Agreed, except the last part. Harris would at least try to keep Israel in check to make it seem the US has some kind of moral high ground. Trump doesn't care about morals and even less about gazans.

And now the people in Gaza are really fucked. I predict as soon as the Trump administration takes office, Israel will start colonizing Gaza and the West Bank and no one will stop them.

I was answering a technical question on Reddit last night when I realized that, while it might help the person asking it, I am also fueling Reddits profits, training AI, and supporting a big American corporation by providing free knowledge.

So I reconsidered and I deleted the answer I was writing.

I will use my reddit account read only from now. No more upvotes, no more downvotes, no more comments. AdBlock enabled using Firefox for all sites. I already use Linux instead of Microsoft. I don't have Facebook or Instagram. I de-googled my online accounts and e-mail and moved my domains and e-mail to a Swiss company. I drive German cars. I will consciously start vetting my purchases to be not from the US or China. I will buy local as much as I can. When I build software, I will not host it on Google or azure or aws. I'm looking at nextcloud for my next pet project.

The list is growing, and every little item I can add to it gives me a little more satisfaction and peace of mind.

Why are they removing support though?

I am scared to Google "electroplay".

Don't forget the cleanest air in decades. The lockdowns definitely had their upsides, but we forget fast.

I assume you have heard of An idiot abroad?

It's a comedy, I think a lot of the misery is acted, but fun nonetheless.

Give them to them now. Let's see if Russia is still so eager to invade then.

Never forget. I still blame Rutte for not sending over Marines immediately to secure the crash site. But indeed, revenge is best served hot.

Exactly this. He made an offer publicly, which was accepted and legally binding. He overpaid substantially and proceeded to run the company into the ground.

He looks more intelligent than most project managers.
