Republicans and Democrats have been moving steadily to the right for the last 40 years. So now, Democrats are where the Republicans were in the 1980s: boring, middle of the road corporatists, friends of banks, insurance and pharmaceutical companies. And the right has moved all the way into an insane asylum. We haven’t had a real progressive president since Jimmy Carter and that was 50 years ago.
I also recommend NewPipe for Android. It lets you download in multiple formats and shows comments in a mobile format (you can get it through the F-Droid store or from github.)
Youtube isn’t some one of a kind miracle. There’s at least a dozen already-established streaming platforms that would take its place. There are thousands of websites that have no problems hosting gigs and gigs of porn, so it’s not as difficult as people think.
“Early Stages?” You’ve got AI mining your data. The Lions have already come and gone. The hyenas and other scavengers are picking over the scraps, now.
The scam involving the fake CFO was only discovered when the employee later checked with the corporation’s head office.
A surprise teleconference resulting in the transfer of $25 million dollars? You can bet your ass I’m going to verify that transaction by calling the CFO on his direct line before any money is sent.
Does anyone understand the point of advertising a game doing something that, after downloading, it does not do?
They’re called “lies.”
LibreOffice is an an amazing replacement for the MS-Office suite.

Another vote for Brother . I have a black & white laser printer (mfc-L2675). And I can get a 3-pack of toner off Amazon for around $20.
I heard the number 6 is a lucky number in Chinese culture and that explains why there are so many Chinese companies with 6 letter names, like “Dingbo” and “moofoo” It seems to me like they just used a random letter generator.
Yeah, but think of all the money Amazon saved by not hiring customer service reps. Lol.
How Elon deals with advertising complaints: “Go advertise someplace else.”
Advertisers:
“Shoah.” I couldn’t make it through all 9 hours.
An electric turkey-carving knife, made in 1962. GE built it to last.
He’s currently the Chairman and owner of Fox News. He’s been the chairman and CEO of 20th Century Fox and News Corp going all the way back to 1980.
I would rather have one wish granted and live just long enough to see it happen.
“Trickle-down economics.” They’re literally saying, “we’re pissing on you.”
They also love to say, “a rising tide lifts all boats.” Unless, of course, you don’t have a boat and we know what happens to them. How well the stock market is doing means literally fark-all to most of us.
Also known as “prosperity gospel.” The religious justification for obscene wealth. The basic idea is that if you are rich, it’s because God has chosen you to BE rich because you are morally superior to everyone else. It’s an absolute perversion of Jesus’ teaching in the New Testament.
News ownership has consolidated over the last 40 years from around 40 companies in the 1980s to 6 today. This is that “liberal news media” conservatives keep yammering on about. The one that’s owned by 6 corporations.
