cool, Spez has a Lemmy account

I find going on and off DST to be kind of a nuisance, but I don’t have strong feelings about it one way or the other. It seems like the experience varies from place to place, and your region’s distance to the equator is an important factor. The closer you are to the equator, the less necessary DST is.

Historically, some of the regions that went off of DST much prefer it that way, and never looked back. But others regretted opting out of it, and went back to doing it again after everyone complained about it.

I’m sure 47 will make it all about him, whatever he does. And it will probably be a chaotic mess of software patches when they try to implement it. There will be far worse problems to deal with during the Stupid Ages, but throw this one on the pile I guess.

I’ve only seen one of them up close in person and it was pretty cool, I do admit. But I still don’t want one for myself. Something about the whole thing just feels weird and off. I’d be constantly feeling like it was going to split apart from plastic fatigue if I had one.

why are leopards eating my face I’m so confused

And here I thought my late 2024 anxiety level was maxed out already.

It’s a good question, I’m very curious to know if he did this for political reasons, personal reasons, or both.

FYI, his family is wealthy. They own a country club in Maryland. Not that I’m opposed to crowd-funding his defense. I think it would send another message that the greedy health insurance companies need to hear loud and clear.

Always annoys the hell out of me when politicians say BS like, “We know you like your private insurance plan and want to keep it”.

So out of touch.

I’m not a legal / financial expert by any means. But I think info about the executives, board, etc., has to be published in things like the securities prospectus for the companies, etc.

“Dogs and cats sleeping together!”

She must have ripped off some wealthy people. Rookie mistake. Only steal from the poor, then the justice system doesn’t care.

Many times you can compact that stuff down with minimal effort. Just use the bag or whatever you’re throwing away so that you aren’t touching the other garbage with your hand.

GRRM was trolling all along.

The 12 year old video below explains the root cause of economic misery. Technology is a tool that can be used for good or evil. But the ruling class wants ALL the money. So technology is often used for more efficient oppression.

Meanwhile, we working class folks are too busy working and/or distracted (often fighting with each other) to mount any real resistance.

Fortunately I work in a small shop and am a domain admin. Using a combo of Powershell and ShutUp10, I cut out as much of the stupid bloat and spyware as I can. The OS still sucks, but it’s much more tolerable with that crap turned off.

One of these days I’m going to get off my lazy butt and create a custom Windows 11 installation ISO with the nonsense pre-removed.

(And yes, I also use Linux, and prefer it.)

They make use it at my job. I hate it.
