“Sucks” isn’t even a swearword! Are we j*st going to st*rt censoring normal w*rds now?

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.

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.

That’s not hypocritical. That’s reaching your target audience.

Are you my cat? Sometimes he won’t stop!

That’s what you’re for.

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 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.

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?

You mean like the softwood lumber dispute that’s been going on for over 40 years where the US has put illegal tariffs on Canadian softwood exports? The one where they’ve been found in breach of the agreement multiple times and still haven’t fixed it?

Yeah, I’m sure they would never put tariffs on Mexican electric cars to protect their own auto industries.

Don’t worry, the US govt will put huge tariffs on them soon enough.

Unshackle their head from their shoulders.
