This is the same false analogy people make as to why Americans drive giant trucks to shift blame... it's not the manufacturers who are pushing these cars to circumvent taxes, it is the users for demanding it.

Very few people actually like these invasive shit Microsoft pulls, but the vast majority either do not know about them, understand them or feel they have another choice. For example, I hate MS, I understand what dog shit this Recall feature is, yet my job will provide a Windows machine with it and I have no choice but to use it.

I am a nerd so at home I do have everything running on Linux. But for the majority of people that would be a unknown option or just an unobtainable one

An authoritarian too cocky/arrogant/stupid to disguise their views

True, but I don't think Keanu here is giving career advancement advice

This is not a good deal. First of all I highly doubt this mobo and CPU will be Windows 11 compatible so you're out of luck there.

That's a feature lol

For $373 you can find an AMD Ryzen 5 7600X and mobo combo deal that will vastly outperform this Chinese CPU

Really? I'm actually asking because I don't think you can get the amd combo you mentioned at that price. Also, we'd need to confirm the specs and performance. So far it would be just speculation

Less than $400 for mobo, cpu and fan is not expensive even if it's a couple of gens behind

Exactly... I have regular buds for running and I hate them because they inevitably shift around a bit and , when I try to get them back in place, they start misinterpreting my touch with whatever touch command they were preprogrammed

These ideas sound nice in the brainstorming room but, in my experience, have rarely panned out in practice

So it can get to the Supreme Court and be overturned there?

How is Trump going to improve anything for your example demographic?

You keep pretending there is logic there yet have shown no logical path there

It's not a matter of empathy... If each day is torture under status quo, how is going under a regime promising to make it worse a better option?

But again, maybe Biden is the status quo which is not great I admit, but Trump is torture then death... How is that even a "close" call to make?

Exactly right

Nobody represents the people, but that's not a new problem nor, in anyway, a new thing in this Trump era

My biggest fear is that the USA always gets to chose someone who does not represent them at all but at least had the notion that we need a planet to live in

Trump is a man child and will see the world burn out of petty spite. And us, in the rest of the world, would have to still live with those consequences

So back to the debate and the choice between Biden and Trump... Sure Biden is a terrible option, like chosing to get cancer... But Trump is like chosing to be gang raped, shot and left for dead in an open sewer and here we are pretending the 2 bad options are somehow the same
