  • Hi. I’m not the person you responded to, but up until about 8 months ago I was on Windows 7. You know how I didn’t deal with new updates and various things? By not having updated anything since about 2012. Maybe 2013? I legitimately have zero clue if I had firewall on or off for 10 years. I remember I had some issue in 2014. I remember turning it off, and that solved the issue. But I don’t remember, and also never cared, if I turned it back on.

    You guys are SO worried you’ll get a virus. And update everything. Meanwhile the ONLY reason I started using linux is because I don’t like Windows 10. And firefox on Windows 7 finally got so out of date that websites refused to display things. Otherwise, I’d still be on Windows 7.

    Point is, updates don’t matter. Security doesn’t matter. You can just tell your computer to never update anything, and it’ll be the same for a decade. You can live in your little bubble.



















  • Me personally, I believe protesting doesn’t work without mass violence against those in power against your protest.

    You think 4 billion people sitting peacefully in a park with signs and chants affects trump at all? Fuck no.

    You show up with 200,000 angry fuckers with guns on his doorstep, and NOW he’s thinking about doing some kind of change.

    United Health Care was planning on ending it’s coverage for anestesia. Now you’d have to pay, and pay a LOT. The business plan was "Pay us shitloads of money that you can’t afford, or feel the knife cutting you open during surgury. Your call.

    Then Brian Thompson gets shot. Literally the next day United Health Care announced they would not follow through on their previously announced ceasure of anestesia coverage. They would remain covering it. Why? Because the board of suits asked “Am I next?”

    Now ask yourself. If Luigi just held a sign in a park, and Brian Thompson were still alive, would you be able to afford anastesia today?
