It's clear you have no concept of what an average commute looks like for most people and simply want to demonoze someone who you little about.

You have no business postulating about what neurotypical people might do in any given situation.

Bots and poorly behaved people who have been shown they don't need to feel shame anymore. That's what is runing comments sections and causing things like what you observed.

You seem to be having trouble separating the fictinal police procedurals you've been watching with reality.

Short sighted idiots and people trying to justify "I want a new car" that they clearly can't afford will "justify" it with fuel savings or lower operating costs. It almost never works out.

Nothing to see here. The same thing happens literally every time fuel costs spike.

Was in PC and printer field service when these were popular. The parallell port versions were our go-to for service software/drivers/updates/installs.

I've not been told any talking points. I'm describing my direct observations, and your response and others are proving me correct again, and again.

You see, I'm not a political idelogue. I don't do culture wars. I don't worship a failed businessman nor any other politician. Those are things people like you do, and your projections onto people like me, who hold not radical left nor radical authoritarian (you consistently confuse this with "conservative" but it's not) views. People like me, which is most people in the country in case you have forgotten, are very tired of sad little people like you.

Did you just post LLM slop or did you copy that from fox entertainment new comments section? It's so full of internal inconsistencies you're just proving the post you responded to.

I see we've got ourselves a "temporarily embarassed billionaire" here, who things they will benefit from these policies. It's incredible how gullable one must be to not only contionually vote against your own self interests but to also spend you time online trying to justify it and convince others to do so.

But this time around the slavish anti-intellectual followers are outing themselves quite publically.

You lose magas a "think". They have been taught to follow and repeat only. They want an authoritarian so they don't have to think for themselves ever again. The anti-intellictualism runs very deep.

I'm not a lunatic leftist or a maga. But it's always interesting how when talking to either one of them they immediately assume you are on "the other side". Guess what: most people aren't political radicals. Most of the country is tired of hearing from both of you packs of losers shouting at each other.

Magas hold no positions, values, or morals. They believe what they are told to believe, even if that contradicts what they were told to believe weeks, days, or even minutes ago. They will parrot whatever fox news talking points that somehow attempt to square this circle with bring back US domestic industry and american first. Just like they think "paying a fundir religious zealot run nation twenty billion dollars" a "win."

If I had that kind of money I'd have stepped down long ago to live on a private South Pacific island with rum, hot tubs, and supermodels.

To me the hoops that smoothbrains will jump through to avoid IPv6 and stay on legacy IPv4, especially when hosting, is pathetic. NAT, port forwarding, tunnels, blah blah blah blah.

I have something like ~1.2 trillion times the number of routable addresses that the entire IPv4 space has. Not all are reachable, of course, just the services that need incoming access and they're each on their own isolated DMZ.
