Find an old laptop in a pawnshop and install Linux

Of the dark side of the moon, I think Pink Floyd is going to set up a live concert there and I want to see it

Microsoft Windows really is just a toy a datamining spamware of an OS meant to just be a toy to play on, no thanks I'm sticking with Linux

I agree, they are not making anything better, and only driving up the price of computer hardware

Is datamining all user's info from email addresses, credit/debit card info and whatever else they can get, I would not trust putting personal info or ideas that have monetary value or contraversial ideas that can be used for ammunition

Really, someday anyone with a decently powerful enough desktop will be able to use AI to clone any Microsoft application that runs nativly on Linux

Because the Europeans rather see Russia spy on them and steal secrets than have the USA's big tech biz spy on them and steal secrets

On people's personal electronic gadgets and home appliances, especially maps on smartphones, if I am driving somewhere and I need to glance at my map to see something pertenant to my driving I don't want advertising getting in the way,

advertisers already own TV and Broadcast radio, billboards in cities and highways, I think the advertising business need to learn their boundaries because they keep pushing advertising where it does not belong

They have all that money allowcated to them so they have work extra hard to embezzle all that money somehow so they come up with all this impossible to achieve projects as shells to cancel later so it looks good on the accountants books

We've noticed that since the mid 1990s

NEVER trust big tech to keep your data
(if you need to keep it top secret)

more free movies & music for the poor
I encourage the piracy of movies & music & software, the only people that will bother to pirate that stuff is poor because people with disposable income will just buy it and the poor should not be making the rich richer

I been all over the southwest USA and plenty of places with no cellular coverage and the only map on my phone that worked was organic maps

Doesn't matter if you use online maps or downloaded offline maps you still need gps, what if you were way out where cellular data was not available then a downloaded map would be beneficial

I am sure if you were starving you could pick a few kernels of corn out of a turd too
