making the government "more efficient." Like not going after billionaires to pay their share of the tax burden.
If you work 40 hours a week and you STILL can't afford to pay basic living expenses, then your economy sucks.
I'm actually enjoying the Linux learning curve because I know it's not working against my interests.
On the other hand, every time I've had to go "under the hood" with Windows (Registry settings, config files) it's been to prevent Microsoft from doing something sh*tty to me.
Microsoft also wants to use 50 gigabytes of your hard drive space (for the Recall snapshots) and make you buy AI co-processors or their software won't work. They want to use your property to create their own Skynet.
A dog will try to save your life if you're drowning. A cat will sit on your head to keep from getting wet while you're drowning.
A lot of these streaming services are ultimately owned by the same company. Ever had a favorite show, where only seasons 1,3 and 5 are available on one "service" and only seasons 2 and 4 are available on the other? This lets the owner of the series double-dip customers on subscription fees.
"Privatize the profits and socialize the risks." (for billionaires)
"But we can't let poor people get handouts. That's socialism."
AI is a ponzi scheme to relieve stupid venture capitalists of their money.
I have never heard of ANY of these services and I download a lot of stuff.
We have to accept false dichotomies because the only alternative is cannibalism.
I grew up watching WW2 movies and the Nazis were never shown as being anything other than Bad Guys. I would love to know how anyone grows up here in the U.S. and doesn't know that.
Who would have guessed that a social media platform owned by an apartheid-loving fascist would trend right wing? I mean, Musk is such a stable genius.
/s just in case.
6:30am "Vrrrrroooooooooooooomm!" for about a minute.
Silence for 45 seconds.
"Vrrrooooooooooooom!" for about a minute.
Repeat for the next 1 1/2 hours.
Also, almost every older game, like Deus Ex or Giants: Citizen Kabuto, I can run separately under Wine. The only game that doesn't quite work is NOLF 1. No music. (I can't seem to get DirectMusic working properly in Wine yet).
My entire Steam library works on Linux Mint.
YouTube is also aggravating customers who use their official apps by increasing the frequency and length of the ads. In just 4-5 months, I've seen YouTube ad lengths on Roku go from 10-15 seconds to 30 seconds, to a minute.
They're trying to recoup lost ad revenue by pissing off the one demographc most likely to sit in front of the TV the longest.
"Why are our sales plummeting?"
Because you didn't spend any part of that price hike on improving the quality of your food.
"Butters? Are you on Twitter?"
"No Dad! Just watching porn!"
