At this point it is just to aggravate the left side and direct attention away from the main issue, which is ICE murdering people. MAGA at this point only cares that they remain in power and they dismantle the liberal state. Everything else is chatter.

    Given the unprecedented abuse of power and overwhelming evidence of corruption, the fact he still has that much approval only serves to show how deeply flawed is the distribution of power in the US.

    Big corpo lobbying paved the way for this brand of extremist cronyism that provides for the biggest players willing to grease the president directly, even circumventing the legislative bodies.

    I bet relatively smaller players are as flabbergasted as reasonable people and left-wing people. But this is what happens after decades of big shareholders being able to shape politics.

    I use bluefin since I do AI research but installing Steam is super easy. Personally I think it's good if you have learned how Linux works at a high level (things like kernel and user space, systemd, the filesystem, targets, etc.) but in principle it requires very little maintenance. No dnf update and possible issues with drivers, almost everything is taken care of upstream. They even have an AI chatbot based on dosu on the discussion forum so you can troubleshoot.

    I posted somewhere almost a year ago he was planning to rewrite Wikipedia using grok and some people commented that I was being paranoid. In before he takes down the official Wikipedia after grok finishes digesting it in a satisfactory manner. I mean the trump government will find some way to ban Wikipedia, I bet China is already lending expertise on how to state-control the American internet

    Typical tech-bro bait for cultivating the cult of worship that allows billionaires to extract profit from compliant drones and consumers. Just because he is rich we have to listen to every bs statement his says cause it can have consequences one way or the other. People should stop buying from Amazon yesterday. It's really that simple.

    Yeah exactly, housing is used as a value storage for large players when they need to use a generic asset in between investments. It's relatively safe but its value is passive, it is driven by the rest of the market. Plus it's great for money laundering and bribing politicians or officials. So all this manipulation raises the prices for everyone, and most people don't benefit from it. It's just so greedy and abusive.

    If as a result people start gaining some consumer intelligence and instead of supporting the technofascist they start buying small and independent that would make this whole thing worth it.
