When are people going to realize that this American government actively gets off on harming and killing people?

They do realize this. They approve of it.

Conservatives generally operate from a circle-of-concern perspective. The people who matter are their immediate relatives, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. The topics that matter are those that directly affect them right now. Everything else is unimportant and ought to be stopped or, preferably, destroyed, so it doesn't take anything whatsoever from "me and mine", whether that's something I currently possess, or something I will or would like to possess.

And anyone who opposes this perspective on reality is an enemy, and a part of the stopped/destroyed -- personally and in everything they care for or about.

So, see, from all you wrote, the only aspect that's minimally relevant is the Dems stopped caring for blue-collar workers. That's accurate and factual.

The other topics you brought are right-wing media bogeymen designed to elicit strong emotions, with zero detrimental effect on 99% of the population even if they were pursued to total completion.

DOGE reported on many thousands of subscriptions to things that were being paid for by the taxpayers.

Given their track record, I think it'd be more accurate to say DOGE reported thousands of times on the same one subscription being paid for by the taxpayers, because it appeared on multiple databases, no one at DOGE normalized those because they have no idea how to do that, and as a result the cost informed in their report was falsely inflated by three orders of magnitude.

Comment Incomprehensible PR rah-rah (Score 1) 14

[...] giving our existing users another surface for agent collaboration that simply doesn't exist anywhere else. Email isn't just another app; it's where professionals spend significant portions of their day, and it's the perfect staging ground for orchestrating multiple AI agents simultaneously

Did you understand anything in that marketdroid BS? I didn't.

All this screams to me is: avoid - avoid - avoid.

Once Trump's tariffs kick in and the inflation pressure amplifies, Americans will be in the streets calling for his resignation.

Some will. His devouts will think something along these lines:

"Sure, prices are high, but that's because they are attacking the US, and killing babies, and mutilating children, and then grooming those mutilated children into going to their secret pizzeria underground dungeons where they're raped and then sacrificed to Beelzebub, all the while their invading hordes of international military cat-and-dog eating gangs roam the cities causing riots, because they hate 'Murica and must be stopped! And He's stopping them! So higher prices are a small price to pay for Saving Freedom and Democracy and the 'Murican Dream and Way of Life!!!1!11!!"

And so will adamantly oppose any call they may make for Trump to step down.

Comment I see more and more products marketed as AI-free (Score 4, Interesting) 49

It's becoming a selling point.

Hell, I even watched a video leaked from some OnlyFans account that had the preamble "This content creator prides herself in making her own content herself entirely: no AI bullshit involved!" If the porn industry rejects it, you know it's bad for business.

Comment Wayland mostly works for me (Score 1) 131

including screen recording. TFA is incorrect on that one.

What it really, REALLY lacks is proper remoting. The best option available at the moment is wayvnc - i.e. VNC over a headless Wayland session. It works, but VNC sucks ass. There's no RDP support and there's no remote session greeter.

Fortunately, my only Wayland machine is a laptop, so it's not like I need to remote it a lot, if at all.
