And then wait for the next right-wing psychopath to buy up that one? You can’t jump off Twitter to another privately held platform and not expect the same to happen there sooner or later.

They don’t have to take away your power if you stop yourself from using it first. Don’t willingly give up your voice.

That’s a stage name. I assume some of the others on the list are too.

Not only wouldn’t he see a punishment, but he’d be elected a second time to do it again!

A 20 year old car can be perfectly functional.

Not if the car manufacturers get their wish. They’d love to force you to buy a new car every few years. Having tech installed that becomes obsolete fast would help make you upgrade.

They won’t, but they bought me a brand new shiny copy of Linux Mint.

And democracy never comes back peacefully. Dictators never give up their power. The only way to bring it back is through revolution. Many more lives will be lost just to bring what the voters gave up this week.

That’s a Canada goose. They get pretty big.

Non binary

Oh wow, I remember having one of these on my keyboard.

Windows 10? I’m on Linux Mint 22, which is more than double the number.

Checkmate Microsuck.

I’m shocked that the people who stand to benefit from it have a different definition than we do.

i’m sure they’d be fine with it if it were their kids on the receiving end, right?

I ditched Microsoft on my new build back in Feb. I installed Mint and it’s been a really smooth transition for me. I can still do everything I used to, although I know there are some use cases where it’s a problem for people. All the games I’ve tried run well.

But it does give me peace of mind that someone isn’t going to change my settings in a way that benefits them in a patch. I feel like I’m working with my OS to get things done instead of wrestling against what some corporate MBA wants.

Maybe he broke his arms.

All those sci-fi novels were meant as warnings not instruction manuals

You’re in a thread about MS fucking up and you’re annoyed that people are… [Checks notes]… complaining about MS fucking up? What exactly did you come here expecting?
