  • Apple CEO Tim Cook gives 24-karat gold gift to Donald Trump

    Jump

  • I don't know, I mean if any corporation can eat the loss, it's apple with their insanely high margins.

    I'm more inclined to believe there's some form of quid pro quo going on behind the scenes.

    Besides, I simply cannot picture Tim Apple as any kind of a hero in this picture. No way he got bullied. He's getting something out of it. You scratch my back. I'll scratch yours.

  • Energy chief suggests Trump administration is altering previously published climate reports

    Jump

  • Best guess I have is that it's similar to the kid at the playground who doesn't get their way, so they take their ball home so no one else can play.

    Only these worthless fucks have decided they own the world, and since we won't willingly lick the shit out of their asses, they're gonna try and kill the entire ecosystem.

  • Republican says state's GDP has plunged 6% due to trade war—'Troubled time'

    Jump

  • You know what keeps me up at night? Democrats get elected into power and just leave shit all broken. I mean, sorry to say but that is the pattern we've seen from them for decades now.

    Now, please don't get me wrong, I am NOT saying "both sides same, blah blah". I just don't really believe there's anyone in the Capitol who is actually fighting for me anymore, save perhaps a tiny few who have no realistic chance to help. Not Bernie's fault they fucked him over, for example, and I have mad respect for him. But one man, maybe one or two allies, standing in front of this wave of irrational hatred? We're fucked.

  • ICE detainee found hanging by neck in detention facility, agency says

    Jump

  • Also, if you actually to want to die, you don't to be found and rescued, so in your cell or somewhere else your gonna not be noticed.

    So, yeah. Also, a guy that has all those stolen cards is motivated as hell to run that many cons. Not to mention the way suicide would stain family honor for most oriental cultures.

    Etc,etc...

  • OMG. Yeah, I'm leaving that just the way it is!!

  • Maybe. Or maybe not.

    There was no explanation as to how they eliminated any possibility of foul play. Just a mention of a handwritten note, and the assurances of fascists that there is no reason to suspect them.

    It just seems, I dunno, fishy. Shower room instead of in his cell, for instance. But either way there's not really any way to prove it. It's just i guess the first thing in my mind was they cornered him in the shower area, and quickly scribbled down a success note knowing there will not ever be even an investigation. But I'm making plenty of assumptions, so...

    Very tragic. Another senseless casualty to this hate filled movement by fuckers who can't handle being afraid of the fact that they don't actually matter in this world. 🤬🤮

  • Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet?

    Jump

  • Well, yes, but actually no. At least in theory. Since it has a Wi-Fi antenna, a bad actor could connect wirelessly to it.

    Likely to happen? I having the foggiest idea but I doubt it. Yeah, I'm paranoid. But I'm part of the generation that grew up with the invention of the internet. So can you really blame me?

    Edit: I did have a neighbor once that would learn how to wirelessly hack into anything in my apartment that had a signal to do shit like stream porn to my TV or obnoxious music to my soundbar, junk like that just to piss me off. Then one day I discovered that he had managed to spoof my Spotify credentials and was accessing my account. How did I kno? he started adding his own favorites to my account! That same day I totally logged everything out of my Spotify, but I also went through and did my best to learn how to absolutely lock down everything that even had so much as a Bluetooth antenna...

    Second edit: DO NOT install YouTube on a fucking Xbox. Like ever! Anybody who successfully connects to the same Wi-Fi network immediately gets access to stream whatever YouTube content they want to your Xbox and the stupid app will take over the screen so you get kicked out of your game and now whatever crap someone wanted to stream to your Xboxes playing on your TV. And worse last I checked there was no way at all to disable this.

  • I can't believe we left him behind like that.

    Jump

  • Why did you make me feel so old...

    ಠ_ಠ

  • I can't believe we left him behind like that.

  • I never really used the sure much myself, but if I recall correctly their while schtick was that you could just write out a question in plain English to search the web, as opposed to AltaVista and early days of Google where you would want to do a keyword search instead to get good results.

    But, then again, I never really used it so I could be misremembering things...

  • Australia worried by Trump threat to raise U.S. pharma tariffs to 250%

    Jump

  • Every action taken by our President Tiny Dick is, in a word, shit. However, amongst a stinking pile of nothing but shit, this one stinks to high heaven. It's a well known fact we get charging fucking way too much for anything healthcare related, especially pharmaceuticals. And now we're even more fucked. All because everyone in the world knows that of all the world leaders that have ever lived, or will live, his dick is by far the tiniest. 🤬🤮

    Edit: Please don't make me eat (more) shit, btw! I mean, c'mon, just look at how much shit this jackass is forcing down our throats already. 😔

  • Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet?

    Jump

  • So I know for sure is avoid Roku like the plague! You cannot use it as a TV at all without a connection and creating an account.

  • Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet?

    Jump

  • Well, the program is that the computer in my TV is a potential security issue. That said, there's no way of knowing if I can trust updates to patch problems or create new ones, so... ¯(ツ)/¯

  • Trump orders destruction of CO2 measure satelites

    Jump

  • You'll really go to any extent possible to avoid the idea of solidarity, won't you?

    So whatever you win I guess? Since that apparently is all you seem to care about, which is just ludicrous and bizarre. So go on with your bad self. Or something?

    Weirdo

  • Trump orders destruction of CO2 measure satelites

    Jump

  • Hmmm, obviously there no possible way that was, you know, specifically to demonstrate my point.. Nah!

    But, did you read the last paragraph even? Like, what's solidarity and avoiding unnecessary divisive rhetoric for to do with blame, anyway?

    Seriously, though, if we all didn't start channeling the rage at the people who are actually destroying things, what's even the point??

  • Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet?

    Jump

  • Eh, I've always been paranoid about firmware patches and the like. Also, curiosity got the better of me; I had to see what the crap smart features were like.

    You do make a very good point though!

  • Trump orders destruction of CO2 measure satelites

    Jump

  • You got a counter argument, or are you just gonna pout?

  • Trump orders destruction of CO2 measure satelites

    Jump

  • I'll never understand the whole assigning blame routine. Blame isn't a solution. It doesn't fix a damn thing to know whose fault it is. If you want to solve the problem, figuring out who to blame is nothing but a waste of time and energy.

    That said, you're wrong. There's plenty of people and organizations to blame, from Rupert Murdock to the Heritage Foundation and beyond. Did refusing to vote for Harris help? Of course not. But this didn't fucking start with "enlightened liberals" (which is a complete useless term, btw; why the fuck is everyone got such a hard-on for calling people liberals, anyway?).

    Besides, all your doing here is playing into the divisive rhetoric. Our only chance is solidarity amongst the working class, and this bullshit ain't helping. Well, no, I guess if I'm going to be honest here it does help the sociopathic oligarchs maintain control. So congratulations - you're fighting for the wrong fucking side.

  • Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet?

    Jump

  • Yes. I connected mine, checked for updates, then factory reset it and did not enter any network login.

    This only works on certain brands I'm afraid...

  • Society is getting sick of selfish "Conservative values"

    Jump

  • Gotcha. Sounds relatively easy to verify, but eh, personally I'm inclined to believe you. And fits his entitled attitude for sure!
