One third of me gave up a whole weekend! If that ain’t love I don’t know WHAT is!

Nestle can go fuck itself with a rusty rake.

Years ago, when this policy was first being contemplated, someone at google plugged a number, likely larger than this, into a spreadsheet analyzing the cost/benefit of spying on their customers.

This is just post-activation operating expense from their perspective.

Heaven as a persistent idea in modern society is just a cope that rich people feed poor people through religion. It’s a structure for us to accept our miserable earthly existence in anticipation of future wealth so that the rich can enjoy all of the trappings of heaven on earth.

It’s just metaphysical trickle down economics.

My only quibble would be to swap “pay” for “invest” which captures both the dynamic of up front expense and expected savings from ending recurring subscription fees. That’s how I look at it. Every penny I put into my own digital sovereignty is an investment that will yield returns both financial and otherwise.

No, I don’t. I think we’re being lulled into believing he isn’t still fucking our shit up just as much as before.

Hey you know what?

Does gun culture in America suck real bad? Sure it does.

Does it encourage stupid exchanges like this one? Absolutely.

But at least we have a populous that is primed, ready, and willing to fight back against tyrants, right?

Yeah in my experience it is both with both. Tire them out by throwing them around and then snuggle up.
