Trump lives in his own reality, where he is a billionaire genius, and Taylor Swift and her fanbase loves him.
In our reality, he’s a traitor insurrectionist, rapist, racist, liar, fraud, corrupt, sexist, convicted felon, asshole, degenerate, Fascist, and heavily-indebted moron. And Taylor Swift hates him.
Does Donald Trump, the convicted felon rapist racist, really want Taylor Swift to publicize again to him about how much she champions for human rights, advocates for the LGTBQ+ community, adovcates for abortion rights, and hates the corrupt fascism and conservatism poisoning the U.S.?
Right before an election, too! Sure, Diaper Don, let’s get the Swifties angry again and let’s have them vote Democratic in droves. That’s a community you should really piss off!
Desperate Diaper Don, beloved friend of Jeffrey Epstein, is desperate once again.

EDIT:
Remember to vote. Do not get complacent. Make sure you vote, and tell your friends and family to vote. Say NO to Fascism.

Trump stumbled into the chat: “The most insecure man in America, biggest there’s ever been. I don’t think we’ve ever seen anyone more insecure, and nobody knows more about it than me. I’ve drawn in record insecurity, just ask and they’ll tell you. Tremendous, truly. But insecure? Doubtful. Such a shame, it’s tragic, really it is. But I tell you, and I was talking to the Uh - you know who - and they said, why are you so insecure? And I responded, I’ve drawn in more crowds than, and look, Kim Jong Un even respects me, I’ve had great relations with the Russians. They’re frowning now at us, they don’t respect us nor do they want to do business with us. Insecure? This country is tumbling, and when I win back the election because it was, and look it was stolen, but when I get the president back, I swear, we’re gonna make it bigger than it’s ever been before. Insecure? Look we’ll make it more secure. It will be big secure. Best we’ve ever seen; and we’re doing great things, really great things for the jobs and the economy. EVs are heavy - no one wants them, they want gas, diesel cars, big trucks, and EVs. But I tell you no one wants EVs. But they’re so heavy, I don’t know if you all know this since I’ve got a smart—- * gestures vaguely at head * —- you know what. But I ask them to turn around the cameras. No one’s gonna show you that, and it’s just really sad. My crowd size is huge, I’ve drawn in more people than Dr King did. Just look at the fountains, nothing changed, the people were there and you see. The crowds were big, and they try to say I brought 2000. If they said I brought 2000, then they’d say ‘oh his campaign is over he’s finished.’ But I let them have it with Dr King, because I like King and I like black people. But media won’t tell you that, they just uh cut the facts down to whatever fits their fake news, and then, so we see Biden, you know? And I was all set for him, but then they brought in the most unpopular war criminal, Harris, who is barely compliment, and look she has no brains, I got big brains. She couldn’t pass the BART test and pass laws, she can’t even debate. No complimency, it’s true. You have to trust me on this because it’s such a sad time. Shameful really. I’m most unsecured, sorry, most insecure man there’s ever been. We’re gonna make this country great because we’re about to go on world war 2 again. I can make friends with the Russians. Ukraine? They never would have invaded Russia if I was president. Good guy, really. I’ll bet no one tells Kim he’s insecure, especially after uh what happened with the black wife, Kanye. But look. If they just turn around the cameras, they’ll show you I had record turnout, biggest crowd ever that stormed the capitol. And no one died on Jan 6, they always said they did but they were lies from Crazy Pelosi, just look at her she’s crazy. And Jill, sorry I mean Harris, she’s the most unpopular, most unpopular there ever was in the history of our country, ever. She brings in very little excitement, but my campaign is as exciting as it ever was. I bring in tremendous crowds, I’ve been great with black men, even the Jews love me. But white males? The numbers are hyuuuuuuuge. I don’t know if I’ll have black males vote for me, but the rest of them love me. My crowds are records, but they never talk about — what they do talk about it, is that they’ll do anything to try to spin up what I did , and that’s the truth. I’ve agreed to theee debates, and we’ll see because the truth needs to be heard. The Lunatic Left is always, and really they are. Harris can debate me, she barely competent! I’ll be happy to debate her any time any place. I’ve got the world’s experts, and the people love me and they’ll be voting to get, worst country ever. And that’s no joke, it’s a sad time in America. We’re not respected, I think I mentioned before how Putin sees us, and they don’t care. I’ll make this country more secure, best security ever, so all those countries don’t let out the floodgates and release the insane asylums into our country. They want no border, no security. I want so much security, that I will make this country truly a great country of insecurity.”

