Don't like it? Switch.

Oh come on.

We've been saying "Thanks, Biden!" for years as a joke, and you blue haired legbeards always got riled up with your "source????" and "citation needed???" cries.

(FWIW I don't support Trump and have never voted Republican).

This is such cry-baby nonsense.

NONSENSE.

Since 2008, I have personally mentored dozens of young dudes (at no cost whatsoever, just because that's what successful people do).

I have helped poor dudes in bad neighborhoods buck up, get some side hustles, stack cash, and buy property.

You fucked yourself because you refuse to actually do someone to buy property. I don't know ANYONE, starting with even zero money, who couldn't find a nice home in just 2-3 years of saving money properly -- except the lepers in California, and fuck them anyway.

I would rather let Nazis speak and elect to block them myself than have an entire moderation team block everyone they disagree with.

Reddit is equally a shithole.

Heck. /. used to have a good libertarian minority and today it's nerds defending their trans kids here.

>Unemployment benefits are paid by a state unemployment insurance fund, not by companies.

While you're technically correct, where I am, the company's UI tax is based on their history of unemployment claims. The more claims they've had, the more tax they pay. So your implication that firing vs. resigning makes no difference to the company is wrong.

If I've got nothing to hide, the government has no business spying on me.

I would prefer to replace myself, yes.

I have a 37 year work history of finding ways to replace myself and folks like me. I already offer my clients free Ai consulting on the side to help them replace me. I'm already onto the "next thing" that will replace Ai in the headlines anyway.

I don't own a computer. I am not a programmer. I do everything from my iPhone.

In the past 10 years, I have spent tens of thousands of dollars on human programmers to create 3 web apps. Zero of them ever were finished. ZERO.

I used Grok AI to create 5 web apps. 3 of them were monetized almost immediately and have paying clients. All 5 have passed security checks that look for bugs or hack entry points.

One of the 3 monetized web apps took me all of 30 minutes using Grok, on an airplane, using my iPhone. I was able to download the files and upload them to a web server and the site was live. Literally 30 minutes and that website has created thousands of dollars of passive income.

I use vibe coding DAILY to make spreadsheets better for me and clients (I am not in IT). I use vibe coding DAILY to come up with cool functions for my web apps that people pay me to use.

LOL. Found the person who gets their news from MSNBC.

Or last Friday, and people just noticed.

I almost wonder if that's actually a dude who was on the flight or someone taking advantage of an opportunity to get in the news.

Seems so unlikely.

>For the record, I have an /e/OS phone.

So you know nothing about Android. Android gives users a true choice, they can leave a setting at its default and only get apps from "the protected garden" of Google's Play Store, or they can choose to flip a switch which enables installing apps from elsewhere. User's choice.

>discarding any instances in which an error occurred. ... at these later stages, none of the remaining instances were in an erroneous state.

And I've made about a billion dollars in the stock market, if I only count the gains and not the losses.

If the system can be bypassed with simple accounting tricks, then it's the system which is broken.

Apple obviously doesn't trust their users to make good decisions. For some reason, they think they're all suckers for a scam.
