As long as you remember that the cloud is just someone else's computer that they have admin rights on.

In contrast, banks all universally moved to single page apps lately, and every one of them sucks. Some suck more (we don't support you having more than one tab open while you are researching stocks) and some suck less (what is the back button for, anyway? Just ignore it). But they all suck.

And yes, users do care about using shitty stacks when they make shitty results.

Empty land does, in fact, vote...under the racist system that our founding slaveholders pushed for.

If your state isn't green, call your state representative (bonus: the one more likely to give a shit)

It's on his Wikipedia page, this isn't something you have to try hard to identify.

You posted a thing celebrating a sociopath for using Linux. I think you need meds.

Ghost might be better for you, as it's aimed to be a more complete distro with an installer and desktop environment.

I mean, you computer's wifi still won't work, but at least you'll have a nice UI to show you all the ways it does not work.

No, very clearly not.

I'm commenting on the effectiveness of a course of action.

Are we not in the same thread?

What's your retirement age now?

But genuinely, I'll accept that as generally true. One issue we have that you don't is you can get to the actual capital of power in like 5 hours from anywhere in the country. A very large swath of the more liberal population of this country lives 50 expensive driving hours or a very expensive flight away and there are very few labor protections. Most businesses are run by people who are on the side of the government, meaning you are asking folks to lose their job, fly or drive ~5000km, all to stand outside a place with armed riot police with signs. That doesn't sound appealing, nor does it sound effective based on the violent and blatantly illegal actions undertaken by the us government in DC and Portland during the previous trump administration.

So then the question becomes: is it time for an actual armed protest. Is that the right step?