That’s a good looking keyboard right there mate.
I hear you dude. That 10+ year reputation is what drove me to buy their stuff, along with all the glowing user recommendations.
I heard that you can make the rubber last longer on mice by periodically cleaning them to slow their chance of breaking down, but I never experienced the rubber actually separating. That happened to my spouse’s Razer mouse (heh, that rhymes).
But I suppose that, apart from this whole post’s focus on “as a service”, that possibly Logi products have begun to go downhill quite recently. I wouldn’t know, all of mine have been great. Sucks for your MX mouse, but I feel you on the uncertainty of buying future Logi mice.
Such a shame too because I always recommended the G502. I love the feel, the ergonomics, and the button placement. I love the customizeable weights you can swap in. I used to play with all the weights, but then over the years I took them all out and now use none. My aim got better in FPS games - I went from steaming hot garbage to just regular garbage LOL.
I’m going to watch a couple review videos of the G13 to see if it’s up my alley. And if yes, I’ll add that bad boy to my watch lists and pick up a used one if I can score it for a decent price.
That’s quality right there. You probably would have bought those key caps, but they just sent them to you for free. That’s going above and beyond, and that’s how you keep a customer. Noctua is all about that, and I’ll continue to buy their products and recommend them.
Such a shame, Logitech. You were great but now you’re turning into crap.
Dude, the G502 is such a great mouse. Mine has lived through so many years of gaming and is still chugging!
If you get ~7 years of life out of the M705, I would consider that to be quality since it would last through thousands of hours of usage. Any less and I would consider it a dud product, but that is certainly my opinion only there.
Never heard of the G13 before, so I looked it up and I think that’s pretty cool! This would have been a product I would have to try to see if it would fit my use case for gaming. A mini keyboard with a joystick seems cool, and admittedly I’m hovering my left hand in the air and trying to mimick what that would be like. Hard to conceptualize without actually trying it! I hope you got good use out of it, it does seem really cool.
If Logitech didn’t enshittify, they should’ve made their own version of the Power Glove. 😀 The Power Glove was way before my time on Earth, but man that would’ve been cool to see for PC.
When enough people are burned, that list will arise spontaneously. I’m sure there are some that are out there, but they probably are not well-known yet.
For example in the privacy community, Privacy Guides is one of the golden sources. I expect we’ll see something soon for products that avoid enshittification.
That’s a fair point. It’s interesting because this month I was considering upgrading my webcam to a 1080p 60fps one and certainly was going to consider them. I probably would have lightly researched a new Logi webcam and then bought it considering their track record and how wonderful my products have been.
I want to give companies my money in exchange for good products, but it’s weird! My morals won’t let me for some reason. It’s like I don’t agree with Logitech or something! Oh well! I’ll keep my money in my pocket and save it for a better product that doesn’t treat their customers like cattle.
Hello fellow GOG fan! I own 620 games on GOG, and I license 214 games on Steam. Granted some of those Steam games do not have DRM, so consider that an estimate.
Man you sound almost exactly like me lol. A lot of angry persons who have been burned by companies are becoming like us. What sent me over the edge was when Ubisoft threatened to shutdown their legacy activation servers, which would have led to me losing the DLC I purchased for my physical Wii U copy of Splinter Cell Blacklist. They backpedaled after significant fan backlash, but now I’ve been radicalized. I avoid “as a service” to the best of my ability and am deliberately hostile to these corporations.
Since we’re pretty much all in agreement that Logitech has enshittified with the Great Ones like Ubisoft, Hewlett Packard, and more, let’s talk about our last great products they made that we will no longer recommend! 😃
These are all my products that I love, and have been extremely high quality. All of them work just fine to this day!
Oh Logitech. Why can’t you just make products we can own instead of following the greedy “As a Service”? Ah well! Bound to happen one day (Steam, please please don’t ever become public).
Indeed. Unfortunate characteristic of the Internet Archive in the age where almost everything is instantaneous. It’s a treasure we must protect to preserve the accessibility of our history.
I can get lost in there for so long. A recent rabbit hole I’ve gotten lost in is looking at old commercials that were recorded on Beta and VHS and uploaded. I also love old restored footage (~100+ years ago) that gets uploaded. It’s amazing to just watch this history, try to put yourself into the context of the time period, and vicariously experience these human beings that are either so old or long dead.
Preserve what you can, folks. Protect our history.
Also, fuck DRM and Everything-as-a-Service.
