in the last decade or so

“or so” is lifting a lot there, like a couple more decades.

Not that I’m disagreeing with you; rather, a “yes, but also”. heh. :/

Y’know, if that’s true… I can’t afford a new computer. I just got one last year after almost a decade of using my last box. I was lucky that this one runs 11 - I’m not anti-Microsoft - I like Linux and Windows… but I’ve been perfectly happy with 11 (maybe just lucky, but none of the problems I’ve heard others having).

But yeah, if this box won’t run 12, I will be staying on 11 until I can’t, and then that’ll push me to Linux. I could switch now, jsut about, but a few little things that run better with Windows for me. But I could survive under Linux if I needed to.

Basically, I’ve never been a big Microsoft apologist, but man… that would kill it for me.

Not that they care. They care about corporate uses, not home users. Which is why you can find any number of ways to get your Windows for free these days. They gave up on the consumer market.

Do you think every place in the Middle East is at war? Dude, that’s like saying every place in Africa is in poverty and starving. It’s a big place.

And what about all the tourists propping up the US with tourism dollars, supporting a warmonger country? If you want to play Silly Buggers about the whole thing…

This is what I came to the comments to gripe about this whole thing. Yes, they can play some games and probably will, but consider: People will be watching. They do this and you bet people will track this crap and post about it. The blowback will be huge.

If they’re stupid enough to try this, it will not last. lol. You can raise prices over the long term, but fuck around with short term prices people can see changing for no good reason? Yeah…

And on the “personal pricing” - that’s written by someone that doesn’t understand how barcodes work.

But I’m sure they will try to play some games with it.

Is that where you graduated college? ;-) (sorry, couldn’t resist, but just being silly)

I have a little experience on Glenn Beck.

What sparked that was Glenn Beck asking the first sitting Muslim member of Congress, Keith Ellison: “Now, I wouldn’t say this, but some of my listeners might like to ask you: ‘Are you working for our enemies?’”.

Bear in mind that this was in a time when politicians were not openly working for Russia, so the idea of asking a sitting member of the House of Representatives if he was “working for our enemies” was galling. But it was Beck’s technique of “Oh, I’m not saying, this, rather, ‘it is being said by some unspecified people’” to weasel out of it being him saying it.

That said, I have avoided Rogan completely, so cannot speak directly to his particular brand of bullshit.

I listened to 170 hours of Joe Rogan’s podcast

Why would anyone want to torture themselves like that? o.O

Malice would be if they could do the jobs but refused. Incompetence stems from malicious removals, but it is incompetence because the people working are, in fact, incapable of doing the job.

It wasn’t a war zone until we attacked Iran…

I’m just going to beleive this comment is spelled pourly, because I’m also tired of releazing some people are this bad at spalling. ;-)

Awww, that’s a really nice cake, too. Excellent drawing and writing skills! Not so much on the spelling skills, though… :)

There’s a joke about the epstein files in there I ain’t gonna make… but it’s there.

I think studies from almost a hundred years ago show that the people with the guns do not fare well gunning down large numbers of people and it’s inefficient. I think they came up with some higher efficiency methods…

Two weeks, he’ll be bored.

Gets me every damn time

As someone who has gotten banned by the admins for stupid reasons that should have been overturned but weren’t… Having a new account is a pain in the ass for a couple of months and/or until you build up karma.

It’s stupidly painful.

You gotta be hearing us in your dreams, man, come on, man, wakf09234r 5tKT23 #:$LT #$@# $J% $R# $J#$DO NOT CHANGE HORSES MIDSTREAM. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KEEP TRUMP IN POWER SO THE WORLD IS SAFE AND PEACEFUL. DO NOT VOTE AGAINST TRUMP OR WE WILL DO BAD THINGS TO YOU. AGAIN. DON’T YOU REMEMBER? DON’T YOU REMEMBER THE LAST TIME?

yeah, I hate that “EVERYTHING IS A DISTRACTION!!!” now.

It’s fucking NOT. I’m sure they ARE trying to do some things as distractions, but most of it is just simply evil.
