Used ThinkPad’s are pretty common on Ebay.

They’re what I use. Also with Debian.

“Recent” is a factor of how much you’re willing to shell out.

$300.00USD will get you a good Debian compatible box. You may want to then replace the battery and/or add RAM. Those are both found inexpensively also.

Yeah… Bullshit.

I no longer have the confidence in Google to believe anything they’re telling me.

Another good reason to go for LineageOS/GrapheneOS.

Not just computers…

As a septuagenarian, started very early as a voracious reader. Usually in bed before sleep. Often by flashlight.

Needed correction for nearsightedness by age 10.

Saw a study recently that attributed significant amounts of reading as a possible/likely cause… Tend to believe. This study seems to come to same/similar conclusion. Also tend to believe.

Can never be certain, but… 🤷‍♂️ 🤷‍♂️ 🤔

“will eventually roll into a subscription model”…

At which point I will happily cease and forego any/all use of Kindle.

Sunk costs and all.

Dewey Decimal applied life-wide…

Could be useful… Could be over-complicating…

In the words of Forrest Gump…

Stupid is as stupid does.

🤦‍♀️🤷🫏🤡🖕🖕

Edit: betting USDA isn’t the entity that actually fired anyone…

➕➕➕💯💯💯

On every single point made.

“Instructed”…

Funny word to use for a jackass elected to no position, elected to no power, assigned no power/position by Congress…

Oh wait, yeah…

He bought himself the US govt just like he bought himself a social media bullhorn.

Solidifying his position as “most dangerous person to democracy”.

🫏🤡🫏🤡🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

Pfft…

Good job.

The “one liner” thing is entirely overrated.

Honestly, who the fuck cares…?? 🤷🤷

Pfft…

Anyone who didn’t foresee a statement such as this happening early in this regime was either willfully ignorant, stupid beyond comprehension, or simply not paying attention.

It was inevitable with these bastard MAGAts.

And worse will be soon forthcoming.

🤦‍♀️🤷🫏🤡🖕

In the world I want to live in…

Google would have taken a principled stand against such an attempt at a govt.

Instead, they bent the knee along with every other Tech Oligarch and, therefore, deserve the hit.

Whew…

Lotta words for a semantics quibble that amounts to a distinction without a difference… 🤷‍♂️

If there existed any valid reasoning for the change… 🤷‍♂️

But the Felon Dicktater is only doing it so he can claim himself architect of global geographic change. Same reason he wants Greenland, Panama, Gaza, etc.

Fuck that.

I back Sheinbaum on this one. Won’t matter, but do it anyway.

Well… Yet another case of research confirming the bleeding obvious.

I guess having confirmation is good… 🤷‍♂️

Yep, seems legit, eh? 🤣
