Trump himself was a Democrat until about 5 minutes before he decides to run for the Republican nomination. His whole family were Democrats and donors too. His cabinet has Tulsi Gabbard and RFK Jr, both Democrats until Trump.

Trump has really turned the Republican party quite blue, both in terms of staff and economic policy.

Because not every single thing he says can or should be just handwaved "oh it's just a negotiating tactic".

My favorite haiku:

It's not DNS...
There's no way it can be DNS...
It was DNS.

Yes, you can. I do exactly this when I set up new, preloaded, Win11 boxes at work. I have a bogus M$ account I use just to get the machine configured. First thing I do after getting the machine to a desktop is create a local admin account and nuke the online one.

If you don't encounter the issue you wouldn't see it as an issue... would you?

Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.

That's the whole problem. It takes planning and an ICE doesn't.

The young people of today think of nothing but themselves. They have no reverence for parents or old age. They are impatient of all restraint. They talk as if they alone knew everything and what passes for wisdom with us is foolishness with them. As for girls, they are forward, immodest and unwomanly in speech, behaviour and dress.

Your taste in cinema must be pretty out there then because reviewers like NYT give widely popular movies good reviews all the time.

My big problem with fan reviews are two things. The first is the modern political stuff, I don't care what busy bodies think of a movie on either side of the political spectrum. Review bombing is a big problem with fan reviews.

The other problem I have with fan reviews is for more niche productions they can't be trusted because niche productions tend to overwhelmingly attract enthusiasts of said niche as opposed to a proper sampling of the general public. This makes the fans reviews largely useless for those with more mainstream tastes as the really big enthusiasts in a genre or other categorization of movies will give almost anything a good score within the context they're excited about

For that last one what I think of the most is anime reviews. Most fan reviews of anime are done by hardcore anime fans (outside of the rare, really big production). I am not one of those though so their reviews are useless to me as in my ample experience hardcore anime fans don't give great advice on what anime to watch to those of us who only enjoy a very small percent of this genre.

Democrat leaders are going around saying we need illegal aliens to pick our crops, cook our food, and clean our houses. In 1860, Democrats said we needed slaves to pick our crops, cook our food, and clean our houses.

In 1860 the GOP said NO. Today, the GOP says NO.

I see a trend.

Trump either does not understand that or thinks that USA citizens are too stupid to understand.

Activision isn't making the calls here, Microsoft, which bought Activision, is pulling the strings in order to try and push more people to use Windows 11.
