I hope they lose billions on this deal. I know I'm only going with AMD now. It's not much, but I do buy all the tech for my company. Servers, laptops, etc... will all be AMD going forward.

Cancelled my years long subscription today. Any company that bows down to tRump should be avoided. Vote with your wallet.

If it ever gets to this point, I have a ton of books to read. I just won't use a computer anymore. You'll find me under a tree in a park reading 1984.

The US no longer sees the US as a trustworthy partner.

remember when Tim Apple gifted tRump a golden statue? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

I had a short convo with a check out girl at Staples the day before election day. She saw my "I voted" sticker on my phone and started talking about how she was voting trump after work today because "we can't give the white house to Biden again" She looked confused when I told her Biden wasn't even running. The DNC fucked us. They waited too long to replace him and some people didn't even know Harris was an option. They tried to prop up a corpse and then changed at the last minute. I voted for Harris but I knew she didn't stand a chance.

"ICE arrests black man for existing while black." There, fixed the headline.

Both sides do suck. but only one is trying to get an orange dictator elected. I'm still voting Biden. Democrats aren't perfect but it's the only choice we have.

I live in a small town in the SE US. I bought my house for $89,900, 12ish years ago. There are 3 vacant houses on my street and they are all listed for $250,00 or more. My house is bigger than all of them. They have all been empty for over a year.

DDG's AI is actually pretty good. I've used it several times and it's always helpful. But I like that they let you turn it off.

give me buttons and dials, not touch screens and ai. I want to drive, not check social media. I'll be keeping my 2009 until the engine locks up.

mastodon has porn and you don't even need an account to use search. also, this will just drive people to use sketchy sites that won't follow the rules.

I've been on reddit since the fall of digg. It was a wild time that's for sure.

first lady trump is big mad!

I made https://lite.duckduckgo.com/ my homepage. No AI and super fast loading. AI would be fine if it was opt-in. Shoving it into everything to see what works just makes people hate it. Looking at you MS.

I honestly can't remember the last time I saw an ad. pi-hole + ublock origin. Never see them at all.

if you let the rich ones in, they will turn it into New America. and you'll have your own orange dick tater to deal with.

haha, still doing the "face down look up, don't you see how intense I am?" stare. pure cringe elonia. I remember doing that in middle school when I was a super hard core bad ass that you better not mess with! :D
