The o’l

They’re only guilty if they’re people I don’t like.

That’s kool aid from Jeep back in the day to discredit the Samurai as unfit.

and it worked

It was fine though, for its time, the Samurai didn’t flip any worse than anything else.

Not if you think about it longer than two minutes.

Apple has to protect their IP, brand, their own information and their reputation. My identity and professional information is safe behind an iPhone, because they have to be for themselves.

My actual friends, actual social media activity, anarchism, socialist views, contacts, lol, even any discussion had here will never see that screen, no xmpp client, no tor, no yggdrasil, so, who cares what I order pizza and reserve parking spots with?

Yeah, I’m sick of it too, I’m a regular THC user and this round, I may bite the bullet and quit entirely. Fuck this entire country.

no one tell him about November

In November 2025, Congress passed H.R. 5371, which rewrites the federal definition of hemp to use total THC instead of just delta-9. This means THCA — which converts to delta-9 when heated — now counts toward the legal threshold. The law also caps finished products at just 0.4mg total THC per container, which would make even a single 5mg gummy illegal.

What Products Are Affected?

• THCA flower — Raw hemp flower that converts to THC when smoked or vaped. Sales have surged 340% since 2024.
• Delta-8 and delta-10 THC products — The gas station gummies and vapes that exploded in popularity.
• Hemp-derived delta-9 gummies and edibles — The legal edibles sold at cannabis cafes and online.
• HHC products — Synthesized from hemp-derived CBD.
• THC beverages — Infused seltzers, coffees, and lemonades.

I don’t trust any of them, and I don’t trust Motorola.

My next phone will be an Iphone, treated like an appliance; no more info given than necessary to order a pizza, call my boss, navigate this dystopian wasteland, and see how much fiat is in my wageslave account.

Time to kick it like it’s 2007.

Are we seriously suggesting even with half a grain of salt that Samsung wouldn’t do the very same?

Google’s just the first house on the street, they’ll all gladly snitch on you.

“What music? It was all a bluff.”

Mine’s okay, the two little contact idea they had is finicky but a little jiggle and it’s good, I do keep the contacts clean, little rubbing alcohol.

I use a Surface Pro 6, I know of a guy with an 8 on Fedora. Mine’s on Cachy with Gnome.

There is a custom kernel you may need to get, https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface

The slightly older ones make great Linux tablets. I use mine for comics.

Boo hoo?

drives off in his Civic Si with multiple possible engine swap possibilities without even changing the ECU

I have enough set aside to make it the Civic Si of Theseus when I’m 72.

/me pushes his chips forward

Let it ride. If gas doesn’t pan out even WORSE to where Civic drivers are scrounging, I’ll scrap it and drop what I’m holding on an EV, until then!

A switch and you’re all good, fam.

Buy a single-board x86 or ARM PC with more than one ethernet port on it and install openwrt, or opn/pfsense on it depending on your sensibilities and enjoy.

I use an OpenWRT ONE router, it’s a BananaPi with OpenWRT on it.

Update and reboot regularly, don’t get behind.

/me looks your post up and down

Welp, added to the “list of ass”, right below Brave and ProtonMail.

Everyone sucks, build your own router or depend on the enshitty options at your local ScamN’Shop.

what about the average consumer?

He’s fucked.

We didn’t get up when we found out he was a pedophile. That ship kinda sailed.
