If i was considering buying Dell in the future I sure as hell ain't now.
But George Soros amirite folks?!
I am seriously confused about the rationale here.
You thought Dell was a good fit for your next purchase. You've done some research, and Dell appears to have met your needs for quality and price.
The owners of Dell pledged $625 billion to a system that should help children in various ways. There have been a lot of complaints recently from young people about how the system has failed them: housing is too expensive, not enough high paying jobs, they can't afford to get married, own a home, and have kids.
This donation seems like it would be a start towards fixing this. Perhaps other high-end donors will add to the accounts.
Having an easy way to add to your children's future over time seems like it would help fixing this, it's simple and a "no brainer" for parents: they don't have to learn financing or do research or set up accounts, everyone online will be analyzing the accounts and tell whether they are a good idea. Parents can focus on parenting and rely on expert analysis for whether this is a good idea.
And you are so miffed at this that... for some reason... you've decided to boycott Dell and spend your money elsewhere?
I'm completely at sea here. In what universe does your decision make sense?
Addendum: Looking over the edit page of this post, it occurs to me that there is a universe where "jacks smirking reven" is not a US citizen, and is just making troll posts to foment divisiveness in America. I've seen a lot of really funny news accounts (example) of political shitposters on X being from foreign nations. Are we in that universe?
And will Slashdot ever add the "account based in" feature?
(BTW, I'm from the US, I promise
