They may be able to order the finance people to do it.

I’d be happy for chrome to collapse and go away entirely.

You don’t get ads. You pay less than double what two premiums cost and your household can share.

It’s probably not personally affecting enough of them yet.

Would you believe that it is the favorite “Mexican” restaurant in the country?

You remind me of when I moved to Argentina. I had a laptop whose fan suddenly froze but I was too broke to get a computer so I figured out that if I put it in JUST THE RIGHT spot next to a fan, it would get enough passive cooling to work. Then I did the silly and decided to upgrade, which made me have to plug in Ethernet. It took me ages to get the computer back in the right spot so that it wouldn’t power off due to overheating. All for WiFi…

The moral here is not to do public bathroom hookups in Indonesia.

There’s something special about WiFi, but it is better than it used to be. I think it depends on your hardware more than anything. Any chance you can connect up to Ethernet in the meantime? You may be able to plug directly into a switch/router.

You will learn SO MUCH about computers by just trying to make your wifi or some other thing work. And then you will never have trouble with that thing again. I remember having to do wrapping of drivers, but I don’t know if that is still a thing.

Honestly, did they think there would not be repercussions? This isn’t a university sit-in or occupying city hall.

The funny part is that there was a lot of propaganda. Example: no taxation without representation was actually false. The population in the UK was much higher than in the colonies, and since the colonies had members in parliament, they actually had a higher level of representation than other citizens.

But even back then, the UK was a democracy. The US took a look back at ancient Greece and combined that with a lot of 18th century philosophy to make the government we see today.

They basically ran up and said "Hey we are liberating ourselves from the British. How about we help you do the same and with the French too and then we can all be one happy family. The Canadians did a “nah, that’s all right, thanks” and walked away.

Honestly I believe that the US would have been in a better place if we remained like Canada or Australia. We could have avoided hundreds of years of bullshit.

Yeah this was hilarious hubris. The Yanks believed that everyone thought as they did.

You could say the same about Australia and Jamaica being part of the British Commonwealth. Historical politics is complex.

You see, Zionists get angry when you point out that Arabs are Semites. It ruins their narrative, causing them to violently lash out at you.

No humans are involved in reviewing these. They go into the memory hole and that’s that.

This is silly. Google doesn’t give a single fuck. This decision will make money for key players and that’s the end of the conversation.

Everything I could find that was of higher quality, I downloaded over time. I have some bootlegs though along with some music I’ve found from no other sources. I’ll never replace some of it, but that’s fine.

I can’t possibly calculate how many hours I spent curating my music library. I don’t use it anymore but you better bet that I still have it saved to the cloud and locally and it’s there in case I need it.

Some of this stuff I downloaded off the original Napster.
