Yes. Trump will be holding a gun to the head of the American Economy for the next four years, playing MAGA Roulette. Cycle: make threats, take bribes, time the market and make quick returns, then delay such threats...

Five years after a major architecture change sounds about right, given Apple's history. M68k was supported up to about 1998-1999. PPC software updates ended around 2010. So 2025 would make sense as the last year of Intel- Mac support.

So basically he can claim a 6 million loss on his taxes. It would be nice if regular working people could write off food consumed as capital losses, but our tax code favors the rich, so I already know the answer.

Yes, because they'll sell you subscription for extended support and make you think you're getting a great deal!!!

At least he didn't ask you to print his database out.

At this point, if you really believe Trump is a businessman, digital pioneer, real estate developer, great President, and that Democrats are evil, want to transition your children at school while flooding the country with migrants while taking away your guns, etc., please just give Trump all of your money right now. Sell your home, retirement savings, car, jewelry, Television, sell everything, and write him a check. Buy Trump's gold "assassination edition" sneakers, piece of Trump's debate suit, The Trump Superhero NFT collection, load up on Truth Social stock, Trump trading cards, Trump Crypto, etc. Do it now before supplies run out! Trump needs your money now to finance his lavish lifestyle, and Make America Great Again!!!

Seriously though, how is a crypto exchange not just another scheme to take illegal campaign contributions from foreign countries, dictators, enemies of America, and launder it into Trump's pocket? What Trump has proven time and again, is he has more conflicts on interest than Hunter Biden has mysterious laptops. Pointing this out to Trump's cult is a waste of time, so please if you're still MAGA, please do yourself and all of us a favor and just give everything to Trump now, and once he's president again, you'll know exactly how much he really cares about you or your family's welfare.

Your statement indicates that Putin never takes any responsibility for his decisions in Russia. The decision to invade Crimea, Luhansk, and Donetsk in 2014 was made by Putin, and Putin alone. The decision to invade the rest of Ukraine in February 2022 was made by Putin. But like any incompetent, corrupt, leader, it's always someone else's fault... "War's not going well? Don't blame the person who started it! Blame America..." I'll give you a clue. Putin invaded Ukraine. The Ukranian people didn't like that, so they defended their homeland. America and NATO saw Putin's invasion of Ukraine as a threat to Europe, so they rightly made the decision to assist Ukraine and facilitate their defense. Even America's biggest embarrasment/fool, and idiot, grudgingly supported Ukraine's defense from 2017-2020. Your leader Putin miscalculated, and now the Russian people are the ones paying the price. The vodka must be flowing thick where you are. It takes a lot of propaganda, fear, and repression to turn 147 million Russian people into Putin's personal sheep, that he can rob, murder, and shear as he pleases, and instead of blaming the Thief/ King, you blame America. Not the dictator and thief that's been robbing you since 1998.

With any luck, the American people are about to fire and retire America's biggest fool and most annoying old man. We thought we were done with the idiot in November 2020, but like your Putin, it's somehow someone else's fault, and he doesn't know when to quit. But at least for know, unlike in Russia, the American people have the power to elect and fire our leaders. I'm voting to make sure it stays that way.

Putin first invaded Ukraine on 12 April, 2014. Kamala Harris was in Ukraine in February 2022. I guess her mistake was being there eight years too late? Yes, somebody's delusional.

Nothing really to do with Linked-In, but at age 51 I have made up my mind that my current job will be my last one. If and when I lose it, I'll retire and that will be that, and I'll just live within the means of whatever I have saved up to that point. Maybe its a generational thing, but I feel Linked-In has ruined the job market in the same way Zillow has ruined the Real Estate market. It's resulted in inflated resumes, emphasis on "networking", "branding", and being an "influencer" over actual accomplishments. What really got me to quit Linked-In was seeing people I once respected make fools of themselves online. I'd rather quit Linked-In and remember my former colleagues as I knew them.

A Russian-speaking population that moves on from the Soviet- economic/political system to develop into a European country similar to Poland, or the Czech Republic... Putin cannot allow that kind of competition, as it's a threat to his "vertical of power" in Russia.

I think Tesla has completely lost touch with what real-world customers want in an EV. Hint: It's not generative AI self-driving and it's not retro '80s sci-fi-movie styling.

I've been getting a lot of SMS messages from people with asian-sounding female names, usually an innocuous "how's it going?" or something like that. I'm assuming they're pig butchering scams and just delete. The only voice call scammers I've been getting were the auto-warranty scams, but haven't had one of those in at least a year now. Haven't had any tech-support scammers in at least a decade now.

Call it: "Drag out the Vote".

It's the politicization of every-day objects.... Get a drag queen or undocumented person to drive a people in an EV nearest vaccination clinic, then give those who were vaccinated a free Bud Light, a free movie pass to the Disney movie of their choice (excluding Song of the South), a gift card at Target, and a chance to win free Taylor Swift concert tickets. Do all this in FL or TX. Or better yet, have drag queens drive people in EVs to the polling stations on Election Day to vote, and have drag queens give out free water to those standing in line...
