He’d be a hero who got fucked by tariffs. Instead he’s a villain who got fucked by tariffs.

In an alternate universe where the world is logical, insurrections are terrorism and firebombing teslas is patriotism.

Current wanted level by the police would be quite handy

That’s ok, I’ll just disagree with their Terms of Service!

Good news, its range is 150 miles.

The majority of the Supreme Court is in Trump’s back pocket, there will be no actions or repercussions.

I think your whole post supported my point….

Well pick it back up and take it with you, because this issue has nothing to do with privacy. All major vendors take advantage of evil shit to produce their goods.

Agreed; unfortunately, this will always happen as long as money is allowed in politics.

As predicted, here come all the purity tests.

I know there’s no way to definitively prove it, but in my mind Apple is the safer alternative vs. anything Google. I know you can do custom roms and all that, but let’s face it: It’s a huge pain in the ass. I know, I know, “It’s not really”… I beg to differ. I went through my purity phase with degoogled roms and all that. Due to driver inconsistencies, updates breaking things (even the phone part), and the inability to use a lot of “normal” apps, I gave up and went with an iPhone. Apple’s business model is to sell you the thing at a higher price, thus reducing the incentive to sell your data or enshittify. Yes, that will degrade over time and I’ll reach a threshold at which I’ll reevaluate my options. Given the two major choices, I choose the less terrible ecosystem of the two.

I refuse to have any Google or Meta products on my iPhone. I know that makes me lame here, but we should also understand that any normie would never go to all the trouble of OS tinkering. The are a lot more people who want to degoogle vs. the people who understand how to do rom flashing. Criticizing a person’s degoogle effort as “not good enough” does nothing but drive people directly into the arms of the very evil we wish to diminish. This is a community to banish Google, not everything backed by a for-profit corporation.

Carvana, carmax, etc.

I did

At this point, I’m sure the plan is to let the HW3 cars age out before they could provide the upgrade. It worked on me, I sold my car a month ago without ever getting what I paid for. I look forward to joining the class action suit, but I doubt I’ll ever see a dime in compensation.

Sort by controversial?

“Let’s not make this political”… the calling card of the embarrassed conservative.

Richest country… for now

Absolutely, I do. You have been paying Google: with your privacy, viewing tons of ads, and manipulation via rigged search results. Fixing that is worth the price to me. I admit it requires a shift in mindset, but I couldn’t go back now.

People keep pushing Kagi because they love it. I know, I’m one of them. Anybody acting like there’s no way out of google’s clutches is following the “we’ve tried nothing, and we’re all out of ideas” mantra.

There’s still plenty of blood to drain out of that corpse, just like facebook. They’re a punchline to anyone who knows the internet, but a staple of boomers now. Thing is, shoveling ai slop with ads to ignorant boomers has proven to be quite profitable.
