  • What do you mean it's not $139.00 for an OS?

  • Macroslop Wangblows: pay $139 for OS, get locked in, don't learn anything, get abused, get exploited

    Gigachad Linux: invest time, become smarter, become more independent, help fight enshittification, help your country's tech Independence, help the OS get better, help distribute real improvements to other users, etc

    She added that her government seeks to "diplomatically solve everything related to the oil shipments (to Cuba) for humanitarian reasons."

  • I had a Model 3 for several years. I didn't find the quality that great. I actually was surprised how average/slightly shitty it was. The interior of my Kia Niro is way nicer than my Model 3 interior was. Everything feels way more premium on the Niro.

    In terms of software, again, my Model 3 wasn't that great. I constantly had problems with the screen bugging out. Sometimes I couldn't adjust the air, sometimes ghost cars would appear around me while I was parked, the cars would be twitching out. The worst was when I was driving on a highway, going like 120km/h, and then the whole damn car decides to reboot. Luckily, I was able to continue driving, but the speedometer was gone, the air started blasting (and I couldn't control it), the radio was stuck (I couldn't control it).

    Yes, the Tesla touchscreen was high res and responsive, but so are modern cars now. I have a Kia Niro with a fantastic screen, high res, responsive, and I can use Android Auto. The interior build quality is also way better than the Model 3 was. I also have an Hyundai Ionic 6, which also has a great screen, also allows Android Auto.

    Both the Niro and the Ionic 6 have pretty comparable drive assist features too. Tesla may still be ahead, technically, but other car manufacturers have closed the gap significantly.

    I don't miss Tesla at all.

  • Hyundai Ionic 6 (sedan) or Ionic 5 (suv). I have the Ionic 6. It's great! Even better than my old Model 3 because I can use Android Auto. AND I haven't had the 6 reboot on me during highway driving.

    (My Model 3 once rebooted while I was driving on the highway.)

  • Do you use Arch btw? Best Arch distro?

    Jump

  • Arch, on well supported hardware. That means no Nvidia. No Ultra 5 series CPUs.

    Should I be trying to leave the USA before it's too late?

    Jump

  • I don’t really see a future of leaving unless they actualy start doing the “internment” stuff, this ICE thing is not “dangerous enough”

    That's the point of OP's question. How bad is it gonna get? Should people start preparing to leave now? As you said, the process takes a while. By the time they start going door to door in Philly, dragging non-whites to interment camps, that's a wrap. You waited too long to get out.

    I get the allure of American Exceptionalism, thinking "Nah, this can't happen here." On the other hand, shit keeps getting worse and growing.

    I can't tell the future. Maybe things start getting better after mid-terms. Maybe Trump peacefully transfers power at the end of his term.

    I feel like at least doing a little research into immigrating to another country is a responsible thing to do. IF things get bad enough, I want to have more or less an idea of where to go and how to do it.

  • A maga person has just threatened my family, what's to do next?

    Jump

  • He probably found your info online through a data broker. Everyone's info is pretty available on any search engine...

    I had a similar situation once. I signed up for Optery to try to delete all of my info. It worked. Also, keep in mind that you can be tracked via family. So you might delete your data, but some of your info may still be available if they're able to look up any family members.

    This also works in reverse though! If you have any of his info, you can look him up on various data broker sites.

    Also, I invested in an alarm system, cameras to sleep better at night. Slept with my phone near and I bought some pepper spray and a bat.

  • Sludge built an interactive map of every ICE contractor working with the Trump administration

    Jump

  • Even better than dealing with a paywall, then trying to click around on a map, go directly to the source:

    https://www.usaspending.gov/search

    Search for your company by filtering by "Recipient" on the left-hand sidebar.

    You can also filter by the government agency under "Agency".

    I found one company on usaspending.gov that I was interviewing for last year.... thank fucking zeus that I didn't pass that interview!

    Right... because it was only a problem because you're Asian... the stop would have been fine if you were actually Mexican... gee thanks.

  • Whoever invented the 12-hour clock never doubted that people will always know if it's day or night

    Jump

  • I think most people in the US don't travel to other countries, so they almost never see a 24h clock. Whenever, we do see 24h time, most people call it "military time", probably cuz of movies or something.

  • The epiphany hits hard

    Jump

  • If it's really something you care about, I'd suggest:

    • switch your computer, phone, etc to your native language
    • look up famous authors, books written in your native language and read them
    • torrent media in your native language (see fmhy for example) (bonus non-english torrents could use more help seeding)
    • talk/share with your parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc more
    • take more vacation in your parent's previous country

    Personally, this is something I struggle with. I'm brown, don't have an English sounding name (nor do I want one), and I was born in the USA, yet I've never felt welcomed here and have always felt like a guest in my own country. Especially right now with all the ICE shit, it's very clear that even though I was born in the USA, I will never be considered Unitedstatian.

    My family, native language, and culture provide some relief.
