That’s what it’s become. But, hear me out, what if I want the hardware without the software? Tough luck? Both are so tied together that if the company pulls the rug you don’t have reasonable access to the hardware.

I don’t want to cook after I get home from work. From scratch, doubly so.

Yeah it’s way more work to have to clean up unless you don’t mind your bathroom smelling of piss.

It’s like they’re drawn to the warmth of a book burning.

We need more FOSS. If our governments weren’t utterly captured we could publicly fund worthwhile projects.

Self immolation protest should be reserved for deaf ears and as a very last resort. This guy did not need to do this as everyone knows this is a bloody genocide whether you’re for it or not. The lines have already been set and his death won’t invoke any change of mind.

Hey, leave asking questions to Tucker, Putins buttbuddy
